FALLING FOR MY BROTHER'S BEST FRIEND

by Piper Rayne

Book Synopsis

Let’s say you’re an independent, self-sufficient woman who runs the family company and you find yourself falling for your little brother’s best friend. Now, more than ever, you need to count all the reasons why you need to abandon falling.

Abandon Falling #1 – He’s a womanizer. Hasn’t had a serious relationship a day in his life and changes women more often than he changes his sheets.

Abandon Falling #2 – He’s never serious. He cracks one-liners, mostly at your expense.

Abandon Falling #3 – When things go wrong, he seems unfazed and always remains in control. It’s so annoying.

Abandon Falling #4 – He has tattoos. Lots of them. Everywhere. Not to mention, he owns a tattoo parlor. (Damn it! Why doesn’t that sound like a bad thing anymore?)

Abandon Falling #5 – There’s a growing list of how different you two are. You can’t get along for fifteen minutes—a lifetime together would land one of you in prison.

Keep repeating those reasons and drown yourself in work. Pretend you don’t notice his good qualities or how enticing he looks without a shirt, and do not, I repeat, do not agree to live with the man while your place is being repaired from flood damage.

Trust me, even the strongest of us can only forego temptation for so long.

My Review

I've died and gone to heaven.  Just when I thought Piper and Rayne couldn't write another more delicious male lead I was wrong! Liam Kelly was well worth the wait!

Lake Star Light oh how we have missed you. The story that the fans of the Bailey family have been waiting for is finally here and so much better than anyone could have dreamed.

Liam and Savannah’s story was what readers of romance live for. It had all the angst, all of the swoon-worthy goodness, and the heat that might make you fear for the safety of your e-reader.

This has quickly become my favorite Bailey sibling story and once you read it I am sure you will understand why.  So what are you waiting for?  Grab your copy so you can enjoy this quirky little piece of Alaska with me!

As Always, Happy Reading!

A LIE FOR A LIE

by Helena Hunting

Book Synopsis

Sometimes I need an escape from the demands, the puck bunnies, and the notoriety that come with being an NHL team captain. I just want to be a normal guy for a few weeks. So when I leave Chicago for some peace and quiet, the last thing I expect is for a gorgeous woman to literally fall into my lap on a flight to Alaska. Even better, she has absolutely no idea who I am.

Lainey is the perfect escape from my life. My plan for seclusion becomes a monthlong sex fest punctuated with domestic bliss. But it ends just as abruptly as it began. When I’m called away on a family emergency, I realize too late that I have no way to contact Lainey.

A year later, a chance encounter throws Lainey and me together again. But I still have a lie hanging over my head, and Lainey’s keeping secrets of her own. With more than lust at stake, the truth may be our game changer.

My Review

Thoughtful, endearing, and funny, this story was an absolute delight to devour.  As a fan of Hunting’s work through the years my expectations for another hockey book were a bit high but I can gladly say that she did not disappoint!

While Lainey and RJ’s immediate connection and off the charts chemistry kept my eyes glued to the pages of my book, their story was also full of heart, humor and had me fully engaged right until the end. 

Cameo visits from some of the most cherished characters in the Pucked Series also gave this book a bit of a blast from the past feel and added another dose of humor to an already almost near perfect read.

As Always, Happy Reading!

THE PLAY - BRIAR U #3

by Elle Kennedy

Book Synopsis

What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate…no matter how hard that makes things.

But there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t be friends with a woman. And I won’t lie—my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she’s got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her.

Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound.

And she’s making a play for me.

Avoiding her is impossible. We’re paired up on a yearlong school project, but I’m confident I can resist her. We’d never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts.

Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body—and my heart.

My Review

Attention all Briar U Fans!! Elle Kennedy has just scored a Hat Trick with the third installment in the Briar U Series with The Play. 

As a longtime fan of Kennedy I knew she would never write anything to disappoint.  Hunter and Demi were simply a dream come true.  Watching their quirky friendship unfold while so many other details lead the way for each of the characters to be developed so fully and robust made for a story which was simply out of this world.

Full of witty banter and amazing chemistry with a deep rooted story about far more than love, Kennedy has penned another hit.  Just when you thought that the Briar U series could not get any better – it has! 

As Always, Happy Reading!
