Review by Kelly:

Boyfriend Bargain by Ilsa Madden-Mills

Ilsa does it again with this college sports romance. So many feels from this story. We get beautifully flawed characters with almost instant heat and sparks, pasts that haunt each step they take, and fear of feeling too much. 

Z is in his last year of college and is ready to take the NHL by storm. He comes across as the hot, cocky, bad boy Ice King to everyone he meets. Inside, he’s a mess. The past has wrapped itself around his throat and the noose tightens more every day. He’s not sure if he’s going to make it. Can he keep the pressures at bay or will he fall apart and lose it all?

Sugar wasn’t blessed with a perfect family growing up. She struggled every day. She’s in her last year at HSU and what she wants more than anything is to get into Vandy. Law school was always the plan but she’s been rejected and told maybe in the future. She needs a way to get in. To show those who have judged her and looked down upon her that she’s made it. She’s more than they ever could have dreamed she would be. 

She needs him. He could be her ticket to making her dreams come true. He needs her, to keep others at bay so he can focus on his future. They don’t realize that their fake plan will become more than either ever imagined. She understands what he needs and she’s does it. He gets her quirks and supports her like no one else has. Together they step into murky waters and get wrapped up in each other. 

Truths of the past come to light and a downward spiral begins. Old hurts become new and trust doesn’t extend very far. Happiness is driven away and heartache surrounds them both. A decision to fight for one another, to extend  understanding to ghosts of the past and to truly open their hearts is the only way they will survive this heartache. 

I can’t say enough about Ilsa and her understanding of creating characters that are perfectly flawed together. She has a fantastic capability of creating a story that draws us in so much that we can feel the ups and downs and the road that the characters must travel. It’s wonderful and it’s a phenomenal ride!

Excerpt:

“We should kiss, just get it out of the way and move on," I say, sure of the crazy idea as each second passes. There’s a hitch in Z’s breath, and his eyes go straight to my lips. “Works for me.” “But just one. None of that fancy tongue work.” “Afraid of falling in love with me?” He grins. Well. My eyes take in the broad shoulders and the dragon tattoo on his muscled chest. He’s definitely my type: pure, grade A male hotness—exactly what I don’t need. “I won't fall in love.” Another grin. “Liar.”

COVER REVEAL ~ ALL GROWN UP by Vi Keeland

Release date July 8^th, 2019

A Standalone Contemporary Romance

#1 New York Times Bestselling Author Vi Keeland

SYNOPSIS:

When I first encountered Ford Donovan, I had no idea who he was…well, other than the obvious. Young, gorgeous, successful, smart. Did I mention young? If I did, it bears repeating. Ford Donovan was too young for me. Let’s back up to how it all started. My best friend decided I needed to start dating again. So, without my knowledge, she set up a profile for me on a popular dating site—one that invited men ages twenty-one to twenty-seven to apply for a date. Those nicknamed Cunnilingus King were told they’d go straight to the top for consideration. The profile wasn’t supposed to go live. Another point that bears repeating—it wasn’t supposed to. Nevertheless, that’s how I met Ford, and we started messaging. He made me laugh; yet I was adamant that because of his age, we could only be friends. But after weeks of wearing me down, I finally agreed to one date only—my first after twenty years of being with my high school sweetheart. I knew it couldn’t last, but I was curious about him. Though, you know what they say…curiosity kills the cat. My legs wobbled walking into the restaurant. Ford was seated at the bar. When he turned around, he took my breath away. His sexy smile nearly melted my panties. But…he looked so familiar. As I got closer I realized why. He was the son of the neighbor at our family’s summer home. The boy next door. Only now…he was all man. I hadn’t seen him in years. I left the restaurant and planned to put the entire crazy thing behind me. Which I did. Until summer came. And guess who decided to use his family’s summer home this year?

Officer Levi Crawford, Seattle PD.

For almost twenty years, Levi has been consumed by the law. He eats, sleeps, and breathes work. Not just because he’s a workaholic, but because he loves it. Sure, he doesn’t have time for a woman and barely sees the rest of his family, but it’s a trade he’s always been happy to make.

Until Starla.

About Kristen:

Kristen was born and raised in a small resort town in her beloved Montana. In her mid-twenties, she decided to stretch her wings and move to the Pacific Northwest, where she made her home for more than a dozen years.

During that time, Kristen wrote many romance novels and joined organizations such as RWA and other small writing groups. She spent countless hours in workshops, and more mornings than she can count up before the dawn so she could write before going to work. She submitted many manuscripts to agents and editors alike, but was always told no. In the summer of 2012, the self-publishing scene was new and thriving, and Kristen had one goal: to publish just one book. It was something she longed to cross off of her bucket list.

Not only did she publish one book, she’s since published close to thirty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self publish, best known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, and is also proud to work with William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins, with the Fusion Series.

Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in her hometown of Whitefish, Montana with their two pugs and two cats.

Blog Tour: PRETTY RECKLESS by L.J. Shen

Pretty Reckless, an all-new standalone high school, bully romance from USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen, is available now!

We were supposed to be best friends

But turned out to be worst enemies…

Penn

They say revenge is a dish best served cold.

I’d had four years to stew on what Daria Followhill did to me, and now my heart is completely iced.

I took her first kiss.

She took the only thing I loved.

I was poor.

She was rich.

The good thing about circumstances? They can change. Fast.

Now, I’m her parents’ latest shiny project.

Her housemate. Her tormentor. The captain of the rival football team she hates so much.

Yeah, baby girl, say it—I’m your foster brother.

There’s a price to pay for ruining the only good thing in my life, and she’s about to shell out some serious tears.

Daria Followhill thinks she is THE queen. I’m about to prove to her that she’s nothing but a spoiled princess.

Daria

Everyone loves a good-old, unapologetic punk.

But being a bitch? Oh, you get slammed for every snarky comment, cynical eye roll, and foot you put in your adversaries’ way.

The thing about stiletto heels is that they make a hell of a dent when you walk all over the people who try to hurt you.

In Penn Scully’s case, I pierced his heart until he bled out, then left it in a trash can on a bright summer day.

Four years ago, he asked me to save all of my firsts for him.

Now he lives across the hall, and there’s nothing I want more than to be his last everything.

His parting words when he gave me his heart were that nothing in this world is free.

Now? Now he is making me pay.

REVIEW:

L.J. Shen NEVER disappoints. I am in love with Penn Scully.   Daria is a force to reckon with.  She is pretty on the outside, the world thinks everything is perfect with the most popular girl in the school, comes from a family with money, wants for nothing, yet that is the furthest thing from the truth.  

Penn Scully comes from the other side of the tracks.  He doesn't have money, but he has a heart of gold and loves fiercely.  His upbringing hasn't been the best with a drug addicted mother, his mother's abusive boyfriend and his sister that goes missing.  When the truth is revealed about his sister's disappearance, there is only one person to blame.... Daria.

When Daria's mother offers their home to Penn to give him a chance at life, Daria's world is shaken to the core.  When two people who want to hate each other, end up falling for each other, I cheered.  I adore Daria and Penn.  They were supposed to hate each other, but their hearts wouldn't allow it. 

I devoured this book. With each turn of the page, I fell more in love with these characters.  Pretty Reckless will give you all the feels that you want in a romance book.  

EXCERPT:

“I don’t want you transferring into my school,” I hiss out. Melody would gladly file a transfer request, and Principal Prichard would salivate over the chance to snatch him up for our football team.

“That won’t be a problem. You guys suck so much ass, you have shit-breath.”

“Still smells better than poverty. You’re poor, right? Your sister was just bullshitting about being rich.”

When someone hits me with a stick, I run over them with a tank. I’m so mean to him I want to throw up. I hate this part of being me. The striking harder at all costs part.

“Just to make things clear.” I put the brush down, batting my lashes. “You’re not my step-sibling, foster brother, or a part of the family. You’re a stray dog. Last of the litter, most unlikely to be adopted, and a charity case.”

Penn takes a step toward me, and my heart is fighting its way out of my ribcage. The closer he gets, the more I realize that my heart might succeed. Penn’s eyes remind me of a snake’s. Mesmerizing, but inhuman altogether. They weren’t like that before.

His scent messes with my head. I want to reach out and caress his face. Kiss his wounds better. Beg for forgiveness. Curse him. Push him away. Cry on his shoulder for what we’ve done. For how it ended. For what we became afterwards, because I’m full of crap and he is totally empty.

We ruined ourselves the day of our first kiss.

Penn looks down at me. Time stops. It feels like the world is losing gravity, falling into a bottomless depth in space when he clasps my chin with his thumb and finger, lifting my head up. I can’t breathe. I’m not sure I want to, either. My towel drops to the floor with a thud, even though I secured it over my chest. I realize that he tugged at it intentionally. I’m naked. My body, my soul, my heart. All my walls are down. Somewhere in my head, a red alarm blasts and my inhibitions are getting armed, ready to fight back. I’m trying to decode his expression. He is amused, irritated, and…playful? The mixture of emotions doesn’t make any sense.

“Mess with me, Followhill, and I will ruin you.”

“Not if I ruin you first.”

REVIEW:

Where do I begin...  Rachel nails it every...single...time. Rachel writes mafia like no other. If you recently discovered this series, you can jump in with DEBASE and not feel lost at all.  Debase is book 1 in a new series, however it is also linked to the Eagle Elite Series.  

We all have been dying to know more about Andrei Petrov, or at least I know I have.  We were introduced to him in the Eagle Elite Series.  Andrei and Phoenix seem to have a lot more in common that we thought, both having monsters for fathers. 

Andrei battles the guilt of his childhood everyday. He was forced to take lives at a very early age. He was forced to watch things a young child should never see. Growing up with the father he had, was living in hell everyday.

Andrei is closed off, never opening up to anyone, always keeping them at all lengths.  Living this way is easier for him. Having people close to him causes too much pain.  Andrei has one goal, stop the human trafficking his father began. So when six thirty two arrives, his world seems to shift on its axis. Can one woman change Andrei make him want more form life?  Can one woman make him feel? Can she make him enjoy her gently touch? Or will Andrei keep her at arms length like he does everyone else?

What will happen when Andrei falls for the one person who he can't have? The DeLangs are traitors and must die. Will Andrei sacrifice everything for the girl he shouldn't love.

I slid my tongue into her mouth. I tasted, I took, I was greedy with each kiss. With blood on my hands, I held her. With death in my soul, I drank from her. With the devil in my heart, I coveted her. I wanted closer. More. My gloves felt too hot for my hands. My hands too big to contain the weeping leather as I pulled away from Alice and stared into her big blue eyes. “You don’t want this,” I whispered. She bit down on her swollen lip and reached for me, I stood still as her warm hands touched both of my cheeks. “Lie.” I let out a hiss of air at her touch. “Walk. Away.” “Kiss me again.” “I can’t do that.” I needed to stop doing that. “Can’t or won’t?” I told myself one more kiss, one more touch. I told myself it would be okay, that I was still in control. That I was above this. That no woman had ever owned me. No woman had ever taken everything. My chest heaved as I stared at her mouth, unable to move, completely rooted to the floor. Alice moved her hands to my jeans and slowly unbuttoned them. I didn’t stop her, I needed to fucking stop her, but it was like I’d drank this paralyzing poison from her lips and couldn’t function, could only watch her as my soul floated above my body, mocking my inaction, telling me that this would be the end of me. The very end. Letting her in. Keeping her there. I would give her everything. And then I would lose control. Lose my mind. Lose my heart. I would lose. So would she. “Alice…” My voice cracked. “I wish…” Her hands stilled on my jeans like she was ready to pull them down. “I can’t. I wish I could. I can’t.” How could she possibly understand? How could I explain the gut-wrenching fear of looking in the mirror and knowing that one choice kept me sane. One choice. And that was sex. He’d made that choice. I wouldn’t. I couldn’t. I couldn’t trust myself, couldn’t trust it wouldn’t happen to me too, and hurt someone like her. Someone so very… perfect. Without blinking, Alice gripped my jeans, indecision etched on every pretty part of her face. She was beautiful. So damn beautiful. I gripped her wrists with my hands and pulled them away from the very real temptation of getting completely naked and sinking into her, feeling her clench around me, her tight heat. Shit. I pulled her into my arms, and she rested her head on my shoulder. Just because I couldn’t let her touch me, couldn’t cross that line, didn’t mean I couldn’t make her happy, I would kill to watch her face in the throes of multiple orgasms. I quickly gripped her by the hips and put her up on the cold granite countertop. “Andrei what are you doing?” She looked down at me uncertainty in her blue eyes. I moved my hands to her ass and pulled down the black leggings she’d been wearing, all the way down to her ankles, right along with a pair of lacy underwear that were bright pink, and perfect. “Andrei?” “Yes?” “Seriously, what are you doing?” I gripped her knees with my hands and then spread them wide. “What’s it look like I’m doing?” I smirked. “I’m feasting.” Her eyes widened. Never underestimate a virgin with an extremely vivid imagination and heightened sexual appetite. I wasn’t a fucking monk. I would like to think I knew more than most men, because I’d seen it all, watched it, inadvertently studied it. If someone gave me a diagram of a woman, I could point out over twenty-two ways to get her off — with my tongue, a feather, my fingers, take your pick. “You don’t have to—” She let out a gasp, gripping the edge of the granite, turning her hands white. I chuckled darkly against her right thigh and bit. “I’m sorry, what was that? I don’t have to?” “I’ve never, nobody has ever… done. This.” “Tell me,” I asked gently before I dipped my tongue inside her and flicked. Her entire body jerked. “Tell me he never touched you like this, tell me nobody has ever touched you like this.” “Never,” she rasped. “You.” That word was like a gunshot going off in my soul. “Only you, Andrei.” “Me.” I flicked my tongue again, and gripped her by the ass, pulling her almost completely off the counter while I sat beneath her and sucked her off in the most primitive aggressive way I knew how. With every ounce of energy I had in my physical body. With my soul. I used every weapon in my arsenal.
