WHEN THE BEAST WITH A HEART OF GOLD

Everything changed for Jasper Benedict, the Earl of Ailesbury, the night his family died in a tragic fire—the same fire that left him disfigured. Now, his scars have given him the name the Beast of Faversham. But when he stumbles upon a damaged carriage during a tempest, the beautiful woman inside reminds him of the man he wishes he could be: free of his past, and able to love.

TAMES A BEAUTY WITH A WICKED PAST

When her carriage breaks down outside Faversham Abbey, this is just the most recent in a long series of misadventures for Miss Adeline Price. Her beauty hides a fatal flaw: she’s quick to judge, and rarely looks beneath the surface. But the longer she’s around Jasper, the more she begins to want to be better—someone deserving of him.

But when it comes time to reunite Adeline with her family in London, will Jasper believe that she sees not his scars, but the good, honorable man he is?

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

AHHHHH Beauty and The Beast!!  This book is totally a retelling of Beauty and The Beast!!

So our girl Adeline is a bit of a spoiled brat right?? She pouts a lot ad gets her way a lot with her brother and new sister in law/bestie Theo.   When Adeline has to take her 2 youngest sisters to boarding school she has a problem with her carriage.  It breaks down in the coldest and rainiest of nights.

Jasper is a scarred man who only has the servants for friends.  The town calls him the Beast and he is ok with the lonely life.  He has duties to his people and that is all he can see for his future…his duty.  When he offers to let Adeline in his house for the night, everything changes for the two

Adeline sees an imperfect person become the perfect match for her.  Jasper learns that he too wants more than just his duty to the villagers.  The couple have to learn how to communicate with each other on his lands with his villagers and when they are forced to return to London and deal with the ton.

I loved this book.  I loooooved seeing Adeline grow as a person in the novel.  We see the brat becoming a woman and taking a stand for what she wants.  I loved Jasper for his heart.  He may act like the shunning doesn’t hurt but he wears his heart on his sleeve.  When Adeline is the first woman to look at him as more than a Beast, he is so confused and unsure what to do.

The ballroom scene made me have a few tears especially at how bare Adeline lays it all out for her family and friends regarding Jasper.

Dire straights.

Rock bottom.

Out of options.

It’s where we were. My pack and I.

A simple bargain.

A childhood crush.

Could it work? In a world of fated mates how would we possibly fake it for everyone?

Luca made it all sound so easy. My heart, body, and wolf were on board. I just needed to convince my head.

I couldn’t deny the alpha he was or the chemistry between us. Only time could tell if it would be for eternity.

A not so simple bargain changed it all.

A MOST INDECENT PROPOSAL

Annabelle Green needs a husband-and quickly. To inherit the only home she’s ever known, she must be married by her twenty-fifth birthday. But finding a suitor has been next to impossible after a reckless rogue named Quinton Carlisle seduced her into a scandalous midnight tryst. Her reputation in ruins, Belle now needs a rather large favor. And she knows just who to turn to . . .

Quinn can hardly believe that the shy bookish girl he teased as a child has grown into such a brazen beauty. The very idea of marrying Belle to right the wrongs of his past is downright shocking . . . and deliciously tempting. Too bad marriage, convenient or otherwise, is the last thing Quinn wants. He’ll help Belle find a husband and be on his way. But if he can’t control his attraction to the bride-to-be, this marriage could go up in flames-of wicked desire.

I fell in love with historical romances and all things Regency—and especially all those dashing Regency heroes—while living in England, where I spent most of my time studying the Romantic poets, reading Jane Austen, and getting lost all over the English countryside.

When I read my first Regency romance in 2012, I was hooked and longed to create my own independent and spirited heroines and dashing heroes. The best part of writing historical romances is falling into history—to live in the world of Regency England through my characters, with dazzling balls, beautiful dresses, and gorgeous houses that I would otherwise never be able to experience. I love the period’s rich history and find that all those rules of etiquette and propriety can be worked to the heroine’s advantage…if she’s daring enough to seize her dreams.

In addition to earning my degrees in the U.S., I have studied theatre in London, Mexican history in Guadalajara, and Spanish in Ecuador. I am an avid traveler and have enjoyed visiting schools and volunteering with children’s organizations in Peru, Ecuador, Thailand, and Mexico, and I have amassed thousands of photos I unleash on unsuspecting friends who dare to ask about my travels.

I love to be outdoors! I’ve been hiking in Alaska, the Andes, and the Alps, including one week spent dangling off the via ferrata in the Italian Dolomites, and I love whitewater rafting (when I don’t fall in!). I earned my pilot’s license at Chicago Midway (To all the controllers in Chicago Center—I greatly apologize for every problem I caused for you and Southwest Airlines), and it is my dream to one-day fly in a hot-air balloon over Africa.

I adore all things chocolate, shamelessly dive into ice cream of any flavor, and guzzle Kona coffee by the gallon. A Doctor Who fanatic (everyone says my house is bigger on the inside), I am a terrible cook who hopes to one day use my oven for something other than shoe storage. When I’m not writing, I like to spend my time trying not to kill the innocent rose bushes in my garden.

“An unexpected evil brings both the MC and Military world together in this brand new series by J.M. Walker”

He doesn’t remember.
In the beginning, women and alcohol were one in the same. Until he met her.
The pain and heartache he caused her died when he was shot and fell into a coma.
Waking up is the only way he can get back to Maxine Stanton while she does everything she can to push him away.

She hates him.
Every fiber of her being loathes the man she fell in love with but she can’t control her heart and wants him just the same.
When Dale Michaels finally wakes up, she realizes they need to end this once and for all, before it destroys them both.

When an unexpected source rips through what they’ve worked hard to maintain, only then do they realize the full potential of their love.

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

This book took me on an emotion rollercoaster JM Walker has a way of jarring the emotions from me. I have to say the opening of this book had me hooked and the ending had me choked up. Lives change in the blink of an eye can Max and Dale find a way to deal with the changes. What happens when evil reaches your loved one and tortures them?

Max the VP of her MC has dealt with having her heart torn out by the one she loved the most now is dealing with the loss of her baby girl and now the person responsible for her hurt is laying in a coma. Max cannot let Dale in again not with the way he treated her heart the last time.

When Dale does wake up from the coma he cannot remember all the hurt he caused Max but tries to figure out why she being this way toward him. Max cannot let him in again not with the way he treated her heart the last time. See when someone has never been loved he gets scared when he has it and doesn’t know how to deal with it. Dale shows us a sweet side of the a$$ of a man.

There wasn’t much verbal communication between Max and Dale but they did have some numbing sex scenes. To watch what Max and Dale endured in the past and now is painful and how can they overcome all that has occurred. Everything Max and Dale went through had my heart bleeding for them. I cannot image what is going to happen in the rest of this series and I for one cannot wait to read it.

J.M. Walker is an Amazon bestselling author who loves all things books, pigs and lip gloss. She is happily married to the man who inspires all of her Heroes and continues to make her weak in the knees every single day.

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

Rytsar is back!!!  Man was I a MESS after he was kidnapped but our fierce, Sadist came back with a BOOM *Snickers at my inside joke*

Rytsar is down and dying at the hands of his enemy. He is hoping and praying his brother from antoher mother, Thane, will stay away to keep Brie and the babe safe but you know Thane, that is not gonna work for him.  As Rystar is in his cell being befriended by a sweet dog, he is rethinking everything and every memory that he appreciated in his life…..Everything from his lost love to Brie, Thane and their soon to be little one.….I mean he may also be making a “your gonna die a slow and painful death if I get the chance” list….but you know.

When the gang all come to the rescue, Rytsar SEES for the first time, how much growth the Wolf Pup has.  The rescue of the him by Todd, Captain and Samantha will forever change the dynamics between these characters.  All I gotta say is Captain is a bad ass!!  My respect for Samantha grew tenfold but Todd….man Todd…..WOW…..my heart……….I just………….yeah………….read it!

The reunion of Brie, Thane, Rytsar is so perfect.  The trio spends time together reassuring each other that they are all really there and together in this make shift family that they have.  I love the scenes between the three of them.  The love, mutual respect and caring is just absorbed off the pages and enters your heart full on!

The Lilly story really kicked in, some declarations from Rystar and Samantha are made, our Brie is celebrating having her two men home, her bestie with bad jokes makes a special visit annnnd Brie writes in her fantasy journal!! The only thing missing was Master Anderson and Tono to make this book 100% complete!!   Come on #GreedySub #WantsAllTheMastersAvailable

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

I have been on pins and needles waiting to find out what happens to my Rytsar Durov. The love Durov holds for Thane, Brie and moye solntse is extraordinary. With him being captured it is up to his friends and some not so friends to find and return him to Brie and Thane. I was in tears at the beginning of this and even found myself trying to hold it together during other parts.

Rytsar may be a sadist but loves with all he has and has a large heart for family and those he loves. I have to say one of the many things that happened in this book was when Rytsar was on the brink of giving up he was sent a savior to boost his energy and gave him a fighting chance. It was a stray dog that would not give up on him. This mutt gave him what he needed to hang on tell an extraction attempt was made. When the Calvary showed up Durov had mixed emotions when he saw who came. OMG what Todd had to endure was hard to see I was crushed. All I can say is that being able to see the boy he was in the first Brie books to the man he is now truly makes my heart happy.

After everything Durov suffered he has to decide if he will let his past go and move forward or continue to hold grudges. There is still the Lilly threat out there on Brie that Durov is determined to end.  The Sadist was really able to come out to play in this book and I have to say I kinda enjoyed seeing it.  My favorite was seeing Brie, Thane and Rytsar reconnecting and bringing the love they share and how much they mean to one another together.

I cannot wait for the next adventure of these wonderful individuals.

“I heart my fans!” ~Red

Melody’s stuck in Sterling, Alaska over the holidays, sewing custom dresses for her friend’s wedding. She’ll do anything for her friends and is determined to be the best maid of honor she can be. There are just a few very sexy distractions.

Dale, Jason, and Ryan are lovers with an eye out for the right woman to complete their family. They’re happy to let Melody use space to make the dresses, but Dale especially doesn’t expect the perfect woman for them to show up in their small town. How are they going to explain Sterling’s unusual relationships. Even so, the trio is definitely interested in more than simply helping out with the wedding but can they win Melody over?

Melody has never been anywhere like Sterling—where group relationships are a tradition. She can’t pass up the experience of three hot men in bed but rearranging her life for them, or any man, is a ridiculous idea. Normal marriages don’t last and she’s had repeat wedding dress clients to prove it. What the quad has is more than sex but they have a lot of baggage to sort through for her to make it a Sterling New Year.

I bought this book.

I have found a new genre that I love called Reverse Harem.  SO when I saw this book and this author was listed as a RH series I jumped.

This book is about Ryan, Dale and Jason.  They are all in a relationship but looking for the right woman to fill out their needs.

Enter Melody to the little town in Alaska.  She is coming up early to help her best friend Isla before her wedding.  As soon as she steps foot in the town, the men are prowling but our trio has already put a claim on her.

The guys can see that Melody is the right woman with her sass and spirit but she is not about to be stuck cooking and cleaning for one man let alone 3!!  The guys take the time to get her to understand that they want her for her and not for her maid service.

They slowly begin to chip away her icy thoughts towards a ménage style life and look to the men to be everything she could ever want and more.

I liked the story and was able to sit and get it read in a couple hours.  If you are looking for a spicy afternoon, give this series a try.
