My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I’ve been a die hard fan of this author since the first titan series that they did, so when I saw this had released i was right there ready to get it. I loved the trope in this book; lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers. It is an HEA, but PLEASE read the content warnings before you jump in to the book. I made the mistake of not paying attention was quite thrown off by some of the things that happened in this book. That being said, I think the author did a beautiful job of managing the trauma that comes with some of the events of the books, and I look forward to the next!

The Rocklyns Collection: Books 1-7 (The Rocklyns Series) by Alicia Street – Review by Beverly Finnie

The Rocklyns Collection: Contemporary Romance Boxed Set (Books 1-7)The Rocklyns Collection: Contemporary Romance Boxed Set by Alicia Street
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Rocklyn’s Collection is a variety of romances between the Rocklyn cousins that brings the reader to experience different types of relationships. Happy, sad, love, friendship, love and hate. A love for one another that reads right through the page and into the reader’s heart. Not without its share of drama each of the 7 books focuses on a different Rocklyn offspring. One of those series you don’t want to put down. Just one more page, 2 hours later not realizing what that one page turned into.
7 stories and my favorite’s were books 1, 3, & 4. And no, I can’t pick one from there. Some of them feature second chance romance. Some feature workplace type romance. And some feature just needing to know who that person is and doing everything in their power to find out.
Book 1 Lovers in Training features the oh so stubborn Shannon and her savior/client Tate who can’t get enough of her.
Book 2 Maybe Lovers features bartender Carly and elusive not readily available Dr. Jeff.
Book 3 Rainy Day Lovers features Roman who had always been taken by the woman who gave him courage to take the next step and get himself off the streets, Raina.
Book 4 Encore Lovers features Emerson and the oldest Rocklyn winery son Matt Jr. as they rediscover what once was, when he made the regretful decision to walk away and marry someone of his father’s choosing.
Book 5 Never Lovers features the rekindling childhood romance between Patrice and Monty. Getting past the tragedies that tore them apart and finding out another again while being snowed in together.
Book 6 Improbable Lovers features the aloof(to his family) form military man Grant and stuntwoman Keisha while they navigate this feeling between them. Two both stubbornly independent people are in a new territory when they realize they want the other to be part of their lives.
Book 7 Windswept Lovers is the final book in this series set and it features wild child Tucker Rocklyn finally finding a woman in Max that can bring him to his knees. Just one problem: she’s the housekeeper of the woman that wants to make him hers.
Just a brief insight into each story. The instant love through some has you wondering what substance the story has, but it’s there. It’s used as a building block of development. Others it builds to love. It’s a series I will probably start over again on a rainy day. Maybe just maybe you may feel the same way as well!

The Rocklyns Collection: Contemporary Romance Boxed Set (Books 1-7)

Collections like this make me happy, I can binge a series of books instead of the dreaded waiting for the next book to come out.

We get to know the Rocklyn family and follow them as they fall in love with their people. Each couple meets in a different way and face their own challenges but they work through it to end up with their happy endings.

I loved each couple for different reasons, but think my favorite meets was Raina in Rainy Day Lovers which is the third book in the collection.

This series has been a great way to fill my days as I recover and plan to see what else has to offer.

Fashionably Fake: A Fake Relationship Hollywood Romance (Kings of Screen Celebrity Romance Book 4)

Jackson needs help deflecting a scandal in the press and instantly inserts his foot into his mouth and turns Ros’s life on its ear.

Ros’s friendship with Jackson has grown a lot since they met at the wedding and she doesn’t want to mess it up no matter the conflict in her head and heart. Her childhood tramas continue to impact her and how she lives her life.

This was a sweet story about friends becoming lovers and everything they each go through in the transition. It was great catching up with the boys. They are such a fun group.

I love Alicia Street books. They’re always just so juicy. They have such amazing stories, and this collection doesn’t disappoint. Each of the 7 books offers a story packed with all the yummy things. Great characters, great world building, romance, and a great story. It took me 3 days, but I was literally fighting sleep because they were so good. I couldn’t pick a favorite if you asked me to, but just know this, you won’t be let down. I can’t wait to read them again!!

4 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟

This was a fun, contemporary friends to lovers romance…Fashionably Fake is Book 4 in this series…I thought this story was very enjoyable..the chemistry between Ros and Jackson was off the chart. Friendship, undisclosed feelings and banter..what will come of Ros and Jackson……..

Hollywood is all about facade….that is what Jackson is finding out being a well known actor, knowing he needs to clean up his act a bit. When Jackson confronts Ros with a proposition of one year of being together as a “couple”, what could he lose…..but Ros is hesitant, swearing not to get her heart broken again…she decides to take Jackson on his offer. Knowing how their friendship is…what can happen when Ros and Jackson blur the lines of that friendship when Ros is trying to fight off the feelings while Jackson is trying to embrace them.

Definitely have to read and find out what happens. This is a very good story, easy to read and I just loved the banter between Jackson and Ros.

Last book in this great series, you will find romances, werewolves, and drama. Although the story can technically be considered stand alone, reading the previous books in the series will help you understand other characters as well as the present characters. This one focuses on Alexa and Miles. She is leaving her past behind her and settling into a new place and new career. She can finally breathe until her encounter with Miles. His charm easily entrances her as she also has the same effect on him. Unfortunately, she pushes him away before getting too close and this leaves Miles baffled.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First book in this series was so good and I was very much looking forward to the next one! This one focuses on Rylie and Mason’s romance. Hard working and career driven Rylie is brought back to her hometown and is instantly drawn towards Mason, who is the alpha of the werewolf pack. These wolves have an intense scent of attraction when it comes to being drawn to their mate that helps balance out their aggressive nature. Being such a busy man, Mason dismisses looking for a mate but Rylie’s scent starts to quickly change things for him. As they start getting to know one another, Mason has his own dark secrets in which he contemplates revealing to Rylie or not. Seeing where this romance turns into makes this read worthwhile!

Hidden Mischief (Shattered Embrace #1)Hidden Mischief by Alyndra Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hidden Mischief is the first book in the Shattered Embrace series. It honestly read like a debut novel, it might be, I haven’t read this author before, so pardon me if I’m wrong. I had a really hard time settling on a rating. I ended settling with a 3.5 and I know that seems like I didn’t like it but I did I just wasn’t enamored with it. I understood Ashton’s trauma and appreciated Zachary’s willingness to work through it with her, and help her explore herself more, and come to terms with what she likes for herself. Joining his club in search of a Dom/Sub relationship was just the very beginning. I liked them together too but everything happened so fast and I just feel like there’s so much more story to tell. I’d like to continue the series to get a better feel for the characters and see the authors writing talent grow.

A Second ChanceA Second Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve been recently drawn into second chance romances lately and this one did not disappoint. I’ve read several of Brooke May’s works so I definitely wanted to give this series a try. To top it off, these books focus on werewolves. It’s so good in depicting the deeply connected romance of Derek and Annabelle as teenagers and now as adults. How the mate connection brings these werewolves balance to their aggressive selves. Derek and Annabelle met in middle school and were inseparable. They felt as if they belonged to one another. When the situation got tough, Annabelle and her mother moved away and their relationship dissolved. Now many years later, they are brought back together in their same small town in Wyoming and the feelings are still there.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Suki eyes Frank….Frank eyes Suki. It’s an instant attraction and when Frank rescues a favorite earring of Suki’s, their fate is sealed. Almost permanently and pretty quickly. Shots are fired and Frank is pushing Suki towards the basement door. Suki injures her foot (not a good thing for anyone but especially a dancer!) and Frank has to carry her.

During her recouperation time, Frank is pretty bossy. He does work for Al Capone after all, and is used to having things go his way. Frank doesn’t want Suki going anywhere, talking to anyone, and most definitely not walking on her foot. Suki isn’t about to be told what to do by another, especially a man. Will she ever be free of his rules to be the person she is or did she sell her soul to the highest bidder?

This was an enjoyable book and was a pretty fast read for me. I am anxiously awaiting the next book as this storyline has me intrigued!

Alexa Hart let herself fall once for a man who she though was her everything but he showed his true colors and Alexa did everything she could to protect herself. She took back her life and now is living the dream, she does not expect to meet Miles Fischer and she knows he is her one.

Miles is a shifter, part of Alexa running is due to her ex who was a shifter. Miles knows that Alexa is his mate but can he convince her that he will love and protect before he reveals his secret or will it be too late?

A bit different than other shifter stories, I liked the twist on it. The chemistry is great, had a little bit of everything i like in a paranormal read. Will be curious if there are more to come.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

WOW! This has been the most incredible boxed set I have read in quite a long time. I thought it was going to take me ages to get through this as it is 7 books, but I literally devoured them in one weekend. After loving the first two, I was worried that the series would have a lesser quality as the books went on. I’m pleased to say that they were all phenomenal, which is nearly an impossible feat with 7 entire books! You’ll be on an emotional rollercoaster throughout this series as we get to know all of the characters’ quirks and relationship webs. I kept falling in love with each character, all of which were incredibly well-developed. The flow of each story was seamless, and I never felt any awkward moments where I was pulled out of the book. I am experiencing such a deep book hangover as I didn’t want to part with these characters at all. This author has definitely made it to my watch list and I’m highly recommending this boxed set to everyone I know!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series has been so incredible, and this installment is no different! The author has such a way of crafting their stories that once you open the first page, you cannot pull away. I lost an entire afternoon being sucked into this world, but I have zero regrets. The book is told in dual points of view which is an automatic bonus for me. It helps shape the story to hear from both Ros and Jackson’s perspectives. I’m a big fan of fake relationship tropes as well, and the author truly brought a refreshing take to them. While this is part of the series, it is possible to read this as a standalone, so don’t let this being the 4th book put you off at all! I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for us next.

I live for reading an entire collection at once rather than waiting for each new release. Each book brought the story of another Rocklyn family member and their love interest. Despite practically being royalty due to their vineyard the Rocklyn family has their share of issues, especially when it comes to love.
Alicia Street’s writing is engaging and easy to read. Each character pulls you in and has you rooting for their happily ever after. Throughout the series Tucker was always a hoot. I was glad to see him get his own story to round out the series.

This is the 4th book of the Kings of Screen but can be read as a standalone. The author is very adept at weaving in the important details of the previous stories and keeping the reader from feeling like they are missing something. The characters are so fun to read and go on this “fake” relationship with. It is told in both POV’s which I personally love because you get to see both characters fall for each other in their own words. This was a great read and will definitely leave you going back for the first three!

Alexa Hart is a young woman with her dream job, she is living with her best friend and her whole life is ahead of her and so she goes out to celebrate with her friend, dressed to kill in heels and a shimmery gold dress, she is ready to let loose. Miles Fischer is the brother of the Powder River Pack alpha, and he is the ladies’ man of the group, he is tall with dark hair and muscles upon muscles, but when he goes to work in the pack bar, the last thing he expected to find was his mate.

As soon as she sees the tall, dark and extremely handsome bouncer and the bar she found online, she is for once, speechless, especially when he turns a smile which she cannot resist, not the offer of the first round of their drinks on him and they are some drinks. In fact, the drinks are so good that she cannot work out how to get home with her friend without annoying their mum, this is where her handsome bouncer comes to their rescue and offers her a lift home, which she accepts, as does her friend and the kiss she gets at the end is something else.

This is where Alexa, who normally doesn’t keep men around decides to give Miles a chance and soon realises that she is undeniably attracted to him and him to her, however, she has a hidden past which she is trying to move on from, but it comes back with a shock and leads her to push Miles as far away as she can. When she does this Miles is upset and desperate to win her back, as well as find out what happened to make his mate run away, which makes him angry, desperate and not fun to be around.

Will Alexa be able to open up and let someone into the walls she built around her heart and find something she desperately needs, or will she push away anyone who even tries to help, and will Miles be able to convince her that taking a chance is the best thing she can do before nature takes hold? This is another, darker addition to this series where secrets, emotions and nature run wild to create a whirlwind of twists and turns until everything is revealed.

I enjoyed how I was pulled into the story by the characters. I enjoyed watching their growth as well as their attraction throughout the story. Their chemistry is off the charts for sure. This is a second chance romance story but is their love strong enough to survive the evil that is lurking? You don’t want to miss what happens with these characters for sure. This is a fast paced, engaging story that is hard to put down and easy to read. I really enjoyed this book and what the characters bring to the story. I highly recommend this book.
