<b><u><span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My Opinion</span></u></b><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the first book I've read in months. To be honest, I've been in a bit of a funk with books and haven't had the desire to read anything. However, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to read a new L.P Dover book.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I will admit, the last few books by LP haven't been my favourite. There felt like there was something missing from them and so I was worried in case the trend continued with Off the Ice. However, not only did this book bring me out of my funk, but it felt more like LP's old style which I had grown to love and miss.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I flew through this book in under a day. Meghan and Justin's story captured my attention ad I couldn't put it down. This is by far my favourite book in the series. There were sparks between the characters, and it was cute watching their feelings develop. I especially like the softer side to Justin.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall, I feel this book is my representative of the LP books I class as my favourites. It mimics her style and shows of her talent. Off the Ice was an enjoyable read that I found hard to put down</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’m Justin Davis, all-star center for the Charlotte Strikers. For years, I chased the spotlight, not only with hockey, but through television as well. That’s why I decided to play the bachelor on Rich and Single. Unfortunately, I was stuck with a fake fiancée from hell who I couldn’t stand to be around. Now that our contract is up, I’m allowed to do whatever I want, with whoever I want. I plan to take full advantage of my newfound freedom.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After being on the show, people don’t recognize me for hockey anymore, even with just winning the Stanley Cup for my team. That’s why I’m spending the off season in a remote cabin in Wyoming where the chances of people knowing me are slim. Space is what I need, but when a down to earth beauty needs help on her ranch, I can’t resist. Meghan Taylor is exactly what I’ve been looking for, even though I’m not the kind of man she wants.</span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Getting her to see the real me has its challenges, but the more time I spend with her, the easier it is for her to see that I’m not the same guy she knows from TV. Being away from the media is one thing, but as soon as I’m back in the spotlight, I’m afraid it’ll change what we have. I don’t want to lose her, but I also can’t hide away in Wyoming forever. It’s a choice I’m not ready to make.</span><br />

<span style="color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nikki Elliot is running out of time. After a season and a half of struggling to rebuild her racing career thanks to a near-fatal accident, she is faced with the ugly truth: it’s going to take a miracle for her to make her lifelong dream of racing in Formula 1 a reality. The trouble is, Nikki doesn't believe in miracles. When Fate sends her help in the form of a quiet, sexy mechanic, Nikki realizes that miracles do happen: the ones you hope for and the ones you least expect. But just as things look like they’re falling into place, Nikki discovers that miracles come at a steep price.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Luck has never been on Jake Masercotti’s side. That is until a chance encounter reunites him with his angel—the woman who unknowingly saved his life years earlier. And now that he’s found her, he’ll do whatever it takes to repay her for that gift, even it means risking his life--or worse, his heart--in the process.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Brought together by tragedy years before, and reunited under dangerous circumstances, will Jake and Nikki find love and happiness, even when a danger they never see coming reaches the-redline?</span></span></div>

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It seem forever ago I started this book. When I requested it, the racing element caught my attention. I was slightly sceptical about the female lead being the driver based on how tough racing is to get into as a woman, especially F1, but I was intrigued to see what the author did with it.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the end, Against the Odds has split my opinion. On one hand, I liked the idea and the overall plot. There was a bit of sport, danger, suspense, and romance all tied up in this story and it did hold my interest as I wanted to know how things played out. Nevertheless, it wasn't perfect. Personally, I thought this book needed to be condensed more. Although wanting to know what happened next kept me reading, I frequently found myself wishing the pace would increase and I did skim. At times it felt like I was reading a lot of unnecessary details or filler scenes which slowed the pace. Part 3 was definitely the best and showed the full potential, but I almost didn't make it to the part with all of the action. I will be honest and say I did consider giving up because of the slow pace, since it hindered the flow and the intensity of the relationships. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall though, it was an interesting read. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but not in a bad way. I do think it needs cutting down, but it did pick up towards the end. It had a little of everything. </span><br />

<span style="color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It’s been three years since quarterback Ares Kincaid’s NFL dream came true, and he’s living the high life. The days of cleaning up after his drunk of a father are long gone, and he has no intention of going back.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A car crash and DUI charge meant a lengthy stint in rehab for Arianna Petrelli, and her dream of being a professional artist slips further away when she’s sacked from her position at a gallery. Her need for a job stronger even than her dislike of football, Ari goes to work for her father, the head coach of the New York Giants.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ares hates alcoholics, which is fine with Ari because she thinks he’s a brainless jock. Yet when Ares rescues Ari from a situation with her ex-boyfriend, an unlikely friendship begins – one that quickly becomes more.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But messing around with the coach’s daughter can only lead to one thing…trouble.</span></span></div>
<br /><div>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been dying to get my hands to this book. To be honest, I'm dying to get my hands on any Samantha Towle book. Her writing never fails to grip me and pull me into her worlds, and Rush was no exception. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been in a bit of a reading funk lately, but this book managed to pull me out of it. From the first page it hooked me and I couldn't put it down. How Ares and Ari met made me chuckle and I felt the spark as their relationship developed. I thought as a couple they worked together and there was just the right amount of drama and chemistry to keep things interesting.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall, another really enjoyable read I'd definitely recommend. To be honest, I'd recommend any of Samantha's work and I can't wait to see what she releases next.</span><br />

<strong>From </strong><strong><em>New York Times</em></strong><strong> Bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken, comes ENVY, a new novella in her </strong><strong><em>Eagle Elite Series</em></strong><strong>, brought to you by </strong><a href="http://www.1001darknights.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">1,001 Dark Nights</a><strong>!

</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">From <em>New York Times</em> and <em>USA Today</em> bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken comes a new story in her Eagle Elite series…</span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">
Every family has rules, the mafia just has more….
Do not speak to the bosses unless spoken to.
Do not make eye contact unless you want to die.
And above all else, do not fall in love.
Renee Cassani’s future is set.
Her betrothal is set.
Her life, after nannying for the five families for the summer, is set
Somebody should have told Vic Colezan that.
He’s a man who doesn’t take no for an answer.
And he only wants one thing.
Her.
Somebody should have told Renee that her bodyguard needed as much discipline as the kids she was nannying.
Good thing Vic has a firm hand.</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love this world. I've said it before but I'll say it again, Rachel Van Dyken books are some of my favourites, and the Eagle Elite series is in my opinion the best mafia series out there. I have yet to read a series that beats this one in terms of story and the connections between the characters. Saying that, it'll come as no surprise that I couldn't wait to get my hands on this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Envy lived up to all the previous books in this series. It had it's intense moments, familiar faces, dark sense of humour, and everything else I've come to expect. I felt the connection between Vic and Renee and thought things were paced and developed well considering the novella length. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My only complaint is because it's part of the 1001 Dark Nights set it is a novella. There's nothing wrong with that, and Rachel did a great job of fitting everything into a satisfying package that felt complete, but I'm greedy. And since this is one of my favourite series I wanted more. I always want more from the Eagle Elite world no matter how long a book is.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Overall, this was an enjoyable addition to the series and I hope there will be another book soon!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">My Opinion</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As anyone who follows my blog regularly, I can't get enough of LP's work. As one of my favourite authors, I was excited to read Going for the Hole. The fact that it was a romantic comedy made it all the more appealing since I needed a light-hearted read after uni exams. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, despite all of that, it pains me to say this book didn't live up to what I've come to expect from this author. I'm not sure why, but I struggled to connect with the Ashley and Lucas. I wanted to like them, but it felt like the spark usually present in L.P's couples was missing. Things between them happened too quickly as well. I wasn't sure I believed it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As for the plot, it was a light, easy read. I don't think it lined up with my sense of humour, but that's not to say others won't laugh at it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Overall, it's not my favourite book by this author. However, she has some exceptional reads so it's inevitable there is going to be one book at some point I don't connect with. Despite that I'm still looking forward to what she comes up with next!</div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And you’ll sink right into the hole. That’s my motto both on and off the golf course. The women come in full supply everywhere I go and there are no complaints. Maybe it’s the size of my driver that gets them going. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’m Lucas “Ace” Montgomery, professional golfer and world record holder for the longest drive in golf history. The PGA Tour has been my life, but it’s time for a break. A few relaxing weeks of drinking and golf with friends in Myrtle Beach is what I need. However, when a bright pink ball knocks me out on the course, and a blonde beauty comes to my aid, I expect to see a gallery girl, a.k.a a member of the Party Groupie Association. Trust me, those girls know how to have fun. Although, to my surprise, it’s not what I get at all. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dr. Ashley Locke is beautiful and everything I’d want if I was ever to get serious about someone. Unfortunately, she has no interest in me whatsoever which only makes me want her more. All she wants is to get through her friend’s bachelorette weekend and go back to her life. But after injuring me on the course, I’m not letting her run away so easily. When I want something, I get it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’m not competing for money this time. All I want is to win her heart.</span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Description:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Blaire has never quite gotten over Jessie Beckett, the ex–NFL star whose kisses were hot enough to ignite the entire Eastern Seaboard. When he chose work over her, Blaire was left brokenhearted. Why else would she have married a skeezy two-timer, just to divorce him less than a year later?</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now Blaire is getting even by becoming one half of Dirty Exes, a PI firm fully committed to humiliating cheating jerks. If only the new jerk she’s been hired to uncover wasn’t Jessie Beckett himself.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Exposing Jessie isn’t going to be easy, especially when she still daydreams about his sexy smile. Further complicating matters is Colin, Jessie’s best friend. He’s gorgeous, a little bit cunning, and willing to help Blaire get the inside scoop on Jessie—for a price.</span><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now caught between two men—one totally right and the other totally wrong—Blaire will need to decide just how much she’s willing to risk…and whom she’s willing to risk it for.</span></span></div>
<br /><div>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What can I say that I haven't already about Rachel Van Dyken? There's probably not a lot. I love her work and really can't get enough of it, and Dirty Exes was no exception. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book, but it hooked me from the first page. It was a light-hearted and humorous read that was the perfect break from the stresses of exams. It made me smile, was a little silly, and had some hot moments.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm also glad the characters ended up with who they did. For a moment I thought they might end up in different couples, which I wouldn't have enjoyed so much. But they didn't. Blaire and her guy were a good match. They bounced off each other and worked. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall, another enjoyable read from this author.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The last thing I expected was my ex-boyfriend showing up unannounced, demanding to see our son. The son whose existence he’d previously never bothered to acknowledge, leaving me a single mother at sixteen years old.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As if I’m not freaked out enough, I also have to deal with a loud, annoying new neighbour on top of it all.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Imagine my surprise when I discover my neighbour is none other than Jeremy, my best friend’s dangerously hot brother, who was recently released from prison.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’m sure he’s a complication I definitely don’t need. But then he inserts himself effortlessly into my life, becoming my hero, my saviour, and someone my son can look up to, and I realize how much I actually need him.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But my ex isn’t backing off, making me wonder what he’s capable of—and how far Jeremy will go to keep us safe.</span></div>

<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">My Opinion</span></u></b></div>
<br />This book has me struggling for words. If you follow my blog, you'll already know I've read the previous books in this series and enjoyed them, especially the first two. Because of this I was excited to read Kenzie and the Guy Next Door. Now I've read it though, I can't help but feel it didn't live up to the other books. <br /><br />I'm not sure why, but something about this book just didn't connect with me. The characters felt a bit two dimensional and the story didn't feel like it dug too deep. To be honest, everything felt too easy and events were glossed over. It felt more like a rough outline without the depth I like at certain point, which was a shame considering I've liked this series up until this book. <br /><br />I'm not saying the is a bad read, it's not. However, I've seen better from this author and expected more. If you like easy reads to pass the time that don't dig too deep this might be for you. <br /><br />Overall, it'a not my favourite in the series. I'm not sure if I'll read the next one, but I am curious about Brody (hopefully it's him). I would however definitely recommend books 1 and 2. <br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">

<strong>About MELT FOR YOU</strong></h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>A wallflower gets seduction tips from a playboy athlete—until love changes the rules.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Socially awkward Joellen Bixby has a date every Saturday—with her cat, a pint of ice cream, and fantasies of the way-too-handsome Michael Maddox. She’d give anything to win over the unattainable CEO of her firm, but how can she when she blends in so well with her cubicle? The answer may be closer than she thinks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cameron McGregor is a cocky, tattooed Scottish rugby captain who just moved in next door. He’s not Jo’s type—<i>at all</i>—but the notorious playboy <i>is</i> offering to teach the wallflower everything he knows about inspiring desire. Though a lot of women have rumpled Cam’s kilt, Jo is special. Far from the ugly duckling she thinks she is, in Cam’s eyes she’s sharp, funny, and effortlessly sexy. Now, thanks to him, Jo is blooming with confidence and has the man of her dreams within reach.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfortunately for Cam, he’s just helped to push the woman of <i>his</i> dreams into the arms of another man—and now he’s in the fight of his life to keep this beauty from getting away.</div>

<strong>My Opinion</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><br /></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm quickly coming not to be able to get enough of this author's work. Having discovered her only last year and swiftly reading her back catalogue, I'm left eagerly awaiting each new release. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Melt For You just continued my love of her work. It was an easy-going and positive book that put a smile on my face and kept me hooked. Cam and Joellen had a great connection and I loved the banter between them both. Cam especially captured my heart. He might have looked like a tough rugby player, but inside he was a big marshmallow and I loved him for how he built up Joellen. Together they grew and the chemistry built. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As for the plot, it was sweet, funny, and had the right amount drama. The only small complaint I have is a few loose ends weren't tied up--such as the issues with Cam. I would have liked a bit more resolve on that side of things. Other than that I just loved every second I was immersed in this world. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Overall, Melt For You was another great read. The characters drew me in and I'm sad it's over. I'll be looking out for the next release by this author. </div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />A surprise release by one of my favourite authors. Like, seriously, who could turn that down? I hadn't heard anything about Anonymous until I saw the tour invite, and I will admit I got a stupid grin on my face. <br /><br />Anonymous was a little different from LP's other books. For one, the couple are already married. Second, the focus is much more on the crime than the romance. That doesn't mean there isn't chemistry, though. Jake and Ellie clearly love each other and they had an intriguing story to tell.<br /><br />As for the plot, overall it kept me engaged. Did I guess who anonymous was? Yes. However, that might be down to knowing the set ups and formulas used to write these types of books. It takes a lot for me not to guess a twist having worked in the industry for so long. <br /><br />In general, this was another good read by LP. Like I said, it's a little different from her usual books, but she knows how to tell a captivating story and that translates to this type of read too. <br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">4</span></span><br />

<br />
<b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />I've been dying to read Viktor's story since I read The Healing Touch. He caught my interest then and I will admit I was slightly annoyed--in an impatient way--by the author making me wait to read his story. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed Kade, but this is the book I've been waiting for. <br /><br />After all that waiting, I'm so glad to be able to say it didn't disappoint. From start to finish, the book held my attention and I couldn't put it down. Thanks to this author I'm now behind on work deadlines, but I'd say it was worth it. <br /><br />Viktor was the right amount of tough, but with a gentle and soft side around his family. I loved how he took to Delia, and how gentle he was with her. The love all the Kincaid men have for the women in their lives is evident in spades. I also liked the introduction of Mason. He seems like an interesting character and I think he's taken over my intrigue from Connor. While I'd love to read about both men in their own books, Mason seems a bit more jovial. Although, I am intrigued by Connor's darkness. <br /><br />As for the plot, in general it was well-paced and kept my attention. The only slight downside was the ending all came a bit sudden and I didn't really feel it reached a climax with the danger. The resolution came about a bit too easy in that sense. <br /><br />Overall though, the was a great read and I'd definitely recommend this author's romance work. I can't wait for the next book, no matter who it is written about. <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">4</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So who am I? Well, I’m the crazy girl with an imagination that never shuts up. I LOVE scary movies. My friends laugh at me when I scare myself watching them and tell me to stop watching them, but who doesn’t love to get scared? I grew up in a small town nestled in the southern mountains of West Virginia where I spent days roaming around in the woods, climbing trees, and causing general mayhem. Nights I would stay up reading Nancy Drew by flashlight under the covers until my parents yelled at me to go to sleep.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Growing up in a small town, I learned a lot of values and morals, I also learned parents have spies everywhere and there’s always someone to tell your mama you were seen kissing a particular boy on a particular day just a little too long. So when you get grounded, what is there left to do? Read! My Aunt Jo gave me my first real romance novel. It was a romance titled “Lord Margrave’s Deception.” I remember it fondly. But I also learned I had a deep and abiding love of mysteries and anything paranormal. As I grew up, I started to write just that and would entertain my friends with stories featuring them as main characters.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, I live in small town in WV where I entertain my niece and nephew and watch the cats get teased by the birds and laugh myself silly when they swoop down and then dive back up just out of reach. The cats start yelling something fierce…lol.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love books, I love writing books, and I love entertaining people with my silly stories.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Hardest Fall, an all new tantalizing contemporary romance by Ella Maise is NOW LIVE!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="The Hardest Fall Cover" class=" wp-image-6978 aligncenter" height="400" src="https://thereadreportblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/04/the-hardest-fall-cover.jpg" width="266" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first time you meet someone, you make eye contact. You smile, say hello. Should be simple, if you’re anyone but me. The first time I met Dylan Reed, I found myself making eye contact with a <em>different</em> part of his body. You see, I’m very good at being shy, not to mention extremely well-versed in rambling nonsense and, unfortunately, rather highly skilled at making a fool of myself in front of a guy I’m attracted to.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At the time, I knew nothing about him and thought none of what I said would matter since I’d never speak to him again. Turns out, I was very wrong. He was the star wide receiver of the football team, one of the few players expected to make it into the NFL, and I ended up seeing him all over campus.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I might have also propositioned him, run away from him, attacked him with a cooking utensil…and…uh, maybe I shouldn’t tell you all of it. It’s pretty normal stuff, things you’d expect…from me. Eventually, the time came when I couldn’t hide anymore—not that he’d have let me even if I tried.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before now, he never knew I was secretly watching him. Now that we see each other every day, he knows when I have a hard time looking away. It doesn’t help that I’m not the most subtle person in the world either.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He smiles at me and tells me he finds me fascinating because of my quirks. I can’t even tell him that I think my heart beats differently whenever he’s around.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He thinks we’re going to be best friends. I think I have a big thing for him, and the more I get to know him, the more I don’t care that I’m not allowed to be his friend, let alone fall for him.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The thing is, that’s exactly what I’m doing—what <em>we’re</em> doing, I think.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Falling.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hard.</div>

<br />Ella Maise is a new author to me. In all honesty, it was the cover that drew me to this book. It's a sweet cover and sums the book up well. Once I'd read the blurb, I knew I needed to read The Hardest Fall. <br /><br />This book captured my interest from page one. I started reading it the second it landed on my Kindle, and I kept turning the pages until I realised it was 3 a.m. and I needed to stop since I had to be up at 6 a.m. to travel back home. Not good really. <br /><br />However, the book was worth the lack of sleep. Zoe and Dylan were a cute couple with just the right amount of spark. I loved Zoe's awkwardness. I could relate well to her and it made me giggle. <br /><br />One thing I liked most about this book is the relationship was the focus of the book. The author took time to develop the character before they kissed and even longer before they slept together. I'm getting bored of unnecessary sex scenes in books. They generally feel like padding now, but here they were well timed and added to the relationship which had been built. There weren't too many I ended up skimming, and I believed in the characters' emotions. <br /><br />Overall, for a first time read by a new author I was pleasantly surprised. I'd definitely recommend The Hardest Fall and will have to check out this author's other work. <br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">

<strong> Excerpt:</strong></div>
<div>
I stopped speaking when Dylan’s gloved hand—his <i>huge</i> gloved hand—cupped my cheek and gently tilted my face up. The world around me slowed down, and I stood still. I swear to you, I watched his eyes roam my face in slow motion.</div>
<div>
“I like having your eyes on me, Zoe.”</div>
<div>
I managed to force a nervous smile. His thumb moved on my cheek, rendering me…basically completely helpless.</div>
<div>
Forgetting myself, forgetting where we were, I whispered, “I like watching you.”</div>
<div>
His tongue peeked out and touched his lower lip. “I know.”</div>
<div>
<i>Oh, Dylan, why did you do that?</i></div>
<div>
“I meant I like watching you—<i>liked</i> watching you play tonight. I didn’t mean it to sound like I like watching you when you’re not playing. I definitely wouldn’t watch you if you were just standing there, or I don’t know…I wouldn’t watch you when you’re working out, and I would never watch you if you were—”</div>
<div>
“You know why I like watching you?”</div>
<div>
The question shut me up pretty quickly, which was probably for the best; who knew what else I would spew out.</div>
<div>
“Because I can’t take my eyes away from you. Everything else…it all disappears, and…”</div>
<div>
<i>And… And…</i></div>
<div>
“And?”</div>
<div>
I tried my best not to look eager for his answer—or let’s say not <i>too</i> eager, because there was no way he couldn’t tell I was very interested and invested in hearing what he was about to say.</div>
<div>
He let out a heavy breath and decided not to finish that particular sentence. I’d seen it in his eyes, a slight change, there and gone.</div>
<div>
<i>Goddammit!</i></div>
<div>
</div>

<strong>About Ella</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I’m a big dreamer. And that’s how it all started for me, really. Reading and dreaming. I love nothing more than to escape real life to find those very few magical moments in a book. I love how it has the power of stealing your worries away, putting a smile on your face even when smiling is the last thing on your mind. Crushing on fictional characters is also another bonus. Through my words, if I can manage to make even one-person smile, it means I’ve done my job well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Writing became my world and I can’t imagine myself doing anything other than creating new characters and telling their stories. You know how some things simply makes your heart burst with happiness? A really good book, a puppy, hugging someone you’ve been missing like crazy? That’s what writing does to me. And all the hard work, all the sleepless nights, all the anxiety that comes with publishing…everything is worth it at the end.</div>

My ex-boyfriend’s cousin’s bed, to be exact. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Huge mistake. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nate and I agreed it wouldn’t happen again. We didn’t want to hurt Brody. Only it did happen, repeatedly, until I finally found the courage to walk away. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I couldn’t ignore the temptation, and I soon found myself back in his bed—or on his floor—stealing secret kisses and forbidden touches, sneaking around behind everyone’s backs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I tried so hard to resist Nate’s charms, but my resolve crumbled. How could I not be swept off my feet by water towers in the rain and deep confessions on the beach? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
</span><div>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The last thing we want is to hurt anyone, but it is out of our control. And there isn’t a thing I can do except give him my heart and hope he keeps it safe…regardless of the consequences.<br />
<br />
<b><u>My Opinion</u></b><br />
<b><u><br /></u></b></span>I found these books and this author through a Kindle Unlimited free trial last month. Having enjoyed the first two, I was excited to request and get a hold of Harper's story. <br /><br />For the most part, this book had everything I expected from the first two. The tight-knit group of characters felt as strong as ever and there were laughs and heartbreak along the way. <br /><br />Harper and Nate were a cute couple. Their story did hold my attention and it was a sweet romance. However, I did feel it took too long for everything to happen. The sneaking around is fine to a point, but it hindered the chemistry once things got past 50% and the characters were still doing the same things. Something bad is inevitable at that point and I questioned the characters' intelligence. <br /><br />Moreover, it meant too much happened in the end and too fast. Like I said, for the most part I enjoyed this book, but then it ended all of a sudden and let me down. I don't think the ending gave enough satisfaction and resolution. I felt there were a lot of scenes missed out I would have liked to see before the epilogue. For example seeing Audrey, more with Brody, stuff like that. In places this book didn't feel fully fleshed out and it left a lot of lose ends that were only given a couple of sentences to sum them up, which isn't satisfying. <br /><br />Overall, I did enjoy this book, but the ending ruined it for me. It's still a good series, but I think the other two books were better.</span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Description:</b></span></span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One wouldn’t expect a sexy-as-sin rocker like Eli Renard to spend time with a woman just as a friend, but that’s exactly what Emersyn Wallace is to him. Just a friend. Even though she’s matured into a beauty, Eli still doesn’t remotely see his childhood pal as a sex-object. When tragedy brings her back into his world, Eli moves mountains to help Emersyn get back onto her feet by finding her a job as a backup singer for Jacob’s Ladder. At first, Eli is thrilled that Emerysn is along on tour, and he sets out to do his best to help her forget her sorrow through a range of crazy friend dates. But after spending so much time with her in such close quarters, Eli finds his feelings beginning to shift. He no longer sees Emersyn as the once awkward young girl he played some of his first songs with. Soon it’s not only his body that reacts to her, but it’s also his heart. He’s about to learn what a dangerous game it is to dry a widow’s tears.<br /><br />After losing her husband and singing partner in a tragic accident, Emersyn Wallace spent the last eight months drowning in a sea of grief. With the bills piling up and her family and friends concerned about her emotional welfare, she reluctantly agrees to join the Jacob’s Ladder’s tour. While recapturing her lost love of singing and performing, she finds both comfort and healing in Eli’s gregarious personality and outrageous sense of humor. But as the anniversary of her husband’s death approaches, she finds herself in turmoil over her new amorous feelings for Eli.<br /><br />Can Eli and Emersyn find the perfect melody to transition from friends to lovers, or will their relationship end out of tune?</span></div>

<div>
<span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: purple;">I adore best friend to lovers books so this book caught my eye immediately. It took me a while to get around to reading it, since I had so many other books on my tbr pile, but finally I managed it.<br /><br />Jacob's Ladder was a sweet read. I liked that the author didn't go down the traditional bad-boy musician route. Instead, Eli was a genuinely good guy and an even better friend. He was there for Emersyn through everything and I liked him. Together they made a sweet couple. I will admit that I didn't completely connect with them or their story. It was a nice read, but I felt distanced from it like there was that something extra too pull me in missing.<br /><br />Overall though it was a pleasant read. For the most part, it was an easy and sweet romance.<br /></span><div style="text-align: center;">

Author Bio:<br /><br /><br />Katie Ashley is a New York Times, USA Today, and Amazon Best-Selling author of both Indie and Traditionally published books. She lives outside of Atlanta, Georgia with her daughter, Olivia, and her spoiled mutt, Duke. She has a slight obsession with Pinterest, The Golden Girls, Shakespeare, Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Scooby-Doo.<br /><br />With a BA in English, a BS in Secondary English Education, and a Masters in Adolescent English Education, she spent eleven years teaching both middle and high school English, as well as a few adjunct college English classes. As of January 2013, she hung up her red pen and expo markers to become a full-time writer. Each and every day she counts her blessings to be able to do her dream job.<br /><br />Although her roots are firmly planted in the red Georgia clay, she loves traveling the country and world to meet readers and hang out with fellow authors. When she’s not writing or chasing down her toddler, you might find her watching reruns of The Golden Girls, reading historical biographies, along with romance novels, or spending way too much time on Facebook.</span><div style="background-color: white; font-size: small;">

<span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">You know the
universe is trying to tell you something when you get struck by lightning, but
only after getting hit on by the elderly, almost getting run over by a semi,
and running into the one who got away.<br />
Why do they say it like that anyway?<br />
Like I accidentally lost her when she was the one that got in the car with my
best friend and left me.<br />
The day after I proposed.<br />
We were eighteen.<br />
I wanted forever.<br />
She didn't.<br />
It's been ten years.<br />
I tried to move on, tried to get married, had that same wedding crashed by my
now best friend who says the only way for me to stop pissing off the universe,
is to gain closure with the one woman I can't forget.<br />
So I do it.<br />
I embark on a journey down memory lane that not only lands me in prison but on
the receiving end of a fist fight in front of the entire town, this naturally
happens after drunken pool sex, climbing the same girl's window, and getting
threatened at gunpoint by her father.<br />
To say the universe is trying to tell me something anything, is a giant
understatement.<br />
I just hope I survive the message.<br />
And then, I hope I survive her—again.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: purple;">Oh I've missed Max's special brand of crazy. If you've read any of the other books in this series you'll know who and what I'm talking about.<br /><br />I've been waiting for Jason's story for what seems like forever. These books are some of the funniest I've read, and I just love the chaos in them. The Consequences of Rejection was no different. I sat reading with a stupid grin on my face and I couldn't put it down.<br /><br />Seriously, what more could you want from a book?<br /><br />This story brightened up a cold snowy day. It's hard to explain this series, but if you like slapstick comedy, quirky characters, and romance then you'll probably enjoy them. If you've read the others you'll know what to expect and this book just continues the crazy. I loved every second and will miss Max.<br /><br />Overall, Jason and Maddy's story rounded off the series nicely. I would definitely recommend the series.</span><div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Full breasts spilled over into a small black bikini that
left nothing to the imagination, it barely covered nipple for that matter, and
the bottoms? Well she had to keep adjusting them lets just say high school
bathing suits ten years later look small. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">In the best way possible. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Head held high she walked right by me to Max, grabbed a
shot, took it, then sucked the lime he held out in front of her. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I growled. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Max winked at me. “Something wrong, man?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I reached for the non existent gun at my side, which just
made him grin harder as he kept handing out alcohol to parents of
toddlers. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Because thats the type of party it was. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Almost everyone started talking about their kids,
retirement, stock portfolios, vacation time, and babies. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">It was almost too depressing for words. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I had all those things but what I’d always wanted. A family.
Babies. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Maddy. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">She shared a sideway’s glance with me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I reached for her, but she pulled away and ran full speed
towards the pool and did a giant canon ball. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">People cheered. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">While I watched as wet cold water ran down her curvy body,
my gaze was so tranfixed on her erect nipples I’m surprised nobody pulled me
aside about my current situation of arousal. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Cold water. Fast. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I chased after her, jumped in. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">And felt the warm buzz of alcohol fill my veins just as I
popped up and saw Max follow, balls first, in my face. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I ducked just in time so I didn’t get a fist full of
balls. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">The guy only laughed once we both popped up. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I swam towards Maddy, and tugged her against me. “Stop
running.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">“I’m not.” Her breath came out raspy. “I’m just…reliving old
times, isn’t that what you wanted? So we could have closure?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Why did it feel like she was turning the tables on me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">“Yeah,” I said slowly, “But—“<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Her kiss was swift. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Hard. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Fast, and oh so very punishing as I gaped into her mouth and
pinned her against he side of the pool. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Music filled the air out of nowhere from somewhere outside,
it pounded into my ears the way I wanted to pound into her. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I grinned against her mouth as she wrapped her legs around
my waist. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">And then Reid cast a shadow over us and started pouring
vodka over our heads. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Maddy tilted her head back and opened her mouth while I
leaned in and licked it off her chin. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">People cheered. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">“Guys!” Someone yelled. “Keep it down, someones going to
call the cops!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">“Cops?” Max laughed loudly. “I am the law, bitches!” The
music blared. “Plus, we already got our cop here.” He pointed while I took
another shot. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">People cheered. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><i>My Opinion</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><i><br /></i></b></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">My opinion is split on this book. On one hand I really wanted to like it. It did hold my attention, and it was something a little different. However, on the other, I can't help but feel a little disappointed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">To start with the good, it was the idea of a hit girl which caught my attention. Having read Tia's work before, I was intrigued to see what she did with the story. In general, this book did keep me intrigued. I liked the relationship between Molly and Joshua, and I did feel a connection between them. Hit Girl started off strongly like I expected, and that's where my problem comes in.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">For me, this book wasn't what I was expecting. It started off like I thought it would, but then the plot drifted from that almost completely. It wasn't as dark as I thought it would be, and it also seemed the plot and characters weakened as the book went on. Molly especially. I felt her character was a little inconsistent.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">As for the ending, it all felt a little too easy and there wasn't enough detail to back up the easiness of everything. It felt like that author barely skimmed the surface. It all happened a little too quickly for my liking too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Overall, this isn't my favourite read by this author. I still think her Prince and the Player series is by far a lot better. However, Hit Girl may be worth a go if the blurb interests you.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">I was drawn to this book because of the sports element. While ice hockey isn't a big thing in the UK and I have no idea what the rules are except for get the puck in the goal, I love sports romances. And from the blurb, this sounded like one I'd enjoy and overall I did.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Breakaway kept me hooked and engaged. It started off strong and I felt for Stevie and Mark. I liked Stevie's integrity at the beginning and the fact the author didnt turn her into a cheat. However, I did feel the connection between the two of them and I wanted them to get together.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">However, while I enjoyed it, there were two things that bugged me. First was it just didn't seem to go anywhere. The story was nice and a sweet romance, but it didn't feel like it had much depth. Second, the end kind of fizzled out. I did find myself skimming a bit more as the last few chapters progressed since the resolve came too easily.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">These weren't major issues. Like I said, it made Breakaway more of a sweet read. But I do think the start was better than the end.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Overall, it was an enjoyable read. For the most part it held my interest and I enjoyed the sports element.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

But she’s calling the shots.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’m Maddox Ledger, all-star winger and the reason the Charlotte Strikers killed it in the playoffs. Yeah, the tabloids like to call me arrogant. A real hothead. All I see is a guy who plays to win. Wreaking havoc on the ice, breaking a few hearts—that’s all just part of the game. And I’m sure as hell not sitting on the bench.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When my teammate asks me to be in his wedding party, I can’t refuse. Lucky for me, the bridesmaid I’m paired with is the definition of eye candy, but she’s so much more than that. Lacey Easton is totally irresistible and she makes me want to be a better man. A glimpse of bare shoulder takes me back to a steamy, two-week Vegas tryst I can’t forget. One I’m eager to repeat.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Suddenly our one-night stand is turning into the sequel. Still, Lacey’s keeping secrets. She doesn’t trust me. And maybe I deserve it. But I know more than she thinks I do and there’s no chance I’m letting her get away—or letting another guy take what is mine. This time, I’m playing for keeps.</span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Opinion</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">I think this has to be my favourite book in this series so far. I'll be honest and say I did consider not requesting it. Although I enjoyed the last two books, I haven't connected with LP's hockey players as much as her other characters. They aren't my favourite books by her, but since she is one of my favourite authors I couldn't resist ... and I'm glad Maddox pulled this series back for me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Playmaker kept me up until 1:30am. I didn't realise how much time had gone by while I was reading it. I would have kept reading too had by kindle not died with three chapters left!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Anyway, the story kept me hooked and Maddox and Lacey were two people I could easily read about. Maddox wasn't what I expected, but I liked his tender side. I could also feel the connection between the two of them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">The only small complaints I have are sometimes things happened and decisions were made too quickly. I enjoyed the plot but sometimes it felt rushed. Also, I spent the majority of this book waiting for a dramatic big reveal only to have it fizzle out and not even show everyone's reaction to the news (I know that's vague. It'll make sense of you read this book). Normally, I wouldn't mind not being shown, it was just the book spent a long time setting up this drama between Maddox and Dallas. It was slightly disappointing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">I'm also not a fan of the covers. They don't seem to tie together or match, but that's not the author's issue and it doesn't affect the contents.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Overall though, I enjoyed this more than the previous two books. It kept me hooked and now I need to catch upon my missed sleep!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“And we’ll be right back,” Maddox announced, grabbing my wrist.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He pulled me away, and I went willingly with him. I glanced back at Braeden and he started toward us, but I shook my head, stopping him midstep. Maddox turned the corner, his eyes burning like fire.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“I thought I could get through this, but I can’t. I’m so fucking tired of the lies. I know who you are, Lacey.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My heart stopped. I pretended to be stupid. “Of course, you know who I am. Stop being silly. We need to get back to the wedding.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He stepped closer, caging me against the wall, with his lips so close to mine. “No,” he growled low. “I mean, I know who you are . . . Paige.” Keeping his eyes on mine, he glided a hand down my bare back and reached inside my dress, circling his fingers around my strawberry birthmark. My whole body broke out in chills. “Did you seriously think I wouldn’t recognize you?”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Took you long enough,” I snapped.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Oh, I knew who you were right after you left me in Vegas.” My mouth dropped. “Yeah, that’s right, sunshine. A well-paid private investigator can find out anything.”</span></div>

<strong>About CITY UNDER SIEGE</strong></h3>
London is a city in flames. Tensions are high and a critical situation is about to go from bad to worse. The Prime Minister wants to send a message, and the SAS will be the ones to deliver it.
Emotional detachment is my specialty. I’m ruthless and cut throat, but there is nobody better.
Sarah Tatem is an innocent. Caught up in a world in which she doesn’t belong, and trying desperately to do the right thing. My job is to keep her safe long enough to get what’s needed, and bring an end to this siege of terror.
But something has changed. I’ve learned that the only thing stronger than loyalty is love, and now she’s gone.
My name is Lieutenant Tom Harper, and I’m about to unleash hell.

<span style="font-size: large;"><b> My Review</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
As you all know, The Hurricane and The Aftermath were two of my favourite reads a couple of years back. Therefore, I couldn't wait to get my hands on a new R.J. Prescott book. Especially one about the SAS.<br /><br />As soon as I saw the cover for City Under Siege, I needed to have it. And it's safe to say it didn't disappoint. Filled with action, danger, and chemistry, this book kept me hooked from start to finish.<br /><br />There was definitely sparks between Tom and Sarah. Although this isn't a conventional relationship and they don't do all that many coupley things, it's easy to feel the chemistry and heat between them. I especially felt the depths of their emotions towards the end.<br /><br />I won't say anything about the plot other than it held my attention and was well developed. I did think the ending could have used a couple of extra chapters to make it a bit more gradual and satisfying, but it did tie up loose ends like I wanted.<br /><br />Overall, another great read by this author. Con still holds a special place in my heart but I'd definitely recommend this.<div>

<strong>Read an excerpt from CITY UNDER SIEGE</strong></h2>
I was practically kneeling in front of the screen as I tried to understand what I was seeing. Men were shouting at one another, though their words were indecipherable.
The person filming darted out from behind a shipping container to take more shots. Everything was happening so fast, the camera moving wildly with the person it was attached to. Finally, I realised it was a body cam by the way it was flailing and jerking all over the place. I had no idea what shipyard they were in, but it made sense that the assault would be there rather than a boat. They would have wanted to take the terrorists after the handover happened, just to be sure.
A soldier came into shot across the way, crouched behind another container, and I guessed he was one of ours. Covered from head to toe, it was impossible to know who it was, but I held my breath anyway. The camera at least became steady as the gunfire slowly ebbed, though focused now on the last of the targets. In the periphery of the screen, the kneeling soldier leant further forward to take a shot when he was yanked sharply backwards in a move that literally saved his life. As the last shot rang out, sounding a death knell to the terrorists who’d been responsible for taking so many innocent civilian lives, the rest of the team seemed to realise what I already knew. The rescuer, the guardian angel who’d ripped his teammate away from the path of certain death, had exposed himself to make the ultimate sacrifice, saving his friend’s life at the expense of his own. Soldiers darted in front of the camera again, and a few more indistinguishable voices called out before the silence. The excruciating, insufferable, tormenting silence, broken only by the clear voice that cut through the darkness like a scythe, ripping a hole through my heart as it did.
“Man down.”<br />

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2299825096">5 of 5 stars</a><br />
<br />
I didn't think it was possible, but Toad surpassed Butterfly--and I really loved Butterfly. I knew I would love this book before I picked it up though. It's about Nate, and I loved Nate in book 1.<br />
<br />
I'm so glad Cambria managed to keep Nate's personality true to what was in Butterfly. He was quirky, random, cute, and just pure awesomeness. I loved his odd mind and his easy-going nature. He wasn't the typical hero, but he's one of my favourites. I could relate to him and felt for him.<br />
<br />
I won't say anything about the plot other than it was great. Mostly, this book is about Nate--he makes it. If you loved him in Butterfly you'll be hooked on Toad.<br />
<br />
Definite must read!

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2263110725">5 of 5 stars</a><br />
<br />
I didn't think Cambria would be able to top her Hashtag series. In fact I was going to wait to read this because I didn't want to feel disappointed. Don't ask me why I thought I would be. I have no idea. <br />
<br />
Anyway, in the end I saw the cover reveal for Toad and I couldn't resist reading Butterfly. It definitely didn't disappoint and I think this is my new favourite Cambria Hebert book. <br />
<br />
Butterfly was sweet, cute, funny, real, and an all-round great read. It held my attention the entire way through and put a smile on my face. I loved how Stark and Violet bounced off each other and it was just an easy romance to watch and fall in love with. There was about the right amount of drama, but for the most part it remained lighthearted and enjoyable. I couldn't put it down. <br />
<br />
Overall, I'm so looking forward to Toad. Nate was a great character and I hope he lives up to what he was in Butterfly. I'd highly recommend this read.

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you've followed my blog for any length of time you know this is one of my all-time favourite series and it just keeps on giving.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eulogy was everything I wanted it to be and come to expect. From the first page it hooked me until I couldn't put it down. It was great to be back in the mafia world, hearing the thoughts of so many past characters. Eulogy was carefully organised by who told what part and I enjoyed the numerous POVs.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I won't go into specifics about plot. The Eagle Elite series are books you need to experience, and in my opinion if you don't you're missing out. If you've read them them you'll know what to expect and Eulogy won't disappoint. If you haven't, you need to start!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall another excellent addition to the series. I hope this isn't the end!</span><br />

<br />
I've enjoyed this series, but I don't think book 2 or 3 lived up to Touch Me Not. Don't get me wrong, I liked The Healing Touch and I got through it in a day. It kept me entertained and I liked some of the flirty banter. However, in comparison to book 1, it wasn't the same for me. Overall though it was a good series and I'm interested in the spin-off series coming soon.

<br />
This was another great read by Rachel Van Dyken. It was exactly what I needed as i recovered from an annoying January cold. Cheater's Regret made me chuckle, kept me engaged, and i couldn't put it down. I loved the connection between the characters and the banter that flowed back and forth. It was broken up with a few more angsty or emotional moments, but for the most part it was a light-hearted read.<br />
<br />
I can't wait for the next RVD release!

A quick easy read. I raced through When We Touch in a matter of hours. It held my attention well and kept me entertained. I still prefer her Prince and the Player series, but this was a good second chance romance.

<br /><div>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u>My Opinion</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I never quite know what I'm going to get with this author. I have loved her previous work, but I've also been disappointed by some titles. It's a bit hit or miss and I seem to only have extremes when I read Martinez's work: love or hate. Thrive finally seemed to break that pattern.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While I didn't hate this book, I didn't love it either, not like I loved Transfer or The Darkest Sunrise. Thrive held my attention, but I felt it was only an okay read. It didn't really draw much of an emotional response for me. I also didn't like the main characters very much. Don't ask me why, I don't know. There was just something stopping me from connecting to Mira and Jeremy.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As for the plot, I liked the idea but I got a bit lost towards the end. Maybe I noticed it more because I've read four outstanding books by this author so I know how good she can be, but the story and writing felt a bit disjointed in Thrive.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall, I've read better books by Martinez. It wasn't a bad read but when compared to the tear-jerkers I've read by her in the last few years then it's hard to forget. I'd recommend it if you like this author but if your new to this author then I'd recommend the series aforementioned more.</span><br />
