Every Little Promise is a prequel novella to Lexi Ryan’s all new Orchid Valley series and gives us a introduction to Brinley and Martson’s history and what truly happened in Vegas.

I loved that Lexi wrote this book. It provided a lot of insight into how Brinley and Martson first met as teens and how ten years later they reconnected in Vegas. Brinley grew up in a mansion, her parents were wealthy. Martson was the bad boy, new to town, worked for Brinley’s family. Two people who shouldn’t be together. Now, Martson is doing well for himself and nothing like the boy he used to be when Brinley first met him.

I LOVED the chemistry between these two. There was an instant connection and throughout their ten years apart neither of them could forget the other and still had so much chemistry.

I can’t wait to see where their story goes in Every Little Piece of Me because I definitely have some questions that need to be answered after reading this one!

This may be my favorite month yet! Sports star hero and a single mom. How can you say no? Mr. September is so much more than that though. There is drama, suspense, steaminess and swoon worthy moments.

Brody spots Morgan across the bar and when he notices something suspicious, he jumps right in and becomes her knight in grey jeans. There is an instant attraction and instant chemistry between these two. Brody also turns out to be the head coach of her teenage sons basketball team.

I loved that Morgan was a super awesome single mom and that her son was a teenager. I love Brody, I mean how can you not?! He is super sweet, hot and not afraid to go alpha to protect Morgan. Morgan’s son, Ethan, provided a few laughs throughout the story. Much needed when it came to all the suspense in this one.

These Calendar boys are amazing and each month they just get better and better, but I think Brody is going to be a tough one to beat.

Saddler’s Secret was a FANTASTIC start to a whole new series by Nicole Rodrigues. I completely DEVOURED this book in a single sitting. I was hooked from the very start. The story and the characters drew me in and I fell in love with the entire Saddler family.

Genevieve is heading back home after the sudden death of her best friend. She is travelling with a three year old, she is feeling all sorts of emotions and she just needs a miracle. Enter the handsome stranger, who happens to sit next to her on the plane. He helps with the adorable Kenzie and also gives Genn a job lead in Arizona. Machlin is the oldest of the Saddler squad, CEO and all around alpha male. He feels like he needs to sacrifice everything ot make sure his siblings are well taken care of and that they are okay. This man was like an onion. There are so many different layers to him and the more they are peeled back the more I like the man.

The banter between Genn and Mac was fantastic and hilarious at times. I love the sassiness to Genn throughout the story and she can definitely handle herself in tough situations. Their chemistry was OFF THE CHARTS!

This book quickly become one of my favorite office romances. It is a MUST READ and I can’t wait for more of the Saddler squad in the future books.

Carolyn D. Pentecost is a new to me author and after reading this book I will definitely be reading more from her in the future. I DEVOURED this story. I couldn’t put it down and ending up staying up until 1 am just to finish the book because I had to know where the story was going.

Claire left her past life after a tragic event in her teens. Now she is about to get married and graduate Law School, that is until someone from her past comes back. Jax is a mystery, however, as the story progresses more and more information is revealed about him. Claire and Jax definitely had chemistry from the moment they met as teenagers and even when Jax comes back into Claire’s life.

Tainted Love is full of so many twists and turns that you will be sitting on the edge of your seat from the very beginning. So many things happened that I was not expected and my jaw was on the floor. I can’t wait to read book two to get more of the mysterious town of Black River Falls.

If suspense and mystery romances are your thing this book is a MUST READ!

I was completely sucked into the Formula 1 world that Lauren Asher has created with Throttled. The races, the forbidden romance, the amazing locations. It is IMPOSSIBLE not to fall in love with this book.

Noah and Maya’s romance is forbidden. She is the sister of his rival and new teammate. Maya knows all about Noah’s playboy ways, the whole world knows about the Despite everything there is an instant attraction between the two of them. There is so much tension and chemistry. I love that there was more to Maya than just a young woman who is spending the year following around her older brother on the prix circuit. She wants to do something on her own, she wants to be successful and she does exactly that with all of her vlogging. Noah comes across as a jerk, however, there is much more to him. He has a deeper side that no one sees and that is what makes him so amazing. I was seriously cheering him on by the end of the story!

The overall story is entertaining from travelling to all the different locations to the races themselves. There are sweet moments, action packed moments, a few scenes that will make you laugh and plenty of heat.

The secondary characters in this story were also amazing and each of them added so much from Maya’s brother, Santi. Her best friend and the Bandini owner’s daughter, Sophie. Plus two members from a rival racing team, Jax and Liam. I can’t wait to see more when it comes to all these secondary characters and get to know them on a deeper level.

Throttled is a FANTASTIC debut novel and the perfect mix of enemies to lovers/brother’s “friend” to lover. A MUST READ and hands down this will be on of my favorites for 2020.

Amanda Shelley is a new to me author and I can’t wait to read more from her in the future. The idea behind this book is what drew me to it. A romance author and a head football coach. Two people who seem so different from each other but they work so well together.

Dani and Luke meet on their small little island. When Dani doesn’t recognize Luke, he doesn’t give her all the details of who he is and what is job is. He loves the idea that this woman likes him for him, not for his money or career. However, Dani is a best-selling romance author with a pretty big following of her own.

I loved the instant chemistry these two people had. Their relationship progressed quickly, however, it didn’t feel rushed and fit with these two characters. I loved how supportive both Dani and Luke were of each others careers and wanted to make sure they both succeeded in what they were doing. The secondary characters, mostly both Dani and Luke’s families, were great additions and added a lot to the overall story. I hope that there are more of these characters in the future!

Making the Call is a super sweet, sports romance that will suck you in form the start. A MUST READ!

I DEVOURED this book in a matter of hours. Southern Comfort completely sucked me in and captured my attention from the very first page to the very last.

Olivia is hiding from her con of an ex fiancé. Casey is her best friends brother and her current roommate. Casey will do anything he can to keep Olivia safe and to keep her on the farm. If you read book one, Southern Chance, there were some unanswered questions such as who is after Olivia and why they are after her. Those questions will be answered. If you didn’t read Southern Chance you can still follow the story without any issues.

I loved Olivia and Casey from the first moment these two characters were introduced. Their banter is on point and the chemistry is on fire. I loved how protective Casey can be. He made Olivia feel safe when there was so much bad going on around her. Casey was a much more complex character than I expected. There is more to that man then just a cowboy.

Of course, this story left some unanswered questions leading into book three of this series and I can’t wait to return to the south!

Southern Comfort was hot, suspenseful, and addicting. A MUST READ!

Disavow is the final book of The Dumont series and honestly, this one was my favorite out of the three. Pascal was always painted as the villain, a bad boy and exactly the same of his father, but he is so much more than that.

Gabrielle spent her younger years in the Dumont mansion, her mom was a maid there, but after some terrible things Pascal’s father did, she was able to escape….only to find her back in the mansion and working for his son. She wants revenge for what was done and she is going to do anything she can to get it. She has the help from the one person she never thought she would get it from, Pascal. Pascal is instantly attracted to Gabrielle. There is something about her that he is drawn to, she softens his heart and opens his eyes. I loved the connection between these two and their banter.

If you’ve been following this story from the beginning you know there is a mystery that has been mention throughout all of them. Those unanswered questions are answered. Disavow was full of drama, suspense, and steam. It was a great ending to the series.

After reading Creole Kingpin I was majorly girl crushing on Magnolia. After reading Madam Temptress I am completely in love with Magnolia. She is a fighter, a survivor and strong. The conclusion to Magnolia and Moses’s story is flawless, addicting, and captivating. It was everything I wanted and so much more for these two.

Madam Temptress picks up right where Creole Kingpin ended, so if you haven’t read book one do that now because it is FANTASTIC! This book was the perfect mix of suspense, romance, steam, and mystery. Moses will make you swoon, Magnolia will have you cheering for her and you’ll be falling in love with these two characters even more.

Meghan does a fantastic job with her writing. She writes characters you can’t help but love. Characters that are strong and inspirational. The way she describes scenes paints a beautiful picture in your mind and you’re able to feel like you’ve jumped into the story and are working right along with these characters.

The Magnolia Duet is a fantastic series and the perfect escape. It will captivate you from page one of the first book and hold it until the final page of the last book. A MUST READ series and both books are in my list of TOP BOOKS of 2020.

Quinn looks like he has it all on the outside. He plays in the NFL and has a fantastic group of friends, however, there is so much the world doesn’t see or know about his life and the obstacles that he has to continually overcome. Georgia is the opposite of Quinn. She has a loving family, a great support system, but where she does relate is that she struggles with events of her past. Will Quinn be able to tell Georgia his truths? Will She accept them?

I love Quinn. The amount of pain and responsibility he takes on is insane, but despite the fact it has given some people bad opinions of him he does everything in his power to help and to keep his little sister safe. Georgia is so loving and caring and supportive. It is hard not love her, too. She was a rock for Quinn throughout so much of the story. The chemistry Quinn and Georgia had was amazing and instant. From the moment they met there was an attraction and a pull to each other.

I love the bromance between Griff, Aiden and Quinn. I’ve loved it from the beginning and it just continues to get better and better. They are truly more like brother’s than friends at this point. The fact that Georgia is instantly accepted into the fold is great.

The Hardest Play was hot, emotional and completely breathtaking. This story will break you heart, have you on the edge of your seat but it will leave you smiling at the end. A MUST READ!
