Witch For Hire (Witch For Hire #1)

Young, terrified, and bound to a vampire, Louella Eschete fled the bayou and swore off magic. Years later, she’s returned to the tiny town of Cypress, Louisiana to take her rightful place as head of her magical family, whether she likes it or not.

In order to keep the tentative peace formed between the various races of powerful beings who rule side by side, she must face her own demons. Mainly one, Cristobal Cortez. Now a master vampire, and lord of the seven cities surrounding New Orleans, her former lover has moved up in the world. Their relationship gets way more complicated when his court is framed for a rash of murders they didn’t commit.

Forced to play her role as his bond mate, and launch an investigation into the darkness threatening to overturn truces, she may be in over her head.

Witches, vampires, and the bayou…oh my! Ok, enough with the silliness…I loved Witch For Hire! So long story short, Louella has run away from home due to some….”issues”…  Lou is from a family line of witches that are in the upper echelon of witch society. Her family is very respected. She has been gone long enough and things make her return home but she is in for a treat when she returns. Her family is being pulled apart as no one agrees on anything. Cristobal, her ex but not ex love, is the top Vamp in the area. She has some friends that have pulled away from their families. And now Lou struts back into town expected to do as everyone believes she should but one thing that we don’t get from Lou is that she is going to do what she thinks and feels is right. And boooooy does this cause some problems everywhere. She has to play her role in two different societies and also is working Witch For Hire to help others. Louella and her supporting characters are extremely funny and pissy all at the same time. Louella is an extremely easy character to relate to (even if we aren’t witches, lol). She struggles with the same crap we all do with society, friends, family, and foes…only on a supernatural level with intense twists and turns. Witch for Hire pulled me in with it’s promise of witches and gave me so much more! The characters are witty, snide, and relatable. The world building is on point. And the story…was very witchy!!!!! Shyla Colt is a new author for me and I am looking forward to reading more!

#WOTR18 – #Review – The Ghost and the Graveyard (Knight Games #1) by Genevieve Jack

Leave a comment

The Ghost and the Graveyard (Knight Games, #1)

 

**The Ghost and The Graveyard is a funny, exciting, and sexy read intended for adults. Due to sexual content, language, and violence this book is recommended for ages 18+**

Grateful Knight isn’t looking for love when she moves into a rent-free house on the edge of a graveyard. At twenty-two, all she wants is to recover financially so she can move back to the city where she belongs.

But sparks fly when the gorgeous cemetery caretaker, Rick, introduces himself and mentions his suspicion that her new house might be haunted. Her attraction to him seems supernatural, and despite her resolve to not get involved, she literally can’t keep her hands off him.

When things in Grateful’s house start moving on their own, another man enters her life, Logan, a sexy ghost with a dark secret. He says Rick isn’t what he seems, and indulging her passion for him could cost her soul.

One thing’s for sure, magical forces are at work in the tiny town of Red Grove, and they’re converging on Grateful. Life will never be the same once she’s forced to choose between the ghost and the graveyard.

 

Goodreads

 

The ghost or the graveyard….make a choice….what?! So I am not gonna lie. I picked this book up solely because of it’s cover. What can I say, it just yelled “read me!”. So, without reading the synopsis I jumped right in. Grateful is our main character. Like most/some women at 22 years old she had her run in with some not so great relationships. The last one has done her in. To get out of financial debt she moves to this little town and is going to stay in the house behind the graveyard until her father is able to sell it. As she stays in the house she finds herself smitten with the caretaker of the graveyard but then also has a ghostly friend in her home as well. As she is forming friendships with these two she is faced with a truth that blows her mind. I actually never saw this twist coming and bravo to the author as I was completely surprised by the twist. As Grateful is trying to get her life figured out a past life is constantly throwing curve balls her way. There are many supernatural creatures in this story and one in particular I am super excited for you to meet. I under no circumstances want to give the story away but it is sooooo much more than the synopsis. It is super witty, lots of sass, and some hawtness!!! As I was reading I could picture the house in my mind, I could picture the graveyard, and best of all I could picture all of the facial expressions Grateful was giving everyone!

At twenty, she decided she needed a change.

Then her brothers hired him.

He makes her feel like she’s spiraling backward, but is she really?
Has she found the one person she can confide in, the one person who will not judge her?
And just how long can she keep it from her brothers before the repercussions settle in and she not only loses him, but the respect of her brothers?

Her road hasn’t been easy–and it’s not about to start smoothing out now.

Goodreads

I purchased this book.

GAH!!  I was so stoked for this book!!  Brenna, the perfect but not really perfect sister of Rory and Connor, and hottie bartender Stone who was told Hands off on the day he met her.

Brenna was a complex character.  We learn a lot her through the other 2 books but this book we finally LEARN all her secrets.  I liked Brenna well enough in the series, but her depth of character was something I didn’t expect.  To see all she has lived through and kept inside herself was stunning.  We know she is feisty but to see the strength in her character was pretty awesome too.

Greyson Stone…I-che-mama…..this man is everything you want wrapped up in a hot bow of tattoos!!!  He is the perfect person to crack Brenna and then help build her back up.  He is the truly the best man her and helping her understand herself but also understanding her need of TIME!!

This book was probably my favorite in the series but it is really close with Connor and Mia!!  Those two are a riot to read.

#WOTR18 – #Review – Bearly Safe (Texan Bears Book 1) by Anya Breton

Bearly Safe (Texan Bears Book 1)

 

Attending a co-worker’s Halloween party dressed as a sexy fairy was the worst decision Shelby Maxwell made all week. That is until she lets her temper get the best of her in front of Dallas’s finest and ends up in the back of a police cruiser. Too bad the gorgeous jerk responsible for her bad behavior didn’t have the sense to avoid the police, himself.

When someone shoots up the party, the gorgeous jerk, Nick Kang, sprouts fur, explodes out of the police cruiser, and saves the day. Nick’s jerk streak continues as he leaves Shelby to explain what happened.

After her name is released to the press, a penitent Nick arrives to protect Shelby from the killer’s mafia associates. Close quarter guarding leads to close quarter groping and a little more intimacy than Shelby is prepared for. But it may be time to put her past behind her and accept far more than the safety Nick offers.

 

Goodreads

 

Holy fury hotness! I am a shifter fanatic but have never read about were-bears!  And guess what? I love them too! Shelby’s and Nick’s chemistry is intense. Palpable. You can freaking touch the angst, the sarcasm, the innuendos…..You will feel like you are Shelby! The love hate relationship she has with Nick is freaking HILARIOUS! And the way his cockiness seems to get in the way of absolutely every single conversation they have will have you wanting more! Shelby ends up being in the wrong place at the wrong time and gets a first hand look at shifter Nick. She is brought in for questioning after a shooting but can’t divulge all the details. As a hit is put on her Nick takes it upon himself to protect her. He is every bit a butt-head and tells her this first hand but they need each other. There is a push/pull between them that keeps this story rocking. It is full of action and suspense and is an absolute page turner but the witty banter is what is going to keep you on your toes constantly turning those pages to see what else can happen next. Her loudmouthed face will strike again! I absolutely love this bear pack and cannot wait to see what else is in store for us. To the author, you had me in stitches, squirming and tapping my toes!!!!!!! Love it!

Book #2 of The Bindings Duet

Leo’s betrayal devastated Sloane and his secret connection to her past tore them apart. Now she seeks to regain control of her life and erase all that she became as Leo’s submissive. Desperate to distance herself from what they had, she tries something new…

I purchased this book.

I am such a fan of book 1 I had to do a reread of it before starting Book 2.  Guess what?  I was still utterly in love with Leo and Sloane as I was the first time around.  Guess what?  I totally devoured this book because I needed to know what was going to happen to them.  Were the secrets going to be something they could work through or would more secrets and betrayals end my favorite hot mess couple??

Guys!!  Leo…omg tall, dark and super mysterious and yet so broken as a man he can’t even function now that Sloane knows EVERYTHING! He needs his love/his submissive to be complete and yet he is completely powerless to fix it.

Sloane…..she is a hot mess of confusion.  She has fallen for the wrong guy twice and been broken up over this.  So now she questions if her submission is the issue.  Maybe she should be a Domme??  Maybe if SHE was in control things would be better……???

The beginning of the book SEEING these characters so flipping lost and miserable made my heart ache for them.  They are both a hot mess because relationships are not something the do or even do well when in them.

When Leo makes the ultimate move to help get his girl back….swoon…my heart.  Seeing him be so vulnerable for Sloane was amazing.  Seeing her struggle with what she wanted even though she KNOWS she wants submission……The scene was so amazing.  Seeing the couple reconnect on a new level, an equal level, and level with total honestly was amazing.

Now folks, you know Kate isn’t gonna just let the Devil AKA Warren leave us alone right? ? Well that man comes back around and causes so much havoc and chaos for the family plus our couple, I seriously was cheering Leo on to punch him out!!

I loved the complexity of the relationship that Leo and Sloane have but I love the new levels of trust and honesty they develop in this book.  The epilogue was like the best part of this story friends…OMG I was loving it and how she blended it so flawlessly and seamlessly into the story.  I will so miss these characters but hey, if she decided to write a book about Ethan, I would be tots all about reading it!  JUST SAYING!!  HE was some kinda yummy.  He wasn’t Mr. Right but he was MR. Right Now….LOL

 

Bindings, Book 1 :

Ashamed of the woman she allowed herself to become, Sloane Montgomery sets out to repair the self-inflicted damage done to her life. A new town holds her new beginning and when Leo Calloway arrives everything changes.

Captivated by Leo and his dark desires, Sloane wonders if her fascination with his dominance goes deeper than fantasy. Has she been seeking punishment to atone for the sins of her past all along? Though Leo’s brutal lust is what first enthralls her, the bonds of trust they form could have the power to heal her.

When the ties to her former life threaten to take hold of her again, the passion binding her to Leo may be the key to her ultimate release.

#WOTRAttending #NewRelease #Review #MC Greyson by JM Walker

Leave a comment


Title: Greyson

Author: JM Walker

Model: Ryan Stacks

Photographer: Michael Anthony Downs

Cover Designer: Just Write Creations

Genre: MC Romance

Release Date: July 19

Confusion. Lust. Fear. Passion.
It started the moment she passed out in my arms.
Seduction. Vile. Depraved. Desire.
She couldn’t remember her past but looked to me like I was her future.
My walls were built. My heart was cold. My emotions vacant.
After being alone for five years with only my motorcycle club at my side, she was who I had been searching for. The one I had needed all along to light up the darkness surrounding my life. Just when I thought I had her, just when I thought I could finally allow myself that happiness I didn’t think I deserved. She was ripped from my hands…

Goodreads

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

HOLY COVERS BATMAN!!!!!  Yep, Greyson’s cover is gonna grab you by the throat with how hot it is, but the man inside is what’s gonna make you stay and fall in love.

Now, we’ve met Greyson before he was in Walker’s King’s Harlots series, however you have to read those books to follow what I hope is the start of a all new series!!!

Greyson is, let me see how do I describe him???  HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!!!  ALPHA, ALPHA, ALPHA!!!   Motorcycle ridin’ , leather wearing, DOMINANT, all wrapped up into one ball of a yummy President.

Eve is a girl who doesn’t know who she is literally, not that she’s trying to find herself she has amnesia.  She was running through the woods when she passed out outside of of the Hell’s Harlem clubhouse, Greyson’s MC.

While everyone is trying to figure out who Eve really is there is also the relationship that she and Greyson are kinda but not really fighting against.  Both of them feel this heavy pull toward the other and man is it yummy.  Greyson is a man that knows what he wants, when he wants it, and forget about Eve I wanna give it to him.

Man, Walker can write some intense stuff.  Eve’s background, the holy hotness relationship of Greyson and her, the man himself is even intense.  I really don’t know who she walks around with these people in her head!!! Lol.

OMG!! And Greyson’s club brothers!!! I forgot about them!!! They sooooooooooo, need their stories told, I mean I fear for JM Walker’s sanity with all these intense hot guys in her mind!!! Lol!!

Goodreads

I received this book from the author for an honest review.
Man!! This book was not what I expected!! I expected to see the Greyson we all knew from the King’s Harlots….alll brooding and whining over not getting the girl but I am glad to be wrong.
Yeah Greyson is a Douche but something about him I loved in the series. I felt bad for his unrequited love for Brogan, but she is head over heels in love with Coby. I can’t see her without him and him without her. When JM said she was writing Greyson’s book I was conflicted because I wasn’t sure he is worthy of an HEA…LOL Sorry Greyson and lets not paddle my ass for saying that ok…great!!
Greyson…he is a broken man who is just going through the motions. Yeah he is happy with his MC Brothers and his cat but he is still a bit hurt over losing the girl. When Eve literally falls into his life, he is instantly attracted to her but also consumed by finding out who she is especially when a total dick starts to show his face around the club.
Eve is lost but sees the hottie with the blue eyes as a savior. She has no memory but keeps having terrible nightmares about bad things. When she starts worming her sassy mouth and fiery heart into Greyson’s world, she turns him upside down for all the right reasons.
Grey and Eve has some of he best banter I have seen JM write. They care and it scared them both half to death. Grey is so afraid to open up especially if he could lose eve to her past. Eve is scared to open up because she has no idea who she really is.
The who and the why’s of Eve’s life and how she happened to stumble into Greyson’s life come crashing down on the two. They have a lot to conquer to be together, but they first must face their fears and accept that loving someone is a good thing. Loving and trusting someone 100% can actually make you a better person.Some favorite quotes
“Tell me I’m yours, Eve.” He kissed my cheek. “Say it again.”
Ah. So that was what this was about. “You are mine,” I told him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.” I glanced his way over my shoulder and gulped. He was coming toward me. Feral. Hard. His eyes were dark. His nostrils flared. His jaw ticked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She tasted like sin.
Pure fucking delicious sin.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
“You demand things of me that I can’t give you.” He took a step closer. “That’s the problem.”

#WOTR18 #Review – About Last Night (O’Gallagher Nights #2) by Mignon Mykel

Leave a comment

About Last Night (O'Gallagher Nights Book 2) by [Mykel, Mignon]

O’Gallaghers, a long-standing establishment in San Diego, is known for it’s Irish brews and fare.

When the next generation of O’Gallaghers took over, it became known for a little bit more…

Rory O’Gallagher.

Thirty, five-ten, and long, lean muscle.
The middle O’Gallagher is as known for his prowess in the bedroom as the oldest is,

and for so much more.

Women have always been attracted to him.
People have always flocked to him.

But then there was Emily Winters.

With her white blonde hair, icy blue eyes, and cold demeanor toward him, Rory shouldn’t want anything to do with her.

But so help him, he does.

Goodreads

I purchased this book.

Oh man! Another fun and sexy novella to devour when you’re in need of some cocky and arrogant Irish Bartenders dealing with their feisty and sassy women!

Rory is super shallow.  I mean I feel that is a great way to describe him to you.  He is petty and can be a total ass but he is super smart and can also melt your heart when his shallow side is stowed away.

Emily is a girl who is struggling to make ends meet and finish nursing school.  She has drive and ambition and no time for Rory’s drama.

The two are at such odds with each other all the times its only a matter of time before their explosion hits….Connor is certainly looking forward to the two finally crashing into each other!!  I love seeing Connor again and getting updates to him and his baby mama, Mia.

I am looking forward to the next book because I think Baby Sister Brenna has a secret love affair with another bartender names Stone mayhap???

#WOTR18 #Review – One Night Stand (O’Gallagher Nights #1) by Mignon Mykel

One Night Stand

O’Gallaghers has been a long-lasting establishment in San Diego, known for its Irish brews and fare. When the next generation of O’Gallaghers took over, it became known for a little bit more…

Conor O’Gallagher.

Thirty-two, six-foot, and all muscle. Flashes of dimples behind his black beard, quick winks for the lady patrons, and a tattoo sleeve that leaves the ladies begging to be his nightly conquest.

Because one of them will be.

Every night at close, Conor brings one, two, sometimes more, up to his apartment and has his merry way with them. The women always leave satisfied, and always know he’s a one and done kind of guy, no repeat performances.

But what happens when one of his one night stands comes back into his life five months later, and pregnant no less?

What happens when one night gives you more than you bargained for?

Conor’s about to find out…

Goodreads

I purchased this book.

This was a super sweet novella about Connor, the man whore, and Mia, the Wallflower, hooking up for a night but having some major ramifications after.  If you are looking for a sexy and quick book about reforming a man-whore look no further!!  LOL

Mia always had a crush on her besties brother, Connor, who of course didn’t even spare her a glace her way.  When older Mia sees Connor, she is trying to think up a plan to get the bartender to notice her when all of a sudden, she is in his apartment for a one-night stand.

After their night, Connor finds out something about Mia who immediately runs out the door never telling him who she REALLY is…..fast forward a few weeks later annnnnnd Connor and Mia come face to face to pregnant belly!!

I loved seeing the two of them trying to figure out what is up and also navigating the feelings they develop for each other.  Seeing hard as nails, rude as ever, arrogant and cocky Connor falling for the sweet, kind, shy and sassy-mouthed Mia made my heart melt.  I loved the story and am looking forward to reading the other stories in the set.

Dawn Brower, Amanda Mariel and Tammy Andresen

A Scoundrel's Ruin

Dance With Me At Midnight by Samantha Holt Charles always knew he’d be married within months of inheriting his title. He’s fully prepared to wed a woman he’s never met by summer.
Until he meets her that is.
Eloise is nothing like the poised, elegant and controlled woman he thought she’d be. Beautiful, yes, even with a damned parrot sitting on her shoulder, but hardly marchioness material.
Even if he does find himself a little intrigued by her.

Stealing the Rogue’s Heart by Erica Monroe When underworld princess Mina Mason falls for her childhood best friend, Charlie Thatcher, their passion starts a rival gang war that threatens to inflame London. With darkness and danger at every turn, these two star-crossed lovers risk it all for love.

For The Love of a Widow by Christina McKnight After years spent following her husband as he fought against Napoleon’s troops, Lady Lettie Hughes returns to London as a widow to take her place in Polite Society as the daughter of an earl. When nightmares of the battlefield plague her, she’ll find a second chance at love with the man she lost six years before.

Stolen by My Knave by Dawn Brower Jackerson Carwyn, the Duke of Whitewood hasn’t led the charmed life some believe, and in fact, grew up in the worst parts of London. Lady Elizabeth Kendall grew up on whimsical tales told by her mother. They are an unlikely match, and yet, sometimes its hard to dismiss the ties of the heart.

Taming a Savage Gentleman by Tammy Andresen Baroness Segrave needs a husband for society’s sake but she’d prefer he have no opinion at all. Which is why the Earl of Loudoun seems the ideal choice. With no fortune and a drinking habit, he should allow her to keep running her estate while living off the allowance she’d provide. But Loudoun proves to be both drunk and foolish. Suddenly a husband who is strong, capable, and appreciative of her gifts gains merit in her eyes. A man like Tom Maddox.

Scandalous Wallflower by Amanda Mariel Jane and Caleb are brought together through an unwanted circumstance and discover something neither one believed they’d ever have, but can they let go of old hurts and beliefs long enough to embrace the gift fate bestowed upon them?

Goodreads

For The Love of a Widow by Christina McKnight – 5 Stars

I receive this book from the author for an honest review.
Oh man!! This book was amazing. I loved the novella and the different approach of the characters. Lettie is a great heroine who has gone through A LOT in the last 6 years. She has left her best friend/betrothed, her dowry, her EVERYHTING to marry a common man. To marry a soldier. All of this against her families wishes.
Daniel was so far in his “cups” to care that his best friend was calling off their marriage. He only cared about ruining himself further in the gaming halls, with willing woman and other things. His depression and downward spiral after his father’s death left him a mess and so saying good bye to Lettie was fine with him.
6 years.
6 years later everything has changed. Lettie is not the popular debutant in the Ton from before. She is a jaded widow who has seem more death and blood shed then any one should have seen. She is lost without her beloved Gregory. He was lost to her in the war. She returns home poor, and destroyed on the inside.
Daniel has realized his life is nothing without Lettie. He let her go 6 years ago, because he was too drunk to know any better and has regretted it every day. When she returns, he will do anything to have her back.
The heartbreaking recounts from Lettie are enough for you to understand why she pushed everyone away. When Daniel opens up to what made him wake up, you want to badly for them to figure to out. Seeing Daniel open up to Lettie, I was totally swooning!! This story was a great read and I would love to read more from them in the future…maybe have them pop in to a future story would be awesome too!!
Stolen by My Knave by Dawn Brower – 5 Stars
I receive this book from the author for an honest review.
**Claapping** AHHHHHH Captain Jack’s book! *Bootie Shaking and fist pumping* I have been so wondering about him after Evelyn’s book and now we know what happens to him.

Jack wakes up after a fall through time to save the king annnd his mistress soooo the king gives the stranger a title but no lands. Jack is in England time trying to figure out what to do and maybe how to get back to his time and life. He knows that getting an invite to the 2 week ball is probably going to drive him nuts. Having a title means young married minded woman will be looking for a husband. That is not in Jack’s cards.

Elizabeth knows alllll about time travel given that her grandmother and mother both did it. Her grandmother escaped Captain Jack and her mother fell through time to marry her father. She has seen visions of Jack but always thought they were her imagination running wild and never really thought that she was seeing the real man.

When they meet unexpectedly at the library, the chemistry was awesome. They both are intrigued and want to know more. When Jack tells Elizabeth his name and then tells her who she is…..Que plot twist….the two can’t be together!! GASP!!

When Jack talks to Alys all about her life, time travel and he learns all is not what he thought so he runs to find and claim his Elizabeth much like Mr. Darcy in the book he is reading!!

This book was one of my favorites in the series!!
