Jonquils for Jax, The Rousseaus #1 by Katy Regnery

Date of Publication: August 5, 2016

Did you fall in love with The English Brothers? Were you hot for the Winslows? Katy Regnery’s New York Times bestselling Blueberry Lane series continues with The Rousseau siblings in Summer 2016!

Jacqueline “Jax” Rousseau is vivacious, rich, smart and beautiful…but that doesn’t mean she’s lucky in love: she’s dated doctors, lawyers, actors and politicians who’ve all managed to end up disappointing her. In fact, she’s on a self-imposed hiatus from love when she has an unpleasant run-in with her neighbor’s gorgeous new landscaper, Gardener Thibodeaux. Jax is not accustomed to gruff, ill-mannered men that can’t be charmed, but when he saves her skin, she realizes that something about Gard intrigues her…and if she can find her way through the armor that surrounds his heart, she might finally find a love that won’t let her down.

Michel’s Review
JonquilsforJaxTeaser3
It’s time to take another trip down Blueberry Lane.  This time the destination is the Rousseau estate.  Readers have met some of the Rousseau siblings in the previous books of the series featuring the English siblings, the Winslow siblings, and the Story sisters.  These dynamic wealthy families are entwined with each others lives.  They have grown up together and are making their own marks on the world.
***
Jacquelyn Rousseau has returned home to Blueberry Lane after spending the last few years in California.  With an Oscar under her belt, she’s learned that being a famous filmmaker is not all it was cracked up to be.  Once the  paparazzi discovered her family connections, it made her life even worse.  She’s returned home to Philadelphia to lick her wounds and try to figure out her next step in life.  She has also returned home for her older brother’s wedding.
***
Although she has some very close friends in the wealthy world she came from, she also has some acquaintances she’d rather forget.  Escaping one of those handsy acquaintances at her brother’s wedding leads her to meeting the English family’s new gardener.  This new gardener comes to rescue and sends her world into a tailspin.
***
Gardener Thibodeaux is not your ordinary gardener.  His past is quite unique.  He’s a retired police detective with roots from Louisiana.  He’s legally blind and sexy as sin. He’s still learning to navigate in his sightless world when he meets the duchess, Jax Rousseau.
***
What starts as a tentative friendship leads to the perfect future for both Jax and Gard.  Their relationship is not going to be easy because something this good takes dedication and determination.  Their talents complement one another.  Their passion completes one another.
***
Once again Katy Regnery has written a delightful romance.  I loved the dialogue and sexy french phrases.  I love the world of Blueberry Lane.

About Katy Regnery

Katy Regnery, award-winning and Amazon bestselling author, started her writing career by enrolling in a short story class in January 2012. One year later, she signed her first contract for a winter romance entitled By Proxy.

Now a hybrid author who publishes both independently and traditionally, Katy claims authorship of the six-book Heart of Montana series, the six-book English Brothers series, and a Kindle Worlds novella entitled “Four Weddings and a Fiasco: The Wedding Date,” in addition to the standalone novels, Playing for Love at Deep Haven and Amazon bestseller, The Vixen and the Vet.

The Vixen and the Vet is included in the charity anthology Hometown Heroes: Hotter Ever After, and Katy’s novella “Frosted” appeared in the Jan ’15 anthology, Snowy Days Steamy Nights. Additionally, Katy’s short story, “The Long Way Home” appeared in the first RWA anthology (Feb ’15), Premiere.

Katy lives in the relative wilds of northern Fairfield County, Connecticut, where her writing room looks out at the woods, and her husband, two young children, and two dogs create just enough cheerful chaos to remind her that the very best love stories begin at home.

The First Taste by Jessica Hawkins

Series: Slip of the Tongue #2
Release Date: August 4th, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Romance

The First Taste Ebook Cover.jpg

 

Synopsis:

Andrew Beckwith has already devoted his life to one girl—and as far as he’s concerned, she’s all he needs. The rough-around-the-edges bad boy left his reckless ways behind six years ago when his daughter Bell was born. To the female population’s dismay, he’s unapologetically single. When Bell’s mother walked out on them years ago, he vowed never to let another woman close enough to hurt them again.

Amelia Van Ecken isn’t just another woman. She’s an independent, smart, and savvy businesswoman who doesn’t have time for sex, much less love. In the midst of a drawn-out, bitter divorce, all she wants is to bury herself in work. But when sharp-tongued Amelia and stubborn Andrew cross paths, sparks fly—and burn. Two things are obvious in an instant: they want each other, and they’re from different worlds. It’s the perfect formula for an off-the-charts one-night stand. After all, it’s not as if opposites ever attract.

The First Taste, a standalone spin-off of the Slip of the Tongue.

Tracey’s Review

Andrew Beckwith and his daughter Bell are doing just fine. Deserted by the mother of his child, Andrew has more than risen to the challenge of raising a healthy happy girl, a strong, honest, loving girl, secure in the knowledge that she is loved. Andrew, however, is another story. Guarding his heart from further heartbreak means that falling in love is not anywhere on his radar. Amelia Van Ecken has seen first-hand what giving up control of her heart means, and she wants no part of it. Happy to immerse herself in her business, avec, Amelia could not be less interested in romance.

If you follow my reviews, you know that I loved, loved, loved SLIP OF THE TONGUE by author Jessica Hawkins, a book that put me through the emotional wringer and left me thinking it about it long afterwards. One of the things that I particularly liked about that book was my introduction to Sadie’s brother, Andrew, and her niece, Bell. Just a glimpse of the two of them, and I was hooked, and I was excited to see that Andrew’s book would be coming our way soon.

So, here it is, that book. THE FIRST TASTE has all of the immediately engrossing qualities of all of Jessica’s books, that hook that grabs you and does not let you go until you’ve turned the last page. Here, again, are the characters that were introduced in SLIP OF THE TONGUE: Sadie, Nathan, Amelia, Andrew, and Bell. But, make no mistake, this book is a completely different story, and Andrew owns it.

Andrew is comfortable in his life. Secure in his love for Bell, and hers for him, he’s happy with the occasional hook-up, but is not looking for anything beyond the physical. When he meets Amelia, it couldn’t be more obvious that they are completely different from each other. But, when layers begin to be peeled away, and realities revealed, they realize that they are more alike than not, and that all of the things that they’ve been doing to protect themselves are keeping them from growing.

I inhaled this book. I loved everything about it, the characters, the story, the dialogue, just everything. Andrew had me from the first scene, from the way that he interacted with Bell to his snarky sexy encounter with Amelia. He takes no crap from anyone, and is fiercely protective of those that he loves. Strong in his vulnerability, he had my heart, and is, hands-down, one of my favorite book dads ever. And, Amelia, I think that there’s a little bit of Amelia is so many women. She’s lost because she trusted, and so she’s holding her heart so very closely. At first glance, she’s not the sort of woman to give up control to anyone, any man, but, as time goes on, and her relationship with Andrew evolves, her real self begins to shine through, and she’s like a completely different person.

Sadie and Nate have a continual presence in THE FIRST TASTE, and seeing them now must be like seeing how they were before they got to the point they were at in SLIP OF THE TONGUE. They are easy with each other, a couple secure in their love for each other, and there in every way to support Andrew, Bell, and, later, Amelia. And the rest of the supporting characters bring unconditional love and support, and made this read even better.

I knew that I would like this book, because the short glimpse that I’d had of Andrew and Bell in the first book had me invested in them. I didn’t know, though, that I would love this one even just a little bit more. Where SLIP OF THE TONGUE was viscerally intense, keeping me wound up throughout, THE FIRST TASTE has a bit more softness to it, somehow. There is still plenty of angst, of oh, no, she didn’t moments, but the personalities of Andrew, Bell, and Amelia, along with the softer and more relaxed Sadie and Nate, spoke to me in a different way. This is a definite 5-star read for me, and I highly recommend both books. They are absolutely on my list of top reads for this year, and they should be on your TBR.

Just What I Needed

The Need You Series – Book 2

By Lorelei James

Buy: Amazon / B & N / ITunes / Kobo

But when he discovers his sexy assailant has given him a fake name and number he suddenly finds himself in the mood for a little hot pursuit…

4 Star

Michel’s Review

The Lunds are back and burning up the pages.  Just What I Needed by Lorelei James is the second book in the Need You series.

The Need You series is not your typical billionaire romance series.  Lorelei James has put her own special blend to this insanely rich family.  This mega rich family is completely normal.  They are completely human, possessing their own quirks, strengths, and their own stamps of individuality that endear them to the readers.  The family dynamics is the one thing Lorelei James does extremely well while creating a love story that stands on it’s own merit.

Just What I Needed starts with a bang that draws the reader into Walker and Trinity’s story.  What proceeds is a slow, delicious  build up to a charming story.  Both Walker and Trinity have been emotionally wounded.  Learning to trust, open up, and love again isn’t the easiest thing for either of them.  Both are bent on forging their own ways in the world but their hearts are bent on merging their worlds together.  With a nudge from fate, a little family interference, Trinity and Walker on the right path to happily ever after.

Lorelei James wrote a fun, sexy book to add to the Need You series.  The personalities were larger than life and the steamy love scenes were blistering!

It Ends With Us

By Colleen Hoover

Buy: Amazon / B & N / ITunes / Kobo

Synopsis

Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life suddenly seems almost too good to be true.

Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place.

As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.

With this bold and deeply personal novel, Colleen Hoover delivers a heart-wrenching story that breaks exciting new ground for her as a writer. Combining a captivating romance with a cast of all-too-human characters, It Ends With Us is an unforgettable tale of love that comes at the ultimate price.

Robin’s Review

Spoiler Free Review

The newest novel from author Colleen Hoover is romantic and sweet. Heartbreaking and suspenseful. Hopeful and healing. Exhilarating and profound. Eye-opening. “Deeply personal” for the woman who wrote it. I heard whispers that this story would be different from anything Colleen Hoover had previously written. It’s true. It Ends With Us is far from her norm, and I strongly believe it may be her best work yet.

It Ends With Us is a story where past and present collide. It’s a refreshingly honest novel that stars a cast of three characters: Lily Bloom, Ryle Kincaid and Atlas Corrigan. Instead of giving a broad summary of what this story entails, I strongly encourage that you experience it without expectations of what you’ll be reading. Stay away from Facebook and other social media. Go in blind. Put your trust in Colleen Hoover and read It Ends With Us the way it is meant to be read. Like so many readers before me, I did, and I’m extremely grateful for my reading experience!

Colleen Hoover is a gifted author. She writes romance novels, but her stories are about so much more than love. Her novels are about characters who face difficult circumstances. It Ends With Us is a novel that has everything a seasoned reader loves to find in a quality new adult novel. Strong character growth. A powerful, emotionally charged plot. Romantic chemistry that will put you on the edge of your seat. Outstanding character dialogue and flawless writing. At times while I was reading, my heart felt bruised, but in the end, I found this story completely fulfilling.

For all these reasons, I’m giving Colleen Hoover a 6-star rating. This 2016 favorite is inspiring, and I honestly expect it will be life-changing for many readers. You won’t want to miss this novel. Please be sure to read It Ends With Us!

Michel’s Review

Spoiler Free Review

After reading It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover I was at wits end on how to review this book.  There are just not the right kind of words to describe this reading experience without giving away spoilers.  It’s a novel that each reader needs to experience themselves.  The only word I could use to accurately describe this novel is PROFOUND.

It Ends With Us is not the typical romance.  I wouldn’t even put this novel in the romance genre.  It is more like a contemporary fiction novel or womens fiction novel.

I would suggest that readers stay away from social media and sites where spoilers and in depth reviews are posted .  This type of influence could give the readers the wrong perceptions going in. I highly recommend going into this novel “blind”, free of any influence from the outside world.

Colleen Hoover is a gifted writer that delivers a unique reading experience with every one of her novels.  It Ends With Us has layers upon layers within the overall plot of the story.  Each and everyone of her characters are multi dimensional.  There are so many shades of gray within this novel.  Colleen colors these shades of gray and gives the reader a completely different perspective.  As this novel progresses, the colors change in value and tone, very much like a kaleidoscope .  In the end the reader walks away with new perceptions, a deeper understanding of these life circumstances, and hopefully a more tolerable opinion.

Each character in this novel was shaped by their pasts.  There were cracks in their entire being.  They were both good and bad, loving and hateful, and lastly broken but not beyond salvation.  They were who they were and had to choose how to proceed in their future lives.  They all had to choose the path they wanted to take in their future that would illuminate rather than darken their lives.

This novel touched me on so many different emotional and physical levels.  I walked away with a different perspective.  In no way do I condone some of the issues but I will not be quick to judge people in these life situations.

The writing was beyond superb.  It delivered a very profound message.  It was a real portrayal of life, love, relationships, and family.  It was enlightening.  The overall message was positive.

About Colleen Hoover

Author Bio:

image005Colleen Hoover’s love for writing began in 1985 when she was five years old. Her first story was titled “Mystery Bob” and was a huge hit with her mother, who was really good at faking interest.
Colleen continued to write short stories for friends and family until December of 2011, when she decided to write a long story she titled, “Slammed.” She self-published SLAMMED to Amazon in January, 2012 and it hit the NYT’s bestsellers list in May, 2012. She has since signed with Atria Books, a division of Simon & Schuster, and now has six NYT’s bestsellers. Colleen prefers to be called a writer, as the term “author” still terrifies her and makes this feel like a job with expectations. She doesn’t work well under pressure and hopes writing will always remain fun and exciting.
Colleen’s newest novel, UGLY LOVE, releases August 5th, 2014. She is currently working on a new novel, CONFESS, which she is writing as fast as she can before she wakes up from this crazy dream.

You can follow Colleen on Instagram and Twitter @colleenhoover. You can also find her on her blog at http://www.colleenhoover.com where she holds a daily book-a-day giveaway, or on her very active Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/authorcolleenhoover where she loves to give away more free stuff when her husband isn’t looking.

Colleen also wants the world to know that writing short biographies in third person is incredibly awkward.

Life down South just got a whole lot sweeter in Susan Schild’s new novel about a woman whose happily-ever-after is about to begin…whether she’s ready for it or not. 

 Finally, just shy of forty years old, Linny Taylor is living the life of her dreams in her charming hometown of Willow Hill, North Carolina. The past few years have been anything but a fairy tale: Left broke by her con man late-husband, Linny has struggled to rebuild her life from scratch. Then she met Jack Avery, the town’s much-adored veterinarian. And she’s marrying him.

Everything should be coming up roses for Linny. So why does she have such a serious case of pre-wedding jitters? It could be because Jack’s prosperous family doesn’t approve of her rough-and-tumble background. Or that his ex-wife is suddenly back on the scene. Or that Linny has yet to win over his son’s heart. All these obstacles—not to mention what she should wear when she walks down the aisle—are taking the joy out of planning her wedding. Linny better find a way to trust love again, or she might risk losing the one man she wants to be with—forever…

Sinopsis

Eric Callahan is a powerful man, and his sharp business sense has earned him the nickname Shark. Yet under the strict façade is a man who loves his daughter and would do anything for her. When he and his daughter move to San Francisco for three months, he has one thing in mind: expanding his business on the West Coast. As a widower, Eric is not looking for love.

He has a body made for sin, and a sense of humor that matches hers. Not to mention that seeing how adorable he is with his daughter melts Pippa’s walls one by one.

The chemistry between them is undeniable, but it’s the connection that grows deeper every day that has both of them wonder if love might be within their reach.

When it’s time for Eric and his daughter to head back home, will he give up on the woman who has captured his heart or will he do everything in his power to remain by her side?

Tania Sparks is a
romantic at heart who genuinely believes in true love and soul mates. She met
her husband while still at school, she was sixteen, he was seventeen. They are
high school sweethearts who more than twenty five years later are still very
much in love and are happily married with two beautiful daughters.
 
Tania
does have a full time job, but in her spare minutes enjoys spending time with
her family, cooking and reading. She’s an avid reader who tends to chomp
through a large volume of books, mainly in the romance genre. Her other major
‘hobby’ is writing steamy rock star erotic romances!
 
In 2014,
after finding herself constantly being inspired by numerous romance novels, she
decided to try her hand at writing. After penning her first scene she
discovered that she enjoyed it immensely and so resolved to continue with the
rest of the story that was swirling in her imagination. That story resulted in
her first novel, Heaven Sent which is the first book in her Oblivion on Tour
Series. This was soon followed by Bolt From The Blue and Pure Torture. Each
book in the series is a stand-alone story which follows a different band member
from a hard rock group called Oblivion – and of course the feisty ladies that
steal their hearts! The other books in the series are at various stages of
completion.
 
Now-a-days
Tania finds it very difficult to control her imagination and swears that her
rock stars are constantly chanting their stories in her head. She can’t wait to
share them with you…

Veiled

By Karina Halle

Buy: Amazon 

 

Veiled AMAZONFrom the New York Times bestselling author of The Lie and The Pact comes a new romance that will test your limits and leave you breathless.

Death.

It’s something that Ada Palomino has always known so well, having grown up in a house of horrors, surrounded by a family plagued by ghosts and demons and things that go bump in the night.

But after the sudden and tragic death of her mother two years ago, death has never felt so personal.

Or so close.

Now eighteen, Ada is trying to move on with her life and the last month of summer holds nothing but sunshine and promises with her first year at a Portland design school just around the bend.

That is until her increasingly violent and realistic dreams, dreams of other worlds, of portals and veils where her mother is tortured and souls bleed for mercy, start to blend into reality. Ada has to lean on her older sister, Perry, to try and make sense of it all but even then, she’s never felt more alone.

Then there’s Jay. Tall, handsome and deeply mysterious, Jay would be just another stranger, a familiar face on the bus, if it wasn’t for the fact that Ada has met him before.

Every night.

In every single dream.

And the more that Ada is drawn to him in both worlds, the more she’s in danger of losing everything.

Including her heart.

And her very soul.

Excerpt

 

 

Then, out of nowhere:

“You looked beautiful tonight, by the way.”

Oh jeez. Be still my fucking heart.

I try and swallow, his words, the sincerity in his voice rocking my world off-balance. “Which part? When the power went out or when Jacob went upstairs to fight a demon?” I joke. But I joke because I’m feeling this a little too much.

“All of it. You know why I call you Princess?” he asks, his tone graver than before, like he’s letting me in on a very deep secret.

“Because I’m a spoiled brat?”

“Because you’re beautiful.”

Well that shut me up. The sentence hangs in the air, larger than life.

He clears his throat and goes on and I have to fight against the urge to roll over and face him. “You have this way about you. You don’t see it. But I do. Like you’re born royalty. The way you hold yourself. Your walk. The face of an angel.”

Butterflies take flight in my gut, spreading through my veins until my whole body feels like its floating. “Why are you being so nice to me? Am I going to die?”

He laughs softly. “I don’t know why I’m saying these things. Just seemed like the things to say. You’re destined for something great, Ada, I know this. And it’s an honor to help see you through it.”

His words cascade down on me like ashes from a fire. Where they land, I’m ignited.

Jay thinks I’m beautiful.

And more than that, he believes in me.

Silence settles over us, stealing time. I hear him breathing in the dark, steady as a heartbeat. He might even be sleeping.

But I can’t even begin to shut down. My entire body, from the top of my scalp, down to my toes, is buzzing with heat and electricity. It’s like everything I felt for him before, everything I try to ignore, is coming out in full force, responding to his words, to his body so close to mine. I can feel the warmth at my back, sinking into my spine, just from his presence only.

I’m starting to have feelings for him. Not just in a he’s a giant hulking beast who’s here to protect me from the underworld way. But real feelings, slowly creeping into my heart, day by day.

The thought is terrifying in the same way that demons are terrifying.

They both might take possession of me.

They both might ruin me.

And I’m not sure how much of me I’ll have left.

QUESTIONS ABOUT VEILED

Q: Is this YA?

A: No. The main character is 18 and there is sex, crude language and violence in the book. It is recommended for mature teens or 18 and up.

Q: Is there a cliffhanger?

A: Nope! There’s also no cheating and no love triangle (think I’ve covered the bases there!)

Q: Do I need to read the series (Experiment in Terror) that Veiled is a spinoff of first?

A: Absolutely not. Veiled stands alone. You do not need to have read the EIT series beforehand as this follows a different character (Ada Palomino) and a different storyline. However for those who have read EIT, all your favorites are in the book!

Q: Is it horror? Your other series was and I don’t handle scary very well…

A: No, it’s paranormal romance (though I promise you there are no vampires or werewolves), and while there are creepy elements to the story, it wouldn’t be classified as horror. If you can read KMM’s Fever Series or ANY urban fantasy, you’ll be fine.

Fatal_Identity-cover

Every family has its secrets…

As the first anniversary of her marriage to Vice President Nick Cappuano approaches, Lieutenant Sam Holland is dreaming of Bora Bora—sun, sand and a desperately needed break from the DC grind. But real life has a way of intervening, and Sam soon finds herself taking on one of the most perplexing cases of her career.

Government worker Josh Hamilton begs Sam to investigate his shocking claim that his parents stole him from another family thirty years ago. More complicated still, his “father” is none other than the FBI director. When a member of Josh’s family is brutally murdered, Sam begins to question how deep this cover-up goes. Is it possible the revered director was part of a baby-napping ring and that others involved are also targets?

With a killer intent on deadly revenge and her team still reeling from a devastating loss, Sam’s plate is full—and when Nick and their son, Scotty, take ill, is her dream of a tropical anniversary celebration in peril too?

Tracey’s Review

There isn’t a book that Marie has written that I do not love. I always picture Marie’s series like a big Tree of Life, with branches going out everywhere from a solid trunk/foundation. The McCarthys, the Harringtons the Abbotts, Nick Capuano and Sam Holland, Marie’s books are always full of family, of a thread that runs throughout and connects everything in a beautiful way.

Okay, so, yes, FATAL IDENTITY is the tenth book in the Fatal series by Marie Force. And, no, I haven’t read any of the previous books in the series. Should I have? Of course, because it’s Marie Force. But, it’s Marie Freaking Force, and I don’t care how many books have come before, if it’s hers, and I have the chance, I’m reading it! Phew, okay, onward…

Life for Sam and Nick is far from boring. With Nick busy as the recently elected vice-president of the United States, Sam is surrounded by more security than even she is used to. When she is approached by the son of a prominent politico with a story sure to blow things wide open, even a suspension won’t keep Sam from solving the case.

I absolutely devoured FATAL IDENTITY. It’s a page-turner for sure, and I could not put it down. I was completely engaged by both the story and the characters, and, even though I have not read the prior books in the series, it didn’t take me long to catch up at all.

Sam is a go-getter, and a strong woman. She is not afraid to speak her mind, to step on toes, if need be, and she leads her team like a pro. That she commands such respect on her own merits, and not because she’s married to the VP, says a lot about her abilities. Her relationship with Nick, their son, Scotty, and the rest of her family is warm and real, even given her new role.

Marie has done a great job with the plot in FATAL IDENTITY, and, while I had inklings, I really was guessing up until the end. Action, intrigue, danger, all of these elements worked together to make this book one that I would happily recommend. I can’t wait to see what Marie has in store for Sam, Nick, and the crew for their next adventure. 5 sexy, feisty, edge of your seat stars for this one. Now, excuse me while I go back and start at Book 1…
