Blurb
Lucas Thorn wasn’t born a cheater. All it took was a single moment—say, a certain disastrous incident on the night before his wedding—and boom. Reputation destroyed forever and always. So now he owns it. He has a lady friend for every night of the week (except Sundays—God’s day and all), and his rules are simple: No commitments. No exceptions.
But a certain smart-mouthed, strawberry blonde vixen is about to blow that all to hell.
Avery Black has never forgiven Lucas for cheating on her sister. And suddenly being forced to work with him is pretty much a nightmare on steroids. Of course, it does afford her the opportunity to make his life as difficult as possible. But no good revenge scheme comes without payback. Because he didn’t become the Lucas Thorn without learning a few things about women.
Now Avery’s lust for vengeance has turned into, well, lust. And if Lucas stops cheating, it’s definitely not because he’s falling in love…

Excerpt

One night.
It was all I needed anyway, right? It’s not as if he was going to really commit to me, marry me, offer to impregnate me and father all our children.
“Are you sure about this, Avery?” He cupped my face with his rough hands. “You still have a choice. You can turn that cute ass around and march out that door—hell, you can even slam it on the way out. I’ll even let you keep the steak.”
“Are you offering me an out?”
He nodded.
“Do you offer that to every girl?”
Another nod.
“Do they ever take it?”
“Sometimes.”
“What do you want me to do?”
He paused. “You know, nobody has ever asked me that before.”
Probably because nobody cared about what else he had to offer besides what was dangling between his legs.
“I’m asking. Right now.” I wrapped my arms around his neck. “What does Thorn want?”
“You didn’t full-name me.”
“It seems to make you even more arrogant, God forbid.”
His grin made me weak, so weak that I had to hold on to him for strength. Funny how things come full circle. How he’d always been my rock.
Dependable.
Loving.
And now?
He held all the power. Lucas Thorn . . . could destroy me.
“Stay.” He brushed a soft kiss across my lower lip. “I want you to stay.”

I shouldn’t have remembered him.
He was just a guy who walked through a restaurant. I didn't know his name. We never made eye contact. There was no connection between us at all.
But I could feel him.
The tingle down my spine. The command in his presence. The snap of tension in the air around him. That was the first time I saw him, and I was captivated.
The second time was different.
He was in the mysterious back elevator of my apartment building. Our eyes met for a fleeting second before the doors closed, and I was staggered. My breath was robbed. My senses on high alert. My body hummed.
That was just the beginning.
He was the leader of the mafia. I was about to fall in love with him, and his name…

I didn't begin writing until after undergraduate college. There'd been storylines and characters in my head all my life, but it came to a boiling point one day and I HAD to get them out of me. So the computer was booted up and I FINALLY felt it click. Writing is what I needed to do. After that, I had to teach myself how to write. I can't blame my teachers for not teaching me all those years in school. It was my fault. I was one of the students that was wishing I was anywhere but at school! So after that day, it took me lots of work until I was able to put together something that resembled a novel. I'm hoping I got it right since someone must be reading this profile! And I hope you keep enjoying my future stories.

Restless Hearts By Heather Van Fleet


Buy Link: Reckless Hearts

COLLIN MONTGOMERY

Between boot camp and two TOD’s in Iraq, my buddies Max, Gavin and me have been through some serious hell. So the last thing I ever expected was to find the biggest challenge of my life back home.

My girlfriend died. I couldn’t even attend her funeral, let alone tell her goodbye or that I’m sorry I wasn’t there like I should’ve been.
But she left me a gift. The best and scariest one I could’ve ever asked for. One I didn’t think I could handle…until the day I saw her tiny blues looking up at me in that airport. Chloe.
Now here I am, raising my baby girl—with the help of my two best friends. Things couldn’t be better. Until she walked into my life.
All I wanted was a nanny. Someone to take care of my girl when I couldn’t. What I didn’t count on was Addison, the brown-eyed temptress with a body of sin, and everything I didn’t need, but suddenly wanted.

Another Single dad novel...
Ahhh, I love these.

 But it's more like three men and a baby... Until Addison comes along. 

 She meets Collin in a bar. She thinks he's trying to pick her up, but it's all a misunderstanding. But anyway, with her drunk friend, and Collin being the gentlemen he is, wants to help them get home safely, but Addison has none of it and ends up speeding off in her car. 

 But then, jobless, she's struggles with rent and such and needs to find a job fast. 

 So when the coffee girl tells her she has something, she takes up the chance... Until she finds out it's babysitting Collin's daughter and she doesn't know what to do. 

 I swear, you think she has the job, then she doesn't, then she has it but then quits, then has another job, but gets fired, works as the nanny again, but then isn't their nanny and it's so bloody frustrating you want to cry lol 
But it's worth it. The second characters are legends. I can't wait to get to know them more and read there stories. They are all different, each with a different personality but each will intrigue you. I honestly can't wait till I can read their stories. 

 All in all its a sweet, frustrating at times, romance.

Lucca (Made Men #4) By Sarah Brianne


Buy Link: Lucca

Lucca was made the underboss, being what nightmares are made of.
Chloe was scarred by her past, learning too young that nightmares are real.
He has waited long enough to claim her soul, but he must take it from the devil first.
Her soul might have been better off claimed by the devil.
The only way to save her from her past is to delve into his.
The world as she knows it will come crashing down.

I'm the fu**ing boogieman.
I'm just a fu**ing freak.


Okay, as you know, I was NOT TEAMLUCCA, I was totally TEAMAMO. 

 But I didn't even get halfway through the book before I was swayed by Lucca and his love for Chloe. 
I really loved him. He was incredibly charming in his own dangerous way and I couldn't put it down. 

 Chloe reacted to Lucca in a way she really needed too. He's perfect for her. Yeah, he went about getting her the wrong way but it was the ONLY way. I couldn't see that at first but then as the story progressed... okay, as the story began, I understood. 

 We get to know Lucca on another level. He's not such a mystery in this book and we get to see the real him, the man behind the cold mask. And I have to say, I'm now Team Lucca. I just hope Amo gets his own story soon. I hate knowing he's lost Chloe, but he didn't love her the way Lucca did.

 Look at me... LOL 
Read my CHLOE review and you'll see how against Lucca I was LOL I'm not singing a new tune and I couldn't care less aha He really did knock me sideways. Sarah Brianne has really blew us away with this one. She's changed so many minds and for a moment, I didnt think mine could be swayed LOL 

 The book is brilliant, the plot much better and although I would have liked to have skipped the rehashing past stuff, I still enjoyed the story. 
The ending was fantastic.

Valiant (Jokers Wrath MC) By Bella Jewel


Buy Link: Valiant

I’ve known fear.

I’ve known pain.

I’ve known horror.

I’ve known all of it.

I’ve guarded myself as best I can.

I’ve hidden myself from him.

I’ve changed my name.

I’ve moved.

But he still haunts me.

One day, I’m sure he’ll find me again.

I don’t trust anybody.

I don’t believe in anybody.

I just want to be free.

Until I meet Jack.

I’m not looking for him, but that’s the thing about heroes.

You’re never looking for them.

He won’t take no for an answer.

He’ll battle past my fear, my pain, and my horror.

He’ll sweep into my life like a hurricane, and it won’t matter how hard I fight.

He’ll break past my walls.

And he’ll change me.

Maybe, he’ll even save me.



 I think this one has to be the best book in the next generation series. I couldn't put it down. 

 Baylee is running from her past, from her ex and with that, she's taken his pregnant sister with her to keep her safe from him. Its the only way. 
But the sister???? She's selfish, she's rude, she's completely ungrateful and more to the point, she has no respect for Baylee, whatsoever. 

 I will admit, I was unsure at first about jack and Baylee being together, but they worked well. I actually grew to like them together a lot more as the book went on. 
She needed him and he needed her. 

 I don't want to write a long review since it will ruin the book. It's one of those books you NEED to read. 

 Worth the read. 
Great characters, great plot, great romance.

Deadly Silence (Blood Brothers #1) By Rebecca Zanetti


Buy Link: Deadly Silence

Paralegal Zara Remington is in over her head. Helping out a friend has put not only her job but her life in jeopardy. Zara needs help from someone she can trust - she just doesn't expect it to be the mysterious PI who recently appeared in her life.
Ryker Jones has problems of his own, including recovering from his investigative agency's recent brutal loss of a client. He wants to keep Zara at arm's length - and protect her from the reality of what he's running from.
But when danger arrives on Zara's doorstep, Ryker can't walk away. He might be the only one who can save her - if his deadly past doesn't catch up with them first...

Gah, are you a fan of the Sins Brothers??? 
Well, this is a prequel. 
I didn't even know about this book until the other day and I HAD to ONE CLICK it as soon as I was told. 
I always wondered if there was going to be another Sins brother novel, because come on, it ended on such a high note, we needed to know what was going to happen with Doctor Madison. 

 Well, meet Ryker, one of Madison's very own creations. Only, he thinks he's normal and just has heightened senses that he never really questioned until a young boy (I shall not name) (Which is killing me) turns up on his doorstep demanding he find Doctor Madison. 
Now, he and his two brothers are in search and in there search, they put themselves in danger. 

 Zara, a paralegal has a 'casual thing' going on with Ryker, but when he turns up, seeing the bruise on her cheek, he moves things forward. 
He wants more with Zara, something he's never wanted with anyone else, but with danger following not only Zara, but himself, can he keep her and (Mystery boy) safe???

 These brothers are just as hot and mysterious as the Gray Brothers. But what the Gray's lack human wise, these boys have had it different. They know all about family, connections and the hard life that being in the outside world brings. Only, they share the same connection with the Gray brothers. They haven't felt softness or love from anyone but their brothers. All three Jones brothers were in the same boys home, one where they were beaten and mistreated and experimented on my Madison. 

 And my God the ending... We get to see some of our old favorite characters and I'm still in love LOL 

 This series is so much different to what I normally read and I love that about it. It's unexpected, different and so thrilling it will keep you turning the page until you finish.

 I can't wait to read more from this series. I really can't.

Kick Push (The Road #2) By Jay McLean


Buy Link: Kick Push

There’s a single defining moment within every skater.
It lasts only a second. Two if you're good. 
Three if you’re really good. 
It’s the moment you’re in the air, your board somewhere 
beneath you, and nothing but wind surrounds you. 
It’s the feeling of being airborne.

The sixteen-year-old version of me would’ve said it was the 
greatest feeling in the world. 
Then at seventeen, I had my son. 
And every single second became a defining moment. Even the ones that consisted of heartbreak when his mother left us.

Seventeen. Single. Dad. 
That’s what my life became. 
Yet, every day, I managed to find that feeling of being 
airborne.
Or at least I convinced myself I did. 
But I lied—to myself and to everyone around me. 
Until she showed up; Tanned skin, raven dark hair, and eyes the color of emeralds.

You know what sucks about being in the air? 
Coming down from the high. 
Sometimes you land on the board and nail the trick. 
Then kick, push, and coast away. 
Other times you fall. 
You fall hard. 
And those are the times when it’s not as easy to get back up, dust off your pads and try again.
Especially when the girl with the emerald eyes becomes your drug...
And you become her poison.


Oh My God... This book. 

 The story starts off with Josh, a teenage boy with a pregnant girlfriend. He's kicked out of his house and with no where to go, he moves in with his girlfriend and her parents. But then she has the baby and leaves. She leaves him with a new born baby and nowhere to go after her parents tell him to leave. 
It broke my heart reading this part because as a parent, I know how hard it is to raise a child and wanting to give them everything they need. But his situation was so much worse. His parents kicked him out, wanting nothing to do with him, he was a teen, no car, no job, no money and now had a new born baby. 

 But then he's helped by a stranger and with her help, he makes it and boy does he rock at being a dad. 

 Three years later, Becca moves in next door with the stranger who has become Josh, and Tommy's family.

 I didn't even know what to make of Becca at first. She seemed TOO weird and not at all approachable. I had an incline she didn't have a good past and it's confirmed at the end of the book. Yes, her story broke my heart. 
Her past has shaped her, molded her into the girl she is. 
Not only does she not talk (although she can) because of an accident she was in, she's also troubled mentally. 

 I wouldn't even call this book a romance novel because although the two no doubt love each other, the book was more. It was a journey of struggle, of pain, of heartbreak, but most of all of courage and strength.
It was heartbreaking and heartwarming all at the same time. 

 There's one part in the book where Josh finally breaks down that I had my own melt down. I sobbed like a freaking baby and couldn't stop. I've felt those days. I think everyone could relate to that part in the book where everything becomes to much and starts piling on one mess and another and before you know it, you snap, screaming out your pain to the end of the world and back, hoping someone, anyone can hear your pain. Josh did that and it really tore my insides apart. I just wanted to reach inside the book, pull him out, and tell him everything was going to be okay. 

 The book does end on a cliffy. 
I haven't started the second book yet, I need time to recover from this one. There's only so much heartache I can take lol 
But I will be reading it. I want to see how the characters develope and if they find there way back to the places they want to be.

Hunter (Black Angels MC Book 1) By A.E.Fisher


Buy Link: Hunter

Mallory
I spent years running from my past. Then, when my past comes knocking in the form of dark, delicious sin, I find myself caught up in a man I shouldn’t. My son's uncle. A dangerous biker. Not to mention, an overbearing Alpha male. 
Hunter is everything I need to escape from, yet I find myself wanting to stay. I know I shouldn't let myself or my son care for him, but I can't help wondering if maybe he's the one who can finally save me from my past.

Hunter
The plan was simple. Find my nephew, bring him home, and raise him in the Black Angels like my brother would have wanted. But things never go as planned, like my nephew’s mother. My brother’s one-night stand. 
Mallory is spicy and sweet; one second she is mouthing off to me, and the next, she is moaning my name. The longer I’m with her, the harder she is to ignore. But she is hiding something while desperate to escape me, though I have her in my grasp. I will find out what she is hiding, and when I do, she will have nowhere left to run.


I felt so sorry for Mallory. At first I didn't understand why she ran or why she seemed to be hiding, but once I realised why she was the way she was, I felt for her. 
She has a little boy, the dad a biker, so when his brother comes knocking on her door, she's scared, wanting to flee, but she knows there's no use, he'll just find her again. 

 Hunter is a little of a dick to her. At one point he locks her up in the car until she calms down after she gets mad that he lied to her, taking her son to a place she didn't want him being. 
Justified too. She is his mother after all. 
But that isn't the only dick move he makes towards, but even with his behaviour, you can't help but like him. He's so sexy and seeing him with the little boy is cute. 

 Slowly, the heat between them gets hotter and they end up in bed, Hunter domineering her in a way she actually likes lol I actually loved seeing them together. They were the perfect fit and the more she spoke of her past and her time with his brother, I didn't really judge her for being with Hunter. As nice as his brother was, and I'm glad in the end we find out he was going to be doing the right thing, I think she found love in Hunter and not Infatuation like she did with his brother.  

 But when she's attacked in their homes, things change for Hunter. He becomes more protective of her and his nephew. The drama and action is really good throughout the book. 

 I also loved all the secondary characters, they were great. 

 Can't wait to read more in the series.

Cole Mauricio


I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review...

 What can I say...
I really LOVED this book. 
It was a page turner from the very beginning. 

 Addison is still grieving after losing the love of her life and struggling to come to terms with moving on, she finds herself haunted by her dead husband. So moving into the hard to rent, silver building with a mystery owner, she starts out her new life. Or tries to...

 But then she sees Cole in a restaurant and her life changes forever. 

 Cole, my God, I knew he would be sinfully dangerous and sexy to boot, but my God, I loved his character. 
We meet him in Carter Reed 2 and even there, we know he's got a lot to offer. But he is to die for in this book. 
He's sweet, funny, mysterious, sexy, deadly and a hard man to get close to but even still, he lets Addison in as far as he can without endangering her. Or tries...

 The last part of the book was explosive. I couldn't put it down. So much was going on, so many secrets, so much action, I couldn't look away. 

 Perfect read, packed full of everything you want in a mafia romance novel. Really did enjoy it. Will definitely be reading this one again.

Spellbound (Hex Hall Series #3) By Rachel Hawkins


Buy Link: Spellbound

Ever since she started at Hectate "Hex" Hall a school for "gifted" students Sophie Mercer's life has been a whirlwind of disasters. But now Sophie is facing her biggest crisis so far, and this time it's her life, and the lives of everyone she loves that are at stake.


Ahhh, now I can get to the good stuff. 
I surprised myself by enjoying this series. I was recommended over Facebook and was told I HAD to read the Hex Hall series. And I'm so glad I did. 
Not only do we see Sophie grow as a young woman, but as a witch too. She starts getting a hold of her powers but then, BOOM, they're taken away from her in the last book and in this book, she has to work with not having them, something she wanted after seeing what they could do to a person. 
She never wanted to hurt anyone with her powers but she knows without them, she can't help save the ones she loves. 

So, with her friends and family, Sophie sets out to get her powers back, set things right with the dark power taking over Hex Hall and finally sort things out with Archer. Cal's meant to be her mate and she doesn't quite know what to do because where she feels something for him, she loves Archer. WHY? I have no idea because my heart was totally set on Cal LOL

But before they can make a move, they're summoned by dark magic back to Hex Hall where everything has changed. No one can leave, escape and they're thrust back into the school like nothing had happened by the very people who tried to kill Sophie and her father. 
Things get more complicated from there and the story is thrilling and captivating. I couldn't put it down and the ENDING!!!! OMG!!!!!

THE ENDING!!!!

It blew me away and had me sobbing like a baby. It was so good. All that tension... it was brilliant.

Raising Demons (Hex Hall Series #2) By Rachel Hawkins


Buy Link: Raising Demons

Sophie Mercer's first term at Hex Hall turned out to be quite eventful. First the ghost of her evil grandmother haunted her every move, then her best friend was accused of murder and of course there was the discovery that Archer Cross, aka the boy of her dreams, was actually an undercover demon hunter - which would probably be something she could have worked on, if she hadn't also discovered that she was actually the demon Archer was hunting… 

So, despite their issues, Sophie is actually relieved to be spending the summer in London with her father. But when your father is Head of The Council of Prodigium and your summer is being spent at the headquarters of everything magical, then a quiet holiday isn't really that likely. And, as Sophie struggles to come to terms with her new found demon powers, she finds herself thrust once again into a world of dark magic and conspiracies. The only thing that could possibly make things more complicated would be for Archer Cross to show up again, which of course he wouldn't, would he?


After starting out the her new school year with murders, a ghost haunting her and killing said ghost, and a boy of her dreams turning out to a demon hunter, Sophie's battle has only just begun.

 She's summoned to her fathers house for the summer, and thankfully, she's allowed to bring her friend Jenna (Vampire) and the grounds keeper Cal, who we find out is her destined mate. 
Now, let me get one thing put out there, I LOVED Cal. I desperately wanted these two together. They had more of a connection than Archer, who makes an appearance in this book, showing Sophie she can trust him. 

 But things are more complicated than Sophie first imaged. There are secrets, an enemy seeking revenge and dark magic surfacing. 

 The plot thickens in this book and once again, we're left hanging with another cliff hanger, a good one LOL

Hex Hall (Hex Hall Series #1) Rachel Hawkins


Buy Link: Hex Hall

In the wake of a love spell gone horribly wrong, Sophie Mercer, a sixteen-year-old witch, is shipped off to Hecate Hall, a boarding school for witches, shapeshifters and faeries. The traumas of mortal high school are nothing compared to the goings on at "Freak High." It's bad enough that she has to deal with a trio of mean girls led by the glamorous Elodie, but it's even worse when she begins to fall for Elodie's gorgeous boyfriend, Archer Cross, and frankly terrifying that the trio are an extremely powerful coven of dark witches. But when Sophie begins to learn the disturbing truth about her father, she is forced to face demons both metaphorical and real, and come to terms with her own growing power as a witch.


Sophie, a sixteen year old witch is shipped off to Hecate Hall after losing control of her powers at a highschool dance. 
When she gets there she's shocked, approached by a group of mean girls and is roomed with a vampire. 

 Now, the story does seem slow at first but it does get into it. 
I didn't feel hers and Archers connection as well as I would have liked to, but they are teenagers, they fall in love at sight LOL

 I did enjoy all the mystery going on. It felt like Sophie was thrown to the wolves when her mother dropped her off, but she's in more danger at that school than she was living in the human world. 

 It ends with a cliffy, a GOOD one.
