  5 best friend Stars Why 5 star? I was immediately pulled into the story, each time I put it down I was looking forward to picking it up again, wondering what was going to happen next, how Aiden and Lisa would get together. I love childhood friends to lovers story's and this was perfect. Did it blow me away? no but it had everything I could ask for in a friends to lovers story and I loved the writing style. I haven't read previous books and it felt very much a standalone. About the plot: Lisa has made one mistake after another and is slowly learning running away doesn't solve anything. With an alcoholic mother, no home, the loss of her best friends, Lisa still gets back up, I liked her character and her previous immaturity and bad decisions is simply a part of life Im not a Judge and I enjoyed reading about the lives of Aiden and Lisa as chaotic as Lisa's was. A teenage pregnancy, a taboo relationship and it seems even when moving away Lisa still makes bad decisions. Aiden was Lisa's childhood friend along with Chris but at the age of 17 Lisa crossed the line with Chris 's dad and her bad decisions cost her both Chris and Aiden and she lost them both. It takes two to tango and when all is said and done Lisa was still a child herself. Aiden was always the Frenemy to growing up, the one Lisa would love to hate, three was a crowd and Chris was the one she was closest too. Now in her late twenties Lisa has been away in Chicago and things still aren't going to plan. Aiden receives a concerned phone call to check on Lisa and begrudgingly he goes. Time heals and feelings change. Aiden helps Lisa get back on her feet. Aiden: If she were any other girl, I'd kiss her. I'd take the lips that are parted just right for me to slide my tongue in and I'd listen to her moans as I backed her against the wall. But she isn’t any other girl. She’s Lisa, my best friend. A steady paced read told in dual pov's, a read to curl up with and enjoy the characters and the internal battles both fight with a fear of crossing the friendships line . Lisa: Sometimes you have to endure stretches in hell, but it's worth it for even a little piece of heaven. The trouble with before is an enjoyable read that I slipped into with ease, I would definitely read more from Portia Moore.  BLURB Our history made things harder. We were associates out of convenience. We tolerated each other. I never saw her that way. She never saw me that way. She and I were never meant to be friends. You’re not supposed to fall for your best friend’s enemy, even if the enemy is YOUR ex-best friend. This isn’t the story of falling in love with your best friend. It’s about falling out of hate  NOW LIVE! #HotNewRelease #Standalone #OneClick Amazon US : http://amzn.to/2cDoi23 Amazon UK : http://amzn.to/2cUi0bD Amazon CA : http://amzn.to/2cwh6TG Amazon AU : http://amzn.to/2dtaV0W iBooks : https://itun.es/au/FogPeb.l Nook : http://bit.ly/2cUtYBD

 Perfect conclusion One story, two very different couples, genius!. I loved the first book and although both books combined make it one story, It's like two stand alone's, so brilliantly done. I love Aly Martinez books, her heroes and Alphas are swoon worthy, heroines have backbone and the plot always has edge, suspense,intensity and gives you a read that you can’t put down and the Retrieval Duet is no different in that respect but at the same time very different from previous books. You must read Retrieval first before reading Transfer and if you already have then let me tell you you won't be disappointed with the conclusion. Told in dual pov's with a plot that will whisk you away to a couples world that is full of suspense, danger, angst, banter, family moments, friendships, healing times,heartwarming moments and humor, it a nut shell it's a readers wet dream. Icing on the cake, contains a swoon worthy hot alpha hero, enjoy ;-) Recommended read.  One story. Two couples. I fell in love with a man who didn’t exist. What started out as romance ended in hell. His words turned to razor blades. His kisses converted to fists. His embrace became my cage. His body transformed into a weapon, stealing parts of me until ultimately…. I broke. I hated him. My sole job in life became to protect our daughter. I wasn’t sure I’d ever escape the prison he’d skillfully crafted from my fears. Until the day our savior arrived. This is the story of how I escaped the man who thought he owned me. The transfer of my life and my family. TRANSFER (Part 2) is NOW AVAILABLE!

Two couples. I proposed on our first date. She laughed and told me I was insane. Less than a day later, she said yes. It was a whirlwind, but we were happy… Until we got greedy and wanted a family. It was a life I couldn’t give her, not for lack of trying. Fertility just wasn’t on our side. We sought out doctors and treatments. Spent money we didn’t have. Lied to our families. Smiled for our friends. Put on a brave face for a world that didn’t understand. Finally, we were successful… Until we were forced to bury our son. We were left broken, battered, and destroyed. They say love is in the details, but it was the details that ruined us. This is the story of how I took back what had always been mine. The retrieval of my wife and our family.    Rockstars definitely do like stockings, That was so bloody good, Have you heard the saying it cracked me up? well it did so many times, I laughed out at the antics and words of the characters. The plot: Tom is the bands bassist and Abbie is the sister of another band member Jake, you could say they have been secretly been having it off and getting jiggy for a year without everyone knowing but feel now is the time to come out in the open and tell the other members of the band and Abbie's brother Jake who they are both apprehensive to share their relationship with for fear of how he will react. It started in a coat closet and became more. The characters are easy to love with their banter and the family feel within the Dirty Riches family and the writing style easy to follow. The season is Christmas and it's the last book in the series so all the characters from previous books are together along with the children, a brilliant lighthearted and feel good read, enjoyable with a few hot moments. Nikki is a British Author so you get the good old British humor that is seasoned throughout this book Authors I would liken Nikki Ashton to is Anne Mercier and her rockstar series so any fans of Anne could grab a copy of Nikki's books and you won't be disappointed. Recommended series read. ROMANCE WITH A TOUCH OF HUMOUR  The Dirty Riches boys are back to entertain! Tom Davies is the final member of the band to settle down, or so everyone thinks.

I started this a little confused it was like I missed some chapters because there was no intro as such and it was like the reader is expected to know who is who, I couldnt understand the synopsis at first? the book starts at a baseball match obviously the characters first encounter is in a previous book & I wasn't aware it was a series. Anyway I soon got into the swing of it pardon the pun. Gina is a woman with backbone normally you would expect the man to be into kink and sex clubs but in Fastball it's Gina who holds all the cards and likes the control, she is the kind of woman who has always put up barriers and never enters relationships. Ryder is a star baseball player the plot doesn't focus on this as it mainly focuses on Gina and Ryder's relationship. Ryder is on a mission and isn't giving up on Gina and gradually starts to chip at her walls. A plot told in dual pov's with great main characters and extended characters. Other characters include Ryders sister Riley, Gina's best friends Cassidy and Mark. A hot read, great chemistry with a bit of angst and does lead to a well deserved hea for Gina and Ryder. Good read, I would read other books from the other characters.  Our relationship starts off like a bad joke. A gorgeous guy walks into a bar and says to me, “Do you want to F#ck?” and damn if I don’t say yes. And that should have been it—the punch line. We never should’ve seen each other again. Only we do. Turns out sex on a stick, Ryder Wilde, is more than an orgasm-giver. He’s a player. Not just any either. A Major League Baseball pitcher. And damn, I want to be his catcher. Except he doesn’t want to play any games or follow my rules: No relationships. No falling in love. Because he’s used to winning … and wants to claim me as his prize. His mission is to own me, body and soul, no matter how much I push him away. Powerless to stop him, I can only hope my heart isn’t another casualty of his fastball. Fastball is available on Ku Amazon US: http://amzn.to/2d8VP0z Amazon CA: http://amzn.to/2cmj1Hi Amazon UK: http://amzn.to/2djxtEC    3.75 Bambi stars I don't know if you can call a reunion after 10 years following just a one night stand a second chance romance but that's what it is. Liam and Penny have a one night stand following a rock concert where they meet, they have a connection but come morning Liam is gone. Neither forgot that night but circumstances it seems kept Liam from a commitment. A bit vague but also at times the author revealed to much from the characters thoughts and feelings not allowing you as a reader to use your imagination of what may happen. 10 years later it seams the stars have aligned and they meet again and the romance journey of what should of took place 10 years ago begins. Liam now has a son and Penny a daughter. Great characters in This time around, its a sweet romance, with a bit of hotness thrown in, I loved that Liam called her Bambi, his nickname for her that night and after 10 years it stuck, so yes lots of sweet swoon moments told in dual pov's. Curios snippets of the other characters and potential relationships, hoping for something from the tatooists Castle brothers, I was intrigued, I liked them, don't think there relationships will be as sweet as Penny and Liam's and I love that, a bit of angst and drama. This time around is a sweet read, without angst, great characters, enjoyable and I'm looking forward to more from this author.  Have you ever met someone for the first time and just felt that spark? I know what you're going to say, it doesn't happen in real life. I thought that too, until one night at a rock concert. You know the story; girl meets boy and boy rocks her world, except boy disappears without a word. That was 10 years ago and I still can't get him out of my head. I guess it just wasn't our time. 10 years ago I met a girl and she rocked my world. She was sweet and sexy as sin and I just up and left, yeah stupid I know. But it's probably one of the biggest regrets of my life. Because 10 years later, I still find myself thinking of our one night together. But it just wasn't the right time. But that's all about to change. It's been 10 long years and both our lives have changed. But maybe, just maybe it can be our second chance, This Time Around.

This is one of those reads you will either love or you won't, it's rude,crude at times dark includes an alpha male that is so far from a hearts and flowers kind of guy and at times scenes hold the shock factor but as the plot unfolds no matter what you think it redeems itself with a beautiful hea. Lo: I'm falling in love with a man who calls me Angel and himself a monster. Lo is a nurse, first meets Jason when he comes into the hospital after an underground fight. Both characters lead a double life, both characters have secrets they need to share and both have a past they need to move on from and they do this together. A plot with mystery, suspense that had me gripped, told in dual pov's, and oh so hot. Lo and Jason both need rescuing from the dark memories they hold onto and there world's colide at the right moment in time. Lo: He calls me his Angel, but I know better. I know he's mine. Brilliant read.  Blurb: In a powerful, smoldering novel from the bestselling authors of the Caldwell Brothers series (“Bad boy heroes to die for!”—Tracy Wolff), two tortured souls team up to overcome the past, finding the courage to heal . . . and to love. Jason “Cobra” Stanley was born to fight. With a father like his, he had to toughen up just to survive. Now Cobra tries to take out all of his frustration, all of his anger, and all of his pain in the MMA cage. But after he receives one too many hits to the head during a match with Jagger Caldwell, the cycle of violence comes to a screeching halt. Cobra wakes up in the hospital, under the care of a nurse whose blond hair shines like a halo—and whose pure heart touches him on the deepest level. Lorraine Bosch is a fighter too. Having escaped from her own controlling father, she prides herself on remaining professional, despite the chaos of the ER. But Cobra is the ultimate distraction. Lorraine knows she should run away screaming from his rippling muscles and shattered psyche. And yet how can she deny this broken man a second chance—especially since she knows exactly what he’s been through? Lorraine’s used to playing guardian angel. Now it’s her turn to find heaven in Cobra’s arms.

Amore Part 1 Author: Bella Jewel Genre: Mafia Romance Release Date: September 19, 2016 BLURB “It is not love that defines us, Julietta. It is love that destroys us.” I’m just a normal girl.

My thoughts: I started this book in the evening and although my mind protested I went to bed, big mistake. I had such a restless night thinking of a 7 year old little girl Maggie May, her bossy ways, her determination to have a wedding in the woods under the twisty trees to her brothers best friend Brookes. Thoughts of that day, the day he was late, the day Maggie May's life changed through events that no one could ever predict, the day she lost her voice and the ability to step out of the house, gone was the chatty bossy little girl but one thing remained Brookes. Told in dual pov's and in parts you are taken through child hood,teenage years to adulthood through the ups and downs of all the family and characters, everyone moved on, life carried on but Maggie May remained a prisoner in her own home and mind. One day had changed half a lifetime. Maggie and Brookes relationship was beautiful, heartwarming, at times emotional he was the constant in her life even when they weren't physically together. Brookes:I hadn't known you could hear someone's voice so clearly in the silent moments. Brookes and Maggie's relationship and their way of communicating touched my heart, I felt myself break so many times reading The silent waters. Maggie escaped in books, her life consisted of her room and the lives she lived in the pages others had written. Maggie: I'd lived the lives of each character within the walls of my bedroom. "Do you promise me the same type of love I've read about in my books?" "No Maggie May. I promise you so much more" So many beautiful words are within this book, my kindle is full of highlights. I have truly been taken on an emotional journey I wouldn't of thought possible when I first started. Brittainy C Cherry has written words that will stick with me for a long time, books like this you don't forget, I know I will sigh when I hear The Still Waters mentioned it touched me that deep. My favorite words: "The world keeps spinning because your heartbeat exists" ""You ok today Maggie May" This is an amazing book and I can strongly advise buy it. Arc gratefully received for honest review Bbbf-sizzlereads-bestbookboyfriends  Blurb Moments. Our lives are a collection of moments. Some utterly painful and full of yesterday's hurts. Some beautifully hopeful and full of tomorrow's promises. I’ve had many moments in my lifetime, moments that changed me, challenged me. Moments that scared me and engulfed me. However, the biggest ones—the most heartbreaking and breathtaking ones—all included him. I was ten years old when I lost my voice. A piece of me was stolen away, and the only person who could truly hear my silence was Brooks Griffin. He was the light during my dark days, the promise of tomorrow, until tragedy found him. Tragedy that eventually drowned him in a sea of memories. This is the story of a boy and girl who loved each other, but didn’t love themselves. A story of life and death. Of love and broken promises. Of moments. (Book Three in the Elements Series. Complete Standalone. Coming Fall 2016.)

Thankfully that didn't happen but the epilogue leading to book two has me a little scared. Liam has moved to England from Australia, his business partner is Sarah's brother who lived in Australia for two years and now their focused on a branch in the UK. Sarah: He was hot, Australian, had a great smile, blue eyes that crinkled when he offered up that great smile, and yeah, did I mention he was hot? A love and lust at first sight read that is hot and takes you on a journey with the characters as they establish their relationship with a few bumps on the journey. Sarah: I felt alive. I'd never experienced such an intense level of feelings for a man. Liam is a hot sweet swoon worthy, straight to the point talking Aussie, I loved him. He kissed my forehead "I like you a lottle Sarah Carter" "I think I like you a lottle more Liam Delaney" Sarah has insecurities her mother's actions and her upbringing has prevented her from jumping into relationships, a little irritating and a bit over the top at times, I wanted to shout oh get over it lol but like I said Liam's a swoon worthy sweet talker. A romantic insta-love read that I thoroughly enjoyed, told in dual pov's. I loved all the characters Luke Sarah's brother, yes I would definitely love more from him and hope he finds love. Sarah: That fucking accent was enough to charm the Armour plate knickers off a nun. I should of known then that me and my flimsy La Sensa thong didn't stand a chance. This book does lead to a hea but the preview of the second book has me anxious. Another great read from Lesley Jones.  It's live... http://amzn.to/2cyQYoI http://amzn.to/2d3gqDA http://amzn.to/2cUj80Z http://amzn.to/2cZrmGh It only takes one defining moment. One look. One dance. One conversation. Sarah knows from the second she meets Liam that their connection is more than just instant attraction. It’s deep, it’s consuming, and has the potential to be the real thing. But true love comes at a price. Fuelled by Liam's past, Sarah's issues, and a messy web of family ties, business partnerships, and exes, the combined forces threaten to snuff out their new found relationship. Will that spark be smothered by outside forces? Or will they be carried like smoke from the ashes and sent spiralling skywards? Written in Lesley Jones’ usual heartfelt, witty, and emotional voice, this dual point of view story is just the beginning of her Spiralling series. Look for book two, late 2016. Image may contain: text    Brief Review: Angst,drama,action, bloodshed you get it all in this gripping read. "I never expected to all in love with King, my tormentor, my lover, my friend, my world. But I did." There are twists and turns where you wouldn't expect them, lovable characters you wouldn't expect to love. The man I once so fearful of, a man of violence, and yet so much love, was struggling with control because of me. Dark full of suspense, gripping, definitely no hearts and flowers but even in the mix of darkness, evil and danger love is found.

For Lauren Caldwell, the answer was: as far as necessary. She had done what she had to do to protect the one person who meant the most to her in the world—her uncle. She wasn’t proud of herself, but in the end, she had protected him just as he’d always protected her. A year later, a year of being ostracized in the small Virginia town she called home, she found herself helplessly watching her worst nightmare unfold. She was alone. Until a stranger became a friend who became the glue that might finally piece together the jagged fragments of her life, of her heart. How far would you be willing to go for someone you love? Brant Matthews never wanted to fall in love again; he had worked diligently to avoid emotional entanglements at all costs. He knew what it was to lose the one you loved, to fail them so irrevocably that the entire trajectory of your life shifted. But seeing the broken look in Lauren’s crystal-blue eyes, feeling that old pain flare anew and knowing from experience exactly how much she was hurting… he never stood a chance. She had him, whether she was ready to accept that or not. And when her childhood tormentor set his sights on her once more, Brant knew exactly how far he would go to keep her safe. He would die for her or kill for her. There would be no middle ground.

My second book by this author and I loved everything about her writing style, the plot unravels slowly there's little angst, the hot scenes are scattered in all the right places and I love the characters. A second chances romance with great characters. Abby is the teams Physio and Max is the star quarterback. Max doesnt recognised his childhood best friend when they first meet, the tomboy redhead from his youth has now got boobs, a figure and turned out to be hot. This cocky football player was on a journey to discovering real love and it was a brilliant transition from manwhore to manning up. Another great read from Tia with beautiful hea and with the Excerpt from the MC series that is definitely another one to add to my list too. Synopsis: He can’t help claiming her. But can he love her? Max Anderson enjoys all the perks of being a star NFL quarterback―including the women. He has no intention of changing his carefree, hard-loving lifestyle … until a twist of fate reunites him with the girl he knew growing up. Abby Morrison has worked hard to become a physical therapist. She knows she needs to keep things professional with Max -- but the truth is, she’s always loved him. Back then, she hid it. Now, it’s not so easy. As they rekindle their friendship, the heat between them is impossible to ignore. Soon it flares out of control, and the fallout threatens to ruin everything. Can they salvage a future together ... or will the consequences wreck their lives? Excerpt: The time came around nine o’clock when we’d all stuffed ourselves. Abby stood up from the table, a little wobbly. I swooped in, waiting for her to decide it was time to go. “Come on. I’ll take you home,” I murmured, taking her by the elbow. She looked up at me. “No,” she murmured. “What?” “No. I don’t want you to take me home. Now will you move?” “Wait. Slow down.” “I want somebody else, Max. Now move.” “Who?” “Anybody. It doesn’t matter. Just not you.” She shook me off—thank God we’d both been whispering, or practically, because it didn’t seem like anybody else noticed. I followed her out the door to the restaurant’s entrance. “You can’t drive in this condition,” I warned her. “Then I’ll get a cab. You can leave now.” She glared at me, her cheeks flushed. “What?” “You ruined it. You always ruin it.” “How the hell did I ruin anything?” She looked back into the restaurant, frowning. “I was having fun. People were talking to me, seeing me, liking me. And you had to take over like you always do.” My car pulled up in front of us, and I took the keys from the valet. “Come on. I’ll drive you home, and we can talk about it on the way.” I practically threw her into the car before she could curse me out, then got in myself. Once I locked the doors from my side, she couldn’t open them. “What the fuck Max!” She slapped the dashboard, then sank into her seat with a groan. “I was having fun. I was about to get laid, damn it!” I bit my tongue until I calmed down. “By whom?” “I don’t know! What did it matter? I was gonna get some for me, for once. And you won’t let me. I have to always be there for you, but you can never be there for me. You couldn’t just let me enjoy myself. No, you probably wanted to tell me all about your stupid fucking cheerleader girlfriend and ask me what you should do about her!” There was so much venom in her voice. She hated me. I pulled over to the shoulder of the road. “What are you doing?” she asked. I unbuckled my belt without saying a word, then turned to her. “You wanna know why I wanted to take you home?” I reached out, grabbing her by the shoulders. I pulled her to me before she could push me away and crushed my mouth against hers. She only fought me for a split second before giving in. She sighed, relaxing, and I wrapped my arms around her. Her lips were so sweet, soft and yielding. When I slid my tongue between them, they opened to give me better access. I tasted the inside of her mouth, taking my time. This girl who had been my friend for so long, and she was right—I’d used her in a way. This girl who was always there for me without asking anything in return. This sexy, incredible girl. The kiss deepened, with her tongue dancing alongside mine. She wrapped her arms around my neck, almost growling. Sounding hungry, desperate. I ran one of my hands over her body, listening to the way the breath caught in her throat. She whined a little, pressing against me, and when I made contact with her tits she moaned into my mouth. By the time the kiss ended, we were both breathless. Her eyes were wide, stunned. “That’s why,” I whispered, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. #StadiumOfLights #LIVE #99Cents #FreeKU Stadium of Lights: A Second Chance Sports Romance by Tia Lewis $0.99 or FREE on Kindle Unlimited.

Sixty four days in captivity that's how long Ava spent with the man who not only captured her body her will but also her soul.

A childhood friends then to adulthood romance with a love hate relationship. Henley and Keaton have been farm neighbors since they were little and have always had a love hate relationship, the hate part being more on Henley's side as she saw Keaton as a pain in the rear and nicknamed him Ass of Ashfall. Henley left the small farming home town after the death of her sister and now years later she is back following the death of her only parent. Unstable is a moving story with little twists and turns, it's heartwarming & heartbreaking at the same time. The banter between the characters is funny you can tell they were childhood friends as the same torment and teasing continues between the two even as adults. Keaton will warm your heart, make you smile and make you swoon, I absolutely loved him, he is another hot cowboy for my BBF shelf. "I loved you since you were ten, I loved you while you were gone, and I love you now". Told in Henleys pov you are swept away with the plot, beautiful words, taken through the highs and lows which lead to a beautiful hea. A swoon worthy Sunday read Arc gratefully recieved for review: BBBf-sizzlereads-bestbookboyfriends  After eight years, Henley Calvert is headed home. Back to the family farm and small town she left behind, never to be thought of again.
Too much regret and shame to bear. But she’s the only one left to see to her family’s legacy, so she must return to Ashfall and face all the ghosts that haunt her. **** Gatlin Holt, the family farmhand, awaits her arrival, and lends a hand—in more ways than one. He reacquaints Henley with the lay of the land while helping her heal her soul with a new outlook on life. Yet every time she thinks some peace may be within reach, Henley hits another roadblock. The biggest of which is Keaton Cash—her childhood nemesis who owns the farm next door. **** And no, it’s not a love triangle. That’s impossible when Henley’s heart is closed, incapable of love Links Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31823744-unstable Amazon US: http://amzn.to/2cbtV7w Amazon UK: http://amzn.to/2d0RRKC Amazon AU: http://amzn.to/2cOLXZZ Amazon CA: http://amzn.to/2cbtXw9 iBooks: Coming Soon B&N: Coming Soon SE Hall Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/S.E.HallAuthorEmerge Twitter: https://twitter.com/Sehallauthor Website: http://www.mysehallauthor.com/ Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/S.E.-Hall/e/B00D0AB9TI/ Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7087549.S_E_Hall Instagram: https://instagram.com/Sehall_author/ Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/7E-nP SE Hall’s Crew: https://www.facebook.com/groups/369189306536701 Giveaway Link: http://www.rafflecopter.com/rafl/display/dc6ffa26158   REVIEW 5 My Lily stars I loved Shielding Lily, Alexa Riley is my go to author for hot little reads and Shielding Lily didn't disappoint. A little different from previous reads both Ren and Lily's journey begins at school on Lily's first day as a new student. It's insta love on Ren's part and from that moment it's this star football player and gentle giants obsession and mission to make sweet little lily his. "I'm going to spend the rest of my life showing you how much you matter" Ren vows and I know with every part of me he will. Lily is the daughter of an alcoholic father and since her mother's death Lily’s love experience died with her. I've always thought I was brought into this world to find and protect you. To shield you from the ugly things out there. To not let any darkness touch you. Sheilding Lily contains an overprotective male who is swoon worthy, sweet, has a plot your heart grows with and will make you smile as it leads to a hea. A perfect contemporary romance read. "I am home" I tell him. It's the truth. Anywhere this man is, is my home.  It’s Lily Parker’s first day at a new high sIIt’s Lily Parker’s first day at a new high school. She’s a senior finishing her last semester, and all she wants to do is graduate and get out of town. Her home life is a secret hell, and she’s trying to find a way out. But everything changes when Ren says hello and sees right through to her truth.
Ren Hendrick’s succeed's at everything he touches, including football. But he’s never been passionate about anything. He’s quiet and keeps to himself, which pisses people off. But he can’t find the desire to care. He’s lived a life without color, until Lily walks in and lights up his world. Their story is one of sweet young love and finding your forever before you can even dream of what that is. It’s one of protecting what belongs to you and having the courage to follow your heart, no matter your age. Warning: Call your dentist and schedule an appointment, because you’re going to get nothing but cavities from this sugary book. Ren and Lily start off so innocent, but by the time it’s over, you’re gonna need to hose yourself off. We’re talking two virgins who turn into maniacs. You’re welcome!

T.L Smith has once again delivered an on the edge,gripping and riveting read in Distrust, with fascinating, intriguing and interesting characters and a plot that had me captivated to the end I was left hungry for more and can't wait for the next book in this series.

Elina is an enigma a woman who appears, stays the night in Kaisers bed and in the morning she is gone, like a ghost.  For two years Elina has breezed in and out of kaisers bed and overtime has become kaisers Kryptonite Elina is a mystery and for most of the book remains one but with all the mafia dealings, danger,angst,bloodshed I was not only gripped but loving all the other characters and what was unfolding in each chapter regarding them as well.

She was there, then she wasn’t. She would play with my emotions like a well-played guitar. Then she would disappear. Making me want to strangle her. Maybe she wasn’t a ghost, maybe she was the giver of sin. Because we sinned every time we touched, every time she was near. Her lips were shaped like a heart, deceiving you at every word. Her body was created straight from my fantasies, one I craved to bend to my will. Her heart, well, who the hell knew. She kept that shit locked tight. And I couldn’t find the key. |
