David Michael is a new to me author, however after reading Porter, I will definitely be going back to read more.

So, a romance about a porn star? How is that going to work you ask? Well, I have to say, it worked really well.

Porter, Parker and Preston Hale - brothers and porn stars - The Dick Dynasty.

At first I thought Porter was a bit of a dick - no pun intended - but as the story progressed, his heart really starts to shine through.

He does not make such a great impression on Holly, but she sure makes one on him!

This is a great description of "judging a book by it's cover". Assumptions are made and it is great as we watch these assumptions shatter as they get to know each other more.

I adored the relationship that Porter has with his family - you would think that with the industry they are in that they would be quite dysfunctional, but that could not be further from the truth. Porter is kind of the patriarch of the "dick dynasty"

I loved the banter between Porter and Holly, and even more so between Holly, Porter and her two best friends, Becks and Mitch. OMG hilarious! Becks and Mitch need to get a book of their own!

Besides the fun and laughter and sexy times (and there are some ssseeeeexxy times), Porter also has a bit of a darker storyline that will continue in the rest of the series.

Yes, this does end on a cliffhanger, but we will have the next book before the end of the year.

I look forward to reading Parker and Preston's stories.

This is the second book in this series, however it could be read as a stand alone - but why would you want to miss any of the goodness that is Power Station.

We first met Megs and Troy in Dan and Ash's book - since they are Ash and Dan's respective best friends.

Right from the start there has been that spark between them, though neither of them wants to act on it.

Oh boy, when they do act on their attraction - BOOM - man it is HOT!

I love the banter between Megs and Troy Harris (you have to use his full name!) It is funny, it is sexy, it just makes you smile.

As fun and sexy as Crash Ride is most of the time, there were a few tears from me at times.

I loved that we got more of Dan and Ashlyn - Dan just cracks me up!

Now I neeeed to know more about the other boys, Stat!

I have loved everything I have read to date of Laurelin Paige, so I knew that I would adore this collaboration with Kayti McGee - and I was not wrong.


You know that saying "don't judge a book by it's cover?" This is pretty much the underlying theme of Miss Match


Andrea - sounds like Princess Leia - is a quirky kind of girl, and has a talent for reading people.


Blake Donovan - sexy rich man in want of a wife, and Andy's skillset is just he thing.


Oh the tension between these two! From the minute Andy steps in for her interview, Blake knows she is just what he needs.


But is she more than he bargained for/


I loved the banter between Andy and Blake. It is smart, witty, funny, down right sexy. There is so much chemistry between them that at times I felt like the air would combust around them. I just wanted them to"do it" already!


I laughed a lot whilst reading Miss Match, but there was also more than one or two tears at times.


The story flowed well, the characters gelled so well together that you just knew things would be dynamite if they ever got their act together.


So, can our lovelies get their HEA, or will things be too much for their fledgling relationship to overcome.


Nope, for that you are going to have to read for yourself.


I look forward to reading more collaborations between Paige and McGee

Corinne Lee has just scored every woman's dream job - 12 weeks on the road photographing the sexy men of Wild Nights Male Review - what woman (or many a man) with a heartbeat wouldn't jump at the chance?

Admit it, you would jump right on that tour bus, right?

Yep, dream job alright. Until Cori meets resident man-whore Josh Adams.

You know when you are reading, and you come across one of those characters that just does you head in? You sit there and they frustrate you so much, that you clench your fists, want to throw your kindle across the room, you yell at your screen?

That was how I felt about Josh. I wanted to knee him in the balls then kiss the sh*t out of him. What a frustrating douche of a man he is at times - well, most of the time.

To say the attraction between Cori and Josh is intense would be underplaying it. It is electric, it is unmissable. And you just know that it is going to be one hell of a ride.

I adore Cori and know that not many women could be strong enough to resist all that sexy testosterone. And those boys really need to learn a few boundaries. I was mortified for her at times when they pushed things a little too far.

Josh - gah! Just when you think this guy has changed his man-whoring way, BOOM, back he goes. My heart just breaks, not just for Cori but for Josh too. I just want him to get his crap together!

I loved the rest of the guys in the troupe. They are all sweet and caring - but such men! I do hope we get more of their stories.

I could not put Revue down once I started, and I am looking forward to what Ms Golland gives us next.

Another K. Bromberg book - woohoo!

This time we have a rockstar - with a little bit of Colton thrown in for good measure - can I get a hell yeah! Anyone who knows me or has read my reviews knows that I am a sucker for a rock star book, so this was always going to be a no-brainer for me.

Remember Quinlan - Colton's sister? Well, this is her story - and what a story it is!

Busy with finishing her college degree, and soooo over men, the last thing Quin wants is another relationship with another douche of a man.

Until Hawkin Play falls into her life.

The banter between Quin and Hawkin "Professor Play" is fun, witty, and sexy as hell. Heck, Hawke is sexy as hell.

Whilst Sweet Ache is fun and sexy, there are also some darker issues that are dealt with, especially on Hawke's side.

I laughed, I may have shed a few tears, may have yelled at my kindle more than once . Sweet Ache sucked me in right from the first chapter, and I couldn't put it down.

Can't wait for Tanner's story in Hard Beat.

I wasn't sure what I was going to think about Preston and Amanda's book.

I have had a bit of a love/hate relationship with Preston- I mean he could be such and ar*ehole at times. And the way he treated the girl he was with - hmmm yeah.

The depth of Preston actually surprised me, and my heard could not help but hurt for him. The more we learnt the more I liked him

My heart broke for Amanda over and over as things progressed,I adored how strong she could be when she least expected herself to be that way.

Loved that we got more of Marcus and Low, Cage and Eva and the rest of their motley crew.

On to book 5

Move over Alexander Burnham - it is time for another Mr Burnham to shine!


This series focuses on the youngest Burnham sibling, Tyler. And what focus it is!



After events in the past, Tyler has closed himself off from love. Love em and leave em, that has been as far as his relationships have gone for a lot of years.

Until Mackenzie.

Mackenzie has demons of her own that she has pushed to the side but never tried to overcome.

There is an intensity between Tyler and Mackenzie. There is such strong attraction between the pair, but there is something more too.

Both have secrets from each other, and we all know how that always works out!

And when I got to the end of Chasing the Dragon, I knew that it was going to end in some kind of way like it did. There was no other way that this first part of the duet could end. I wanted to yell at Tyler and Mackenzie to stop what they were doing, knowing where things were heading.

T.K Leigh pulled me into this story, and I was dragged kicking and screaming out of it! I was captivated, needing to know more and more about our lovelies. There is a bit of a mystery woven into our story that will keep you on your toes. Who is the good guy, who is the bad?

Ms Leigh took me on an emotional rollercoaster. I laughed out loud at times, wanted to cry at others. The flow and pace of the story was just right. Though set over the period of only a couple of weeks, nothing felt rushed. The progression of the relationship felt natural (I am not a fan of the insta-love relationships we get in so many books).

I loved Mackenzie's best friends - I think we all need friends like them in our lives.

We were left on a bit of a cliffhanger (which Ms Leigh does apologise for at the end of the book), and yes I am impatient to find out what happens to Tyler and Mackenzie, but the wait (which is not going to be toooo long) is well worth the anticipation - delayed gratification and all that shiz!

3.5 - 4 stars

I am really enjoying this Chase Brothers series,

We first met Shane in book 1, and I have to say, he was quick an ass in that one.

I liked how we got to see deeper than the arrogant womaniser we met in the first book.

Cassie turns his head the minute she moves into town, and he doesn't want it any other way.

I adored Cassie - stronger than she thinks she is after all she has been through, but I could completely understand her hesitance around not just Shane but men in general.

Shane's mother is a hoot, and I love the banter between all the Chase Brothers and their women and friends around them.

At times I felt that the story was a little bit rushed, but not so bad that it took too much away from enjoying the story.

Now I need to get onto the next book.

ARC received from Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for an honest review

From the blurb, I was not really sure why the O'Malley's were so dangerous. Was Teague just a player who needed a wife to keep the family happy? What business would need this kind of alliance.

But once I started, well, let's just say that yes, I could completely understand what kind of "family business" would require the alliance.

The O'Malley, Sheridan and Halloran families are all mob families, and allegiances and alliances are all the more understandable.

Teague O'Malley - can I get a swoon?!? I adored him from the first time he was on the page, and he just got better and better.

Callie Sheridan is the other half of the "business arrangement". And is the heir to Teague's family's .. I guess you would call them the enemy.

But when Callie and Teague are in he same room together, man the chemistry! Phew, you could cut the sexual tension with a knife.

This is not just a romance though, there are deeper, darker story lines running through this first story, and later stories in the series.

This is a bit of an insta-love kind of relationship, which I usually don't like, but in this case it didn't bother me as much as it usually does. They might like each other, but can they trust each other?

Nope, for that you are going to have to read for yourself.

There were some secondary characters that I really liked, but there were some that even a day later, I am not sure what to think of them. There was also a great set up for the next book in the series.

Katee Robert is a new-tome author, but her writing has me interested in reading more of her work.

The Marriage Contract was a great start to the O'Malley's series, and I look forward to what Ms Robert has for us next
