Ever feel like your entire life has been planned out for you before you were even born?

As the only girl in the Sutter family and daughter of an ‘almost Olympian’, my parents have always had goals for me. I never questioned them and always strived to be the best. I thought I knew what I wanted in life until I didn’t.

One mistake, and the straight path I had planned was suddenly crooked. Goals that I’d worked for since I was little didn’t seem so important anymore; And the one place I never thought I’d go back to was the only place I wanted to be… home, where I found comfort in the most unlikely place.

At six years my senior, Brock Foster has always been unattainable. He was the boy that filled my fantasies. I resigned myself years ago to never feel his touch, never know what his kisses were like, or to have him wrap me in his arms. I never thought when I came home that he would still be there, or that he’d remember me.

Sometimes the future that we think we want isn’t what we need. Sometimes those bumps and turns mold us into who we were always meant to be, and sometimes they lead us to who we should have always been with.

Brock Foster helped me to embrace my path. He taught me to stop and catch the raindrops, and open myself to love again.

I received this book for an honest review.

Oh boy Nick Sutter there is a new Alpha in town.  Who cares that he is a former student, good friend and trusted member of your football staff…he is going to become you enemy to the 100^th degree!!!  Ok it’s not THAT serious but when a man makes a play for your baby girl……daddy isn’t going to like it or him very much!!  Yeah can you tell I loved seeing Nick get so fired up and having Leah there to “talk him off the ledge” so to speak!!??

Emma Sutter loved Brock for as long as she can remember but given there was a 5 year age gap there was no way anything was going to happen plus it’s not like he thought of her that way.

Brock Stone always was drawn to Emma but she was hands off for 2 reasons : her age and her daddy!!

When Emma is in college but returns for the summer the two have a chance meeting.  He knew her right away but she wasn’t so sure.  The chemistry is there and crazy thick.  They start sneaking around behind old dad’s back.  Brock and Emma are falling fast and hard but the sneaking around is wearing Brock down.  When Emma is about to come clean to her folks about Brock, her past comes crashing down hard all around her.  Secrets she never wanted told are revealed and she is left drowning.  Brock is a mess and confused.

This book makes my heart so happy but I am left confused….do I stay with Team Nick or do I jump on to Team Brock?  Any fan of the Shattered Series will be as excited as I was to read this book.  I loved revisiting all of my old favorites, plus seeing their kids grown up.  I can’t wait for Aaron and Ryan’s books because those boys…..especially Aaron are trying my nerves!!!!  Kick his butt Mel!!!

My favorite scenes : The letter Leah gives to Em…teary I tell ya annnd the Epilogue.  OMG Nick Sutter you are a trouble maker!!!

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

I loved the Sutter family so to be able to see their children grow and watch their parents struggle with the children’s decisions was amazing.  They are my family I feel what they feel.

Emma went away to college but is now home on summer break. Something happened that changed her but she is not saying what. She is keeping that secret locked up close to her heart. Emma wanted to get away forget the past go back to what she knows and loves her family. What she doesn’t expect it to fall for a man let a lone Brock Foster her first crush.

Brock Foster is back in his home town working for Nick Sutter when he runs into Emma Sutter his world is shifted.  He has feelings for Emma but with her age and her dad being Nick she has always been OFF LIMITS and even though they are older same rules apply since he now works for Nick. This has trouble written all over it.

I am Team Brock all the way he stole my heart after reading this one. I loved seeing Nick deal with his daughter and her issues. I also enjoyed meeting Emma’s best friend Melinda and cannot wait to see what is in store for her.  There were some great scenes in this book that had me crying and laughing. nick has not changed I don’t think he ever will, he will always be a kid at heart. I am so excited to read more about these Sutter kids. I have a feeling I will want to do harm to Aaron when his book comes out but somehow I think Mel will turn him around.

Memories that could begin to unwind my sanity the closer I get to solving this case.

I don’t have nearly enough glitter to pretty up this ugly mess…

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

GAH!!  I am so excited to get this installment of the serial.  Claudia totally killed me in the beginning parts of the serial so finally getting to see her with her men is going to make my heart happy.  The only think about this book I didn’t like…It needed to be LONGER!!  I wasn’t ready for the end!!

Claudia is totally in love with her maker Abraham but he doesn’t see her that way or does he?  She is uncovering some things about herself and her past that has been kept blocked from her mind.  We learn why and what she has blocked plus by whom.  I can’t wait for the continuation of this story.

Abraham and Diego are both mesmerized by the glitter queen aka Lucy’s bestie.  Both men want more from her then they are ready to admit to themselves but when Claudia starts to remember her past they will be there to help her.  Abraham is there because he is her maker but Diego is there because her memory will help his case!

I seriously can not wait for more from this series!!

I enjoyed this quick read. Grady and Emma were great although I wanted to give them both a good shake at times. Grady for letting a girl speak to and put down Emma the way she did. Emma for running away instead of talking to Grady. The insta attraction lust and love was burning hot. I enjoyed Emma and Grady’s story.

I have enjoyed all of Chelsea Camaron’s books so far and this was a great entertaining quick read. So picking this up was a great deal plus I absolutely loved the title.

Greer is the ultimate dad he gave up a lot to make sure his daughter was provided for and knew she had someone she could depend on. Greer has to deal with his daughter’s mother who only tries to squeeze every last penny from Greer and does not treat their daughter well.

Lia has had her eye on Greer for a while but with everything going on in his life he probably wouldn’t have time for her. Things change after a meeting in the local bar and a ride home that kiss changed everything.

I absolutely fell in love with Greer the way he treated his daughter and Lia was amazing. Lia was wonderful the way she took care of her niece and Greer’s daughter. I really would have loved more of Greer and his kind heart that is full of love for his girls. He works hard and loves harder.

I received this book for an honest review.

This series gets better and better. I enjoyed seeing Metclaf and Marissa’s story. This is a great love story of two people who came together, drifted apart, only to find their way back to one another.

Metcalf went through a dark patch in his life as he watched a man burn alive. Then his wife left him and moved away taking their son with him. He has his life back together with his ex-wife drops their son at his doorstep and arsons are starting back up again.  Metcalf now finds himself paired with Marissa to find out who is responsible for the arsons.

Marissa is a little leery of starting things with Metcalf. For starters they are now working together as a team on an assignment and two he left her once for his ex-wife. Will dealing with everything Metcalf has going on in his life and dealing with work be too much for Marissa? Will she stick it out or turn the other way?

I enjoyed the passion between these two and the love both of them had for Ashton. Being able to catch up with the other firefighters was a bonus. Marissa’s brother, Isandro, will learn to knock before entering his sister’s house from now on or he may get more than he bargained for…LOL. I loved Bulldogs overprotectiveness when it comes to Marissa but loved hi protectiveness over his best friend more.

I enjoy Brandy’s contemporary romance books just as much as her paranormal books.  She never lets me down her females are never weak and her males are alpha without being over the top. I am already ready for the next hot firefighter.

Favorite lines:

“Hey, like I said, don’t chew him up and spit him out and I’m fine with it.”

“Whatever, go back to your woman, Bulldog.”

———–

“What do I win?” she whispered.

“What do you want?” he murmured.

“A do-over.”

———–

“What do you want?”

He trailed his fingers along her tight abs. “This. You and me. Want to see what’s between us.”

Addie Jones was a woman with a plan. Or at least she had been until the manager she’d hired for her bakery embezzled all her funds and absconded to parts unknown. Now she’s facing ruin and her number one enemy, Math. With only a few short months left to turn her finances around, she needs to find a new slogan to live by. Her current catchphrase “Don’t make me math” simply won’t do.

Vaughn McAdams agreed to do a solid for his cousin and help her bestie recover from her recent financial losses. He hadn’t counted on Fate smacking him upside the head with a rolling pin, or the zany baker who now calls herself his boss. Her inability to balance a checkbook has him almost as frustrated as her insistence on keeping their relationship strictly professional.

Whenever they’re together, things start heating up, and it isn’t just the bakery ovens. Can Vaughn convince Addie there’s more to life than candies, cupcakes, and crumpets?

AHHH!!  Ok if you haven’t read anything by this author, you need too!  I am tellin’ ya.  Her characters crack me UP.  They are totally you and me.  They are flawed but perfect in their flaws.

This book I loved because we got to see character from her other books so it was awesome to catch up especially with the Zach and his lemon donut eating 8.5 month pregnant wife, Erica.  We also got to catch up with a few other characters from the other books as well.

This book is a quick but hilarious and sexy read about Addie and her hot knight in pie crust armor named Vaughn.  The banter between the two ….omg sooo funny.  They heat and chemistry was off the wall at times.  The back and forth, will they or wont they cross the “employee/employer” line had me going batty!!

The two have some issues with communication and reading the other wrong which can cause some trouble along with Mr. Hot Pie Crust trying to help when he should be butting out but all in all the couple climb a few mountains to be together.  It’s a super sweet read…but by sweet trust me when I say its super hawt and full of naughty fun!!  When you finish, this book be sure to grab the full-length novels from this author because you will LOVE them!!!!

I am enjoying this series and this book was about Luke and Jaz. We meet them in Must Love Loin’s Luke is Theo and Max best friend and Jaz is Theo’s little sister.

Luke and Jaz have flirted with each other for several years but both know that Jaz is off limits to Luke because she is Theo’s little sister and Luke is Theo’s best friend.  When Max’s dating app pairs them together they both decide its time to see here this will go.

Power Shift is back and trying to get to Max through his friends and now they have their sights on Jaz. Luke is having no part of it Jaz is his to protect and that is just what he will do.

Luke and Jaz have a great connection but will the Power Shift and her brother have something to say about it? I cannot wait to read the next one.
