Book one in the Surviving Series

“Perhaps love is too strong of a word, maybe it’s only a feeling touching the edges of love,
momentarily blinding our perception of the profound emotion.” 
Having never fully healed from that fateful night so long ago. Dr. Theodore Grants simply exists, traveling into the deepest darkest places of his past. Living where life and love no longer breathed. Unprepared for the cure to come. He was a prominent, renowned psychiatrist. He had it all: wealth, prestige, respect. Or so he thought. When tragedy unexpectedly struck, he was forced to help his best friend’s daughter. What he didn’t know was that he needed her, like his own breath. He fought the desire leading him astray, but in the end, he wanted only one thing: Her. She found his demons and slayed them with her innocence, crept into his heart like a spark of light. Passion sizzles, and sparks fly when the beautiful wounded Eden appears, to hell with what was right. Losing everything never factored in. All he wanted was live in the moment. Her moment. Eden and Theo’s journey continues in book two where Alex and Madison take center stage. 

*Content warning: Taboo yes, but Eden’s charter is of consenting age, it contains adult content, language, and scenes that may not be suitable for all audiences. Intended for 18+ audience. *

#1 International Bestselling and Award-Winning Author (fiction and non-fiction) A Blooming Boomer who loves life on the road, making new friends and meeting great people. Life in the slow lane!

After a few full-on years of travelling, which included a year and a half checking out New Zealand, a few Pacific islands, Australia and South Africa, 15months driving around the USA in a motorhome, some quick few weeks visit to Canada, Mexico, Cuba and Spain, Allyson and her husband have now decided to pull over onto the hard shoulder for a while and have settled on the Valencian Province in Spain. Life is rich, according to Allyson, but the pocket is empty and she needed time to focus on her writing. It is very easy to get distracted when you see so many beautiful places.

The last twelve months have seen three new nonfiction books; all to help authors write, publish and promote their books, thirteen short sexy reads penned as Cyra May and three new Christmas stories all to be published in 2018

Of course being locked in a room and chained to a desk, did not help top up her sun tan, but at least Allyson was very productive.

Born to Fight (Can’t Resist You, #1) by Brittany Anne – Review by Emily Walsh

Born to Fight (Can't Resist You, #1)Born to Fight
ByBrittany Anne
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Born to Fight (Can’t Resist You, #1) by Brittany Anne was a raw, too real, feels gripping, post-apocalyptic read, that had me hooked from start to finish.

Wow what a read! My first read by this author and I am impressed, more than impressed I just found a treasure and I need more. This sci-fi dystopian read is unique, original and it is hooking. The tone, and writing rhythm has a oomph that instantly pulls you into the story. It’s been awhile since a dystopian has hooked me like this, and it has rekindled a lost love that I didn’t know was gone.

Told in multi POV we get this tale from both our MC’s, and seeing it that way, especially this type of romance, really adds na extra layer of realism, and gets you more connected to this characters. There is a weird magic about it, and frankly I believe that all romance no matter what genre should be told in dual POV. It’s proven in the way this story was executed.

Now outside of the love plot the world building was pretty freaking cool. It paints a devastating picture of what could happen if we lose our insta world connecting, electricity and satellites. It makes you feel the dread, and adds a very dark and gritty element, making the love plot that much more raw and compelling.

Overall this book is a must read, it has everything you’ve been wanting in a, or better yet it has everything you didn’t know you wanted in a post-apocalyptic romance, that may be doomed before it even starts. So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval that you will not be able to put this book down once you start.

Happy Reading

John Palmer hasn’t felt like a real man since he was injured during combat in Iraq. Though not content with his new life, he is mostly adapting, just like the other vets at the Lost ‘N’ Found Investigative Service. When Shannon Murphy is hired on as the new office manager, life suddenly gets a lot more interesting. Before long, John finds himself wondering if he could ever be the kind of man Shannon needs.

Shannon Murphy wasn’t really looking for love when she hired on at LNF, but finds herself hopelessly attracted to the sex-on-wheels former Marine, John Palmer. The man is grumpy and nearly impossible to work with, but his brand of masculinity appeals to her on a basic level. Soon Shannon is wondering just what it would take for John to want her the way she wants him.

When an old enemy tries to settle a vendetta against Shannon, John insists on protecting her. He moves into her house, fanning the spark of attraction into a blaze. But the danger continues to escalate. Will the connection that they’ve found survive when they’re thrust into a fight for their lives?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Imperfect Heart (Combat Hearts Book 4) by Tarina Deaton

5++++++++ Stars

I’m going to start right off with…Definitely one of my favorite books so far this year, actually maybe even further back than that. I’m not sure without looking how many of this authors books I have read but I know I have felt the same way after every one of them.

I honestly didn’t know if I was going to make it past 10% because I was laughing so hard at so many things and I couldn’t see through the tears. I really sincerely wish I could find the words to explain what it is I love so much about reading this authors books. It’s the way she words conversations between characters, the one liners, the snarky comebacks, they all just feel so real. I sincerely did not want the book to end, and even as I write this review I want to read it all over again, actually I want to make sure I have all of this series and read them all back to back.

I loved this storyline, Zoe is absolutely one of my all time favorite female leads, she was so strong, and determined yet still had the softness to her personality, and absolutely hilarious, I dont even know which part of her story had me laughing the hardest, and then she still had that side to her that melted my heart, and then in comes Tim….**heavy sigh** we all need a Tim, he was everything I want in my male leads

I’m not going to retell the story in this review, Im just going to tell you you have to read this book, actually read the whole series, the people from the previous books follow through the series and having all those stories are a definite must.

This authors talent for words has her in a class with the best of the best in my opinion.

Can not wait for more!! Loved it!

Credence Woods by Alexandria Sure – Review by Chantelle Smith

Credence WoodsCredence Woods by Alexandria Sure
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Credence Woods is a stand-alone novel from author Alexandria Sure. This is my first read from this author and I loved every bit of this book.
I was captivated and couldn’t put this read down. This author has created an amazing writing style and some brilliant characters that really influence the story and me while reading it.

This book really made its way into my heart, I loved going along with Kennedy’s journey of self-discovery and trying to overcoming her insecurities. I loved her personality, her passion – there was just something about her I felt connected with from the start and would love to have her as a friend. Max, ticked all the right boxes for me from the get-go! There was nothing I could fault about him except where could I find myself a version of him. These two connected in the most unique way – but then to be brought together again in what could have been an awful accident truly proved something was real between them. These two hit it off from the start and their connection was undeniable and was amazing to see both of the let there walls down especially Kennedy with the stories from her past and the reasons for some of their decisions.

My only issue with this read was one, I’m sure there was a time jump within the story but it wasn’t made clear – one minute it seemed like a current thing then something was mentioned about the three months spent together and it kind of jumped. I would have liked that smoother and more known to the reader. Also, the ending seemed choppy, compared to how the rest of the book was.
But with that being said none of these things put me off and I loved this book anyway! It was heartwarming, emotional, lovable and just a brilliant romance read!

This book also has some amazing secondary characters that help tell the main character’s story even more – can we point out how incredible Hank is! Who wouldn’t want a friend or assistant like that?

This is a read that should be read by all. You will love these characters from the minute you meet them and stick with them through their journey until the end! Do not miss this read!

Small Town Hero: Small Town Brides (Book 1) by Kim Koby – Review by Madison Degraffenreid

Small Town Hero (Small Town Brides, #1)Small Town Hero by Kim Koby
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Small Town Hero: Small Town Brides (Book 1) by Kim Koby

Small Town Hero by Kim Koby is a clean romance following Rebecca after she discovers her fiancé in bed with her best friend. She leaves and just drives until the point of exhaustion. After pulling off at a gas station to fill up and rest she wakes up 4 hours later to a car that refuses to start. After harassing her for loitering Ryan takes it upon himself to help her. After discovering that the nearest hotel is closed down for remodeling he offers to let her stay at his place in the guest room. Little does he know how much this small gesture would impact both of their lives.

I was amazed at how well Rebecca handled everything. If I were in her place I probably would have shut down and fallen into a world of despair. I loved how she was able to move past everything and even bring new joy into Ryan’s life. This beautiful novel was well written and clean. It focused mostly on n renewal but also shared how important the main characters faith was. I really enjoyed this novel and give it an easy 5-star rating.

The Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher – Review by Chantelle Smith

The Nearness of YouThe Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Nearness of You is a stand-alone read from author K.G. Fletcher. This is my fourth read from this author and she continues to never disappoint. She continues to astound me with her incredible characters and even better story lines. I was completely hooked and captivated with this read from the start and unable to put it down until I was finished. I can absolutely say this is by far the best book I have read by K.G Fletcher. But I still cannot wait to see what else she brings.

Both of these characters are relatable, lovable and totally perfect for each other. It was amazing to read their journey, following their ups and downs, and the obstacles that they face. But from the start, there was still something between these two that was undeniable totally perfect. Both of these characters had me swooning especially David, but come on once you read this read you will understand why.

With a few twists and turns that are thrown into the mix, this is the perfect read, amazing characters, brilliant storyline, it’s romantic, funny and an easy flowing read right from the start – it’s a book that should not be missed!

The Nearness of YouThe Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Nearness of You by KG Fletcher. This book is a standalone contemporary romance. As soon as I started this book, I knew I wasn’t going to be able to put it down until I was done. I got sucked into the story.

Lauren is just going about her normal routine when she runs into none other than David Randle. She is so nervous and got off guard. Then the unexpected happens. He invites her to breakfast and a wedding and they bond over their many similar interests. David can’t really explain it but he just wants Lauren around as much as possible. However, there is someone that doesn’t want Lauren around and will stop at nothing to make sure she’s not.

I really enjoyed this book. The author has such an attention to detail that makes you feel like you are living the story with the characters. David is such a gentleman and you could feel how much he cared for Lauren and her feelings. By the end of the book you could really tell what Lauren was made of and how strong and sure of herself she was. All in all, the book was such a great read!

Moments That Define Us by Amy McKinley A Gray Ghost Prequel

This 5-star novel is a prequel to the Gray Ghost series. It provides excellent background to several characters seen later in the novels. I felt that the character development in this novel was excellent and they all had a very emotional upbringing which could be a tear jerker for many. I know there was one main incident that had me almost in tears. I really enjoyed this novel though and look forward to reading more about these characters later.

Georgia Pine (Southern Promises #3) by K.G. Fletcher – Review by Emily Walsh

Georgia Pine (Southern Promises #3)Georgia Pine
ByK.G. Fletcher
My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

Georgia Pine (Southern Promises #3) by K.G. Fletcher was a sweet good feel read, that leaves you feeling all mushy on the inside.

My first read from this author and for this series, they read as standalones, so there was nothing to worry about in that area. This book followed a pretty standard plot, and you could see the ending a mile away, but I loved the added children and that, Tim wasn’t a overbearing, brewing, alpha male type.

First I want to give the author props for not using the whole amnesia thing, cause it’s like a weird cop-out, and frankly it’s been done so many times that I get nervous when a MC gets a head injury. I also like the way Tim’s character was developed, kind, strong and basically a decent human being. Despite Jessica’s a++hat ex, he wasn’t that overpowering jealous type, and didn’t get all piss when someone talk to her. I will say that, I wish he was just a blue-callered worker, I really do. Because him being not, and using it as a disguise, actually took away from the story. It was for me, a cop-out. I think the ending would have had a much greater and more powerful message, if Tim was simply just, a normal hardworking, decent humanbeing.

Overall I very much enjoyed this quick read. It was very well written, the detail was rich and made you feel that southern heat. It has a nice easy pace, there was drama but it was well place and belonged. There was no drama for the sake of drama. The love was a little insta-lovie, but it still felt natural, and of course the smut was…. hot… hot.. you’ll feel the heat and will need a fan.

The only thing left is to give you my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Happy Reading

Give and Take (The Thorne Brothers #2) by Lee Kilraine – Review by Chantelle Smith

Give and Take (The Thorne Brothers, #2)Give and Take by Lee Kilraine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Give & Take is Book 2 in The Thorne Brothers series from author Lee Kilraine. These books are a part of a series but each one can be read and thoroughly enjoyed as a stand-alone. This author doesn’t disappoint with her incredible storylines and captivating characters. I cannot wait to see what other great stories I can read from this author, and what else she will bring to this series.

This book was amazing. It had everything you needed to make this an amazing read that I was unable to put down and had me hooked from the first page. The two characters Wyatt & Rhia in this book were captivating to read and loved everything about them. They both are independent, determined characters that both have some issues impacting their future. You can’t help but root for them and hope they get a HEA.

Wyatt & Rhia have an undeniable connection from the get-go. Both of them have a way of getting into a deeper part of the other, Rhia had a way of getting under Wyatt’s skin, yet it impacted his life in a way neither of them knew, and Wyatt had a way of impacting Rhia’s life in a way she always hoped she would get from her family. They have a brilliant banter that you can’t help but have a continuous grin on your face. This book has made me smile, laugh and even let a few tears slip, but it made this book even more brilliant, captivating.

Rhia & Wyatt brought out the best in each other, and I loved seeing Wyatt’s walls break down and go from the quiet and brooding to quiet and brooding and excepting all the things that drive him mad about Rhia and actually having fun, relaxing and being himself. Rhia was the complete opposite to Wyatt in so many ways yet that made them the perfect match! To see the support and encouragement he gave her when others didn’t, really made Rhia understand and realise she should believe, and pursue what she really wanted.

I loved the secondary characters in this book and can’t wait to read how their stories unfold – picking one of the Thorne brothers to be my favourite would just be cruel, but I loved their relationship with Wyatt and even how they immediately welcome Rhia.

This is a brilliant read that should not be missed! I highly recommend this book – I cannot wait for book 3 in this series to see who’s story we get to follow and hope this isn’t the last we read of Wyatt’s & Rhia’s story.

The Sound of Love (The Sound series #1) by Maria Watts – Review by Emily Walsh

The Sound of Love (The Sound series #1)The Sound of Love
ByMaria Watts
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The Sound of Love (The Sound series #1) by Maria Watts was a okay read that shows a different side of the teen crushes, and the dreamy boy bands of the 90’s.

My first read by this author, I didn’t know what I was getting into. Though I read YA, it’s more fantasy, dystopian and paranormal. I don’t read much of the contemporary romance types. And this book again showed me why I don’t dwell much into that genera. Why? Well like others I have read, there is a bit of a unrealism to it, yes I know it’s fiction, but if you don’t have some semblance of realisisim for a story, that’s set in the real world, then it makes the story feel silly and unconnecting. And for me, parts of this tale were just that.

The first half of this book was great. Now I wasn’t sold of the whole “I was giving the wrong number, so I punched in some random ones, and low and behold, it worked!” So yeah that was, so far-fetched that it was cringe worthy, but, I put it aside cause Nina and Chris’s conversation were very interesting, fun and sweet. Nina called Christ out on his BS, and Christ was learning about what being a normal teen is like. It reminded me of the days, before internet, and social media. There was almost a cute innocents to it, that just warmed your heart.

Then, she met him, things weren’t as they were one the phone. I’m not going to say what, cause I don’t want to ruin the story. But there’s a personality shift, and frankly, it blindsided me. We spent so much time learning about someone, that who wasn’t not only who Nina thought, but me. But at the same time, I know why it was done, and I’m going to give the authors propbs, for leading both of us stray. Bravo.

And that’s where I’m going to leave this review. It’s one of those books where I have just as many likes as dislikes, and I don’t’ want to go down a rabbit hole. So let’s just end this with my overall impression.

As a whole, this book isn’t bad. It matches its target audiences, the writing is smooth, professionally well crafted and, has a very nice rhythm to it. I liked how even though I had problems with scenes, or plot points, the writing kept me well engaged and pulled into the story. I truly believe this is a good book to give your teen to read, especially if they’re currently obsessed with a band or singer. It will show them what goes on once the lights of the stage goes off and that mask of perfect is stripped away.

In ending, this books gets my recommendation and gets my approval

Happy Reading

Fisher of Men (The Eastern Shore Swingers #1) by Phoebe Alexander – Review by Chantelle Smith

Fisher of MenFisher of Men by Phoebe Alexander
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fisher of Men is Book 1 in The Eastern Shore Swingers Series From author Phoebe Alexander. This was a brilliant steamy read that had you captivated totally compelled to read until the very end. This is a totally unique romance read.

Even with these books being part of a series, they can all be read and enjoyed as stand-alone. This is my first type Swingers themed read, and the synopsis was really intriguing, so I took the chance and I’m so glad I took it. I was learning about the lifestyle along with the main character Leah Miller. There are great details within this read, that make it even more captivating and intriguing.
I loved Leah & Chris ‘Cap’ Sheldon from the start, they have chemistry from the get-go that continues to grow throughout the read, but can Leah stop the struggle she has with herself between her religion and sexuality and follow her heart with Cap and her desires? I loved reading Cap and Leah’s story I loved watching them evolve and Leah experiencing and learning new things all the while having a strong, alpha male taking her along on the journey.

Along with the main characters we have some brilliant secondary characters that really stand out and help make this story progress further, and I can’t wait to read some of their stories.

This is a brilliant start to what I think will be an incredible series, with brilliant characters, steamy passionate relationships and epic storylines. I can’t wait to read the next.

Give and Take (The Thorne Brothers, #2)Give and Take
ByLee Kilraine
My Rating: 4 of 5 stars

Give and Take (The Thorne Brothers #2) by Lee Kilraine was a okay read that has those good feels and some good chucking moments.

My first read by this author and for this series, they read as standalones so no worries about reading out of order. This was a fun, light heart read that had me sort of hooked. I’ll tell you why, it just felt like something I’ve read before that and, there was just something bothering be about our female MC.

I’ve read a lot of these types of books this year, and you start to see a pattern. And as much as the writing is witty and the feels are good, I just wasn’t fully sucked into the story. There was this far-fetchedness to it that just kept pulling me out. Our female MC Rhia, she was a good character, but at times I felt like she was, too much, just a little. I didn’t care much for the way her family acted, especially her older sister. Maybe because I come from such a supporting family, that I just don’t get how people that are suppose to love you just, are so disapproving and mean. I didn’t like the the way it was implied that Rhia wasn’t as smart as the rest of her family. I mean, starting a business, an event planning one, isn’t anything to laugh at. Rhia is just as smart as her overachieving sister/family. She just using her brain and intelligence in a different, more creative way, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

As for Wyatt, I liked him very much. He had this spark and really stood out. I don’t want to call him a alpha, because though he showed those cliché’s, he also didn’t. He is what kept me reading, I loved it when it was his turn to tell the story. I think if this whole story was told in his POV, it would have been just… bamd! Just my opinion. Or maybe even starting with him, instead of Rhia.

Overall this book is as I said, a fun, witty, light heart read that is packed full of good feels, frustrating moments and all that romantic drama we romance lovers crave. This books gets my high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Georgia Pine (Southern Promises #3)Georgia Pine by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have personally read the first two books in the Southern Promises books by KG Fletcher, but they are written in a way that you could read them as standalone novels. I would recommend that you read them all though, and feel as if you will feel the same once you finish this one, and fall for Tim and Jessica as I have. They are great little romance reads to escape into, you can’t really go wrong.

Like I stated above, in Georgia Pine we get the story of Jessica and Tim. These two are just too darn perfect. I absolutely was enamored with them by the time I had finished the last page, and frankly I want more! Jessica is fresh off a difficult divorce and left to fend on her own for her and her four daughters. Learning to be a single mother a single woman is no easy feat. In swoops the brooding and handsome gardener, Tim. Tim has his own demons that he is hiding under his full beard, and even his name. There is so much more to him that she could ever know. But at the root of it all they have a spark. It is ignited and they are spun together into a fast developing love. Of course, life eventually catches up to everyone though. What will happen when the secrets come out? Can Jessica still love Tim? Will they be able to put the past behind them for good? You will have to pick up this little gem to find out for yourself!

Jessie wants to protect the club and Sirena–but most of all, her heart.
Sirena thinks her heart is beyond repair.
There’s a reason hearts are kept in cages…

Jessie Martinez knew she wanted to be a cop from the time she was a little girl. With a strong sense of justice and an unwavering desire to help those around her, she never felt more fulfilled than she did in uniform. When the Sheldons asked her to keep an eye on one of their swing club members, she was more than happy to oblige. But she found it impossible to keep an eye on Sirena without her heart wanting in on the action…not to mention other parts of her body.

Sirena Horne used the local swing club, The Factory, as an escape. She knew Jessie meant well, but there was no way she was opening herself to any more heartache than she already carried. She’d have to be pretty desperate to reveal her secrets, but damn, Jessie did have a way about her. Sirena wasn’t sure how much longer she could keep her walls from tumbling down.

This is Book 3 of The Eastern Shore Swingers Series. All books are standalones. Readers 18+ due to graphic language and adult situations.

There’s a secret club in Ocean City, Maryland, where swingers from all over the mid-Atlantic converge every weekend to frolic and play in its many themed rooms. Welcome to the Factory, where in the midst of all the fun, there’s always a romance blossoming, sometimes where you least expect it. You know what they say: everything’s hotter at the beach!

Six Brothers Construction was built to reunite a family and heal a painful past. So far it’s opened to rave reviews. But the youngest sibling is about to discover that the right woman can shake even a rock-solid foundation . . .

Wyatt Thorne was so traumatized by his mother’s abandonment he didn’t speak until he was six. At 26, he’s still the quiet type—strong and silent, most comfortable with a hammer in his hand and work to do. But the reassuring rhythm of his life is interrupted when his brother Beckett decides to pay forward their unused office space to a needy start-up. Enter Rhia Hollis, flighty, impulsive, and outspoken—everything that drives Wyatt crazy. Only this time in the sexiest, most irresistible way . . .

Rhia is determined to disprove her reckless, party girl image by making her new company, Seize the Day, the premier event planning firm in Raleigh. She has big dreams, and the Thornes’ offer of a free command center is a huge help. But Wyatt’s gruff, stubborn resistance to her presence is an annoying hindrance. They’re as different as night and day, yet when they begin to meet in the middle, the sparks fly hot. Is this a case of opposites distract—or the beginning of a beautiful long-term project? . . .

Blind Magic (The Sanctuary Chronicles #2) by India Kells – Review by Liz Vrchota

Blind Magic (The Sanctuary Chronicles #2)Blind Magic by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Blind Magic is the second book in The Sanctuary Chronicles from India Kells. I have not had the pleasure of reading the first book, Broken Magic, although now I will be running to do so. It didn’t really affect my ability to enjoy this one though. Kells was a doll and gave us a pretty detailed prologue to catch us up for this one thankfully. This was just that amazing that I have to get my hands on the first as well. I normally don’t pick up books that fall into this ‘category’ but let’s be honest, look at that cover! Yummy, and eye catching. I had to know what was behind it. I am so glad I dived in blind.

In Blind Magic we get quite the story. I must say there was not a single moment that I was bored, and actually several hours that I was the do not approach the reading mom/wife or you may die type. Can you really describe a dark and twisty suspenseful book as beautiful and magical? I think this book qualifies for that, and really can’t come up with a better way to sum it up.

Sera Dover is one heck of a woman. Strong, independent and resourceful, oh and she is one heck of a witch. She will stop at nothing to protect those that she loves and cares about. She will face whatever danger comes her way too. Then there is Ian Macon, the damaged and gorgeous werewolf. He is instantly drawn to Sera. Her light and peace is something his shattered soul seeks out. These two have a connection that will set your kindle screens on fire, and give you a need for a tall glass of water, maybe even a fan or two, if you get my drift.

Of course, there is always danger lurking around the corner in all the great suspenseful novels. What is to come for them now and in the future? For that you must dive into this amazing five-star read for yourself, for I cannot bear to give away any more than I already have! Happy reading!

Summer Fling by Tarrah Anders – Review by Heather Bass

Summer FlingSummer Fling by Tarrah Anders
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and she blew me away. I absolutely love a good stand alone but this story exceeded all my expectations. You can’t help but to fall in love with all of these characters. I was hooked on the very first page. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible story.

Erin has always been a small town girl. She loves her job at her boutique. Erin has had really bad luck with the men she dates. She has sworn off summer flings for good due to the last man she loved. Erin is now excited about her work until she meets the handsome Royce. She has never felt like this before over a guy. Erin doesn’t want to get attached too fast but she can’t help it. She loves her new relationship with Royce but when she finds out their is an ex in the most she starts to put her walls up.

Royce is new to the town. He is starting up his own business with his best friend. Royce is used to the big city living so he has to get used to this small town. He is excited about his new life especially when he meets the beautiful Erin. Royce falls head over heels with Erin but when his ex comes back things get very interesting. Will Royce find what he is looking for in this small town or will he figure out he needs a big city?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, mystery, and forgiveness. You will fall in love with these characters right from the start. Erin is the perfect small town girl. She loves her life but she has walls up that are very hard to break. Royce is very handsome with a heart of gold. He is a very caring and understanding guy. These two characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This talented author will keep you at the edge of your seats until the end. I hope we get to know the other guys as well. I can’t wait to see what this author will write next.

Summer FlingSummer Fling by Tarrah Anders
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great way to finish off my summer reading list. Those dog days of summer had just really started to finish up and a day in the sun soaking up the sexy saga of Emma and Royce was perfect!

Everyone has one of those great romances gone terribly wrong that ruins it for the ones to come, and Emma is no different. Being hurt in the past has made her a bit jaded and she is not going to let it happen again. So when the summer season is about to hit full swing in her idyllic town of Sweeny she reaffirms her pact with herself to avoid the new catches rolling into town.

Royce is a bit different though. He has come with the intentions of settling down roots. When he meets Emma he instantly feels a connection for with her beyond a friendly level. A drunken one night stand gives him hope. For Emma though, her walls are just as high as they were the day they met. Royce is just as stubborn though…

These two were so much fun to read about. I loved the supporting characters just as much, and can see where we could even get plenty of spin off novellas in the future. Another great escape and sexy read from Tarrah Anders, and one that is gorgeous at that. This must grace my bookshelves at home as soon as possible. Happy reading!
