ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 27, 2025

One man wants her.The other wants her dead.

When Emma Belmont is invited to attend an exclusive gallery event to represent her newspaper, she sees it as an opportunity to achieve the promotion she’s always dreamed of. She doesn’t realise that a night bound for success will result in total and utter devastation.

A damning newspaper article.A tortured artist who hides his identity.And a British aristocrat who is following her every move.

Her words start a chain of events that she’s powerless to stop.

She doesn’t know who to trust or where to turn.But she knows one thing…The pen is mightier than the sword.Because after reading her article, he wants her dead.And he’ll stop at nothing to make her the next victim on his extensive kill list.

A stalker And a saviour.

A beast And a billionaire.

But which one is which?And will Emma survive long enough to find out the truth?

She shattered his pride, now she must face the fallout…Because the devil is on the prowl.And he wants his pound of flesh.

••••••

REVIEW: If you were expecting a book along the lines of “The Soldiers of Anarchy” or even “The Rebels of Sandland” then you’re going to be disappointed. If you thought our “hero” would be like Damien from “Firethorne” then you’re going to sad.

This my friends is sooooooo much more. Darker than anything I’ve read from this author so far. But so much more.

Please read any triggers that are given. It will have you on the edge of your seat.

Me… I took it out on my day off as I couldn’t put it down!

Emma is a news reporter, well she’s aiming to become one. Getting there is proving harder than she thought! But one night changes not only her chances of becoming that writer, but also her chances of survival!

Then we have our “stalker” he has no moral’s whatsoever! Everyone is fair game.

And lastly we have the “saviour”, but is he really?!

Alex Kingston is 7th Duke of Sunford. But he never uses the title (we find out why.) Gorgeous, tattooed, and extremely wealthy, and a collector of beautiful and thought provoking art work.

Emma, S.K.A.M and Alex all meet at an art exhibition. Emma is blown away by the live performance and writes a great story for the paper….

Alex is entranced by Emma, he wants to know more about her….

But S.K.A.M is enraged! How dare she write such a trashy and scathing article! (Her boss decides to “jazz” it up and write a horrible review, and no matter how much Emma tries to explain via email, the damage is done!)

This book moves at a good pace. Nothing is filler, descriptions are on point. And the spice is just right. The background story about his family given to us by Alex is heartbreaking.

I’d highly recommend this book if you like your book with a twist.

And if you’re routing for the hero…. Keep reading 🤐😜

And the anagram of S.K.A.M ….is revealed at the end, along with a twist I did not see coming!

This book is part of a series by different authors. So I’m not expecting them to follow on from one another. Seven deadly sins written by seven different authors. (I’ve read books by most of the authors in this series)

A highly recommended read from me.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 27, 2025

Graham Carter: ethical hacker, resident grump of Avalon Falls, and the man who’s about to make me his wife. For convenience, of course.

I need an escape plan—fast. My family expects me to marry a man I can’t stand, and Graham needs a wife to secure his inheritance. A simple deal, no emotions involved. Just one year of marriage, and we both walk away with exactly what we want.

But living with Graham isn’t easy. He’s infuriatingly perceptive, impossible to ignore, and fiercely protective in ways I never expected. Every touch feels too real. Every glance lingers too long. And every threat from the man I left behind pulls me closer to the one I secretly wished for all along.

This was never supposed to be more than a transaction. But the longer we pretend, the harder it is to remember what’s real. And the most dangerous thing about Graham Carter?

I think he might want me, too.

•••••

REVIEW: STOLEN VOWS is the third instalment in Penelope Black’s contemporary, adult AVALON FALLS erotic, romance series. This is cybersecurity specialist Graham Carter, and book store owner Francesca Ashburn’s story line. Graham is Beau Carter’s brother (Forsaken Oath 2).STOLEN VOWS can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Graham and Francesca) STOLEN VOWS follows the building romance and relationship between Graham Carter and Francesca Ashburn. Approximately ten years earlier, Graham Carter met Francesca Ashburn as a college party but their interaction was limited because of Francesca’s twin sister’s interference, and our coupe would meet again not once but twice every five years. Fast forward to present day, Francesca Ashburn has moved to Avalon Falls following the death of her beloved aunt, a death from which Francesca inherited a small and independent book store but Francesca never thought she would come face to face with the man who stole her heart all those years before. Enter Graham Carter. Graham is a cybersecurity specialist, and has been searching for our story line heroine but Francesca has a secret, and Graham is determined to claim Francesca as his own. A mutual agreement to a marriage of convenience, a marriage that will poke at the proverbial bee hive, threatening our story line coupe in the process.

The world building follows the growing relationship and love between our story line couple; Graham’s work as he struggles to diffuse a series of security threats including one of his own; and the dysfunctional family dynamic that threaten Francesca Ashburn, and the battle to take down the people in charge.

The relationship between Graham and Francesca is one of acquaintances to friends to lovers in which both will benefit from a marriage of convenience but Graham is transfixed with the woman with whom he will fall in love, a woman whose family refuses to let go. The $ex scenes are numerous, provocative and erotic.

The energetic secondary and supporting characters include Francesca’s twin sister Florence, and their controlling parents, as well as the reintroduction and return of Graham’s brother Beau, their sister Cora, and parents Hazel and Lucas. The requisite evil has many faces.

STOLEN VOWS is a story of power and control; betrayal and vengeance; secrets and lies, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is dramatic, captivating and engaging but the conflict resolution was too quick and mostly behind the scenes-the guilty party is easily deduced; the romance is seductive; the characters are determined and desperate.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 27, 2025

“There is nowhere for you to run, little one…”

Beast
I am the president of The Knights of St. Bon Motorcycle Club.
A seven-foot mountain of muscle and bone in a pair of motorcycle boots and a leather cut.
Cursed with demons and darkness and secrets that run deep.
To the people of St. Bon, I am a monster.
To my club brothers, I am a fearless leader.
To her, I am a nightmare.

Belle
He comes out of the shadows and turns my world upside down.
He forces me to marry him to pay off my uncle’s debt to the motorcycle club.
The stakes are high. I must be convincing as his old lady or there will be consequences for the both of us.
But I could never imagine the real reason he wants to marry me.
Or the secrets he is guarding in the forbidden room.

•••••

REVIEW: BEAST is the first instalment in Penny Dee’s contemporary, adult MC FABLES dark, erotic, MC romance series focusing on The Knights of St. Bon MC. This is club president, thirty-one year old Adam ‘ Beast’ Vale, and former nanny twenty-nine year old, Belle Rose’s story line.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

The world building follows several interconnected pathways including The Knights of St. Bon’s search for the people distributing a deadly new street drug; the potential war with the Unhinged Psychos MC; a grudge held by the town mayor, and the secrets that may push Belle out of Beast’s life.

The relationship between Beast and Belle is a forced marriage but a marriage that quickly turns into something more.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 29, 2025

Danny Chambers is back.

I lost my heart to Danny Chambers in high school, even though he parked me in the friend zone five minutes after we met. It’s taken years to stop thinking about him at least once every hour. It helped when he enlisted in the Air Force. But he’s back, and he’s walking onto the football team. He could go to college anywhere, so why does it have to be Mountain State?

Even best friends keep secrets from each other.

When Danny earns a spot playing receiver for the Wildcats, I’m in the clear. I can admire him from the stands and go back to my boring life of finishing my undergrad and resigning myself to being married to my career. After what went down with my one-and-only boyfriend last semester, well, I need to stop dreaming about happily-ever-after. Which makes the head games Danny is playing with me so painful. Why is he acting like he wants something more with me?

Five years ago, I made a colossal mistake.

I need a second chance. Growing up a military brat, the one constant in my life was playing football. Though I met all kinds of people while switching schools on the regular, one look at Taryn Hamilton and she’s my girl. Yet after we met, I discovered quick she was off-limits if I wanted to catch passes on Friday nights. I paid a big price for my bad choice. Now after giving Uncle Sam four years so I could attend college, I’m at Mountain State where I’m taking every opportunity to show Taryn how I truly feel—how I have always felt about her. She is so much more than my best friend.

Football was my first love. Now I’m playing for my only love.

Game Time.

••••••••

REVIEW: DELAY OF GAME is the fourth instalment in Tam DeRudder Jackson’s contemporary, new adult GAME TIME erotic, football romance series. This is former US Air Force member Danny Chambers, and Taryn Hamilton’s story line. DELAY OF GAME can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty, any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. The events of DELAY OF GAME run parallel to and cross over with all of the previous instalments.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Danny and Taryn) DELAY OF GAME follows the childhood friends to lovers relationship between former US Air Force member Danny Chambers, and Taryn Hamilton. Years earlier, while still in high school, Danny Chambers reluctantly placed his best friend Taryn Hamilton in the friend zone, and Taryn has never forgiven or forgotten about the humiliation. Fast forward to present day, having served his time in US Air Force, Danny has returned and enrolled in the same college as our story line heroine, and was granted a walk on position with the football team. Starting a slow seduction of Taryn Hamilton, Danny is met with trepidation and apprehension, and struggles to uncover the reasons why. Determined to keep her distance, Taryn finds herself distressing about the past, and a former relationship that refuses to let go.

The world building follows several paths including Danny’s growing friendships with his teammates; his need and love for the woman who’s heart he broke; and the determination of Taryn Hamilton to make it on her own.

The relationship between Danny and Taryn is a childhood best friends to lovers relationship that struggles with the demons from the past. Taryn’s humiliation, and the constant reminder of her previous relationship failures continue to beat at our heroine’s ego but Danny Chambers is determined to claim Taryn as his own in the face of her need to push Danny away. The $ex scenes are passionate and seductive.

The second and supporting characters include Danny’s sassy teammates and roommates Callahan O’Reilly and Jamaica Winslow, Wyatt ‘Bax’ Baxter, Finn McCabe, Tarvarius Johnson, Tamatoa Hall, as well the introduction of Taryn’s siblings and parents, friend Zoe Lampee, co-worker Hailey, and hometown bully Derek Watson. There may be something developing between Tarvarius and Zoe.

DELAY OF GAME is a story of harassment and vengeance, family and friendships, relationships and love. The premise is edgy, inviting and engaging; the characters are animated and spirited; the romance is tender and heart warming.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 25, 2025

Damon Hunt, the world’s most ruthless thief, wants my skills for a dangerous job. Worse, he wants me…as his wife.
When Damon Hunt—the thief my father trained instead of me, his protégé, the same one responsible for his death—strolled back into my life after years, I shot first and asked questions later.
Then he had the nerve to ask for my help to recover the stolen Royal Heart, a Winston Isles Crown Jewel, from the underground Black Rose Auction.
Despite how I used to feel about him, I see him for who he really is. And I’m not getting sucked back into the world that cost me everything. Not to mention, I’m not a damn thief.
I’ve built my career at a recovery firm, avoiding the field. I might be the best safecracker around, but I won’t go back to my private hell.
Until Damon dangles the one thing I can’t resist, the man who shot my father.
The catch? We have to pose as husband and wife to infiltrate the auction and steal back the Royal Heart for the Winston Isles.
Navigating the underground deals brings back old wounds and undeniable attraction. Damon is like a beast from my past—dangerous, captivating, and hiding secrets behind his fierce exterior. I have to decide if I’m falling for the monster who broke my heart—or the man determined to win it back.

••••••

REVIEW: ROYAL HEART by Nana Malone is the sixth and final instalment in the contemporary adult, romantic BLACK ROSE AUCTION multi-authored suspense series. This is professional thief Damon Hunt, and analyst Ari Denton’s story line. ROYAL HEART can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the other story lines is revealed where necessary (all of the instalments will be released on the same day). Several characters from Nana Malone’s Winston Isles Royals series cross over for cohesion and familiarity.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Daman and Ari) ROYAL HEART follows former childhood friends as they are forced to work together in an effort to steal back the ROYAL HEART, A Winston Isles Crown Jewel. Weeks before his brother Prince Sebastian’s wedding, Prince Lucas discovers the Royal Heart is a forgery, and is desperate to retrieve the original jewel. GT Securities has been hired to reclaim the stolen property, and Galen Trent brings in professional thief Damon Hunt who knows of only one woman able to help with the job. Enter Ari Denton, Damon’s former mentor’s only child, and the woman Damon has loved most of his life but years earlier, while on a job, Ari’s dad Paul Denton was murdered, and Ari blames Damon for the death of her father. Working together may prove to be a problem as Ari and Damon must pose as a married couple, hoping to ‘buy’ the Black Heart jewel at the Black Rose auction, only to come face to face with the man who started it all.

The world building focuses on the past; the search and recovery of a crown jewel, and the rekindling relationship between our story line couple. While Ari Denton blames Damon Hunt for the death of her father, Damon refuses to reveal the truth in an effort to protect the woman he loves.

The relationship between Damon and Ari is one of second chances, of a sorts. Ari was never a part of Damon and her father’s world of high end thievery, and in this, Ari has watched from the sidelines as her fathered mentored someone else. Desperate to prove he is worthy of a second chance, Damon’s slow seduction of Ari is aided with their masquerade as a married couple. The $ex scenes are erotic, and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters include Winston Isles Royals Penny Walsh (Cheeky Royal /Cheeky King) and Prince Lucas (Royal Bastard/ Bastard Prince): Security specialist Galen Trent owner and head of GT securities. The requisite evil has many faces.

ROYAL HEART is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, forgiveness and acceptance, relationships and love. The premise is intriguing and entertaining; the romance is fated and provocative; the characters are desperate and charismatic.

My ex, Nicole.
The one who got away and the woman who still owned every piece of my heart.
After our divorce, I threw myself into the rock scene, trying to forget my heartbreak.
Three years after we split, a phone call from Nicole changed everything.
She told me her grandmother wasn’t doing well.
Mimi was still family to me, and she apparently had one wish before dying: to spend time with us—Nicole and me.
With Mimi’s caretaker away on vacation, it would be the ideal time for us to move in with her for a couple of weeks.
Of course, I couldn’t refuse.
But there was a catch.
Nicole apparently never told her that we’d gotten a divorce.
She hadn’t believed Mimi could handle it, because her grandmother loved me so much.
So, not only would I have to see Nicole again, but I’d be pretending to still be her husband.
Two weeks in a tiny house in a small town with the woman who broke my heart. Or was it me who broke hers?
It was complicated.
And it was about to be a heck of a lot more complicated sharing one bed in the guest room with a woman who wasn’t mine anymore.

REVIEW:THE DRUMMER’S HEART by Penelope Ward is a contemporary, adult , erotic, romance story line set in the author’s THE ROCKER’S MUSE world. This is thirty-four year old, Delirious Jones drummer Atticus Marchetti, and thirty-one year old, hair stylist Nicole Marchetti’s story line. THE DRUMMER’S HEART can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Atticus and Nicole) using present day and memories from the past, THE DRUMMER’S HEART follows the second chance romance and relationship between our story line couple. Approximately fifteen years earlier, Atticus Marchetti fell in love with the woman he would one day marry but the success of the band, and the possibility of life on the road, would tear the couple apart. Fast forward to present day, the couple have now been divorced for three years but Nicole needs a favor from Atticus, and two weeks together would bring back memories from the past and feelings that had never been buried. As the band prepares for their upcoming tour, Nicole has both good and bad news, and Atticus is prepared to reclaim our heroine as his own.

The world building focuses on the rekindling relationship; the past betrayals and heart breaking admissions; the future of each member of the group, and the next direction for the band.

The relationship between Atticus and Nicole is one of second chances. Atticus has never stopped loving the woman who stole his heart years before; Nicole must come to terms with what happened and why. As Atticus struggles to prove they are worthy of a second chance, Nicole struggles with the memories of the past. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters include the return of band members Rona, Tristan and Emily (The Rocker’s Muse), as well as the introduction of Nicole’s ‘Mimi’; Atticus’ sister Tina, and niece Kenzie.

THE DRUMMER’S HEART is a story of love and loss, family and friendships, forgiveness and love. The premise is emotional and captivating, and a little bit twisty; the romance is fated and uplifting; the characters are determined and charismatic .

An hour from the Tex/Mex border, it was a quiet town until the rumble of our motorcycles rolled in and we took control.

Now I’m going back to the town that convicted me and sent me away.
With the blessing of our Saints Outlaws mother chapter and with those brothers brave enough to join me,I ’m going to set up my own chapter, take the town over and make it ours.

When my past threatens her, I can’t stay in the shadows any longer. I’ll raise Hell to keep her safe and make her mine. Not a single soul can stop me.
They call me Azrael, the Angel of Death—a one-way ticket to Hell. When you see me, run. I won’t show mercy.
My Reaper is ready to ride. And where he goes, death and destruction follow. I’ll have my vengeance, my woman, and justice, no matter the consequences.

Twisted Devil
The Royal Bastards MC is mine. My club. My family. My salvation. And I will do anything to protect it.
I’m brutal. Crazy. Ruthless. And I won’t apologize for it.
I never believed I would love anything as much as being SAA and taking the Devil’s Ride. Becoming a Reaper and patching in with the RBMC were the best decisions I ever made.
Until I met Nylah.
The feisty nurse owns my black soul. She’s become the most critical person in my world.
My life in the club is too dangerous for her, but I won’t give her up.
She’s an obsession. An addiction. The light to my darkness. A liability.
When my past surfaces, along with all the bad things I’ve done in the name of vengeance, I know I have to let her go.
It’s the only way to keep her safe.
Losing Nylah forces the monster within to break free and lash out. Secrets. Lies. Betrayal. It’s the shocking truth that unleashes the beast I’ve tried so hard to contain.
The twisted devil inside is done with following the rules.
My Reaper is willing to risk everything, even a deal with the devil, to save Nylah.
And there isn’t any place where my enemies will be able to hide.

RIDIN’ FOR HELL

RIDIN’ FOR HELL is the third instalment in Nikki Landis’ contemporary, adult RBMC: TONOPAH NV dark, erotic, paranormal MC romance, set in the multi-authored RBMC series. This is SAA Ian Azrael’ ‘Rael’ Braxton, and nurse Nylah Peters’ story line. RIDING’ FOR HELL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from several first person perspectives (Rael, Nylah, Naomi ) RIDIN’ FOR HELL follows the search for a human trafficker in the wake of the disappearance and torture of several young women. Having found an injured woman on the side of the road, RBMC SAA Ian Azrael’ ‘Rael’ Braxton will come face to face in the ER with his future in the guise of Nylah Peters. Nylah’s sister has been several injured but fearing for her life. Continues to run. Unaware of her attraction to Rael, Nylah becomes desperate and begs for help from Rael and the RBMC.

The world building follows several converging paths as the RBMC chapters continue to hunt for the men responsible. From Alaska to Nevada, the human traffickers appear to be winning, as the RBMC must come to terms with the who and the why.

The relationship between Nylah and Rael is one of immediate attraction but Nylah is a little bit naïve as to the world of the RBMC. With the hope of saving and protecting her sister, Nylah finds herself falling for a man who is more than she could have ever imagined. The $ex scenes are passionate and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of energetic and powerful secondary and supporting characters including the member of the RBMC : Tonopah, RBMC: Alaska; and RBMC: Nola. We are introduced to Nylah’s sister Naomi aka Mimi. The requisite evil has many faces.

RIDIN’ FOR HELL is a story of power, abuse and control, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is dark, dramatic and intense; the romance is seductive; the characters are desperate and determined.
