Leave a comment

She’d loved him for years, but she didn’t think he saw her as more than an assistant and friend.
He’d been blind to what was right in front of him for all these years.
Katie knows she has a great set-up. Great job, fabulous place to live, and a dream boss. Yeah, somewhere along the line, she let her feelings for her boss morph from employee to friend to love. Unrequited all the same, but still love. She need to accept he’s never seen her that way and move on.
Ronin isn’t looking for a relationship, he’s not made for love. The only reason he’s even considering a marriage of convenience is because it would benefit his business. But every woman he goes out with is severely lacking and he’s punched in the gut when he realizes it’s because they aren’t Katie.
Will Ronin be able to convince Katie he’s in it for more than just a business arrangement? Can Katie risk her heart for the man she’s loved all these years?
*Ronin & Katie is a steamy boss/employee romance featuring an older man and younger woman.*

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Katie and Ronin have been the perfect team in the workplace for 10 years. Half of those years, Katie has been secretly in love with the boss. Things get even more difficult for Katie when she is tasked with finding the perfect woman for Ronin to marry in order to please his grandfather. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?

This was another short, sweet, and steamy read by Dove Daniels. I am loving this series!

#wotrfamily #truestory #review #twinsietenise —Hope is Always Real by: Dorris Walker Taylor

Leave a comment

 

Hope is always real—even when we feel lost in the dark.

Have you ever felt afraid, alone, and desperate in the midst of life’s tribulations? Maybe you’ve even been convinced that all hope was lost.

God sometimes allows suffering and hardship to come into our lives. It may be grieving the loss of a loved one, a broken relationship, or so many other personal experiences. However, God also promises that He will never leave us nor forsake us. That promise is fulfilled through the power of hope.

Dorris Walker-Taylor is no stranger to adversity. From the time she was a little girl, Dorris endured unspeakable trauma and suffering, ultimately falling into addiction and prostitution that would take so long to overcome. Through every storm she weathered she always had one promise to lean on: HOPE. Now freed from the bondage, Dorris is using the lessons she learned through her own struggles to offer a beacon of hope for others in circumstances where hope is hard to find.

Combining her remarkable journey with powerful insights and inspiration, Hope Is Always Real offers a glimpse at the way God uses hope to heal wounds, mend broken relationships, and transform lives. This book will show you how to:

● Find hope in the midst of darkness
● Harness the power of hope to endure hardship
● Share hope with others in times of suffering
● Discover purpose in difficult seasons

With thought-provoking reflections and insightful references to scripture, this book is for anyone grasping for a glimmer of hope in challenging times.

Review by Twinsie Tenise

I first met the lovely Dorris Walker Taylor about 6 years ago at a book signing in East Peoria, Illinois, called Writer’s on the River. She was the guest speaker. I remember being incredibly moved by her story of survival.

This year when she arrived, she brought a book she wrote and you better believe I had to have a copy of it. The smile on Dorris’ face when we all asked her to sign a book she wrote! It was fantastic. She is a wonderful human being who definitely lights up a room when she is in it. But life wasn’t always so happy for Dorris you see.
In her book she tells about her family, the never ending love of her mother, her addictions that landed her on the streets of Nashville, homeless, for decades. She tells us about her struggles to survive and her love for God. And how her love for Him, the love of her mother, and an old friend who never forgot about her, may very well be the reasons Dorris is here today, able to tell her story to all who will listen.
Thank you, Dorris, for sharing your story with us. I’m proud of you for all that you have overcome in your life. I’m glad you have reasons now to smile because your smile is too beautiful of a thing to waste.

Dorris Walker-Taylor is a speaker and a light to all those who come to Thistle Farms, a nonprofit organization. She travels across the country speaking to audiences about God’s gift of hope and using her gift of song. Dorris draws on her own experiences to illustrate the transformative power of hope and to offer encouragement to others on their own journeys of healing and recovery.

Time Stamps by [KL Kreig]

Time stamps.

Our life is marked by them. Significant milestones to the seemingly mundane. All of them have a place. A purpose. Moments and chapters stacking on each other, building scars and memories. Creating stories that are only ours to tell.

But those stamps are finite, pre-determined. And eventually our allotment runs out.

From the first moment Roth laid eyes on Laurel, he was done for. She is sarcastic and clumsy and the most whimsically alluring creature he has ever met. And as he sat across the table from her in a café on their first date, he fell head over heels in love. He couldn’t imagine his life without her. Their romance is a whirlwind. Their love deep and unrivaled.

But life doesn’t often follow our pre-scripted playbook, and after ten short years together Laurel receives devastating, life-altering news that will change everything.

Time Stamps is a heartwarming and heartbreaking epic love story about life, hope and loss. Told in the past through Laurel’s eyes and the present through Roth’s, you will embark on a beautiful, intimate journey into a couple’s lives where ultimately what matters most is not only how we live each day, but the memories we leave behind.

Leave a comment

-Amber-
He was mean.
Domineering.
Possessive.
Sammy Butcher had an outer layer he showed to the world. But I got the side of him I had been craving since I first met him.
After the first man I had ever loved was taken from me, I didn’t know how to open up and trust again. But Sammy made it his mission to let me see him. The real him.
Kind and gentle, two things I never thought I would get from him. He also showed me that as long as it was with the right person, I could embrace my deepest and darkest fantasies.
I wanted to be his pet but more than that, I wanted to be his. In every sense of the word.
For good.

-Sammy-
She was beautiful.
Seductive.
And a brat.
Amber Bishop could very well bring me to my knees just from saying my name alone. With her vibrant red hair and pale skin, I wanted to leave my touch on every inch of her.
She had a hard time trusting. Couldn’t say I blamed her. I wasn’t known to be a nice guy. I wasn’t the hero in a romance book. I said and did whatever I wanted, whatever the outcome.
But I wanted to be better.
For her.
For us.
No matter how long it took, I would show her she could trust me, and I would take care of her.
I would fight for her.
Even if it destroyed us.

Author Note:
I know a lot of readers don’t like knowing possible triggers ahead of time, but I know a lot of readers DO need to know in advance. And that is perfectly understandable! So I thought I’d do something a little differently this time for the warning in this book by giving YOU the choice to read the trigger warnings or not.
Please see the link below that will take you directly to my site and it will include a more detailed warning.
Please be advised that it WILL give some spoilers.

This is NOT a light and fluffy romance.
Final warning: This book deals with certain topics that may be triggering for some. Please read with caution.

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Sammy Butcher is The Enforcer for Hells Harlem. He’s not a man of many words and he spends most of his days bitter and angry. Part of that could be due to the fact that a certain redhead has gotten under his skin and all he wants is her!

We all know from previous books that Sammy and his twin are both a bit kinky. In Liberate Us, we find out just what turns Sammy on. And some of the things he likes are rough, crass, and deliciously dominating. But we also see a side of Sammy we have never seen. The gentle, overprotective lover who has wanted Amber since the moment he laid eyes on her. Theres something different about this woman and he is bound and determined to make her his. The good and the bad, the rough and the gentle are just some of the many things that makes Sammy Sammy and also my absolute favorite JM hero.

Amber does not easily trust anyone, especially men. She had a terrible past and a horrible first marriage. Those things left her trust of men very low. Sammy is different and Amber knows it but that still doesn’t help the doubt she feels creeping in.

He wants to be her Dom.
She wants to be his pet.
But in order for that to happen, they first have to deal with the past and present colliding in a battle that could very well destroy them.

Liberate Us is my favorite in the series thus far. Sammy and Amber were perfect for one another. She is the calm to his storm. He wants nothing more than for her to be happy. When they are together, something magical happens. Something neither one of them can ignore. I loved every single page of their story.

***This book is not for everyone, so please make sure you read the trigger warnings.***

Nicole (The Mate Series) Book #1

Nicole Callahan, mate to fierce and brooding VC Warrior Damon DeMasters, has been trying to find her place in his world. Without a doubt, it’s been interesting, but she believes there’s a lot more she can offer the children she spent so much of her human life fighting for.

The Mate series delves into the kickass world of the Warriors’ mates and how united, they can make a difference—just like their badass Protectors. Follow along to see how these exceptional women’s newfound freedom affect those around them and which Warrior may or may not support their feisty independent mate’s new and exciting path.

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

WHAT!!!!  OMG THIS BOOK!!!  I am so excited for this series.  When Teresa told us she was thinking about it, I flipped my SHIT!!  I mean we fall in love with these ladies in their stories but then we don’t get to see them as much because the guys get all the action….damn Cock Club right Jill!!??  So, to SEE the ladies all banding together to help in their own way, was amazing!!

Damon and Nicole have been through so much but Nicole always wonders and get stuck in her head….maybe she isn’t enough or the right person for her strong, decapitating heads specialist Alpha warrior, Damon.

I loved seeing her return to her roots and essentially where it all began…….Damon and Nicole both are so confused because they want the best for their mate and their relationship, but the changes are starting to cause some fraying to not only their relationship but also a few others…like say My Alpha Jared.  I am about to nut punch him hardcore…what’s up!!????

I love that no matter what series or cross over series you read with the Protectors in it, the story line is FRESH and the villains are super evil.  I mean the bad guy from the Mates series is also connected to the bad guy in the main series buuuut slightly different.

If you love Teresa and her books then TRUST ME, you will need this book to add to your collection of the rest of her amazing books.

 

Teresa Gabelman is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the ‘Protectors Series’. When not writing about sexy alpha vampires and the women who drive them crazy she can be found on a lake with a fishing pole/Kindle, at a MMA event or spending a fun evening with family.

Being a full-time writer has allowed Teresa to connect more with readers which is what she loves most about writing. If you find the time she would love to hear from you!

Brad: The Fortuna Dare Society by [Rochelle Bradley, Kyleigh Poultney]

The Fortuna Dare Society: a Book Club for Men. What happens at book club doesn’t necessarily stay at book club.

Welcome to Fortuna, Texas where the men are dared to love as big as they live. The men of widower Brad Davidson’s book club, the Fortuna Dare Society, are dared to act out a trope, setting, and character with a significant other.

That poses a problem for Brad, who hasn’t had serious relationship in over twenty years.

He likes the town librarian, but it might not amount to anything more than a strange, costume-staged-musically-enhanced meal.

Then again, he married the last woman he went out of his way to date.

Review by Pam James

Rochelle Bradley 5*****
Brad: The Fortuna Dare Society
Book Club Dare….
This is a great short read. This book club is mostly men. They asked a few women to join. Brad is one of the guys. Ophelia is a librarian they asked to join. I love the dare they gave Brad. Such an enjoyable book! From a True Fan… Pam James

Rochelle puts an artistic spin on everything she does but there are two things she fails at miserably:
1. Cooking (seriously, she can burn water)
2. Sewing (buttons immediately fall back off)

She loves baking and makes a mean BTS (Better than Sex) cake. When in observation mode she is quiet, however, her mouth is usually open with an encouraging glass-is-half-full pun or, quite possibly, her foot.

She is a Bearcat, a Buckeye, an interior decorator, and fluent in sarcasm.

In 2008, when her youngest entered Kindergarten, she decided to get the stories out of her head. Midway through her first novel, hurricane Ike (yes, a hurricane in Ohio) rendered the laptop useless with a nine-day power outage. She didn’t give up, but continued to pursue her dream.

Every November Rochelle takes on the challenge of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo.org) where she endeavors to write 50,000 words in thirty days. You can often hear her cheering the Dayton area Wrimos (those who join her in this crazy pursuit).

Rochelle shares her home with a big black cat, an itty-bitty orange tiger kitty, her daughter, her son, and her Prince.

She loves to connect with readers. You can find her on Facebook (search for Author Rochelle Bradley), Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

More Than A Memory is a small town, brother’s best friend, second chance romance!

We were more than we pretended to be.

Or maybe we were never anything at all.

-Olivia-

I loved him when I shouldn’t have. And I left him to save us both.

Now my life is in danger and he’s the only one who can offer the protection I need.

I hate being so vulnerable, so weak…

But if I’m going to bare my secrets to anyone, it’s him. Even if he hates me for them.

-Aiden-

I would have risked it all for her, but she quit before she ever gave us a chance.

I don’t hate her like she thinks I do, but this is more than a job for me.

This is my chance to prove that Olivia and I…

We’re more than a memory.
