Dante's Salvation
"DANTE'S SALVATION has some laughs, great sex scenes, and two wonderful characters in Wendy and Dante. They deserve each other and the happiness that eludes them. I found Anna Leigh Keaton's story to be an enjoyable read and recommend it for a great romance and paranormal all rolled into one"

"Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton definitely don’t disappoint fans of their INCOGNITO series with their latest offering - PURSUING PENELOPE. It’s full of all the charismatic characters we’ve come to know and love through the previous stories and added an intensely passionate tale that engages readers emotions. This is a wonderful addition to an already beloved series. If you haven’t read any of the INCOGNITO series yet, I highly recommend them all - but I’m afraid PURSUING PENELOPE has taken top honors as my personal favorite so far."

Conquering Connie |
5 Klovers
"While all of the other Incognito books work very well as standalone novels that can easily be read out of order, the way Conquering Connie ends makes me believe that its sequel will be a continuation of some of the storylines begun in this book. Of course, this is my own supposition based on the fact that the tale ends with a bit of a cliffhanger that left me on the edge of my seat itching for the next book in this addictive series!"

"Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton give readers a thrill with CONQUERING CONNIE, the latest addition to their INCOGNITO series. I might as well warn you now, this story packs an emotional wallop as you ‘watch’ Connie go from playful and teasing to depressed and unsure of herself. Tyrone and Alex are strong, determined men who know what they want and aren’t afraid to go the extra mile to ensure Connie’s happiness and well being. I love the emotional connection between the characters that was present even before Master Randy’s death, but afterwards, it’s positively intense.
As with all the books in this series, CONQUERING CONNIE leaves you hungering for the next addition to this series. The ending is dramatic to say the least and there’s a new addition to the patrons of the club (even if she is sneaking around) who could definitely use a good spanking. I’ll definitely be watching for more INCOGNITO books to be released.

Desiring Dixie |

Angels
"Incognito: Desiring Dixie combines a bit of naughtiness with a big dose of lust and comes out a winner. Dixie’s character is warm, caring and totally sexy. She is a strong woman, yet has doubts about getting into a relationship with anyone that might view her as inferior. Bastian is pure hot and sexy male. His desire for the kinky side of sex adds the right amount of spice to the story. The sex is scrumptious. The interaction between the multiracial characters is sizzling. I enjoyed this book and couldn’t wait to get to the end and go look for more by these talented authors. Fabulous job by Ms. Layle and Ms. Keaton"
~ Dawnie, Fallen Angel Reviews

"I adored Dixie and Bastian’s romance. I loved the fact that these two were from totally different backgrounds and their relationship changed their perspectives about the opposite social classes as they found not only love, but a better understanding of the world at large. If there is a moral to this story, it is certainly about keeping an open mind and never pre-judging a person based on their upbringing.
I do think there is room to revisit these fascinating characters in a future book. It would be great to see this couple star in another Incognito book someday, with Dixie and Bastian exploring the BDSM lifestyle more fully together. I, for one, wouldn’t mind spending more time with these people.
Once again, I applaud Ms. Layle and Ms. Keaton’s work. I cannot say enough good about these authors, so I will continue touting them to anyone who will listen! It is my very distinct pleasure to give this story Kwips’ maximum rating of five Klovers! "

"Incognito: Desiring Dixie is about the misconceptions than can occur when judging a person by their name. Although there is some light bondage in this book, it’s unlike most of the other Incognito stories as most of it takes place outside of the club. I loved Dixie’s character. Even though it didn’t seem like she had much in the physical sense of possessions, she was rich in her actions. I also really loved Bastian. He wasn’t the typical spoiled little rich kid. He wanted to make his own way in the world and not live off his father’s name. Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton have another winning book with Incognito: Desiring Dixie."

Chailali's Curse |
I loved this book. Absolutely loved it.
"Michael and Christy come to the decision that while she will cook for him and clean, she will never come close to his things nor demand anything from him. And they like it that way. That is, until a thunderstorm in the middle of the night brings out Michael’s protective instincts and when those instincts flair, there is no denying the attraction each feel for the other.
I loved this book. Absolutely loved it. Michael was so scarred and sad, and like Chailali, I despaired of him ever taking the chance and allowing himself to be loved like he deserved. Christy’s characterization was so realistic I could feel the anxiety she felt at times and I just wanted to hug her. All in all, Chailali’s Curse was a great read with lots of emotion and chemistry. Anna Leigh Keaton should be proud of this one!
"
~ Talia Ricci, Joyfully Reviewed

4 1/2 Stars
"Poignant and inspiring Chailali’s Curse by Anna Leigh Keaton focuses on two people who each have their own demons to face, demons that haunt them everyday. I loved reading this book, it moved me with its content, of how hard and how long it takes to forgive yourself for mistakes that you make in the heat of the moment, mistakes that haunt in a multitude of ways. I loved Mike for the understanding way he was able to coax Christy into conquering her fears, of overcoming the terror she confronted daily since her ordeal. And I also loved the way Christy performed, for not giving up on Mike and showing him that while life may throw misfortunes in your way, not giving up and learning to love again went a long way to confronting adversity. This book isn’t just about a hero and heroine being able to find love and redemption after so much disaster has touched their lives, it’s also about a ghost, Chailali, a woman punished for her actions against a man who didn’t return her love and her quest for redemption. Ms Keaton has become one of my favorite authors and this book just highlights one of the reasons why. Every reader of paranormal stories needs to get this fantastic and moving book, if not for its characters then definitely for its story."

"The love and pain between Mike and Christy is a tangible force. Christy just bursts with emotion, which makes her character so vivid. Her panic attacks as well as her passion would set anyone’s heart racing. Mike makes you want to hold and comfort him. His pain both physically and emotionally comes through perfectly with every word. Ms. Keaton pairs their strengths and weaknesses so well they make a fantastic couple. She takes you on that amazing roller coaster ride of emotion right along with her characters."

Risking It All |
4 Blue Ribbons
"RISKING IT ALL is a heart-warming contemporary romance that is engrossing and well worth a read. The main characters are not youngsters, they have seen life, lived it and been burned by it, but they are stronger for all of that. It is easy to empathize with Neela and Travis; both are real and pop right off the pages at you. Their story is touching, sensual and humorous at times, the plot is solid and believable and progresses quickly enough to keep your interest. The interaction between Neela and the boys is an added bonus and fleshes the story out nicely. A final climactic confrontation caps the story off nicely and makes you cheer for Neela and Travis. The sex scenes are sweet, sexy and hot. RISKING IT ALL was an enjoyable read and I would enjoy reading more offerings from Ms. Keaton."

"Anna Leigh Keaton has a wonderful way of bringing her characters to life. Neela is sweet and down to earth while still giving a hint of her privileged background. The way Ms. Keaton uses words and action to portray Neela’s insecurities is flawless and the glimpses of the self assured woman she used to be are well timed and draw you into the story even more. Travis is a rancher through and through, even if Ms. Keaton had taken him away from the ranch just the way she has crafted him would have told you what he was. The man oozes hard working cowboy from every pore. Risking It All, though a short read doesn’t skimp on any emotion and certainly not on heat. As the story progresses and they get closer you feel their heartstrings twisting together, neither of them daring to hope for more than this minute in time. Ms. Keaton weaves a wonderful story of emotional depth as well as sexual chemistry. Both seem to mix together effortlessly and Risking It All is a tribute to Ms. Keaton’s skill as a storyteller. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in her world."
~ Rachel C., Fallen Angel Reviews

Risking It All is a wonderful story filled with drama, romance and sizzling sex.
"When Neela Singh was sixteen she told Travis Kincaid that she loved him. Travis was twenty-eight and in love with someone else, so Neela left for England with her family thinking she’d never be with Travis again.
Many years later, Neela is running from her controlling father and returns to Arizona, and becomes the babysitter for Travis’ young sons. She realizes right away that her feelings for him have never waned. Travis has feelings for Neela too, feelings he thought he would never have again after losing his wife.
Neela and Travis come from two very different worlds and Neela’s father intends to keep it that way, regardless of how they feel about each other.
Risking It All is a very heartwarming and passionate story. Travis’ boys are adorable; Neela is a sweetheart and Travis a really good man. Risking It All is a wonderful story filled with drama, romance and sizzling sex. "

Rescue Me |
4 Blue Ribbons
"The author successfully pulls off the ‘damsel in distress’ storyline and makes it believable, and her heroine completely tosses aside any wimpy stereotypes about distressing damsels! Carla and Jamie are both commanding and in charge professionally, but their previous lovers have left them with insecurities about their ages and sex appeal. I loved seeing them bring their dominant personalities to their encounters, and bury the doubts their younger, less knowledgeable lovers had left. This is a hot and steamy romance that gives new meaning to the phrase older IS better!"

"Getting lost in the woods sounds like a great idea if all of the rescuers could be like Jamie. He is the epitome of a knight in shining armor, mature, gorgeous, and a truly good person. You can tell a good man by how he treats his dog, and Pixie is truly loved. Carla may think she is too old for love, but with Jamie that is no longer true. She is not about to let the “one” get away without a fight, so she goes for it. I loved every page. It is great to read a hot and sexy love story with two mature adults. Love just gets better with age."

Stars (Rated S for Sizzling)Rescue Me is an enjoyable little romance that makes you smile, engages your heart and makes you sigh happily when you finish.
"Rescue Me is an extremely cute, engaging contemporary romance. Jamie has true hero qualities such as caring, gentleness, honesty and a sense of humor. He is the kind of guy most women would love to meet and fall for. Carla is not your typical crying victim, which is what I loved about her character. She is strong, matter-of-fact and humorous, despite what she has gone through on her own. But I have to admit the best character in the story is Pixie. She is a smart, charming canine with a talent for matchmaking who just steals the spotlight in every scene she is in! The romance between the leads is fresh, simple and sensual. Their attraction is immediate and the sex scenes are pure vanilla but hot and enticing nonetheless."

Charming Carmen

"CHARMING CARMEN is a wonderful addition to Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton’s INCOGNITO series. This storyline had me running an emotional gauntlet and eventually so dang happy for everyone involved that I couldn’t put it down. I loved how the characters related to each other and the respect which all members of the club seem to have for each other. If you read COLLARING KAT then you probably wondered about what would happen to Carl after that story ended, I know I sure did! I adored him in that story and fell in love with Carmen’s open loving personality in CHARMING CARMEN. This book is a wonderful addition to this series and I can’t wait to find out which of the INCOGNITO members will be next . . . maybe Master Bastian? I admit I’m dying to know what happens on his yacht."

"Where to even start? This reader has been fortunate enough to read each and every installment of the Incognito series. They only get better with each one. Charming Carmen introduces a new character to the mix and offers a challenge for Carl. Carmen is a delicate flower that needs nurturing in order to bloom into the women she is destined to be. Carl is just the substance she needs. Carl is a complex character that is both unique and intoxicating. One taste of him and readers will not be able to get enough. The depth in character that Carl possesses is truly amazing. The chemistry between them is instantaneous and consuming but is displayed in such a tender, beautiful way that readers will feel the need to shed a few tears. A story line laced with moments that will make readers laugh, times of uncertainty, and moments of devotion and compassion, readers cannot go wrong with Charming Carmen. Madison Layle & Anna Leigh Keaton continue to draw readers into a world they wish they could experience for themselves. Readers will be thankful with each turn of the page that they write in such a manner that readers feel as if they truly are there. 5 Angels and Recommended Read!"

"Carl has slowly escalated in the Incognito stories from minor character to supporting player until readers were practically salivating for this intriguing man’s story, and the authors did not disappoint us in Charming Carmen. Carl shows that a submissive man is not necessarily a weak man. I for one learned much about the motivations a man might have for acting in a sexually submissive role, and will readily admit that my perspective on this creature has changed for the better.
Tat is something I can truly say about each of the books in this series. Layle and Keaton always find a way to teach me something new, both about this lifestyle and myself. They succeed time and again in altering my perceptions and making me think. While these talented authors continue to provoke me in such ways, I will be first in line to read their books as soon as they release!

"Ms. Layle and Ms. Keaton have done a wonderful job of showing Carl as a man that is an alpha as well as being a submissive. Carmen is a capable, intelligent woman that is determined to live her life as she wants and not let another man walk all over her. There are also lots of wonderful secondary characters that have had stories of their own in earlier books. Also, the story takes place on the beach in sunny Florida, which couldn't be a more wonderful setting. There is a lot of emotional ups and downs in this story so be prepared for a few tears."

"Charming Carmen is sexy and very captivating. Here, the woman is the Domme. Carl is the submissive and it makes a nice departure from the other Incognito stories. Carmen is a woman on the brink of discovery throughout this story. She learns new facets about her personality, her sexual tastes, and her desire for control. She is a strong woman but has only recently discovered those strengths. For Carl's part, he sees a woman on the brink of something and he wants to be a part of it. It is not easy for him to leave his comfort zone, the pretenses he has put up for so long, but he does it for Carmen and for the chance of something wonderful between them. I have to say, the ending in particular was pure grace and emotion. I felt Carl and Carmen did a great job of handling themselves and this story ended on a very high note but not necessarily the clichéd marriage and babies ending. Carl and Carmen are only just discovering each other and their own personalities to an extent, and this book welcomes that discovery with fluid prose, smart love scenes, and two characters that leave indelible impressions."

Collaring
Kat

"Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton present readers with a storyline that will keep you engrossed in the pages with their INCOGNITO series. COLLARING KAT takes readers behind the scenes of the Incognito club and allows us to see Kat as a woman who’s very confused by the emotional pull she’s feeling toward Dalton. Temper that with the reputation of Mistress that she’s upheld for years and you can easily see and understand her fears. Dalton is about as Alpha as they come. He’s not going to let Kat get away with pushing him aside simply because of her fears-especially once he realizes that her relationship with Carl is nothing more than a smokescreen. I loved the wide range of emotions that I experienced while I read this story."
~ Chrissy Dionne, Romance Junkies

"Collaring Kat is the fifth book in the Incognito series and does not disappoint. The pages are riddled with emotions, uncertainties, and decisions. Katriona is a complex character and Dalton is just the man to unravel her. She is tender-hearted even underneath the leather, nails, and flogger as well as loyal to those she cares about. Dalton is a strong-willed, determined man laced with a side of compassion and eludes sexiness in everything he does. The moment the two of them let go in an attempt to deal with the sparks flying between them, it rocks both of their worlds and the readers too. This reader has read many stories and it is rare that she wished to be a character in a book, but this one did it for her. She would have gladly traded places with Katriona to have an opportunity to have Dalton all to herself. The secondary character, Carl, was a great addition to both Katriona’s world but also the plot. He added an element of realism and depth. Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton continue to amaze this reader with a series that only gets better with each turn of the page. Since I am unable to have Dalton, I will gladly add Collaring Kat to my bookcase of must haves. 5 Angels and Recommended Read!"

"With each new release from
Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton, I am more and more impressed
by this writing team! Their newest collaboration, Incognito:
Collaring Kat proves that this exciting series is in no danger
of becoming stale anytime soon. No, Layle and Keaton keep surprising
me with new ways to keep these wonderful stories fresh and exciting.
When I first heard the title for
this edition of the Incognito series, I wondered how in the
world they could make me believe that the ever dominant Mistress
Katriona could be collared by anyone. Not only did they make
me believe it once I began reading this story, but my heart
broke for Kat as she struggled with the secrets she has hidden
from everyone for the last ten years – even her closest
friends.
Dalton Carrington was the perfect
relentless Alpha male sporting a healthy dose of arrogance tempered
by the sensitivity so necessary for a good Dominant. Upon first
meeting, I had no doubt that he was more than a match for Kat,
and would have volunteered for her place in his heart given
the chance!"

Carl is a great sidekick and friend and adds more layering to the story…as do the rest of the supporting characters. The story itself was quick, fun and the romance was heartwarming."

Phantom Lover

"Phantom Lover is a wonderful, emotional love story. Lilly struggles to deal with losing someone she loved and faces the dilemma of walking away from the only thing she has left of them. The emotions she endures are very realistic and believable, leaving this reader glued to her chair heartbroken with grief for her. Jacques might be a ghost, but he is very much a man too. His personality is riddled with passion and the desire to ease someone else’s pain and loneliness. Jacques is a delightful character this reader loved the moment he showed up. The premise that he could only be felt stirs emotions in not only the other person but Jacques too. Throughout this story, I was overwhelmed with various emotions: ones that made me laugh, cry, rejoice, and hurt to the very core of my heart. Anna Leigh Keaton has crafted a story laced with abiding love, regardless of how impossible it might be to have forever. Phantom Lover is one of those stories that readers will need to have a tissue box near by and one they will want to tell everyone they know to read. 5 Angels and Recommended Read!!

Stars (Rated O for Orgasmic)Anna Leigh Keaton is a master storyteller of the art of erotic romance.
"Phantom Lover is full of chills and thrills that will leave readers out of
breath.
Jacques and Lilly were exceptional, full of passion and grace. I couldn't put
this story down. Readers will definitely be pulling out the toys and fantasizing
about Jacques long after they are done reading. Jacques is every woman's dream
man; sexy, suave, with a foreign accent and ready to settle down with the woman
he loves for all eternity. Lilly is who every woman strives to be; perky,
strong, beautiful, engaging and more than willing to fulfill her man's dreams.
It is amazing to see how a ghostly presence can affect a woman so strongly in
the sex department. Even though Lilly couldn't actually see Jacques, she could
hear and feel him. The plot line never faltered. If anything it became stronger
as the story went on. Together Jacques and Lilly left this reader quivering in
anticipation throughout the entire story.
Everything about Phantom Lover was awe-inspiring, from the plot line, the
characters to the astonishing sexual gratification. Very high praise goes to Ms.
Keaton for making my favorite author list. I cannot wait to read more from her
very soon!

"Oh man this was a good book! Anna Leigh Keaton has found a winner with this creative and unique storyline. The romance between Jacques and Lilly was very believable and the sex scenes were sizzling with heat. I thought that the story was very well developed and I actually felt the characters pain in the end. When part of a book can bring you to tears, I believe that it is a very well developed storyline. The theme of this book was very interesting to read about and not just another typical romance novel. I am going to try to find a print copy of this book because it is definitely going on my keeper shelf. The only bad thing that I could say about this book was that it wasn’t long enough. I found myself wanting to know what happened to the characters in the end after the book ended. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a fresh new take on paranormal romance.

Ms. Keaton has penned a fantastic and a hauntingly beautiful story...
"As the first in the Moonlight Cove series, I really enjoyed reading Phantom Lover by Anna Leigh Keaton. The thought that a man cursed to live in between life and death until he knew the agony of love was a great storyline. I really enjoyed Jacques and Lilly, they were characters that you could fall in love with and I did. The relationship between them started off as that of innocent friendship that grew into a love that could cross the boundaries of limbo. Lilly was a woman who had her own troubles, ones that she needed to share with someone and when she realized that Jacques wasn’t the childhood imaginary friend but a phantom stuck in time she discovers the man that really understands and loves her. While Jacques knows that he is cursed to live a half-life of knowing that he will never die. Ms. Keaton has penned a fantastic and a hauntingly beautiful story of a quest for life and love."

PHANTOM LOVER is a lovely read.
"Anna Leigh Keaton has written of a man out of time and a lonely woman with a soft, achingly romantic style.

Anna Leigh Keaton uses her talents to make everything fit together in a hot, gentle, and oh-so-satisfying tale. PHANTOM LOVER would be a pampering indulgence any time of day, especially on a rainy evening with the lights turned down low.

PHANTOM LOVER is a real page turner.
"It is not your everyday wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am erotic read. It is a real story of past hurts and blossoming love. Jacques is a wonderful hero with powerful emotions and he is crazy about his Lilly! When he tells the story of his curse, my heart broke. I was pulled into his tale and desperately wanted things to work out between the two of them. Lilly is a strong woman who is willing to do anything she can to save Jacques. She didn’t waste time questioning the logic behind their relationship. Instead of wasting their precious time, she decided to reach for the stars and enjoy her phantom lover. For anyone looking for a good paranormal romance with spicy love scenes, PHANTOM LOVER should be at the top of your list!

Healing Heather
 
A Joyfully Recommended Read!
"Healing Heather is the fourth book of the
Incognito
series and the first non-menage. The fact that it was
not a menage did not detract from the book one iota
and in fact, I think that the authors were wise in doing
this. Heather was emotionally fragile and very scared.
She needed one man that she would be able to to lean
on and that man was Paul Baxter. Tough cop,
demanding lover, delightful friend; he was that to
Heather and more. She completed him and his love for
her made the storyline that more poignant and beautiful.
Even though Heather was frightened, I found her
stubbornness and honesty a super addition to the plot.
Once again Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton
have come through and written a totally captivating novel
with Healing Heather. I have been hooked on this series
since book one and the wait for each additional
installment gets harder and harder to bear. It goes
without saying that Healing Heather is a keeper but let
me joyfully recommend it as well. Write faster ladies!"

"The Incognito series keeps
getting better and better. At a point when some series may
start to become stale, Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton
keep finding ways to keep this exciting saga fresh. Incognito:
Healing Heather picks up right where the previous story, Incognito:
Winning Angela leaves off....
Heather is heartbreaking. With
memories of the great love she and her late husband shared,
she searches for someone who can give her the same feelings
of security and completeness she had with him, topped off
with a healthy dose of passion. Her search ends fruitlessly
again and again. She finally meets the one man who can give
her what she most needs, but only after the part of her that
can trust implicitly has been broken, possibly irrevocably.
Watching Heather try and overcome her fears to shape a future
with Paul is inspiring, but will most certainly run even the
most hardened reader through the wringer. I defy anyone to
not be moved by this love story."

"First and foremost, this
story is not for those who have experienced abuse in the past.
However, if you want to read a great suspense erotic romance
then this should be your choice. Heather’s character is
an intelligent, beautiful woman. ... Paul is a compassionate,
sexy and intelligent man. He wants to wrap Heather in protective
bubble but also admires her spirit. ... Together Paul and Heather
explore their relationship with slow steps and it paces the
book wonderfully. You feel their passion build and you want
them to make it. While at times the violence against Heather
is painful to read, the character development between her and
Paul makes for a wonderful romance. The sex is a powerful demonstration
of vanilla and BDSM wrapped together. Each sex scene builds
on trust and romance. Their intricate relationship is powerful
to read. This is a very satisfying erotic romance with or without
the BDSM elements. The suspense and passionate sex and loving
romance make this a wonderful erotic romance."

"In Where There’s Smoke, author Anna Leigh Keaton moves beyond sheer storytelling and breathes life into individuals whose story is captivating and moving. This is an emotionally charged portrayal of two deserving people finding the strength to love and trust. Kate and Toby are well-developed, believable characters. Even as Toby shows his compassion and tenderness, he still fumbles in his desire to help Kate. His imperfections and loyalty made him that much more endearing to this reader. Kate is a wonderfully strong woman whose struggle to overcome the past will charm readers. Their relationship develops at a steady, tender pace and pulls readers in completely. The poignancy of some scenes will be enough to move readers to tears. The added suspense elements flesh out the storyline and had this reader engaged from start to finish. Wonderful job!

"Kate Darby runs the Irish Pub her father owned before he died the year before, leaving it in debt. With her business acumen, she should be running it for profit soon. She has done well for herself except in one area of her life; men and dating.
Toby Angel is a local bad boy turned firefighter and even the last ten years with the Cooper Valley Fire Department he remembers being that teen delinquent, until Kate’s father helped him straighten out his life with a job at the pub.
Kate cannot believe that Toby always had an effect on her; first at twelve, and now at twenty-eight; she hates to admit Toby affects her physically. In the three years she has been back since she was raped and sent her rapist to jail, only her father knew the story and about her problem around men. Now Toby has guessed her secret and wants to be a friend, and more, he understands since his sister went through something similar years before.
This is about rape victims and how women deal with it after. With luck they can go on with their lives, but some remain affected forever. Women can learn to empower themselves and not remain a victim, but it takes a strong person to rise above it and allow another into their life romantically.

"Anna Leigh Keaton pens a fantastic and emotionally wrenching love story in WHERE THERE’S SMOKE. Kate is a traumatized woman. There are no other words for it. Her actions are that of someone who has been through hell and back and Kate certainly has. She has survived to a point, but it is with Toby’s help that she is starting to realize she is still letting the past win if she cannot embrace a happier future. Toby takes great pains to show her his heart and his growing love for her. I liked how they really learned to rely on each other. Even Kate, who cannot easily trust Toby, knows that he would not hurt her. It is just a matter of telling her brain that. They share a strong and sometimes painful connection, but it is honest and appealing. Both have issues to work through but they work through those issues together and I think that was what made this story so wonderful. Trust and love grow hand in hand and make WHERE THERE’S SMOKE a satisfying and fulfilling love story.

Winning Angela
A Joyfully Recommended Read!
"Each installment of this (Incognito) series
has kept me
spellbound for hours while reading. Winning Angela was
exquisite. Like Angela, there would have been no earthly
way I could have picked between Blaine and Garrett
because each man, in his own way, fulfilled different
wants and needs. I found myself on the edge of my seat
by the book’s end, hoping and praying that everything
would work out.
I found in Winning Angela less BDSM involved than
what
I was used to when reading Madison Layle and Anna
Leigh Keaton, but it was no less enjoyable. In fact,
reading about a D/s switch was quite refreshing, and I
really thought that the characterization of Angela
extremely realistic.
Winning Angela was released on December 1, 2006
from
Cobblestone Press and by December 2, it was happily
ensconced on my keeper shelf! I can not wait for the next
installment of this series."

"Winning Angela is the third installment
in the Incognito series: a series that just might be my favorite
erotic/BDSM series. This reader was pleasantly surprised by the
slight shift in personalities this book had along with the return
of so many characters from the first two installments. The emotional
struggles that all three (main characters) experience and the
competition Garrett and Blaine endure are very realistic and add
an element to their story. Readers will be fighting and cheering
for each of them to have what they want and desire. Madison Layle
& Anna Leigh Keaton, just like Garrett and Blaine, are a wonderful
complement to each other and will have readers wanting to grab
everything they can from both of them. A tremendous job ladies!"

"I have read and loved each
of the previous Incognito books, but I will admit that I was
hesitant to read Incognito: Winning Angela. ... In spite of
my trepidation, I finally decided I liked the previous books
so much that I really had to read this one too, and I must say,
I was very pleasantly surprised. My fears concerning how submissive
Blaine would be were needless, and the chemistry between the
three lead characters was dynamite!
Watching Garrett and Blaine try
to ‘out-man’ each other at every step was endlessly
entertaining...Blaine is submissive to a degree, but never spineless
as I had feared he may be. He proved the perfect foil to Garrett’s
Alpha Male persona.... While I loved Blaine, I absolutely adored
Garrett. If he could step off the pages and walk into my life,
I would be one happy woman. Of course, even if he could, I supposed
it would do me no good since he is more than smitten with Angela.
Even at his most antagonistic, we see him pushing Blaine to
be the man Angela needs him to be. As Angela’s Dom, Garrett
is resolved to provide her with everything she needs, even if
that means Blaine.
I am really glad I read Incognito:
Winning Angela. It gave me new perspective on the male submissive,
along with a very sweet love story kicked up a few notches with
the kind of spicy love scenes fans of the Incognito series have
come to rely on. I’m only sorry it took me a month to
decide to read it! Next time Madison Layle and Anna Leigh Keaton
release a book in this series, I can assure you I won’t
think twice about reading it."

"Yummy!"
"Ménage
a trois...ever thought about one? ... Angela is a woman who
knows what she wants and will risk all to get it. Garrett
is the rough around the edges kind of guy, while Blaine is
wine and roses. However, in the bedroom these two men are
awesome. ... The sex is scorching, and the threesome's hot!
... Oh to be the filling between the male sandwich. Yummy!
WINNING ANGELA is chock full of emotion, sexual tension, hot
men, and lots of steamy sex."

"Dominique is an interesting heroine with many contrasting shades. She is a very frisky, black ghost and an emotional one, too. It was very easy to root for her.... Travis is a dear and his efforts to keep Dominque's antics in check are going to bring a smile to your face.... It is really easy to feel their sadness and their sweet love that goes beyond physical planes and reality. Their tale has quite a bit of sensual heat.... The setting of the story, details of the antebellum mansion, and the tales and secrets swirling around the plantation constantly intrigue and fascinate the reader. The pacing was smooth and the absorbing storyline made RETURN TO ME a very enjoyable and riveting read for me. Heartfelt and wonderfully romantic, it never felt lackin anywhere despite being a very short read. Hats off to the authors for penning a memorable romance novel that is sure to in raves!"

One Night of Paradise
|
"I thoroughly enjoyed One Night of Paradise. From the plot and characters, to the passion and humor this book kept me smiling. Carol is a beautiful woman inside and out. Readers will empathize with her doubts and fear and cheer all the harder that a man like Liam loves her. Liam is a wonderful male character, sexy and daring one moment while tender and persistent the next. Witnessing these two get together was a joy. Ms. Keaton’s writing is smooth and laced with humor and heat. The love scenes had me hoping their night would last a long time. As the author moves into the heart of their conflict readers are treated to humor that will have them laughing while also aching at the chance these lovers might lose. Fortunately, Liam doesn’t give up easily and well meaning friends are more than happy to lend a hand. Fans of Ms. Keaton will be doubly delighted by the reappearance of Steve and Gracie from Five Alarm Neighbor. I recommend checking both stories out.

Cats Liam Taggert is a wet dream.
"From the first sex they have, to the last sex scene of the book, these two are hot! The sex was not purple, but it also wasn’t crude. It was loving and sexy and left even me hot and bothered! (Now that’s a feat for a m/f book, let me tell you.)
I was very pleasantly surprised by this book. It’s very tight in terms of style and plot, and I found myself wanting to read more, even when I had to stop for other things. Ms. Keaton does a wonderful job of drawing the reader in, and getting the reader into the minds of her characters. I was constantly praying that Carol would find what she so desperately sought from Liam, even if Carol herself didn’t believe she ever would.
Ms. Keaton, I commend you on a wonderful little story.

"ONE NIGHT OF PARADISE is a sizzling love story. The chemistry is off the charts between Tagg and Carol. Ms. Keaton has done a phenomenal job of showing their growing relationship in a short amount of time. I really felt like these characters connected in a powerful way besides through intimacy. Carol is very insecure but Tagg does an excellent job of showing her just why he is falling for her. Tagg never expected to fall for her so fast, but he’s not holding back. His sex appeal, his kindness and caring towards his son and his devotion to his job all make him the kind of guy any woman would be proud to call her own. ONE NIGHT OF PARADISE will envelope you in a sensual spell and leave you wanting more. I hope Ms. Keaton plans to explore more characters from Cooper Valley."

Five Alarm Neighbor
5 Klovers
"Anna Leigh Keaton has managed, in only eighty-five pages, to spin a multi-layered history for both of the lead characters, creating a rich background for each that lend credence to the obstacles to their romance. Still, she deftly manages to bring Gracie and Steve past those individual obstacles in time to find a happy ever after at the conclusion of the story.
Steve is the embodiment of everything a woman imagines in her fantasy firefighter – strong, forceful, handsome, and heroic. In addition, he surprises us with a romantic streak that is sure to melt any heroine’s heart.
As a school teacher, Gracie proves as much of a heroine as Steve is a hero, but remains down to earth so that she is easy to identify with.
The writing is fluid, the story is complete, and the romance is hot and sweet. Five Alarm Neighbor is a thoroughly enjoyable read!"

"Ms. Keaton has written an intense, passionate love story with more than one “accident.” Each time something happens, the obsession escalates. The author shows incredible ability to share a storyline that demonstrates the couple’s consuming passion in a very explicit way that does not detract from the emotions they share. This is a wonderful story which I recommend highly!

"The smoldering attraction between these two neighbors bursts into full flame late one night. Is it best to keep it short, exploring their highly combustible mutual reaction or will it be the kind of fire that will burn for all time?
FIVE ALARM NEIGHBOR did a wonderful job showcasing the difficulties of the women who love these everyday heroes. Gracie’s fear of becoming involved in a serious relationship with her neighbor was extremely plausible given the tragedies that she had experienced growing up. Likewise, the sexy and lovable Steve isn’t initially looking for the long-term.
That is what makes this story so engaging. Hero and heroine fall in love in spite of themselves. The near tragedies that help crystallize how they feel towards each other make an excellent case for taking the chance at happiness. These situations made clear that it might never be the danger from a job but something from the everyday that could bring about loss.
The story was a quick read that this reviewer thoroughly enjoyed. Ms Keaton has penned a delightful romance with love scenes fiery enough to inspire readers’ own firemen fantasies.

"The sex in this book is red-hot, modern, and extremely realistic. Ms Keaton has written two very strong-minded characters that I can visualize very easily. The dilemma each faces as they work through the minefield they find themselves in is one I personally identify with, and I am sure others will too. How much should one risk in order to be happy? Give nothing and you gain nothing."

FIVE ALARM NEIGHBOR may require a fire extinguisher in places.
"Whew! Steve and Gracie both enter the relationship with baggage -- Steve dealing with Erin's desertion and Gracie with her family history -- but they don't let that get in the way of their sexual escapades. Neither is looking for a long term commitment, but both soon must contend with the deeper feelings that develop between them.

Seducing Olivia
A Joyfully Recommended Read!
"Seducing Olivia by Madison Layle and Anna
Leigh Keaton soothed my D/s craving, ménage loving soul. Totally
not expecting a twin brother, I was more than pleased to fall
in love with both of them. For all of her controlling ways, I
was able to see under Olivia’s exterior to the woman just wanting
to be unconditionally loved. At the moment of her surrender, I
had tears in my eyes it was such a sight to behold.
To say I enjoyed Seducing Olivia would be as mundane
as stating that I like chocolate; I was utterly and completely
spellbound by Seducing Olivia. This book was so much more than
the blurb led me to believe. So much more that I can’t wait to
tell people about this extraordinary book. I feel it is a must
read and I joyfully recommend it! "

Stars (Rated O for Orgasmic)
"Madison Layle and
Anna Leigh Keaton have written a touching, but bumpy relationship
with Seducing Olivia the first book in the Incognito series.
Olivia’s character is a typical corporate woman, pushed
to succeed in the economic world and dying a little inside from
the pain of loneliness. She is not willing to allow herself
to fall in love again after the hurt caused by her fiancé.
The authors portray her conflicted feelings very well... The
character’s confusion over her desire for both Dylan and
Ryan and to surrender to their dominance is well-written...
The sex starts out quick but that is perfect for the storyline.
Dylan doesn’t allow Olivia to hide her desire and uses
the evidence from her own body to show her that she craves his
and Ryan’s attention. The sex flows with the plot and
goes from blazing to inferno by the end. I definitely needed
toys by the end. The plot was challenging in that I could understand
Olivia and her desires to be a successful businesswoman. This
book had me sighing, wishing to be seduced as Olivia’s
character was by Dylan and Ryan. If you like polygamous relationship
books, BDSM and deep love then don’t miss Seducing Olivia."

"Seducing Olivia...makes no secret about
its content, and it is, indeed, very intensely BDSM. I confess
to having a borderline interest in BDSM themed novels, and usually
prefer those that simply play at BDSM, rather than immersing
wholeheartedly in it. That said...I thought authors Layle and
Keaton did a marvelous job penning Incognito: Seducing Olivia!
The writing was absolutely stellar, as was the characterization,
the plot, continutity – I could go on and on. Removing
my own feelings concerning BDSM from the picture, the content
that may not have been suited to me still interested me on an
academic level, and never once offended me. Indeed, the authors
make the depth of Dylan’s and Ryan’s love for Olivia
clear throughout the entire story, and the two constantly remind
Olivia she may use her safe word whenever she wishes, reassuring
both her and the reader that everything they ask of her is entirely
consensual. Incognito: Seducing Olivia
is a must read for anyone who is into BDSM Romances with Menage
content."

"Unbelievable sensuality burns through
every page of SEDUCING OLIVIA thanks to the team efforts of
Madison Layle and Anne Leigh Keaton! Olivia’s business
life is very controlled and impersonal and she prefers it that
way, believing it’s safer for her heart. Dylan and Ryan
take her through a two week submissive training course that
rocks her entire world and redefines everything she thought
she knew about herself. Together, the two lovingly show her
that being dominated, bowing to their commands, makes her stronger;
that giving herself so unconditionally and trusting in Dylan
and Ryan displays an amazing amount of courage, not weakness.
An outstanding, unforgettable novel of erotic romance!"

"Highly-charged Sensual Romance"
"SEDUCING OLIVIA is a passionate, heated
erotic romance with two heroes and one heroine. Dylan and Ryan
are equal in their passion for Olivia and have often shared
women. However, with Olivia they have found their mate and as
they say in the movies...that's that! Olivia never expected
to find one man who wouldn't be disgusted by her wicked fantasies.
Fortunately she's got two of the naughtiest men who will fulfill
every one of them, and they love her, too. The sex scenes are
torrid, explicit, and full of pleasure. The ménage a
trois is beautifully crafted and doesn't include any male/male
action. No, these brothers only have eyes for Olivia. Authors
Madison Layle and Anna Leigh have written a highly-charged sensual
romance peppered with emotion that readers are certain to enjoy."
