Hot Rock by Annie Seaton

Special $0.99 Introductory Price!


Megan Miller is on a dream trip to research her doctoral thesis at a rock festival in England. When she arrives in town she’s stunned that her temporary neighbor is the spitting image of her 70’s rock idol, too bad he’s also a world-class jerk. So why can't she stop thinking about him?

Seventies rock star Davy Morgan is a man with a secret: rockin’ in one time and living in another. He holds his privacy close to his heart, so when a beautiful girl who not only loves but truly understands his music moves in next door, he works overtime to keep her at a distance. Easier said than done.

Megan follows Davy to the rock festival, but it’s not what or when it seems. The lure of the music draws them closer, but can their newfound love span across the decades, or will it get lost in time?









Pan's Conquest by Aubrie Dionne

Special $0.99 Introductory Price!

Syrinx pulled a fast one on Pan to escape his raging lust. The God of Chastity wasn't about to break her vows and succumb to his temptations. Transported to the twenty-first century, she runs a florist shop—fulfilling her fake, mortal life. Until the breathtaking Parker Thomas hires her to decorate his grand estate for a gala. Five hundred roses? Easy enough. Except Parker makes her feel things she can't ignore...

As the God of Fertility, Pan is used to maidens flocking in droves to his pastures. So when Syrinx denies him, he's determined to win the one that got away. He poses as a mortal to get close to her, but he doesn't count on falling hard for his conquest—hard enough to make a life and stay.

But Syrinx is falling in love with a man that doesn't exist. Can Pan hide his identity forever, or will the truth tear them apart?

All caught up with reviews-now what????

 
 
 
This week is school vacation week here in Massachusetts.
 
For me the week means work as little as possible, read/review as little as possible,
spend time with my kids as much as possible!
 
Easy to do with day after day of snowstorms, we have caught up on movies, baked goodies, cleaned bedrooms, played board games, and well, we are all pretty much sick of each other and it's only Wednesday!
 
Momma was looking for a good book to read and I thought I would share what I found.
A new to me author of an incredible series (so far-I just started reading them) called...
 
H.O.T.
short for
Hostile Operations Team
The author, Lynne Raye Harris!
 
I needed something hot to keep me warm during this cold, snowy week and the covers alone will do just that!
 
 
 
Hot Pursuit
Hostile Operations Team, Book 1
 

The last man she ever wanted to see…
Evie Baker’s luck just ran out. Thanks to an ex-partner with organized crime ties, she’s lost her restaurant, her money, and nearly all her self-respect. Forced to return to her hometown and work as a shampoo girl in her mother’s salon, she doesn’t think her luck can get any worse.
But then someone starts shooting at her, her sullen baby sister is suddenly missing, and the high school heartthrob who stole her heart—and her virginity—is the only man big enough and bad enough to help.
Might be the only one who can save her…
Captain Matt “Richie Rich” Girard can’t afford to get involved. He’s already on the verge of a court-martial after a Top Secret op gone wrong, and he’s been ordered to stay out of trouble while he’s home for his sister’s wedding.
But when Evie’s ex-partner turns up dead, staying out of trouble is the last thing on Matt’s mind. He failed Evie once before; he can’t fail her again. If he’s going to protect her from a killer, and find her sister before time runs out, he’ll have to risk his entire future—and both their lives—to do it.
Things are about to get HOT in the bayou!





Hot Mess
 
Hostile Operations Team, Book 1.5
 

English professor Dr. Georgeanne Hayes has a problem. Her star pupil, an Army sergeant who works in a Top Secret government program, is missing—and someone tried to push her in front of a train last night.
Sam “Knight Rider” McKnight is used to looking out for Georgie. When they were kids, she was just his best friend’s baby sister. But Georgie’s not a baby anymore and Sam is getting some very male—and very dirty—thoughts about the girl he knows he can never have.

When someone threatens Georgie’s life again, Sam will do anything necessary to keep her safe. Even if it means spending the next few days locked up in a remote house on Maryland’s Eastern Shore with her.
Sam might be used to denying himself what he wants, but he’s about to find out that being cooped up with Georgie will push him to the limit. And maybe beyond.


A Hostile Operations Team novella, complete at 33,000 words. Spicy!

But as time runs out and the snow piles up, can Billy and Olivia work together to thwart a lethal plot against the Pentagon without getting involved again?

Excerpt:

As Trevor helped Lila up the porch steps, she wrapped her arms around his neck and brushed her lips against his jaw. She hadn't taken her hands off him since they'd left Tate's.

"I love to feel your stubble." She ran her fingers along his cheek. "It's sexy."

"Keys?" He held out his hand and waited as she dug through her bag. She had him rock hard and ready to go. The fact that she'd rested her hand on his thigh the whole ride home hadn't helped matters. It was the alcohol lowering her inhibitions, but that didn't make it any easier not to respond.

"Here they are." She dropped them into his hand. "Come inside with me."

He opened the door and led her into the foyer. As soon as he let her go, she stumbled forward. He caught her by the waist and pulled her against him. He couldn't take his eyes away from her lips.

"Do you want to kiss me?" Her warm breath caressed his mouth.

More than you know.

"Let me help you upstairs. I don't want you to fall down the steps." He scooped her up and carried her to the staircase. She was so light and dainty. She was still his perfect fit.

"You didn't answer my question." She placed soft, open-mouth kisses along his neck as he made his way to her old bedroom. He remembered sneaking up those steps many times, while her father slept down the hall. They still creaked, but this time he didn't have to worry about getting caught.

"Of course I want to kiss you." He pushed the door open with his shoulder and set her down by the bed.

She closed her eyes and leaned into him. He swiped the hair from her face, took her chin between his fingers, and placed a chaste kiss on her lips.

She opened one eye and peered at him, waiting for more. "That's it?" Disappointment flooded her beautiful features.

"For tonight." He tapped the tip of her nose with his finger. "I want you to remember when I kiss you."

"I'll remember." She wrapped her arms around his neck. "You're not easy to forget."

He pried her arms from his body. "Believe me, I want to, but not tonight."

"Why?"

"Because four hours ago you ran away from me," he said. "Something made you run. Tell me why." He may not have wanted to take advantage of her physically while she was intoxicated, but he didn't see why he couldn't let her drunken lips tell him what she was afraid of.

"I can't."

"You can't what?" He needed to know what she thought about the two of them.

"I'm tired now." She lifted her dress over her head and tossed it in the corner of the room. She stood before him in nothing but her white push-up bra and matching lace thong.

"Hell." He couldn't take his eyes off her toned, tanned body. He mindlessly licked his lips when he discovered her rose-colored nipples poking through the thin, silky material of her bra. Struggling with himself, he tried not to lower his gaze. He lost the battle as he greedily took in her scantily covered sex.

"Want to kiss me now?" She ran her fingers down her neck and over her breasts. "Want to touch me like this?" She moved her hand down her stomach and to the waistband of her panties.

He stepped closer to her and grabbed her wrist. He had to get her to stop or he'd lose all control.

"You want to do it?"

NABBED IN NEW ZEALAND - CHRISTINE EDWARDS -Review & Giveaway



 


Nabbed in New Zealand by Christine Edwards

Description:


Taking a break from her job at an art gallery in Charleston, South Carolina, Valla Denier escapes on a week-long camping tour of New Zealand with a small group of companions and two skilled guides. Valla is enchanted by the wild beauty of the South Island and Kaikoura Beach, as well as the local men. After catching the eye of a rugged, drop-dead-gorgeous man in a café, she is shocked to run into him later that evening at a karaoke bar. Setting her shyness aside, she serenades the stranger with a seductive tune. She never imagines the lyrics would be taken literally.

Later that evening, Valla is taken from her campsite and wakes up in a strange room. Her captor is the man from the bar, Brocan Judge, a six foot five wall of muscle with piercing, cobalt blue eyes. He is not responsible for her abduction; his friend has delivered Valla as a gift, and repairing the situation is not as simple as it sounds.

Valla soon learns that Judge is a Dom, intent on punishing her for her willful ways. Even more surprising is Valla’s reaction to him. When he offers her the choice to stay or leave, she must decide how far down the submissive path she is willing to travel. But trust has never been Valla’s strong suit. Will she be able to set aside her inhibitions and give in to the strong hand she has secretly craved, or will doubt trump her growing desire?



Review:

Nabbed in New Zealand is a steamy, fun read! Judge is written as an incredibly alpha Dom, who also happens to be very hot. (cold shower may be needed after reading) Valla is in need of "letting go" and Judge seems to be just the man to help her do just that!

The storyline is great, the sex scenes ultra hot, and the characters are fun! Now where can I find a guy like Judge???

I have enjoyed all of Christine Edwards hot & steamy books in this series.

Valentine's Day Gift Hop-Hosted by Skye Warren

 
 
 
Welcome to the Valentine's Day Gift Hop as we celebrate love, sex, and all things books! The grand prize will be a Kindle Paperwhite and digital new adult romance basket. Every comment on every blog in the hop will count as an entry toward either of the grand prizes.
 
 
 
 
 
Thank you to Skye Warren for hosting this awesome hop!
 
 
 
 
Each participating blog (there are over 150 of them) is also offering a book related prize.
So, after checking out my stop, hop on over and see what the other blogs are giving away for a Valentine's Day treat!
 
My giveaway, you ask????
I am cleaning out my swag closet!
I have 4 fabulous books and tons of great swag from fantastic authors!
(due to shipping costs-open to US residents only)
 
Alchemytic by Anton Strout
Stonecast by Anton Strout
Darkness Risisng by Keri Arthur
The Shadow Reader by Sandy Williams
swag from various authors such as Cherry Adair, Clara Bayard, & many more
 
 
 
Valentine's Day is coming, you walk into any store and find candy, flowers, cards & stuffed animals. Not really my idea of showing love. Not the kind of gifts I personally want to get from my guy.
 
After 25 years together, 18 years of marriage, 4 kids, our jobs, and everyday life, I want something different! I just want to spend an evening together. I want an evening of adult conversation, I want an evening of no whining & complaining, I want an evening with no talk of work, kids, bills, or any other kind of everyday drama.
 
This is what I told my guy a few weeks ago. Taking my request to heart, he has arranged for the kids to stay overnight at various households, made dinner reservations at a fabulous steak house, invited another couple to join us for the evening (dinner & drinks only-get your mind out of the gutter) So in return, I went shopping. I was inspired by a paragraph in a book I read recently. I purchased a very sexy outfit (for after dinner) and a few toys to try out too. This is my ideal Valentine's Day celebration!
 
 
My question to you....What is your ideal way to celebrate Valentine's Day? Are you expecting a night out/a night in? A specific gift? What are you doing in return for your significant other? If no significant other is available-then what is your dream celebration?
 
Please leave your answer in the comments below. Your comment is your entry for not only my giveaway, but will be counted as an entry for one of the grand prizes available from Skye Warren!

The Fine Line by Alicia Kobishop-review




 
 
The Fine Line
 
by Alicia Kobishop
 



Blurb:

High school senior Liv Evans has one rule: No attachments. She’s lost enough in her life and has vowed to do whatever it takes to make sure she never again feels the emptiness of losing someone she loves. Boys are a fun distraction, but a serious relationship is something she’d rather live without. Her determination for a future free of pain and heartbreak is put to the test when she meets–and quickly forms an unexpected bond–with Logan Tanner.

Logan has always been a free spirit, but ever since a life-changing event took place, which left him doubting the integrity of those who are closest to him, he’s taken that term to a whole new dangerous level. Learning the hard way that life is too short for worries or work–and that women can’t be trusted–Logan has exchanged steady work for street racing. When Liv walks into his world, everything he thought he knew about life and women is challenged.

In The Fine Line, Liv and Logan will discover if it’s possible for true love to have a future, or if history is destined to repeat itself.

Review:

What a great book! Liv's tragic past effects her relationships and the way she handles everything she does. Logan is a risk-taker, who had to grow up real fast. Logan wants more than friendship from Liv, but will she give Logan a chance? Can she really let him into her life?

There were so many twists & turns, ups & downs, and excitement in this book, that it keeps you on a huge rollar coaster ride as you read. The characters are so well-developed, that you feel their emotions as move ahead with their story. I love this in a book.

The book is listed a new adult contemporary, but personally, I would list it as more of a YA (maybe 16/17+) It does have some very hot scenes, JMO!

A wonderful debut book!
