It wasn’t meant to be this way—she shouldn’t have fallen for my brother and left me for him. But she did. And now I’m left to pick up the pieces of my shattered, broken heart. And to top it off, they want me to come to their wedding. Do they think I’m a pushover? Do they think of me as a joke?

The old saying stands true, ‘why have enemies when you can have family.’

I understand it now, better than I ever have in my life.

There’s one unexpected surprise though, Storm. She blew in just like one and makes the pain diminish. She’s exactly as her name describes her—she is a storm. A beautiful and powerful one.

But not all things are meant to last. Like a storm that wreaks havoc, some things cause anguish, and in my life she may very well be one of them.

I love this series!

Crimson Elite is a sex club owned by four best friends, Creed, Echo, Darby, and Falcon.  The books can be read as standalone romances, although I do recommend reading them in order. Cavalier is the first book, which tells Creed’s story. I believe by starting at the beginning of the series, it will help you understand the backstories better and give you a better foundation.  Anguished is the second book in the series, which tells us Echo’s story.  I really love all the guys, but Echo is my new book boyfriend!

The story starts off with Echo’s heart being broken, and on top of that, he has a whole lot of family drama. Echo’s buddies, Darby and Falcon, take him out to de-stress and maybe meet some girls.  It is there that he meets Storm and she just rocks his world.  Soon, he begins to question his feelings and takes a good look at his life.  Will Echo realizes too late who his forever ten is before he loses her?

Absolutely freaking loved this book and can’t wait for the next in the series!

Title: Cavalier

Series: Crimson Elite #1

Author: T.L. Smith

Genre: Romance (standalone)

Release Date: December 27, 2018

Welcome to Crimson Elite, the most exclusive sex club in the world.

Enter at your own risk, and always remember our number one rule—

You must never speak of Crimson Elite—the punishment is severe.

Creed ‘Too Hot For Words’ Christopher

If God created the perfect man he would closely resemble Creed, on the outside that is.

He’s as cavalier as they come. Unconcerned. Cold. Dismissive. I wonder if he has any feelings at all.

And when his lips touch mine, everything goes black. He takes me into his world, and it’s the most magical thing I’ve ever experienced.

And I’m sucked in time and time again.

Like a moth to the flame, I am ready to be set alight.

Elicea ‘F*cks With My Head’ Beckham

Elicea is a firecracker. She has piqued my interest, and no one piques my interest anymore.

Beautiful women are what I do—it’s my work.

Not one of them has managed to get their claws into me the way she does. It’s as if she’s seeing my ice heart and trying to set it alight with each touch of her sinful lips.

But that can’t work, it won’t work.

Not in my world.

Wow!

Another fabulous story from author TL Smith!

Cavalier is the first book in a new series called Crimson Elite. Creed and his buddies Echo, Darby, and Falcon all co-own a highly secretive sex club called Crimson Elite.  Unlike other books that center around sex clubs, Cavalier focuses more on the characters and less on the sex acts within the club.  Now, I’m not saying this book doesn’t have any steamy scenes, because it does! Very steamy ones!

Cavalier tells the story of Elicea who works as a waitress with her best friend, Tracey.  After an incident with a customer, Elicea quits in the middle of her shift. Creed, one of the elite patrons, follows here out and offers her a job at his club.  She soon finds out that she’ll be working at the elusive club Crimson Elite.  This club has many rules, but the most important one is that no one can talk about Crimson Elite… or else.

Cavalier has a character-rich storyline, and I just couldn’t get enough of Creed and his buddies. The chemistry between Creed and Elicea is explosive, and I was mesmerized by this unique and gripping story.

Can’t wait for the next book in the series!
