Shane--

I live at the end of this dark, deserted, dead-end street for a reason.

I don't like neighbors, and I'm not into kids. So I'm pissed to learn the vacant house across the street just got rented.

When a child comes snooping around my house, I'm forced to do the last thing I want to do--meet my new neighbor. When I go to return the kid to her side of the street, I come face-to-face with one pissed off mama bear and the hottest chick I've ever laid eyes on--and that's saying a lot.

Suddenly I'm all about being neighborly; the only problem is she wants nothing to do with me or my MC life.

Can I blame her?

Guess I'll just have to change her mind.

When problems start piling up at the club, I can't help wondering if she's to blame. I've never had a woman twist me in knots like this one.

My life is simple and uncomplicated--I live for my club.

I have a feeling she's going to complicate everything.

Brianna--

When I see the motorcycles pull in across the street, I suddenly realize why this rental house was so cheap and the leasing agent so eager to unload it.

But when you're running for your life, a dead-end street with few neighbors sounds perfect.

One look at the badass biker next door is all it takes for me to know I want nothing to do with trouble like him.

He's the worst kind of dangerous--a man built like a Chippendale dancer who radiates confidence and fearlessness. I'm sure there's not a situation he couldn't handle or a room he wouldn't own just by walking through the door.

He's the kind of man men fear and women want to tame---the kind of man my mother warned me about.

I've got secrets, and he wants to know every one of them.

I have a feeling he's going to complicate everything.

Release Blitz & Review: Break Me

 




★NOW AVAILABLE★

Break Me is live! In a powerful, smoldering novel from the bestselling authors MJ Fields and Chelsea Camaron, two tortured souls team up to overcome the past, finding the courage to heal . . . and to love. 

 




Jason “Cobra” Stanley was born to fight. With a father like his, he had to toughen up just to survive. Now Cobra tries to take out all of his frustration, all of his anger, and all of his pain in the MMA cage. But after he receives one too many hits to the head during a match with Jagger Caldwell, the cycle of violence comes to a screeching halt. Cobra wakes up in the hospital, under the care of a nurse whose blond hair shines like a halo—and whose pure heart touches him on the deepest level.

Lorraine Bosch is a fighter too. Having escaped from her own controlling father, she prides herself on remaining professional, despite the chaos in the ER. But Cobra is the ultimate distraction. Lorraine knows she should run away screaming from his rippling muscles and shattered psyche. And yet how can she deny this broken man a second chance—especially since she knows exactly what he’s been through? Lorraine’s used to playing guardian angel. Now it’s her turn to find heaven in Cobra’s arms.



Redemption Road series

Pre-Order Use Me





I give credit to these two authors for tackling quite possible one of the most vile characters ever introduced in a series. Cobra is no nice guy looking for a nice girl. We meet him in the Caldwell Brothers series as an opponent to Jagger in the MMA cage. He plays dirty and he doesn't care about anything.

So kuddos to the authors. This book is just as gritty and dirty as Cobra. There isn't much to feel good about until about half way through. There is so much "what the f**kery" going on in the beginning! I mean what more could possibly be told about how messed up these two main characters are??? But with his "angel" Lorraine by his side. Jason can finally see that the sins of the past do not necessarily predict the future. The bad guy has some good in him. By the end of the book, I was ready to cheer him on. His courage and love for Lo outweighing any evil he had done in the past.

This is not a light fluffy read. Know that going in. In the end, love doesn't make all the hurt go away but it helps us to heal. Jason and Lo end up being perfect for each other. The cycle of abuse and hate ends with their love. It's an HEA they can both be proud of.

Release Blitz & Review: The Naked Fisherman

 

The Naked Fisherman by Jewel E. Ann is now live!

USA Today & Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, Jewel E. Ann returns with an addictive new adult romance about a young woman who discovers years of Sunday sermons didn't prepare her for the many lessons of the crude and sexy man who is now her boss.


  

It's official.

I'm eighteen and a young woman with endless possibilities on my way to reunite with my mom in Colorado after five years apart--she had a little weed incident in Nebraska.

At the airport, she springs the news on me ... she's leaving for a month of job training. And me? I'm left on my own in the basement she's renting from the fisherman, aka her landlord who lives upstairs.

He's ten years older than me. Never wears a shirt. And makes it hard to remember all the things I learned at Christian Academy.

Did I mention he's also my new boss?

This book is the first of a duet about a coming of age young woman and a man 10 years her senior.  Their worlds could not be more different.  Reese was raised very strict Christian and Fisher has been very reluctant to settle down with one woman. 

The two are thrown together when Reese's reunion with her mother lasts all of 2 days and Fisher is tasked with employing her for the summer.  Meanwhile she is living in his basement and getting her eyes peeled wide open by all the differences there are in the world. 

Honestly, I have read every book this author puts out. She does not ever disappoint with her writing.  It may be that I don't read many age gap romances??? I'm not sure. But this one felt very much like Henna and Bodhi's story "A Place Without You".  That was my first thoughts.  Once I was in to the story, I grew to love Reese so much.  And Fisher was really trying to be the good guy and do the right thing by her. 

The story ends on a cliffie--again similar to Henna's story.  I can't wait for the conclusion of this one!  Young Reese was a spitfire. I can't wait to see what has changed since the end of book one! 

*I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.



Jewel is a Wall Street Journal & USA Today best selling author a with a quirky sense of humor. When she's not saving the planet one tree at a time, you can find her role modeling questionable behavior to her three boys, binge-watching Netflix with her husband, and writing mind-bending romance.

Release Blitz & Review: Stolen: Dante's Vow

 




Title: Stolen: Dante's Vow
Author: Natasha Knight
Genre: Dark Mafia Romance
Release Date: September 30, 2021


BLURB

Five years.
That’s how long it took me to find her.

Five years after my world shattered, leaving me a scarred and broken man.

By then, the girl I knew was gone. In her place stood a woman. One who looked like an angel. An impossible, beautiful angel.

I killed for her. Soaked my hands in the blood of those who hurt her and rescued her from hell.

But hell has a way of following you. Becoming a part of you. Maybe the only part you recognize.

I had every intention of bringing her home. Setting her free.
I swear I did.

But the men who stole her all those years ago weren’t done with her yet. They’d stop at nothing to get her back. And I’d kill any man who tried to take her from me.

She calls me her avenging angel.
But I know the truth.
I’m no angel.

Because even as I tell myself I’m protecting her I know one thing for sure.

I am a monster, too. No better than them.
Because just like them, I’ll never let her go.

Author's note: Stolen is Dante Grigori's story and although a standalone, would be better enjoyed after reading With This Ring and I Thee Take.

Five years.
Five fucking years. That’s how long it has taken me to find her. And the only reason I did was word circulating about Petrov having been duped.
Felix Pérez going into hiding.
Bastard.
I climb out of the car at the entrance of The Hudson Hotel. An icy drizzle pelts me as I adjust the collar of my coat before looking up at the penthouse windows more than twenty floors up.
She’s here.
It’s her.
It has to be.
The second SUV comes to a stop behind ours and as Matthaeus flanks me, three more men fall in line behind him. I push my hands into my pockets and walk toward the entrance. A bellman opens the door. I don’t miss the widening of his eyes when the light from a passing car dances across my face. Maybe it’s not my appearance that’s got him freaked. Maybe it’s my entourage. Because we look like trouble.
And we are.
I make my way to the concierge desk and give the attendant my name. Well, not my real name. The name of the asshole who paid extra to get his turn early in the night. Before she’s used up. He’s dead now.
The attendant can’t quite keep eye contact. I blink, watching him as his eyes move over the eyepatch, the deep, still angry X-shaped scar across my cheek. I let him look. Let him clear his throat in embarrassment as he makes a point of rearranging his desk while asking for identification.
I pat my pockets. “Guess I forgot it.”
He finally forces himself to meet my gaze, his neck and face flushed.
“Envelope,” I say, holding out my hand. I don’t have time for this buffoon.
“Yes, sir.” His hand trembles as he hands the envelope over. He wants me gone and I can’t blame him.
I check my watch. We have to time this exactly right. I walk toward the elevators followed by my men. As if to oblige us, the doors slide open just as we get to them, and we step inside. I rip the envelope open, press the key into the slot marked Penthouse and let the doors slide closed. Matthaeus sets the black duffel bag on the floor, unzips it and hands each of the men an automatic rifle. They have suppressors in place, although there’s really no way to muffle that sound. But if all goes to plan, it won’t matter.
An upbeat tune plays in the background as I stare at my own face in the mirrored doors. I make myself look. Make myself see. I wonder if she’ll be scared when she sees me.
My phone buzzes. I reach into my pocket, take it out, scan the text. Cristiano telling me the soldiers are in place, both inside and outside the property. Chopper is on its way, and they’ve secured our exit.
If I can get out.
If.
Because he thinks this is a shit idea.
But no, it’s not if I get out. I have no intention of dying tonight. Not until I’ve killed that fat fuck Petrov. Not until I’ve buried my knife in Felix Pérez’s gut. Not until I have their blood and the blood of anyone else who touched her on my hands.
Then, I can die.
Only then.
He reminds me again of Petrov’s soldiers nearby, the distraction we arranged only giving us minutes inside the suite. He asks one more time if I know what the fuck I’m doing.
I text him a pirate emoji, along with the middle finger, then silence my phone. He’ll be pissed but this is mine. What happened to her happened because of me. What happened to all of them happened because of me. All while I simply walked away.
So, as the elevator approaches the penthouse, I crack my neck and pull my pistol out of its shoulder holster. Then twist the silencer into place and hold the weapon at my side.
Because tonight is the beginning of their end.
Tonight, I take back what they stole.





This book is a continuation of the story of the Grigori family.  You will want to read the duet that comes before this in order to truly understand where Dante is coming from.  Much of the world building takes place in those two books.  This is a truly dark tale about the underworld of the mafia, secret societies and the cartels.  Caught in the middle are innocent young women like Mara. Broken before they even know what true happiness is. 

Dante is on a vengeance trip. He learned about Mara from his new sister-in-law.  He pulls out all the stops to make sure she is safe once again. Dante and Mara's journey is not easy. So very bumpy and they both have a TON of baggage to sort through. 

Loved the twists and turns and the secrets revealed. You will have to jump into this series and find them out for yourself.  Just a fantastic story all around.

Blog Tour & Review: Radge

 

   

  RADGE by Esther E. Schmidt 
  Release Date: September 28th 
  Genre/Tropes: Romantic Suspense/Biker Romance/Mafia Romance/Arranged Marriage   

           



Meribeth - Chaos erupts, causing my parents to force me into an arranged marriage. When I try to coerce circumstances to take a turn, that’s when true mayhem strikes.   

Ramsey - She’s wild, crazy, and a streak of violence runs through her veins. But the headstrong, gorgeous redhead landing right in my lap is the key to executing a plot for vengeance.    


AVAILABLE NOW! 
Other platforms: https://books2read.com/Radge    
    

      

This is my first read by this author. The book kicks off a Seven Knights MC series of books by 7 different authors.  I didn't pay too close of attention to the blurb but was thrilled that this book combined two favorite tropes of MC and Mafia. 

Although the focus of the series seems to be ont he MC guys, Maribeth stole this book! She was fantastic.  A chameleon depending on what setting she was in.  So very loyal and fierce with her family. She is a fighter at heart and has the skills to prove it. 

Ramsey kidnaps Maribeth thinking he will have some leverage over those who killed his father. He was not prepared for the spitfire that lands in his lap. Together, the forge a bond and a plan for revenge comes out of it.  

The story is pretty short but packed with lots of information. We get some set up as to the MC both local and national chapters.  There is  ton of mafia and MC action in this one.  The onlly head scrster for  me was the title.  Both Maribeth and Ramsey have a lust for s good fight or torture.  So radge could be inferred maybe from that. I had assumed Radge was Ramsey's road name, but I actually didn't catch any of the MC with road names.  Just a quirk for me.  

Looking forward to reading the next installment.  Hopefully these two will pop up again for us.

In his 200 years of life, Zayne Lyall has made his share of enemies. The most ruthless of all being Knox Channon, who seeks vengeance for a pack war that took place over a hundred years ago.

To gain information he can use to bring Zayne down, Knox reconnects with Amelie Graye, a past love who joined the Royal pack Zayne belongs to. Unfortunately, Amelie doesn't know much about the royal arctic... despite a longing within her to be near him.

Amelie and Knox have a tumultuous past that ended after she and her family went rogue following an attack by the Sierra pack. While she has no details to offer about Zayne, Knox sniffing around her leaves his inner wolf snarling.

More than anything Zayne wants to charge in and protect the woman his heart aches for. But he has a secret... and it could cost him everything. Amelie is his fated mate. If Knox were to discover this, he would know hurting her would be the key to destroying Zayne. Torn between his desire to claim Amelie as his own and his ferocious passion to protect her, can Zayne find a way to bring down his malicious enemy? Or will an age old vendetta rob him of a blissful future with his bonded mate?

EXCERPT

The door to the cabin opens, and Amelie steps out with her caramel-colored hair in a ponytail and dressed in a tank top and yoga pants. It’s fifteen degrees outside, but the cold doesn’t bother us. The smell of snow approaches, and I can tell it’s going to come down hard within the hour. Looking up at the sky, it’s dark, and the clouds are thick.

Amelie plugs in the Christmas lights on her porch and looks up at them when she gets into the yard. I’ve never seen someone so fascinated with the holidays. But she’d be appalled if she could see my house at Christmas time. I’ve never cared about decorating or celebrating, at least not in the last thirty years after losing Alina. Something tells me I might have to change that. If this is going to work between us, I’ll have no choice but to see things differently. The only problem is that I have no idea how to do that.

Amelie runs through the woods in human form, and I follow behind her, making sure to keep my presence hidden. I’m not ready for her to know I’m there yet. The lake is a few miles into the woods, and her movements are smooth and concise as she swerves in and out of the trees. The only other people I’ve seen move like that are my brothers. She had to have learned it from Micah. I’ve envied him for being so close to her. It’s even made me a little jealous, but I know he’s never tried anything with her. When he comes back to town, things might be a little different. I’m hoping Amelie will let me train her instead of him.

The lake comes into view, and I slow my pace. Amelie stops by the water and blows out a breath, watching the steam billow into the wind. She raises her arms in the air and stretches, exposing her bare stomach as her shirt lifts up. The need in me rises, and I close my eyes. All I can think about is taking her in my arms and making her mine.

“Fuck,” I hiss under my breath. My cock hardens at the thought of her naked and spread out beneath me. Stepping behind the tree, I lean against it to regain my composure. I’m always in control, but around Amelie, I’ve lost all sense of it. Taking a deep breath, I let it out slow until everything goes back to normal. When it does, I unleash my power so Amelie can sense me.





Ahhhh!  Zayne!  I am so happy for him.  He has been in the fringes of all the books and his heart was so broken.  I am thrilled that he gets his HEA. Not that I don't like Amelie too. But Zayne is so deserving of her love. 

This book is part of a series and you could read it as a stand alone but there is history that continues to brew in the background of each book, so it would be best if you read them in order.  I loved how Zayne's family caught on pretty quick about him and his mate. The tough loved him and supported him enough for him to go out on a limb and ask Amelie out.  He was so out of his comfort zone but the end result was perfect. 

There is a bit of danger in this one from past relationships.  The pack all came together once again to make sure everyone was safe.  I love the visions that the newly mated couple get.  Such a neat way to peer into the future without jumping ahead in the timeline.  Great writing style and world building. 

Looking forward to reading more by this author!
