Tracey’s Review

Oh, hi. I’m just over here, trying to put my heart back together. You know, the usual follow-up to finishing any book by A.L. Jackson. Once again, Amy has wrung every possible emotion out of me, written a book that destroyed me and built me back up in a way that only she can, and I am loving it.

I knew. I mean, having read the first two books in the Falling Stars series, I knew that Richard Ramsey had some dark secrets, secrets that he was holding close, secrets that had the power to destroy everything that he held dear. What I wasn’t expecting was his depth, the way that his heart beat for so many people, and the lengths that he had gone and would go to to share that love. I fell in love with Richard, in all of his beautiful brokenness.

Violet. I do believe that I fell in love with Violet, too. Carrying such a heavy weight in her heart, she’s proven herself stronger than the despair that changed her life to bring beauty to the world around her. Her heart beats with the amor, amor, amor that helped make her the person that she is, a bringer of light and love.

I’m not going to lie, there are dark things in this book, things that broke my heart. But, as much as it is almost physically painful to get through her books sometimes, Amy, bless her, is a bringer of light and love, too, so take solace in the knowledge that there is joy on the other side. FALLING INTO YOU is light and darkness, gain and loss, pain and joy, and it is one of the most intense books that I have read lately. It’s also, no surprise, one of the best books that I’ve read this year, and is, of course, an immediate favorite. If you haven’t dived into this world, you are truly missing out, and the members of Carolina George should be very high atop your TBR. Do yourself a favor and get to know them all. ❤️

P.S. Do not read this book before you have to be anywhere, because you will be a blubbering mess. ❤️

Tracey’s Review

It has been a hot minute since I’ve read a book by Kristy Bromberg, and I could not have found a more enjoyable way to dive back in than FLIRTING WITH 40. I’m not going to lie, this book is pure unadulterated pleasure, and I enjoyed every single page.

As a woman of a certain age, I identified with Blakely. Not only did her husband leave her for a younger woman, Blakely has had a hard time remembering that she is all of that and a bag of chips. For real, she’s smart, savvy, beautiful, funny, and, yeah, she’s almost reached the Big 4-0, but with maturity and her experience, she has seriously got so much to offer.

It takes a chance encounter in a bar with a very attractive and attentive man to kick off her journey back to herself, and what a way to go. Slade is my absolute favorite new book boyfriend. With plenty on his own plate, he jumps in to help Blakely see herself the way that he sees her, and regain the confidence to go for the things that she both wants and deserves in her life.

Kristy had me from the first page with this book, earning it a spot among my top favorite reads of this year. If a book grabs me by the heartstrings and won’t let go, while still managing to be sassy and sexy, too, it’s a keeper. FLIRTING WITH 40 is 4.5 stars of delightfulness, and a definite must-read for fans of contemporary romance with some angst thrown in. I could read books like this all day long, and if Kristy’s writing them, I’m all in. Make a place on your TBR for this one, and enjoy. ❤️

Title: Unholy Intent
Series: Unholy Union Duet #2
Author: Natasha Knight
Genre: Dark Romance
Release Date: September 15, 2020
Blurb

Monsters don’t often look like monsters on the outside. 

Forced to marry a man I should hate, I’m now bound to Damian. 

I sometimes wonder what he sees when he looks at me. Deer in headlights, I guess. 

What I see is clear.

Darkness.

Desire.

Carnal want.

A man with too much experience.

The night he took me he told me I belong to him. He proved it on our wedding night. And I believe him when he says he’ll keep me safe. He won’t let anyone touch what’s his.

But I can’t forget what he is. Can’t forget the things he’s done.

And no matter what, I can’t let myself fall in love with him.

Excerpt
“Welcome home, Brother.”
I look up at Damian. Beautiful Damian.
He shifts his gaze to mine. 
“Didn’t I tell you to leave the locked doors alone?” he asks me, but his voice is strange. Echoing in this dusty, forgotten place.
The music starts again. That eerie sound of piano keys played slowly, so fitting to this place, this room, this house. 
My head is spinning. 
The other man, Damian’s brother, says something. His voice is similar to Damian’s but off. Like his face. Wrong.
Damian tucks hair behind my ear. 
I push his hand away, push his arms away. I turn slowly. They’re both watching me now, waiting to see what I’ll do. 
And the tune keeps playing, the chords slow. Sad.
I need to look at him. 
Can they hear my heartbeat? Blood beats like a drum against my ears. 
Run.
Run.
But I can’t run. I meet a monster at every turn. One standing behind me. The other holding me. 
He warned me about the monsters. How many more hide in this house?
“Cristina,” Damian says. 
I keep turning, my body still pressed to Damian’s.
I’ve taken shelter in my enemy’s arms. 
He’s in my periphery now. The monster. The brother. Tall, like Damian. I see the coat. It’s wet. He was the man walking back toward the house. It wasn’t Damian at all. What is out there that they go to see in the dead of night?

Ashley’s Review
Natasha Knight has delievered yet another fantastic story with Unholy Intent, book 2 in the Unholy Duet.

Family betrayal, secrets and twists you don’t see coming make the best ingredients for a dark mafia romance.

Damian and Cristina are a force. Their chemistry it unmatched. Their relationship is unhinged. I loved the slow burn from book one into the combustible chemistry in this book.

Explosive action and suspense with great character development and a riveting storyline make this a must read for any lover of dark romance.

4.5 stars

Excerpt
The walk and fresh air do me good. I feel invigorated when I get to an open-air textile market I remember from driving past here once. The smell of grilled chestnuts from the vendor stand mixes with the odor of chemical dye from the fabric. Weaving through the aisles, I drag the familiar perfume into my lungs. Despite my situation, my spirits lift. It’s like the smell of roasted beans when entering a coffee shop on a cold morning or the welcoming scent of ink and paper in a bookstore on a lazy afternoon. Only, it’s the cocktail of threads and colors that makes my heart beat faster. With it comes the rush of memories from the fashion academy and, like an answering echo, a wave of nostalgia. I miss this. I miss the slide of fabric through my fingers and the soothing hum of a
sewing machine.
A piece of organza hanging from a wooden rail lifts in the breeze. The floral print catches my eye. It’s pink and lilac, soft and lovely. I said I was done with sewing, but maybe it’s because I’ve been stuck on my old designs. Romantic designs. Walking to a stand with a much statelier roll of navy linen, I rub the coarse fabric between my fingers. Maybe I was looking at the wrong dreams.
“Would you like this fabric, ma’am?” the vendor asks.
I look up. The woman has a friendly smile. A red scarf tied around her hair brings out the warm tone of her skin and eyes.
I don’t have any money on me. I didn’t even know this was my destination when I started walking. “Oh, I’m just browsing.”
“Please cut the lady however much she wants,” a deep voice says.
I spin on my heel. The sight of him takes my breath away even after all this time. With his hands shoved into his pockets, Maxime’s stance is relaxed, but I recognize the power running underneath. As always, he’s dressed immaculately. Even his casual street clothes scream of sophistication and a keen sense of fashion. A roll-neck black T-shirt and fitted pants are rounded off with a brown coat, matching scarf, and short boots, but it’s not the clothes that define the man. It’s his presence. It’s how he dominates the space and demands attention. It’s what that look on his face promises. Women stop talking to stare. I stare, too. I take in the familiar sharp chin and deep lines, the crooked nose and bump on the bridge, the gray eyes that cut through defenses and intentions, and
the strong mouth that makes knees weak. His hair is ruffled, curlier from the humid air, and the longer sideburns give him an artistic look. He could be an eccentric painter or a brilliant rocket scientist, a mafia boss or a man bathing a woman on his knees. He could be a jet fighter pilot or a diamond tycoon. A woman’s imagination could run wild. What every female here knows with
instinctive knowledge is that those hands, those hidden hands, can stroke a cheek as gently as they can squeeze around a throat. This is a man who can make a woman’s fantasies come true, and his gaze is trained on me with possessiveness. Adoration. Lust.
Our gazes remained locked as he takes his wallet out of his pocket and pulls out a few bills.
The vendor clears her throat. Her voice is husky when she asks, “How many meters would you like, ma’am?”
“Three, please,” I say, ripping a number from the sky.
Maxime’s lips lift in one corner. The smile makes his unconventionally beautiful-unattractive face seem more predatory than friendly.
Leaning closer, he presses his lips against my ear and says in English, “Let me buy this for you.”
The foreign accent hits me between the knees. We’ve been speaking French since my return.
I’ve forgotten what his deep timbre sounds like when he whispers in my mother tongue. He smells like the king of winter, of cold weather and citrusy days. The perfume of chemical dye retreats as that winter heat rushes over me. The man and everything he stand for overwhelm my senses. That my mind can focus on his words is a miracle. I think back to his story, to the man who had two choices, the kidnapper who could take his target kindly or with force. I don’t want force. I don’t want kindness. I want honesty.
“Why?” I ask with a dry throat.
His breath strokes over my ear. His words are self-assured and seductive. “Because I can.”
Pulling away, he creates an avalanche of cold when he takes his heat with him. I look down
to where he’s rubbing the fabric between his fingers in a gesture that seems oddly like a caress. I shiver as if feeling that caress on my skin.
Because he can.
Ashley’s Review
Diamonds are Forever is the last book in this Trilogy by Charmaine Pauls.

The last book left us with a cliffhanger of epic proportions so naturally I was eager to get my hands on this final book.

This book picks up with Zoe headed back to South Africa after getting help from her brother. Maxime is beside himself and is determined to get Zoe back.

There’s a switch in power I felt. Where Maxime was in control in the previous books, you see a shift to Zoe. I liked seeing this driven and strong side of her.

This book showed the true growth of both Maxime and Zoe as individuals and as a couple. They have both evolved and changed. While Maxime says he is incapable of love, we see he can very much love Zoe in his own way. Zoe has become stronger. She’s driven. You see a hardness to her in this book.

Overall I enjoyed this final book. I loved the growth of Maxime and Zoe and enjoyed getting to see Zoe interact with her brother.

4.5 stars!

Release Date: September 10
 

This wasn’t the life I was meant to live. 


According to my family, to The Nation, I should be working on my ascension. 

 

But I couldn’t. Not after everything I’d seen, everything they made me do.

 

After everything that had been done to me. I had to run away.
Now, it’s been years of living on the outside in a life I thought I had finally pulled together.

Until I met her. She changed everything for me.Slowly, the cracks of my facade began crumbling, revealing the secrets I hadn’t realized were buried around my seemingly mundane life.

I should run again, but with her by my side? I think we can tear everything down together.

 

TRIGGER WARNING: This book confronts serious issues that can be potential triggers, such as rape, drugs, and violence. It does contain scenes in which sexual content is written in explicit detail.

Ashley’s Review

Dark enticing chemistry that explodes off the pages, Vibe has me captivated beyond anything I expected.
Aura escaped her past but hasn’t forgotten it. The nightmares are still vivid and the past is still very real. Adapting to adulthood she’s content, she’s got a handsome boyfriend, a best friend and a successful photography business but somethings still amiss.
Ruby is beautiful. She’s mysterious. She’s sexual.
When Aura and Ruby meet, the universe shifts. It’s aligned in the stars. It’s fate.
Their love is dark. It’s tragic. It’s twisted. It’s real and nothing will destroy it.
This book is F/F but I’m not going to lie, it was hot AF!!!
This book will stick with you long after you’ve finished. Amazingly written and completely intoxicating, you’ll find yourself consumed by this story.
5 stars of twisted perfection.

 

 

 

 

 

Meet Liza James

 

I remember writing my first book when I was just a kid. It was a short children’s story that my mom loved so much, she took the time to get our friend to illustrate all of the pages. 

 

I had decided back then, that when I grew up I was going to be an author. Funny how we grow up and things change so drastically, right? As I got older, I began the age old search of trying to figure out exactly what I wanted in life. 
 
I got married at 18, moved across the world with my husband and spent the next several years trying so many different things in order to find my fit. I fell in love with so many things as well, including photography, calligraphy, music, and letterpress. 
 
But writing and reading have always remained a constant love of mine. Oddly enough, it was the only thing I never spoke about. I kept it very private, starting several different stories and ultimately not finishing them. I never spoke about what I was writing with anyone, or very very few people once in a while. I didn’t even share what I wrote with my family or my husband.
 
This year, a lot of things changed. I found myself coming to a place in my life as a mom, a wife, a friend, but still not as MYSELF. I continued struggling with my own identity, struggling with who I was outside of being a wife and mother. So, I made it a goal to write and finish my first novel in 2019. I decided to CHOOSE my path and create it for myself, choose my identity and allow my passion for writing to come at the forefront of that. 
 
I am a mother. I am a wife. I am a friend and a lover of many many things. But I am also a writer, I’m an author, and loving every moment of embracing myself in all of those things.
 
So, here I am today, writing this blurb about my “story” and laughing to myself just a bit. Because this is just the beginning of what my story was and is going to be, and I’m ready to embrace whatever this new adventure has for me.

Ashley’s Review
Unholy Union is Book One in an all new duet by Natasha Knight! A True Queen of Mafia Romance this book has all the perfect ingredients for a successful mafia romance.

Damian and Cristina met on a dark night when she was nine. A night that forever changed her life and has plagued her since.

Now an adult, she’s tormented every year on her birthday by a gift that’s anything but wanted. But this year is different, this year marks the end of life as she knows it and a reunion she’s not ready for.

This book was suspenseful to say the least. I had no idea what to expect and what secrets awaited. So many twists and turns. Betrayal. Let’s not forget that gasp worthy ending!!!

This book is low on the steam scale but I have a feeling things are going to ignite in book 2.

4.5 stars

🔥🔥 HOT COVER REVEAL 🔥🔥

Coming September 20 from Casey Diam is Bad Choices & Heartaches, a standalone new adult sports romance with all the feels. Pre-order today!!

BLURB

Ryker Stanley was a stunning specimen of a human, a creation that was aesthetically flawless. He is also a jerk.

I know he hasn’t always been this way—after all, we were once best friends, but when our friendship ended, I watched from the sidelines as he made a series of bad choices, and left dozens of broken hearts in his wake.

He has the looks, the charm, the girls, and as an elite football player, he’s heading off to college months earlier than anyone expected. I need to stay in Alpen Springs, to continue to train for the Olympics.

My timing might not be perfect, but I need to fix things with us, and if the fire in his eyes is any indication, nothing, including our clothes, will be immune to its heat.

I don’t stand a chance of resisting.

Conflicting goals and distance be damned . . . I am about to entrust my heart to my ex-best friend who is known for breaking them.
