    Throttled (City & Suzy Novella) by Chelle Bliss

    Joey (City) & Suzy

    This. Is. So. Damn. Good!!! It's one of the cutest, funniest, and hottest novellas I've read in a long time! I mean, seriously, this modest treasure has it all! Of course Joey and Suzy are the perfect duo, and you'd know that if you read Throttle Me, but Chelle manages to add more hilarity, more sexy-time, and more excitement to their romance! I just can't get enough of these Gallo peeps. For real people... if you haven't read any of these yet, you NEED to get your butts on them now! Holy hell!

    Joey (City) of course... is MINE! So, you hookers out there that think he's yours... suck it up buttercup, cause he's mine and so are the rest of these Gallo hotties, even Izzy, I'd switch teams for that beotch! In this little novella addition on City and Suzy I'd have to say City added so much to this story with his hot headed ways and his tenancy to claim what is his at all costs! I loved the angst that he gave to the story. It may have killed me a little, but that's what I live for in books, something to break me and put me back together.

    Now, Suzy... well, she's changed a bit since we first met her in Throttled Me. She seems to have developed a lot more. She's more centered and grounded to the point where she can tell City what she wants and how she feels in a manner that he'll understand! I love the fact that she can't really cook, but City can and it's like he's taking care of his woman is a barbaric sort of way! (*bangs chest). After the crap City put her through, I was shocked to see the way she handled it, in a good way. She's definitely come full circle in this one!

    Great supporting characters in all the Gallos. I love Ma and Pa Gallo... they make me want to organize a family reunion like yesterday! Oh boy, and that Izzy, holy effing hell... that girl is like the girl version of the American Gigolo. She has sex, she swears, and she doesn't give a crap who the eff hears, sees, or judges her! My kinda whore!

    All in all, this is one of the best little novellas I've read is quite some time!! The dialogue flows, the pacing is perfect, and the tension and angst leading up to the climax is flawless! It's 127 (Kindle version) pages long and for me (fast reader) I read it in about an hour! An hour filled with so much emotion, so much funniness, and so much content that my brain and heart are exploding! I think I'll have to buy Chelle a few Jack and Cokes to pay her back for such an awesome book! Muah, love you hooker!

    5 stars cause 10 is not an option!

    ***Reviewing for Bookalicious Babes Blog***

    Mr. Sex in the City and his Hot Angel are back and the addicting Gallo family sucked me up again! It was hard to top Throttled, but its follow-up, Throttle Me, does a bang up job...and the banging is on fire too! Suzy and City's passion sizzles as it did when they first met on the side of the road where the chemistry was instant and oh-so-hot.

    "He looked like an angel with the glowing sunlight behind him. His body was just as divine as it was the night I met him over a year ago. He had a chiseled jaw covered in short, dark hair, his fierce blue eyes shining as bright as the sun, his dark brown hair a mess. I wanted him just as much as I did the first time we touched."

    For this couple, it was nearly love at first sight and their passion is strong--smoking--in this sequel to Throttled. Like Suzy, City still feels as hot for his sunshine as he did when they first met though it's a year later. It is entertaining to hear Suzy throw down curse words in this book like a sailor--showing just how much City has rubbed off on her--figuratively and literally.

    "Suzy was a vision. Skin slightly pink and pale, blonde hair flowing down her back with her knee-length white sundress. She looked like an angel, but I knew the truth. The girl came off as sweet in innocent, but she was a tiger and had developed quite a liking for curse words. I rubbed off on her. To say I was proud to call her mine was a complete understatement."

    City's amazing and loved Mama Gallo has a big role in this story--the matriarch is the much-needed glue to the family--and she's a spitfire herself. She cooks meals that would make Italian restaurants jealous and gives advice like she should have her own newspaper column.

    To the ladies before the wedding: "Always remember to make them [men] think they're in charge. That's the key. Don't ever make them think otherwise. Love them hard, ladies. Smother them with your love. Be fierce when necessary and never back down. Once you give in, they'll expect it always. When they won't give you what you want, well, that's when you deny them the think they want most."

    Suzy ditched her 'life plan' in the first book and gave in to the chemistry and warm feeling of being around the sexy as sin tattooed and pierced alpha man who affected her like no other...stirring up emotions along with lovemaking that was 'off the charts' hot that didn't even know was possible.

    A tragedy almost takes City from Suzy's life, and that really shows how much she would be lost without her handsome hunk of pure alpha and all heart. She loves this big brute of a guy, who is 100 percent pure sexy alpha ,as he is her everything. He is hers forever.

    "What the man didn't understand is that he had already ruined me...no one would ever compare to him. As hard and sexy as he was, the soft and loving side of city was what ultimately stole my heart. The man loved me so fiercely that no one else could ever come close."

    City may look all bad-arse biker boy, but he is a gentle giant when it comes to his angel, who wears his heart on his sleeve. Fate often has a way of entering life--quickly like the wind and with a force just as strong.

    "Sometimes when we least expect it and stop looking, fate has a way of playing its hand. Mine came in the form of a drop-dead gorgeous girl broken down on a deserted street. I thanked my lucky stars each damn day that her car was a piece of [junk]."

    It's so easy to fall in love with City, Suzy, and the whole damn Gallo clan!

    5 sinfully sexy stars!

    Wasn't so sure about this book when it first started, but it really built into a beautiful, real love story. City is a major alpha male, hot, pierced and Suzy is the girl next door who doesn't cuss or swear but City has opened her eyes to the possibilities of letting go of her OCD tendencies every now & then. His dirty mouth is quite attractive to Suzy, in and out of bed! Things get real when City goes off to his bachelor party & Suzy to her bachelorette party where later their paths cross. He taught Suzy how to let her hair down, and when she does, during her last hours as a single woman - his alpha male temper shows up & ruins everything. What I loved is how little time it took for City to realize he hurt Suzy, that he trusts her & loves her with all his heart, and he comes to her hotel room to grovel to win her love back. City has a tough exterior but when it comes to Suzy he lays it all out there for her & doesn't shy away from telling her how much he needs her in his life. Beautiful wedding, hot reception, and lots of teasers for Izzy's story.

    Reviewed in Germany on September 18, 2014

    Wir bekommen ein bisschen mehr aus dem Leben von City und Suzy zu sehen. Die große Hochzeit steht vor der Tür und eigentlich könnte alles doch so schön sein, aber wie immer ist das nur Wunschdenken. Ein dummes, sehr dummes Missverständnis führt dazu das City sich wie ein Idiot benimmt und beide plötzlich ihre gemeinsame Zukunft anzweifeln. Ist ihr gemeinsames Glück noch zu retten oder fällt alles in sich zusammen??

    Ich fand die kleine extra Geschichte über die beiden sehr schön und gelungen. Wir erfahren wie ihr Alltag, jetzt wo sie zusammen Leben, aussieht und natürlich darf die Liebe Familie auch nicht fehlen. Natürlich ist die Geschichte sehr kurz und man darf auch nicht zu viel erwarten, aber für mich war die Geschichte sehr zufriedenstellend.

    Den kleine Höhepunkt im Buch fand ich sehr interessant und ich finde ihn nicht aus der Luft gegriffen. City ist nun mal ein Alphatier und daher war sein Verhalten nachvollziehbar. Das soll keine Entschuldigung für sein Verhalten sein, aber er war nun mal nervös wegen der Hochzeit, hatte eine Menge Alkohol getrunken und Suzy ist nun mal sein Ein und Alles. Trotzdem war er ein Trottel, aber er hat sich auch dafür entschuldigt und man hat gemerkt wie mies er sich gefühlt hat.

    Fazit: Die Handlung war kurz, intensiv und sehr emotional. Sie ist nicht für jeden etwas und man muss sie nicht gelesen haben, aber ich mag solche kleinen zwischen Handlungen. Das Cover sagt eigentlich schon alles. Das Englisch war leicht verständlich und ließ sich sehr flüssig lesen.
