Weston Conrad is the best headhunter in the business. That handsome smile goes a long way towards convincing most people to trust him with their future.

EXCERPT

Weston takes off his tie and begins unbuttoning his shirt. My eyes open a little wider. I watch every move. The way his fingers flip each button loose. The way his tanned and muscular chest flashes me as the shirt comes apart. That stupid Corporate grin on his face.

I sigh with frustration just as he takes the whole thing off and starts going for his belt.

Will Weston Conrad strip naked to swim?

Oh, yeah. You bet your ass he will. I called him Naked Man back when we were together. He has a thing for it.

“Come on, Tori. Let’s swim. You don’t need a suit. I’ve seen your goods.”

“First of all,” I say, crossing my arms and maintaining eye contact as the pants come down, “I’m not ‘goods.’ Second of all, I’m not giving you the pleasure of seeing me naked after you’ve been such an asshole.”

“When was I an asshole?”

He’s kidding, right? “All the time.”

“I’m just truthful, Victoria. You just can’t handle the truth.”

“I’m tired of fighting—” But I stop talking. Because yeah, he still looks amazing in those black boxer briefs he’s partial to.

“Did you miss him?” West asks.

“Who?” I say, forcing myself to look up at his face.

“Naked Man?”

I almost laugh, but catch myself just in time. “Weston—” But before I can get anything else out, he’s crossing the floor, I’m backing up, my hands are up, warning him to stay away, and I bump into the couch and fall back.

He stops in front of me, his goddamned bulge staring me in the face.

At least he’s not hard.

Ooops. Spoke too soon.

“Weston, stop it.”

“Come on,” he says, extending his hand. “We’re going to the beach.”

“I’m not getting naked with you.”

“I don’t need you naked. Your fucking skirt is so short you could wade in up to your thighs.” He shakes his hand at me, urging. “Come on.”

I close my eyes so I can stop staring at the bulge, stop imagining his hard cock and all the ways I’ve been intimate with it in the past, and take his hand, letting him pull me to my feet. His arm slips around my back and he pulls me into his chest. God, I can feel his fucking dick against my hips.

“Victoria,” he says in my ear. “You’ve missed me,” he says, switching to the other one.

I wait for what comes next. It’s a thing he always did with me when I was on the verge of something. Panic, or sadness, or whatever comes with all the things we went through.

He would stand behind me, both hands squeezing my shoulders. His mouth would go to work on my earlobe, and my neck, and my mouth. Then his fingers would dip down into my bra to squeeze my breasts and pinch my nipples.

We’d always have sex after that. Always. It drove me crazy.

But before I can say anything—No, we’re not doing that, or, Back off, mister, I’m not yours—he backs away and he’s heading for the door, tugging me along.

I sigh, missing his attention so much in that unused moment.

Michel’s Review

Mr. Corporate is the latest Mister on the chopping block.  Someone is trying to bring the Misters down once and for all.  Their lives have been anything but normal since the incident in college.  The incident that almost got them prosecuted for rape.  Each Mister has felt they were somewhat responsible for what happened many years ago.  They are unaware of how the other Misters are involved.  They were ordered not to talk about it with anyone, including with each other. Over ten years later they are being forced to confront the past to save their futures.

Each Mister holds an intricate piece to the puzzle.  Someone is trying to destroy their lives. This time the Misters have much more to lose.

Weston Conrad’s life didn’t change much after the incident.  He had an airtight alibi. His girlfriend was with him that night. He was able to move forward in life  and pursue his career as a head hunter.  He wasn’t able to hang onto his girlfriend.  Their on again off again relationship finally reached it’s expiration date.

Weston was recruited to hire a high profile executive.  The finder fee is over seven million dollars.  He thought he had the client in the bag.  He didn’t count on his ruthless ex girlfriend vying for the same finder fee. Victoria will do anything to get this money, including lie, cheat, and steal.  What she didn’t consider is that her feelings for Weston would change the way she does business.

As the two compete and end up stranded on a remote island during a hurricane, their priorities change.  They are in survival mode.  It is also quite clear that someone has set them up.  Their lives are in even more danger than from the elements.  Someone wants them dead.

This is when Mr. Corporate’s past comes into play.

There are two Misters to go before the truth becomes unraveled. It will be interesting to see who’s controlling the strings and why.

J. A. Huss is weaving a brilliant tale with five books building the plot in the story.  I love it.

Release Blitz + Excerpt + 5 Star Review: King Of Wall Street by Louise Bay

KOW-Banner.jpg

Social Butterfly PR is proud to present the release of King of Wall Street by Louise Bay

KingofWallStreet.v15.Ebook.jpg

Synopsis:

AN AMBITIOUS BOMBSHELL IS ABOUT TO BRING THE KING OF WALL STREET TO HIS KNEES.

I keep my two worlds separate.

At work, I’m King of Wall Street. The heaviest hitters in Manhattan come to me to make money. They do whatever I say because I’m always right. I’m shrewd. Exacting. Some say ruthless.

At home, I’m a single dad trying to keep his fourteen year old daughter a kid for as long as possible. If my daughter does what I say, somewhere there’s a snowball surviving in hell. And nothing I say is ever right.

When Harper Jayne starts as a junior researcher at my firm, the barriers between my worlds begin to dissolve. She’s the most infuriating woman I’ve ever worked with.

I don’t like the way she bends over the photocopier—it makes my mouth water.

I hate the way she’s so eager to do a good job—it makes my dick twitch.

And I can’t stand the way she wears her hair up exposing her long neck. It makes me want to strip her naked, bend her over my desk and trail my tongue all over her body.

If my two worlds are going to collide, Harper Jayne will have to learn that I don’t just rule the boardroom. I’m in charge of the bedroom, too.

LBKingofWallStreetTEASER5

Excerpt

I’d been desperate to work for Max King since before I enrolled at business school. He was the power behind the throne of many of the Wall Street success stories in the last few years. King & Associates provided investment banks with critical research that helped their investment decisions. I liked the idea that there were a ton of flashy suits from investment banks shouting about how rich they were and the man who had made it happen was happy to go quietly about his business, just being amazing at what he did. Understated, determined, supremely successful—he was everything I wanted to be. When I got the offer during my final semester to be a junior researcher at King & Associates, I was thrilled, but I also felt an odd sense that the universe was simply unravelling how it should, as though it was simply the next step in my destiny.

Destiny could kiss my ass. My first six weeks in my new position had been nothing I’d expected. I’d assumed I’d be surrounded by ambitious, intelligent, well-dressed twenty and thirty somethings and I’d been right about that. And the clients we worked for—almost every investment bank in Manhattan—were phenomenal and lived up to every expectation I’d had. Max King, however, had turned out to be a huge letdown. The fact was, despite being crazy smart, respected by everyone on Wall Street, and looking as if he should have been on a poster on teenage me’s bedroom wall, he was . . .

Cold.

Blunt.

Uncompromising.

A total asshole.

He was as handsome in real life as he was in his picture on the cover of Forbes or any of the other publicity shots I’d clicked through as I stalked him during my MBA at Berkeley. One morning, I’d arrived super early, seen him in his running gear—sweaty, panting, Lycra clad. Thighs so strong they looked as if they might be made of marble. Broad shoulders; a strong Roman nose; dark-brown, glossy hair—the kind wasted on a man—and a year-round tan that screamed, I vacation four times a year. In the office he wore custom suits. Handmade suits fell a particular way on the shoulders that I recognized from the few meetings I’d had with my father. His face and body lived up to every expectation I’d had. Working with him, not so much.

Tracey’s Review

Working for the Max King has been Harper Jayne’s goal for a very long time. Known as the King of Wall Street, Max is the best of the best at what he does, and Harper is anxious to learn from the best. Finding out that he’s a total jerk, though? Not so much.

Louise Bay’s books are always an automatic must-read for me. Having loved her since her earliest books, I am always completely captivated by her characters, her stories, just everything. So, when she announced her newest standalone, KING OF WALL STREET, I was one of the many fans eagerly waiting to see just what kind of magic she’d woven this time.

Let me just say, oh, my gosh. There isn’t one of Louise’s main men that I’ve disliked, but, Max King? Just, all of the yeses. Max hasn’t gotten his nickname for being anything less than masterful at what he does, but, beneath that calm, cool, take no prisoners professional demeanor, beats the heart of a devoted family man. He may be calling all of the shots on any given day, but when he goes home, it’s all about his girl, his daughter Amanda. Determined to always put her first, Max will do anything to protect the life that they’ve created, all while doing what it takes to maintain his place in the business world.

And Harper. Harper is just the sort of quirky bird that Louise writes so well. She’s smart, snarky, sassy, and entirely focused on her goal of working for Max. Fueled by the desire to prove to her long-absent father that she can take on the world of business and win, Harper doesn’t have time for anything but carving out her own spot on Wall Street. When reality sets in, and Harper’s experience with Max isn’t quite what she’s expected, she’s ready to up her game with Max’s help, or without. Finding out that that tough shell houses a man that she can’t stay away from, professional relationships be darned, makes for a very interesting turn of events.

I loved everything about this book. Two headstrong, self-assured personalities that have the ability to undo each other with a look, a word, a touch, dialogue that had me laughing out loud, and the sense of family that is always a part of Louise’s books, made up of a precocious 14-year-old, interfering sisters, and a best friend with great if infuriating advice, makes for the kind of read that grabs me and doesn’t let go. This is a definite 5-star read for me, and I really hope (Louise, are you reading this?!) to see more of these characters in the future.

A stand-alone Quantum story from New York Times bestselling author M.S. Force!

She wants a baby. He wants her. Simple enough, right?

When Jasper Autry hears about Ellie’s plan, what else can he do but step in and offer to “contribute” to her project. Does that make him an opportunist? Whatever. He wants the perpetually out-of-reach Ellie Godfrey, and when he sees his chance, he takes it. That she’s the sister of his business partner and close friend Flynn gives him pause, but it doesn’t stop him from having what he wants.

As Jasper and Ellie embark upon their secret “project,” he makes it clear that for as long as they’re together, he’s in charge—in the bedroom anyway. After the hottest sex of her life, Ellie realizes she’s made a deal with the devil himself.

Michel’s Review

I absolutely love the Quantum series by M. S. Force.  The dynamic Quantum group is back and they are taking more than Hollywood by storm.

Ravenous can be read as a stand alone novel or in series order.  This is a stand alone novel, there are no cliffhangers.

Ellie Godfrey’s biological clock is ticking.  She is established in her career.  She has a great job and her own home.  The only thing missing is a family of her own.  The problem is she’s single and has no significant other.  She’s a modern woman and is ready to take the next step by consulting with a fertility clinic.  When she confides her secret to Jasper Autrey, he quickly volunteers to help out.

Surprise, award winning cinematographer Jasper Autrey is going to be a daddy!  He’s volunteered to father Ellie’s child.  He’s willing to make a deposit in the traditional manner. He doesn’t plan on having children of his own.  Providing Ellie with a donation is the perfect solution.  He can be a father from afar without being responsible.  His lifestyle won’t change. His membership at Quantum will remain anonymous.  His other personal secrets won’t be exposed.  His child won’t have to carry the burdens of his secrets.

Ellie and Jasper decide to keep their mission a secret from the rest of the group at Quantum.  They’ve worked out the legalities and now are ready for business.  Business has never been more fun or sexier.  Making a baby is turning into the bonus rather than the reward.  Jasper and Ellie are burning up the sheets, the desks, and any other surface available.  All is going well until Jasper and Ellie realize they are falling in love.

Jasper has secrets that could destroy his life.  When he finds the courage to face those secrets not only do they blow up in his face but could also destroy all of his friends at Quantum.  It could destroy his relationship with Ellie.

Ellie is a strong woman willing to help Jasper bear his burdens.  She’s not only fighting for her child but also her love for Jasper.

How it turns out is perfect for all the folks at Quantum.  Another one has bit the dust.  Who will fall next in the Quantum group? I can’t wait to find out.

I love this series!  Ravenous is by far my favorite book so far.

Show Me How

Thatch Series – Book 3

By Molly McAdams

Buy: Amazon / B & N / IBooks / Kobo

ab38e-goodreads

Synopsis

After her first love was ripped from her grasp four years earlier, Charlie Easton was sure she would never be able to trust anyone with the shattered pieces of her heart again. That is, until Deacon Carver forces himself into her life, and makes those pieces swirl in chaos. But Charlie doesn’t know how to let him in… until a stranger stumbles upon a notebook filled with her innermost secrets, and shows her how.

Deacon Carver is known for sleeping his way through the town of Thatch, as well as the surrounding cities—something he used to take pride in. But that persona has haunted Deacon ever since he decided to leave that life behind for the girl he wants more than anything: Charlie Easton.

But when another girl falls into Deacon’s life, allowing him to be himself without judgment for his past, will their conversations hinder his relationship with Charlie … even if he’s never seen her?

Michel’s Review

Oh how the mighty have fallen.  Deacon Carver, the legendary player in Thatch series has fallen hard for a woman he can’t stand.  A woman that betrayed his best friends, used her brother, and has returned home to use them up once again.  Charlie Easton may be one of his best friends little sister but she is not going to win him over.

Like most things, there are always two sides to every story.  What Deacon perceives as betrayals are Charlie’s burdens to carry.  The love of her life is dead, he broke her heart and left her pregnant and alone.  He used her, dumped her, and was engaged to another woman before he died suddenly. He never had a chance to meet his son. That was the beginning of more betrayals to come.  Her mother gained custody of her child and abandon them both.  Her brother gained custody and forced her to go away to school while he raised her son.  Now she’s finished with school and back in town.  She’s determined to get custody of her son and make a good life for them both.  She never anticipated Deacon Carver changing her carefully mapped out plans.  She has trust issues and a notorious player isn’t going to change them.

Both Charlie and Deacon are both going to experience changes in their lives.  These changes are for the better.  They are both going to learn to love and trust with their full hearts.  A beautiful little boy is going to gain a real family that only a super hero can appreciate.

Show Me How was a great addition to the Thatch series by Molly McAdams.  I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Grey and Ben fell in love at thirteen and believed they’d be together forever. But three days before their wedding, the twenty-year-old groom-to-be suddenly died from an unknown heart condition, destroying his would-be-bride’s world. If it hadn’t been for their best friend, Jagger, Grey never would have made it through those last two years to graduation.

Jagger swears he’ll always be there for her, but no one has ever been able to hold on to him. He’s not the kind of guy to settle down.

It’s true that no one has ever been able to keep Jagger—because he’s only ever belonged to Grey. While everyone else worries over Grey’s fragility, he’s the only one who sees her strength. Yet as much as he wants Grey, he knows her heart will always be with Ben. Still they can’t deny the heat that is growing between them—a passion that soon becomes too hot to handle.

Furious Rush

By S. C. Stephens

Buy: Amazon / B & N / IBooks / Kobo

ab38e-goodreads

Synopsis

Too fast, too furious-and way too hot to handle . . .

Mackenzie Cox has a lot to prove. Daughter of a racing legend, she is eager to show the world that she has inherited her father’s talent in the male-dominated sport of professional motorcycle racing. The last thing Kenzie needs is to be antagonized by her rival team’s newest rider, Hayden Hayes. Plucked from the world of illegal street racing, Hayden immediately gets under Kenzie’s skin. His insinuations that Kenzie is a spoiled princess who was handed her career fuels her desire to win, and much to her surprise, Kenzie soon learns she performs better when she’s racing against Hayden.

As Kenzie and Hayden push each other on the track, the electric energy between them off the track shifts into an intense–and strictly forbidden–attraction. The only rule between their two ultra-competitive teams is zero contact. Kenzie always does her best to play by the rules, but when her team slips into a financial crisis, she has no choice but to turn to Hayden for help. The tension simmers during their secret, late-night rendezvous, but Kenzie has too much to lose to give in to her desires. Especially when she begins to doubt that Hayden has completely left his street life behind…

Michel’s Review

Furious Rush by S. C. Stephens is a winner.

Mackenzie Cox has a lot to prove in the world of motorcycle racing.  Living in the shadows of her father, a racing legend, being a rookie in the sport as well as  being the only female on the Cox Racing Team, is pure pressure.  To make matters worse the Cox Racing Team is about bankrupt. The major financial problems could make or break the existence of this legendary team.  Their rival competitors are the Benneti Motorsports team. There is more to it than being competitive teams, there is bad blood between them.  The owner Keith Benneti is her father’s worst  enemy.

Mackenzie’s rookie year has her in a complete tailspin.  Her main competition is Hayden Hayes, a former street racer that rides for the Benneti team.  She hates that she is immensely attracted to the enemy.  There’s more to Hayden than his illegal racing past. He revs her motor in many ways.  His influence makes her a better rider.

With Hayden’s sketchy past and position on the opposing team, he is off limits.  Plus Cox Racing is experiencing sabotage every race day.  Is Hayden behind it?  Is Benneti Motorsports behind it?  The sabotage will ruin what is left of the Cox Racing Team.

When her father learns she is fraternizing with the enemy, it could very well ruin Mackenzie’s position on the team as well as her career in racing.  When she’s forced to do the unthinkable to save Cox Racing. She has more to lose more than her position on the team. She may lose everything she holds dear.

Once again S. C. Stephens delivered a red hot book loaded with pure angst.  I can’t wait to see what comes next.

Synopsis

He told me to ‘settle, girl.’
He asked if ‘something was wrong with me?’
He said I was an ‘easy target.’
That was within minutes when I first met Caden Banks.
I labeled him an *sshole, but he was more than that. Arrogant. Smug. Alpha.

He was also to-die-for gorgeous, and my stepbrother’s fraternity brother.

Okay, yes I was a little naive, a tad bit socially awkward, and the smallest amount of stalker-ish, but if Caden Banks thought he could tell me what to do, he had another thing coming.

I came to college with daydreams about being with my stepbrother, but what would happen if I fell for the anti-stepbrother instead?

Excerpt

He wasn’t looking at me any more. I wasn’t even sure he was really in the room.

I needed to leave this alone. He had given me the clues—looking away, his jaw clenching, pain like I’d never heard from him sounding loud and clear. My instincts were telling me to shut up, but I couldn’t. I had this burning need to know more about Caden. I needed to get in there, past his walls, and I wanted to understand him.

I wanted to help him.

Caden was hurting, and I wanted to take that away.

“What happened?”

Caden turned his gaze to me now, and I felt branded by the pain I saw. His eyes were stricken. “Does it matter?”

“No.” My breath caught and held in my chest. I wanted to go to him, but I also wanted to slink away. I was stirring up his pain, but I had to know. “What happened, Caden?”

“Why do you have to know?”

“Because it’s hurting you.”

I made a decision, though I had no idea what the ramifications were going to be. I stood, my legs going numb and my stomach clenching, and I moved to his side. He leaned back, his head falling to the couch, and he watched me.

The need to ease some of his hurt outweighed the fear of what would happen next. Swallowing tightly, I stepped over to straddle him and sat down.

“What are you doing?”

He asked that softly, still holding his beer. I took it from his hands and put it on the stand next to the couch. Then I just sat there. He had to do the rest. I’d already made the first move.

I glanced down at his hands, feeling like an idiot. “What happened?”

“Why are you pushing this?”

I looked back up to find confusion warring with need in his eyes. He wasn’t pushing me away, so I sank further into his lap.

“You haven’t told anyone else about this.” It wasn’t really a question, but I saw the confirmation in his eyes. My chest tightened, thinking about whatever secret he held. “Please tell me.”

“No.” He shifted forward, and I braced myself, expecting him to push me away. He didn’t. His hands grasped the backs of my legs and lifted me so I was more fully on his lap.

I could feel him between my legs, and my breasts almost pressed against his chest. I waited. I wanted to see what else he’d say

“But not because I don’t want you to know,” he added. “Because it’s not my secret to tell.”

I nodded, my stomach doing somersaults now. “That makes sense. I can respect that.”

And there we were. His hands cupped my ass, and the pain in his gaze became something darker, something I felt too, something that began to turn off all rational thought.

“What are we doing here?” he questioned, his voice like a caress in itself.

I leaned forward, my gaze lingering on his lips. “I didn’t really think it through.”

“And now?”

“Still not thinking it through.”

“You’re okay with that?”

In that moment, the truth exploded in me. I wanted him. I wanted this—but it was more. I needed this.

I didn’t answer.

I closed the distance between us.

Michel’s Review

Summer was looking forward to her first year at North River University.  Not only was it the beginning of her higher education , she was finally going to be with the guy she loved, her stepbrother Kevin Matthews.

Her first day at NRU did not go as expected.  Her first year at NRU was nothing like the plan she had mapped out.  Her higher education was more than academics.  It was a learning experience about “real” life.

All freshman are required to take core classes before beginning their field of study.  One of those classes is Statistics.  Statistics can be a difficult class on it’s own merit but add the statistics of life into the mix and it becomes downright brutal.  Summer began with this problem… What are the chances of Summer surviving freshman year?  Can you figure out this problem ?

The Answer: Read The Book

I could not put this book down.  The twist and turns, the dynamic characters, and college drama kept me glued to the pages.  This book was not only a book with a romance, it was a book about life.  I loved it and would highly recommend this book!

_____________________

tijan bio I didn’t begin writing until after undergraduate college. There’d been storylines and characters in my head all my life, but it came to a boiling point one day and I HAD to get them out of me. So the computer was booted up and I FINALLY felt it click. Writing is what I needed to do. After that, I had to teach myself how to write. I can’t blame my teachers for not teaching me all those years in school. It was my fault. I was one of the students that was wishing I was anywhere but at school! So after that day, it took me lots of work until I was able to put together something that resembled a novel. I’m hoping I got it right since someone must be reading this profile! And I hope you keep enjoying my future stories.

“A great book to read on a hot night.” -Kelly Akemann, This Wacky Momma Reads!

This Entangled Teen Crush book contains multiple PDAs, after-school detentions, and gambling on the side. Warning: betting on a boyfriend is bad for your health.

Zoe Cain knows that Grant Evertide is way out of her league. So naturally, she kisses him. Out of spite. Not only is Grant her brother’s number-one nemesis, but he has zero interest in being tied down to one girl. She’s shocked—and secretly thrilled—when they start spending more time together.

Zoe’s brother claims Grant is trying to make her his “Ringer,” an oh-so-charming tradition where a popular guy dates a non-popular girl until he hooks up with her, then dumps her. Zoe threatens to neuter Grant with hedge clippers if he’s lying but Grant swears he isn’t trying to trick her. Still, that doesn’t mean Grant is the commitment type—even if winning a bet is on the line.

Each book in the Boyfriend Chronicles series is a standalone, full-length story that can be enjoyed our of order.

Michel’s Review

Zoe Cain is ready for her new school.  Starting her junior year at the exclusive private school , Wilton Academy, should be a breeze.  Her brother Jack, a senior has paved the way.  Being a local rather than one of the privileged doesn’t bother Zoe in the least.  She’s there to get a good education and maybe make her brother a little bit miserable.  After all that’s what siblings do.

The first day starts out on the right foot.  She meets her brother’s worst enemy, Grant Eventide.  To make matters worse she kisses him.  Let the fun begin.

Zoe’s brother Jack wants her to stay away from Grant.  Grant’s ex girlfriend wants Zoe to stay away from Grant.  Zoe’s best friend encourages her to hang out with Grant.  The school is taking bets on what comes next for Grant and Zoe.  Is Zoe destined to be a ringer, the girl that gets used by the popular boy and dumped when it’s time for the dance?  Jack thinks so.  Zoe doesn’t care.  Grant is intrigued with Zoe, she keeps surprising him.  All bets are on Grant.  Zoe is placing her own bet on herself.

Grant doesn’t really want a girlfriend this year.  He can’t stay away from Zoe.  She sees him for who he really is, not who he’s supposed to be.

Zoe is confident enough to handle her junior year and Grant Eventide.  He’s worth the daily detentions.

The Boyfriend Bet by Chris Cannon is a sure thing.  It’s the perfect back to school book. I’m betting all the readers are going to enjoy this sassy romance as much as I did.

Daring The Bad Boy

Endless Summer Series

Genre: YA – Entangled Teen Crush

Buy: Amazon / B & N

32623-goodreads

Synopsis

Disclaimer: This Entangled Teen Crush book contains references to drinking, sexual situations, adult language, and an intense bad boy hero who will melt your heart.

Annie McFarland is sick of being a shy nobody. A session at summer camp seems like the perfect opportunity to reinvent herself—gain some confidence, kiss a boy, be whoever she wants to be. A few days in, she’s already set her sights on über-hottie Kyle. Too bad her fear of water keeps her away from the lake, where Kyle is always hanging out.

Jacob Fazio is at Camp Pine Ridge after one too many screw-ups. Junior counseling seems like punishment enough, but the rigid no-fraternizing-with-campers rules harsh his chill. When a night of Truth or Dare gets him roped into teaching Annie how to swim, she begs him to also teach her how to snag Kyle.

Late-night swim sessions turn into late-night kissing sessions…but there’s more on the line than just their hearts. If they get caught, Jake’s headed straight to juvie, but Annie’s more than ready to dare him to reveal the truth.

Michel’s Review

Monica Murphy can write a love story for every generation.  She has a talent of creating characters and a compelling story that any reader of any genre will enjoy.

Daring The Bad Boy is the perfect teen romance.  A shy girl meets a troubled boy.  Both are  at summer camp for very different reasons.  Annie wants to overcome her shyness and become a more social person.  Jacob has been in trouble since his mother passed away. He has been ordered by the court to work at his uncle’s summer camp or do time in juvie.

Jacob is focused on staying out of trouble.  One of his uncle’s hard rules is to stay away from the campers.  When he meets Annie, he can’t help but be intrigued.  In many ways she doesn’t quite fit. In other ways, she stands out among the girls at camp.

When Annie persuades Jacob to give her swimming lessons and help her with another boy, a friendship begins.  A friendship that leads to love.  A love that could be trouble for them both.

Monica tapped into her inner teenager and delivered a book that all teenagers can relate to.  I would highly recommend this book to girls ages 13 to 16 years old.  It is the perfect sweet romance that any parent would approve of their daughters reading.

Michel’s Review

The Wind Dragons MC by Chantal Fernando is becoming one of my favorite series.  I devour each book the day it releases.  I have been looking forward to Wolf’s Mate because it was Vinnie’s book.  Vinnie was the young prospect we met in the very first book.  He has been the designated protector of the Wind Dragon old ladies throughout the series.  It’s time for Vinnie to get an old lady of his own.

Other than his interaction within the club and the old ladies, readers have not been introduced to the real Vinnie.  Vinnie was brought up in the foster care system.  He never had a family until he joined the Wind Dragons.  They taught him loyalty, honor, love, and brotherhood.  He would do anything for his family, including protecting a woman related to  the Wild Men MC.  He owes the president a marker.  He is a man of honor and makes good to his word.  He had been enlisted to protect Talon’s cousin, Shayla.

Shayla is hidden away and under twenty four hour protection.  Her father was an accountant for the mob.  He was arrested and is turning over vital information. He has damning evidence.  His betrayal has left Shay in danger. There’s are mark on Shay.  Shay wasn’t involved, she’s just collateral.

Shay is nothing like Vinnie expected.  She’s not the entitled, wealthy , spoiled girl he was led to believe.  She’s been kept prisoner in order to remain safe.

What starts out as a bodyguard job turns into matters of the heart.  Vinnie will protect Shay at all costs.  He and the Wind Dragons will get to the bottom of this mess and find the real threats and enemies.

Vinnie and Shay are going to learn the true meaning of family and loyalty.

Once again I was hooked.  I love this series.

Internationally bestselling author Chantal Fernando brings fans another sexy motorcycle novella in the Wind Dragons MC series, as rival club president Talon has to decide what’s more dangerous: facing down the WDMC, or losing his heart to a woman under their protection.

Talon has a complicated relationship with the Wind Dragons Motorcycle Club. He’s the president of their rival club, the Wild Men, but he’s also related to one of their members—who hates him. He could handle that, but he’s also got problems in his own club; someone is leaking information and disrupting their business, but Talon can’t find the mole. So the last thing he needs is even more complication in the form of a beautiful single mother who’s bolder than half the bikers on his squad. But he can’t take his eyes—or his hands—off her…

Tia’s always been a little reckless, up for a good time wherever she found it, but she’s also a great mom to her young son. So even though she thinks Talon is basically sex on a stick, when she realizes she wants to be more to him than just a club groupie, she has to take things a bit slow. Plus, a momentary attraction, no matter how smoking hot, isn’t worth risking her son’s happiness in any way. Is there any chance that Talon might be up for a more permanent arrangement? Or has Tia leapt before looking once again?

Indecent Proposal

The O’Malleys Series – Book 3

By Katee Robert

Release Date: August 30, 2016

Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Kobo | iTunes

0b90a-goodreads

Synopsis

Greed. Ambition. Violence. Those are the “values” Olivia Rashidi learned from her Russian mob family-and the values she must leave behind for the sake of her daughter. When she meets Cillian O’Malley, she recognizes the red flag of his family name . . . yet she still can’t stop herself from seeing the smoldering, tortured man. To save her family, Olivia sets out to discover Cillian’s own secrets, but the real revelation is how fast-and how hard-she’s falling for him.

Plagued by a violent past, Cillian is more vulnerable than anyone realizes. Anyone except Olivia, whose beauty, compassion, and pride have him at “hello,” even if she’s more inclined to say good-bye to an O’Malley. While his proposal of sex with no strings seems simple, what he feels for her isn’t, especially after he learns that she belongs to a rival crime family. Cillian knows that there is no escape from the life, but Olivia may be worth trying-and dying-for . . .

4.5 Star

Tracey’s Review

Cillian O’Malley has always been known as the hell-raiser, the skirt chaser, the O’Malley most likely to find himself in the middle of trouble. But that was before, before the night his beloved brother died, and everything changed. Olivia Rashidi is running. Determined to escape the long and powerful arm of her half-brother Dimitri, she’s made Boston home for her and her young daughter, hiding in plain sight, and trying to stay out of trouble.

Any book that Katee Robert writes is guaranteed to land at the very top of my TBR list. Her characters, the stories, the dialogue, Katee is the mistress of bringing all things together for a read that is sure to engage. I have read and enjoyed the first two books in her series about the O’Malley family of Boston, and AN INDECENT PROPOSAL is my favorite so far.

As the middle sibling in the powerful O’Malley clan, Cillian O’Malley has had it fairly easy. He doesn’t have the burden of taking over the reins of the family business from his father, and marrying him off to help ally them with one the other powerful crime families isn’t in the cards. Since the tragic death of his brother, Devlin, Cillian has been keeping his nose clean and learning more of his part as the numbers man for the far-reaching and varied O’Malley interests. The one woman that he can’t forget, though, is Olivia Rashidi. As the illegitimate daughter of one of the most powerful Russian syndicates, she knows all too well the reality of being part of a mob family, and wants no part of it for her daughter. Cillian, with his charm, his dark sex appeal, and his refusal to leave her alone, has all of her alarms going off, but darned if she can’t stay away.

I’m going to tell you that Katee can write a steamy scene like nobody’s dang business. The chemistry between Cillian and Olivia is off-the-charts hot, and Cillian can bring it. I mean, seriously, smoke might have been coming out of my e-reader at some points while I was reading this book. And, besides the intense physical attraction, these two just click in every way, smoothing out each others’ rough edges and creating a safe place for each other.

AN INDECENT PROPOSAL continues the complex and intense O’Malley saga, and does it very well. I was so invested in seeing how things played out for everyone that I literally could not put this one down. I love that Katee has created this intricate tapestry of the inter-mingling of the three big families that rule Boston, and bringing the Romanovs more fully into the thick of things really amped things up. Everyone is so very different, even coming from the same backgrounds, and I am really enjoying seeing each character’s story as it plays out. Sloan O’Malley has been a bit of a mystery throughout the series, and I am looking very forward to FORBIDDEN PROMISES, her story. AN INDECENT PROPOSAL is 4.5 hot, suspenseful, powerful stars of a thrill ride, and, as are all of Katee’s books, one that I happily recommend.

Hallorans vs. O’Malleys—that’s how it’s always been.
