Wildcard: Volume Three by Missy Johnson Is Now Available


She’s hiding something from me and I need to know what it is. I’ve done so many things I never thought I’d do for this woman and it kills me that she’s lying to me.

How can I make her see that she can trust me?

Do I want to know the truth?

Sometimes things are easier when they’re left unsaid…

He killed my father. I’m having his baby.

He killed my father. I’m having his baby.

Those two sentences are on repeat in my head, the agony of the rolling waves almost too much for me to bear.

And the agony of my nausea slams into me again with the violent rock of the waves that carry us to safer shores. I think. I hope.

But really, how safe am I? I’m suddenly questioning everything, stuck in a vortex of swirling paranoia and doubt. Is Jase on Dornan’s side? He killed my father. He didn’t even try to deny it.

I can’t believe it, I can’t accept it, and I just wish I could think straight for five fucking minutes. I wish I didn’t feel like this. I’ve left one prison, the one Dornan constructed for me, only to be trapped in one of my own making. The one in my mind that goes over and over and over again.

I’m curled as tight as I can get into a ball on a bed in the main cabin of the boat. We must be going pretty fast, or be in some crazy swell, because I swear if the boat tilted a little more, it’d capsize.

The door is closed. I made Elliot promise he wouldn’t let Jase come in here. I’m going to have to face him eventually, but I just can’t face him now. I don’t want to hear his excuses, if he even has any. He killed my father.

I’ve never been afraid of drowning before, but right now, I’m terrified. Drowning in this ship. Drowning in lies and in blood. Drowning in my own treacherous deceit. For so long, I’ve had only one goal – to destroy Dornan. I was too busy focusing on his suffering to notice or care about my own, and now, I feel so damned broken. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to feel normal again.

In fact, come to think of it, I don’t even know what normal is.

I jump as a warm hand touches my shoulder.

“Hey,” a low voice murmurs beside me.

I turn over to see Elliot lying beside me, his pose mirroring mine. I can see water lashing against the small round window that looks out to the cruel sea we travel within.

“You’re shaking,” Elliot says, frowning as he reaches out a hand to me. Without thinking, I shrink back, an automatic response after three months of Dornan’s psychotic hands being the only ones to reach for me. Elliot’s face crumples into something resembling sadness—despair—as he reaches out to me again, slower this time, and pushes my lank hair back from my face.

Am I even here? I’m not sure. This could all be a dream. An elaborate, drug-induced hallucination. The thought makes me reel. Am I out? Or am I still in the basement? Is Elliot in front of me, or is it Dornan?

I scramble away from Elliot, clambering off the bed and backing up to the far end of the tiny room. Behind me, waves pound violently into the thick glass porthole, the only thing separating us from the deadly currents beyond. The movement of the waves catches my attention and I turn, mesmerized, as I press a trembling palm up to the freezing cold glass.

Am I here? Am I alive?

A nudge in my stomach, nothing more than a flutter really, propels me back to sanity.

Yes. I am here. I am here, while Elliot hovers behind me, and Jase and Luis are somewhere beyond the door that keeps me safe in this room.

And I am carrying a baby inside me. A baby that should never have existed.

And I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a terrible thing.

Body Language by Em Petrova Blog Tour


There are no words for desire this hot…but he’ll sure try to find them.

If there’s one thing that Damian Vince can do well, it’s read women. With his trademark wink and sexy drawl, he’s the most wanted cowboy on the Boot Knockers Ranch, a spa where sexually challenged women come to get charmed out of their uptight panties.

He’s also the ranch’s bad boy—he hates to admit he’s had his mug-shot taken more than once. But now he’s on the right path, ranching and fulfilling women’s desires.

Prim grade-school teacher Ruthie Johansson prays Damian will be able to fix her strict upbringing that’s left her leery of men and intercourse, though her body aches for both. Once she sets eyes on the muscular, auburn-haired Damian, she throbs only for him.

As they get skin to skin, her instinct touches something Damian’s been struggling to hide from his fellow Boot Knockers. A secret he’s spent a lifetime keeping buried beneath bar brawls and a bad attitude. But with Ruthie’s gentle coaxing, he just might give overcoming it another try—as long as they do their homework in bed.

Warning: Contains a bad boy with a vulnerable underside, a squeaky clean woman who wants to get dirty, and a secret shame only love and compassion can heal. Prepare to drool while he parses her sentences…one sexy verb at a time.

The moment Damian opened the door to Bungalow 11 he was presented with the prettiest picture he’d ever seen. Ruthie seated at the small table, sexy as hell in a midnight blue top and tan shorts, hair falling over her eyes.

As he closed the door, she looked up and gave him a grin that made his heart soar.

“Wanna play Scrabble?”

His heart plummeted. Pulse throbbing in his temples, he took in the game board already set up before her. Hell no, I don’t wanna play Scrabble. He’d said similar things to every teacher he’d ever had. But not Ruthie.

Any game dealing with words was a red-hot poker thrust through the chest of a man who couldn’t read.

He cringed inwardly but tried to remain calm on the surface. “I had other games in mind, doll.”

Her eyes glazed over. “But it’s raining. It’s a good inside activity.”

He doffed his hat and came forward slowly, making her squirm with every step. Good—he turned her on. He wasn’t pretending every letter on those tiles didn’t look like a hieroglyphic. He wasn’t pretending with Ruthie.

Light streamed in through a nearby window, illuminating her perfect skin. Today she’d used mascara and lip gloss. Her lashes were a mile long, her lips so kissable he couldn’t resist.

Swooping in, he crushed his lips over hers. The strawberry gloss scent filled his head. With a rumble of appreciation he swiped his tongue over her lower lip. She encircled his neck with her arms and melted into him.

Pressure built in his groin. He half-lifted her from her chair, swiped an arm over the table, clearing it of those tormenting letter tiles, and spread her on the surface.

She burst into laughter, and he kissed her open mouth. Delving his tongue into her sweetness, swirling, lapping, teasing. He caught her knee and pressed it up and back so he could grind his erection into her pussy.

“Damian…”

“Baby, I can’t wait. I want you here. Now.”

Her lips were swollen from his kisses, her eyes gleaming. She fumbled in his back pocket and came out with his wallet. His breathing grew labored. “Take it out.”

She opened his wallet and pulled out one of three condoms he’d stuffed inside this morning. Even knowing the bungalow was well-stocked, he’d packed his wallet with as many rubbers as possible. He didn’t want an excuse not to use one—though he craved that intense heat of being bare inside her.

Moving back, he stripped her top off and tossed it to the floor. Today she wore one of the bras he’d given her from the wardrobe closet—white with dainty pink hearts. He growled and dipped his head, biting into her nipple through the cloth while tearing at her shorts and panties.

After he pulled the matching thong off her bare feet, he wadded it up and stuffed it in her mouth. Her eyes flared in shock.

His voice was ragged. “You look sexy as hell.” With wild tugs, he shed his clothes while holding her gaze. Her cheeks were pink, her eyes losing a bit of her shock. By the time he had the condom in place, he was ready to explode.

Leaning over her again, he nuzzled the corner of her mouth, stuffed full of her fragrant panties. “I’m going to make you scream and scream with pleasure, doll. But no one will be able to hear you.”

She made a sound. Fuck, what he wouldn’t give to tie her up too. Not yet. Slowly.

He scooped his hands under her, cushioning her spine against the table, and drove into her in one sharp move. She pulsed around him, gripping his back. For a mind-blowing minute he thought he could feel her heartbeat in his own veins.

Then he began to move. Plunging so deep she cried out behind the gag. He closed his eyes and skirted the edge of his own release, dying to go fast and hard yet forcing himself to go slow.

Her breaths came faster.

“Put your legs on my shoulders.”

“Uhhh.”

He met her dark eyes and couldn’t stop himself from sinking deep. When he pulled out to the tip, she placed her heels on his shoulders. Turning his head, he bit into her calf while taking her the way he wanted.

“Come for me, baby. I feel you squeezing me so…damn…tight.”

Her moan sounded like his name. He bent to her mouth and caught her thong in his teeth. With a jerk of his head, he tugged the silk free. She kissed him with a wildness that sent him careening toward ecstasy.

Reaching between them, he pinned her nubbin under his thumb. At the pressure, she came. Heat flooded him. His cock extended another fraction, then erupted. He sucked her tongue as he rode the uncharted waters of a release so big and intense, it scared the fuck out of him.

When he came back to himself, he found himself on the sofa with a naked Ruthie cradled on his lap. Her lips moved over his chest and up his neck, then down again. Tender kisses he didn’t deserve but wanted more than anything.

“Better than Scrabble,” she murmured.




Reviews by the Wicked Reads Review Team

Ruthie☆☆☆☆☆
WOW! This is another off the charts hot and steamy read from Ms. Petrova. She is a mistress of the genre, there is no doubt. Every one of her books is a delight to read, successfully combining great story-lines and mind frazzlingly hot scenes.

This is the second in a series. Although we get to see old friends and glimpses of their happiness, this is Damian's story through and through. There are so many shadows of other characters wanting to be in the limelight, that I am sure I shall be enjoying another late night when book 3 sizzles into my Kindle.


Mary Jo☆☆☆☆
If the Boot Knockers Ranch was a real place, it would be booked 52 weeks a year and a waiting list a mile long. After all, what woman wouldn't want to pampered and loved to heart's content for a week?

That's exactly what Ruthie was looking for when she spotted the brochure for Boot Knockers Ranch. After several less than satisfying relationships, she's looking for a man who knows what he's doing in the bedroom and can help her overcome the rigidity instilled into her by her overzealous religious parents. It’s hard to orgasm when, in the moment, you can feel your parents disdain if your parents ever found out you had pleasurable sex.

Damian Vince is a Boot Knocker and enjoys his place on the ranch. Fighting demons of his own, he feels free in ways he never has and cemented his place on the ranch.

Ruthie and Damian fall into lust at first sight and make the most of their time together.

I can't wait for the next installment of the Boot Knockers Ranch, and wonder if I can get Ms. Petrova to write my own happily ever after at the ranch.


Angie☆☆☆☆
This is the 2nd book in the Boot Knockers Ranch series, you can read it as a standalone but it is more enjoyable after reading book one. This book is about bad boy Damian Vince and school teacher Ruthie Johansson. Ruthie goes to the ranch to get something she hasn’t been able to get in normal life. Damian is just the man for her. The spark between Damian and Ruthie is instant and as the week on the ranch goes, things get hotter and hotter. Damian has a secret he doesn’t want Ruthie to know, will she find out? If she does what will she do? You need to read this book to find out! I can’t wait for the next book in the series!

Characters: Well written and easy to connect with
Sex: Holy hotness!
Religious: It is touched on because of one of the characters upbringing
Would I recommend to others: Yes
More than one book in the series: Yes
Genre: Romance
Would I read more by this author: Yes


Shelby☆☆☆
The 2nd book in the Boot Knockers Series was FULL of steamy sex, and can be read as a stand-alone.

Ruthie, a third-grade teacher from a modest, religious family decides she's ready to confront her abnormal views on sex and enjoy a week of stress-free, non-commitment, sexy-time with a genuine cowboy on a working Texas ranch. (And BOY does she get that plus some!)

Damian is the bad-boy cowboy, with a guarded past that decides to be Ruthie's "guide"...and what a guide he is :)

I LOVED the 1st book in this series, unfortunately I didn't enjoy this one as much.

I was waiting for some shocking reveal from Damian, which was hinted to throughout the story. I think I wanted a lot more "story" to occur, but instead was treated to a tremendous amount of sex (which isn't necessarily a bad thing).

Overall, I did like the characters, the sex was hot, and I love the idea of the Ranch!


Veronica☆☆☆
Body Language is book 2 of Em Petrova's Boot Knockers Ranch series but you don't need to have read the previous book to enjoy this one.

Ruthie, a school teacher, grew up in a very religious household and is a little repressed, but she doesn't want to be. Enter Boot Knockers Ranch and Damian, who is hot and a dynamo in bed.

This story has lots of steamy scenes interspersed with romance and a bit of angst. Body Language for me didn't reach the heights of the first book but it is still a good story and I'm looking forward to reading the next one.


Angela☆☆☆☆☆
Wow! Ummm … just … yeah. Ms. Petrova has done it again. In Body Language we return to the Boot Knockers Ranch for another round of cowboy lovin’. I will admit that initially I was a bit disappointed to learn that Ruthie was only getting one cowboy – no ménage this time. However, Damian turned out to be just the right cowboy to get this job done, no assist needed.

Ruthie is an elementary school teacher with a stringent religious upbringing (seriously, having a nice steak for dinner is gluttonous?), who is hoping that a week at the Boot Knockers Ranch will help her find the big “O” and get over the guilt and shame that her parents instilled in her regarding sex. Fortunately Damian is hot for teacher and cannot wait to start the lessons. If you have read Ms. Petrova’s writing before then you know that she writes good sex and Body Language is no exception. The sex between Ruthie and Damian is H.O.T. hot and more than one scene left me squirming. But there is more to the developing relationship between Ruthie and Damian than just unbelievably hot sex and as secrets are revealed and the week comes to an end, they have to decide whether to say adios or ride off into the sunset together.

Body Language is an excellent addition to the series. I love the way the cowboys are able to fulfil the women’s fantasies, while meeting her needs and helping her come into her own as a sexual individual. The interactions between Ruthie and Damian were entertaining. Characters from book one made appearances so that readers of the series were able to find out what’s going on in their lives. Ms. Petrova once again demonstrated her talent as a writer. She has written a book that is sinfully sexy, yet so freaking sweet in parts – I nearly cried during the Epilogue. I am looking forward to my next visit to the Boot Knockers Ranch already.
