Jackson Steele is finally here! We’ve been teasing you all month long and now you can finally meet him for yourself! J. Kenner’s SAY MY NAME is available now!
About SAY MY NAME
New York Times bestselling author J. Kenner kicks off a smoking hot, emotionally compelling new trilogy that returns to the world of her beloved Stark novels: Release Me, Claim Me, and Complete Me. Say My Name features Jackson Steele, a strong-willed man who goes after what he wants, and Sylvia Brooks, a disciplined woman who’s hard to get—and exactly who Jackson needs.
I never let anyone get too close—but he’s the only man who’s ever made me feel alive.
Meeting Jackson Steele was a shock to my senses. Confident and commanding, he could take charge of any room . . . or any woman. And Jackson wanted me. The mere sight of him took my breath away, and his touch made me break all my rules.
Our bond was immediate, our passion untamed. I wanted to surrender completely to his kiss, but I couldn’t risk his knowing the truth about my past. Yet Jackson carried secrets too, and in our desire we found our escape, pushing our boundaries as far as they could go.
Learning to trust is never easy. In my mind, I knew I should run. But in my heart, I never felt a fire this strong—and it could either save me or scorch me forever.
Say My Name is intended for mature audiences.

Excerpt
“You really think you can come back after all this time and bat your lashes and have me fall backward over myself to help you out?”
“It’s not like that. I—”
“And for him—for Damien Stark? We’re done, princess,” he says, lifting a finger toward my face. “You told me to leave, sweetheart. And five years later you fall back into my life. And pretty goddamn dramatically, too.”
I lick my lips. “It’s just business.”
“The hell it is.” I hear the sharp edge of emotion in his voice, as dangerous as a well-honed blade. The fight is obvious on his face, as well, and I press back against the car, wishing I could disappear through the metal. He’s fire and fury, and I have no idea what he is going to do. All I know is that all that passion is directed toward me, and that no matter what happens, I won’t leave this parking lot unscathed.
I see it in his eyes first—a quick flash of wildness before his hand lashes out and his palm slams hard against the Lexus. Then he pulls me close, and I don’t even have time to think before his mouth closes over mine.
The kiss is violent. Wild and desperate. And when I gasp, he takes advantage, thrusting his tongue into my mouth as one hand holds my head and the other slides up my chest to cup my breast. He deepens the kiss, claiming me with such intensity that I know I would not be standing were it not for his hands upon me.

Kenner, Larissa Ione, Katana Collins, Marquita Valentine, Elisabeth Grace, Carrie Ann Rya, Erika Wilde, Suzanne Rock, Shayla Black, Opal Carew, and Lorelei James will be taking over the Christian Grey Fan Page to hang out and giveaway some awesome prizes!

NIKKI’S REVIEW
Book: Say My Name
Series: A Stark Novel
Author: J Kenner
Genre: Contempoary Romance,Erotica
Reviewer: Nikki K
Stars: OOOO (4 O’S)
Absence makes the heart grow fonder?
A chance meeting at work function brings Sylvia Brooks face to face with her dream man. Unbeknownst to him, her dream will quickly turn to her greatest nightmare.
Upon meeting Sylvia, Jackson Steel can only think of her. Being with, on, and in her. She somtimes his every thought. But to his great heartache their time together is fleeting.
Five years after their brief yet intense affair the two are once again brought together by work. This time Jackson has a plan! He will not let this woman slip through his fingers without knowing what she did to his heart. Sylvia tries to keep it professional. But the draw to him is stronger than her willpower to resist.
When the nightmares return and Sylvia is forced to face her past, she finally confides in Jackson. Will his strength and the passion for each other be what it takes to finally slay her deamons?
I have read all of the Stark Novels and I must say this was my favorite. The storyline is more original than Nikki and Damien’s. Say My Name had me sucked in not wanting to put it down. I had “just another chapter” syndrome throughout the entire book.
Jackson and Sylvia are a deliciously hot couple and the sex scenes will most assuredly leave you in a heated state. A fan, cool drink or partner may be needed to help you cool down after this book.
J Kenner has done a great job of bringing us a story of love and regret, passion and pain. My only complaint is the dreaded cliffhanger. As I got further in the book, questions Stoll unanswered I knew I was close to the edge. Then, yep just as I feared, I’m on the edge of the cliff and waiting more.
While this is part of the Stark series, it starts an entirely new storyline and does not require you to have read the previous 3 books. However, you will miss out on the backstory that does sneak in from time to time.
*I was provided an ARC of the book for an honest review
