#WOTR20 #SeriesStarter #Review #FreeKU – Being Nobody (Witness #1) by Heather D’Agostino

Being Nobody (Witness, #1)

Samantha Connelly has been on the run since she was seven years old. Forced into Witness Protection after her father saw something he shouldn’t has caused her to learn to blend in. She’s moved, changed her name, and her appearance more times than she can count over the last nineteen years all along wondering if it will ever end. Her handler, Kevin, along with her parents have assured her that it won’t be forever, but as the years tick by she’s slowly given up hope that she’ll ever be normal.

Now at 26, Sam has moved to Chicago and is working at the Rusty Nail as a bartender calling herself Mallory. Her father passed away two years before leaving her to finish what he started…put away the ‘bad guys’. Living on the run in hiding has been harder than she ever imagined, and finding love has always been out of the question. Who would want to be with someone they couldn’t be honest with? She’s resigned herself to being alone, until… Brian walks in.

Brian Sellers is everything Sam has been trying to avoid her entire life. He’s clad in leather and torn jeans, donning several tattoos… all-in-all a bad boy. When their eyes connect one evening, everything she’s ever told herself falls to the wayside as an indescribable draw pulls her to him. He’s sexy and domineering, and something about him reminds her of a boy she used to know.

The more time she spends with Brian, the more she wants him, but…Brian is not everything he seems to be. When Sam happens to see the tat on his wrist, the same tat that her father saw all those years ago, she realizes she’s flirting with the enemy. Brian has no idea that he’s hanging out with the one girl his boss wants dead.

Can Sam hide her identity from the first man she’s had real feelings for? What will Brian do when he finds out who she really is? Can love really conquer all?

Being Nobody is the first book in The Witness series.

I was lucky to beta read this for the author and offer an honest review.

I fell in love with this author reading her Shattered Series. I love that dynamics she builds with her characters. I love that she can weave a story and get you completely and utterly hooked and then *BOOM* lowers the bomb and leaves you screaming at her….yup that is what I did! I emailed her and was all shouty capsing her about this book!! I will say that she DID give me a spoiler for the next book because I MAY or MAY NOT(not denying or confirming) have threatened her with bodily injury!! LOL

So this book is a new venture for our author. She is stepping outside of her comfort zone and is writing a new series/genera. I will even say that the sex was a little bit hotter in this book too!!! *wink* Mallory aka Sam is hiding from the drug dealers who her dad testified against. The family went into the Witness Protection until the bad guys could be found. Well our Mallory has lived several lives and has had multiple personalities because the bad guys keep catching up with her family. Well her new cover is Mallory, bar tender in a locals only kinda bar. Well a hottie biker strolls in and Mallory is allll for the one night stands. She fell in love once and due to her family and their predicament, she had to leave this love of her life. Sooo no attachments, just sex is her motto. Well our hottie biker is kinda involved in bad stuff. Mallory learns that he is involved with THE BAD GUYS she is running from……yikes!!!

Our girls is freaking out. If she tells the Witness people, she will be jet setted off to another life in less than 24 hours. But she is starting to fall for our tall, dark, drink of water biker with a heart of gold. Brian is everything you could want in a boyfriend…well except for working for drug dealers that is!! LOL

The story is so solid and woven together then when we the reader start to put the pieces together it is to late….The author drops the boom and leaves us SCREAMING!!!!!

I will say, if you like a little spicy/naught fun, some suspense, hot biker, sassy female character, then this is a jackpot for you the reader!! But be warned, you will be SCREAMING at the author and you may or may not *wink* want to email her with death threats too

#WOTR19 #NewRelease #Review – Sands of Time by H. D’Agostino

Kaitlyn Hughes always wanted to run her own bakery. After attending culinary school in Paris, she began working under one of the best chefs in the business and fell in love. Life was perfect, or so she thought.
When her parents ask her to come home for the holidays, she decides to take a much-deserved vacation with support and encouragement of her boss.
Five years away does something to you. It messes with your memory and makes you believe that you don’t miss the things that you do. You don’t realize it until it’s too late.
When Kaitlyn unexpectedly runs into Eli Baker, the one she left behind, all bets are off. Promises are forgotten. What ifs roar to life, and what seemed like a dream soon becomes a nightmare.
Does absence really make the heart grow fonder? How much are you willing to give up for true love?

***Home for the Holidays is included in this book. This is the continuation of Eli and Kaitlyn’s story.***

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

Oh Eli!!  I have waited and waited for your book.  I loved getting to see the man whore FINALLY getting his girl.  Home for the Holidays was just a tease novella for me.

Kait and Eli have been through so much in the novella and now, the when the story picks up in this book, it just gets even harder for their HEA.  So many issues they have to deal with and overcome.

Kait and Eli need to rediscover who they once were and who they are now plus deal with the issues of her leaving and marrying another man.  Eli needs to tell Kait the truth about the man he was when she wasn’t around because those actions cause issue for them in the novel.

Eli makes huge grand gestures to prove to Kait he is the one for her and she is the one for him They both need to see the other for who the are and what they need to do to finally secure their happy life.

The epilogue made my heart happy. We get some loose ends tied up and more of the HEA is told.  It was a really sweet 2nd or even 3rd chance love story between soul mates.

Shattered by Heather D'Agostino

Ever wonder what it’s like to have it all? Leah Carmichael didn’t. She had the world at her fingertips in the form of a dream. Everything thing she could ever want was in her grasp.

At what cost are you willing to have this life? Would you give up the life you have to pursue it? Your family? Friends? What about the one who holds your heart?

What if something comes along and takes it all away? Would you survive the devastation? What happens when you realize you gave up everything you had to have it all taken away in a moment? Will it leave you broken? Or will it shatter you?

Goodreads

I received this complementary copy from the author .

WOW!! and UGH!! The anxiety I felt over this couple was pretty thick and intense. Leah and Nick were childhood sweethearts. Nick gave up alot of option in his life to stay and be with Leah in hopes of them being together forever. Leah on the other hand, ran the first chance she had to train for the US Olympic team. Do you blame her? NO but she didnt think to talk to Nick before making the choices. She presumed her would just follow her…guess what? He didn’t.

Fast Forward 5 years and Leah’s life is a mess. She isn’t an Olympic athlete anymore, her mom is sick and she is back home….afraid of seeing HIM!! Well lemme tell ya when they see each other the chemistry was THICK and sizzling. I was glad Nick and Leah didn’t fight the attraction very long but sad that Leah kept pushing the amazing man away when she needed to lean on him during some tragedy….Sigh…have I mentioned Nick IS the perfect ALPHA MALE!!??

So all is going well when Nick gets the chance to move and make something big for THEM but all Leah sees is he is leaving her. I have to admit I loved her best friend Avery calling her out abouthow bad it sucks to be left behind…Karma right? Well Leah is ready to work on it with Nick and she ………………………………………oh snap you think I am gonna tell??? Heck no!! You gotta read this lettle gem yourself!! Trust me you will be a mess after.

#WOTR19 #NewRelease #Review #TeachingCayden #CollegeRomance #CaydenSutter #StandaloneWithinASeries #OneClick #NewAdultRomance- Teaching Cayden , Sutter Family Series book 4 by H. D’Agostino

Cover Design by Pink Ink Designs.

As the youngest member of the Sutter family, Cayden was always known as ‘the smart one’. Meeting women and playing football might have been his family’s thing, but not his. He was on track to graduate and pursue a degree in physics until he met his nemesis, math.

Addison Porter is a math genius and studies in the same spot of the library every day, that is until one day when her seat is taken. Never being one to back down, she orders the squatter to move. When he offers to share the spot instead, she reluctantly agrees. After noticing her extensive text book collection in mathematics, Cayden asks for help.

What started out as a simple request soon turns into so much more as Addison hides her identity. Not knowing anything about the woman, Cayden goes on a mission to find her, one that lasts for over a year.

What happens when he finds her? Does she have a reason to remain anonymous? Has Cayden finally met the one who will change his plan for the future?

Teaching Cayden is the fourth book in The Sutter Family Series. Join Nick, Cam, and the rest of the gang as we go back to Wilmington one final time.

Goodreads

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

 

Oh Cayden!!!  You were always the quiet one so finally getting to know you was awesome!!  I love the Sutter Family so another kiddo to read about was A-OK with me.

Addison….hrmmmm…you’re a tough nut to crack.  I gotta admit I wasn’t sure you were worthy of my sweet, non-man whoring Sutter but I was so happy to see you prove me wrong as the story proceeds.

Cayden starts college and meets a hot, smart women in the library. She becomes like a dream girl and he searches for her wile he is in college.  When he finally finds her, she is his TA and she is just as stunned stupid over seeing this guy again but ugh she has to be hands off.

The couple try to stay away but when you feel that vibe you just can’t ignore it.  Between her job and her brother, who happens to be one of Caden’s frat brothers, it seems they had some found a groove until Addy’s hot and cold started to make my head spin.  I mean what the heck…baggage city!

As the couple finds there way they have to hide their relationship and secrets always end up causing big trouble when they are found out….!!!!

The epilogue…..shut up!!  If you love BOTH Sutter Series, you will love love love the ending of this book.  We get to see everyone and catch up with everyone.  It made my heart so happy!!

When and Why did you start to write?

In 2012 I started writing as a fanfiction writer. I published my first full length novel in 2013. I found my love of reading again, and I wanted to try my hand at writing.

What authors do you always read or suggest to others?

T. Torrest, J. Sterling, K. Bromberg, Aleatha Romig, Gail McHugh, K. Linde, and the list goes on…

What is the most surprising thing you have found out with the writing process?

The writing part is the easiest. I’m a pantser, and that’s the only part of my life that I can do on a whim. I must plan everything else out. My characters control my writing. It’s the only time I let go. I must be in control with everything else, it’s a character flaw. LOL

What are you working on now?

Secret project. Shhh I can’t give any details yet. My betas don’t even know the deets. I just finished book 3 in my Sutter Family Series and I have plans for a spinoff on the Broken Series to start this summer.

When writing are you a pantser or plotter?

I’ve always known what I was meant to do… surf. I’ve spent practically every day in the water since I was six searching for the green room. This is where I met my best friend, Ryan. We’ve been inseparable for the better part of our lives. He has always ‘just a friend’, and I am ok with that.

As time passed, our friendship evolved into what I thought could be love, only to be tested. A chance to go pro, to find the green room, was right within my grasp. I had a choice to make… Ryan or the future I’d only dreamt about?

#WOTR18 #NewRelease #Review ##TrustingYou #TheSutterFamilySeries #AaronAndMel #ComingSoon #OneClick #NewAdult – Trusting You, The Sutter Family Series Book 2 by H.D’Agostino @hdagostino001

Trusting You (The Sutter Family #2)

I had a plan… Go to college, get good grades, start fresh. I knew I’d have a clean slate, and I could be anyone. I was right on track until I spent the summer with my roommate, Emma.

Aaron Sutter was everything I told myself to stay away from… a player, smooth talker, and sexy as hell. He was not part of the plan. Girls fought for just a minute of his attention, and would pretty much do anything to get it. I swore I would never be one of them, but Aaron and my heart had other plans.

It’s funny how the heart works. It doesn’t see the pain coming its way. It doesn’t understand that one moment could change everything. One crack could destroy the very foundation that it’s balancing on. Aaron was that crack for me. He pushed inside, wrapping himself around my soul and never letting go. I wanted to let him in, but was he ready for the past I worked so hard to escape from?

Trusting you is the second book in The Sutter Family series.

Trusting You by H D’Agostino

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

Oh man oh man!!  Aaron, Aaron, Aaron!!  The player got tamed for sure in this book.

In Em’s book we see Aaron and Mel getting a close.  Mel is warned that Aaron isn’t a settle down kinda guy but Mel just can’t turn away until…….well if you read the 1st book then  you know what he did.  *Shakes my finger at Aaron*

Aaron is the god time guy.  He loves his role as the hot lifeguard.  He gets any girl he wants but he is drawn to Mel for some reason.  When he screws up, he is desperate to find a way AKA Beg Em and Brock for help to get his girl.

Mel was devastated by what Aaron did to her and will not fall for ANOTHER player.  She puts up a lot of walls because players have ruined her life and she will not fall for that line again.  Mel is dedicated to school and her family at home.  She loves Em but she has a big secret that she keeps close.  She has to graduate.  She has to take care of her and her business.

When Aaron starts to beg and grovel, Mel begins to crack.  She wants to have what he might actually be offering but when Aaron lays his cards out on the table, Mel flips out!!!

When the secrets are told and the revelations are made, we see our couple come to THE make or break point!!

The epilogue was great…..the build-up for Ryan’s book looks awesome.  But there was one little scene in the epilogue that made my heart beat a bit.  When Aaron realizes all that Cam did for him out of love…sigh………yeah I loved that guy even more.

I totally loved seeing the “old gang” for the Shattered series.  They are still keeping it lively in the bedroom much to their children’s distain…LOL  Sorry not sorry Aaron!!
