Conveniently Yours (Titans Of Manhattan #1)Conveniently Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Caspian is such a broken man inside when he appears to the outside world to have it all. Now his Uncle is dying and has forced him to marry to keep his fortune. When he runs into an old childhood friend that is in a desperate situation with her ill mother, he thinks they can solve each other’s problems. It doesn’t take long for Caspian and Paisley to realize that there is no way either of them can keep it strictly a professional arrangement. Yes, there is undeniable hot sizzling chemistry between the two of them but there is so much more than that. Finding out about Caspian’s childhood broke my heart and made his current life up to reconnecting with Paisley make so much sense. Paisley makes him want to be her Prince, her Knight in Shining Armor, even though he uses less than completely honest measures to try to show her how much she means to him. It all blows up in his face and he quickly does everything he can to make it up to her and beg her forgiveness. Can love really conquer all? The ending was epic and absolutely took my breath away! I cannot wait to read the rest of the Titans series.

Conveniently Yours is the first book in the Titans of Manhattan series by Anise Storm. I have read a few of this author’s books before and loved every one, so I didn’t even have to think about purchasing this book to read, and happily one-clicked a copy and dove in as soon as it hit my Kindle.
I have to be honest, the start of this book had me a little worried as I was pretty sure I was going to hate Caspian, our male MC… but I kept reading and surprisingly he, and the author, won me over in only a few short chapters. By that time I was well and truly hooked- completely invested in the characters and the outcome of their story.
Caspian Archer is a titan of the corporate world. His past still haunts him- the driving force behind his rise to success. He leads an enviable lifestyle, with anything he wants within his reach. So, when his uncle demands that Caspian marries quickly, or face losing everything he has worked so hard for, Caspian has no choice but to come up with a cunning plan. Bumping into his long-lost childhood friend in his hour of need seems quite fatuitous, for them both.
Paisley Fischer is down on her luck- all her hopes and dreams are crumbling before her, and on top of it all she faces losing her beloved mother if she can’t find the funds to provide the medical care she desperately needs. But a blast from the past might just hold the key to not only keeping her head above water, but more importantly being able to properly care for her mother. Will she agree to his unconventional proposal? Has she got what it takes to carry out the plan? This story is definitely worth the read to find out!
This story is a superb fake marriage contemporary romance with plenty of chemistry, sparks, and sizzle. There are angsty and emotional moments, and times where these two characters either made me want to shake some sense into them or wrap my arms around them in a huge hug for what they had been, or were going through….
Colour me hooked on this series now and I can not wait to get my hands on Book #2, it can’t come quick enough!

Happy reading!

Thank you, Anise Storm!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a really good book! This is a fake fiance/fake marriage kind of story, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. It took me several chapters to really start getting into it, and I feel like the author skipped around a lot of events that she could have went into more detail about, like the wedding and just their life in general. Weeks and months would go by and everything was just kind of skipped or glossed over. I really enjoyed reading this story, it was enthralling and captured my attention and I loved the characters, but I would have enjoyed having a bit better of a timeline while I was reading this. I did enjoy this boom however and I can’t wait to read the next installment of this series!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Caspian Archer came from nothing until his uncle took him in, raised him as his own, and taught him everything he knew about running a highly successful company. When his uncle realizes that Caspian has become a workaholic, he tries to resolve it in the only way he can think of how to. He gives him an ultimatum. Get married and keep the company he has worked hard for over the years, or stay single and lose it all. For Caspian, that is easier said than done. He has surrounded himself with women that are beautiful and enjoyable, but not marriage material. Then he bumps into Paisley, a girl from his past that he knew before his uncle took him in. She’s unassuming, destitute, and the perfect girl for his dilemma. That is, until they actually fall in love with each other! Caspian has to open himself up to love or lose her and his chance at true happiness forever.

For the most part, I enjoyed this read. While I could not identify with Caspian or his world, I did connect with Paisley. I was drawn into their love story rather quickly. I appreciated that when Paisley was destitute, she never lost her pride and she knew her self worth. I would have liked to have seen more interactions with the other Titans of Manhattan, as this is the first book in the series. The next Titan was introduced in a very cursory manner in the middle of the book and wasn’t really mentioned again until the very end.

All in all, it was a quick read that was fun. However, it was a little too detailed for me in some parts. LOL I would definitely categorize this as a steamy, adult read.

This story captivated me from page one. Caspian was raised around wealth for most of his life by his uncle and has worked hard to one day take over his uncle’s company. His uncle finds out he is dying and, in his will, tells Caspian that he must wed…for one year plus a day or the company turns over to his cousins. Paisley’s mom was in a car accident and has been in a coma for months, her insurance is running out and needs to be moved to another facility. Paisley doesn’t know what she is going to do to pay for the care her mother still needs.
Caspian and Paisley knew each other a lifetime ago, growing up as neighbors. They happen to run into each other at the hospital after visiting their prospective family members. Caspian recognizes her eyes…but from where? He has to ask her name to place her in his mind. Finding out about her mother, Caspian offers marriage of convenience and they both will come out on top.
The slow burning sexual tension between them was making the pages smolder. Could I marry for convenience? Knowing my mother would be taken care of in a way that I couldn’t, probably. Was Caspian’s uncle right? Can love grow from nothing? I loved this story and can’t wait for more.

Conveniently Yours is for the women who love an Alpha male romance! I’m not discounting the strength of our female main character, however alpha male novels have a following and this book right here should be at the top of their I WANT TO READ LIST! For me personally it’s a guilty pleasure!
It starts dominating oozing strength, but it sweetly comes full circle for Caspian, a man who’s early childhood was a nightmare. He did everything in his power to make sure never to return to that life again. Becoming one of the big serious titans of NYC. That is until his uncle kicks him down a few notches when he threatens to take it all away unless his nephew marries.
In slams Paisley right back into Caspian’s life, a man she hasn’t seen since he was her child & neighborhood hero. Paisley, down on her luck due to her mother being in a serious accident, doesn’t know how she’s going to survive.
You can use your imagination as to where it goes from there or YOU CAN DOWNLOAD AND READ IT!!!! lol If you enjoy these types of romances like I do you’ll love it. It’s the best dose of Sweet & Spicy!!

LOVE this book! Not only goes the author grab your attention with some wonderful detail. Caspian is a man with rough edges. The story goes into how he needs to settle down which he makes very clear he does not want to do but will do it for the good of the company. Paisley the woman he is forced to marry is very family-oriented and nothing like Caspian. This book overall start to finish is a must for your collection.

I knew I would be in for a good read from the first page lol. This book started off with a banger that had my mouth open from the first few paragraphs. Caspian and Paisley have a run in and reunite after almost 20 years apart. The catch is, they reunite to have a fake marriage that lasts a year and a day. This book is a good read. I couldn’t read the pages fast enough to find out what would happen next between the two.

I’m a total sucker for a marriage that benefits two main characters kind of book. So I knew going in I’d enjoy it, I absolutely loved it. Caspian and Paisley instantly had me feeling the connection they were about to have for the story. Caspian May just be my favorite male main character this year, he knows what he wants and goes right for it no matter what might stand in his way. Paisley is going through quite a lot and it’s easy to feel for her. Each one brought me so completely into their world that I easily got lost in the pages and hated when it was over. I’ll definitely be adding this one to my reading again list. Five big stars!

This is a great romantic read. This story is a little steamy and a lot sexy and heart breaking all at the same time. It is sizzling and thrilling and enticing. The story is told from several POV’s which I love, love, love because you get a much deeper concept for who the characters are.
He is spoiled and wants to keep his lifestyle, but an unexpected twist threatens to take it all away. That is unless he can find someone as desperate as him.
She had hit rock bottom with nowhere to go but one conversation may just be the answer to her prayers.

This is book 1 of the Titans of Manhattan series. It’s a story about a marriage of convenience. Caspian has to get and stay married for one year in order to inherit his family’s company that he has worked hard at for years. Paisley is a down on her luck artist whose mother was in a horrific car accident and left in a coma. Caspian and Paisley knew each other as kids and when they run into one another to catch up Caspian proposes the idea of a marriage of convenience that will help him to get his company and her to get her mom’s medical bills covered as well as a million dollars after it’s over. Paisley did the only thing she could do to help her mom… she accepted. Can they make it through the year, will they develop feelings for one another, or will everything go as planned? I found it slightly repetitive and a little slow at times but it has a beautiful story and would definitely recommend it. I will definitely be reading the next book of this series when it comes out!

Y’all once I started this book I could NOT put it down. It’s a juicy read that quenches the thirst for a sexy, wealthy man. This was my first read by this author and I am very pumped to read more! This really hits several marks for me (to be a binge-ble book): sexy main character Caspian (with a great name!), a loveable main character, Paisley (really- she’s adorable and relatable), some SERIOUS tension 🔥, a killer backstory, and a great storyline (I’m a sucker for “forced marriages”). I’m very excited for the next book in the series (I’m really sad I already finished it 🥲-but it really was that good!) and y’all should for sure check it out!

This is an author that I have enjoyed from the first book I have picked up, this one is no different. This is a new series for this author and what a great start it is. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning by the characters. This is a story that is well written and the author’s use of details made the story feel realistic. This is a fast paced story that is steamy in parts and just plain great romance. The characters are not only engaging but also connectable and bring the story to life. I enjoyed the chemistry and their growth as well as the growth of the plot throughout the story. This is a story about Paisley and how she finds herself in a situation where she needs to marry Caspian for a year. She never expected that pretending could become something more. But what happens next with them you don’t want to miss. They are great characters that I truly enjoyed and what they brought to the story. This is a great pick up and I highly recommend it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My, Oh, my, Titans of Manhattan, here we go. This first installment of this series is mesmerizing. I am a huge fan of first-person point of view for both main characters, as it allows you to really get inside their mind, and therefore really delve into the story. Though it’s been done before, this author really captures the essence of second chances, and fighting your demons. Paisley and Caspian have a deep-seated connection, both coming from a rough childhood and having known each other back then and meeting up by chance after finding out only the most unfortunate of news on both sides. There is something to finding out that your loved ones aren’t in their best health and feeling as though you could lose them at any moment, and it makes you vulnerable. This vulnerability was felt in a big way throughout this novel, and I was on the edge of my seat, bed, really, wherever I was while enjoying this adventure.

Love isn’t easy. It’s not meant to be. It’s about fighting for what you want, becoming the best you, you can be, and having the support, love, and strength of your partner to help you along that road. Caspian and Paisley found each other, exactly when they both needed someone to keep them afloat, albeit, in different ways. You can feel these emotions floating off the pages as you read, and feeling their inner demons battling their way to the surface. The greatest thing to come from this novel, was knowing that they both discovered that they found each other again, and for that, they can become the best version of themselves, together. I absolutely loved this novel and cannot wait to read the next installment in the ‘Titans of Manhattan’ series. Thank you, I will be recommending this novel to everyone!

Wow what a fun steamy read! I can’t wait for the next Titans book as I am 100% sure it will be just as amazing as this one. The characters are truly wonderful and you are with them every step of the way. You just want things to work out for them.
Caspian and Paisley each find themselves in a tough spot, for very different reasons, but they can help each other and solve both problems if they marry and stay married for a year. A marriage of convenience should be easy to do right? After all its just 12 months, they can throw in some hot sex along the way and at the end they will both have what they wanted. We all know the best laid plans don’t always work out the way we want them too. Both Caspian and Paisley never expected this to start to feel real but can they really trust those feelings?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The story is the first in the series, Titans of Manhattan. The first titan we learn about is Caspian Archer, millionaire, running Archer Enterprises, a company started and owned by his uncle. Caspian is a workaholic, so his dying uncle has a plan to change that around. Caspian must get married and partake in that agreement for at least 1 year and a day in order to keep his position at Archer Enterprises. To say the least, he is not happy about this and feels his life is good the way it is. Little did he know, all that was about to change when he ran into an old friend from his childhood, a childhood he has tried to desperately forget. You watch this arrangement between two people bloom into a great friendship and love story, with some bumps along the way! I always love a book where you are getting each character’s thought process on the pages and not guessing what they are feeling. I really enjoyed the relationship between Caspian and Paisley. The relationship was honest, brutal at times, full of devotion, and had many sexy encounters. I look forward to the other titan’s story!

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2) by Anise Storm.
What a fantastic read this was! I love when an author can give me heat and an incredible storyline at the same time. Caine and Emery have a chemistry that just seems to jump off the pages. They truly brought the story to life for me. They were easy to connect with and root for. The storyline had me completely hooked from start to finish and I’ll be honest I felt a bit lost when I reached the end from missing the characters. It’s a well written book and I can’t wait for more from this author! Go get this book! Five stars all the way and highly recommended!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Caine Stephens is a man wanted for the murder of his father Arthur Carmichael in the Washington, DC area. On the tip of a friend, Caine leaves the DC area quickly one night and travels to see his friend, Hawke, who owns the Syn BDSM club in Denver. Trying to stay off of everyone’s radar, Caine rents a rundown hotel room with cash. And Hawke supplies him with a job as part of the security detail at Syn.

After his first night at the club, Caine stops on his way home to help a stranded motorist. Much to his intense dislike, it is Emery Wilder, Hawke’s submissive’s best friend. Emery had led a life of luxury until her father is taken to jail on money laundering and drug trafficking charges. Then his accounts are frozen which includes all of her accounts and the penthouse that she lives in. As Caine gives her a lift, he realizes that a hole she is in and now her car isn’t running anymore. He offers her a place to stay with him because she has no one else to turn to.

Even though the two are working through troubles that are related, neither of them realizes how connected their paths really are. During their time together, Caine and Emery fall in love with one another. Can they work through their troubles and still end up together or will their pasts collide in a way that they cannot stay together?

This story is truly an amazing tale of how two truly different people can end up falling in love.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed getting to know Caine and how he fit into Hawke’s life. We got snippets of Hawke’s and Caine’s relationship in book 1, but here Caine stands front and center. Caine is on the run from his past, looking to lay low while he gets his life back on track. Of course nothing goes to plan when Emery comes into the picture.

In Hawke I liked Emery and the friendship and support she gave to Charlotte, but in the beginning of Caine I could not stand her as a character. She just a stuck up girl, and then became all woe is me after her life turned upside down when her father was arrested and their assets frozen. Her character certainly grew in what seemed like a fairly short period of time, partially forced by Caine. By the end of the book I was rooting for her to continue using her new found inner strength.

This book is filled with sex, sex, sex. And who doesn’t love a darker romance where one of the characters has certain fun piercings? I did enjoy the sexiness between Caine and Emery. We get to the Dom/sub dynamic fairly early on but we also get to see the relationship grown and mature between them. I actually found the terms Dominant and submissive being used frequently by the characters but I didn’t find a whole lot of D/s instances in this book compared to book 1.

I understand that you want continuity between your books, but one problem I had with book 1, and continue to have with book 2, is that the books are written in second person. I think the author was much more aware of who the narrator was for each chapter and there was less jumping around as to whose thought pattern we were supposed to be following, but IMO it would have been so much clearer, and been more enjoyable as a reader, to have the series told from first person POV and switch between the two main characters.

This book pulled me in right from the beginning. I love this series and was looking forward to book #2. Caine is on the run, that is until he can prove his innocence after the death of his father. He heads to his friend Hawke’s for safety and to get some extra money saved up.

Caine and Emery first meet at the BDSM club SYN. Emery has a shocker when she loses everything after her father is arrested, she finds herself broke down on a rainy night. Fate steps in and Caine comes along to help her. From here we get some very hot and steamy scenes.
As these two get to know each other there is another twist that really adds another great element to the story.

Overall this was a thrilling and hot and steamy read. I really loved the characters and the bantering was great. The author does a great job with her writing and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series. 1-click and get started on this series today.

Emery Wilder is a society princess. She has never had to work a day in her life. Her father pays for her penthouse apartment, her car, and provides a monthly allowance for her to live. Emery has never wanted for anything. Until the day her father is arrested for money laundering and drug trafficking and his assets frozen, Emery never understood the value of money.

Caine Stephens never knew his father and his mother’s death when he was five thrust him into the foster care system. Caine had to learn to survive by his own wits. A recent revelation of his parentage has upset his world. Now he is on the run from murder charges, needing a safe place to crash while he clears his name, Caine turns to his best friend Hawks. Hawks owns the club Syn where Caine starts working as security and runs into Emery.

As Emery’s world comes crashing down around her, something as simple as car trouble sets Caine’s protective instincts off. Can his controlling and protective instincts help put Emery back on her feet? Will Caine’s past catch up to both?

Where can I get me a Caine? From the growling voice to the tattoos and other decorations,everything about this man makes a girl sit up and listen. This was a thrilling addition to the Men of Syn series. Not as much drama and suspense as the first one, but still kept you interested. I think that Emery and Caine finding each other allowed Emery to transform from spoiled, rich girl into more. I hope that this series can continue with Chad or Bruce or Ayden.

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2) by Anise Storm – Review by Tina Vega

Caine (Men of Syn, #2)Caine by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Whew, I was looking forward to Caine’s story, and it didn’t disappoint. Emery is the best friend we got to know in book one. She has lived a privileged life with her father maintaining everything for her. Suddenly, her father gets in trouble, and she has to figure things out quickly – in fact it’s pretty bad. I was kind of caught off guard with just how bad. You def sit up and get worried about this girl who really doesn’t know how to take care of herself. The book takes off from page one and it doesn’t let you go. I love the action. I love the romance. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like being in Emery’s head, but she is a caring person even though she grew up privileged. Hawke and Caine’s childhoods will break your heart. Really delves into the ugly.

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2)Caine by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Anise Storm has done it again. Book 2 is just as steamy and suspenseful as the first, and very hard to put down. Caine and Emery were an unexpected couple, but each with their own struggles. As their story unravels we watch them grow and develop individually but also as a couple.
Caine flees D.C after being accused of murdering his father. He seeks refuge in Denver with Hawke who helps provide him with a place and a job. He looks to prove his innocence, but also experience some fun on the side. We then meet Emery who is a rich and spoiled politicians daughter who goes from riches to rags after her father has a scandal that rocks her world entirely. Clearing her head and out for fun she meets Caine at Hawke’s club and begin a one night stand that turns into much more.
With no place to go and no money she unexpectedly turns to Caine, who offers her a place to stay. Together they both set out to get their lives back in order with no lacking in suspense, sexual chemistry, or danger.

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2) by Anise Storm – Review by Stephanie Nicole

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2)Caine by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2) by Anise Storm is the second book of this series and it’s a great dark/romance read. I was first drawn to this book by its cover, it really intrigued me. While this book is dark, there is plenty of romance that at first catches her reader off guard but it made this reader love her story even more. I personally loved everything about this book her plot was fantastic, her word-building was flawless, and her characters were fabulous. While reading her story I found myself enthralled in the story and my opinions of certain characters changed along the way. So if your looking for a great new dark/romance I highly recommend.
