My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Omg!! This was the first book I have read by this author and let me tell you if you are looking for a steamy series this is the one for you!! I could not put the book down. This is the second book in the series but you can read it as a stand-alone. With that being said I am going back to read the first book to the series.
Callie and Grant haven’t had the best childhood but when it came right down to it Grant stepped up to take plate to take care of his little sister Callie. When the opportunity came for Grant to open his own PI business with a silent partner funding the company.
Callie and her friends decide to have a little fun at the local adult club Callie had no idea she would end up seeing the man who has occupied her dreams for the last six years. When Noah locks eyes with Callie he can’t take his eyes off her. He knows he should turn away from his best friend’s little sister but he can’t help it! He finds it very hot that she is enjoying herself while watching him enjoy himself. But could this mean she has the hots for him?
When Callie gets attacked on campus and Grant finally is getting to take his honeymoon, can he trust his best friend Noah to keep her safe while resisting the temptation that has been growing between them for six years?
I can not rave about this book enough!! It was absolutely phenomenal.

Hard Lover: A New Adult Romantic Suspense (Houston After Dark Book #2) by Deborah Garland

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Hard Lover had me hooked from the beginning and it was fantastic. I loved every minute of it and couldn’t put it down. This is the second book in the Houston After Dark Series.

Callie is a college student who decides to go out one night with her friends. What she doesn’t expect is to see her brother’s best friend there. Then she is attacked and is now being protected by Noah. What will happen between the two of them? The quote I chose for Callie is: “Have either of you heard of a place called The Stable?”

Noah has always liked Callie and hates that she is attacked. Claiming to be her husband so he can see her and now taking her to his family’s cabin to protect her. Things are getting too dangerous for him to continue on with her, but he’s not going to let her go. The quote I chose for Noah is: “I’m not asking as an investigator. I’m asking as… As me, Callie.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Suspense lovers.

Hard Lover (Houston After Dark Book 2) by Deborah Garland

Hard Lover is the second book in the Houston After Dark Series and man what wonderfully written Romance Suspense. This authors style of writing and attention to detail along with fully developed characters that are relatable and fun make a epic Romance. There’s a few twists and turns that had me turning the pages trying to figure out what was going to happen next. This is a fast paced story and once you start reading there’s no stopping until you finish. This is Noah and Callie’s story. These two have great chemistry there’s definitely mutual attraction. Sometimes our pasts try to crash our present life and we have to face things we don’t want to head on. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Well hello ladies get yourself a tall glass of crushed ice because you’re going to need it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This one took me by surprise because what I thought was going to be hot and dirty , which it was , turned out to have so much more to the story and while I can’t really be blamed to only expect hot and dirty ( I mean hello that first visit to the club had me fanning myself and looking around to make sure nobody could “ see” what the school librarian is reading😂🥰🔥)

Grant and Callie are siblings and Noah is friend and colleague to Grant so he’s not new to Callie in fact she’s had a crush on him for the last 6 years and while Noah wants to he won’t go there as she’s his friend little sister and he’ll have Noah’s guts for garters …..

Callie wants to taste that forbidden fruit and I’ve warned that first visit to the the club is off the charts ….🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Noah’s past comes to haunt him and this is what brings thrills , chills and nail biting suspense to my hot and dirty and it just hits the spot and ticks all the boxes ! This is definitely one to shout from glass tops ❣️🔥😉

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hard Lover is a spicy romance I couldn’t put down! A best friend’s little sister romance. A forbidden fruit romance. The author wrote a story about Noah and Callie Rose that has so many roller coasters you don’t want to get off one to get on the next. The dynamic and chemistry between the two characters is off the charts.
So what’s the problem?
What’s keeping them at arm’s length?
Someone’s out for revenge and unfortunately for Noah that person is closer than he realizes. He wants Callie Rose with every fiber of his being, but he’s holding back. And for good reason. He’s willing to take the blow back that would result from his best friend, Callie’s old brother, finding out unfortunately that’s not the real reason he’s holding back. It’s to protect her. If he gives in now he puts her in danger. But have their slips already done that?
Callie Rose has been crushing on Noah for a long time. Showing up at the sex club he works at intentionally. She wanted him to know. She wanted to prove a point. It worked but to what extent. Noah is still holding back and keeping her at a distance and she doesn’t understand why.
Will he tell her?
Does she find out before it’s too late?
Join me in line and we can ride on one of these many roller coasters together. I know I love the thrill, but do you?

This story certainly had me going with all of it’s steamy scenes and storyline. I am very particular with my smut, but this was absolutely a fantastic read to get my hands on! It certainly was a rollercoaster ride for between all of the things that were going on. The only thing that made me sad, was Noah thinking he was “wrong” for involving himself in the kink community. This had so much potential to do good, but it fell a little flat, but other than that the writing, storyline, curveballs, the set up were all done beautifully! I loved reading this book and I’m certainly going to go back and read book one!

Hard Lover: A New Adult Romantic Suspense (Houston After Dark Book 2)

I have had the pleasure of reading this author before and I’m unsure how I missed the first book in the series but so glad I was able get the chance to read this one.

Callie had a tough childhood, thankful she was too young to remember most of it.  She has a pretty good life thanks to her brother Grant.

Noah is Grant’s best friend and co-worker. Had a pretty good life except for one incident in college which changed his life.

Noah and Callie are so hot together. The sparks between them from when they see each other a club up until the end don’t let up though the do evolve during that time.  I thought the time away from everyone was the best of those moments.

This book was not ideal for my sleepless nights. I read the first third of the book in one evening because I was unable to put it down.  Now that this series is on my radar I will be keeping my eye out for the next book.

Really enjoyed this story. It was hot hot hot and fun to read. This story is about Noah and Callie and was easy enough to read as a stand-alone, however, clearly there is a story before this one as there are slight references to Grant and Avery’s history. Definitely want to read more about these characters and their friends.

Callie seems innocent but she is more reserved. She doesn’t fly her freak flag for all to see. Noah on the other had works at a sex club. He is worried about his freakiness and his past. And there is the little fact that Callie is Noah’s best friend’s little sister. Noah doesn’t think they would be good together, he doesn’t even think about Callie that way…much, until the night at the club proves otherwise.

Lots of angst and lots of ways to relieve the stresses of life in this story! Not a story to read at work and not for those young innocent readers. Looking forward to the rest in this series!

This is the awesome second book in the Houston After Dark series. Although part of a series, it can be read as a standalone. I was not aware that this was the second book in a series when I read it and I certainly didn’t feel that I was missing any necessary information needed to enjoy this book. And I have to say that I really did enjoy this book.
This book follows one of my favourite tropes, that of ‘brother’s best friend’. I love the angst that happens in these books and this book certainly follows that as Noah and Callie keep their relationship secret from Callie’s brother Grant.
This book is HOT with capital H, O and T. Noah is a Dominant with barbell piercings in a very intimate place which add to the sexiness of the sex scenes.
I really enjoyed reading Callie and Noah’s story. Callie is totally badass and takes no prisoners and is not afraid to fight for what she wants, And what she wants is Noah.
This is a great read, which I definitely recommend.

Callie and Noah are amazing! Callie’s the girl who has had it rough, but she doesn’t ever let it hold her back. Noah is the one with a secret and when they finally give into their desires, their lives change forever. Callie is everything sweet and kind, and Noah is the rough and tough military vet that is almost never without his cowboy hat. I absolutely love them both, and I can’t wait to read the other books in the series!

I love a good forbidden romance, and Deborah Garland brought it with this book. This story is a brother’s best friend-love story Noah is best friends and a coworker of Callie Rose’s big brother Grant. Firmly sticking Callie into the off-limits zone for him, to the point that he never once thought of her more than the girl he watched grow up. But one night that all changes. This book captured my attention almost immediately. The chemistry between Noah and Callie was hot enough to set the pages on fire. I think this book is worth a read.

To put it simply this is a hot steamy read filled with great characters and a storyline that will keep you captivated from start to finish. The authors wonderful writing style creates very vivid images in your mind as you read, making you feel a little like the voyeurs she writes about. I found this author and this series in book 2 and having enjoyed it so much I will definitely go and find book one. It should be said that not having read the first book in no way affected my enjoyment of this book, it has simply made me want to read more by this very talented author. I am really looking forward to what is next in this series as well.

This book is the second in the series but the first one that I have read. It is definitely a book you can read at any time. This book has it all, suspense, intrigue, forbidden lovers, friends younger sister, and a crazy person. All these things lead to an amazing book. The suspense keeps you on the edge of your seat and turning pages as quickly as you can. The steamy scenes in-between will make you blush and then blush even more because it is written so well you actually feel ,like you are witnessing these events. There were times where I actually diverted my eyes due to what was happening on the pages.
Will the main characters be able to end up together or will someone make sure that doesn’t happen? That is what I was constantly asking myself while reading this book. The past has a way of revealing itself and the damage that it can cause leads to page turning suspense. I highly recommend this quick read to anyone who likes to sit on the edge of their seat and loves some good steamy scenes. I am now going to go read the first book in the series and then probably have a book hang over.

Genre – Mafia, Romantic Suspense

We knew the bloodbath was possible, just not when or how our enemies would strike. In a heart-wrenching minute of blazing guns, the responsibility of getting retribution for the savage Italian Crime Family falls to me, Salvatore Larussio.

The fair-skinned beauty should focus on doing as she’s told and been trained to do. Suture and bandage quickly to stem the flow of Larussio blood. Instead, Natasha boldly defies me, trying to appeal to decency that after today no longer exists.

A man surrounded by fear and deception can sense it, feel it, and smell it in the air. There’s far more to Natasha underneath that icy exterior than she wants me or anyone to know. Despite that, she calls to my tainted soul as though she were put on earth just for me.

When I force the hot-tempered beauty to reveal her secrets, it can be our undoing, or a means to an end for a newly appointed Larussio King.

Or a revelation that will kill even the deepest of love.

Boss’s Vendetta is the explosive first book in the Sicilian Gods series by Via Mari. It is a deliciously dark, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, mafia romance. You will love these novels where the passion is fiery, the loyalty is fierce, and the stakes are high. Each book is a standalone that focuses on different couples in each book. They all have a guaranteed happily ever after, at the conclusion.

This is the 2nd book in the Houston After Dark series, while I have not read the first book I didn’t really feel like I was missing anything. Callie has had a crush on her brother’s best friend, Noah, for years. He only sees her that way, or so she thought. Noah is starting to realize he wants Callie even though he shouldn’t. Will he give into temptation or will he allow his past to dictate his future? I will most definitely be reading the rest of this series. Warning for glasses wearing folks, the steamy nature of this book might fog up those glasses. You have been warned.

Callie Rose has had a crush on her brother’s best friend, Noah, for years. She decides to go to the sex club he frequents to see what happens, and sees more than she bargained for. Very soon after she is attacked heading into her dorm room, and her brother assigns Noah to guard her while they find the perpetrator. Noah tries not to give in to his desires for Callie, but quickly loses the battle with himself which leads to some spicy scenes!

I really liked Callie. She has had a rough life, raised by her brother, Grant, after both parents go to jail. She grew into a kind, but strong woman who takes no crap, and I loved seeing her stand up for herself and take what she wanted. Noah genuinely wants to do the right thing and struggles with what that is. I get why he didn’t want to tell Grant about what happened when he was in college, though I wish he had said something sooner.

Some of the things that happened with Erik and how some of the characters reacted to it didn’t fully make sense to me, but I was glad to see the resolution. Overall, this is a good book. It is the second in a series, but you do not have to read the first book to enjoy this book.

This book kept me on the tip of my toes. Noah and Callie are so cute together, although Noah was a little frustrating because of his stubbornness. Callie Rose is a total baddie though, she was very brave and a good MC. The book was pretty entertaining and fast paced. A LOT of smut. A lot of GOOD smut. But it still has a plot, so it’s all around good

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a very hot and steamy read. The connection and attraction between the main character is electric and jumps off the page. As a reader you are completely consumed by this couples feelings and attraction. You feel the fight that they go through to not give into their feelings but sometimes there is nothing you can do to fight the attraction.

Callie has lived a protected life with her over protective brother but she is a grown woman and feels its time to go after what she wants. And what she wants is her brother best friend Noah.
When she goes to a club hoping to bump into him she gets more than she imagined when she witnesses him with another woman. This vision caused her crush to go from simmering to boiling hot and she knows there is no turning back.

Noah spots Callie in the crowd watching him. He is shocked but also completely captivated by her. His feelings for her change and grow and he wants her so bad.

When Callie is attacked, he takes her in with the intention to protect her as a favour to her brother but as time goes on he realises that he’s also doing it for himself. He is falling for her and can’t help himself.
However, this romance isn’t going to be plain sailing. By being with him Callie is in danger and no matter how much he wants her he needs her to keep her distance to protect her from someone in his past.

Can they ignore their feelings? Can Noah risk putting Callie in danger for a chance of a happy life? Will this couple finally get to embrace their attraction to each other or will things from the past and Callie’s brother have other ideas?

This is one book that you won’t be able to put down and this couple will drag you into their story and they won’t let go.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and had my work life balance allowed I would have read it in one sitting. It is an emotional, dramatic and occasionally dark best friends little sister romance.
This is the second book in the series, but is great as a stand-alone, I can defiantly say I am going to go back to the start and read the first book.
Callie Rose has for years hidden the fact that she has feelings for her brothers’ best friend. After her parents are jailed, she is raised by her brother so her relationship with him is extremely close. And his view of his little sister is that of one that he needs to protect, as their father is not around. Studying at College Callie makes the decision to try and win the affection of Noah.
Noah an Army veteran has a past that he is trying to keep in the past. He has someone who is threatening those he becomes close to. His boss and best friend know nothing about this, and although he has feelings towards his best friends sister, he knows he cannot put her at risk by having a relationship with her. He vents his sexual feelings at The Stable, the local sex club. This works well until the night Callie Rose sits there watching him. But who else is watching, as his past continues to follow him, car accidents, attacks and drugging all add up to an all-encompassing read with a healthy smattering of explicit content.

His secret tragedy

Her hidden desire

And their willingness to risk everything… 

Rafael Marroquin believes he’s cursed. He refuses to get close to people, because when he does, they get hurt. To his friends in Moon Harbor, Raf is known as the quiet, reliable one who never causes trouble. But if the town found out about his tragic past, they’d think differently. 

After the death of her parents, everyone in town has treated Ellie Waters as delicate. All she wants is to live life on her terms and carve her own path. And maybe finally hook up with Rafael, the man she’s secretly pined for since she was a teen. Ellie’s all grown up now, but Raf still sees her as his best friend’s kid sister—or does he? 

But just as their friendship finally gives way to all-consuming chemistry, the past rears its ugly head and threatens everything. Their town is at risk. Ellie is in danger. And trouble comes for Raf, in more ways than one. 

Can they save each other before it’s too late? And can their love survive?

This was a gem that was very much enjoyed all the way through! I was swept away with the easy flow of the author’s writing and how the characters were and how they developed by the end! Great read!

The book as I said had an easy flow, but it was not all candy and gum drops. There was a suspenseful side to the story as well. I really loved the chemistry and lustful moments between Kylee and Jayson. They were both different but when they were together there was no denying what was blooming between them. I enjoy stories where two people want to be together, really have to work towards that goal For these two there was a million reasons to stay apart, but how long could they fight it The character development between them was really deep and heartfelt.I felt I knew them all my life. Loved that the author did such a strong development with the story and the characters. I loved this book all the way through, I will be reading more by this author for sure, I cannot wait to binge what other creations of books they have written! Definitely a author I want to experience more of, their writing style was perfect!

Loved this book, it held me all the way through, and was a gripping read for more than one reason! I could not put this one down! For sure a must read on my list, and no doubt, a high recommendation from me!

A Love Restrained by Becky Flade is a romantic suspense with a slow-burn contemporary romance, opposites attract, finding love unexpectedly, danger, mystery, drama, secrets, chemistry, tension, intrigue, and some violence.
What happens when a dedicated police officer comes face to face with her former bad boy crush who is now entrenched in the world of crime? You should definitely read all the intriguing developments for yourself.
Happy Reading!

A Love Restrained by Becky Flade – Review by Kelli Harper

A Love RestrainedA Love Restrained by Becky Flade
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Growing up in two different lifestyles, Kylee in a loving and secure home and Jayson from an abusive home.
Never able to pursue the relationship he wanted to pursue in high school. Jayson thinks he can make it up to Kylee now, but can a criminal like him get a cop like her to fall in love with him?

There is a HUGE time lapse of 6 years in the middle of this story where I feel there was so much that was left out. I could see there being a whole other story with the main story. The author could have ended this book on a cliff hanger and written a book about the 6 years, then pick up but alas that is not what happened. I feel there is a lot we could have learned about Kylee and Jayson and how they have come to be who they are now.

Good story line if you can follow the dialogue. Sometimes the switch from First to third person and back can get confusing. But it does add a depth to the book that is unusual.

This is the first book I have read by this author, and I will be looking into more. Very good story.
