Musical Mondays: La Roja Baila (Himno Oficial de la Selección Española)

musicalmondaysLast week I posted the official song to support the Portuguese National Football Team, and this week I thought it was only fair to post the spanish song. I’m not a huge fan of the Spanish National Team. But I do live here, and the song is pretty great. Enjoy!

La la la,la,la (Red One)
La la la la la …

Gritaremos con más fuerza una vez más,
Vamos a ponerle ganas.

Pon tu alma, pon tus sueños a volar,
Ganaremos la batalla.

Sobre el campo y el terreno está el color
Que nosotros defendemos.
Por la ‘Roja’ moriré, soy español.
Con orgullo lucharemos.

Soñaremos por tí, lucharemos hasta el fin
Y te haremos sentir que la ‘Roja’ juega y canta.

España ey ey!
Cantamos todos
España ey ey!
La roja baila

España ey ey!
Cantamos todos
España ey ey!
La roja baila

Tu bandera es mi bandera y la razón
De expresar lo que yo siento.
Mis estrellas brillarán y alcanzarán,
Tocaremos el cielo.

Alegría, grito y llantos de emoción,
Junto lo defenderemos.
La esperanza no se pierde,
Hay que luchar para conseguir los sueños.

Soñaremos por tí, lucharemos hasta el fin
Y te haremos sentir que la ‘Roja’ juega y canta.

España ey ey!
Cantamos todos
España ey ey!
La roja baila

España ey ey!
Cantamos todos
España ey ey!
La roja baila

Breaking His Rules (R.C. Matthews)

breakinghisrules

When I landed the best bartending job in downtown Chicago, the rules were as clear as the Grey Goose martini I mixed for him. Don’t sleep with the patrons. I had no problem with that. Money didn’t impress me. But Damon Baxter’s eyes did. Midnight blue, just like the name of his nightclub. The way they undressed me made me consider risking the most sought after job in the service industry. Nailing the position had been hard. Obeying the rules? Even harder.

Good thing I like it hard. I was never one for following orders. For one night with him, I would have sold my soul to the devil. And that’s exactly what I did. Let me tell you, hell in the company of Damon Baxter was blissfully hot. I offered him a single night of pleasure, but when he demanded another in that deep and sexy whisper, what could I say? He was my boss, and I always aimed to please…when it pleased me.

He didn’t care that I broke his rules. But was I ready to break my own?


I requested this book because the blurb sounded interesting, and to be honest, I hadn’t read an erotic romance in awhile, so I thought it was time :P.

This was ultimately a fun book, with a somewhat cool plot. I enjoyed the writing, it flowed well, and the sex scenes were greatly written – which is always a big issue with erotica, given that the sex is one of the main things in it. Actually, comparing this one with the book I read before, How Not To Fall, I have to say that this one had hardly any sex in it, eheh.

The characters were interesting, and I really liked their connection and chemistry. Samantha was a strong and independent woman, and she knew what she wanted out of life and, most importantly, and she didn’t want. Damon was also interesting, and very different from most of billionaires in these kind of books. I also really enjoyed the inclusion of family and their different relationships.

So, this books wasn’t just about the sex, the romance was actually nice, but it was still a bit of insta love, and things were definitly too fast. It would have been almost perfect if the romance has taken a little bit more time, because it was complex enough. 🙂

Ultimatly this was a nice erotic romance, and I would definitly recommend it, if you’re into this genre.
