Chris and Lily have been married for years. Suddenly Chris has become distant and sort of cold when he was laid off from his job. Lily was at work one day at the post office when her dentist came in to pick up some packages. He turned to her, gave her one of the packages and told her to open the package in front of and with Chris. With Chris and Lily not being on the same page of late, their dentist decides to help this couple find their way back to each other by encouraging them to find their deepest desires and to unleash them. This is a short yet sexy story. I enjoyed this delicious, naughty dentist who loves to stir up trouble of the best kind. I cant wait to see what will happen next in this new series.

He has decided to start over in a new place in order to help his child who was struggling after the death of her mother from cancer. Frederique Marchand also known as Freddy , is a local youth counsellor who supports teens with complex and emotional issues which she uses her dog named Boulder to help her out with this. When Newt asks for her help with his daughter Millie, she immediately lends a hand and strikes up an immediate rapport with the young girl. At first, Freddy’s first couple run ins with Millie’s dad weren’t that good because these two adults clashed and there was this attraction between them that they all but ignored but because they cared about Millie. Their romance was a slow burn romance. It slowly but surely got there. There was some angst, some drama, pain of loss , tension. This was a realistic romance for the H/h are both in their 40s. This is something to be read and enjoyed. I do not want to give any spoilers away but what I will say is this was a heartwarming read that left me feeling good and what a great epilogue.

She is getting to know her half older bro Innocent Target by Katie Reus is the 4th book in the Redemption Harbor series. Hadley Lane is a sweet woman. She is getting to know her half older brother and her father. She had a pretty rough upbringing and now after meeting to half-brother and her father, she has found this peace. She thinks its funny that they are so overprotective yet it makes her feel good. When the story starts, we see that someone is out to kidnap and torture Hadley. Axel O’Sullivan is initially one of the Hit-men for hire out to get Hadley yet he couldn’t go thru with hurting her. He was hired by an unknown enemy who wanted him to take Hadley and deliver her to this unknown enemy. Axel realizes how innocent Hadley was and he soon couldn’t do that, especially when they met over spilled coffee and he came to see how sweet and innocent she was. He decided he would do all he could to protect her. OMG I loved Axel! He knew by hiding who he was, and letting Hadley think he was this different person, it could ruin their relationship that was building and yet he was determined to do this all in order to protect her from harm. Hadley was so kind, sweet, sassy and beautiful. She had a pretty rough life and now she is getting a chance to know what happiness is and suddenly someone is trying to take that from her and she doesn’t know why. Hadley isn't from the world that Axel, her brother and all the other characters in this series work in. She is innocent yet has a steel core that amazed me. She rolled with the punches and stood firm. This is a standalone but the previous characters are secondary and are interwoven in. This is fast pace, intriguing, sizzling and exciting. I loved every minute; I’m most definitely looking forward to the next book.

This is the first romance that I have read by Kelly Jamison that wasn’t a sports romance. Screwed is a steamy, angsty, yet sweet romance about a woman who finds her own self-worth after her divorce and a 2nd chance at love with her ex’s best friend. Callie is recently divorced and starting over. Her family isn’t supportive of anything she has done recently including her divorce because Beau, her ex, was , in their eyes, the perfect husband for their business connections. Cash Hale is Callie’s ex-husband’s best friend and is also her friend. Their friendship escalates to this red-hot attraction, but as the attraction rises so does the obstacles in their way! In this story, we find out Cash has been in love with Callie for years but never acted on his feelings until now. Will Callie and Cash let their romance go all the way for an HEA or will Cash pull back because of his friendship with Callie’s ex? This was a good read, with the right amount of drama, angst, tension and romance.

They are all entangled in a web of secrets, lies and nasty truths. M. Never tells a story that really has you on the edge of your seat, with you thinking you know what is going on but not really, not until the very end and everything is flipped upside down. This was a story with many twists, turns, heartbreak, heartache, hope, passion, upset, regret, forgiveness and never-ending love. I don’t want to give away the ending but I know there is this one character I hope M Never writes a story for. I would hope we get to see again. I feel there is something that is left hanging and would love to see this person get the closure needed. This was a fantastic story with a beautiful and brilliant cast of characters.

It is sort of a taboo stoIrish Kiss by Sienna Blake is a complex, unique and addicting story. It shows the characters in the past and in the present. It is sort of a taboo story about a teenage girl and a man who’s a decade older than her –he is her juvenile liaison officer which meant he held a position of authority over her. I didn’t know what to make of Saoirse and Diarmuid- their love story is messy, complicated yet they love each other. The story starts when they first met. Saoirse has a father in jail and a completely neglectful mother. Diarmuid gets assigned to her and he is the type of person who goes beyond what the job detailed for “his children”. He wasn’t a bad guy, just someone who would go the extra mile yet when it came to Saoirse he went so far extra; he met her when she was 13 and rescued her. Their story is spread out and told. Saoirse fell in love with Diarmuid –saw him as her soulmate, as the only person that understood her. The love story part doesn’t come into play until she is of legal age. There's lots of twists and turns throughout this story to keep the readers hooked throughout from start to finish. As I mentioned, this is a story that is complex and is complicated. There is a villain in the story and I wish I found out what ever happened to said villain. It was as if that was rushed thru to get to ending and I would have liked that not to have been rushed but overall this was a beautiful love story with a handsome, alpha male and a beautiful, sweet woman.

I enjoyed the witty banter that was between Cash and Gretchen; how super easy it was for Cash to get Gretchen all riled up and that her strong and emotional reactions only served to fuel and ignite his passions for her. I found myself appreciating Cash’s struggles over his father’s legacy and Cash's desire to follow his own ethics. Gretchen was an intriguing mix for a character. At times I found her to be too judgy on some things yet overall, she was a sassy bit of goods and was someone Cash needed in his life to challenge him. I enjoyed the scenic images painted of the Auras shop and the glimpse into the metaphysical world of Tarot cards and healing crystals . This story is well written, with a fantastic pace and super steamy with angst and drama that is good for this type of romance. If i had to think of anything that could be improved, it would be the length--I think it didn't needed to go on for as long as as the book did. I will say the twist was awesome and I didn't see that coming. As always, I look forward to reading what's next from Ms. Ward.

Harper's father has a habit of marrying and then getting divorced- the latest marriage has a new wife who has a son named Christopher. Harper and Christopher have this instant spark between them. They have a spark but also there is a dislike between them. Harper attempts to keep things between them cool because things never last long when it comes to her father’s marriages but tragically the unthinkable happens- her father dies. Now Harper is lost in a sea of emotions and doesn’t know where she belongs and what to do. Christopher sees her as a spoiled rich little girl which really isn’t true but in his eyes that may look the case. Harper has such a sweet and huge heart. She is kind and she is so amazing. Harper and Christopher have a short and intense background which relates to an incident on her father’s boat. That’s all I’m going to say…She was 15 at the time. Now 4 years have passed and Harper is 24 yrs old. Four years have passed since Harper’s father died, and made Christopher the executor of her vast trust fund. Her mother is now in remission from cancer and Harper needs some of her money to help her mother acquire a new medicine that's under trial. She is hoping to get Christopher on her side to help her out and sign some of her funds over to her but he immediately refuses to do so. She storms down to his office and goes in to see him where she runs into his business partner Sutton. OMG Sutton..he is such a dirty boy. Not an uptight man. Oh the mouth on Sutton and he wants Harper. Wants to do dirty dirty things to her. Christopher keeps his feeling close to his chest about what he thinks , especially when it comes to Harper. Sutton is a master manipulator and goes and hires Harper re: Historical Society of Tanglewood but don’t rule Christopher out just yet. He is just waiting to make his moves. You don’t see much of Christopher in this book but what you did see of him =wow, the fans had to be used to cool me off. Sutton and Harper were extremely hot and intense in this book. I could just feel how confused Harper was, for she has always had strong feelings for Christopher, dare I call it love? I have to admit, I am torn as to what team I am on- #TEAMCHRISTOPHER or #TEAMSUTTON. I loved both men yet they both have flaws and both have awesome qualities. Its going to be hot to see who ultimately wins Harper’s hand in the followup. This book is steamy, erotic, dramatic, angsty, and action packed. This book has many twists and turns and ends on a cliffhanger. I am dying to find out what happens in the upcoming book 2.

Insta-lust, insta-love, insta-sex. And I insta- LOVED it!! Alyssa is a singer/ actress star. She is in the spot light alot which makes her open to alot of tabloid gossip which most is not true. Alyssa is moving into her new home and Diesel is one of the movers. Diesel gets asked to be her bodyguard for just a week until her regular team is back on site and in place. Diesel finally agrees to be her Bodyguard- knowing this will help his business and bring more money if he does this side job which is why he does it. Alyssa is known as a brat which isnt that true - she can be somewhat bratty but Diesel can be the man who can tame the brat in her. They argue fiercely, until they start snogging like bunnies, and wham bam, they fall madly in love. All In one day. There is more to this story, like who is harassing Alyssa and what their motives are. This story is hot, steamy and on point. Another Faye Winner.

What you get is over-Pr*ck Charming by Madison Faye is the 4th book in the Royally Screwed series. This is the story of Prince Cole & Princess Faith. What you get is over-the-top, very naughty read of a bad boy rocker Prince and a Good Girl Princess along with the addition of lots of tequila to their first time meet which equals wonderfully red hot and entertaining royal romance. Cole is this complex bad boy Prince yet when he sees Faith in the crowd at his concert being hassled by some men, he immediately knows she is his. He rescues her from them and steals her away only to realize who her father is. Yet he is attracted to her as she is to him. Faith goes from bring the perfect princess, the royal good girl to the bad girl in one royal swoop after seeing and meeting Cole. Theirs was an intense, deep chemistry on meeting and their interactions are quite wild afterwards. Only thing that is between them is Faith’s father and him trying to prevent Cole from taking the crown. Oh what a bad parent. There are many twists in this story and also a lot of heat. This is another hit for Ms. Faye and this is one fantastic series. Loved all the heated encounters with all the Princes and Princesses shown throughout the novellas in this series. The story is intense and fun. Just know this is a standalone, with this story overlapping with the other 3 books in this series.
