New Release: One Touch by Lena Hendrix

One Touch by Lena Hendrix is live!

Falling hard for my ex-boyfriend's rugged older brother was never in the plan.

Beckett Miller may be my brother's best friend, but he's also the last person on earth I want to ask for help. He's stubborn, demanding, and doesn't care at all what people think of him—everything his little brother wasn't, and definitely everything I should not want.

Thanks to my own stubbornness and my three infuriating siblings, he is the only one who can help me renovate my beloved aunt's farmhouse. Beckett thinks I'm a doormat, and I know he's an arrogant prick, but toss in one late-night game of tipsy strip poker, and before long, endless summer days turn into scorching nights.
Every stolen touch—every kiss—is wrong in the best ways.

I can fix everything around me: my friends' problems, my brothers' love lives, maybe even the decades-old rivalry that divides our cozy coastal town. So Beckett's snarl and heavy sighs are no match for me.

The only thing I can't seem to fix is the way my body reacts when he swings a hammer. I built walls to protect my heart after what his brother did to me, but I'm finding it could all come crumbling down with just one touch.

My Review

One Touch: An ex-boyfriend's brother, small town romance by Lena Hendrix
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a fabulous enemies to lovers romance. This couple surprised me as I got to know them and really understood the underlying struggles that each one was facing. For Katie, she has been pretending to be the perfect girlfriend for years but when Declan shatters that illusion, it is the wake up call she needs. Now she needs to figure out who Katie really is and what is her passion in life. Renovating her aunt’s home becomes the perfect project as she learns to navigate social media and share this journey. Beckett is the black sheep in his family since he pursued a career in construction and not the family business. Even though he is wealthy through his family, he loves creating things with his hands so when his best friend needs him to assist with the renovation, he gladly says yes. He never expects to end up with Katie as his partner. There are so many reasons that these two shouldn’t be together, Katie’s ex is Beckett’s brother, Beckett is best friends with Duke who is Katie’s brother. Oh the tangled webs. I had fun with their banter as they kept pushing each other’s buttons. They prove to be a strong team but each one carries scars from their past that they need to fix before they are truly open for love. I had fun taking this journey with them. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

New Release & Review: Shot Taker by Piper Lawson

He leads the league in scoring. My heart won't give him another shot.

Shot Taker by Piper Lawson is now live!

He leads the league in scoring. My heart won't give him another shot.
I swore I'd never come back to Denver.
I'd never trust the wrong man again.
But here I am, back in the same place as the bad boy athlete who broke my heart.
Clay rules the basketball court, and now he's gunning for redemption. But I'm not the same girl who fell for the man behind the all-star image and reputation.
He made me want him like I've never wanted anyone.
He made me feel like I was the only thing that mattered.
A single look can make me ache.
A whispered promise in his gruff voice makes my chest tight.
Clay'll do anything to prove we're worth another shot.

My Review

Shot Taker by Piper Lawson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

So much angst and drama. Clay thinks he’s in the clear now the Nova went back east but he gets a real surprise when he finds her painting a wall at the stadium. Nova is surprised that the team owner has asked her to create a mural for the team for the gala event. She is excited about the challenge but also nervous about staying away from Clay. He broke her heart when she thought they had found something spectacular. I love Nova’s conviction as she juggles her encounters with Clay. Clay is struggling since he can’t get Nova out of his head. At the same time, he needs to find a way to build up the team which he’s never done before. His focus has always been just on himself and his game. I am enjoying his journey as he opens up to love, it’s getting him to change other things in his life. Yet, he still has a deal with Harlan to get traded to LA. Or has his priorities changed? I’m loving this journey with all the ups and downs that many people face as they navigate careers and love. We end with another big decision that may ruin everything. Bring on part 3. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

About The Escort

Every journalist is looking for that big story.

Mine is Lix Daxon.

The Daxon Brothers all have day jobs.

At night, they're escorts.

But a different kind of escort.

They work with a local domestic abuse center.

Like a thief in the night.

They steal battered women from their abusers.

It's not an easy job.

And sometimes not legal.

Still, they made an oath.

Never leave a woman behind.

This is the Escort's Story

USA Today Bestselling Author Kelly Gendron brings you the final book in this series!

My Review

The Escort: A Different Kind of Escort Service by Kelly Gendron
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I love Lix’s story and how this concludes the Daxon brother’s journey. The Daxon brother’s banded together to work with a Domestic Abuse Center to help women that don’t know where to turn to get help to get out of a bad situation. They do this because of what they experienced in their own lives as children when they wished their mom had someone to reach out to. For Lix, a new woman shows up, Chosen, which they link is about the help they provide but she’s only interested in Lix. For Chosen, she is in search of answers relating to her uncle’s death which she believes Lix holds. As Lix and Chosen get to know each other, they find that fate has played a hand in bringing them together. But Lix doesn’t see himself as someone who can love or be loved so Chosen has a challenge on her hands to help him realize he is worthy of love. There are so many great twists to this story and I love the premise and mission that the Daxon brothers have taken on. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

Cover Re-Reveal: Dirty Talking Rival by Pippa Grant

Title: Dirty Talking Rival

Author: Pippa Grant

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Trope: Friends to Enemies to Lovers

Cover Design: Najla Qamber

Release Date: June 27, 2019

BLURB

Despite growing up in rival towns, Grady Rock and I were high school best friends.

But now?

Now, he’s my biggest enemy. My dirty-talking, master-baking, grudge-holding, hot-as-sin enemy.

All I wanted was to help my mom run her bakery after a family emergency left her unable to do it herself.

Never mind that I can’t bake. Or that I never wanted to move home again. Or that this is the hardest thing I’ve ever done and I could use a friend right now.

All Grady freaking Rock cares about now is that I’m his competition.

It’s town against town. Bakery against bakery. Old friend against old friend.

Until Grady finds out why I’m back home.

And suddenly, Mr. Get Out of My Way is more like the boy I knew in high school. But older. Wiser. And infinitely more irresistible.

I resisted his charm in high school for the sake of my future. But if I give in to it now, am I sleeping with the enemy?

Dirty Talking Rival is a deliciously fun friends-to-enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy featuring a smooth-talking baker, the one who got away, and a goat with more matchmaking tendencies than a nosy old grandpa. It stands alone with no cheating or cliffhangers.

My Review

Falling for the CEO by Layla Hagen

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Penny and Spencer aren’t looking for love when they end up as temporary neighbors. For Spencer, he is a single dad with a new infant trying to navigate being a parent while also running a company. Being the CEO does allow him to be flexible with his schedule as he works to focus as much time and attention on his son, Ben. Penny is recovering from a sad marriage now that her divorce is final. Her ex-husband definitely damaged her confidence and self-esteem which she is now working on rebuilding. Meeting her sexy neighbor comes at the detriment of an over excited dog and a fall on the sidewalk which provides a perfect opportunity for Miles to help her. Penny is impressed with Miles and his love and devotion for his son which makes it hard to resist him. Of course, for Miles, his grandmother gets involved and works to make sure these two end up on a few dates. Always a fun, sexy adventure with the Whitley family as another finds love. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
