Mood Swings and Hockey Flings (Hot Flash Hookups Series) by Sylvie Stewart and Marika Ray
Hosted by Itsy Bitsy Book Bits
Genre – Sports Romance
Page Count – 270
Cover Designer – Sylvie Stewart
In the cutthroat world of professional sports, I’m the agent who always calls the shots. Until a decade-old feud with hockey superstar Banks Bennet resurfaces, and I’m forced to play nice.
When his agent drops him and rumors of a trade swirl through the league faster than a puck on a breakaway, I find myself in the dreaded role of Banks’s new agent. There’s no doubt I can save his career from crashing into the boards, but only if we don’t strangle each other first.
All I need to do is whip this man-baby into shape and negotiate an epic contract that will establish me once and for all as the top hockey agent in the league. No problem, right? But between babysitting Banks, battling perimenopausal mood swings, and fighting this annoying attraction to my client, I’m facing a hat trick of challenges.
Not everything about Banks is what it seems. Under all that bravado and childish behavior lies a sensitive and considerate guy who values more than just his time on the ice–leaving me to wonder if maybe there’s more to life than just wins and losses.
If I’m not careful, my emotions might have me losing control and throwing away the professional playbook for a shot at happily ever after…and that’s not how this game is played.
Tropes:
forbidden romance (agent x player)
menopausal woman at the top of her profession
slow burn
forced proximity
pro hockey
hilarious alpha hero
he falls first
opposites attract

Touched: Elemental Passions Book One by Skye Turner, Sloane Nicole, April D. Berry, C.J. Pinard, Danielle Jamie, Darlene Tallman, Julie Morgan, Livell James, Machelle Hanleigh, and Melissa MacKinnon – Review by Bobbi Wagner

Touched (Elemental Passions #1)Touched by Skye Turner
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a great romance story written by ten great authors. Some are new to me and some are favorites. This is an engaging story that is hard to put down. A story where it takes fae and human, forbidden love and one where fate will step in and take over. I enjoyed the characters and how creative they are. Their journey had me wanting to know what would happen next. They are connectable, relatable and brought the story to life. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout which made the story easy to read. This is a fast paced story that has so much entertaining value. This is one you don’t want to miss. I really enjoyed this book and I look forward to the second one. I highly recommend this book.

For Sebastian, time stops when he’s with Barbara. It doesn’t matter that she’s rich, and he grew up on food stamps. That her clothes are designer and his hide old gang tattoos. Even that he’s white, and she’s Black. None of their differences matter until he’s handed the job meant for her.
Jobless and stripped of her family’s wealth, Barbara digs deep to find herself and her voice. Suspecting she faced racial discrimination, Barbara challenges her boss in court. It’s a decision that puts Barbara and Sebastian on opposite sides of a battle they long to fight together.

Sera Kain has a mission, one she can’t complete with a pilot. Using her background as a logistics and data controller, she’s found the one man that might be willing to help her find her missing uncle with a little incentive.

Markus Engle resigned from military life to escape the destruction left by human expansion through the universe. He wants only a life of leisure and enjoyment on the pleasure planet of Kafgar. When Sera walks through the door of his business everything changes because he can’t tell her no. Not when her scent activates the military DNA modifications that make denying her impossible.

It’s a simple rescue mission on the prison planet, Earth, with Sera guiding the way. Only the snatch-n-save turns into an ambush and the pair find themselves trapped without a ship and no way out. To escape alliances will need to be formed and bargains made with the worst Space Force has encountered. For Markus and Sera, their future is fated, but making it off Earth alive to enjoy it will be damn near impossible.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

Charming Chapter is the first book in the Boomer Babes Book Club series, and debut novel by Lori Haas. It is a sweet women’s fiction story about finding love again later in life. As this is my first read by Lori Haas, I really didn’t know what to expect from one of her stories- but the cover caught my attention, and the story promised something a little different to what I have been reading of late, so I took a chance, snapped up a copy, and set off to see what happens.
What I discovered is exactly what the title promised, a charming tale capturing a later-in-life romance (clean), friendship, finding love after loss, interesting older characters, sweet + heartwarming details, fun, challenges, and just enough drama to keep things interesting.
The characters were really well-developed individuals with their own unique personalities, quirks, and flaws- making the story quite realistic and entirely believable. It was great seeing that it’s never too late for love. And the friendships were a fun addition, adding extra interest to the overall storyline.
If you love women’s fiction, clean romances, and stories with charming mature characters finding love unexpectedly — then this is definitely the book for you…
Looking forward to Book #2, ‘Surprising Chapter’ (due to release in June 2024)…
Hapy Reading…

Thank you, Lori Haas!

This book hits just the right notes of romance and intrigue to keep you hooked. The characters feel like people you’d want to be friends with, making it super easy to dive deep into their stories. The setting is so well-drawn, you practically feel like you’re living in it. Sure, the plot might not surprise you every step of the way, but the witty banter and a few clever twists more than make up for it. Giving it a solid 4 stars because it’s the perfect pick-me-up read for a lazy weekend chill.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

OMG!! I really love paranormal romance and shifter romances are my favorite. I am so happy to find a new series and a new author to boot. I really was hooked by this book and I really cannot wait to get deeper into the series. I really could not put this book down and it has really brought my love for reverse harems out. I really love how the main female lead has hidden potential and that the story line was really a breath of fresh air and unique. The author does such a great job of bringing the characters to life and make the situation normal. Although nothing about it is normal it was quite easy to not only read but I thoroughly enjoyed. I am so looking forward to the next book and am on baited breath waiting. So it goes to say that I will definitely be reading more from this author in the future.

Laura is in her 60s just like myself. She belongs to a supportive book club that encourages her to do things for herself. She spent so much of herself for her children and husband. Now that her children are grown and her husband has passed away. It is time for her! Even though her daughter has a different point of view, Laura must follow her heart. London here she comes. This author knows just how to engross her readers. I love that she writes for her older readers. Her romance is spot on, just the right amount of relationship building. I am looking forward to seeing where this series goes.

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Book 3)Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First off, this is my first time reading this author. She is very talented. Her world-building is amazing. Her character development is amazing.
This is the 3rd book in a series. It can be read as a standalone, but I feel like I may have gleaned a bit more information about the characters, having read the previous 2 books.
With that being said, this book was still easy enough to read as a stand alone. I enjoyed the suspense, and the stolen glances between the seriousness. I could see this play out like a made for TV movie in my head… It was awesome. I can’t wait to read the previous 2 books. Highly recommend.

Charming Chapter is a wonderfully written romance, with big bonus points because it is a second chance later in life romance. As a 50-year-old woman it is very refreshing to read books in my own age range. The characters are all likable and easy to relate to and nicely developed. This book will take you on a journey with self-discovery, you may think about your own relationships, a bit of drama and love and even some laughs. It is a fun quick read, and I can’t wait for the next book. I highly recommend this book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shadowed Deception being book three in the Shadow Defense Security Series we get to read about more of the guys at this agency finding their one and only. The series continues to keep me on the edge of my seat. Shadowed deception had this series typical drama, action, angst, enemies that become lovers that is par for the course in these books. There is Drake and Finlay, an investigative journalist who is undercover, in very deep into a sex trafficking ring. The character development was very strong and I enjoyed how the novel unfolded. Another great addition to the series.

Charming Chapter : A Later-in-Life Just Kisses Romance (Boomer Babes Book Club Romances 1)Charming Chapter : A Later-in-Life Just Kisses Romance by Lori Haas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Charming Chapter is a charming Women’s fiction romance tale. It is a quick and easy read and an enchanting read. It’s great to see more authors getting on the older characters band wagon.
The characters feel real, and you become very invested in their story. The book club gang were fun, supportive and friends you want in your corner not like Caroline who came across as a bit selfish. There are a few ups and downs and a few surprises, but it is an enjoyable read.
My Mum died a couple of years ago and she and Dad always travelled around Australia but never any big overseas travelling. Two years ago, my dad at the ripe old age of 83 decided to do the Danube River cruise. So, when Laura decided she was going no matter what I admired her. I love travelling and learning about the history of places and ancestry.
You are never too old to do something. Learning life lessons helps us grow. Falling love later in life is good to see and this is what Laura did and I really enjoyed seeing this happen.
Give this book a go because I know you will love it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Refreshing and wonderful romance story. I love that this is more “seasoned” second chance at romance later in life that takes you on a journey to self discovery, love, fun and a little bit of drama. I am already looking forward to what this series has in store next!

After losing her husband, Laura sets out to discover there is more to life to live and learn about her ancestry. When Laura travels to UK she has a chance encounter with a handsome gentleman, Hugh, the sparks fly. While Hugh and Laura get to know better, and feelings become more clear that this could turn to love, secrets may be holding them back. Could Laura and Hugh discover they can overcome these bumps in the road and have their HEA that they long for.

This story is truly charming and I highly recommend this book.

Shadowed Agenda: An Enemies to Lovers Action-Packed Romantic Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Series Book 2)Shadowed Agenda: An Enemies to Lovers Action-Packed Romantic Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shadowed Agenda, book 2 in the Shadow Defense Security book series, was possibly even better than book number 1. Each book is a standalone as they concern different couples but are always better read in order as the characters do cross over. Shadowed Agenda follows Regan, an independent, strong willed woman, and Pavlo, a retired Navy Seal, grumpy, strong, alpha protector that are right up my alley. While they are forced to be together on a book tour for two incredibly different genres when they are together they can’t get along which quite possibly just happens to be a cover for how they really feel about each other. Shadowed Agenda was full of action, snark, romance, and drama.

Shadowed Obsession: An Action-Packed Romantic Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Series Book 1)Shadowed Obsession: An Action-Packed Romantic Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shadowed Obsession is the first action packed, gripping book in the Shadow Defense Security Series and what a story it was. I’m always drawn to books that involve a male main character that is in the Mafia or Military, is usually a little rough around the edges, dark, or has some quirk and this book had that. Add in a smart, successful, independent, strong woman and it’s the icing on the cake. Keira hires Cade and his security team when she realizes that a stalker that has been after is taking things a bit too far. Cade and Keira were relatable characters and their chemistry was off the charts throughout the novel. Then tension and danger throughout is pretty constant and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Lots of action. Interested to see what comes next.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series quickly became my favorite, and somehow the books just keep getting better! I devoured this book in a day because I couldn’t put it down, so definitely clear your schedule when you pick it up. I thoroughly enjoy the romantic suspense genre, but books tend to lean more on the romance side than suspense. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this one was more like a thriller with some steamy romance expertly mixed in. The chemistry between the characters popped off the pages, and I really enjoyed the flow of the story as well. I also feel like I’m pretty good at guessing the direction the story is heading but the author crafted so many flawless twists and turns that I couldn’t predict anything! I just finished this book and I already want to get lost in the next book. I can’t wait to see what this author has in store for us next, don’t pass this incredible book (and series) up!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What is not to love but a book full of steamy romances. I really really enjoyed this book. I have to admit that I was unable to put this book down. It was a case of start to finish I just didn’t want to stop. I really like how the author was able to combine a bunch of short very steamy romances. Each mini story just really ignited my imagination. The characters were all really brought to life and I felt as though I was right there in the midst of the drama as it unfolded. I cannot wait to read more from this author in future.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is one of the sweetest second-chance romances that I’ve read in a bit. It hits a little close to home because I’m the oldest in our relationship by a decade. I found Laura and Hugh’s relationship to be sweet and slow in building. Georgina is the one that I didn’t think was needed. I loved Celeste. She had me rolling in the aisles with her surprise trip. It’s an entertaining romance with the American/Brit interactions. It’s a fun read and I’ll be eagerly awaiting book 2.

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Book 3)Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Shadowed Defense Security series. Each book can be read as a standalone however I think after reading one you would want to read them all.
These books are great. Their is a gripping crime thriller aspect as well as a romance. The main make characters are always so protective which I love but what I also like is that the female lead character are strong and independent on their own. The characters compliment each other in every sense.
This is a story that is gripping right from the beginning and is so action packed that I couldn’t put it down. Their is danger around every corner and my heart was beating fast throughout not only because of the danger but because of the electric chemistry between our 2 main character.
Drake and Finlay have crossed paths before and when Drake is sent to fetch Finley home he knew the task wouldn’t be an easy one.
Finley is a journalist who is on the brink of breaking a huge story and bringing down a human trafficking ring, however she doesn’t realise just how dangerous the situation is that she finds yourself. While she is undercover she is also trying to locate her friends sister, however the people she is working for aren’t the sort of people you want to mess with or cross.
When Drake arrives to convince her to return, she refuses so now Drake and the team at Shadow Defense have to work alongside her to keep her safe and take down the human trafficking organisation for good.
However this isn’t as easy as it sounds and with the danger getting higher and higher around Finley, Drake gets more and more concerned that she is in over her head.
Will Finley be able to locate her friends sister? Will her cover be blown and her life placed in danger? And what will happen if Drake and Finley gives into their chemistry?
This was a great read that I couldn’t put down and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

I enjoyed this story. I enjoyed that it was a later in life romance as opposed to the ones about younger people. As a woman approaching 40, it was nice to read about relatable things when you’re in a cozier stage of life. I thought the characters in this book were well developed and the book club friends were fun. I would recommend this book and read others by this author!
