It’s time for more men and motorcycles in the latest from the New York Times bestselling author of Reaper’s Fall…

The club comes first.

I’ve lived by those words my whole life—assumed I’d die by them, too, and I never had a problem with that. My Reaper brothers took my back and I took theirs and it was enough. Then I met her. Tinker Garrett. She’s beautiful, she’s loyal, and she works so damned hard it scares me sometimes . . . She deserves a good man—one better than me. I can’t take her yet because the club still needs me. There’s another woman, another job, another fight just ahead.

Now she’ll learn I’ve been lying to her all along. None of it’s real. Not my name, not my job, not even the clothes I wear. She thinks I’m nice. She pretends we’re just friends, that I’ve still got a soul . . . Mine’s been dead for years. Now I’m on fire for this woman, and a man can only burn for so long before he destroys everything around him.

I’m coming for you, Tinker.

Soon.

Oh Holly Crap where to begin this story had it all. I was all over the place with my emotions with everything they were all dealing with from situations they were in to the natural disasters going on around them. Not only did I have emotions for Gage and Tinker but for the side characters too.  WOW did Joanna Wylde tell a great story and make me feel like I was smack dab in the middle of it all.

Gage was sent to find out what was going down with the Nighthawk Raiders MC and as part of his cover he had to make Talia, who was the MC’s President Sister, his girlfriend. WOW was this chic a piece of work no scratch that she was psycho seriously she needed serious meds! I felt bad that Gage had to be with the crazy one. Anyway he had to secure a job and a place to stay and was able to do this by becoming Tinkers handyman and living in her building. Man oh man were the sparks flying between these two but no way Gage could cross that line and blow his cover.

Tinker left her ex moved home to take care of her Dad after her mom died. I loved her determination and she was dedicated to her dad and her business. The way she stood up to her ex I was cheering her on at that point. Loved her BFF and the moments they had on the porch drinking wine ‘man watching’.

This was an amazing book so many twist and turns I had my heart in my throat so many times wondering what was going to happen was there going to be a town, who was going to make it through everything. Oh to see the Reapers were great and the hard time Pic gave Gage each time he talked to him was priceless. This book has something going from jump and will not let me go until the last word was read. I so love these men and Joanna does a great job drawing me into the story and not letting me go. I cannot wait for the next one.

AHHH DO I love these Reapers!!  Joanna has a way to make each guy so flawed and far from perfect yet so wonderful and delicious that we will forgive them of their flaws and imperfections.

Coop aka Gage is no different from the rest of the crew.  He is going undercover for his brother to investigate a side club.  They seem to forget and his clubs cut of their business.  SO Pic sends Gage in to infiltrate the group.  Now we see part of this story from Painters book but this is a way more in depth story line since its Tinker and Gage’s POV.  When Gage arrives he is stunned stupid at his beautiful, curvy, landlady.  Too bad he has to follow the the skank Talia around to get an invite to the club.  The club her tweeked brother Marsh runs.  The same club who is screwing over the Reapers.

Tinker, our heroine, has been through it.  Her ex hubby is such a DB.  She is over men and lies…then she meets Coop and the chemistry’s crazy.  Too bad he likes skanks and cray chicks like Talia.  Tinker is trying to stay away but the pull between the two is sooo heavy…even an idiot like Talia can see and feel it.

The story of Tinker’s ex hubby is good along with the club and Gage’s infiltration but the real story is the fire that is burning around the town.  The forest fires are a real threat to the town and to the couple.  As the action is drawing close so are the wild fires.

I loved the story and the epilogue was the icing on the cake because we can see out into the future.  We see Gage and Tinker plus what happens to them years later.

Joanna Wylde started her writing career in journalism, working in two daily newspapers as both a reporter and editor. Her career has included many different jobs, from managing a homeless shelter to running her own freelance writing business, where she took on projects ranging from fundraising to ghostwriting for academics. During 2012 she got her first Kindle reader as a gift and discovered the indie writing revolution taking place online. Not long afterward she started cutting back her client list to work on Reaper’s Property, her breakout book. It was published in January 2013, marking the beginning of a new career writing fiction.

Joanna lives in the mountains of northern Idaho with her family.

Not everything is black and white, cut and dry. I know this is wrong. I know this goes against everything I stand for. I took an oath, a vow of secrecy. But I crave a world I’ve only read about, dreamt about, and yearned for.
So when I’m given the opportunity to explore my darkest desires, I’m torn between a physical need and a professional oath. But once I have a taste of Cain Hamilton, all of my sound judgement is gone. The consequences didn’t matter. I just wanted him. All of him, nothing else mattered.

I received the book from the author for an honest opinion.

Sierra is a therapist who is intrigued with the BDSM club owned by Cain. She decided to go to the club and check it out. She meets Cain, who is not sure she is ready for the club. Cain is total Alpha male especially when it comes to Sierra. He is dealing with these new feelings he has for Sierra. Cain is hot and cold which confuses Sierra until there is another man interested in Sierra. Then all bets are off and Cain is taking what’s his.

This was a quick read and although I wished there were more it was good for a Novella. The insta-love was good and the sexy scenes were also good. Loved that sierra was strong and dominating when it came to her day life but was able to submit to the sexy alpha male, Cain. This kept my interest and had me turning pages from start to finish.

 

Nicole Hart lives in Boyd, Texas with her husband and two kids. She’s a hopeless romantic who believes in Happily Ever After.

I was destined for stardom.
From the age of seven, I was an all-star.
Parents praised me, coaches worshipped me.
As I got older, girls begged for me.
I was Beltline’s baseball God, guaranteed to put this small town on the map.

Then, after one night, that future vanished.

The legend was laid to rest.
I gave up my scholarship.
I fled from Beltline.
I left the girl behind.

Now, I’m back.

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

Who loves a GOOD 2^nd chance romance??  MEEEE!!  That is who!! I gotta say this is the first baseball romance book that I have read (or can remember) and I loved it.  As much as I love rockers and motorcycle hotties, I was loving this new hero story….well new for me anyway.

This is the story of high school love that is torn apart by an accident……by a simple tragedy.  Our town hero baseball stud gets the blame and is essentially chased outta town.  He doesn’t want to hurt the love of his life so he lets her go as well as run from the pain of the situation.

When the story begins to unfold we see our baseball hottie Crosby getting a 2^nd chance at life in general.  He is going to be playing baseball for another college.  This college he will reunite with his best friend Brax and his love El.  He needs her and it’s taken him 2 years to figure it crap out!!  El is stunned when Cros reenters her life…she has moved on….or tried to move on and is not sure if her heart can handle his return.

The couple have so much to deal with from outside forces trying to break them apart because he is a “super star athlete” to their home town hating him to her family saying apart they will lead better lives but El and Crosby can’t let go.  They are the air the other needs.

As the story unfolds we get more and more details of the “night” that changed their lives.  When the final showdown happens I GASPED at what El tells our “villain” but was happy to see her taking a stand for the man she loves and the man she can’t be without.

The series, I am super stoked for!!  I can’t wait for Brax book.  I kinda wiggled my eyes at him and am like “hey Michelle I need more dets on this guy” and especially about who he was comforting after a bad night!!!????

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

Wow…Never realized how hot ball players could be. This is the first baseball story I hve read and mam I think I’m going to LOVE this series. I could not get enough of Crosby Lynch then there was Braxton, Oliver, and Tyler.

Crosby was a great ball player had a scholarship and was a town favorite but one night with friends after the big game changed everything. He lost friends, the town turned on him. He left his scholarship behind, left his town, left the love of his life and tried to move on from tragedy and give those around him a better life. Until now he is face to face with his past. Ella Keaton and Braxton Brentwood, they know his life story can he face the love of his life and best friend again after all he did?

Ella Keaton had the perfect life a boyfriend that would give her the world and a best friend. Kedsey. One night changed everything she lost a best friend and her boyfriend. Now her past is smack dab in front of her. Crosby and Ella have a strong bond and fight for a second change but have so much going against them, family, a town, a painful past. Question is will Cros and El get their forever or will their past be too much and break their hearts once more.

I so enjoyed the second change love story. The bond that Ella and Crosby have is amazing even after being apart all the time. Watching the interaction between the guys was awesome, their bets were great and Ella was a good sport too. Cros and El back story had me in tears what they went through and had to overcome. The town that was out for blood mainly Crosby’s and to see Ella stand up for what she wanted for her friends was amazing. I really wanted more of Crosby and Ella but I’m so excited for Braxton’s story and all of the guys if I’m honest.

Michelle Lynn has always been a reader, but her passion has become a full-blown addiction since her husband bought her a Kindle for Mother’s Day. She’s pretty sure that he regrets this on a regular basis. Especially when she has it propped up next to the stove while she cooks, which often results in a burnt dinner. Or when he loses sleep because the glow from the screen wakes him up when he rolls over at three in the morning. He does agree, however, that she uses this gift more than any other he has ever gotten her. She joking counters that, because of some of the steamy novels she reads, he also benefits more from this gift than any other he has gotten her. 😉

Michelle moved around the Midwest most of her life, transferring from school to school before settling down in the outskirts of Chicago ten years ago, where she now resides with her husband and two kids. She developed a love of reading at a young age, which helped lay the foundation for her passion to write. With the encouragement of her family, she finally sat down and wrote one of the many stories that have been floating around in her head. When she isn’t reading or writing, she can be found playing with her kids, talking to her mom on the phone, or hanging out with her family and friends. But after chasing around twin preschoolers all day, she always cherishes her relaxation time after putting the kids to bed.

Jessi let the warm water from the shower spray onto her face. She was happy. Tommy was happy. Angel was happy. Their much needed talk at the breakfast table set some ground rules. Angel was open to communication and encouraged it. It gave Jessi comfort. After she showered, she meandered back to the bedroom, as she towel dried her hair. Tommy and Angel were already naked and in each other’s arms on top of the unmade bed.

“What took you so long?” Tommy asked, before returning his lips to Angel’s neck.
Jessi didn’t answer. She wanted to watch. She leaned against the doorway and folded her arms. She watched Tommy kiss Angel with an urgency that she never saw before, and the love that Angel had for Tommy was never clearer than it was right now. She knew they were in love. It didn’t scare her as much as she thought it would. The confidence she had in their marriage overshadowed her fears and doubts.

Her thoughts were pushed aside by the sound of Tommy moaning and breathing heavily. Angel was stroking Tommy and sucking on his nipples.

He opened the door, swinging it wide, then stepping aside to allow me to enter before him. I walked into the penthouse suit.

“Can I get you another drink?” he asked.

I nodded; my mouth was too dry to form words.

I watched him stride to a cabinet. I heard the tinkle as ice was placed in glasses and then the splash of liquid. He returned with two crystal cut glasses and handed me one.

“More whiskey,” he said. His voice was low, husky.

I took a sip, welcoming the burn as the liquid hit my lips, my tongue, and gently slid down my throat. I cursed the ice as its noise gave away how much my hand was shaking. He took a step closer, then another. He reached up and trailed a finger down my cheek, then over my throat.

“You have for as long as it takes you to drink that whiskey. After that, if you are still here, there’s no turning back,” he said.

I raised the glass to my lips once more and downed it in one. My eyes watered. I glanced to the side of me, reached out, and placed the empty glass on a coffee table. I then stood tall and stared back at him. His lips, slowly, formed a smile, a very wicked smile.

“I don’t know your name,” I said quietly.

“Neither do you need to. Think of this as just one night with a stranger, one night to fulfil your fantasy.”

I didn’t think sex with a stranger had featured high up on my list of fantasies, but the heat coursing through my body and the throbbing between my legs told me otherwise.

Something’s gotta give…but Codie Snow doesn’t know if it needs to be her non-committal workaholic ex-boyfriend attorney Slade Sheppard or her unsatisfying job as a nursing assistant. Because even though the chemistry with Slade is off-the-charts hot and the job is a necessary evil, she doesn’t know that she wants either.

Enter Pete Olsen, bad ass cop in charge of serving and protecting the town of Dalton, Colorado. Codie goes on a ride-along with Pete and sees the seedy underbelly of her town, witnessing the gamut–from an amusing domestic dispute to a frightening meth lab explosion–and she decides that law enforcement is not for her.

But Pete just might be.

When Codie learns that a supposed suicide Pete investigated on the ride-along is actually a murder, she poses as a religious fanatic in order to gain access to the controlling cult where the dead woman was discovered, hoping to find the truth. But has she instead set herself up to be murdered–and will she uncover the killer before she becomes the next victim?

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

Fool Me Once is a quick read but man is it a great build up and packed full of suspense. I am loving these characters ok some more than others but still love them in a way.

Codi is trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life. She is a nurse but wants something different. She decides to go on a ride along with Pete a police officer but realizes really quickly she does not follow the orders or like the idea of sitting in the car so she puts herself in dangerous situations when on these ride-a-longs. She has an ex Slade that she decides she no longer wants either but Pete could be another story.

I was flipping the pages to find out what was going to happen with Codi between the situations she was getting into with her ride-a-longs and “investigations”, what was going on between her and Pete, between her and Slade, and then there were the interactions with her BFF and roomie Matthew. There was so much going on in this book. This book also sets up the next one and yes it is a cliffy. WOW I cannot wait for the next book I need to know what is going to happen and will it be Pete or Slade.

 

Jade C. Jamison was born and raised in Colorado and has decided she likes it enough to stay forever. Jade’s day job is teaching Creative Writing, but teaching doesn’t stop her from doing a little writing herself.

Unfortunately, there’s no one genre that quite fits her writing. Her work has been labeled romance, erotica, suspense, and women’s fiction, and the latter is probably the safest and closest description. But you’ll see that her writing doesn’t quite fit any of those genres.

You’ll have to discover Jade’s writing for yourself to decide if you like it.

Change is coming…

Maverick Beckett took his much needed annual vacation up to Washington State to relax with his old friends from his years in the Corps. He also had every intention of extinguishing the fires that arose between him and a certain local woman he couldn’t get out of his mind until the unthinkable happened.

Nothing is as it seems…

Henley Varano loved the simple anonymous life that her remote hometown provided. She’d had the wealthy existence of a fashion model and the fame that came with it only to find it lonelier than she could have ever imagined. Unfortunately, men only saw the fictitious person she appeared to be in the magazines and not the real woman she was—even the one man she’s wanted for years.

Surviving is just the beginning…

An apocalyptic event changes the course of their lives when the massive Yellowstone Caldera erupts. Panic ensues among the small town, causing Mav and Henley to witness the best and worst of humanity. They must work as a team to create a new existence before the fallout of harsh and fiery elements overtakes their safe haven. Along the way, they might just find that they need each other more than ever.

Series Description: The world as they know it is about to change. The Yellowstone Caldera has erupted in an apocalyptic fashion, triggering simultaneous events around the world. The one thing that will either bring society together or rip their lives apart is the need for survival as a group. A company of former Marines will do whatever it takes to reach an area in the far recesses of northeastern Washington State, a region they feel is uniquely equipped for endurance and existence in what is left of the crumbling infrastructure of the United States. Follow along as Kennedy Layne conveys each of their stories as these brave men and women face the harsh, fiery elements of an inevitable apocalypse while encountering passion, intrigue, and suspense…

I received a copy of the book from the author.

I love dystopian and End of the World type of books.  It doesn’t matter if its Zombies, Aliens, a Virus or in this case giant volcano that could really cause this kind of cataclysmic disaster.…..I am in!!  Yes please!!

Mav is hanging out at the fishing lodge with his Father type bestie, Tank.  Tank is a prepper to the max.  He loves has old military guys and loves to plan a visit every year.  This year everything changed.  When Mav is getting ready to leave, Tank tells him that his spidey senses are going off and to stay.

Henley is a famous fashion model who has run home to the small town because of the fame getting to her.  Today she is happy running the lodge with Tank and hiding from Mav when he returns to visit.  Mav and Henley have this crazy chemistry and they are drawn to each other but a past misunderstanding has put Henley on the defensive of Mav.  Good think Tank is there to kick her butt in to gear plus when the world is gonna end, you kind get over stuff quickly!!  LOL

I am going to say this book is slow…now not bad slow or kill me now slow but it’s gotta  lot of back story you need plus a cast of characters to get introduced too along with the Yellowstone super volcano erupting…so you see why I say slow???  You need all of this information to get to know the heart of the characters and who to root for or who to growl at when they appear on the pages!!  Tank is an awesome guy and he has a giant heart to help out his military family, Lodge family and the entire small town near the lodge…….I loved the love story and the, what I considered, actual could happen facts of the story.  But what I loved the most about the story is the theme of family throughout the book.  I can’t wait to read the rest of the books because I want to get to know Mav’s other military hotties.
