Hilarious steamy rom-com for even those in certain stages of life. Ben and Kaitlyn are a feisty couple that brings the heat no matter where they are, bantering on the ice, playing mahjong with Beatrice, or between the sheets! These two push and pull each other to be the best.
I love all the hockey players. Psssst….these authors sound like they actually know hockey! Makes the story come alive!!

Emotionally delightful romance with a taste of steam. Endearing characters that deserve the HEA.
Alexa “Lexie” needed a change in her life. She just got stood up at the altar by a man she is not sure she loved. She started with something small that made a difference to her. Alexa had always been known as Alex but she wasn’t her anymore. Only one person called her Lexie but it was enough. Now if she could just figure out the rest of her world.
Jake had been burned. He was in love with his high school sweetheart who one day told him that she didn’t love him anymore and that there was someone else in her life. When tragedy happened and she wound up in a coma serving as an incubator of the precious life she was growing, Jake’s heart grew cold. There were so many questions left unanswered. Jake had to shake it off and be a father to that tiny little bundle that played no part in hurting him.
Lexie was on her way to a 2-week vacation when a blown tire, a feral hog and a rainstorm changed everything. Jake was her saving grace, helping her out of the mud. Now she was stuck, sort of, with Jake taking care of her and her dog, Biscuit. The only problem was the intense attraction she felt towards Jake and his adorable daughter, Katie.
As Jake’s past came back to bite him in the caboose, Lexie was figuring out what she wanted. Jake couldn’t fight the growing attraction to Lexie. Lexie and Jake managed to work through the pain of the past together with plans of making a future, also together.

In this YA sweet romance, one can find the wholesomeness of first love and the idiocy of teenagers. Valeria is a teen just trying to make friends while starring in a teen drama and completing high school. It comes along with the normal teen drama, except now it gets played in the tabloids, not just social media. Can you imagine breaking up with your boyfriend splashed all over ET and the front page of some gossip rag??
Valeria faces not only heartbreak but betrayal because the moment the ex dumped her via text (BTW), he started or possibly continued to date the person Valeria considered her best friend. All three of them star in the same TV show. Valeria now has to look at her ex with stars in her eyes for the cameras while trying not to feel hurt and sad. Add in rumors about firings due to decreased ratings.
Valeria manages to make friends with another cast member about her age. To sprinkle more drama into the mix, Valeria runs into her first love, Davis, on the streets of NYC one day. They start talking and reconnect. The only problem is that every aspect of Valeria’s life is immortalized in pictures and video, even random moments like her walking home from a non-date. The pressure becomes too much for Davis and he tries to walk away.
Valeria must overcome some of her own fears and insecurities to have a chance with Davis. With guidance from a surprising source, Valeria starts coming into her own. This sweet romance is a cute quick read.

I was not prepared for the steam to start at practically the beginning but I am here for it.

What a jerk and other words that I can’t use in book reviews!! 😃

For some reason, it could be that she is his best friend’s wife’s best friend, but there is more and Liam doesn’t understand it. Emma is beautiful and desirable but there is so much more to her. Liam’s first instincts towards Emma are protective and an interest to know more. Liam knows that his history won’t let it be any more than smexyfuntimes.

This emotional rollercoaster will have you guessing until the end. There were lots of twists and turns. I was there for them all. This author managed to bring back all the characters from the series and wrap it up nicely.
When June is at her wits end, she decides her only choice is her nemesis. June chooses to approach Dallas, the biggest, wealthiest, and cockiest venture capitalist in the business. They have had a checkered past. It leads them to this moment in time. June needing help, Dallas looking for his next big success.
Dallas accidently links their lives together with one invitation. In such a short time, Dallas and June become so much more than business partners. Not giving any details, can’t give it away.
The author rips your heart out and then puts it back with love and care. Read this book. Read this series. Beautifully written.

With Shattered Embrace and who they are being so much of the focus of Zach and Ashton’s story, I am a little disappointed we didn’t get more club or scene-y scenes. I hope that with the next one in the series, we get that.
After Ashton and Zach finally agree to be ‘boyfriend and girlfriend’ while in the process of defining and establishing their other roles, Ashton and Zach continue to get to know one another. When Ashton receives the job offer that seems too good to be true, Zach freaks out. This causes much tension in their world.
Ashton takes the time to figure things out for herself. Ashton goes to Atlanta, home of the new job, for a tour and an interview. While there, her new boss takes her to an exclusive bar/club. This new possible boss is hiding his agenda from Ashton. That is not all he is hiding. Secrets are revealed. So many secrets. Ashton and Zach have the fight they have been needing to have for a while and things start to smooth out for everyone.
Part of what I like about this series is that the storyline isn’t ending. In the next book, we might change focus on the couple but the overarching story remains. And, I am here for it. I have so many questions that need to be answered. I am looking forward to Derek’s story as well as getting answers.
Don’t wait!! Jump in now before we are 5 books deep!! A little spice, a lot of sass, a dash of mystery, a pinch of suspense and a sprinkling of romance make this series an excellent recipe for success!
If you like Bad Boys, this collection offers you a little bit of everything. From age gap to shifter, this group of stories has it. Pay attention to the trigger warnings. Know your limits. Not all the stories were my thang but each was a quick steamy read.

Harry and Trey were a match made in somewhere. I hope they figure it out. The chemistry between them was palpable from their opening banter. They are adorable together.
Harriet “Harry” Smith is stuck. She has been in the same routine for way too long. Harry’s birth parents gave her up for adoption by leaving her on the steps of a police precinct as an infant. Luckily the officer that found her fell in love and adopted her. It was just Harry and her dad (and all the officers) until 5 years ago when he was killed in the line of duty. Harry took a different path than planned.
Trey Popov is a petty criminal that has recently appeared on the scene in connection with the local Russian mob. Trey runs into Harry when she is asked to trail Trey. Harry is a Private Investigator that has been employed by the NYPD. There is an instant connection between Harry and Trey. Except….they can’t. They can’t be in a relationship together because of who they are.
You might figure out the secret if you keep up with all the clues, twists, and turns. You might not. When it comes out, you will know.
Excellent read! Family is really who you choose to have in your life.

This author manages to weave the steam in with the suspense in mesmerizing ways. In this addition to the series, there are a few surprises along the way. The distrust adds to the tension throughout the story. Not everyone is who they seem to be.
Finlay, an investigative reporter, is undercover as Fiona trying to find a friend’s younger sister that has gotten caught up in the world of human trafficking. Finlay might have jumped into this investigation unprepared, not only for what she discovers but for the situation. Finlay jumped without looking when her friend called in a panic about the sister. Now Finlay is about 10 days from walking away from the club where she is working as a mixologist and exposing what actually goes on at the club. Finlay knows the organization is bigger than what goes on at the bar, but she didn’t realize how big or that she kicked the hornet’s nest getting this far.
Drake is only going to check on Finlay because she is friends with the boss’ wife. That is what he tells himself anyway when he agrees to take this assignment. When he walks in and sees what is going on and who the players are, Drake knows that Finlay is not only in over her head but also in danger. No matter how Drake tries to convince Finlay to let the special investigative security company he works for, composed of former military special forces operatives, take over the investigation, Finlay won’t budge. Finlay made a promise to her friend and she plans to see it through.
As Finlay and Drake get closer to the truth, the danger increases. People are being thrown out of windows and disappearing. Friends are risking their own safety for Finlay and she won’t let anyone get hurt for her. Finlay, Drake and company agree to a plan but things go wrong when Finlay goes missing from the club. As things come closer to the end, Finlay finds out who her true friends are. And, who her true family is.
There is so much heat between Finlay and Drake…wow! I hope we get to see some of these characters again! Seb and Alexis seem great together! Zola is strong and a survivor. I have a feeling that Gabriella is not gone forever. But we can only wait (not so patiently) and see. Jump into this series now!!
One can truly underestimate what the human body is able to take. Well, most people anyway. Not this author. She will take the human body and spirit right to the very edge and then slowly walk it back to sanity. Amazing.
Tim is thriving in his position. But Chase takes care of family. So Tim agrees to go Maine to care for a friends’ partner. Tim meets a traveling nurse helping out at the same hospital. They bond over everything from patient care to being from DC to movies to food. They just get each other. Tim is truly smitten and takes it slow. He doesn’t want to spook the best thing that ever happened to him.
Willow started as a traveling nurse shortly after her relationship to a possessive, controlling, abusive doctor ended with an intervention from her brothers. These contracts only took Willow away for 3 months at time but they kept her on the move and from building attachments to anyone. Until Tim. Tim sparked things in her that no one had ever before. When he left her in Maine, She took a long hard look at what she wanted and what she wanted was Tim. Willow reached out to him in DC.
Tim’s return home began with an exploding bus. Things only got more complicated from there. A colleague reached to discuss a growing problem of possible contaminated chemo drugs. As the mystery grew, so did Tim and Willow’s relationship. But Willow didn’t want to stop being Willow. Just as their relationship was taking new steps, Willow was requested for a new contract position in California. It was only 13 weeks. Could Willow and Tim make it that long?
As Willow started her new job, Tim clasped 3 miles from the end of the annual marathon he ran honoring his mother. Upon examination, it was more than just the sinus infection and exhaustion Tim thought it to be. It was lymphoma. Willow had to make the choice, return home to be with Tim or risk everything to stay? Willow chooses love.
As Tim gets worse, the conspiracy to flood the market with under-effective or contaminated chemo drugs is revealed. As the players are identified, there are many surprises. Relationships are destroyed. People are not who they were thought to be. Money and power lust rule. Will Tim survive? Can their new love overcome the trials?
This one was a little heavy with all the medical jargon and procedures but it all turns out to be necessary to the story. Great recurring cast of characters. Can’t get enough of Flynn!! Love how the Chase family takes care of their own. Another fantastic addition in this series!!

Dunn – Review by M Policicchio
This was a brilliant finish to an absolutely fantastic series. I am sorry to see it end. I am so over the moon for Roy and CC. James did not deserve what Sam did at the restaurant. I was shocked!! I am going to miss this family like old friends.
James has been with Sam for a while and even though things have been strained lately, James is ready to take it to the next level. He plans a romantic dinner. Sam is late. It does not go the way James planned. When he leaves the restaurant, James goes home alone and Sam heads off to live her dream. James decides he is swearing off love for a while. And it works for about a minute until James is yelled at by a mystery woman that sets his heart aflutter.
Sara is a traveling nurse. She takes on a job for several months up to a year, and then she moves on to a different location, different job. This has been her life for the last 9 years. She feels it works for her but her son is getting older and has started hating moving. Sara has many reasons to keep moving. Now she has taken a job caring for Roy Bennett. This leads to her having an interesting path crossing with James.
James finds a way to keep Sara close. James moves Sara and Noah, her son, out to the farm to get them out of the hotel where they were staying. The Bennett family envelopes Sara and Noah into their clan. This move even gives Roy a chance at romance!
Throughout the story, we wrap up some questions about what is going on with all the rest of the Bennetts. I think there is more Bennett together time in this book than in all the others. I am here for it. They are a great family. I am sad to wrap up my time with them. It has been a great ride!!
Find time to put this series on your TBR if you haven’t already started it!!!!

Piper is freakin’ awesome!! I love her. Wyatt is adorable. I hope we get to see more of them in this series. I wanted to slap Pippa. She deserves so much more than she got from Piper.
Piper has recently been betrayed in a HUGE way. No one should be hurt this way. It is one thing to find out your boyfriend is cheating but to find out it has been going on for months behind your back and with the one person that should never betray you was just way too much for Piper. She decides she is done with relationships. Piper decides to be a casual hookup kinda girl from now on. That is what she thinks her casual encounter with Wyatt is going to be.
Wyatt “Bax” Baxter saw her the moment she walked in the door of the bar. She was different. There was just an air about her. She turned every guy away, some more than once, except for this one that won’t leave her alone. When Wyatt lends a hand to help chase the guy away, he didn’t imagine it would lead to more. It does. Now he can’t stop thinking about her.
Wyatt and Piper run into each other on campus. She still refuses to give him her phone number. Even after he dedicates a touch down to her. Piper is too afraid of getting hurt again. When Piper finally decides to give Wyatt a chance, Pippa, Piper’s sister, nearly blows it up in a big way! Forgiveness goes a long way for those seeking it.
This author always manages to suck me in and make me feel. I hate that but love the books. Can’t get enough of this series!! Another stellar read!!!

“Molly doesn’t date men. Lachlan doesn’t date period. So can they stick to the script? Molly Rose’s final grad school project is to stage the play she wrote. How on earth did her girlfriend find the absolute perfect cast for the kilt-wearing Scotsman role? Well, he looks the part, but he knows nothing about acting. It hasn’t escaped anyone’s notice that Lachlan Adair is ruggedly handsome. Molly’s polycule insists she keep an open mind, but she hasn’t dated a man since a series of disastrous attempts in high school, and she certainly doesn’t intend to start now. Lachlan doesn’t know how he got roped into helping out with this MFA student’s thesis project, but she’s so curvy and cute. And she seems to like his accent. Apparently she has a girlfriend and lives in a house full of other freaky folks. No big deal. When the play is over, their fling will be too. Right?” Do they fall in love? Will have to read the book to find out. Great funny characters, bit of spice with suspense and comedy. I suggest readers 18+ and older. Lots of spice. The book was entertaining, gripping, and a quick read. I give this book 4 stars.

Another amazing Titans story from this author! New city, new titans, new badazz FMC.
Harper and Gabriel grew up knowing that they were each other’s. There were only a handful of times they were apart. They shared their first kiss at seven. Harper fought her way back into the group when Gabriel didn’t want the girl hanging with the boys anymore at 10. Gabriel and Harper shared many first along the way. It was just the way it was until the unthinkable happened.
Harper was 16, almost 17, when her parents died in a car accident. Harper was ripped out of her life in Chicago and forced to move with her uncle to Portland, Oregon. He was the only family she had left. Her uncle was not a nice man. His son, Jayson, was worse. They made Harper’s life a living hell. Not wanting to drag down Gabriel, and too ashamed of what was happening to her to tell him what was going on, Harper broke Gabriel’s heart shortly after moving to Portland.
Gabriel was never the same after Harper dumped him. He claimed that he hated her but deep down that was just covering his hurt and love for her. When she calls him out of the blue nearly a decade after she destroyed him, he lashes out and blows off her call. When she shows up at a charity auction and buys a date with him, he is cruel and a complete and an utter jerk towards her. His cruel words drive Harper away but she never gives up trying to protect him.
Harper believes that Gabriel’s life is in danger because she started to investigate what happened to her inheritance. Knowing that Gabriel hated her, Harper does her best to get him to listen. He refuses. Harper tries to protect him all on her own and winds up getting kidnapped. Gabriel is tempted to ignore Harper’s pleas for help when they come in but he listens to the better angels, and helps Harper. He realizes that all of Harper’s actions were not trying to get back in his life but because there was real danger.
When this danger is neutralized, Gabriel convinces Harper that they are safe. When Harper heads back to Portland to wrap up her business there and pack to relocate back to Chicago, Harper finds out that she is still in danger. Will Gabriel find out? Will he be able to save her this time?
Stellar opening to the series. Can’t go wrong with a Titans book.

This was a beautifully written book about not only finding family that will accept you but new experiences. Take Lachlan “Lanny” for example. He not only got to act in his first play but he learned all about polycules and what it means to be poly. I have to admit the polycule was a new term for me.
Molly is a playwright. She is attempting to earn her MFA, all she has to do is have a successful play. She needs the perfect leading man. She hasn’t found him yet until her girlfriend, Poe, suggests someone new. Poe pushes the maintenance guy working in her building to audition for Molly’s play. He is perfect. He even has no problem with the accent.
Lachlan is surprised when someone approaches him about helping out with a play. Lachlan figures they need a set built or something, since that is what he does. When he gets there, it turns out that the director, a beautiful curvy woman he has an immediate attraction to, is looking for a leading actor that can pull off a Scottish accent. Luckily for Lachlan, the accent is built in since he is Scottish! Willing to give it a chance, Lachlan says yes.
As Molly and Lachlan spend more time together turning him into an actor, the more their mutual attraction builds. This leads to problems for Molly because she has not dated a man in nearly a decade. Also, Molly is dating Poe and although they have an open relationship, Molly has not been with anyone else since starting to date Poe. Molly fights the internal battles of the attraction to Lachlan and her fears that Poe is pulling away. This is Lachlan’s first experience with polyamory. He has to adjust.
Adding to the drama is Molly’s sister’s wedding. Molly’s family is devout Evangelical Christian and does not approve of her lifestyle or so she thinks. Molly wants to take Poe to the wedding as her date but doesn’t want to upset her pastor father, who holds the purse strings to her trust fund that is paying for her education.
As the tensions boil, Molly, Poe, and Lachlan all have to confront their feelings for each other and learn how to navigate the situation. The way the polycule supports Molly and Poe is a wonderful thing. Cynda’s insight is instrumental in helping build bridges. If nothing else, this story proves that love is not always one dimensional. You can love different people at the same time, equally but differently. This wonderful story also taught me some new vocabulary.
Polyamory and open relationships may not be your bag, however, understanding the dynamics allows one to gain knowledge regarding the lifestyle. Wonderfully written.

I shoulda given it a 4 for making me have all the feels and leaving me hanging the way you did but …I guess that’s why you deserve the 5. Just so you know I am mad about all the feelings that you made me have while reading this book. I was happy, I remember that just falling in love feeling, the hormones racing making out with my then boyfriend, the anger I felt at Nick (the stupid jerkface!), and the shock at Mei Li’s mom. Oh, almost forgot to mention the love for and humor from Guo Mama. She was almost my favorite character.
Mei Li moved to the United States when she was 8 years old with her parents. She lives in Chinatown, San Francisco. Her parents own and run a local Chinese/Taiwanese restaurant. She has friends in the neighborhood, goes to the Chinese speaking neighborhood school, works at the family restaurant, and has a crush on the boy around the corner. Mei Li was a typical senior in high school. Except her family expected her to marry a family friend that was 7 years older than her.
Marcus Miller (or as Guo Mama called him “Marcus Miller”) was not a typical high school senior. Marcus was a straight A student, star soccer player, but did not date. He made a deal with his father freshman year of highschool to avoid girls, girlfriends and mess that his father said came with girls. If Marcus accomplished this feat, his father would buy him a motorcycle. One day while visiting Guo Mama, Marcus met Mei Li. Marcus was smitten. They started exchanging notes until Marcus finally got brave enough to give Mei Li his phone number. They both fell so fast.
The relationship should not be a problem for either one except for the secrets each is keeping. As Mei and Marcus spend more time together, the closer they become. The more dangerous their relationship becomes. When the secrets start to boilover, Mei Li must make some difficult choices. The biggest and hardest involves Marcus. When the choices are made, it may surprise you.
I was shocked at the ending. I can’t believe that was how it ended. I have so many questions. Is it too much to hope for a sequel?? I want to know what happened to Mei Li’s father. What does Mei Li do with all the info from the envelope? And so many other things. This was a beautifully written story. The teenage angst dripped from every page. Not my usual but tremendously enjoyed!!!

I couldn’t believe the twists in this sweet romantic mystery. I mean who saw the crazy coming! This is my first Eve Sawyer adventure.
Eve Sawyer is a journalism major at a local college. She wants to be an investigative journalist. It seems like she is starting early by helping the police solve crimes in her spare time. In this story, Eve is contacted by her friend’s mother, stating that her friend never came home and is missing. Eve soon discovers that the friend’s boyfriend is missing too. Are the two disappearances linked?
As Eve starts looking for her friend, she discovers so much going on. A bad break-up, a deceased father, an overprotective mother, a mystery ancestry hit, and an unexpected ransom situation. What seems connected may not be but could be. The crazy series of events that led to the big truth reveal was out of this world. Not to mention the budding romance between Eve and her investigation buddy.
Overall a good listen for the afternoon!

This is one of the best hockey romances I have read in several years. The authors’ knowledge and understanding of hockey, the game, the players feels real. This one is different. There seems to be a real love of the game here, not to mention the name dropping. This helps make the book more enjoyable.
Gabby and Colby have both been hurt. Each resigns themselves to a life of one and done’s. Except every time they are in a room together, they are pulled together like magnets. Neither of them want to admit that it is more. Neither want it to be more. The first night they are together, he sneaks out. The second time, she does.
Now, Gabby’s best friend is marrying his friend and teammate. This means they will be in each other’s orbit more and more. Gabby is the Maid of Honor and Colby is the Best Man adding a level of togetherness neither wants to experience. Fireworks and mayhem ensue. When the wedding is done, so is Gabby. She won’t keep flying close to the flame that is Colby hoping not to get burned.
So, not going to add spoilers here. The team are fantastic characters. I want things to work out for Gilly. I need Rocky to find a shy, introverted librarian. Can’t wait for the next in the series. Looking forward to adding a Steelhawks jersey to my collection!! Love it!

C. Sheppard – Review by M Policicchio
Mateo didn’t grow up with many choices. After his parents brought him to the US from Puerto Rico, he wound up living with his grandmother who was in poor health. When Mateo’s grandmother died, he didn’t have much choice and gave into the neighborhood gang. Mateo moved up fast. Mateo was willing to do almost anything. Only one person in his life thought he was worth anything. Janey was his best friend’s sister.
Janey didn’t have things easy either. After Janey’s mother died, her father became abusive and neglectful. Her brother, Scott, wasn’t much better. When Janey got the chance to get out of the neighborhood, she took it and never came back. The only person she missed was Mateo.
Mateo thought he saw a pregnant Janey one day in a prison visiting room. Mateo realized he wanted to be a better person. Mateo decided to take the opportunity presented to him to join the other side. He secretly joined DAG and learned to become an agent for them. Mateo was determined to take down the gang from the inside out. And his plan was working until he showed up at the gang bunker and found Janey.
Janey had been kidnapped because Scott took something that belonged to the gang leader, Saw. Saw wanted the item back. Mateo had to change his plan to get the information he needed to truly be free of the gang while managing to keep Janey safe. Janey just had to play her part without falling for Mateo again. That part was not going to be easy.
Neither Janey nor Mateo want to admit their feelings for the other. After all the truths are revealed, Janey and Mateo find another again.
There are still questions to be answered. They came thiiiiiiiiiisssss close to revealing the mole. Janey and Mateo’s story is a perfect place to start if you aren’t already reading this series. And, you should be reading this series.

This book was fabulous. I enjoyed the humor, the steam, the banter, the friendship, the love, the relationship, there wasn’t much I didn’t love about this book. It is only getting 4 stars because the long-lost father coming in and saving the trio was too cheesy for me. It was wonderful for Petra to find him and him be everything she needed. It was just a little too much cheese for me.
Petra needs a new place to live. Callum needs a new place to live. Weston is tired of being alone and needs help paying the bills. Petra and Callum were the first people to answer Weston’s ad for a roommate. Weston really only needs one roommate, but who can resist the hunky Callum and the spunky Petra, especially with her pooch Gus.
As the friendship builds between the three roommates, the attraction also builds. The attraction gets brought to the forefront one day when Callum walks in on Petra and Weston kissing. Callum gets jealous. The three roommates have a discussion and discover that the attraction is mutual. The steam starts slow with cuddling on the couch watching movies to kissing and petting, then moves to more. So much more!!! It was beautiful. Each exploring and trying new things.
When each partner faces an obstacle, the others band together. Petra gets hit doubly hard. Weston and Callum are there supporting her with each trial.
Again, a beautiful story about finding family and love.

If I could give half or partial star ratings, I think for the first time I would. I truly enjoyed this story and this cast of characters that I hope to see in additional entries in this series. The operators were a real Tribe.
Kai Serrano is a movie director. She has directed several different genres and made many successful pictures. She is about to embark on a new movie. A military-suspense thriller. She needs a consultant to aid in making the picture more realistic and authentic. Kai had a consultant all lined-up until he was called out on a mission and would be in the field longer than expected. This consultant called in a favor.
Enter Waters. Waters is a nickname given to by his fellow operators. At this firm, everyone has a nickname and that is all they go by. Waters is struck by Kai the moment he walks into the room for the conversation about whether or not they would consult on her film. There is something about Kai that speaks to his soul but thanks to company rules, he is not allowed to have a relationship with Kai.
Over the next several months as Kai, now nicknamed Kubrick, and Waters work on the movie together, their bond grows and deepens. All of the operators slowly develop a respect and admiration for Kubrick. As secrets and truths are revealed about how Kai got into the situation she finds herself in, Waters realizes that he can’t walk away from her. Would Waters give up everything for Kubrick?
Shortly after filming has wrapped, Kai finds herself in a sticky situation and reaches out to Waters and the guys for assistance. Waters and his guys pull out all the stops to help Kai. Will it be good enough?
Looking forward to the next one in the series to find out what happened to Ka-Bar. Are God and Cherry an item? How did God end up faceless? I can’t wait until the series reveals its secrets. Jump into this romantic thriller series now!! Totally worth it.

Deja Brew had me laughing out loud. The characters are great. The family drama is real and so funny. Mango is just a delight. Cash was out to break hearts and take names.
Maisy has everything on the line. Her brother, her future, her dad’s approval all hinge on this one little thing that she is about to do. She just can’t bring herself to do it. All she has to do is walk down the aisle and say, “I do.” But, she can’t. Maisy doesn’t know how she will figure out any of the rest of the stuff but she does the one thing that she can. She runs. In her wedding dress and all. Maisy lands herself in the least expected place of all. Miller’s car.
Miller is getting out of the courthouse for something he has not told his family about when he is sitting in the car and she opens his doors, sits down, and tells him to take off. Miller doesn’t know who she is or what is going on, but he puts the pedal to the metal. Miller can’t hide his attraction to this beauty that just plopped herself into his life. While Miller is trying to figure out how to right a few wrongs from his past, he needs to figure out what is chasing this bride and how to protect her.
As Maisy fights to keep her brother, Miller is haunted by his past. As Miller and Maisy grow closer, their problems try to tear them apart. When Maisy has to make a choice of a lifetime, Miller is devastated. Miller finds a way to help Maisy and Cash. So cute!!
This is an amazing addition to this fabulous series. Love the characters. Love the family. Love the humor. Can’t wait for Lynn’s story!! If you haven’t already found a reason to jump into this series, this is it. Maisy, Miller and Cash will win you over in a heartbeat.

I read a bunch of werewolf stuff. This was a different take on shifters and the shifter-verse. I liked how the young wolves shifted early, around 3 years of age. I was not a fan that only males were shifters. It made the shifter-hound storyline with Thea so easy. Of course even when there are she-wolves, there are those that try to latch on to high ranking wolves. Not the point, the point is that I was not a fan that only men got to be special.
Okay. So our story…..Alexa was seduced then abused by a werewolf. She escaped him after she found out she was pregnant. Alexa didn’t tell anyone that she was leaving or about the baby, except her parents who helped her run. Alexa had the baby and gave him up for adoption, hoping this would keep him safe if the ex found her. Alexa went to school and became a lawyer. She moved to Montana with her best friend to continue her new life.
Miles was just another male shifter living the life of freedom and women when he met Alexa. They had an instant connection. He knew she was his mate. Everyone could sense their connection. The only problem was that Miles had to tell Alexa that he was a werewolf, not knowing her history. When Alexa discovered Miles’ secret she walked away from Miles and their connection. She would not do it again. Alexa started seeing a therapist to help her work through her issues. The therapist encouraged Alexa to tell Miles about her past.
As Alexa is finally able to disclose to Miles her history, the ex re-emerges from shadows and takes Alexa. The ex knows about the baby and he wants his son. He takes Alexa to go get his child, with Miles chasing them to rescue Alexa. Alexa is crafty and manages to keep her and the child safe and even manages to escape from her ex. Miles makes it so Alexa will never be haunted by her ex again.
This story has many good points and a few bad. But overall, the good wins out and the story is delightful and at times, very fun. Excellent read.

This box set is the beginning of the Tale of Bella!! Bella recently found out that her husband (Mr. Wimp) was cheating on her with an almost carbon copy of her. The chick’s name was even Bella. The one big difference is that new Bella was all about the money and what the ex could buy for her. When the money ran out, so did she. (You don’t actually find that out in Mr. Wimp, but we do in Mr. Kinky!)
These short, hilarious stories are told as about the men that Bella finds to date as she is reclaiming her life, herself, and her sexuality from the doldrums of her marriage and boring life with Mr. Wimpy.
Mr. Player tells us all about two guys actually. First we start with Liam. The rebound. Yep, he is just a tease. A guy that everyone knows is not Mr. Right just Mr. Right Now. Bella and Liam become friends. Then Bella takes a chance and enjoys a night with Liam. Knowing it is not forever or even long-term, Bella is okay about moving on when she joins a dating site and is matched with someone quickly. Liam is not super happy about ending the situationship early and even cautions that the new guy, Jack, is just a player.
Bella doesn’t heed the warning. That is exactly what Jack turns out to be and even worse, when he plays he is all about him and not about his date. Ugh. After that disaster, Bella decides to take a break and have a lovely weekend with the girls. While on the girls’ weekend, Bella is matched with a local hottie. They talk. Bella runs into Mr. Kinky at the bar that he owns when the ladies decide to head for a drink. The ladies relent and excuse Bella for a night to enjoy a date with Mr. Kinky. Mr. Kinky isn’t shy about sharing what he likes with Bella. He tells her straight out and gives her a chance to decide for herself about his kinks before pursuing anything further.
Bella does her research and takes a chance. New her and all. Despite a steamy night with Mr. Kinky, Bella realizes that she could not live the life full-time and has to walk away. Mr. Kinky understands but is disappointed. He leaves the door open for Bella, if she ever wants to spend the weekend tied up with him or changes her mind about a future together. When Bella returns home, she has a horrible run in with her ex, from which she is saved by Liam. Bella and Liam are really trying this whole friends after thing. We will see how it works.
Back on the dating site, Bella finds Ethan. Now Ethan starts off as a normal, nice guy. Not super kinky, no blatant sexual innuendos in his messaging, no moving too fast. Maybe someone if Bella was ready that she could settle down with. Bella was pretty sure she wasn’t ready. But maybe Ethan is just a little too nice? They start dating. No pressure for more. He slowly starts becoming possessive, hinting at something darker. After one date, Ethan is expecting more but Bella says no. Ethan doesn’t take the no well. Ethan calls her names and says she is lucky to have someone like him. Bella flips her lid and kicks him out.
Bella was not prepared for Ethan to be Mr. Heartless. Like the white knight he claims not to be, Liam comes swooping in to save Bella from Ethan. Their sitch picks up where it left off, friends with benefits?? Could this thing with Liam be more?? Out one night at the bar with the girls, Bella is confronted by Ethan. He did not like being turned down. He manages to get Bella alone in a dark corner of the bar and manhandles her. Luckily, one of Liam’s friends happens by and kicks Ethan’s butt and holds him until the cops arrive. Can’t wait for the next box set!!
These quick reads are funny but endearing. There are steam moments but it is about Bella reconnecting with who she was, who she is without Mr. Wimpy. I love Bella’s friends. They provide some humor and those oh so special girl moments with unsolicited advice that only your besties can give. I am so very ready for Mr. Rich!!!

This duet tells us the story of Alexis and Allie, best friends and roommates. When Alexis accidentally captures the attention of a trafficker, it puts both women in danger. The high paced action through both books keeps you reading.
Sheldon gets involved with Alexis when a near miss slap stops Sheldon in his tracks. Sheldon is attracted to Alexis immediately. Sheldon knows that the man harassing her in the coffee shop is not the kind of guy to mess around.
Sheldon finds a way to keep Alexis close, even varying her hired by the big boss for a hair styling gig. One night on the way home from her salon, Alexis had a car accident which results in a trip to the ER where Allie works. Nick was the first member of the team on the accident site and goes with Alexis to the ER where he meets Allie.
Allie is a tough as nails ER charge nurse that has been hurt before and isn’t into a relationship. Playboy Nick has met his match in Allie. Nick isn’t a relationship guy either but is willing to take a chance for Allie.
While Alexis and Allie are in the crosshairs of the trafficking organization, Sheldon and Nick stay close. Falling for their respective women was easy, getting the women to agree to anything is hard. Through it all, each couple builds their bonds.
I love the ending. It was the perfect way to close this duet. I can’t wait to see where these characters go. Be sure to read this series!!

Another crazy hot duet from this author. I am a sucker for a dark mafia romance. This gives me two for one. There are twists, so much drama, some steamy steam, and lots of brave men and women fighting the blight of human trafficking.
This story picks up where we left the last duet. The agency’s men are on a rescue mission to find and return Jenny’s niece, Bryanna. Damian feels an unusual pull to protect this green eyed beauty. He can’t fight it. Damian’s protector drives kick into high gear whenever he is near her. Bryanna is in serious danger but fights Damian at every turn, even running back to the people that took her.
Damian figures out part of the truth that keeps Bryanna running back. When he is able to tell her that he is protecting those most important to her, Bryanna stops running long enough to help Damian get the bad guys that took her from her family.
Bryanna was able to find one person during her ordeal that protected her and helped her, Layla. When Layla exchanges information to help Bryanna, she puts herself in peril. Dereck, Damian’s teammate, steps up to protect Layla from the trouble they caused her by using her to help Bryanna. Dereck learns fast that there is more to Layla than meets the eye.
Dereck and Layla can each feel the magnetic pull towards each other. Dereck thinks it is because he can feel Layla’s latent submissive side whenever they are together but it just makes Layla fight and pull against Dereck even more. Dereck continues to earn Layla’s trust by showing up whenever she puts herself into more and more dangerous situations trying to solve a mystery.
The teams come together to help figure out who is behind the trafficking ring and prevent new “shipments” from leaving. It is never as easy as they plan and face new difficulties even as they bring several key players in the rings down. Fantastic stories!!! I hope that there are truly people out there fighting the bad guys that ‘gather’ for traffickers and the sickos that are the reasons for them.
