For me, there is nothing better than a romance novel set during the holidays! I absolutely adored this story, the fun loving characters and the holiday cheer.<br />

Keane and Willa met in high school, not that Keane remembers. Willa, on the other hand, will never forget. Years later, she still holds a grudge from the hurt she felt by Keane. But when he walks into Willa's pet shop, desperate for help with his aunt's cat, she can't say no to the charming Keane. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Keane is a sexy, strong, hands on real estate developer who takes on projects in the San Fransico area. Willa owns a pet shop and takes on "babysitting" four legged friends like the cat Keane is watching for his sick aunt. Since petunia the cat is not a fan of Keane, Willa has agreed to help out and watch her while he works. They become friends and then the attraction develops, but a relationship is not something Keane and Willa are used to or even strive for. They both had difficult childhoods and shy away from getting too close or involved. However, Keane is the smart one seeing the potential in their relationship and the beauty of falling in love. Which made me <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="c225634f-3f77-4dd1-b0b8-b50f1f534833" id="87980983-add8-4a60-87a7-1ebe30b2fcdc">fall</gs> for Keane even more! :X</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I loved all the characters and could see myself enjoying a Christmas party with their company. The realistic storyline was also a breath of fresh air. Don't get me wrong, I like a fairy-tale fantasy too, but sometimes it's nice to read a love story that could actually blossom in the real world. <br />
<br /></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
When the weather starts to cool and you want snuggle up with a good book, give Keane and Willa's story a try! :) This book is part of a series, but could be read as a standalone. I can't wait to read the other stories in the Heartbreaker Bay Novels. <br />

Stephens, for review, I thought I hit the literary jackpot! If you have read my blog before you would know my <strike></strike><strike></strike><strike>love</strike> obsession for Kellan Kyle, who happened to be created by the very same author. When I heard she was releasing a new book I couldn't wait to get my hands on it!! I would read anything she writes- grocery list, Post-it note, anything!! If she writes it, I want to read it and I know I won't be disappointed. Furious Rush was no exception. Move over Kellan Kyle, Hayden Hayes is my <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="cb7aa5f8-6809-4aae-bf78-dcfe4bd77b8e" id="8b7f2173-ea71-4297-a48d-0f9f8a73a021">new</gs>... Okay, maybe I shouldn't get too carried away, Kellan will forever be my favorite book boyfriend, but Hayden is definitely in my top 5! <br />

Mackenzie "Kenzie" Cox is the daughter of a motorcycle racing legend, Jordan Cox. In her rookie year racing she is under pressure to perform and bring in much needed money <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="921814c5-f601-4d3b-aca2-adfedf83978d" id="f063586a-fb22-4b03-8743-7477dcdcc385"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="921814c5-f601-4d3b-aca2-adfedf83978d" id="f063586a-fb22-4b03-8743-7477dcdcc385">for</gs></gs> the Cox Racing team owned by her father. The loss of the teams best rider and <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="3d5cf786-b3e5-4514-b169-c2567fb53245" id="1d45f068-feee-4222-8a5a-606344f42f9a"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="ed1353bc-c85d-4e68-9900-92586b78e465" id="3f68a7e4-cd51-4e63-b222-c41ec96aea24">sponsers</gs></gs>, Mackenzie was determined to win and save the team. After a falling out between her father and his best friend Keith Benneti, the two racing teams are banned from any contact with each other. One of the <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="0cd299ec-2683-4449-b043-fb9b81ca95ba" id="36be72de-64c8-450c-a19f-5b76fff14a16">Benneti's</gs> newest riders makes it a little difficult for her to follow that very important rule. Hayden Hayes, came from street racing to the professional world, but he also came with a bad reputation and a little mystery. Kenzie was undeniably attracted to him and at the same time despised him and the team he raced <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="5c411326-2472-4f76-ae18-1a4a855d99da" id="3b42ba84-823e-4cbb-b36b-ef7cb4ab3067">for</gs>, but she raced better when they were on the same track. She realized he could help her reach her fullest potential. Risking her career and her relationship with her father, she decided she needed Hayden more if she wanted to win. What she didn't expect, she would get so much more than a secret training partner.<br />
<br />
Holy Hotness!! I am not one for motorcycles, but I would jump on the back of his bike any day! ;) I also know nothing about motorcycle racing or had any interest, but the story that S.C. Stephens tells, makes it interesting, intriguing and exciting. A true page turner!! I couldn't read fast enough and at the same time I had to take my time and soak up every word. <br />
<br />
The sexual tension and chemistry between Hayden and Kenzie was intense. Many times I would (silently in my head, of course) scream just kiss already!!!! And when they finally succumbed it was so worth the wait! Wow! Powerful, sweet, sexy with a little danger mixed in. <br />
<br />
I do have one complaint about the story. It felt a little unfinished. There was no cliff hanger and the story wrapped up at the end, but I felt like there was more of the story to tell. Maybe that means a sequel??????? Let's hope my wish comes true. I could read about Hayden Hayes for days! ;) <br />

You don't just get one story, but a handful of side stories as well. They all interconnect to the two main characters, Erin and Slim. Not only did I fall for Slim and all his hotness, but also for all his friends on Gansett Island. I think I may want to relocate there!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After losing her twin brother, Toby, in the 9/11 attacks, Erin had difficulty with getting close to anyone. But when Slim entered her life she rethought her single life. The only problem is that Slim is a pilot and because of the way her brother died, she has a fear of flying. Her flying phobia is not the only issue, she has dealt with since her brother's death. But having Slim around, makes working through them all whole lot easier. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Slim has always been a commitment <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="3b9fc542-e5ee-4060-be7e-c2f6476ad2d4" id="d2567336-6d63-4ac0-b056-1971ad733c31">phobe</gs> since his high school relationship scarred him. He never stayed overnight after being with a woman and had no intention of ever settling down. His life and career also made it difficult. Half the year he spent up north on Gansett Island and in the winter months in Florida. However, after months of texts, Facetime and phone calls with Erin, he started to wonder if he could include a woman in his life permanently. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I absolutely adored Slim, he was a good guy from the beginning and stayed that way until the end! He was sweet, caring and supportive of Erin. He was sexy, romantic and was willing to do anything to make a relationship with Erin work. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am not sure how to sum up the other stories in this book. There isn't enough time to recap it all. I guess you'll have to read the book and find out for yourself ;) . They were just as sweet and romantic as the main story. Each couple had their own dramas and <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="003efd45-c61a-4ad0-a431-179a2d23b5f7" id="8d9c32aa-a773-47ae-a38a-80339eda9947">hardships but</gs> they worked through them together. It was a nice change to read a story where you like all the characters throughout the entire book! Usually you begin to hate the main characters <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="b829e8b2-99f0-4562-8481-65ed1c0a7987" id="3f4f1b1b-f50f-4777-b00c-28817b09a270">(</gs>usually the guy) until they start to redeem themselves.

<br />
Ella Shaw has been enamored with her best friend's brother, Tyler since they were kids. However, one night together when Ella was just eighteen, left her disappointed and embarrassed. Tyler, known for running when life got too difficult, was true to form when it came to the day after his night of passion with Ella. Years later Avery, Ella's best friend, enlists her brother to rescue her from a dangerous situation on the island of St. Lucia. Tyler was not happy that he would have to <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="d688c227-e91d-4b41-8da8-ab6c8f90d597" id="30551b8f-6732-4db6-ae42-94991ebc9bc4">face Ella</gs> and deal with their past, but would do anything to make his sister's worry disappear. <br />
<br />
Tyler may be a sexy, strong, dominating alpha male, but he has a soft and vulnerable side as well. That made me fall for him just a little bit more. :) Not all men are strong, brooding and ready at any time to save the world right?? Ella was also similar in that she could be strong when it was needed, but not so stubborn and accepted help when she had no choice. I think that is what made them so perfect for each other. They both have demons to fight and pasts <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="262bf8b9-311b-4330-9e2e-a66479a297ee" id="0395335b-3245-4626-ba12-98804d40f3a0">to overcome</gs>, but know that their connection and passion made it worth the fight. Tyler, especially fought against his fears of commitment and was determined to replace the bad memories Ella had of their time together. And boy did he! He can help me forget anytime! ;)<br />
<br />
The relationship between the Tyler and Ella was just as sexy as it was sweet! I loved watching the relationship blossom as well as the relationships of the Dare family. Sprinkle in some mystery and danger and you got yourself an intriguing and cute little story!<br />
<br />
This book was the perfect story to read from start to finish. Not too long and not too short. I spent my rainy day <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="369f9903-5455-421e-a388-fa072432a668" id="140e2465-804e-43a3-9575-8eaf54e872d7">off cuddled</gs> in bed with some tea and Tyler! :)<br />

If you have read my blog before, you may know my hatred for cliffhangers, But she warned me in the introduction that she had to live up to her name. So, with the last name Cliff, I was forewarned! Thankfully, I was able to read the first two back to back and the story wrapped up in the second one. There should be more to come following some of the other characters and I can't wait to dive into those! <br />
<br />
Despite the first book being a cliffhanger it still felt like each book was a separate story. The first you get to know Quinn and all his sexy <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="59f2f270-df30-4598-a622-5d6a4f73d63e" id="1e23dbe8-5725-4c21-bf78-9c8db4876905">badassness</gs> (I know not a real word, you get what I mean). And Lexi, the mafia princess. Don't let that description fool you, she's pretty down to earth while being a bad ass of her own.<br />
<br />
Ok, a very brief synopsis of Quinn:<br />
<br />
Quinn has a mission, bring Lexi (Alexis) back home safe. Lexi, threatened by her former boyfriend and childhood friend, was convinced running away was the answer to avoid trouble. Lexi's Dad was frantic and sought the help of his ex-military contact and his dog to track her down. Once Quinn set eyes on Lexi he knew she was more than a mission. He was in deep trouble....<br />
<br />
This book had it all, suspense, romance, and sexiness all wrapped up in the perfect cliffhanger :P<gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="1602dd3f-417a-4d72-ab30-387cf4e7d75a" id="2c9b54e3-357c-46f8-b5d7-a97bbe36bc43"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="dbcc98f0-5590-43e9-af80-c7b1a489b00b" id="1014a313-79b7-4028-b5ee-2fee5a99694c"> !</gs></gs> Like I said, I didn't mind the cliffhanger because I had the other one waiting for me. And <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="8e5d63ff-684c-404e-945d-f4d5b3cb7819" id="7f1618e2-a3cd-4061-a7c6-d6d46c233ebe"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="227903f8-720e-4c99-8a60-b8e3e6db6a26" id="145f2c1d-f742-4471-a6bf-56b7d98e1661">quess</gs></gs> what? So do you! I highly suggest, hunkering down for a weekend and diving into these babies. You will be sucked in just like I was.<br />
<br />
There's not much I can tell you about Quinn II without spoiling the first book, but trust me, you will want to continue on with Lexi, Quinn and Kimber! What I can say for two stories being related and following one after another, they were so different! But in a good way. The story line took turns I was not expecting and kept me reading into the wee hours of the morning. Hence, my hunkering down recommendation.<br />
<br />
Seriously, J.C. Cliff has a new reader and a new fan! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!<br />

<br />
Mastered reminded me a lot of the first series I ever read by Maya Banks, The breathless trilogy. It was hot, steamy, shocking and romantic. But this one has one difference and something I have never seen in any of her books. Normally, I would have been mad, but this time I understand. Curious? Well, I guess you will just have to read and find out. :) .<br />
<br />
Synopsis:<br />
Evangeline was a small town girl from Mississippi who moved to New York City in hopes to better provide for her parents. Her parents depended on her to help them after her dad was injured on the job. She shares a tiny apartment with three of her friends from home who work just as hard to make ends meet. After a disastrous relationship with a playboy named Eddie, her friends convinced her to make an appearance at very exclusive and "hard to get into" night club. Her friends wanted her to get noticed and have Eddie realize what he threw away by dumping Evangeline after he slept with her. Shocking to Evangeline, Eddie was not the only one who noticed her that night.<br />
<br />
Drake Donovon was the very successful, rich, gorgeous and dominating owner of Impluse. He noticed Evangeline the second she reached the doors to his club. Knowing she didn't belong in a place where she would be harassed and possibly taken advantage of, he made sure she was protected the moment she step foot in the club. And her protection was something he would see <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="622d7d74-7c9a-4c46-95c7-0af7e4a00d60" id="9a1c1180-4e33-4aff-8a29-a885d48b76e2">to</gs> everyday after. <br />
<br />
Reluctantly, Evangeline follows Drake's men to meet him. Drake doesn't waste <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="92b2d241-f0b5-41b5-b954-3db750cc3823" id="6847938b-d1b7-449c-a2a9-c3381fb1bd8e">any time</gs> showing her how she should be treated and worshipped unlike her Ex. From that moment on Drake would worship, cherish and own Evangeline. The naive, inexperienced and innocent Evangeline has to deal with the overwhelming new <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="217e8991-364e-4acb-bbdb-846a25fa8a6a" id="d0012a1f-d3ba-40e4-b81e-186d35168087"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="d4d895e1-3bf8-4cc9-9c05-94e2eb0a96d9" id="8ef6cfb5-e8fb-4e87-b00e-f1beca00982f">life</gs></gs> set before her.<br />
<br />
<br />
There is so much packed into this story and yet you feel like you need to know more. I was very leery of Drake through most of the story. Wondering if I could trust him and if and when he will make me angry. This is a romance book after all, of course he would. But could I forgive him? That has yet to be answered.... I <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="da4e5f29-653e-4b12-a2cc-54af07d7bf6c" id="d174cc7f-1ee9-435a-ab51-9937581aa38c">did, however</gs>, fall in love with some of <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="da4e5f29-653e-4b12-a2cc-54af07d7bf6c" id="be8a1384-cfc6-494b-b8d7-885f1237fb74">his</gs> men!

I think this one by far is my favorite Maya Banks book ever! And I have read a lot of her books! However, this is the first book for me in the series (not for long! ;)<gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="ca1e81f2-fd90-48fd-9ac0-bc9a0864d555" id="0bda0d8f-5a35-4417-b76a-cab244df5ac4"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="ca1e81f2-fd90-48fd-9ac0-bc9a0864d555" id="3276066a-84b2-4b13-ab63-0ecdb78c4471"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="a4d352da-67dc-4ee4-970e-58d54c6747bb" id="82586bd4-83a2-404a-b37e-8450661144d6"> )</gs></gs></gs> Like all of her series, each book is connected to the others, but can also be read as a stand alone. <br />
<br />
As for the main male character or the story's "Book Boyfriend". I HATED HIM!! Well, at first. Or maybe for the first half of the book. But I kept an open mind and figured he would change my opinion once he redeemed himself. He did and then I was rooting for him all the way!! :)<br />
<br />
I'm not going in depth with a synopsis because I want you to get the whole experience like I did. Since I hadn't read any books in this series I had no idea what to expect. And I was pleasantly surprised with how much I got into the action and adventure of the story. It was like watching a movie. A movie a guy would be interested in but with the sexy and romantic material that keeps us ladies wanting more!! Hmm. Now that's an idea, someone needs to make this book into a movie!!<br />
<br />
Very brief synopsis...<br />
<br />
Honor Cambridge found her calling as a relief worker in the Middle East. A terrorist group, A New Era, bombed the hospital where she worked and she was the sole survivor. To avoid embarrassing themselves by allowing the only survivor, a woman, to escape, they would stop at nothing to capture her in order to uphold their reputation as ruthless killers. Honor, strong and determined would not stop until she was safe and reunited with her family. Little did she know the terrorist group was not the only one interested in her capture.....<br />
<br />
Sounds good right?? And I didn't even mention the BBF Hancock :X You'll just have to read the book to get acquainted with that hottie ;) I am warning you!! <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="444481af-fac2-4ea8-939a-c072fb842c02" id="a6e5718b-6915-4168-a20d-f27742be7759">You will</gs> think I'm nuts at first for loving him, but trust me, he won't disappoint! <br />

<br />
Jake Becker is that tarnished knight. After a childhood of rebellion and trouble Jake finally sets his life straight and becomes a successful defense attorney in Washington D.C.. He has the life, a successful career, great friends and does very well in the lady in department. As easy it is for Jake to get any women he wants, he has no interest in more than one night. That is until a chance meeting with Chelsea McQuaid and her six nieces and nephews come into in life and take hold.<br />
<br />
Chelsea is a 26 year old graduate student who became a parent overnight when her brother and<br />
sister-in-law were killed. Now she is responsible for raising 6 six kids ranging from an infant to a14 year old. Cue the knight in tarnished armor.....<br />
<br />
When I received an ARC of an Emma Chase novel, I couldn't contain my excitement! I absolutely loved the Tangled series and wouldn't expect nothing but romance novel gold from her. And she didn't disappoint.<br />
<br />
I have been in a book funk for awhile. I have read some good ones but not great one and nothing that completely had my attention. Finally, this one kept my attention and held on until I finished at 3am with tears streaming down my face. Don't worry they were happy tears. :) Not only were there tears but laugh out loud moments and times that made me weak in the knees! :x<br />
<br />
Sustained may be the second book in the Legal brief series but can be read as a stand alone. But I know the next books I'm downloading and pre-ordering. ;) <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MK394JI/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00MK394JI&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=MCC5KM25XDOB6QPV">Overruled</a> and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UDCI4DK/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00UDCI4DK&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=6EYTCZXD2AM537QD">Appealed</a>!!<br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Melody Fitzgerald was not was the ideal child. She was wild, spent her pre-teen and teen years experimenting with sex, drugs, and alcohol. When her parents had enough and didn't want her influencing her younger sister, they made her disappear from their lives. Changing her name to Mercy and cutting back on some of her bad habits, she is ready to move on and hopefully find love as well as her true self.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Now this story is quite different then what I am used to. In all the romance novels I've read there is clear winner of the heroine's heart. It may not be the guy she starts out with. It could even be her boyfriends best friend (Kellan :x ). But, you know who she really wants and who she's meant to be with once he is introduced to the story. Nope! Not in this one.... At first you meet Ash, a gorgeous struggling actor who is just as wild as she is. The first night they met they had a crazy and wild night when she was still Melody. Even thirteen months later after that passionate night, the chemistry hasn't diminished and their undeniable connection is still there! And then there is Brad. The intelligent, clean cut all american boy who is the drummer in her band. So I was torn!! I had no idea which direction I wanted the story to go! Did I want her to end up with Ash, the sexy rebellious bad boy that says the most romantic things, or Brad, who is sensitive, talented smart with a little secret of his own, and who made my heart melt!! I had a crush on both! Once the story progressed, it is clear who she is meant to be with and I couldn't agree more!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">And the lie? The one mentioned in the title?? Wow! But you'll figure that one out quick and even quicker if you read<a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EWWLKQ0/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00EWWLKQ0&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=YRIDOWNAUO7OJLV7%22%3EJust%20One%20Night%20(Just%20One%20Night%20series%20Book%201)%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=bookboyfriend-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00EWWLKQ0%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E"> Just One night</a> first.

They also can be read as a stand alone and probably out of order but I am stickler for following the rules so I read them in order. ;)</span><br />

<br />
It's him<br />
Him.<br />
Jeremy McQueen.....<br />
<br />
Since the moment he was introduced in <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0451475674/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0451475674&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=OC6JTBGPIUVCAJMB%22%3EToxic%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=bookboyfriend-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0451475674%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E"></a><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0451475674/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0451475674&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=OC6JTBGPIUVCAJMB">Toxic</a>, Jeremy McQueen had my attention. One character refers to him as the James Dean type and the vision of a gorgeous brooding bad boy runs through my head! And all I can say about that is, WOW! ;)<br />
<br />
I wasn't the only one enamored with Jeremy McQueen. Phoebe St. Claire was drawn to him since she laid eyes on him while escaping from her 21st birthday party. She was a socialite with very powerful parents, which was the one thing that Jeremy despised, the privileged and the extremely rich Especially her father. Instead of telling him who she was, she decided to lie about her last name. Even though they came from different backgrounds Jeremy and Phoebe's connection was instantaneous and they didn't waste any time exploring it. Their chemistry was intense and they were inseparable that summer in the Hamptons. That is until one day he disappeared with no explanation.<br />
<br />
Five years later, she was engaged to the perfect man, Dawson Vanderbilt, but he was only on perfect on paper. She was missing something. Something she only had with Jeremy. She never forgot their connection and could still feel his presence around her. After she breaks off her engagement she has a chance encounter with him at the club he owns. Now he is the successful entrepreneur and he is ready to accept her real identity and start again. Of course that's easier said then done.<br />
<br />
The relationship throughout the story has definite highs and lows. Lots of misunderstandings and mistrust but with fiery passion. They need to work through real life problems and insecurities for the two to have a chance.<br />
<br />
There was definitely drama, some I could sense and some that completely shocked me! What I loved about this author's writing, the story was smooth with the right amount of tension, drama, excitement and heat, without dragging it out too long. <br />
<br />
My heart broke at different times for each Jeremy and Phoebe and there were times I wanted leap into the book and shake them out of their stubbornness and insecurities. Even though it looked like it could be a cliffhanger up until the very end, it wrapped up perfectly and gave a little extra I was not expecting. :x<br />

Zack Covington was a college athlete with a future in professional football when he met Anna-Grace or his "Gracie". He was completely devoted to her and dreamed of the perfect future together, that is until she disappeared. He never stopped looking for her and never gave up hope that they would be reunited. 12 years later, a chance meeting while on the job at Devereaux Security brought them back together. Zack was shocked and devastated that Gracie not only didn't want to see him but feared him as well. Although heartbroken, Zack is determined to get answers on why and earn back her love and trust all while protecting her from the real enemies. </div>

I normally don't gravitate to suspense stories but if you sprinkle in romance you got my attention. And Maya Banks definitely got my attention! The story unfolds with little bits of information here and there, like dangling the right puzzle piece just at the right time to keep you going. Not only did I fall for Zack and his utter devotion for Gracie but I got sucked in, having to know what happens next and the need for so many questions to be answered. Once I started this book nothing was going to distract me until I was finished.<br />

Out of all the books in the slow burn series this was by far my favorite! It not only had an intense story of its own, but it connected the first too and weaved all three stories together at the end. And my favorite part.....(sorry slight spolier) was when the women in the story prove to be the true heroes. They may need and love their alpha males, but they were no damsels in distress and showed the men a thing or too about kicking some serious ass!!<br />

<br />
Malcolm Saint, or Sin (as Rachel, our heroine refers to him) is exactly what I look for in a book boyfriend. He's the richest, most eligible bachelor in Chicago and a well known manwhore. I could live without the whole manwhore thing, but as we all know, all the best book boyfriends change their wicked ways when the right one comes along. Before Rachel Livingston, Saint liked his harem of women and was only interested in a good time and nothing more. The same goes for Rachel. She is happily working as a journalist albeit at a failing magazine and is emotionally unavailable. Her editor thinks she would be perfect to write an intimate exposé of the insanely rich and powerful Malcolm Saint and hopefully save the doomed magazine. Her job is to get as close to him as possible and learn all his secrets and sordid past. Since Rachel has no interest in romantic relationships, she happily takes on the challenge and is confident she can play the part and seduce him. Little did she know how much Saint would affect her and turn her world upside down, all the while putting her much loved career in jeopardy! <br />
<br />
I absolutely loved both characters! Rachel may have been young and naive, but she was also determined and strong. Malcolm was well... HOT! Dark hair, piercing green eyes and of course all muscular and male! Also, he's surprisingly sweet and lovable. Together, their chemistry was electric! I needed a cold shower after reading this one. :) However, it isn't all hot and steamy, there is a dose of drama, misunderstandings and a few damaged souls (both Rachel and Saint) to get through before they get their happy ending. Oh wait! Do they get their happy ending?? Sorry, but this is a SPOILER ALERT! If you don't want to know anymore stop reading now and go straight to my rating!<br />
<br />
Ok, here it goes.... It's a cliffhanger and I mean a major one! I kept swiping my kindle over and over again, hoping more of the story would magically appear. Unfortunately, it did not. :( . The book ends just as a major turn is about to happen. Or at least I think it's about to happen! So now I have to wait until <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SP33XEY/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00SP33XEY&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=ICU4Q2MWWK2RP6SI%22%3EManwhore%20+1%20(The%20Manwhore%20Series)%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=bookboyfriend-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00SP33XEY%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SP33XEY/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00SP33XEY&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=ICU4Q2MWWK2RP6SI">Manwhore +1 (The <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="8b018eb1-d0da-4852-bb60-38379e040053" id="bb33c4e2-d85c-4487-b3bc-64f227c38941"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="c7917ee3-bb7d-4fd6-9663-696ba52f1277" id="134bd45e-5c18-4255-bbae-7a32fb556f97">Manwhore</gs></gs> Series)</a> is released in July before I can get my hands on Saint again and my happily ever after!<br />
<br />
<br />
Despite the cliffhanger this is one of my favorite books of 2015! And I have a feeling I won't be disappointed in the next one. <br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">Maya Banks has introduced me to a few hot brooding alpha males in the past, but I think I finally met “The One” Yep, once again I have fallen hard for a fictional character and this time his name is Beau Devereaux. :x WOW!! He can make a girl feel cherished, safe, spoiled and loved and all after only knowing her for one day. Yeah only in the fictional world can that happen but it is so fu</span><span style="line-height: 16px;">n living in the fantasy world at least for a little while ;)</span></span></div>

I never thought I was one to enjoy a thrilling "on the edge of your seat" story but I couldn’t put this book down! It was one of those books where it reads like a movie and I was hooked from page one! I so badly wanted to see how it ended but at the same time I didn’t want to finish! Well, my desire to know the outcome outweighed my desire to make it last and I completely devoured this book. And now I have to wait till march for the next one <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L19M2LO/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00L19M2LO&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=NU5JAGFVKDUMRROC%22%3ESafe%20at%20Last:%20A%20Slow%20Burn%20Novel%20(Slow%20Burn%20Novels)%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=bookboyfriend-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00L19M2LO%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L19M2LO/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00L19M2LO&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=NU5JAGFVKDUMRROC">Safe at Last: A Slow Burn Novel (Slow Burn Novels)</a> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">One of my favorite things of this author is all of her books wrap up completely with no cliff hangers. Each can be read as a stand alone if needed. But why would you want to do that? I suggest reading all and anything she writes. I’d even read her grocery list! :) </span></div>

Finding a beautiful baby left on their doorstep after they accepted the reality they would never have children of their own, Ari's parents made a vow that they would always protect her and go to great lengths to keep her safe. After they discover she has a special gift, one that could put her in danger if the wrong people found out, she was told never to tell or show her special psychic powers.

She doesn’t play the damsel in distress and she proves she is capable of holding her own. She is just as strong and resourceful as the men. Throughout the book I cheered her on and enjoyed reading her triumphs and bravery!</span></div>

(Two authors that I absolutely adore).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>From the first few pages I knew I was hooked and that this book was going to “own” me! <br />

She feels things will get better once they settle down and get married.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Well that’s the plan at least.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is until Ryder Mckay makes his move.<br />
<br />
You know Ryder is trouble from the first moment he appears in the story.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Coming from a life on the streets, this bad boy will do anything to get what he wants.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He happens to want what Zachary has, the promotion at the cosmetics company, Fleur, where they all work, and Violet’s family owns.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He also wants Violet. He sees her as a challenge and because he despises Zachary, taking Violet away would be an added bonus.<br />
<br />
Pilar Vasquez is Ryder’s former boss and on and off again lover.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She helped Ryder get off the streets his get his start at Fleur.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She may seem like a saint but behind the good looks, her evil shines through. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Pilar is more than happy to help Ryder in is quest for Violet, starting with her seduction of Zachary. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After she is done with him she moves on to bigger conquests...<br />

At first I wasn’t sure of some of the characters.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I wasn’t sure which male lead I was supposed to fall for because they were both a**holes!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I knew Pilar was a villain but I didn’t expect to see Ryder as one as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It took most of the book for me to fully trust and accept him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think Violet gave in before me!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He seemed to screw up a lot and make stupid mistakes and then instantly regret them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> If it wasn't for the alternating point of view between Violet and Ryder, I may not have realized the struggle he had between getting what he wants and doing the right thing.</span><br />
<br />
Even though it took awhile for me to fall for Ryder, I was hooked and enjoyed the story the entire time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was wondering if it was possible for me not to fall for the male lead and still love the story!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Well, I guess I won’t know since Ryder did end up capturing my heart.<br />
<br />
I shouldn’t even give Zachary a mention in this review because he was such a prick.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I guess I have to since he is a part of the story, just not my favorite part.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He is totally selfish and doesn’t deserve the success he gets from sucking up to Violet’s father. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And it doesn’t take much for him to show is sleezy side and fall for Pilar’s advances.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Good thing it doesn’t take long for Violet to come to her senses.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I guess a hot Alpha Male that rocks your world makes you see the light!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once she gets a taste of Ryder there is no turning back. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And the chemistry between the two is like WOW!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br />
<br />
Oh, I guess I haven’t really mentioned the steam and sexy factor of this book.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s off the charts!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may need a cold shower when you’re done! ;) I can’t wait for the next book in the series!!!<br />

This week's book of the week is one that I am currently reading. I started <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MN4VH5S/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00MN4VH5S&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=TU25GZ4PTBLM5NQV">Gravity: A Novel</a> by L.D. Cedergreen late last night without knowing anything about it except that it has made readers cry and has a major twist. I have no idea if it has a HEA or not and that makes me really nervous. I will not read a book if I know it won't end well. In my opinion the ending will make or break a book. So far I am only a few pages in and it has my full attention but that could go south once this twist reveals itself. Stay tuned.....<br />
<br />
<br />
Book Description from Amazon:<br />
<br />
<i>After years of trying unsuccessfully to conceive a child, Gemma Walsh finds her husband in bed with another woman. Unable to face his betrayal, she retreats to Priest Lake where her family owns a small cabin. But Gemma finds that she is not the only one hiding away at the lake to avoid an ugly truth. <br />
<br />
Andrew Monroe was once an essential part of Gemma’s life but tragedy and misunderstanding shattered their bond, separating them. Now twenty years later, Gemma questions the coincidence of their newly intersected paths as she struggles to resist the sparks that ignite between them. <br />
<br />
Just when Gemma feels that she has found her second chance at happiness, she is faced with a shocking truth as her reality spirals out of control. She can’t deny the powerful force that brought Andrew back into her life anymore than she can defy the same force that now threatens to pull them apart. <br />
<br />
An emotionally-charged, heart-rending story that will leave you to question the freedom in truth and the existence of fate in its deepest sense.</i><br />

HOLY $#!*, OMG and WTF???<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That about sums up my thoughts on Maya Banks’ new novel, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H20H5NG/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00H20H5NG&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=FPE6SSPY4DCZ3XQR%22%3EKeep%20Me%20Safe:%20A%20Slow%20Burn%20Novel%20(Slow%20Burn%20Novels)%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=bookboyfriend-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00H20H5NG%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H20H5NG/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00H20H5NG&linkCode=as2&tag=bookboyfriend-20&linkId=FPE6SSPY4DCZ3XQR">Keep Me Safe: A Slow Burn Novel (Slow Burn Novels)</a> that was released today.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I love all of her books but this one blew me away!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was like none other I have ever read.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’m kind of a creature of habit, always wanting the same thing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The same romance story that I can predict, (which I still enjoy), the same type of plot and conflict and finally a similar expected resolution. I am comfortable with those stories and I rarely read anything out of my preferred genre. However, I’m thankful I took a chance on this and stepped outside my romantic, “Happily Ever After” comfort zone. But don’t worry, this is a still a contemporary romance novel, it just has a whole lot more. There’s mystery, suspense, and action all wrapped up a perfect alpha male love story!<br />
<br />
Synopsis: (This is will be brief so I don’t give anything away)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i>
<i>Ramie St. Claire is a young woman with psychic abilities. She uses her “gift “ to help find victims of horrific crimes. Caleb Devereaux’s sister has been abducted and he believes only Ramie can help. Once, Caleb finds her and forces her to help him, he feels he's indebted to her, especially after what he witnessed. Once Ramie has a connection to the victim, she then experiences the same torture and pain the victim endures. </i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>A year later Ramie continues to suffer and is stalked and tormented by a serial killer who was responsible for many of the crimes where she helped located the victims. He has one goal, to capture Ramie and torture her until she begs for death. Desperate, she turns to Caleb for help. </i><br />
<br />
The problem I had with this story is that I couldn’t read it fast enough. I caught myself more than once reading too quickly and skimming the pages to find out what was happening. I had to force myself and go back and re-read. I’m glad I did, because I almost missed some really important details!!!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
In true Maya Banks writing form, she leaves me wondering how the story can possibly wrap up when there is only a few pages left, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>but she does it again and I finished with a sigh and a satisfied grin. :)</div>

He looked at me confused, so I had to tell him it was an adaptation of a book that also has a sequel. Which I had planned on reading both before we even thought about seeing the movie, but he couldn't wait and we had to see the day it was released.<br />

I suggested getting the two books together since I was interested in reading both. He just wanted to know what happens so he dove right into the second book. <br />
<br />
I am about half way through <i>If I Stay</i>, and I'm glad I saw the movie first. You know, the book is always better than the movie! It's just not possible to put all the detail from the book into a 2 hour movie. However, there are parts of the movie that are better on screen than in the book. Since the story is about musicians, the music played in the movie is a nice bonus that you can't get on paper. <br />
<br />
Overall, the movie and book compliment each other very well. Yes, there are some changes and differences. The movie really focuses on the relationship between Mia and Adam, where the book focuses on Mia and her family more. I realize, since I haven't finished yet that may change. <br />

<br />
The reason I am reading it again is because I need to see if there were clues that would have prepared me for the last sentence of the story! I wonder if I payed closer attention, would I have seen it coming? It's kind of a game changer!

It will ruin the shock at the end. Just go back and re-read and look for the clues! ;)<br />

I also suggest you read entire Beautiful Disaster series before diving into Trent and Cami's world <span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="aa4b87ca20e1144543797fb5811895bd66e777a5" grtype="null" id="GRmark_aa4b87ca20e1144543797fb5811895bd66e777a5_in:0">in</span> <i>Beautiful Oblivion</i>.

<span style="font-size: 13pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have read A LOT of romance book and to this day, Kellan still remains my number one. It seems that most romance book bloggers have their favorite book boyfriend and even though they may not all be Kellan, I love the passion that they have for their favorite and it makes me feel a little less silly for swooning over a fictional character! </span></span><br />

There is always a chance that these - same story, different point of view books can be repetitive and sometimes boring. But from what the author has said you will learn so much about his past and watch as he falls in love with Kiera. <i><span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="5c7cd617f64ce7fec1083a816157965baa94d73b" grtype="null" id="GRmark_5c7cd617f64ce7fec1083a816157965baa94d73b_sigh:0">sigh</span>....</i> Heck, the story could be about Kellan <span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="5c7cd617f64ce7fec1083a816157965baa94d73b" grtype="null" id="GRmark_5c7cd617f64ce7fec1083a816157965baa94d73b_knitting:1">knitting</span> a blanket and I would still read it! :)</span></span><br />

I have been a fan of her books and this trilogy in particular. <i>Taking it All </i>is the final book in the series and I have been waiting what seems like forever! I have received an ARC and will be starting it tonight! But don't worry, you'll get your chance soon enough, the release date is set for August 5th.<br />
<br />
Since the first book, I have been curious about Chessy and Tate and their unconventional marriage. While you get to know the couple briefly in the first two books, you also get a small glimpse of the mystery behind their relationship and the problems they face. It's been killing me to have to wait this long to find out what's going to happen with these two! However, I get the feeling Ms Banks' is saving the best for last and I'm it will be worth the wait!<br />

<i>I really don't want to give anything away so this is a difficult review to write. I refuse to write any spoilers on this blog (I just seem willing to do that face to face). I want readers to start, knowing nothing, be completely surprised and get swept up in the story like I did.</i></div>

<i>There were times it didn't even feel like I was reading. I was so engrossed in the story, it was like I was watching a movie or even living it. Absolutely nothing could distract me, not even the time. I read until the very early hours of the morning and had to force myself to stop so I could have a few hours of sleep before work. Everyone knows when I'm really into a book when I come into work looking like a zombie. "Were you up all night reading again?" is a common question I'm asked. The story stayed with me all day and I couldn't wait to go home and finish it. Once I did, I was sad it was over.</i></div>

I fell in love with all of the characters, but I was surprised with the way I changed my opinion about one in particular, Drew. At first you just assume that he is going to be a selfish, shallow jerk and it turns out he was anything but. He was just as special as the two main characters, Nastya and Josh, and the relationship between the three of them was very touching.</i></div>

I had just finished the Fixed Trilogy (review coming soon) which was fantastic and I wasn't ready to part with Hudson and Alayna just yet. So, I decided to search around for a new book that had a similar feel, one with a sexy billionaire alpha male with issues<span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="36df29efcb18f6ecbd3063ca4a737971163040e0" grtype="null" id="GRmark_36df29efcb18f6ecbd3063ca4a737971163040e0_...:0">.</span><br />

I really hate when I do that. Well, I plan to change that now. I have so many great books that I have read recently, that I don't even know where to start or find time to get all my thoughts together. I will post some reviews soon, but I also decided to start a new feature called the Book of the Week. And since Tuesdays <span class="GRcorrect" grphrase="4bb3b6fa3596c187a455deaa8bf35b6fd2d29f5b" grtype="null" id="GRmark_4bb3b6fa3596c187a455deaa8bf35b6fd2d29f5b_are normally release:0">are normally "new release</span>" days it makes sense to start today! I plan to feature a new book every week. Sometimes it will be a new release, (like today's) a favorite that I love to re-read or need to re-read, a book I am currently reading, a recommendation from other readers/bloggers, or one that's on my very long TBR list. With all the wonderful books and incredibly talented authors out there, I'm sure to never run out of books to feature and I am excited to share them all with you!<br />

Today's Book of The Week (or in the hashtag world #BOTW ;) ) is:<br />

Written by one of my favorite authors, Jamie McGuire, this new release is a spin off of Beautiful Disaster and Walking Disaster. This is the first in the Maddox Brothers series, featuring Trent Maddox. If he is anything like Travis Maddox we are in for a wild swoon worthy ride! </div>

Below is the book description from Amazon.com:</div>
<br />
<br />
The <i>Beautiful Disaster </i>and <i>Walking Disaster </i>phenomenon continues in the first heart-pounding new adult romance in The Maddox Brothers series.<br /><br />Fiercely
independent Camille "Cami" Camlin gladly moved on from her childhood
before it was over. She has held down a job since before she could
drive, and moved into her own apartment after her freshman year of
college. Now tending bar at The Red Door, Cami doesn’t have time for
much else besides work and classes, until a trip to see her boyfriend is
cancelled, leaving her with a first weekend off in almost a year.<br /><br />Trenton
Maddox was the king of Eastern State University, dating co-eds before
he even graduated high school. His friends wanted to be him, and women
wanted to tame him, but after a tragic accident turned his world upside
down, Trenton leaves campus to come to grips with the crushing guilt. <br /><br />Eighteen
months later, Trenton is living at home with his widower father, and
works full-time at a local tattoo parlor to help with the bills. Just
when he thinks his life is returning to normal, he notices Cami sitting
alone at a table at The Red. <br /><br />As the baby sister of four rowdy
brothers, Cami believes she’ll have no problem keeping her new
friendship with Trenton Maddox strictly platonic. But when a Maddox boy
falls in love, he loves forever—even if she is the only reason their
already broken family could fall apart.<br /><br />In the first installment of the Maddox Brothers books, readers can experience the rush of reading <i>Beautiful Disaster</i> for the first time, all over again.<br />
