Offside with #55 by Piper Rayne (Kane and Jana)

ABOUT THE BOOK

The last thing any professional hockey player wants is to be the old man in the game. The guy who doesn't know when it's time to retire. Still, I can't bear the thought of leaving the game.

This past year I've reflected on all my regrets, and I told myself that once I retire it'll be the time to settle down and start a family. But this is where it gets tricky.

I think I've found her—my Mrs. Although she'll deny our connection to anyone who asks. We've been sleeping together casually and since I'm still playing hockey, I've let her get what she wants—me—whenever she wants.

After being told my career as a player is over, the owner of Florida Fury grants me a shot to stay in the game. A coaching position I didn't know I wanted until it was offered. The catch? He's also passing the family business down to his daughter.

Who's his daughter?

The woman who's been in and out of my bed for the past year. Which means the woman I intend to make my wife is now my new boss.

This is the last book in the series and its not my favorite well because my favorite is Warner but its a very close runner up as my favorite. 

Offside is a stand alone story but is much better if you read the entire series in order. This story is a second chance for Kane and Jana and its a romance between a boss and the coach in a role reversal as Jana is the boss and Kane is the coach. Its also a romance with a former fling. 

If you have been reading this series you know that Jana's father owned the team and he has decided to retire and offered Kane the opportunity to coach the team if he retires as a player. And as he is retiring he has given the team to Jana and she is the new team owner. As a team owner, Jana cannot be flinging with Kane any longer and so the two are no longer together in this story.

Jana and Kane were a big surprise in this book. I did not always understand their motivation for some of the views they took in this book but I did end up loving them together.

Jana does not want marriage, kids or a relationship. She was very happy flinging with Kane. But Kane has always seen how awesome Jana is and wanted something more. While he has no desire for kids he does want marriage and a relationship. 

This is very much a war between Kane and Jana. He wants more and she wants less and then there are issues because she is now his boss and he is her new coach. It makes their fling something that cannot continue but it also causes a lot of strife in their work relationship and creating a stable team as they make a run for the Cup. 

Can they win it? Will Jana fall for Kane and give him his real shot with her? Will Kane wear Jana down and convince her that he is relationship material? And will Jana's dad let her run the team her way? Well you will have to read this story to find out. It was a lot of fun and an awesome way to end the series.

This is a brand new series by the author but is loosely connected to her previous Southern  series. In it we get the story of Harlow Barnes who is the daughter of Casey and Olivia from Southern Comfort and Quinn's sister from Southern Heat and Reed's sister from Southern Sunshine. 

This is a stand alone story but there is also a prequel that is free if you want to see how Travis and Harlow meet and a bit of their college romance in Mine to Kiss.

As the story begins we catch up with Harlow as she is a Veterinarian and works on her families ranch and has her own clinic. She gets a wedding invite to her ex, Travis, and the love of her life's wedding. The two dated for two years in college and had an extremely bad breakup around graduation. They have not seen or talked to each other since then. But she had promised him she would be there for his wedding and so she decides to attend the wedding.

Travis is getting married but everything is going wrong and then he sees Harlow and well you will have to read this story to see what happens next.

There is no cheating in this story and its a story about second chances, soulmates, family, friendship, love and growing up and learning to compromise in the name of love. 

It introduces Travis' family and he has three sisters who run a wedding venue and planning business and thats who this series is centered on. You will meet Travis' older sister Shelby, and younger sisters, Clarabella and Presley and Luke and Bennett who will all have books in the series. I fell hard for Travis' family and his sisters and am so excited to read their stories.

Not a Role Model - Battle Crows MC, Book 4 - by Lani Lynn Vale (Tide & Coreline)

 

ABOUT THE BOOK

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.

Tide and Coraline aka Elvis are the starring couple in this book. They have known each other as kids and teens and even through college and they have always hated each other. 

In this story they are now all grown up and still hate each other but as neighbors they start seeing a lot of each other around town and when Coraline ends up needing help Tide is there for her along with his brothers.

This story was absolutely wonderful. I think its actually the authors most romantic story that I have read and I have read a lot of her series and books, Seriously Tide and Coraline were amazing apart hating each other but also loving each other.

This story was really perfect. I loved watching Tide and Coraline torture each other and fight and eventually when they share their first kiss it was amazing. We also get to see a little bit of Bram and Dorcas in this book and I cannot wait for their book.

The author did a wonderful job with this bully storyline and I loved that Tide and Coraline are both equal in how they harass each other and I loved how well they know each other as well. And when I got to the romance side, I just adored those scenes so much. So much!

ABOUT THE BOOK

Grumpy, angry, a curmudgeon…

Who uses the word ‘curmudgeon’ anymore?

Those are the words used to describe my new boss and some other less than flattering words. The new boss who doesn’t even know I’ve been hired to invade his private sanctum and run the show. I’m the new cook for Tobias Reynolds, a Montana Cowboy with a surly attitude. I shouldn’t work for him given my background, but my options are limited and it’s a temporary arrangement.

A violent man left me scars, mostly invisible ones, but they promise me that Tobias will never lay a hand on me. One look at my new boss and I know it’s not his anger I fear, but the raging desire for his touch coursing through me.

They were wrong about the boss. Tobias can’t seem to keep his hands off me and I don’t want him to stop.

Beautiful, broken, mine…

That’s what I see when I look at Ava. From the first second, I saw her, it felt like I’d been tackled to the ground my chest ached so intensely. I want to keep her, but this is just a temporary stop for her. She’s running from someone. Given the black eye, she’s sporting, I’m guessing it’s someone who needs to be taught a lesson.

I’ve spent my time in the spotlight, but now I’ve gone back to my roots, working my family’s ranch. Some say I’m like a grizzly bear with a thorn in his paw, but I just want to work and go home to a good homecooked meal and some peace and quiet which has been hard to come by.

It’s not until she shows up that I realize how much more I want out of life. I’ll slay all her dragons, destroy her fears, and do all I can to get her to stay.

TOUR HOSTED BY HEA PR More

This is book two in the series and takes place 6 years after Lara. It can easily stand alone except that there is a side plot with some drama and its related to some stuff from the first book. I do think this book easily stands alone though. 

This is Tobias' story and he is an ex football player who is a bit on the grumpy and grouchy side because he lives alone in a small town and runs his ranch by himself. His sister Lara lives with her husband and family in Chicago and we get to see Lara and Landon in this story as well. It was great to see how they are doing no that they have been married awhile and have a bunch of kids.

The story begins around Christmas and also continues into the new year . It has a bit of insta-love/lust when Tobias sees Ava for the first time. Ava is also a young woman who is single and comes from a family where she has been abused. So I just want to warn you that incase its a sensitive subject. Its more after the fact than during and is the reason that she takes off and ends up on Tobias ranch during the holidays. How she gets there is kinda cool.

This was a hot story and I loved how hard Tobias falls for Ava and how she falls for him as well. There is a little bit of drama with Ava's family and Tobias' stalker. He has a stalker from his football playing days and he also has some disgruntled employees. So they all add to the story and add some drama to this romance.

I have really enjoyed the authors writing and characters. She is a new author for me and I had never read her before Lara and Tobias' books but I really enjoyed both stories.
