My life as a queen bee was always traced for me. I’m rich, I come from an influential family, and I constructed my personality to become the girl everyone wants to be. I rule Silver Falls University with bright smiles and the pretense of being everyone’s friend.

Especially when my family loses its power and someone threatens to spill all my secrets.
In the blink of an eye, my life as I knew it crumbles, and to save the people I love, I’m forced to initiate into the one place I thought I’d never beโ€”the same Secret Society who betrayed my family.

Powerless, I’m thrown into a world of men who want nothing but to use and break me, and only one person can save me.

My ex.

He wants to take care of me even though I hate him.
He wants to protect me when he’s not allowed.
And he wants to make me his even if it puts us both at risk.

I have no hope of surviving a secret society.

Consider me a new Lola King fan. This was my first book by Lola and definitely won’t be my last.

Where do I even start with this review?! Ok – I will do quick what did not work for me and why this isn’t a full five star book. This is a spin-off series and if you have not read anything by Lola (like myself) or did not read the series this is spun off from, you can definitely tell. There are some nuances that are glazed over that, for me, needed to be touched on a bit more to understand the background and history of who these people are. Did it hurt the overall story, no. But it did hurt the flow for me when I hit those parts in the book.

With that being said, overall, this book was really great. I enjoyed the characters, their characteristics and mannerisms and how they all interacted. Lola does a great job of not sugarcoating who they are and stays true to them throughout the entire story.

Ella is Queen Bee and has this image to maintain, all the while, behind closed doors she is anything but she portrays. She’s a complicated FMC with her own demons. She’s been pushed around but at the same time, knows when to hold her own.

Chris is her ex, but also her brother’s best friend, who never knows they dated. To everyone, he’s the perfect gentleman. But Ella knows better than that, or at least she thought she knew him. She comes to learn, that with her, there are zero boundaries he is willing to cross.

Loving the Liar is a dark academia romance with secret society vibes meshed in to deliver one suspenseful story. A story I highly recommend.

Lola King is a dark, steamy romance author who loves giving happily ever afters to antiheroes. She writes about flawed and deeply broken characters and the women who bring them to their knees.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Delayed Penalty by Teagan Hunter

Delayed Penalty by Teagan Hunter is now live! 

I have two goals this season:

  1. Prove to the Seattle Serpents Iโ€™m not a complete screwup.
  2. Stay away from the nanny.

Iโ€™m hardly able to keep myself out of trouble, let alone a seven-year-old, but when my estranged brother gets a life sentence, I have no choice but to clean up my act and take the kid in.

Itโ€™s all going according to planโ€ฆuntil Iโ€™m forced to hire Quinn Benson.

Sheโ€™s everything I need to avoidโ€”flighty, messy, creating chaos everywhere she goes. But she makes my niece happy, so I hire her anyway, keeping our interactions as brief as possible, even when she moves in with me.

Thing is, the more sheโ€™s around, the more I want her aroundโ€”and not just as a nanny. I canโ€™t seem to stop falling into bed with her even when I know I shouldnโ€™t. Quinn goes against everything Iโ€™m trying to accomplish, but I canโ€™t stay away.

This might be one delayed penalty I donโ€™t mind servingโ€ฆ

DELAYED PENALTY is a standalone hockey romance novel. There’s a single guardian a bit on the grumpy side, a sunshine nanny who doesn’t take any crap from him, an adorable little girl you’ll want to hug and keep safe, ridiculous teammates who make way too crude jokes, plenty of steam, and a happy ending.

HAYES!!!! I have been waiting for this man’s story for what feels like a lifetime and Teagan did not disappoint me with this one.

Delayed Penalty started off on the right foot with hilarity I have always come to love from Teagan and just gets better from there. Teagan gives readers two characters who are more than relatable in so many ways. But I love that these two compliment one another too.

Hayes and Quinn find themselves charting new territory they never anticipated and when Hayes needs Quinn and Quinn unknowingly needs Hayes help – these two find themselves tangled up in more ways than one.

I loved this story and how it all unfolded. Teagan always deliver the right amount of humor at the right times and it blends wonderfully with the romance. The banter between the characters helps keeps thing from getting too serious, but doesn’t take away from anything either.

Delayed Penalty is a great addition to the Seattle Serpents series.

When not writing, you can find her watching entirely too many hours of Supernatural, One Tree Hill, or New Girl. She’s mildly obsessed with Halloween and prefers cooler weather. She married her high school sweetheart, and they currently live in the PNW.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Truly Madly Deeply by L.J. Shen

This old flame just might set them on fire.

Truly Madly Deeply, an all-new enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, standalone romance and the first book in the Forbidden Love Series from New York Times bestselling author L.J. Shen is now available!

Conceited, unattainable, and downright delicious, renowned Michelin-starred chef Ambrose Casablancas has one passion in lifeโ€•food.

Women are a distraction, and he doesn’t do those. Especially Cal Litvin, his baby sister’s best friend. Her entire existence is a complication; she’s awkward, eccentric, infuriatingโ€ฆ

And, much to his chagrin, hotter than his kitchen.

Ambrose has a lot on his plate: a new restaurant to open, a multimillion-dollar property deal to execute, and a violent stalker to tame.

Then Cal shows up at his doorstep, looking for both a job and salvation after their messy goodbye. His resolve, like his patience, is ebbing each day she works at his restaurant.

Because Cal is no longer a doe-eyed girl.

Now? She’s the woman he’ll do anything to conquer.

***

Quirky, compassionate ball of sunshine Calla Litvin can’t catch a break, and not just because she swore off running. Back in her hometown to nurse her mother’s broken heart after losing her father, she finds herself jobless, hopeless, and penniless. She hopes to rekindle her friendship with her former BFF, but Dylan is attached at the hip to her cruel brotherโ€•the one Cal’s been secretly crushing on since middle school.

Falling for the bad boy the second time around would be a mistake of gargantuan proportions.

Too bad she’s always been clumsy.

Oh, Ms Shen you definitely know how write very intricate and complicated characters and I love it so much!!

Truly Madly Deeply is quite possibly the best title for this book as nothing else will explain Row and Cal’s story. I had no idea what to expect from this story and honestly, Shen kept readers clinging to the pages from start to finish.

This story is a slow burn romance, and for good reason, but not the slow romance you think. Row and Cal’s story is definitely unique but very raw and real and readers get to really understand these from all sides.

Row and Cal intrigued me so much and not just together. I enjoyed getting to know each of them as individuals but also how they are together. I enjoyed their banter with one another, but also with their friends and family members.

Shen wrote a very well-rounded story and I enjoyed that as a reader I got to truly watch this all play out on these pages. I enjoyed the length of this story and found each scene and part was poignant in Row and Cal’s story.

Definitely a great read and one I highly recommend.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Anathema by Keri Lake

Title: Anathema
Series: The Eating Woods Duology #1
Author: Keri Lake
Genre: Dark Fantasy
Tropes: Enemies to Lovers/Forced Proximity
Only One Bed/Found Family
Release Date: September 10, 2024
BLURB
There are whispers about what lurks in Witch Knellโ€”the forest where sinners go to die. The villagers call it The Eating Woods because whatโ€™s taken is never given back. Only those whoโ€™ve lost their senses would dare to go near it.
Or the banished.
Maevyth Bronwick knows better than to breach the misty labyrinth of trees, but a tragic turn of events compels her beyond the archway of bones, to a boundary no mortal has crossed before. One that cloaks a dark and fantastical world thatโ€™s as dangerous as it is alluring.
Itโ€™s there that he dwells, the cursed lord of Eidolon. The one tasked to keep her hidden from the magehood that seeks to crucify her in the name of an arcane prophesy. Zevander Rydainn, known to his prey as The Scorpion, is the coldest, most calculated assassin in all of Aethyria and heโ€™d sooner toss his feisty ward to a pack of vicious fyre-drakes than keep her safe.
If only he could.
Maevythโ€™s blood is the key to breaking his despised curse and vanquishing the slumbering evil in Witch Knell. Unfortunately for Lord Rydainn, fate has other plans for the irresistible little enchantress. And his growing obsession with her threatens to destroy everything.
Including himself.

ALL. THE. STARS!!!

I purposely made myself read this book at a slower pace than normal because I knew I would gobble this up quickly (even with as large as it is) and I wanted to savor this story.

Keri never ceases to amaze me with her unparalleled ability to create gothic worlds that are unique and so intricate. Her writing talent is off-the-charts amazing with how easily readers are able to visualize what Keri has described in her writing.

And her characters – they are multi-layered, deep and oh-so captivating. They capture your eye and keep you wondering the entire time.

Anathema is a highly-addictive and captivating dark, gothic romantacy story that keeps readers engrossed from start to finish and then begging for more.

Maevyth and Zevander’s story is a very slow burn and I mean slow but it is so worth it. Keri gives her readers a story that you won’t be able to walk away from once you start.

As large as this book is, the story flows perfectly and Keri delivers the perfect amount of darkness with the twists and turns readers won’t see coming. The book will be over before readers realize it and we are all waiting with bated breath to see what happens next.

“What is taken will never return.”

Anathema is just one more proof that Keri is the Queen of Dark Gothic Romance.

Caribbean Crush by R.S. Grey is now live!

Set sail with USA Today bestselling author R.S. Grey in this sizzling romance between old rivals who reunite on a cruise ship, only to discover that they want much more than just another competition.

Casey Hughes is a struggling travel journalist desperate for a big break when she lands the assignment of a lifetime: hop on board Aurelia for its maiden voyage through paradise. While she’ll bask in the luxury cruise ship’s fine dining and complimentary spa treatments, her real mission is to snag an exclusive interview with Phillip Woodmont.

Casey and the elusive shipping heir have history. Once, they were nothing short of brutal enemies. Though the former brace-faced teen is now a suited-up CEO with devastating good looks, he makes it clear to Casey that he has no interest in forgetting their past.

The volatile grudge between them is as explosive as ever. More than once Casey is tempted to toss Phillip overboard, but for her work, she’ll have to swallow her pride. If it’s an apology he’s after, she’ll serve it up on a silver platter. If he wants her to walk the plank, she’ll salute with an aye, aye, Captain.

Casey can’t let him provoke her. She needs this interview. So if Phillip wants to play dirty, Casey will just have to play dirtier.

I can always count on Rachel delivering an entertaining yet sweet summer read.

I enjoyed this one more than I expected. I really liked the push and pull between Casey and Phillip. These two have a history and it’s not a good one.

Casey is at her wit’s end with her job and Phillip ends up being on the receiving end of her attitude when he refuses to give the interview she needs for her job.

Phillip is quite the character. I really enjoyed him and think he made this book all the more enjoyable for me.

Overall, a great summer romance read.

Ms. Tucker has saved the best for last!!! Wow, this book definitely blew me away and all my expectations.

This is the final book in her Fate and Flame series and it was so worth all the turmoil and suspense we have been put through. And do not let the 700+ pages scare you or deter you – you will fly through these pages and be all caught up in everything that transpires

This is told from different POV’s and that helps keeps this story moving and allows readers to truly see all the ins and outs of each character. The overall plot still surrounds Romeria but the additional and new things (I am trying to be as vague as possible) are perfection as it all ties together wonderfully and gives us readers what we want.

Ms. Tucker definitely gave her all in this book and even leaves a few things unsettled which has me wondering will we get a spin-off in the near future!?!?

Absolutely read this series; it’s now complete so you have zero reasons to not start now!

โ€œWade . . .โ€ I say his name for the first time, to him, in years. It hurts, hearing my voice call out to him.

He stops and sets his shovel down. I didnโ€™t expect him to walk toward me, but he does. Each step of his is deliberate and forceful, almost like heโ€™s trying to leave his impression in the grass. Heโ€™s wearing his khaki cargo pants and from experience I know each pocket has something heโ€™ll need today. A tool, twine, or trimmer line for the weed wacker. Iโ€™ve spent countless hours sitting on my parentโ€™s front porch, watching him cut lawn with precision.

Iโ€™m out of breath when he comes face to face with me. He stands close. Close enough that we share the same air. Everything in my mind tells me to step back, to put a wall between us, but my heart sings at the closeness. I know Iโ€™ll never win the battle of hating him as long as weโ€™re in the same town.

We stare at one another, taking each other in. His dark hair, brown eyes, and scruff all call to me, beg me to get lost in everything that is Wade Jenkins. I have loved this man for most of my life, and yet heโ€™ll never be mine.
ย 
ย 

This is was a really sweet, second-chance southern romance. I have not read any of the other books in this series and this one can be easily read as a stand-alone.

Wade and Lennon were in love, a long time ago. Now they avoid each other at all costs. But one call changes everything for both of them.

I absolutely loved Wade; he made this book for me. Lennon frustrated me at times with her attitude, but it fit her character style. I enjoyed watching these two come back into each others lives again and navigating their new normal.

Another enjoyable read from Heidi.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Devil Himself by BB Easton

The Devil Himself by BB Easton is now live! 

From the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 44 Chapters About 4 Men (inspiration for the hit series Sex/Life on Netflix) comes the highly anticipated sequel to her dark Irish mafia romance, Devil of Dublin.

Growing up, I spent every night tucked under my motherโ€™s arm, dreamily listening to tales from her favorite book seriesโ€”Legend Has It by Darby Donovan, a collection of spooky folklore about a town called Glenshire and the lonely, gray-eyed fairy prince who haunted the woods there. I knew they were just stories, but when my mother died and left me in the care of my cold, abusive father, that fictional fairy prince suddenly became very, very real to me. It was as if he was always there, hiding in the shadows, offering me his silent comfort. I turned him into an imaginary friend when I needed one most.

And thirteen years later, Iโ€™m doing it again.

When my coastal Irish town is bombed by the new Russian president, a Bratva leader seeking revenge on the United Irish Brotherhood, those missiles destroy everything Iโ€™ve ever knownโ€”my home, my family, and evidently my sanityโ€”because when I pull an injured Russian Navy officer out of the sea, a man who led the charge against my town, I canโ€™t bring myself to let him die.

Secluded together in my secret hiding spot, weโ€™re safe from the Mafia war raging outside, but the overwhelming connection I feel to this stranger is a battle I fight every single day. I hate him with everything that I am, but when he looks at me with those smoky gray eyes, all I see is my friend. When he touches me, all I feel is desire. And when he wraps his lips around the sustenance I offer him, all I want is to feel them pressed against mine, loving me, putting me back together.

But no one can live in a fantasy world forever, and when reality finally finds us, the truth about him is worse than anything I could have imagined.

The man I rescued is no fairy prince.

Heโ€™s the goddamn Devil himself.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: The Devil Himself is a continuation of Devil of Dublin and is not intended to be read as a standalone. It contains the same dark themes, graphic violence, and explicit content as Book 1, but if you have questions about specific subject matter, a comprehensive content warning can be found on my website.

We are back in Ireland and B.B. immediately takes our breath away in the first chapter.

I am not going to give you any details about this book. The blurb is all you need if you need to know what you are getting yourself into.

B.B. takes readers on another fast-paced, action-packed, suspenseful story. But it’s also so much more than that – it’s a journey for Clover and Damien that is filled with sorrow but hope. It’s definitely a rough journey, but it’s one that in the end will leaving feeling so happy.

That’s all I am saying. This story was so much more than I expected and I loved it even more because of that. Definitely a highly recommend read, but please review TW if you have any.

Meet BB Easton

BB Easton is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 44 CHAPTERS ABOUT 4 MEN, the hilarious, steamy, tell-all memoir that inspired the Netflix Original Series, SEX/LIFE. Within the first month, SEX/LIFE was viewed by 67 million households worldwide, making it the 3rd Most Watched Netflix Original Series of all time.

BB was a stressed-out school psychologist and mother of two when the inspiration to write 44 CHAPTERS ABOUT 4 MEN struck. Through that process, she rediscovered her passion for writing, became dangerously sleep-deprived, and finally mustered enough courage to quit her job and become a full-time author.

BB went on to publish four more wickedly funny, shockingly steamy, and heartwarmingly autobiographical books in the 44 CHAPTERS series: SKIN, SPEED, STAR, and SUIT. Since then, sheโ€™s been hard at work, writing fictional stories that appeal to her love for us-against-the-world romance, including a dystopian trilogy (BAD BOYS DONโ€™T DIE), a psychologist-client romantic comedy (GROUP THERAPY), and a dark Mafia romance series (DEVIL OF DUBLIN).

Release Day Blitz…First Time by Heidi McLaughlin & L.P. Dover

Title: First Time
Authors: Heidi McLaughlin & L.P.Dover
Genre: Contemporary Romance / Short story / New Adult
Release Date: August 27, 2024
Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors Heidi McLaughlin and L.P. Dover team up again for a sexy new Society X series that will have you begging for more!

The rules of Society X are simple โ€ฆ break them and youโ€™re out.

The exclusive club has it all:

Staying anonymous in the Dark Room.

Watching your every desire in the Viewing Room.

Exploring scandalous fun in the Play Room.

For Brent Danson, the club doesnโ€™t interest himโ€”at least, not until he meets the beauty behind the bar, who happens to be an old flame from his pastโ€ฆ Scotlyn Hill.

Scotlyn brings out a side in him he hasnโ€™t explored yet. Sheโ€™s beautiful, experienced, and not the virgin he is. But that soon changes when they both give in to the temptations Society X has to offer, especially the Dark Room.

However, when the time comes for all to be revealed, will Brent and Scotlyn be able to make things work? One way or another, neither one will be the same.

โ€œDid you get your eyeful again?โ€ I joke as I close the distance between us.

Brentโ€™s cheeks turn red and he adjusts his glasses. He reminds me of the Clark Kent version of Superman. When he has his glasses on, heโ€™s a nerdy computer guy. But when they come off . . . he looks completely different. Very sexy.

Brent chuckles. โ€œI did. There was a lot of bare skin in there.โ€

PERFECTION!!

How do I review this book and not give anything away!?! Pam truly knows how to deliver a story to her readers that is jaw dropping and absolutely engaging from start to finish.

Heart of Frost and Scars is the third and final book in her Frozen Fate series. You MUST read these books in order. This book starts off exactly where Cage of Ice and Echoes ended and readers are immediately thrusted back into the lives of our four amazing characters.

Just when you thought Pam could not throw anything more at us, she shocks us all with this book. I absolutely the new twists in this book and it just keeps readers write at the edge, wondering what is going to happen next.

This entire series is mangled up in a web of twists and turns that’s riddled with lies, deceit and deception. I have been left gasping so many times but also in awe of Frankie too. This series definitely puts your emotions through the ringer.

Highly, highly recommended series. It’s very dark in many ways, but so incredibly well written and one that no reader should pass up.

Author Bio

New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author, Pam Godwin, lives in the Midwest with her husband, cats, retired greyhounds, and an old, foul-mouthed parrot. She traveled the world for seven years, attended three universities, married the vocalist of her favorite rock band, and retired from her quantitative analyst career in 2014 to write full-time.

Her interests veer toward the unconventional: bourbon, full-body tattoos, and tragic villains. Equally peculiar are her aversions to sleeping, eating meat, and dolls with blinking eyes.
