Title: Beauty and the Beefcake
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Sexy Romantic Comedy

 Release Date: May 17, 2018

Blurb
There are two kinds of women in the world – those I can bang, and those
I can’t.

My teammate’s sister?

She’s a can’t.

I moved in with her to protect her from a nasty ex, not to be the next guy in
line.

She’s the brains.

I’m the brawn.

She’s the fruit.

I’m the sausage.

She talks too much.

I don’t talk at all, if I don’t have to.

Should be easy to resist her.

But every minute I spend with Felicity is another minute she gets under my
skin. She makes me feel like something more than a dumb puckhead with a big
Zamboni pony. And it’s getting harder to remember why I need to keep my hands
to myself. 

Beauty and the Beefcake is a vegan-friendly standalone romantic comedy
featuring a hockey player whose vocabulary is the only thing smaller than a
hockey puck, a book smart but aimless ventriloquist with too many voices in her
head, a dilapidated old house that may or may not be haunted, and no cheating
or cliffhangers.

My Review…

“Words are only as good as the man that uses them.” – Ares

What a fabulous introduction to a new to me author.  That quote sums up this whole beautiful, funny story.

This is a stand alone, but I found the secondary characters so amazing, I am going to go and look for her past books so I can read more about them and hope she will write about the others that don’t have a full story yet.

This story of Felicity and Ares.  Both wouldn’t be considered “normal” peeps but drawing from one of my favorite movie quotes, “Normal is a setting on a dryer”, normal is relative and for Felicity and Ares they are “normal” and perfect for each other!

Felicity is quirky, she is spunky and she has horrible taste in men (before Ares of course).  She is beyond intelligent, and academic genius but lacks a bit in the common sense department.  But all that makes for a great character, I absolutely loved her!  Even at my age, (waaayy past 27) I am still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up and it made me relate to Felicity even more!

Ares, oh my! Even though he is named after the god of war, he has the most gentle soul.  He is a man of very few words and not a lot of people really see him. But Felicity does and it’s amazing.

There chemistry is off the charts, it builds slow and steady and when they finally give into their feelings for each other it is so white hot and swoony!

This book had all the makings of a great romantic comedy! It is definitely a must read.  I am so glad I had the opportunity to read this and was introduced to the fantastic writing of Pippa! You have a new fangirl in me!

cover-powPiece of Work, an all-new sexy romance from Staci Hart, is LIVE!

Marble isn’t the only thing that’s hard at this museum.

His body is as chiseled as Adonis. His lips are as sculpted as David. And his ego is the size of the Guggenheim.

You know the type—wolfish smile and the gravity of a black hole. The kind of man who sucks all the air from the room the second he enters it. My cocky boss thinks this internship was wasted on me, and he doesn’t hesitate to let me know.

But he’s wrong, and I’m going to prove it to him. If I can stay away from his devil lips, that is. Lips that cut me down and kiss me in the same breath, leaving me certain he’s on a mission to ruin my life.

And maybe my heart.

About the Staci

StaciHartStaci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life — a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She’s been a wife, though she’s certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she’s been drinking whiskey.

From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.

My Review…

Staci’s books just amaze me, how she can come up with the stories she writes with such heart.

Piece of Work brings you into the world of art and it makes you feel like you are at the Met.

This is the story of Rin and Court. Rin is one of a kind, I really enjoyed the fact that Staci didn’t make her the “stereotypical” heroine, you know blonde hair, blue eyes and a petite 5’2″.  Staci made Rin the complete opposite and I applaud her for it!

Court was a grade A a$$hole! I really wanted to smack him when we are introduced to him, he was selfish and he kept blaming Rin for his feelings “What has she done to me?” The more I read and realized the betrayal he endured, it helped me come around.  When I saw the man he became when he was with Ren on the museum trip (not gonna say where, you have to read to find out) I fell in love with him too.

The chemistry between Court and Rin is explosive and dynamic.  I loved that Rin tried to stick to her principles and give Court the business when he deserved it. I enjoyed reading about Court coming full circle with his feelings towards Rin.

The secondary characters, especially the “Red Lipstick Coalition”, are absolutely phenomenal and I hope and pray that Staci gives more to them.  I would love to see books for every other member!

Staci has created another MUST READ masterpiece!  I have enjoyed this so much and it’s made me want to go visit a museum and appreciate art just a little bit more.

 

See My Review Below!

 

 

 

 

“What are you doing now that your team is out of the running for the Stanley Cup?”

Forget.

I need to forget. I need an escape.

Only one person isn’t falling for my reputation as the NHL’s Golden Boy; she captured my attention the minute she called me out for snooping through my best friend’s house. She didn’t want to hear my reason–she only wanted to playfully give me a hard time.

Adalyn is bold, sassy–and the perfect escape.

She’s everywhere. In town and in my dreams, and suddenly I need to spend every waking moment with her.

And I do, making this summer the best off-season I’ve ever had.

But in the midst of getting lost in Adalyn, what I don’t expect is to get her pregnant.

And what I definitely don’t expect is having to fight for her affection.

 

 

 

 

 

“Would you mind zipping up the back of my dress?” She walks toward me, her flowery scent floating in my direction, spiking my yearning into overdrive.

“Uh, yeah . . . sure.”

She turns around, and looks over her shoulder. The back of her dress is completely open, the zipper undone to just above the curve of her beautifully round ass.

Shit, all that smooth, tan skin, covered by nothing but the velvety fabric of the dress. Is she wearing underwear? She’s not wearing a bra and I see no panty line.

Clearing my throat, I ask, “Are you wearing underwear, Adalyn?”

From over her shoulder, she smiles shyly. “Yes, it’s small though.”

Of course it is. Why wouldn’t it be?

Not being able to stop myself, I take a second to float my fingertips up her spine. From the initial touch, her back arches and a small gasp releases from her lips, but before I can think about stopping, she melts into my touch. Stepping closer, I place my hand on the back of her hip, my thumb pressing into her ass while the other hand explores the bare expanse of her back. Her head falls to my shoulder. Her lips part, and when I snake to the front of her dress, her breath hitches.

Eyes closed, I take in ragged breaths, my fingers inching closer and closer to her front, my cock painfully hard.

It’s been so goddamn long—and being with Adalyn has only spurred on my need—but I want to make sure we’re in a good place before we commit to anything. I want to make sure she’s ready emotionally because the minute I bury myself deep inside her, I know there will be no turning back. She will be mine forever.

But maybe for now, I can just have a little touch . . .

My cock pressed against her butt, she expertly grinds her backside into me, her hands moving to my neck, pulling my head down to hers. I kiss the side of her neck, using the hand that’s gripping her hips to guide her with her grinding in just the right place.

Fuck, that feels good.

I grunt, the sound vibrating over her sleek neck. My hand on her stomach, she arches wanting more of my touch, silently asking me to move north.

And I fucking comply. Inch by slow inch, I guide my hand to just below her breasts. When I halt my pursuit, a displeased groan escapes her.

“Hayden, please.”

I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to find the willpower. Her fingernails dig into my scalp, spurring me on as she turns her head and finds my lips.

She kisses me.

Hot.

Wet.

Needy.

Her lips gliding across mine, her tongue diving into my mouth, her moans are vocal and sexy. Her delicious ass, pressing, grinding, undulating against my rock-hard cock makes me want to do so much more, makes me want to taste so much more.

Moving my hand higher, my fingertips graze the bottom of her breast. Soft. Round. Smooth. I caress her right below her nipple, never touching, just teasing . . . tempting.

 

 

 

 

 

Born in New York and raised in Southern California, Meghan has grown into a sassy, peanut butter eating, blonde haired swearing, animal hoarding lady. She is known to bust out and dance if “It’s Raining Men” starts beating through the air and heaven forbid you get a margarita in her, protect your legs because they may be humped.

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.

Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!

My Review…

A true testament to great writing is when the characters in books become like your friends, your tribe, your go-to peeps…

Meghan’s characters are like my lifelong friends. So when I see old friends pop up in new books, it does my heart good.

One Baby Daddy is the story of Adalyn and Hayden.  This is the third book in the Dating by the Numbers series so we were introduced to Hayden in the first book.

Meghan can write hysterically funny romances and then she writes such moving stories, like this one with just a touch of humor (because that’s who Meghan is and I love her for it).

Adalyn is just amazing, she is strong, feisty and kindhearted and truly genuine. (Borrowed from Hayden’s description, because I couldn’t have said it better) She is also loyal and a bit naive, but spectacularly so.  She is so ready to meet a person like Hayden and he was ready to meet her too.

Hayden has always been a favorite of mine, he is a true old fashioned gentleman at heart but with enough alpha in him to make you swoon. He too is loyal, fierce and isn’t afraid to go after what he wants.  He loves the slow burn and holy hell does he do it well.

I have yet to read a book by Meghan that I haven’t fallen in love with and One Baby Daddy is no exception. This is a must read, one-click, add to your to be read list immediately!

Title: Stumbling Into Him

Author: Molly O’Hare

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Release Date: May 15, 2018

 

Red Hatter Book Blog – “Stumbling Into Him is pure perfection!”

Rosa – “I have one warning though. Please be very cautious when reading this book as there will be a lot of laughing involved. This is a sweet romance and I highly recommend this book to all Rom-Com lovers.”

Sara – “I was giggling and laughing out loud throughout the entire story of Stumbling Into Him.”


Holly has spent her whole life as a walking disaster, from running into walls, tripping over invisible objects, and always being in the wrong place at the wrong time. When a seemingly normal outing taking her overly opinionated Corgi for a walk resulted in an object to the face, she didn’t think her day could get any worse. The moment she opened her eyes and saw the Adonis standing over her, she knew she’d been wrong. It was about to get a whole lot worse.

Ben’s lived his whole life disobeying his uptight, self-centered, shrew of a mother. Instead of going into the family business, he followed his dreams and opened his veterinarian clinic. One ordinary day at the dog park, and a rogue dog toy later, he found himself captivated by the curvy woman that had a feistiness which set him on fire.

It could only get better from here, right? Too bad his mother had other plans.
Much like any author out there, sleeping does not come easy to Molly. As it turns out, she has horrible insomnia . When she was younger, to help herself fall asleep she would recite stories. Each night she’d pick up where the story left off previously until the tale was complete. One morning, after she finished a particularly fun adventure, she decided she wanted to start sharing them with others. A few months later, here she is, sharing her lack of sleep with all of you. Who says the stories in our heads can’t be fun for others?
Also, she loves Fun Facts. New ones are at the end of each of her book. If you look close enough, some are hidden on her website too.

My Review…

You are a unicorn…

Well, well, well! This is my first book by Molly and let me tell you, it was sweetness personified!

This story of Holly (Grace….love the nickname!) and Ben is just, just well perfect!

I think all of us gals have a little bit of Holly in us. A bit insecure, a bit clumsy and just trying to find a place in the world.  She is my hero in every sense of the world!

Ben, well now Ben is just every gal’s dream.  Swoony, romantic and a bit of an alpha!

Ben and Holly’s first meeting is fabulously funny.  Their insta-love was sweet and magical and oh so funny!  This book is just what you need when the world is all doom and gloom! They have some curve balls thrown at them by the way of Ben’s disaster of a mother, but true love prevails!

Ben, Holly and their furry “family” get all the happily ever afters that they deserve.

I am so glad I had the opportunity to read this!  Molly you have created a new fangirl/stalker in me!  Thank you for your story!

Readers, this is a MUST read book, you will enjoy it immensely!

“Bromberg is a master at turning up the heat.”

New York Times bestselling author Katy Evans

Worth the Risk, an all-new, sexy standalone about taking chances and finding love when it’s least expected, from New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg, is LIVE!

KBROMBERG_worth_riskebook

Worth the Risk by K. Bromberg

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Publishing Date: May 15th, 2018

Cover Designer: Helen Williams

Photographer: Nicole Ashley Photography

Models: Oksana and Reydeon

Synopsis

This whole contest was supposed to be easy. I know, I know. Famous last words.

It’s a long story, but I messed up at work. Big time. To earn back the trust of my boss, I promised to save one of our magazines. Yep. That Hot Dad contest you’ve seen advertised all over the place was my idea. And if I’m successful, if I’m able to increase our online readership, then I get a shot at my dream job.

But the one thing I never expected to happen, happened: Contestant number ten, Grayson Malone. Hello, Mr. Difficult. And did I mention sexy as hell?

Unfortunately he knows me. The old me, anyway. And while we might be older now, I remind him of before. Of the woman who broke his heart, who hardened him, and who left him alone to raise the cutest little boy I’ve ever seen.

But I don’t want a relationship. And I definitely don’t fall for single dads with baggage. Even ones with chiseled abs and killer smiles.

But he got to me. They got to me. Him and his son and their messy, crazy life. But I got to him too. I see the stolen glances. I feel the walls he built start to crumble. I recognize that there’s an unexpected beauty to the chaos in his life.

And now that the contest is about to end, we’re left to decide whether the last six months were just fun or if what we have is worth risking it all?

About K. Bromberg

K. Bromberg Author PhotoNew York Times Bestselling author K. Bromberg writes contemporary novels that contain a mixture of sweet, emotional, a whole lot of sexy, and a little bit of real. She likes to write strong heroines, and damaged heroes who we love to hate and hate to love.

Since publishing her first book in 2013, Kristy has sold over one million copies of her books across sixteen different countries and has landed on the New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists over twenty-five times. Her Driven trilogy (Driven, Fueled, and Crashed) is currently being adapted for film by Passionflix with the first movie slated to release in the summer of 2018.

She is currently working on her Everyday Heroes trilogy. This series consists of three complete standalone novels—Cuffed, Combust, and Cockpit (late spring 2018)—and is about three brothers who are emergency responders, the jobs that call to them, and the women who challenge them.

My Review…

– never go in search of love, go in search of life, and life will find the love you seek – Atticus

I have been a fan of K. Bromberg since forever.

Worth the Risk is just another jewel in the crown of her successes!

This story of Sidney and Grayson is spectacular.  A shared history of growing up in the same town but as time goes on, they change is such different ways.

Sidney grew up with great privilege and wealth and as a child she was a product of that. But K. elegantly shows how much Sidney has changed since then and is becoming a better person, but still has roots of big city living and jet setting trips.

Grayson, oh Grayson….such a beautiful mess he is.  He has been hurt so badly that he has used any excuse necessary to  keep himself from getting hurt again and it has worked for years.  Until Sidney comes back into town…

The chemistry between these two is WHITE hot!  From their first interaction to the last it’s just whew!! Can I just say that Grayson’s dirty talk and texts are “da bomb!”

The angst is on point! Not to much to make you want to scream and stop reading but just enough to keep you turning the pages and cheering them on!

The secondary characters are phenomenal and really help the story flow.

In my humble opinion, K has yet to write a book that I haven’t fallen in love with and with this story that love affair lives on!

Thank you for your stories and your words!

My Review…

I am really glad to have been introduced to Carly Phillips!

Breathe is the second book in the Rosewood Bay series.  I can truly say this can be read as a standalone, I haven’t read the first book and I was able to get into this story just fine.

This story of Phoebe and Jake is just lovely.  It has some angst but not overbearing and it flows so smoothly.

Phoebe has had some hard scrabble beginnings in her life and by a horrible twist of fate she is pregnant at 16. She has grown to become independent, loyal and fiercely protective of her son.

Jake to has had a rough childhood and he was able to find some solace with Phoebe when they were younger but that dadsterly fate stepped in again and separated them.  Even after the years have gone by, he has never forgotten nor lost his love for Phoebe.  But life goes on and things change, but his love stays in the back of his mind.

The swoons in this book are perfect! The romance and steam are fabulous and yet again I have really enjoyed another book by Carly!

Read this book and you will fall in love with the folks of Rosewood Bay!

Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: May 15, 2018
Blurb
From USA
Today
 bestselling author Willow Winters comes a heart pounding,
edge-of-your-seat gripping, romantic suspense.
I should’ve known she would ruin me the moment I saw her.

Women like her are made to destroy men like me.

Given to me to start a war; I was too eager to accept.

I didn’t
know what she’d do to me.

She sees through me in a way no one else ever has.

Her innocence and vulnerability make me weak for her and I hate it.

I know better than to give in to temptation.  I should have known that she
would change everything.A ruthless man doesn’t let a soul close to him.

A cold-hearted man doesn’t risk anything for anyone.

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…

New branding and new stories from the fantastic W Winters!

Merciless, the story of Carter and Aria is dark, twisted and oh so good.  Like a piece of devils food cake, rich and decadent.

There is such mystery in the story, right from the start and Ms. Winters lets you have just little nibbles of it, making you want more and more.

Aria is sheltered, but she doesn’t realize how much she was until she is given to Carter.

Carter blames her in his own twisted way of becoming the man that he is, but was she really? You need to read this story to find out.

The relationship that develops between Carter and Aria is mind bending and oh so steamy! You can feel the desperation in Aria and the patience in Carter.

Readers will get a surprise at the end that you won’t see coming and it will grab you and hold on until Ms. Winters is ready to let you go.

This is a page turner, this is a story you need to read slowly and savor so you don’t miss anything!
