Enter at your own risk, and always remember our number one rule—You must never speak of Crimson Elite—the punishment is severe. Creed ‘Too Hot for Words’ Christopher If God created the perfect man he would closely resemble Creed, on the outside that … closely resemble Creed, on the outside that is.

And I’m sucked in time and time again.
Like a moth to the flame, I am ready to be set alight.
Elicea ‘Fcks With My Head’ Beckham
Elicea is a firecracker. She has piqued my interest, and no one piques my interest anymore.
Beautiful women are what I do—it’s my work.
Not one of them has managed to get their claws into me the way she does. It’s as if she’s seeing my icy heart and trying to melt it, set it alight with each touch of her sinful lips.
But that can’t work, it won’t work.
Not in my world.

I can honestly say that the book Cavalier by TL Smith has led me to an immediate addiction and I can’t wait for the rest of the Crimson Elite series. This story drew me completely, I’ve read the whole thing in one evening and I was extremely disappointed that it has to end!
Blurb perfectly reflects the main characters. In addition to the captivating looks, Creed is one big enigma. You will learn as much about this man as he will show you. And although he’s surrounded by a group of beautiful women every day, it’s Elicea who grabs his attention enough to want something that he thinks he’s not capable of. Elicea knows from the very beginning that Creed is bad news. But the course of events and her desperation lead to the situation that she will see this man on the daily basis.
Their relationship is a bit like a game of cat and mouse. Chemistry between these two is explosive but both are aware that they can’t afford more. But when they forget about it for a moment … FIREWORKS! Just reading about their kiss makes you melt in the heat that explodes in this moment.
It is said that opposites attract. Is this attraction able to bring together not only two different people but also two different worlds?
Cavalier is a mysterious, dark and hella sexy read. The world created in it absorbs us and the characters are perfectly created. And I’m not just talking about the main couple. The other members of Crimson Elite immediately caught my attention and I can’t wait for their stories!
TL Smith, I’m calling you my dealer from now on because the Crimson Elite series has just become my drug!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Holy sh*t! The book blurb gives a real feel for the story but nothing prepared me for the book hangover! I can’t stop thinking about this story, which I read from cover to cover in one sitting. Creed is a partner at Crimson Elite and is in charge of recruiting the females that work there (among other, darker things). Elicea needs the job he offers and their simmering attraction leads to explosive passion, but despite her growing feelings for him can she accept the truth about the kind of man he is? I loved Elicea, who is a very strong female; and I am fascinated by Creed, who like his friends Darby, Falcon and Echo, is dark and scary. I want to know the backstory of these characters. What happened to shape them into the ruthless men they have become? The writing is fantastic and there are some truly chilling scenes as well as steamy sex scenes. This is my first read by T.L. Smith and I am awed. I can’t wait to read the next book of this mesmerizing series.
I am voluntarily reviewing an advance reader copy of this book.
Cavalier is book one in Crimson Elite series and if you loved Black and The Smirnov Bratva series you’re going to love this book. Elicea is the light to Creeds darkness however, will Elicea be able to survive in his cold dark world. A series of events change everything for this pair, their journey will be full of angst, drama, darkness but it is the light that shines from within her that just might save him from himself. A story that contains strong characters, witty moments and let’s not forget the heat and steam that radiate from this pair.
Wow!
I loved this book filled with suspense action, steamy sexual tension that is off the charts, well deserving of 5stars. This has it all. Fear uncertainly sexual chemistry, lost love loss, and such a captivating series that proves that this author delivers it all. Creed – Christopher is one cold chilling and scary and intimidating just being in his presence, yet somehow Elicea Beckham drawn to him like a moth to the flames. Read as the only wowan besides Creed’s ma turns his world upside down. Read along to discover what really happens behind the doors of the exclusive sex club Crimson Elite.
“Once you’re in, you are in. Once you’re out, you are dead”
Good lord have mercy on my soul. WTAF did I just read?
I know I’ve said it before, but my god guys T.L Smith has done it again. She has completely blown my mind.
I couldn’t wait for this to land in my kindle, so you could only imagine my reaction once it did. It was literally a case of sorry world this girl needs to read.
And read I did. I don’t even think I came up for air. I devoured it within hours.
A whole new series that starts with Creed and Elicea, and let me tell you these two are simply explosive. But what surprised me most was the instant love I felt for them both. I have fallen hard for all of T.L’s characters, but these guys……God damn!
Creed he’s all kinds of broody, dominant, cold, emotionless and simply a mystery.
Elicea on the other hand is a bright, independent, beautiful woman just trying to get by.
So you could only imagine what happens when these two, such complete opposites are drawn together in the unlikeliest of circumstances.
But the question is……Was it unlikely?
Cavalier is dark, twisted as sin, risqué and downright delicious. It is completely intoxicating and I couldn’t get enough.
An absolute killer of a read, and I mean literally!
Perfection people.
5 stars
*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
Great start to this news series though it does mention it working as a stand alone as well. Creed is one fourth of a group of guys that one and operate a hidden club. Elicea is a recently jobless bartender that was offered a job she could not refuse. Add me n some tension, arguing, and steam to get one hot romance novel that will leave you wanting to read about the other three guys. I like how it had a distinct story line to it. Great for fans of hot romance novels. I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.
I’ve read a few of T.L Smith’s books, but Cavalier is my favourite so far. I can already tell that the Crimson Elite Series is going to be amazing.
Creed Christopher and Elicea Beckham have a chemistry that neither one thought possible. An uncertainty about what will happen in their future but enough sexual tension that keeps them coming back to each other.
It’s that chemistry that makes Cavalier a must read for any reader that loves strong alpha men and even stronger female characters. I look forward to reading the rest of this series to see where the Crimson Elite series takes us.
Well.. well.. well, my dark queen is back and is bringing sexy men to love. When I first read the blurb I was intrigued and the cover got me drooling. This book got me hooked and mainly It gave me Black and Bratva vibes and was sooo happy to read the sexy and dark queen was giving us another great serie. Oh Creed you are the perfect moody, complex and hot bad boy for my heart. One thing about T. L Smith is that the heroine is always badass and strong, this was not an exception. Can’t wait to read about my other Crimson Elite boys. 5 sexy club stars.
When T.L. Smith says she has a new series coming out you know that one of her leading men is going to steal your heart. The New Crimson Elite Series is absolutely no different in fact I was a little addicted to this book from the first chapter.
Cavalier is Book 1 in the series and jam packed full of angst and suspense. These Elite boys are something else, they are a whole lot of suspense and sexy wrapped up in witty banter that will give you some laughable moments. Make no mistake though the boys of Crimson Elite are a force Not to be reckoned with.
Book 1 follows the story of Creed “Too Hot For Words” Christopher and Elicea “F*cks With My Head” Beckham. Their story is addictive, fast paced and explosive AF. I love the storyline, the characters and the depth of their journey. This series will very quickly become a favourite and each book will be hotly anticipated.
This is one of my fav new series and is a def must One Click.
Dark, Sexy, mysterious… just a couple of things that really pulled me into this story! I can already tell that this is going to be one of my favourite world weaved by the amazing Ms Smith. Cavalier is just such a good read. I loved every second of this book!
Creed…. ohhhh Creed. He is one sexy man! He is brooding and serious, and there is just something about this bad boy that makes you swoon, and you swoon HARD! I wouldn’t mind being caught up in the clutches of Creed, that’s for sure! Plus he loves his Mumma, so that is a major plus for me!
Elicea is a strong heroine. She does not take shit from anyone! I love seeing that in heroines, Elicea is not a push over at all. She enters the dark world of the Crimson Elite, soon after quitting her job. She is perfect for Creed. He needs a strong women like Elicea to keep him on his toes.
This book is everything. I could not put it down. Every page had me captivated right until the very end. I love all the books I have read from this author but she has really hit this series out of the park and it’s only book 1! I can not wait for book 2… I am waiting with bated breath to see who’s story is next! Cavalier is sexy, it’s hot, it’s AMAZING! And it would not be a book by this author if it didn’t have those twists that you don’t see coming! I just love love love this book
Another great read from T L Smith. This book reminds me of my favorite of hers Disbelief because Creed(Christopher ) is the quiet one,never speaks if not needed and his the best in his job.
Book one in a brand new series and with new characters so intriguing that you will want to read all their stories for sure.
Yes ,another Sex Club you will say ,but so different from all the other books that i’ve read by now.
Creed is sexy and hot and everything one wants but he doesn’t want anyone, treats all the women with the same respect but strictly profesional until he finds Elicea and breaks his own rule ,he wants her and give her a job at the club as a bartender.
Elicea is a firecracker, she doesn’t take one from nobody ,not even from a feared men like Creed and the attraction to him is so strong that she just can’t resist him.
Apart from the twists and turns that you don’t expect ,I personally loved one scene when he gets lost in her kiss forgetting where he is and that he never ever lets himself carried away especially in front of his friends/business partners.
Captivating from start to end, another great story with amazing chemistry and love that is making her way in the most unexpected places.
Oh My Wow! Enter into the world of the Crimson Elite, a club full of sexy Doms and the women who can bring them to their knees. Creed was the kind of alpha, dark with a heart of gold and you see what he wants you to see that I love to read. Elicea is the type of woman that is strong, knows what she wants and takes no drama from anyone. The attraction between Creed and Elicea is electric. A hot, sexy read that I recommend.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving a review.
This is the first book I have read by T.L. Smith. Cavalier is the first of the Crimson Elite series and focuses on Creed and Elicea. I enjoyed the plot, and was surprised by some of the events. I thought this story was one thing, but it was actually something else (trying to avoid spoilers here). It was more raw, gritty, and graphic than expected. I liked the male characters; they seemed like such normal guys but were, in fact, emotionless in many ways. I like Creed’s protectiveness towards the ambivalent Elicea, and Elicea’s determination to run her life her way. Small continuity error: the reader is I initially told “We come from money, each and every one of us,” but when we meet Creed’s mother, he has bought her a house & gives her money weekly. Certainly didn’t lessen my enjoyment of the story, though. I’ll check out the next instalment of this new series.
I am voluntarily leaving my opinion of a review copy of this book.
A sinfully seductive, intriguing, and thrilling story. I was pulled in from the beginning, held captive, and left smiling in the end. Creed and Elicea are absolutely perfect for one another, they just take some time realizing that. This story was not exactly what I thought it would be going into it but I enjoyed every single second. Cannot wait to read more of the Crimson Elite.
Crimson Elite
I’m hooked!
T.L. Smith was a new to me author. I’d added books to my tbr pile, popped them in Kindle and came back to Black, and became addicted.
To find Crimson Elite soon after thrilled me.
Not for the faint hearted, these worlds are cold, hard and in your face. The Crimson Elite world revolves around sex Club owners, Creed, Falcon, D and Echo.
Book one follows Creed and Elicea. To add anything further means spoilers. Old or new fans of T.L. Smith will love this series.
This book is amazing! I loved it! The storyline is awesome and the characters are fantastic! I cannot wait to read the next book in this amazing series!
**I have read a review that stated this was a cliff hanger( it was on barnes and noble)- this was a full story on these 2 characters.
I usually dont care to read 2 different view points from characters, but I enjoyed it with this book. The author made the storyline flow together seamlessly and it was easy to follow along with everything that was happening.
I will definitely be reading the rest of this series, and I suggest it to other readers who are into dark romances( the sex isn’t dark- it’s the crime,thoughts and deeds by characters, the theme of the club, etc that make it dark- but so worth the read 🙂 )
Only turn off in the book for me that I had to set it down for a moment and go oh no, not that wording- snail trail- meaning the man’s happy trail- total turn off in wording for me lol
Oh my days!
I’m in love with Creed. There, I said it
This gave me all the feels and so much more. I loved the chemistry between Elicea and Creed. Loved how she gave him a hard time and never took any of his crap. And I loved watching him grow as a character because of her. The guys cracked me up and I can’t wait to read their books
Loved it love the series.
This was a good quick read and I loved the dynamic of the guys and their club. El was an awesome heroine because she wasn’t weak, she stood up for herself and wasn’t a doormat. I loved Creed and his quiet dark demeanor he had some issues but eventually he starts to see why he’s a screw up. Overall it was a great read, quick, steamy, and enjoyable. I really hope the other guys get a book because each one is so different and amazing.
