FIRST EXPOSURE by Elisabeth Naughton - This is the 2nd novella about the Aegis Security team. When Avery Scott's, who is a movie star, assistant goes missing after she went to a adult only resort on a fact finding mission for a part for Avery, she enlist the help of Aegis Security to try and help her find out what happened to her. What Avery didn't count on was the man being assigned to go with her undercover would be her childhood love, Cade Blackwell, she hasn't seen in more than 12 years. He's broke more than her heart when he left her all those years ago and she's never quite recovered. You could feel the chemistry coming from these two from their first meeting and even though Avery fought it being on an island surrounded by sex in all forms made it impossible to not give in. In their search for her assistant, Cade realizes that something far worse than they thought is going on and Avery is already on their radar. I really liked both of these characters and the story had equal parts of suspense, sexy loving and angst. I look forward to the full length books in this series coming out next year.FIRST RAPTURE by Alexandra Ivy - Madison Philips went from a childhood of being poor and having a neglectful mother who slept around to a successful business woman.

There is a good bit of action and mystery in this one that even though its short it's still satisfying.FIRST INK by Laura Wright - Move over MC Club books Wicked Ink is moving in.

But Rush had his heart ripped out 5 years ago by his childhood sweetheart and he's refused to talk to her since.

You couldn't help but fall in love with Rush from the moment you met him. He's the epitome of cool.. Looks like this is the first in what's going to be a series. I can't wait to read more and hopefully find out what really went down between Addison's friend and one of Rush co-workers.FIRST SURRENDER by Katie Reus - For fan's of Katie's Red Stone series this is the first in a spin off series. Its centered around the people that work at a hotel in Vegas. Sierra is the head chef at the Serafina casino.

When she is attacked in the parking garage leaving work Hayden can no longer hide his attraction to Sierra and his alpha man personality comes out to both protect her and in the bedroom. Being a short novella the mystery was solved pretty quick but all the characters - main and supporting were intriguing and I look forward to reading Hayden's brother's book.FIRST TEMPTATION by Joan Swan - What do you get when you mix a tough border control agent and a Counterterrorist agent who have to go undercover in a sex shop to catch someone who's helping terrorist? An extremely funny and very hot and steamy read. Oh there is plenty of action too to get your heart pumping along with the all the sex toys :) And as a added bonus Rio from Intimate Enemies is Taft's boss and running the op. I loved all the stories in this book and didn't have a favorite until I read the last one - First Temptations. Looking forward to more in the Covert Affairs series.
