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.

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago Series) by Anise Storm – Review by Brandy Rymer

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

Anise Storm wrote an amazing contemporary romance, Deceptively Yours, that will have you questioning what will happen next. This is the first book in the Titans of Chicago series and was absolutely intriguing. The author wrote this story going between the two main characters, Harper and Gabriel’s point of view. I love it when authors do this because you get to see how both main characters are feeling and have a deeper understanding of why their actions are as they are. This story starts out introducing us to Harper and Gabriel, two teenagers in love who have their whole lives together planned out, until one tragic night Harper finds out from Gabriel’s parents that her parents have died in a fatal car accident. Harper’s Uncle George comes to take her from Chicago, Illinois to live with him and his family in Portland, Oregon. After the move, Harper starts pulling away slowly from communicating with Gabriel, until one day out of the blue she breaks everything off. You will be shocked as to the horrors that caused Harper to make this decision. Ten years later the two meet up again, but will they be able to work past their hurt feelings and reconcile so they can at least be civil with one another, or will Gabriel refuse to speak to Harper, who is desperate to talk with Gabriel? The storyline keeps moving from one surprise to the next, flowing so smoothly that you won’t want to put the book down. I cannot wait for the next book in this series to come out, there are so many characters that we meet in this story that I would love to read more about, including Harper and Gabriel’s Titan friends.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Wow! Anise Storm left this reader on her toes, I could not put the book down. It is a dark romance and the plot twists are around every corner. When two childhood sweethearts are swept apart by death and distance, they find themselves together again under unlikely circumstances. Storm creates a tragic backstory for both main characters, and the journey they go through to find one another again is unbelievable. The reason I rated it 3.5 stars is due to the lack of character development. I feel that I could not completely connect to them, their situation, and the storyline in this regard.

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago Series) by Anise Storm – Review by Jess Engel

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago, #1)Deceptively Yours by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A good start to a new series. I really enjoyed the other Titans series by this author and was excited to start this one!

Overall, I really enjoyed this story. The author sets up a great plot with characters you want to root for. There is a lot of tragedy and some darker themes, but they are important pieces to the plot and really create depth to the character arcs. The author has an engaging writing style and I found myself engrossed in the book and turning the pages to the end, having to know what would unfold next. The attraction between Gabriel and Harper is palpable and there was steam coming through the pages.

While I really enjoyed this overall, I did feel there was a lot of repetition throughout the book. It is told from alternating points of view and frequently the reader would receive the same information several times as the characters rehashed events. There were moments I felt myself urging the story to just move forward because I had anticipation for what was going to happen next, but had to deal with the rehashing first.

Gabriel and Harper have a wild ride and there are wounds that run deep…can their relationship survive this wounds and the danger lurking around every corner?

Colby and Gabriella had a steamy time together once upon a time. Now they are back in each other’s orbit and they will probably spend time together off and on for many years to come. Her best friend is marrying his best friend and teammate. The push and pull between these two was a bit cliché, however it was still a fun book to read. I haven’t read any of the other books in the series and you don’t have to in order to follow this one. If you like fast paced romances with sports wrapped in I suggest giving this one a try.

Perfect Office Pact

I don’t find myself relating much to these younger characters, but I felt a connection Mira and her quest. I unfortunately decided too late to start my quest.

Mira is too young (as is her sister) to be as grown up and mature as they both are but I understand why they are both like that.

Declan has all the confidence in the world except it seems when working with Mira who was also a student of his while she was in real estate school.

I couldn’t put this book down and even stopped watching a baseball game because I had to find out what was going to happen next between the two and how it was going to end.

I absolutely adored this book, the characters and their story. I’m so glad to be off work so I can read all day instead of working. Great way to spend my day.

Dirty Heartbreaker: Hamilton Steelhawks Book 3

Why am I just finding this series? I wish I had stumbled across it sooner, but Colby and Gabriella were a great way to be introduced to the Hamilton Steelhawks hockey team.

I love sports series, while this particular book mostly takes place during the off season I enjoyed the relationships the players have with one another as well as their partners relationships with their men as well as the other significant others.

Colby and Gabby are dumb for two intelligent individuals. They don’t see what is right in front of them and do everything possible to avoid one another. But thankfully we have a happy ending.

The guys are great and I’m not sure who’s story I’m more ready for Gilly or Rocky, because I think they are both going down in flames.

I will be going back to read the first two books and will be keeping up with the Steelhawks in the future.

This was a great 5 star read. Gabby and Colby’s story pulled me right in. Gabby was hurt by a past relationship. But of course fate happens and at her best friend’s wedding she finds herself face-to-face with Colby. They agree to play nice for the wedding but can they keep their feelings at bay? Will they work things out and get a HEA? I really enjoyed this read and their story. All of the characters added a great element to the story. This is book three of a series but can be read as a stand alone. I would suggest reading from the beginning so you can get to know everyone. If you’re looking for a good second chance sports romance this is the book for you. 1-click and get started today.

Harper and Gabriel were young, and in love, until tragedy rips them apart. Years later, when Harper returns to finds herself in Gabriel’s presence once again, their reunion is anything but happy. However, these two fight the line between love and hate time and time again. And, when everything is on the line, the side that wins will seal their fate.

I love these characters. It is intense and dramatic, while also being steamy and emotional. This is not the first book that I have read from this author…and every book has been one that I haven’t been able to put down. As this is the first in the new series, I can’t wait to see what the rest of the series has in store.

The story between Colby and Gabriella was great to read. Gabriella and Colby want their best friends wedding to go without a hitch, but they absolutely loathe each other. They somehow manage to get along for the wedding and they find that they have an attraction to each other. Gabriella is former figure skater who makes costumes for figure skaters. Colby is a sniper for the Steelhawks. Their worlds clash quite a few times in the most spectacular way. I loved reading this story was quite impressed with the story building. I’m going to find the rest of the books in this series!

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago Book 1)

She has done it once again. I started this book just before going to bed. Laid in bed reading and before I knew it I was almost half done with the book.

Harper breaks my heart. She has such a happy young life. Parents are happy, is with the boy of her dreams, school is going well and overall she’s happy until she isn’t after some world altering news.

Gabriel is the next generation of the Chicago Titans, while we don’t know the first generation at this point I have a feeling we will get to know them through their kids.

I have read several books by Ms. Storm over the past years and she has yet to disappoint me. She is an instant click as soon as I see her name and will continue to click without thought.

I love this author’s writing style so I was very excited to jump into this romance! I really enjoyed this enemies to lovers romance. Mira is just starting out in her new job and is already not excited about her office mate. Then she meets her boss and he is also someone from her past. When a line is crossed Mira uses it to her advantage to get a leg up. I mean who can blame her. It was so easy to get into this story and will keep you turning pages to see what happens next. You don’t have to read all of the books in order either. I definitely recommend reading the others as they are really great reads!

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Mira thinks she is on the track of having everything she ever wanted. A long term boyfriend whom she thinks she loves and wants a future with, and she landed a job in one of the best Realty companies out there. The only issue is her boss.

Mira’s boss is a pompous jerk according to her. He was her professor when she took Real Estate classes and he seemed to get annoyed by every little thing she did so why would he hire her? She doesn’t want to question it but when it seems as if he still dislikes her, she starts questioning his motives. It seems as if Mira can’t get out of her own head and starts self sabotaging her relationship, she questions her boyfriends commitment to her. She blames the fact that she never knew her father as being the culprit of why she feels unlovable.

Declan appears as a narcissist but in reality he is just reserved with strong defenses around him. What Mira saw as hints of annoyance was actually hints of annoyance to his feelings about her. He shouldn’t like Mira that way since she is basically the opposite of him but he can’t help it. He crosses a line out of genuine care but Mira doesn’t see it that way and blackmails him to take her under his wing in the Realty world or else she will tell everyone what he did. Things are very strained and tense between the two. Declan needs to tell her how he feels but will she feel the same?

Honestly, I hated Mira’s character. She is judgemental and childish. Throughout the book she was all over the place. She would say one thing and then change her mind. Her thoughts were so repetitive that I started getting annoyed with her character quite early in the book. Mira mentions 3 guys at the beginning of the book that at first I had no idea who the love interest was actually going to be.

I was interested in Declan, he remained a mystery for the most part. You only receive glimpses of the real Declan as time goes on, but underneath he seems like a sweet guy who just had his broken so hes slow to open up.

This was such a cute office romance to read over the weekend. It’s a clean, sweet romance that was a nice break from my usual reading. This was my first book from this author, but I’ll be picking up more. It was refreshing to read about Mira and Declan as they evolved throughout the story. Mira is a strong woman that doesn’t take any guff from anyone. Declan wants to be more than just an office boss in Mira’s life. What’s more important, your career or love? It was fun to read, and though the flow of the story felt a bit jolting at times, overall, I really enjoyed the experience. If you like sweet, clean office romances, look no further!

I loved the emotional rollercoaster twisting and turning throughout, the highs are heartwarming, and the lows are heart-wrenching. I enjoyed the flow of the story as it grabbed me from the beginning and never let go. The characters are well-developed, and I felt invested in them immediately. Harper and Gabriel start out as teenagers that are in love but are quickly dealt some devastating blows. Will they be able to recover at all? Does time really heal all wounds? I raced through this book because I needed answers, and I cannot wait for the next in this series. If you enjoy romance, suspense, and plenty of emotion, you’ll absolutely love this book!

An enjoyable contemporary romance with an enemy to lovers and an office romance theme. Declan Jordan is Mira Vasquez’s boss but having crossed a massive line Mira could end his career. However, Mira uses the situation to her advantage and agrees not to say anything to the board if he helps further her career. Soon Declan wants to get to know Mira on a more personal level, but to do so means breaking their pact. He would have to take a chance that Mira won’t want to end his career once she knows him better. I liked having the dual POV as it meant I felt more engaged with both main characters. The chemistry between Mira and Declan came across in the narrative and I liked how their relationship developed throughout the story. A sweet romance with plenty of humour, emotions and a bit of drama all of which kept me happily turning the pages.

This one is was rough for me. Mostly because I did not care for the actions of both characters throughout most of the book. She is very combative and he seems restrictive and obviously has some sort of issue. Just their interaction through a large portion of the book was off putting. Him secretly wanting her and she is basically clueless for years. Too many breakdowns and tantrums for the story. There is very little romance and when they do she always has her foot half way out the door. Arg! I really felt for Declan numerous times. Just with his attitude and struggles he has to go through daily but he offers hope because never seems to give up trying.

Overall this is just an okay story for me. I think I wanted more pleasant interaction as time went on between them and it just doesn’t really happen.

This book is a really quick read and it had me sunk into it from the beginning. I would say that this author seems to actually really love hockey or did an amazing job with their research. I actually really loved that it wasn’t just about the romance and the pull and tug between battling feelings for one another, it actually had hockey it in. That said the romance in this book is great. Yes, I did roll my eyes a bunch during this book because of the constant, “I want him/her, I don’t want to want him/her.” You get so invested into this book because you want them to work and get over their things to be together because you can see how good they are together. It’s like everyone in the room can feel their tension when they are together and are just rooting for them. I could not put this book down, even as frustrated I got with it. That just means it is a really well written if I am so emotionally involved in what is happening. If you like hockey or love a sports romance, this book won’t disappoint.

This is a second chance at love contemporary romance with a dark element to it. I found myself engaged with the characters right from the start and the storyline kept me hooked. Harper and Gabriel were teenage sweethearts until tragedy parted them. When they meet again as adults Gabriel is still angry and hurt by Harpers actions. However, Harper has secrets, which explain why she did what she did thinking that by letting him go she could set him free. When they find that they are both in danger they can’t deny that all their old feelings are still there along with their connection.

This is my 1st time reading this author. I’m not usually a fan of sports themed books, but I gave this one a chance and I’m glad I did. I didn’t realize it was the 3rd book in the series, but it worked as a stand alone, so that was helpful. But I do feel like if you read them all you’d get more backstory on characters that made an appearance in this book. Colby and Gabby have chemistry, there’s no doubt about that. But he’s noncommittal and she’s not falling for his bluster again, not after the last time. When fate throws them together for the sake of their friends, they have to get along. If you love a good lovers to enemies to lovers again (sorta) story… This would be an amazing read for you. Also if you love a good spicy sports romance, with a HEA, this would be a good story for you. As I feel like probably the whole series would be. I can’t wait to read the other books in this series, now.

(Titans of Chicago Series) by Anise Storm – Review by Hannah Porter

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

Omg! I was super excited to be reading this author again(its always a pleasure😉😉lol). Anise Storm is a fantastic story teller, with amazing characters and crazy good world building. This is the only book of the series so far (sad face sad face) . This book really had me in a choke hold like omg. At times it really felt like the author had my heart In her hands and was squeezing it, really hit me in the feels good and bad. Although Harper and Gabriel had some really spicy scenes together that wasn’t the only reason I loved this book. So well written it had me flipping the pages Faster than I could keep up, with danger, spice, love and heart wrenching trauma that will definitely have you on an emotional roller-coaster. It can be triggering for some readers though so be cautious.
Ps I do highly recommend reading .I cannot wait for more book the this author

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have yet had the pleasure of picking a story by this author, A. C . SHEPPARD. Until now that it is🥰 I usually only read sport romance from time to time, and now is one of those times hahaha. I had to give this book a try (I may have been persuaded by the cover 🤣😍) im super glad i did. This is the 3rd book of the Hamilton SteelhawksHamilton Steelhawks series (can be read as a standalone)and I definitely have to go read the first two. Would love to read more from this world. This one follows Colby and Gabriella’s who are the best man and maid of honor in their friend’s wedding but let’s not forget , they were also a couple before hahaha. So it was perfect when they had to work with each other, making old feelings Reignite old feeling good and bad. The passion between them is almost palpable I truly enjoyed this read and am going the read the first one now 🤣

Deceptively Yours (Titans of Chicago Series) by Anise Storm

Deceptively Yours is the first book in the Titans of Chicago Series and is a Dark Contemporary Romance with a bit of suspense added in. There are some parts that may be a trigger for some but I promise it’ll be worth pushing through them. I’m not only a huge fan of this author but her Titans of Manhattan wass amazing and I couldn’t wait to dive into this one. I devoured this book in one afternoon because I simply couldn’t put it down I had to know what was going to happen next. Harper and Gabriel have grown up together and have been in love with each other sense a young age. These two are inseparable until tragedy strikes and she’s forced away. Over the years they have both been through things some terrible and some not. Can these two get a second chance at love? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.
