New Release & Review: Crave by Piper Lawson

Release Date: October 26

Turns out the beautiful man from the club is my new professor... But he wasn’t when he kissed me.

Olivia Barclay has never set foot in a strip club. She’s definitely not a girl who would seize the stage. But when she learns her ‘perfect’ boyfriend has been cheating, she lets loose for the first time.

From the moment Sawyer rescues her in the parking lot at Velvet’s, Olivia realizes he’s what she’s been missing. The way he touches her sets her on fire. But one mistake becomes two when she learns Sawyer isn’t only the passionate, mysterious man she stayed up all night with...

He’s her new professor.

Sawyer Redmond had it all, until it was stolen from him. For the next year, he has one job to do. Too bad Olivia calls to him like no woman has.

He wants to challenge her, break her, own her. But she’s a student, and completely off-limits. Breaking the rules to claim her could cost him everything.

But when has that ever stopped him?

CRAVE is an illicit, forbidden full-length novel and book 1 in the OFF-LIMITS trilogy. An addictive, enthralling romance from WSJ and USA Today bestselling author Piper Lawson.

My Review: 

Crave by Piper Lawson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow! What an incredible start to this series. Olivia and Sawyer can’t have a relationship, he is her professor but that first meeting at a strip club set a different course for them. When they find out that they are student-teacher, they know they need to resist each other but when you have chemistry with someone, sometimes you just need to embrace it. Whew, the sparks these two give off are intense and captivating. Olivia is struggling to find her path in life away from her parent’s expectations so she is pursuing an engineering degree. Having a sexy new professor wasn’t in her plan but winning a prestigious engineering competition is. Sawyer has his own secrets, like why is he suddenly teaching and no longer an owner of the company he founded? This first installment has left me hanging and wanting more. So excited to see where this journey takes us next. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review. I also bought a copy for my book shelf!

My hot professor’s past tore us apart. But he won’t give up on our future.

I thought I knew who Sawyer Redmond was. I was wrong.

But he’s fiercely determined to keep me, and I can’t avoid him. He’s everywhere—in class, at events, in my head.

He forces me to discover a side of myself I never knew. One that terrifies me almost as much as it excites me.

He says our secrets can bring us closer. But there’s no way I can love the man I’ve discovered…

Is there?

What’s a girl to do when her celebrity crush needs her to be his fake girlfriend?

Sealed With a Kiss, an all-new opposites attract romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Erin Nicholas is available now!

Keep her damned feelings to herself, of course.

Child TV star turned adult wallflower Naomi LeClaire has vowed never to return to the spotlight.

But when she’s stuck in a storm with Donovan Foster, the hot, charming, wild-life rescuing internet sensation, and she finally gives in and kisses him...and a few articles of clothing end up on the floor...suddenly her simple, quiet life is tossed upside down.

Especially after the paparazzi catches a heat-of-the-moment kiss. Now everyone assumes she's his girlfriend and, when she realizes that’s the best way to keep Donovan out of trouble, Naomi agrees to play along. Even though it puts her center stage with her private life in very public view. Again.

They’re a whirlwind of opposites-attract chemistry the fans love, but they'll surely blow over faster than a Gulf Coast hurricane. As long as they can keep straight what's real and what's just a once-in-a-lifetime fantasy.

My Review:

Sealed with a Kiss by Erin Nicholas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m still smiling after finishing this story. Life in Autre is never boring and when Donovan came to visit his brother Griffin, he suddenly found it hard to leave, something that’s never happened to him before. He’s been out following his passion for wild animal rescues as he tries to do great work to make his brother proud. When they lost their parents, they had no one but each other so having a large family support system is foreign to them. When the Landry’s embrace them as their own, Donovan isn’t sure what to feel or think. Naomi loves her hometown and has been living a life under the radar after years as a child TV star. She hasn’t let anyone in as she works to stay private but filming and following Donovan’s adventures as he helps rescue animals in the area captivates and worries her. These two have a beautiful attraction to each other but struggle to embrace their emotions. As they work together to rescue animals, they find a common ground and trust that allows them to open up. Naomi’s fear is that Donovan will get bored with small town life and need to leave again. What an amazing couple. I enjoyed all their adventures and the path they had to take to realize what would make them truly happy. Along the way, I got to spend time with this amazing family that the Boys of the Bayou has created. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

My Review:
Forcing You Away by Kennedy Fox
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

There is so much to enjoy and love about Archer and Everleigh. Everleigh is passionate about her clothing store and the holidays. She isn’t afraid to say what she is thinking which is eye-opening and refreshing. But love eludes her. It’s not that she doesn’t want it, I think she’s always been looking for the wrong man or in the wrong place. When her brother asks if Archer can be her roommate, she says yes without hesitation. She is always willing to help. What she doesn’t expect is for Archer to be completely charming and sexy without even trying. Archer made an incredible sacrifice for his sister and spent the last 5 years in prison. Needing a fresh start, he accepts Tyler’s offer of a job in a new town. Of course, before they get to Everleigh’s apartment, big brother Tyler is warning Archer not to fool around with his sister. But how will Archer resist when the sparks fly between them? The struggle for both Everleigh and Archer to not let Tyler down is real so will they allow their hearts to guide their heads? I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

1. Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No. Matter. What.
2. Keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum.
3. Turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life.

When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny.
But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

Promise Me Forever by Layla Hagen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fabulous beginning to the Maxwell brother’s series. Tate is a single dad who is determined to provide a wonderful life for his daughter. As driven as he is with his wine making business, he is home every evening to cook dinner for his daughter Paisley. The one challenge is that he keeps losing nannies to take care of her during the day. Lexi loves being an elementary school teacher and is looking for a summer job to help her parents with some unexpected bills. What a great opportunity when the placement service sends her on an interview for a nanny position. Tate has focused on Paisley since the divorce and hasn’t opened up his heart again and have it broken. He sees himself as a failure in the love department and doesn’t believe it can happen for him. Lexi is a ray of sunshine in his life with her optimistic attitude and passion for learning. Her connection to Paisley is joyful and the sparks she feels for Tate are electrifying. Now, will Tate be willing to take a risk on love with Lexi? Their journey wrapped me in a warm embrace as they navigated the challenges of trust and love along the way. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

New Release & Review: Just One Chance by Carly Phillips

Release Date: October 12

He thought she was the one . . . until she walked away.  Now she's back and he wants her more than ever.

As a former Marine, Xander Kingston’s writing keeps him sane.  Bonus? His thrillers made him one of Hollywood’s most desired screenwriters – and also introduced him to a fledgling starlet who broke his heart. With his close-knit family in New York, Xander returned home and found peace. Until Sasha Keaton shows up at his Hamptons retreat. Now an A-Lister, she’s as beautiful as he remembers. And just as dangerous to his heart.

Sasha learned from watching her mother to never sacrifice her dreams for anyone—only to discover how empty life could be without the man she loved. Now cast in Xander’s latest movie, she needs his insight to play the part, but secretly hopes for a second chance.

Xander has built emotional walls to keep Sasha at a distance, but their physical attraction can’t be denied. When a stalker’s threats intensify, Xander moves Sasha into his house to keep her safe. Before long she's back in his bed and making inroads in his life. 

But when the danger passes and the movie wraps, Sasha and Xander face a familiar choice—put career first or give love a fighting chance.

My Review:

Just One Chance by Carly Phillips
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Xander and Sasha met years ago and the chemistry was off-the-charts. The problem was Sasha was working to build a career in Hollywood and Xander was looking for quiet after returning from war. Several years later, Xander’s writing career has turned his books into movies and the latest project needs a new lead actress. Enter Sasha, whose career is on fire and is the perfect choice for the movie. This duo hasn’t talked to each other since their split but will need to work together. I love that Sasha took the initiative to clear the air and establish a working relationship with Xander. Of course, Xander can’t deny his attraction so he wants a ‘friends with benefits’ situation until the movie is done. When a fan’s obsession gets more aggressive, Xander’s protective nature kicks in and he insists that Sasha stay with him to make protecting her easier. With all this close proximity, can they really rekindle a sexual relationship without feelings entering the picture? I appreciated the growth for both of these characters from when they were first together to their second chance at love as they learned to communicate more and embrace their paths and how they could compromise to have a shot at love. I enjoyed this passionate second chance romance. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

New Release & Review: Fallen Royal by Rachel Van Dyken

Fallen Royal by Rachel Van Dyken is now live!

A mafia romance about betrayal and faith by Rachel Van Dyken, the number one New York Times bestselling author of the Eagle Elite series.

"The truth may hurt for a little while, but a lie hurts forever."—Ryan Bigge

I grew up knowing it would happen one day.

Believing that I would fall into my father's footsteps and become a monster of my own making.

So I fought it.

I lived.

I loved.

I teased.

And then one day… I destroyed.

And realized I loved the pain.

Obsessed over the feeling.

So I cut again and again and again.

She saw my rage, my madness, and tried to stop me from destroying myself, and I hated her for it, pushing her away past the point of no return.

Izzy Abandonato was supposed to be mine.

But there are some things people can never come back from. I hurt her, she hurt me, and now I'm living a lie. Telling the ones I love that I'm on one side when for years I've been forced to play both.

I'm no angel.

I've fallen.

And I may single-handedly bring down the Cosa Nostra—by default.

I, Maksim Sinacore, will have my vengeance.

I will win her back.

Even if it means I have to kill everyone in my path.

The pain masks the betrayal.

I never realized that one day—I'd be the very rat that I hated. That I was sent to kill. But once you're deep in a lie—you'll do anything to hide the truth.

She fell for the bad one.

She fell for the sinner.

So why does that make me smile?
