A Review from Heather for Sleeves by Chanse Lowell


Sleeves by Chanse Lowell




Heather's Review:

April 12th, 2023

“Casey, you have to come,” her friend, Jana said, tugging on her arm as they walked
through the parking lot after work.
“No thanks,” Casey replied, sighing as the warm air hit her from the outside,
melting the chill away from her cold office.
What was the big deal? Why did they keep hounding her about this particular
club?
“Oh my God! You’re not honestly scared of this, are you?” Jana stared at her with
her baby-blues like Casey was being ridiculous and then she tightened her ponytail,
making sure her sandy blonde hair looked flawless as usual.
“No—why would I be?” Casey’s forehead creased and she turned away. “I’m just
tired. It was a shitty day at work, that’s all.”
“This man has a monster cock, and he lets the women touch it and play with it,”
Maddie said, fanning herself. “We have to sign something before they even let us into
the club.”
“Fine. One drink, but that’s it. And I’m not touching that man.”
And after that night, Casey’s life would never be the same again.  As a lifelong fan of science fiction, I found this story to be very intriguing.  We follow Kel as he tries to break free of a past he’s hiding from when he meets Casey that fateful night in his club.  None of their lives will ever be the same again.  We are taken on a ride of sexual pleasure as well as character torture and discovery all at the same time in this story.  Despite Casey’s determination to not have anything to do with Kel, she finds herself on stage in his cage and she is immediately drawn to him.  But she sees something in him where every other woman only sees a sexual prize.
As we learn more about Kel’s past we end up with more questions that are needing answers.  And the journey the author takes us on to discover those answers, is filled with twists and turns, potholes, ups and downs, starts and stops.  It is a journey that is only for those 18 and over.  If you love a good mystery that is a touch fantastical and yet scarily plausible in this age of gene exploration laced with amazing eroticism, then this is definitely the book for you.

About the Author:

     Chanse Lowell grew up in the desert southwest and still lives there with her husband,
children, and pet cactus. She’s addicted to three things: reading erotica, writing erotica
and sandwiches with a side of erotica to aid with digestion. She grew up watching
programs with science fiction and historical fiction themes, and is determined she can
combine her three favorite genres, creating a new breed of novel with scifi, historical
and smut sandwiched in the middle.

     The last thing she ever thought she’d do was pursue her dream to be a writer since her
family tends to keep her busy. When she was introduced to fan fiction, she realized she
wanted to see more science fiction and historical fiction to fill in the gap with lots of
naughtiness thrown in, of course. Her true passion is creating her own worlds from
scratch, letting her imagination go and take her to another place.

     She has two novels coming out soon, Sleeves a science fiction erotica and Knots, a
contemporary BDSM that shows the softer, tender side of a Dom/sub relationship.

     Having recently entered the lifestyle and discovering she’s a submissive herself has
opened her eyes to how few stories there are exploring the softer side of the lifestyle. She enjoys chatting online with others with similar kinky interests and has advisers in
the lifestyle that help make sure her stories remain true and don’t veer off into outer
space. Although aliens probably enjoy kink, too, since they like to dress in rubber fetishwear
while traveling. At least that’s her argument for why her new genre she’s created is
valid.

Heart of Glass by L.J. Harris

Heath has only recently had the courage to admit his true self, walking away from his marriage and a good job when he could no longer lie to himself. The attraction he feels for a stranger that fleetingly crossed his path confirms he made the right choice.

Will Zack be the one to mend Heath’s heart of glass?

Excerpt:
Some parts of my New York life were the same. The main thing being that my dear friends Lorna and Bradley were still a big part of my life. Charlie and I now lived in his stunning penthouse flat together in Brooklyn. By far, the best part about living there was waking up every morning in Charlie arms with the New York skyline surrounding us. I always felt as if I was home.
Luckily, I had seen nothing of the Field family; my mother made sure of that. I could only imagine what she must have said to them in their board meeting once we left our island. A few months later, I noticed the Fields lost a lot of stock in some unstable deal, which would have cost them dearly. I had a feeling my mother was making her point.
The only major change in New York was my high powered job and how much I loved it.
Charlie had been right, and I threw myself into making Headcom the best marketing front line company New York had ever seen. Contracts were coming in from all over the world. As the workload began to double, I took Lorna on as my Assistant Director. She almost squashed me to death in celebration.
“No way! Are you being serious?” she screeched as her long red hair danced frantically behind her back.
“Yes. I couldn’t think of anyone else I’d rather work with.”
“You do realise you don’t have to do this? I mean, I know you are grateful that I helped save you from the evil William Field and find your mother, but I did it because you are my friend. You don’t owe me anything.”
“I know that, silly,” I laughed. “I am doing this because you are the best. You have had input in every major contract we have gained. Lorna, you deserve this.”
“Thank you, Shan. I really don’t know what to say.” She wiped the tears from her deep brown eyes.
“Just say you and Bradley will come and celebrate at Charlie’s and mine tonight?”
“How could I refuse?” replied Lorna, catching me in another body crunching hug.
The four of us sat on the balcony watching the traffic glide across the Brooklyn Bridge. Dusk was slowly falling in the distance as we sat sipping our red wine.
“Did you watch the game last night?” Bradley asked Charlie.
“No, I was working late.”
“Did Forever America go for your ideas in your meeting yesterday?” Bradley remembered.
“Yeah. We have signed a six month contract.”
“Charlie, that’s wonderful!” Lorna beamed. “You never told me, Shan.”
“I was going to,” I replied, embarrassed that I had forgotten.
“I only told her this morning. Shannon has had an eventful week, promoting some annoying girl at work.” Charlie smiled at me, noticing the panic on my face. He could tell I felt guilty as he changed the topic.
“I am not annoying,” Lorna protested, looking at me. I just laughed.
“Are we all still up for the charity ball on Friday night?” I asked a few bottles of wine later.
         “Of course,” Lorna replied, refilling our empty glasses.
“Have you sorted your dress?”
“Yeah, I went to Bloomingdales. They have the most amazing dresses. What about you, money bags?”
I rolled my eyes, grinning. Lorna was always so witty. “I have a dress but, no, I haven’t spent the price of a car on it.”
“Why not?” asked Bradley. “It’s not like you can’t afford it.”
“Shannon is still a secret, remember? It’s safer this way—for everyone,” Charlie replied, stroking my face. “She would be a target for so many people. Not to mention the press. Jennet wants her prepared for that before the announcement is made.”
I wasn’t really sure if I would ever totally prepare myself for that day. Maybe if I hadn’t witnessed what it felt like to be a daughter of a multi-billionaire with Megan, I wouldn’t fear it so much.
         Megan had been used to her fame. She had grown up with it—loving the limelight and all the perks that came with it. Somehow, I knew it wouldn’t be that way for me. I would be a journalist’s dream story: Princess Rapunzel Returns!
Charlie feared how I would handle everything. He wanted to protect me, but he could only do so much.
My mother had her own ideas of protecting me. She had silenced all the witnesses on the beach the day Charlie rescued me, promising to bankrupt anyone who broke the confidentiality agreement—it appeared that most of them had been the Fields’ lawyers.  Her protection, however, also included living on her ranch in Texas. I didn’t like the thought of being so far apart from Charlie, but I knew it was something I would have no choice but to consider at some point, because even he was telling me it was a good idea.
I sat playing with my empty mug, watching Charlie prepare dinner.
“You need to at least consider Texas, Shan. Your mother is right about the media circus,” he muttered, bringing Texas up yet again. This was the third time this week.
“But I want to stay with you!” I sobbed.
“I can stay with you at the ranch when I am not working. It really won’t be that bad,” he replied. “I mean, it’s safer for you. That’s the most important thing.”
“I thought us being together was?”
“But we are together. Just because we are apart, it doesn’t mean I love you any less.”
“I know. It’s just hard being away from you.”
“It’s only Texas, Sweetheart. I really think you need to consider it—just for a while.”
“Are you bored of me already?” I asked, suddenly worried. He was the most striking man in the world, after all. He could have had enough of me.
“You are so ridiculous sometimes,” he laughed, putting his hands through his deep brown hair as he was walking towards me.
“Why?” I asked. He still hadn’t answered my question.
Charlie sat next to me on one of our kitchen stools, taking my hand in his before he spoke. “I travelled across the world to save you, Shannon Downing, because I know I will never love anyone the way I love you. How the hell could you think I would ever get bored of you?”
He moved his head so our lips were just inches apart. I could feel my stomach burst just at our closeness as his blue-green eyes poured into mine.
“Well, if you put it that way,” I replied, overcome by his words.
“You, Miss Downing, need to realise the worst is over. It’s only happy times ahead for us now. We have already found each other. All we have left to do is enjoy it.”
“I can live with that,” I whispered as Charlie’s soft lips pressed tenderly against mine.
I knew he was right, but all my life, when things were going right, something bad was always lurking around a corner. That was my old life, though. Surely things were different now.
