Hot Alphas Lora Leigh, Laurelin McGee, Shiloh Walker, Kate Douglas


What's the book about:
Four sexy short stories featuring four hot alpha heroes, headlined by #1 New York Times bestselling author Lora Leigh. 
In Erin's Kiss by Lora Leigh, ex-Marine Turk has become Erin's sworn protector. The target of her CIA-operative brother's foes, Turk is the only port Erin has to cling to in a storm. He promised her brother long ago never to touch her--but how can he resist a woman who aches to be with him as much as he burns for her? 

In misTaken by Laurelin McGee, Jaylene is an independent woman whose feminist values run deep. The last thing she wants is a man telling her what to do. Until she meets her mysterious new neighbor. He makes her realize that you can still be strong and relinquish control... in the bedroom. But as their passion consumes them, Jaylene isn't sure he is who he says he is. 
In Burn for Me by Shiloh Walker, Tate longs to spend his nights with Ali, a woman he's loved for years. But while Ali's heart aches for him, her head has reservations. Ali knows that Tate has unresolved anger that is a force to be reckoned with...but the heat that blazes between them is undeniable. Now both Tate and Ali are left to wonder: Can love really conquer all? 
In Tangled by Kate Douglas, Nate shows up to work at Tangled Vineyards ready to do what he loves best--craft award-winning wines. But when something better comes in the form of Cassie, the winemaker and former owner, Nate is completely love-drunk. Getting involved with Tangled's mixologist is a bad way to start off a new job, but with Cassie as a temptation, Nate doesn't stand a chance.

My thoughts on the book:
Erin's Kiss by Lora Leigh: Erin is the step daughter to one of the most powerful guys in the security world and she is set to help in the family business and won't take no for an answer and won't take anything from anyone, as a bar tender she has no use for BS. Turk he's in the secret world that protects a bunch of high power people but moon lights in the bar in the mean time and he has no problem putting the people in there place. 
This book was HOT and STEAMY but also kick butt. The storyline was well written and the chemistry was just dripping off the page. 
misTaken by Laurelin McGee: Jaylene is working her dream job as a teacher, when one of her neighbors set her up on a date from hell. She comes home and runs into her HOT new neighbor and knows she needs to know more about this man. Noah moves into a nice neighborhood and sees a really hot girl he would like to have plans with in the bedroom for sure, the problem is he has a secret and he has no intention of telling anyone or ever getting close to anyone and that includes Jay, or does it. Will this secret he's keeping make or break them? This book is hot and steamy not a huge storyline as its a novella but what story there was is good and lots of chemistry and is HOT and STEAMY written all over it.
Burn for Me by Shiloh Walker: Tate has always just wanted a no non since relationship and he knows he has that with Ali, or does he? Ali has two things she wants in life the best life she can offer to his boys and love, the love part has always been tough but she thinks she has it, she only wishes that it wasn't one sided. 
This book was a fun book like the other two the only problem is the end, I was not a fan of the way it ended. There are some twist and turns in this fun book with a little bit of steam right from the start.
Tangled by Kate Douglas:  Mac has found his dream job the last thing he thought he would ever find was his dream girl has he finally found her in Cassie? Cassie, is at a point in her life that she's just not happy about she is really emotionally struggling and is having to face some things she doesn't want to, the last thing she expected was Mac and she knows she needs to stay clear of him he has trouble written all over him. This was a fun read and I think one of my favorite out of the four books. This books keep you on the edge of your seat and keeps you all drawn in.

On ring and a Prayer -Sandra D. Bricker


What's the book about:


In a city where everything is gorgeous and expensive, can Jessie Stanton survive on pennies and prayers?Twelve years of marriage, 4,000 square feet of dream house, and a handsome husband. Jessie Stanton has it all… until one fateful afternoon when she notices her BMW bouncing by the window behind a tow truck. Her husband has gone, and he’s taken it all. The whirling tornado that cuts down the life she’s built drops Jessie onto the sandy beach of Malibu with a thud, penniless and alone. When all she’s left with are the designer labels in her closet and the dreamy Neil Lane rock on her finger, Jessie tries to make ends meet by pawning her prized ring to fund a new business venture: a small shop where her designer duds and shimmering accessories are temporarily leased out to Southern California women with champagne tastes but root beer realities. As Jessie tries to rebuild, she realizes she can’t move on, not without answers. Reluctantly, Jessie turns to beach bum/private investigator Danny Callahan for help. But is she staking her future success and happiness…on a ring and a prayer?

My thoughts on the book:

New starts are never easy; there are lots of bumps in the road that get you to new starts and new chapters. Sometimes you have to just pick yourself up and dust yourself off.  Not everyone can relate with the rich and famous but everyone can relate to being betrayed by someone you love and care for so deeply. Jessie is no different she is strong and seems to have a lot going for her. When her life crashes around her she is forced to come face to face with choice that can’t be easy for most of us. The plot and the storyline literally grab you and draw you from one page to the next and keep you there from the beginning of the book till the very end. With each character you feel like you could be friends or know someone in like that. I have to say hands down I will be telling everyone I know about this book, can’t wait for the rest of the series to come out. This book did not disappoint and you cannot go wrong with buy this book.


My Thoughts on each of the main characters in the book:
  • Daniel- free-spirited fun loving surfer guy with a heart to help others and a love for God
  • Amber-a go-getting risk taker with a lot of love and spirit you just want to be around her
  • Stephanie- (I want to be her when I grow up) she seems like a no non sense person with a lot of value in life and friends
  • Piper- a loyal friend, sweet, loving and full of spirit, a true friend
  • Jessie- head strong lets nothing in life stop her, has a big heart but a broken spirit.
  • Riggs- Friend to everyone a big hearted guy with a lot of spirit, not very vocal about things and life
  • Frank- A fun loving friend who thinks he should be loved and honored by everyone who comes in contact with him and everyone needs to know he is that and will not be ignored. 
  • Grampy- The most loving person with a big heart of gold who wants the best for all in his life but knows that life is not always sunshine and roses.

I love this book, Why the main character struggles to find her worth and struggles with letting go of the past and moving to the feature to find the love of her life. will she take to long to find what she's looking for a loose whats in front of her? All while her best friend has found love. This author gets to the heart of the matter right away as the book is no more the 120 pages or so but the story it self is amazing.

Essence Mackenzie Lucas




What's the book about:

All Haven Jameson ever wanted was to own a little piece of paradise. Now, she does, having established a successful luxury spa in St. Augustine, Florida. But when the property next door is sold to a mega developer and his pro-golf celebrity brother who design trendy, bustling playgrounds for the rich and famous, she fears her dream could slip away. Confronted by her late husband’s infidelity, Haven learns everything she believed about her marriage was a lie; so she finally sets aside her grief and opens her heart to loving the widowed pro-golfer who is her biggest professional competition. In the end, Haven discovers that living a safe, loveless life is far worse than embracing passion and taking a chance on a man who’s vowed never to love again.

My thoughts on the book:

Ok wow where do I begin. This story starts off with two best friends who truly have lost everything and they have fought through life's trials to open their dream spa. As they are getting off the ground the find out that two brothers are buying the land next to theirs for a resort. When Haven finds out more hurt and betrayal and now has to work through the pain.
I liked the story line it draws you in and keeps you to the end of the book not a really dull moment in the book. Lots of steamy moments for sure in the book. I think the only downside I had with the book was all the cursing I think that it could have been just as a good book without a gd coming out of there mouth every time. I would not let that deter you from read a good love story

Inn at Last Chance Hope Ramsay

What's the book about:
Jenny Carpenter is the unrivaled pie-baking champion of Last Chance, South Carolina's annual Watermelon Festival and the town's unofficial spinster. With her dream of marriage and children on hold, she focuses on another dream, turning the local haunted house into a charming bed-and-breakfast. But her plans go off course when the home's former owner shows up on her doorstep on a dark and stormy night . . .

Mega-bestselling horror writer Gabriel Raintree is as mysterious and tortured as his heroes. His family's long-deserted mansion is just the inspiration he needs to finish his latest twisted tale, or so he thinks until he learns it's been sold. The new innkeeper proves to be as determined as she is kind, and soon Gabriel finds himself a paying guest in his own home. As Jenny and Gabe bring new passion to the old house, can she convince him to leave the ghosts of his past behind-and make Last Chance their first choice for a future together?
My thoughts on the book:
I could not get enough of this book. The book is about a teacher who decided to stop teaching and start her dream job of running an inn.  When she is months away from opening things start to get really interesting and at first it goes unexplained. In the mean time the old bittys in town are up to there gossip and matchmaking ways. This book is a book you find your self not wanting to put down there are no downs in this book with every turn of the page it leaves you wanting so much more. When you start to think that the book is going to slow for just a sec think again the book has a twist or a turn coming all the way up to the end of the book. I have to say that I can not wait to read more from this author. I hope you enjoy it just as much as I did.
