RELEASE BLITZ + REVIEW & GI’S FAV: Wild Wicked Obsession (The Hyde Series #4) by Layla Frost

WILD WICKED OBSESSION

Series: The Hyde Series #4

Author: Layla Frost

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: September 13th, 2022

 

Synopsis
 

“That’s my good girl…”

She was a good girl.

I wanted to make her my good girl.

Joss Lennon was shy. Sweeter than any baked good. Outta my league.

Her life was cupcakes, hand turkeys, and working too many hours to pay the mortgage her ex-fiance dumped on her. Mine was strip club drama, breaking hands, and working too many hours to fix the dumpster fire my cousin left me. I had no business sniffing around Joss. No business wondering about her pent-up wild. It would be selfish to drag her into my wicked.

That wasn’t gonna stop me.

‘Cause, truth be told, I’d been addicted to Joss since the first smile. I didn’t care how much time it took, I was making her mine and never letting go.

Except when it came to the pretty kindergarten teacher… I wasn’t the only one with a growing obsession.

Warning: This book is intended for mature audiences. Not necessarily emotionally mature but, like, at least over 18. While it can be read as a standalone, it is highly recommended you read the other books in the series.

5 ‘ Made For Me’ Stars

 

PER.FEC.TION!!! Yep, that’s right, Wild Wicked Obsession is pure contemporary romance PERFECTION!! Brilliant from start to finish, Lars and Joss are match so exquisitely made, that I can honestly say, is now one of my TOP OTP!!! 

Being a huge fan of the Hyde gang I knew I was going to love this one, but damn, Ms. Frost surpassed ALL my expectations, I was in Alpha male HEAVEN! Not only Lars stood out in my best book boyfriends’ list, but wow, Joss was up there in my fav heroines, with her strength, sass and spine of steel, perfect match indeed.

Masculine and feminine.

Hard and soft.

Outright strong and deceptively resilient.

Lars dominated the kiss. Owned it. 
Owned me.

My OTT Alpha lover heart truly was bursting with happiness with this man, his jealous, possessive, über protective, and OBSESSED streak was as sexy as the man himself. Some may say too OTT, I say hell yes, give me all that brand of romance! Just dark enough to leave me salivating for more. 

“Obsessed after one pretty smile.”

Some might say that was overprotective. Borderline codependent. Maybe even dysfunctional. 

I said it was sweet and romantic.

Hell yes, that’s my brand of hero and heroine right here!

And all that awesome and entertaining cast of characters from the Hyde/Sweets You Rock and company just kept me entertained, engaged, and wanting allllllllll their stories, that we don’t know yet, Layla Frost masterful story telling is THAT addictive. Sweet, romantic, steamy and with just the right amount of suspense – I did not see that coming, btw! – Sweet Wicked Obsession is now one of my TOP reads of 2022, and definitely my winner in contemporary/suspense romance so far! All the stars!!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Stripped raw. 

Flayed open. 

Exposed. 

Vulnerable. 

But safe. 

And loved.

About the Author

7792423

Layla Frost has always been a rebel. A true badass.

Growing up, Layla used to hide under her blanket with a flashlight to read the Sweet Valley High books she pilfered from her older sister. It wasn’t long before she was reading hidden Harlequins during class at school. This snowballed into pulling all-nighters after the promise of “just one more chapter”.

Her love of reading, especially the romance genre, took root early and has grown immeasurably.

In between reading and writing, Layla spends her free time rocking out(at concerts, on the couch, in the car… Anywhere is a stage if you get into it enough), watching TV(the nerdier the better!), and being a foodie. Though she lives in NY(the state, not the city), she’s an avid Red Sox fan.

RELEASE BLITZ + REVIEW: STRANGE AND UNUSUAL (Battle Crows MC #6) by Lani Lynn Vale

STRANGE AND UNUSUAL

Series: Battle Crows MC #6

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: August 23rd, 2022

Synopsis
 

 The moment he divorced his ex-wife, Jeremiah decided two things.

One, he would never, ever get into that kind of situation again—i.e., marriage.

Two, he would spend more time doing what he loved—baking, riding motorcycles, spending time with the Battle Crows MC, and getting some quiet time for just himself. Pretty much doing the things he enjoyed, that his ex-wife could no longer ruin.

And, months after his divorce was final, he’s held strong.

He hasn’t gotten entangled with a woman. He’s opened his own bakery. And he’s never been closer to his club.

It has to be why he allowed them to have a massive club party at his place, which became the cause of Gracelynn Barry entering his life.

If he’d known Gracie was going to be his employee, he definitely wouldn’t have slept with her.

Yet, there he is, in the middle of an interview, finding out not only was the woman he slept with the most viable applicant for a job he very much needed filled, but that she’d recently broken up with the man he loathed. The second reason he’d divorced his ex-wife. Erich. His ex-stepson.

To say life is simple for Jeremiah would be a joke of epic proportions.

It’s time for him to buckle up.

4  ‘I Want All Of You’ Stars

 

I’ll be d@mned!!! Strange and Unusual stole my heart, with its quirky, unconventional, and passionate ways! Gracie and Jeremiah are THE bomb!!!

After dozens and dozens of published books, and Ms. Vale still manages to surprise the hell out of me. This story had all the elements I adore in contemporary romance, delivered in the addictive LLV manner, and still felt refreshing and new, in so many ways. Specially these two main characters, both Gracelynn and Jeremiah are so unique and alike that I fell right in for them. Maybe because I identified myself so much in these two book nerds, that love quiet times?! I really don’t know why, but I was beyond hooked in their story, and that climax, oh boy, about wrecked me, because I did not see that coming.

I love a good age gap romance, and Strange and Unusual did it for me big time, the older Alpha, grouchy, protective, and oh so sexy just took it to another level. And that ending… *dreamy sigh* LOVED. IT!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

4.5 ‘My Duke’ Stars

My, oh my… Talk about rendering me speechless… What may I say, other than One Night With The Duke will NEVER be enough! Mind blowingly enrapturing, passionate and oh so utterly engaging, that I could not read it in all but one sitting!

Ms. Malpas’ first dip into one of my favourite genres, Historical Romance, was as massive success as her intense contemporary romances. I should not be surprised, given her writing is one of the most addictive I’ve had the pleasure of reading – or should I say, devouring – but the way that Eliza and her Duke stole my heart in a blink of an eye, is no joking matter.

He has my heart and I am terrified I will never get it back.

He means freedom. Happiness. Light.

Eliza Melrose, and her quick wit and take no prisoners manner, may have proved tough to live with in her time, but I delighted in every moment, every scheme her curiosity led her too, a woman after my own heart. And Duke Winters…*dreamy sigh* How could one resist this tantalising, mysterious, gorgeous and complicated man?! One simply can not I tell you! A true JEM kind of broken Alpha, with a capital A, Johnny Winters was the true ‘handsome devil’, but the more we know, and FALL, for him, the more his complexity and sexual magnetism captivate us. His unraveling, his intensity, just made him that more enticing, and by the end, wow, my heart didn’t stand a chance!

‘This won’t only be one night, Eliza,’ he says, his voice strong but rough. ‘Once I’ve had you, I will not give you up.’

Jodi Ellen Malpas’ outstanding debut in HR provided us not only my new HR addiction, but an incredible and epic world building, that transported us to that time and place. I could feel and see the whole of Belmore Square like I was one of its residents, and the richness and diversity of its characters, just spike my curiosity to no end, in such a way that even now after that marvellous ending, that made my heart soar, I’m already dying for the next Belmore Square tale! Completely and utterly addicted, I tell you!!! 

Write,’ he orders gently, pushing his lips into my neck, biting softly at my flesh. ‘And when you are finished, I will show you how the story ends.’

RELEASE BLITZ + REVIEW : THE SCANDAL (Single In Seattle #2) by Kristen Proby

THE SCANDAL

Series: Single In Seattle #2

Author: Kristen Proby

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: July 12th, 2022

 

Who knew that weddings in Vegas were the real deal? I certainly didn’t when I agreed to marry my co-worker while on a bender in Sin City. Now, I need a quick annulment, which means I need an attorney, STAT.

Honestly, with a name like Grayson Sterling, Esquire, I expected an old man in a three-piece suit. But the guy behind the desk is anything but stuffy and old. Tall and sexy with tattoos and striking blue eyes, I simply can’t take my eyes off him, and I have no intention of declining his offer of a date…and more. So much more!

The conversation between us is good, and the man should win awards for his bedroom escapades. I find myself trusting him in ways I never thought I would–until he breaks that trust.

Gray insists he can fix it.

He claims he loves me.

But I don’t know if we can survive this.

4.25 ‘Thank You For Being You’ Stars

 

I’ll be d@mned! What a way to start and what a way to meet! I loved Gray and Stella from the very first moment and to witness their insane and undeniable chemistry at works, it was exhilarating! 

Fight With Me is my favourite of the first gen Montgomery’s – Nate is my top best book boyfriend list all the way! – so to say that my expectations were high for this one is no joke. Well all my wishes were answered because Stella and Grayson’s story was as hot and powerful as her parent’s! Plus we got OTT Alpha daddy Nate, at his most intense best in this one,so double wow….!

The in depth view onto Gray’s family was such a pleasant surprise and I do hope it’s not the last of them that we’ll see, specially his awesome sisters – pretty please!!! 

I don’t know what is it about this world, or Ms. Proby’s writting, but I feel so at home with this Seattle gang, and its passionate and caring characters that I could read about them all day, every day. That’s how much I adore them, I just can never get enough <3 <3 <3 <3 

“Holy shit. I think I just met the man I’m supposed to be with.”

I“I couldn’t resist you,” he says quietly. “I can never resist you.”

REVIEW: REAPER (Dark in you #8) by Suzanne Wright

REAPER

Series: Dark In You #8

Author: Suzanne Wright

Genre: Paranormal Romance

Release Date: July 7th, 2022

 

Synopsis

Falling in love can be a nightmare…

Piper’s always been aware of Levi. He’s the kind of man who it’s impossible to ignore. With his broad, muscular frame and gunmetal grey gaze he makes a statement without saying a word. But it’s not until her psyche brushes his in an unguarded moment that they both realise: they are anchors.

It’s a shock. Neither Piper nor Levi are used to needing anyone, the crackling attraction between them is making both their demons crazy and to make matters worse, Piper’s narcissistic stepsister is Levi’s ex–and she’s not ok with the situation. The whole thing is like a bad dream–and Piper knows all about them since she’s a Nightmare, a demon with the ability to trap people in their worse memories forever.

Then an old terror appears from Levi’s past–a serial killer everyone had believed was dead. They are cold, ruthless and will stop at nothing to achieve their twisted ends. Time is running out–will Piper, used to putting everyone else first, learn to fight for what–and who– she wants?

4  ‘My Anchor. My Mate. My Everything’ Stars

 

HOT D@MN!!!! Suzanne Wright sure knows how to simultaneously surprise and enrapture us! Levi and Piper’s story was as steamy, sexy, funny, action and suspense packed, and addicting as it’s usual in her Dark In You series, my all time favourite PNR. I can’t get enough of these guys!!!

Piper being Levi’s anchor and mate sure was surprising, given she was a new character, but I loved that, just introduced some new freshness to the series and a new dynamic. I wished though that she was also new to Levi’s life, because her being his ex’s sister is one of my PERSONAL pet peeves, but well, if someone could make me love a book aside from that it’s Ms. Wright.

As usual, I DEVOURED this book in one sitting, it’s THAT addictive! Levi is of course, an alpha with capital L, and I adored how obsessed he was with Piper. Yes, I wish he had opened his eyes sooner and gotten with the program, lol, but hey, at least he realised in time all she was to him – His Everything.

Of course I got my fix of this gang, who I adore so much, they are the most kick@ss bunch of all time, so to say I’m dying for not only Teague and Larkin’s story, but also all these intriguing Ancients in Devil’s Cradle!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

My anchor. My mate. My everything.

ON ONE CONDITION

Author: K. Bromberg

Author: S.I.N. #2

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: June 28th, 2022

 

Synopsis

The requirement is ridiculous but simple. Spend two months in Cedar Falls and play the mayor’s games to ensure that The Retreat, Sharpe International’s newest resort, can open.

But I have a history with this small, Montana town. One I’d tried to forget but never could. Asher Wells. My Lavender Girl.

She’d had dreams and aspirations to leave Cedar Falls and make her mark on the world. So why is she still here, standing in front of me? And more importantly, why is she looking at me with hurt in her eyes when I was the one who‘d been forced to leave or else face the damning consequences of that night?

I have everything in life: money, success, an empire to run . . . everything except for one, very important thing. Her.

Fifteen years is a long time to wonder. . . what if. I’ll be damned if I leave town this time without her.

4  ‘My Lavender Girl’ Stars

 

WOW! K. Bromberg sure knows how to pull at my heartstrings! Asher and Ledger’s love story both surprised me and awed me in equal measures! A second chance romance never sounded sweeter or sexier!

This small town romance meets billionaire boyfriend meets second chance, first love reunion made once again these characters shine, and shine bright. These two really were superb together, their background was so achingly sweet and tender, that I kind of wished for more flashback memories when I’m usually not a flashback fan at all. The way they navigated toward one another so effortlessly just made me swoon at their insane chemistry.

You’re better than the memory of you ever was.

One of the things I adored the most about On One Condition was the fact that the pain and heartache from their past was not dragged away throughout the whole story, things were so beautifully brought up, and DISCUSSED – yes, like two adults, how refreshing is that?! – and moved forward to acknowledge their fated connection, how I LOVED THAT!!!

As always even with one tale as deceivingly simple as these two seemed, the author managed to create such emotionally charging moments that had me crying, with how powerful they were, that made me fall for the complex characters and even their families . Yep, that’s right, I’m madly in love with the Sharpe triplets, and counting down the days to see what’s on the cards for Ford!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

“I think you’re a lot of people, Asher Wells,” he says softly. “I’m pretty sure I like all of them.”

RELEASE BLITZ + REVIEW: NOT A ROLE MODEL (Battle Crows MC #4) by Lani Lynn Vale

NOT A ROLE MODEL

Series: Battle Crows MC #4

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: May 31st, 2022

 

Synopsis
 

 You better watch out for people that bounce back from everything that’s meant to destroy them.

Those were the words that Coreline King learned to live by when it came to dealing with Tide ‘Rook’ Crow, member of the Battle Crows MC, general surgeon, and all-around jerk who lived to make her life a living hell.

It all started in high school when he stopped seeing her as a random girl and started to see her as his rival.

Together, they became ‘frenemies.’ I.e.—a person with whom one is friendly, despite a fundamental dislike or rivalry.

At least, it started out like that.

Everyone always says there’s a fine line between love and hate. And at first, Tide and Coreline don’t realize how very true that is.

Not until Tide gets hurt defending Coreline’s honor, and Coreline has to fix him because she feels like she owes him.

But one night of bad choices leads to a very big ‘oops’ that will either haunt them for the next eighteen years or bring them together as tight as they ever could be.

3.75  ‘You’re Finally Mine’ Stars

 

Oh boy, Not a Role Model INDEED! Talk about cat and mouse, these two can’t be in the same space without going at each other, but we all know what happens to two opposites… LOL

I love a good enemies to lovers, so Coraline and Tide’s story had me from the get go, but these two, specially Tide as the instigator, they went at it all the freaking time! It was like a permanent itch when it came to one another, that myself, as a sucker for banter soaked up every moment!

I’d been feeling. 

And we all knew what feeling did—it made you stupid.

 

Enemies for more than twenty years, to say that ‘attack’ is their default moment, is an understatement, and I was there for it, really, I just wish that all the ‘going at each other’s throats had an equally amount of vulnerable moments – particularly when it came to Tide’s @ssholery, lol – to counterbalance more the shift in their relationship. Yep, I got Coraline’s jabs because Tide sure pissed me off more than one 😉 Another instance that I wished different was Coraline’s sexu@l experience – or lack there of – that considering her age, independence and strength, didn’t match at all with her ‘persona’, so it felt like somehow she’s been ‘pining’ for her bully all along. It’s just my personal preference and take on it, and it doesn’t matter much to the overall story, so just a blip in the absolutely kick@ss romance of these two.

Ms. Vale did it yet again, and she had me enraptured from the first page, in such a way that I couldn’t stop until I finished the whole thing. That’s right, one seat reading, more than justified by this new Crow’s ‘fall’, with plenty of humour, steam and overall bad@assery! And, omg, LLV is killing me with all this Bram and Dorca’s teasing! Already counting down the day for the next Battle Crow’s story!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 

“I will love you until I can’t fuckin’ breathe anymore.

I’ll love you when you hate me. I’ll love you when you don’t. I’ll love you until the goddamn stars fall from the sky. And I won’t ever stop.

5 ‘With You, I’m Home’ Stars

Stunningly magical! Lighthouse Way is the proof of not only Ms. Proby’s genius contemporary romance writing, but also the addictive and extraordinary enchantment of small town romance! I loved, loved, LOVED everything about this book, from it’s intriguing and relatable characters, the magic of the Huckleberry Bay setting, the hint of supernatural, yep, it all hit the right spot of this romance lover here!

Luna – can we take a second to gush about KP’s talent for names and their meanings?!Wow! – and Wolfe were the perfect couple to not only introduce us to this world, and this community, but this brand new series, because not only was their story unique, intriguing and so soul warming, it gave us the change to meet every one of this small town character’s that evidently have a life of their own, and I can’t wait to find out every single one of this pairings, specially the other two musketeers, Sarah (and Tanner) and June (and Apollo).

The captivating and irresistible setting, a couple that stole my heart, specially Luna that was truly a guiding light – pun intended – with her serene and loving nature, for this group, and Wolfe with all his caring and Alpha personality, gifting us with perfect coupling, and its romantic and incredibly sexy journey, this was a fresh, and other-wordly beginning of a hugely promising series, that I’m already begging for the next story! I want to live in Huckleberry Bay too!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

RATTLE SOME CAGES

Series: Battle Crows MC #3

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: April 19th, 2022

 

Synopsis
 

It’s not every day that you see a dead body at the beach. Or the woman of your dreams sitting next to that dead body.

Price Crow first saw Sabrina Proctor in the middle of a hurricane.

She’d been sitting next to her dead best friend, who’d passed away on the beach, with no way to get her back home, thanks to the world’s worst luck, and one hell of a storm.

So Price does what any decent person would do: he carries Sabrina’s dead best friend to their beach house and doesn’t leave her side until he’s forced to.

He had every intention of bridging that gap, of checking up on her and making sure she was okay, but life is funny and has a way of making a mockery of the best-laid plans.

Despite one hell of a connection, under the worst of circumstances, they go their separate ways. At least, he tries to. But he can’t stop thinking about her, and it becomes apparent, very fast, that he has a decision to make.

Choose Sabrina or live out the rest of his life making everyone else around him happy except for himself.

4.25  ‘I Need You’ Stars

 

Yep, another hit! And reason #2183796424856935 why Lani Lynn Vale will always be an ‘one click’, ‘must-read’ author, Rattle Some Cages took me into one he!l of a ride!

As much as I love her, she doesn’t need me. I need you, though.”

I knew going in this one would be a bruiser to my heart – I mean, who can stay dried eyed with an intro like that?! –  but I’ll be d@mned if Ms. Vale didn’t immediately compensate with some light humour, funny family interactions, and later on plenty of steamy romance. That’s right, we had it all, and then some, if we consider what LLV throws at poor Sabrina almost by the end. A full workout to my heart, I tell you, and I wouldn’t have it any other way, as it was as engaging and entertaining as always!

Over the last couple of days, I’d realized that she was mine. She would be mine forever. Or until I died. Because as far as I was concerned, she would live forever, happy, safe, and healthy.

 

And sucker that I am for this insta love/lust premise, the fact that Price was mesmerised by just one chance glance, had my hopeless romantic heart soaring! Undeniable connection and this brilliant family dynamic, I’m not only sold on this one, but all the family one, and the teasing about Bram and his wife is ki!ling me… <3 <3 <3 <3 

“I love you because you are you.”
Big biker you may be, but you wear your heart on your sleeve.”

LAST RESORT

Author: K. Bromberg

Author: S.I.N. #1

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: March 29th, 2022

 

Synopsis

I was never supposed to see him again. Him being the man wearing the perfectly tailored suit who oozed an intoxicating mixture of wealth, rebellion, and sex appeal.

One night.
No strings.
No names.
Great sex.

Still riding the high from last night, I walk in to meet my new client, and he’s wearing that same dangerous smirk that reeled me in hours ago.

Yes, I’m consulting for Callahan Sharpe. And yes, he’s thatCallahan Sharpe.

Billionaire heir apparent who abides by no rules, bucks convention, and is determined to complete one final project to honor his late father’s legacy before walking away from the family business for good. Luckily and unluckily for me, I’ve been tasked to go to the Virgin Islands to help accomplish his goal. Callahan has no problem breaking his company’s no fraternization rule, but not me. There’s too much at stake.

What could possibly go wrong when you’re forced to work—and live—side by side with a man you can’t resist?

5  ‘What’s In It For Me’ Stars

 

EXCEPTIONAL! K. Bromberg never seizes to amaze me, Last Resort is the literal proof of that. Sutton and Callahan’s story went far and beyond all my expectations: scorching HOT first meeting, deliciously naughty banter, complex,  and intense and so beautifully flawed characters, that capture our hearts from the very first page!

I devoured this baby not only once, but TWICE – once ebook and another audiobook -, and can attest that the audio, and its narrators do such a brilliant job with these two that it was even more enrapturing as the written version, it sucked me right in, and I never wanted to let go. Ms. Bromberg has such a gift for words, and Last Resort just shows that, with how much of HEART and SOUL it’s present in every scene. There aren’t enough words to express what a thrill it is to experience this first hand, one must read it to find out, believe me.

“We fight hard, but we love deeper.”

A interesting premise couple with a stunning back drop, that not only introduce us to an amazing trio of sexy and interesting brothers, but is also the perfect tease to have us begging for the next book, even though we have just been given this flawless HEA. Yep, true KB addiction right here! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

“There is no negotiating when it comes to us. Ever.”

 “Ever?” 

He presses a kiss to my lips. “Ever.”
