Rating: 3.5 Stars

     Kailyn Flowers was always calm, rational, and controlled--until she ended up sprawled all over Daxton Hughes, the former actor she totally crushed on as a teenager. Then she did the unthinkable: She became a mortifying fangirl in five seconds flat, which may or may not have included professing her undying love. And oddly, he didn't run away. In fact, their meet cute led to a friendship she never saw coming. Of course, she never saw his betrayal coming, either...
     Now Dax needs her help. As guardian to his thirteen-year-old sister, he's in way over his head. And though Kailyn hasn't forgiven Dax, she isn't heartless enough to make him fend for himself, either. Soon their friendly meetings turn into flirty dinner dates, and Kailyn can feel their chemistry is as explosive as ever. But how can she possibly let down her guard again to a guy who has heartbreak written all over him?


     What I can say about this book is that it was as the title suggested, it was a cute read. I found myself laughing and/or smiling at almost every chapter. It was like watching life pass. You had awkward moments that make you feel sorry for the person going thru them and wishing you could help them but at the same time wanting to laugh out loud because you are that horrible human being (shhh I'm guilty too).

     It was a well written book with a touching story thrown in (I have never read a story like Dax and Emme's (I've read stories of the aftermath of such a situation but not as it was happening) and I liked how Kaitlyn was all about helping young kids not go thru what she did.

     What I didn't like much about this book was that it was way too predictable for me and also I was lead to believe this was a seriously hot book but the scenes with this characters (which don't start after more than 50% into the book) to me where more "fade to black" than anything else so I was kind of disappointed.

     Other than that it was a good read if you want something light-hearted and with a little more story that the main romance.

     In Howling for You, Jeff Christopher is a shapeshifter and all of Chicago's Cadogan House of Vampires. For a long time, Jeff had eyes only for the beautiful Fallon Keene. Unfortunately, she is the only sister of the lethal North American Central Pack Apex Gabriel Keene. But fate takes a hand when the pack's totem is stolen, and Fallon enlists Jeff's help to retrieve it before the pack is thrown into chaos. Can she and Jeff find the totem and restore order before it's too late? And will Jeff finally be able to prove himself to the only person he truly loves?
     In Lucky Break, Merit and Ethan are in desperate need of some alone time, but their attempt at a romantic getaway is quickly interrupted when one of Ethan's vampire friends shows up at their door - covered in blood and accused of killing her shifter husband. Now, Merit and Ethan must put their passion on pause to figure out who's really responsible for the murder before all hell breaks loose...


     Jeff! I got me some sexy Jeff Christopher story!

     I have to say that Jeff is most definitively my favorite secondary character in these stories. He is cute, charming, and hella genius and funny. I was so happy when he got together with Fallon although there was something to their story that was hinted at but never mentioned as to why they weren't together. But then they were and I needed more on that story.

     Well, I got it and I have to say that I loved every second of their HEA.

     We also get a second part to this book in which Merit and Ethan want to go on a vacation away from the Chicago drama and are invited to the guest house of one of Ethan's longtime friends. But when they get there is not for a romantic getaway but to solve a mystery of murder.

     I liked the insight of what might have started the feud between the vampires and the werewolves (or at least a fraction of it) and what sacrifices these two races are willing to make to be happy with each other. It also gives me a look-see of what Eliza and Connor might go thru on the spin-off.

     Vampires generally aren’t afraid of things that go bump in the night, but Merit and Ethan are extra jumpy after a recent attack by a dark sorcerer. So when they learn that someone is messing with graves in Chicago’s cemeteries, stealing skulls and snatching souls, they fear that their powerful foe might be back for even more magical vengeance.
     But after a specter begins haunting Cadogan House—and targeting vampires—they realize that their being taunted by an altogether different sort of monster. A ghoulish villain straight out of the Windy City’s urban legends is on the prowl—and he won’t stop until he’s killed again...


     When I started this story I was very happy that I got to see more of the necromancer. When she first appeared she was pregnant but in this story, she already had her daughter and she is not happy that someone is disturbing graves and so she calls Merit and Ethan.

     What I like about this story is that you get some more insight into the captain on Cadogan House's head of security (sorry I can't recall his name at the moment). I like Merit thought his room was going to be all western and stuff.

     We also get to meet some Ghostbuster types and boy do they spell trouble. I wouldn't have imagined anything that happens but I should have. Is not like this is a novel to stretch out the mystery.

     Merit, Sentinel of Chicago's Cadogan House, is pregnant. She's ready to meet her daughter, but also very excited about the possibility of seeing her feet again. But trouble always seems to find her...
     Ethan and Merit have been married for eight months, and they're preparing for life-with-baby. Ethan's battling his overprotectiveness, while Merit's hoping she can figure out how to be a loving parent given her family's chilliness.
     While out on an evening walk, Merit stops to help a human in need, only to find herself under attack. A sociopath with a debt figures pregnant Merit is an easy target--and Cadogan House would pay handsomely for her return...


     This is a nice view of some of Merit's pregnancy. But what I really liked about this book was the side story of Jonas and Cadogan's House cook (who I can't remember the name of at this moment).

     I was always rooting for the side characters to find someone to love or to end up with whomever they had a crush on. I am glad I got to see why Margery? Margaret? wasn't open to Jonas' interest and that she was able (with the help of the Cadogan House and all the vampires she loves) to get thru it and find her true love.

     I also was glad to see into that intimate moment in which Ethan and Merit decided on baby Eliza's name. It was very touching and I think it was about time that Ethan had something good happen to him.

     A woman in danger…
     Serena Brooks is a bestselling author of erotic fiction. She knows how to write a happy ending but hasn’t managed to find one of her own. Divorced and alone, she has no one to turn to when a stalker begins to threaten her life. The cops don’t believe her. Her ex-husband thinks she’s making the whole story up. She has no one left to turn to except a pair of hired bodyguards. They promise to guard her body, but no one can protect her heart.
     Two men in search of love…
     Adam Miles and Jacob Dean are halves of a whole. They’ve spent their entire adult lives searching for the one woman who can handle them both. Adam is the playful, indulgent lover, while Jacob is the possessive, loving Dom. When Serena comes into their lives, Adam is certain that she’s the one. But Jacob’s past comes back to haunt them all. He is suspicious of Serena’s story, and his concerns are driving a wedge between him and Adam. But when the stalker strikes, they will have to come together or lose each other forever… 


     I have to say that although I enjoyed this story I was a bit disappointed.

     Adam and Jake have been partners for a very long time. So long that they don't even need to say words to communicate what they need from the other, just a few looks and gestures say a lot. I liked this brotherly connection since their families are kind of assholes.

     Serena as with many a beginning for series like this is curious about the lifestyle and has some strong desires that no one understands until she meets these two men. She needs protection from a stalker and the security firm that is hired assigns them to her.

     I have to say it was a very entertaining read and although I kind of figured out who her stalker was (there was a twist in there that I did not expect) I enjoyed and I can't wait to read some of the other characters stories, especially Ian's and Alex/Eve.

     What disappointed me was that there was not a lot of the lifestyle included. You have some BDSM aspects and some menage but I wanted more. I needed more! Aside from that, I can't wait to read the next book and see what is in store for these characters next.

     As the Chicagoland Vampires series continues, Merit and Ethan find themselves in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, where winning may require the ultimate sacrifice... 
     A vampire’s grudges don’t stay dead long...
     Merit is one of Chicago's most skilled vampire warriors; these days, she doesn't scare easily. But she and Master vampire Ethan have made a new and powerful enemy, and he won't give up until he owns the Windy City.
     With his last plan thwarted, he's more determined than ever to watch Cadogan burn. Ethan has put the House's vampires on high alert, but their enemy will stop at nothing, including pitting vampire against vampire...
     In this deadly game of cat-and-mouse, the stakes are life or death—and winning might mean sacrificing everything...


     Again one of the things I like about this series is that once they deal with an enemy that enemy not just disappear. It is an enemy that spans a couple of books.

     In the previous book Merit, Ethan and all of their friends deal with a powerful man on Chicago and thwart his plan. Now he is back and more dangerous than ever.

     Another thing that I like about this series is that although it has been a year since Merit was turned into a vampire it feels like so much more time has gone by.

     The end of this series is coming and although I am sad about it I feel like it is time to end it. Not because it is a bad series but because I feel like if it is extended much more than it is at this point people will start to hate it.

Rating: 4.5 Stars

     A wallflower gets seduction tips from a playboy athlete—until love changes the rules. 
     Socially awkward Joellen Bixby has a date every Saturday—with her cat, a pint of ice cream, and fantasies of the way-too-handsome Michael Maddox. She’d give anything to win over the unattainable CEO of her firm, but how can she when she blends in so well with her cubicle? The answer may be closer than she thinks. 
     Cameron McGregor is a cocky, tattooed Scottish rugby captain who just moved in next door. He’s not Jo’s type—at all—but the notorious playboy is offering to teach the wallflower everything he knows about inspiring desire. Though a lot of women have rumpled Cam’s kilt, Jo is special. Far from the ugly duckling she thinks she is, in Cam’s eyes she’s sharp, funny, and effortlessly sexy. Now, thanks to him, Jo is blooming with confidence and has the man of her dreams within reach. 
     Unfortunately for Cam, he’s just helped to push the woman of his dreams into the arms of another man—and now he’s in the fight of his life to keep this beauty from getting away.


     I got this book from a subscription box called Romance Reveal Book Box. The first thing that called to me about this book was the cover, but I have to confess that it would not have been a book that I would have picked by myself.

     That been said, I am very glad that it came in the subscription box because I really enjoyed it.

     So we have Jollene Bixby, an IT kind of girl for her company, who has been in love with her boss for 10 years. She is a plus-size woman that doesn't think she has a chance in capturing the attention of her boss.

     Enter Cameron McGregor a Scottish rugby player who is in the States lying low. Cam is staying at his cousin's apartment which is across the hall from Jollene. He makes her life impossible and at the same time much more lively. He also convinces her to let him "help" her to get her boss.

     I loved this book from beginning to end. It was funny, sweet, and had you at the edge of your seat just wanting to know what other problems this couple could get into.

     I really enjoyed J. T. Geissinger's writing style. I will definitely be picking up the other books on this series and I recommend that you do too.

Merry and Bright

Genre: Women's Fiction
Format: eBook

Rating: 3.5 Stars

     Merry Knight is pretty busy these days. She’s taking care of her family, baking cookies, decorating for the holidays, and hoping to stay out of the crosshairs of her stressed and by-the-book boss at the consulting firm where she temps. Her own social life is the last thing she has in mind, much less a man. Without her knowledge, Merry’s well-meaning mom and brother create an online dating profile for her—minus her photo—and the matches start rolling in. Initially, Merry is incredulous, but she reluctantly decides to give it a whirl. 
     Soon Merry finds herself chatting with a charming stranger, a man with similar interests and an unmistakably kind soul. Their online exchanges become the brightest part of her day. But meeting face-to-face is altogether different, and her special friend is the last person Merry expects—or desires. Still, sometimes hearts can see what our eyes cannot. In this satisfying seasonal tale, unanticipated love is only a click away.


     OMG, what a great read!

     I have been wanting to read Debbie Macomber for a long time but I haven't been able to so far. A co-worker had just finished reading this book and she recommended it to me knowing how much I like romance and I ended up borrowing it from her.

     From the first moment that you meet Merry and her family, you cannot help but fall in love with them. Especially her brother Patrick.

     Jayson for his part is a dichotomy of a hard-ass boss and sweet thoughtful male.

     There were a couple of things that bother me about this book. One of them is that although the book expands about a month by the time they meet in person it feels like insta-love.

     But this does not take away from how much I enjoyed the book it is just a couple of quirks that are my own.

     I really recommend this book if you want a light sweet quick read since I finished the book in about a day.

Miss Mechanic

Rating: 3 Stars

Two mechanics. One rivalry.
She’ll prove she’s as good as she says she is.
He’ll prove her place isn’t under the hood.
It’s over it.
​
     “Don’t let the b*****ds get you down.”
     For twenty-six years, I lived by my daddy’s motto. Which is why “Mechanic Wanted” is all it takes for me to apply for the job at the garage we once owned. 
     And I meet the biggest b*****d of them all.
     Dexter Ryne. Hotter than Hell in July and a firm believer that my place is on reception, taking phone calls and looking pretty. Not getting dirty under the hood of a car. 
     Determined to prove each other wrong, we make a deal.
     I have three weeks to prove my worth as a mechanic. If I don’t, I’m on telephone duty.
     If I do, he’ll accept defeat and make my job permanent. 
     Now, all I have to do is fight my attraction to the cocky little… beep.
     Problem is, an engine isn’t the only thing he knows how to make purr…


     I have read Emma Hart a few times and I've loved every one of those reads. This book although a fun and sexy read for some reason I didn't love as much as her other books.

     Not to say I didn't like it, I just for some reason was hung up on the fact that there were so many profanities on this read. Don't get me wrong I'm not a prude that can't handle the bad words on my reads, I just was too focused on that fact to actually enjoy the read.

     It might be the fact too that I was wondering how the narrators felt about saying them so much, lol.

     The story is about this woman Jamie to prove to Dexter that just because she dressed sexy and was very feminine didn't mean she couldn't do her job as a mechanic. That she could do it and do it better than him.

     There were many hilarious scenes and some hot scenes too and I am pretty sure I would have enjoyed this book (even give it 4 stars) if I had read it instead of listening to it.

     But lesson learned and really anything Emma Hart I recommend it if you are looking for a fun fast flirty read and don't mind the F-bomb being thrown around like it's candy.

This copy was provided by the publisher via Hidden Gems Books for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of it or the content of my review.

   This book started ion an interesting note and I liked the concept of it. We have this race of aliens that are cat-like and this insect race and all the makings of a great story. And it would have been if I had read the series that this one spins off.

     About half the book the characters mention many things that happened in the other series and I was a bit lost. If you are interested in this series I recommend you read the other series CAT STAR CHRONICLES.

     That said I liked what little I understood of this book and although I know there are people mad because of a supposed cheating I think it was done correctly in this instance since Larry was never intimate with this other person. Their relationship was superficial on both their sides it seems.

     I loved Brak and I found him hilarious at times. I loved the mission they went on and I just wish that I could have read the other series first so I could appreciate this book more.

A Most Scandalous Proposal

Genre: Historical Romance
Format: Audiobook
Source: Library Loan
Rating: 4 Stars

     After watching her beloved sister Sophia pine over the ton’s Golden Boy for years, Miss Julia St. Claire has foresworn love and put herself firmly on the shelf. Unfortunately, her social-climbing mother and debt-ridden father have other ideas, and jump at the chance to marry Julia off to the newly-named Earl of Clivesden…the man of Sophia’s dreams.
     Since resigning his Cavalry commission, Benedict Revelstoke has spent his time in London avoiding the marriage mart. But when he discovers that the Earl of Clivesden has set Julia in his sights, Benedict tries to protect his childhood best friend from the man’s advances—only to discover more than friendship driving his desire to defend her. He surprises them both with the force of his feelings, but when she refuses him and her father announces her betrothal, he fears he’s lost her forever—until Julia approaches him with a shocking scheme that will ruin her for all respectable society…
     …and lead them into an exquisite world of forbidden pleasures.


     I liked so many things about this book but since it was an audiobook let me start with that. I loved Veida Dehmlow and how she did the different character voices. I also thought as soon as she started narrating that she had the perfect voice for this type of books. She sounds like she lived in the times the books are set in. I just loved everything about that and I will definitively add her to my very short list of narrators I like.

     Next, I'll mention that I loved the fact that we had the main story of Julia and Benedict and then we get a "short story" integrated into the main tale about Sophia and Highgate. I like this fact because I didn't want Sophia to suffer because of not having the man of her dreams.

     Lastly, I'll talk about Benedict and Julia's story. I find that a book that is friends to lovers has to be well crafted because more often than not the authors start the book with the friendship going strong and as it transitions to something more either the friendship is gone or the friendship is too strong and you can't see the characters as something else but friends. This book didn't have that problem and I was able to see Benedict and Julia's friendship blossom and become something more at the same time the friendship was there on the background although not overwhelming the romance.

     I was also a bit sad that Julia and Sophia's mother was such a vain person although we see throughout the book that she's not a bad person, just a victim of the circumstances of her birth and what the Ton thought was a proper lady and such.

     I will be reading the next installment of this series for sure.

Maid for Love

Series: The McCarthys of Gansett Island (#1)
Published by: HTJB, Inc.

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Format: eBook
Source: Free (Amazon)
Rating: 4 Stars

     Maddie Chester is determined to leave her hometown of Gansett Island, a place that has brought her only bad memories and ugly rumors. Then she’s knocked off her bike on the way to her housekeeping job at McCarthy’s Resort Hotel by Gansett’s “favorite son,” Mac McCarthy. He’s back in town to help his father with preparations to sell the family resort and has no intention of staying long. When Mac accidentally sends Maddie flying over the handlebars, badly injuring her, he moves in to nurse her back to health and help care for her young son. He soon realizes his plans for a hit-and-run visit to the island are in serious jeopardy, and he just may be “maid” for love.


     This was s sweet story of small-town gossip and second chances at love. Although is a cliche about a poor woman (Madeline "Maddie" Chester) and the town's golden boy (Malcolm John "Mac" McCarthy Junior) it was still a great read for me. I laughed and I cried and I fell in love with Mac's will to help Maddie even when she was hell-bent against it.

     I loved that Mac was patient towards Maddie and her insecurities and that he didn't push her to be comfortable with her body, he just gave her time for her to come to terms with it and let Mac in at her own time. I really think it was very generous of him to offer to pay for the surgery, but only if she wanted it. With that, I think that she doesn't need it. He just showed her there that he isn't with her for her big breasts, that he likes her for her.

     Another thing I liked was that the author paved the way for the next book really well without taking away from Mac and Maddie's story, and I'm glad that this book is free because it leads me to this awesome series which I'll go ahead and buy book two. I can't wait for Joe and Janey's story, with that excerpt at the end I just have to read more!

Mistress of Scandal

Series: Greentree Sisters (#3)
Published by: Avon Books
March 27th, 2007
Genre: Historical Romance
Format: Mass Market Paperback
Source: Purchased
Rating: 5 Stars

     Proper, reserved Francesca detests chaotic London and one of its most infamous inhabitants: her birth mother, the notorious courtesan Madame Aphrodite. Lovingly raised by the devoted Lady Greentree, she's content to remain in Yorkshire, far from the scandalous parent whose life and profession shock . . . yet intrigue her. But a dark, dangerous stranger she rescues on the moors is awakening a most improper desire—causing Francesca to question whether she is more her mother's daughter than she ever wished to be.
     When Sebastian Thorne agrees to protect Aphrodite's estranged daughter from a dire threat emerging from her past, the fallen lord is unexpectedly seduced by Francesca's beauty. But a vigilante living on the shadowy edge of society has little hope to own such a prize—and unless he reclaims his abandoned title and lost honor, Sebastian will never get close enough to the bewitching lady to save her life . . . or win her passion.


     I loved this book so much. It is yet again proof of why I love this genre so much. I didn't know it was the third book in a trilogy but that didn't matter. It stands alone by itself although I'll be definitively reading the first two books.

     In this book, we have Miss Francesca Greentree, the youngest daughter of Aphrodite, a courtesan. When she was just but a child, Francesca and her two older sisters were kidnapped and it wasn't until many years later that they found out who their real mother was.

     Then we have Mr. Sebastian Thorn who is running from the past because he didn't like the person he was back then.

     Francesca’s real mother hires Mr. Thorn to figure out or I should say confirm her suspicion as to who kidnaped her daughters. He is warned that he will be in danger if he takes the job and so Sebastian meets Francesca after an attempt to end his life. The closer he gets to uncovering the truth the more danger he is in and by extension Francesca.

     Ms. Bennett had me at the edge of my seat trying to figure out everything and as more and more details came out I just needed to keep reading to confirm I made the right assumptions. The dynamic between Aphrodite and Francesca was heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. I loved how this story was presented and it was something a little different since this book makes reference to the fact that gas lighting was starting to make an appearance at the time.

     Like I mentioned I can’t wait to read the first two books on this trilogy and I might have found another to go author for this genre.

     One handywoman.
     One single dad.
     One set of twins.
     And the wall isn’t the only thing being drilled…
     I learned the hard way that being a handywoman isn’t easy. The questions, the stares—the assumption I’m the proud owner of a cock and balls. Not that it matters. I’ve proven over and over that I’m ready for anything the judgmental asses throw at me.
     Except the hot, single dad of twins who just moved to town.
     Brantley Cooper gets the shock of his life when I show up on his doorstep to fix up his kids’ new rooms. His son is confused why ‘the pretty lady has a drill,’ and his daughter has a new obsession—me.
     On paper, my job is easy. Go in, do their bedrooms, and leave.
     In theory, I’m spending eight hours a day with a guarded, sexy as hell guy, and I’m staying for dinner more often than I’m eating it alone, on my couch, with Friends re-runs.
     I shouldn’t be staying for dinner. I shouldn’t be helping him out with the twins. I shouldn’t be falling in love with tiny toes and dimpled cheeks.
     Oops…


     This was a fun and light read from the very beginning. I could not put it down.

     Kali Hancock is a home builder (handywoman) running the family business since her dad is semi-retired. She is damned good at her job but many people don't see past the fact she is a woman. But her satisfaction comes when she proves them she can do the same job as a man if not better.

     When Brantley Cooper contacted Hancock Construction(?) to fix his twins' rooms he was not prepared for Kali. From that first meeting on every encounter between these two was fun and flirty and full of laughter.

     I fell in love with the twin's antics and they stole my heart with their banter and their occurrences. It was heartening watching how Kali fell piece by piece in love with this two and their hot dad. I think Ms. Hart made the right choice in making Kali fall in love first with Eli and Ellie because of her thinking on children.

     I cried a couple of times especially when Portia was telling Kali how she came to love her and accept her for the daughter she never had.

     Emma Hart is a new to me author and I will definitively be trying her again.
