Book Blurb:

Even in paradise, danger lurks…

When Makayla Evans discovers that her employer — a pharmaceutical trailblazer — is dabbling in Dark Pharma, she barely has time to process the information before her conventional life is ripped away. In one breath she’s standing in her New York office; in the next, she’s waking up in the middle of a Central American desert. With no way to escape or call for help, she realizes a terrifying truth. She has vanished… without a trace.

For former Marine Kellan James, working private security on Costa Rica’s La Isla Azul — The Blue Island — is a dream job. But his peace is disrupted when an old friend calls with a nearly impossible task: track down a woman kidnapped by a dangerous drug cartel. When Kellan finally finds Makayla, she’s in bad shape, but she’s alive. Now he just has to keep her that way…

Finding refuge on a remote island with a kind, handsome Marine is not how Makayla expected her nightmare to end. As the days turn to months, Makayla and Kellan develop an unbreakable bond, falling in love with the island, and with each other. But they can’t hide forever. Because even in paradise, danger lurks…

PRAISE FOR ROBIN’S NOVELS:

“An emotional, captivating second-chance romance….This moving, unforgettable journey will leave you begging for more.”― Frolic on A Love Like Yours

“Sexy, emotional, and heartfelt. I read this second chance love story in one sitting!”―Mia Sheridan, New York Times bestselling author on A Love Like Yours

“Robin Huber is a fantastic storyteller. A Love Like Yours is a breathtakingly romantic debut.”―Melanie Harlow, USA Today bestselling author on A Love Like Yours

“A story that doesn’t shy away from the complexities of tangled hearts. Achingly romantic.”―K.A. Tucker, USA Today bestselling author on A Love Like Yours

“A Love Like Yours has angst, heat, conflict, tension,and heart…. Fans of Meghan Quinn and Katy Evans will enjoy.”―Harlequin Junkie on A Love Like Yours

This book was so not what I was expecting! I was interested because Makayla (love her name) is working for a pharmaceutical company that she is in the dark pharma world – which is fascinating to me, because I work for a drug monitoring program. So I was in when reading the blurb.

The dark pharma world is just the tip of the iceberg! Although it’s how Makayla ends up getting swept up into this whole thing – which is a little terrifying to be honest because it wouldn’t surprise me if this was something that could happen. Plus it brings Kellan into her life and he was exactly what she needed at the time that Makayla needed him.

This story had highs and lows and everything in between. This was a wild ride from beginning to end and I was sucked in from the beginning!

4 stars!

AUTHOR INFORMATION:

Robin has been dreaming up book boyfriends since before she ever had one. A career, a husband and three kids later, she’s still hopelessly addicted to love stories that make her swoon. Robin is an extroverted introvert with an unhealthy dependency on her horoscope and a knack for plotting emotionally charged romance novels on her way to work, where she spends her days as a hospital director. She loves the ocean, thunderstorms, coffee, wine and Tim Riggins. She hates turtlenecks, chunky jewelry, kitchen gadgets and high heels, though she begrudgingly wears them often. She also has an aversion to extreme cold, which is why after a four year stint in the Northeast, she returned home to Florida where she’s living happily ever after.

New Release & Review ~ My #MNGirl ~ by ~ A.M. Brooks

♦ ♦ ♦

I was hidden so we could be safe.

I survived so I could reclaim my life.

Now, everything has been destroyed by the same evil always lurking in the shadows.

Time is running out and my world keeps unraveling.

All I can do is put my trust in the boy with the messy blond hair, icicle eyes and lips that tell lies.

Can the Midwest Boys protect me?

The body count around town would suggest otherwise.

My job was simple. Keep her alive, make sure she follows the rules and keep her out of trouble.

I’ll win back her trust and keep her safe no matter what it costs me.

The girl with the purple hair and eyes that flare to life when I’m near are my undoing.

She used to be my enemy.

Now death and destruction are following her and loyalty has been stained by spilled blood.

Someone waged a war against Rogue. It’s time to answer back.

♦ ♦ ♦

I had not heard about this series before but yes, you do need to read book 1, #MNGirl first. This book picks up where that book left off. Saylor, Ciaran, Kai and Silas have definitely changed since we met them in book 1. And I’ve tried for both books to figure out how to say Ciaran and I’ve got nothing. I’m thinking Ci is like “Cee” or “Sy”? I could go either way. You tell me what you think.

This book, well this series, totally took me for a ride. I was not expecting what I read, but that isn’t a bad thing. There is romance, suspense, mystery, intrigue, and so much more. I will be re-reading this book again because I’m sure there are things I’ve missed that I will pick up the next time I read it.

I can’t wait to read more of this series. I need Silas and Kai’s stories STAT! Silas definitely intrigues me and I cannot wait to see his future.

5 stars!

I tell myself I can have three days. Three days to stay under my covers, eyes closed, be numb and drown out the world, before I need to make plans. Everything I thought I knew is gone. The pain in my chest roars and pushes against my organs, until I let a silent scream escape. My whole body hurts. It’s unbearable to do nothing, and yet, I have no energy to get up. I don’t want to face my reality. She was just sitting here, smiling and making plans for a future. Their faces are all I see when my eyes close. Those images on the screen at Rogue are all I see when my eyes are open. I can’t escape and that thought takes my breath away. I’m trapped.

A life that’s turning into a rollercoaster. A fire that burns her house down. A new crush that isn’t telling her everything…⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Jen had a rough start of her adult life when she got pregnant and lost both her baby and her ex. But that was ten years ago. Now she pairs wine and food for parties for a living and loves her life. It’s all about to get even better when she meets Jake at the Best Draft’s opening party. But when she loses her house in a fire, her world is turning upside down yet again. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Jake’s heart was broken when his fiancé left him at the alter with only a note on a cocktail napkin saying “I’m sorry, I cant.” Ever since that moment, he has a hard time trusting people. But when he meets Jen, he knows she’s his soulmate. He offers her his guestroom for her to live in but he chides himself. Afterall, how could he live in the same space as someone who he thinks of every second of the day? And would she still want to live with him when she finds out more about him?⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
In order to move on, both Jen and Jake have to face their past. But when miscommunications lead to misunderstandings, Jen and Jake face even bigger challenges. Will they be able to fix this?

Jake is just too cocky – at least when he sees “Red” Jen and decides he needs to meet her. And Jen is not impressed when Jake shows up and is all sorts of over confident with her. That is not what she’s looking for at all.

Jen ends up homeless, her apartment had burnt down and she just doesn’t know what to do. While pouring over her woes with her friend when wouldn’t you know it, Jake shows up. But Jake, is actually helpful and offers her a room in his cabin in the woods – no, this isn’t a murder mystery.

I liked Jen and Jake’s chemistry, even though they both were keeping secrets from each other. Eventually they worked it out and alls well that ends well :).

New Release & Review ~ I Crave You ~ by ~ C.C. Wood

I Crave You

When life gives you lemons, put them in your bra and make you tatas look bigger. If I had done that at fourteen, maybe I would have avoided the unfortunate nickname of “Flatty Cami.”

It all started when I met Brody Murphy. I was eight years old and it was love at first sight.

Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your perspective, he showed me his true colors six years later. We argued every time I saw him, which was a lot since he was my brother’s best friend. The hostility became outright hate when he coined that nickname I mentioned—the one that I didn’t leave behind until I graduated high school.

The day he got married and moved away was probably the luckiest day of my life and since then, I graduated college, started a business, and grew boobs so the whole nickname thing shouldn’t still bother me. Yes, I know it shouldn’t, but some grudges are worth holding.

Now, Brody’s back in town, divorced, and with his adorable daughter in tow. But he’s not the same boy I once knew. He’s a hot single dad who makes me laugh and it’s getting harder and harder to remember all the reasons I should hate him.

And way too easy to fall in love.

Wild for You

There’s one thing I’ve learned in life: men may come and men may go, but pizza is forever. Particularly when you have a problem.

Mine is that I can’t fall in love. Unless you count pizza. Because I definitely love me some pizza.

What was I saying? Oh, yeah, that’s right. My little problem.

After my latest failed attempt at love—with a man, not food—I needed a break, not just from dating, but from my life. What better time to take a vacation than when you realize you’re defective?

That’s how I ended up visiting my best friend, Cam. And how I found Ben Murphy. For the first time in my life, I felt more yearning for a man than I did for a deep dish supreme with extra cheese and it was scary as hell.

But unlike a pizza, Ben has the ability to break my heart.

TBRreview

Without reading the synopsis, I just knew that Cam and Brody were the main characters. Their hatred for each other (although I hesitate to call it hatred) was so combustible. You could feel their chemistry leaping off the page, to the point, it made me uncomfortable for the people around them. That’s some tension!

The whole group of people in this story and series make me laugh. From Cam and her family, to Brody and his brother, to the nosy townspeople who watch and report on Cam and Brody.

My favorite character might have to be Gary. Just because I like animals and Gary gives zero effs about people. Except for Cam when she is supposed to have fed him. And he will let her know if she’s late. Cam has a good heart, even if she says that it’s the neighborhood who feeds him when it’s actually her who takes care of Gary.

I can’t wait for Sierra’s story. She has such an interesting background and philosophy on life that I must know more! Plus, I want to meet more of Ben.

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Release Date: July 28, 2020

AN
ALL-NEW STANDALONE FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR JULIA KENT

I never
thought my perp walk would lead to true love.

Then again,
I never thought I’d be arrested on RICO charges and hauled away in zip ties on
camera for the world to see, minutes after closing the most amazing deal of my
career.

And all of
it in front of my biggest rival, billionaire wunderkind Ian McRory.

I am broke.

I am
disgraced.

I am alone.

I am a
sucker.

But the
worst part? I have to go back to my hometown and live in my bedroom filled with
relics from my childhood.

Lisa Frank
never made me so mad before.

Just when I
needed a rescue, I got one — in the form of help from my biggest rival.

He can’t
bring back my money.

He
certainly can’t bring back my reputation or my pride.

But there’s
one thing he can bring back to me.

A sense of
hope.

Maybe even
love.

Ian sees
something in me no one else does, and he’s relentless about making me see it,
too. As we grow closer, I’m starting to see that while my entire life used to
be a lie, the truth is staring me in the present — and it’s a truth I like
very, very much, hot eyes and gorgeous smile and all.

But I have
to be careful.

I can’t be
too —

That’s
right.

Hasty.

The final
book in the USA Today bestselling Do-Over Series (Fluffy, Perky, Feisty), as
Mallory’s sister, Hastings “Hasty” Monahan gets her turn at a happily
ever after that starts off with an arrest.

Hers.

Excerpt

Ian keeps chasing me, though. Why? And why does the fact that he won’t
let up thrill me?

That’s the part I hate. The thrill. The zing of arousal that shoots
through me every time that jerkface–who isn’t a jerk–does this. He’s pursuing
me and I don’t understand it, but I do like it.

More than I want to admit.

The fight inside me feels like layers of muscles in my abs are in a
tug-of-war. Ian McCrory represents everything I fought to achieve in my old
life. Self-made billionaire. Liked by everyone. Admired by even more.

Respected for his hardcore negotiating skills.

And droolingly handsome.

He was my nemesis. My enemy. The guy who sniped deals, and who I
sniped from. We were adversaries, but he flipped the script, didn’t
he? Coming to my rescue. Aiding me in a time of need.

I don’t want to need him.

And I especially don’t need to want him.

I stare at the phone. Just as my finger goes to the Power button to turn
it off again, three dots appear.

One dinner. Indulge me?

I go into my contacts, and I block him.

He just proved me right.

Taking help from people means you’re obligated.

And no matter how sweet the currency he’s dangling, I don’t like owing
him.

I don’t like owing anyone.

Burke turned my entire life into one big debt.

But my body isn’t available as collateral.

And neither is my heart.

PAPERBACK

I swear every Julia Kent book is my most favorite, until the next comes out. But isn’t that the way with any new book by an author you love?

We’ve been conditioned to hate Hasty (I mean Hastings) since the beginning of the series. So this book was LONG coming for me. I wanted to know why she was so snooty and snobby and just generally not nice. So this book was the perfect dive into why and how Hasty was the way she was.

There is one quote in the book that stuck with me and I think summarizes Hasty’s mentality in this story when she is talking with Ian about how being a human being isn’t a competition and when she realized it, “I’ve come to realize that kindness is a better barometer of success than being number one.” I think that’s something EVERYONE needs to realize.

I don’t know who else might have a story but I don’t want to let these characters go. So I hope there’s more <3.

5 stars!

New Release & Review ~ The Deceptive Twin ~ by ~ L.R. Jackson

When Jasen realized the wife he had fallen out of love with started to change, he never imagined his love would be tangled in lies and deceit. Find out if the price of forgiveness is more than Jasen is willing to pay in L.R. Jackson’s THE DECEPTIVE TWIN. Fans of Shanora Williams, Meghan March, and Kennedy Ryan will devour this forbidden romance.

Morgan
All she was supposed to do was step into her twin’s perfect life for a little while and take an opportunity to be the fun one for once. To know what it felt like to really live. The last thing she ever meant to do was fall for her sister’s husband. How can something that is so wrong feel so right?

Jasen
His wife had become almost like a roommate over the past few years. The distance between them had been insurmountable. Until recently. Something about her is … different. She’s warmer, softer somehow. Jasen is shocked to find himself falling in love with his gorgeous wife all over again. But… is she really his wife?

When tragedy strikes, Morgan is forced to choose between continuing the lie and owning up to her deception. Doing the right thing could mean losing the only man she’s ever loved, but can a relationship built on betrayal ever truly last? More importantly, will Jasen even want her when he learns the truth—or will the price of forgiveness simply be more than he’s willing to pay?

Exclusive Excerpt

I stop in my tracks as I hear the front door slam. This is it. The plan is in motion. My heart beats faster, and my palms become sweaty as I try my best to remain calm in the denim jean skirt and midriff top that Monroe forced me to change into. I’m sure this is regular attire for her, but it isn’t something I would wear, and I feel very exposed at the moment. Jasen walks in with his briefcase, and immediately, my lungs stop working. He drops the briefcase down in front of him and watches me with the sexiest dark brown eyes I’ve ever seen. This is not the teenaged Jasen I remember. He’s bigger. Sexier. His muscles strain against the blue collared shirt he’s wearing. His sleeves are rolled up, revealing thick biceps. He looks like walking lust and temptation. He turns and opens a cabinet. “How was Philly?”
“Good,” I answer as my body heats from nervousness. And other things.
He closes the cabinet and turns around to face me. He narrows his eyes as he tears the wrapper off the granola bar in his hand. “You’re awfully quiet. Is something wrong?” he asks before taking a bite.
“No, everything’s fine,” I reply.
“How’s your sister?”
“She’s doing great.”
“So, you two are good? You’re speaking again now?”
“Yup.”
“Good, now you can stop talking about how much you hate her.”
“What?” I ask softly.
I’m not sure if I heard him correctly; did he just say that Monroe hated me?
He stops chewing. “Oh, come on, you say it all the time, Monroe. How Morgan was the favorite, and how Grandma Rose always defended her no matter how wrong she was.”
So, I had heard him correctly. I’m instantly angered. Monroe hated me. She betrayed me, so I should be the one hating her, not the other way around. Had I known about this sooner, I would have never agreed to help her. I snap out of it and answer his question. “We worked out our differences. Everything is good now.”
He takes the last bite as he watches me. He swallows and tosses the wrapper in the nearby trash bin as he walks closer. My body stiffens when he stops right in front of me.
Uh-oh!
He’s entirely too close. His lips are mere inches from mine, and I can smell the mixture of peanut butter and chocolate on his breath. I can also smell his cologne. And it’s intoxicating. He places his hand around my waist and gently pulls me to him. “Did you think about my suggestion? Are you willing to try?” he asks.
“Yes,” I answer as my eyes fixate on his.
“So, you’ll go?” he continues.
“Yes,” I answer again, mesmerized by his baritone voice.
“Good. I think it will be good for us,” he responds.
He leans in and kisses me, rendering me powerless. My eyes close and my mouth opens as I allow his tongue to enter. Sparks ignite every nerve ending. His hands make their way under my skirt, and he tugs at my thong, pulling it down. It fall to my ankles, and he lifts me up and on top of the countertop. I’m lost in the moment. It’s been so long since I’ve touched a man, and my body is all too welcoming of Jasen’s hands. My skirt is lifted around my waist, his fingers are between my legs, and he’s kissing my neck softly. “I’ve missed touching you. I want you so bad, Monroe… right here, right now.”
My eyes fly open at the mention of my sister’s name, and I clasp my legs together just as his finger reaches my clit.
“What’s wrong?” he asks.
“I can’t,” I answer.

I’m not normally a huge forbidden romance fan. Just not my jam. BUT that being said, I absolutely LOVED this story! I read The Deceptive Twin mostly while I should have been sleeping but #insomnia. And then I finished the rest while I was on lunch while working from home because I just needed to know what happened with Morgan/Monroe/Jasen.

I knew from the jump I was not a Monroe fan. And I guess in reading the book, the reader was meant to not be a fan of Monroe and being more pulled towards Team Morgan. And I definitely was pulled. Although truthfully, I was somewhat skeptical of her as well just by reading the synopsis. But that’s my own not liking cheating stories.

I truly did end up liking Morgan and Jasen afterwards while reading the story. And was able to really like the story between Jasen and Morgan. Definitely an author to add to my reading list!

5 stars!

New Release Review ~ Hate the Player ~ by ~ Max Monroe

From reading the synopsis, you’d think ok playboy actor who is a manwh*re yada yada. But no. Just no. Andrew is NOT what you are expecting. Which if you’ve read any Max Monroe books, you know these ladies do nothing you expect, except that you will laugh your pants off!

Andrew and Birdie are nothing like you’d think. Every Max Monroe character seems to have sass in spades and Birdie absolutely does and Andrew LOVES and LIVES to drive her to sass master. Plus you will recognize the secondary characters from other Max Monroe books.

Yes, Andrew was a cocky manwh*re. He freely admits that, but it’s his actions that truly helped define him. Even when he was being super arrogant, he was taking care of Birdie and making sure that she was ok. So you can’t really hate the guy.

One book I should not have stayed up reading because it was too funny but I have insomnia anyway so oh well :).

New Release & Review ~ Winning My Best Friend’s Girl ~ by ~ Piper Rayne

Release Date: July 21

Imagine lying in a hospital bed and the doctor who pulls the curtain back to treat you is the one who got away. Even if you never really had her in the first place. She’s not only your high school crush, she’s the ex-girlfriend of your ex-best friend. The one girl you’ve always wanted.

Here’s a step-by-step list to finally win her over…

Key to win #1: Try not to take offense that she snuck back into town without telling you—six months ago.

Key to win #2: Rekindle the friendship to ease the awkwardness. But… DO NOT enter the friend zone.

Key to win #3: Ignore the fact that she went speed dating the night before. Take it as good a sign—maybe she’s looking for a relationship.

Key to win #4: Attempt to keep the two of you out of the town gossip blog and away from your large family.

Make sure you don’t let this last one throw you off your mission.

Key to win #5: Don’t get deterred when you find out the past is about to repeat itself. Because the man she met at the speed dating night is your best buddy from work.

Just remember, you sat back and let her slip away once, you won’t do it a second time.

Failure is not an option.

Just in reading the title, you know you’re going to be in for an angsty ride. But with Piper Rayne authoring, you know there’s also going to be some sweet, hot times and some laughs. Which is exactly what Kingston and Stella’s story gives you!

I’ve been waiting for Kingston’s story for a while. I’ve always been intrigued by Kingston, I used to work for a fire department too, so I was really excited to read this smokejumper’s story. So yes, smokejumper, Kingston is a daredevil type and Stella works in an ER, obvious they would reunite but they have such differing personalities. Stella and Kingston were the best of friends as kids, until Stella got together with Owen, their mutual friend.

Now Kingston is back in Lake Starlight and he wants to re-connect with Stella and reignite (or ignite) the fire he felt with Stella and get her feeling it as well.

This might have been one of my favorites of the Baileys, but I can’t say for sure until I read them all 🙂

Shakedown is a place of second chances, but only for some

Ex-con Nathan came to Shakedown to start over, not fall hard for one of their burlesque dancers, Midnight Starr. But who could resist such a woman? She was light and fire and everything good about the world.

But he will fight that thudding desire for her. He has to. The MacKenna family, whose son he accidentally killed many years ago, has drawn a target on his back and he won’t drag her into his mess.

Starr, however, isn’t one to give up easily. When she wants someone, she’s all in.

She has no idea what she’s in for.

Work got in the way from reading this whole thing front to back immediately. Which was horrible because this book was so jam-packed (but not overly so), I would have loved to read it all in 1 sitting.

Starr (which I love her stage name) is one in a set of burlesque dancing triplets at a club. Which I used to take pole dancing for exercise and I have MAD respect for burlesque dancers. My thighs still cry LOL. Phoenix and Luna (also stage names) are her sisters and you have never met a closer bunch. They might argue but they have each other’s back 100%.

And Nathan. Oh Nathan. I loved that he was an ex-con who really wanted to love Starr but didn’t want to taint her with all the darkness surrounding him. But Starr isn’t a typical woman and she is NOT going to let Nathan chase her off, even with everything going against them.

I cannot wait to read Phoenix and Luna’s stories and how they get their happy endings (I hope!)

5 stars!

TBRreview

Finn and Abbie’s story was EXACTLY what I was needing right now with the crazy world today.

Abbie is a shyer woman who is fine staying on the photographer side of the camera. And Finn, her best friend’s older brother is Abbie’s complete opposite. Abbie wants to get more confidence and wants to start online dating. So she starts talking with men online and ends up getting help from Finn, unknowingly.

Abbie and Finn are so freaking adorable and you can feel the tension and chemistry between the 2 of them. And it’s just so delicious to read.

Finn and Abbie might be my favorite of the Everton couples but I will still read all the books again and again.

5 stars!
