This book is my favourite of the series so far. I knew, just from the description, that I was going to enjoy this book but I didn’t expect it to be one I couldn’t put down. I read this book in one sitting because I could not get enough of the characters. They were so real. Their journey isn’t something you just read about, it is something you experience with them. The story itself fit the characters perfectly. It was well thought out and perfectly executed. I could have kept reading for much longer than the book goes on for. I am excited and sad for the next book as it means more of this fantastic series but it is also the last. In the meantime I will just re-read this book again.

This is an intriguing story right from the start. There is a lot going on and it felt as though the story could go any way at any time. I was hooked on the story and just had to know how it would develop. The author captured Dominic’s emotions so well. You could it across each page as he experienced everything he goes through. For me, this added a depth to the book that otherwise could have been missing. This author never fails to capture my attention with her writing style. Each book she releases is different from the previous ones and yet has her familiar feel to it. I have enjoyed every book I have read and this one is no exception. I thought this was a great story and I would definitely recommend it.

This is a really good second-chance mafia romance. I really enjoyed the plot line and the way May advanced her story. Nothing ever felt rushed but I never felt there was anything missing either. I loved the character development of Luke (Lu) and Nikolai. We get their backstory and how they were once a couple, but Lu ran after Nikolai expressed his feelings for her. Lu thoughts she’d left Nikolai behind, but he had been keeping a close eye on her all this time and she wasn’t as over him as she thought she was. If you are looking for a dark, steamy romance then look no further; this is the book for you. It’s a quick read, I didn’t want to put it down!

This was written by a new writer to me, so I was not sure what to expect. A friend recommended it after she read it and I am so glad that she mentioned it to me. It was highly enjoyable and not at all what I expected. In other words, it is not my typical fairy tale romance as it involved an arranged marriage of characters from two different worlds. The heroine is such a strong-willed character that you cannot help but love her. She is prepared to do whatever it takes and will stop at nothing to save her people even if it means marrying someone she does not love. Of course, throughout the story and all the incidents that occur it is no surprise at how the story ends. It was an extremely fast paced read for me and I would highly recommend it if you are into young adult romances.

Throwing The Curve Playing for Keeps Series By Lauren Fraser
I Loved this book!! After Reading Everything to Me, the 1st book in this series and Loving it, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Book 2, Throwing The Curve and it did not disappoint!! However this book can be read on it’s own but I suggest reading both! I’m not one to give out to much info in a review because When I start reading a book I don’t want spoilers. If you read the 1st one and loved it, you’ll love this one too, if you didn’t read the first one it’s ok read this then go back to the other! This book focuses on Ryan ( Kendall’s brother and Pete’s best friend) and a woman named Peyton who I really liked! Lauren Fraser is officially on my list of Authors to read more of. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really enjoyed this romance. Its a story full of twists and turns which keeps me hooked. The author does an amazing job with the characters and really brings them to life. I love how Luke is really independent and wants to do things her own way. And i love how fierce and protective Nikolai is.
Luke and Nikolai have had an intimate past. But when a Luke calls it off Nikolai isn’t ready to let her go so easily. Luke moves forward living her life the way she chooses with no thought for anyone. Meanwhile Nikolai keeps an eye on her from a distance.
When Luke witnessed an event that puts her in danger Nikolai is right there to protect her and keep her safe, but Luke isn’t going to give up without a fight. She’s not so sure she wants to be back with a man like Nikolai even if it keeps her safe
This story is a dark Mafia Romance. There’s is chemistry and lots of push and pull as both out characters fight for what they want. Will it be each other?

This book was ok for me. I’m not really into dark mafia so I had a had time engaging in the plot. I did like the chemistry between Luke and Nikolai. The Russian also made it a little hard for me to stay engaged too. I did like the different POV of the story.

When she witnesses something that she stumbled onto she has to call Nikolai to help her out of the situation. Nikolai doesn’t realize that Luke is also running from someone in her past and has more than one target on her back. Will Nikolai be able to save her? Read this dark mafia romance to find out.

This book is hitting me in all the areas that I need from a great mafia book. The main character is a very strong willed and determined female. I love the fact that her name is Luke. She is wanting to be in control of her own life and doesn’t want to feel like she needs to answer to anyone for what she wants in life. Her only downfall (as she sees it) is who she loves. He is dark and mysterious and everything that she feels she doesn’t need in life. It is one of those instances when you know what you want but feel that it isn’t good for you. This causes some tension with the main characters. It is a constant back and forth with them. Each page will have you wondering if they can overcome the issues that are in front of them? Will they be able to see how good they can be together? Will his position really strangle the freedom that she is craving? Those were the things that I constantly asked myself the whole time reading this book and what kept me turning the pages. It is a very steamy dark romance and I ate it up. It has everything from danger to angry love. This book won’t disappoint if you are a regular mafia romance reader. If you haven’t read that genre before be prepared for a steamy bumpy ride. It will be well worth it.

This book is book four of the series but each book in the series is a complete standalone. This is the first book I’ve read of the series and while I didn’t feel lost at all, I’m definitely going back to read the rest because it was just too good not to.
This book sucked me in right from the beginning. I’m a sucker for the best friend’s brother trope. Soleil has loved Tripp for as long as she can remember. What she doesn’t know is how Tripp has felt about her. Soleil’s background is complicated and that’s why she needs the help of Red Cage. She needs to find out what secrets are hiding. I’m not going to give anything away but wow! Red a cage figures out what’s hiding and that’s all I’ll say about that. There is a lot of intrigue and mystery and I couldn’t put this book down!
Soleil and Tripp are great characters. There is so much chemistry between them it was jumping off the pages! Can’t forget best friend/sister Tillie. All the characters were well written making this a definite book to read!

I wasn’t sure who I was rooting for most of the book. This second chance romance, had me in many emotions as Mavis navigates her way through feelings of twin brothers.
These characters were so relatable.
I highly recommend this book! I’ll be reading the next book in the trilogy soon!

Peyton thought she had met the guy she could possible settle down with but when she is invited to his friends barbeque and realises he has a wife her whole world comes crashing down. So when Steve pushes her off to his team-mate Ryan when Steve’s wife makes an appearance Peyton is a little annoyed.
Totally embarrassed Peyton makes he way out of the party but once away from the humiliation she discovers Ryan is one of the player due to be in her mentorship program so biting the bullet she approaches him and is met with a proposition. To be Ryan’s fake girlfriend?
Ryan is the loner not really a party man but can’t get over the blant way some of his team mates cheat on their wives, when one particular player becomes unstuck with the lie he drags in Ryan to save face from his wife and becomes utterly annoyed with the situation. But Ryan can’t let this woman go, the fire and sass this woman has makes for an interesting game and the sexual chemistry is off the charts with them. So he decides to offer her a solution, a kind of Friends with Benefits situation with a few fake dates thrown in.
We all know what will happen with that, it never runs as smoothly and this relationship gets interesting the more they argue with each other they are not attracted to each other.
I loved this book, the Enemies to Friends genre is one I am becoming very fond of, these two characters are both fiery and strong willed, both not willing to admit their feelings are growing between them which makes for an interesting story. The story is well written and flows along brilliantly with each turn of the page. Peyton’s character although a bit naïve at the beginning grows with you as you read her past and understand why she is so guarded. I loved the character of Ryan, the cocky ball player who has a mushy heart underneath although not original was heart warming and brilliant.
I loved the additional characters in the form of Ryan’s sister Kendall and how she helps Peyton with her insecurities when it comes to Ryan, overall the story was lovely and would love to read more from this series and hopefully see Steve get what he deserves.

4.5/5 Stars This was my first read in this series and I really enjoyed it! This book was written so well and the world building was great. It’s not hard to read even though it’s apart of a series. The storyline is soooo good. It sucks you right in and makes you want to read the entire series.

When I say this book is good! From the first chapter I loved it. At times I had to go get a drink of water. She writes it in the way we go back and forth between two POV’s. I love that I can genuinely get to know both of them because of this. The connection between the two characters is just electrifying. A mix of hate, love, and lust with two very strong willed people is something to look forward to turning every page.
Hit on You really does a good job at keeping me on the edge of my seat because it really kept me kinda guessing what was gonna happen next. Was I going to hot and bothered, scared, angry, or left wondering why? The characters are greatly described to the point I really could sit, see, and feel every emotion, every word, and every touch. This is a great piece of work and I would love to see what more great books Ms. May will write.

The Man In Black is the debut novel by L.R. Liverpool. It is a bit of a gritty thriller with drama, action, adventure, emotion, MM romance, mystery, history, suspense and more. It had a bit of a documentary/memoir-esque feel to it which gave it an extra element of interest, for me. We follow as Fenimore (Simon) leaves home to become a famous outlaw. His adventures begin and the story takes off. Along the way there is plenty of action, while Fenimore also explores his feeling for one of the members of the outlaw gang. Romance brings its own complications to the situation. But where does the Man In Black fit into it all? You really should read all the intriguing details for yourself to find out about The Man In Black. Curious to see what L.R. Liverpool does next. Happy Reading…

Dominic was in love with Juliana. When she disappears, he finds himself behind bars and charged with her murder. When he is released. he knows he must get away from Las Vegas and the man determined to make him pay for a crime he didn’t commit.
Whitney has a gift that she isn’t quite sure how to control just yet. When she begins hearing the voice of an insistent woman in her head, she just wants her to go away. But the voice wants Whitney to help a man find closure and provide the answers he has been looking for.
What follows is a story of love, heart break, murder, betrayal, and truths that will change everyone’s lives. Dominic and Whitney are determined to figure out what happened to Juliana, but feelings get muddled along the way. Can they ever be more than people who worked together to solve a crime? Or is their connection fragile due secrets they don’t even know about?
This was an interesting book that I enjoyed reading. I figured out the secret pretty early on…but didn’t know how it would come out. The story has a paranormal element that I found entertaining. Dominics anger was felt coming off of the pages…as was Whitneys determination to prove she was who she said she was! The back and forth was entertaining while the “bedroom” scenes were H-O-T! Overall, a good book.

I enjoy Mafia romances! This was my first taste of Russian Mafia romance. Hit on You was good. I enjoyed it enough that I didn’t want to put it down. I’ve read this author before and she did not disappoint with this one. This author is creative and thorough so you know everything that’s going on. Not one to confuse because info is overlooked. She sucks the reader in. gets you invested in her characters. Which is what makes her good at her craft. Luke and Nikolai are two people from different walks of life who happen to cross paths. However that path now has them forever connected, even if Luke isn’t aware. She runs away from Nikolai a year earlier when he uses the “L” word. Little did she know he knew where she was and kept tabs on her ever since. And when she becomes a witness to an unexpected incident gives him the opportunity to swoop back in. Nikolai is a made man in his Seattle family. Doing everything his uncle asks of him, while his cousin does what he wants. But despite all that his wants for the one who got away never cease. It’s when protection is needed, does he jump on the opportunity to come back into her life. Protection that he may need to give against someone of his very own. He just doesn’t know who. Who would be that careless? And is it connected to his sister’s death? Those are the questions he needs to answer. Love, lust, anger, stubbornness, happiness, sadness, devastation this book has it all. I wanted to read more about these characters, I didn’t want it to end.

I was surprised by how much happened in this book. Life in New Orleans would be interesting enough, but then Selma heads to Africa to help out with medical care and there isn’t a dull moment for her. Definitely kept my nose in the book to find out what happens.
Hunter and Selma have known each other for a long time. Started as co-workers and that grew to a very close and deep friendship and somewhere along the way it shifted again.
I really liked being able to relate age wise to both Hunter and Selma. Life is so different when you’re close to 50 than what it was at 25 and I’m sure falling in love with someone is even more different.
I think this is going to be a great series to keep up with and I’m looking forward to see what happens next.

This book pulled me in right from the get go and I couldn’t put it down even once. Luke is a character I think a lot of people can relate with and she definitely is a character people will remember. Nikolai is a wonderful match for Luke and they definitely have a chemistry that leaps off the pages. There’s romance, suspense and much more to love about this story. I found myself trying to read slower just to make it last longer but unfortunately I was too excited to read the next page. It’s well written and has great characters. Five stars all the way and highly recommended.

ST and Sheri spend most of this book apart, and complete strangers as a matter of fact. But a dropped book leads to their time together being very explosive.
The story begins with StoryTeller as a club Prospect, almost a year in. He weaves a beautiful tale out of a much less pretty scenario and thus, you are introduced to the reason for his club name. After a very upsetting situation, he takes to the road as a nomad. He sees himself perfect for the position and has no ties except to his club – just the way he likes it.
Sheri considers herself a boring, unattractive, wallflower that no one ever has interest in. To be fair, a less than desirable home life holds a very large part of her self deprecating view, but she has learned to survive by staying quiet and uninvolved. She takes a leap to do something fun for herself, and ends up in a terrible situation.
The two of them are drawn together by a book, and while it may seem a bit farfetched, it was a lot of fun to watch the author weave the tale that brings ST and Sheri together. Many moments are loaded with emotion and strain. However, ST and Sheri seem to read each other and their situation well and mesh, becoming heroes when neither considered themselves as one. Fate seems to keep pulling the two of them together. Will they follow, or run away?

The author did a great job creating interesting characters and weaving their story together in a way that was funny and unpredictable. I enjoyed how it spoke to the reader at some points. I loved how the characters were relatable and quirky; it was nice to see them not get hung up on their differences, but to recognize how that gave them added strengths.

Rowan has a lot on his plate: security firm by day (truly a cover) but under it all a Warrior fighting against a curse that was placed against his family by the Morrigan. If Rowan can’t find his Talisman (also known as a protector) by his 28th birthday he’s left either becoming a slave to the Morrigan or a rogue warrior fighting for his life… and his 28th birthday is quickly approaching. Alyssa is an overwhelmed graduate student trying to get through her dissertation on Celtic history. She’s recently had multiple losses including her fiancée just walking out on her and she’s at her wits end, only to come across footprints around her house suggesting she has a intended burgler or stalker. Knowing she needs a security firm she reaches out to Rowans firm but gets so much more than she bargains for… it turns out these two are the answers to one another’s needs and they didn’t even know it. Rowan discovers secrets hidden from Alyssa and he also discovers who Alyssa is to him. Can Alyssa take on the role necessary to help break the curse of the Morrigan?
This story is full of adult themes and is spicy 50 shades meets Paranormal themes. There is a ton of dialog in some sections but if you can be patient it absolutely enriches the story but can go on in excess at times. This series will be intense and I’m intrigued for more.

Luke Williams is a force to be reckoned with. She knows what she wants and doesn’t let anyone or anything get in her way. When she witnesses something she shouldn’t have, she needs protection, and in walks a man she walked away from a year prior.

This was a fun romantic sports story. Peyton and Ryan end up fake dating and unfortunately their first impression of each other is not a good one. Even though these two didn’t start off well there is no denying the chemistry between them. The more time they have to spend together they realize their first impressions aren’t who they really are. Will they end up dating for real? This was an enjoyable read with great characters.

Loved this story. You do have to ready the first book in the series to fully understand and enjoy this story. Once I picked it up I couldn’t put it down. The author did a great job with both character building and moving the plot along. Highly recommend

Dominic was a kid from the wrong side of the tracks but when he fell for Juliana Rutherford all his stars aligned and thought he had found the person who loved him for him but one night, one fight and he lost her forever.
Whitney is a marketing executive with a gift, but when you have someone continually chatting in your head she feels like she needs to answer the burning question, Who is Juliana Rutherford and why do I need to find Dominic Price?
After losing Juliana and being accused of her murder Dominic is out for revenge but when a woman walks into his life which looks like his past, can he really put the past behind him.
This is not the first book I have read by this author and won’t be the last, I loved the premise of the book and the twists and turns in the book were brilliant. At first I really could not relate to Dominic’s character as he was so angry and with the first encounters where cruel to the extreme but as there relationship develops through the story you understand the reasons and the heart and compassion that is within him.
This was a well written story with a brilliant storyline which is hard not to put down. I can’t wait to read more.

I am so glad for being warned as without it I would’ve been so confused. Though even with it it didn’t give anything away. The surprises were non stop throughout the book. Dominic and Juliana’s love story starts out slow and rises to a higher level. The writing was very arousing in all the right parts. This plot was a lot different than my normal reads, I would definitely read again and even look into other books.

What can I say about this book other than I absolutely loved it! I couldn’t put it down at all, I enjoyed it from beginning to end, I can’t think of a single thing I disliked even in the slightest.
The writing itself flowed extremely well making it easy to read and the beautifully descriptive language made the world feel so real to me allowing me to fall into the pages as if I were there myself. The historical aspects included, for example the politics of Wales at the time and marital ages, were included wonderfully and worked into the story amazingly well. This is something I often find can hinder the story, but this cannot be further from the truth here. I honestly cannot rave about this book enough!
The characters were perfect! They each had their own personalities, and I absolutely loved the main character, Rhia. I felt the way she was portrayed, her thoughts, emotions and actions really reflected how a 16-year-old may respond in her situation. She felt so real to me, and her growth was great to see the way it occurred. Rhia was amusing and sarcastic and I could not get enough of her.
The plot was well thought out, flowed perfectly and was not rushed in any way. I was gripped throughout and did not lose interest at any point. This is a book I would definitely recommend, and an author I will be keeping an eye out for in future.

Luke and Nikolai were a couple until one Night Luke tan and never looked back. She is such a strong character and I loved that about this book. Nikolai however, knew where alike was all along but was giving her the space she needed. One night when Luke is leaving work she ends up hearing / seeing something tragic and she freezes. Now someone is out to get her but, who could it be? Nikolai makes his presence known to her and vows to protect her at all costs. His mafia connections and alpha tendencies help him almost always get what he wants. He wants Lu and doesn’t plan to Let her go after the truth is revealed. Will Nikolai be able to keep Lu safe? Will Lu take Nikolai back after running from him and never looking back? This was a fairly good read by an amazing author!
