#Review #NewSeries #Contemporary Jesse’s Hideout (Bluegrass Spirits Book 1) by Kallypso Masters

When the spirits of an infamous outlaw and a cookie-baking grandmother team up to bring together two unlikely lovers, what could possibly go wrong?

These two meddlesome spirits aren’t the only souls hiding out in the haunted Jesse’s Hideout B&B in Kentucky. Tillie Hamilton has made the 180-year old house her sanctuary ever since its owner, a lonely old woman, rescued her from neglect when she was only eight-years-old.

When her benefactor’s grandson, Greg Buchanan, discovers that Tillie has been exploiting his grandmother’s memory by putting out cookbooks and advertisements claiming Gram haunts the house, he vows to debunk the innkeeper’s claims. Until he discovers that Tillie is not what he expected.

Greg has a hidden agenda of his own as he came here to prove that Jesse James returned to the house long after he was believed dead. But proving that theory without Tillie thinking he’s off his rock might be harder than he thought. Does the infamous outlaw and Gram have something brewing in the hideout—like finding a happily ever after for two workaholics who need each other?

Jesse’s Hideout is the start of a new and totally different series for Kallypso Masters. Masters tells us the tale of Tillie Hamilton a rural Kentucky B&B owner who’s house was once a hideout for the infamous Jesse James.
She was left the house by the woman that recused her as a small child. She can still feel her spirit in the house and has used her memory of Mrs. Foster to help bring people into the house since she had it converted to a B&B.
Greg Buchanan is a architect from Minneapolis, who believes that Tillie is a charlatan and is exploiting his grandmother’s memory by telling people that she is haunting the house. He vows to prove that she is lying while also proving that the things written in her journals about Jesse James are true.
I love reading a book that has places that I’ve been to before, seeing them from someone else’s perspective makes them new again. Growing up one county over from the places in the book makes me so happy!!
Tillie is a perfect example of a woman who just wants to live her life as simple as she can and bring joy to the people who come into her life through her B&B. She’s such a sweet and warm person, but really doesn’t like when she has to let others do for her.
Greg comes to the B&B believing that she is a bad person and learns that she really isn’t and learns to open his heart too.
The addition of Greg’s young son in the story is wonderful and brings out so much more from both of these characters.
We also see the spirits of Mrs. Foster and Jesse James himself in the story. The transition between the scenes of living and the spirits is seamlessly written and does not make the story start and stop. These two spirits trying to bring these lonely hearts together is so sweet and the story behind why they want these two together fits the story perfectly.
Masters writing in these story is so much softer, but it does not take away from her storytelling ability it enhances it!! I love this new direction and can’t wait for the next book, new spirits, new characters and a new Kentucky County.

#WOTR #Review – Forbidden Desire (Lee County Wolves #3) by Teresa Gabelman

Forbidden Desire (Lee County Wolves) Book #3

From the moment Marcus Foster saw Roxy Patel, he knew she was his mate. Remaining patient because of her troubled past, he was determined to build her trust. She was his and nothing would change that, not even time.

Leaving her past behind, Roxy refused to remain a broken shell of a woman. Determined to start afresh, moving to a new town was just what she needed. With the help of her new friends, and a wolf shifter wanting to make her his own, all Roxy needed was the chance to thrive again.

Goodreads

Amazon

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

I am so in love with these shifters and was so excited to get Marcus book. He is so dedicated and patient waiting on his mate and Roxy was awesome when she let her guard down and the sass came out.

Roxy was in hiding from her husband she was scared to leave town for any reason afraid he would find her. I loved that we saw two side to Roxy the shy quite girl to the red head temper standing up for herself and others no matter who or what they were.  Shoo big bad wolf. She showed she has a good arm by throwing both punches and sticks.

Marcus knew from the moment he saw her what she was to him but she would not entertain any thoughts of being with someone else while she is married. I loved how he listened to what she said and figured out what she liked and acted upon that.

This was not all just about Marcus and Roxy there was so much going on. The town was rebuilding and they gained a few new shifters. One of which was Taz who laid down the law with another shifter when it came to a certain female wolf.  Wiggles eyes I think I may have found the one I’m claiming. I enjoyed seeing all the brothers and their families even if one did have a strange food craving.

I cannot wait for the next book to see who it will be about there are so many new characters to get to know.   They are all so fun to read and you really just want them to all find their perfect mate.

#WOTR #Review #BDSM – Resisting My Submission by Jenna Jacob

They say first impressions mean everything. Either Maximus “Max” Gunn didn’t get the memo or he didn’t care. The gorgeous, muscle-bound Dominant’s assumption that I, Mistress Sammie, was a submissive set my blood boiling. I wanted to drive the toe of my coveted Louis Vuitton stilettos between his legs—and bring him to his knees.

But anger wasn’t the only burning emotion Max ignited inside me. The potent sexual attraction we share threatened to burn me alive, too. Unwilling to cede our Dominance, the battle for control raged like a third world war, both in and out of the dungeon. It would take a coup d’état for love to conquer our drive to command.

But when Max learns the secrets of my past, and attempts to heal my scars, I don’t know if I’ll be able to still the battle…or fall willingly to my knees.

 

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

AHHHH Mistress Sammie and Master Max….What an explosive couple we have in this book.  Jenna did a great job nailing down the emotion and the hurt that Sammie has over why she left her submissive side behind her.  I was so hurt for her.  I mean I can totally SEE WHY she needed the have control even if she was really a sub at heart.

Max is totally attracted to Sammie and confused at why this sub was a Domme???  It just didn’t add up for him.  When he pushes and pushes and finally pushed his way in to her safe sanctuary one night and finds out her pain and secret….my heart hurt for her.

Max totally knew what to do and how to treat Sammie to get her to realize there is nothing wrong with embracing a new Master just like it’s still ok to love her old one.  I loved this story like mad crazy.  Jenna’s writing just flows off the page and before you know it the story is over leaving you sad because you are now stuck waiting again for the next book!!

One promise.
One forever.

One look and I knew Cole was mine. My dark rebel in leather. My powerhouse of passion, devastating smiles, and impulsiveness.
When his job sends him overseas, he promises to return to me.
A promise that’s destroyed in the most irrevocable way.

Two years later, an arrogant suit invades my heartbroken loneliness.

Clean-cut and stern, Trace is everything Cole wasn’t.
At first, he’s a job that will rescue my dance company. But as he intrudes on my life, our hostile relationship evolves.
He knows I’m still in love with Cole, but his dedication is my undoing.

Then a catastrophic moment changes everything.

Promises resurface.
Lies entangle.
And an impossible choice shatters my world.

I love two men, and I can only have one.


Two is a Lie

Two lies.
Two men who don’t share.

I never stopped loving Cole. Not when he left me. Not when he disappeared for three years. Not when he crashed back into my life in a violent explosion of testosterone and fury.
His sudden reappearance questions everything I thought I knew, including how I came to love another man.

Trace is an intoxicating breeze of seduction over ice. My rock. My second chance at forever.
And he’s committed to annihilating the competition.

The battle that ensues wrenches me back and forth between them.
Fighting and fucking.
Resisting and submitting.

Together, they entangle me in a web of lies, rivalry, and desire that weaves as deeply as their devotion to me.

I love two men, and if I can only have one, I choose none.

Three means war.
Three sides vying for forever.

Cole.
My first love.
The bad boy with the dangerous smile and passionate temper draws attention like a lit fuse on dynamite. But his dark molten eyes spark only for me.

Trace.
My second chance.
Over six feet of Norse god in a tailored suit, he calculates every move and seizes my hungry breaths with an iron fist.

Me.
The free-spirited dancer, torn between two men with no resolution in sight.
I tried leaving, staying, refusing, and surrendering.
What options do I have left?

I love two men, and I do the only thing I can. I fight.

#review #ReleaseDay – Tempting Justice by Fiona Archer

 

Tempting Justice (Sons of Sydney, #2)

He’s sworn to uphold the law

His reckless behavior as a child caused the deaths of his entire family. On the lonely Sydney streets, the orphan found friends. Found “brothers.” Never again will Seattle Homicide Detective Heath Justice break the rules and risk his new family. Order and discipline govern his life…until he meets a curvaceous redhead. With two ugly murder cases to solve, the last thing he needs is this disconcertingly lovely, whirlwind of chaos, yet…charmed by her wit and intelligence, Heath can’t resist.

She believes rules are meant to be broken

Deep into writing a murder mystery, author London Shaw is shocked when she herself is implicated in a homicide. She can’t believe the ever-so-authoritarian Detective Heath Justice expects her to simply ignore the crime and go on about her business. Not happening. Although the man’s whiskey rough voice, cuffs, and masterful touch could melt any woman’s resistance—and does—she has a craving to do a little investigating herself.

When all or nothing is your only play

When Heath’s murder investigation threatens a far-reaching conspiracy, everyone he cares for becomes their target—including the woman he’s come to love.

Tempting Justice by Fiona Archer

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

Oh boy the Justice Brothers are back!  This time Heath Justice meets his match is a romance writer who happens to be his new partner’s sister, London.  London is all spunk, sass, and determination which of course our Heath find super attractive!  You can only imagine the fun this story will you take you.

Heath and the Derek, his new partner, go to have some breakfast at his parent’s house when he spies someone breaking in….he goes to arrest said suspect, after a quick frisking of course, when he is informed of who she is!!  The thunder bolts strike both at the same time and the attraction is pretty instant that even gran can see it 😊  The couple begin to see each other while dealing with the murder cases that keep getting throw his way.  One of the murders directly affects his family as its Harper’s father.  The guys go on the case to solve the case while getting thrown a lot of curve balls alone the way.

I love the fact that the mystery aspect of the story as just as important as the love story.  Fiona does a great job weaving both story lines and keeping you invested in the characters and the “who done it”.  Everything is well crafted and definitely kept me guessing “who and why” through the story while also saying “yes and please” to the story of Heath and London!!

Fiona Archer writes erotic romance filled with masterful Aussie alpha heroes and teams them with sassy heroines who limit their submissive side to the bedroom. She lives in sunny environs of Sydney, Australia, and is harassed by a flock of wild cockatoos that take over the back yard each afternoon, demanding their feed. Her favorite hobbies include watching Nathan Fillion on television, shopping for that ever-elusive perfect shade of lipstick, and drinking iced coffee.

#Review – Existential (Fallen Aces MC #4) by: Max Henry

Title: Existential
Series: Fallen Aces MC #4
Author: Max Henry
Genre: MC Romance Suspense
Release Date: April 18, 2017 


How much suffering can a man withstand before he finally breaks? A question I used to ask myself often. Now I know the answer. 

As president of the Fallen Aces MC Fort Worth chapter, I’m looked to for guidance in times of crisis. I’m expected to set personal grievances aside and lead by example. Yet how can I do that when those grievances robbed me of my family, my life? My reason to be at the head of the table? 

My father: murdered. My baby sister: killed the same day. And my other sister? A mystery. I’m drowning in my desolation and yet nobody seems to care. Or maybe it’s the fact I won’t let them close enough to help? Either way, my losses are my own, and I’ll deal with them the only way I know how—by punishing myself. 

I’ve got it all figured out, at least, I thought I did. Until one woman, a traveller passing by, unravels the master plan. I see it in her eyes, the same distance, the same feeling that she doesn’t belong—that her time here is wasted. 

One woman who mirrors me in every way, and suddenly I find a reason to hold off the reaper a little longer. A reason to stay at the head of the table. A reason to show those who’ve hurt me that, although they brought the beast to its knees, I won’t lay down to die without a fight. 

Existential is book number four in the Fallen Aces MC series, but can be read as a standalone.



Melinda’s Review

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

Wow! What happens when you lose your family to your enemy but you are the leader of an MC and everyone looks to you for answers? Well let me tell you Hooch starts to self-destruct until the free spirit Dagne is brought to his doorstep.

Hooch is the president of the Fort Worth Chapter of the Fallen Aces MC. He lost his dad and sister on the same day. He is on a mission to do anything not to feel anymore.  I have to say I was not sure I was going to love this brooding man.

Dagne lives life as it comes she goes where ever the wind takes her and this time it was on the back of Digits bike to Fallen Aces MC. She learned quickly that they do not bring out the welcoming committee and red carpet when someone new shows up.

Hooch was not the nicest neither were certain women in the club but man could she hold her own when the time was needed.  Hooch gave her odd jobs that were usually saved for prospects but she never complained and did a great job.

The chemistry between Hooch and Dagne was great. Hooch and Dagne carved their way to my heart. A few of the Butcher Boys made appearances it was nice to get to see them.  Chan I just say the laundry room scene about broke me.  The story line and the twist that Max Henry put in this one had me flipping pages it was great.  I cannot wait for more of this series.

A few of my favorites:

My arms slip lower to his waist, and in the confines of the clubhouse laundry room, I finally find peace.

All this time I’ve been searching for a place that sets my soul at ease, when all along it was a person.

I can’t place a finger on what it is this traveler possesses that nobody has before her, but I know I need it. I’ve lost direction in life, and without her to steer me toward the sunrise I’d be forever lost in the dark, dank depths of my mind.

When I love something, I protect it with all I’ve got.


“The author has written an amazing story with so many twists and turns, suspense, and mystery that it keeps you intrigued and on the edge of your seat.” – My Timeout Book Blog

“It is packed with action, suspense and romance. The writing style is smooth and flows nicely between each POV.” – United Indie Book Blog

“Another gripping addition to this series. Be prepared for and intense ride. A definite recommend.” – Reader Review

He reaches out and threads his fingers under mine, bringing our joined hands between us on the floor. “Do you think it’s weak if a man admits his fears?”


I frown, squeezing his hand tight. “No.” Why would he even think that? “I think it’s honorable. It takes so much bravery to admit you have faults.”

“You think?”

“I know.” After all, aren’t I the authority on keeping faults a secret?

He sniffs, staring at the toes of his boots where they rest against the base of the washer. “Since everything went to shit last year, I get … I guess the only way to describe it is angry at myself.”

“What for? Do you blame yourself for what happened?”

His head drops back again, and he closes his eyes as his thumb traces a path on the back of my hand. “Yeah, but I know I shouldn’t. Still, knowin’ what I’m thinkin’ is wrong doesn’t make it go away. I still blame myself for everything, still hate myself for it.”

“That’s natural, though. You went through something traumatic, from what you’ve said of it, so you’ve got strong reactions that need a place to rest.”

“I went on a bender after they died,” he explains, opening his eyes to stare at the ceiling. “Drank, binged on coke, picked fights with my friends, and it wasn’t until I couldn’t remember what it was like to be straight that I finally realized why I did it.”

“Distraction?”

“To die.” 

A lump lodges in my throat as I take him in. At face value he’s strength and dominance. He’s a huge guy, intimidating to those who don’t know him, with his black clothing, leather, and piercings. He puts out an image of power, over others, and himself. But underneath it all he hides this.

“Don’t,” I utter. “Don’t say that again.”

“Why?” He rolls his head to look me in the eye. “It’s the truth, Dagne. I don’t want to do this anymore. Every day is hard. I wake up wishin’ it was time to go to sleep again, dreadin’ the day before it’s even happened.” His face moves through frustration and anger, glimpses of pain and despair between. “You have any idea what it’s like to just want to curl up in a ball and pretend the world doesn’t exist?”

“Yeah, I do,” I say. “I also know what it’s like to want to die. To know you’re too gutless to do it yourself, so you wish for something that’ll do it for you, like an illness, an accident, or a masochistic fucking father who hates the fact you breathe the same air as him.” Hooch’s eyes go wide, and I realize in that moment tears streak my cheeks. But fuck it—he needs to hear it. “I also know what it’s like to be hurt so bad that you finally believe that day has come, and in that second your foolishness and selfish thoughts come back to haunt you. What it’s like to realize when you’re faced with your own mortality that you don’t want to die … you just wish you were someone else, living another life.”

“Dagne—”

“Ah.” I lift my finger to stop him. “Nope. I’m not finished, mister.”

A small smile plays at the corner of his lips, and he reaches out to wipe my tears. “Carry on.”

“What you have to face is that you have the power to be somebody else. Fuck what your head tells you, Hooch. Your mind is a goddamn liar. It feeds off your fear, shows you your flaws while hiding your strengths. If you’re not happy,” I say, jabbing him in the chest, “change it. Do something about it. But don’t quit.”

“I’ve tried.” He captures my hand, focusing on the flesh of my palm as he traces the lines with his finger. “I really have, but my battery’s run dry, girl.”

“No,” I say, shaking my head. “It hasn’t. You just haven’t found what charges it yet.”

Max is the author of dark, and highly emotional romance. Her Butcher Boys series is centered around a group of ex-street kids who have teamed up with an indebted motorcycle club to take down a notorious drug lord. And her new series, the Fallen Aces MC, is a spin-off from this dark and dangerous world. Her writing has been described as ‘gripping’, and ‘addictive’, taking you on an ’emotional roller coaster ride’.

Originally born and bred in New Zealand, Max now resides with her family in beautiful and sunny Queensland, Australia. Life with two young children can be hectic at times, and although she may not write as often as she would like, Max wouldn’t change a thing. When she’s not engrossed in her dark and twisted fictional worlds, she can be found enjoying the outdoors while 4wd-ing with her family.

The Alpha’s Secret Family (Howls Romance #3) by Jessie Lane

I grabbed this book off Amazon.

So I grabbed this book because of 2 things….shifters and Jessie.  I love her PNR worlds and so of course I wouldn’t pass up on this book either.

Our Alpha Pack Leader, Stone, sees the new salon owner in town and his wolf informs him that she is HIS.  Period.  He spends a good portion of the book trying to get her to go out with him.  I loved the ways he tried and the banter between the two.  The book is pretty quick and insat-love but hey its shifters so that is cool with me.  Ya know the whole “Mine” thing they do!!

The book then kind of splits into a mystery after Stone and Dia are dating.  It seems someone is after Dia and Stone must protect his mate at all costs.

I loved the references to a certain Princess movie that I think every woman loves.  I also loved the cray over the top alpha stuff that Stone does because let’s face ladies, we do love the over the top alpha stuff!!  But seriously, if you like Jessie’s other books and you want to read a fun, sexy and uick read, this book is a good read.

Jessie Lane is a best-selling author of Paranormal and Contemporary Romance, as well as, Upper YA Paranormal Romance/Fantasy.

She lives in Kentucky with her two little Rock Chicks in-the-making and her over protective alpha husband that she’s pretty sure is a latent grizzly bear shifter. She has a passionate love for reading and writing naughty romance, cliff hanging suspense, and out-of-this-world characters that demand your attention, or threaten to slap you around until you do pay attention to them.

She’s also a proud member of the Romance Writers of America (RWA)

From the moment Marcus Foster saw Roxy Patel, he knew she was his mate. Remaining patient because of her troubled past, he was determined to build her trust. She was his and nothing would change that, not even time.

Leaving her past behind, Roxy refused to remain a broken shell of a woman. Determined to start afresh, moving to a new town was just what she needed. With the help of her new friends, and a wolf shifter wanting to make her his own, all Roxy needed was the chance to thrive again.

I was given a copy of the book from the author for an honest review.

*Purrrr* oh Marcus you sweet and delicious shifter you!!  I gotta tell ya Hunter stole my heart but you had me giving some sideways glances because something about you just made me go HRMMMM.  Seeing you finally get that sassy but quiet red head was a great story.

Roxy has lived a life of horror and she is happy and content living in the shifter town.  She is hiding out from her past and doesn’t have any hope or dreams for a future even if a certain alpha brother doesn’t catch her eye.

We have a lot going on in the book.  The town is rebuilding from the last books destruction plus new shifters are wanting to join the pack ANNND let’s not forget about Roxy’s past coming back all thanks to a jealous townie.  So yeah, a lot happens in this book.  Its uber fast paced but the story of Marcus and Roxy is super sweet and emotional.  Marcus’ devastated to learn about her past and his over protective side really kicks in high gear for his mate.  Roxy gains so much strength and courage that we see her transform from the frightened girl to a strong, determined woman!!!  I Loved the banter between the two once all the cards were laid out on the table as far as it being a “them” vs a “you and me”.

There are so many character lines still open and hope that we discover the truth about Devon? Taz? Leda??  Please don’t leave us hanging for long Teresa!!
