THE RULE MAKER (RULES BREAKERS) BY JENNIFER BLACKWOOD
Release Date: January 16, 2017
SYNOPSIS
Ten Steps to Surviving a New Job:
1. Don’t sleep with the client. It’ll get you fired. (Sounds easy enough.)
2. Don’t blink when new client turns out to be former one-night stand.
3. Don’t call same client a jerk for never texting you back.
4. Don’t believe client when he says he really, really wanted to call.
5. Remember, the client is always right—so you can’t junk punch him when he demands new design after new design.
6. Ignore accelerated heartbeat every time sexy client walks into room.
7. Definitely ignore client’s large hands. They just mean he wears big gloves.
8. Don’t let client’s charm wear you down. Be strong.
9. Whatever you do, don’t fall for the client. You’ll lose more than your job—maybe even your heart.
10. If all else fails, see rule number one again.

REVIEW: THE RULE MAKER (RULES BREAKERS) BY JENNIFER BLACKWOOD
The Rule Maker by Jennifer Blackwood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The good, the bad and the crazy sum up Ryder and Zoey. Zoey is a force of nature. She has a talent for design and a penchant for ending up in embarrassing situations. Case in point: sleeping with a client is a definite no - no, sleeping with the client's brother, a maybe. The Rule Maker is an amusing blend of temptation and heart. All kinds of wrong, she never feel so right. Jennifer Blackwood does guilty pleasure and she got it right. I missed out on The Rule Book, but that's easily rectifiable. The Rules Breakers series is a winner.

ARC Review: Big Shot by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde
Wes Sinclair had it going on that's for sure but the perfect book boyfriend was best friend Richard. Wes was "dream man" material with his sexy smile, arrogant demeanor and bedroom charm, however Richard with his smart mouth, hearty devotion and sense of humor was addictive as well. Natalie had it made on both sides of the spectrum. A good thing Richie boy was gay because Wes would have had some stiff competition. Big Shot had me in stitches when I wasn't salivating over the fireball that is Wes and Natalie. The battle of wills became a showdown of the heart. Ms. Phillips and Ms. Wilde are the power duo of the romance world. They seem to always get it right.

Release Date: January 17, 2017
SYNOPSIS
Sometimes enemies make really fun bedmates…
Navy SEAL Brayden Lucas assumes that when he detains a burglar at the Caribbean plantation he’s house-sitting, it’ll be a straightforward matter of figuring out who the would-be thief is and turning her in to the authorities if need be.
That was before he tied her up, and they started talking.
But the truth is there’s nothing straightforward about Arielle Day. Not the way she lights him up inside, or the secrets she’s obviously keeping.
And nothing is going to stop Brayden from exploring the explosive chemistry between them…

TELL ME TRUE (THE CINDERELLA PROJECT) BY ALLY BLAKE
Release Date: January 17, 2017
SYNOPSIS
April Swanson is so hopeful about all the possibilities New Year’s might bring, she’s practically Pollyanna. She’s hardly wishing for the world, after all – just a little less family crazy and the promotion she's perfect for. Surely then she can finally let loose and not strive to be such a good girl all the time.
For reformed bad boy, Finn Ward, hope is a four letter word, yet he has a New Year’s wish of his own - to silence his dark and twisted past before it unravels his future and hurts the people he cares about. No matter what.
So why would fate trick two such disparate souls into a fake first date? Maybe because they’ve both made the wrong wish...

Tell Me True by Ally Blake
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The Cinderella Project series blends the magic of adolescence with the drama of real life. The concept is complex and innovative, but may not always work. Tell Me True gives an optimist, an eccentric and a reformed bad boy center stage. April was flaky, Hazel flighty and Finn a hard to read puzzle, but for all of the craziness, Ms. Blake never skimped on the charm. Tell Me True, will not solve wars or mend broken hearts but in a world of chaotic turmoil, April, Hazel and Finn served a more important purpose. To take a reader out of their head and bring on a smile. It did what it was meant to do.

REVIEW: ETHAN (FARRADAY COUNTY) BY CHRIS KENISTON
Ethan by Chris Keniston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Farradays are full of surprises, blessed with love and touched by mystery. Heaven on earth is the best way to describe this close knit family. The trials they face make them stronger. I have been looking forward to Ethan ever since Declan. The snippets about his playboy bachelor ways and the surprising twist that left him, was a priceless intro to his story. Baby Brittany is as adorable as can be. The circumstances surrounding her mother, not so much. For people like Allison and Ethan who have witnessed some of the world's ugliest moments first hand, could this surprise end up being a blessing in disguise. Ms. Keniston continues to tickle the funny bone, touch the heart and create beautiful inspiring stories.

SWEET SOMETHINGS BY BARBARA FREETHY
Release Date: January 17, 2017
SYNOPSIS
From #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy comes a poignant, and charming romance about going home, falling in love and finding yourself.
Roman Prescott has always lived his life in the shadows. Being invisible meant staying alive—during his troubled childhood and his years as a soldier. But when an injury sends him back to the small town of Fairhope, he can't hide from his past or the light brought forth by a beautiful pastry chef.
Having lost her parents at a young age, Juliette Adams has had her share of tragedy, but now she fills her days making sweet desserts in her bakery and trying to recapture her happy childhood. Then she meets an attractive, brooding man, who is not only tearing down her old house but might just tear apart her fragile future. She's not interested in the tragic love story she was named after—she wants a love that will lift her up, that will last, and this sexy soldier has one foot out the door.
They both know they should ignore the sparks between them, but Valentine's Day fever has lit up the town and old love letters and long-buried secrets keep bringing them together. Can these two wary souls get past their fear of loving and losing to finally win the greatest love of all?
If so, what could be sweeter than that?
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
SWEET SOMETHINGS is a full-length standalone novel. But to add a cool twist, it's set in the world of a romantic movie called COFFEE SHOP that is being released on the same day! Both stories (the book and the movie) take place in the same small coastal town, and some of the characters cross over. You can read/watch each separately without missing a beat, as they each have their own independent storylines, but if you'd love to check out both, you'll have even more fun!

Erin Nicholas is a master at telling a story. She is one of the few authors that I have in my favorites column on every reading app from Kindle to Nook to Kobo. Her talent lies in forcing a reader to face some of the scariest moments with laughter, optimism and courage.

Home Run by Heidi McLaughlin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
What is wrong with this picture? I hate football, baseball, basketball and hockey but am a fan of sports romance. Sarah Robinson and Catherine Gayle got me curious, Skye Jordan and Carly Phillips reeled me in and authors like Heidi McLaughlin, Victoria Denault and Jami Davenport keep me hanging around. Dedicated, opinionated and full of surprises, an athlete on a mission can get the heart racing on and off the field, ice or court. The drama comes when the risks start to outweigh the gain. With Home Run, Ms. McLaughlin strikes all the right cords with her sexy bad boy and his equally tempting bad girl. Home Run has all the tools to make a fan out of a novice like me.

THEODORA (LADY ARCHER'S CREED) BY CHRISTINA MCKNIGHT
Release Date: January 17, 2017
SYNOPSIS
Friendship…
Lady Theodora Montgomery departed Miss Emmeline’s School of Education and Decorum for Ladies of Outstanding Quality to attend her first London Season—her three dearest friends by her side. With her sharp wit and skill on the archery field, Theo is far more interested in winning a large purse prize than securing a husband. But when she is unmasked on the tourney grounds, her face exposed to all, she fears her identity and days spent gallivanting around London will cause not only her undoing, but the downfall of her friends as well.
Loyalty…
Mr. Alistair Price, heir to the elderly Viscount Melton, arrived in London with his eight younger siblings in tow. He is charged with keeping his family name above reproach until the Season starts and his sister, Miss Adeline Price, is presented to society—though that proves far more difficult than Alistair ever expected when he discovers his rebellious sister climbing down the side of their townhouse and scurrying off to Whitechapel for an archery tournament. His focus remains on saving his family from the certain ruin and disgrace Adeline’s actions invited—until Alistair catches sight of another female archer, her arrow connecting with far more than the center of her target.
And honor above all…
With Theodora’s future—and that of her friends—in jeopardy, will she agree to a marriage devoid of affection, or risk everything for the man who won her heart?
More about the Lady Archer's Creed Series
A love of archery brings four young girls together to form The Lady Archer’s Creed. Through their mutual love of the sport, they solidify an unbreakable bond, and each woman has a unique quality that adds to their dynamic friendship:

Georgina, Lady Archer’s Creed Series (Book Two)
Lady Georgina makes the perfect financier. The forgotten daughter of a wealthy duke, she seeks to belong to something—or someone—by any means necessary.
Adeline, Lady Archer’s Creed Series (Book Three)
Miss Adeline is a natural leader. Having grown up in a large and often spirited family, she now allows no one to place her in the shadows.
Josephine, Lady Archer’s Creed Series (Book Four)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Positivity. Such a big word, with a simple meaning that means so much. I am drawn to strong heroines. So many times, women are looked at as in need of a rescuer but Ms. McKnight has spotlighted the opposite with her Lady Archer's Creed series. Strength of character breeds strong friendships, fearless women and great storytelling. I can go on all day about Theodora and her band of courageous compadres but the greatest message of all within the pages of this novel is: There is no one mold for a person to fit into. We are special for what we are and that inner light that sets our course not only makes us unique but beautiful.

Life of the Party by Kris Fletcher
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
It takes an excessive amount of energy to play the clown. To paste on a smile and put on a compelling show, when the world is falling apart around you. Oh, to be that girl. Kris Fletcher gives a front row seat to the roller coaster drama that Is Jenna Elias' life. From the good time girl who can turn on the charm. To the broken woman working to bounce back after numerous heartbreaks and tragic circumstances. To the woman on the verge of starting a scandal, Jenna is never dull. Jenna, may be a wild child but her spirit and heart are what I liked most about her. Cole was the spark that lit the fuse that brought joy, laughter and some of that fight back into Jenna's life. Life of the Party mixes wit with drama and delivers a gritty story of scandalous love and redemption.
