Series: Manwhore Series
Titles: Touch Me Not and The Sinners Touch
Author: Apryl Baker
Genre: NA Romance
Since the death of her twin sister, Lily can’t bear to be touched. Not accidentally, not casually…and certainly not intimately. This makes it impossible for her to confess to her best friend Adam Roberts that she’s in love with him. She can’t give him the sort of relationship he needs, so she watches in silence while he plans his wedding with someone else.
Enter Nikoli Kinkaid, the campus manwhore…
Nikoli is a self-proclaimed connoisseur of women, and he wants to add Lily to his list of conquests, but she wants nothing to do with him—until he makes her an offer she can’t refuse. He’ll teach her to enjoy human contact again, giving her a chance to win over Adam, while Nikoli uses all his considerable charm to seduce her.
But Lily raises the stakes…
Lily loves cars. Her late father was a racer, and she grew up under the hood of a car and on the racetrack. Nikoli has a limited edition 1970 Plymouth Barracuda she covets, so she informs him the terms of their deal also require he not sleep with anyone for six months. If he does, she’ll win the car. If she surrenders and ends up in his bed, his beloved ’Cuda is his to keep.
In an intricate dance of control and surrender, a reluctant friendship becomes something more. Lily begins to crave things she never believed she could, and Nikoli realizes there is more at stake than his reputation.
If Lily overcomes her phobia, will she crave Adam’s touch as she’s starting to crave Nikoli’s? Or will she only find pleasure from the touch of a semi-reformed manwhore?
I fucked up.
She was the best and worst mistake I ever made.
I took the coward’s way out and ran.
Now I have a chance to make it right, but she's being stubborn. It used to be cute, but this time it can get her killed.
Boston's latest serial killer has his sights set on the only woman I have ever truly loved, and I will keep her safe even if it pisses her off, even if she hates me for it.
All bets are off this time. I want her. He wants her. Only one of us will win.
And I never fucking lose.
Angelique
He left me broken, shattered. Pain unlike any I’ve ever felt filled me in the wake of his absence.
Six years later, I thought I’d finally gotten over him and moved on.
But Fate is a tricky bitch. She likes to torture us.
She brought Kade back to me, but I won’t ever hurt like that again.
I just have to stay out of his bed until this is over.
Touch Me Not by Apryl Baker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Title: Touch Me Not
Author: Apryl Baker
Almost a year ago i saw this gem of a book pop up in an email and i knew then and there that i had to get my hands on this series. Alright, so circumstances made it that i couldn't read Touch Me Not by Apryl Baker, but i do now and i couldn't be any more pleased about that fact. So first off, i totally wanted this book for the title of the series - there's just something about reformed manwhor£$ and douchebags coupled with witty women who puts them in their places that simply turn me on.
This book was nothing like expected and i loved that aspect. Nikoli was just the right kind of man to take on lily's biggest challenge - the one where she can't handle any type of physical contact. It was poignant, emotional and humorous when i least expected it. I wish it could have gone on for much longer, but at the same time, it was the perfect ending to the first instalment to this series. I know i can't wait to read more from Apryl Baker and will look forward to her books.

The Sinners Touch by Apryl Baker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
There's just something about the way that Apryl Baker writes her stories that i can't stop myself from exhaling in satisfaction after reading her books. The Sinner's Touch being the second book i've read from her, and incidently the second book in her Manwhor€ series, i loved how she took a character, Kade, ripped him apart and built him back together and how the second character, Angelique, is more than able to stand by him, not the simpering heroine that i was afraid (and really, there was no need for me to be afraid, seriously) of her being.
Was, or is, it necessary to have read the first book in the series? Honestly, no, but considering that there is a back story about the Boston Killer in Touch Me Not (the first book), i would suggest it. While the book delved more into Kade's and Angelique's story, i still loved how it allowed me to revisit some characters i had met through Lily and Nikoli's book. I can't get enough of Apryl Baker's books. They are more emotional than i could have imagined, humorous when i least expect it and always a thrill when i start it. I don't think i could have read this book any faster than i did, and i can't wait to find out if there will be more of this series in the future; something i'll be looking forward to!

So who am I? Well, I'm the crazy girl with an imagination that never shuts up. I LOVE scary movies. My friends laugh at me when I scare myself watching them and tells me to stop watching them, but who doesn't love to get scared? I grew up in a small town nestled in the southern mountains of West Virginia where I spent days roaming around in the woods, climbing trees, and causing general mayhem. Nights I would stay up reading Nancy Drew by flashlight under the covers until my parents yelled at me to go to sleep.
Growing up in a small town, I learned a lot of values , I also learned parents have spies everywhere and there's always someone to tell your mama you were seen kissing a particular boy on a particular day just a little too long. So when you get grounded, what is there left to do? Read! My Aunt Jo gave me my first real romance novel. It was titled Lord Margrave's Deception. I remember it fondly. But I also learned I had a deep and abiding love of mysteries and anything paranormal. I started to write just that and would entertain my friends with stories featuring them as main characters.
Now, I live in a small town in WV where I entertain my niece and nephew and watch the cats get teased by the birds and laugh myself silly when they swoop down and then dive back up just out of reach.
I love books, I love writing , and I love entertaining people with my silly stories.
