ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 29, 2024

Vesper Rossi has always known her life isn’t her own. Born into the notorious Rossi family, her destiny was set—to marry the heir of the ruthless Petrov empire and solidify a deadly alliance. Her intended’s twin cousins, Oscar and Zaire, offer her a dangerous lifeline and the chance to escape.

When their plan fails, Vesper is taken captive. For two years, she endures unspeakable horrors, her body exploited by a faceless enemy intent on breaking her. Once she serves her purpose, she is sold—not to strangers, but to the very men who failed her.

Oscar and Zaire, along with the rest of their Second Sons family, return with vengeance in their hearts and regret fueling their every move. Failure is not an option this time. When Vesper learns that her captivity held was the result of a more malevolent plot, she will stop at nothing to get back what was stolen from her.

With her body, heart, and mind scarred but unbroken, Vesper is ready to reclaim her power with the Second Sons at her back and in her bed.

Blood will be spilled, alliances will crumble, and no one will be spared.

REVIEW:Check your trigger warnings with this one readers-

All The Pretty Lies is an intense reverse harem/Why Choose, mafia romance. Avelyn Paige weaves a web of mysterious lies and suspense with hidden layers that are slowly peeled away as the plot unfolds.

From her first breath Vesper has known that part she will play to her family. You see, her family isn’t a run of the mill family, no. She’s the daughter of the mafia, and thus her life is forfeit, she is to be married off to an unknown man for the benefit of her family. Life however has a different path in store for Vesper. As the doomsdate (as I like to call it) looms closer and closer, her brother hatches a plan to help her, betrothing her to the Russian Petrov twins. This little glimmer of hope Vesper has is quickly extinguished when she is brutally kidnapped and held prisoner.

Fast forward two long years and Vesper has had to endure being tortured and brutalized, broken down and shattered, all the passing fancy for this monster of a man. For two years, the Second Sons; Oscar, Zaire, Talon and Alex search for her to an obsessional degree. When they are finally able to locate her, she is a shadow of the person she used to be. Nevertheless, the men want to help her heal and recover, they want to give her a reason to live again.

To say this book is fabulous just doesn’t cover it. ATPL is dark, gritty and intense. There are moments when the guys have me panting, and others when I want to beat them upside their stupidly attractive heads. Talon and Alex are -Chef’s kiss- delicious, and when we got that little teaser from Alex I was practically feral. This book will take you for a ride of ups and downs, heartbreak and heat, sobbing and spice all in the same chapter. The ending, readers be warned, is the most frustrating cliffhanger of all time and I can’t wait to get the next part!

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 26, 2024

A small town, forced proximity, second chances, babymaking standalone romance! “A more evolved male would probably shed a few tears for your anemic $ex life since we’ve been apart. Me? I’ll commit to giving you 0ral sex to make up for every hour I missed…”

I’ve been a single father so long that I don’t remember life without my adorably sassy 10 year-old daughter. Don’t want to, actually. I love being a father more than I ever expected to, and ever since my daughter’s mother left us, I’ve mostly been abstinent. Making me quite a catch around our home in small town Baby USA, Crescent Cove.

But all I want is a second chance with Bridget, Carrington’s mother. My high school sweetheart and first love.

My forever love if I get my way after she shows up to my charity calendar reshoot and we end up losing our clothes…on camera.

Unexpectedly, our shoot goes viral. And guess what, now there is another surprise on the way…

••••••

REVIEW: SECOND CHANCE BABY is the eighteenth instalment in Taryn Quinn’s contemporary, adult CRESCENT COVE erotic, romance series. This is cover model / single father Travis Masterson, and model/actress Bridget Sheppard’s story line. SECOND CHANCE BABY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. Some of the events of SECOND CHANCE BABY cross over with some of the events of DRIVEN DADDY (17).

Told from dual first person perspectives (Travis and Bridget) SECOND CHANCE BABY follows the rekindling relationship between our story line couple. Travis Masterson and Bridget Sheppard were high school sweethearts, and both would make a living, working as cover models and actors but Bridget’s unplanned pregnancy and the birth of their daughter would send our heroine into a tailspin, leaving behind the man she loved, and a baby without its’ mother. Fast forward approximately ten years, Travis finds himself working opposite the woman he loves, his daughter’s mother, and the woman he is hoping to convince it is time to come home.

The world building focuses on the rebuilding romance between Bridget and Travis, a romance that picks up with very little conflict or contention. Although Bridget has been in and out of her daughter’s life, there is no strife or trepidation between Bridget and her daughter, or most of the people of Crescent Cove.

The relationship between Bridget and Travis is one of second chances. Working together reminds one another what was, and what could be again. The $ex scenes are intimate and impassioned without the use of over the top sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of familiar and charismatic secondary and supporting characters including Travis’s siblings, their parents Hank and JoAnn; Bridget and Travis’ daughter Carrington, as well as Bridget’s sister Lacey, and her daughter Amerie.

SECOND CHANCE BABY is a story of family and friendships, relationships and love. The character driven premise is moving-the conflict is limited and virtually non-existent ; the romance is flirty and spirited; the characters are energetic and determined.

REVIEW:JINGLE BELLE’S BIKER by EC Land is a contemporary, adult, MC romance, found in the multi-authored THIRTEEN BIKERS FOR CHRISTMAS series. This is Nick ‘Saint’ Santiago, and elementary school teacher Belle Russo’s story line. JINGLE BELLE’S BIKER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Saint and Belle) JINGLE BELLE’S BIKER follows the building relationship between our story line couple. Nick ‘Saint’ Santiago is a nomad; a bike rider who goes from town to town searching for the next job but a man who is about to fall for his latest assignment. Hired to ‘intimidate’ the tenants of a questionable apartment complex, Saint never thought he would consider settling down until he met our story line heroine. Belle Russo is an elementary school teacher, and a woman determined to protect the people in her building but meeting Saint means dividing her attention from the threats against the other tenants, threats that will come from a familiar face. As Belle and Saint dance around one another, someone else has claimed Belle as his own.

The world building follows Saint as he struggles with what he has to do. In the days and weeks before Christmas, he battles between head and heart knowing the innocent will be hurt if he carries through with someone else’s plans. Belle is a breath of fresh air but someone who is about to be caught in the fall-out of Saint’s latest assignment.

The relationship between Belle and Saint begins as a ‘rescue’ when Belle finds herself walking alone, late at night. Saint claims to be looking for a place to live, and Belle suggests the complex in which she lives. Falling for Saint was easy but Saint never stays in one place for very long. The $ex scenes are passionate and seductive.

We are introduced to several tenants of Belle’s apartment complex including Hannah and Mellie, as well as Belle’s ex Lance Hastings, and a number of MC members Gravel, Nomad, Snake Eyes, and Saint’s ex Sin.

JINGLE BELLE’S BIKER is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and greed, forgiveness and love. The premise is moving and engaging; the romance is provocative; the characters are desperate and dynamic.

THE SOUND OF US by Sarah Castille- a review

THE SOUND OF US by Sarah Castille-a review

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO / Google Play / Chapters Indigo /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 26, 2024

Broken hearts and hidden pasts collide in a symphony of passion and redemption.

Skye Jordan thought she had it all figured out. Eighteen months ago, she was in college and dreaming of a basketball career. But in a split second her world fell apart. Now she’s back at Havencrest U, broke and desperate. She has no use for sexy, bad boy musicians who kiss her senseless. . . until she lands an internship at the radio station where he works.

DJ Dante Romano has lost every person close to his heart. All he has is his music. Consumed by guilt and driven by vengeance, he has no time for love, and yet the fiery new intern who shares his passion and feels his pain tempts him like no other. For Dante, Skye is off limits. And yet from the moment he meets her, he can’t turn away.

Soon their scorching attraction develops into something deeper. Together they could make beautiful music, but will their untold secrets force them apart?

••••••

REVIEW: THE SOUND OF US by Sarah Castille is a contemporary, new adult, erotic, romance story line focusing on journalism student Skye Jordan, and twenty-three year old, law student/ DJ Dante Romano.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Skye and Dante) THE SOUND OF US follows the building relationship between on journalism student Skye Jordan, and twenty-three year old, law student/ DJ Dante Romano. Approximately eighteen months ago, in an instant, Skye Jordan’s life spiralled out of control. Fast forward to present day, after a leave of absence, in the hopes of making the women’s basketball team, Skye returns to Havencrest U, where she will meet bad boy and DJ Dante Romano but all does not go according to plan, and Skye finds herself on the precipice of change, including the possibility of starting over somewhere else. At the proverbial eleventh hour, Skye is offered a journalism scholarship, an internship at the campus radio station where she will fall for a man whose own demons are dangerous and dark. As Skye begins to research a series of questionable events for her journalism assignments, our couple find themselves struggling to move on from the past.

The world building focuses on several pathways including the revelation of Dante’s demons, and Skye’s past but as Skye begins to dig deeper into a couple of stories, everything becomes personal and dangerous for the people she loves. Meanwhile, Dante is battling his father for control, a man who doesn’t like to be told no.

The relationship between Dante and Skye is one of immediate attraction based on a love of music. Their back and forth communication using song lyrics, titles and playlists was complex; their lack of communication and misunderstandings were the catalysts for many arguments and withdrawals. The $ex scenes are intimate and impassioned.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including co-workers, friends, family, athletes, and mentors, all who play a significant role in our couple’s lives.

THE SOUND OF US is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and obsession, power and control, family and friendships, acceptance and love. The premise is dramatic, haunting, emotional and thought-provoking; the romance is spicy and seductive; the characters are animated, sassy and determined.

MACE

The Pioneers are gone, but my club is fighting a new war—one from within. Our president is a disgrace to the patch, but removing a king from his throne is not an easy task. It will take all of our cunning to take the head off the snake.

The last thing I need is to be distracted by a woman when the stakes are so high, but the moment I see her, I’m consumed with the need to own her. Maylie is sunshine in a cloudy sky, and even though I know I am not good for her, I can’t walk away.

MAYLIE

From the moment my mother died, I’ve been raising my two younger siblings and trying to protect what remains of my shattered family. I never expected to be a guardian at eighteen, and I never expected at twenty-two to never have been kissed. All I want is to be a normal girl, in love with a guy, so when Mace barrels into my life I fall hard and fast. He’s everything I’ve ever dreamed of, but when he finds out my secrets, he’ll run and he’ll break my heart…

••••

REVIEW:MACE is the first instalment in Jessica Ames’ contemporary, adult UNTAMED SONS MC: BIRMINGHAM dark, erotic, MC romance series-a spin off from the author’s interconnected UNTAMED SONS MC. This is Road Captain Mason aka Mace, and twenty-two year old, bar waitress Maylie Fernsby’s story line.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Maylie & Mace) focusing on two timelines, MACE follows the building relationship between Mace and Maylie. Maylie Fernsby has been raising her younger brother Toby and sister Ivy since the death of their mother years before but working as a bar waitress is barely paying the bills; her seventeen year old sister is spiralling out of control, she is behind on the rent and her landlord is pushing for something more; and the Untamed Sons MC is about to take over Temptation, the club where she works yet Maylie never expected to come face to face with her future in the guise of Untamed Sons MC Road Captain Mace, the man with whom Maylie will fall in love. From handsie customers, a lecherous landlord, and her sister’s questionable boyfriend, Maylie is targeted at every turn. With the help and protection of Mace and the members of the Untamed Sons MC, Maylie and her sister begin to rest easy until the past returns, taking aim at our story line heroine.

The world building follows several paths including the imploding hierarchy of the Untamed Sons MC; the take over at Temptation ; the fall-out of dysfunctional family values; and a young woman’s desire to find first love.

The relationship between Mace and Maylie is one of immediate attraction but Maylie has responsibilities back home, and is struggling to pay the bills. Desperate in the face of threats and the breakdown of her family, Maylie goes to Mace in an effort to seek protection for the people she loves. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and charismatic secondary and supporting characters. We are introduced to MC members Nicky, Nate aka Riot , Crank; Maylie’s siblings Ivy and Toby; and the return of Howler, Nox, and Ravage. The requisite evil has many faces.

MACE is a story of power and control; betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies;violence and murder; family and relationships, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is dramatic and intense; the romance is seductive; the characters are dynamic and determined. MACE ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 22, 2024

He has been a part of my life longer than I can remember.
He’s seen it scrapped knees, birthday parties, and the worst moment in my life.
But I’m just a little sister to him.

To me, he is so much more.
He is all I have ever wanted.
I have never even considered anyone else.
But now that I am older, it’s time for me to make a decision.

Do I continue to wait for a man that doesn’t want me?
Or is it time for me to grow up?

Maybe it’s time for me to leave Severn and everyone I know in the rearview mirror.

••••

REVIEW: BROKEN PROMISE is the first instalment in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult MEN OF SEVERN erotic romance series. This is bar owner Wesley Blake, and Karmen Jones’ story line.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Wesley and Karmen) BROKEN PROMISES follows the tempestuous relationship between our story line couple. Approximately six years earlier Karmen’s brother, and Wesley’s best friend Tommy died, and Wesley made a promise to protect our story line heroine. Fast forward to present day, the relationship between Wesley and Karmen is at a stand still, and after Karmen professes her love for our story line hero, Wesley continues to push Karmen out of his life but another tragedy brings Karmen back home, soon to be followed by threats against the people she loves.

The world building is fast and furious as we are up closed and personal with grief and death, madness and mayhem, and the difficulty of letting go.

The relationship between Wesley and Karmen is a best friend’s sister; a story of rejection and pain in the face of a promise meant to keep everyone safe but a promise that will be broken when the heart finally awakes. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative.
We are introduced to the dynamic Blake brothers: Shane and Adam; Karmen’s best friend Lenor, and brother and sister duo Jacob and Charlotte Wilson .

BROKEN PROMISE is a story of love and loss, family and friendships, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is fast paced, entertaining and captivating-the novella packs a ‘lotta punch’. The characters are desperate and charismatic; the romance is fated and provocative.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 4, 2024

I’m not too fond of Christmas.
Even as a kid, my family never celebrated. What makes it worse now, is my friends, my club, trying to make me fit into a lifestyle that doesn’t suit me.
I’m not a nice guy.
I don’t like people.
Instead of feeling welcomed, their affection makes my skin crawl and sends me running on Christmas Eve. I find myself in the only place where people like me are the norm—From Dusk Til Dawn, the strip club owned by the Gypsy Bastards MC.
I’m here to drink, watch a few girls dance, and escape from everything my life has become.
That is until I lay eyes on Allegra.
All my plans are shattered as the brothel manager for the Cammareri family entices me. She is the one absolutely off-limits woman. She is the one woman I can’t stop thinking about.
How much damage can one night of fun do?

This is twenty-two year old, brothel manager Allegra, and thirty-five year old, MC member Bishop’s story line. THE GIFT crosses over with the author’s Cammareri Family series.

Both Allegra and Bishop despise the Christmas holidays, and find one another at the Gypsy Bastards MC owned strip club on Christmas Eve. One night together ends with Bishop disappearing from Allegra’s life, and in the ensuing time, our heroine will discover her life is about to change in many ways.

The world building reveals some of the background of our story line couple How Allegra met the Cammareri Family; and Bishop’s introduction to his life with the Gypsy Bastards MC.

The relationship between Allegra and Bishop is a friends to lovers in which a mutual disdains, and loneliness on Christmas Eve ends with only a good bye. The $ex scenes are erotic and provocative.

Particularly my family.
They own Mistletoe Town—a Hallmark movie come to life and a place most people only dream about. Thanks to an unexpected inheritance from my great-grandfather, it’s my personal nightmare.

But it’s not just the town I abandoned… it’s her.
And no matter how much I play the Scrooge, I’m about to find out some ghosts from the past can’t be ignored—or outrun.
Especially now that she’s my sweet new employee, baking spirits merry and bright.
If I want to stay off the naughty list, I have to learn how to play nice.

REVIEW: INHERITED HOLIDAY by M. Robinson is a stand alone, contemporary, adult, erotic, holiday romance story line focusing on general contractor and heir to Mistletoe Town Nicholas Saint Clair, and baker Noelle Woods.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Nicholas and Noelle) INHERITED HOLIDAY follows Nicholas Saint Clair as he returns to Mistletoe Town in the wake of his grandfather’s death. Nicholas wanted something different for his life, and left the family owned town years before but with his grandfather’s death came the surprise announcement that Nicholas had inherited Mistletoe Town, and was expected to make an appearance at the next town meeting. Nicholas had always wanted to do something else with his life, and when the woman he loved refused to leave, Nicholas walked away without looking back. Noelle Woods loves living and working in Mistletoe Town, and as the local baker, Noelle is looking forward to everything Christmas but the return of Nicholas Saint Clair brings with it too many heart breaking memories including the heart breaking reality of Nicholas walking out of her life. Reconnecting with Nicholas meant helping him overcome his Christmas Grinch ways, and in doing so, found the happiness she lost so many years before.

The world building focuses on the rekindling romance between our story line couple, a romance broken but Nicholas need to run from the town his family owned. Having always wanted to do something else, Nicholas found himself on the outside looking in upon his return to Mistletoe Town.

The relationship between Nicholas and Noelle is one of second chances; a rekindling romance in which Nicholas and Noelle never stopped loving one another, and were quick to forgive for sins of the past. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The colorful secondary and supporting characters include Nicholas brother Felix, and their sister Holly, parents and grandmother.

INHERITED HOLIDAY is a holiday story of family and friendships, relationships and love. The fast paced premise is inviting and spirited; the characters are animated, sassy and determined; the romance is spirited and tender.

As a pro hockey player for the Lauderdale Knights, my life is great—friends, hockey, and casual flings are all I need. Love isn’t even on my radar. But I’ll admit, dating my teammate’s hot sister sounds like a fun distraction.

Until I see her shy, nerdy friend sitting alone at the team party. Claudia’s nothing like the women I usually go for. She’s awkward, brilliant, and inexperienced, and I still find myself wanting more.

The problem? She’s headed back to Philadelphia, and I’m stuck here in Lauderdale.

One bad experience left me done with men. I’ve got a great job, supportive family, and friends who mean the world to me. The last thing I need is a smooth-talking playboy hockey hunk trying to worm his way into my heart— and pants.

But then I meet Anders, my best friend’s brother’s teammate, the swoon-worthy Swedish player who’s breaking through my walls.

What started as one week together turns into something I never expected. But I can’t trap him like his ex did. I love him too much.

This is twenty-seven year old, Swede Anders Nyberg, and twenty-four year old computer wiz Claudia Pomeroy. BODY SHOT can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.

Claudia is starting a new job in Philadelphia, and the hockey season opener is just weeks away. Trying a long distance relationship is their only option until Claudia pulls away, breaking Anders’ heart in the process.
