 From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Sawyer Bennett comes a new story in her Arizona Vengeance series… I was living my dream until one phone call changed everything. As the second line center for the Arizona Vengeance, my mind has been on one thing—helping my team bring home a championship. But that all changed when I found out my dad had cancer and only months to live. In that moment, nothing mattered more than getting home to North Carolina to be by his side. That meant asking for the unthinkable—a trade to the Carolina Cold Fury. Now I’m home and when I’m not on the ice with my new team, I’m helping care for my dad. And in the midst of my grief, I find comfort from the one person I never expected. Calliope Ramirez stole my heart at a very young age. The beautiful, smart, headstrong girl next door, she was my first… everything. She has never forgiven me for leaving her, believing that I chose hockey over a future together. What she doesn’t understand is that every decision I made was for her, and I’ve never given up hope that one day we’d be together again. Watching my dad slip away is a harsh reminder of how short life can be, and having Callie by my side makes me realize I was a damn fool before. That changes starting right now. Calliope Ramirez is mine and I’m not going to waste the second chance that I’ve been given. **Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.** RAFE: An Arizona Vengeance Novella (releasing April 28, 2020): ► Kindle: https://amzn.to/32ONFEh ► Print: https://amzn.to/33UHzlC   I really love this hockey series and always look forward to the next one. RAFE is a short novella approx 14 chapters. I loved Rafe and Calliopes story, although it did take me a bit to get her name right in my head. I would have loved to read a longer version of their story, how they grew up living next door to each other and fell In love as teenagers only to separate when RAFE was drafted to an put of state team but with a good imagination I suppose I will just have to settle for using that instead. Rafe and Calliopes story is bitter-sweet, they reunite when Rafe switches teams and returns home to be with his dying father. If you have read previous books you will be aware of Rafe's situation as it is mentioned in the previous books. RAFE is a heartbreaking yet heartwarming story with second chances and hot moments that leads to a swoon-worthy hea. Sawyer Bennett writes brilliantly, always with the right mix of drama, sexiness and story-line, balancing everything perfectly. Another book in this Arizona Vengeance series by Sawyer Bennett that I couldn't put down. Each book is interlinked due to the focus being on a different hockey player in the team but they can be read as stand-alone's. As always I will be looking forward to the next book.

  The rules: No dating. No sex outside of the game. No disclosing the terms of the contract. Rules were made to be broken, right? Eight weeks ago I signed a contract. One that seemed like a good idea at the time. A handsome bachelor, luxury accommodations, and a chance to win a prize my family desperately needed. There were some rules though. Lots of them actually. Follow the script, no dating, sex, or disclosing the terms of the deal. After my self-imposed moratorium on men the last year, it wouldn’t be hard to live up to my end of the bargain... so I thought. Until I realized the deal I’d made was with the devil... and I was in love with his dirty-talking brother. Can be read as a standalone.   Another book by this author that I enjoyed in audio. Hot, intense, funny, sexy, and as usual Vi Keeland delivered everything I love in a romance. Main characters: Hot alpha CEO, sexy bachelor, Cooper Montgomery and the sweet and sassy normal girl next door kind of woman Kate Monroe. What an awkward situation when Cooper falls for one of his brothers casts on a reality dating show that he himself is funding and he then has to watch the woman he has fallen for dating another guy. Yep, awkward, uncomfortable, it was all kinds of a mess and yet with all the power Cooper has he was powerless over Kate's motives and even when they fell deeper, he still let her carry on. Kate has her reasons for entering the show, she has a brother who is in a wheelchair and wants to make life better for him so winning has to be her focus even though she's falling for the hot bachelor Cooper Montgomery. I loved it, the hotness, swoon-worthy moments and the angst in-between. The audio narrator's were as usual perfectly matched to the characters. I love Vi's audios.  Ruthless. Arrogant. Dangerous. Sexy as sin. Deacon King is the devil and I’m unknowingly about to be his latest dance partner. I’m captivated the second he arrives to do my interview. He’s the dangerous kind of sexy that women should run from. Little do I know, the simple promotional spread for the new reality show I’m starring in is about to become the beginning of a living nightmare. We are connected in a way I never could have imagined and he’s set on making me pay for a life I had no control over. Everyone thinks I’m a Park Lane Princess, but there’s much more to me than meets the eye, and I will not cower down to Mr. King no matter how hard he tries to break me. Welcome to B.A.D. Inc. where our glossy pages only hide the dark and dirty world that turns beneath. If you like your alphas brooding and sexy then you’re in the right place. Get your e-readers ready because our new hot, suspenseful romance is going to set it alight. Free to read in Kindle Unlimited. https://geni.us/Betormented Mia is MINE. Mine to fuck. Mine to please. Mind to fucking DESTROY   Firstly , I love this cover, I was completely drawn in before even reading the blurb Well what can I say about Torment? If there ever was a character were you can say I loved to hate him and hated to love him, it would be Deacon ass-hole King Deacon King is ruthless, a rich alpha dominant male with a dirty mouth, he's a love em and chuck em kind of guy with a kinky side, he's a game player who only has a close circle of trusted friends and to those outside that circle they only see what he wants them to see. Deacon King also has a devious side and not only does he set out to ensure Mia falls in love with him but also has every intention of ruining her and for what? Mia was merely a pawn in his game, one he intended on winning in his devious game of revenge against someone Mia cared for. What wasn't supposed to happen is Deacon King falling in love too. Torment is yet another hot page-turner by this brilliant duo of authors, it will have you all kinds of angry and frustrated with the characters while your fanning yourself at the hotness all at the same time. Great start to a new series, I wanted more backstory on Deacon's group of friends who met in university, and who now treat each other as family and support each other, there wasn't enough of that but hopefully there will be in the next book in the series, just to get a better idea and understanding of the characters and the dynamics in their relationships. I first learned of Deacon at the end of Scott's book, his brother in the hot daddy's series but each book can be read as a standalone and this is a new interesting hot series that has me wanting to know more about B.A.D inc. Told in dual pov, leads to hea and yes, the ass-hole does redeem himself ;-) Enjoy   She was never supposed to walk into my club. But she did. I shouldn’t have looked twice at her. But I did. The criminal underworld is no place for a girl like her. One night with Katerina isn’t enough, but men like me can’t afford to be weak. So, I tell her to leave me behind. She does, but not before she sees something she shouldn’t. When she goes into hiding, it’s my duty to hunt her down. I have a job to do, and she needs to disappear for good. But four years later, Kat isn’t alone anymore. And the little boy right beside her looks just like me   MINE is the first instalment in the TIES THAT BIND, a dark, Russian mafia romance co-written by Natasha Knight and A. Zavarelli. MINE was exciting, full of suspense and unpredictability, something that I love in a dark romance. Kat and Lev first meet when Kat is on a night out with a friend at a night club the Russian Mafia own. Kat is a naive eighteen year old who has just taken pills to have a good time and nearly ends up the victim of rape or worse if Lev hadn't stepped in to save her from a group of men. The young kitten enters the lions den. Lev is completely mesmerised by Katerina and drawn to her in a way where he knows he is no good for her but just can't help himself. When he discovers she left her pink scarf behind at his home following a night with her, it gives him the perfect excuse and opportunity to see her again. Kat isn't without her own mysterious and damaged past and really the last thing she needs is to be involved with someone in the Russian Mafia but when she comes into possession of evidence to bring down the Russian Mafia boss by her friend and then witnesses a murder, she then has to go on the run for the second time in her life. The clock is ticking and it's only a matter of time until the Russian Mafia finds her and so the plot jumps to four years on before Kat is found again by Lev while she is living her new life in a small mountain town under a new name. Now the pink scarf is a big part of this romance and story, it's used a few times as a significant part of the plot so when Lev discovers it in the room of a murdered woman before the house is burned down and he quotes in his thoughts that he recognises it and it smells of Kat giving him the knowledge she was there at some point and then later in the plot years later when he finds her he leaves the Pink scarf for Kat in a draw at her work as a sign and to let her know she is found in a honey I'm home kind of way, Kat says the scarf smells of smoke, I was like *scratches head? Now either Lev put the scarf in his pocket while in the room with the dead body or he somehow got it after the house was burned down which does't make sense, they dowsed everything with fluid including the bed the scarf was on, I'm no miss Marple but still, if your going to have a significant item in your plot get it right. This is the first co-written book I have read by each of these two authors, I have read many from them with their own books and love them and their dark romance reads and although I enjoyed it and will probably read the second book, I just didn't love the flow, I can't say I was turning the pages as eagerly as I do when they write their books alone. Finishes on a cliffhanger, told in first person dual pov  BUY LINKS Amazon → https://amzn.to/37IEs2I Amazon Universal → https://mybook.to/TTBMine Apple → https://apple.co/2tfeWTx B&N → http://bit.ly/37Pv9hm Kobo → http://bit.ly/38Vhq8P 𝐆𝐑 𝐓𝐁𝐑: Goodreads → http://bit.ly/36Dum1B    The first time I saw Aiken Cross aka Skull, he was standing atop a speeding motorcycle. The second time, he was putting his fist through my brother’s face. Now he’s everywhere I look. He’s making my life hell with his vulgar remarks and seductive lure, but it’s not my fault my brother joined The Border Lords, his rival crew. I keep my nose out of their business and my head in the books, yet he’s always there provoking me. Dragging me into their conflict. Everyone in town knows you don’t mess with the Sons of Sinister, but no one ever told me what to do when a Son of Sinister messes with me. New York Times bestselling author Tabatha Vargo invites you to fall in love with the Sons of Sinister!

Shattered Skull is a definite must read for any reader who loves a bad boy that rescues a fragile heroine. Shattered SKULL does have scenes of attempted rape, so it's not for the fainthearted, however, I am used to a darker kind of stories and plots being a lover of MC reads and Shattered SKULL was a nice change from the usual MC kind of read. A new generation of biker gang, a whole lotta hotness!! My heart hurt for Everly, a young eighteen year old woman who has recently lost her father, following her fathers death she then has to move to a new town to live with a selfish mother and brother both of which are never home and she then has to start a new school, Everly also suffers from anxiety so that in itself is a big thing for her. When Everly and Aiken first meet its at an illegal biker kind of racing track which takes place every weekend. Instant attraction, instant curiosity, Instant chemistry. I cannot think of a more suitable guy to be drawn to Every than Aiken who was protective and caring despite his bad boy way of life. So excited to read more in this series, I am so glad it is not a standalone and there is more to come from the other guys in the biker gang and I will be looking forward to reading more in this series from Tabatha Vargo.   Max Horton They call me an outcast like it's a bad thing. An asshole byproduct of a shitty upbringing. I don't care about anything except myself and my little sister. I will always protect what’s mine. With one year left on my hockey contract I'm keeping my head down and my eyes on the goal. A collision, with her, changes my entire existence. Allison Grant Never fall in love with a sports star. That's what my stepfather always said. He told me athletes are complicated and moody—that the higher their paycheck, the lower their morals. As public relations for the New York Stingers I know exactly what he means, but I can’t seem to say no to a friendship with one beautiful, damaged man. What started out as hate turned into something else. We tried to stay away, to keep our distance, but the pull was too strong. Something forbidden turned into something so irresistible.   Another brilliant addition to this series. I couldn't wait for Allison's story, I didn't expect any love interest she would have would be smooth sailing, what with a over protective father like Cooper and overprotective brother like Matthew but when the love interest is your brothers nemesis, its definitely complicated. Something so irresistible is an enemies to lovers romance. Alison starts work for the team doing PR, she is very close to her brother who is one of the players on the hockey team so of course she is aware of the trouble Max got her brother into and if you have read the previous book you will know what I mean. Alison hates Max, has to work with him but is so strongly attracted to him too. It's a story of push and pull until finally they both give into their attraction for each other but then they have to keep their relationship a secret unless they want all hell to break loose. Max is such a swoon-worthy hero and definitely not the bad buy he was painted to be in the previous book. I loved it, I listened on audio and enjoyed the narration. What I have noticed about Natasha's writing though is she repeats scenes so at the end of one scene it will be repeated in the next chapter from the other persons point of view, which is a little annoying, different, but annoying. This series is interlinked but each book can be read as a standalone. I will definitely be reading more books in this series, its a good hockey series that focuses more on the relationship than the sport itself and each book always finishes with a hea.

The Rich Boy is Kylie Scott's newest stand-alone novel, I was completely swept away at the beginning. Beck was a young care free man or he seemed to be, travelling around and moving from place to place until he met Alice, just an ordinary young woman who worked in a bar. I loved the idea of this young care free man who had travelled all over the place who then decided to stay in a place he didn't really like, cleaning tables, just to be near the woman he had began to fall hard for. Beck has his secrets though and he was holding something back, that itself was no secret and it was a swoon-worthy beginning with such potential. Beck and Alice worked at the same bar together and the more time they spent together they became even closer until one night Beck's real life and the thing he had been trying to escape from came to find him. Alice always new Beck had secrets that he wasn't ready to share and also that he was escaping his family for some reason, what she soon discovered after that night was Beck was rich, very rich and with the sudden news of his fathers death, it was time to go home and face the family and so he asked Alice to go with him. What did Alice have to lose really, she had a job she hated and was struggling to pay the bills and on top of that for the first time she was falling hard for a mysterious man who made her heart patter but I don't think she quite new what she was walking into when she moved to Denver to be with Beck. I liked Alice, she had sass and backbone but there wasn't really anything interesting about her. I suppose this is a rags to riches kind of story and as Alice began to settle in with the elegance, snobbery and riches surrounding her, although Beck was still the same man, loving and kind, she also saw the man he was expected to be and how much in the spotlight he and his family were but Alice refused to conform to what was expected of her, especially Beck's Grandmother who was in summary stuck up, devious and calculating. I enjoyed the story, it was swoon worthy and interesting in parts but I also thought it lacked drama and angst and it took me longer than normal to read this due to losing interest a few times. A heartwarming enjoyable fairy-tale kind of story, a slow-burn with the hotness, told in first person pov, leads to hea.  Rylee’s life would have ended the day she met Stone. You might say he’s the one who saved her. If only she can allow herself to see it that way too, since the turn of events makes her question everything and everyone. Protecting an innocent while simultaneously dealing with an ulterior motive will never work out the way it’s supposed to. Not when Stone is fully invested and finally decides to grab hold of what’s right in front of him. He thought no woman had what it takes to be the president’s old lady. In the end, it all comes down to his ability to protect the woman who claimed his heart. The moment you pull the trigger, there’s no stopping the bullet; all you can do is brace for impact. Collide with the world of Trigger Pull MC, where an encounter with a rugged biker will inevitably change your life  Read in one sitting. Oh wow!! I really enjoyed the first book in the series and as short as it was I was itching to get my hands on books 2, I was not disappointed, LOVED IT!!. The second book in the series is mainly Rylee and Stone's story but also contains more of Jace and Daniele's story too. which I loved because I got to know what really happened and the events that followed the cliffhanger following their story and I was more than happy with what happened next even though their story was more in the background to the main characters story in STONE. What did I like about it? well, it was hot for a start, filled with suspense and I loved all the drama and the characters. If you love an alpha protective hero lots of dirty talk and action, this one is definitely for you. I would suggest reading the first book which is a novella first to get the background on Stone's VP and Rylee's best friend Daniele before starting this book to appreciate the whole plot and story. I will definitely be reading more from this author and can't wait for more, the writing is easy to follow and has a brilliant balance of hotness, drama and story-line.

I haven't read the previous books in this series and although Scott's story introduces you to his estranged brother and I can't wait to read his story in a new series, this book can be read as a standalone and contains no spoilers to previous books in this series which I also intend on reading. Scott is a waiter, a charmer and a man-whore. Suki is a bartender in the same restaurant, she hates man-whores, one man-whore in particular Scott Sullivan. Their hate banter even draws in crowds at the restaurant and people flock to the restaurant just to hear them go at it, it's entertaining unbeknown to Scott and Suki who really do have a hate relationship and its no put on show, Scott loves to wind Suki up and she loves to hate him.

Scott and Suki's relationship also changes when she takes pity on the abandoned baby, something she herself is familiar with due to her own backstory and so she offers to help. Suki and Scott begin to get close as they both spend time together looking after baby Doe. I loved the progression of Suki and Scott's relationship and how this man-whore who was only ever interested in himself and sex made a huge change in his life when he discovers there's more than himself to think about. HOT DADDY PACKAGE is a must read which is fun, flirty, filled with humour, hotness and heartwarming moments, I loved it. Told in first person dual pov and leads to a hea Available in KU.   Four consecutive weeks on the New York Times and #1 in Romance. It started out like any other morning on the train. Until I became mesmerized by the guy sitting across the aisle. He was barking at someone on his phone like he ruled the world. Who did the stuck-up suit think he was...God? Actually, he looked like a God. That was about it. When his stop came, he got up suddenly and left. So suddenly, he dropped his phone on the way out. I might have picked it up. I might have gone through all of his photos and called some of the numbers. I might have held onto the mystery man's phone for days―until I finally conjured up the courage to return it. When I traipsed my ass across town to his fancy company, he refused to see me. So, I left the phone on the empty desk outside the arrogant jerk's office. I might have also left behind a dirty picture on it first though. I didn't expect him to text back. I didn't expect our exchanges to be hot as hell. I didn't expect to fall for him―all before we even met. The two of us couldn't have been any more different. Yet, you know what they say about opposites. When we finally came face to face, we found out opposites sometimes do more than attract―we consumed each other. Nothing could have prepared me for the ride he took me on. And I certainly wasn't prepared for where I'd wind up when the ride was over. All good things must come to an end, right? Except our ending was one I didn't see coming BUY LINKS Amazon: http://amzn.to/1qGPRdE iBooks: http://apple.co/1Qbwy57 B&N: http:// bit.ly/1UC8wDC Kobo: http:// bit.ly/1RJdUif   “The way he was so dominating and controlling, yet exercised restraint to respect my wishes, was the sexiest thing I’d ever seen.” Another book by these two authors that I could not get enough of, I love these two authors on their own and also when they come together. I've said this before but they really do seem to know what I like in a romance read and the plot always has a perfect blend of everything I love, hotness, humor, a good story line, a bit of angst and of course a hea. The story begins with Graham Morgan AKA stuck up suit, a rich businessman who for once was taking the train because his personal driver was off and he couldn't get a driver, a day to day thing for Soraya who does not have the luxury of having her own personal driver or a car for that matter and she takes the train daily to work were she is an assistant to a agony columnist in a newspaper. When Graham Morgan loses his phone on the train it's Soraya who finds it and you would think this would be a meet cute kind of moment, however it's not, Soraya keeps hold of it a few days and has a good snoop through his phone and basically after getting more curious about the man goes to his office to return it, is he grateful? well no, that wouldn't be Graham Morgan at all, he's a grump, a workaholic and the man doesn't know the meaning of the word please or thank-you, hence going through numerous secretaries a month. When Graham is nothing but rude to Soraya by refusing to come out of his office because he's busy when she visits to return his phone she gives him a piece of her mind through his office intercom and sends him pictures of her legs, and other body parts to let him see what he missed out on, a good on ya girl kind of moment lol Graham is left with the images and can't help but wonder who this woman is who actually stood up to him, a series of texts continue between them over then next few days until he spots a woman's feet on the train who has the same tattoo as the one in the mystery woman's picture on his phone. I enjoyed Soraya and Grahams journey, I laughed out loud, enjoyed Grahams journey from grump to swoon-worthy guy and I had a happy sigh at the hea. I listened to this in audio and although it was well narrated I do prefer other narrators these authors have used before I wasn't that keen on the male narrators voice who sounded a little creepy and took me a bit to get used to his voice.

Who is Mason West? Mason West is an amazing talented artist who fell in love on his rise to stardom only to have everything ripped away from him. Mason was part of a band who was getting recognised, he was the lead singer and song writer and on the night of their first big concert there was an accident and his pregnant fiance was killed. Mason went from a young man with hopes and dreams to being devastated, grieving the loss of his first love while being a single father trying to make ends meat because more than anything he just wanted to put his little girl first with the loss of her mother while his band went on to stardom. Throughout this story there is the diary of Katrina which I was a little confused about at first until it clicked who she was and they were her thoughts and her own hopes for Mason before she died, her thoughts that are weaved throughout the plot. Mason's life was one of working as many hours as he could, playing small gigs and supporting his daughter, he also had to rely on his dead girlfriends parents for childcare who were supportive and pushed him to keep performing just like their daughter used too. When Mason is approached by a band manager one night who is looking for a lead singer after losing their own lead singer who has gone solo Mason's life makes a huge turn around overnight. Mason goes onto meet his new potential band members and auditions for them, this is when he meets the talented Liberty who is the keyboard player and song writer for the famous band. I loved the progression in this story, the flow and the feeling of satisfaction when you realise that Mason West, this humble and talented man is finally getting a break and what he deserves, a life in the spotlight where he belongs, a decent home for his little girl and her grandparents and as the story evolves he also finds love again. Mason's story was captivating, he is humble guy, Liberty has had her own share of heartache too and I can honestly say I reached the end with a contented sigh. A moving story. I am definitely looking forward to more books by this author.   “What’s love got to do with anything?” Physical attraction and chemistry were everything. One woman? Gray had tried that and failed. Meaningful relationships weren’t something Gray Dennison had ever experienced or coveted during his many years on the road with his band, CraVed. Being unattached suited his simple, hedonistic, playboy lifestyle. Add his cocky, sometimes arrogant attitude, and the lead singer of a rising rock band had all the credentials to be a wealthy, charismatic Rock God, stateside. With his heart throb physique and handsome features, Gray was an obvious magnet for beautiful groupies. It wasn’t his fault they kept falling for him. The constant revolving door of fangirls, models, and others on offer, made sure Gray’s physical needs were always met. In all his adult years only three women had made the slightest dent in Gray’s armor. That was until he raked the burning embers of a second chance romance with an old flame, a mistake of going backward, and a drunken heart-to-heart with his best friend, Brody. The culmination of these events opened Gray’s mind to reconsider the choices he made, face the hurt of his past, and find the courage to seek the answers he needs to salvage his future. BUY LINK mybook.to/notesonlove  OMG!! I have never been so frustrated with a character in all my life, KL Shandwick what are you doing to me? Gray Dennison is not your average rock-star, well not the type you usually read about anyway, the kind who use groupies and move on never using the same woman again, no, Gray lets them get close, he lays the rules down about being exclusive and stays with the same girl on the condition its just friends with benefits BUT of course the poor woman is going to fall for him, of course they are going to get hurt when he doesn't want more and then he gets a conscious about it and hates himself. Honestly this guy, I was sweating at certain parts of this book, and I could have slapped my kindle at times. I didn't know if I wanted to slap Gray, hug him or chuck him off a bridge. Gray was brought up by his father, abandoned by his mother and obviously has relationship and insecurity issues due to his upbringing despite being a sexy rock star who could have it all. NOTES ON LOVE wasn't an easy read purely due to frustration with the character and decisions made or not made, it certainly was a roller-coaster of a read and I did not have a clue were the plot was leading too BUT I enjoyed it, I loved the angst, you could say it was Marmite, you will either love Gray or hate him, hates a strong word but... *shrugs. Gray does redeem himself so get ready for whiplash, prepare yourself for a swoon-worthy ending Told In first person dual pov and leads to a hea ARC RECEIVED FOR REVIEW PURPOSES   Chart topping U.S. rock band, Default Distraction, have everything money can buy...

But he's tired of the rock n roll lifestyle, and so damn sick of the pretence. He wants something real, something tangible... Amy Harper has had more than enough of “real”. She has nothing to call her own. Unless you count a large overdraft and a struggling village shop. She's so tired of pushing against the tide, just for once she wants to be swept away with it... An accidental meeting is all it takes for Brody to claim the reality he wants. A few stolen moments are all Amy has to give, before once again her reality consumes her. Can he convince her to take a chance on him when experience tells her to walk away? BUY LINK http://Mybook.to/BrodyDD   Brilliant!! I am already itching to read more books in this series. Although this is a rock-star romance, there is more focus on the characters and the plot. The setting is within a small town in the U.K Brody is the first book in the Default Distraction series by A.S. Roberts, the story of Brody Daniels who is the lead singer of the rock band, Default Distraction. Brody has been a rock-star for years, he's at a time in his life where he's been there, done that, he has groupies falling at his feet everywhere he goes and he is at a point in his life where it's tiring, life on the road is tiring, the woman throwing themselves at him are tiring, he is also a recovering alcoholic. Brody is one of the new owners of a local Manor that holds events and of course has guests, while in town Brody notices a woman in a quaint Victorian shop called “A Stitch in Time” he is instantly attracted to her, you could say it was love at first sight. Amy runs her Grandmothers shop, her Grandmother who has raised-her from a child is currently suffering from dementia and is an a care home. Both characters have a background that is tragic, the plot building was one with anticipation. Brody peruses Amy who has trust issues due to her past but he does not disclose who he is, at first Amy assumes he is in town for a wedding due to his American accent, Brody wants Amy to get to know the real him, not the one the media see's and so he does not disclose more than what he is willing to give until she gets to know him more as a person. A story of trust, new beginnings and soulmates. "I wasn’t sure of who I was when I was with him, but he made me feel sexy, he made me feel everything". BRODY, is a brilliant heartwarming story that I could not put down, it was hot in all the right places and I adored the characters, I cannot wait to read more, I am already interested in other characters that were in this story, Amy's cousin and friend and also Brody's other band-mates, this looks like it is going to be a great interconnected series and I cannot wait to read more. Told in first person dual pov and leads to a hea. AVAILABLE IN KU   A new, sexy standalone novel from #1 New York Times Bestseller, Vi Keeland. Terminated for inappropriate behavior. I couldn’t believe the letter in my hands. Nine years. Nine damn years I’d worked my butt off for one of the largest companies in America, and I was fired with a form letter when I returned home from a week in Aruba. All because of a video taken when I was on vacation with my friends—a private video made on my private time. Or so I thought… Pissed off, I cracked open a bottle of wine and wrote my own letter to the gazillionaire CEO telling him what I thought of his company and its practices. I didn’t think he’d actually respond. I certainly never thought I’d suddenly become pen pals with the rich jerk. Eventually, he realized I’d been wronged and made sure I got my job back. Only…it wasn’t the only thing Grant Lexington wanted to do for me. But there was no way I was getting involved with my boss’s boss’s boss. Even if he was ridiculously gorgeous, confident, and charming. It would be completely wrong, inappropriate even. Sort of like the video that got me into trouble to begin with. Two wrongs don’t make a right. But sometimes it’s twice as fun.   INAPPROPRIATE was absolutely everything I love about contemporary romance. Fun, flirty, sexy, hot, funny with a serious plot line in the right places, I even teared up at one point. Another brilliantly balanced read by Vi Keeland, I didn't want it to end, I could seriously have carried on reading about Ireland and Grant, I would follow their relationship right up-to the Grandparents stages, I loved them that much. Hot rich CEO and sassy employee. Although this was what you would call an office romance there was a lot more going on outside the office. The back stories of both characters were heartbreaking and the plot was well developed, I loved the characters, especially Ireland I like a woman with backbone who can give as good as she gets and stands up for herself and Ireland Saint James was definitely that. Another hit for me by this author who always seems to know just what I need from the moment I pick up the book, however, I listened to this in audio, so listened intermittently but as soon as I finished listening, I could not wait to see what happened next and was itching to listen again when I could. Sebastian York, Andi Arndt are always a brilliant combination, the are exceptional audio narrators. A brilliant, beautiful story containing new beginnings and second chances.

Dark, gripping, edgy, I freaking loved it! "I'm unsure if I will survive Marcus. His speciality is death. My chances of survival are slim" Marcus reminded me so much of Death in Disbelief from T.L Smith's previous Mafia series and I couldn't get enough of that series either, I am so excited, I want more. Marcus owns a crematorium, his brother is president of an MC, I am dancing in my pants to get to Blaze's story.

Rochelle is feisty, a redhead, it really suited her character, she is definitely a woman with backbone, she first meets Marcus when her grandparents die and she's at the crematorium, there's no zinging moment when she meets Marcus, it's pure light being drawn to darkness that lures Rochelle in and the want to get to know Marcus more. They become each other's obsession. Kisses and Lies is one roller-coaster of a read, prepare yourself not to get off until you reach the end. Toldd in first person dual pov and leads to hea Arc received for review purposes   Swallowing lies has never felt so good. Reed freaking Rivers. I wouldn’t trust a word out of the arrogant music mogul’s mouth if his gold-plated tongue were notarized. The Man with the Midas Touch would say anything to get me into his bed, and I know it. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want him to succeed. Indeed, the moment I laid eyes on Reed while he was speaking at an on-campus event I’d crashed, my body physically ached to feel his golden fingers—and tongue—all over me. Unfortunately, though, I can’t give into my powerful craving to jump Reed’s cocky bones. Not until I’ve figured out my best strategy with him ... The truth is Reed has something I desperately want. Something my heart desires even more than my body craves one night of delicious fun with the yummiest man alive. Reed assumes he’s running this game of seduction.

Reed Rivers aka hot, rich, has women falling at his feet bachelor has twelve years on the smart, sexy, straight out of college Georgina. Georgina is sassy, smart, cunning, if one woman can put Reed Rivers in his place it's definitely this girl. "We're fire I murmur The chemistry is off the charts with these two scorching characters, what a whirlwind of a read, I am so anxious for more. "We're the same, Georgina and me. Two bullshitters, buried beneath outer layers. Two people who recognise themselves in each other" BAD LIAR is book one in this new exciting trilogy from Lauren Rowe. I've read most of Lauren' s books but none have hooked me quite as quick and held me captive as much as Georgina and Reed's story did and I love, love, love all books I have read by this author.

So many questions and so little time to discover the answers. Once Ronnie and Matthew were best friends, but time has moved on and those memories are now locked in the shadow of the past.

Anna Bloom has written a brilliant addictive story that will have you turning the pages eagerly. IF WE WERE YOUNG contains a fabulous mixture of humour, sizzling hotness and consequences. We all have words that are unspoken but what if those unspoken words changed your life direction? Told in first person and leads to a hea    "My life is shite, and more boring than an iced finger – it’s basically bread for goodness sake; where’s the cream? To top it all off my boss, Roman ‘The Ego’ Hepburn, hates me." Summer James has suffered a devastating change to her life, one that could shape her future and to make matters worse she now has a new boss. Not such a major problem, some would think, but that boss is Roman Hepburn. He's rude, grouchy and impatient and has a damn fine ass! Very quickly her feelings for the dark, brooding, Roman change and it soon becomes evident that some highly charged sexual tension has been bubbling under the surface, and Roman makes it clear that he intends to make Summer his. Will Roman succeed in getting the girl, and if he does will he succeed in keeping the girl? Or will circumstances and Roman's hilariously strange, but loveable family, send Summer tottering to the hills on her six inch heels? This is a sexy, fun romance with some laugh out loud moments. Full of quirky characters, broody men and feisty women you won't be disappointed   A MOODY BUILDER AND A WOMAN WITH AN OBSESSION FOR DESIGNER SHOES. What a brilliant combination of humour, hotness and story-line. "One of these days I was going to crack my theory of being able to crack a nut on his beautiful arse" I listened to Roman's having sex again in audio and although at times I think it should have been called Roman's in a mood again, I couldn't get enough of these hilarious characters. Roman was a moody builder having issues with contracts and Summer is his office PA but this is very much an office Romance with a difference. There is only one negative and that is that I found it wordy too explanatory sometimes and it is a good length of a book with 50 chapters, I probably would have got bored at certain points had I been reading it but it worked in audio and the more wordy it was gave you a good idea of the settings etc for visual effects. Brilliant, sexy and original. Set in the North of England, this audio was a refreshing change in a British accent, it took me a while to adjust to it as I listen a lot of audio which are normally in an American accent. I laughed out loud many times but also loved the plot line and the twists and turns within Roman and Summer's story. Highly entertaining, embarrassing parents, drama, angst and some swoon worthy moments, Romans having sex again is a highly recommended British Rom-Com. Told in first person pov and has a heartwarming hea.  |
