How I Became Lotus Raine...the Porn Star by Erika Ashby blog tour with review and giveaway

Synopsis
I refused to work my way up the company ladder by sexually favoring my sleazy boss. I was beginning to lose hope. Until one day, he surprised me with an assignment that would literally rock my world.

I never imagined my first assignment being my last. But Brent Nichols worked his way inside every way possible, unlocking something within me. 

Becoming a porn star was never part of the plan. Neither was changing my name. 

Everyone else knows me as Lucy Rogers, but you can call me Lotus Raine.

My Review
5 Im in love with a porn star Stars

Wow!! Im a huge fan of Erika's and when i saw the title to this book I wanted in my hands immediately. This is one of those books that that you go into expecting one thing and wind up getting something totally different. And I mean different in the best way possible. How I became Lotus Raine is so different in comparison to anything else out there and as an avid reader that is something I crave. This book was a refreshing change.

Lucy Rodgers is introduced to us a conservative young woman trying to work her way up the ladder at her company. She's a hard worker and refuses to "put out" like some of her coworkers in order to get the assignment that could make her career. Being that her mom was a stripper and lacked good parenting skills, Lucy has made it her goal in life to be nothing like her mother. She learned about sex and sexual pleasure at a young age and has kept her desires buried deep inside out of fear that she will become her mother if she does enjoy it. Lucy finally gets the break she's been waiting for, but it was nothing like she expected it to be. Her assignment....to live with an ex porn star that is coming out of retirement for one week and document it. 

That week's assignment will turn Lucy's world upside down, make her question things thats she's believed for so long. How I Became Lotus Raine, The Porn Star is a story of a a woman finding herself and setting herself free. It is a truly remarkable story of learning to let go and live the life you are meant to live. The story is told in past and present POV so you really get the full effect and the interview style was so unique. The characters are well developed and the plot intriguing. The chemistry between Brent and Lucy is so hot. And Brent is a porn star so of course the sex was Scorching. This book is full of some great one liners that will leave you laughing out loud. Erika seamlessly added the humor to a story with an emotional undertone.

Overall this is another phenomenal read from Erika Ashby! I will definitely be recommending this to my fellow book lovers.


Excerpt
“We don’t have to do this tonight, but you’ll just be prolonging the inevitable if you decide against it.” His hand moved to my neck, cradling it as it fell back and his free hand trailed up my thigh, moving under the jean fabric of my shorts. “If you don’t want to go all the way, I won’t fight it, but let me at least give you a taste of what you’ll be missing out on.” He bent down, whispering into my ear, licking the edge of it as his finger slipped beneath the security of my cotton panties. Man was I thankful for my non-painted on shorts at that very moment. And so was my conscious pussy.

I bit my lip—hard—suppressing the moan. I internalized it by pressing my center closer to him, as his finger moved in and out of me deeper and faster.

“So wet. So wet and tight.” He murmured praises into my neck as he recklessly worked his finger in and out of me. I had never been touched as possessively and with such expertise as I had with him. In my mind, he had to be a professional fingerer. That had to be a profession, right?

Knocking at the door broke through my consciousness and caused my body to tense.

“Wait your fuckin’ turn,” he turned his head, yelling toward the door.

“We need to go,” I said hesitantly as he continued working his finger, adding his thumb to the mix as he rubbed my clit. My hands pressed into the top of the counter as I pushed myself further into the wall. I could feel it deep within me—signs of what was to come, forming and beginning to crackle throughout my body. Like an electrical current seeking full charge. Sparks here and there uniting, wanting to become one combustible unit.

“We aren’t leaving this bathroom until you get off. Either by my finger or my dick. The choice is yours.”

“Seriously?” I withered even more beneath him. “Who talks like that?” I had never been so turned on in all my life. It wasn’t just the way he was touching me, but that damn mouth of his could get me off by words alone.

“Men who know what they’re doing.” He looked up and gave me a sexy smirk.
