Release + Review - Unapologetically - Cala Riley






I have loved one boy my entire life.
 
Finley Abbot.
 
Too bad he's never shown a single sign that he feels the same way. What's that saying? If you love someone set them free? Letting go is the hardest part, so when Preston comes into my life I give it a shot. It's not like Finley will ever want me.
 
I'm a phony. An illusion meant to fool others into believing that I'm the playboy, rich prick. No one knows the facade more than her.
 
Tinsley Yates.
 
I've been pushing her away for years to protect her from my dirty secrets. But when he shows up, treating her like she's his, like a queen, I can't hold back anymore. He will learn not to touch what's mine.

Louise's Review 

Unapologetically is the 4th instalment in the Brighten Academy Series, we finally get Baby Yates story;

I have been hooked on this series from the very beginning.

Tinsley has been in love with Finley for years, when her father starts interfering in her life she has to decide what she wants for her future.
Finley Abbot has been hiding pieces of himself from his best friends for a long time; when everything comes to light and he finally admits that he has feelings for Tinsley, has she finally moved on and fallen for someone else?

I personally loved this story, I feel like Cala & Riley have been building their story since the beginning; their chemistry is scorching. Finley is so much more than what I ever thought he was.

Taking two steps forward, I reach my hand up to cup his cheek. Then I press a soft kiss to his lips, almost crumbling in the vulnerability I see shining in his eyes.
“I can’t love you anymore, Fin. If I do, I might not survive. I would do it in a heartbeat, but I couldn’t do that to you. While I wouldn’t survive you, you wouldn’t forgive yourself for what you did to me. That’s what I can’t handle. You breaking because of me.”
One last kiss, then I turn away from him, whispering as I go, “Goodbye, Finley Abbot.”

Release + Review - Tbone - L. Wilder





Over the years I’d been with my share of women. Hell, I’d had more than I could count, but for one reason or another, it never seemed to last. I’d told myself that I just hadn’t found the one, and I was okay with that. I had the club, and with my brothers at my side, I had everything I needed—or so I thought. 

Alyssa was young, smoking hot, and had the world at her fingertips. I knew better than to even give her a second look. I was too old, lived a life that wasn’t suited for a woman like her, and as if that wasn’t enough, she was Hyde’s younger sister.  

I told myself we were just friends, but in a heated moment, we crossed a line—a line I knew should’ve never been crossed. I knew then that one night would never be enough. There’d be consequences, but I honestly didn't care.

It wasn't until I lost her that I realized that it wasn’t about finding the one. It was about being the one. If she’d give me the chance, I’d be that for her and more—even if it meant giving up everything to have her.

Johnaka's Review 
“Unexpected love, 4 stars”


T-Bone and Alyssa were about as opposite you could get. She’s small, he’s big. She’s sweet, and he’s kind of scary. She’s young, and he’s older. She’s a little fragile and he’s just the man to put her back together. I really did enjoy the two of them together. They balanced each other well. I liked the dynamic between T-Bone and his MC. The only thing I didn’t like is it seemed like time jumped almost without warning. It caught me off guard.  But even with that said I think T-Bone is a solid story about how communication is needed, no matter how old you are.

Release + Review - Poodle - K.L Savage






I’ve never known the calm after the storm. 

Thunder has always raged inside me.
I met a girl at seventeen.
Girl got pregnant.
My worst nightmare happened.  
Girl? Dead.
Daughter? Gone.
Every time I close my eyes, I see them.
No one takes me seriously in the MC.
And that’s how I like it. 
I keep my true self−hidden because without them, life hasn’t been worth living.
Until her.
Melissa is the shock to my heart to bring me back to life.
Our nightmares bind us. 
And to love her like she deserves, I have to let go of the past.
I have to let go of them.
It’s easier said than done.
Because I know in my heart my daughter is alive.
I’ll need the help of my MC to find her.
But Melissa’s past isn’t done with her either.
         
What I didn’t expect?
Ours pasts to cross.
And the road to trust just got a whole lot longer.  

Johnaka's Review 

“Mind blown, 4 stars" 

During the whole Ruthless Kings series, I’ve known there was more to Poodle. I didn’t know what, but I knew his story was going to be a major wtf kind of story. Well, Savage nailed it. I would have never seen Poodle’s story going where it did and I was here for it.

Melissa, god my heart hurt for the poor girl when we first met her. Add in that even though Poodle was nice to her I just knew it wouldn’t be easy for them not just because of her but him too. She grew leaps and bounds from the scared girl we first met to now. I loved it.

The only thing I didn’t like about Poodle was the fact I figured out the twist right off the bat.  I can’t say you will see it coming but you may. I’m just really good at calling these kinds of things out. With that said I think if you like MC books you will enjoy Poodle and the Ruthless Kings MC.

My soul is black, my heart is grim, and my mind is made up. Love’s a culprit to my sadistic tendencies.
I wait to get to the edge of the end of the driveway before taking a right down the road, and that’s when I let me engine go.
I fly down the path, my cut whipping from the wind, and I begin to think about my target, what I want, who I want, and why.

AUTHOR BIO
K.L. Savage decided they were tired of looking for the kind of books they wanted to read. They had an itch that needed to be scratched, and as every girl knows, nothing scratches better than an alpha.

They write about gritty, alpha males, sometimes their dark sides, and the women they love.
If you have the same itch, their alpha males should fix that.

Release + Review - Devious Little Liars - Elle Thorpe






“Everybody lies, Princess. Some of us are just better at not getting caught.”

He murdered my uncle then covered it with fire. A fire that should have killed me, too. Instead, he hauled me from the floor while flames licked the walls, strong arms holding me close.
He saved my life.
Now I want to know why. I never saw his face. All I know is the letters on his shirt. SVH.
Saint View High.
The worst school in a hundred miles. Full of drugs and despair. Breeding ground for future criminals. Armed security guards and weapon checks at every door.
A far cry from my privileged life of money, private school, and fancy vacations.
With the police doing nothing, I take matters into my own hands. I enroll in a school I have no business being at.
But the Untouchables are quick to let me know exactly how big a mistake I’ve made. They’re the group of boys even the teachers are scared of.
Colt. Banjo. Rafe.
Every teenage girl’s dream. Good looking. Popular. Powerful.
And determined to break me.
Thing is, I’m not that easily broken. And I’m coming for them, too.

Devious Little Liars is the story of three bad boys and a girl who knows how to stand her ground. It is a mature high school/new adult, #whychoose romance, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. This book contains enemies-to-lovers and bullying themes. It is the first book in an ongoing trilogy.

Louise's Review 
Colt. Banjo. Rafe. 3 Bad Boys. Reverse Harem. Bully Romance. Suspense. Thriller.

Devious Little Liar is book 1 in the Saint View High series; the start of a trilogy that is going to keep me hanging after each and every book for more.

Lacey’s world has been turned upside down and when the smokes clears, she has a plan and nothing is going to stop her from finding out the truth. When she catches the attention of 3 ‘Untouchables’, not all of them are welcoming. Finding out the truth is a long path that is filled with humiliation, lies and deceit. Has Laney been putting her trust in the wrong people?

This book… speechless; hands down Elle Thorpe’s best work yet, I couldn’t put it down, who needs sleep anyway? From the moment I read the blurb I knew I needed this book, what I was not prepared for was the suspense from page 1 and a cliff hanger that has left me with more questions than answers. The countdown begins until I can get my hands-on book 2.

If you need to find me....I'm pretty much everywhere lol



Release + Review - Trick You - Tracy Lorraine








I hated to trick her...
 
But I knew she would never go for the real me.
She was beautiful, smart and funny—everything I could want. 
 
And I was... well. Me. 
Tattooed, foul mouthed, bad boy. 
 
I told one little white lie hoping to meet someone different. And I did. 
 
Danniella Abbot.
 
She wasn’t who I was expecting, and I guess she could say the same, because Danni made it very clear she wasn’t interested in me or my reasons for lying. 
 
The fact that she was my best friend’s little sister only complicated an already impossible situation. 
 
I didn’t intend on tricking her. I just wanted her to give me a chance, to discover who I am underneath the ink.
 
She can fight me all she likes because we both know that I’m exactly her type. She just doesn’t know it yet. 
 
What happens when you wake up married to the woman you tricked into a date?
 
You kiss the bride and prove her wrong.

Louise's Review 


Trick You is book 2 in the Rebel Ink series, after reading book 1 in this series I was DESPERATE to get my hands-on Titch and Danni’s story.


Online dating, the one thing that could go so horribly wrong especially when someone ‘tricks’ you into believing who they are, Danni has been searching for the perfect man. ‘Carter Wright’ aka Titch is sick of the one-night hook ups and when he finds the most amazing woman, she has a set of must haves on her list and he doesn’t tick them. When they end up in Vegas together to witness a wedding, they have a night they will never forget, but will what happens in Vegas stay in Vegas?

The chemistry between these 2 is insane, their back forth banter is everything you could want. Titch is holding back and when Danni finally finds out will it make or break them?

I personally LOVED this story, from the moment it hit my kindle adulting was thrown out the window and I couldn’t put it down. Lorraine has again created a masterpiece, if you have not read Tracy Lorraine before you are missing out!

Release - What's Left of Me - Kristen Granata





“It’s very rare that an author surprises me. Kristen Granata didn’t just surprise me, she completely blew me away. If you love emotional, poignant, and healing romance, you simply cannot miss What’s Left of Me. A five-star must read and a lovely introduction for me to a new author I know I’ll love for years to come.” Bestselling Author Kandi Steiner

Callie Kingston’s life as an Orange County housewife isn’t as perfect as it seems. Her husband isn’t the same man she fell in love with nine years ago, and her home is no longer her safe haven. But she’s determined to keep up appearances, especially when it comes to concealing the bruises her husband’s temper leaves behind.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Until Cole Luciano moves into her best friend’s house across the street. He’s abrasive and rude, but his steel-blue eyes tell a different story—one with dark secrets that has Callie curious.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After suffering through an unspeakable tragedy, Cole lives in his sister’s pool house until he can get back on his feet. He’s convinced that he deserves to live with the guilt he harbors from his past, and wants nothing more than to be left alone. Yet he can’t seem to stay away from his beautiful neighbor. He sees right through Callie’s carefully orchestrated lies and is desperate to help her.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Callie discovers more than an angry and bitter man underneath Cole’s hard exterior. But when Callie finally finds the courage to create a new life for herself, Cole isn’t sure if there’s enough of his heart left to give in order to be the man she deserves.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Can two broken souls heal each other, or are some just too damaged to be put back together?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*This book contains some graphic scenes and very sensitive subject matter.

Author Bio:
Kristen Granata is a teacher by day, and an (exhausted) author by night. Known for writing emotional New Adult Romance, she loves creating realistic, flawed characters who struggle through the darkest parts of life and come out stronger on the other side. Kristen is a self-proclaimed "bitter cynic trapped in a hopeless romantic's body." Her characters pack a sarcastic punch, make you laugh, make you think, make you ugly cry - and they will always live happily ever after. If you're a lover of moving, inspirational reads, Kristen's your girl.

Kristen was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1986. She moved to Staten Island with her family and lived there for almost twenty years. There she attended community college and became a teacher. Despite her passion for writing, and despite her professors strongly suggesting she become a writer, she took the more sensible route (bitter cynic, remember?) After going through a difficult divorce when she was only twenty-nine, Kristen returned to writing. The raw story that poured out of her led her to publish her debut novel, Collision, in March of 2018. Soon after in August 2018, the sequel, Avoidance, was published. Her third novel, The Other Brother, released in April 2019.

Kristen openly shares her mental health struggles with depression and anxiety with her Instagram following. Her message is a beacon of hope to anyone who is suffering: You are not alone. She delicately weaves this theme into her writing, and demonstrates the ability of love to heal trauma.

When she's not teaching or writing, Kristen is reading, Instagramming, indulging in her messy love affair with popcorn, and annoying her wife and step-daughters by incessantly singing along to The Greatest Showman soundtrack.

Release + Review - Billion Dollar Date - Bella Michaels






🔥🔥 HOT NEW RELEASE 🔥🔥




Billion Dollar Date by Bella Michaels is LIVE and FREE in KU! Spice up your summer with Enzo DeLuca!






"Hello, Enzo."

With just two simple words, Chari Atwell storms back into my life.

Beautiful. Irresistible. The woman standing before me is not the girl I knew growing up.

And I'm not the same hopeful kid everyone thought was going nowhere fast. 

Nowadays, I'm a hero. A celebrity. A man who isn't content with the billions in his bank account.

Call me ambitious, if you want. I have my sights set on the rest of the world, and don't have time for a relationship, including the one woman who still has the power to bring me to my knees.

I will not break.

I will not succumb.

Except that I'm used to getting exactly what I want, and after one chance encounter, it's clear that what I want is Chari Atwell...

Even if she is my best friend's little sister.

Johnaka's Review 
“Making your move, 4 stars”

Enzo has had a thing for his best friends’ sister for years but never made a move. But when he goes home for the opening of his brother’s new restaurant, he decides enough is enough. He wants the girl. Chari has always crushed on Enzo, but she knows nothing will ever come from it. Until it does. The question is, is it too good to be true?

I liked Enzo and Chari. She liked him before he had money and treats him like he’s still a guy from the neighborhood. I liked their friends and what they brought to the table. I think if you like billionaire stories where the wooing is over the top and brothers best friend stories you will like Billion Dollar Date.
