ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 23, 2017

Emerson: Talk about bad first impressions. I have too much riding on this job to show up late on my first day looking like the winner of a wet T-shirt contest, all thanks to an arrogant quarterback who drives like he owns the road. Hunter Browning thinks that because he’s famous, he can fix everything with a smile and a wave of his hand. He’s too bronzed, buff, and beautiful for his own good. Or mine. I can’t let on that I’m a fan . . . no matter how much fun we’d have in the sack.

Hunter: Hitting that puddle was my best play since winning the Super Bowl with a touchdown pass. Sure, it’s not my preferred way to get a girl wet, but I’ll make an exception for Emerson Day. She’s got a sharp tongue and a red-hot temper, even with her soaking clothes plastered to her every curve. Now I know exactly what my next play will be: hire Emerson as my personal real-estate agent, save her job—and see if I can take her off the market.

REVIEW: DOWN AND DIRTY by Tracy Wolff is a stand alone, contemporary adult, erotic romance story line focusing on star quarterback Hunter Browning and realtor Emerson Day.

Told from dual first person points of view (Emerson and Hunter) DOWN AND DIRTY follows the building relationship between Lightning quarterback Hunter Browning and realtor Emerson Day. Hunter needs a house and finds himself oddly attracted to new agent Emerson Day-a woman with attitude to spare since her run in with our story line hero only minutes before. When Hunter chooses Emerson as his real estate agent, our heroine is determined to find the man exactly what he needs. What ensues are the quick building romance between Hunter and Emerson, and the fall out when Hunter’s life implodes behind the scenes.

The relationship between Hunter and Emerson is quick to develop-from enemies to friends to lovers within a matter of hours, Hunter’s attraction to Emerson finds our story line hero considering the future with a woman he has known for a couple of days. The $ex scenes are intimate and seductive without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text. The sexual attraction is palpable; the chemistry is energetic and hot.

We are introduced to Hunter’s teammates: Tanner Green, Shawn Wilson, and Cameron Smith, as well as Hunter’s sister Heather, niece Lucy and nephew Brent; Emerson’s boss Kerry, and fellow agent Alice. I am hoping for more story lines focusing on the San Diego Lightning.

The world building looks at family and friendships, love and loss, grief and acceptance. The character development is limited, as the story line remains focused on the present without revealing any history or background for our leading couple.

DOWN AND DIRTY is a quick read; a fast paced, spirited story line of romance, loss and a happily ever after. The premise is realistic and tangible; the characters are passionate and colorful; the romance is spicy and provocative. DOWN AND DIRTY is a playful, energetic and emotional story line.

SWEET CHEEKS by K. Bromberg-a review

Sweet Cheeks

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO /

RELEASE DATE: November 14, 2016

It all started with the invitation. To my ex-fiance’s new wedding.

I should have ignored it. Thrown it away. Set it afire. But I didn’t. I replied.

With a plus one.

And then my assistant accidentally mailed it.

Enter Hayes Whitley. Mega-movie star. The man who has captured the hearts of millions. But I gave him mine years ago. He was my first love. He was my everything. Right until he up and left to chase his dreams without so much as a simple goodbye.

When he showed up out of the blue ten years later, I should have known to steer clear. I should have rejected his offer to take me to my ex’s wedding. I should have never let him kiss me.

But I didn’t.

And now we’re left wondering if the pieces of the life we once shared still fit together somehow. First loves are hard to forget. The question is, do we want to forget? Or do we risk the chance and see what happens next?

REVIEW: SWEET CHEEKS by K. Bromberg is an adult, contemporary, stand alone, second chance romance story line between movie star Hayes Whitley, and bakery shop owner Saylor Rodgers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Saylor and Hayes) SWEET CHEEKS focuses on Sweet Cheeks bakery owner Saylor Rodgers following the invitation to her ex-fiance Mitch’s wedding. With his sister in need of the perfect date for the island nuptials Saylor’s brother Ryder calls in an IOU from Hayes Whitley-the man whom Saylor has loved for most of her life- and the man who broke her heart ten years earlier. What ensues is the rekindling romance and rebuilding of a friendship between two people who have never forgotten the past.

Hayes Whitley is an award winning Hollywood actor whose fame came at the cost of his relationship with Saylor Rodgers. Ten years earlier, Hayes left his hometown and the woman he loved to seek his fame and fortune, then never looked back. Saylor Rodgers thought she found love in the guise of someone new but six years later realized that Hayes was the only man she would ever love. The $ex scenes are intimate and intense.

We are introduced to Saylor’s brother Ryder Rodgers, and her co-worker and best friend Dee Dee who is responsible for sending Saylor’s wedding invitation reply. Saylor’s ex-fiance Mitch Layton has yet to sever the umbilical cord still attached to his overbearing mother; and Mrs. Layton who is attempting to destroy Saylor’s business one nasty comment at a time.

SWEET CHEEKS is a second chance romance between two people who share a lifetime of memories, of hopes and of dreams. The premise is emotional and sexy; the characters are passionate and real; the romance is fated by time.
