A Standalone Romantic Comedy

UNTAMABLE-customdesign-AUG2017-smallpreview

Emery Matheson knows p*ssies. Cats, that is. As the star of a reality show called The P*ssy Tamer, it’s his job to fix extreme feline behavioral issues.
 
When he hears about his next project—a lonely cat hoarder named Estelle—he expects a little old widow, not the blond bombshell who opens the door.
 
With a 100 percent success rate, Emery has never had trouble finishing a job. But just a few hours into the first day of filming and one thing is clear—Estelle and her band of misfit p*ssies will give him a run for his money… and his heart.

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

I can’t even…I am not sure where to begin with this book.  I sat down the night it popped on my kindle and thought “Hey I will jump in and get a few chapters under my belt”.  Uhm yeah, I just finished the book.  I have been snickering and belly laughing while reading this book.  #TooFunny #LoveThePuns  I am so not a cat person but the book title, blurb and especially the cover made me need to read this.  I mean the cat on the cover is hilarious!!!  I can’t even with the cats names…TOOO FREAKING FUNNY!!!!

The book is about Emery the hottie Cat Tamer who meets a what he thought would be a crazy old wrinkled cat hoarder who turns out to be a smoking hot slightly unhinged cat hoarder…LOL  Emery is sent to try and help Estelle with her pussy problems.

Estelle is stunned stupid at how hawt and…holy crap…. genuine he really is. She expected Mr. Hollywood but is getting a good, caring guy.    The banter between the two was so funny.  I also loved how the two were so afraid to face their real feelings so they used humor to cover things up but once the hearts were opened, it was too late.  They were both gonners and scared outta their minds about the “What If’s” for what a long-distance relationship could look like.

The final chapter and the epilogue were great.  They were the perfect mix of hilarious comedy and heartfelt emotional strings.

#WOTR18 – #Review – The Veiled Path to Destiny by Jolanthe Aleksander

The Veiled Path to Destiny

 

If she had never been at a crossroad before, Daria found herself at one now.

With one foot in the distant past, the other remains firmly entrenched in the present. Daria tries to come to terms with the memories of her previous life as they inundate her mind on an endless loop. Can she deal with the past and find a way to walk the path that is laid out for her future? Is she brave enough to face her destiny, or will she walk away?

Iauron has his Queen back…or does he? His is aware of Daria’s lingering doubts about him as she tries to retain her humanity in the face of remembering and accepting who she once was. Though the main threat to her life is temporarily incapacitated, he knows it cannot, and will not, remain that way forever.

Not fully Verisiel nor Daria, is she strong enough to meet the coming threat head on? Can she come into her powers and stand by his side? Can he let her go if she cannot accept the whole truth of her situation?

Big questions remain with few answers in sight, and time is running out.

 

Goodreads

 

An amazing heartfelt book. This story is about the illusion of time and how this luxury can be easily taken away. Daria has been whisked away to the fae realm. She has been told she is Veriseil, the fae queen and she struggles with this day in and day out. She has always been an independent woman and feels like she is drowning in this new world and life. She has no say in this and it wrecks her emotionally. Iauron, the fae king, is ecstatic that he has found his queen. But how does he show her that he loves Daria and not just Veriseil. There is a delicate push and pull between the characters that becomes intense at times. And low and behold…the bad guy is still out there and will stop at nothing to bring down the fae queen. And what happens when you mess with fate? Karma comes back tenfold to all involved. This is truly a wonderful story of true love….and new love. A beautiful follow up to Beyond the Veil of Whispered Dreams. I can’t to see what Jolanthe Aleksander comes up with next!

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

Jesus this book!  I am pretty sure I need to go to church and maybe read up on some passages.  Maybe go and take communion????  I mean Holy Hell!!

Lawd was it crazy!  Lawd was it hot! Lawd am I scared of these ladies’ imaginations!!  LAWD did we learn some important things.  But can we talk about the bad people for a second??  DUDE so creepy. Like you ladies are making me nervous to meet in real life!!

It seems we find out who the crazy captor is in the story.  We see the back story on Noah and Ivy’s “friendships”.  We also see the crazy, jealous person who is the one causing all the pain for our couple.

We being to see Ivy putting it all together.  She is also finally admitting she is in fact in love with Noah which takes him by surprise because well she was a little late to the game so it seems.  Everyone knew they wore in love except Ivy had trouble believing it since Noah wore his dead fiancée’s necklace for so long….until just recently that it!!

This book is a step in the “we are gonna get free and kill some people”.  Ivy and Noah are starting to study their surroundings to figure out how to save themselves and kill whoever is behind this!  Vengeance will be theirs!!

#BLOGTOUR – Beg, Borrow or Steal by Susie Tate

  Title: Beg, Borrow or Steal
By: Susie Tate

Publication Date: Sept 28, 2017
Genre: Contemporary Romance
#begborroworstealtour

Jamie is proud of everything he’s achieved. A consultant anaesthetist and the Medical Education Director – he’s a pretty big deal. So when one of his medical students falls asleep, right in the middle of a tutorial, he is furious. He’s a bloody good teacher, damn it!

Maybe he could have been a little more understanding. Maybe he didn’t have to try and humiliate her. But the shock of how beautiful this particular student was when she finally opened her eyes, and his inappropriate reaction, only fuelled his anger. He’s tired of lame excuses from wild party animals burning the candle at both ends, and he’s going to make an example of this one.

For Libby, pride is a luxury and beauty is currency. Pregnant at seventeen and an aspiring doctor, she couldn’t afford to be proud, so she cashed in on her looks instead. She will beg, borrow or steal to achieve her dreams and give her daughter the life she deserves, even if she has to forgo sleep – even if she has to leave her dignity behind.

Only now that she’s not just sitting in lecture theatres like her first two years of medical school, now that she’s working in a real hospital, Libby is realizing that the thread she’s been hanging onto for so long may be about to snap. The last thing she needs is to have riled the gorgeous, judgmental Head of Medical Education. But there’s only so far you can push yourself, only so much pressure you can be under until you break. Libby’s been on that cliff edge for a while; her health may just tip her over.

A kick in the shin from a gorgeous little four-year-old girl and a confrontation with her tearful, exhausted mother soon forces Jamie to see what a bastard he’s been. Libby may not accept his help, but he’s relentless when he wants something, and it’s not long before he realizes that this mother and daughter belong with him. So when a stag night he’s on ends up in the best strip club in England and he sees who the main attraction is, his reaction is explosive.

Despite everything, Libby finds she still has some pride left. This man has made her feel small twice now. He won’t be getting a third shot. No matter how gorgeous he is, no matter how persistent …

This book is a full-length contemporary romance of approximately 90,000 words with no cliffhanger and its own HEA.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader’s Copy of this book.

OMG!!! I love that we get another glimpse into Coby and Brogan’s relationship. I knew that coming back from what they’d been through was going to be rough, but I really didn’t know just how rough.
You can tell how much that these two love each other just by what they are willing to do to move on from the past.
Seeing Coby mingling with the guys from Corps Security is awesome, it’s almost as if he belongs.
I am absolutely amazed at what it is that really pulls Coby back from the abyss, yes Brogan loves him and yes she does everything in her power it get him there, but this one thing is what really does it and makes the two of them whole again. I swear I was crying.
Damn you Walker, Novellas are suppose to make you cry!!!
Once again I will say how wonderful Walker did writing her characters into Harper Sloan’s Corps Security World!!

#Review – Eluding Illusions by Wren Michaels

Eluding Illusions

 

Emma Banciu dreams about her novels taking on a life of their own. Thanks to a centuries old Gypsy curse, they tend to do just that. Writing with pen and paper she brings things to life, and hell hath no fury like an antagonist scorned. Now she’s on the run from Kyrin, an evil demon warlord who surfaced from one of her first manuscripts. And the only way to get rid of him is to destroy the manuscript.

Enter JG1988, her long-time online friend. He knows nothing of the curse nor the magick Emma possesses. His only wish is to finally meet her in person and take their relationship to the next level. He reveals a surprise of his own when he shows up at Emma’s door as international recording artist Jake Griffin.

After their first date is interrupted by Kyrin, Emma resorts to magick to save their lives. Destroying the manuscript will not only get rid of Kyrin, but also end her relationship with Jake. But keeping secrets from him may end up doing just that. In order to survive they’ll resort to love, lies, and a little Gypsy magick.

 

Goodreads

 

This brings storytelling and reading to a whole new level. And this story has a little bit of everything from the forbidden love, the ex, crazy family, demons, and magick! What’s there not to love?! This shows true writers block at it’s finest. Emma is plagued with a curse and what she writes on pen and paper come to life. Now, if she could just complete the story. This is where the problem lies. The story goes unfinished and the characters become independent. But this story has so many twists and turns right down to how her ex, her true love, and the demons come into her life. Oh, and lets not forget the crazy family she has…we all have that crazy aunt, right? Emma has a lot on her shoulders. Trying to figure out she can be happy but she is faced with decisions that could potentially put mankind in danger. Constantly faced with the gypsy curse, running for her life, and being loved has her in a very difficult position. The author does not leave you wanting. It starts out with a fight and ends the same way. Completely action packed with the right amount of hawtness! Don’t elude this book!

Goodreads

 

*I received this book in exchange for an honest review**

Numb is anything but Numb. I can’t even begin to start with how this book makes me feel. This author knows how to provoke some of the strongest emotions from you. I am not a crier but I absolutely recommend have tissues on standby…I may or may not have shed a few tears. This is INTENSE! That is all the warning I will give you.

The light in my darkness. The innocence to my madness.

Dale and Max were pregnant. Dale was a major d-bag to Max and Max lost their baby. While Max is coping with the loss of their child Dale is in a coma from a gunshot wound. Max is crumbling inside and fueled with rage and hate for Dale but has this undeniable pull to Dale. Her attraction to Dale is making her insane and mad at herself. Dale comes to and can’t remember the bad things with Max. But he can’t figure out how to show Max how sorry he is. He hates himself for causing her so much pain and the loss of their baby. All the while the “Organization” is still out there and the ring leader is still at large and wreaking havoc. Just wait for twist! OMG!!!

The sheer intensity of the love/hate relationship that Max and Dale have is overwhelming….and HAWT! The characters will attach to you and you will feel like you are part of the story. Many times I found myself yelling at the characters to just see the light! But we know how well that works, lol!

This is an absolute must read and I feel like Numb is one of the most intense of the series. Get ready for a wild ride!!!!
