Nicole by Teresa Gabelman



Damon's disposition is still quite charming, “ges, they are still working,” Damon growled. “And the next mothereffer who asks me is going to get punched in the mouth. Jesus, Steve is the only one who hasn’t asked.” I liked seeing the women become strong and fighting for what they want and just not taking their men's crap.

REVIEW:
Charlie isn't a bashful one, "my nerves kick in , and I start to throw out the first question that comes to mind. “So, why isn’t there a Mrs. Mitchell? I’m sure you aren’t lacking prospects.” Hudson is just so cute, "I’m not sure if this is weird, but would you like to go on a date with me tomorrow night?” I liked this book, I loved Hudson.



Excerpt

The smart and rational side of my brain seems to be on a break because all I’m capable of doing is raking my eyes over Mr. Basketball Shorts. He’s tall with broad shoulders and the most pronounced abs I’ve ever seen up close. The baseball cap on his head is turned backward, and he’s currently wiping his face off with what I assume to be his shirt. That is the only reason he hasn’t seen me yet, and why I haven’t seen his face yet either. But I’m going out on a limb here and say it’s probably as gorgeous as the rest of him.

My eyes drift back to his drool-worthy chest, following the beads of sweat that are slowly running down his torso to the V-shaped lower abs until they disappear into the pair of shorts that sits low on his hips.

Sudden heat shoots through my body, making my cheeks tingle from the force of it. My brain uses that moment of distraction to finally kick back in again, reminding me of the situation at hand.

A total stranger is standing in my kitchen.

Half-naked.

And we’re all alone in this house.

The Promise by R.L. Mathewson



Reed tends to make some strong arguments:
            “Why are you holding my ***?” she couldn’t help but ask when she felt a large hand cup her ***.
           “For safety,” Reed said, even as he cleared his throat and shifted his grip back to her pants.
Joey likes to observe things, “not that I’m aware of,” she said, absently noting that he had a really nice ***. She was a sucker for a nice ***..." I loved this book, I fell in love with Joey and Reed, this series is just full of all sorts of humor.

Can't Match This by Xavier Neal





Gideon sure knows how to plan a nice night out, “now, I’d like to go enjoy a glass of whiskey, a great cut of steak, and watch Robocop on the couch.” Gideon often times takes offense to what comes out of his woman's mouth, “pity food?” Gideon promptly inquires. “What the eff does that mean?” The lack of immediate answering causes him to snatch the remote and return the movie to its still form. He nudges me with the side of his dress shoe to command my attention to his. As soon as our stares meet, he repeats, “What the eff are you implying, Lenny?” I liked thiS book, I fell in love with Gideon.

Remind Me by Samantha Chase




Jake just loves to show off for his woman, "sitting up quickly, he ripped the shirt off– buttons flying in every direction. “Wow,” she panted. “That was incredibly sexy.” Jake really knows how to woo a woman, "he put the truck in park and grinned at her. “We’ll have some sandwiches.” He paused. “Later.” I liked this book, I fell in love with Jake.

BLOG TOUR REVIEW: Irresistible by Melanie Harlow

Irresistible - BT Banner.jpg

“Sexy, heartfelt--did I mention sexy? With the perfect touch of the forbidden, Melanie Harlow has outdone herself with single dad Mack and Frannie’s story!”

-- Ilsa Madden-Mills, Wall Street Journal bestselling author

 

Irresistible, an all-new fun and swoony standalone from USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow, is available now!

Irresistible FOR WEB.jpg
I’m a full-time single dad to three daughters and CFO at Cloverleigh Farms. I don’t have time to fall in love—I’m too busy trying to run a business, keep the red socks out of the white laundry, and get the damn pillowcases on without owing a dollar to the swear jar. Sure, Frannie Sawyer is beautiful and sweet, but she’s twenty-seven, the boss’s daughter, and my new part-time nanny—which means she’s completely off-limits. It’s bad enough I can’t stop fantasizing about her, what kind of jerk would I be if I acted on the impulse to kiss her? (Exactly the kind of jerk you’re thinking.) Actually, I’m worse than that—because I didn’t stop with a kiss, and now I can’t stay away.  She makes me feel like myself again. She reminds me what it’s like to want something just for me. She’s everything I ever needed, but nothing I ever imagined. I’m a former Marine. I should have had the strength to resist her from the start. But I didn’t. And now I have to choose between the life I want and the life she deserves. Even if it means giving her up.

REVIEW:
I'm glad that Mack can sort of realize his faults, "...had I said something insensitive without realizing it? Goddarn, I was effing clueless about women." I loved Mack's kids they just didn't beat around the bush, “that you’re being an idiot and you need the hard words.” The man is quite the romantic, “I’m not either. Doesn’t mean I don’t want to rip your clothes off and eff you senseless right now.” I liked this book, I loved Mack, but it was safe to say his girls stole the show.

Irresistible - Teaser 4 an.jpg

Excerpt:

  I was holding my breath. I wasn’t even sure why, but it was something about the way Mack was looking at me. And the tension in his body—the taut muscles in his neck. The grip of his fingers on the edge of the counter. The set of his jaw. It gave the impression of restraint. Like he was holding himself back. Something unfamiliar hummed in the air between us. I could feel it—he wanted me the way I wanted him. No wonder I couldn’t breathe. Then he cleared his throat and turned away from me, cutting off the current. “Sure. Everybody needs to make mistakes now and then.” I’d forgotten I’d even asked the question. He turned the sink on, rinsed his dishes, and placed them in the dishwasher. I stood there staring at his muscular back, at the width of his shoulders, at the snug fit of his jeans on his butt. If I were his and he were mine, I’d go over and wrap my arms around his waist, press my cheek to his back. Then he’d turn around, winding his arms around me. He’d lower his lips to mine, and— “I should get you home,” he said, interrupting my fantasy. “Want to grab your coat?” “Sure.” But I didn’t really want to leave. I wanted to stay in this warm, chaotic house with him and the girls. Pretend I belonged here. Pretend I belonged to him.

REVIEW:
Brian is just so good to his girl, “Tthere will be more kisses, baby,” he says, leaning in and kissing my lips softly, “this afternoon, tonight, tomorrow.” Brian likes to give his girl some semblance of freedom, “As long as I’m the only one on the island, you can walk around naked..." I liked this book, I loved Brian.

 
  When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...

RELEASE REVIEW: Would Be King by Kim Karr




Title: Would Be King
Author: Kim Karr
Genre: Standalone Royal Romance
Release Date: February 27, 2019



Blurb

A dare turns into so much more…

All I want to do is get to work on time.
But a Prince Harry look-a-like is trying to steal my cab,
And I’ll fight for it to the bitter end.

In the midst of our verbal battle,
I discover I lost my wallet.
So I bargain—a free ride for a kiss.

What starts out as innocent quickly steams up the windows.
His lips are soft, and when he tugs me closer,
I press my entire body against his hard muscles, and practically strip him from his expensive suit.
This is the best taxi ride of my life.
Until it ends just as quickly as it began.
Embarrassed over my behavior, I rush out without so much as a goodbye.

But fate, that bitch,
Has us pounding on the same locked door.
Already knowing I’m going to be fired,
I curse my new boss and his new rules.
The hot suit laughs, and dares me to tell my new boss what a dick he’s being.
With nothing to lose, I accept.

Never in a million years could I have imagined he is my new boss.
Arrogant.
Sexy.
And totally off-limits.
Dating him is against the rules.
His rules.
He doesn’t seem to care.
Until I dare him not to fall in love with me.

Even then he says that’s easy.
That the only four-letter word he lives by is duty.
But this would-be-king is about to fall hard…for a commoner.

REVIEW:
Max is just a charmer, “are you asking me if I’m going to eff you even though you work for me and it’s against policy?” Max just has a way with words, “it’s not a date,” I tell her very matter of fact. “It’s a effing session followed by a quick bite to eat, so it doesn’t matter what you’re wearing, it’s only coming off.” I liked this book, I loved Max.

REVIEW:
Knox is just a real charmer, "he grins, not that cocky arrogant grin that makes my blood run cold, but one of pure humor. “You are by far the most difficult woman I have ever met." Knox knows how to knock his woman off her feet, “rubbing my woman’s feet,” Knox says so casually as he drops one shoe then the other to the floor at his side. I am still stuck on the “my woman” comment. “Now figure out what you want to eat and let me work my magic.” I liked this book, I fell in love with Knox.

In a Badger Way by Shelly Laurenston



I loved Stevie the girl just has a calm about everything, so nonchalant at times, “Irene Conridge does hate me,” Stevie confirmed. “She probably is trying to kill me.” Shen doesn't understand his woman's mating habits, "Stevie walked over to Shen, walked around him, and headed toward the stairs that led to the bedrooms. Shen was silent for a few seconds until he asked, “Woman . . . did you just rub up against my back?" Stevie really doesn't appreciate her man's sense of humor, "he pointed toward the TV. “Storage Wars is on right now.” Stevie’s eyes opened wide and her lips parted. “I’m kidding, I’m kidding,” Shen said quickly, yanking her back onto his lap before she could get up and storm away."

Revel by Shey Stahl



Revel's wooing skills...are...well... They sure are original, “every time you open your mouth to tell me off, all I can think about is shutting you up with my ***k shoved down your throat.” Revel is a very territorialman, "...breathing against my neck, he whispers, “No one calls you princess but me.” I liked this book, I fell in love with Revel, the man was tortured and I kinda liked it.

The Wedding Deal by Cindi Madsen



Lance really does enjoy teasing his girl, "she raised an eyebrow in warning. “What? You said compliments were okay. Remember how much you like my beard?” He reached up and ran his hand across it, a mischievous twist to his lips." Charlotte is just a tad bit clumsy, "Her cheeks flushed deeper as she shook her head. “it was embarrassing enough to fall asleep on you . Now I’m grabbing your crotch.” He doubted replying that he was okay with her grabbing his crotch would make her feel any better." Lance really doesn't like to share, “fine. If I leave your side, other guys will hit on you, and that’ll p*** me off and then I’ll get into a fight, which would be bad PR.” I liked this book, I fell in love with Lance.

The Perfect Catch by Joanne Rock




Josie is easily distracted, "...a leather tool belt hung low on his hips over a pair of faded jeans. “Oh.” She lowered her hand, nearly forgetting why she’d come over in the first place. “Hi.” Cal is a real considerate man, “nevertheless, we should find a bed.” He wrapped her in strong arms.

Brentworth's woman us just full of all sorts of surprises, “you are supposed to be shy and nervous, not demand I disrobe.” I liked this book, I fell in love with Brentworth.

Blurb:
"It isn’t supposed to hurt."
We don’t always choose who we fall in love with.
It just so happened that I fell in love over a box of crayons and a smile.

Growing up, it was always the three of us: Elijah Donahue, with his genius IQ and a smile he only shared with me. Our best friend, Aaron Esposito, with his crystal-blue eyes and a smile he shared with everyone. And me, Stella McCarty, the girl with the chapped lips and unruly hair. Then we grew apart, which is putting it mildly.

I felt the loss, though my heart belonged to Elijah and his to me.

When my father passed away, we grew back together again. I couldn’t have gotten through that time if not for the both of them. But then, when I graduated from college and moved back home from London, it became obvious that I had been oblivious to the fact that they had never stopped hating one another.

Elijah and Aaron’s hate for one another had apparently been hindered by their love for me.
Only, I didn’t know that they both loved me in the same way.
And I wished I never did.

Love isn’t supposed to feel like this.
It isn’t supposed to hurt.

This is Stella's book. Hearts So Big is book 3 in the Timeless Love series.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43444294-hearts-so-big?ac=1&from_search=true


REVIEW

Stella's man is just so poetic, “Never put my ***k in anyone without protection.” She closes her eyes and sighs. “Never wanted to until you. It’s always been you.” Our man likes to make sure his woman is go to go in every situation, “I have a handgun. Gino gave it to me. You get nervous, it’s under the bed in a lock box. Code’s the same as your house code.” I liked this book, I loved the characters.

“I let my inhibitions go, and they fell in the wrong place. I didn’t know he would be my unraveling. I didn’t know he was twenty-five.”

A single mother often lives by certain rules, and Angela Petrov has made certain to adhere to hers: Mom first, career second, and no man will meet her child unless they will be in her life long-term.

However, with her daughter now in college, the company she has worked at for over a decade facing major changes, and no lover in sight, Angela’s life has lost all its carefully construed and configured organization.

When news that the annual, employee, Labor Day party in the Hamptons will still be held, Angela tries to bail out. However, her best friend and coworker, Autumn, convinces her otherwise.

Turns out that, while attempting to enjoy the elite Hampton nightlife with her coworkers, she meets a much-younger, tall, dark, and sexy man who offers her an escape for the long weekend. So, throwing caution to the ocean breeze, she accepts his offer of a true time-out in life, focusing only on time between the sheets with no … strings attached.
What happens when you allow yourself to let go of life’s stresses, release inhibitions, and embrace desire?
You chase regret.

My dreams were always in black and white, once in a while, I’d be gifted something gray.

Until her.

Then, I broke her. I tore her up. I shattered her. But she was breathing, living, and I knew damn well, she was on the verge of loving, but it couldn’t be me.

I turned from her for the red white and blue. Because war, destruction, hell even death was more welcome than the possibility of hurting her.

I didn’t deserve her, and she sure as f*@^ didn’t deserve me.
