Ten years ago, I met the man of my dreams. A stupidly gorgeous and wildly talented venture capitalist named Dallas Evener. I was the fiery yin to his dominant yang. He set my entrepreneurial heart aflame. Our destiny was clear as day … and then he had to go and ruin it.
I swore never to do business with him.
A decade later, I’m eating my words.
A scandal rocks my startup passion project and I’m left in a lurch when the lead investor backs out. My only hope for money? Dallas. But that means I play by his rules. And the whispers around town imply he funds his projects with dirty money.
Is that why we fly to Argentina to close the deal with a mysterious financier? Dallas promises this is a no-brainer, although nothing comes risk-free. I’ll take a chance with my company. The question is, do I put my heart on the line again when our simmering chemistry reignites? Because there is more to this transaction than meets the eye. And everything I thought I knew about Dallas and love tangles into a compromising position neither of us expects.

My goals are simple. To make the world a better place one love story at a time!

 

Q: What can you expect from my books?

A:  Where heat meets heart!

 

Every writer sprinkles their brand of DNA magic into stories and my ingredients are glamorous destinations, brilliant, sexy minds, and juicy plots with just the right amount of spice stirred in to kick things up a notch.

 

I also love messy characters. Ones who struggle, but never give up. My women are strong-willed and successful, but never infallible when it comes to matters of the heart. My men are maddeningly imperfect and sexy AF.

 

If you like all of the above, it might be love at first page read!

 

The Hustlers is my first series, an interconnected trilogy that can be read as stand-alone. You’ll meet three alluring BFF’s navigating dreams, desires, and all the beautiful complications of falling in love.

 

Set against the backdrop of sultry jet-set lifestyles, if you crave vivid characters, adventurous plots and sensual moments, these mid-steam romps are the perfect escape!

Billionaire Logan Bennett wastes no time with games he can’t win. And that includes hooking up with the little sister of his best friend. Correction—ex-best friend.
Jinx D’Alessio had always been a firecracker, a little troublemaker who used to tickle his funny bone when she was a kid. But tonight her all-grown-up siren dance is tickling a different part of his anatomy. Finally getting his hands on the off-limits beauty would be poking the hornet’s nest of the feud he has with her brother—but it might be so worth it.
Jinx has been crazy over her big brother’s best friend since she was a teen, but she knew he would never touch her no matter how much she wanted it. Now, at twenty-nine, her history with men is like a bunch of bad rides at an amusement park.
After the trouble between Logan and her brother she knew she shouldn’t even be talking to him. But Jinx refuses to settle for a boring, run of the mill romance. She wants a big, dramatic, passionate love with a man who can knock her off her feet with one look.
Too bad the only man who can do that is Logan Bennett. The one she can never have.

Hidden Mischief (Shattered Embrace Series) by Alyndra Quinn – Review by Manda Kelly

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

If you enjoy a Dom/sub read with a little bit of a mystery, and some sizzling scenes, you’re absolutely going to want to read this book! You get some BDSM, Dom/sub dynamic, steamy romance. Alpha male mentality, humor, lots of banter, strong and independent but submissive Female lead. Lots of spicy encounters, and some slow burn romance. Definitely an intriguing mix of characters with lots of different elements. It makes for an engrossing read. I for one cannot wait for the second book. Definitely suggest it, if you’re into the spicier side of things.

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, Book 5) by KG Fletcher – Review by Lucy Machard

Fearless Love (The Bennetts of Langston Falls, #5)Fearless Love by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a sweet romance! This is the second one in the series I’ve read, and as always the dad is my favorite. This one definitely tugged at my hearstrings a little bit, and I loved how the FMC was an absolute spitfire who took no one’s BS. The MMC was a sweetheart, even if a little dense sometimes. Pretty much fade to black/closed door for spice levels, but sometimes that can be a bit refreshing. Still recommend, as well as the other books in the series.

He’s the sensible brother in the family who’d do anything to help a neighbor out. She’s a single mother on the run. Can the two resist temptation when they become unexpected roommates?
James Bennett had his life all planned out—or so he thought. After a bitter break-up, he convinces himself he doesn’t have time for relationships anymore. But all bets are off when he befriends his father’s new caregiver, Sara Larson.
She’s the beautiful and funny travel nurse hired to help his dad. She’s also a single mom to her eight-year-old son which means she’s completely off-limits. But there’s something captivating about the auburn-haired beauty and he finds himself drawn to her like a moth to a hot flame.
When James learns she and her son are living out of a suitcase in the local economy motel, he invites them to stay with him and his two big dogs at Bennett Farms. Sara reminds him what it’s like to desire a family of his own. She’s everything he ever needed, and nothing he ever imagined.
But Sara has secrets and he knows getting attached might be a huge mistake.
Can James convince Sara to stay and build a permanent life with him by her side? Or will she run away again, leaving him with his heart in his hands?
Author’s Note: A steamy standalone about two roommates turned lovers. One-click for a cinnamon-roll hero who’d give the shirt off his back to help someone in need, and an independent mom who’s first priority is her son. Romantic add-ons include a charming carriage house, flirty banter, big dogs, late-night dirty dancing. This love story comes with a guaranteed Happily Ever After.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is my first read from Maria Jane. I enjoyed the story. It’s sometimes hit or miss when talking about a 3rd Person POV, but this wasn’t bad. I enjoyed the dynamic between the characters. The story flows well and the ending was nice. This was a quick read, and I do look forward to reading more from Ms.Jane.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It was very clever to do so in instalments because you’re left hanging and wondering who , what and why 😱😉

Bella girl loves her romance novels but real life isn’t the same as where we loose ourselves , being single in your 30’s and trying online dating can be both fun and intimidating and we get to join Bella on her journey and I tell you what it’s been entertaining to say the least 😉

MR WIMP

After 12 years of marriage Bella’s husband decides he wants to move on and it would seem a third party is involved but I’ve my doubts but that’s a story for later , she’s now going to enter the scary world of 30 something dating and I say scary but it’s actually quite amusing and liberating and it may it may not boost your confidence a little ….

Joel I just want to tell you that you’re a chop for cheating on Bella and then you still have the cheek to make her feel like you walking away was her fault 🤮 shame on you !

Bella you go on as many dates as you need girl , have fun and find your knight in shining armour 🥰😉

MR STEAMY

Bella girl is still out having fun and when hunky Batman Liam crosses her path I cheered from the sides 🤣😉 he’s like a walking fantasy 🤣🔥

Liam is a love them and leave them kind of man and I must say I had a little chuckle when Liam offers himself up as the “sacrificial lamb “to help Bella out with “training and research “

Bella then meets Jack online and where does she meet up with !? At the bar ! I’m like hello girl you’ve got your hands full now what 🤷‍♀️

MR PLAYER

So Bella has left Liam eating her dating dust bubbles and now is getting a taste of Jack 😱😉

The jury is out on Jack on whether or not he’s a Casanova or not but let’s not get to excited because Bella decides to take a breather and I can’t say I blame her , she has been busy but while deciding to take a sabbatical delectable Jensen messaged her …,

What’s a better distraction than a girls weekend away !? Jensen is a delectable soeciMAN and I hope he stays around a little …..

MR KINKY

This one is my favourite by far 😉

Let’s just say Jensen added ALOT of fun , games and spice 🔥

I had fun with these guys but not as much as Bella did 🤣😉🔥

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago Series) by Anise Storm – Review by Kirsten Berkebile

OMG!! I couldn’t put this book down and I hated when I had to because of work. Just like her other books, she knows what her readers want to read. The love story of Harper Grimes and Gabriel Blake was written for those who believe in soul mates. I am one of those people even though I haven’t found mine yet. This isn’t just about love, hurt, and passion but you do see a lot of that in this story. It helps create a realistic picture of what’s ahead. I promise you that you will not be able to put this book down until you have read it completely. Anise Storm is an author I wish that I could be someday. You will find yourself mad at some of the characters including Harper and Gabe at some point and that is okay. Continue to read and you will find that the anger helps you understand these characters so much better.

This book is all about Gabby and Colby. Her best friend is dating one of Colby’s closest friends and teammate Max.
Colby and Gabby both annoyed me so much reading about them. They are both adults. Have spent a night or two together and now Gabby tries her hardest to stay away from him. He’s a player and she’s looking for her happily ever after. Especially after what she does thru this whole book to help Addie. The chemistry between Colby and Gabby is ridiculously insane. They cannot be close to eachother without wanting to
Rip eachothers clothes off. As much as Gabby wants him, she fights her feelings pretty good. Colby is very possessive and cannot deal with seeing his friends so close to or touching Gabby. Neither one seems to be able to admit how much they really care for the other. Colby has had his heart ripped out by an ex and he wasn’t looking for anything more then a one and done type of situation but, He can’t seem to get Gabby out of his mind. Will these two finally decide to be honest with themselves and then eachother and take the plunge and be in a real relationship?

Perfect Office Pact (Perfect Romance Series) by Maria Jane – Review by Sheri Schrader

Perfect Office PactPerfect Office Pact by Maria Jane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Perfect Office Pact is a sweet romance. The book was a fun, enjoyable read that I finished quite quickly. Mira has started at a new workplace and already knows the boss. Declan, who taught some of Mira’s classes, realizes that he sees Mira in a new light. The two have a conflict because Declan misstepped, and Mira could take it to the board. What should a guy do when he wants to know his employee better?
I enjoyed the story and the tension between the characters. I had a hard time with Mira at times because I enjoyed that she was strong-willed and knew what she wanted, but at other times, I just wanted to be done with her because she was annoying. In the end, I liked her and how she was with Declan. The story was a fun, getaway and I look to read more from the author in the future.

Hidden Mischief (Shattered Embrace Series) by Alyndra Quinn – Review by Katie Kearney

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

Zachary & Ashton pulled me into their world effortlessly and I loved my time with them. I love Ashton’s character she may be a submissive in parts of her life but don’t mistake her for a doormat or some shy person. She’s so sassy and I love everything about her. Zach will give you all the heart racing vibes. There’s plenty of heat but this author doesn’t over do it, there’s plenty of great written story with steamy parts sprinkled in. I will say while obviously we’re all about the main characters, you’ll also really enjoy the supporting characters also. I really enjoyed my time with this book and definitely can’t wait for more. Four big stars and highly recommended!

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a nice slow burn, clean read, romance. I feel Mira’s character started out strong; I really liked that she knew what she wanted, wasn’t going to take any crap, and pushed herself. During the half way point she really started to bug me and I felt she needed to get over herself. I enjoyed the other characters, Cade is great and I’m glad they developed a friendship. Usually having so many characters to keep up with bothers me but I felt the amount of characters interacting in the book was good and no one clashed to make it confusing. I really liked her friends and glad to see there are other books with her friends romances. I do wish there was more of the actual relationship of Mira and Declan but I am glad they got their happy ending. The short time we see them together I feel they had good chemistry so I’m not mad with the ending.

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago, #1)Deceptively Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow!!! This author never disappoints. The tension holds you in a vice and doesn’t let go. If you love to read romance mixed with danger mixed in, you will love this author’s books. This book had me in its grips quickly. The sizzling hot connection between the main characters was on fire and you were in their corner all the way through the book.

Please note trigger warnings as there are some dark issues in this book. I found this story line added to the book and the emotional roller coaster this book takes you on.

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago, #1)Deceptively Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Harper and Gabriel were childhood best friends and high school sweethearts that were pulled apart when Harper’s parents are suddenly killed in a car accident their junior year of high school. When Harpers parents die, she is forced to move from Chicago where her father is a Titan, to Portland to live with her uncle until she graduates high school, her world changes in many ways, and none of them are positive for Harper. Due to being so far away, and the horrible changes that are occurring in her daily life, including physical and sexual abuse, Harper ends her relationship with Gabe, and tells him that she’s with someone else, in an effort to push him away and protect him. For the next decade, Harper isolates herself from her friends back in Chicago, until she realizes that her uncle is behind the recent deaths of Gabe’s parents and may be poised to try and harm or kill Gabe, whom she still loves. Harper goes back to Chicago to warn Gabe that her attempts to figure out what happened to the money that should have been left for her when her parents passed, may have accidentally opened a Pandora’s Box that cost him his parents and may yet cost him his life. Gabe refuses to talk to Harper at first, until the incoming winter storm causes him to bring her into his home for a night, where passions are ignited in more ways than one. When Harper finally tells Gabe what she suspects, he doesn’t believe her at first. This book is a great opening to what I am sure will be an awesome story. The characters are flawed and realistic, the world building is great.

He’s the sensible brother in the family who’d do anything to help a neighbor out. She’s a single mother on the run. Can the two resist temptation when they become unexpected roommates?
James Bennett had his life all planned out—or so he thought. After a bitter break-up, he convinces himself he doesn’t have time for relationships anymore. But all bets are off when he befriends his father’s new caregiver, Sara Larson.
She’s the beautiful and funny travel nurse hired to help his dad. She’s also a single mom to her eight-year-old son which means she’s completely off-limits. But there’s something captivating about the auburn-haired beauty and he finds himself drawn to her like a moth to a hot flame.
When James learns she and her son are living out of a suitcase in the local economy motel, he invites them to stay with him and his two big dogs at Bennett Farms. Sara reminds him what it’s like to desire a family of his own. She’s everything he ever needed, and nothing he ever imagined.
But Sara has secrets and he knows getting attached might be a huge mistake.
Can James convince Sara to stay and build a permanent life with him by her side? Or will she run away again, leaving him with his heart in his hands?

I absolutely LOVE this author!! I was so very happy to see there is a new series and what a fantastic start to the series this is. The lead characters Gabriel and Harper are fantastic, with a very deep connection even after years apart and the storyline will have you emotionally charged one minute and filled with joy the next. I can’t wait to read more about the rest of the Titans.

Lela’s Choice by Jennifer Raines – Review by Heidi Sturgess

Lela's ChoiceLela’s Choice by Jennifer Raines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

How much fun does this cover give off ?!

Lela is a nurturer and sometimes it felt like she was putting herself second to get father and her niece , look don’t get me wrong she has a heart of gold and is loyal and dedicated to those she loves and I can’t fault her for that but to fill the needs of others you need to fill your own right !?

Anyhoo , Lela has been planning to live her life as soon as Sophie turns 18 but then she ups and runs off with her boyfriend and that leaves a massive spanner in the works Lela because now she’ll have to put her plans on hold so she can hunt Sophie and lover boy down in Malta !

Ok so maybe it’s not all bad because in her search for Sophie Lela had to work with Hamish who in torn works for her dad so I get her reservations but there’s an u deniable pull between them I mean you have to be blind not to pick up on it !

The past often affects the present and future especially where emotions are involved and both Hamish and Lela have baggage but they work through it and their story is a beautiful one to watch unfold ….

I think another reason I loved this book is because of Malta , my mom ( who has passed ) loved Malta so to a degree or felt like she was with me 🥰

Thank you Lela, Hamish , friends and family 🥰

Dirty Heartbreaker (Hamilton Steelhawks Series Book #3) by A. C. Sheppard – Review by Angela Hayes

Dirty Heartbreaker (Hamilton Steelhawks)Dirty Heartbreaker by Ac Sheppard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

Dirty Heartbreaker is the third instalment of the Hamilton Steelhawks series by A.C. Sheppard. This is the first book that I have read by this author and didn’t realise that it was the third book in a series when I started. Luckily it can be read as a standalone, as the series follows the Hamilton Steelhawks ice hockey team, where each book focuses on a different team member. So having read this, it has made me curious about the other team members, and so I will be going back to read the first two books to ‘meet’ those characters, before continuing on with any new instalments.
Colby and Gabriella’s story is a slow burn enemies to lover’s sports romance, where opposites attract, snarky banter abounds, and chemistry simmers- adding intrigue, spice, sparks, steam, drama, angst, and emotion.
The series is made up of (so far):
-Dirty Charmer (Book #1) — Max and Addie’s story.
-Dirty Lover (Book #2) — Jayden and Cait’s story.
-Dirty Heartbreaker (Book #3) — Colby and Gabriella’s story.
Now I am looking forward to ‘meeting’ the rest of the team!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, A.C. Sheppard!

Perfect Office Pact (Perfect Romance Series) by Maria Jane is a sweet opposites attract office romance. This is another fun romance, with just enough drama to keep things interesting.
With another simple and cute cover, it drew me, and it really suits the style of the story.
Having enjoyed Maria Jane’s other work, I happily grabbed a copy of this when I saw that it had released- and spent a couple of hours of light, entertaining reading.
Perfect Office Pact proved to be a light-hearted, interesting, and touching read. It is a enemies-to-friends-to-lovers story where opposites attract, and find love unexpectedly. Declan and Mira’s story is told from a duel POV, while providing plenty of emotion, humour, sweet and tender scenes, and starring great characters. I enjoyed the way the story was woven, even if it was a little predictable at times.
When Declan finds himself in a compromising situation, he will do anything to make things right. What happens makes for a sweet read.
I must admit that I didn’t like Mira to begin with, so I was a little worried that I would be disappointed – but Maria Jane wove her magic and Mira won me over in the end.
Looking forward to seeing what Maria Jane has in store for us next!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Maria Jane!
