★★★

In life you’re lead to believe that soulmates can appear in the most unlikely of places. You’ll meet a handsome stranger and know in that single moment he’s who you were meant to be with.

They’ll be your forever.

That wasn’t my story with Carter. Our love wasn’t instant and our demise seemed inevitable.

But then Nate enters my life when I least expect it and begins to battle the reinforced walls around my heart.

Is it possible I could be destined for two great loves when some people can search their whole lives and never find one?

It’s easier said than done to forgive and forget and I keep asking myself the same question over and over.

Is love really worth it?

FOOL ME ONCE is a complete standalone with a whole bunch of angsty love triangle goodness.

The Glue

by K Webster
Publication Date: September 5, 2018
Genres: Taboo Treat

Purchase: Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon CA

I’m a fixer. A lover. Always searching for the right fit.
And I come up empty every time.
My desires are unusual.
I don’t feel whole until I’m in the middle, holding it all together.
Which makes having a romantic relationship really difficult.

Until them.
Two people. An unraveling marriage. Love on the rocks.
And they want me.
To put them back together again.

Problem is, once they’re fixed, where does that leave me?
I sure as hell hope I stick like glue.

***This story is MMF.***

My Review…

Taboo World…

Gaaahhhh!! I love K. Webster’s Taboo World.

I love how she pulls me out of my comfort zone with her stories and makes me melt!  This is a first story for me with this type of relationship and it blew me away! I caught myself actually envious of them!

The Glue is the story of commitment, of love and no boundaries.  Their relationship is magic! Their chemistry is holy hell hot!

What I really admire about Ms. Webster’s stories is that in this world she has created, love is accepted in all forms.  There may be some hiccups along the way but no matter what, every character in this story, and every story in her Taboo World stories, are accepted, embraced and loved even harder.

This story is fast paced and a page turner. A small delicious morsel of a book!  The dedication was laugh out loud funny and so totally K.!

Be prepared to swoon, sigh and fall in love with this story! I sure did!

Be What Love Is

by Ellie Malouff
Publication Date: October 1, 2018
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Preorder: Amazon | iBooks | Barnes & Noble | Kobo

Ellie Malouff returns with a smashing standalone contemporary romance novel that was named a finalist for the 2018 Stiletto Contest and 2018 Molly Contest. On October 1, travel across the Atlantic with Cara Montgomery when she inherits an English estate with a devilishly handsome Brit.

Reid Lewis is handsome, successful, and every bit the English gentleman. Years spent in England’s finest boarding schools will do that.

Cara Montgomery is a California girl through and through, even if she was born across the pond. As a struggling graduate student, she works part-time at a coffee house, slinging espresso for San Diego’s
caffeine addicted.

When these two strangers are named the sole beneficiaries of a substantial English estate that rivals Pemberley, their worlds collide and tensions flare. They couldn’t be more different. Cara’s got a flair for Mexican food, books, and leggings. Reid is as posh as they come and a regular on the black-tie gala scene.

Against Reid’s better judgment, he agrees to stay and play house with Cara so she can search not only for keepsakes from her childhood but for the family secrets that have been hidden from her all her life.

Spending the summer together in a Somerset mansion isn’t what either of them had in mind, but it has its perks, especially when the person you want beyond reason is living under the same roof.

Title: Breathless

Series: Merciless Saga #3

Author: Willow Winters
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: September 4, 2018
Blurb
From USA Today bestselling author W Winters comes an emotionally captivating and thrilling, romantic suspense.

 

Her lips tasted like Cabernet and her touch was like fire.

I was blinded by what she did to me. I so easily fell for something I thought I’d never have.

I was weak for her and should’ve known better. I should’ve known she could never love a man like me.

She brought out a side of me that I wish had stayed dead.

I won’t make the same mistake twice.

I don’t care how much she begs me.

I don’t care that I crave her more than anything else…

Author Bio
Willow Winters is so happy to be a USA Today, Wall Street Journal and #1 Contemporary Bestselling Romance Author. She likes her action hot and her bad boys hotter. She certainly doesn’t hold back on either one in her writing!Willow started writing after having her little girl, Evie, December 2015. All during her pregnancy with Evie she continued to read and she only wanted to read romance. She was reading a book a day — sometimes two.

In January 2016 Willow was staying up late with Evie and just thinking of all these stories. They came to her constantly so she finally sat down and just started writing. She always wanted to do it so she figured, why not? Today Willow cannot be happier for making that decision!

 

My Review…

Holy smokin hot! I am so in love with this series!

Breathless is the third book in Carter and Aria’s story and it picks up right where Heartless left off!

I would highly encourage you to read this story slowly.  Ms. Winter is throwing out new clues left and right.  I have my theories of a major twist coming.  But I am not going to spoil it and tell you! How mean would that be?!?

Aria is being torn apart, between her loyalty to her family and her loyalty to Carter. It is painful to read, and Ms. Winter does it so well! I also applaud how much stronger Aria is becoming in this story and series.  She is no delicate flower to keep behind glass and walls, not to see the sun.  She is no fragile songbird that needs to be kept in a cage! I cannot wait to see what becomes of her in the next story in this series!  She is gonna be a true queen, I can feel it!

Carter, oh how I hate and love him! He is also being torn apart.  I hate that he is keeping his feeling for Aria so close to him.  I can understand the distrust, especially after this story, but I feel so much could be accomplished if he just told Aria how he truly feels.

I will be waiting desperately for the next book in this series!! It is must read series!

Book Description
Jalynn
I’m the girl who’s always picking up the pieces of other people’s mistakes.
Until tonight.
I accidentally cause one false start, and now I’m being pulled into a guy’s car—who everyone only knows as Falcon—before an illegal street race.
He may not want anyone to truly know who he is, but he’s met his match.
Game on, Falcon.
Austin
People know I run these races.
They know not to mess with me, or my car.
When the identity of the girl who causes a false start is revealed, I have to make an example of her.
Letting her see who I am was never the plan.
Neither was running into her the next day as my brother’s new assistant.
She said she wanted nothing to do with me, but when I yank her into a janitor’s closet, making sure she keeps my secret is the last thing on my mind.
She may want more than my secrets, but my racing may be the last thing I try to hide.

About TEN REASONS TO STAY

One day a week—Thursdays—my husband and I could do whatever or whomever we pleased.

Protection was non-negotiable.

And no matter what, we had to be home by midnight.

Jack was the one who wanted an open marriage, but we were supposed to keep things simple. No strings. No commitments. It seemed so easy…until it wasn’t.

Devilishly handsome Cole Blackwater was only supposed to be a fling, but everything about him made me feel alive. Wanted. Seen. When I realized he was my husband’s boss, I should have broken things off right then…but I didn’t.

One day a week, I could pretend that I was his and he was mine…until Cole wanted more.

But how could I decide between the man I’d promised to love, honor, and cherish, and the man who tempted me to break every single vow I’d made?

EWTallDarkIrresistibleCover5x8_MEDIUM

When it comes to love and happily ever after, Leo Stone is a disbeliever. Having been left at the altar by the one woman he thought he’d spend the rest of his life with, he’s vowed to keep his heart to himself and enjoy the one thing he knows won’t affect his emotions . . . hot, dirty sex. Except, what’s a guy to do when a gorgeous woman asks him to be her stand-in boyfriend for two weeks—with benefits? Sign him up, please!

A drunken night one year ago, Peyton Bishop used Leo Stone’s name and photograph to convince her overprotective parents that she was safe living in New York City—in part thanks to a boyfriend she adored. Except Leo, the hot guy she’s had a secret crush on since college, has no idea he’s been cast in the role of her lover. With her cousin’s wedding coming up, and her parent’s expecting to meet this mysterious boyfriend, Peyton is forced to come clean and ask Leo a huge favor.

Leo agrees to be her stand-in boyfriend, but what’s a pretend couple to do when their fake feelings start to become oh-so-real?

Excerpt:

The two of them reached Leo’s vehicle, and the doors unlocked with a chirp as he pressed the key fob in his free hand. But instead of opening the passenger side for Peyton, he instead turned her around to face him . . . trapping her between the unyielding metal surface of the car behind her and the tall, muscular man standing less than two feet away.

He casually placed a hand on the door beside her and leaned a few inches closer. “Before we go, I have one more question for you,” he said, his tone serious.

She inhaled the warm, masculine scent of his cologne mingling with leather from his jacket and tried not to let that intoxicating fragrance distract her. “Okay.” She figured it couldn’t get any worse than everything she’d already admitted.

“So, usually, when a person gets propositioned, they get something out of the deal,” he said, his heavy-lidded gaze dropping to her mouth. “You’d be getting a devoted boyfriend out of the arrangement. What would I get?”

She didn’t miss the suggestion in his eyes or the playful curve of his smile. “What do you want?” she asked, unable to hide the breathless quality of her voice.

“Well, for starters, how about a show of good faith, like a kiss?” His free hand came up and gently cupped the side of her face, while his thumb skimmed along her damp bottom lip. “I think it’s important to know what I might be getting myself into and if we’re compatible enough to pull off this whole pretend boyfriend/girlfriend thing. I mean, what if we kiss and we realize that there’s just no spark there? Then this whole farce is doomed for failure.”

He was teasing her. She could see the mischievous glimmer in his eyes, and it provoked a smile from her, even as her breathing escalated with every second that passed with the temptation of finally having Leo’s lips pressed against hers dangling like a carrot in front of her.

“Then kiss me so we can find out,” she whispered.

His thumb dipped down beneath her chin to tip her head back as he lowered his mouth to hers. His lips were surprisingly soft as they found hers for the first time, his teeth gentle as they nibbled at her bottom lip. She couldn’t hold back the needy moan that escaped her throat, or the way her hands instinctively lifted and settled against his solid chest even as he pressed closer to her, his hard thighs and hips pinning her against the car.

“Jesus,” he breathed against her lips in shock, clearly feeling the heat between them that was a spark on the verge of becoming an undeniable blaze.

Sliding both of his hands into her hair, he held her head steady as he came back for another taste, and this time, there wasn’t an ounce of gentleness in the way he swept his tongue inside and plundered her mouth—boldly, deeply, greedily. She made a wild, desperate sound as she fisted her hands in his cotton T-shirt and matched him kiss for kiss, turning that blaze into an inferno that was so hot it threatened to singe them both. And in the moment, neither one of them seemed to care.

She felt the unmistakable ridge of his erection nudging against her belly, and a new hunger spiraled tighter inside her. Desire made her knees weak, her nipples excruciatingly hard, and her panties wet. Everything about Leo Stone was sensation overload to every part of her body, and if there was any worry in either of their minds about pulling off a believable attraction, this kiss eliminated any and all concerns.

By the time Leo finally lifted his mouth from hers, they were both breathing hard from all the heightened sexual tension between them. His dark eyes glittered with lust as he gazed down at her, looking as dazed as she felt.

Somehow, someway, she found her voice. “Was that convincing enough for you?” she asked huskily.

His low, sexy chuckle made her shiver. “Oh, yeah . . . it was definitely a good start.”

Title: Pushing Arlo
Series: Heartless Few #3
Author: MV Ellis

Publisher: Hot Tree Publishing

Genre: Rock Star Romance

Release Date: September 1, 2018

Blurb

He thought he
had it all, until he met her.

They say you don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone, but for notorious womanizer Arlo Jones, it’s a case of not knowing what you want ’til it’s standing in front of you. The moment he meets London, he realizes she’s the piece of the puzzle he never knew was missing, but can’t live without. He does everything he can to get her, but just as he thinks she’s finally ready to give in to her feelings, he’s reminded how empty his life was without her in it.
She thought she had a plan, until she met him.

 

They say the best-laid plans often go awry, and for aspiring photographer London Llwellyn, that’s definitely the case when she falls for Arlo. That was never part of her plan. She tries her best to avoid being pulled into his vortex, but he manages to turn her head upside down and her heart inside out. Just as she thinks she’s ready to commit to forever, she’s reminded of the reasons she resisted him for so long.
He’s pulling her closer. How long can she keep pushing him away?

My Review…

Whew! What a conclusion to this series!

The story of Arlo and London.  Told from Arlo’s POV.

As I was reading, I was applauding Arlo’s transformation.  He had a real redemption.  I wanted to smack London upside the head with her stubbornness! I would have really enjoyed to see a peek into London’s thinking, maybe a chapter or two from her POV.  To get a real understanding what was going through her head.

Through trials and tribulations.  You can feel the heartbreak and the determination of Arlo as he becomes the man that he feels deserves to be with London.  He is smart, he is stubborn and he is so swoony, you really see the romance come out of him in this story.

This story and the others before it are fantastic! I can really see Ms. Ellis going places in the author world!

Get your hands on this!!

Title: Hot Heir
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Sexy Romantic Comedy

 Release Date: August 31, 2018

Blurb

 

If I had to pick a bride of convenience, my first choice would NOT be Peach Maloney.
My fiftieth choice would NOT be Peach.
Top spot on my list of occupational hazards? Yes. 
Royal pain in the ass?  Yes.
A bride of convenience? No.
But I’ve unexpectedly gone from royal bodyguard to monarch, having inherited a crown that was stolen from my family long before my birth. The kicker of this unexpected royal gift? In order to take the throne I must find a wife.
Have I mentioned Peach would NOT have been my hundredth choice? But I’ve no other options, and she needs a favor that my new position can fulfill quite nicely. So we’ve agreed to play the doting newlyweds out in public.
In private, though, our rules are simple: 
No touching.
No talking.
And certainly no sex.
I should have known better than to marry a rule-breaking pain in the arse.

My Review…

Ms. Grant is such a humorous writer!

Hot Heir is the story of Peach and Viktor.  A thin line between love and hate is the theme.

Peach is a self made woman, scarred, a bit flawed and responsible for her younger half-sister, her hellion of half-sister.

Viktor, bodyguard turned king.  He has an orderly life, then Peach blows into his world.

The dialogue is fast paced and funny.  The secondary characters are fantastic and bring so much more to the story.  It was nice to read up on past characters too.

Peach and Viktor’s chemistry is magical! Their personalities so complement each other.  There are some bumps along the way, but when they finally realize the depths of their feelings for each other….well wowza! So, so, steamy and romantical!

Pippa’s story are a breath of fresh air! So funny, quick to read and so worth the time to sit down and enjoy it!

Can’t wait to see what Pippa has up her sleeve next!!
