Blurb:
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 I find irresistible.

That’s a 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.

Excerpt:
Her hand slides down my back, and it feels reverent. Her touch does so many things to me. It turns me on, it riles me up, and it sends me soaring. And now, it makes my heart thunder like a wild animal in my chest. One that wants to be with her, next to her, beside her.

“More,” I whisper. “Give me more of your kisses.”

“Take them all,” she tells me.

I am ravenous for her. I don’t know if I will ever be sated.

Not with her scent in my head, her body curled around me, and her kisses on my lips and in my soul.

We might have come in here for one final hurrah, but as we kiss like we can’t ever get enough, this doesn’t feel like the last time for either of us. It doesn’t seem like the end run down the slopes.

I should keep that thought to myself. But when I’m with her, when she’s close like this, I can’t think rationally. It’s too hard to lie or to pretend like she’s the enemy.

My rival, yes.

The competition, yes.

But she’s also the woman I can’t quit.

The woman I don’t want to quit.

My Review…

I am soooo loving this series from Ms. Blakely.  I love the cast of characters and the world she created with them!

Overnight Service is Josh and Haven’s story.  A thin line between love and hate is what this story is all about. This story is filled with humor, heat and oh the swoons!

Josh and Haven both have that competitive edge that nearly broke them.  Their constant need to “hate” each other is what fuels them to be the best sports agents around.

Haven is a powerhouse, she is a kick-a$$ woman breaking the glass ceiling in a male-dominated workplace. I also applaud her openness and her upfrontness about what her favorite things are and the man that can give it to her!

Josh is a powerhouse in his own right, he also sees the misogynistic ways of the people he works for and with.  That really messes with his head and his heart.  His feelings for Haven is what motivates him and that’s what makes him especially swoony!

Another stellar story set in a fantastic world!  Well done Ms. Blakely, well done!

You know what they say…

All’s fair in the game of love and war—especially the heartbreaks.

Landon & Shay: Part One, an all-new must read enemies to lovers romance by Brittainy C. Cherry, is available now!

Shay Gable hated my guts, and I hated hers, too.

We went out of our way to avoid one another at all times. When she came my direction, I went the other. When we locked eyes, she’d turn and walk away.

All of that changed the day I was presented with a challenge. It started out as a stupid bet: make Shay fall in love with me before I fell in love with her first.

That was an easy bet for me to win.

I didn’t love, I hardly liked.

Yet slowly the game started to shift. Shay made me crave things I never knew I wanted like love, happiness, and her.

The closer we grew, the more she challenged my darkness, and the parts I kept locked away.

The hurts.

The pains.

The truth.

The game between us became too real, our feelings intermixed, and the risks of hurting one another grew higher.

But you know what they say…

All’s fair in the game of love and war—especially the heartbreaks.

My Review…

“A penny for your thoughts…A nickel for your time…a quarter for your heart…A dollar to make you mine…”

Ms. Cherry, you have done it again.  You have wrecked my heart and made it whole again. Your story has touched my soul and made me see that you are not alone in the world.

This story of Landon and Shay was full of issues that made me cry, made me laugh and yes even brought more of an understanding to myself and those around me.  This story touched me on a personal level and shone a light on subjects that have been in the dark for far too long.

This is a story of friendships, a story of heartbreak.  This is also a story of love, redemption and hope, above all else hope.

I can understand why Ms. Cherry decided that Landon and Shay couldn’t be contained to just one book….this story deserves and demands to be more.

You have to read this story slowly, you will see the writing on the wall, you will see the twist if you really look and it’s gonna break you all over again.  But as Mima says “Be brave, my love. Be strong. Be kind. And stay” Stay with this story till the very end.

But most importantly….“Go slow”  (The quotes in this story will stay with me for a long, long time)

My Review…

A fairy tale with a K. Webster spin?!? Count me in!

Cold queen is the twisted and hot as hades tale of Elzira and Ryke. Two opposing monarchs of kingdoms clashing over land and power.

Elzira is the cold queen, she is deadly, she is fierce and she is also dying.  Her condition is baffling to her and her kingdom, but is it truly all as it seems?

Ryke is the fiery king.  He too is deadly and fierce, he lays claim to the cold castle and its queen.  He sees the truth inside the cold walls and will burn down the world to show Elzira the truth.

This is a fast-paced read, I couldn’t put it down from start to finish! Ms. Webster creates a world that is brutal and yet swoony as all get out! A wicked combination to be sure!

Get your hands on this story and be consumed by both fire and ice!

Excerpt

Copyright @2019 by RC BOLDT

SIMONE

Present Day

The Super Bowl Halftime Performance

Hard Rock Stadium

Miami Gardens, Florida

Facing what’s estimated to be over sixty-seven thousand people with my favorite guitar strapped snug against me, I prepare to sing my final song.

Standing up here in front of thousands of fans is second nature. I performed in countless dive bars before breaking onto the scene and securing my first record deal, then moving on to sold-out world tours. Which means I shouldn’t have sweaty palms like a preteen working up the nerve to talk to her crush.

My heart shouldn’t be racing like a horse competing in the Kentucky Derby.

My stomach shouldn’t churn as though I’ve eaten ceviche from a questionable food truck.

Tremors shouldn’t affect my hands like a virgin embarking on their deflowering.

None of this should be afflicting me. But it is.

Because of him.

Because of the current state of my heart.

But this is how I deal with heartache. With tragedy. With…life.

“This is a little different, and I hope you like it,” I rasp into the mic. Noise from the cheering fans is deafening, and like every time I perform, the surreal quality never quite fades.

Tonight marks the first time I’ll share a song I wrote about someone who eviscerated my heart entirely. My other relationships—and subsequent failures—pale in comparison.

It’s no secret that love and broken hearts inspire great songwriting. With regard to the latter, it’s never hard to find someone mourning an unrequited love, suffering heartache, or wishing they’d find their own glorified everlasting love.

But have you noticed when male musicians write about it,
they’re never on the receiving end of the snide, sarcastic comments of, “Oh,
poor thing. He’s rich and famous and can’t find love. Boo-freaking-hoo.”?

Yet when I write lyrics that are the closest thing to
ripping out my heart and putting it on display for the world, I receive the
“She’s probably selfish and put her career first” or “She probably cheated, and
now she’s regretting it” or “Mm. So sad. The Ice Princess of Pop is
heartbroken.”

My response? Fuck that noise. I’m writing from my heart and soul, regardless of how damaged they might be at any given time. And as long as my fans continue to support me, I’m going to keep on keepin’ on.

“I’d like to dedicate this song to a special person.” I duck my chin, willing myself to maintain composure. “It’s called ‘Embers.’”

Once I strum the first note on my guitar, everything around me fades. My voice emerges from the shards scattered within my chest where my working heart once was.

When I play that final chord, I see tears streaming down the faces of the fans in the front rows. And yet again, I’m reminded of something all too easily forgotten. That there are others who can relate to lyrics written from my soul’s breath.

Because in heartache, we’re never truly alone.

My Review…

R.C Boldt has magic to her words.  She brings more magic with this story of Kane and Simone.

Simone is the “Ice Princess of Pop” but she is so much more.  She is an admirable character with an inner strength and fortitude.  I loved her fragile heart and what she does for her inner circle of people she loves.

Kane is nursing heartbreak.  He needs to get away from his current world and gets the opportunity to protect Simone.

This is a lovely written story about two scarred hearts who find solace in each other.  This is also the story of trust and preconceived notions that tend to lead to the wrong conclusions.

The chemistry between Kane and Simone is like a house on fire. I loved the bit of the slow burn and the friendship that started it all.  It was lovely to see Kane realize all the different layers of Simone.  It was also lovely to see Simone work at trusting Kane into her inner circle.

This wouldn’t be an R.C. Boldt story without a bit of angst and some sadness.  This story gave me all the feels! It will give you all the feels too.

The secondary characters are phenomenal and bring even more dimension and charm to the story.

Another stellar story by Ms. Boldt! Get your hands on this!

ABOUT ROUGH SKETCH:

This crazy-hot enemies-to-lovers standalone novella pits boss lady Neera Malik against arrogant artist Gus Guillmand, and they fight dirrrrrty.

SYNOPSIS: 

Smart, successful, and sitting pretty at the top of her game, Neera Malik has it all figured out.

Save for the small issue of Gustavo Guillmand.

The artist with a cult—and Instagram—following has a problem and it’s not his preference for shirtless selfies. 

No, he has an attitude problem, a minding his own business problem, an infuriatingly sexy problem. 

They can’t stand each other and they can’t stay away from each other. 

My Review…

Talbott’s Cove

I just love revisiting Talbott’s cove. And this fast, dirty and sassy story of Neera and Gus is just the fix I needed!

The flow of Neera and Gus’s relationship is sharp and jagged, but also so, so perfect for the two of them.

I loved Gus’s determination to get Neera and to give her what she needed. He pushed her to show her that she needed to be “seen” and he did it in such holy hotness ways!

Neera has been a “kingmaker” her whole adult career. Taking care of others and was content to stand in the shadows.  Then Gus comes along and shines a bright and colorful world that she could live in.

Smart, funny romance is what you get from Ms. Canterbary and this story is both!  Well done!

Blurb:
With her heart literally in his hands, Celia will have to try and bargain with a devil.

Edward Fasbender is my captor.

Trapped on this island he owns everything on–including, it seems, me.

He told me he would break me, but I thought he meant in the bedroom. It turns out Edward is playing a completely different game.

And he won’t stop until he’s ruined me.

Slay Two: Ruin is the second book in the Slay Quartet. Slay One: Rivalry should be read first.

Excerpt:
Yes, she was calculating and manipulative, and she was very spoiled about getting her way, but that was all surface. She was an onion. There were layers and layers underneath, parts of her that she held away. Parts she showed no one. For whatever reason, I’d caught sight of what she kept hidden, whether she’d meant for that to happen or not, I couldn’t be sure. Regardless, I was captivated. There was so much to see there, so much to take down. So much of her to know and own and destroy and redesign, and like an old habit, I couldn’t break away.

She was an addiction, and I wanted to feed on it. She wasn’t supposed to be like that.

She wasn’t supposed to want to bend to my whims. She wasn’t supposed to open up and give what I asked for. She wasn’t supposed to be so eager to take what I gave her. She certainly wasn’t supposed to see past my own curtain, wasn’t supposed to ask to see more.

I’m here for this, she’d said.

About the Author
With millions of books sold worldwide, Laurelin Paige is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author. She 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 Letterkenny, 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.

My Review…

Oooooo this is the continuing story of Celia and Edward. After the cliffhanger of Slay 1, I was on tenterhooks to see what would happen next!

Celia was a character that I loved to loathe, but know Ms. Paige has done something truly amazing, she is changing the way I think about a character.

This story delves more into Celia’s past, her psyche, her soul.  Edward truly knows how to break her down.   I started to empathize with Celia, I could understand why she became the woman she was when she met Edward.

Edward is slowly coming around.  As his feelings for Celia change, so does his plans and the repercussions of that will be felt throughout the story.

You still get the push and pull of the tumultuous relationship between Edward and Celia, but now you get to see how their relationship is evolving and growing.  With the alternate POV’s it really brings more understanding into Edward and Celia.

I loved how this part of the story ended.  But now I cannot wait for the next installment!
