01-ODTL-v6Raine Kendall has been in love with her boss, Macen Hammerman, for years. Determined to make the man notice that she’s a grown woman with desires and needs, she pours out her heart and offers her body to him—only to be crushingly rejected. But when his friend, very single, very sexy Liam O’Neill watches the other Dom refuse to act on his obvious feelings for Raine, he resolves to step in and do whatever it takes to help Hammer find happiness again, even rousing his friend’s possessive instincts by making the girl a proposition too tempting to refuse. But he never imagines that he’ll end up falling for her himself.

Hammer has buried his lust for Raine for years. After rescuing the budding runaway from an alley behind his exclusive BDSM Dungeon, he has come to covet the pretty submissive. But tragedy has taught him that he can never be what she needs. So he watches over her while struggling to keep his distance. Liam’s crafty plan blindsides Hammer, especially when he sees how determined his friend is to possess Raine for his own. Hammer isn’t ready to give the lovely submissive over to any other Dom, but can he heal from his past and fight for her? Or will he lose Raine if she truly gives herself—heart, body, and soul—to Liam?

** Book Review ** MARRIED FOR THE TYCOON’S EMPIRE by Abby Green

married-for-the-tycoons-empire

5 STARS!

A fun and easy to read “friends to lovers” type story!

Manhattan construction mogul Benjamin Carter had decided he needs to put an end to the out of control press that is ruining his reputation and putting a crimp in his business transactions, so he sets out to find a wife that will compliment his style.  When he stumbled upon the daughter of one of his business rivals, he can’t resist choosing her!

Julianna Ford doesn’t believe for a minute that it’s just happenstance that Ben bid one million dollars for a kiss from her at a charity function.  She thinks he’s up to no good having to do with his previous offer to buy her father’s business.

Ben isn’t used to having a woman walk away from him and turn down his advances, so when Lia attempts to, he pursues her that much harder.  Will she fall under his spell or will his plan all come crumbling down around him?

** Book Review ** PATTERN OF DECEIT by Leigh Duncan

pattern-of-deceit

4 1/2 STARS!

An action packed story of deceit, corruption, and second chances!  I really enjoyed reading Meredith’s journey and hoping she was going to make it through the danger she was putting herself into. Great characters grabbed my attention from the start, and it was well written … I personally know the area the story is taking place in quite well, so some inaccuracies in the lack of medical facilities nearby jumped out at me, but to the average person, you won’t notice it.

Following the hit-and-run death of her grandmother, Meredith Woodson sets out to find the father that she never knew about.  She promised her Nanny on her deathbed that she would go meet him, and she’s determined to do it.  Along the way, she gets into an accident and winds up needing medical attention.

Dr. Brad Long can’t deny he’s intrigued by the woman that winds up on his examination table.  Weird accidents have been happening around the area more often lately and he’s not sure what to attribute them to.  When Meredith starts asking questions about the religious sect outside of town, he tries to warn her away from them.

Meredith isn’t gung ho to go to “The Prepared” compound, but she doesn’t have any option because she can’t reach her father any other way.  She gets the run around and sets out to falsely join the cult in order to approach him and tell him she’s his daughter.  Things are not what they seem, and she realizes too late that it’s not going to be an easy in and out to get back out of there now that she’s in.

Will she find her father?  And will Brad be able to help her get back out, or will anyone even realize that she’s there?

** Book Review ** BARGAINING FOR THE BILLIONAIRE by J.M. Stewart

bargaining-for-the-billionaire

4 STARS!

Book 3 in author J.M. Stewart’s Seattle Bachelor series brings us another visit to the bachelor auction held every year.  It’s a fun second-chance at love story with a little twist to it.  The characters have some steamy chemistry!  I had a little trouble connecting with Maddie because she seemed a little too unforgiving for my liking, but I enjoyed their story.

Billionaire Grayson Lockwood hasn’t been able to forget the one that got away.  He’s tried to move on with his life in the 3 years since she walked out on him, but no one ever measures up, and he finds himself thinking about her a lot.  He decides that one last ditch effort is required before he can call it done.

Madison O’Riley doesn’t trust easily due to past trauma in her life, so when Gray lied to her, she was quick to cut him out of her life.  She often wonders if she should have heard his side of the story, but what’s done is done.  Right???

Maddie doesn’t get out much, but she lets her friends talk her into a date at the bachelor’s auction, so she’s getting to know the guy with some online chat ahead of time.  Will it all blow up in Gray’s face when she finds out it’s him behind the subterfuge?

** Book Review ** HARD TO HOLD by Katie Rose

hard-to-hold

4 STARS!

A sexy trek into the world of Major League Soccer with Katie Rose!  I really enjoyed this story and the characters, but I didn’t quite feel the passion for the game coming through like I have in the past when reading about her baseball heroes.

New Jersey Hurricanes soccer player Logan Hart is living the good life.  Playing the game he loves, traveling a lot, partying hard and loving lots of women is his standard method of operation. When an ex fling walks up to him at a bar and hands him a baby, he is flabbergasted!  He’s not daddy material!

Isabella Bennett receives the call from nanny company she works for that her services are needed and sets out to whip this single dad into shape!  Her no-nonsense style throws Logan for a loop, but he isn’t willing to rock the boat and have no help, so he agrees to learn.  As this adorable baby and her kind-hearted nanny start to wind themselves around his heart, will he be able to resist them and hold onto that studly reputation of his?

** Blog Tour / Book Review ** SO GOOD by Darcy Burke

So Good
5 STARS!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed getting to visit Ribbon Ridge again and getting a glimpse into a few of the Archer family’s lives down the road through this new series!  We’re starting on a delve into the hunky Westcott men’s stories, and since Cameron is best friends and in business with Hayden Archer, it’s still a great connection to the ever loving family that we all fell for over the years! Darcy has woven a great story here … two hearts who have been stomped on in the past, finding their way to each other and deciding to take a chance again.  Loved it!
Cameron Westcott doesn’t necessarily consider himself a player … he does love his women, but he’s always up front about what he’s looking for.  For once his reputation is biting him where it hurts when he meets a gorgeous woman that he’s interested in and she shoots him down instantly.
Brooke Ellis is new to Ribbon Ridge and on the mend from a hurtful divorce, so she’s definitely NOT looking for another womanizer!  She can’t deny that she finds Cam attractive though … and she’s in love with the wine his company is producing!  Will she actually be the one that makes Cam decide to take a chance on putting his heart out there again?

His two weeks of slow seduction might just be the death of me, but since he’s the one in charge, I have to play the game his way. Not that I’m not enjoying it. I am. Who wouldn’t, right?
