#NewRelease #Review – The Rich Boy by Kylie Scott

The Rich Boy

I’m the type of girl who’s given up on fairy tales. So when Beck – the hot new busboy at work – starts flirting with me, I know better than to get my hopes up. Happily ever afters aren’t for the average. I learned that the hard way.

But how can I be expected to resist a man who can quote Austen, loves making me laugh, and seems to be everything hot and good in this world?

Only there’s so much more to him than that.
Billionaire playboy? Check.
Troubled soul? Check.
The owner of my heart, the man I’ve moved halfway across the country to be with, who’s laying the world at my feet in order to convince me to never leave? Check. Check. Check.

But nobody does complicated like the one percent.

This is not your everyday rags-to-riches, knight-in-shining armor whisking the poor girl off her feet kind of story. No, this is much messier.

I received this book from the author.

First up, thank you Kylie for all the Jane Austen references.  It made my heart happy especially the Pride and Prejudice ones. #MrDarcyIsMyBookBoyfriend

Ok Alice and Beck.  Alice is the waitress and Beck is the busboy.  Seems pretty typical of a set up right?  Two employees hit it off and start to flirt and spend time together right?? Alice is happy living life the way she is ..simple and easy.  Beck appears all broody and with mystery, but she is intrigued.  When he has to leave, she is a bit saddened by his departure.  I mean they were getting married and all 😊  Alice likes Beck for Beck.

When Alice goes to Colorado and is thrown into this new Beck, she is overwhelmed.  She is not the kind of girl that is expected to be with Beck.  She has issues with all his money and everything that goes with it.  Beck is THE GUY everyone wants.  Alice is not at all ready for all that drama.

I liked the story a lot.  The comedy was perfectly snarky, but the chemistry was great.  I loved the slow burn romance that was in the story.  We knew Alice and Beck had chemistry but seeing them slowly fall was amazing to read.

#Review #ShortStory #PartofaSeries Resolution Baby Batter (Resolution Pact) by Frankie Love

Let’s get a bun in her oven.

I’m a cop with a sweet tooth and Dolly’s the treat I’m craving.

She’s finally ended things with her deadbeat boyfriend and I’m not missing the chance to make her mine.

Dolly’s the owner of my favorite donut shop and the woman with the best Bavarian cream in the city.

Damn, I love her jelly filling, her chocolate frosting, her perfect donut hole.

She may know how to make a mean old fashioned, but I know how to whip up baby batter that will get her maple glazed.

It’s a new year, and I’m ready to do more than get a bun in her oven.

I’ll be her baby daddy and her dream come true.

Review by Twinsie Dee

Kelli writes hot and steamy romances with delicious alpha males who will not stop until they get the women they crave exactly where they want them. Kelli’s heroes are tough as nails, hot as sin, and underneath the rough exterior is a heart of gold begging to be unleashed. If you think you can tame them, you’re probably right, but it won’t be an easy journey.

Make no mistake, Kelli’s stories will give you the happily ever after you need, but they’re also steamy and packed from cover to cover with exactly what you’re looking for late at night when you leave your panties by the door.

#WOTR #AttendingAuthor #SeriesStarter See Me (The Novus Pack Series Book 1) by M. Jayne


Throughout history, The Lady, Goddess of the Lycan world, has gifted werewolf packs with humans who carry her mark. Theodora Morrissey’s plans to return to college for her graduate degree are ended when she is awakened by an otherworldly voice on a rarely used airstrip in Nebraska. Injured and disoriented, she has no idea the discoloration on her back has marked her as a Seer, and that she is now a possession—and the prisoner—of the Novus Pack of Lycans.

To the Novus pack, the word of their leader, their Laird, is the law. With compelling gray eyes and long dark hair, Raider Black rules his pack with intelligence and ruthlessness. To cement the security of his pack, Black has committed to mate another Packleader’s daughter. But he’s finding it impossible to fight his attraction to the pack’s alluring new Seer, claiming her as his own.

Sweet, fearless, and unintentionally funny, Theo upends Black’s world and pushes the boundaries of his rules. How far is Black willing to go, and what will he sacrifice, to save both his pack and the human Seer who’s found a way not only into his bed, but his heart?

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

I loved catching up with my favorite people.

The book starts right off with a hot BANG!!  Rystar, Thane and Brie are going away for a few days to spend time on their private island for a weekend of sexy fun!!

Right off the bat, I admit I was curious about the question Thane asks Rytsar while the three were on vacation at the beginning of the book.  I mean….I thought Rystar would jump at the chance so I am wondering what is in store for him??

The rest of the book has a lot going on.  I enjoyed seeing Tono and hearing about the developing bond between Autumn and him.  They are the perfect blend together.  I was so happy for Lea and her new hottie Hunter.  She so needs someone after Liam and all he did to her.  Master Anderson and Shay are adorable too.

The storyline of Brie’s documentary and how it plays into Mary’s story line made me sick to my stomach.  That girl cannot catch a break.  I mean we have a love hate relationship her and I.  But this plot twist I did not see happening at all…..

The story line about Lilly made me nervous because we don’t’ need her causing more trouble for our family.

The end of the story was a great cliffhanger because I wanna know who is making moves and who is going to be the secret benefactor to help get things done!!!

Received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.

This story jumps right in with a bunch of hotness and travels. Sir, Brie and Rytsar are jetting away to their private island. I love the connection that Brie, Sir and Rytsar have but my heart still hurts for Rytsar. After Brie has been spoiled by these too it is off to Italy. There are a few tears and joyous moments while seeing Nonno, Nonna and the rest of the family. My heart ached for Nonna and Nonno. However, Brie receives and amazing and unexpected gift from a friend of Sirs father. Cannot give too much away but what an amazing thing.

Brie has grown so much as a woman through these books. She has really come into her own. She has learned to stand her ground, believe in herself and not let people walk all over her. She will have to put up a fight for her documentary.

I enjoy when we get to see the rest of the gang. Amazing to see Autumn and Tono and how much she is blossoming. I’m happy for Lea she has had ups and downs but maybe Hunter is different. My heart breaks for Mary she has had a hard life and it needs to get better for her. I am ready for more I need to find out if all is going to work out because with the plot twist at the end left me in turmoil.

#WOTR20 #5YearFamily #Paranormal #Vampires #Saga #KU – Bishop, The Protectors Book 15 by Teresa Gabelman

Bishop (The Protectors Series) Book #15

Witch hunter and new VC Warrior, Bishop Valentino, takes pride in his duties, both past and present. Never once has he doubted his past as a witch hunter. That changes when a beautiful, independent witch occupies his mind more than he’s comfortable with.

Helping his new brothers of the VC keep all the Dragonfly Coven safe from the diabolical warlock, Orjyll, is Bishop’s number one priority. When that priority begins to shift and his focus is pulled away, his allegiance to the brotherhood is at risk.

Saving the world is something Bishop and the Warriors tirelessly do every day. But keeping witches safe is something new for Bishop, and if they fail and the Grail women fall to what the Fates bestowed on them many years ago, Hell on Earth could come swiftly.

To lose the epic battle between good and evil is not an option. Bishop has to find balance between his oath to the brotherhood and his heart. If not, life as he knows it will change forever.

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

I finished this book and had to sit and think about how I would rate it.  I was a little confused because I never have trouble rating these books…mainly because they are all amazing IMO and that is what this blog post is about.

I have loved Bishop and the chemistry between him and Bonnie.  But in the Warrior Wedding when they kissed and the sparks were flat, I was like WTF??  What is happening??  Are we getting a new more amazing person for Bishop?  Who can be more amazing then Bonnie??? Because sweet baby Jesus she might be my favorite female in the series!!!  Her sass and fire plus ridiculous comedy….that is a win in my book.

Then we find out why the kiss was so flat and I was like GUUUUURL Bonnie you don’t mess with a Warrior that way….LOL.   But I THINK the initial set up with them was a little slower then and the building of the transition was also a bit slower….the transition reference you gotta read because I am not about to spoil anything ya’ll.  So because of that it seemed a lot slower of a book.  Teresa’s book are generally action packed from moment to moment.  I am not saying that is a bad thing but I wasn’t expecting it.

After the story picks up and we know what is going to happen, I was bucked in and READY ‘TA GO.

I loved the dynamic of Bishop and Bonnie.  The witch and the witch hunter plus I loved the memories he can give her of her mom.  That in itself is something not everyone can do or would do for her.

The final scenes of the book were intense, and I was a bit worried for a few seconds reading the book because I wondered what was going to happen.  Seeing Sloan Murphy lose his shit was kinda hawt as hell too.  Who knew???

All in all once I sat down and thought about it, I really loved the slower build of the book.  I loved seeing Daniel and learning more about his talents.  I am so damn ready for Raven and Charger to get a book.  She is a fierce Protector and she is going to make him do a whole lot of begging to get back in to her bed!!
