Sheriff’s Secret by K Webster - “Love is love. Even if it doesn’t match up or look right. As long as the two people, whose hearts are involved, are happy, then the rest doesn’t matter.”

 

From USA Today bestselling author K Webster comes a 
steamy, emotional, enemies-to-lovers small-town MM romance!




Blurb

The past was all he could see...until him. 

When you're the sheriff of Brigs Ferry Bay, certain things are expected of you.
Marry a local girl, settle down, have a few kids. You know, the small-town dream.
But I've got a secret I'm terrified will get out.

I'm gay.
Not bi. Not curious. Not confused.
Just gay.
So, settling for that dream won't be happening.

If this secret gets out, the people I serve and protect, especially my father, won't be accepting.
 
I'm not brave like my high school sweetheart, Kian.
The day he came out was the day I had to let him go, and with it, love.

I've done a great job of pretending I'm perfectly fine being single. Until a villainous and annoyingly charming new B&B owner, Dante Kincaid, rolls into town. The spark between us is electric and undeniable. He wants to give me a taste of what he has to offer, and better yet, he vows to be discreet. I'm too selfish to refuse.  

But my secret is still a heavy burden, leaving me handcuffed to expectations and unable to fully grasp what I want--him. History has a way of repeating itself, but this time around, with Dante, it'll hurt a lot worse.

I have to decide if I'm going to let love slip away again or if I'm going to finally fight for it.

Brigs Ferry Bay is a steamy MM romance series.
Fall in love with the charming small-town gay romances of Brigs Ferry Bay.

While each book can be read as a standalone, to get the full experience, they’re best read in order.

Review

I’m so happy I had the opportunity to read an ARC of Sheriff’s Secret. As with all of Kristi’s book, this one was well written, emotional and an absolute page turner. 

I got sucked into Brigs Ferry Bay from page one and didn’t want to stop reading until I got to the end. Jaxon and Dante were such great characters, but I loved all the secondary characters as much as I loved them! I’m so excited that this is a series because I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Kian, Callan, Cato, Zak and all the other guys we’ve yet to meet. 

Despite their rocky start, Jax & Dante’s love story is a fast burn. Prepare yourself because this is one spicy read! While this book will set you on fire, it’s still an emotional read that deals with some very real factors of being gay in a small town. 

I loved every second of this book and liked the crime-solving aspect of the book as well. I also really enjoy novels that don’t follow the typical romance novel format. I was a little worried that this would be too predictable, but it definitely wasn’t. 

If you’re a K Webster or MM fan, one-click this book immediately! You won’t regret it.

MY BEAUTIFUL POISON, BOOK ONE IN WICKED POISON SERIOES BY USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR T.L. SMITH IS LIVE!!

My Beautiful Poison by T.L. Smith

BOOK BLURB

I forgave him for the lies he told.
And I forgave him for breaking my body with his touch.
But I couldn’t forgive myself for staying.
Until I met you… my antidote.
I knew I couldn’t keep forgiving him, when I could be safe in your arms.
With your touch, there were no tears.
With your kisses, I could finally breathe.
You might be the villain in everyone’s story...
But not mine.

REVIEW

This was the first book I've read by T.L. Smith. I did listen to Black on Audible Plus, though, so I guess that actually counts as my first T.L. book. Rylee and August were very enjoyable characters, however I feel like I needed a bit more depth to allow me to truly feel their emotions. I struggled to connect to them. With that being said, I did enjoy the story and the journey they went on.

I’m damaged.

I’ve been through too much in my eighteen years.

Between joining the Bloody Psychos and mourning my best friend,

I’m going a little crazy.

 

If the enemy is no longer the enemy, you can jump in bed with them, right?

You’d think I’d be happy with five guys in my life, but I can’t control myself.

What can I say? Bad boys are my weakness.

 

The Bloody Psychos and the Devil’s Armada have my back, but now I need to have theirs.

Sacrifices must be made to keep them safe, and I’ll do anything.

Even sell my soul to a monster.

 

The only person I’ll be able to rely on is myself.

Deceiving everyone I love is the only way this can go.

I just wish they’d let me go without a fight.

 

I’m going downhill fast, and no one can save me.

In destroying everyone around me, I’ll destroy myself too.

Nothing can compare to the emotional pain of hurting the ones you love.

 

This can only end bloody.

I just never expected the one holding the gun would be my guardian angel.

Review

Where do I even begin? I’ve been patiently (ok, IMpatiently) waiting for the ARC for Beautiful Deceit because THAT TWISTED FATE CLIFFHANGER! But let me tell you, I was not prepared for this book. The heartbreak just kept right on going until the end. I felt like my heart was getting ripped out of my chest for most of the book and then I was smacked with one of the most brutal cliffhangers that I’ve read (where I had to wait for the the next book to be released and couldn’t dive in immediately) to date! I’m still not recovered from it yet. And I’m not sure I’ll be able to recover until I get my hands on Ignite Me, book 4 of the Watch Me Burn series, and the final installment in Rory’s story. 

As with the previous books, this is told in multiple POVs. You get just enough of a peak into the guy’s thoughts to partially understand their motivation for what they do, but never too much. It’s still primarily Rory’s story. 

Beautiful Deceit starts off a few months after Twisted Fate ends and gets right down to business. As you would expect from Rory, her life is never simple. And she continues to make it even more complicated by adding to her harem. Some of her choices are accepted by the others, while others aren’t. 

Rory and her men are still dealing with the threat of the Soldiers while also trying to heal from Slash’s death. Rory continues to be an independent, badass woman while trying to keep all her very alpha men happy, which isn’t an easy task. Despite not officially being in a relationship with them anymore, she still loves them and values their friendships. Within the group, Jensen and Lukas are trying to navigate the new possible dynamics of their relationship along with the complications it creates. Beautiful Deceit is so action packed; the book starts and doesn’t stop until the dreaded “to be continued” at the end.

I’m so excited for Ignite Me because I’m obsessed with this world and can’t wait to see what consequences the final scene in Beautiful Deceit will have in the next book.

No Commitment by Lisa Suzanne - "No more of this no commitment nonsense. I'm all in..."

 

No Commitment by Lisa Suzanne

Book Blurb

No commitment. That was my deal with Tyler from the start, at least until his tour was over and we could be together. But thirty days filming a reality show here, two years overseas with his band there... Is it really any wonder why I didn’t tell him about the baby?

He comes looking for me once he’s back in the country, but he runs into the man I married instead. Eventually I agree to meet him so I can put the past truly behind me. When I see him, though, every feeling I held inside comes rushing back.

My husband and I vowed to raise this baby together. But as I find myself drifting away from the husband who stole my job and gravitating toward the rock star who stole my heart, I realize he deserves the truth.

I just have no idea how this rock star who doesn’t make commitments is going to react to the fact that he’s a father.

No Commitment by Lisa Suzanne

Review

When I read the blurb for No Commitment I was so intrigued. I love rockstar romances and surprise pregnancy tropes. This combo had my name written all over it. This book starts 2 years before the present time while the main characters are casually seeing each other. With no strings attached. No commitment.

Being rich is great until you become the saint of Arcadia.

Gentleman.

Charmer.

All-star.

They call me a saint, but if they knew the lies, the fallacies,

and what truths I hide, I’d be labeled a proclaimed sinner.

I lie, do all the bad deeds, especially if it does right by her.

She’s the darkness but also the light.

He’s my downfall but also my redemption.

Two opposites, but somehow everything I’ve fought for.

Earning her, saving him, it’s all I can think of.

Saint or sinner, I’ll win her.

Death or life, I’ll protect him.

Truth or lie, I’ll save them.

Arcadia isn’t prepared for the war its wrought.

Good thing I’m a fighter.

No one said I’d bow down to an unworthy king.




Review

Picking up right where Corpse left off, the action in Saint hits the ground running. There’s so much happening that I found myself highlighting crazy amounts of the book to help keep track of all the little pieces of information that are continually being dropped. We’re slowly starting to see more of the web, while also realizing that it’s a much larger web than you thought. There were so many twists & turns that what you don’t know severely outweighs what you do know. There are also several new characters introduced that simultaneously answer some questions while creating new ones.

I like how the focus of the book shifted a bit to focus on Jordan, Lennox & Colt. While all the guys were present and we still got multiple POVs, these three seemed to take the spotlight this book. I absolutely love multiple POV books because of all the extra insight you gain into the inner thoughts of all the main characters. There also little Cassidy nuggets thrown in that added so much to the story. I didn’t find this book as dark as Corpse, but there’s definitely darker themes throughout.

This book has TONS of steam starting almost right off the bat. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart, in the best way possible of course. It does feature MM scenes, so if that’s not your thing, then this might not be the book for you.

Saint absolutely ends in a cliffhanger, so prepare yourself. I’m so ready for Here Loves a Sociopath that I don’t know how I’ll manage to wait until March.

NOW AVAILABLE! Desecrated Essence by CA Rene - “Live each day like you are vibrant and free, because before you know it, your essence is blowing in the wind.”

Desecrated Essence, Book 2 in the Desecrated Duet, by C.A. Rene is now LIVE!


Title: Desecrated Essence (Book 2, Desecrated Duet)

Author: C.A. Rene

Release Date: December 7th 

Genre:  Dark Reverse Harem Romance

 Cover Designer: TalkNerdy2me



Blurb

What happens when your only source of warmth and light leaves you?

The dismal shadows once kept at bay, begin to seep back in and coat everything the light once touched. All feeling becomes saturated in their inky grasp and escape becomes impossible. She left me here in the dark, alone and awaiting the impending destruction.

Who do you turn to when you feel all is lost?

His presence isn’t welcomed, and his anger scorches my insides, but at least he never leaves. Now that I’m truly alone, his claws sink deep and trying to flee would be futile. We are one, him and I. There’s nothing I can do but watch the storm clouds roll in.

How do I warn them if the warning is me?

I can’t control him once he has something in his sights,  His determination knows no bounds, and his wrath is an addiction I know too well. 

There’s no stopping the lightning if you don’t hear the thunder.




Review

I thought I knew what a dark romance book was, but the Desecrated Duet showed me I had no idea. Since this is a duet, you absolutely need to read book 1, Desecrated Flesh, before you can begin this one. I was intrigued by the trigger warning in the beginning of the book and wondered what would happen because of how book 1 ended. Boy do you find out. This book hurt to read for so many reasons. I went through a whole range of emotions: happy, angry and I even cried. I spent the majority of the book unsure of how to feel. I was absolutely not ready for this DE, nor the ensuing hangover. 

“Let those be your reminder, everything that lives will one day dry up and crumble into the earth. So, live each day like you are vibrant and free, because before you know it, your essence is blowing in the wind.”

I can’t talk about much because it would be a spoiler and I’m a huge advocate of going in as blind as possible. With this book, it’s even more important. 

One thing I really loved was KH’s growth. She went from being an abused girl to a strong woman and man did she earn that title. 

There’s so much going on throughout this book with the Golden Four’s and the other crime families that you don’t completely understand what’s happening until the end. Or at least you think you do. And then BAM! The epilogue happens and you’re left with your jaw somewhere close to the floor. Or at least that was my reaction - I absolutely did not see that coming! I love being surprised almost as much as I enjoy figuring out the mystery before it comes out in the story. 

Desecrated Flesh was the first book I read by CA and I’m hooked! I loved her writing style, the characters and how she wasn’t afraid to write a truly dark duet.

Upside Down by A.M. Madden - "We fit. We made sense... I had finally found my person."

NEW RELEASE & GIVEAWAY

Upside Down by A.M. Madden

Book Blurb 

From USA Today bestselling author A. M. Madden comes a stand-alone about one man’s awakening to all-new desires—and to a life-altering romance.

I’ve always been known as the hopeless romantic … the nice guy … the sweetheart.

Everything in my life supported this persona. My students loved my easy personality. My colleagues admired the way I handled myself in the classroom.

But something was always missing.

Like so many relationships before it, my current attempt at love felt like a dead end. When she gave me an ultimatum, I couldn’t promise to give her what she wanted.

So, she ended it.

Explaining another breakup to my family was the last thing I wanted. But doing it on a luxury yacht at my brother’s wedding lessened the hardship.

I never imagined that trip would change everything... and I certainly wasn’t prepared for him to change everything.

Upside Down is a sister’s best friend, straight-to-gay stand-alone romance that contains adult content.

Review

Upside Down is book 3 in the Breaking the Rules series. I jumped in at book 3, and prior events are mentioned, but I didn’t get the feeling that I needed full details of those events to appreciate or enjoy the story. As soon as I read the blurb, and learned that Cooper was a straight man questioning his sexuality I knew it was a must read. There’s a certain level of angst I find myself craving in books. This had it all.

Cooper Stanton and Ricky Burrows have known each other for a few years now. Ricky is Cooper’s sister Rebecca’s best friend and business partner. They have a tendency to clash because
Ricky always manages to get under Cooper’s skin. Cooper’s latest relationship has crashed and burned and he’s doing a lot of reflecting and wondering why he just can’t seem to find true love. He wants what his siblings have, true love and connection, but it continues to elude him.
