ARC Review - Hacked & Foolish by Fifi Flowers!



BLURB:

Subway rides weren’t supposed to hack into your heart with a mere glance. They definitely weren’t supposed to have you fantasizing about romantic interludes.

Madison Bristol was waiting for her opportunity to represent authors in her beloved book world when Mr. Hottie appeared right before her very eyes.

Cooper Kitridge was getting used to a new sales position that had him skateboarding all over the city when the beautiful Train Girl captured his attention.

Lost to each other in the vast downtown area, a chance run-in reunites Madison and Cooper giving them the opportunity to get acquainted...to a point. 

What will happen when their career paths cross?

MY REVIEW:

RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME, HACKED AND FOOLISH IS A MUUUUUST READ AND WILL CAPTIVATE, DELIGHT, AND KEEP YOU ENGAGED FROM START TO FINISH! 

 Hacked and Foolish kept me entertained and happy. The story was a delight and solid proof why romance is my favorite genre (heck its my ONLY genre I like). It was sweet and heart felt and romantic and sexy to boot! The story is rich in personality and descriptions. The characters are adorable and charming and their romance is a completely sigh worthy experience. Loved every bit of this book!

Hacked and Foolish gets a CAPTIVATING FIVE DELIGHTFUL STARS! 


ARC Review - Southern Player (Charleston Heat #2) by Jessica Peterson!



BLURB:

I’m looking for a hot hookup with no strings attached. And I want my older brother’s best friend to step up to the plate... 

My dating history is lame. My experiences in bed? Even lamer. As the owner of a thriving business, I’m used to calling the shots. But one place I don’t always want to be in charge is in the bedroom. 

Enter Luke Rodgers. My brother’s best friend. Former major league baseball player. A guy who now hangs out on his farm, sweaty and shirtless, as he nurses a shoulder injury. 

If the rumors are true, he also likes to work up a sweat behind closed doors. A total MVP in the sack. 

Just the take charge guy I’m looking for. 

With Luke and I, it’s game on. And it’s all good until Luke decides he wants forever, and he wants it with me. 

I’m just not convinced I can trust Luke. Will he keep playing the field and break my heart? Or is he really ready to hang up his cleats for good? 

SOUTHERN PLAYER is a full length, STANDALONE romance.

MY REVIEW:

HOT STEAMY SOUTHERN HEAT WITH DELICIOUS FLAIR AND ONE AMAZING PLOT! Southern Player is scrumptious! Rich in passion and personality and the characters easily won my heart from the moment we meet them. The story was a seductive slow burn that was intense and heartfelt and wholly fun and all around sexy. I couldn't get enough and I want MORE!

Netgalley ARC Review - Defending Morgan by Susan Stoker!



BLURB:

Protection leads to passion in New York Times bestselling author Susan Stoker’s dangerously hot Mountain Mercenaries adventure.


Dispatched to the Dominican Republic to rescue a kidnapped child, former Navy SEAL Archer “Arrow” Kane makes a startling discovery: another hostage—Morgan Byrd, a very beautiful and very well-known missing person who disappeared off the streets of Atlanta a year ago. She’s brave, resilient, and unbroken. All Arrow wants to know is why she ended up in a shack in Santo Domingo. All he feels is the desire to protect.



Morgan is done being the victim and is determined to find out who hates her so much that they want her gone—but not dead. Until then, she has Arrow, an alpha stranger who’s offering a warm and safe place to hide. But as the passion between them flares, so does the fear that whoever took Morgan will do anything to get her back. For Arrow, protecting this woman with a mysterious enemy is the most dangerous mission of his life. And it’s worth every beat of his heart.

MY REVIEW:

These Mountain Mercenaries stories are just getting better and more tempting with each new release! Defending Morgan was GREAT! Plenty of action and a fabulously addicting slow burn romance that seemed more realistic and special. Arrow is exactly the kind of hero you would want on your side. Caring, protective, good looking and patient, his full dedication to Morgan as she acclimates from her ordeal was heart warming and beautiful. And Morgan was incredible! Strong, smart and determined to move on from what had happened to her and LIVE. She has got to be one of the strongest heroines I have ever met and I loved her to pieces.

Defending Morgan is one of those books you will think of fondly and smile about long after you finish it. It is the kind of romance I will definitely re-read over and over and still find something new to love about it that I missed the first time around. This book is THE reason why Susan Stoker is my go to author. Its EVERYTHING good and EVERYTHING I crave.

Defending Morgan gets a FANTASTIC FIVE SHOOTING STARS!

Max Hilton is my high school nemesis turned billionaire. And tomorrow I deliver his lunch order. In a cat costume.
You know he’s going to love it. He’ll smile that smirky smile, sitting there all superior in his gleaming tower, the wealthiest and most notorious playboy in all of New York, the king of everything.
Turns out it wasn’t curiosity that killed the cat—it was mortification.

Excerpt:
“Are we going with cheesy puffs today?” I ask. “Cheesy puffs,” he says hoarsely. “Good job,” I say. “You made an excellent choice. And just for that, you get an extra bag!” He tightens his jaw as I snatch up an extra bag. I’m keeping him off-balance. I feel like I’m really nailing his system today. I head right for him, all the way around his desk, holding his gaze, because that’s what you do to show a dog that you’re in charge. It hits me here that holding a man’s gaze and walking steadily toward him, never looking away, is also an incredibly sexy thing to do. Every inch of my skin feels alive with excitement. He swivels away from his desk as I near, facing me with that strangely serious expression. His shirt cuffs are rolled partway up his muscular forearms. His hands rest on his hard thighs, fingers relaxed. Nails trimmed short. Pianist-short. Some habits die hard. And those thumbs. They’re the same thumbs he stuck in his belt loops while he sang with all of that sweet goofiness during that lost summer. Though science tells us that the cells of the body replace themselves over time—nine years for an entirely new body. So he really is a different person in every way. I stop in front of him, heart jackhammering in my chest, remembering the way he’d sing to me during that lost summer. Even when there was a full auditorium, it was as if he was singing to me and me alone, gaze dancing under that floppy hat. The song was about young, hopeful love. It’s how I felt that summer. It meant nothing to him. A dalliance of proximity. The second we were back at school, he returned to his cold and cynical mode. Too cool for me. Quizzically, he tilts his head. “Mia?” Have I been standing there weirdly long? I think back to his book. If you feel your control slipping, simply give her another reward for something. “And as a reward for extra predictable behavior…” I toss one bag onto his desk and pull open the other one with a loud crinkle-snap. His eyes flare. I remove one puff from the bag and hold it out to him. “Open,” I whisper, pulse racing. “Open for your prize.” He watches me sternly. Opening for his prize is the last thing he’s going to do. Nobody pushes Max Hilton around. The book doesn’t have instructions for outright rebellion. The book doesn’t say how sexy that might be. How a person’s beauty can squeeze deep into your belly. How you might really want to kiss him. To straddle him and sink into him and make him remember. Make him come back. “That’s not open.” I nudge his lower lip with the cheese puff. “Do better,” I say. He grabs my wrist. My breath quickens. His big, warm hand, encircles my wrist snugly and completely. His challenging gaze deepens, like he can see right into me. The bright orange cheese puff falls from my fingers. Slowly, he pulls my hand toward him, pinning me with his eyes. I swallow, mouth dry. “Are you going to eat my fingers instead?” I whisper. He brushes his lips over my knuckle, soft and warm and smooth as velvet.

Misadventures of a Curvy Girl
by Sierra Simone
Release Date: 19th February 2019


Synopsis
For the first time in her life, Ireland Mills is happy with her body. No more fad diets, no more hiding from every camera in the room, no more low self-esteem. She’d rather be alone than with someone who’ll only love her if she’s skinny.
Caleb Carpenter and Ben Weber are everything Ireland and the Kansas Chamber of Commerce dreamed of when conceptualizing the “Real Kansas” promotional campaign. They’re handsome, young, educated, and totally dedicated to their small prairie town.
When Ireland’s Prius gets stuck on a Kansas dirt road and a massive storm rips through town, she’s left stranded with nowhere to turn but to Caleb and Ben. These two hunky country boys are impossible to ignore, but could they ever be interested in her as well?
Caleb and Ben are more than interested…and they’re willing to share. After their first night together, they know this has to be more than a one-time thing. They need to make her theirs forever. But can they convince Ireland they love her, curves and all?
****
Misadventures is a romantic series of spicy standalone novels, each written or co-written by some of the best names in romance. The stories are scandalous, refreshing, and, of course, incredibly sexy. They’re the perfect bedside read, a ‘quick blush’ for the reader who loves a page-turning romance.

MY REVIEW:

AN IMPOSSIBLY IN YOUR FACE STUNNING READ THAT WAS ALMOST INSPIRATIONAL, EMPOWERING, BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL!

Misadventures of A Curvy Girl WAS EVERYTHING AMAZING AND SPECIAL TO ME! I pictured the heroine to be what I always consider a real woman to look like: Beautiful with plenty of curves, personality, sweetness and with a sense of adventure. The romance was almost inspiring and so incredibly seductive and extraordinary. I fell in love with the plot and storyline and found it impossible to stop reading. I didn't want it to end. There was so much heart and emotion in this romance that really hit me in the heart and made me want to love my own curves. The fact that this amazing heroine had two incredibly good looking men who desired her and wanted her for exactly how she is was so SOOOOO good to me. It honestly made me believe that there are men out there that ADORE curves and I liked that. This was INCREDIBLE!

Blurb

She’s not a party girl anymore…

Sophie Dean has worked long and hard to shed the rock-n-roll bad girl reputation she earned at college. With her rebellious days behind her, Sophie now uses the prestige of the Dean family name and money to bankroll humanitarian aid. The only part of her past she can’t leave behind is the major crush she has on Finn Jenkins. When danger from an unknown quarter threatens Sophie’s latest undertaking and she needs protection, fate steps in and delivers a second chance with Finn.

He's fought his feelings for too long…

When Finn returns home after two tours of duty as a Navy SEAL, it doesn’t take long to realize he still has feelings for Sophie, who is no longer the irresponsible young woman he walked away from all those years ago. An assignment to escort Sophie and an orphaned Pakistani boy to the Pacific Northwest should have been an easy mission—and it’s the perfect opportunity to get re-acquainted with Sophie and finally confess how he feels. But when someone threatens the orphan in their care, Sophie and Finn must set aside their feelings to save the child’s life…and their own.

Together, they’ll have to risk it all.

Excerpt

Sophie perused him carefully. She tracked his entire body from his overgrown military haircut to his favorite boots. It was good that SEALs had incredible mastery over their bodies or her baby blues lingering on his stomach and groin would be a problem, a very specific problem that sparked to life with the hope of having her full attention.
“Let me translate Finn speak. You probably have twenty to thirty stitches and it is a big deal.”
Despite his intensive training—and practice—in lying under interrogation, he never got anything past this meddling woman. And why did he hope she’d always be meddling in his life? “Soph, all you need to know is that I’m fine. Unless, of course you want to play nurse and examine me?”
Sophie’s eyes widened, her forehead furrowed as she tugged on her pillow soft lower lip. “Nice try, Jenkins. I know you’d never let me near you.”
Finn couldn’t breathe. His heart rate ratcheted up five knots. The way Sophie said it was like a question, not her usually flippant “whatever” tone. Was she hoping for a different answer than his usual? A man could dream.
She brushed away a curl that had fallen out the ponytail she’d pulled her hair into. And Finn couldn’t look away from the feminine gesture. Hunger jamming his throat.
“Did someone shoot you or stab you this time?”
He didn’t see any purpose in discussing how close he came to bleeding out and how many times he had been close to dying on this last mission. Or the previous ones this past decade and more. Tender and sensitive, Sophie kept him on edge. He didn’t want her seeing him as weak, or vulnerable. And to be honest, though he knew he should think of Sophie as a strong, resolute woman—as she’d proved herself during her kidnapping—he didn’t want his recollections of potential death and pain to flood her mind. “Not your problem.”
Sophie uncrossed her leg and leaned back in the chair, not fooling Finn for a minute on how he hurt her feelings. Her tell was the way her eyes widened and she chewed her lower lip, a habit she’d learned from her heartless bastard of a father. “What did Mr. Brophy say about Tariq? Did he say how he knew Tariq’s Uncle Parvez? And isn’t it an amazing coincidence that Jeremy Brophy lives on Orcas Island?”
Finn didn’t believe in coincidences but he kept his thoughts to himself. He didn’t need another talk by Sophie on serendipity and synchronicity.
Sophie leaned forward, her eyes narrowing on his face. “I’m not sure what exactly is going on, but your last mission must have been a doozy.” She threw herself back in the seat. “Oops, I forgot. I’m not supposed to mention it. It’s classified.”
This was another reason Finn hadn’t declared his feelings for Sophie. She could never be a military wife, never tolerate all the classified secrets he had to keep. Oh, and Sophie was the daughter of a tech billionaire who was a press magnet. Not exactly a low-profile wife for a Special Forces undercover operator. Finn didn’t expect her father would ever approve of Finn’s prospects. And Finn never wanted to be the man who married her for money. For all those reasons he’d be hesitant about approaching Sophie. Yet since her kidnapping, he’d been battling all those negatives with the desire to keep her safe in his arms.
“Which is it? How badly you were injured or you don’t want to talk about your conversation with Jeremy Brophy?”
“With your skills, you should work for the CIA.”
It was hard to describe the way Sophie’s forehead bunched together and her shoulders tightened, still he always knew when he’d crossed a line.
“Finn, why are you being more of a jerk than usual?”
Because his wound was aching and the reunion he imagined with Sophie the entire time he was lying in the hospital was playing out with another man touching her, whispering sexy stuff into her ear.

How exactly has one good deed landed me in the penalty box?

Tomboy, an all-new, sexy romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Avery Flynn, is available now!

Tomboy_1600x2400

Ice Knights defenseman Zach Blackburn has come down with the flu, and my BFF—his PR manager—begs me to put my nursing degree to use and get him back to health. Of course she would call in a favor for the most hated man in Harbor City.
But when he’s finally on the mend and I’m sneaking out of his place, everything goes sideways. Paparazzi spot me and pictures, plus accusations that I slept with him, fly faster than a hockey puck.
At first, all of Harbor City wants my blood—or to give me a girlie-girl makeover. But then…the team finally wins a game. And now this fickle town wants me with the big jerk twenty-four seven.
Argh. I never slept with him the first time! But no one will listen. Then the grumpy bastard goes and promises to break his no-fan-appearances rule to help raise money for a free health clinic—but only if I’m rink-side at every game. That’s not a deal I can turn down.
But when the team keeps winning, and I realize there’s more to him than his bad reputation, suddenly remembering to keep my real hands off my fake date gets harder and harder to do.

MY REVIEW:

AHHHHHHH I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVED TOMBOY SO EFFING HARD! Fallon is a ball buster and I LOVED THAT about her! And Zach, oh he was a surprise too: Sexy and holding a major grudge from something I really couldn't blame him for. He was also surprisingly sweet and caring when he let his inner self out. Fallon really gave him a run for his money too. She didn't put up with his crap and gave as good as she got. She is a heroine I definitely could see myself being besties with!

This rom-com is outrageously entertaining! Fun, sexy, and loaded with plenty of sweetness and snark, this book had me smiling for days! I fell in love with these Hartigans from the first book but I have to say, Tomboy may have beat ALL of them in the TOP READ department with this particular heroine and hero. The story was so witty and funny and incredibly sexy with a sprinkle of sweet that made me sigh. LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF TOMBOY!

Tomboy - Teaser 4 AN.jpg

Excerpt:

The blaring ring echoed off the bare walls of the nearly empty mansion as Fallon Hartigan marched down the hallway with murder on her mind. As soon as she got to the source of that ringing, she was going to give Harbor City what they wanted most and kill the most-hated man in hockey. Sure, she might get arrested, but the metro area would probably throw her a parade. She turned the corner and stopped dead in her tracks outside the open double doors leading to the overpriced defenseman’s bedroom. The man—who’d been puking his guts up less than twenty-four hours ago—was in the middle of a king-size bed, wearing nothing but a smirk and a bed sheet that was draped so low across his hips that she could see miles of those V lines south of his hard abs. Like she was a newbie nurse on her first set of rounds, her breath caught, and a blush she most definitely did not want to appear started to burn her cheeks. Damn her pasty Irish skin. Still, she had to admit, if only to herself, that the view was fucking amazing. The man was a professional athlete and had the muscular, inked-up chest to prove it. Practically against her will, her gaze traveled over the plentiful ink across his pecs and lingered a few breaths too long on his silver nipple rings. Seemingly indifferent to her perusal, Zach swiped his thumb across his cell phone’s screen, ending the incessant ringing. “About time,” he said, his voice a mellow, low rumble. “I’ve been ringing for you for almost ten minutes.” He dropped his phone on the small table next to the bed and then lounged against the headboard, managing somehow to look down his nose at her even with their current height differential. Forget killing him, she was going to go after her bestie. It was Lucy’s fault Fallon was even here. She squeezed her eyes shut and counted to ten as she recalled all the reasons why the man was a menace and not the solution to her three-month-long sexual dry spell. He was a selfish player. He was surly to the press, to the fans, and probably to his neighbor’s dog. He’d banged a puck bunny tattooed with the logo of the Ice Knights’ most hated rival. She counted to another ten while remembering why she couldn’t off him. He was Lucy’s client. He was, for some incomprehensible reason, one of her bestie’s friends. He had the skills to turn around the Ice Knights’ sofar shitty season if he could remove the giant chip from his shoulder and start playing as if he actually liked hockey again. Exhaling a deep breath, she reopened her eyes and barely noticed his muscular shoulders this time as she moved away from the door. There. All better. She’d managed to pack away the Hartigan attitude, and her temper hadn’t even made an appearance. Bully for her. Now to get back to that cool, clinical demeanor she strove for whenever she was on the clock. “You rang?” she asked, managing to keep a good 73 percent of her annoyance out of her tone as she walked farther into the room.

About Avery

Needing a romance fix, she turned to Harlequin’s four books a month home delivery service to ease the withdrawal symptoms. That worked for a short time, but it wasn’t long before the local book stores’ staffs knew her by name. Avery was a reader before she was a writer and hopes to always be both. She loves to write about smartass alpha heroes who are as good with a quip as they are with their *ahem* other God-given talents. Her heroines are feisty, fierce and fantastic. Brainy and brave, these ladies know how to stand on their own two feet and knock the bad guys off theirs.

But seeing Max every day, I’m discovering a side of him I didn’t even know existed--he’s not the jerky guy I thought he was. He has this smile he shows only to me, and it melts my heart. His touch sends shivers down my spine. And those forbidden kisses are driving me wild.
Falling for him was not in my plan.
Am I breaking his rules or will his rules break me first?

About Annika:
Annika Martin loves fun, dirty stories, hot heroes, and wild, dramatic everything. She enjoys hanging out in Minneapolis coffee shops with her writer husband, and also likes birdwatching at her bird feeder alongside her two stunningly photogenic cats, especially when she should be writing. She’s heavy into running, music, saving the planet, taking long baths, and consuming chocolate suckers. She’s worked a surprisingly large number of waitressing jobs, and has also worked in a plastics factory and the advertising trenches; her garden is total bee-friendly madness and her most un-favorite word is nosh or possibly fob. A New York Times bestselling author, she has also written as RITA award-winning author Carolyn Crane.
