#NewRelease ~ Forbidden Trouble ~ Military Romance/Humor

Title: Forbidden Trouble 
(Tyler's Trouble Trilogy Book 3) 
Author: Travis Casey
Genre: Military Romance/Humor
Release Date: November 25, 2013

***********
Powerful women are his weakness. Trouble is his strength
***********

Tyler Chambers doesn't have to look for trouble, it finds him. He is not happy when his assignment is switched from living a carefree life sailing around the South Pacific to working in a stressful environment in the cold, wet climate of Scotland.
The last thing he wants is responsibility, but his efforts to avoid it wind up impressing his boss, Naval officer Darcy Novak - and she does not impress easily. Tyler is seduced by her position of power and changes his tactics, aching for her attention.

As she gives him more responsibility, the relationship edges to being more than just professional. But they must fight their true feelings as their personal affection for one another is forbidden by Navy regulations.

Quality Assurance Inspector and co-worker Charlotte Kemp doesn't have the same code of ethics and uses her professional power for her own personal pleasure. When her lust goes too far, Tyler's world is thrown into chaos, forcing him into some tough choices and a web of lies.

Wanting the wrong woman turns out to be more trouble than Tyler bargained for. His work life fixing submarines is hectic, but he must also fight forbidden desires while shunning a man eater.

***
"Tyler, you stole my heart. You stuck up for me when I couldn't have. You came to my rescue when others wouldn't have. And you loved me when you shouldn't have. All I can say is…I'm glad you did."
***

Join Tyler as he weaves his way through trouble in Scotland … and a Loch of Trouble  


Though you could read Forbidden Trouble on its own as a complete story, I highly recommend Travis Casey's first two books in the Tyler's Trouble Trilogy. Racy, raunchy humor of an adult nature with a lot of sexcapades and thrills. Check them out at Amazon too!

If you want some fun, fast, humorous reading on the naughty side to laugh off your Thanksgiving feast, Travis Casey is always a great bet. Happy reading!!

#BookReview ~ Oceans of Trouble ~ Humor

Title:     Oceans of Trouble
Author: Travis Casey
Genre:  Humor/Suspense
Rating:  5 stars


Going to sea is an escape from reality, 
unless reality comes with you

****

Exotic ports, alluring women, and experiencing adventures on the other side of the world sounds ideal. After a drunken bet goes wrong, Tyler Chambers boards his US Navy frigate and looks forward to leaving the pressures of the real world behind and slip into a cocoon of escapism. In and out of port in a few days is the perfect way to avoid responsibility. He is happy to live his life as a stereotypical sailor and look for a girl in every port with hysterical consequences. 

What he doesn't count on is a psychotic shipmate trying to kill him. Or his commanding officer out to lock him up for an illicit affair. Letters coming to and leaving the ship hold key evidence against Tyler, proof he must keep out of the Captain's hands at all costs. Will Tyler be able to find an ally who can keep him out of trouble? Or will he crash and burn at the hands of sinister shipmates?

Danger lurks in every port and his time at sea is a fight for survival. There is no escape when sailing in Oceans of Trouble.

My Review: 

I am so excited to see the continuation of Tyler Chamber's adventures in this second book of the Tyler's Trouble Trilogy. I couldn't get enough of the first book, loved this one, and now I can't wait for the third to be released and see how it all ends.

Oceans of Trouble is another laugh out loud romp through Tyler's life. Since this one is on board a ship, we get to see much more in the way of Navy life. I have to admit to being shocked at a few of the things that happened (you'll know what I mean when they cross the equator) but have since seen videos showing that this is, in fact, a true-to-life accounting of what happens, which made it all that more interesting to me. There are plenty of things that happen throughout the book to keep you on the edge of your seat and eagerly turning pages as well as all the laughs at the racy/raunchy humor that Travis Casey excels at writing.

As far as characters, Casey writes big, over-the-top personalities, which makes the humor so great! I will warn that the main antagonist in Tyler's life might be offensive to some, as he is definitely larger than life. But I actually like Sly (in a weird sort of way) and think he adds a lot to the story. Personally, I thought he was more clever than Tyler at times, and it kept me thoroughly entertained. I didn't know from chapter to chapter whether Tyler would even survive this book to finish out the trilogy. And the ending...well, I don't want to do any spoilers, but I was really shocked (in a good way) by how this book concludes. I think readers will also love Quinn and Kimberly, who join Tyler throughout the book as new allies and friends (though I did miss Mark from the first book, if I'm being honest).

All in all, another great title by this author and I will anxiously wait for the final installment. This is on my re-read pile, for sure!

If you missed the first book in the trilogy, it's not necessary to read it first; however, I loved that one too and recommend picking it up. (P.S. Right now it is only 99 cents...but I don't know for how long Amazon link for Book 1 - Trouble Triangle) These are terrific books full of naughty humor! Travis Casey is easily one of my favorite new authors.

Have a great week and happy reading!

#NewRelease ~ Oceans of Trouble ~ Book 2 of Tyler's Trouble Trilogy/Humor/Navy

Going to sea is an escape from reality, 
unless reality comes with you

Short Excerpt:

I opened my arms. "But I didn't do anything."

"Then go tell the Captain if you ain't got nothin' to be afraid of. I'm sure he don't mind you kicking his wife in the face and stealing his daughter's panties, just 'cause you tried to win a hundred bucks off some colored boy." He flashed his teeth.

I suddenly dreaded what was going to be my escape from reality. I thought all my problems were left behind at the mouth of Pearl Harbor. Now they were much closer than I ever imagined possible.

About the author
Travis was born and raised in Mid West America, living in eight cities in five states by the time he was eighteen. He joined the US Navy and spent four years in Hawaii, then five years in Scotland before jumping the metaphorical ship. He and his Australian wife moved to Seattle for two years, but returned to the United Kingdom in 1992 and took up residency in the South East of England where he has remained ever since.

His writing career began with writing mostly non-fiction articles on the website http://helium.com but he was always attracted to those topics under humor and creative writing. Many of his articles have been highly rated and it became a hobby as well as an obsession to write. He turned to writing fiction to allow more creativity. He has written two novels in the series of Tyler's Trouble Trilogy. Trouble Triangle followed by Oceans of Trouble. The third novel in the series is due out late in 2013.

I've been waiting for this book! So excited that it's finally available. If you missed my earlier interview with Travis Casey and the star of Tyler's Trouble Trilogy, Tyler Chambers, you can find that here.

Also, if you missed the first book in the trilogy, it is on sale http://www.amazon.com/Trouble-Triangle-Tylers-Trilogy-ebook/dp/B00ACMBAW8/ and you can read my review on it here.

Happy reading, my friends! I know I'll be up late tonight laughing at more of Tyler's antics.
