Ride Steady by Kristen Ashley Review

The ride of her life . . . Once upon a time, Carissa Teodoro believed in happy endings. Money, marriage, motherhood: everything came easy---until she woke up to the ugly truth about her Prince Charming. Now a struggling, single mom and stranded by a flat tire, Carissa's pondering her mistakes when a vaguely familiar knight rides to her rescue on a ton of horsepower.

Climb on and hold tight . . . 
In high school, Carson Steele was a bad boy loner who put Carissa on a pedestal where she stayed far beyond his reach. Today, he's the hard-bodied biker known only as Joker, and from the way Carissa's acting, it's clear she's falling fast. While catching her is irresistible, knowing what to do with her is a different story. A good girl like Carissa is the least likely fit with the Chaos Motorcycle Club. Too bad holding back is so damned hard. Now, as Joker's secrets are revealed and an outside threat endangers the club, Joker must decide whether to ride steady with Carissa---or ride away forever . .




MY REVIEW
5 STARS!!!
I really really loved and enjoyed this book. I can never get enough of Kristen Ashley's writing style and her books. All her stories and never the same and you just feel completely lost in her words and books. Every book and character of hers just becomes my favorite, its so hard to pick which book in which series is my favorite because I just love them all. Ashley has a really different writing style that I can not just get enough of and its so hard to put it into words. All of Ashley's books are my favorite and I know that they will be for a long time to come. Really can't for the next book in this awesome series and to keep reading more of Kristen Ashley's work!!

Huge thanks to Netgalley and the Publisher for the Review Copy.

Dirty Thoughts by Megan Erickson Blog Tour Spotlight

Some things are sexier the second time around

Cal Payton has gruff and grumbly down to an art...all the better for keeping people away. And it usually works. Until Jenna Macmillan—his biggest mistake—walks into Payton and Sons mechanic shop all grown up, looking like sunshine, and inspiring more than a few dirty thoughts.

Jenna was sure she was long over the boy she'd once loved with reckless abandon, but one look at the steel-eyed Cal Payton has her falling apart all over again. Ten years may have passed, but the pull is  stronger than ever...and this Cal is all man. Cal may have no intention of letting Jenna in, but she's always been his light, and it's getting harder to stay all alone in the dark. When a surprise from the past changes everything, Cal and Jenna must decide if their connection should be left alone, or if it's exactly what they need for the future of their dreams.

I really really loved and enjoyed this book to say the least. This is a really great series that you just can't go wrong with. Laura does a fantastic job wrapping up this wonderful series and introducing us to the Raven boys series which I really can't wait for. Really sad to see this series go because I just love all the boys and cant get enough of them. This book to me was the perfect ending so emotional  for me though.I did tear up a little bit. This will be one of the series that I love forever and will definitely always be a top pick of mine! Can't wait for Laura's new stuff, love her writing style.

Put Up Your Duke by Megan Frampton Review


He was once happily bedding and boxing, but in the newest Duke's Behaving Badly novel, Nicholas Smithfield has inherited a title and a bride . . .

To keep his estate afloat, the new Duke of Gage must honor an agreement to marry Lady Isabella Sawford. Stunningly beautiful, utterly tempting, she's also a bag of wedding night nerves, so Nicholas decides to wait to do his duty—even if it means heading to the boxing saloon every day to punch away his frustration.

Groomed her whole life to become the perfect duchess, Isabella longs for independence, a dream that is gone forever. As her husband, Nicholas can do whatever he likes—but, to Isabella's surprise, the notorious rake instead begins a gentle seduction that is melting every inch of her reserve, night by night . . .

To his utter shock, Nicholas discovers that no previous exploits were half as pleasurable as wooing his own wife. But has the realm's most disreputable duke found the one woman who can bring him to his knees— and leave him there?



MY REVIEW!
5 STARS!!

I really loved and enjoyed this book. This was the first historical romance book I have ever read and I really really loved it. I loved the character of Nicholas I thought he was super charming and sweet and loved that he took his time with Isabella. He was really in charge of his emotions and just knew what he wanted. I loved the character of Isabella as well, she was so sheltered and her family was not very nice to her. They just looked and there children as pawns and only wanted them to be a certain way. I really loved the writing style and just fell in completely in love with the story, basically made me love the historical romance genre and makes me want to read more. Big thanks to the publisher for the arc, really happy I gave this book and genre a try because now I have more genres and great books to find and read!!!

Power Play by Tiffany Snow Review

THIS KIND OF BUSINESS CAN ONLY BE PERSONALSage Reese lives for her job. More precisely, she lives for her debonair boss, Parker Andersen. Sage handles everything for Parker, even as she fantasizes about the one thing that isn't in her job description: him. But when a high-stakes account crosses the line from shady to deadly, a tough cop starts giving Sage the attention she wishes Parker would . . .

Detective Dean Ryker couldn't be more different from Parker. While Parker wears expensive suits like a second skin and drives a BMW, Ryker's uniform is leather jackets and jeans . . . and his ride of choice is a Harley. While Parker's sexiness is a reserved, slow burn, Ryker is completely upfront about what-and who-he's after. And Sage tops his list.

Now, as Ryker digs deeper into the dark side of Parker's business, Sage finds herself caught between two men: the one she's always wanted-and the one who makes her feel wanted like never before . . .




MY REVIEW
5 STARS!!

Oh man this book has wrecked me, how will I go on?? To say the least I really loved and enjoyed this book. I really loved Parker and Ryker there both very good looking men and both very opposites. I can see Sage's attraction to both. The only thing I honesty disliked was the fact that it is a love triangle book and that it will be a while before we really know who she picks. This is really a great book and a great start to this new series, filled with passion and criminals. Everything you could want and more. First book I have read by the author and I really liked her writing style and cant wait to read more by her. Also looking for forward to the rest of the series! 

Big thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for an arc.

High Heat by Linda Morris Review

The author of Melting the Millionaire’s Heart gives readers a front-row seat to her new Hard Hitters baseball series. First up at bat: a hotshot pitcher and a PR pro battle it out on and off the field…

Small-town Indiana tomboy Sarah Dudley grew up living and breathing baseball, since her father owned the minor league Plainview Thrashers. A talented player herself, she idolized her brother’s best friend: Tom Cord, a pitcher with a wicked fastball and an even more wicked reputation.

Now, Sarah is the Thrashers’ VP of public relations, and Tom—a star in the major leagues—has been assigned to the club while rehabbing from surgery. It’s Sarah’s job to keep the hard-throwing, hard-living star out of trouble. But when she gets a glimpse of the man behind the bad-boy image, they start to generate more heat than an inside fastball…





MY REVIEW
4 STARS!!

I really love and enjoyed this book. Really loved the story line and the characters. I thought Sarah was very strong and very determined to make her place. I think that this is a great start to a new series and cant wait for the other books in this awesome series.

Big thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC.

The Marriage Contract by Katee Robert Review

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Katee Robert begins a smoking hot new series about the O'Malley family-wealthy, powerful, dangerous and seething with scandal.

Teague O'Malley hates pretty much everything associated with his family's name. And when his father orders him to marry Callista Sheridan to create a "business" alliance, Teague's ready to tell his dad exactly where he can stuff his millions. But then Teague actually meets his new fiancée, sees the bruises on her neck and the fight still left in her big blue eyes, and vows he will do everything in his power to protect her.

Everyone knows the O'Malleys have a dangerous reputation. But Callie wasn't aware just what that meant until she saw Teague, the embodiment of lethal grace and coiled power. His slightest touch sizzles through her. But the closer they get, the more trouble they're in. Because Callie's keeping a dark secret-and what Teague doesn't know could get him killed




MY REVIEW
4 STARS!!

I really loved and enjoyed this story. I thought the story line was pretty epic and I just could not get enough of it. Teague is such a cool mystery to me and I really loved his character. I really liked the authors writing style and can't wait to read more by her.

Arrow's Hell by Chantal Fernando Review

Being the younger sister of a Wind Dragons MC member isn’t as great as you’d think it would be.

I can’t escape the details of my brother’s exploits.
No one tells me anything. 
Men who know who I am tend to stay away from me.

And worst of all:
The members of the MC are off-limits.

When Arrow catches my eye, I make it my mission to make him happy again. 

When I fall head over heels in love with him, I just hope he will be there to catch me.
And that my brother doesn’t kill him.




MY REVIEW!!
5 STARS!!!

I really loved and enjoyed this book, as much as I enjoyed the first one. I really loved the character of Anna, I thought she was so strong and just a fabulous character. I really loved how she stood up for her self and wouldn't take anything from her brother and the club guys but also knew how to have fun with them. I really loved the character of Arrow as well, yes he was super broody and mean and wasn't very nice to Anna in the beginning of the book but he has his reasons for it. He lost his first love with out her really even knowing how he felt. I loved the journey he had to take and loved every minute spent taking the journey with him because its definitely worth it to see him get the love he deserves. 

I really loved the authors writing style for this book and the whole series. I have read plenty of other MC books and this one is definitely different but in a good way. I loved feeling the emotions of the characters but also the jokes and laughs they game me. Really a great series and I can't wait for Trackers book!

The Consequence of Revenge by Rachel Van Dyken Review


After losing his best friend to another guy, the notoriously too-confident Max Emory suddenly feels lost. He may have devastatingly good looks, an abundance of charm, and a claim to one of the biggest hotel empires around, but he has no ambition anymore. So when his fed-up friends decide they’ve had enough of his moping, they sign him up to be the next bachelor on the reality series Love Island. And between his pride and his forged signature on an ironclad contract, Max just can’t say no.
Now he’s stranded in paradise with twenty-four women, one terrifying goat, and Becca, the breathtaking barista who already turned him down back home. The closer Max gets to Becca, the more determined he becomes to win her over. As she gets to know him better, things start heating up. But is Becca really after Max’s heart—or is she after the cash prize she could claim once the cameras stop rolling?






MY REVIEW!!
5 STARS!!!
I really loved and enjoyed this book. So funny and just so super cute. I really loved the character of Max, there is just something about him that is just so cute and funny that I can just not get enough of. Really loved Rachel's writing style, she is one of my favorite authors and I know she will be for a long time to come. She has a way of just making her characters funny and basically like your second family. Really cant wait for the rest of the series. One of my new favorite and top series of 2015 by far!
