What do you do when everything you have ever wanted in a love is right in front of you but you’re too paralyzed by fear to reach out and take a risk?

In One Final Chance, that was Fallon and Parks. Two people who have been best friends since before a tragic accident changed everything and much more for a while. They share their hardships and their successes. They confide all – except the truth. They are are in love with each other and it’s getting harder and harder to keep those feelings in the dark. When Fallon finds herself in a horrible breakup and no place to go, she turns to the one person who has always been there for her – her best friend, Parks. This situation seems more and more impossible. How can Parks keep what he feels to himself when he has no place to hide? How can Fallon bounce back and get on her feet when her life falls more and more apart and her safe place to fall may not be so safe for her heart after all?

Parks is just the sweetest, most adoring guy. His feelings for Fallon have grown so much over time. She is everything but still can be nothing more than a friend. He simply doesn’t want to lose her, so he is willing to sacrifice his love for her lifelong friendship. Fallon has been so knocked down by love with the same idiot that she knows that she has to find a way to stand on her own. Loss after loss after loss comes her way but she never stops fighting. Fierce and feisty. Still these two are as hardheaded as they come and on more than one occassion, I could have throttled them! I often screamed at them, “JUST TELL EACH OTHER ALREADY!!!” But this was worth the slow build to an amazing reveal and commitment to each other.

One Final Chance is simply one amazing best friends to lovers to forever romance. While it has its sinfully sexy moments, at its core this is a sweet sigh worthy romance. I loved it and fell so hard for Parks. I rooted for him, laughed at his antics and just seeing him get the guts made this read a great way to spend the afternoon!

FANTASTIC, LK!

5 Sweet Romance Stars!

One Final Chance is a sexy, angst filled, friends to lovers stand-alone novel!

What happens when the one you’re meant to be with has been right in front of you all along?

Fallon Wrenshaw never screamed one single word so loudly in all her life.
Her throat burned.
Her ears rang.
All she wanted was for him to stop, but it didn’t matter—it was too late.
What’s done was done.
And in that moment, she realized she’d been blind to the truth for years.
All her greatest fears turned into her sad reality. She watched it all unfold right before her, no longer able to deny it.
Her heart shattered so thoroughly, she couldn’t imagine going on.

That was . . . until Parks.
He helped her see things differently.
He always had.
He was her light—her constant—her salvation.
He was her best friend and he’d been there all along, it just took her a while to see what was meant to be, and when she did, she worried it was too late.
That she’d lost her one final chance at love.

Parks

I open the door to find Fallon standing there. I thought she was working today, so her being here has me worried. She looks up at me, clearly upset. Her green eyes are filled with tears, and my heart breaks. My arms open to her, and she falls against my chest, letting me guide her inside as she sobs uncontrollably. I have no clue what happened, but I have a feeling that it has something to do with Leo.

“Shhhhh,” I tell her and rub up and down her back. The closeness of our bodies has my cock fuckin’ throbbing, and I fight the feeling the way I have my entire life. Now is not the time for this, especially with how upset she is. Fallon and I are friends, best friends in fact, and have been since we were kids. But I’ve been in love with her my entire life; I’ve just never told her about my feelings.

“Here, come sit,” I tell her when her sobs become less erratic and she turns her face up to me. Her cheeks are streaked with her makeup, and her lip is trembling, but she’s no longer sobbing as she lets me move her to the couch. She flops her tight ass down, and the second I sit next to her, she scoots over to my lap, laying her head a few inches away from my dick.

Motherfucker!

I let out a breath of air, imagining my dad naked to help control my cock. If I get hard right now with her on my lap, she’d be mortified and surely hate me. But I can feel it growing, so I decide to start talking to see if the will help.

“Is it Leo?” I ask her, and she nods her head as she wipes her sleeve across her cheek.

Goddamn it, don’t move.

“I . . . I don’t know how I let this happened again, Parks.”

My cock won’t stop, and I have to slip away. “I’m going to grab you some tissues,” I tell her, and she sits up, nodding at me so innocently. I grab a box of Kleenex, which I only have because I was sick last week and Fallon brought them over. As I head back to the living room, I find Fallon with her knees pulled to her chest, and I think I have a fair shot at keeping my dick down if she is on her side of the couch.

“Here,” I tell her as I hand her the box. She wipes her eyes and blows her nose, and I have to know what happened. As much as I know it will hurt her to replay whatever happened, I need to know. “What did that asshole do?”

Provocative by Lisa Renee Jones

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

He saw the darkness in her beauty.
She saw the beauty in his darkness.

I just finished Provocative by Lisa Renee Jones and I’m still UTTERLY SPELLBOUND!!! My mind is SPINNING from the suspense. I’m in a DREAMY DAZE. I can’t think straight. I’m still STUCK in this story!!! This story has not released my soul that is still swimming in a sea of suspense. My heart is still furiously beating out of my chest, racing like that of an Olympic runner. My body is going through the motions, directed by my brain that is still under the spell of this story. My mind is not mine. Provocative rendered me MIND-BLOWN!!!

Provocative CLAIMED and CONSUMED every ounce of me from the very first page.Mind racing. Pulse pounding. Feels flowing. Eyes wide in anticipation. Heart beating out of my chest. I felt the current of Provocative flow through me. I was HIGH on this drug of a tale and could not get enough of this FIX.

I was ENTHRALLED and ON EDGE as Provocative pushed me to the edge, transporting me to another world where I was held in suspense, left in a stupor. This story SEDUCED ME…word by word…feel by feel…weaving me into its scintillating spell. Provocative leapt to life so vividly, as if I were watching a movie my head. This story with its secrets and smolder bled into me; I was bound to Provocative. Hook. Line. Sinker.

Nick ‘Tiger’ Jones is intense. With his long hair and dark blue eyes, this rich and arrogant man is gorgeous…ALL ALPHA. This man is on the hunt for a woman who may be connected to his past.

I didn’t want to even like this Tiger, but fell for Nick hard and fast. I LOVED THIS DARK HERO!!! This Tiger is tough on the outside but a little tender at the core.

Faith Winters is blonde, green-eyed, and a beautiful artist and winery owner. Her life has been based on lies and death has played a key role. Like Queen Elsa in Frozen, Faith is as bold as she is beautiful with strength in spades!

When Faith and Nick meet, there is a cloud of heat, palpable passion and a connection that feels familiar.

There wasn’t anything romantic or sweet about our connection. It was dark and jagged. The kind of attraction that’s unforgiving in its demands. The kind of attraction that’s all consuming.

The Tiger is on the hunt, a predator about to pounce on his prey.

“Am I a friend or an enemy?”

“I haven’t decided.”

Faith, this bold beauty, doesn’t trust anyone. Yet she lets Nick enter her impenetrable fortress, though she is still guarded.

“I want you stripped bare and not just exposed. Willingly exposed. The two are vastly different.”

“And what exactly do you expect to expose?”

I lower my head, my cheek near hers but not touching. “All of you.”

I SMOLDERED and SWOONED as Nick’s words of passion and possession POSSESSED ME!!!

Nick won’t stop until he claims the ice queen as his. Mind. Body. Soul.

“What’s your sin, Faith?”

“I’m pretty sure it’s you.”

Despite the shield of secrets between Faith and Nick, their bodies are open books, smitten with one another.

I lower my head and kiss her, licking into her mouth, the taste of anger and the betrayal I’d seen in her eyes on her lips, and it guts me. I am betraying her.

Faith and Nick’s chemistry is combustible, an explosion of emotions meets the blazing of bodies. The only problem is that one or both may get burned.

We’re damage attracting damage.

Two damaged souls attracted to the darkness that both breathe and bleed. Secrets linger like bubbles ready to burst. Can two broken hearts heal together as one?

Everyone needs a Tiger in their corner.

Explosive. Exhilarating. Emotionally-entwined. Evocative. Provocative is nothing like I expected; it’s SO MUCH MORE!!!Provocative is smoldering suspense at its best! No one writes sizzling suspense like Lisa Renee Jones-Harrison..NO ONE. Lisa Renee Jones flawlessly executed Provocative that ruled every piece of me. This breathless and brilliant book was EVERYTHING!!!

Provocative is CHARGED with LIFE — an EMOTIONAL EXPLOSION that detonates in a mind-bender of a book where you’re rendered breathless and melting for more! This is not just a story but an immersion into another world. A world that holds you powerless in its clutches, daring you to escape. Escaping this enthralling tale that possesses power over the reader isn’t easy. Trust me…I know.

Heart-stopping sexy meets mind-blowing suspense in a story that will BLOW YOU AWAY!!! A shot of adrenaline to the core, Provocative is incredibly INTENSE and INTOXICATING! Provocative is PURE PERFECTION!!! I’m swathed in sin and smolder, POSSESSED, as Provocative will forever hold its POWER over me. I NEED MORE NOW!!!
❤️

Book one in the sexy and intense new White Lies duet by Lisa Renee Jones!
There are those moments in life that are provocative in their very existences, that embed in our minds forever, and sometimes our very souls. They change us, mold us, maybe even save save us. But some are darker, dangerous. If we allow them to, they control us. Seduce us. Quite possibly even destroy us.

The moment I walked into Sonoma’s Reid Winter Winery and Vineyard and made eye contact with Faith Winter for the first time was one of those moments. Provocative because I know at least one of her secrets, of which, I suspect she has many. Provocative because she believes I was a stranger to her when we met, but I am not. Provocative because I sought her out, with no intention of touching her. But now I have. Now I want her. Now I have to have her. But that changes nothing. It doesn’t change why I came for her.

The Hot Shot by Kristen Callihan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

You don’t find love; it finds you. It’s got a little bit to do with destiny, fate, and what’s written in the stars.

Love found me when I dove into The Hot Shot by Kristen Callihan, a deep and dreamy love story that soared straight to my soul.

Maybe it’s because I love FOOTBALL and watch it obsessively.

Maybe it’s because I love sports romances, my favorite romance genre next to rocker reads.

Maybe because friends-to-lovers romances are my weakness…my kryptonite.

Maybe it’s because I need to lose myself completely in stories, feeling every word.

Maybe it’s because I get a thrill when meeting a new or new-to-me author.

No…not maybe at all…but YES!!! YES to all of these and more! Kristen Callihan wrote SO MUCH MORE than a sports meets friends-to-lovers romance!!! The Hot Shot is a love story of FEELS and FATE, a romance of DREAMS and DESTINY. This book wholeheartedly CAPTIVATED ME, calling to my heart and soul, as The Hot Shot CONSUMED ME from beginning to end. There haven’t been many sports romances that have made me FEEL EVERY WORD like The Hot Shot did, a story that shot stars along with tears in my eyes.

The first thing I noticed about The Hot Shot was how smooth and seamless Kristen Callihan’s writing flows, as if this book were an ocean and the words were waves, separate but perfectly intact and intertwined with the story. I can’t exactly explain it but this book just FELT RIGHT. From the very start, The Hot Shot CLICKED in every way. I felt this natural ease when reading The Hot Shot with words that not only perfectly flowed but were FLAWLESS. Reading this story felt as natural as breathing, and at times I held my breath in excitement and anticipation.

Is there anything sweeter than a friends-to-lovers romance?!? A friendship that blossoms like a flower into more. The Hot Shot is sweetness meets smolder, a friends-to-lovers romance with passion in spades. This story is SWOON in spades and oh did The Hot Shot hero make me swoon like I was watching a sappy Hallmark movie during Christmastime.

Finn Mannus is an all-star NFL quarterback, a player on and off the field. Gorgeous with sun-kissed brown hair and sky-blue eyes, tall, chiseled, and cut…beautiful inside and out. The last thing he wants or needs is to entangle himself into a relationship, lose his focus from the ball.

I suspect Ms. Chess Copper is going to take me down and make me feel it.

Except Finn didn’t count on a sassy, spitfire, tattooed, pin-up looking beauty with dark hair and green eyes to throw him off his game. Chess Copper has dated a bunch of frogs and has yet to find her prince. Her prince is bearded and inked, eccentric, an artist of some sort. Her prince is not supposed to look like the pretty boy quarterback who pushes her buttons.

It’s too bad that fate has other plans…

The second I touch him, I know it’s a mistake…In that instant, I know him. I know him. I feel like I’ve known him my whole existence, like I’ve been waiting for him to return from wherever he’s been.

Friends…the friend zone is easy. Chess and Finn will be friends only…
Until lines are blurred…

“You and me. We could be real.”

With each of Finn’s heart-hitting words, my heart blossomed, blooming, bleeding for love.
Feelings develop…

“One day, Chess, you’re going to feel safe enough to let go. And I’m going to be there to catch you when you fall.”

Oh Finn…this sweet and sexy man stole my heart. Caring. Considerate. Cocky. Complex. Utterly perfect! Finn…this brave and beautiful man OWNED me. I cried happy and sappy tears as this big and strong quarterback is vulnerable inside, and that itself is powerful. Finn held my heart in his hands. My heart was all Finn’s! I LOVED this hero, this knight-in-shining armor so very much.

Those lines are crossed…

Finn presses his mouth to mine. The kiss is sweet and swift, a touch of lips to lips, a slight exchange of air. And it still manages to stop my heart and send heat flaring up my thighs.

That kiss, so sweet and delicate was EVERYTHING!!! I could not help but smile, as this kiss lifted me up to the clouds, swooning all the way.

The chemistry between Chess and Finn is a play they can’t fake. They have crossed the Friend Zone and jumped into the Point of No Return…

“Tell me again that I’m a bad bet. Because I can’t wait to prove you wrong.”

“Prove it.”

Their connection is real. Somehow whatever it is between Chess and Finn feels right…but neither do relationships…

“Everything is right when I’m with you.”

Sweet. Sexy. Soulful. I SMILED a lot. I CRIED at times. I HELD MY BREATH a few times. I FELT ALL THE EMOTIONS the whole time. The Hot Shot with its hero quarterback with a huge heart held my heart the whole time reading. I don’t think I could love Finn any more as this PERFECT Prince Charming POSSESSED ME!!!

Feel-worthy and flawless, The Hot Shot is a football love story flooded with feels, and I dare you not to feel every single word! I FELT ALL OF THE FEELS in The Hot Shot like a spiral ball straight to my heart! This story is a slow burn of the soul. I am still soaring in the clouds with stars in my eyes, floating on Cloud Nine. I still can feel one hell of a hangover heating me like the Summer sun from The Hot Shot, a sweet and swoon-filled sports romance that shot through my soul and made my heart dance!

Why did I wait so long to meet the master writer and word magician known as Kristen Callihan?!? I was a fool to not inhale this author’s books sooner! There is no greater BOOK BLISS for me than discovering and then LOVING a new or new-to-me author’s writing, such as Kristen Callahan’s. I am a fan girl for life! I am in UTTER LOVE with this author’s powerful writing, as Kristen Callihan made me experience every emotion through mere words!!!

Kristen Callihan rose to my all-time favorite authors with one book: The Hot Shot. One book that made me smile, swoon, smolder, and snicker. One book that hit my heart and soared through my soul. One book that was beauty in words. One book where I felt every word. One book that was MINE IN EVERY WAY as I was its.

I was WOWED and WOUNDED, my heart breaking in the best way, as The Hot Shot did one hell of a heart-stopping number on me. This tale is one tender-loving TOUCHDOWN!!! This book is PURE MELT-WORTHY MAGIC! The Hot Shot is a shot to the heart, PERFECT IN EVERY WAY!!! ❤

“Do you understand? Your life stops, mine does too.”

First we were friends. Then we were roommates. Now I want more…
What can I say about Chess Copper? The woman is capable of bringing me to my knees. I know this about five minutes after getting naked for her.

No one is more surprised than me. The prickly photographer my team hired to shoot our annual charity calendar isn’t my usual type. She’s defense to my offense, a challenge at every turn. But when I’m with her, all the regrets and darkness goes away. She makes life fun.

I want to know Chess, be close to her. Which is a bad idea.
Chess is looking for a relationship. I’ve never given a woman more than one night. But when fate leaves Chess without a home, I step up and offer her mine. We’re roommates now. Friends without benefits. But it’s getting harder to keep our hands off each other. And the longer we live together the more I realize she’s becoming my everything.
Trick is… Now that I’ve made her believe I’m a bad bet, how do I convince her to give this player a true shot at forever? 

FINN

She sits quietly as I eat, and shakes her head when I offer her a sandwich section. Because I’m hungry, and because I don’t like the idea of her having to wait for me to eat, I wolf down my food. The brownie follows with a few, quick bites.

Wiping my hands on a napkin, I set the plate and empty can on a side table, and then let out a contented sigh. “Thanks. I needed that.”

Her smile is small and quick. “I should have fed you as soon as you got here.”

“I’m good now.”

Chess braces her hands on the seat and leans forward to watch her feet as we slowly rock the swing. Silence descends, thick and awkward, and for the first time in her presence, I’m at a loss for words.

I don’t know this girl. Not really, and yet I’ve inserted myself into her life with a determination I usually reserve for winning games. Except I have no endgame here. I told her I want to be friends. But how does that work for us?  

Our friends and lives couldn’t be any more different. Parties for me are self-congratulatory events, filled with people whose one focus seems to be bolstering my ego, followed by me searching for a quick hookup. And my friends are all part of football in some way. We talk football or sports. It’s a narrow focus life, but it’s my comfort zone. That chafes too, knowing I live a life that seems wild and free to outsiders but is actually small and structured on the inside.

The silence has stretched too long. I should go. But I don’t move. If I go, I know it will be the end of whatever this is. Embarrassment will have me avoiding seeking her out again. Likely, she’ll do the same. And that will be that.

The knowledge sits like a stone on my chest.

“I’m sorry about my friends,” Chess says. “They can be uncomfortably brazen.”

“So can mine.” I shrug. “Your friends are…fun.”

Her lips pull tight. “They can be. But they were definitely giving me—and by extension—you shit tonight.” She bites her bottom lip. “I don’t think they know what to make of you.”

“So I wasn’t imagining things.”

“’Fraid not.”

The novel sensation of being a fish tossed into the wrong pond grows. I’ve taken away Chess’s fun by coming here, and I’m sorry for it.

“I shouldn’t have asked you to come here,” Chess says in a low voice.

She’s only echoing my thoughts but the stone sitting on my chest pushes harder against my ribs.

Chess makes a small sound, as if she’s trying to laugh but can’t. “Parties suck when you arrive halfway through and don’t know anyone.”

“I know you,” I point out quietly.

She turns and the porch light illuminates her face. Green eyes met mine and hold, as a slow, true smile curls over her cherry lips. Something inside of me shifts and slides. I want to kiss Chester Copper. Haul her onto my lap and make out with her like we’re teenagers hiding out at our parents’ party. But that’s not what she invited me here for.

“I wanted to see you,” she confesses in that husky morning voice that goes straight to my cock. She turns away and stares out into the darkness. “It’s weird, you know? But hanging out with you was so unexpected it kind of felt like I imagined the whole thing.”

I know exactly what she means. My hand settles next to hers, close enough that our pinkies touch. That small point of contact sparks along my skin, makes me want to move closer. I hold steady because I don’t trust myself not to act. “I wanted to see you too,” I tell her. “It’s been a long fucking day.”

I hadn’t planned to admit that, but it feels good to tell her.

Chess eases back against the seat and then curls her fingers over mine with a light squeeze. The unexpected touch holds all my attention. It’s nothing more than a simple offer of comfort, and here I am twitching in my seat as if she’d cupped my dick instead. I’m in so much trouble here because this woman is getting to me in ways I don’t know how to navigate. But I don’t pull away. Not one fucking chance of that.

Chess speaks, pulling me attention back to our conversation. “So tell me about it.”

I can’t remember the last time anyone asked me to tell them about my day. Likely, no one ever has.

So I do. And with every word that leaves my mouth, a little bit more of my stress eases. No, I don’t yet truly know Chess. And yes, our lives are different. But there’s no way I’m ending this. Because when it’s just her and me, everything else falls away. I’m not going to let myself forget that again.

The House Mate by Kendall Ryan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*** An ARC was exchanged for an honest review. ***

The best relationships begin as friendships.

I have a huge SMILE on my face as I bask in the glow of the best BOOK BLISS rendered by Kendall Ryan! The House Mate is ROMANCE MAGIC! Flawless and fabulous! The House Mate is a sweet, sexy, swoon-filled friends-to-lovers meets employee-boss romance that leaves you melting for more.

The House Mate hijacked me where I was glued to this brilliant book. This story SEDUCED ME with sugary sweetness and I could not help but SURRENDER! The forbidden element screamed EXCITEMENT as this book BOOMED with pleasurable angst!

The first line of this addicting story SOLD ME!!! Hook. Line. Sinker. I sank into the story so deeply and never came up for air.

“In thirty-four years, I hadn’t found a woman yet who could handle me.”

I quickly thought about the 101 ways I’d handle this hotness.

Max Alexander, a single and super sexy dad, develops a friendship with his little lady’s beautiful and new nanny, Addison. Addison is a breath of fresh air and sunshine all wrapped into one pretty package, a beautiful distraction Max doesn’t need.

“I stared at her, wondering if she could see my heart beating out of my chest.”

Max made me MELT into a pool of goo from head to toe. Tall, dark, and handsome with muscles and ink, and a sweet and dirty mouth made for one MALE MASTERPIECE. Add that hotness to a doting dad and I was DONE. DONE! This super sweet and sexy single dad made me SMOLDER and SWOON so much!!!

Max is Addison’s boss and her job is on the line if she crosses the friendship line, a friendship full of sparks and ready to ignite into a firestorm.

“Whenever I looked at him it felt like I couldn’t breathe.”

Oh my SIGH! This story with swoon in spades was my UNDOING! I LOVED this love story!

Temptation is tough. So tough. That temptation turns into a kiss, a scorching and sweet kiss.

“I lunged at her, sweeping her into my arms and crushing my mouth to hers…Feeling her lips in mine, the sweet mint of her breath, the heat of her skin, it was all complete perfection.”

One kiss that rocked Max and Addison’s world. One kiss that can never happen again. An employee-boss relationship is out. Forbidden. More could ruin everything.

This book BOOMS with angst, The House Mate so forbidden and fabulous!

“I had a good thing here, and I wasn’t about to blow it over a crush.”

This story SEDUCED ME, The House Mate with its lethal combo of sweetness, smolder, and swoon. I REVELED in this romance; its smooth flow, sweetness and smolder UNRAVELED ME. I felt butterflies fluttering in my belly. I sighed from all of the swoon-filled moments. I smiled nearly the whole time reading. I was SWEPT under the spell of The House Mate, helpless to do anything except FEEL this fairy tale.

The House Mate is a tender friends-to-lovers tale that touched me HARD. A laugh-out-loud funny meets endearing tale is impossible not to ADORE! I CRUSHED on The House Mate so much! This dreamy tale is a new favorite by Kendall Ryan, a must-read romance with a destination of Cloud Nine! ❤️

Max Alexander is nearing thirty-five. He’s built a successful company, and he’s conquered the professional world, but he’s never been lucky in love. Focusing so much time on his business and raising his daughter, adulting has come at the expense of his personal life.

His social skills are shit, his patience is shot, and at times, his temper runs hot.

The last thing he has time for is the recently single, too gorgeous for her own good young woman he hires to take care of his little girl. She’s a distraction he doesn’t need, and besides, there’s no way she’d be interested. But you know what they say about assumptions? 

This is book 3 in the Roommates series, but each can be read as a complete standalone, as they feature new couples. (less)

A MUST-CLICK ROMANCE!!!

The Player by K. Bromberg

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

You just can’t beat the person who never gives up. ~Babe Ruth

Sitting in the stands watching your favorite baseball team play is a high that dives off the diamond straight to you as the energy engulfs the air. The fans are engaged and intently watching the players with baseball greats in tight pants an added bonus. Adrenaline courses through your veins as you hope your team wins. You can’t help but feel alive. The Player by K. Bromberg made me feel alive! Pulse-pounding and passionate, The Player penetrates the heart like a fastball, soaring straight to the soul!

When your heart is still racing and your pulse is pounding after you finish a book, it’s the highest of highs…the best feeling ever!!! I rode the highest of highs with The Player. This story SPARKED TO LIFE, and oh did I feel every flame…every tremor…every word…EVERYTHING! Easton and Scout together were EVERYTHING! The Player was EVERYTHING!!!

The Player held my heart soon after I turned the first page, never letting go…I never let go. This baseball book instantly catapulted itself into my heart and mind with a force I was powerless to stop. The Player ASSAULTED me, its angst was my adrenaline and ache; its pendulum of fire and ice was my passion; and its power was my power too. This soul-searing story struck me like a fast ball, fast and furiously. The Player was all fired up and ready to ignite all of the feels where I could not help but feel every one.

The Player — so powerful and passionate —POSSESSED me. I could not devour this heart-stopping sexy and strong story fast enough. The baseball meets romance plot is powerful, Easton and Scout were combustible together — so raw and real — and Bromberg’s writing is off-the-charts incredible, flowing with a heady mix of feels and fire. My feels were on fire, engulfed in emotions that were flames, blazing with a dual dose of heady heat and heart.

The dedication made me smile.
The dedication is as powerful and poignant as the book.
The dedication is personal, a glimpse into the real woman behind the author…not K. Bromberg but Kristy.
The dedication is EVERYTHING!!!

Not even ten percent in and this story was already 5 stars. INSTANT LOVE!!! K. Bromberg quickly hit this baseball book out of the park, and the game had barely begun. I KNEW that, being a sports romance addict, The Player would be a huge hit but I did not expect my heart to be hit the hardest. I did not expect to NEED The Player so very much. This raw and riveting romance was my oxygen to breathe, as I NEEDED The Player, pure power and passion in words.

Easton Wylder is a baseball god. A legend on and off the field. Smokin’ hot. A player with a heart of gold. A super star who has to defy the odds of playing baseball again after a big injury.

Scout Dalton is beautiful, brave, and bold. A female in a man’s world of baseball. A ball-buster in a ball game-focused world. A healer as a physical therapist who has to live up to a legend.

Scout is partnered with Easton, her new patient. Fire and ice. Open and closed. Hero and heroine.

“If you’re going to bust my chops, Wilder, you should know that I can give as good as I get.”

Like the rest of K. Bromberg’s heroines, Scout is strength in spades with quick wit. I LOVED this sassy spitfire of a heroine! Scout batted virtual balls with the player, a battle of banter that was charged with electricity….so enticing and entertaining. Words were FIRE, burning through the pages. 

“I’m a hard girl to please.”

Patient blends with player. 

“A demanding woman indeed,” he murmurs before giving me that tender type of kiss that reverberates to your toes and then all the way back up until it slams into your belly.

Lines are blurred…maybe crossed.

Oh the heat that SMOLDERS from this story! 

“Good thing I’ve got a big bat and know how to use it.”

There may be no going back now…

“I think I got to you. I think when you close your eyes, you think about me. I think you don’t want to, but you do, because God knows I think about you, Scout.”

The push and pull of The Player was the sweetest ache.

I SWOONED, as Easton’s words MELTED ME like molten lava. Easton and Scout have combustible chemistry paired with passion that’s difficult to ignore…a fight neither will win. The push and pull. The fire and ice. One or both may crash and burn. This game may end in a shut-out where only one player comes out on top.

This baseball romance has heart…ALL of the HEART. The Player touched my heart so many times that I lost count.The passion bleeds through the pages, each word a drop that oozed to life. My tears fell hard and fast like baseballs, as these characters’ pain became mine. I felt every word penetrate through me, pounding every emotion: smiles, swoon, and tears…I FELT IT ALL!

The Player hits hard like a fast ball, feels soaring all of the way across the bases! K. Bromberg takes you on the diamond, in the locker room, so close to this baseball game that you’re part of this baseball team too. You can’t help but surrender to this sports story—baseball meets romance—as emotions entangle around every word like a mitt to a baseball.

There is one constant in K. Bromberg’s books: Live life to the fullest. Take a chance…a risk. Make every moment matter. This book and all of K. Bromberg’s other masterpieces matter.

I went into The Player expecting a sizzling sports romance with a few feels. What I received was ALL OF THE FEELS and so much more. The Player is perseverance. The Player is power. The Player is passion. The Player is a punch to the heart. The Player is K. Bromberg’s poignant words wrapped around a baseball story woven in love. The Player is PURE PERFECTION. The Player has ALL OF THE SPARK…ALL OF HEART…ALL OF THE SOUL. All of MY heart. All of MY soul.

K. Bromberg brought her A-game out to play in The Player, a grand-slam of a baseball romance that hits the heart and slays the soul. I LOVED The Player so much! A 2017 super star, The Player is the best baseball romance I’ve ever met! A MUST-READ ROMANCE!!! This baseball-meets-romance book—an ACE—is in the big leagues! I’m not ready for this game to be over. 

“I’ve played on grass my whole life, Scout. There’s no need for me to see what’s out there when it’s green beneath my feet.”

Baseball has never been sexier in an all-new novel by New York Times Bestselling Author, K. Bromberg.

Easton Wylder is baseball royalty. The game is his life. His passion. His everything.

So, when an injury threatens to end Easton’s season early, the team calls in the renowned physical therapist, Doc Dalton, to oversee his recovery. Except it’s not Doc who greets Easton for his first session, but rather his daughter, Scout. She may be feisty, athletic, defiant, and gorgeous, but Easton is left questioning whether she has what it takes to help him.

Scout Dalton’s out to prove a female can handle the pressure of running the physical therapy regimen of an MLB club. And that proof comes in the form of getting phenom Easton Wylder back on the field. But getting him healthy means being hands-on.

And with a man as irresistible as Easton, being hands-on can only lead to one thing, trouble. Because the more she touches him, the more she wants him, and she can’t want him. Not when it’s her job to side in the club’s best interest if he’s ready to play.

But when sparks fly and fine lines are crossed, can they withstand the heat or is one of them bound to get burned?

Anchor Me by J. Kenner

My rating: 6 of 5 stars

Over three years ago, I met Julie Kenner’s Stark series, and I’ve been enamored with this incredible author’s words ever since. The seductive, steamy, sweet, and suspenseful Stark trilogy by J. Kenner that started with Release Me spun into a series of stories that own me for life. Damien and Nikki are back, and their love is stronger than ever!!!

The latest full Stark series novel, Anchor Me, is FLAWLESS and PHENOMENAL!!! This tale takes Nikki and Damien’s saga full circle. Scorching, sweet, and soul-searing, Anchor Me is the ultimate love story that stands the test of time and tribulation. THE TRUEST LOVE!

Excited to be reunited with my favorite J. Kenner couple and series, I sank myself into Anchor Me and was glued to this story—never surfacing for air—until the end. Thoroughly captivated and claimed, I clamored for more. I WAS ALL IN!!!

Anchor Me is the perfect continuation of original trilogy. This story is sprinkled with déjà vu moments that were a mix of UTTERLY DREAMY, DOWNRIGHT TERRIFYING, and INSANELY SATISFYING moments…so PERFECT…so RIGHT. The Starks stamped themselves all over me, imprinting me with their endless love, imprinting me with every obstacle they faced, imprinting me with every emotion, imprinting me everywhere.

There is no greater love story than that of Damien and Nikki Stark. Their devotion is UNPARALLELED and EVERLASTING…true love at its finest. Damien and Nikki are, hands down, one of my all-time favorite romance couples!!! I LOVE them sooo much!

I see a love so fierce it has the power to melt me, and I revel in its power to soothe.

It didn’t take long before my body was on fire and my emotions were fine-tuned with everything Nikki and Damien. Sinfully sexy Damien treats Nikki like a goddess, worshiping her inside and out. She is his princess and he is her prince, and Damien continues to rescue Nikki. He is the light to her dark, and Damien gives Nikki the world…his world. 

“Let it go, baby. Let the tide take you. I’ll be your tether. I’ll always pull you back home.”

I melted as these beautiful words showed just how powerful Nikki and Damien’s bond is, a forever love. Anchor Me is TENDERNESS…TRUE LOVE…and oh how I LOVED THEE. Oh how I love their devotion!!! Damien and Nikki’s chemistry is magnetic, as their bodies are attuned to each other so closely that they are one. One heartbeat for long-lasting love. 

I’m gasping, my hands fisted in the sheets, lost in this sensation of being so completely connected with him.

Anchor Me MELTED ME, as I turned to molten lava from sweet and seductive words that turned me into a pile of mush. I was so lost in these words that made me succumb to their power; their poignancy was EVERTHING. 

There’s a gulf between us. A small one, maybe, but it’s there. And I don’t know how to cross it. But I need to.

Anchor Me is the perfect continuation of this spellbinding, smoldering, suspenseful, and scintillating saga. Light-hearted moments balance the heavier or more serious ones, brining the perfect balance of tough and tenderness to Anchor Me. Nikki and Damien’s relationship is put to the ultimate test in this saga as ghosts from the past haunt and taint this couple, veiled threats that are terrorizing.

This is a story of strength in spades, and Damien and Nikki are stronger than ever! Together, they are fierce. One battle….one team….one forever…MY FOREVER.

Anchor Me grasped my heart and soul, as I sank so hard into this spellbinding story. I WAS SO ENRAPTURED with this beautiful and brilliant book! Anchor Me…yes this story did so much. I was tethered to this thrilling and tender tale, this testament to love.

I LOVED being wrapped up in this romance, and could entangle myself in the Stark family FOREVER! This series burns my body and slams into my soul with every single story. I will never get enough of Damien and Nikki’s life where I’m so eternally connected and consumed!!!

The Stark Trilogy is a forever favorite series, and a TOP 2017 READ!!! I’m still breathless, basking in the glow of this brilliant and beautiful book! Anchor Me was everything I’d hoped for and more! I’ll always be anchored to this spectacular series and STILL NEED MORE!

“I’m right beside you, and I promise you, sweetheart, I’m not going anywhere.”

★★★★★★  forever ‘anchored to me’ stars

FROM NEW YORK TIMES AND #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR J. KENNER comes the highly anticipated fourth novel in the fast-paced series including Release Me, Claim Me, and Complete Me. This sexy, emotionally charged romance continues the story of Damien Stark, the powerful multimillionaire who’s never had to take “no” for an answer, and his beloved wife Nikki Fairchild Stark, the Southern belle who only says “yes” on her own terms.

It’s a new chapter in the life of Nikki and Damien Stark …

Though shadows still haunt us, and ghosts from our past continue to threaten our happiness, my life with Damien is nothing short of perfection. He is my heart and my soul. My past and my future. He is the man who holds me together, and his love fuels my days and enchants my nights.

But when tragedy and challenge from both inside and outside the sanctity of our marriage begins to chip away at our happiness, I am forced to realize that even a perfect life can begin to crack. And if Damien and I are going to win this new battle, it will take all of our strength and love …

I look out the window at the beautifully manicured yards that line the wide street down which I am traveling in the sumptuous luxury of a classic Rolls Royce Phantom. A car so sleek and magical that I can’t help but feel like a princess in a royal coach.

The road is shaded by parallel rows of massive oaks, their branches arcing over the street toward their counterparts to form a leafy canopy. Morning light fights its way between the leaves, creating golden beams in which dust sparkles and dances as if to a celebratory melody, adding to the illusion that we are moving through a fairy tale world.

All in all, it’s a picture-perfect moment.

Except it’s not. Not really. Or at least not to me.

Because as far as I’m concerned, this is no children’s story.

This is Dallas. This is the neighborhood where I grew up. And that means that this isn’t a fairy tale. It’s a nightmare.

The branches aren’t stunning—they’re grasping. Reaching out to snare me. To hold me tight. To trap me.

The canopy doesn’t mark a royal corridor leading to a castle. It leads to a cell. And it’s not The Dance of the Sugarplum Fairies that fills the air. It is a requiem for the dead.

The world outside the car is lined with traps, and if I’m not careful, I’ll be sucked in. Destroyed by the darkness that hides behind the false facades of these stately houses. Surrounded not by a bright children’s tale, but by a horror movie, lured in by the promise of beauty and then trapped forever and slowly destroyed, ripped to pieces by the monsters in the dark.

Breathe, I tell myself. You can do this. You just have to remember to breathe.

“Nikki. Nikki.”

Damien’s voice startles me back to reality, and I jerk upright, calling upon perfect posture to ward off the ghosts of my memories.

His tone is soft, profoundly gentle, but when I glance toward him, I see that his eyes have dipped to my lap.

For a moment, I’m confused, then I realize that I’ve inched up my skirt, and my fingertip is slowly tracing the violent scar that mars my inner thigh. A souvenir of the deep, ugly wound that I inflicted upon myself a decade ago when I was desperate to find a way to release all the pent-up anger and fear and pain that swirled inside me like a phalanx of demons.

I yank my hand away, then turn to look out the window, feeling oddly, stupidly ashamed.

He says nothing, but the car moves to the curb and then rolls to a stop. A moment later, Damien’s fingers twine with mine. I hold tight, drawing strength, and when I shift to look at him more directly, I see worry etched in the hard angles of that perfect face and reflected in those exceptional, dual-colored eyes.

Worry, yes. But it is the rest of what I see that takes my breath away. Understanding. Support. Respect.

Most of all, I see a love so fierce it has the power to melt me, and I revel in its power to soothe.

He is the biggest miracle of my life, and there are moments when I still can’t believe that he is mine.

Damien Stark. My husband, my lover, my best friend. A man who commands an empire with a firm, controlling hand. Who takes orders from no one, and yet today is playing chauffeur so that he can stand beside me while I confront my past.

If You Fight by K. M. Scott

If You Fight continues Ryder and Serena’s intense, suspenseful, roller coaster relationship.

It’s hard to review this book because it’s the second instalment and it answers questions from book 1 as well as setting up book 3. So I won’t discuss the book in too much detail. 

What I will say is that KM kept up the addictive nature that sparked and held my interest from book one. She maintained the breathtaking heat and love between Ryder and Serena and made me even more attached to them. My heart broke for them and healed and broke all over again. 

KM well and truly holds all my attention and emotions in the palm of her hand and I cannot wait to see how it all ends in book three!!

I Just Want You by Kaylee Ryan

I’m going to start this review by saying I devoured I Just Want You in half a day.

I’m also going to say, I think this is Kaylee’s best book yet!

I also must say that I absolutely LOVED IT.

I Just Want You is a sexy, steamy romance full of sweetness and swoon.

One thing Kaylee nails in all of her books are her hero’s. Kaylee writes ALPHA so, so well. Alphas that know what they want, go after it and don’t care who knows. Alphas that make their claim from the start and see it through. Alphas that are POSSESSIVE, PROTECTIVE and OBSESSIVE yet RESPECTFUL and LOVING. Kaylee nails all that and more. In I Just Want You, Kaylee’s hero Crew was sheer perfection.

Crew’s relationship with Berklee was written brilliantly. I felt all of their simmering tension, heart pounding lust and then their intense, passionate love.

I love that this whole book wasn’t littered with unnecessary drama and mainly focused on the relationship between Crew and Berklee. Even the latter part of the book and the issues the couple face, fit really well and were written in a great way that allowed the story to maintain its flow and beauty.

I Just Want You is CRAZY HOT. Utterly addictive, sweet and sexy! A MUST READ!

“Go to college,” they said. “Get a good job,” they said. “It will be a piece of cake.” Well, whoever they are, they lied. Sure, college was a blast, but after college, not so much. The finding a job to go with my expensive education, that part was not so easy. At least not until I was offered a position at the new club in town.

Life is defined by the little moments that have the power to change it completely. I never thought getting a cup of coffee would change mine, but it did. She did. She’s one of those moments.

He’s my boss.

She’s my employee.

I want him.

I can’t resist her.

Amazon UK:

My heart wasn’t ready for this.
My soul wasn’t prepared to be shattered.
This journey with Vi and Corbin was not easy for me…. but oh. Oh, it was worth it. Every laugh. Every sobbing tear. Every swoon worthy scene. Every utterly sexy word and command from Corbin’s mouth. Every show of strength and tenacity from Vi.

It was worth it. Truth Revealed is perfection.

It’s been a decade since Vi and Corbin have divorced. Ten years since a lie destroyed everything that ever mattered to the both of them. They have both managed to move on. But while some things have changed, some things have stayed the same. Corbin and Vi can’t let each other go. They aren’t far from each other’s thoughts. So have they really moved on? It seems they haven’t. Clearly for Vi there can never be anyone that compares to the truest love of her life. Corbin still claims his little wife. He seeths at the thought of anyone touching her.

Opportunities arise. Things are about to change and they will never be the same once the truth of the last ten years is revealed.

I read Truth with my heart in my throat. There were plenty of late nights with Vi and Corbin. This book is so full of angst, heartbreak, loss… all of that, yes. But there is tremendous healing, strength and powerful enlightening moments. True love still shining just as bright as ever. The story is so well paced, so incredibly moving. I have never known a couple like these two. Their love story is so real. This isn’t just a story… could be me or you. So many touching moments, still so many belly laughs. And holy smokes! Corbin is the master of his sexual prowess. That hasn’t changed in ten years. If anything it’s even hotter! Even sexier. This man sent chills up my spine and had me running for a fan! He is sex walking. Then there’s Vi. So strong, so resilient. She’s a survivor and managed to take her horrible ordeal and turn it into something that empowered her. Damn if she didn’t make me cheer out loud for her throughout this entire story. She is Belle, Wonder Woman and Lois Lane all rolled into one!

I cannot begin to tell Kayla how much this book – in fact, this duet – meant to me. It is beautifully written, lovingly researched. It shows in every word that I read. It shows in how Vi and Corbin are still with me and how I still message Kayla to tell her how much I miss them. This is one duet you cannot miss. It is a must read! Thank you, Kayla, for letting me be a part of Vi and Corbin’s story.

Six Incredible Stars!

It’s been a decade since I divorced the love of my life, after her confession while I was deployed.
Ten years since I spoke to Vi, my soul mate, the girl who had brought me to life only to stab me in the heart, sending me into an even darker state than where I was before I met her.
Ten years, I’ve been watching her from afar, keeping tabs.
After a decade in the Army, two Purple Hearts and a Medal of Honor under my belt, I was kicked out with an honorable discharge, knowing no other skill than One Shot One Kill. Two years later, I’m part of a group of mercenaries who carry out justice. Criminals who hide behind their fancy lawyers and power—we take care of them and make it all look like karma. And with intel from our founder, Dr. Walker, a therapist with a long list of predators whose victims were too scared to turn them in, work is plenty and fulfilling.

Until Vi begins her sessions and I discover the reality I’ve lived the past ten years was nothing but a lie, when the truth is revealed.

KD Robichaux wanted to be a romance author since the first time she picked up her mom’s Sandra Brown books at the ripe old age of twelve. She went to college to become a writer, but then married and had babies. Putting her dream job on hold to raise her family as a stay at home mom, who read entirely too much, she created a blog where she could keep her family and friends up-to-date on all the hottest reads. From there, by word of mouth, her blog took off and she began using her hard-earned degree as a Senior Editor for Hot Tree Editing. When her kids started school, and with the encouragement from her many author friends, she finally sat down and started working on her first series, The Blogger Diaries, her very own real life romance.

Dirty Filthy Rich Men by Laurelin Paige

My rating: 6 of 5 stars

Sometimes you have to play dirty, and oh did Laurelin Paige take me on a deliciously dirty ride with Dirty Filthy Rich Men! Dirty Filthy Rich Men dances in the darkness but leaps towards the light, a magical mix of good and evil laced with sex and sin. This romance rages, smolders, and stings from start to finish, a tingling tale felt everywhere. Dirty Filthy Rich Men is a riveting roller coaster of a romance of tantalization and thrills…pure adrenaline-fueled addiction!

The outside world closed around me, ceasing to exist, as I was captive to the best Dirty Filthy Rich Men. I was tangled and twisted in every part of this thrilling tale from the start!
Pulse-pounding, breath-bating, mind-mesmerizing, heart-hitting, and soul-searing, Dirty Filthy Rich Men is not just a book; it’s an entrancing, electrifying and emotionally-entwined escape into another world…MY WORLD!!! I could not get enough of this deliciously dirty romance that raced through my head, as I raced to turn the pages, where I became dirty too. Dirty Filthy Rich Men was my angst…my ache…my addiction…my ALL!!!

He was a special kind of catnip.

This romance was my catnip. Dirty Filthy Rich Boys was my dark, dirty, and delicious drug…one I did not only want but NEED. I needed this story like air to breathe, as Dirty Filthy Rich Boys became my breath, branding me.

After ten years, Sabrina Lind is reunited with the dark and devilish man who stole her body and still dances in her dreams after so much time apart. Dark-haired, green-eyed, tall, and muscular Donovan Kincaid is both sinner and saint. Deliciously dirty and super rich, Donovan is the ultimate player. I did not want to like this mysterious man, but I could not help but fall hard and fast for this bad boy…scorching HOT in every way.

“The problem is that the thing you really want to stop isn’t me, it’s how you react.”

Donovan’s dominant words possessed me, lighting a fire that burned from head to toe where I MELTED like molten lava.

Sabrina and Donovan’s cat-and-mouse game was amplified, more racy and risky than ever. So THRILLING where I could not stop the surge of power from this story that permeated through me. 

I had the impulse to slap him, but it was lost when his mouth crashed against mine. Then I couldn’t think about anything but him—his hands, his body, his victory over me. It was such an easy surrender.

I could not help but combust from this fire-hot kiss that raked over my body as if I were floating over hot coals…so heated…so hot! The push and pull had me panting…wanting…needing more. The connection with Donovan and Sabrina was INTENSE, I felt it through my bones—a shiver through me—as their link was so strong that even if these two opposites were separated, the connection would be felt in spades. 

We were a set, bound together by Cellophane. It smothered, making it hard to breathe.

A thrilling and tantalizing tale of deliciously dirty players, Dirty Filthy Rich Men is a cat-and-mouse game of epic proportions, a HIGH felt all the way to the sky! Hudson may have to make room for Laurelin Paige’s most intense alpha yet!!! Donovan delivers the dark and dirty, and I want to bathe in his delicious darkness covered in dirt!

Dirty Filthy Rich Men is intense, intoxicating, and invigorating, a rush of adrenaline and angst straight to the core! This scintillating story SEDUCED ME…everywhere. I could not help but feel every word I read and live every part of this delectable and daring adventure. I LOVED this brilliant book so hard! Dirty Filthy Rich Men blazes with fire—bleeding angst— and oh did I get BURNED in what is Laurelin Paige’s best book yet!!! I still need another hit or ten of this delicious drug.

Oh Laurelin Paige! I am so addicted to this scintillating story and series that OWNS every ounce of me! So incredibly good! I could not devour this heart-stopping sexy and strong story fast enough. The plot is powerful, the characters are combustible, and the writing is off-the-charts incredible, flowing with a heady mix of feels and fire. Laurelin Paige has brought her A-game out to play in Dirty Filthy Rich Men, a gem that is as stunning as it is dirty. Oh did I love getting dirty!

When I met Donovan Kincaid, I knew he was rich. I didn’t know he was filthy. Truth be told, I was only trying to get his best friend to notice me.

I knew poor scholarship girls like me didn’t stand a chance against guys like Weston King and Donovan Kincaid, but I was in love with his world, their world, of parties and sex and power. I knew what I wanted—I knew who I wanted—until one night, their world tried to bite me back and Donovan saved me. He saved me, and then Weston finally noticed me, and I finally learned what it was to be in their world.

And then what it was like to lose it.

Ten years later, I’ve found my way back. Back to their world. Back to him.

This time, I’m ready. I’ve been down this road before, and I know all the dirty, filthy ways Donovan will try and wreck me.

But it’s hard to resist. Especially when I know how much I’ll like it.

USA Today and New York Times Bestselling Author Laurelin Paige is a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however. When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She’s also a proud member of Mensa International though she doesn’t do anything with the organization except use it as material for her bio. She is represented by Rebecca Friedman.
