If you are looking for something short and steamy, a nice quick read, this is the one. There are two sexy reads in one, Tequila Sunset & Beneath the Sheets. The first book Cassie finally lands her best friend’s dad after suffering from a bad recent break up. It does check off the fantasy of being with a younger daddy. The only thing that kind of threw me off was the dialogue between them, at times I thought Cassie was a little too much, but that didn’t distract from the sexiness that was happening with them. In the second book is more on the sweet side to me, yes it is also short and steamy, but this one has friends that have reconnected after being apart for awhile. I’m happy Sarah found what she was looking for, it seems she has always loved Alex, and it looks like Alex may feel the same. I would definitely recommend this book for any romance lover who is looking for a quicky.

Mountford – Review by Carrie Reed
Sometimes, you just need a quick little pick me up to renew your view on romance, love, life, and all good things. That’s exactly why I picked this little novella up, and I can tell you, I wasn’t disappointed. As with most people, Ray and Lys (Alyssa) have fought their own demons, experience some turbulence within their relationship, and have the unfortunate circumstance of a shared loss. All of this brings them closer and closer together, and allow them to open their hearts to each other, and to really explore just how far their relationship can take them. My partner caught me smiling, and blushing a few times, and inquired as to what exactly I was reading, if that gives you any indication as to how well this novella is written. Amazing little reprieve from the real world. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you, Amy L. Gale!

Slow Burn is book two in the Breathing Hearts series by A.K. Macbride. The pendulum swung in every emotional direction in this story. There was humour, sadness, tension, conflict, and a whole plethora of feels for a reader to bask in. The story was engaging and addictive. The characters were lovable and ridiculously entertaining. This story made me deliriously happy and kept me on edge for hours. I totally immersed myself in this vibrant cast and got lost in the journey. A stunning addition to a series that is becoming a passion of mine. 5 stars.

So Close was a good 4 star read. Dahlia worked hard to get a promotion at her job. After getting promoted she is put in charge of the new building project. When she finds out who she will be working with she is not thrilled at all. She hasn’t seen him in years.
Levi was surprised to see that he would be working with Dahlia. He’s hoping that maybe he can finally get a chance to talk to her and explain his actions. She does a pretty good job at trying to keep things professional but he won’t have that. Her walls start to come down and her old feelings are definitely there.
Will she finally listen to what Levi has to say? Can they have a future together?
Overall I really enjoyed this book. I couldn’t wait to find out the truth right along with Dahlia. The connection between these two was great. I enjoyed watching them reconnect. If you’re looking for a good read, 1-click and get started today on this book. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series

I always enjoy the backstory we get any time Regent is at the helm of a story. Any hopeless romantics out there will be rooting for Dahlia from page one to find the happily ever after she deserves. Predictable at times but still a beautiful story, this is a book romance lovers will enjoy that will leave you smiling.

I really enjoyed this story. Even though its not a big book the story is complete. It is full of a complete love from the moment that Brody and Willa meet. The connection between them is instant. Brody is a famous actor and when Willa says she wants to know the real Brody that makes him instantly fall in love with her.
However things are always plain sailing with Willa’s ex and Brody’s assistant plotting against them to destroy their relationship can Willa and Brody see through their lies and keep their relationship strong. Or will something push them apart.

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites yet. This is a hot, steamy box set that has a collection of two short stories that are guaranteed to heat up your night. One of the things I love about this author is their attention to details that gave the story a realistic feel. This book is no different. This author brings the steam to a new level with each story. The characters are connectable as well as keep the story engaging. This is an easy, entertaining story that is fast paced which I didn’t put down until the last page. The characters are unique, hot, steamy as they give life to their stories. You don’t want to miss this box set, it is a must read. I highly recommend this book and this author.

I enjoyed this sports romance story. This is my first book by this author which I enjoyed and can’t wait to see what is next for her. I enjoyed how her use of details made the story realistic. I also enjoyed how I was pulled into the story from the beginning by the characters. They made the story engaging and hard to put down. They are connectable and bring the story to life on each page. This is a fast paced story that was entertaining and easy to read. This is a story about Alyssa and Ray. What will happen when the two of them meet when he walks into her real estate office? He hires her for some marketing of his business along with the town’s politics but what he gets is a little more than he was expecting. As they fight their passion as they share their grief in a tragedy. What happens to these two you don’t want to miss. Their chemistry and the passion they try to fight is strong. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout the story and what they brought to the story. This is a great romance story that I truly enjoyed. I highly recommend this book.

Best friends to lovers and enemies to lovers are my top 2 tropes I love and this book melded those 2 together in the most perfect way. I was on an emotional roller coaster through this with these 2. Dahlia and Levi took me for ride here with their story and was a great addition to this amazing series.

This novella was so cute! Willa and Brody are he most adorable, actually speaking their minds instead of playing ridiculous games like in most romance books. I wish this book would have been longer because I wanted to learn so much more about them but this novella was the perfect pick me up after some intense reading. It was a light and happy read and of course happily ever after. there was a good combination of OH NO moment and of course who doesnt like an ex-boyfriend villan and jealous assistant. It has all the making of a great movie.

So Close: A Best Friends To Enemies to Lovers Romance (Love Grows Series Book 4) by Renee Regent
Well, Ms. Regent has done it again. She wrote a book I throughly enjoyed and had a hard time putting down.
Dahlia bugged me at first but once I learned the full story, I think I fell in love just a little bit. She hasn’t had the easiest few years but she has done an amazing job moving on and giving her son Beckett the best possible life.
Oh Levi, where do I start. I’m a sucker for a Southern Gentleman and Levi is the epitome of that. He is a good guy period, but the way he is with Beckett is heart melting.
I’m looking forward to the next book and catching up with everyone.

Caught by Him by Tammy Mannersly is a sweet love story that is well written and full of hope when you find what you didn’t know you were looking for. They are from two different worlds and if that isn’t enough people are trying to keep them apart. It is a short but captivating romance story with a whole lot of chemistry. The story is fast paced but it flows nicely. Tammy makes it easy to get lost in the world she has created with lovable characters and enough drama and suspense to give it that little bit more. I look forward to what comes next.

Renee Regent is a great author. I stumbled upon one of her books a while ago and ever since, she has been a go-to author for me. This book definitely will not disappoint. Dahlia has been promoted and within 24 hours her past comes barreling into her present. She has worked hard for this promotion and she won’t let anything get in the way. Levi and Dahlia were best friends growing up. They both had feelings for eachother but their friendship meant so much to them and never let those feelings out. When Dahlia see Levi at her job and realizes what he’s doing there, she doesn’t know what to do. She hasn’t seen or spoken to Levi in almost a decade. Now she has to work closely with him and be his point of contact for the next 6 weeks. Will she be able to remain mad at Levi or will he break down her walls and make her understand.
Such a great read. Today was a super emotional day for me and reading this made it worse lol.

This is the 4th book in the Love Grow Series, but the first one I read. Can be read as a standalone. I did not feel like I was missing anything by not reading the previous books. I do like her writing style and want to go back and read the others though. This is the story of Dahlia Perez and Levi Vance. They grew up next door to each other, had crushes on each other, but the time never seemed right. They were never single at the same time. Dahlia has married and divorced. A strain on her and Levi’s relationship has made her avoid him for seven years. Now he is back and she can’t avoid him. Can her heart melt enough to let him back in? Can he say the right words to get her to forgive him? This was a great feel-good love story that showed that even though we make mistakes, sometimes we are lucky enough to fix them.

I enjoyed how the characters are connectable and made the story engaging. This is a fast paced story that I had a hard time putting down. It is an easy, fun and entertaining story. There is a new neighbor in the neighborhood. He is hot, steamy but he is also full of attitude and rude. How hot will things get with these characters? Will someone get burned? I enjoyed the growth and chemistry throughout the story. I really enjoyed this story and what the characters brought to the story. I highly recommend this book.

These two books, bring a whole lot of steaminess’ and desire to the page. I should add not just to a singe page, but to multiple! The pages were full of passion, heat, and chemistry, and it brought the hotness to more extremes, and were so good to read in more ways than one!
The first story I got to enjoy, was to me about temptation and dark chocolate. You know you want it, but shouldn’t have it, but you go for a bite anyway. And you do not stop there. You keep going till you devour it all. That was what this one was like. A girl who believes she doesn’t have that appeal to be sexy or desirable. Until she spends time with her friend’s father. I must add the friend is also her best friend? Her friend’s father awakens something in her , and the heat and the passion combine in one making the pages themselves sweat with their own desire and the heat they bring. The story was so good and naughtily in different ways to read, after all don’t we all desire the temptation we shouldn’t want, but yet we do?
The second one brought just as much to the table, but a history of friendship. So I guess to me it was more than just lust and desire, there was old feelings buried that maybe would never surface or maybe just the right about of lust and heat could awaken those feelings? 2 prior best friends, who lost everything they had of a night spent together may get their happy ending after maybe. They end up corresponding years after everything they had blew up in flame, and they meet again after so long. Perhaps there was more than just beneath the sheets till why Sarah left Alex the way she did? the sparks flying when they meet again had me so invested in then, in reality I just wanted them to rip their clothes off and go at it! This one was delightful as it was sexy and steamy!
The author knew how to grasp their readers and take them as if they are bound for a night of sexiness’. That’s what happened here for sure. I was devoured by the heat and passion of these two novels. And like any good steamy event, I was left wanting more, so much more. the author is quite good at setting the scene and delivering the steam from there with all other factors entwined. I really enjoyed these books and I will be sure be reading more by then! I need this level of steaminess’ in my life more often! If you are looking for a read to give you that certain heat and lust…then read these. You will not have any regrets!

This is officially my favorite of the series. It had me feeling every emotion possible and I literally read this in one afternoon because I could not put it down.
I cried, I laughed, I got so angry, I had those amazing “How Sweet ” moments, and I can not wait to read this again. I love this whole series and although they can each be read as standalones, I recommend reading them all as characters from other books do show up throughout.
I love Best Friend stories, especially ones like this that are full of history and pull at your heartstrings. I’m also a sucker for an awesome twist, even if it causes me to want to throw and stomp on my kindle.
I loved this and as I’ve said before in other reviews, I will absolutely read all of these again.

Troy Jimenez is one of the top managers at Suds Car Wash-Richmond, but is also a huge player. From his constant flirting with customers to him indulging in many of the employees, he loves the ladies, and with his good looks and charm, he knows he can get any woman that comes into his path.
That was until Reece Palmer came into his life.
Reece is everything Troy wants in a woman: smart, ambitious, and sexy as hell. As he tries to find ways to get with her, Reece is definitely not falling for his antics, making Troy wonder if she’s worth the fight.
Or is she?
After quitting her job and abruptly leaving the only city she knows, Reece decides to move to Houston to be near her cousin, Vanessa, her husband, Mark, and their daughter Samantha. She doesn’t know what direction her life is heading, but she knows she needs a job fast. Her cousin suggests she come work at Suds as the new office manager. With the location needing a bit of a facelift, Reece is up for the challenge; little did she know she also need to get the manager in line. In more ways than one.
With the daily theatrics of the business, including bickering amongst the employees, and rude customers, Reece has her job cut out for her; but the real issue is with Troy. She wants to strangle him on a daily basis, making her wonder if her feelings for him are pure hate, or something more.
The constant interaction between the two will make them wonder if there is something more between them. While Reece is trying not to get involve with a co-worker, Troy has even bigger demons to deal with, causing him to finally face them head-on.
Will the two be able to get past their personal issues to see where their feelings are for each other, or will their dilemmas push them further away from what is right in front of them?

A hidden gem! To say that I enjoyed this book is an understatement. This novel digs deep and wrenches every bit of emotion from you. There is remorse, disappointment, hurt, and happiness (just to name a few) that transcend from the pages and envelopes the reader in a cocoon where the reader has no other choice but to be a part of the characters’ journey. I admire Tank’s strength in making amends for the disservice done to the heroine and Charlie’s bravery in her vulnerability. Their path towards reconciliation was organic and realistic. This highlighted the fragility of trust, that once broken is possible to mend. Thank you, Trish, for this beautiful story.

Repair was probably one of the best books I have read this year. I would give this book 10 stars if that was even possible. This book was amazing from the very first page to the very last.
The book starts the day of Jack Easton’s funeral. Charlotte ( Charlie ) and her family are there to support Tank on this horrible day. Tank is pretty much part of the family. Tank and Charlie’s brother Jude have been best friends forever. Charlie has had a crush on Trent for just about her whole life. Trent and Charlie leave so Trent can go change. They never make it back. They end up going somewhere and spending the night. The next day some hurtful things were said which causes Charlie and Trent to never speak a word to eachother for 8 years. Just and Trent’s friendship takes a bit of a hit since Charlie leaves town all because of Trent.
8 years later, Charlie returns to her hometown of Sunnyville along with a job transfer. What will happen when Trent and Charlie see eachother? So much has happened. Trent has a lot to tell Charlie but, will he? Chapter 19/20 totally gets me and I was going to have to have words with the author. Haha!
You definitely don’t want to miss out on this great read. I cannot wait for book 2. Such a great read!

This is my favorite story by this author. There is drama and action and the characters have real world problems to overcome. This also is a triangle style that I have not read before. That alone made this intriguing on how the author handled this situation.
I really enjoyed these characters and storyline. They made me smile and I easily identified with them. I loved each of their jobs. Levi’s especially is very different and interesting. That is something that makes a book stand out to me. The uniqueness of the characters and plot.
The only thing I felt was iffy in here is the complete turn around of one character. This person is combative, full of their self and showy. I just couldn’t see that type of person showing tears and all of a sudden…nice. Maybe as time goes by..changes could occur…like the epilogue..that fits. I think I looked at all these characters as “real world” and I forgot they are fictional and can do anything. Anyway this is a blip in an otherwise wonderful story.
This is not my first book by this author but I feel it is her best. The story moves along at a good pace and I was drawn Into these lives. This is well rounded and I enjoyed it.

When I first picked this book I thought ‘The Don, has to be mafia, download’
Boy was I wrong but in a good way. This book includes, Gods, Demi-gods and if you know more about mythology then I do(and you don’t have to Google during the book) it pulls in real stories and ties in great characters.
⭐️ Raef 🥵 is my favorite right now. ⭐️ Grey(Hades) is ok, he’s more of an alpha-hole in this book but I have a feeling he softens up. ⭐️ Vanessa is the H and I love 🥰 her from the moment she was introduced; such a heart of gold and her family is #1.
I can not tell if this is going to be a RH, which would be fabulous, 🙌🏻 Or a love 💕 triangle.
Either way, I am here for it and I can not wait to keep reading this series.

So Close is the 4th book in the Love Grows series by Renee Regent. Although part of a series, each book can be read as a stand-alone. I have read the previous book in the series and enjoyed them all so was really excited to read another book in this series. In So Close we get the story of Dahlia and Levi. Dahlia and Levi were best friends as kids but have since become enemies. What’s going to happen when they have to work together on a project? I really enjoyed reading Dahlia and Levi’s story. You are kept waiting quite a while to find out why they became enemies and this kept me gripped to the story. I wanted/needed to know what went wrong to end their friendship. Levi is determined to get Dahlia back as a friend…and more and will do anything to get back into her good books. This makes for a very entertaining read which had me not want to put this book down. Dahlia and Levi are both great characters that you can easily relate to and you can’t help but hope that they get their HEA.
