Blurb


X and I were probably doomed from the start.

That’s what happens when you meet in court-mandated group therapy and then try to steal from him to pay off your blackmailing drug dealer. Former drug dealer, thank you very much. I'm turning over a new leaf and all that.

Which is why I should leave him alone.

Except he tempts me to do things I swore I’d stop doing. It’s that whole gruff, grumbly, anti-social thing he has going on. Him, flame. Me, moth. Something about him calls to me, makes the blood hum in my body. And I don't want that feeling to end.


Lucy Connors is straight-up insane.

She looks like a Disney princess and tries my patience in more ways than I thought possible. Besides the fact that I have to save her cute little ass from jail, I can’t quite figure out how to leave her alone. Even when she’s trying her hand at Breaking and Entering. Especially when it's myhouse she's burglarizing.

Yeah, we were probably doomed from the start.

But that’s the thing about being hooked on something so good, and so bad for you—you don’t walk away when you should.


MY REVIEW:

A romance that has the perfect blend of dark and  humorous and outstandingly witty banter! OMG I never thought I would enjoy the crap out of a dark romance...but then again, I NEVER would of imagined that you could blend fun, sassy, and a lot of humor in one either, yet Karla Sorensen and Whitney Barbetti did this book up RIGHT! Very amusing, super sexy, smart, feisty and full of surprising appeal, this is one dark romance I will be more than happy to brag about to my book friends.

Hooked was a general good time..even with the dark tone to it, I still found it to be utterly irresistible. I LOVED LOVED LOVED X and Lucy! These two had freaking chemistry in spades and their passion...HOT HOT HOT! The sex is rough, sexy, and oh so tempting, while the plot thickens WONDERFULLY in just the right place and the banter...my goodness, the banter had me giggling at times and the story had me sitting on the edge. 

Since I was completely "HOOKED" on this story, I give this book an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND VERY SURPRISING FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I didn't think I could like a dark romance but the humor mixed with this story was a perfect blend.

Well, let’s see ... I’m a wife and a mother. I’m a writer who wants to make people smile when they read my words. I own a dog that sheds roughly eighteen pounds of hair every day. I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob. If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies. I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I'll love you forever.

I am a wife to one and a mom to two humans and one cat. I have a deep and abiding love for nachos - especially the kind with the liquid cheese, like from Taco Bell (sorry). I run on less than four hours of sleep thanks to copious amounts of Diet Coke. (Note: this paragraph is not sponsored by anyone except my hungry stomach.) 

As a Navy brat, I grew up all over the country, from California and up the east coast from Florida to New England and Colorado. I currently live in Idaho, where we have lots of potatoes and windmills. 

I write character-driven contemporary romance novels, heavy on the emotional connection. I LOVE love. I love writing about broken characters who find their soul mates.
