I believe that there is always a book out there to read no matter your mood. If you get into a fight with someone you love, this is a great book to read. It’s literally a quick reminder (only 24 pages) about forgiveness. It’s done in a modern, believable, and most importantly a romantic way.
I’m not a huge fan of short stories and novellas, but this is one I know that I’ll read again in the future.

Re-reading books is my new guilty pleasure. This book was too tempting not to read again.
Micah is a generally a walled off man that doesn’t care to share a lot of personal details about his past. Angelina, the little sister of his deceased best friend, returns from his past. She’s a sexy Latina with a determination to seduce the man of her dreams. Micah tries to fight his overwhelming lustful attraction for her, but he cannot resist. His domination of Angelina’s body is scorching hot! You’ll need a glass of cold water nearby to help cool you off.
Add a little suspense to the mix and the culmination is one hell of a book.
This series is absolutely flipping amazing. New to the sex club scene? Read these books! Sex, action, and romance, this series has it all. (A little menagerie, too) I cannot say that I have a favorite in the series, because they are all great. I suggest reading them in order, because the characters develop throughout the series.

Emma Chase is a master at writing about arrogant men that you can’t help but fall in love with!
This book is hilarious! I found myself laughing out loud while I was reading in public. I got a few stares. Instead of feeling embarrassed, I thought to myself – you really need to pick up a copy of this book.
One of my favorite parts that I can share without spoiling too much:
Rosaleen, the little girl, feels sorry that she just vomited in the kitchen.
Jake’s responds, “It’s okay, Rosaleen – it’s just puke. It’s not a big deal.” The dog then starts to eat the puke. “See? . . . You did me a favor – now I won’t have to feed the dog.”
I most adore the tender moments. When Jake admits while he is kissing Chelsea that if nothing more occurred, he could be happy.
With 6 kids (or cockblockers as Jake refers to them) in the house, Chelsea and Jake need to get a little creative. The scenes are hot, fun, and desperately passionate.
All in all, HOT, FUN, & SINCERE. Did I mention HOT?

to Emma Chase!
“He’s the sort of guy who’d never be in any woman’s friend zone or brother zone. He’s the sort of guy you fantasize about having for a lover . . .” Saint is the kind of guy that makes for fantastic romance novels.
Would a man with a reputation for being a womanizer and that can afford anything his heart desires ever be interested in a single woman of moderate means? I love that this story is told from Rachel’s perspective’s exclusively. As the reader, we are just as much in the dark as she is as to how Saint behaves when she isn’t around.
Will he hurt Rachel just as her friend was dumped by Paul? I found Rachel’s friend incessant reminding of her own personal drama absolutely annoying in a very real kind of way. Everyone knows at least one person that can only see things from their own perspective and unsuitably try to project those same feelings or circumstances into other people’s business.
BEWARE: Ends with a cliffhanger! I immediately ordered the next 2 books.

The story of Blake and Erica continues to be hot, sexy, and full of surprises. As Blake and Erica have fallen in love, the heat and passion between them becomes limitless.
Blake shows a more caring side in this book, which makes him even more attractive.
Despite having enjoyed the first three novels in this series, I was a bit hesitant to read this book. Other novels that revolve around to two lovers and reach the 4th novel in the series seem to fizzle. That is not the case at all in the Hacker Series. As I discussed in an earlier post, Meredith Wild has constructed a beautiful web of characters that constantly keeps the story fresh and interesting.

Charlotte was a good girl.
Sweet and innocent, a debutante with her Daddy’s credit card and a fiancée who doted on her.
She was destined for a perfect picture life in Charleston.
Until everything goes wrong.
EJ grew up with everything she could ever want, and bored as hell.
Nothing surprises her and nothing ever changes, and she wants out—whatever it takes.
Getting involved with Anthony Jacobs is probably the worst idea she’s ever had—and that makes it irresistible.
Until Charlie needs her.
New Orleans. Memphis. Vegas.
Beautiful girls who know just how to get exactly what they want.
It’s all fun and games, sexy nights and wild parties.
But you can only manipulate your way out of so much, and the body count is rising. When their past catches up, not even a pretty smile will get them out of trouble this time.
A Sexy, Sinful, and Sizzling Suspense. I couldn’t stop turning the pages even though this isn’t the genre that I prefer to read. This book reads like an action/suspense film or show. In fact, this story is perfect to be translated into video medium.
The story moves along very quickly. Time and time again I found my jaw dropping and thinking to myself, “Holy shit, I didn’t see that coming.”
The character backgrounds were well-developed and intriguing. The author parses out the tidbits of information in a compelling way that entices the reader to turn the pages.
It’s difficult to go into details without spoiling this story, which would be a crime.

This story takes during the 1950’s when many Americans were highly suspicious of Russians living in the U.S. The disdain to which Ivan’s family has endured has scared him and turned him into a hard and bitter man. At first, his gruff nature was very off-putting. Despite this, some continue to offer him kindness that he fails to see. It isn’t until June starts chipping away at his attitude does he find a way to smile.
Ivan is attracted to June. “Why was she so embedded inside of him? This woman with whom he’d shared a handful of heated words. Maybe because she hadn’t balked. She hadn’t backed away from his hard glare. There was determination in her face, courage in her eyes.”
June is not without her own personal challenges. She must break away from her ever pleasing attitude and not constantly succumb to other’s expectations.
Like many other romances, misunderstandings tear the lovers apart. But what was unique here was the deeply rooted understanding between them that wills them together.
The “superhero” aspect in this book becomes a more prominent piece of the story. Sorry but I’m not going to spoil the story line and give away too much.
I do love the romantic use of Ivan’s ability to make flowers grow. He wants to bring flowers to June, but not just any ordinary flower. He puts a lot of thought into what would be a perfect flower choice. “June’s flower wasn’t anything he’d find in a greenhouse, or a florist’s shop, or even in a meadow. June was singular, and she could only be contained in the bloom of his power.”
A man willing to put that much thought into a gift for a woman is the epitome of romance!

“That wasn’t the fairy tale, but it was real.”
This isn’t a flowery romance. It’s a story with a complicated past that leads to intense feelings. Deep hatred that straddles a thin line to deep passion.
The blessed yin to the happily ever after in a romance book is the gut-wrenching yang. Samantha Young nailed it,
“I hated that hope. I hated that it made me feel so weak and broken by him. Like without that hope, I’d never, ever quite be the same again.”
On a side note, I highly suggest reading Samantha Young’s other series, On Dublin Street. The series and characters are addictive. See some related posts:
Samantha Young – Echoes of Scotland Street
Samantha Young – Moonlight on Nightingale Way (On Dublin Street #6 )
Who wouldn’t fall in love after just one first date with Xavier Townsend? He’s attractive, gracious, sweet, and romantic? Not exactly what you would expect from the bad boy playboy, which makes him all the more alluring.
Lila is a strong young woman that is not easily impressed by good looking men. But she can’t deny the chemistry that she feels for Xavier. It’s too strong for her not to take a chance.
Let’s talk romance. Romance isn’t all about roses and chocolates, but this book brings the use of roses to an entirely new level. It all begins with a date to a garden in Las Vegas (unique due to the climate of the area) where Xavier purchases a rose bush for Lila. I love the use of roses as a continuing theme throughout the story.
While this story fades to black for all the intimate scenes, it is still hot. The attraction between Lila and Xavier is expressive.
Master Parker makes for an impressive Dom. His protectiveness is heart-warming. His patience for vanilla is sweet.
Shelby is a strong woman. I love how she embraces her circumstances and wears the colorful wigs.
Again, Carter is my favorite character that likes to tease all his friends. He pushes Parker’s buttons in the best of ways.
***SPOILER ALERT***
I don’t usually include spoilers, but when cancer is involved I feel a need to do so. It’s a disease that affects many people and can turn lives upside down. I generally pass on books where someone dies from cancer. That is not the case in this book. I would hate for someone like myself to pass on this book because they feared a sad story.
