The Scandals of Life
(The Working Girls #2)
by K.L. Humphreys
Release Date: 14th November 2018

Rule number one: don’t sleep with the clients...

Escorting was supposed to be a short-term job to pay the bills. It wasn’t meant to lead to heartache. For Stefanie Wiley, love was never in the cards—until she met James Moore.

Being an escort was taboo but falling for James was downright scandalous.

He blew through her life like a tornado, leaving a path of destruction in his wake—a path she isn’t sure she can recover from.

Second chances aren’t something Stefanie believes in, but when truths are unveiled and lies are exposed, she has to decide whether to guard her heart or take a leap of faith.

Available for Pre-order!!
***AVAILABLE ON KINDLE UNLIMITED***

Book Review: Zohar by A.K. Michaels

My Review:

Zohar is THE Enforcer for the Wolf Council. He's ruthlessly doled out some of the worst punishment and dealt with some of the worst Alpha's. His job is taking a toll on him mentally. When he gets sent to save a wolf pack from the evil Alpha and his team, he doesn't expect for his life to change so much.

When his best friend Danko suggests Zohar could be experiencing the Hunger, he brushed off as being ridiculous. But could it be?

Maisy refuses to be her Alpha's new plaything. He has committed so many atrocities against the pack, especially the females, that she will fight him to the last breath. But when he makes an example of her friend, Maisy's usually meek and mild personality gets an infusion of pure anger and hatred and she sees red. When Zohar and the other enforcers arrive and deal with her Alpha she finds herself drawn to the large, looming Enforcer. She should be terrified of him...so why isn't she???

Another fantastic book in the Wolf's Hunger world!

Book Review: The Healer by Kiersten Modglin

My Review:

This is book two in "The Messes" series. Although this can be read as a standalone I highly recommend you read book one "The Cleaner" as it’s just so good. This is Quinn and Jesse story.

We saw a glimpse of Jesse in "The Cleaner". He was an obvious good guy, but that's all we knew.

Jesse and Quinn are those friends that you just fall in love with and then yell at them for not being together because they're so damn perfect together!

I was gripped from start to finish with this story. The twists and turns kept on coming. I was so glad Jesse got his happy ending. 

I can't wait for the rest of this series to see all of the twists and turns she gives us.

**I received this book as an ARC and in return gave my honest review**

NIGHT AND DAY

One Night in South Beach #5
by Andie J. Christopher

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Pub Date: 9/18/2018


Letty Gonzalez is a true romantic. She’s spent her life waiting for flowers, poetry, the grand gesture that will finally sweep her off her feet—without any luck. After her latest dating fiasco, she’s ready to give up on the idea of Prince Charming—but not on down and dirty fantasies about her new boss—gorgeous, out-of-her-league Max Delgado.
Maxis more pragmatic than romantic—and with his looks and charisma, beautiful women usually fall at his feet. Bubbly, generously curvy Letty just isn’t for him, and maybe if he finally lets his grandmother set him up with someone new, Letty will finally believe it.
But the senior citizen’s matchmaking is trickier than anyone anticipated. And when Letty and Max find themselves stuck in Key West together for a seductively sexy weekend, one kiss is enough to light a fire neither of them wants to put out . . .
**easily read as a standalone!**

BLURB

When Danny Marshall decided to up and leave everything behind to move to Georgia with her best friend, Reanna, it wasn’t because she wanted to attend college, but that was exactly what she found herself doing. But doing anything was better than going back to her hometown of Palm Bay, Florida. Back to the place where everything changed. Where she changed. A broken heart could do a lot of damage. One night stand after one night stand. It was the only way she could keep her already broken heart safe. But when she walked into a bar called Twisted and met Jaxson Steele, with his no bullsh*t attitude and outspoken personality, she was instantly drawn to him. Not to mention he was drop-your-panties gorgeous. Like every man before him, though, she only expected one thing to come out of their quick connection. Sex. That was until she got to know him and realized that maybe…she wasn't the only one with a broken heart. Can Danny and Jaxson heal each other or will their pasts rip them apart before they get the chance?

EXCERPT

My eyes collided with Jaxson’s. He still wore the grin on his face, and just the sight of it made me crack one myself. His grin widened, and he winked. I laughed under my breath, but Kevin still caught us. “What the fuck is so funny?” he asked, frustration clearly evident in his rough voice. “Inside joke,” I responded before Jaxson could. He smirked, which caused Kevin to sigh heavily in defeat. At that moment, Reanna came strolling out of the hallway looking like a model. No wonder it took her this long. She wore a pair of jean shorts and a light pink tank top. Her make-up was done to perfection and she had thrown her hair into a messy bun at the top of her head. “Damn girl….” I said and slid off the barstool. She laughed. “You like it?” “I love it. You are going to help me get ready now, right?” She wrapped her arm around my shoulders. “Yes!” Kevin wasted no time in listening to our conversation and raced down the hall to get whatever Rachel needed . I met Jaxson’s smoldering gaze once more. “Well, guess I’ll see you later…” I said. He nodded, turning his body and placing his back to the door to let us through. “Yup.” I smiled and then let Reanna lead me back out to my car. I saw the look she was giving me when we left, and I prepared myself for whatever she was about to ask. Almost as soon as we got into my car, she turned to me. “Ok, what the heck was that?” I turned the engine over. “What was what?” She rolled her eyes. “Oh, don’t play stupid with me. That!” she pointed up the stairs to Miles’s apartment. “Whatever that was! Don’t think I didn’t miss that smile you threw in Jaxson’s direction.” I laughed before rolling my eyes. “Ok, so I smiled. Who cares?” I was going for nonchalant here and failed miserably if the look on Ray’s face was any indication. We were on the road now, heading back across town to my apartment. “That was not a normal smile. That was Danny’s famous, I secretly want to climb you like a tree smile!” she said. I snorted. “That was not that smile! I do not want Jaxson!” But as soon as the words left my mouth, my mind went straight to him…me…in bed. A shiver ran down my spine at the thought and I did my best to hide it. “Whatever. You totally want him,” Reanna said. I didn’t respond.

Book Review: Blackwing Defender by T.S. Joyce

My Review:

This is my first book by this author and wont be my last.

Logan Furrow had a grizzly bear inside of him that was broken because of the choices the human side made. He was looking for someone to put him down when his previous Alpha couldn't go through with keeping his promise. Logan went to apply to be a part of the Blackwing Crew where he met the beautiful, curvy and sassy panther shifter, Winter. There was this deep pull between Logan and Winter that the former found very intriguing and terrifying at the same time.

Winter Donovan, a Panther shifter who was a city shifter, but things went wrong then she found herself in a dark place until she went to the Red Havoc Crew. Technically she wasn't a member, just stayed there because she didn't know where else to go. She was in love with Brody but the man betrayed her when he strayed leaving her heartbroken and feeling like she didn't belong. Even the Alpha of the Havoc Crew, Benson Saber knew that she stayed out of loyalty. He gave her an opportunity to find a place where she could find what she seeked and/or needed. 

Winter made her way to Smoky Mountains where Dark Kane and his mate, Rowan Barnett were looking for new members to be a part of their Blackwing Crew. On her arrival, she met some very interesting shifters especially a bear shifter by the name of Logan.

Can't wait to read Dustin's story next!

Book Review: Taking Chances by Tara Lee

My Review:

Taking Chances is a great start to this series and for her debut novel. I can not wait to read more from this new author.

Eli and Charli was completely consumed with each other. After a rocky start with many hurdles and years lost. This couple was determined to make up for lost time. 

I like how the author introduced many characters but still kept it focused on Eli and Charli. Jensen, Charlotte’s brother, and some of the other secondary characters are definitely intriguing and I look forward to reading more about them. I believe we can also expect some of them to get their own books.

Anyone looking to discover a new author- you won't regret taking a chance on this read!

Book Review: Poppy Bloom by Rebekah Dodson

My Review:

This was my first book by this author and it wont be my last. I loved this story.

This immediately grabbed me from the start and I never wanted to put it down. It is very cleverly written and I adored the characters.

Vicki Morel has her dream life. A great new job, and she's engaged to the man of her dreams, Will Barton. Everything is perfect, except the world is in chaos.

Ambrose Palamo just wants out of the country. A few more months and he's outta here. But, his plans are blown to smithereens along with the airport terminal. He should just run. Save himself. But he can't turn his back on the survivor he found.

I can't wait to read Lavender Dreams, the next book in the series. I need to find out what happens to these amazing characters.

Cover and Blurb Reveal: Beautiful Allure by Cathy Johns

Beautiful Allure
(A Beautiful Kind of Hope Book #1)
By Cathy Johns
Release Date: October 26th, 2018
Cover Designer: Veronique Poirier of V Designs


I have lived my life without distraction, building a name and an empire in this competitive world. Becoming who I am, I had to stay true to my late mother’s wishes.
But all that changed the moment I laid my eyes on her…
Butterfly; that’s what they call her. The woman I couldn’t tear my eyes from as she captivated the crowd, swaying her curvy hips, her nude lingerie leaving nothing to the imagination.
I didn’t know her, and all it took was one taste of her intoxicating scent and I knew I’d never get enough of her.
I needed her in my life to be that ray of sunshine no matter the cost.




I'm a Kenyan based Author who grew up in a small village in Africa, one of the most beautiful places in the world. My family means the world to me, my greatest role in life is that of Daughter, Sister, and Aunt and I wouldn't be who I am today without their continued support and love. I had a remarkable childhood not completely without struggle but I consider myself lucky enough to still have really good people around me who are still by my side.
My writing started as a healing process, reading and getting lost in the world of words and people's stories have always been my greatest form of escape. I believe in happily ever after's and expect to read about intense connections and stories that will leave you hopeful and longing for true love.

Release Blitz: MANIK by Amo Jones

 

‘Manik, an all-new standalone Dark Romance from Amo Jones is Available Now!

   
I’m Beatrice Kennedy, but everyone calls me Beat. I live a low-key life, fresh out of college and drifting from town to town until I find my home.
I love music, and how it stirs even the deepest and untouched parts of your soul. Depending on what you choose to listen to, would depend on what it touches. It’s the drug we all damper in, only different strains. My strain is Jazz. The smooth instrumental strums that take over me. The sound of cigar smoke, bourbon and an old dusty fedora hat. My strain wasn’t rap, and it sure wasn’t laced with some A-class shit like murky blue eyes casted down from the Lord and the Devil’s handcrafted smile. I knew who he was—the whole world did. One fateful night set off a chain of events, events that no one was coming back from. You can’t save people who don’t want to be saved. You can’t pull them up from the ocean when they’ve latched themselves to an anchor. Love was my anchor, destruction was the water that was drowning me, and the rope that was so tightly clamped around my ankles, was woven with the lyrics of Aeron Romanov-Reed, also known as, 'Manik. He steals hearts from all around the world, but one night, he stole something that wasn’t his to steal.
Me.
