CREOLE KINGPIN
by Meghan March
Book Synopsis
New York Times bestselling author Meghan March goes back to New Orleans and the world of Lachlan Mount with a dangerous and bold new anti-hero.
The thing about ghosts is they’re supposed to stay dead. That’s exactly what I am, but I can’t stay away from Magnolia Marie Maison for one more day, let alone another year. We’ve already got fifteen of those between us. As it stands, she’ll want to kill me as soon as she lays eyes on me. And knowing her, she’s completely up to the task. But I’m a man on a mission, and I’ve got everything riding on this. So, here I come, Magnolia. This ghost is ready for whatever you got. After all, there’s only one way I want this to end—’til death do us part. |

My ReviewUndoubtedly the fiercest heroine I've ever read, Magnolia is a force to be reckoned with! I knew she was a spitfire from glimpses in previous books, but it was beyond thrilling to see her story come to fruition.
What was tension between two ex-lovers soon became so much more. As a mystery unfolded I was on the edge of my seat having no clue as to what was about to happen. The character of Moses, one who I loathed in the Legend Series became a character I was cheering on throughout this book until its final pages. While this story's heroine was one I loved from other previous works by March, her stubbornness and her hilarious way of talking to herself made this book outstanding. Along with her story I was dying to finally get more of; this was truly a book unlike other March titles before. Meghan remains a writing dynamo! She is purely magic at her ability to intertwine characters from different series and worlds, so subtly, that the reader doesn't even see it coming, making the stories even brighter. As Always, Happy Reading! |
OVERNIGHT SERVICE
by Lauren Blakely
Book Synopsis
Top three reasons why sleeping with the enemy is a bad idea...
1. She’s my fiercest rival. 2. She’s also my fiery ex. 3. We’re going up against each other in a stiff competition to win the hottest new client on the market. And yet, I’d like to be up against the wall in a stiff competition to get her to call out my name. Time to double down on my resistance to her tough-as-nails, take-no-prisoners, sexy-as-sin attitude. The same attitude that I find irresistible. That’s the big problem, because in this race to nab the client I run into Haven in the hotel, on the beach, in the guest quarters late at night. Hate sex would be a terrible idea. Except, it’s the complete opposite, and now we can’t keep our hands off each other. Trouble is, I’m not so sure it’s hate I’m feeling anymore. And that’s the biggest reason sleeping with the enemy you’re falling for is a bad idea -- my job literally depends on never letting her into my heart. |
|
My ThoughtsGrabbed from the beginning with laughter and light heartedness, Blakely has penned another rom-com that was sweet and fun.
Josh and Haven sparked with great competitive nature which in turn turned up the heat in the race between two characters who love to hate one another. If you enjoy flirty fun, second-chance romances, with a healthy dose of competitive heat, this book is for you! As Always, Happy Reading! |
WILD STEAMY HOOK-UP
by Piper Rayne
Book Synopsis
He’s the quiet brooding guy who’s owned my heart since I was sixteen but has refused to claim it.
I’m the naïve woman who believes that someday our time will come. I just didn’t realize that someday would include waking up in Vegas with a raging hangover and a ring on my finger. If we believed in fate, maybe one of us would’ve trusted that something more powerful than ourselves interceded because our love is one of tangled vines. As twisted and frayed as they’ve become over the years, they’ve never broken. An annulment seemed like the easy way out. We should’ve known it wouldn’t be fate that intervened, but our Italian Mamas. They can deliver Oscar-worthy performances when heaping on the guilt. We thought it’d be easy to pretend to be a happily married couple in front of our families for three months and then say we gave it our best shot and go our separate ways. But nothing is easy when it comes to Dominic Mancini and me. Nothing. |

My Review
One word that describes this story to a tee - Dynamite! Full of humor and heart, characters Val and Dom will steal your heart, as you watch their story of longtime love materialize.
Unlike so many other stories this novel finally featured characters in their late 30’s searching for love which was not only refreshing but something I for one have craved for a long time. Dominic Mancini proved to be one irresistible, albeit frustrating character, and one hell of a way to end the Mancini Brothers story-line. If you are looking for some good ole Italian family drama, sizzling chemistry, and a story with a roller-coaster of emotions, look no further than this Wild Steamy Hook-Up. As Always, Happy Reading! |

My Review
If you have been following the adventures of the Bailey family, you know that there is always a lot going on. So when one of the spirited twin boys of the family is faced with a former one night stand, and is told he is the father of a baby girl, things get even more exciting for this close-knit family!
Without divulging the identity of the Bailey twin who is shocked with news that he is a father, I can say without a doubt that you will fall head over heels for him as he steps up to the plate and embraces his new responsibilities as a family man. New comer to the Lake Starlight community, Harely is not only a caring mother willing to do anything for her baby girl, but she is a survivor and a character that I adored from the minute I got to know her. With quick wits, a strong will, and tenacity in spades, she fits right in with the Bailey clan. As Harely and the unnamed Baby Daddy begin to parent their adorable little girl, the Bailey’s and Lake Starlight alike begin to rally around the two parents to help out - after all it takes a village. With laugh out loud moments, sizzling chemistry, and endearingly touching moments that will stay with the reader long after the book is over, this has been one of my favorite titles from Piper Rayne. So if you are looking to stay in with a book for a night, take this one to bed with you! As Always, Happy Reading! |

My Review
Never in my life have I wished I could be texting a guy like I did while reading this book! Full of brilliant humor, smart talking wit and realism that had a charm that is hard to find in many books, this book had it all.
Without giving too much away about the lead characters, let me just say that I was completely smitten with everything about this book. As an author that is new to me, Teagan created a wonderful escape from my own life with her bright characters and off the charts humor. This is for sure one author that I will be one-clicking from now on! As far as this title, let’s just say if the lead of this book asked me to text him one more time... I think I would have to! As Always, Happy Reading! |
