Disappearing without a word, Eden Richardt fled from her naïve former life in Oregon to start anew in the Midwest. Being a morning radio show host, she’s got a lot going for her except finding someone to share her life with. In that aspect, no one seemed to compare to the one. Having absolutely no desire to step foot back in her hometown of Cottage Grove, her decision was swayed with an invitation to her high school reunion and solidified after receiving a letter from her first and only love from her past.

Living his life the best way he knows how, Baylor Jenkins spends his time running the family plumbing business, after giving up his dream to be an Architect, and raising his almost teenage daughter solely without the help of his ex-wife. In the back of his mind he knows something was missing from his otherwise enjoyable life. But that something was actually a someone who disappeared after graduation; a former best friend turned lover.

Locking eyes after fifteen long years raises deep emotions and unanswered questions:

What happened to make Eden run?

Could their love for each other still exist?

Or will their past time together be nothing more than a memory?

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

Ohhhhh 2^nd chance romance…so sweet.  I am really draw to those stores because doesn’t every one wonder at one point in their life about a lost love????

Eden loved her best friend Baylor for as long as she can remember.  Too bad he never saw her that way.  Or did he?  On graduation night when love is on the cusp for our characters, Eden runs away??  WHAT!!  It takes 15 years for her to return and face the past that she left all those years ago.

Eden is bound to face her past and see why it took Baylor 15 years to email her.  Baylor is stunned stupid when he sees the love of his life but can’t believe she actually came to the school reunion.  Dean, the couples last partner or third of the musketeers, is there to help the couple navigate through everything to find a way back to the other.  When the reason for the big miscommunication is revealed…smh…someone was gonna get a big old throat punch for causing drama.

When Eden and Baylor rebound from the past and look to the future they are both scared to question it.  She has to go home to Tennessee and he has to stay in Oregon.  Again our couple is so scared that they don’t talk and so again heart ache happens but this time Baylor will not give up without a fight.

I am so freaking excited for book 2 because Dean will killing me in this book.  He is so sweet and he loved Eden just as much as Baylor.  I want him to find his true love and I guarantee a certain bestie hairdresser will give him a good run for his money!!!

The Promise
A promise made to comfort a patient on his deathbed sends the retired army officer Dr. Whitten M.D. on an excursion into the darkest worlds of pornography.
It was the doctor who made the promise but it is the man who must honor it. A God fearing gentle man, a family man, a widowed and lonely man deep in his middle years. Layer by layer his years fall away as love and fate, the promise and the affair draw him ever deeper until he once again feels like the elite soldier of his youth facing an evil more vile than any contested in open combat.
With a boot between his heart and the horror Carl Whitten honors his promise. Accompanied by a beautiful escapee from the realms of sex as cinema he learns the suffering on a battlefield barely compares to the misery found where love falls victim to lust, where lust turns to bloodlust for those who still know love.

Dear Dr. Ranik:
I am writing to you because you helped my mother Mrs. Beverly Kendall and she speaks highly of you.
I am enclosing a copy of a document I stumbled across while on a friend’s computer. I opened the file because my name was part of the file name. When I first read the file I was quite disturbed and confused, which I’m sure you’ll understand when you have read what I found. I have read it several times now, with my feelings under better control since I knew what to expect. The facts in the story do not contradict what little I know of Mother’s early life and the dates would seem to be right. If you would be so kind, would you please read this and advise me on how I should proceed from here? Should I confront my parents with this, or seek counseling, or just file what I found as strange but maybe true and go on?

Yours truly,
Amber Lynn Kendall

I was given a copy of this book by the author for an honest review.

Stain is the second book in the Kings Harlot Series. I am loving these tough as nail MC ladies and the Alpha military men. They each complement each other so well. Stain is Meeka and Ash’s story.

Meeka is trying to make up for what happened in Grit. Trying to stay in good graces with her sister and prove she can be trusted. She has been best friends with Ash since they were kids and has been through so much together.

Ash is under cover trying to take down the human traffickers and needs his best friends help. Only problem is there is no way Meeka will submit to Asher for this undercover assignment or will she?

Oh man the chemistry between these two was amazing. They tried so hard to keep their relationship in the friend zone but after the first kiss they were done for. The story lines kept me turning the pages I had to know what was going to happen next. Then we get little hint of what has been going on with Angel and Jay since Grit. The twist had me shocked I never saw that coming. I so want to know more about these women and their men. I need to know what’s going to happen with Coby and Brogan and then is Dale ever gonna do the right thing. I am so falling in love with these characters but I cannot wait for Coby he is so quiet and holds everything in I need to know his story!

J.M. Walker is an Amazon bestselling author who loves all things books, pigs and lip gloss. She is happily married to the man who inspires all of her Heroes and continues to make her weak in the knees every single day.

“Above all, be the HEROINE of your own life…” ~ Nora Ephron

“It’s time to live in the light, Ella…”

With their attraction too explosive to ignore, Cassian Court has whisked Mishella Santelle from her tiny island kingdom to the empire he rules: New York City. Here, they have succumbed to the magic of Temptation Manor, surrendering to their lust—and a love that won’t be denied.

But happiness is nearly ripped away, when an act of heroism turns Cassian into a target of violence…from which physical recovery is only the beginning of healing. Cassian must find a way to expose his emotional scars too—meaning he must visit a past refusing to release him from its haunting grip.

“Take me into the darkness, Cassian…”

What are the secrets of Turret Two? Once revealed, will they clear a path for new connection to Ella…or anchor him deeper in the past as they struggle with the challenges of the present? Being touted as New York’s fresh “it” couple is insane enough—but just when Ella decides she’s had enough of being the city’s perfect little toy, a shocking visitor changes everything…and she must accept an even more agonizing reality.

Deception isn’t always black and white. And sometimes, the prettiest toy hides the darkest secrets.

A bit about me…

I’ve been hooked on books since I was a kid but it got worse in my twenties, when I discovered romances–the hotter, the better. Growing up in Southern California, with lots of surfer manliness surrounded me, was certainly a good boost for reading about delicious alpha guys and the women who adore them. When I learned I had a knack for telling these stories too, I guess you could say I was doomed–though my path toward romance novelist took a few detours via a concert-reviewing gig for my college newspaper (free show tickets…backstage passes…that was a no-brainer), artist interviews for a Beverly Hills dance music mag, personal assistant work for a record producer, dance club disc jockey, and a lot of fun in the hospitality industry.

These days, I still live in California, and have found an amazing alpha guy of my own who was brave enough to marry me. We live on a street that looks like Brigadoon, with our beautiful daughter. I have the best life ever, and never forget to thank the Big Guy Upstairs for it, either.

Title: MISFIT

Series: Death Dwellers MC: Book 6

Author: Kathryn Kelly

Release Date: August 23, 2016

Ophelia Donovan wants to move past the loves of her life, two badass bikers in her brother’s MC. When she gave Cash “Ghost” McCall and Louis “Stretch” King, an ultimatum of bringing their relationship out in the open or she’d walk, they chose separation. It crushed Ophelia’s dreams of having a happily-ever-after and family with Ghost and Stretch.

Stretch lives with guilt and pain from the death of his former lover and the injuries he received the same night. For a while, Cash and Stretch worked fine. They’d agreed to choose a woman together to bring into their relationship. Instead, Cash brought Outlaw’s sister in, intending to use her as a shield for Cash’s growing feelings for both Stretch and Fee. The dissolution of their relationship because of Fee’s goading leaves Stretch angry with both of his lovers.

Ghost doesn’t do relationships. He doesn’t have the confidence in himself that he’s equipped for something meaningful. He only knows he loves both Stretch and Ophelia. She wants kids, a house with him and Stretch, and, most of all, an open relationship with them, so open she expects Ghost to go to her brother—his club’s president—and confess all. Even if he did do commitment, he wouldn’t be alive to see it through. Outlaw would kill Ghost, especially after already warning him away. Thanks to Cash’s outrageous plan to throw Outlaw off, he raises the man’s suspicions instead.

Christopher “Outlaw” Caldwell knows Ghost is about fun and fucking. He’s in charge of the Bobs, those women trotted out for pleasure at special club occasions. Outlaw’s little sister wants a family and he refuses to allow her to waste her years on a man who’ll walk away in the end. Outlaw’s life has been quiet recently, with every known club threat removed, giving him plenty of time to focus on family.

A biker from a rival club uses Ophelia to get on Outlaw’s good side, leaving her gravely injured, Outlaw in jail, Stretch admitting how important both she and Cash are to him, and Cash determined to never deny his love again.

Warning: Not suitable for anyone under 18. Contains excessive swearing, graphic sex between MMF, taboo subjects, and…Kendall at her finest.

“Daphne, fuck, don’t fucking do this. You’re wrong about Meggie and Fee is caught up in this.”

Folding her arms, Daphne scowled.

Cash cursed his stupidity. She’d have no sympathy for Fee.

“That fucking matters to me how?”

“Whatever you believe about Meggie, what has Fee ever done to you?”

“Other than get you?”

“Don’t say that bullshit! Ophelia doesn’t have me. Outlaw has barred me from having anything to do with her.”

“That didn’t stop you, did it? So she has you.”

Thinking of this weekend, Cash knew Daphne was right. Something had changed between all three of them. A new dynamic that Cash had to fight.

“Fee doesn’t deserve to have her brother turn against her because you want money and Kendall wants a fucking job.”

Instead of responding, Daphne leaned back and peeped at him through her lashes, roaming her hands down his back. “Why are we arguing?”

Her touch added to his pain and he grimaced, jerking away. “Why are we arguing? Why don’t I just blow you the fuck away and save Outlaw the trouble?”

Daphne tensed, fear sliding into her face. “You’d kill me for helping Kendall take a page from your book? Granted, she’s been paying me to fuck with Meggie, here and there. But she’s using your diversionary tactics. Your games gave Kendall this idea.”

The woman twisted anything to benefit herself. “Let me guess,” Cash said tightly. “You told her what I did?”

“Naturally.”

Kendall wanted seven days. He’d been furious that Fee’d allowed herself to be blackmailed, but Cash understood the position she’d found herself in.

He could kill Daphne, but they rarely killed women. While he was concerned about Meggie, his main priority was Fee. Any action on his part might give Kendall unnecessary ammunition. Outlaw casting Fee aside due to poor judgment would devastate her.

Sick to his stomach, he got to his feet. He’d been so fucking arrogant and disrespectful. Now, the shit was coming back to bite him in the ass. The next seven days would be unbearable but he had no one to blame but himself. He couldn’t even blame Kendall.

His antics left him with two choices: Confess all to spare Outlaw drama with Meggie, and forfeit his own life, not to mention Stretch’s, Kendall’s, and Daphne’s, while also ruining Fee’s relationship with her brother. Or, allow it all to go down, knowing Meggie had already gotten upset over Daphne.

Whichever he decided, he hoped he came out alive after his bad judgment started a chain of bullshit that spiraled out-of-control.

In Kat’s head, she’s the ultimate biker babe. In reality, she is an ordinary, everyday person who loves scotch, reading, writing, and football.

Manchester Marauders offensive lineman Jason Stafford has everything going for him until he is blindsided by a calculating woman who names him as the father of her unborn child. Unsure of the validity of her claim, he treads carefully, despite being willing to accept responsibility.

Maude Killion, the younger sister of one of Jason’s teammates, has been sidelined by a crush on Jason. Determined to revise her game plan, Maude asserts her independence from her overprotective brother and a controlling boyfriend.

While working on a charity project, Maude and Jason discover they play well together. But when Maude becomes the victim of a malicious foe, it appears that another player has entered the game—one with deadly intentions who will stop at nothing to win.

Now, Maude and Jason must join forces to defeat their opponent and score a victory for love.

 Barely able to keep up with his long strides, Maude followed him down the corridor to an old gym. No overhead lights, along with the gray skies, kept the room dark.

Which might have been a good thing, because her mind blanked the moment Jason shoved her against the wall and kissed her.

In shock, she took a moment to catch up with his hungry lips before shoving against his chest. “What are you doing? What is this?”

He smiled his wicked playboy smile and drew her lower body against his own. “Gratitude.”

“Gratitude for what?” Maude drew a deep breath, fighting past whatever blocked her throat and caused her heart to thunder.

He tucked her hair behind her ear. “For listening to me the other night.”

“I didn’t mind. I don’t want gratitude from you. I want…I don’t know, because I can’t believe this is real. You kissing me isn’t doing anything but confusing me.” She stepped out of his arms. “Plus, you came with Ariel.”

“I didn’t leave with her.”

“Oh, that’s a great line, one I’m sure you’ve used often, but with me…no. Just no. I don’t do lines, and I don’t do grateful kisses.”

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

EEEP!!  When we first meet Maude we can SEE her massive crush on her brother’s team mate, Jason.  We can KINDA see he likes her but is it for the ego stroke or more??  I loved watching their banter back and forth which also hid some fireworks both were letting off.

Jason is a PLAYER!!  I mean to the 100^th degree.  He is with a different girl every day and even two in a day.  He is happy with his life and his “take it or leave it but I don’t go back for 2^nd” life.  His life hits a snag when his “hit it and quit it” regular Ariel says she is preggo.  This puts Jason in a tail spin and he starts to prioritize his life.

Maude is all career woman now.  She is taking steps away from her crush of Jason by dating, unsuccefully, Brady.  She is going to move on with her life and let her desire for him go since he is never going to see her as more than just Owen’s little sister.  When she comes home from the beginning of the ending for her and Brady she sits and talks with Jason.  He spills his life drama to the one woman who won’t judge.  This is the one woman who loves him no matter what.  This is the one woman who will be and has been his rock.  It all clicks together for Jason…he needs Maude. PERIOD.

Jason and Maude begin to navigate dating while dealing with Owen, her big over protective brother AND Ariel, Jason’s baby mama, PLUS Maude’s ex Brady.  But when “things” begin to happen to Maude, plus Jason’s family crisis’ get worse, they both are spinning.  They don’t know what to do except hold on tighter to each other!!

The one thing I love about these books are the theme of family but I also love the suspense/mystery of the novels.  The “who done it” of the books are always great reads.  I am super excited for the next book because I am dying to know who Clayton is falling for!!
