ABOUT THE BOOK 

I'm the new guy on the team, and I'm struggling to earn my teammates' respect and forgiveness for the dirt I've slung at the Sockeyes in the past.

I played my entire life with my twin brother by my side, even in the pro's. Now I've been traded to the Sockeyes, and my brother has been selected in the expansion draft by the Portland Icehawks.

I'm facing the unthinkable, competing against my brother in a game where only one of us emerges the ultimate winner. And that's not my only problem. I've developed a huge crush on one of my teammate's sisters, and he's not taking kindly to my interest in her, especially since he and I have butted heads in the past.

She's not interested in me, but I'm not able to walk away. There's something special about her, and I have to find a way to convince her that there's also something special about me, even if her brother hates my guts.

This is a story about two people who have just joined the Sockeyes Hockey Team in Seattle and actually have a lot in common when they first meet. They start out not liking each other and then things get even more complicated.

Banks Slater has a pretty bad rep in the hockey world and it's his first time playing on a different team from his twin brother. He is also on a new team that is not his biggest fan. So, he will have to work hard to fit in and get along with his new teammates.

Jesse Wilder is a female hockey player and has medals and trophies to reflect, plus she comes from a family of hockey players (Jason Wilder is her brother).  When she joins the Sockeye Junior Hockey Youth League, she has a lot to prove as she is working with a bunch of men who don't think she should be there. 

One aspect I loved about this story is we get to see Marina again. I read her book (Shot on Goal) a few years back and I totally loved her. I was so glad to see her in this book and how she welcomes Jesse to the team. 

On the other hand, Geneva in this story who I liked when I read her book, Blocked, does something to Jessie and I really hated what she did. From that scene I hated her. I understand it was done for plot purposes but I thought it was totally uncool to do to another woman and was very disrespectful. Very mean girl in my opinion. 

Jesse and Banks were so cute together. From their first kiss when she comes up with a prank on her brother, I fell hard for these two.

Strayed by A.M. Wilson (Bree and Corjan)



Strayed by A. M. Wilson is now live!

  

ABOUT THE BOOK

Ten years ago I left my marriage and the love of my life.

On paper my husband checked the boxes.
1. Devastatingly handsome
2. Wild and carefree
3. And a skilled lover... if you know what I mean

But Corjan Powell was a bad husband.

I knew we both deserved more and were too young to be saddled with a lifetime of resentment and regret. After a year of confrontations and no change, I didn't even give him the chance to refuse divorce papers. One disastrous fight too far, I wrote him a note and I left.

"But Bree, what happened over those ten years?" you ask.

Resentment.
And regrets.

Until one random Sunday afternoon, I collide with someone in a crowded airport and look up into Corjan's familiar intense blue eyes.

I'm scared of my own reaction. The racing heart, the sweaty palms, the shock telling me I'm not over him. I do the only rational thing and escape as fast as I can onto my connecting flight.

The problem? I accidentally grab his cell phone from the floor and leave mine behind.

Now we're a thousand miles apart and he has my entire life in his hands, and I have his in mine.

And we're about to find out if there's love left between us or if we strayed too far after all this time.

***STRAYED is the second book of the Powell siblings but can be read as a total and complete standalone. No cheating. No ow/om drama. Read the second to youngest Powell brother as he turns up the charm in his fight to get back the woman he's loved all along.

 This is book 2 in series but easily stands alone. In this book we get to know estranged marriage couple Corjan and Bree. They fell in love in high school, married and then she strayed away, leaving him after he would not grow up and get a job or help her around the house.

Now ten years later at age 33 they run into each other at an airport and by accident switch cell phones. So starts a very fun set of phone text messages and eventually Bree comes home to get her phone from Corjan.

Corjan has never blamed her for leaving. He actually is thankful because it's what got him to grow up and get serious about getting a job and learning to adult. But he still loves and wants her back.

Can he win her heart? Can his family forgive her for the way she left? And will they sign the divorce papers or get a second chance? 

I am not spoiling any of it.

This was a wonderful second chance romance between two people who still love each other but who really had to grow up first to learn how precious love really is. I loved all the family members that help them along the way from Bree's cousin Janie and her philosophy of "do you first". Jack and Lee and Jude and the whole Powell family were just awesome, and I cannot wait to read more about them.



The Hollywood Marriage Bargain - Hollywood Bachelors #1 - by Lila Monroe (Jackson and Tess)





BLURB

Fake date. Real trouble. Fall for a new trope-tactic, fake dating rom-com read from USA Today bestselling author, Lila Monroe! Perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey, Ali Hazelwood, and Emily Henry.

Jackson Kane is a hot Hollywood A-lister… and the first guy I ever loved. We spent a magical summer together ten years ago, but now he’s off dazzling on the red carpet, and I’m… up to my elbows in cranky plumbing, renovating my grandparents’ old B&B on Cape Cod. He’s the last man I’d expect to run into with a wet T-shirt and a Minions bra (don’t ask) — until it turns out, he’s shooting his latest movie right here in Blackberry Cove.

And he wants me back.

There’s no way I’m getting swept up in his celebrity circus… until my bitchy cousin lays claim to our family heirloom engagement ring, and I need a fake boyfriend to beat her game. A handsome charmer with perfect acting chops… Now where can I find one of those…?

It’s supposed to be just for show, but Jackson is determined to show me our chemistry is just as strong as ever. And boy, is he impossible to resist. But between movie shenanigans, stroppy starlets, and - oh yes - the hoards of paparazzi suddenly trailing our every move, this fake date is more real than I ever imagined.

Can we find a way to take a second chance at first love? Find out in the hot & hilarious new romantic comedy from Lila Monroe!

This was a really fun second chance romance that is the start of a brand-new series. In it we get to know Jackson who is a big Hollywood actor as he brings his movie production to the small town of Blackberry Cove. The town holds some wonderful memories for Jackson because its where he fell in love with his summer girlfriend from ten years before, Tessa and it just so happens that she is now living in the town with her grandfather while she renovates the family inn.

Tessa is not looking forward to the movie production and Jackson. In fact, she keeps turning him down for dinners. That is until she finds her grandma's ring and has to compete with her cousin for it and she declares that she is dating Jackson with marriage thoughts. Jackson agrees to help her out because he wants Tess to just let him get to know her and then there is this kiss...

This was a really fun story. It's pretty low on drama and no exes and no jealousy. But it does have a bit of insta lust/love and was a really fun and light read with a second chance storyline. 



NOW ON SALE! DR. PERFECT - Doctors #2 - by Louise Bay (Zach and Ellie)

 
ABOUT THE BOOK
A boss, his assistant, a snowstorm and just one bed. What could go wrong?   

They call him Dr. Perfect.

I call him Dr. Aloof, Dr. Arrogant, Dr. If-you're-going-to-fire-me-just-get-it-over-with.

 If I had other options, I'd quit, but I need this job. Badly. So I jump at the chance to impress him by hand-delivering some important documents.

 Yes, he's staying on a remote Scottish Island, but I've got it covered...

 Until the ferry back is cancelled, there are no hotels on the island and there's a storm headed our way.

 So I'm snowed in with my impossibly handsome boss, who barely knows my name, in a tiny one-bedroom cottage in the middle of nowhere.

 But unlike the snow outside, his icy stare is beginning to melt and we don't need a generator to keep it warm inside.

This series is about the Cove family of mostly doctors except for Nathan who dropped out of law school. This is Zach Cove's story, and he has four brothers and a cousin, two who are married and had stories in other books.

Nathan is married to Madison (Private Player)
Jacob is married to Sutton (Dr Off Limits)
Vincent's book is coming in Dr CEO - he is a cousin but is treated like a brother and is American.
Beau is a brother (no book yet)
Dax is the baby brother (no book yet)

In this book we learn a lot about Zach, he is called Dr Perfect by his family and brothers because they really think he is perfect. But as you know no one is perfect and his big imperfection is that he hates being a doctor. He dreams of being a mystery writer instead.

When Zach decides to leave his hospital he makes up a story about going into private practice. It's a way to make it look like he is running a medical office but with no patients it gives him lots of time to write his book. The only issue is that he hired Ellie as his office manager..

Ellie needs to keep her job for 19 months. She dreams of being a cook and wants to go to school to make her dream happen. So, she strives to be the best assistant to Zach while he tries to avoid patients and write his book.

This book was a lot of fun. I LOVE the Cove brothers and their parents, and in this story, we see how supportive they are of each other especially Nathan. 

In addition, I loved how frustrated Ellie gets at getting paid to do well NOTHING. I totally giggled at how perplexed she gets with Zach. 

Things get intense between these two when Ellie has to bring a document to Zach in Scotland and then ferry schedules and a winter storm makes them spend a lot of time together. This time together was really something that benefitted both characters and showed them they have to follow their career dreams.

Irresistibly Perfect by J. Saman (Fallon and Greyson)

From USA Today bestselling author J. Saman comes a steamy brother's best friend, friends-to-lovers, forced proximity romance about a hot rock star and the irresistible woman he's always wanted but could never have.

         ABOUT THE BOOK

When I was fourteen, I fell in love with the girl next door.


My best friend’s sister was off-limits to me in every way.

I was the bad boy, and she was the good girl. I was the kid with big rock star dreams, and she was the princess with her entire life planned out for her.


We were impossible from the start. Even when she’d randomly show up at my concerts and we’d spend a night or two lost in each other it would always end in goodbye.

Years later she’s back in our city.


Only now, she’s engaged to the last guy I’d ever want to see her with. So I do something crazy. I never expect to hear from her again until one night she takes me by surprise.

A drunken phone call and suddenly I’m racing through the airport to catch her plane before she takes off for Europe.

Now I’ve got one week to change both our lives.


My plan? Make her fall in love with me as we get lost in Italy and France. Her plan? Discover the woman she wants to be instead of the perfect one she’s always had to be.


I’d love to tell you that from here on out it’s all love and sex, but nothing has ever been easy for us, and this is no exception.

Fallon Lark has always been mine. Now I just have to prove it to her…

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

This is a second chance best friends to lovers romance. In this book we get to know rocker Greyson and the woman he loves, Fallon.

Fallon and Grey grew up as next-door neighbors and had a secret friendship. They were both wealthy, but his dad was abusive, and Fallon's family treated her like a princess and planned every detail of her life and Grey was not someone they wanted for Fallon. She had a twin brother, and he was Greyson's best friend until there is a tragic accident.

In this book Fallon is on a journey of self-discovery. She is free of her parents' rules and obligations for the first time ever. She wants to find out who she really is. Grey has loved Fallon for years and he comes along to help her see that the woman he loves is really awesome. I loved how in touch he was with his feelings for Fallon and how well he expresses those feelings and is always there for her no matter what.

This was a wonderful story, and I adored these two. They both are great characters with great hearts and who really see each other. I loved that Fallon grew to be so strong and stopped being manipulated and she learned to fight for herself and the life she wants to lead. I loved that Grey knew how to stand back and watch and support her while letting her find her inner strength.
