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

I jumped into Steve’s book and enjoyed every second of it. Every time I think I know my favorite warrior Teresa writes another book. Steve is Steve crazy, fun and doesn’t know when to shut his trap.

I loved watching Steve grow form a boy to a VC Warrior like no other. He is still his funny crazy self but now he has someone he is responsible for and he will not let her down.

Mira makes one heck of an entrance lets just say bullets were flying and lives were about to change. There is so much going on in this book between curses, revenge, spells and mates being brought together.

The connection Steve has with Mira and her family is heartwarming. Then to watch the Warriors have to deal with some stinky situation was hilarious. On a side note Daniel OMG I love him his cuteness and his serious side too. This little guy is going to be something special…oh what am I saying he already is something special. There was a conversation between Steve and Mira about rollercoasters and man did my mind get flooded with wonderful memories at the mention of Kings Island.

I loved watching Steve grow from the crazy kid to the VC Warrior. Don’t get me wrong he is still Steve and finds a way to still get into trouble but when his protector side shows he will take on anyone including his brothers. I cannot wait for Roman’s story there is just something about that whip slinging Cowboy.

A few of my favorites:

It must be his call in life to make people laugh because that’s when he felt his best, even if they were laughing at his expense.

With the past hour, something significant had happened, and for life of him, he couldn’t figure out what the hell it was. He felt off and didn’t like it.

Her heart quickened its pace, her stomach squeezing painfully at what would never be, and still, that picture right there was something she wanted more than she wanted her next breath.

Steve swore tight then and there he was going to make sure she did anything and everything she ever wanted to do. That would be his goal in life.

Sloan had given him a gun with a silencer on it. He had been practicing and was almost a dead shot like Jill. Though he couldn’t shoot the balls off an ant…yet.

Severin is a dominant jerk with a bad attitude. Minnow, the woman hired to curb his temper, has seen beyond his bastard nature and has become obsessed with the way he masters her.

She thinks she knows all of his secrets.

She’s wrong.

For years someone else has sought Severin’s mastery – a man she never suspected. When the situation implodes, she’s no longer sure where she stands.

New trouble reopens old wounds. Their unstable three-way relationship threatens to collapse. Will Severin’s submissives be able to save him from self-destruction, or will they need to abandon the man they love?

Warning: BDSM, dark themes. Character’s memories of prior abuse may trigger some readers.

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

So I am not going to lie and will totally admit that Sadists scare the ever loving crap outta me. I am sorry but this is a no pain kinda girl. Like I cry with a hang nail so yeah uhm no…..But this duets blurb and the covers made me beg and plead to read the first book. I finished reading it and was totally in love with a sadist. I have no clue how that even happened. When the ladies offered me book 2, I told my family I don’t care if they starve because I had a date with Sev, Ro and Min. I had to know what happened to my broken man and his 2 loves.

If you didn’t read book 1, then you can’t read any more. Nope sorry leave right the heck now. You gotta experience and fall in love with this broken, dominant alpha named Sev. You have to experience him and wanna throttle him like I did.

Book 2 starts literally right where book 1 ends…Sev, Min and Ro answering the door to find Sev’s long lost and very effed up little brother looking him in the eye. Seems the family got much worse after Sev’s forced departure from what we learn from Loic. Dude, I just wanted to cuddle the creepy guy with everything he lays out for Sev. But yeah then I remember he is creepy and kinda back away because..well…SEV and Ro.

Sev is a mess. He feels guilt for so many things…like why didn’t he go and help his family but he can’t really deal with any of that…because he has to deal with his love, Min but also with his other love Ro. Yeah like come on who wasn’t shocked and totally stoked for THESE scenes. I am with Min on that MM action #HAWT #More #DontStop

Our poly group have too learn a new dynamic…who is the boss of whom. Which sub is the top sub…fyi best banter with Ro and Min on that topic. But basically, they have too figure out a new Relationship. The 2 subs begin to doubt that they will be the one who can give Sev what he needs so we have too see the group struggle with that. But I loved that Sev KNEW. He is always afraid he isn’t a good Dom but he KNEW the instant his subs were lost or confused….dreamy sigh for dang sure! But him pushing his subs away made me get a bit angry at our hottie. Then him being a jackass at towards the end made me flip him off and I didn’t care if he was mad at me…he was being a DB to everyone!!

There is so much happening in this book…Sev doubting himself, the subs distracting their Dom, a creepy brother in the mix, family drama, love being expressed but the best part of the book for ME…the last chapter. To see Sev and all that he has been through and all the growth he has made….omg I want more. I am super greedy for this family.

Two writers in two countries transform into the super writing duo, Sparrow Beckett, each night after wrangling their housefuls of children and pets. They trade the cape and colorful tights for tattoos and cups of coffee then set out to create a world where readers fall in love with heroes and the women who willingly go to their knees for them. Their books are the products of two kinky minds who don’t take themselves too seriously.

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

Holy crap.  Steve grew up and totally manned up.  I mean I will admit I was excited but a little worried because we never see Steve as an alpha guy.  The joker? Totally! But the alpha?  So I was super excited to SEE the story that Teresa was writing for us diehard fans.  Man, Blown away.  Steve totally knocked my socks off.

So Steve in typical form is given grief by the other warriors when gunshots are going off AT THE COMPOUND!!  Now what fool would even think about shooting up the Warriors Compound?  A stupid one for sure!!  Steve is sent in the save a woman who was trapped in a car when he finds out she is in labor.  The two have an instant chemistry and Steve is super attached right away to helping this girl and her child.

Mira has some secrets and is hoping she can hide safely in the Warrior compound until the arrival of her baby.  When she meets Steve, she can feel the connection but can’t accept it because of her family drama.

The drama between the two is awesome.  The more Steve and Mira fall for each other the more you see Steve stand up in a Warrior Way.  I mean even the other Warriors were stunned stupid at this new Alpha Steve.

Their love story is written perfect.  Steve is Steve and he says stupid things but Mira loves him for it.  She gives him the love and care he has never had other than the respect and care he has found in the Warrior compound.

The side story of new trainees doesn’t go over very well and we actually have some internal fighting between Warrior brothers over the new recruits….yikes!!!

Favorite scene : any with Steve sticking his foot in his mouth with Slade….it happens a lot and you will love them.

Kady:

My life is a complete and utter disaster.
One major screw up after another.
In other words – I’m trouble.

I attempted college, but made a mess of that scene, too. Chalk it up to yet another disappointment in my parents’ ever-growing list of Kady failures.
Deciding I needed an escape from reality, my best friend and I flew off to Europe, where we were going to have the time of our lives.

The only problem with that plan is that I ran out of money after two weeks, and now I’m stuck in Florence, Italy with no means of getting home.

See? Trouble finds me wherever I go.

Gavin:
All I ever wanted to do was play basketball.
It’s all I’m good at.

I bypassed college and went straight to the pros. I’ve been playing overseas in Italy for six months, gaining fame, fans and having fun.
There’s only one problem. I miss home. I’m not too big to admit I’m homesick for my family and friends.

But that all changed when I heard from Cade Griffin, a former college hoops star. He called and asked me to rescue his sister, Kadence, who’s stranded and alone here in Florence.

Seems easy enough, right?

Except for the fact that Kady Griffin is gorgeous, completely off-limits and a sweet disaster waiting to happen all over my life.

***SWEET DISASTER is a standalone novel and the fourth in The Sweetest Thing series. It can be read on its own or enjoyed with the other books in the series.

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

This is a wonderful addition to this series. It can be read as a stand-alone but if you have read the others you know a little about Kady. She’s Cades little sister and one thing is sure she doesn’t care for basketball or players especially after spending her entire life have to watch Cade play. Kady is a free spirit loves doing things her way and in her time however this tends to land her in trouble.

Kady finds herself on a different continent with little money, no ID and no passport. She does the only thing she can she calls her big brother to help her out. Although not happy about it Cade calls in a favor to a teammate who’s brother is in Italy to help her until she can get her passport and ID. Little does she know when she meets Gavin what is in store for her.

Gavin is a chiseled ball player with a great of gold and has a funny side. When he agrees to do a solid for his brother’s friend by taking in his sister he realizes quickly he has got his hands full. To Gavin Kady is OFF LIMITS no way can they hook up. It would cause too much drama between his brother and Kady’s brother. However, the feisty fearless and sexy bombshell living in his apartment may have other plans no matter what Gavin thinks.

The banter back and forth between these two was too funny. I was flipping the pages trying to figure out if they would hook up or would the disaster that follows Kady strike again. I so want more of this Basketball series.

A few of my favorites:

“Eyes up here, dude,” she snaps her fingers in my face, drawing me out of the sensual trance. “I know I’ve got a great rack, and my girls are rather eye catching if I do say myself, but now’s not the time. There’s work to be done.” I’ll admit, all I heard from her was rack and now’s not the time. Which translated in my sex addled brain means that there might be another time. As in not right now, but later maybe. Which give me some ideas.

I rub my thumb over my lips and feel the ghost of her warm mouth lingering. Damn, she even tastes like a peach. Who said apples are the only forbidden fruit?

Kady Griffin is a beautiful mess and has no idea the kind of destruction she leaves behind in her wake. Sweet disaster is written all over her.

There’s only one word to describe everything we’ve done and shared the last two days: foreplay. The easy banter we’ve exchanged the risqué encounters. And now the intense physical connection between us as our bodies move in time with one another. It’s built as unstoppable magnetic force, charging between us.

“Whoa there, cowboy. Don’t go throwing me off just yet. I’m not done with my ride.”

She’s perfectly uninhibited. Spunky and spirited. Kady carries an inner light that blazes so bright, it’ll either warm you from the glow or burn you form intensity of her heat.
