Kaden Hansen was my whole world. I fell head over heels. 
And then he cheated on me. 
Or so I thought. I’m pretty sure, okay? 
Anyway, I ran away and refused to talk to him again. 
But what if I was wrong?
 

I don’t trust men.
My ex cheated on me with my cousin. In our bed.
And Kaden, my boyfriend, well…I think he cheated on me, too.
Confidence is a fragile thing, and mine is already shattered. So I flew back to Chicago, putting distance between us before Kaden could hurt me more.
I’ve sworn off men for good, focusing on my work and waiting for the pain to fade.
I’m over Kaden. Really, I swear. I don’t love him anymore.
It’s over.
Only a miracle could throw us back together at this point… and who believes in those, right?

This story follows after CAVEMAN and tells the second chance story of Matt's brother, Kaden. it is a standalone story and a novella.

REVIEW
A short read by Jo Raven 

I read the prequel Trouble maker after this book so sort of went about this the wrong way but in doing so concluded that trouble maker which focuses on how Hailey and Kaden meet could of been made into one book they are both short reads but having said that there is also a big jump to the insta-love and falling in love to the big fall out in Undone so in a way it fits or you would be saying there's a lot missing or there was a big gap in the story. So I'm sort of on the fence on how this could of been written it's an interesting story and a light read

In Trouble maker you learn that Hailey has run from her cheating ex, gone to a new town and meets kaden in a bar. The man marked as a trouble maker with a reputation and gossiping rumors in his wake but Hailey doesn't want to believe the rumors or warnings and lets the attraction and fate guide her and Both fall hard. 

undone is the continuation of their relationship or should I say none relationship due to the fact that they have split over up over something they should really have talked about but Hailey is a runner and as soon as there's any trouble or anything she has to face instead she runs. I liked Hailey's character but at the same time she was annoying, she's marmite but not in a bad way.  

undone is told in dual pov's it's an interesting story, Kaden has an accident and has amnesia and so as a result thinks that he and Hailey are still together. Hailey not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings and to assist Kaden's recovery goes along with still being his girlfriend.

There was humor, I had a few laugh out loud moments and there is also hotness, no cheating, no angst I enjoyed it.

At first glance, I’m nothing out of the ordinary. I am a daughter. A sister. A friend. When you look at me you won’t see anything that warrants suspicion. I don’t look like a criminal.

My name is Hannah Whalen, but most people know me as freed0mov3rdr1v3, or “Freedom Overdrive”—one of the world’s most prolific and notorious hacktivists. My goal—my purpose—is to shed light on the evil that lurks behind the corporate and government lies we have been force-fed for too long.

My story begins with the best possible intention. Devoting my life to exposing the corrupt. The dishonest. The unethical. For that, they label me a cyber-terrorist. Wanted by the FBI, I’ve always been one step ahead.

Until I fell in love.

Because I’m sleeping with the man who’s hunting me. And he has no idea that I am his prey. Now I have to decide what’s more important: my freedom or my heart.

REVIEW

Secrets and Lies 

What started off as a slow burn read really caught fire to the end. Up until just over half way my interest was finally being piqued other that just the curiosity that had me turning the pages up to that point the suspense became gripping. 

​Hannah is just an ordinary woman but also secretly a hacker, her plan is to take down all those that caused hurt to her family after her father died
and her sister was left with disability' after a car accident that never should of happened on a road that was dangerous but nothing was done due to money cuts. Hannah is out for revenge on those that should of prevented the death of her father and injury of her sister, the pharmaceutical companies, the law firm that didn't help them, all those she feels have done wrong, she uses her skills for justice, exposes them,takes them down,shes like vigilante in the cyber world. 

Mason is an FBI agent trying to crack the case of Freedom overdrive which is the code name for the hacker destroying companies after their crimes are exposed but what the hacker is doing is also criminal and Mason won't stop until they are found. 

A chance meeting in a cafe becomes not only a romance but a whirlwind of lies and hidden agendas on Hannah's part and Mason becomes the innocent party, he is just a man falling in love with a person who isn't really who they fully claim to be. 

Lies are always exposed in the end and mason is good at his job to be able to put clues together but he doesn't want to believe the clues and what has been right under his nose. 

Gripping and intense in the latter part of the plot and I felt with only a few more chapters It could of been concluded but I discovered this is a duet and ends on a cliffhanger.  I am hoping book two isn't as slow going in the first half as this was and the best is saved for last again. 

I enjoyed Exploited it was a good plot told in dual pov and any reader who loves this kind of plot with cyber crime and suspense would love it. A few quick hot scenes thrown in and interesting characters. I may read book 2 but I'm not overly excited or too eager about doing so.

A Dark Billionaire Romance

How far would you go to save someone you love? Would you give up your body? Your mind? Your heart? 

I did and it cost me everything. 

He says he owns me. And it’s true. 

I’ve signed over complete control of my body and life for six months to a man I don’t know. Five years he’s been planning this. They say revenge is a dish best served cold. But my blackmailer serves it up white hot. He’s addicted to my innocence, and I’m addicted to him. 

He likes to hurt me. I love to let him. He brings me to life. He sets me free. He makes my heart feel things it shouldn’t. 

But he also scares me. He holds the fate of my brother’s life in his hands. A life behind bars for crimes I know he didn’t commit. My blackmailer can’t give up his revenge on my family, and I can’t be with him if he doesn’t. But I’m nothing more than a butterfly caught in his net. Do I really have a choice

REVIEW 

Echo is Part 1 in bleeding hearts duet AND what a hot read it was!  

The story begins with Brighton as a teenager and the impending doom of her brother going into prison for being involved in the deaths of a family.






With the pleas of Brighton's  brother to move away after he goes into prison for her safety she does so to then sharing an apartment and needing a job to which her new friend and flat mate helps out with.  
​When Brighton receives a note regarding evidence that can give her brother freedom she feels she has no choice but to submit to the demands of the letter and in the process becoming the masked mans submissive which is kind of exciting and freaky in one but very hot. At this point there is only one person you know without a doubt it could be and that's her new billionaire boss Ryland.  


There are so many twists and turns and a tangled web within Echo. Ryland is consumed with revenge for his family's deaths and like a pawn in a game Brighton becomes an important piece in his execution to the destruction of Brighton's brother.

Ryland's plan is to take down Brighton's brother and all he loves but what he didn't plan on was falling for Brighton in the process. 

A Billionaire out for revenge & an innocent woman caught up in a bloody revenge battle between the two men she loves.

lies,deceit,truth,lies, it's ongoing. Echo is filled with suspense, breath catching moments and I was eagerly wanting to know how it was all going to unfold. 

Another thrilling and captivating read from A Zavarelli told in dual pov's. Leads to cliffhanger due to this being a duet.

Degraded. Ravaged. Dirty 

I fuck. It’s all I’m good for.
People pay thousands just to have a taste of me.
I have to obey for the sake of my brother. As long as I’m the perfect slave, David remains safe.

Damaged but not Destroyed

Dirty is a gripping raw and emotional story that grabs you from the very fist pages as Jack shares his dark and degraded life as a sex slave. It's not a gradual look into Jacks life you are thrown head first into the dark and deprived life of a boy who becomes a man with no choices of morals or conduct or freedom, no say in right or wrong, a slave to the highest bidder.




​From a boy who witnessed the death of his own mother and then turned into a sex slave by his own father, Jacks road to freedom is gruesome and heartbreaking. 

River becomes Jack's saviour but also has a dark past of her own that haunts her and she strives  to pay for the sins of her father by freeing sex slaves, giving them a new life on her plantation which has become a community. River and Adam her colleague pose as a couple to buy slaves at auctions, the price is costly and the lives they save are few.

This is no hearts and flowers read, Jack endures beatings and has to perform acts one can't comprehend. Like the flowers Jack has grown accustomed to tending in the garden there is a likeness to Jacks own spirit, Once free Jack begins to grow like a a seed breaking through the darkness and into the light that river waters. 

A moving story by Michelle Horst and a gripping plot, story told in dual pov's and leads to hea.

Scarlett- 

When going to war, there are three very simple rules one must abide by. 

1. Know thy enemy 
2. Be prepared to sacrifice. 
3. Always wear good shoes 

After all, revenge is a dish best served in stilettos. 
I’ve got an eye for it, and nothing’s going to stand in my way. 






​Not even Rory ‘The Saint’ Brodrick. 
He’s a fool if he thinks he can change me. By the time I’m through with him, I’ll make his mafia look like child’s play. 

Cross me, Mr. Brodrick? 
You better cross your heart and hope to die. 

Rory- 

I’m a fighter. A hustler. A mobster. 
I’ve seen a few things in my day. 
But I’ve never encountered anything like her. 
She's a beauty with a beast of a heart. The poison apple I just can't resist. And in her trail she leaves a wake of men crawling on their knees. 
What she doesn’t know is that I like my women wild. 
It only makes it that much more fun to tame them. 

**This is a DARK mafia romance. A full-length standalone novel with HEA and no cheating.**

​REVIEW


Satan meets Saint 

Shes the devil in disguise, a vigilante,a woman who is out for revenge and justice with her own rules. Scarlett is bitter, dislikes people,crowds and trusts no-one and is determined to spill the blood of the men who took her innocence when she was a girl about to embark upon adulthood, one by one they pay. 

Scarlett is the friend of Mack from book 1 even then she was a mystery, someone with her own d a story to tell. 

Rory is one of the Italian Mafia syndicate, a foot soldier of Crow, a fighter and when he is drawn to the closed off woman that is Scarlett, 
Rory discovers he is about to embark in a new a fight outside the ring and Sarlett plays dirty.. 


I loved Rory's character and I was fearful for him, a fighter with a soft heart that was about to be eaten up by Scarlett and her schemes, using him as a pawn in her twisted games but the Ice queen began to soften as the plot progressed. 

This series is brilliant, Rory is one of my favourite characters and scarlett well, she is a total bad-ass. All female characters in this series are woman with backbone and determination. Each plot gripping, intense, hot and filled with danger and unpredictability. A captivating read from start to finish. The Boston Underworld series has become one of my favourite if not the most favourite Mafia reads. 

Grittiness,danger,excitement,hotness,brilliant characters and plot. Another 5 star read for me. 

Hoping for more in this series and looking forward to reading more from A Zavarelli. 

Told in dual pov's can be read as a stand alone but highly recommend starting from the beginning with Crow.


​* Listened on audio and the narration is brilliant, Tracy Marks with her Irish accent and transition from Male to Female roles is outstanding.

Crow by A. Zavarelli

All I know is that the thought of his hands and mouth on my body is making me feel things I never expected. There’s some sort of dark energy pulling us together, growing more powerful by the second. I can’t even really be sure what it is. I feel like I’m drugged, high.

Possessive Biker Alert

Monroe Lee is a handful.
She fights me, challenges me and tries to resist me.

Where I’m jagged, she’s smooth.
Where I’m dark, she’s pure.
Where I’m broken, she’s whole.

I am not a good man.
I’ve hurt everyone I’ve ever loved.
I should walk away before I ruin her too.

But fuck, we are fire together.
And I’ve been out in the cold too long.


At a time when everything is falling down around me, she might just be my saviour.


This story contains all the panty-melting sexiness and alpha goodness that Nina Levine books are known for.

REVIEW

I took I ride with Hyde and loved the journey 

Nina Levine, what can I say, I love this woman's books, I'm never disappointed, I cant say the series gets better its just good from start to whatever comes next, good quality MC reads that are well balanced with hotness drama,club business and plot. 

There's great captivating characters in Hyde's Absolution. 





Monroe is a ball buster a women outspoken,sassy,bossy, ready to settle down but just can't find the right man, Monroe is a woman who could only fit someone like Hyde with his bossy Alpha ways and temper, a man with a troubled past and in the need of a good straight talking woman to bring balance and he definitely found that with Monroe. 

A slow burn romance told in Hyde's pov at first giving you his history with his wife and daughter and what lead to him now being in Story MC. 

Monroe owns a Tattoo parlor and is friends with Tatum from the previous book. 

What starts off as an itch to be scratched becomes more. I loved it! another great addition to this awesome series. 

Everything I love in an Mc book I can always find with Nina Levine's there's no over the top angst,bloodshed or grittiness but there is hotness an alpha male and a sassy strong heroine

​Looking forward to King's story.

And make her my wife.

REVIEW

THIS SERIES CONTINUES TO BLOW ME AWAY!

I am absolutely loving this series 


Great characters. Alexei is a Russian mafia boss and Talia is the friend of Mack who went missing in the first book Crow. 

Each book is interconnected and some scenes from Alexei or Talias point of view you revisit as other characters from previous books interact with them.  For example when Talia calls Mack to let her know she is OK in the first book you see this from Talia's side and the build up to her making that call. 

I'm loving it. You don't have to read in order and each can be read as a standalone but I recommend reading from the first book Crow. 

The first two books are Irish mafia whereas Ghost is Russian Mafia based. 

The back story for both characters tugs on the heart and the fact they see a likeness in each other and Alexei rescues Talia from her captors is a gripping and heartwarming story. 

It's gritty there are scenes of rape and it's on the dark side but I love that about it, its raw,gritty and leads to a well deserved hea. 

A Zavarelli was a new author for me before Crow and I can't wait to jump into other books in this series as well as those that aren't 

Ghost has everything I would look for in a Mafia read

AUDIO: I listened to this on audio, previous books I thought the narrator was brilliant at the Irish accent and going from male to female but with Alexei she reverted back to the Irish twang with some sentences but it did not spoil the story.

The way he is staring at me disturbs me on a different level. He isn’t just looking. He’s seeing. All of my darkest secrets. The part of me that nobody ever gets to see. But he does. My armor means nothing to him.

REVIEW 


Day Seven. The last day in the game series. 

I was beyond eager to read this. The final day in these seven days of mind games with twists and turns with three rich and powerful men and one sacrificial lamb, Ella. 

The why, the reason, the prize? I'm still trying to comprehend and figure that out. 


​Three is finally revealed and oh what a twist, I can honestly say I wasn’t expecting that. 

The game series is a brilliant concoction of questions,suspense,lust,lies and manipulation and now it's finally over I want to read them all over again back to back. 


These two authors never fail to deliver the shock factor in whatever form it may come.

Ball Peen Hammer By Lauren Rowe: Review & buy Links

Picture
Picture
From the USA Today and Internationally bestselling author of The Club Series, Lauren Rowe, comes a sexy standalone romantic comedy: Ball Peen Hammer.

Keane Morgan wouldn’t return any of my calls or texts, and I was pissed as hell about it. I didn’t want to drive from Seattle to L.A. with the guy any more than he wanted to drive with me, but I had no frickin’ choice in the matter--at least, not if I wanted to use his brother Dax’s coveted parking spot at UCLA. 

Okay, so it turned out Keane was objectively gorgeous, and, fine, pretty funny, too. But did he have to be so damned in love with himself? I mean, jeez, the cocky way he flashed those dimples was just so orchestrated. And, honestly, what kind of guy uses the phrase “baby doll” with a straight face? Oh, that’s right: the kind of guy who’s a male stripper. 

Yup, the cocky jerk turned out to be Seattle’s answer to Magic Mike, a stripper known as “Ball Peen Hammer”--which meant Keane Morgan was emphatically not the kind of guy I’d ever fall for. 

Not. At. All.

No freakin’ way.

Well, until Keane convinced me to fall for him, that is. 

Which I did.

Hard.

NOTE:

Ball Peen Hammer is a full-length, standalone sexy romantic comedy about Keane Morgan (one of four Morgan brothers introduced in The Club Series) and Maddy Milliken (the little sister of Hannah Banana Montana Milliken). 

Although Keane and Maddy’s love story is set in the universe of The Club Series, it is a standalone novel with no cliffhanger and no prior reading required. Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

Picture
Ball Peen Hammer is an easy read, a Good Rom Com that will give you plenty giggles. 

I have to admit when I first started reading I found it over the top funny, the things keane Morgan says is like when someone is trying to over impress someone and it just isn't funny, it's more annoying but I grew to except that this was just Keane,  he says the most stupid and outrageous things including over the top funny quotes. 

He calls himself a handsome and happy lad among other self complimenting words and he pops his dazzling smile and dimple when the mood fits, which is often for the ladies. 

I grew to like this annoying boy called Keane Morgan, the stripper other wise known as Ball Peen hammer. 

Maddy and Keane meet when arrangements are made by their siblings to travel together from Seattle to L.A.

Maddy is due to move in with her sister travelling across state, Maddy's sister Hannah who is in LA has a neighbor who's brother Keane is also going to be making a trip to visit and audition for some jobs. Hannah gives Maddy Keane's details to make travel arrangements so she isn't making the long trip alone. 

Maddy and keane don't hit it off straight away, on top of Keane ignoring Maddy Milliken's  messages for days thinking she's some stalker then Keane's best friends sending Maddy Milliken a dick pic, he also turns out to be the biggest self proclaimed man-whore she has ever met, Keane claims no woman can resist him.  

Two days of travelling though have them hitting it off more like best friends, Keane can't get over Maddy being able to resist his charms though and is surprised she not once tries it on with him and he tries every trick in his book, he's never been friend-zoned, Maddy believes in chemistry and Keane just doesn't give it to her, well not at first anyway. It turns out maddy likes Kean more than the ball Peen Hammer side of him he puts out.

Ball peen hammer is a funny story with a heartwarming hea and an over the top charismatic hot funny guy, a good light read to settle down with and you get a good fix of all that is Keane Morgan.

Deuce:
The first moment I stared into Ally’s tortured blue eyes, my subconscious knew I’d never escape her. She called to the darkest part of my soul and made it impossible to ignore the strange pull I felt towards her.
Some things are just meant to be.
As long as we were both breathing, my heart would do time with hers. Like the famous outlaw lovers, Bonnie and Clyde, Ally and I committed the perfect crime. I claimed her heart, and she stole mine.
I only meant to save her.
To heal her.
Now, my past threatens to ruin her.
Wanted dead or alive, I’ve got her by my side and together we’ll ride.
​


Ally:
I thought the world forgot me.
That I had died at fourteen.
But, I never knew life until I knew him.
Rescued and healed, I found love in the face of an outlaw.
Whether he fails or flies, I’ll ride until I die.
I’m his Bonnie and he’s my Clyde.
A love as strong as ours will never die.

REVIEW 

Like a lit match to gasoline, Ally and I were made to create fire. 

Me and my ride or die girl.

4.5 stars

Roamer is a great MC read. Filled with action, new beginnings, a couple finding home in each other while surrounded by chaos and a plot with deeper meanings. 

Ally was taken when she was just 14 , used, abused, made lucid with drugs and in the process becoming an addict, Ally lost years of her life to the men who took her. First kisses, first dates Ally wasn't just taken parts of herself were stolen too. 
​


Deuce is on the run from his last MC, brought up in the life until his father dies which he thinks his own men were a part of, Deuce becomes a nomad until he settles with the Arlington chapter grateful to Jack who saves him.

Deuce comes across Ally when staking out and visiting another club he sees a skinny girl and an addict but when something goes down he ends up rescuing her. 

This isn't a fairytale romance but Deuce was definitely in the right place at the right time and fate played a part in bringing two people who were meant to be together on the same path.

There's enemies,violence and shootings, hot moments and more than enough to keep you turning the pages as a beautiful relationship also unfolds. 

Ally's strength is admirable and Deuce plays a big part in her healing.

Roamer has a captivating and gripping plot with characters you can't help but root for as they face demons of the past and look to the future together.

SYNOPSIS
Nikolai Alexei Young was born with a special gift…one he’d do anything to lose. The heart and soul of every person he comes into contact with is an open book to his heightened senses. Colorful emotions, whispers of thoughts, the sour tastes of old memories…He feels them all. The sci-fi books would call him an empath. For Nikolai, his ability has made him an exile. He roams the U.S. alone, avoiding the glut of life in big cities, and using his innate talents to win money in underground poker games. Just enough to keep going, one town to the next. He has no hope that his life can be anything else, until he meets her…

At nineteen, Fiona Starling was trapped in an ugly, desperate situation until she freed herself the only way she knew how. Now three years later, living outside Savannah, Georgia, she is rebuilding her life on her own terms; seizing every moment and saving every penny so that she might fulfill her dream of moving to the raw wilderness of Costa Rica. But behind her carefree smile beats the heart of a lonely young woman haunted by her past, until a chance encounter with a tattooed stranger changes everything…
Fiona takes Nikolai under her roof for three sultry nights, waiting out the rain of a summer storm. She grows more and more fascinated by this brooding stranger with whom she shares an intense physical connection—a connection so strong, she wonders if there is something between them beyond lust and passion. Nikolai is shocked to discover that Fiona calms the raging turmoil in his heart. She alone silences the din of other people’s lives, and envelops him in the sweet beauty of her inner self. Every moment he’s with her—every touch of her skin—brings him closer to the peace that’s been eluding him his entire life.
But Fiona harbors secrets that she is too terrified to reveal. After Nikolai confesses his unique ability, she is caught between wanting to believe him and fearing he’ll eventually unearth her own dark past. When the unthinkable happens, Fiona’s plans come crashing down, and Nikolai discovers his hated ability might be the only thing that can save the woman he loves.

REVIEW 

4.5 Love and Hope stars. 

Sugar & Gold is such a beautiful story and one that captures you're imagination. 

Completely different to any book I've read previously and I haven’t read a book by this author before & I loved it!. 

A BEAUTIFUL STORY THAT WILL TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY








​Nik has a gift, he can see,feel,taste emotions/thoughts which he calls the Ken. 


Nik doesn't see what he has as a gift or a blessing but a curse one that has brought him loneliness, he travels from place to place playing poker like a lost soul carrying the burden of his gift knowing that no one would understand it or could even explain it. Professionals tried and failed him as a child.

Fiona was living a life under a new identity, she lived with hopes of one day fulfilling her dreams of freedom in her ideal destination. Fiona was a woman who had fled a controlling relationship, had made new friends but until she had saved enough money was still aiming for her new destination of forever where she could finally feel free. 

With only months to go until Fiona had enough money to move Nik in all his tattood glory and hotness rolled into town on his motorbike at the right devine moment. 

A relationship that was destined to be was birthed along with a beautiful heartwarming journey. 

An inspiring story told in dual pov's and leads to a hea.

Sasha. 

He’s dark and mysterious. Quiet and lethal. 
An Irish mobster. 
Pure sin wrapped up in a beautiful package. 
But there’s also something off about him. 
He doesn’t feel anything. He shows no emotions. 
Sometimes I question his humanity. 
He hasn’t spoken to me in two years. Not a single word. 
But we share a secret, he and I. 
And if it ever comes out, I have no doubt in my mind… 
He won’t have a problem killing me too. 





​Ronan.
 
I’ve slain for her. I’ll do it again. 
When it comes to Sasha, there isn’t a line I won’t cross. 
I watch her. She doesn’t know it. 
She thinks I hate her. Sometimes, I think I might too. 
But I’m always there, lurking in the shadows. 
Craving her. Trying to keep the beast within at bay. 
I’ll keep her safe. I’ll slaughter anyone who tries to hurt her. 
The only thing I can’t do… is protect her from myself. 

Picture
REVIEW

His words doused me with gasoline, his eyes light the match. 

Phew! I loved Crow and the Alpha Mafia boss Lachlan but Ronan, strong,silent with a dark & gruesome past, I loved his character even more. 

Tortured and held captive as a child, a stolen childhood. Ronan is all man but very much a small boy inside, still trying to comprehend the whirlwind of feelings and emotions and Sasha is the right woman who gradually brings this complex man peace. 

Ronan has been fascinated with Sasha since he first met her at the club which is owned by the mafia syndicate, he silently watches her, secretly looks out for her, he doesn't know what to do with the feelings he has for her only to protect. 

Sasha is a strong character with a meekness and calm about her, she gave up any college dreams to work and pay for her sick mother's medical bills and to send her sister to school then college by becoming a dancer. 

Ronan becomes Sasha's savior when she faces danger and they start to spend time together and begin to act on the pull they both have towards each other. 

You gradually begin to see a new side to Ronan from the man of few words to an overprotective Alpha, someone who would lay his life down for the woman he loves. 

Danger, action,hotness, Reaper has it all. A brilliant Mafia romance with great characters. If you have read Crow you will be pleased to know you also get glimpses of Lachlan and Mac. 

Recommended Mafia romance. 

Told in dual pov's, leads to hea.

EXCERPTS
 
Excerpt 1 – The Billionaire’s Secret Kiss by Ivy Layne
 
I was late. I'm never late.
Twenty minutes to get to campus. I had a two o’clock appointment with my thesis advisor. Oliver was trying to see if he could get me put back on our project even though I wasn't currently enrolled in the master’s program.
It was a long shot, and I didn't want to blow it by being late.
I hated to interrupt a meeting, but I’d told my bosses I needed a few hours off this afternoon, and I had to hand over my charge before I left. Cradling baby Rosie against my shoulder, I nudged the door to the office open with my hip, saying, "I'm so sorry to interrupt, but it's one forty and –"
I looked up and my breath froze in my lungs.
Noah Endicott was sitting across the room. He lounged in the chair opposite Vance's desk, his brown eyes wide with surprise and fixed on mine.
"Ella?"
That was all he said. Just Ella.
I wasn't much better. I didn't say anything. I just stared.
It was Noah, but not my Noah. My Noah wore faded T-shirts with geeky engineering jokes. My Noah's dark hair was long enough to fall into his eyes. My Noah had a sweet smile.
My Noah had broken my heart.

Excerpt 2 – Undeniable by K.C. Falls

 
Kurt sat with his back to her—just another tall, blond gringo sipping his morning coffee to take away the misty chill of the mountains. He held his newspaper close to his face and the grin he couldn't stop. He could hear every word exchanged.
She sounded just like he remembered her—all sass and spice. Here was a woman. His woman. And she was all he had ever wanted. His mate, never forgotten.
"Well, you were educated abroad. So tell me . . . What would be the I.Q. of a rock?"
"Doña, the rock has no intelligence. So it would be nought."
"Your British schooling is showing, but that's correct. A rock has zero intelligence. So, when I say that your cousin Analis is as 'dumb as a box of rocks' you now know what I mean!"
"Jefa, this is the fourth cousin you don't like. I am running out of cousins."
"Don't bullshit me, Juan. You have an endless supply of cousins. All I need is someone who can follow simple directions. This is cooking, Juan. We're not building the Panama Canal here. I want a girl or even a guy—if your asshole-macho-culture would permit—who can follow a few stinking directions. Why is this so hard?"
"Jefa . . ."
"Stop with the Jefa, the Doña and all the rest. You can grovel 'til the cows come home and it won't change the fact that this is the fourth barely grown girl you've served up who cannot carry out something that my kid could do while plugged into his video games, eating a sandwich and scratching his balls all at the same time. Dios mio, Juan. Are you the only one in your vast family who inherited any brains at all?"
Kurt wondered if he had heard right. Did she say my kid? A son?

REVIEW 
Ignite by Amity cross


Book 11 of the beat and pulse series. Can be read as a stand-alone, leads to he a, told in dual povs. 

Another good fighter romance from Amity Cross. 

Ali is a girl who is bullied by the more popular girls or women who should know better in her office, she's a lone not by choice, doesn't stand out in a crowd but fades into the background. Alison lives alone and has no-one in her life. 

Overhearing the other girls at work talk about the fighters and cage fighting her curiosity is piqued and she goes to see what it's all about at an underground fight.

Liam or Blade as he's called rescues Ali when she finds herself in a dangerous situation.

Liam is drawn to Ali maybe it's their similarities, both alone both afraid of being left alone again if they commit to anyone. Liam for that reason doesn't commit to anyone, only has one night stands and keeps people at a distance. 

Liam begins to Ali confidence and she starts to blossom. Liam still has his fears.

A good story, I suppose the moral is taking a chance against your fears and fighting for what's in your gut. 

Ignite is Hot in all the right places, great characters, a story of fate and another enjoyable read from Amity Cross. 

Ignite is part of Dark desires box set. This book alone would have me reading the box set.

My childhood was perfect.

I’ve led a charmed life, and I’m not going to blow it now by picking the wrong guy.

I’ve got my sights set on my brother’s best friend.

He’s known my family for years. He’s reliable and kind and handsome.

Sure, he’s been avoiding me since I was six.

I’m a bit aggressive for him, maybe.

But he’s the one… right?

Picture
REVIEW 

"Don't waste too much time chasing the wrong guy or you might miss the right one"

Right is a fun read, no heavy drama or angst it has a great balance of hot moments in the right places and humorous witty dialogue. 

Everly is vivacious, she's a great character. She's had a crush on her brothers best friend Finn since she was six, her whole life from that point is aimed in the direction of Finn Camden from her scrap book dedicated to him with her future plans, practising writing her new name to following him to the same college were he is starting his career as a teacher. 

Everly is ballsy, devious in her planning, a stalker and determined to get her man, only this man doesn't see her as anything but his friends sister and Everly just doesn't see it.

You could say Everly is blinded by and obsessed with the notion of being Mrs Finn Camden one day. Until Sawyer Camden barges into her life turning all her aspirations upside-down. 

Sawyer is the older brother to Finn, he's a perfect match for Everly, he's brash and pushy and just like her. 

A college break and a visit home to her parents form a plan for Everly where she finally decides to make her move on Finn, their both returning to the same college so Everly devises a plan to get a ride back with Finn spending hours in the same car. Everly's plan of getting a drive back to campus backfires, she not only discovers Finn is returning a different day when she arrives at his house with her brother but also Finn has a brother Sawyer who also lives in the same area and he offers to take her home. 

Everly has to endure hours of a drive with a guy who she just met but who infuriates her for some unexplained reason. 

It's love at first sight for Sawyer who bulldozes into Everly's life not taking no for an answer with his wooing, the tables turn and the stalker becomes the stalked. 

Right has great characters and a good plot, a really enjoyable read told in Everly's pov and the Epilogue in Sawyers.

Hawk Larson left small-town Indiana to become one of the most famous quarterbacks on the planet, throwing winning passes for the Bears and living the dream. Life looked picture-perfect from the outside, but after five years, he still can't shake the memory of the one thing he left behind...the girl who owned his heart and crushed it one fateful night. 

After an injury benches Hawk for good, he returns to the town he left, confronting the past and running headfirst into an unexpected future.

Life hasn't been easy in the five years since he left, and Morgan Quinn isn't the same girl she once was, her luscious hourglass curves and stubborn streak the only reminders of everything he left behind. She still rattles him to the core and leaves him craving more, but Morgan has a secret. A secret that may change the game for good. 

Warning: When Hawk finally sees his Morgan again, he isn't sure if it's love or hate he's feeling, until fireworks fly at first touch and passion overcomes reason, leaving Hawk with the realization that he must protect his girl at all costs.

A hot,short second chance and secret baby romance 

I liked it. Hawk and Morgan were teenage first loves and thought it would be forever until Hawk hit stardom in Pro ball. 

Morgan not wanting to hold Hawk back leaves him by returning home with her secret breaking both their hearts. 

Hawk returns to his home town years later following retirement and bumps into Morgan, he still loves her but hates her for leaving him until he discovers her secret. 

A quick, hot, enjoyable sexy read told in dual pov's

SYNOPSIS

WARNING: This novel contains explicit language, sexual situations, and is the story of an addict. This material is intended for a mature audience. 

"My name's Jag Steele. I’m the lead singer and guitarist to the band Pandemic Sorrow, and I have a drug problem. Well, I mean it's not really a problem – unless you count the fact that I almost made my heart explode from all the blow I shoved up my nose a few weeks back..." 

That was my introduction during my first stint in rehab. I'm messed up. If you asked anybody who I am there’s a list they will go down: Famous, rock star, legend, drug addict, womanizing man-whore, but if you asked me, I wouldn't have the first idea of what to say, because I don’t know who Jag Steele is. Really, I’m living every other damn person's dream, and all I want is reality. 

Roxy Slade, that girl was my reality. My brutally flawed and beautifully broken reality. And she hated everything I stood for. To her I was just one of “those guys”, and she’d rather be buried alive with poisonous snakes than give someone like me a piece of toilet paper to wipe their ass with. Brutal. Life. Is. Brutal. And it is just a giant pain, which is why I chase after anything to make it numb, anything that can fill this void. I just want anything that can make me not feel. I just don't want to feel.

​REVIEW
​
We were shells. Everybody's broken, chipped, damaged, and we just have to find the one person that can accept our flaws and love them, the one that can take the ugliest part of us and paint something beautiful with it. 

Review
Jag the book was a good read. Jagger or Jag as he became on stage was an ordinary guy who got swept away with fame and fortune when he became a rock-star, lost his high-school girlfriend along with his morals. 

Jag became addicted to women,drink and drugs. 

Roxy was a girl who just wasn't blinded by his fame or charm, it was no secret Jag was an addict and having lost her brother to the same addictions Roxy had no time for him despite her younger sister being a huge fan. 

Roxy's attitude towards Jag was the thing that attracted her to him, Roxy was real in a world of false. 

I would like to say Roxy became Jag's new addition but it wasn't a fairy-tale romance and it got painfully real before it got better, Jag had been an addict for years. 

I liked Jag, I liked the characters despite how messed up they were, the plot I thought would of had more punch if it was a shorter read and contained less dialect. There was a lot going on prior to Jag meeting Roxy with Jags partying, drugs,women, his time with the band. I kinda got the gist, this is were it could of been shorter and it was losing me up until he met Roxy. 

A good story that doesn't skirt around the edges, it's straight up in your face gruesome details of the sex,drugs and rock and roll lifestyle told in Jag's pov. 

Jag does leads to a hea and is a standalone in a series.

An Irish mobster. A missing friend. Two loyalties, ripping me apart. 

I had a plan. 

Get in, get my information, and get out. Easy, right?

Turns out, infiltrating the Irish mafia isn’t exactly what I thought it would be. I just wanted a soldier. Someone I could flirt with to get me in the door. 

That’s when Lachlan Crow noticed me. Problem was, he wasn’t a soldier. No, he was next in line for the throne of the Irish underworld. And he was determined to hate me from the outset. My sob story about needing a job? Yeah, he wasn’t buying that either. 

Too bad for him, I won’t let anyone get in the way of my mission. 

Who cares if we have some kind of crazy chemistry? He’s the worst kind of wrong- and I would never in a million years be with a guy like him. 

Because they took her from me, and I’m going to make them pay.

REVIEW

I LOVED THIS BOOK!! 

My second book by this author my first being beast which I also loved. 










​A great Mafia romance with a tough mafia leader and a strong lead heroine Mackenzie. 

Mackenzie is a tough chick the daughter of a fighter who was killed by the Russians, she is half American half Irish. When her friend goes missing Mackenzie plans and executes a mission to get herself into the Mafia meet up place, she first wins a fight against one of the mafia's own then auditions to be a dancer. Mackenzie is hard,stubborn,and determined to find her friend what she didn't plan on was to fall for The Irish mob boss Lachlan.

I was gripped, Crow was one of those reads were anything could happen at any time with the unpredictability. 

A great Mafia read that will lead me onto the next book. 

Hot moments,danger,action, told in dual pov's, Loved It!

Listened on Audible I loved the accents, If you struggle with dialect while reading I suggest the audio which also brings everything more to life.. 

Lachlan 
"Tell me your mad about me and will do anything for me"

"I'm mad about you" I repeat between kisses "and I would, without a doubt, do anything for you, for as long as we have together"

"And your mine, now and for always"

"now and for always" I echo "For as long as we have together""

Carver Jones’ partner at Jones + Gallum had to step down for medical reasons. He’s absolutely devastated. He swears. Just ignore his cheeky grin, okay?

When word reaches his fancy corner office that Gallum is replacing himself with his daughter, Amity, Carver is ecstatic. 

For real this time. 

Jones squashes men in the business industry flat. A woman? Pfst. He’ll be completely in charge in no time, doing whatever he wants. He’s so ready for this. 

But is he ready to fight the hardest fight of his life? No, not the one to maintain control of his company. The one to keep control of his heart.

The battle may begin in the boardroom, but the war will definitely be won in the bedroom. May the best sex win.

Picture
REVIEW 
​
Battle of the sexes is a quick office romance type read, oozing with chemistry. 

Jones & Gallum a leading company over the restaurant empire or industry has just had an announcement that Mr Gallum is officially retiring following his old partner Mr Jones. 

Carver and Amity have known each other their whole lives being the children of friends and business partners of Jones & Gallum. 

Carver Jones has been awaiting the opportunity for a long time he's currently president and feels the CEO position is in the bag, hes cocky, confident but things don't work out the way he plans. 

Amity Gallum has worked for successful companies helped them get to the top, travelled so when her father asks her to put in for the position of CEO before the board and pitch against Carver Jones the battle is on. 

Neither have seen each other in years and Amity has a lot of resentment and hurt over some childhood action by Carver the battle lines are drawn for her but Carver has changed and doesn't see the girl in braces anymore. 

A good office romance or childhood friends to lovers romance however you want to view it. 

Battle of the Sexes is fun, hot, has great characters it's not to short and I felt it covered everything perfectly as much as a longer book, a good story were you get all that matters and the best bits. 

Told in dual pov's a recommended read.

Jet McAlister has a secret. Eddie Chavez has the hots for Jet (not to mention Eddie’s just plain hot). Jet has too many problems to realize that Eddie’s interested. Eddie loses patience when Jet ends her waitressing shift at a strip club with a knife at her throat. Since Eddie’s a cop, he figures he can help. Since Jet’s used to solving everyone’s problems she doesn’t want Eddie’s help.
​
Throw in a Dolly Parton look-alike, a gruff but lovable strip club owner, Jet’s ne’er do well father, his ne’er do well friend, Bear, Bear’s long-suffering, chain-smoking wife Lavonne and the crew from Rock Chick and you’ve got Rock Chick Rescue.

Rock Chick Rescue takes you on a wild ride with Jet, Eddie and the gang as they wrestle bad guys in a bagel shop, hit Denver’s backstreet poker tables (with big hair), and help the strippers at Smithie’s take down a would-be murderer.

Through this, Jet’s got to learn that even when life made you give up your dreams, you can still end up with the (hot) guy. Eddie’s got to rescue Jet from a bad man (so he can do better things with her) and teach her that some dreams can come true.

REVIEW

Eddie Chavez.... Welcome to my BBf shelf 

Seriously this is the second book in this series, I loved it. A fabulous balance of everything I love in a contemporary romance. Danger,a fun vibe,hotness,great characters,a hot male, danger,suspense and sexy times. 






​Rock Chick rescue has a similar feel to the first book, Jet has bad people after her due to her dad having debts and gets herself in dangerous situations, she gets kidnapped,threatened,has a gun to her head but Kristen has written this in such a brilliant way with these characters you can't help but laugh at the situations these girls get themselves into. 

Jet is one of those girls who is hot,pretty and doesn't see herself that way so when Eddie hotness Chavez starts to take notice of jet who works in Fortnams a Coffee/bookstore with Indy from the previous book, she see's her self as out of his league and just plain Jet. Jet will infuriate you but you will also laugh at her naivety.

Eddie is on a mission to get the girl and prove she is anything but just Plain Jet. 

I laughed so many times throughout, listened on audio which really brought everything to life. I can't recommend enough. 

looking forward to reading more in this series, they really do brighten up my day.

BLURB
 
There are ugly truths 
and pretty lies.
When I lost them, 
I chose neither. 
I wrapped myself in silence.
My husband, my best friend, became a stranger who gave up.
 
Then…
he 
moved in next door, and everything changed.
You think you know this story,
but you don’t. 
Be careful what you ask for because the answer may not come the way you think.

AUTHOR BIO

I'm obsessed with blowing kisses. I guess that makes me a romantic. I love books and cute boys and reading about cute boys in books. I'm infatuated with the glamour girls of the past: Audrey, Dorothy, Marilyn, Elizabeth.

I'm a self-confessed girly girl, book nerd, food enthusiast, and comic book fan. Odd combination huh, you have no idea...

​REVIEW 

"What did I do to deserve you" she asks through tears.
"You exist"

I dived straight into this, 
One I loved the cover, 
Two, I loved the blurb, 
Three, It's Portia Moore. 

I've read previous books by this author and loved them, the heartwarming, emotional stories, so understandably I dove in.

This isn't my usual kind of read, it probably won't be your usual kind of read. This book will get so many different reactions. 

I've been on a rollercoaster ride with these characters and I've never felt this before but the message in this book feels tangable like you can feel it, it reaches out and pricks your subconscious if you let it. 

Portia Moore has delivered a powerful message and I don't know how to describe it only that she cleverly disguised it within a romance book. 

A hard book to review, I respect Portia Moore for expressing her faith through the work of fiction combining the two. 

For the romance part of the story, I felt the heartache, the marriage problems Bryce and Chassidy were facing which are so very real for so many today, struggling with loss,not communicating with others when you hurt, struggling alone and facing temptation in the moments of weeknes.

This is one you have to read and come to your own personal conclusion and like I've said, I feel it will have so many different reactions depending on how the reader receives it. Just go in open minded.

Arc gratefully received for review purposes
