ARC Review - You Save Me by Shannon Myers!

BLURB:

"The last time I touched a man was in the backseat of a truck as we raced toward the hospital. I haven't felt a pull like I did that night."

Katya may have found freedom after being held captive, but she's still haunted by the past. Fearing for her safety, she flees Denver to start over again in the small mountain community of Cedar Ridge. She welcomes the anonymity, even as she retreats further inside herself.

Travis saw more than he wanted to during his tour in Iraq, and he's still living with the ghosts. He's content to remain in isolation with his secrets, until an incident forces him to re-evaluate that choice. 

Will Travis be able to save Katya when someone threatens her life or are demons from the past too strong to overcome? 

Can two completely broken people save each other?

MY REVIEW:

Shannon Myers did it AGAIN! She gave us another angst filled, emotions all over the place, sweet romance that had me on the edge of my seat. I cried, I sighed, I was constantly biting my lip with all the excitement and the twists and surprises that I just didn't see coming. 

I am ALWAYS eager for the next read by Miss Myers and you will see why with You Save Me. I fell in love with Miss Myers books with Operation Fit-ish and I have been HOOKED since! You Save Me is a suspense romance that will have you crying with everything that Katya and Travis have dealt with but at the same time you will fall madly in love with the romance and how two broken people can help heal each other. Travis who started off as a jerk, really turned out to be a real hero..at least in my eyes, and we get to see how much bravery Katya has as she struggles with everything that has happened to her. And let me tell you, the twists that were added was eye-opening and truly marvelous! You won't want it to miss this!

You Save Me gets a AMAZINGLY EMOTIONAL FIVE SHOOTING STARS! Its an addicting, heart-breaking, tender, angst filled romance that will leave you breathless and demanding more. I can't get enough of Shannon Myers books!

EXCERPT:

© TLM Productions LLC, 2017 Logan Her ankle turns, and Kass starts to fall. One swift move, and I scoop her up, into my arms. “Oh!” she cries, gripping my biceps. Her soft body is pressed against me, and her face is right at my chin. Her breath comes in quick pants, causing her breasts to rise and fall just beneath the thin material of her dress. With her sweater pushed back, I can see she’s not wearing a bra, and all the lust I’ve been fighting shoots straight to my cock. I know she feels it. Her lids lower, and her eyes are trained on my mouth. Her lips part, and I can just see the tips of her white teeth when she speaks, low and breathless. “Thank you.” Desire overrules my brain, and I don’t stop myself. I pull her to me, covering her mouth with mine. It’s not a gentle kiss. It’s rough and punishing. It’s all the anger and the hurt and the worry she’s put me through these last days. She meets me with equal strength. Her mouth moves with mine, and she tastes like mint and cool water. A little noise aches from her throat and fuck me, my dick gets harder. She’s soft in my arms, and my stomach fills with warmth, desire, possession. How can I still want her so badly? She used me. Breaking our lips apart, I look up at the sky. It’s thick with grey, swirling clouds. It mirrors the storm in my chest. Kass’s forehead drops to my neck. She’s panting, and I feel her beaded nipples against my chest. I want to pull them into my mouth and suck them until she moans. I want to lower my pants and lift her skirt. I want to shove her panties aside and fuck her right here on this beach. I want it to be hard and angry. I want her begging me to forgive her, begging me for more. I can see the whole thing, and it takes all my willpower to step back. “I’m sorry.” I hold her arms until I’m sure she has her balance, until I’m back in control. “I’ll escort you to the house.” “Yes.” Her voice is breathless.

Hot Stuff

Book 1

He's about to find out … She's not just one of the guys.

Annabelle Jordan and her two sisters were orphans in frilly dresses when they went to live with their sports-lawyer uncle in his world of locker rooms, bookies and gambling. Now the girls are publicists in their uncle's firm, The Hot Zone.

Despite her upbringing, Annabelle is all woman. She's naturally drawn to real men—like her latest client, businessman and former football legend Brandon Vaughn.

The chemistry is potent, undeniable, irresistible. Annabelle soon realizes that Brandon is much more than just another jock. And that she'd better hold on tight if she doesn't want to lose her heart.

Hot Number

Book 2

Micki Jordan is a tomboy as much at home on the playing field as in a locker room full of naked guys.

But the star publicist is looking to prove she's also an irresistible woman in order to get a second shot at professional baseball player and major league playboy, Damian Fuller.

Micki transforms herself into one hot number Damian can't help but notice and together they burn up the sheets and find themselves falling hard. Until Damian's past returns, threatening their future.

Hot Item

Book 3

Cool, collected Sophie Jordan loves her daily routine running her family's top sports management agency, as long as she gets to stay behind the scenes. But with big sister on maternity leave and little sis on her honeymoon, she's forced to step up to the plate. And a recent media crisis surrounding the disappearance of super-agent Spenser Atkins is not going to make the job any easier.

Enter star quarterback and notorious bad boy Riley Nash who, for reasons of his own, needs to track down Atkins. Up until now, Sophie has kept a strict no-dating-clients policy, but each day with Riley makes her rule near impossible to follow. With her job and her heart on the line, Sophie will need to make the toughest choice of her life!

Hot Property

Book 4

Just one short season ago, major league center fielder John Roper had it all: the looks—and personal life—of a sports hero and the public's adoration. But this hot property's lucky streak has run out. After a World Series disaster, fans diss him, shock jocks mock him and his dysfunctional family hassles him for money he really can't spare.

Now it's up to him, and Hot Zone publicist Amy Stone, to get his life back on track.

Amy finds it's easier said than done. What with the constant intrusions of his nutty family, a crazed fan playing stalker, and Roper's refusal to put his own needs first, she's starting to think that life in the fast lane isn't all it's cracked up to be. But when the two retreat to a secluded lodge, the sexy center fielder throws Amy a curveball—one she never saw coming...

Clam Jam by RC Boldt Cover Reveal!

Title: Clam Jam

Author: RC Boldt

Genre: Romantic Comedy/New Adult Romance

Cover Design: Letitia, RBA Designs

Release Date: January 10, 2017

Blurb

“Clam Jam”

Definition: the female equivalent of a cock block.

Example: You’re chatting with a guy you’re interested in and your friend comes along and lays claim to him. 

Maggie

That’s my life—except it’s worse. My friend who keeps “jamming” me is my gay roommate and if that isn’t a W.T.F. moment, I’m not sure what is.

Fact: He went home with three—yes, three—of the guys I had been so sure were into me.

Fact: He’s really pissing me off. I mean, hello? I’m trying to get back in the saddle, but I’ll never manage to get a boyfriend before the age of fifty if he keeps this up.

Fact: Secretly, I wonder what it would be like if he weren’t gay. Why do all the hot, sweet, tender-hearted guys have to be gay?

Fact: My gay-dar needs a serious tune-up.

Ry

The day I interviewed for the room to rent, everything changed. I knew I had met “the girl”, except there was one small problem: she didn’t want anything to do with men. I recognized a top-notch force field when I saw one. She’d been burned badly and didn’t want to deal with a heterosexual guy as a roommate. I could’ve turned around and found another place to live, but I wanted to live there—with her. 

So I had to go “undercover”. 

Fact: I’m in love with my roommate. 

Fact: I’m a likely candidate for carpal tunnel surgery since all the action I’ve had for the past year has been my hand. 

Fact: She’s going to hate me if I come clean now. 

Fact: I’m not giving up. Which means, I’ll just have to continue to run defense until I figure out a way to get Maggie to see the “real” me. 

The me that loves her. 

The me that would never do her wrong. 

Until then, I’ll keep running off every guy who shows any interest. 

Until then, I’ll continue to Clam Jam.

Excerpt

“Ryland James!” I bang on his bathroom door, hollering loudly. “Did you eat the last—”

The door swings open, drawing my speech to a sudden halt because … ooooh, sweet, dripping wet abs.

My eyes are riveted.

He’s got a towel wrapped around his waist, and I don’t even realize I’m moving until Ry releases a sharp hiss at my touch. Because my finger is tracing over the slight indentations in his abdominal muscles.

“Um …” He clears his throat, his voice husky and deep. “Mags?”

“Uh-huh,” I murmur absently, my fingertip stopping one of the trickling droplets of water on his skin, tracing it down over his belly button, and—

His fingers grasp my wrist, drawing my hand to a halt, and my eyes dart up to his in alarm because crap. That was like an out-of-body experience.

“Oh, crap. I’m sorry. I just really, um … crap.” That’s all I can utter. Nonsense. No one would believe I have my graduate degree if they heard me right now.

If my tongue had a voice of its own, it would probably say something like, “Just the tip. That’s all I want.” The tip of my tongue tracing over Ry’s abs, that is. You know, just to prove someone Photoshopped him. Or not.

Because I’ll take one for the team. I’m a giver like that. People might even think of canonizing me as a saint after all this. Really.

Oh, and then … Abracadabra! Poof! He’d no longer be gay, profess his undying love for me, and wouldn’t ever leave me for another guy.

Or woman.

Wow. That scenario even sounds crazy in my head.

Shaking off my thoughts, I take one more glance down at his abs—just one more glance—and that’s when I see it.

“Oh, boy,” I breathe out. Ry is hard, tenting the towel, and I really want it to drop. Accidentally, of course. Like an “oops” moment. Totally harmless and innocent.

Oh. My. God. I’m a horrible person. I’m thinking of my roommate’s penis! My roommate who has quickly become one of my best friends.

Oh, the shame!

Where did this inner slut come from? It’s like she’s been lying in wait—for him, apparently.

But, really. I can take a little peek, right?

Dancer Blog Tour with ARC Review and Excerpt!

DANCER by Jamie Schlosser

Series: The Good Guys; Book 2

Genre: New Adult | Contemporary Romance

Release Date: December 8th, 2016

— SYNOPSIS —

BRIELLE

Technically, I’m not a stripper. As a cage dancer, I don’t take all my clothes off and no one gets to touch me. I’m just the eye-candy.

And I can feel their eyes on me. I know they’re watching, but I don’t do this for them.

This is my time.

My life may not have turned out the way I thought it would, but I’m not complaining. From 9pm to 1am several days a week I get paid to feel sexy, to feel desired, to do what I love.

I always knew I wanted to be a dancer—I just didn’t realize I’d be doing it in a cage.

COLTON

Erectile dysfunction—two words that can cause a collective cringe from men everywhere. The doctors can call it ‘performance anxiety’ all they want, but that’s just a fancy way of saying my dick doesn’t work.

Just when I start to think there’s no hope for me, I see her. She’s gorgeous, sexy, and goofy as f*ck. She also looks really familiar but I can’t put my finger on it.

When I find out who she really is, my world is turned upside-down and everything seems to fall into place.

She’s not gonna make it easy for me, but I’ve never been one to back down from a challenge. She’s convinced I won’t stick around.

I’ll prove her wrong.

I’ll show her I’m one of the good guys.

*Although Dancer is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.

MY REVIEW:

Dancer was and is EVERYTHING I imagined it would be and more. It was full of passion, sweet sweet romance, had one incredibly GREAT guy and a woman who REALLY needed said GREAT guy. I have fallen in LOOOOVE with Jamie Schlosser's books since Trucker and I knew..100% without a doubt, that Dancer would be just as good...maybe even better than Trucker!

The one thing I enjoy so much about these Good Guy books is the romance is simple and so...normal yet incredibly well put together, I find myself enjoying the characters, the stories and the romance SO VERY MUCH! With Dancer I found myself sighing out loud, squirming  all over the place, smiling with a full fledged grin, and just chuckling at some of the scenes. This book made me happy and that is THE BEST feeling in the world. I am excited and eager to know what is next with this series. Trust me, you want a book with a GOOD GUY, Dancer will be the one that will win your heart...GUARUNTEED!

Dancer gets a SERIOUSLY GREAT, I -MUST -READ- IT- AGAIN- RIGHT- NOW FIVE SHOOTING STARS! Its beautiful, its fun, its full of life and love. In other words...A PERFECT READ!

— EXCERPT — 

My attention was snagged by a girl in the cage on the opposite side of the room because a guy had approached her. He tried to stick his hand through the bars, obviously intent on copping a feel. A bouncer quickly intervened, steering the intoxicated man over to a less crowded area.

Through body language and hand gestures, I could tell the bulky security guard was explaining that touching the girls was against the rules.

Drunk Dude huffed, gave the dancer one last lingering look, then staggered over to the bar.

My eyes trailed back over to the girl who was still moving around as though nothing happened and, suddenly, I couldn’t look away. I was captivated.

Not because she was hot—and she was hot—but because she was smiling. A big, genuine smile.

Her movements kept in time with the peppy beat of ‘Vacation’ by the Go-Go’s as she started hopping around.

Her big ‘80s-styled hair flew through the air as she spastically tilted her head from side to side. The long chocolate strands whipped around the confines of the cage and I swear I could see her laughing.

She was having fun. She loved this.

The jean shorts she had on were so short that I could see her ass cheeks hanging out of the bottom and my eyes traveled down her toned legs, then back up. Her waist was tiny and she had an hourglass shape with full breasts, which were jiggling with her every move.

This was entertainment.

Not only was this girl gorgeous and sexy—she was also goofy as fuck. She did some sort of head-banging move before twirling around like a ballerina.

She was still grinning and her chest shook with giggles. I could almost imagine what it would sound like to hear her laugh.

And as I watched, I found myself laughing along.

I felt a familiar tightness in my jeans and was beyond shocked when I glanced down to find myself stiff as a board.

ARC Review - Pop! By V. Kelly!

BLURB:

A sex contract seemed like a good idea, until she fell in love. 

When Symone Esquire fails to woo her best friend into taking her virginity, his rejection is the catalyst that inspires her to create a sex contract with a local legend, a man nicknamed “The Cherry Popper”, to take her virginity instead. 

Sid Cooperton is used to being solicited for sex, being the lead singer of a local rock band does have its perks . . . but when the nerdy, yet intriguing, Symone approaches him with a proposition to take her virginity in exchange for his college tutoring. It’s simply an offer he can’t refuse—even if his reputation for being a virginity exterminator is grossly exaggerated. 

Symone wasn’t expecting anything more than a business relationship with Sid, but she soon realizes there’s so much more to her sex tutor than just sex. Matters become even more complicated when her once uninterested best friend, suddenly wants to take their relationship to the next level like she always wanted. 

With the relationship she’s always dreamed of within her reach, Symone must make a decision: choose her best friend, the man she’s been in love with her whole life, or choose Sid, the man who has suddenly become the subject of all her fantasies. 

The contract has been signed: Symone’s virginity for Sid’s B average.

It was supposed to be simple, until she broke his only rule.

MY REVIEW:

Pop! By V. Kelly was ridiculously fun and seriously H-O-T! V. Kelly won me over fair and square with her unique way of writing and her astonishing way of creating laugh-your-butt-off moments along with characters that at first, you can't imagine coming together, but the chemistry is hard to deny and will make you laugh and weirdly enough, make you sigh with pleasure too! This story is pure fun and full of outrageousness and I freaking LOVED IT!

Pop will definitely make you roll over laughing and will have you flipping the pages quickly and once you finish, you will SO WANT TO DIVE INTO THE NEXT ONE ASAP just because you NEED to know how everything will play out. The witty dialogue was just so funny and had me giggling and shaking my head in complete amusement. God, I LOVED this book!

Pop! gets a SERIOUSLY FUN FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I am in LOVE with both Symone and Sid and am rooting for their, sure to be, fun and quirky happily ever after. 

ARC Review - Love Me Now by Fifi Flowers!

BLURB:

Nick Granger, an entertainment attorney, immersed himself in work logging ridiculous hours and avoiding a social life. The only connection he cared to make was with a certain ski bunny he met on a Christmas break trip years ago. 

Victoria Davine, once on the road to the advertisement world, found herself traveling a different path after life intervened. Content with her new direction, she finds herself decorating and improving other people's lives while pushing her own desires aside.

When unexpected guests announce their plans to invade for the holidays, Nick must cancel his yearly ski trip and quickly trim his apartment for Christmas. Lacking the time or talent to make his place look homey and inviting, his enthusiastic assistant hires St Davine Interiors to save her boss. And once she meets the owner, Victoria, she thinks maybe she is exactly the divine angel Nick needs to bring him back to the land of the living.

MY REVIEW:

A sweet, romantic, full of Holiday charm and spirit, Love Me Now by Fifi Flowers is a book to remember and is absolutely PERFECT for Christmas! Fif Flowers always has me looking forward to each new book of hers. Her writing captures my attention right away and her stories grip me with passion, love, pleasure, and happiness...EVERY TIME! And Love Me Now is just better and more special than I could of imagined or ever hoped for.

I really loved both Victoria and Nick. These characters have great personalities and I loved how well matched they were, both in and out of the bedroom. The romance is wonderfully sweet and so full of feelings and had me sighing so often. I felt happy and giddy and still do, even long after reading this. 

Love Me Now is a book that is an absolute treasure for the Holidays and I HIGHLY recommend it! I give this a DELICIOUSLY SWEET FIVE SHOOTING STARS! Its beautiful, its touching, and its full of Holiday spirit.
