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 (The Whitley Brothers)
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.

New Release & Review: Protected Love by Vikki Jay


 Protected Love by Vikki Jay is now live!


Stranded in the most beautiful cabin in the middle of nowhere with my bodyguard shouldn't be so hard. Except Gavin King is no longer looking at me like a client and his touches are far from professional.


Gavin is not a typical bodyguard. The owner of Kings Security is the complete opposite of me.

While, I'm the country's most renowned angsty voice, who hides behind a stage name, he has a presence which can't be confined. 

His broad shoulders, curly tresses reaching his shoulders, and colorful tattoos, send my hormones into overdrive. 

His plan against my stalker is simple. Fake dating. Those words are far more complicated in reality.

In between the kisses and touches, staged for the camera, there are moments just for us. 

I sing for him at night, as my voice turns out to be the only cure for his insomnia.

He takes me on bike rides, because I'm scared of cars.

But, with each intimate moment, the line between pretense and truth becomes increasingly blurred. I see a side of my bodyguard which he hides behind thick walls. 

Although his assignment with me is meant to be temporary, my heart can't stop wanting it to be forever. 

Protected Love is a captivating billionaire bodyguard romance, set against the backdrop of forced proximity and starring a talented songstress.

My Review
Protected Love (The Kings World, #3)Protected Love by Vikki Jay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a fun couple. Gavin is the growly protector while Minnie is the beautiful songbird who feels unworthy. From their first meeting they have a natural spark and Minnie doesn’t hesitate to push Gavin’s buttons. When a fan of Minnie’s continues to taunt her, Gavin becomes her full-time security which has them spending several weeks alone at a safe house. As they get to know each other, Minnie opens up to Gavin about her fears which he works to help her conquer. But as Gavin falls for Minnie, he is carrying some baggage that makes him feel unworthy of her love. As they work to unravel the mystery of Minnie’s stalker fan, will they allow themselves to embrace love? I also enjoyed that we get to interact with Minnie and Gavin’s families along the way which shows the true community that they have supporting them. This let’s me revisit past characters and learn more about their lives and how they interconnect with everyone else. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

Meet Vikki Jay



In those early morning hours when I'm alone, my imaginations run wild and I pen down the life of people living in my head. All my life, I have lived in small towns in different parts of the world. The friendships, the camaraderie that people share around me inspired me to create Cherrywood and St. Peppers, the two towns where all my stories take place.


I write about beautiful coincidences, finding love in unexpected places and times, and fighting hard to get that happily ever after.

I reject to read, see, write anything that does not promise a HEA. My characters are sexy yet shy, strong yet reserved...

I am married to a man whom I fell in love at an age of 15, proposed him at an age of 23 and married at an age of 30. He has no clue what I write or do when he is snoring quietly in the next room.

My Review
Fateful Hearts (Revel Rose Billionaires, #3)Fateful Hearts by K.E. Osborn
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I enjoyed Blake and Zoey’s story. Blake was a tough character to like from the other books in the series so I was excited to get to know him and find out that deep down he is a teddy bear. The thing that truly melts his heart is Zoey’s daughter, Hailee. He is a natural as he connects with her and makes her feel important, something Hailee is missing from her own father. The other secret we learn is that Blake has always been attracted to Zoey. When Zoey needs a ‘date’ for Hailee’s father’s wedding, well Blake steps in to be her fake boyfriend. Of course, they have to make sure everyone believes this is real at the wedding which requires them to spend more time together. As these two really get to know each other, will they be able to keep their feelings out of it? Or can they convince Nash that an office romance is ok? I loved how this couple connected and found a natural rhythm that included Hailee. I didn’t love some of their behaviors at the wedding, it seemed out of character for them but I know that it was needed to drive the drama in the story. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
