    King - FB banner.jpg

    I really do like Jack a lot!  He is more than a hot as F hockey player.  Like the blurb says, he is down-to-earth.  Once he sees Willa, he is willing to do or be anything just to keep him in the running for her heart. Willa needs to get her head on straight and let her heart do what it wants to do with Jack.  She gets Aunt of the Year in my book.  King is rightly named, because I crown him as boyfriend of the year!

     

     

    Jack Kingston is known for his dominant playing skills on the ice, but off the ice, he’s a down-to-earth guy who values a true connection over a meaningless hookup.

    I love being a member of the Pittsburgh Titans, even if my teammates are constantly ribbing me about women who they claim are throwing themselves all over me. Could I go for the easy lay? Sure, but that’s not my style. I’m more of long-term kind of guy. Instead, I’m going to keep doing what I do best  — killing it out on the ice. Everything else will fall into place … eventually.

    That time comes sooner than expected, in the most unlikely of ways. At the rink to watch our goalie’s kids play Peewee hockey, I meet Willa Montreaux and somehow, by the end of that interaction, I’ve offered to help her coach the Ice Pups. Altruism or were there other intentions in that offer? A little of both, if I’m being honest.

    As the time I spend with Willa increases, I am absolutely certain I want even more. She’s gorgeous, sure, but that’s superficial. Willa is also funny, loving, determined and smart. SO smart. Doctor smart. Probably too intelligent for a jock like me, but that’s not going to stop me from shooting my shot.

    Not looking for anything more than a fling and concerned that she’s too old for me, Willa doesn’t want to venture into anything serious. I’m willing to put in the work and give her the space she needs to come to terms with the fact that the connection we have is far more than physical. Willa and I are end game, but I’m willing to play into overtime if that’s what it takes to walk away with her by my side.

    To the Authors I owe reviews to, I am so sorry these are late.  My life has been hectic, to say the least, since the death of my father in April.  My mother has now became my responsibility and time has gotten away from me.  It is no excuse, but there ya go.

    The Forbidden (Bluegrass Empires, #2)The Forbidden by Sawyer Bennett

    A lot of questions are answered in this book . Kat and Gabe had a past no one knew about . Readers of Book I figured out they had the hots for each other before this book was published. Gabe did what he needed to do for his girl, even stand up to her family. The good thing is we also find out the truth about how the feud really started. Hate should never last as long as they do in this series.

    I can totally see this series be made into a Netfilx series one day. I know I would watch it.

    Proving Murder (P.D.A. #6)Proving Murder by Cree Storm

    We have been waiting for Winter’s story for a while. Ever since he came to PDA. Losing his dad the way he did was bound to have a negative effect on him. A new physician is what PDA really needed. Now that Vance has filled the spot, no one knew that Vance was going to fill the spot as mate as well. When Winter witnesses a murder, it is up the PDA to find out who was killed, who killed him, and why, while Winter and Vance a new relationship and a new mating. What a great book with romance and a who done it twist.

     

    Her Brave Warrior (Omega Sky Book 6)Her Brave Warrior by Caitlyn O’Leary

    Matteo is one of the sweetest men on the team. He is gorgeous too. When he needs to go undercover to find who is trying to kill the team and their families, he never thought he would have found his ideal woman. Lainey is a rebel southern belle trying to be who she wants to be and not what her mother wants her to be. When a hottie of a man comes to help her with a flat tire, of course she accepts his help. From there, emotions emerge as the team tries to find their enemy. A lie of omission is still a lie, but is it worth ending a relationship over. This is a great book. I really loved how Lainey made Matteo fall in love with her through his stomach.

  • Foster by Sawyer Bennett

    Posted on by Karen 1 Comment

    This book is touching, sexy and inspiring all at the same time.  Foster is the type of guy anyone would want.  His ex was a complete waste of human being to do that to her daughter.  I mean, do what you want to Foster, but leave Bowie out of it!  The way Foster does anything and everything for his daughter gets you in the feels.  If you don’t see the romance coming between Foster and Mazzy (love the nickname), then you must be new to romance.  If he didn’t fall for Mazzy before, once she goes Mama Bear on the ex, I fell in love with her more than Foster.  A great summer read or any time of year for that matter.

    Synopsis:


    When Foster McInnis’ ex-wife flakes and he finds himself with full custody of his daughter, the nanny he hires brings a new complication — an attraction he can’t ignore, no matter how hard he tries.

    I love being on the ice and am grateful for my hockey career, but the off season is my favorite time of the year because it brings me my one true love — my daughter, Bowie Jane. Between my job and my ex-wife living across the country, the time I get to spend face-to-face with my kiddo is limited, though we make up for it with summers full of fun adventures. We’re thick as thieves and take full advantage of our time together, but the
    distance away from her is killing me.

    My fortunes change when my ex walks away and I find myself with full custody. But with the hockey season looming, I know I’m going to need help taking care of Bowie Jane.

    Enter Mary Elizabeth Archer — otherwise known as Mazzy. Highly recommended to me through the Titans. network, Mazzy crashes into our life like a hurricane. She’s unlike anyone I’ve ever met and to say I’m intrigued is an understatement. But no matter how attractive she is, no matter how I crave to know everything about her, I can’t go there.  It’s inappropriate. Just wrong, wrong, wrong, even though she might be the most right thing I’ve ever known.  Being the indescribable force she is, there is soon no corner of our lives that Mazzy hasn’t impacted in a positive way. And my desire for more with her becomes far stronger than my misguided idea that I could ever resist this woman.

    Our attraction burns hot and keeping our eyes, hands and mouths off one another gets harder by the minute. It doesn’t take long for me to know that I’m all in with Mazzy. She’s my end game and, lucky for me, winning is my specialty.

  • Royal by LeAnn Ashers

    Posted on by Karen Comment

    Who know loving a bad boy could be so good!  Apparently Naomi knew!  One look at Royal and she was hooked and vice versa.  As all Sinners have, Royal fell and fell hard for Naomi, her son was just an added bonus.  When things go sideways, Royal is there to save the day along with the rest of the MC.  Ms. Ashers really makes you want this kind of MC to be real.  For this kind of man to be real.  Royal is definitely a MC Book Boyfriend of your dreams.  

     

     

    As a single mother, I’ve always been fully devoted to my son. We didn’t have a lot, but we had a good life and I made sure he didn’t experience the struggles I did when I was his age. Love had never been something I thought I’d find, but meeting Royal changed everything. The moment our eyes connected, I knew he was it for me. He and his daughter became our world. We became a family; his MC became a part of our life. But people from our pasts had hatred and revenge on their agenda… What they didn’t realize, however, was that Royal would do anything to protect his own. Even if it meant destroying anyone in his path. Nobody threatened his family and lived to tell the story.

  • Out of the Red by Arell Rivers

    Posted on by Karen Comment

    The is the time of year that I start to really get my pleasure reading done. Nothing like knowing my son is out of school and knowing that the beach and/or pools is calling my name.  

    I have had Out of the Red for about seven (7) months now.  And, I am happy to announce that I have finished it!!!  This is a “new-to-me” author that I had the pleasure of meeting at this past TNTNYC Author event.  I know she probably thought I forgot about her, but I didn’t!!!  Just a lot of ARCs and BETA reads and life got in the way.  But that being said, I am so glad I met Arell, because if I didn’t I would have never had the pleasure to meet Brax and Sara.  

    Brax is the typical Rockstar that saw fame way too young to really appreciate his wealth and what to do with it.  Sara lived her life to the fullest but found comfort in numbers.  When the badboy rocker and straight-laced accountant come together, they clash in all the best ways possible.  She matures him, and he loosens her up.  A perfect pair if you ask me.  The summer is near and this book will make your hot days and nights even hotter.  I cannot wait to read the rest of the Hunte Family Series.

    Rockstar Braxton Hunte is the type of chaos that makes your soul burn…

    Brax has been on tour for a decade, and some may say he swallows obstacles for fun. Well, maybe he does—he’s never encountered a riff he couldn’t handle, a treasure he couldn’t score, or a woman he couldn’t conquer. No one, especially not a buttoned-down rule-follower like the band’s new tour accountant, is going to change him.

    Accountant Sara Anderson is an unabashed stickler for the rules…

    Sara’s worked nine long years to make partner, and only one thing stands between her and her goal—Hunte. Now she’s going on their tour to whip the band into financial shape. So long as she gets them out of the red, the promotion will be hers. Those bad boys of rock will be tamed, no matter how yummy their lead singer is.

    When rebellion confronts discipline, fireworks explode.

    Passions collide, and lives are permanently altered, in this enemies-to-lovers, slow burn standalone romance set in the mid-1990s—when grunge ruled the airwaves and women partners were as uncommon as those new mobile phones.
