Ellie Shaw has a new job, a new home and a new lease on life – compliments of her cheating ex. Refusing to look back, she’s ready to put her time and focus on helping couples celebrate their happily ever after’s with a new position with Barefoot Brides. Just because she didn’t get her happy ending, doesn’t mean she’s given up on love. Unfortunately, one of the first couple’s she’s up to work with is her ex and the woman he cheated on her with!

Max Santos knows every inch of the Casa Blanca Resort & Spa property like the back of his hand – basically because he’s the one responsible for it all. He loves his job. Loves his life on Mimosa Key but…he’s in a rut. Work has become his life and he’s almost desperate for something to come along and shake up his world a little bit. And when Ellie shows up in one of his equipment sheds cursing like a sailor while she’s clearly hiding out, his curiosity is instantly piqued. Soon, he’s helping her in the craziest – and sexiest - game of hide and seek all over Casa Blanca!

Ellie knows she’ll never be able to truly move forward until she confronts her ex, but doing that means she won’t have any excuses to keep ‘running’ into Max. She thinks it’s too soon to start thinking about a future with him, but Max keeps proving time and time again that he’ll be there for her. And while Ellie’s been hiding from her past, Max has been anxiously seeking their future – their forever.

REVIEW:  SEEKING FOREVER (KINDLE WORLDS:  BAREFOOT BAY) BY SAMANTHA CHASE

 

 

 Seeking Forever by Samantha Chase

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Like a fairweather friend life can be fickle. The sour moments seem more constant than the sweet. But fear not, the not so happy situations are preparations for the most precious ones. With Seeking Forever, Ms. Chase takes a broken heart mixes in an uncomfortable situation and concocts an irresistible romance. With it's beautiful weather, picturesque surroundings and friendly locals Mimosa Key seems like a great place to start over for Ellie. When the job of her dreams leads her to the situation of her nightmares, she starts to rethink that choice. Crossing paths with an old acquaintance has her exploring new possibilities and may prove to be just the medicine to heal her wounded heart. Two of my favorite authors Roxanne St. Claire and Samantha Chase teamed up. Ms. St. Claire brought the exotic location and Ms. Chase delivered on the feel good motivation.

COME AND GET YOUR LOVE (KINDLE WORLDS:  BAREFOOT BAY) BY MARIA GERACI

 

 

Release Date:  October 11, 2016

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Baseball’s Sexy Bad Boy has come to Barefoot Bay, and he’s here to score...

Brian “Boom-Boom” Callahan might have a million dollar swing, but his bad boy rep has gotten him in trouble with his major league baseball team, so he’s been temporarily sent down to the minors to teach him a lesson.

Aubrey Adams’ fledgling PR firm has been hired to keep the Barefoot Bay Buck’s new hotshot hitter under the radar. All he has to do is play nice for the rest of the season and she’ll get a much needed bonus to keep her company afloat.

Being sent down to the minors is Brian’s worst nightmare, but one look at Aubrey and he decides that the next four weeks might not be so bad if he can get the cute brunette to warm his personal bench. Aubrey’s not about to be anyone’s groupie, especially not to a spoiled athlete whose batting record is only surpassed by the number of women he’s reported to have bedded.

But when Brian lays on the charm, Aubrey finds herself falling for the funny, kind, and intelligent man he hides from the press. When a well-intentioned gesture gets unexpected national publicity, Aubrey has to wonder if she’s up to playing in the big leagues, or if she’s just being played.

REVIEW:  COME AND GET YOUR LOVE (KINDLE WORLDS:  BAREFOOT BAY) BY MARIA GERACI

 

Barefoot Bay: Come And Get Your Love by Maria Geraci

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Ms. Geraci brings her A game with Come and Get Your Love. A heavy hitter in the big leagues is about to be brought back down to size. Brian has the skills to be a star athlete but his reputation makes him a liability, costing him dearly. Aubrey is just the girl to tone down the ego and polish up the shine. If she can keep her heart and his hormones out if the equation. Ms. Geraci scored a home run with Brian and Aubrey. I'm not into sports stories but she made me sit and take notice. That's a winner for me.

REVIEW:  OPERATION:  ROMEO  (KINDLE WORLDS:  BAREFOOT BAY:  SEALS ON VACATION) BY KATE CANTRELL

 

Operation: Romeo by Kat Cantrell

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Sassy, sexy and hilarious. Those Van Doran brothers know how to make an impression. Twin Navy Seals, Mimosa will never know what hit it. Operation: Romeo proves that love may be deaf, dumb and blind but always lands on it's feet. Garrett is adorably clueless when it comes to love. A whirlwind romance that culminated in a runaway bride is neon proof. There must be something in the water on that island that causes sain people to do stupid things. Callie makes that clear with her flair for landing in some crazy situations. In the end Operation: Romeo casts it's spell rather quickly.

SEDUCED BY THE BEST MAN  (KINDLE WORLDS:  BAREFOOT BAY:  SEALS ON VACATION) BY ZOE YORK

 

 

 

Release Date:  October 11, 2016

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Navy SEAL Dylan Van Doren knows a thing or two about keeping his enemies at bay. But even though Astrid Hughes is—was—the maid of honor in his brother's disaster of a non-wedding, she doesn't look like his enemy. She doesn't feel like one, either, when he pulls her into his arms and kisses her senseless.

Astrid values loyalty above everything else. So it's totally wrong to let herself fall into a vacation fling with her best friend's ex's brother, right? Maybe not if they keep it a secret. And if they promise each other they'll walk away at the end of the week, no matter what.

REVIEW:  SEDUCED BY THE BEST MAN  (KINDLE WORLDS:  BAREFOOT BAY: SEALS ON VACATION) BY ZOE YORK

 

Seduced by the Best Man by Zoe York

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


How can you not fall for the warrior with a fearless attitude but the soul of a romantic? Rough around the edges Dylan has a secret. He believes in the forever kind of love that true romantics fantasize about. Problem? He needs to find his other half. Astrid is a little bit quirky, naive, loyal and about to help break his brother's heart. A scrapped wedding and picturesque island could be just the setting for the love of a lifetime. Seduced by the Best Man was an easy read that flew by. My one critique would be because I loved these characters so much, I wish the story had been longer.

Going Down Fast by Carly Phillips

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


ARC Review: Going Down Fast (Billionaire Bad Boys) by Carly Phillips

Lucas may have been a shrewd businessman, but he was a little slow on the uptake when it came to his feelings. He lost his heart a long time ago and has suffered in silence ever since. When the woman of his dreams walks back into his life, he will move heaven and earth to make her his. Maxie is her own worse enemy. Her heart's desire is to find love and happiness. Not easy when choices keep making her life more of a mess. When danger and her past collide, will she face up to all the emotions she's tried to hide? Lucas is deeper than I realized. Who would have thought he battled insecurity and a broken heart behind that aloof exterior? He allowed his brain to out vote his heart. Going Down Fast is an emotional roller-coaster. Maxie and Lucas made me dizzy with the will they or won't they, but it was a ride I would gladly take again.

THE FIX UP BY KENDALL RYAN

 

 

Release Date:    October 11, 2016

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

From New York Times bestseller, Kendall Ryan, comes a sexy new standalone novel.

My tempting and very alpha friend Sterling Quinn is someone I consider off-limits.

It's not just that we're friends, he's also cocky, confident, and British, which means he's a walking aphrodisiac.

But lately he's been giving me the look. You know the one. When he thinks I'm not paying attention, and his gaze lingers for too long.

When we start working together, that's when the sexual tension between us gets so thick, I want to hack through it with a machete. I want to make all these deep feelings I've harbored for him disappear, because there's no way this can end well.

The lines between business and pleasure become irrevocably blurred, and I'm stuck between a rock, and Sterling's very, very hard place.

Rather than keep a level head about our growing attraction, Sterling wants to go all in, showing me just how explosive we can be together.

But I've been around long enough to know that this British bad boy is more than my heart can handle. I'm not about to be cast aside like yesterday's underwear when he's done having fun.

Sterling’s never been told no, and he's not about to put his ego aside and play by my rules. But I never thought he'd fight so dirty.

*This is a spin-off from the HITCHED series, but can be read as a standalone.

REVIEW:  THE FIX UP BY KENDALL RYAN

 

 

The Fix Up by Kendall Ryan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Quickly I have become a fan of Kendall Ryan. Her entertaining way of blending cynicism with smart repartee and profound emotion is a breath of fresh air. The Fix Up not only presents a glimpse into Hitched's Noah and Olivia's transition into happily marital bliss, it also presents the chance to see cocky, manwhore Sterling eat crow. Hotshot divorce lawyer Sterling has money, women and notoriety, but one thing he will never have, IS A WIFE. Or will he? Camryn, is about to bring this playboy to his knees, if she doesn't lose her heart along the way. It's easy to fall in love with Ms. Ryan's characters. A short but sweet, sexy treat.

REVIEW:  DOWN DEEP (GOING DEEP) BY VIRNA DEPAUL

 

Down Deep by Virna DePaul

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A do-over. We all want that chance to face down that moment in our lives when we're not at our best. The chance to interact with a dearly departed love one for some much needed advice. The opportunity to handle embarrassment with dignity or the moment when thoughtless actions and careless words break someone's heart. Down Deep taps into the awkwardness of youth. The guy who has the world at his feet because he can toss a ball and the starry eyed teenaged girl about to take a fall. A broken heart and being a devoted mother has taught Camille two things. Always look out for yourself and nothing is easy. Her dedication has help her land on her feet professionally but high and dry in the personal department. A surprising twists sets her back on the roller-coaster of first love when Heath comes back into her life. Maturity has taught him that no high can last forever and now the boy of her hidden fantasies may end up of becoming the man of her dreams. I am no sports enthusiasts but the Going Deep series is off to a great start. Down Deep is sensitive with a hint of sass.

REVIEW:  BOUND TO SUBMIT (BLASPHEMY) BY LAURA KAYE

 

Bound to Submit by Laura Kaye

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Laura Kaye is not afraid to delve inside the human psyche. Some of her best stories tackle tough and controversial subjects. Bound to Submit is her latest. Kenna is a complex character. Having endured the tragedies of war and a career ending injury, she shields her emotional pain. Her broken body and bruised spirit has lead her to seek out a dark avenue of expression. In order to feel alive, she thrives on the physical expression of pain. In that moment she can expose herself without the prying eyes and the heartbreaking looks. Griffin is no white knight. He has his own demons to contend with, but nothing hurts him more than the shell that Kenna has become. The distance between them is like a chasm. Heartache broke them apart, can tragedy heal the rift? There is no black and white with Bound to Submit. The story is designed on feelings and the power they have. Disturbing, sensual, tragic, inspiring -there is no halfway with Kenna and Griffin.

SYNOPSIS

 

They say that good girls like bad boys, and this was especially true for Pearl Stone. A child born of privilege to a drug baron and reputed killer known in the streets as Big Stone.

Raised in the wild and schooled on the mean streets of New Orleans, Diamonds is no stranger to hard times and is willing to do whatever it takes to stay above the poverty line, including kill. When a robbery turned mass murder goes wrong, Diamonds is forced to flee New Orleans and lands in New York where he meets Pearl, and for the first time finds something he craves more than wealth and power…love.

As the stakes get higher, Diamonds has to push away his past if he’s to grab hold of his future—but by doing so, will he show Pearl that all that glitters isn’t gold?

REVIEW:  DIAMONDS AND PEARL BY K'WAN

 

 Diamonds and Pearl by K'wan

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Diamonds and Pearl is real. The reality is that regardless of race or social class, circumstances like Diamonds are more prevalent than people choose to except. What's even more upsetting is that these issues are betrayed as black ones, but are statistically universal. Pearl has the life of a princess, but it's built on the backs of murder and tragedy. Diamonds is looking for a way to survive in a world that's closing in on him. What K'wan did was put a face and a voice to situations that are being ignored. How can you not respect that? In order to understand where we're going, we have to explore we've been.
