I don’t chase men… not even sexy papi chulos who pop into my life with their charming smiles. I should certainly avoid older ones who turn out to be my best friend’s beloved Uncle Connor. The last thing I need is another protective man in my life, even if I’m craving him.
Connor Hughes
My trip to Orlando is for an interview and to enjoy a short visit with my niece. That’s it. The tempting Latina is the furthest thing I need in my happily single life. To my surprise, the vixen slips under my skin and becomes a permanent fixture in my daily thoughts.
Deciding whether to test our undeniable chemistry may be the least of our worries, because life doesn’t always play a fair hand.
Review: Love me some independent gals and a man who can cook, always a great combo for a great read. I will say, I was super hungry after reading because they were always eating something yummy. Steady romance, a little suspense, and a fun cast of characters. Connor and Maggie only need one more thing to make this romance complete… become members of the Mile High Club!!

Steel Cut MC Montana Box Set 1-5
Great MC Series, Tissues Needed!
I am so happy that this box set was put together. I love reading a series all together. I have to say, I am a little in love with all these big bad bikers. Baldy and Hollywood are my favorites. You will need tissues when reading this book. I laughed, I gasped, and I cried. So many emotions. Each one of these girls have been through some kind of trauma. Roadkill is almost killed. Lil’ Mama has been abused, Preacher Girl was part of a cult, Lil’ Bit has major problems, and Free escaped from an abusive ex. The Steel MC’s are all about saving women from traumatic situations. I can not wait for more from this series. From a New Fan… Pam James.

Wren grew up in the Northern part of the USA. She enjoys spending time with family, curling up with a good book, coloring in her adult books and driving motorcycles, big trucks and fast cars to relieve stress after a busy week.
Born in a large family she is all about family values and morals.
Wren’s friends and family will agree she is never far from a pen and paper as she finds so many things in the world peak her interest and can inspire an entire story.
For most of her life Ryen Cardona has known exactly who she is and what responsibilities her future holds. She welcomes them, revels in them. To the outside world Ryen Cardona is a confident, intelligent acquisitions agent for the European Arts Council, traveling between Europe’s most famous museums, collecting pieces, and planning fundraisers, but at the end of the day that life is a ruse. Ryen Cardona is a witch, quite possibly the most powerful witch the world has seen, but most people don’t even know that witches, real witches, with powers, exist. But Ryen isn’t just any witch. She’s the Maiden of the Universal Coven, the ruling body of all witches, and the one thing she despises and fears more than anything is vampires.
Cash Di Marco, unwilling heir to a centuries old Italian estate, is successful in his own right. He has defied his powerful mother to become a rising night club mogul. Loved by the paparazzi, he shamelessly enjoys all of the perks of being the epitome of a playboy bachelor. Providing him with fresh conquests each night, his business also offers an endless supply of blood, a necessity for Cash since he is also a vampire. Cash dreams of owning night clubs around the world to where not only the unknowing human patrons flock, but also where his vampire clientele can drink discreetly and safely.
Fate interferes with the plans they have for their lives when Cash and Ryen’s paths cross. Both of their lives are turned upside down as beauty and chaos unfold
Just a little note – this book does end in a cliffhanger, so it’s a good thing book two is out!
The genre of Fantasy is not my usual go-to and wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I started reading this book. Holy cow was I in for a ride! The story of Ryen Cardona (a witch) and Cash Di Marco (a vampire) had me sitting on the edge of my seat!
I absolutely love Ryen and Cash and the fact that fate has decided that these two characters need to be soul mates. But, can they?
Ryen Cardona is a witch and just not a witch, she is the Maiden of the Universal Coven and she hates vampires! A relationship is not something that is on her radar at the moment. She has a busy schedule being an acquisitions agent by day, most powerful witch by night!
Cash Di Marco is a night club mogul/playboy trying not get caught up in his family fortune and duties. Witches are not really his thing…except to maybe grab a “bite” from.
The book is packed with intrigue and romance, witches and vampires! Love, love, love the push and pull between Ryen and Cash! Their story is full of passion and pain, love and hate!
And the ending! Please….you cannot leave us hanging like that! Good thing book two is out or I would be in a total book hangover!
Growing up in rural Central Iowa, where the closest neighbor was at least 1/2 a mile down the gravel road and her brothers being 7 & 10 years older, gave Kristine plenty of opportunities to use and hone her imagination. From acting out stories with her Barbies, to pretending she was being held captive and guarded by vicious dogs (aka puppies her dad raised), she found ways to entertain herself.
Now she is living in the sprawling metropolis of Cedar Rapids, spending her days teaching high school Spanish and her nights being a wife and mother to a son and furry children. Somewhere she finds a little time here and there to write. Much to her husband’s irritation, her imagination still steals her away to daydreaming about her characters and future stories.
Kristine LOVES reading. She has been reading supernatural/paranormal genres since second grade. Her friends force her to read other genres from time to time, but she prefers a little darkness in her stories. Some of her favorite authors include L.J. Smith, Jeaniene Frost & I.T. Lucas.
The Fortuna Dare Society: a Book Club for Men. What happens at book club doesn’t necessarily stay at book club.
Welcome to Fortuna, Texas where the men are dared to love as big as they live. The men of widower Brad Davidson’s book club, the Fortuna Dare Society, are dared to act out a trope, setting, and character with a significant other.
That poses a problem for Brad, who hasn’t had serious relationship in over twenty years.
He likes the town librarian, but it might not amount to anything more than a strange, costume-staged-musically-enhanced meal.
Then again, he married the last woman he went out of his way to date.

Brad: The Fortuna Dare Society Book Club Dare….
This is a great short read. This book club is mostly men. They asked a few women to join. Brad is one of the guys. Ophelia is a librarian they asked to join. I love the dare they gave Brad. Such an enjoyable book! From a True Fan… Pam James
Rochelle puts an artistic spin on everything she does but there are two things she fails at miserably:
1. Cooking (seriously, she can burn water)
2. Sewing (buttons immediately fall back off)
She loves baking and makes a mean BTS (Better than Sex) cake. When in observation mode she is quiet, however, her mouth is usually open with an encouraging glass-is-half-full pun or, quite possibly, her foot.
She is a Bearcat, a Buckeye, an interior decorator, and fluent in sarcasm.
In 2008, when her youngest entered Kindergarten, she decided to get the stories out of her head. Midway through her first novel, hurricane Ike (yes, a hurricane in Ohio) rendered the laptop useless with a nine-day power outage. She didn’t give up, but continued to pursue her dream.
Every November Rochelle takes on the challenge of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo.org) where she endeavors to write 50,000 words in thirty days. You can often hear her cheering the Dayton area Wrimos (those who join her in this crazy pursuit).
Rochelle shares her home with a big black cat, an itty-bitty orange tiger kitty, her daughter, her son, and her Prince.
She loves to connect with readers. You can find her on Facebook (search for Author Rochelle Bradley), Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Author, Cassidy Nixon hides in her stories. It’s much easier than feeling anything real for anyone other than her family.
Interested in attending the Harvest Pick and Read writer’s convention, Cassidy, her brother Darren, and his wife Sam set out on the long drive to the event.
The first stop starts off with a bang, when Cassidy runs headfirst into a handsome stranger. And for the first time in a long while, Cassidy is taken with this hardheaded stranger that she will never see again. Or will she?
She runs into this handsome man a second time and thinks its just coincidence.
When he shows up at the same event in the room next door, Cassidy thinks he’s a stalker. But he convinces her he isn’t.
All Cassidy had to worry about was the safety of her raccoons while she was gone.
Such a cute story. I would have liked a bit more details, but I really enjoyed this short story. Cassidy is an author on a road trip to a book event. She is with her brother and SIL. They keep running into Jack on the way. It is a very amusing tale. I really loved the raccoons. Since I go to several book events a year, I was intrigued by this book. I may be watching others to look for more romance now…. Pam James

Writing was never on my radar until my son asked me to help him write a book. After helping him I decided to give it a try. That was when Opalla was born.

Please do yourself a favor and get this book. ***Warning Snorting and Crying are a possible effect from reading this book!*** It is fantastic! From a Forever Fan… Pam James

A grisly murder…a Dom with plenty to lose. My name is Jordan Caldera, and that’s me, the Dom with everything to lose. Yes, I hated the woman who threatened to expose the passionate BDSM lifestyle I share with my wife, Angel. But contrary to what the evidence implies, I didn’t kill her and my alibi is solid. Unfortunately, I was indulging a few powerful clients, administering to their dark desires, and they would sooner see me imprisoned than to publicly reveal their misunderstood cravings. My choices are simple-put my life and high-profile career at risk by exposing the truth or go to jail for a crime I didn’t commit.

Oh what a way to end this series! Jordan has secrets he’s keeping from his Angel. But he’s doing it out of misguided love. When the news breaks that the wanna be journalist, is not only writing their story but plans to out them, is murdered, Jordan has reason to worry. Will he and Angel be torn a part? Luckily Jordan finds support in unlikely places, from unlikely people. But can’t count on the people he was protecting. The entire series is spectacular, the final story ties it all together perfectly!
For 25 years, I’ve worked as a sports writer. I decided now was the time to pursue romance fiction as an author. I found a great group of RWA author friends who have helped me tremendously.
I get great support from my husband, and although they don’t know it, my three parrots and dog give me a huge boost everyday.

Review by WOTRmomma Julia with permission from her daughter Madi
They’ve known each other forever, and there seems to have always been a spark, which both deny. But Hyacinth has found out there will be a Prince in attendance at a Ball she’s being made to attend, and has decided she will be a Princess! Rhys works for the government and is assigned to follow the Prince. But Hyacinth and Rhys seem to keep crossing paths, and with each encounter, some to realize that they don’t actually hate each other. When the Prince’s nefarious plans are discovered, will Rhys save the day? I found this to be a quick, witty and endearing story!

In book eight of the Steel MC Montana Charter: Sarah ‘Topaz’ Cardell had been with the Steels in Montana from the start, moving up from the New Mexico Charter with other Hoez to be there for the men.

Will she allow herself to find out who Onyx really is? And if she does will she be ready to meet the man he is?

The men, women, and children of the Steel MC welcomed him with open arms and no judgment even when it came to his limited mobility. That is, all but one.
When a private argument between Topaz and Onyx turns into a kidnap and torture by a group set on taking over the country, the past will be revealed and true emotions emerge. Can Topaz and Onyx put any hard feelings aside and save themselves from their abductors? And will the true desires bubbling under the surface change both their worlds?
Review by WOTRMomma Julia with permission by her daughter Madi
Steel Mc: Montana Charter Book 8 is a sign of the current times. It’s heartbreaking and redeeming. Sarah “Topaz” Cardell moved to the Montana Chapter 10 years ago as one of the HOEZ. She is a Manager of the Bar/Restaurant and sometimes stripper. She sleeps with whatever man wants her, but she’s sunk to new lows and now wants something different for her life. But she can never go home again. Dallas “Onyx”King an ex-cop who was injured, moved to Montana with his best friend, where he found acceptance and welcome, which he never expected as a Black Man. Since he arrived Topaz has avoided him, and when she couldn’t, she was rude and nasty to him. After a year of this Onyx finally pulled her outside to have it out, where they were abducted. Onyx was beaten and Topaz was drugged, coming to in a cabin. Neither knowing why they were there, until their captors returned. Seems they were from a white supremacist group. Even the children on the ranch weren’t safe. But when things escalated for Onyx, Topaz shuts down. What Onyx perceived as prejudice, was so much more. These two had to work their way through a lot of doubts and events. I really, really loved this story!

Tanner-
She was beautiful.
Loved.
Strong.
After hiding away for six months with just my dog to keep me company, I was forced out of the shadows only to end up in the arms of an enemy.
Beatrix Lister saved my life. I had been taking care of myself for so long, I didn’t know how to ask for help, but she refused to go down without a fight.
She was warm where I was frigid.
She was kind and caring where I was a cold-blooded monster.
I did things to survive.
I battled the evils of the world to live.
I didn’t deserve her heart but fell in love with her anyway.
As much as I wanted to be with her, I needed answers and I would do anything to get them.
Even if it meant breaking the heart of the only woman I had ever loved.
~
-Bee-
He was lonely.
Intense.
Brave.
Tanner Horsch came into my life unexpectedly. He was like a tornado, ripping up everything in its path.
There was something about him that I craved.
His touch. His words. His need to survive.
But as we were getting to know each other, he still had walls up.
He refused to let me in knowing my family didn’t approve of him.
I refused to let him go.
After being in the wrong place at the wrong time, he escaped and eventually he ran right into my arms.
He was the villain of someone else’s story, but he was the hero of mine.
I just prayed that he could see that not all monsters are truly evil.
Before it was too late, and he gave himself to the enemy.
My family.

While the story is a stand alone, I loved how it tied up loose ends for another couple, Tanner had a horrible past, that he finally had someone he could trust enough to share with, no judgement, not pity. just there for him!
