Leo Winter loves his life. He works when he needs money. He rides when he craves freedom. He frequents the local bar when he wants a good time. The Tin Gypsies might be a memory, but the bachelor life he lived with his motorcycle club still suits him fine. So when a one-night stand surprises him at a family barbecue and claims she’s pregnant with his child, he’s certain he’s died and gone to hell.

Cassandra Cline took one night off from her structured life. One. And now her wild fling with the local bad boy has turned her life sideways. Her dreams and academic career are circling the drain, and none of it would have happened if she’d stayed far, far away from Leo.

Except avoiding him is impossible, especially when she’s forced to move home to Clifton Forge, Montana. And he refuses to leave her side when a series of strange accidents put her and their baby at risk. But are they accidents? Or is she standing in the middle of a battlefield she doesn’t understand?

Her only allies are people she barely knows. And a man who has the potential to steal her heart.

If only he’d stop playing the fool.

The ultimate bad boy has met his match! With book five in the Tin Gypsy series Devney Perry has Leo being a jerk throughout a good part of the book … and yet I still love that lug of a jerk! He’s family now am I right?! In FALLEN JESTER Leo’s wandering ways will get the best of him when a one night hookup shows up with a big surprise for him. I’m finally caught up with my series binge and now I’m going to be counting the days until book six gets here. I love this loveable group of guys and gals and all of their danger and drama.

Leo is loyal and lovable even when he’s being a jerk. He’s playful and fun, but he’s a bit of a crossroads even before he learns that he has a baby on the way.

Cass is steadfast and determined on her course in life, but the aftereffects of the trauma she suffered recently has her reeling and looking for comfort and fun. That fun brought more than she bargained for though.

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone who enjoys an MC series that has a family of misfits who love hard and remain loyal to the bone.

* Review * MARRIED FOR ONE REASON ONLY by Dani Collins

Married for One Reason Only by Dani Collins
Series: The Secret Sisters #1

Convenient vows…
…for their baby’s sake!

His brief was simple: confirm whether model Oriel Cuvier is the secret daughter of a Bollywood legend. But when billionaire security specialist Vijay Sahir locks eyes with Oriel, all thoughts of work disappear—leading to a few stolen hours where all rules are broken…

Weeks later, Oriel gets two life-changing surprises. First, the truth about her birth mother. Second, she’s pregnant with Vijay’s child! He demands marriage, but can she really promise to honor and cherish him when, until now, all they’ve shared is one extraordinary encounter?

A surprise pregnancy is just the beginning of the drama about to unravel in the first book of The Secret Sisters duet by Dani Collins. MARRIED FOR ONE REASON ONLY kicks off a little slow and confusing, but the characters and all of the secondary characters start to make sense eventually and deliver a satisfying romance. I’m looking forward to the second part of the duet.

Oriel is accomplished and successful yet doubts herself and where she fits. As the storyline unravels, she feels justified in her doubts as secrets are exposed.

Vijay is secretive and troublesome at first, but ends up being a pretty stable guy.

I recommend this book to anyone who likes a lot of drama and subterfuge mixed into their romance.

Calling Cassie by Kat Mizera

Twenty-three-year-old hockey stud Logan Pelletier is having the time of his life as the ultimate bachelor. It’s all about hockey and living it up with his friends. He has no time for love, let alone a relationship. Until a spunky, hockey-playing stripper dances into his life... and his bed.

Miss independent Cassidy Reynolds is already 0-2 in the marriage department. And the twice divorced twenty-four year old isn’t looking for lucky number three. She’s focused on hockey and getting a college degree. Stripping is just a means to an end, but when her friends from the Alaska Blizzard hockey team start hanging out at the club, she knows it won’t be long before they figure out her secret.

As Logan and Cassie blur the lines, will it be game over for their friendship or will it be the start of something more?

Highly enjoyable friends to lovers story! Kat Mizera delivers lots of sass with book nine in her Alaska Blizzard hockey series and I loved every minute of it! The characters were quick to catch my attention and had me invested in their chemistry throughout. Looking forward to more in this super fun series!

Logan is fun loving and sincere and loves hockey and having a good time. He’s not looking for a relationship, but have Cassie in close quarters certainly brings temptation to life!

Cassie is an all around great person who has been handed a crappy hand a few times in life. It’s heartwarming to watch her let her guard down just a little with Logan and even Ryder.

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone who loves a hockey romance filled with hunky men and lots of laughs and sexy times around each corner.
