Release Day Blitz & Review…Dissolution by Rachel Van Dyken

 

Dissolution by Rachel Van Dyken is now live!

 

A mafia romance about family, loyalty, and love, Dissolution is the powerful conclusion to #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken’s Eagle Elite series.

“There is always a beginning—I will be their end.”

For ten years the Cosa Nostra has ruled with an iron fist in Chicago—their reign is about to end, and I’ll be the one to bring them down.

One more job for the Italian Americans, and I’m done.
Except this “one job” involves saving the boss’s brother and sister.
When things go horribly wrong, and a price is put on all of our heads from my Family back home—I’m forced to stay in Chicago, offer not just my gun but my protective services to the young girl I saved while also making sure nobody touches her.
Myself included.

My own Family has splintered.
Half want me dead, half want me alive, and the only people willing to protect me are the very ones I hate—her included.

I’m the Grim Reaper of the Sicilian mafia, and I bow to no one, not even her, so when she asks me to teach her to fight, when she tells me she wants to be made, I give in just so I can piss off the bosses.
Only I made one mistake.

I protect her from the world.
But who protects me from her?

One more battle remains between the families in Italy and in the States.
One more battle where I’m torn between both sides.
And I’m left protecting the one girl who has the potential to wreck us all.

It all started a decade ago at Eagle Elite University—the beginning.
It will end on the streets of Chicago—with me as the end.

I, Santino Sinacore, am their end.


**This may be the end of the OG Eagle Elite, but it is NOT the end of the Eagle Elite World!**

Release Day Blitz & Review…Hail Mary by Kandi Steiner

 

Hail Mary by Kandi Steiner is now live!

 

Leo F*cking Hernandez.

North Boston University’s star running back, notorious bachelor, and number one on my people I would murder if I could get away with it list.

And now?

He’s my new roommate.

I used to think I loved him.

But that was before I hated him.

He doesn’t remember who I am, or how he made my life miserable for years. And before I unknowingly moved across the street from him, I couldn’t have cared less. I was living my life despite him and what happened that summer, chasing my dream of becoming a tattoo artist.

“The Pit,” as the university so gracefully nicknamed the house he lives in with three other football players, has served as nothing more than a pain in my ass and a constant reminder of the boy who broke my heart. Watching him parade his one-night-stands in and out of it never helped, either.

But with rent this cheap and so close to the tattoo shop, I’ve learned to ignore him — no matter how he’s tried to get under my skin.

At least, until this summer. Because when a water and mold disaster leaves me with no choice but to vacate my house, I have nowhere to go. And Leo Hernandez offers me a deal I can’t refuse.

Live at The Pit with him and the guys, free of charge, until my landlord fixes this mess.

Ignoring him was easy when I lived across the street, but in the same house, with him shirtless half the time and watching me with his cocky grin and searing gaze? It’s impossible.

Still, I have to try. I have to push him away, even when he makes it infuriatingly difficult to do so.

He’s broken my heart once.

I won’t let him do it again.

KANDI!!!! What a way to end this amazing series!

Hail Mary is the final book in the Kandi Steiner’s Red Zone Rivals series and she truly delivers a Hail Mary – pun absolutely intended.

Kandi has nailed the college sports romance with this series. I cannot say enough amazing things about each book. And they’re all so different and yet so damn consuming.

Mary and Leo’s story was one my favorite ones to read. Mary and Leo end up being roommates, much to Mary’s dismay. Mary has always been apprehensive about football players, but she been quite mean and rude towards Leo is particular. He has no clue why but he does everything he can to make suer she’s comfortable during her temporary stay.

Kandi has this knack for writing characters that are uniquely strong and know how to hold their own. I loved Mary so much. And Leo – that man surprised me!! Their story was superb!!

I have loved every single one of these books int this series. First series that I have ever given 5 stars to every book.

Truly, a MUST READ!!!

BLURB:

Twenty years have passed, yet not one thing in my hometown has changed … even the man I left behind.

I was the girl no one could touch because they all feared my father. He was a legend, the head football coach who had created this town’s Friday night lights. Only two football players dared to win my heart—the boy next door and the new guy in town. I grew up on this football field and fell hard for these two men, who loved me just as much as the game.

When my dad died, decisions had to be made, and I chose the one who held my heart.

As I sit here in the stands, watching the one I didn’t choose fill my father’s role, I can’t help but remember our fumbled past. Wondering if I followed the right guy or what my life would have been like if I hadn’t.

This is a tough one for me to review. It’s an interesting love triangle. And let me tell you – it’s nowhere near what you think.

This book is told mostly from past and builds to the present. I have to say that I enjoyed how Lauren was able to keep you guessing to the very end as to who Sadie ends up with.

I will tell you that there is no unnecessary drama in this and the love triangle isn’t as bad as it sounds.

This was a unique take on YA sport romance with a love triangle. That’s all I am going to say.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Before Us by Jewel E. Ann

 

Before Us by Jewel E. Ann is now live!

 

I never saw him coming.

I didn’t know what would happen after my client found me sleeping in my car.

I’d been cleaning his house as his wife was dying.

I didn’t expect them to invite me to live with them.

I didn’t expect Suzie to become my lifeline—until she was gone.

I didn’t expect him to ask me to marry him when he found out I needed medical insurance.

I didn’t expect to fall in love with a grieving man.

There are so many reasons to keep my distance from Zach. Every tender moment secreted away.

When we’re not together, I miss the man I call husband.

Does he miss his wife? If so, which one?

MORE THAN 5 STARS!!!!

Before Us is the perfect example of why I love reading Jewel’s books.

I don’t even know where to start but I do know that as a reader, I will not spoil any of the story line because the book needs to be experienced as you read.

Before Us was quite an emotional read for me and I knew it was going to be from the very beginning. And I was completely ok with that. However, it’s Jewel’s writing that puts this book on a whole other level. You experience everything these characters go through; I cried, laughed and just felt so much in between.

Jewel sprinkles some of the best advice about living within these pages – I practically highlighted the book!! I loved the dialogue and the interactions amongst all these characters. I LOVED EVERYTHING!!

I am truly at a loss for words to express how phenomenal this story is. Jewel’s writing is superb and it’s so unlike any other author I’ve read.

Before Us is a MUST READ!!

Nicola has popped my M/M romance cherry and it was the perfect book to do so.

William’s story is one for the books. I felt his emotions coming off the pages and just wanted to swallow him up in hugs and love.

I won’t give his story away because it’s one that needs to blind. The blurb gives you and idea of what his story is about, but it’s experiencing everything that he feels and goes through that makes this book phenomenal.

I have to say that Nicola creates some of the best characters and makes them so relatable and easy to love.

There is so much growth and self-reflection in this book and it just really seeped into my soul.

I cannot wait for everyone to read this one.

Series: Bower Boys #2
Author: Kelly Siskind
Publisher: Montlake
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 31, 2023
 
 
BLURB

A grumpy bartender learns he’s a dad in Kelly Siskind’s latest Bower Boys romance full of second chances, small-town charm, and steamy, slow-burn heat.
 
For the last ten years, I’ve been living a lie in witness protection. But the drug cartel that put me there isn’t a threat anymore, so I can have my life back. I should be thrilled, right?
 
Wrong.
 
The last thing I want to do is go back home and show everyone how far I’ve fallen. I’m not the high-powered lawyer they all expect me to be. I’m just a guy who slings drinks and scowls at the world.
 
But then I hear about Max, my ex’s ten-year-old son. My ten-year-old son.
 
I have to go back now. Figure out how to be a dad. Face the love of my life. Make things right with Sadie and earn her trust. Will she have me—or is it too late to reinvent myself as the man she once loved?

Kelly Siskind has delivered another great book in the Bower Boy series.

Demond is the oldest of the brothers and the broodiest of them. Everything was stolen from him when his family was forced into WITSEC because of his father’s choices. He’s never been able to truly deal with everything he lost. But now that he can return to his old life, he’s not sure he wants to until he finds out about Max.

I absolutely loved watching Desmond become more than his grumpy self. I loved watching him get to know his son and learning how he hits into Max’s life. The interactions between those two are my favorite parts of this book. It was just beautiful to watch Des become a better version of himself.

Des and Sadie fell into their familiar relationship with ease. I do wish we had her POV and how she’s handled things in the last ten years without Des around (that is my only gripe) but you can tell these two are fated to be together.

10 Signs You Need to Grovel is chocked full of emotions and will have you loving this small town (and all the people in it), very easily.

I loved everything about Haven and Hayes story. The chemistry is undeniable but that underlying drama that threatens to crush it, is what adds another layer to this story.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Jasper Vale by Devney Perry

 

Jasper Vale by Devney Perry is now live!

 

Eloise Eden’s pride and joy is her family’s hotel in Quincy, Montana. Her lifelong dream is to own The Eloise Inn. All she has to do is prove to her parents that she’s the epitome of responsible. That her days of being duped and making reckless decisions are history. She’s so close she can taste it.

Until after one weekend in Las Vegas, she comes home married to a stranger.

Jasper must have put her under a spell with those soul-deep eyes because after a single night together, they woke up husband and wife. Her only hope is to keep this marriage a secret until it’s annulled. Then she’ll pretend it never happened.

Except Jasper begs her to stay married. To fake it for three months so she can accompany him to a wedding. Maybe she’s lost her mind to agree. But her brooding husband seems desperate. It’s only three months, right? Then she’ll say goodbye to Jasper Vale, and with any luck, hello to her new hotel.

Goodreads: https://geni.us/VtVvUdB

Jasper Vale is the fourth book in Devney’s The Edens series and can be read as a full standalone.

I have been waiting for Eloise’s book since I started this series and I was not disappointed.

First off, I have to say that I love that we got to see Eloise in Vegas and being free for once. That started of this book in the best way and gave us a full circle of who Eloise really is. I loved Eloise from the start of this series and getting to know her even more throughout this book just made me love her.

We got to meet Jasper in the last book, but only knew him as Foster’s trainer. He’s definitely a closed-off individual but as the book progresses, we get to know him better through his interactions with Eloise. He’s got quite the past and it explains a lot.

I loved that I could feel the connection between Eloise and Jasper come to life as I read this book. There are certain scenes I did not care for, but it didn’t hurt my overall love of this book. Eloise’s story was everything I had expected it to be.

Overall, I absolutely enjoyed this book. Another smashing hit in The Edens series.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken and bestselling author Patti Stanger comes a gripping love story of cursed soulmates who are forced to relive tragedy over and over again until their curse is broken…

Compelled to seduce, designed to kill.

What do you do when your love destroys the only person you are designed to be with?

For centuries I’ve been trapped in a curse with my soulmate, only she has no idea… until history finally repeats itself.

The Matchmaker of the Fae felt wronged when we both chose our own destinies, and now, we’re forced to relive our fate over and over again.

I try like hell to fix the curse, but I remember nothing after each death, only that I’m lonely and heartbroken.

The small town of Orca Cove, Oregon, doesn’t help matters.

Filled with paranormal lore from all over the world… if anything, they’re just as trapped as I am.

My only help is the large library on my estate.

If I can just find the notes I know I would have hidden, along with texts, maybe this time will be different.

The house groans with need for its mistress.

My heart breaks with sorrow that she doesn’t recognize me until it’s too late.

Her blood will always be on my hands, just like her heart is in mine.

The path to your soul mate isn’t a fairytale—at least ours isn’t.

My Fae queen thinks she’s nothing more than a normal college student. She believes that the world is just as she sees it, without a clue that the darkness lurking in the shadows, the man she’ll fall for once again, the man who will be her demise…

Is me.

Compel is co-written by both Rachel Van Dyken and Patti Stanger. The blurb gives you fantasy vibes with a dark twist.

This book was definitely interesting and honestly, I am still uncertain on my exact feelings.

I am a huge fantasy (and paranormal) reader and this book was definitely different from any that I have read in either genre. I struggled with the beginning of this book and even the rest of the way through, found everything very vague for a fantasy read.

I enjoyed the premise of this story, it just lacked of world and character development for a fantasy read (definitely not a paranormal read). The descriptions of the characters were very vague (minus hair color which seemed to be prominent) and while it’s set in today’s world, I felt like it lacking something.

I enjoy the overall idea of this book. There were things that worked for me and things that didn’t. If certain things were more developed, I would have truly loved this book more.

Release Day Blitz & Review…How To Lose At Love by Sara Ney

 
 
 
 
 
Release Date: January 19

 

 

I needed a good girl to save my bad reputation.

 

With too much on my plate, the very last thing on my mind was a relationship—the football draft was looming and dating got in the way. I never understood why my teammates bothered with girlfriends. None of us had the time.
 
When my sports agent suggested that being seen in public with a respectable girl would begoodfor mybadreputation, I couldn’t think of a single person to help me out. The only girls I knew weren’t wifey material, and the ones who were? Might catch feelings.
 
Except Ryann Winters.
 
Responsible. Sarcastic. Smart. Ryann was perfect but there wasoneclincher: she was my teammates ex-girlfriend and I had recently beenpaidby him to dump her.
 
Not the best start to a fake relationship…
