BUY:

Synopsis: Samantha Kane is about to solidify her father’s legacy by developing sleepy Gold Mountain into the most profitable ski resort in the country. There’s one man standing in her way though. One very sexy, rugged man. When she shows up to convince Austin Reede to sell, she has no intention of hiding her identity. But with a body like his, she’ll take a few risks to get closer.

Austin was the fastest skier on the U.S. Olympic team, until he shattered his knee. Gold Mountain became his refuge—and now Kane Enterprises is threatening that home. When he meets Sam, he has no idea she’s the one to blame, he just knows the attraction between them is one he hasn’t felt in years. A scorching hot one-night stand is just what he needs. Little does he guess that it will change everything…

TBRreview

Sam is a strong, independent woman who is the CEO of Kane Enterprises. She’s known to be strong and commanding, a wolf. She plans to head and meet with one of the holdouts on her expansion project. 

Austin is a former skier who is now training other skiers and dodging Samantha Kane’s calls about selling his land. Conveniently, the Sam who helps him in a crisis situation and that he’s wildly attracted to is actually the one woman he’s trying to stay far from…

A cute story of mistaken identity. I can’t wait for more of the Men of Gold Mountain series!  

4 stars!

This is a story that I was reading it, I was thinking “OMG are you kidding me?!”  But in a good way.  Although I guess as the outsider looking in, it’s easy for me to see what was going on.

Linc and Savannah have a history that Savannah can’t forget no matter how much she tries.  And Linc wants to get back to being friends with Savannah since it’s been years since they’ve seen each other and hung out.

Savannah has been hurt by her heart and Linc in the past, so she is NOT going to let him worm his way back in, right?

This was a sweet book, bits of funny along with swoony moments.  I hope there will be more, I want to see what Ivy has in store for her…

4.5 stars!

BUY:

Synopsis: Being a doctor is everything to me, but I’m not going to let bureaucrats tell me how to practice medicine. It’s about saving lives no matter what, screw them and their paperwork.

When the one woman I could never forget, Ginger Crawford, shows up as my boss all bets are off. The heat between us is tough to ignore but I have to if I want a future at this hospital. It isn’t easy. Every time we argue, I want her even more.

TBRreview

If you’ve read the other books in the series, you might have heard of Beck, resident bad boy doctor.  Well he’s finally getting his story.

Ginger (I have always loved that name) is the one who got away AND Beck’s new boss.  No that doesn’t complicate things at all.  Ginger doesn’t know things about Beck’s past and he surely doesn’t want to tell her.  But the longer they work together, the more sparks fly…

This was a great second chance romance.  Second chance romances can be hit or miss for me but this was definitely a hit.  Beck’s story and history make him the person he was and is today.  And you see how he’s grown but still loves Ginger.

 

Great story!!

5 stars!

Blog Tour & Review ~ Stroked Long ~ by ~ Meghan Quinn

We’re so excited about the release of STROKED LONG by Meghan Quinn! 

STROKED LONG by Meghan Quinn
Scheduled to release: September 20, 2016

Sports Romance

Cover Designed by: Indie Solutions by Murphy Rae

BLURB:
From his dirty-blond hair and breathtaking smile, to the abs from heaven and the irresistible V in his waistline, everything about Bodi Olympic-gold-medalist Banks screams hot piece of @$$.
Yet there’s more.
Dark shadows lurk behind his soulful, serious eyes.
I’m enamored. He’s captured me.

How can running an art foundation with Bodi Banks turns into a slow-burning, epic romance, even though he tries to push me away at every chance? How can I stay away from a broken, routine-driven man whose soul cries to be forgiven for a crime only he believes he committed? Or is that a lie?



**STROKED LONG can be read as a stand alone.

TBRreview
There is NOTHING to prepare you for Bodi.  Just know that going in.  Oh and that Bodi is my new book boyfriend – I’ll fight for him!!  Bodi is so beautifully, wonderfully flawed (with good reason!!!!) but I can’t even call it a flaw.  He’s real.  He’s unlike any romance story hero, in that he has flaws, his life hasn’t been perfect and he really, truly struggles with himself.  And ladies, he watched Gilmore Girls!  So yes, he’s perfect! *sigh*
Ruby is adorable!  She’s colorful and sweet and rambles and I just love her to pieces.  And she’s JUST what Bodi needs.  She needs to bring the color to Bodi’s black, white and gray house and life and shake him up a little bit.
Multiple times I was close to tearing up and wanting to hug Bodi and calm him and reassure him.  Plus, if Jase Dean is Bodi, I’m definitely hugging on HARD ;-).
I can’t wait for Stroked Hard!  If ever I get to meet the genius Miss Quinn in person, I’m definitely getting this series in paperback!!
5 stars!

STROKED by Meghan Quinn

Released: July 19, 2016

Cover Designer: Murphy Rae

BLURB:

Reese King: Olympic medalist, underwear model, Greek god.

His body is chiseled from rock, sculpted by the weight room, and refined by water.

On a daily basis his skin is completely bare for everyone to see, tan and defined, only covered up by a minuscule piece of spandex. There is no denying his sex appeal.

I hate to admit it, but I’m head over heels infatuated with him.

There is one HUGE problem though. His achingly gorgeous abs, inked up arm, and cocky swagger belong to my boss, the high-profile, reality star bitch from hell and certified heinous human being, Bellini Chambers.

What I think is going to be an easy job assisting a glorified wench turns into a cluster f*ck of epic proportions.

About the Author:

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!

WILDER BOOK TRAILER

TBRreview

Oh what can I say about Paxton Wilder?  I think the most fitting is that Wilder really fits him.

This story isn’t just an X-Games competitor falling for his tutor.  There’s love, lust, suspense, intrigue, danger and even mystery!  You can’t help but love Pax when he’s not being a Renegade but being himself.  He is very swoony!!

Leah is along for the Semester at Sea to be with Rachel, her friend and to tutor someone she’s never met.  She’s part of the work study program and in order to stay on this chance of a lifetime for a year, she needs to tutor Pax.  Leah is deathly afraid of risky things – with VERY good reason – and Pax is the King of death-defying stunts.  You can just imagine how that’s going to work out.

I love this book, the start of this series and everything about it!  I can’t decide which Renegade’s story I’m shooting for next.  But I think I know whose it will be…  Want to know?  Read the book!

5 stars!

Willa sighed and headed to the door.

Again Keane held the pink bedazzled cat carrier, which should have made him look ridiculous. Instead it somehow upped his testosterone levels. His sharp eyes were on her but they turned warm in a way that melted her right through her center as she moved toward him. She stopped with the glass door between them, hands on hips, hoping she looked irritated even if that wasn’t quite what she was feeling.

His gaze lowered from her face to run over her body, which gave her another unwelcome rush of heat. Dammit. Now she was irritated and aroused—not a good combo.

His mouth quirked at the saying on her apron that read Dear Santa, I Can Explain.

Drawing a deep breath, she opened the door. “You’ve got Petunia again. I hope that means your great-aunt Sally isn’t still sick.”

He looked surprised that she’d remembered his aunt’s name, or that she’d care. “I don’t know,” he said a little gruffly. “She left me a message saying that I was in charge for the rest of the week but for two days now Pita’s been happily destroying my jobsite. I’m throwing myself on your mercy here. Can you help?”

Wow. He must be really desperate since he was actually asking and not assuming. But since Petunia was a sweetheart, she knew she’d do it.

“I’ll even tell you where I went to high school,” he said, adding a smile that was shockingly charming.

Wow. He hadn’t lost his touch when it came to turning it on. “Not necessary,” she said, painfully aware of their audience.

Keane’s attention was suddenly directed upward, just above her head. She followed his line of sight and found a sprig of mistletoe hanging from the overhead display of small portable doggy pools. Mistletoe? What the hell? She glanced behind her and what do you know, suddenly Rory and Cara were a flurry of movement racing around looking very, very busy. “When did the mistletoe go up?” she asked them. “And why?”

“FOMO,” Cara said from behind the counter.

“Fear of missing out,” Rory translated. “She was hoping a hot guy would come in and the mistletoe would give her an excuse.”

Willa narrowed her eyes and her two soon-to-be-dead employees scattered again.

“Interesting,” Keane said, looking amused.

“I’m not kissing you.”

His mouth curved. “If you take Pita for the day, I’ll kiss you.”

“Not necessary,” she said, gratified no one could see her heart during the two-step in her ears. “I’ll take Petunia for the day. No kiss required or wanted.”

Liar, liar

I love this series! The men and women of Heartbreaker Bay are just such a good group and great friends. I read book 1 and loved it so I was ready for book 2. And I can’t wait for book 3 in February!!!

Willa is a sweetheart with a heart as big as San Francisco and wants to care for all the people and animals she comes across. Including Keane, whom she knew in high school but he doesn’t remember her.

Keane is into flipping houses and properties. Things that don’t demand an attachment or commitment from him. But Willa just sneaks her way into his heart and mind as does his aunt’s cat that he is forced to take care of.

There’s laughs, tears, sexy times and just a whole lot of fun in these books!

Blog Tour & Review ~ Play ~ by ~ Piper Lawson

PLAY
Piper Lawson
Publication date: August 15th 2016
Genres: Adult, Comedy, Romance

I’m Payton Blake. A successful, balanced twenty-something living the dream.

OK. So it’s a big, shiny-ass lie.I could be all of those things. If I had friends outside of work. And if I didn’t mainline watermelon slushies like they were a food group. It wouldn’t hurt if I’d had sex in the last year, either. (My best friend insists Jorge the Nightstand Boyfriend doesn’t count.)

But when you know where you’re headed, who needs to enjoy the ride? Even if part of me longed for a little between-the-sheets adventure, Max Donovan would be the last guy I’d call.Sure, he made the indie video game that broke the internet. His eyebrow piercing’s sexy, in an ‘are-you-in-a-band?’ kind of way, and fighting with him gets me off faster than Jorge on bezerker mode. But he’s arrogant. Presumptuous. Colder than a cactus and twice as prickly. And I’m not talking about his face, because the guy’s barely old enough to shave.None of it changes the fact that I crave Max Donovan like a watermelon slushy on a hot summer day.

I should ignore him. But I can’t, because he just became my biggest client. And whether he’ll admit it or not, he needs me even more than I need him.

So what happens when the girl who lives to work goes head-to-head with the guy who was born to PLAY?
Game on, Max Donovan.PLAY is a sassy standalone romantic comedy about life, love, and video games. For 18+ due to language and Kindle-incinerating steamy scenes.

Goodreads / Amazon

TBRreview

Max Donovan is hot geek chic!  He’s gamer nerd but totally hot in a rebel way.  And arguing with him works Payton up to a lather.  Which Payton needs from being so work-driven that she needs a little mental stimuli to help the physical stimuli ;-).

Payton is working in a man’s world and is trying to kick ass at it and earn the respect of all her male colleagues.  As well as a hefty bonus if she brings in the most new business.  So Max’s game/console will be a HUGE jump to getting that bonus.  If only Max didn’t drive her absolutely batty.

They say opposites attract and boy do Payton and Max throw sparks.  They are constantly challenging each other verbally and you can just FEEL the secual tension leaping off the page.  Their story is hot and sweet and seriously sexy.

5 stars!

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!
