* Review * THE WITNESS by Nichole Severn

The Witness by Nichole Severn
Series: Marshal Law #2

Goodreads

She’s not out of danger

…even with his 24/7 protection.

Checking in on his witness in protective custody, marshal Finn Reed finds Camille Goodman fighting an attacker. Has the Carver come back to finish what he started? Finn is determined to keep the strong-willed redhead alive…and keep his professional distance. But as barriers between them fall, a serial killer’s twisted game plays out—one that the deputy and his fearless witness may not win.

Exhilarating from start to finish! Nichole Severn begins book two in her Marshal Law series with a bang as we’re quickly thrust into a crime scene with THE WITNESS. The characters are easy to like and held my attention. I’m enjoying the series and looking forward to more to come!

Finn is a powerful character. He walks in blind to what’s happening in the first scene and draws the readers attention quickly. He’s easy to connect with and a solid character.

Camille had my heart from the start. She’s been through a lot in the last year and just when she thinks it’s settling down, the world explodes around her. The strength she finds to carry forward for justice is awe inspiring.

I recommend this book and the series as a whole to anyone who loves a romance filled with lots of intrigue and attention grabbing characters.

Follow Me Darkly by Helen Hardt
Series: Follow Me #1
Published by Entangled: Amara on September 29, 2020

She’s a take-charge woman. But he’s a master of control.

Skye Manning knows what she wants. Her job as assistant and photographer for a major social media influencer isn’t perfect, but it’s a rung on the ladder to bigger and better things. She’s confident she’ll one day take feature photos for National Geographic.

Self-made billionaire Braden Black didn’t get where he is by taking no for an answer. When a chance encounter with the refreshingly innocent and beautiful Skye piques his interest in more ways than one, he’s determined to make her submit.

Dating a billionaire soon has Skye in the middle of a Cinderella story…until the clock strikes midnight and Braden reveals his dark side. Heat sizzles between them, and Skye finds herself falling hard.

But Braden Black is no Prince Charming, and his dark desires are far from his only secret.

Decadently erotic! Braden Black had me from hello … and so did Helen Hardt with the first in her Follow Me series! FOLLOW ME DARKLY is a fresh take on a Fifty Shades-esque story line of a less experienced and unworldly young lady meeting an uber rich, more experienced man of the world. The characters are interesting, the plot is exciting and follow through is not far from perfect. You get a happy-for-now ending and a bit of a cliffhanger for the 2nd of three books about this same couple. I’m looking forward to more Skye and Braden!

Skye is a sweetheart. She’s a small town convert now living in Boston and using her job as an assistant to a social media influencer to get a leg up in her dream career of photography. One meeting with a mystery man is all it takes to woo her into a life of luxury and decadence.

Braden is strong-willed and secretive, but that’s what intrigues him to the reader the most. We know he’s got secrets, but he’s forthcoming with so many of his wants and desires that it makes him a treasure trove of emotions and dreams.

I highly recommend this book to fans of BDSM and emotional drama mixed with your romance.

The Path to Sunshine Cove by RaeAnne Thayne
Published by HQN Books on March 30, 2021
Buy on Amazon
Goodreads

She knows what’s best for everyone but herself…

With a past like hers, Jessica Clayton feels safer in a life spent on the road. She’s made a career out of helping others downsize—because she’s learned the hard way that the less “stuff,” the better, a policy she applies equally to her relationships. But a new client is taking Jess back to Cape Sanctuary, a town she once called home…and that her little sister, Rachel, still does. The years apart haven’t made a dent in the guilt Jess still carries after a handgun took the lives of both their parents and changed everything between them.

While Jess couldn’t wait to put the miles between her and Cape Sanctuary, Rachel put down roots, content for the world—and her sister—to think she has a picture-perfect life. But with the demands of her youngest child’s disability, Rachel’s marriage has begun to fray at the seams. She needs her sister now more than ever, yet she’s learned from painful experience that Jessica doesn’t do family, and she shouldn’t count on her now.

Against her judgment, Jess finds herself becoming attached—to her sister and her family, even to her client’s interfering son, Nate—and it’s time to put everything on the line. Does she continue running from her painful past, or stay put and make room for the love and joy that come along with it?

RaeAnne Thayne always makes us feel like we are right there in the middle of the family! In her upcoming release THE PATH TO SUNSHINE COVE, she delves into the strained connection between two adult sisters who were torn apart by tragedy as teens and who are stumbling into a reconnection just when things seem to be falling down around one of their heads. There were a couple of items from the past that weren’t fleshed out and addressed fully, but overall it was a phenomenal story with wonderful characters, intense storylines and so many feel good moments.

Jess and Rachel are both strong, determined women who went about finding their happiness in totally different ways. Jess feels the hurt of the past with a different bite than Rachel does, and Rachel feels like Jess’s way of coping is a dig at her. Watching them work to reconnect is heartwarming.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a bit of family drama mixed with a whole lot of heart and a side of romance or two.

TORE by Kat Mizera
Series: Sidewinders: Generations #2

Goodreads

Swedish-born hockey player Tore Brekken thought he’d be a bachelor for life. The parties, the women, the lavish vacations— and the Ferrari. He had everything he could ever want, but his extreme lifestyle has been taking a toll. As much as he hated to admit it, he needed to settle down. He just didn’t expect to go from seriously single to daddy material overnight.

Single mom Margot Delgado’s life revolves around her four-year-old daughter Gracie. Tired of being let down, she doesn’t have time to waste dating men she can’t count on. Especially some hotshot hockey player with a playboy reputation as big as his... bank account.

But when the annual Fantasy Night rolls around, Margot decides to let her hair down— and for once she isn’t just someone’s mom, but someone’s wildest fantasy. From the first taste she knows she could get drunk on the way Tore makes her feel, and one night with him will never be enough.

When reality comes crashing down, and things get complicated, will they both be willing to risk it all for a chance to win big?

Yowza! The steamiest book in the series yet is utterly pleasing! Book two in Kat Mizera’s Sidewinders: Generations hockey series will knock your socks off when a single mom meets her fantasy head on. I loved the characters, I loved their connection and I absolutely loved little Gracie!

Margot is a single mom giving her all to making her little girl happy and giving her a life she deserves and I simply adored them both.

Tore is a doll. He’s been lusting after Margot for awhile and when the yearly fantasy night at a local club brings them together in ways neither ever expected, he can’t pass up the opportunity to finally get a chance to win her heart.

I highly recommend this book and the series as a whole to anyone who loves hockey romance and smoking hot connections on that way towards happily ever after.

Puck's Property by Monique Moreau
Series: The Demon Squad MC #5
on January 21, 2021
Buy on Amazon
Goodreads

A lonely social worker.

A biker behind bars.

Can their red-hot passion set them free?

What if your first love was your one true love? Eight years ago, Puck broke Ava's heart. She picked up the pieces, patched them together, and kept going. Yet she never forgot him. When Puck sauntered through her office door at work, she was shocked to find a brawny, tatted-up biker dressed in an orange jumpsuit with the word INMATE stamped on the back.

What if you rediscovered the passion you carelessly threw away in your youth? For Puck, the only good thing about his trip to the jailhouse social worker's office was finding Ava again. All grown up, she looked luscious, and he bet she tasted even better.

Breaking up seemed like the right thing to do at the time, but no other woman could replace Ava. Fate brought them together again and Puck wouldn’t make the same mistake twice. Ava was his property and he’d bring her to heel—no matter what it took. If that included blackmail, so be it. A biker never won by playing fair.

But what happens in jail doesn't always stay in jail, and dark forces conspire to divert destiny and tear these lovers apart. Will their love survive a second trial?

A fast paced reunion of first loves! With book five in her Demon Squad MC series Monique Moreau brings us Puck’s story and it was emotionally riveting! I wanted a little more depth to their back story and family connections, but overall a strong addition to the series and left me hoping for more from the Demon Squad!

Puck has always had an emotional pull since this series started because we knew he had raised his little sister by himself, so it was endearing to get to know more of his background and watch him get his happily ever after.

Ava is a strong and determined woman who used the pain of her past to fuel her desire to make something of herself and help others.

I recommend this book and the entire series to anyone who loves a close knit MC who is truly a family who supports each other through it all.

Daimon
As Treasurer of the Untamed Sons MC, I don't have time to deal with a bratty kid. Briella is nineteen. I'm thirty-one. I'm too old for her tantrums, but I'm sure there's something more to her acting out than a late teenage rebellion. When I look in her eyes, I see her demons glaring back at me, and I want to know who put them there. I shouldn't be thinking about her at all, but I'm willing to stand against my club brothers and break vows I've made to keep her, but first I have to uncover what she's hiding.

Briella
I've got darkness in my past that I can no longer keep buried. When Daimon finds out the truth, he's going to drop me and run. I shouldn't be falling for my brother's best friend, but I can't stop my feelings from growing. I want him. No, I need him. He's becoming my everything and I have no idea how to be without him.

But that choice might not be mine. Once he finds out the truth about me, he's going to walk away because the truth is I'm broken, I'm damaged and my past is coming back to haunt me.

*Warning : Contains adult content, reading age 18 +. Graphic violence and dark emotional scenes that may trigger some readers.

Explosive secrets and lies! The third book in the Untamed Sons MC series by Jessica Ames continues the dark, emotional journey of this London based club towards happily ever after for all. DAIMON brings together the little sister of a fellow biker with dark and broody Daimon. I loved them together, and I thought the plot had great potential, but could have used a little fleshing out. Loving the series as a whole and looking forward to more to come!

Briella is a sweetheart and it’s easy to like her and understand why she intrigues Daimon.

Daimon is big and bad in the workings of the club, but underneath when he’s in Brie’s arms he’s a protective teddy bear.

I recommend this book and the entire series to anyone who loves a close knit MC who fights for the safety of their family of bikers and loves heard.

Meet Me Under the Mistletoe by Brenda Harlen
Series: Match Made in Haven #9
Published by Harlequin Special Edition on November 1, 2020
Buy on Amazon
Goodreads

She wasn’t anyone’s Christmas present!

Can Christmas Wishes Come True?

Haylee Gilmore always made practical decisions—except for one unforgettable night with Trevor Blake! Now she’s expecting his baby, and the corporate cowboy wants to do the right thing. But the long-distance mom-to-be refuses to marry for duty—she wants his heart. The once-burned Blake had long ago given up on love—yet the idea of fatherhood cracks his defenses. Maybe, if Trevor can let go of his past, he’ll find Haylee willing to accept his yuletide proposal after all…

A classic case of lust at first sight! With book nine in her always fun Match Made in Haven series, Brenda Harlen brings a surprise pregnancy to life when a Gilmore meets a Blake and hearts collide. Their sizzle was delightful and I really enjoyed their story.

Haylee is a strong, independent soul who has never taken a chance on love and isn’t so sure she really wants to.

Trevor was burned by love before and isn’t receptive to ever trying again … but he has a big heart and it doesn’t take long for Haylee to hold a major part of it.

I recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone who enjoys a small town vibe with connected families and characters mixed with your romance.

* Review * RAMBLING STAR RANCH by Diane J. Reed

Rambling Star Ranc by Diane J. Reed
Series: Starlight & Sagebrush #1
Published by Bandits Ranch Books on June 30, 2020
Buy on Amazon
Goodreads

When you wish upon a rambling star, true love will lead you home...

Swoon-worthy rodeo champion Dixon Ramsey is used to playing the hero for Bandits Hollow, Colorado, whether it’s rounding up their wayward cattle or taking care of the town drunk. Yet he’s totally caught off guard when Tempest Wright, a popular radio show host, blows into the county fair with her eight-year-old boy and his Angus yearling in tow. Her son’s bull has become so cantankerous that he’s about to get them kicked out of 4-H, and Tempest is served an ultimatum—either get expert training from Dixon, or they can kiss the county fair goodbye. For the sake of her son, relationship-phobic Tempest has no choice but to trust this drop-dead gorgeous cowboy whose killer charm makes her want to head for the hills. Yet with a little magical help from Granny Tinker, Dixon shows Tempest a whole new world where love is real on the range, second chances are worth fighting for, and only the toughest cowboys survive—because they know how to stay.

Diane J. Reed sure knows how to write a swoon worthy cowboy! With the first book in her Starlight and Sagebrush series she continues to delight her readers with Bandits Hollow, Colorado folklore mixed with a bit of magic and lots of happily ever afters. RAMBLING STAR RANCH connects a rodeo champ with a single mom and a rambunctious little boy to bring life back to a wounded heart. I’m not loving the matchmakers quite as much as I did just the Iron Horse spirit in the previous series, but I still love the town and the cast overall. Looking forward to more in the series!

Tempest is quick to snatch our hearts when we learn what her recent past has been, and meeting her adorable son Owen just makes our heart swell even more.

Dixon is a doll. He has a good heart and a kind soul for the entire town and watching him fall under the spell of Tempest and her son is heartwarming.

I recommend this book to anyone who loves a sweet romance filled with small town townsfolk, happily ever afters and a touch of magic.

Pretending to love her is easy.

But this is one fight I might just lose.

I couldn’t look away! With a delectable friends to lovers setting Stacey Lynn brings us Klaus and Jillian’s story in FIGHTING DIRTY, book five of her Ice Kings series. The characters are well developed and very easy to connect with, the drama and angst is high and the steamy sex appeal is on fire. Loved every minute of it!

Jillian easily has a reader’s sympathy once we learned her back story and watching her step up and face the drama with pride and dignity was fulfilling.

Klaus is the sweetest! There is nothing not to like about this guy and how he goes about supporting the friend he happens to be secretly in love with.

Excerpt

“I’ll do it.” “What?” I mean, that was Becca’s plan, but I still hadn’t decided if I was going to ask Klaus. He’ll have to pretend to be my boyfriend. Someone who loves me enough to prove I’ve totally moved on from Roman and Julianna. I’m not sure my mental health can handle spending a weekend with Klaus pretending we’re dating and then coming back home after and going back to being friends. “Sure. Why wouldn’t I do it?” “Are you sure?” I take a small sip. Too much wine will go straight to my head. My appetite still hasn’t returned since Saturday, mostly because I’ve been dreading this moment. “Because it’s not just a date, I mean, it is, but we’d have to act in love and all that stuff.” Klaus laughs and pushes off his stool. “I do understand the general idea of being a boyfriend and what that entails.” A warm, calloused, and gorgeous hand covers mine, forcing both my hand and the avocado oil glass bottle to the counter. “Look at me.” When I do, he steals my breath. I’ve been able to hide my reaction to him for years. First I pushed it aside because I was stupidly in love with Roman, and then we were friends. Are friends. Right. Friends shouldn’t feel this way or have their body heat just because they’re in close, touching proximity to each other. Someone should tell that to my vagina. “What about Bailey?” Bailey’s his on-again, off-again cheerleader girlfriend with the local NBA team. She’s also a pre-med student and sweet as hell. It’s difficult to hate her even when I tried. And before Bailey, there was Barbie and Brianna and Bianca. Klaus has such a fascination with women whose names start with the letter B I hesitated to ever introduce him to Becca. Fortunately, Becca’s immune to his charm. “I haven’t seen Bailey in months.” “What?” I ask again. “I thought…” “We weren’t serious. And she wanted something I couldn’t give her.” “What’s that?” “Commitment. My heart.” His steel-blue eyes are perfectly framed with long, golden-brown lashes that blink slowly. “I didn’t feel that way about her, so we ended things, firmly, months ago, and I don’t want to talk about her anymore. I’d love to take you to the wedding. In fact, I want to take you.” A tiny little bubble of hope lifts my voice. “Really? You’ll pretend with me?” His eyes bounce from mine, to my nose, to my lips before meeting my gaze. I swear that steely blue deepens into another emotion before he smiles. “Sure. I’ll pretend with you.” A flutter of warmth skips across my shoulder, to my neck, down my spine. Pretend to be in love with Klaus Newman? I can totally pull that off. But can I do it while hiding the fact I think I’m already halfway in love with the guy? I guess we’ll see how good of an actress I am.

Excerpt

The guys were going to kill him. Ollie scrubbed a hand over his face. They wouldn’t be surprised, of course. But they were going to be pissed. They’d all known that Piper quitting was a risk and that one day she’d probably wise-up and lose her patience and that would be it. They’d also all known that when it happened there was a 90 percent chance it would be because of Ollie. The other 10 percent chance was that it would be because of Ollie and Dax together. And now it had finally happened. If it came down to choosing between him and Piper, he wasn’t sure he wanted to know how that debate would end up. Or how short the discussion would be before they decided they wanted and needed her more. That was only one of the reasons he hadn’t told them yet. The other was because he was still processing the part where she’d said she loved him. What was he supposed to do with that? She wasn’t just supposed to say that out loud right to him, was she? He had not been expecting that. The guys and their girlfriends had insinuated for a while now that Piper might have a crush on him but no, he hadn’t expected her to ever say anything herself. It was a might have. A crush. Okay, they were adults and maybe adults didn’t have crushes exactly, but everything anyone had said suggested that it was just that Piper thought he was interesting at times and that she didn’t hate spending time with him. But a crush wasn’t love. For fuck’s sake. And it had to be Piper? Piper Barry was amazing. She was gorgeous. She was smart. She was capable. She could do anything. She was funny and sweet and sassy and tough. She was intimidating as hell. What was he supposed to do with her now? What was he supposed to do without her now? Well, the solution seemed pretty obvious. She’d basically given him the answer herself—I can’t be in love with you and work for you. And the only one of those two things I can change is the working for you part. So he needed to get her to not be in love with him anymore. Then she’d come back to work and all would be fine. Now he just had to get her to realize she could do a hell of a lot better than him. Of course, he’d been a pain in her ass for five years now. If that didn’t do it, he wasn’t sure what would.

Erin lives in the Midwest, where she enjoys spending time with her husband (who only wants to read the sex scenes in her books), her kids (who will never read the sex scenes in her books), and her family and friends (who claim to be “shocked” by the sex scenes in her books).
