Love Me Like You Do by Erika Kelly (Hailey and Cole)



Love Me Like You Do by Erika Kelly is now live!



ABOUT THE BOOK

How did the hottest hockey player in the NHL wind up braiding hair and hosting tea parties?

Because someone was foolish enough to name him the co-guardian of their children. That's how.


Cole Montgomery's living his best life--until he gets a call from an attorney letting him know he's been entrusted with the care of two little girls. He can't imagine why anyone would think he was a good role model. He can't even keep a plant alive.


Lingerie designer Hailey Casselton grew up with a free-spirited mother. So, when she finds out she's the temporary co-guardian to two children, she's determined to give them the best Christmas they've ever had. Unfortunately, she has to live with the jerk from high school who ruined her senior year.

But she gets a glimpse of the man behind Cole's larger-than-life persona, and she likes what she sees. He might be used to living for himself, but he works hard to change his ways and meet the needs of these lost and scared girls. It doesn't take long for her to enter dangerous territory--falling for a guy who's never going to settle down.

Except...as much as Cole keeps saying he can't wait to get his freedom back...he can't deny these girls--and okay, even Hailey--have become the very best part of his life.

And he's not quite sure what to do about that.

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This book was absolutely awesome. I adored it so much. It was such an awesome story with characters I adored and scenes that made me laugh and a hero and heroine who gave me all the feels.

When I first saw this description of this book, I thought it was more a bullying in high school type of story and then later making up.  But it so wasn't. It's more of an insta love in high school type of romance and then years later them getting a second chance when they are made guardians of their best friends' children.

Cole and Hailey knew each other in high school. He had a HUGE crush on her. It was so bad that he had a hard time talking with her. She wasn't sure what she thought about him but because of what happened on their one date, she ended up having to leave town and not finish her senior year with her best friend. 

Now years later they are forced together when they found out their best friends have died and left them both their children. But both feel they are very bad choices as parents but hope to find family members that would be better fits for the two young girls. Meanwhile they both come to town to spend time with the kids and celebrate the holiday season. 

This is a second chance romance during the holiday season with two adorable little girls, age 6 and 3 who have lost their parents and are struggling to understand what happened. They bring Hailey and Cole together and remind them what is really important in life. 

Cole is very wealthy with a very famous father but the one thing he never had was a family and that is what he finds in this book with Hailey and the two little girls. Hailey has always yearned for family, security and a place to call her own. When she comes to town she finds love, friendship, family and a town that will make her finally feel like she belongs.

This was an absolutely awesome story and such a perfect read during the holidays. I loved how not only did the two girls, Hailey and Cole find a family but also Cole's dad found something he never had before.

Snowed In with the Player by Rebecca Jenshak (Teddy and Holly)

ABOUT THE BOOK

It was supposed to be a weekend of holiday cheer.

Just me and my twin sister, watching Christmas movies and baking cookies.

My brother was absolutely not supposed to show up with half the football team. Including Teddy. My brother's best friend and my secret crush.

I'm the shy sister. The one with her nose stuck in a book and quoting every word of Elf, not the one getting attention from guys like Teddy.

He's cool and smart and so handsome I could die. The only thing that could make things worse is if I got snowed in with him.
Alone.

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

 This is a novella length book with 18 chapters and an epilogue. It takes place with students at Valley U during Christmas break. It is told in Holly's POV and only the epilogue has Teddy's POV.

 It's a brothers' best friend romance and so it has a slight forbidden romance angle. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed getting to know a whole new set of characters that attend Valley U.

It stars one half of the twins, Holly whose twin sister is Stella and their older brother is Felix who is just 18 months older than them. They are both Freshmans in college and the story takes place during Christmas break. 

I would call this a prequel to this series where the first book stars Stella who likes Beau Ricci, who is the enemy of Valley U's football team and since Felix and his friends are on the football team it is why in the first book, Stella and Beau have to sneak around.

In this book Holly and Teddy get snowed in. They have known each other for several years as Teddy is Felix's best friend. Holly is crushing on him super bad but she doesn't know how he feels about her, until they get snowed in.

NOW ON SALE! AIDEN by Samantha Lind (Tori and Aiden)

ABOUT THE BOOK

It took just one look and I knew she was meant to be mine. 


Her body language told me she was onboard, but my job had her slamming on the brakes. She was convinced professional athletes had a puck bunny in every city, but that was far from the truth. 


I agreed to be her friend for now......but how do I make her see we'd be better as lovers than just friends?

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was a really hot and sexy romance and I absolutely loved it. If you are looking for a sexy and flirty romance then this the book for you. 

Based on the description of the book it sounds like it's a friends to lover's romance but it's so not. I would characterize it as insta lust/love within a sports romance between two people who have very high powered day jobs. 

In this book we meet Aiden a hockey player who is more of a family guy and one who is more into a relationship. He meets Tori one night after a game when she and her best friend are visiting Ryker (teammate from the first book in the series RYKER) after a game. He asks her out but she thinks he is a player/playboy but he isn't. He asks for a shot and she asks him if they can take things slow. And so begins their relationship.

Tori is a VP of Marketing for a record producer for bands. She works a lot and is very dedicated to her job, bands and her work team. When she meets Aiden she is very much into him but asks to take things slow to make sure he is not a player.

I loved how the author took us through them getting to know each other and we get to come a long on their dates. Aiden is a total hottie, and he falls pretty hard and fast for Tori. Tori falls just as hard for him and I loved watching them get to know each other and also have lots of sex.

Be warned there are LOTS of sex scenes. The author definitely knows how to write hot and sexy scenes. 

NOW ON SALE! FALLING FOR ROME by Gillian Archer (Rome and Sophia)


 🔥🔥ICYMI REVIEW BLAST🔥🔥

FALLING FOR ROME by Gillian Archer is available!

#1ClickHere: https://bit.ly/3CWcwKK

ABOUT THE BOOK

Hollywood’s hottest actor is off the market! Who’s the mystery woman that caught his eye…and his heart?

Rome: My brother’s whole world imploded this week, and the media coverage is relentless. My assistant has come up with the perfect plan to take the attention off him and put it on me. Who doesn’t love a love story? Now let’s see if what’s-her-name wants to make some money and industry connections. It’s a win-win.

Sophia: The whole world knows who the Grier brothers are. The sexy Hollywood actors are on every woman’s wish list—and if I’m honest, mine too. But then I met Roman Grier and totally embarrassed myself. At least I’ll never see him again.

Only now he’s pursuing me. Well, kinda. He is promising me the world. Literally. I’ve always wanted to be a screenwriter, and he’s got the connections to get me through the door—if I pretend to date him and lie to everyone. It’s only a few months, and it’s not like I’m going to fall for Roman Grier for real…



#readromance #needtoreaditnow #wildfiremarketingsolutions

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is the first book in a series about 3 brothers. Book 1 which is Falling for Rome came out in February and I really enjoyed reading it and I cannot wait for book 2 which will come out in November. It's a series about a Hollywood family with three very hot brothers (Nix, Rome and Kingston). 

Rome is the very together brother who is single. Kingston is a newly divorced single dad, and his ex is Ariana who is injured in a car accident. His 6-month baby daughter is Zoe. And the youngest brother is Phoenix/Nix who is the loose cannon brother who is addicted to drugs and a bit of a hot head. 

This book is about Rome.  He has come home from his latest movie set to help out his brother Kingston. Kingston was married for three years, and his ex-wife is in a terrible car accident, but the media is centered on King and his 6-month daughter. Rome has come home to help but is struggling with how to help his broken-hearted brother. Until....

He runs into dog walker, barista and would be Hollywood screen writer Sophia on the beach with his dog. The press catches photos of them and Rome gets the brilliant idea to fake date her to take the press pressure off of King and instead they can focus on Sophia and Rome's budding relationship.

This book is a fake date romance with a Hollywood celebrity, Rome and Sophia is his one tough cookie but total sweetheart, dog walker who he ends up convincing to be his fake girlfriend. With the press making her miserable she also ends up being Rome's new roomie. The two share a very unique attraction and what happens when they both decide to want more from each other.

I really enjoyed this story and I found it very unpredictable and that is because of Sophie. She has big dreams, and she plans to follow them. But at the same time, she struggles with how the world will see her and her accomplishments. I found that very realistic in that she wants to make her dreams happen but is she willing to pay the price with her connection to Rome.

A home run straight to the heart.

I had everything going for me. 

Drafted right out of college. Signed a multimillion dollar contract. Slated to become a hall of famer. 

All my prospects were looking up… Until a diagnosis caused me to ruin everything.

But even with her being all those things, I start to fall for her 

And hard.

This is book 2 in a series but easily stands alone. If you read the authors previous book, Worth Every Second, then you will remember Jen as the best friend to Selena. In this story Jen is paired with a new character I had not met before, Maddox.

Maddox is a baseball player who has had a really rough time.  He was a top baseball player when his mother got a Cancer diagnosis he spirals into drugs and after rehab and a massive game suspension he is then traded. He meets Jen when he comes to town to sign the contract and he has a very hot night with her.

When he starts in his new city, the team suggests that a girlfriend would help rehab his image, he decides that Jen would make an awesome fake girlfriend and so the fun begins for these two.

Jen and Maddox have this awesome and honest relationship that eventually turns into more and this is their story how they navigate this new set of feelings they have for each other.

This was mostly a really fun read. It's not light reading as there are some serious subjects that the two characters have to confront throughout the story. What I liked is that there is no ex-drama or romantic drama but rather I found that it read more like real life from Maddox's struggle with addiction to his mothers battle with Cancer and something that happens to Jen. None of these are easy fixes and I enjoyed seeing the characters confront those issues and become stronger together than alone.

NOW ON SALE! Play Fake by Maggie Rawdon


ABOUT THE BOOK

She might not like me, but she wants me.

I'm used to being worshipped like a football god.

Everyone on campus loves me, except her.

Which is why when her ex breaks her heart and her friends plot revenge, I volunteer to be her fake boyfriend.

She hates the plan, almost as much as she hates me. We can barely speak without tearing each other to shreds.

But sometimes when we fight, she looks at me like she might not hate all of me.

Any advantage on the field is a good one, right?

But then she asks me for a favor I don’t know if I can deliver on.

And I make a confession that could have this whole game falling apart

This is a brand-new author and color me impressed that it's her debut. For me this was a mixed review as there were things I loved and things I didn't. But I really enjoyed the authors writing style and I could not put this book down.

This is a hate to love romance at least on Mac's side, and insta love/lust from Waylon's side. These two know each other thru their friend group. They are in college, and he is a football player with lots of female fans who pretty much throw themselves at him. 

He is totally into Mac from the first time he meets her. She is not available then and so when girls throw themselves at him he takes advantage of that and I was totally good with that. 

However when she is finally single, he wants her very badly and claims he doesn't have sex with anyone else then but what he does do is have them sit on his lap, he kisses them very hotly and they flirt and offer him lots of action. All this right infront of Mac, and not just once, over and over again. And the girls are shared so one night its him and the next a friend of his, and so on. It was a huge turnoff for me even if he doesn't ever have sex with them, seeing this in front of Mac over and over again , made me very uncomfortable reading this.

But aside from that he never gives up on Mac. He wants her badly and he is there for her no matter what. I will say he has extremely bad judgement and he and Mac are terrible at communication, but he wants her badly and pretty much will do anything for her because is into her that much and well that was what I loved about this book.

To some degree I felt the characters were very immature. They ran away a lot from each other and used jealousy a lot and played lots of games with each other. At times it felt very high school and not seniors in college. 

That said I could not stop reading this book. I really could not wait to find out what they did next. The author did a great job creating characters that frustrated me but also that I really liked and I wanted to see them get their happily ever after.
