#NewRelease #DoubleReview – Famous in a Small Town by: Kylie Scott

He was looking for serenity and he may have just found it in her.

Famous in a Small Town, an all new small town, grumpy meets sunshine rock star romance, from New York Times bestselling author Kylie Scott, is now available!

What chance does a small-town girl have with a world-famous rock star?

Two years after his wife’s death, rock star Garrett Hayes hasn’t moved on. But he has moved out of L.A. Where better to escape his past than a small town in the northern California mountains? If only he could get the townsfolk of Wildwood to leave him the hell alone.

Ani Bennet returned to her hometown for some much-needed serenity. The last thing she needs is a grumpy, too hot for his own good, rich and famous rock star living next door—and rent-free in her brain.

She set her fangirl tendencies aside and deleted his photo from her cell when they became neighbors. But when Garrett asks for help, she can’t say no. The problem is, spending time together is making those fangirl feelings resurface—and bringing them to a whole new level.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given the book by the author for an honest review.

Kylie is the queen on snarky language. I love that about her stories. I always know I will get banter or humor with characters. This book was another great one.
I do have to say I loved that this book wasn’t like her other rockers. Garrett is kinda a broken man. His wife and band are gone. He goes and is trying to rebuild his life and happens to move in next door to Ani. Ani is also a woman who has some issues herself to work through.
The chemistry between the two is a great slow burn. They have a delicious spark that ignites when they are together more and more. They have a lot of stuff to work thought but that is what makes the story all the more amazing of a read.
I absolutely loved it and would more of the side characters if they are developed for more books.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

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

Kylie has such a wonder way of telling a story with a new spin.  I enjoyed seeing Ani and Garrett’s story unfold in this small-town hideaway.

Ani ran home after being in the big city to hide away. Garrett lost the love of his life and ran away to hide from everyone and everything.  Ani never expected her new neighbor to be the one and only Garrett that she used to fangirl over. Garrett never expected to have a neighbor that could help him learn to live again. 

I loved watching these two “not” date and get to know one another.  Will Garrett’s fame be too much for Ani to handle as a small-town girl. Can Garrett make a life in a small-town after being in the spotlight for so long? I enjoyed getting to know all the characters in this book and I want to know so much more about some of them.  Smith really has intrigued me along with the other band members and would love to know more of their stories.

#WOTR22 #ReleaseDay #ARC #Paranormal #Shifters – Taming the Dragon, Sparks of Desire book 5 by Valerie Twombly

Taming The Dragon: Dragon Shifter Fire & Rescue (Sparks Of Desire Book 5) by [Valerie Twombly]

His past broke him.

Kadin’s siblings believe he only cares about pure dragon bloodlines and that is why he refuses to take a human mate. They don’t know about his dark past. A day centuries ago that changed him forever and left him crippled with fear. When he sees Avery, however, his dragon knows she belongs to him. The beast doesn’t care she’s human, but Kadin can’t forget his past.

She can heal him.

Avery has spent her life second guessing herself. From her body image, to allowing her brothers to convince her that an EMT was a more suitable job than a firefighter. When a shifter shows up at her station, she has no idea the impact he will have on her. Kadin is bigger than life and hotter than any fire she’s ever seen. When a friendly date turns into a night she will never forget, she’s left wondering why she can’t let him walk away.

When Kadin finally realizes he can’t live without Avery, he might be forced to do just that. Tragedy strikes not once but twice and threatens to break the couple apart forever.

Review by Twinsie Angie

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

I love this series and the lore about the dragon shifters in this series.  I love the family of shifters we have met and watched them all pair up with their mates.  Now its good old stubborn, hardheaded dragon shifter/fire chief Kaden.  He is finally over his sister marrying a human, but he refuses to do that.  For his people he needs to marry a pure bred or a halfling.  Too dang bad his dragon is not on board once he sees Avery.

Avery has been run over by all the men in her family.  They made her fee less then and really pushed her out of her love for being a firefighter and into being an EMT even though she was the best in her class.  When the human force asks a shifter to help them, she is stunned stupid at the hot man in front of her.  Too bad she is down on herself and believes no one like him would like someone like her.

Kaden and his dragon are smitten with Avery.  His dragon is ready to claim her but Kaden…remember when I said he was stubborn and hardheaded…well he won’t.  He pushes Avery away.

Kaden slowly reveals a history of loss the family is unaware which helps them understand him a little ebit better BUT they are still not happy he won’t accept his mate when she is perfect except for the fact she is a human …FYI only he has issue with that small detail.

Kaden and Avery have some turmoil with some bad people who do stuff that make Kaden and Avery face up to how they feel before they lose what they might have.

Kaden was a fun character to read.  He was sooo stupid and stubborn but yet he loves his family to hard.  Avery was just the perfect heroin.  She was unconfident but not annoying with her self-doubts.  She is sassy and loves his family.  I also loved her sister and her relationship.  Kelly gives Avery the confidence she needs along with Kaden’s sister Bella.

Award winning and bestselling author Valerie Twombly grew up watching Dark Shadows over her mother’s shoulder, and from there her love of the fanged creatures blossomed. Today, Valerie has decided to take her darker, sensual side and put it to paper.

When she is not busy creating a world full of steamy, hot men and strong, seductive women, she juggles her time between a full-time job, hubby and dog, in Northern IL.

#NewRelease – Piper’s Purgatory by Maureen A. Miller

PIPER'S PURGATORY by [Maureen A. Miller]

Is it possible to fall in love in the afterlife?

The last thing Piper Malko ever expected was to have her life snatched away so early. When she wakes up on the front steps of her brownstone to a rose-colored facsimile of her world, she is forced to come to grips with her demise. Why is she still trapped on her street, though? Was there a debate as to her final destination? Any attempt to ask the gauzy pedestrians passing by goes unheard. No one notices her. Until she sees him—over six feet of well-defined humanity staring back at her from across the street.

Russell Hughes is dead. He can remember the impact of the car. But there was no bright light. No portal to the beyond. Instead, everything around him is pink. Except for her. The attractive woman across the street.

Together, Piper and Russ try to piece together the crime that killed two strangers on the same road. If they can find their killer, then maybe they can escape this rosy limbo.

But will leaving purgatory tear them apart…just as they’re falling in love?

#NewRelease – Fubar, Life Sucks Book 5 by Elise Faber

FUBAR (Life Sucks Book 5) by [Elise Faber]

FUBAR
adjective

  1. Seriously, perhaps irreparably, damaged
  2. Thoroughly disordered or ruined
  3. Maggie Augustin’s life

She was pregnant and alone…and sick.
Seemingly every second of every day.

Yup. She’d gone from single and carefree to chained to a porcelain goddess…and soon she’d be chained to a baby—to nap schedules and car seats, to saggy boobs and blowouts, to—

Nothing that resembled her life before she’d peed on a stick and it had flashed with a plus sign.

Which was fine. Her life before that stick-peeing hadn’t been all that exciting and great. Aside from her friends, she’d been more than a little lonely, wondering what the hell she should be doing with her life.

Then…preggers.

Then…Carter.

Carter Jackson was gorgeous, funny, and good. Carter Jackson was the type of guy she once would have dreamed of riding in on his stallion and saving her. Carter Jackson was a man who’d apparently decided that she was someone that needed rescuing.

The problem? She didn’t need rescuing. Not anymore. She would be standing on her own feet from here on out, thank her very much.

The other problem? Carter was determined to rescue her anyway.
