Synopsis

Love is a wild ride.
After enduring months of torture at the hands of the Black Jacks MC, and betrayed by his own club, Holt “T-Rex” Savage, a junior member of the Sinner’s Tribe Motorcycle Club, will stop at nothing to get revenge. But falling for a beautiful woman with dangerous ties to his sworn enemy was never part of the plan…

Raised by the Black Jacks, Naiya Kelly grew up fast, furiously, and with little to lose. But now that she’s put her MC days behind her, she is free to do what she wants—until she meets a man who imprisons her, body and soul. She swore she’d never give her heart to a biker, but Holt is the most passionate, protective man she’s ever known. But will Holt be forced to betray his one true love to exact his revenge?

CHAOS BOUND TEASER-2

Excerpt

Holt spotted Naiya at a table with Ally as soon as he entered the bar.

Ever watchful, Tank stood beside Naiya, his hand in his cut, his eyes darting from side to side as he searched for danger.

“Darlin’.” Holt leaned over to kiss her and she pulled away. He supposed he deserved that, but right now he wasn’t in a mood to play games. His brothers had taken Michael out back to await Holt’s justice and after Holt had let loose his anger, he wanted nothing more than to hold his woman in his arms. Preferably, naked and in his bed. But first he’d have to gain her forgiveness.

Naiya glared, her eyes dropping to his blood-smeared hand. “Is that Maurice’s blood? Ally said you beat him up.”

He pushed her hair back behind her ear, trailing his fingers down her neck. God, she was beautiful. Sexy. Fiery. And his. What the hell had he been thinking walking away and leaving her unprotected? “Nah. That’s Michael’s blood. I had to teach him a lesson. He made the mistake of messing with a Sinner’s woman in a Sinner bar in the Sinners’ town.”

Naiya stared at him aghast. “You beat him up, too?”

“Anyone who hurts you. Anyone who touches you. Anyone who makes scared. Anyone who makes you cry. I’ll rip out their hearts, break their bones, and drown in their fucking blood to keep you safe.”

“That’s kind of romantic in a terrifying, morbid, ruthless, outlaw-biker kinda way,” Ally said. “Doug just says ‘love ya, babe’ or ‘keep safe.’”

“It’s only romantic if the guy is actually around to do it,” Naiya said, slapping Holt’s hand away. “But if he drops you off at a hotel in a strange town and leaves you to fend for yourself while he drives off to get himself killed, it loses its effect.”

“You looked after yourself pretty good.” Holt pulled his chair closer, rested his hand on her knee. “Smart move coming here when you saw Michael sniffing around.”

Naiya pushed at his hand, but he held her fast, stroking his thumb along the inside of her thigh.

“What was I supposed to do?” Her voice rose in pitch. “Go to the police? I may have been living a civilian life, but I spent six years with the Black Jacks. I know the kind of power the clubs have. I know how things work. And I know I’ll be happy when I leave town and get away from all things MC.”

“You also know you gotta listen to your man. And your man wants you to stay with the Sinners until I’ve dealt with Viper.” Holt tilted her head back with one finger under her chin, then leaned in and kissed her, his free hand ready to grab her wrist if she tried to slap him.

Which she did, because his Naiya had a spine of steel.

“Who says you’re my man?”

“I do.” He met her gaze, watched her eyes darken to brown.

“It sure didn’t feel like you were my man when you left.” She pulled away, and Holt gritted his teeth. Didn’t she understand that he had come back for her? That for now he had put aside his quest for revenge to keep her safe?

“When I put you in the position of having to pull that weapon, I realized I’d brought you back into a world you don’t want to be in. I didn’t want to waste any time getting you out.” He traced the bow of her mouth, pleased when her lips parted at his touch. She couldn’t be that angry. After all, she was still here, and she had come to the brothers to ask them to warn him.

“I can take myself out.” She drew his hand away. “I’ve got interviews set up in different states . . .” Her voice trailed off when Holt frowned. How could he protect her if she left? Viper would send men to chase her wherever he went. Sweat trickled down his back. This reunion wasn’t going exactly as expected.

“You don’t leave,” he blurted out. “You don’t go.”

She studied him for a long moment, and then she stroked a light finger over his jaw, her voice soft, as if they were alone and not in the bar with the Sinners watching them and Tank and Ally sitting at their table. Like she’d forgiven him for leaving her. “You’re lucky I understand your bossy, evil biker ways.”

Yes! Forgiven. Holt heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m gonna take you back to the clubhouse and show you just how evil I can be.” He covered her hand with his, and pressed his lips to her fingertips. Her sharp intake of breath made him instantly hard. And suddenly it all didn’t matter. Viper. Michael. His status in the club. All he wanted was this woman who took away the pain and the darkness; who made him feel whole again.

Robin’s Review

Dax Anderson and Giselle Andrews. Who are they to each other? What is their connection? Those are the questions that I found myself asking as I was reading Epic Lies. Epic Lies is a new adult/contemporary romance, and the most recent release from author Trudy Stiles. It’s also the second novel of the Epic Fail series – a series of novels which focus on each member of the rock band Epic Fail. This time around, Stiles writes about drummer Dax Anderson.

Epic Lies is a romance novel about two characters who have been deeply hurt by lies in their past. Lies told by their loved ones. Lies from the very people who they thought they could trust. Whether outright lies or lies by omission, the result is the same. It becomes very hard to trust and give love freely. This lack of trust becomes a major obstacle to future relationships for Dax and Giselle. Can they possibly learn to trust each other? Will they open their hearts to love once again?

Stiles has a very interesting style of writing in Epic Lies. By chapter, she alternates Dax and Giselle’s first person points of view, while also alternating between writing chapters in the past and present. Fate is a huge theme in Epic Lies. Throughout this story, I noticed coincidences, possible connections between Dax and Giselle which kept me guessing and gave Epic Lies the feel of a mystery. By using this style of writing, Stiles reveals events in their pasts – what shaped Dax and Giselle as individuals – while also allowing readers the pleasure of enjoying their budding romance in the present.

Since the beginning of her writing career, I’ve read each novel written by Trudy Stiles. Each story is completely unique, and she doesn’t shy away from difficult topics. In Epic Lies this topic is rape. I’m sharing this with readers because I know rape can be an emotional trigger. There are parts of this story that were painfully hard for me to read, but I also found a large measure of joy, happiness and satisfaction from reading Epic Lies. Epic Lies is dramatic, and I can promise it will take you on a non-stop roller coaster ride of emotions!

Although the Epic Fail series is a spinoff of Stiles’ Forever Family series, Epic Lies can be read as a standalone novel. It’s also not necessary to read Epic Sins, the first novel in the Epic Fail series, prior to reading Epic Lies. If you have never read a novel by Trudy Stiles, I highly recommend that you give one of her two standalone novels – Epic Sins or Epic Lies – a try! Dax and Giselle’s story was a pleasure to read, and I’m excited to give this novel a 4.5 star rating!

Synopsis

Emil isn’t your usual adoring leading man.
He’s the monster anti-hero.
Aishe isn’t your classic protagonist.
She’s the temptress anti-heroine.
This isn’t your typical romance.
It’s a horror anti-love story.

This isn’t the traditional novel where the sweet, innocent girl finds her prince charming and they live happily-ever-after. If that’s what you’re looking for, look somewhere else.

Because in this story, no one gets out unscathed.

Aishe is running. Running from the burn of a love she knows will consume her.
Running from a soul mate she’s never even met.
If only she hadn’t been hired as a merch girl for the hottest indie band on earth.
If only she’d never laid eyes on its front man, Emil—intense, sexy, and so unlike the men of her culture.
If only she hadn’t fallen onto his lips, then into his bed.
If only her flame hadn’t exploded into a full-on forest fire.
If only Emil’s heart didn’t belong to someone else.

***

Emil is running. Running from a broken heart.
Running from who he was with her.
If only Zoe hadn’t left.
If only Aishe hadn’t been right there.
If only she hadn’t been so damn gorgeous—insistent—different.
If only he could control himself around her.
If. Only.

Author Bio:

Between studies, teaching, and advising, Sunniva has spent her entire adult life in a college environment. Most of her novels are new adult romance geared toward smart, passionate readers with a love for eclectic language and engaging their brain as well as their heart while reading.

Born in the Land of the Midnight Sun, the author spent her early twenties making the world her playground. Southern Europe: Spain, Italy, Greece–Argentina: Buenos Aires, in particular. The United States finally kept her interest, and after half a decade in Los Angeles, she now lounges in the beautiful city of Savannah.

Sometimes, Sunniva writes with a paranormal twist (Shattering Halos, Stargazer, and Cat Love). At other times, it’s contemporary (Pandora Wild Child, Leon’s Way, Adrenaline Crush, Walking Heartbreak, and Dodging Trains, coming in late March 2016).

This author is the happiest when her characters let their emotions run off with them, shaping her stories in ways she never foresaw. She loves bad-boys and good-boys run amok, and like in real life, her goal is to keep the reader on her toes until the end of each story.

Up In Flames

Rosemary Beach Series – Book 13

By Abbi Glines

Buy: Amazon / B & N / ITunes / Kobo

aa08d-goodreads

Synopsis:

#1 New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines returns to Rosemary Beach one last time in this highly-anticipated finale.

Spoiled. Selfish. Rich girl. Villain. Slut.

As the Prada-clad bad girl of Rosemary Beach, Nan Dillon has been called every vile name under the hot summer sun. Some of her reputation is deserved—she’s never had to worry about anything but maintaining her perfect figure and splitting Daddy’s private jet with her brother, Rush.

But Nan is far from happy. Rush has another kid on the way and doesn’t have time to catch up with his sister. Grant, the last guy she truly cared about, chose to be with her half-sister, Harlow, instead of her. And Harlow, who has never gotten over the way Nan treated her when she first moved to town, remains distant.

So when Major asks her out, she jumps at the chance to date the gorgeous charmer. Though she doesn’t know much about the sweet-talking Texan, and though it’s clear he doesn’t want to be exclusive, dating him beats hanging out with vapid socialites or watching Netflix alone at home.

For a while, Nan deals with Major’s playboy ways, but after he burns her one too many times, she takes off for an impromptu wild weekend in Vegas. There, she meets Gannon, a darkly seductive and oh-so-dangerous businessman who knows exactly how to handle her.

With Major asking for a second chance and Gannon haunting her dreams, Nan has to decide who to give her heart to. But what she doesn’t realize is that these players are involved in a much bigger game—and they’re already two moves ahead of her.

Michel’s Review

Am I still a NAN HATER…

The Rosemary Beach Series by Abbi Glines has been one of my favorite series since the first book released in January 2014.  I have devoured each book in this series.  I have stood in long lines at author events to get my paperback copies signed.  Each of the couples and the crew from Rosemary Beach have captivated me… except for Nan.  She is the J.R. Ewing or Alexis Carrington of Rosemary Beach.  She has been the consistent villian throughout the series.  There is nothing likable about her character at all.  So why would readers want her to have a book of her own?  I would say because they are just waiting for the train to hit Nan head on.

When a writer creates a character like Nan, it’s almost impossible to convince the readers that she deserves a happily ever after.  Towards the later part of the series Nan’s character starts to evolve.  Readers are beginning to see the multiple layers that make Nan the person she is.  Is it possible for Nan to change the core person she is?  That’s where the author has her greatest challenge.  First of all to change her into a good lovable being would be more or less slapping the readers in the face saying they are gullible and clueless.  It would make everything readers conceived into a lie.  Thank goodness Abbi Glines had the insight not to insult her readers but at the same time have the balls to give Nan a story that readers could embrace.

Nan didn’t change, she evolved into something tolerable.  Readers got an in depth look at what made Nan tick.  They got a first hand look into her insecurities, hateful reactions, and selfish choices.  They also got to see her real issues and where they began.  The girl was basically abandoned the moment she came into the world.  The ones that were supposed to love and protect her blatantly ignored her existence and used money as a way to cover up their abandonment.  The only person that really ever loved Nan was her brother Rush.  It’s no wonder she desperately tried to control and hang onto him.  He was the only good thing in her life she ever had.  Her bitterness and resentments were a coat of armor that she would never be able to shed because the little girl buried deep inside must never surface.  She became strong because of that armor.  She survived the only way she knew how.  After many years of bitterness and hate, she’s growing weary.  The people in her world are changing for the better, moving on with their lives and she is stuck in the hateful world she created.  She wants what they have but is clueless how to obtain it.  Each time she thinks she’s close to obtaining it’s always disappointment that follows.

Nan and Major have had a thing going on but it’s not really a relationship.  They have formed an odd friendship.  Each time Nan thinks that Major is coming around he only ends up disappointing her.  He discards her like everyone else in her life has.  When she’s finally had enough, she does what she does best…moves on to the next mindless party.  Heading to Vegas to lick her wounds leads her to the next chapter in her life.  She meets a mysterious, sexy, dangerous man.  He has a way of making her feel like she is the only woman in the world.  He can control her outbursts, appreciate her worldliness, and make her body sing.  He also has secrets that could destroy her and when he does, her life in Rosemary Beach doesn’t look so bad.  Too bad her heart doesn’t know it.

By this time Major has realized the errs of his ways.  He regrets his mistakes with Nan and wants another chance to prove himself to her.  He will get his chance but it won’t be the ending he was expecting.

The rest of the story will take the reader by surprise!  Rosemary Beach is ending Up In Flames.

Am I still a NAN HATER? I still don’t like her but I do understand her and don’t begrudge her a happily ever after.

In New York City, an underground society of supernatural beings exists, hidden among everyday humans. They don’t know of our activities or any of our secrets.

The districts of the Works are made up of vampires, wolves, shifters, witches, and I’m in the fifth and arguably most important district, the Patchwork. My father is the leader of our group, and he oversees all of the other factions.

As his only daughter, that makes me the princess of it all. Cool, right? Actually…no. Sure, I live in a mansion and money isn’t an object, but that doesn’t matter because I can’t leave. I have a guard who follows me around 24/7. My father and three older brothers treat me like I’m a fragile piece of glass, never allowed to take an independent step or make any decisions on my own.

It’s beyond frustrating—especially since my father essentially runs my life. He says what I do, when I do it, how I do it, and all that jazz. He tests his formulas and new techniques on me. I’m a walking science experiment.

I hate it.

I hate my life here.

But then he comes along: Killian.

He’s just some vampire…or so I thought.

But you’ll have to read my story to find out what I mean. To know my secrets. Until then, though, allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Rebecca von Stein.

And I’m a descendant of Dr. Frankenstein.

Welcome to the Works.

Michel’s Review

Are you afraid of monsters?  Are you afraid of things that go bump in the night?  You should be,  there’s a secret underground society of supernatural beings ready to send chills down your spine.

In today’s modern society monsters are still a very real thing.  The difference is that they try to stick within their complex underground world known as the Works.  Within the Works, there are the vampires, the witches, the shifters, the wolves, and the Patchworks. Inter marriage between the factions is forbidden. Arranged marriages are the norm.  Rebellion is death…even if you are immortal.

 The Patchworks are decedents of Dr. Frankenstein, and the most powerful district within the Works.  They are immortals and very powerful because they possess the secret formula for immortality as well as healing formulas/ solutions which could enhance longevity among the non immortals in the Works.  Each faction is vying for the power the Stein family has over the Works.  The shifters want immortality and are willing to do anything to get it, including kidnapping  Rebecca von Stein.  Alliances are being formed and the Works is in an uproar.

The Von Stein family is on high alert.  Rebecca von Stein is the only female in the family and highly valued.  They will do anything to protect her, including imprisoning her within her family home.  Rebecca has a secret that the Von Stein family wants to keep hidden.  They will go to any lengths including murdering innocents, imprisoning members of the Works, and arranging marriages.  Their ruthlessness to protect Rebecca is appalling.  Rebecca is trying to survive her own home in order to break free and become the being she was truly meant to be.  Her family destroyed her love.  Her family is destroying every part of her life.  Her father is the worst monster of them all. He’s breaking her piece by piece… Run Rebecca Run!

T. Aleo wrote a truly authentic and original paranormal that left me reeling.  The complex world of the Works was intriguing, frightening, and interesting.  The characters were strong and dynamic in their own individual ways.  I am looking forward to more from this new unique paranormal series.

New Release + 5 Star Review: Stripped Bare by Emma Hart

sbcover

What do you get when you mix a bachelorette party, the queen of dating disasters, and a stripper so hot he was forged from the fires of hell? Screwed. You get screwed….

Cocky. Commanding. Powerful. Relentless.

Those four words all summed up West Rykman perfectly.

So did filthy, dirty, sexy, and addictive.

He was supposed to be my one night stand…not my new marketing client.

He was definitely not supposed to be back inside my pants, not that anybody told him that.

I knew one thing: What West Rykman wanted, West Rykman got.

And he wanted me.

What happens in Vegas… might just make you stay.

HARPERQUOTE

ADRIANAQUOTE

Excerpt

“You should have come and got me when that prick made you uncomfortable.”

I turned to face him. “Are you seriously telling me off?”

We paused as the traffic stopped, and he cut his gaze to me. “I couldn’t see you. I told you it wasn’t safe for you to go alone.”

I rolled my eyes. “He was only there for two minutes. I would have stabbed him with my stiletto before he could do anything.”

“And I believe you, but it doesn’t change the fact that he made you uncomfortable.”

We turned a corner.

“I don’t want anything to happen to you just because you’re determined to do market research.”

“Nothing happened to me.”

“Mia, it doesn’t change the fact that it couldn’t. He only left because I showed up. I watched the entire fucking thing.”

“And you only came in at the end? Gee, thanks, West. Knight in fucking shining armor right there, aren’t you?” I ran my fingers through my hair and looked away. The light curls were still in place, although they were more of a lazy wave, and I stared at my reflection in the side mirror. “We should probably not do this again.”

“On the contrary, I was having fun until the end. I don’t have fun much.”

“Looking out for me was fun? Yeah, okay.”

“I told you,” he said, pulling up outside my apartment block, which was really more of a converted three-story house. “I don’t want anything to happen to you. I’d feel bad.”

“Well, thanks. I’m gonna look over these notes in the morning and I’ll e-mail you. Okay?” I paused with my hand on the door and glanced back at him.

He was out of the fucking car.

Why was he out of the fucking car?

“Why are you out of the car?”

He smirked. Damn that smirk. “I’m taking you up.”

“Like hell you are.” I slammed the door and walked around the sleek Audi to stand right in front of him. I looked up at him and caught his gaze. “I can make it in and out of an elevator.”

“I’m sure you can. But I’m still taking you up.”

“No. You’re not!”

“All right, then.” He grabbed my waist and lifted me.

A shriek escaped between my lips as he swung me upward and over his shoulder. I scrambled to keep hold of my purse, but he ignored me as he carried me inside and pushed the elevator button.

“West! Put me down right now!”

He ignored me again and tightened his grip around my thighs when I tried to wriggle down. His strength was crazy. I was stuck there.

“Put me down! Now!”

He shook his head, this time acknowledging my words. But that was it. A fucking head shake.

“This is hardly professional!” I yelled, my voice echoing off walls of the metal box that was the elevator. I couldn’t believe he’d slung me over his shoulder like some kind of caveman.

Yo, Wilma, Betty? Fred and Barney escaped. I found one of them.

“West Rykman, I swear to a god I don’t believe in that, if you don’t put me down right this goddamn second, I’m going to tear your balls off with my bare hands and shove them up your ass!”

The elevators doors opened, and he took the few steps toward my door before finally, slowly, lowering me back down to the ground.

“Ugh!” As soon as my feet hit the floor, I stepped back and glared at him. “How dare you manhandle me?”

He fixed his bright, Caribbean-blue eyes on mine and curved his lips. “I told you I was taking you upstairs. I didn’t tell you I was walking you up.”

“You’re an animal.”

“You weren’t coming up alone. I was raised a gentleman.”

That made me stop rummaging for my keys and raise my eyebrows in disbelief. “You take off your clothes for a living, and the first time we met, you flexed your cock against my face.”

He grabbed my waist for a second time tonight and spun me against my door. I dropped my purse in my shock, but I couldn’t reach for it because he’d cupped my chin and forced me to look at him.

“And the second time we met,” he said in a low voice, “you flexed my cock against the back of your throat. What point are you trying to make, angel?”

“That you’re no more a gentleman than I am a lady,” I shot back. “Now, let me go so I can go inside and consider how we continue this professional relationship.”

West searched my eyes for a long moment before dropping his hand. He took half a step back, and I went to reach for my purse, but he changed his mind.

He smoothly spun back to me, and no sooner had I met the flash of his blue eyes than he had his mouth on mine. I let out a quiet moan when he swept his tongue across the seam of my lips and wrapped one arm around my waist. He pulled our bodies together, my shoulders pressing into the door, and kissed me deeply.

My head swam. I couldn’t make head or tails of this, and although it was wrong, so wrong, I couldn’t stop.

The kiss was hot—oh god, so hot—and my whole body felt like it was on fire as I wound my fingers in the collar of his shirt and held him closer to me. His fingers twitched against my back as one of his hands slid down and cupped my ass. He squeezed, pulling my hips to his. His erection was obvious, pushing into me, and I whimpered into his mouth.

God, I wanted him.

He pulled away from me as abruptly as he’d kissed me, but he didn’t move. His mouth eased its way across my jaw to my ear, and his hot breath skittered across my skin when he paused there.

“I might call you angel, but I have a feeling you’re going to be my own personal sin, Mia O’Halloran.”

He kissed the tender spot just beneath my ear, making me shiver, and released me. I struggled to control my breathing as I watched him walk away toward the stairwell. He paused at the top, and I sank my teeth into my bottom lip.

He turned.

Dropped his gaze to my mouth.

Met my eyes.

Disappeared.

I sank back against my door. I could still feel his touch. His taste lingered on my lips, and although it wasn’t anything incredibly specific, he was there, teasing me without being near me. I brushed hair from my face, picked my purse up, and dug for my key. I found it and let myself into the dark apartment.

I locked the door behind me and walked to my bed. I’d barely undressed and retrieved my phone with its alarm before I buried myself beneath the sheets.

Shit.

Tracey’s Review

***5+ Oh, My, Goodness, I’m In Love Stars***

Ohmygosh, ohmygosh, ohmygosh, Emma Hart, you’re killing me.

I have only fairly recently come to know Emma Hart’s books, but, I am telling you, she is freaking awesome. There is not one book of hers that I have not devoured within hours of picking it up. She writes dialogue like nobody’s business, storylines that pull you in from word 1, and characters that you a) want to spend time with yourself, and b) are sexy, funny, snarky, and, oh, did I say sexy?

STRIPPED BARE, Emma’s most recent book, had me from the first scene. I’m all about a good ‘girlfriends hanging out together and shaking things up’ scenario, and this book started out with a bang. Mia and her friends are funny, no-holds-barred, tell it like it is, ladies. They’ve known each other forever, and, so, to celebrate their friend Allie’s upcoming nuptials, have gone to, where else, Vegas, to, what else, a male strip club. But not just any male strip club. Rock Solid boasts some of the hottest dancers around, and when the tables are turned and Mia gets a taste of her own medicine, she gets to see just how hot up close and personal.

West Rykman. Oh.My.Gosh. Let me just tell you, if this man was shaking his moneymaker at me, all bets would be off. And Mia obviously feels the same way, because, yeah. Suffice to say that much action ensues, and it is blisteringly hot. And, while they say that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, maybe not so much…

I cannot really express how much I loved STRIPPED BARE. It is a dirty sexy romp of a story, but there is much more to it. There are many layers to both Mia and West, and it is a pure delight to watch them discover together that they might just have to take a risk and go all in to get to where they are meant to be. And, the cast of characters helping them along, from Mia’s girls, to her mom (oh, my gosh, her mom!), to Beck (I’m a little bit in love with Beckett Cruz, y’all), all of them help make this book all that it is.

If you haven’t guessed yet, I LOVE this book. STRIPPED BARE is one of my favorite reads this year, and that’s saying something. I cannot recommend it any more highly, and happily give it 5+ stars. Don’t just add this one to your TBR, get out there and read this book now. Do it. You can thank me later.

********OUT NOW********

 

Buy: Amazon 

Synopsis
Darren Bridge is living a bachelor’s dream. When he’s not running into burning buildings with his crew, he’s training the flavor of the week at his brother’s gym. Few women have ever been off limits…until Vanessa. Smart, beautiful, and legs for days, she’s unlike anyone he’s ever met. Too bad he’s sworn to leave her alone.
Overworked with no end in sight, Vanessa Hawkins hasn’t had a vacation in nearly two years. When Cameron and Maya’s destination wedding takes her out of the office for a much-needed break, she finds herself struggling to resist her attraction to the best man. Darren is dangerously good-looking with enough charm to make any hot-blooded woman want to drop her panties and enjoy the ride, no matter how long it lasts.
When they return to the city, Darren realizes the single life has lost its glimmer. But with everything else on her plate, Vanessa doesn’t have room in her life for a man, let alone a player. Can Darren find his way into her heart and convince her that he’s worth the risk?
**********************
The Bridge Series follows Cameron, Darren, and Olivia Bridge, three siblings living in New York City. Desperate to break away from the crushing expectations of their wealthy and privileged and equally broken family, they carve out a new path together. But can they find real love along the way?
Each book follows a different sibling’s journey and can be read as a standalone.

Tracey’s Review

Phew, is it hot in here, or what?! Excuse me while I fan myself, because, oh, my goodness, this book is pretty darned steamy.

As a fan of the Hacker series by author Meredith Wild, I was interested to see what the Bridge series would be like. Although INTO THE FIRE is the second book of the three, it is the first that I have read. Let me tell you two things about this newer set of books that I have discovered so far: 1) Although the characters carry over, I didn’t feel like I had to have read the first book, ON MY KNEES, to follow the storyline in INTO THE FIRE, and 2) This book is just as hot, just as tightly written, as the other books that I’ve read and enjoyed by Meredith.

Darren Bridge is the player of the three Bridge siblings. He’s a hardworking firefighter, but, when it’s playtime, he’s all in. I don’t think that Darren has met many women that he doesn’t like, and he’s sampled his fair share. But when Vanessa Hawkins comes comes onto the scene, it’s different. Longing to leave her smalltown past behind, Vanessa is trying to make her way in the big city, working crazy hours at a thankless job for a domineering boss. There’s just something about Vanessa that calls to Darren, and it isn’t long before things are getting, um, hot and heavy between them.

I have to admit that I am not a huge fan of the insta-love scenario, but, although things move pretty quickly between Darren and Vanessa, the fact that they’ve known each other before the start of this story makes it more believable for me. The chemistry between these two is off-the-charts hot, and Darren is absolutely persuasive. How’s a girl to say no?

I also enjoyed the backstory involving Vanessa and her jerkwad of a boss. I mean, seriously, David Reilly is one heck of a guy, and not in a good way. Meredith had me completely engrossed in the goings-on involving him and his shenanigans, adding a nice twist to the whole story. Capping the book off with the sweet epilogue involving Cam and Maya ended the book in just the right way, and brought everything full circle.

I really enjoyed INTO THE FIRE, and look forward to reading more about Olivia Bridge, the coolly mysterious Bridge sibling, in OVER THE EDGE. If you’re a fan of Meredith’s books, but haven’t picked up this series yet, do it. You will not be sorry.

MR. ROMANTIC SNEAK PEEK:

“What do you think so far? Do I live up to the hype?”

“Not really.”

“No?” He chuckles as we walk past the pool. “Why not?”

The whole thing becomes surreal for me in that moment. The emptiness of the resort. The heat and the sun. I am two thousand miles from home and I’m clutching Mr. Romantic’s elbow like we are lovers taking an evening stroll.

“You’re a little bit quiet so far.”

“Is that right?”

“Your sister is the bigger personality. I’m surprised she wasn’t accused of something inappropriate in college. I think she has it in her.”

Nolan laughs. “That’s kind of true. She’s a handful to most, but she’s been good to me. She’s very protective.”

“She called you dangerous.”

“What?” He stops walking and looks down at me. “When?”

“Today. She told me to stay away from you. Didn’t you know that?”

“What exactly did she tell you?” His mood has changed. Not a lot, but there’s an edge to his words.

“She said something like…” I struggle to remember her exact words, but can’t. I shouldn’t have said anything. He’ll probably confront her and use me as an example.

“Like?” Nolan pushes.

“You’re not romantic. Something like that. They called you Mr. Romantic when all that stuff happened because it was a joke.”

“And the dangerous part?” His words are low and when I look up at him, the easygoing expression has changed into something else.

“I don’t know why she said it. She was telling me to stay away from you all day. And I was angry that she was so dismissive of me. She said I was here by mistake. So I told her I was going to do my best to get the job anyway. And while I agree those men you hired are far more qualified, it was not fair of her to dismiss me so quickly. I’m not as innocent and inexperienced as I look, Mr. Delaney. I have ideas and I’m smart. Hiring everyone in the applicant pool but me was about the most humiliating thing I’ve ever experienced.”

Nolan continues our walk, silent for a few seconds. “You’re lucky.”

“I am?” I ask, a small laugh escaping. “How so?”

“You’re lucky that you’ve never been humiliated the way I have.”

Oh, shit. Way to go, Ivy.

“Do you think I’m dangerous?” Nolan asks, staring down at me in that way he does.

It makes me uneasy. “Maybe.”

“You’re willing to take that chance?”

“Maybe.”

“Well, good,” Nolan says. “Let’s have a nice dinner and I’ll tell you why I sent Claudette away and kept you here against her wishes.”

He did what?

My heart starts to beat faster. Why would he do that? Maybe Claudette was right to warn me? There’s hardly anyone here at the resort. Especially now that all the construction people have left for the day. The main pool is empty when we pass, and even the desk clerks are missing when we enter the lobby.

The dining room has two couples eating dinner and Nolan greets them by name as he leads me to the rear part of the restaurant. Back into a dimly lit room with a single table, white linen tablecloth flowing over the sides. Candle glowing in the center. Set for two.

“This is… unexpected.” My mind is filled with possibilities. And even though I came here with the intention of getting his full attention, possibly losing my virginity to him—and even though I’ve talked myself into feeling ready to take on a man like him, both professionally and personally—I am not excited. I am suddenly scared.

There’s not enough people. There’s not enough noise. There’s not enough of anything to make me forget just who I’m having dinner with.

Mr. Romantic. A man accused of raping a woman ten years ago. A man who was not prosecuted for that crime because the woman died before she could testify. A man who might be guilty.

Nolan pulls out a chair and waits for me to sit, sliding it in perfectly the way a gentleman does, before taking his seat across from me. “I like the unexpected, Miss Rockwell. Get used to it.”

I am in way over my head.

Michel’s Review

Mr. Romantic is the second book in the Mister series by J. A. Huss. The Mister series is a combination of erotic romance and romantic suspense/thriller.  The Misters are tightly connected together from an incident in the past that forever changed their lives and tied them together forever.  They were not really friends until this incident happened.  They were fraternity brothers living in the same house. When they were arrested, their lives were forever bound.  They were sworn to secrecy and never knew what each other’s involvement was.  Ten years later they are still trying to put the past behind them.  The past seems to be catching up and tormenting their lives once again. Each book in the series features a different Mister and reveals their involvement in the incident.  It also begins to intertwine the past with the present.  Mr. Perfect created a flawless perfect life that looked perfect on the surface but underneath was anything but perfect.  Now it’s time for Mr. Romantic’s story.

The first thing I am going to say is that readers need to remember this is purely fiction. Nothing about this book is real.  The explicit sexual fantasies are just that… a fantasy.  It may be very hard for some readers to handle.  I struggled with it myself but understood why it was included in this story.  It’s not something I enjoyed reading and in no way was turned on by it.  I did not find it romantic, thrilling, or normal.  I reacted just the opposite.  I was pretty turned off, appalled, and creeped out.  So I am going to say that if rape scenes are a hard limit… don’t read this book.

The overall story itself was very good.  Mr. Romantic is anything but romantic.  Yes, Nolan Delaney is a ladies man and a player.  He’s known for his bedroom antics but is basically a pretty good guy.  He has trust issues with good reason.  He has family issues that will never be resolved because of the incident ten years earlier.  He was cut off from the family money and made his fortune on his own.  He is now about to open a 5 Star Resort in the desert.  He needs to hire business experts to make his resort a success.  His head hunter has sent three candidates.  One of those candidates was last minute and really not qualified for the job.  Although she is not qualified, her ideas and determination has caught his attention.  He wants to hire her but he’s holding back because he wants to take her to his bed.  He’s having all kinds of fantasies about her.  He’ll sleep with her first and either send her on her way or hire her after he’s finished with her.

Mr. Romantic is in for a big surprise.  He may change his tune and become the romantic man he was meant to be.  First he has to prove to himself he is not the monster he was made out to be.  He needs closure.

J. A. Huss once again masterfully wove a story of erotic intrigue and mystery.  The past and present are colliding.  Each book will unravel more of the back story that will make the prevalent danger in the present all the more intriguing.

New Release + 5 Star Review: Yours by Jasinda Wilder

51a1bGU43WL

Yours

By Jasinda Wilder

Buy: Amazon 

Release Date: June 20,2016

Synopsis

When my husband Oliver died, my life ended. My purpose, my passion, my everything bled out with him on the side of the Pacific Coast Highway.

Ollie was an organ donor. His eyes, his brain, his lungs, his heart…parts of my Ollie went out and saved lives.

Then his heart, beating in another man’s chest, found its way back to me, and I found myself faced with an impossible choice: hold on to the pain and beauty of the past and the memory of the man I loved, or reach for a bold new future, knowing each heartbeat will be a reminder of all I’ve lost.

* * *

I wasn’t supposed to live past thirty.

My grandfather died at forty-five. Heart failure.

My father died at thirty-eight. Heart failure.

The doctors told me my whole life that I wouldn’t see my thirty-first birthday. My heart was going to give out. It was just a matter of time: a rare blood type and an unusually large heart meant essentially zero chance of a transplant.

I proved them all wrong…by dying on my thirty-first birthday.

And then I woke up, alive, with another man’s heart inside my chest, and his widow on my conscience.

I spent my whole life preparing for death, and now I have to learn how to live. Only, as I soon discovered, living is the easy part.

Loving, and allowing myself to be loved…well, that’s a whole lot harder.
This is a standalone second chance romance like you’ve never read before.

5Star

Michel’s Review

We’ve all seen movies and read books where the heart plant patient finds the donor’s loved one and realizes their new heart still belongs to them.  These gut wrenching stories never fail to have me in tears and emotionally wrapped up in the characters lives.  It’s the same story told by different storytellers that always touches a piece of my heart.  Jasinda Wilder put her own spin on the story.  She gave here characters more than a second chance at life, love, and happiness.  She made them earn their happiness.  She took them both on a journey long after their hearts began beating once again. It wasn’t the physical rhythms that enabled their hearts but rather the metaphysical beats that defined their souls.  This book was not an instal-love or my heart only belongs to you sort of story. It’s a story of two people brought together because of one heart and staying together because of two hearts.  It’s the true gift of giving your heart and soul to another and trusting them to cherish it.

Lachlan Montgomery had only one goal in life.  His goal was to make it to his thirty first birthday.  He lived his life waiting to die.  Rather than making the most of his short life, a life that would leave his legacy behind, he chose to live life on the edge, flirting with death daily.  He selfishly abused each moment he was gifted.  He carelessly philandered his precious moments with booze, women, and adrenaline highs.  Why not… he was never meant to live after thirty.  He was supposed to die.  He did die.  A miracle happened that changed everything he’s ever known, hoped for, or desired.  Now he’s hopelessly lost.  He doesn’t know who Lock Montgomery is or who he should be.  His new life leads him on a journey to find out about the heart that beats within his chest.  He never imagined that journey would lead him to finding his true heart, the one that was always hidden by the defective one that beat in his chest.

Niall James died the same day her husband died in the horrible car accident.  Her body was still alive but her soul was dead.  She’s existing but not living until she meets Lock Montgomery.  Something about the man calls to the soul she thought died.  When she’s finally coming to life she finds out Lock’s horrible secret.  He has her husband’s heart.  The heart that chose her.  Can she accept Lock for the man he is or is she just trying to hang on to her dead husband?

Lock’s secret is the easy part for both of them.  Learning to live is the most difficult journey they both will take.  It will take soul searching, trials and tribulations, self truths, and sheer determination to find what really makes their hearts tick.

Jasinda Wilder added so many layers to this story.  She took her characters on a journey of self discovery.  She gave them each their own crosses to bear and their own moments of truth.  What made this story stand out besides the romantic side was the journey they traveled.  They had to earn their gift of living full, complete lives.

Read Yours by Jasinda Wilder!
