REVIEWTHE LEGACY (RIVERS WILDE) BY DYLAN ALLEN

 

The Legacy (Rivers Wilde Book 1)The Legacy by Dylan Allen

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


They say opposites attract, but what happens when hearts get in the way? The Legacy was my introduction to the true meaning of fire. Dylan Allen emits mega volts of electricity with her brand of chemistry. Hayes knows how to be an alpha but it takes the love of a good woman to show him that he could be so much more. Confidence is the conscience he needs but is scared to acknowledge. Hayes is the passion she seeks but doesn't know how to accept. In a world of contradictions this odd pairing makes sense. Fire and Ice has nothing on a King determined to claim his queen.

REVIEWSTRIPPED DOWN (TAP THAT) BY ERIN MCCARTHY

 

Stripped DownStripped Down by Erin McCarthy

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


It happens to the best of us. No more hiding behind snarky comments, over-inflated egos and childhood fantasy. Eventually we have to grow up. McCarthy reminds us that life has a tendency to get in the way, but it also pushes us through the heartache. Stripped Down is brash humor with a ton of heart and a dash of wisdom. The mean girl finally gets a long overdue reality check. Sloane is used to putting her best foot forward, but this time she has to do the work. It takes a less than stellar homecoming and a blast from her not so distant past to show her the error of her ways. Sloane, Rick and their slew of busybody friends are an irresistible bundle of heartwarming fun.

Princess Lenora Celeste Beatrice Arabella Pembrook had an unusual childhood. She was raised to be a Queen—the first Queen of Wessco.

 

It’s a big deal.

 

When she’s crowned at just nineteen, the beautiful young monarch is prepared to rule. She’s charming, clever, confident and cunning.

What she isn’t…is married.

 

It’s her advising council’s first priority. It’s what Parliament is demanding, and what her people want.

 

Lenora has no desire to tie herself to a man—particularly one who only wants her for her crown. But compromises must be made and royals must do their duty.

Even Queens. Especially them.

 

**

Years ago, Edward Langdon Richard Dorian Rourke, walked away from his title and country. Now he’s an adventurer—climbing mountains, exploring jungles, going wherever he wants, when he wants—until family devotion brings him home.

 

And a sacred promise keeps him there.

 

To Edward, the haughty, guarded little Queen is intriguing, infuriating…and utterly captivating. Wanting her just might drive him mad—or become his greatest adventure.

 

**

Within the cold, stone walls of the royal palace—mistrust threatens, wills clash, and an undeniable, passionate love will change the future of the monarchy forever.

Every dynasty has a beginning. Every legend starts with a story.

This is theirs.

The wrong brother…

Ireland needs a fresh start, and her cousin convinces her to take a chance on a charismatic bad-boy with a wicked boat and a killer body. But when Ireland shows up for the popular Lake Tahoe booze cruise he runs, she finds his handsome older brother at the helm instead.

Bran likes things structured and predictable. Especially after the mistakes he made ten years ago. But his father’s recent passing threw his calm life into chaos, and now Bran is in charge of the family’s five-star restaurants. He’s been grasping to get things back to status-quo ever since.

He has no idea how much more complicated life will get.

Flame-haired Ireland is exactly the type of beautiful woman Bran has programed himself to avoid. But when she falls into his lap on a booze cruise his brother asked him to cover, the boat isn’t the only thing tossed by the water. Bran’s heart goes overboard as well.

Headstrong Ireland is nothing Bran wants, and everything he needs.

Release DateOctober 22, 2018

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Kostya “Mad Dog” Sokolov has earned his reputation as a ruthless enforcer for the Russian mob. Cold, menacing, and driven, he has long ago dismissed any softness that might have been inside of him. And since his father was murdered, he’s wanted only one thing: revenge on the man who did it. The best way for Kostya to flush out his prey—Anatoly Popov—is to follow Popov’s daughter, Maya. What Kostya doesn’t count on is getting knocked out and forgetting why he’s in London or how he ended up in the flat of a beautiful woman. But once he remembers his mission, he realizes the only thing standing in his way is a pretty girl with a too-big heart. A pretty girl who’s the daughter of the man he’s vowed to kill. 

Maya has rejected everything about her father since learning at a young age that he’s a brutal mob boss. She’s changed her last name to Orlov and set about creating as much distance between her and the Russian mob as she possibly can. So, when she discovers that the man she’s rescued outside her London flat—the man she’s falling for—is her father’s greatest enemy, she’s torn. She hates her father, but she hates the violence surrounding her family even more. How can she allow Kostya to carry out his plan? And, at the same time, how can she resist Kostya when his kisses make her weak-kneed and his touch makes her wish for a life that she can never have?

ALL SHOOK UP (IRRESISTIBLE BILLIONAIRES) BY ASHLEY BOSTOCK

 

 

 

Release DateOctober 23, 2018

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Billionaire CEO Cole Carrington knew the only way to check the seemingly downward spiral of his lingerie store was to go undercover. If it was being mismanaged he’d be able to get to the bottom of it. What he wasn’t expecting was to run into Jillian Winters, the gorgeous woman he’d evicted months ago from the same location.

 

When Jillian Winters gets evicted from the building she rented, she’s forced to shut down her five-star lingerie store. Unable to have the proper funds to relocate into an equally swank location in Downtown Denver, Jillian is certain her managing skills aren’t what she believed them to be. Still sulking weeks later, Jillian’s pesky sister helps her get a new job—same location,new lingerie store—owned by the handsome stranger who evicted her.

 

Unforeseen circumstances force Jillian into the management position where she realizes she’ll have the chance to learn from her previous mistakes. But she’s taken aback when a competitor offers Jillian part of her dream again—half owner of a lingerie store. Jillian must decide where she wants to be: working at her hot boss’s upscale lingerie store and helping him succeed. Or working toward her ultimate goal of being an owner again—even if that means taking a step down from the five-star norm she’s used to.

 

Especially when she realizes that dealing with Cole Carrington on a day to day basis isn’t as difficult as she first thought it might be.

HOT SEAL, BLACK COFFEE (SEALS IN PARADISE) BY CYNTHIA D'ALBA

 

 

 

Release DateOctober 23, 2018

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Dealing with a sexy ex-girlfriend, a jewel heist, and a murder-for-hire can make an ex-SEAL bodyguard a tad cranky. 

Trevor Mason accepts what should be a simple job…protect the jewels his ex-girlfriend will wear to a breast cancer fundraiser. As founder and owner of Eye Spy International, he should send one of his guys, but he needs to get his ex out of his system and this is the perfect opportunity to remind himself that she is a spoiled, rich debutante who dumped him with a Dear John letter during his SEAL training.

Respected breast cancer doctor Dr. Risa McCool hates being in the limelight for her personal life. Her life’s work is breast cancer treatment and research, which she’d rather be known for than for her carefree, partying debutante years. She agrees to be the chairperson for the annual breast cancer fundraiser even though it means doing publicity appearances and interviews, all while wearing the famous pink Breast Cancer Diamond for each public event. The multi-million dollar value of the pink stone requires an armed bodyguard at all times. 

Past attractions flame, proving to be a distraction to the serious reality of the situation. When Risa and the millions in diamonds go missing, nothing will stop Trevor from bringing her home, with or without the jewels.

Kansas Kissed (Romance Across State Lines Book 2) by Debbie White  
 
Happenstance makes for a fun romance when two strangers meet. Debbie White is an ace when it comes to written witty stories with heartwarming characters. Kansas Kissed is not all sunshine and rainbows but packs just enough to chase away those winter blues. Add in a bit of cliche and some sage advice and you've hit comedy gold. If home is where the heart is then Sam and Lucy felt like coming home.

Just when they decide to be honest with each other, Sophia's father shows up and informs them, they've been compromised. Now both must decide if loving each other is worth the risks.

ALL I NEED BY JENNIFER VAN WYK

 

 

Release DateOctober 25, 2018

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

It took me years to get over my fiancé sleeping with another woman. I thought my luck with men had finally turned around until I walked in on my new fiancé with my maid-of-honor.

 

I’m done with men entirely. I’m definitely old enough to know better than to let that happen to me again. Trust isn’t something I have in me to give… to anyone. At least, Not anymore.

 

Besides, even if I wanted to give someone my everything, I have nothing left to give. Now, if Walker could be just a tad less handsome, his relationship with his nephew not quite as sexy and his body… well, let’s not get crazy. His body is just a gift to womankind.

 

The moment I laid eyes on Ellie, I knew she’d be full of spit and vinegar. And why wouldn’t she be? She’d just caught her fiancé with her maid of honor – and they weren’t chatting about the upcoming nuptials.

 

I can’t help but push her buttons, she’s sexy as hell when she’s fired up. Or cooking dinner with Miss Polly, or… well, any time, really. Maybe having her work for me in my vet clinic wasn’t the smartest move I’ve ever made considering I can’t stop my body from aching for her.

 

She said she was done with men entirely, that she’s broken but I can’t help but hope that she realizes she’s All I Need.

CRUSHING ON THE COP (BLUE COLLAR BROTHERS) BY PIPER RAYNE

 

 

 

Release DateOctober 25, 2018 

 

 

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Cristian Bianco has two things against him—he’s a police officer and he’s a police officer in the 18th District…meaning my dad is his boss.

 

Growing up as the Commander’s daughter and having his magnifying glass focused on everything I did was more than I could handle.

 

Now, I’m out on my own, living by my own rules. Well, mostly. The ‘job’ I created for myself has me in some hot water and my exit strategy isn’t exactly working out how I’d hoped.

 

Which is why when my best friend bids on Cristian for me at a charity bachelor auction, I’m not having it. A man in blue is only going to be one thing for me—a problem.

Except after his brother starts dating my best friend he becomes harder to ignore. The eight-pack abs. The sense of style only a girl like me can appreciate. The way he puts his family first. It all adds up to make him one irresistible prospect and has me wondering if he knows how to use those handcuffs the right way—by locking my wrists to his headboard.

REVIEWHEART STEALER (HEARTTHROB SERIES) BY SOPHIA KNIGHTLY

 

Heart Stealer: Alpha Romance | Heartthrob Series Book 6Heart Stealer: Alpha Romance | Heartthrob Series Book 6 by Sophia Knightly

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Ivy and Stone prove that first impressions can be deceiving. Knightly still has a few tricks up her sleeve. Heart Stealer takes an ironic look at the childhood fantasy of love and turns into a modern day realistic one. Forget the white knight and the charming prince and take a look at the brooding hero and his pessimistic heroine. Ivy sells the dream, yet has lost the power to believe in her's ever coming true. Stone wants acceptance, but is afraid to risk open himself up to a world of heart. An almost tragedy brings the bridal shop owner and the reclusive inventor out of their self imposed shells and forces them to face what's in their hearts. This may sound a tad cliche but Heart Stealer is a reminder that a fairytale doesn't have to be something we read in a book, but the emotion we feel within our hearts.
