Release Day Blitz & Review…Boys of Lake Chapel: The Complete Series by Abby Millsaps

by Courtney

Boys of Lake Chapel: The Complete Series by Abby Millsaps is now live!

A complete enemies to lovers sports romance series from bestselling author Abby Millsaps. Includes Too Safe, Too Fast, Too Far, Too Sweet, the bonus novella Decker the Halls, and three brand new bonus scenes featuring Joey and her boys.

After years of living in survival mode, I’m finally hitting rewind on the story of my life. There’s nothing standing in the way of my bright future at Lake Chapel University.

Or so I thought.

Being ambushed by four devastatingly attractive football players wasn’t part of my plan. Ironically, they seem just as stupefied by me as I am of them.

Now Decker Crusade thinks I saw something I shouldn’t have, and he’s decided the only way to control the narrative is to control me. There’s nowhere to run, considering Decker and his boys live in a lakeside mansion that can only be accessed by boat.

Apparently, I live here now, too.

They think they can keep me on their isle indefinitely, but there’s something about me they’ve sorely underestimated: my will to finally live.

This box set includes over 1,200 pages of binge-worthy romance that concludes with an epic HEA for Joey and her boys. The Boys of Lake Chapel Box Set includes the following titles:
*Too Safe
*Too Fast
*Too Far
*Too Sweet
*Decker the Halls
*Plus three brand new bonus scenes

Sometimes being late to the party isn’t so bad. And in the case, being late to read this series paid off because I would’ve cried having to wait for each book to release.
And I got to read the novella plus a few extras with this – perfection!

This entire collection of all 3 books plus all the extra goodies is perfection!! I will write a review for each book under their respective books but let me tell you – Abby knows how to write a phenomenal series and keep each book engaging and intriguing for the reader.

I love how each book allowed the reader to see how Abby and her boys relationships develop – not only together but her with each of them individually. There are some heavy topics that in this series but Abby handles them with grace while still keeping it real and raw.

I read her other series, Boys of South Chapel before I read this and I loved seeing the connections between the two series. They are completely separate reads but it’s always more enjoyable when you see how they can intertwine.

And those bonus pieces we get in this box set – LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! As I said, I am so glad that I read this entire series in one big read.

Abby is my go-to for coming of age, college romance series. And she writes Reverse Harem/Why Choose so incredibly well.

BUY THIS BOX SET!!

Abby Millsaps is an author and storyteller who’s been obsessed with writing romance since middle school. In eighth grade, she failed to qualify for the Power of the Pen State Championships because all her submissions contained the same theme: young people falling in love. #LookAtHerNow

She’s best known for writing unapologetically angsty romance that causes emotional damage for her readers. Abby prides herself in writing authentic characters while weaving mental health, chronic illness, and neurodiverse representation into the fabric of her stories.

Abby met her husband at a house party the summer before her freshman year of college. He had a secret pizza stashed in the trunk of his car that he was saving for a midnight snack–how was she supposed to resist that level of golden retriever energy and preparedness? When Abby isn’t writing, she’s reading, traveling, and raising her three daughters.

Madam Alana

“I don’t understand. Why are my eyes blank?” I frowned while I took in the nuance of my hollowed cheeks and the pinch of my brow as though my imaginary self was pained.
“They are not blank. They are empty.” His response was soft, alluding to a much deeper meaning.
“And why am I holding my heart?” My voice trembled along with my bottom lip. My nose itched and I felt the tip tingling with the telltale signal that tears would surely follow.
“You aren’t holding it, cheri. Your subconscious is offering it unceremoniously.”
My gaze snapped to the image and then back to his soulful one. “Why would I do that?” I whispered, fearful of his answer.
“Because you don’t know its value. That’s why your eyes are empty. You know not what you give of yourself. Soon you will understand your worth, and that image will change. I will help you see the importance of gifting such a piece of you. A piece I intend to own and hold most dear.”
My nose started to run, and I wiped it with the back of my hand. “I don’t understand. You speak in velvet-coated riddles. It confuses me.”
He stared mutely at me for a full minute, the air between us palpable as though it lived and breathed, gliding along every surface of exposed skin to tease and taunt.
“And one day, when you have let your guard down and offered your heart and soul for my safe keeping, you will understand.”
“And if I don’t?” I challenged, not intending to ever give anyone my heart. Not the real me.
“You will.” He stared back, looking stoic and calm.
“But if I don’t? What happens then?” My voice rose, a hint of frustration clear in my response.
His shoulders fell and he tilted his head as though resigned. “Then we will both be sad, because we will have lost what could have been the greatest love of all time.”

Take the Bride

She studied him through lowered lashes, knowing that they hadn’t yet had the much-needed conversation about their past. Given that she wasn’t ready to go home and face the ramifications of a canceled wedding, they had time before they dug that deep.
But they were here together now. “You’re crazy,” she muttered.
He grinned. “Can’t say I haven’t thought the same thing myself after yesterday. But in that moment, I couldn’t stand by and lose you forever.” He rose to his feet, picked up the tray, and put it back on the table, returning to her side of the bed and sitting down beside her.
He grasped her hand, holding her palm in his. “I always considered you mine, even after I let you go. I just didn’t let myself go there again.”

The Marriage Arrangement

“I don’t need to trust anyone but myself.”
Those shrewd, dark eyes glinted with intention. She leaned across the table, startling him when she clasped his hand. Her skin was warm and rough and comforting, the touch of a mother, nurturing and strong at the same time. “Ah, but that is a trap. We all need someone to trust.” She paused and squinted, looking deeper into his eyes. “You have many ghosts you are fighting, no?”
Shock kept him silent for a moment. He tried to force a laugh, but his voice got stuck. A strange foreboding rose up from inside him, urging him to tell her the truth. “Yes,” he finally said. “But I’ve got them under control.”
Her gaze ripped and shredded the lies away. “You and Cat seem to have a connection.”
“Yes,” he said again.
She nodded, her fingers squeezing his hard. “Then you will need to fight for her,” she said. “Do not be afraid to love. Sometimes it’s the only thing that keeps the ghosts away. Capisce?”

Silent Bite

Oliver’s hands roamed her body, his fingers caressing her just like his tongue did. Warmth and desire filled her, rushing through her body like a flashflood. Her entire body tingled pleasantly, and the place between her legs hummed, yearning for a touch. His touch. His kiss. She’d never believed that love could be like this: all consuming, passionate, while at the same time comforting and safe. Yet she felt safe, safe with a vampire, the very creature she had once feared. Oliver had made her forget all her fears and shown her that even a vampire could love.
She felt his love now. It burned brightly and steadily. With every touch and every kiss, she felt it. And tonight, after the ceremony, she would feel it in his bite. His loving bite, how lovingly and silently, he would make her his forever. How he would bestow immortality on her without robbing her of her humanity. How he would make himself vulnerable because once they blood-bonded, Oliver could only feed off her. His body would reject all other blood. In fact, it would make him violently ill if he ever drank blood other than hers.
For a vampire to bond himself to a human required ultimate trust. She felt that trust between them.

Prince Roman

“What do you want?” I growled.
He led me away from the bathroom. The hall was almost completely clear of people. “Come with me.”
“Why should I?”
As he cut a turn into a narrower hall, he pushed against me, and I pushed back. In a split second, I was against the wall and his lips were on mine. There was a fierceness to his mouth, a hunger that was the opposite of cold professionalism. His tongue fed me and his hands owned me. I could have melted into him so easily. I could have given myself over and loved every minute of it. I wanted to. My body wanted to. Every nerve in my body vibrated for him.

Sweet Rivalry

For the love of God, he has tattoos.
And not just a simple, one-off tattoo, but rather ink from his wrist on up to his flexing forearm and beyond where I can’t see.
How did I not notice the shadow of ink beneath his dress shirt?
And when in the hell did preppy-boy Ryder Rodgers transform into that mythical guy who hits every single one of my buttons?
For a moment, I’m rendered incoherent. It’s like I know him but know nothing about him…and now with this new discovery, he just became ten times hotter.

Falling Under You

“There are too many reasons why that would be a bad idea.” Enough said. Case closed.
“Yes, there are,” he agreed. “Forget them.” The last sentence was a command.
I fought against the order, wanting what he was suggesting with acute desire. “I’m not sure I’m the kind of person who can.”
“You can.” He leaned in over my shoulder, his breath skating across the skin of my neck. “You just haven’t encountered the kind of guy who can help you do it.”
I shivered from the heat of his insinuation. “And you think you’re that guy?”
“I know that I am.” He moved his mouth along my jawline, never touching me with anything but the hot air that passed between his lips. “Let me show you who I am. Let me show you who you are.”

Crimson Twilight

She awoke.
And felt Sloan’s warmth beside her. She loved that she lay with him at night and woke with him in the morning. She even loved that they could disagree, even argue, that life with him was comfortable—and yet, she could see him, breathe his scent, watch him walk from the shower and want him as if they’d never made love before.
She rolled over to tell him that she loved him.
But never spoke the words.
A shrill scream pierced the castle’s quiet.

The Mastermind

I fucking love chocolate sauce,” he says in a low, quiet voice. I look up and find his eyes fixed on the tip of my finger.
My heart is beating a wild timpani that’s too fast to be healthy, but I attempt a breezy smile and casual tone when I catch enough breath to speak. “Oh, well, next time you’re here, I’ll have you in to try some. It’s Tesco’s brand but really⁠—”
“Can I try it right now?” he asks.
“You mean…” I look at my finger. “You want this?”
“Yes. Please.”
I hold my finger out to him, and he leans forward, grabs my wrist, and sucks my finger into his mouth.
I gasp at the hot rasp of his tongue as he twirls it around my finger, and his eyes flick up to meet mine. And if the naked heat in them hadn’t nearly given me an arrhythmia, the sensation of his lips closing over it and sucking would certainly have.

Hunky Heartbreaker

I pulled up behind them on the shoulder, my headlights flooding the backseat. The rain was pouring harder than ever, but at that point, I didn’t care. I had to see her, had to talk to her, had to let her know how I felt.
I climbed out of my truck and jogged the few short yards between our cars, yanking the backseat door open and tumbling in. Valentina cursed loudly in Spanish, turning and looking like she was ready to smack me all the way to next Tuesday.
Somehow, I even loved that. She was feisty as hell, and it only made me smile.
“Relax, baby. It’s Duke,” I said, raising my hands in surrender.

Charmed

“Don’t be so coy, baby,” a masculine voice said. “Nina here is far more than my girlfriend. She’s my fiancée. I know we didn’t want to tell anyone until we could have a party, but after what happened with Dad last night, I don’t think we can wait.”
She turned and JT walked in like the fact that a good portion of his office was standing in his suite didn’t bother him at all.
What had he said? Fiancée? Oh, god, she’d just become a fake fiancée to a billionaire.
And now everyone would know. Including her boss.
The night before had been good sex, but this was what it meant to be truly fucked.

Daring Her Love

Eric slid his leg between hers, brushing her inner thigh and causing her dress to inch up, which he followed with his very large, very hot hand. Deliciously lewd thoughts simmered inside her, coalescing with heat prickling her in all the best places.

He leaned in so close she could see sparks of lust in his eyes. “Darlin’, I’ll bite, nip, suck, lick, and anything else your gorgeous body desires. I’ll turn you on in ways you never knew possible.” He hovered there, his cheek a fraction of an inch from hers, his warm breath caressing her ear, and his searing heat seeping into her skin.
Kat. Couldn’t. Breathe.

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/4fMb7qk

I love sports romance stories and really enjoyed these were set during their college years.

I really enjoyed this box set. Each book is a full standalone but you will see overlapping characters in each one. Even though none of the stories are connected to one another, I felt that each book was better than the previous and I think that just shows the author’s writing progress and how she grew as she wrote the stories.

First book: Bad Boys Break Hearts features Mascen and Rory. These two knew one another when they are kids, but a tragic even caused Rory and her family to abruptly leave and neither of them have spoke or seen one another in the last 10 years. They now run into each other at college and things become complicated.

While I love second change, enemies to lovers, I felt alot of this could have all been avoided if these two actually communicated better, not just with each other, but those around them.

This book was right down the middle enjoyable for me.

Second Book: Nice Guys Don’t Win features Cole and Zoey. This is a roommates to lovers and coach’s daughter’s romance – which I absolutely love! This story progressed so naturally and I felt these two handled everything so well. Readers met Cole in book one, but you can easily read this one without any knowledge and love him just as much.

While I personally wanted more tension between the two of them, I really enjoyed this one.

Third Book: Real Players Never Lose features Teddy and Vanessa. Teddy and Vanessa’s romance starts off with fake dating due to issues both Teddy and Vanessa finds themselves in and realize they both could help one another out.

I enjoyed this story the most. This story unfolded very really well and the chemistry was undeniable between the two of them. I will say there were parts that felt a little too drawn-out and one aspect that was left unfinished, but I still enjoyed this one the most.

Overall – a great sports romance boxset!

Slayed By Darkness

A growl rumbled in his throat. He’d spent thousands of nights imagining holding this female in his arms. Nibbling her from head to toe and drinking deep of her decadent blood. She’d been a nagging hunger that refused to leave him in peace.
Now, watching her stroll just a few feet away, his entire being was on fire with a savage need to leap out of the car and claim her. This was why he’d stayed away. He knew his desire for her would be this intense. This grindingly overwhelming.
It made her too dangerous. He couldn’t risk being blinded by a female who’d already killed him once…

Evermore

“I’m going to kiss you. Right. Now.”
And then he does.
But it’s nothing like our first kiss. It’s not fumbling, unsure, or soft. This kiss is powerful and full of passion. Benjamin Pryce kisses like he owns the world. My lips are molded to his and my hands grip his elbows. The heat from his touch is felt down in my toes.
I have never in my entire life been kissed like this.
When his fingers slide back into my hair I gasp, and he uses that opportunity to slide his tongue in. At the first feel of it against mine, I lose it.

The Close-Up

The rest of my apology slithers back down my throat, swallowed by a gasp of shock. I haven’t seen the face above me in a long time—at least, not in person. The dark skin and carved bone structure is leaner and more pronounced now than it was before. Same square chin and bold nose and heavy brows. The guarded eyes are paradoxically framed by a feathering of long, curling lashes. He’s still as arresting as he was the day I met him when I was eighteen years old, but I never thought I’d come face-to-face with him again.

“Takira,” he says, the same surprise coloring his voice that I’m sure is scrawled all over my face.
I take a deep steadying breath that doesn’t seem to be steadying anything before answering, “Naz.”

Rafe

The past eight years of my life melt away when Calliope’s lips touch mine.
Gone.
My entire professional hockey career fades.
The women I’ve dated over time…faceless.
The money I’ve made, unimportant.
Fuck, I’d forgotten how good she tastes. Her tongue touches mine, and when an electric surge of longing pulses through me, I realize we are in dangerous territory. Calliope has no clue that I’ve carried an agonizing torch of desire for my first true love all these years. She can’t understand the depth of my feelings, and if I don’t draw away now, this could be disastrous.

Rough Rhythm

Too late to turn back. Coming to his knees above her, James curled his right hand around her throat, exerting just enough pressure to keep her still. Pink, teeth-marked lips popped open to suck in a breath. A breath James could feel being inhaled against his palm. So perfect. “There’s my little plaything.” He adjusted his grip. “Is that what you wanted to hear?”

Lita’s eyelids fluttered down to conceal her gaze, an acknowledgment of the pet name he’d growled in her ear so long ago in the dark. Just once. But it had been enough to remain poised on his tongue ever since, pleading to be uttered aloud.
James leaned down to inspect the curve of her cheek. “If another man called you his plaything, Lita, I would gut him.”

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Risks We Take by Bella Matthews

by Courtney

The Risks We Take Duet Box Set by Bella Matthews is now live!

From USA Today and #1 Amazon Bestselling Author Bella Matthews comes a Brother’s Best Friend, Forbidden, Star-Crossed Lovers Romance.

Cooper Sinclair is everything I’ve ever wanted, and nothing I could ever have.

He’s cocky and confident, with a sinfully sexy smile and a heart of gold hidden under a chiseled chest. He’s also completely clueless about the way my heart speeds up every time he’s near. Because this man is an entire parade full of red flags.

My brother’s best friend—Flag number one.

A Navy SEAL who moved across the country to risk his life every day—Flag number two.

My new step-brother—Flag number three, four, and five.

After years spent convincing myself we could never work, it only takes one look, one searing kiss, and one forbidden night to unravel everything I thought I knew.

It also only takes one day to shatter it all…

*The Risks We Take Duet Box set contains Worth The Risk, Worth The Fight, and a brand new additional bonus short story Worth It All*

I am so incredibly happy that I was able to read this due (plus bonus short story) in one boxset.

For someone who has not read all of Bella’s previous series or books, this boxset really makes me want to go and read those. This duet is about Carys and Cooper but we meet so many other family members and connections, you want to know their stories too. And no, I was not once confused or lost or overwhelmed by all the characters and how they are all interconnected. It just added another layer to Carys and Cooper’s story.

Carys and Cooper’s story put my heart and emotions through the ringer. These two will have you sad, mad, angry, laughing, grinning like a fool and feeling hot through the entirety of their story. Bella delivers it all and keeps things moving at the perfect pace.

I loved that we see growth from these two in so many ways. Growth as individuals, growth as a couple and growth in life. You understand and empathize with their decisions. I felt everything these two went through.

This story is raw and emotional. Have tissues at the ready because you will need them. But it is worth every tear you shed.

I have never devoured a trilogy so quickly as I did this one.

As someone who has not read any of Alta’s stories (except ones she has co-written under the pen name Blake Hensley with Zoe Blake), I was extremely impressed with this trilogy and how each book is not only amazing on it’s own, but connects wonderfully to other stories.

House of Heathens are the stories of Apollo, Phoenix and Athena – the children of the Godwin’s.

I don’t even know where to start or what to say. These stories became more addictive as read each one. Apollo we meet in the first book. We get to know Phoenix and his mysterious ways and then Athena – she is so much more than people realize.

Each story was riddle with suspense, twists and turns and lots of spice. I love that each story held it’s own appeal and kept me captivated throughout each one. But I loved how I got the overall vibe as I was able to read these stories as a whole and not have to stop in between.

Alta has quickly become a favorite of mine with her detailed writing and her intriguing characters with entertaining story lines that keep readers captive the entire time.

Meet Alta
