She’s had enough drama in her life.

Nicole O’Donnell is more than ready for the fresh start college offers. After a lifetime of trying to help her alcoholic mom and ex-boyfriend get sober, she’s finally learned her lesson: people don’t change. They certainly don’t change for her.

He can never leave his drama behind.

Thanks to his mom’s substance abuse issues, Dylan McCaffrey’s persona non grata in his hometown of Gun Powder, Colorado. So when he scores a free ride to the top university in the country, he’s determined to make something of this fresh start. But his mom has always relied on him, and she’s not handling his absence well at all. If he can just keep up his grades, pay her bills, and come home every break, he might be able to pull off this opportunity.

True love won’t be denied.

No matter how determined they are to steer clear of each other, their combustible connection explodes, especially when Nicole offers Dylan the one thing he can’t bear—hope. Once he has a taste of it—and the irresistible force of her—there’s no going back.

But when he falls too deeply, when he loses sight of his priorities, he might just lose it all.

EXCERPT

Blood roared in his ears, and need crashed over him. He cupped her chin. Those warm eyes gazed up at him, those beautiful lips parted. When her tongue flicked out to dampen them, he couldn’t take it anymore. He touched his mouth to hers. So sweet. So incredibly sweet.

He tried to hold back. Tried to get a handle on this thoughts—remind himself why this was wrong—but she opened her mouth—just a little—just enough for him to feel the rush of her breath on his lips. And then she leaned into him—so gently, so easily. Christ, like they belonged together.

Holy hell. This was bad. This was so fucking bad. He should stop, walk away while he still had possession of his balls. But he needed this taste. This one little taste to make the want go away.

He pressed his mouth to hers—lightly—just to keep a hint of her to savor for later—but she opened to him, tilting her head to let him in. She got up on her toes, a gentle hand wrapping around his neck—and God help him—but he leaned into her, gave into her. He fell into that delicious mouth, stroking inside with his tongue. And it was so fucking hot, it just cut him wide open, letting all that need come gushing out.

TBRreview

We’re a product of our upbringing.  At least that’s how Dylan sees life.  He sees himself as his drunken mother’s caregiver and the “trailer park trash” he was grown up being called.  Nicole has a similar background but she has chosen to take the lessons out of it and not let it define her.

Dylan likes and admires how bright and young and fresh Nicole is and he doesn’t want to get involved with her and “sully” her with his life.  Nicole just wants Dylan to see himself as she sees him and not as the drunk’s son.

This story was just so much.  It was a love story but it was also a story about perception.  How we perceive ourselves versus how others perceive us and how often our perception of ourselves can be our worst flaw.

I can’t wait to read more of this series!!

5 stars!

Amazon Review Tour ~ Rough & Raw ~ by ~ Hayley Faiman

Title: Rough & Raw
Series: Notorious Devils MC #2
Author: Hayley Faiman
Genre: MC Romance
Release Date: June 2016
Brentlee Johnson-Corbin has always followed her mother’s rules, even when it meant marrying a man she knew wasn’t her happily-ever-after.

 

Bates “Sniper” Lukin, a retired marine, now rides with the Notorious Devils—his street name earned in the deserts of hell.
When the most precious part of Brentlee’s world is threatened by the man who was meant to love them, she escapes to the only safe place she knows. But when she seeks the shelter of her sister, Kentlee, and her husband, Fury, her past steps in—and he’s determined to protect Brentlee and her daughter as his own.
Their story is one of love discarded, but Sniper won’t waste this opportunity to right the wrongs of his past.
Life has been cruel to them both, and Brentlee is certain that the love they lost is gone forever; but under his protective wing, she can’t deny that this rough and raw man might be just the hope she needs.


 “I LOVE your writing and book two is even better than the first.” – Rambling from Beneath the Sheets
“Rough and Raw, this is absolutely the perfect title for this book. It was filled with raw emotion from the prologue.” – Reader Review
“If you like your heroes rough, and your journey to an HEA raw, then this is definitely a book for you!” – Author R.C Martin


red_review
Brentlee and Sniper’s story is just amazing.  They have both been through so much – although very different things – before they find their way back to each other.  Brentlee & Sniper were a fantastic couple when they were younger.  Their lives have led them through some very trying experiences but somehow they find themselves back to each other.
Rough & Raw is the second book in the series.  You don’t need to read book 1 (Kentlee & Fury’s story) – I hadn’t read it – but now that I read book 2, I want to read their story.  Each story is it’s own couple but there are recurring characters in each story.
I can’t wait for Dirty Johnny’s story.  He was quite the crack up!
5 stars!

Amazon Review Tour ~ Fool For You ~ by ~ R.C. Martin

Title: Fool For You
Series: Made For Love Series
Author: R.C. Martin
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 17, 2016


Judah St. Michaels is a man who seeks pleasure, not love. Never love. By rule, satisfaction is guaranteed while in his bed—yet, his women are always dismissed still begging for more. His frequent flyers are few, but variety breeds a challenge on which he thrives, and loneliness is not a burden he shoulders. But when he happens upon an exquisite, little redhead—whose shy demeanor he’d like to shatter in one night of passion—her reluctance to accept his offer changes his game completely.

Teddy Fitzpatrick doesn’t trust easily. The scars that define her cut deep, and love is a dream she’s afraid to chase. When a tall, dark, and gorgeous man enters her world, she knows right away that he’s the type to break hearts. Yet, try as she might, his persistence is hard to ignore, and her ability to resist soon dwindles down to nothing. Against her better judgment, she opens her heart, surrendering to the dominate force that he is.

But happily-ever-afters are not easy to come by, for assholes aren’t born, they’re made… And falling in love is a fool’s errand.

*Series STANDALONE. Written for audiences 18+ years of age, due to language and sexual content.

“Hoooowow!!! This book is everything and so much more! And to be honest, I’m so in love with it.” – Chatterbook Book Blog
“This epic monster book by RC Martin had me hooked from the very start. It is the perfect combination of sweet and sultry, innocent and erotic.” – Reader Review

 


 

“…..read the book.. it’s a really long book and it’s full of deliciousness… so read it. That is all!” – Author Hayley Faiman
review
Head’s Up: This book is longer than most – 624 pages according to Amazon. BUT you wouldn’t know it’s that long.  I read it over 2 days and I loved it!  I had to know what happened.  It wasn’t as if I read it and thought to myself “When will it end?”  I was just so into Judah and Teddy’s story.
Judah and Teddy’s relationship is huge and complex and sweet and just so consuming.  Judah is your typical manwhore who decides he wants Teddy once he sees her.  Teddy is unlike any other woman Judah has come across and that makes her more of a challenge.
Teddy has had a bad relationship before so she is justifiably skeptical and jaded somewhat.  Judah is exactly the type of man she doesn’t want to get involved with but is so interested in him as well.
I truly loved this story.  It is very well written and the characters angst is so real.
5 stars!
I’m a born and bred Coloradan. While I now reside in Virginia, the land of the Rocky Mountains is where I’ve left a piece of my heart and where my characters come to life. When I’m not writing I’m reading; when I’m not reading I’m writing…you know how it goes! I also enjoy cooking, baking, crocheting, and jigsaw puzzles. Basically, I’m an old soul with a young heart, nonchalantly waiting for my prince to come.
