Yes! Finally, it is my favourite billionaire bad boy's time to get his story!
Right from the prologue, I knew this was going to be more than I could have wanted for Derek. Oh, but also from that chapter, I knew Cassie was going to do my head in.

I could understand some of her actions, but other times she came across as a bit of a doormat. She didn't fight for things that she should have, let everyone walk all over her, it was like she didn't have a mind of her own at times.

But this is not to say I didn't like her per se, just that she needed to grow a pair!

I loved that they finally fought for what they want in life. I love Derek's cockiness, but that he is not an arrogant arse with it all makes him all the more loveable.

I loved seeing more of the people from the first 2 books, and there was a surprise I wasn't expecting - and who is going to be the leading man of the new book.

Let's see if he can be redeemed! Can't wait for book 4.

You know that celebrity crush, your #1 that you would do anything to meet? Well, what would you really do to meet them?

Tia Monroe does everything from the hilarious to the downright illegal to meet her #1 crush, Hollywood heartthrob Erik Larsson.

What ensues is a a fun, sweet, sexy roller coaster of a ride that had me laughing out loud, and at times even brought a tear to my eye.

I liked that Tia was a little bit on kooky side, she was very relatable and just couldn't help but adore here.

If you have followed Ms Gephart's adventures in London last year, you will know that Eric is based on Alexander Skarsgard... and what it not to love about that!

I don't want to give anything away, but seriously, you need to read this book. It is one of the funnest books I have read in a long time.

Hands up if you have had a dodgy online dating experience (raises hand. Maybe one day I will tell you about the guy who was waaaaay too excited about his job in the viscera room at a pet food factory).

Ava and Patrick's story is sweet and funny and at times frustrating. But most of all it was full of hope. Hope that things will fall into place. Hopes that this could be it, this could be the one.

The best thing about our lovelies? They are real. They are relatable. They have their own body image issues, they aren't all 8 packs you can crack coconuts on, they aren't all perky boobs and perfects bums. They have wobbly bits, and I for one love them even more for it.

There were times that I wanted to punch someone through my kindle, I laughed, I cried, but most of all I cheered on two amazing characters finding themselves and maybe love as well.

This is only Miss Traynor's second book, but I will definitely be reading more as they are released in the future. She has quickly become one of my one-click, must read authors.

Now I am impatiently awaiting book 2 in the Time series.

It is always a great day when I get reunited with the lads and lasses from the Pucked series, but I was really, really wanting Lance's story.

And it was so much more than I could ever have expected.

Whilst it still has its funny and sexy and dirty times, Pucked Off is darker than the previous books. Lance is a tortured soul, a horrible childhood and years of felling like crap. I was surprised at how deep his demons ran, and what was behind the enforcer.

Poppy knows Lance from her childhood and now they are back in each others worlds ,but with what consequences.

And remember Tash from the earlier books? I really liked her before, but nope, her true colours have come out and don't want to give much away, but she is a bit of a psycho hose beast! And I just wanted to slap her with my kindle every time she turned up on the page.

Every page I turned I just needed to know more. I got frustrated at times with Lance's inability to let himself move forward, but at the same time I could understand.

Poppy is a strong, independent woman that I just adored from the get go.

We got lots of the other pucked people, and it was nice, as much as I freaking LOVE Violet's smutty mouth, to get a saner, deeper side of her at time. But we still got the crazy!

I really adored this addition to the Pucked series, it was sweet and sexy and adorable, and Lance Romance may now be my second favourite ranga (but no one will every beat my Prince Harry!)

Can't wait until we get more!

Get ready for the royal family does The Bachelor!

I adored Henry Pembrook in the first book, Royally Screwed, and I just knew that I was going to love his story.

And love it I did. So much more than I thought I was going to. My heart ached for him as he struggles with his newfound responsibilities.

Sarah was just too cute for words. I loved her shyness amongst the brash, confident women around her.

And I just couldn't get enough of The Prince and The Bookworm together. I needed them to get their hea, to me they were just perfect for each other.

I laughed, I sniffled, I devoured Royally Matched. I liked Royally Screwed, but a darn well loved Royally Matched.

I can't wait to see what Ms Chase brings us next in Royally Endowed!

Lauren Blakely book? Check!

Second chance romance? Check!

Sweet and sexy story? Check!

Every time a new Lauren Blakely book turns up on my Kindle I do a bit of a happy dance. I know I am going to get a sweet, fun, sexy book and it puts a smile on my dial.

I adored Tyler and Delaney's story. From their past together to the present, I just adored it all. Tyler was great back in the day, but now he is all that. The sparks still fly between our lovelies even though it has been a long time since they were together. Lust, like, perhaps even love are at the fore of their interactions.

I laughed, I cried, I got angry at times, but most of all I had a smile on my face as I read. Now I am wanting my own sexy lawyer man to turn up at my work and sweep me off my feet!

Can't wait for more from Ms Blakely. Please don't keep me waiting long!

I am loving the 1001 Nights series of novellas (not that I have read a lot of them, but loved when I have so far)

So it was a no brainer to read Sweet Rivalry - I mean hello it is a K Bromberg story!

This is a short but sweet and sexy second chance (kinda story) that I really enjoyed reading. There was plenty of spark, of lust, of lingering looks - oh and sexy times.

For a short story, it did not feel rushed, there was enough background to make it not feel like insta-love.

But gah that ending. I want - no I NEED - more of Harper and Ryder. I need more pash rash/beard burn. I need more sexy tattooed men in suits.

Please Ms Bromberg, I want some more.

It is no secret, my love for the m/m romance genre. I will read it till the cows come home.

But Ms Johnson has upped the ante with Triple Play - with a m/m/m romance.

I have died and gone to m/m romance heaven!

My heart broke for Drew in Curve Ball as we saw his best friend and guy he has loved forever fall in love with another man. Eric had been in the same place before he was traded to another team. Bryce previously met Drew and a connection was made, but no more was expected.

When events throw this trio together, you just know that things are going to get exciting.


Man do they heat up! You could feel the sexual tension bouncing off the walls!


You can feel Drew's confusion over his feelings for two men.


You can feel the frustration of all three men as they try to work out their "relationship".

But most of all, you can feel the love between all three men.

There are some super hot sexy times - oh to be in Ms Johnson's head as she puts these scenes together! Can I bring the vodka and popcorn and watch?

Ms Johnson also delved deeper into the LGBT world than she has done in the previous books.

I loved that we got more of the boys from the first two books - Sean and Mason, happily married and raising Mason's boy Asher. Like a peeping tom spying through the curtains, I loved getting a glimpse into their married life.

And we also get more of Jason and Cam's story -they are quite big players in Drew's life, so it was great to find out what happened after the end of Curve Ball - particularly with Cam.

Ms Johnson has quickly become one of my must reads in the m/m genre,and I can't wait to see what she brings us next.

Yes! We have had #TeamTraviola in the first duet, now it is time for Courtney and Drew to come to the front of the stage

We met both our lovelies in the first duet, and now that Travis and Viola have found their HEA, it is time for the fun and games with our new leading man and lady.

I have adored Courtney's not so hidden love/lust for Drew. She has always been very vocal about her adoration of the hot cop Drew. And her dislike of Drew's on again off again girlfriend Mia - but her dislike is very much warranted, she is such a b!tch, and as much as I wanted to slap her in the first duet, now I am in a full on hatred for the woman.

Drew is just... le sigh. He is the perfect best friend for our southern gal Courtney, but man I need him to open his eyes, wake up and smell the coffee, all those things to make him come to his stupid man senses.

There is plenty of fun and laughter and UST between our lovelies, and lots of buildup. But it wouldn't be a very good duet if everything was settled in the first part now, would it?

This is Reckless is sweet and funny and sexy and cute and all those things. Now, while you are off to Amazon to read this one, I am on the hunt for a #HotCop

#TeamDrewtney!
