HOT PUCK (ROUGH RIDERS HOCKEY) BY SKYE JORDAN
Release Date: October 3, 2016
SYNOPSIS
From the New York Times bestselling author who brought you the adrenaline junkie, scorchingly sexy stuntmen of Renegades. Skye Jordan delivers another sizzling series starring her mouthwatering brand of high-octane, insomnia-inducing heroes.
The pressure has never been more intense for Rough Riders’ star defenseman Beckett Cross. With his contact expiring, Beckett has to live up to his badass reputation every minute of every game to earn the next big deal. A deal that will secure a stable home for his five-year-old daughter. So when an injury on the ice threatens to send him to the ER, he fights protocol—until the feisty EMT refuses to take no for an answer. Beckett likes his women assertive, and the spark between them is nothing short of scorching. Her indifference to his fame and money only intrigues him more. And by the time he peeks beneath her tightly sealed edges to see her beautiful but deeply wounded soul, he’s in way too deep to pull back.
After years of shutting herself off from men, Eden is tempted by the heat that blazes when she is around the NHL’s most notorious bad boy—even toying with an inkling of “what if”. But life has taught her how painfully that kind of fire burns. And how deeply it scars. So Eden denies the spark room to grow, the same way she shut out the violence from her past, focusing instead on her career and finishing paramedic school. She’ll never rely on a man for money or security again.
But when the spark between them becomes too hot to ignore, one night isn’t enough. Soon, Beckett and Eden find themselves caught between desire and fear—with painful pasts pulling them in one direction and a fragile new love pulling them in another. All while the family and careers that matter most hang in the balance.
Introducing the Rough Riders’ Hockey Series.

REVIEW: HOT PUCK (ROUGH RIDERS HOCKEY) BY SKYE JORDAN
Hot Puck by Skye JordanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The bad boy and the wounded angel...
He prides himself on being in control on and off the ice. Beckett has a team to lead, an image to uphold and a contract to secure - but multiple surprises send his life in a direction he never thought he'd go. Father, daughter, injury and love were never part of the plan, but may end up being the best detour he ever made. Eden is well on her way to securing her future. Determination has helped her rise above abuse and insecurity and set her on the course of helping people. When Beckett is injured and Eden steps in to help is when the fireworks begin. Ms. Jordan proves that just because a story is sexy doesn't mean it can't have an impact. Hot Puck takes on child neglect and domestic abuse but also delivers a romance that is as hard hitting as the force of a hockey puck.

ARC Review: A Fool For You (Foolproof Love) by Katee Robert
No word could better describe the heroine in A Fool for You than her name, Hope. Her world was devastated in the blink of an eye. A heartbreaking loss that destroyed a family, a community and all of her dreams forced her in a new direction. But time could not erase her connection to Devil Falls and the man that broke her heart. Daniel has been fighting a losing battle with guilt and grief for thirteen years. Can he let go of his fears enough to take the second chance staring him in the face? Daniel and Hope had a long bridge to cross. Tragedy, anger, guilt, naysayers and memories that could make or break them. There were times I wanted to slap Daniel upside the head. Believing in the impossible and willing to take a risk, that's my definition of hope. Ms. Robert picked the perfect name for her strong heroine.

REVIEW: MAKE ME STAY (MEN OF GOLD MOUNTAIN) BY REBECCA BROOKS
Make Me Stay by Rebecca BrooksMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
To move forward, there has to be a point of letting go. Make Me Stay took that adage and ran with it. Sam and Austin were so focused on what could have been that they lost sight of what could possibly be. Seeking to complete her late father's dream, Sam sets out to convince Austin to help her to make the dream a reality. Half-truths and emotional attachment muddies the water making her clear cut plan into a heartbreaking choice. Make Me Stay was frustrating, irritating, exhilarating, heartbreaking and captivating. An expression of all the feelings of love.

REVIEW: HIS BEST MISTAKE (SHILLINGS AGENCY) BY DIANE ALBERTS
His Best Mistake by Diane AlbertsMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I'm in love with love and authors like Diane Alberts are the reason why. The romance genre gets a bad rep. Not believable or serious enough. Too much sex, not enough story. Totally untrue and explicitly unfair. Romance authors tackle serious issues like rape, kidnapping, emotional and physical abuse, depression and in the case of His Best Mistake, how to deal with grief and the fear of loss. Daisy has already turned one tragedy in her life into a positive. Losing her mother brutally and senselessly at a young age, put her on a path to protect innocents. As a police officer she sees herself making a difference. When she suffers yet another tragedy, she decides that her heart can't take the beating and closes herself off from love. A friend on a mission, a sexy, drunken night with a stranger and her heart just might be open for business. If she can let go of the past and he can get a handle on his fears, this may be a match made in heaven. The message: Life is too fragile to miss out on every precious moment.
