I dazzle the world when I play the guitar,

But I never let anyone dazzle my heart…

Until I spent one night with her.

Darren Ash is living the dream. As lead guitarist for iconic rock band Licks of Leather, he seemingly has it all. But secretly he’s struggling to forget the woman he shared a scorching encounter with over two years ago. Every time he closes his eyes, he sees her shattering in ecstasy, feels her soft body beneath him, and hears her screaming his name. Unable to purge his ache, he resolves to find and claim her. There’s just one problem… He doesn’t know her name.

Tori Combs can never forget foolishly tumbling into bed with bad-boy rocker Darren Ash. Every day, she sees his face. Every night, she’s haunted by memories of his addictive kiss and masterful touch. Thankfully, he’ll never find her; she made sure of that. If he did, he would destroy the new life she’s created…with the son he knows nothing about.

But Darren refuses to let her go. Soon, he’s at her door, demanding answers—and her heart. Though Tori tries to resist him, their undeniable passion explodes. But when he learns the shocking truth, can they recapture the chemistry they once shared. Or will her betrayal keep them apart forever?

A passionate heart! With the second book in her Licks of Leather rock star series, Jenna Jacob brings us Darren’s story. This was my favorite in the series so far … not only does it have a passionate love story, but it has a major case of feels as well.

Darren Ash is the lead guitarist for Licks of Leather and has been laying low mooning over a one night encounter for more than two years now. The guys in the band know nothing about the woman he met, but he can’t get her off his mind. When a P.I. he hired comes up with a lead, he’s got to see if it’s truly her!

Tori Combs hasn’t forgotten Darren either, but that would be almost impossible for her to do when a little boy who looks just like him is the center of her world. She never thought she’d see him again, but she can’t resist him when she does … but when he finds out what truly happened that night, will he be able to forgive her?

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series. This group of guys is close-knit and caring, so the drama surrounding them each finding their happily ever after is satisfying to read.

Millionaire nightclub owner Jake Lawson works hard, but executive concierge Ainsley Scott is showing him how to let loose…in the sexiest possible way!

I knew I was in trouble the moment millionaire Jake Lawson walked through the door of his swanky Tribeca loft. The definition of tall, dark and handsome, he’s hired me to take care of his parents’ Irish wolfhound. But one game of strip Scrabble later and we’re taking care of each other all night long…

Starting my concierge business was my way out of the rat race I ran as a lawyer until it cost me my fiancé. And Jake is a full-on workaholic, certain his high-end nightclub will fall apart if he loses focus for a second. We couldn’t be more different. But the chemistry between us is off the charts!

From drag-queen karaoke to movies at Hudson River Park, I’m showing Jake how to lighten up and enjoy everything New York City has to offer. But I can’t help wondering if blowing each other’s minds in bed is enough to make up for our different values. Can Jake step away from his smartphone long enough to give us a chance?

Sizzling chemistry! DIRTY WORK by Regina Kyle is so much fun to read! An adorable (or not!) meet-cute involving a dog has this couple under each other’s skin from the first moment they meet and it’s simply delightful.

Ainsley Scott is a breath of fresh air. She is simply doing a favor for a friend when she agrees to add a dog to her list of chores every day for a few months, but never once did she think said friend’s brother would sweep her off her feet and into a hot and heavy affair … but she’s gotta admit, she’s loving it!

Jake Lawson is sex on a stick the second we meet him. He’s a successful nightclub owner and knows just how tempting he is from the word go. Their passion begins as a slow burn but once it ignites, it’s game over.

I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a fast paced, sexy read with lots of heart and humor throughout. Really enjoyed it.

When a witness becomes a target…

Can this K-9 track down the killer?

After Karenna Pressley stumbles upon a ruthless drug dealer trying to drown her best friend, she’s on his hit list—and out of places to run. Her ex-boyfriend, K-9 officer Ray Morrow, is determined to keep her safe with his drug-detecting spaniel, Abby. But with danger stalking them, will their reunion be a chance for a fresh start or the end for them both?

 

Non-stop action! With the second book in the True Blue K-9 Unit: Brooklyn series, Heather Woodhaven takes us for an exciting ride as danger comes for Ray’s ex-girlfriend! We’re familiar with him from the first book in the series and now we get to ride along as he and his K-9 partner Abby step in to keep the one he left behind safe.

Karenna Pressley turns up in the wrong place at the right time to save her best friend from an attempted murder, but now she’s in the madman’s sights and she needs protection!

Ray Morrow didn’t expect to see his ex-girlfriend as one of the victims when he walks onto a case, but he’s determined to make sure he personally keeps her safe when he does.

I highly recommend this book and the entire series so far to anyone who likes an action packed, high energy faith-based romance. I’m looking forward to what’s to come in the series.
