REVIEW – SUNDAYS ARE FOR HANGOVERS

SYNOPSIS

For nearly a year, they’ve been at war.
Cops. Forks. Eggs.
Two feuding neighbors who couldn’t be more opposite, forced to live next door to one another.
Neither is backing down.

She drives him crazy with her loud nineties rap music.
He gets under her skin the way he obsesses over his stupid perfect lawn.

She fantasizes about having sex with the hot nerd—but with duct tape over his dumb mouth.
He has dirty dreams of the bombshell beauty where he bangs the crazy right out of her—nightmares of course.
Anger isn’t the only thing heating up between these two.

They think this is a battle only one of them can win…
The growing attraction between them, though, seems to be far more stubborn than the two of them combined.

 

 

*****Patty’s Review*****

*****5 STARS*****
{ARC Generously Provided by Authors}

”I’m yours, Lil. Fucked up and flawed. My past sucks. I’ve made a bunch of mistakes I’m embarrassed of. I just wanted to push them away and focus on my future. To focus on me and you because, baby, we aren’t ugly. Together we’re something pretty fucking amazing.” 

 

 

K. Webster and J.D. Hollyfield have written another hilarious and incredibly steamy romantic comedy! ”SUNDAYS ARE FOR HANGOVERS”, is an enemies-to-lovers story that is sure to be a smashing hit for these two authors. I hope that they continue to collaborate because their writing chemistry is pure gold! I will, without a doubt, read anything published by this duo.

I loved this book from beginning to end. It was a laugh-out-loud and panty melting good time. The plot was entertaining and the main characters were equally lovable. The couple had incredible chemistry. You could feel the sexual tension vibrating between them from the very start. Will Grant is one hell of a sexy nerd with his glasses and bow ties. Glasses and bow ties may sound unappealing but they work for him. Will is also one seriously HOT Alpha male!

 

 

Will and Lilith are next door neighbors who have been carrying on a bitter feud for the past year. Will is the president of the neighborhood association and has harassed Lil on more than one occasion for numerous offenses. The two take turns playing pranks on each other, but through it all, they both can’t deny they feel an attraction between them.

After one heated argument, Will can no longer control his desires and the two end up having explosive sex which only leaves them wanting more. The couple develops a feverish addiction for each other, but both Will and Lilith are holding something back that could end up tearing them apart.

 

 

Will secrets from their pasts put an end to their romance?

LIVE – I FLIPPING LOVE YOU by Helena Hunting

 

 

 

SUMMARY:

SHE’S GOT CURB APPEAL. HE’S A FIXER UPPER…

From New York Times bestselling author Helena Hunting comes I Flipping Love You, a love story about flipping houses, taking risks, and landing that special someone who’s move-in ready.

Rian Sutter grew up with the finer things in life. Spending summers in the Hamptons was a normal occurrence for her until her parents lost everything years ago. Now Rian and her sister are getting their life, and finances, back on track through real estate. Not only do they buy and sell houses to the rich and famous but they finally have the capital to flip their very own beachfront property. But when she catches the attention of a sexy stranger who snaps up every house from under her, all bets are off…

Pierce Whitfield doesn’t normally demo kitchens, install dry wall, or tear apart a beautiful woman’s dreams. He’s just a down-on-his-luck lawyer who needed a break from the city and agreed to help his brother work on a few homes in the Hamptons. When he first meets Rian, the attraction is undeniable. But when they start competing for the same pieces of prime real estate, the early sparks turn into full-blown fireworks. Can these passionate rivals turn up the heat on their budding romance—without burning down the house?

“Fun, sexy, and full of heart…Helena Hunting has done it again!”—USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow (on Shacking Up)

About THE IMPOSSIBLE VASTNESS OF US:

“I know how to watch my back. I’m the only one that ever has.”

India Maxwell hasn’t just moved across the country—she’s plummeted to the bottom rung of the social ladder. It’s taken years to cover the mess of her home life with a veneer of popularity. Now she’s living in one of Boston’s wealthiest neighborhoods with her mom’s fiancé and his daughter, Eloise. Thanks to her soon-to-be stepsister’s clique of friends, including Eloise’s gorgeous, arrogant boyfriend Finn, India feels like the one thing she hoped never to be seen as again: trash.

But India’s not alone in struggling to control the secrets of her past. Eloise and Finn, the school’s golden couple, aren’t all they seem to be. In fact, everyone’s life is infinitely more complex than it first appears. And as India grows closer to Finn and befriends Eloise, threatening the facades that hold them together, what’s left are truths that are brutal, beautiful, and big enough to change them forever…

EXCERPT:

“India, I’m not using her. I mean, I am, but it’s not like that. Eloise is getting what she wants out of this relationship, as well.”

“Like what?”

“I can’t tell you.”

“You are using her.”

“I’m not.” His chair screeched as he pulled it closer so our knees touched. His dark eyes moved over my face and I sucked in my breath at the open appreciation I saw there. “I’m not using her…but we are in a relationship together. I guess it just never occurred to me that I might actually meet someone in high school. Someone I…”

That feeling in my chest, that thick, hot feeling, threatened to overwhelm me at all the things he wasn’t saying. “Finn, Eloise is going to be my family.”

He looked so forlorn it took everything within me not to reach for him.

“What is it you’re hiding?”

“I can’t tell you. Please, just trust me.”

Hurt and frustration swept through me in equal measure but I tamped it down. It wasn’t my place to demand his secrets.

My frustration was suddenly mirrored in his eyes as he looked up at me. “I wish things were different.”

But they weren’t different. And yet they were the same, history repeating itself. I cared about someone and they didn’t care enough about me back to be honest about what was really going on.

I didn’t know if I was angry at Finn or just angry that nothing ever seemed to be easy for me. Everything was always a fight.

It felt like I lived in a constant clusterfuck.

I gave a huff of laughter. “Story of my life.” I shook my head, grabbed up my bag and, unable to look at him, said, “Thank you for your help tonight.”

“You’re not leaving without me.”

His protectiveness confused and pissed me off even more. “I’m not? Funny, it looks like that’s exactly what I’m doing.”

His familiar scowl was back in place at my sarcasm. “You’re also not going home alone after what happened here. I’ll give you a ride.”

“Finn.” I slumped, suddenly feeling exhausted. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

Sadness flittered through his eyes before he managed a carefully blank expression. “I think I can handle driving you home.”

Still a trembling mess after everything that had happened, I gave in and followed Finn out to his car.

The tension that we’d shared before was nothing compared to how it was now. Now that Finn had in a roundabout way admitted he liked me and I’d realized that what I was feeling for him was attraction, the tension could not be mistaken for anything else but sexual.

I’d never felt anything like it before—it was the most frustrating, scary and exhilarating feeling in the world.

When we eventually pulled up outside the house, the guilt washed over me. I shouldn’t be feeling this way about Eloise’s boyfriend and he certainly shouldn’t be feeling this way about me.

I felt like we were to blame for the whole thing but I didn’t know why.

I hadn’t asked the universe to make Finn like me.

And I had definitely not intended to like him in return.

“India,” he said just as I moved to get out of his car. “I’ve never really cared what anybody thought of me before…but I really don’t want you to think I’m a bad person.”

I stared into his beautiful eyes. “I can’t imagine ever thinking you’re a bad person. I meant it earlier…thank you for coming for me tonight. I’ll never forget it.”

“This feels weirdly like a goodbye,” he said with a bitter twist to his gorgeous lips.

“Maybe it is. I guess we’re both just a complication the other doesn’t need.”

Slowly, so slowly my heart had time to increase in hard, steady thumps, Finn slid his hand over the center console between us and stroked his thumb along the side of my hand. I felt that simple touch in every nerve, my body reacting to it in a way it never had to the touches and deep kisses that had come before it.

I stared at our hands for a moment, wondering how different my life could be if Finn wasn’t Eloise’s boyfriend, if we’d just met as strangers at school, felt the inexplicable bond between us and were free to do something about it.

Suddenly very aware of how long I’d been sitting outside the house in his car, I fumbled for the door handle. “See you around, Finn.”

by K Webster and Dani René

Dating is difficult for someone like me.

How many cats are too many cats anyway?
My boring world stays that way…
Until my future stepmother’s STALKER shows up.

BLOG TOUR – THE CONTROVERSIAL PRINCESS (Smoke & Mirrors, #1) by Jodi Ellen Malpas

TCP_BLOG TOUR.jpg

The Controversial Princess by Jodi Ellen Malpas
Publication Date: May 22nd, 2018
Genre: Contemporary Romance

TCP Final Cover

Her father is The King of England.

She is The Controversial Princess.

Regarded as down to earth by the press and rebellious by The King, Princess Adeline refuses to bow to the royal expectations her title carries. She knows better than anyone that the united front of the royal family is nothing but smoke and mirrors – lies and secrets masked by power and privilege. She wants no part of it, and she will never surrender to The King’s demand to marry a man she does not love. But despite Adeline’s determination to retain her free will, she remains deeply unfulfilled, feeling caged and suffocated.

That is until she meets Josh Jameson. Drawn in by his confidence, Adeline is soon captivated by the scandalously sexy American actor. His ability to penetrate her defences overwhelms her – his touch is pure fire, and his allure overpowering. Nothing has ever made her feel so alive in a world where she’s otherwise slowly drowning. However, while Josh may be Hollywood royalty, he’s not actual royalty, and Adeline knows The King and his advisors will do everything in their power to keep them apart.

But Josh Jameson becomes the princess’s ultimate vice.

And although she bows to no one, she bows to him.

WRAPPED UP IN READING’s REVIEW OF THE CONTROVERSIAL PRINCESS

TCP_TEASER_6.jpg

Excerpt:

Leaning over, he kisses the tip of my nose. “Now, food’s on the way. We’ll have a carpet picnic, what do ya say?”

“I’ve never had a carpet picnic before.”

“Say what?” He looks horrified. “Never?”

My shoulders jump up on a little shrug. “It’s all fine dining, posh china, and solid silver cutlery at a table that’s so shiny you can see your face in it.”

“Then tonight we fix that.” He pulls me up and walks us through to the lounge. “Get all the cushions on the floor.” He pulls a throw off the back of a chair and wafts it into the air while I pull all the cushions from the couch. I watch as Josh gets on his hands and knees and starts pulling at the corners of the blanket, straightening it out and placing cushions.

I have a permanent smile on my face, fascinated by his deep concentration. “You are doing a tremendously good job,” I say, clearing my face of my smile when his motions falter and he looks up at me. One of his eyes narrows, and in a lightning move, he snatches my wrist and yanks me down to the floor. I cry in surprise, being rolled to my back until I’m once again pinned against something by his body. Not that I’m complaining. Would never dream of it. I blow a tickling hair from my nose and grin at him.

“You’re making fun of me.” He dips and bites the end of my nose.

“Not at all.” I chuckle, squirming beneath him while he makes a meal of my face.

“Too good for a carpet picnic, are you? You want a throne?”

“Definitely not,” I blurt. “Unless your face will be my throne.”

Josh pulls back speedily on a little choke, his eyes bulging. I press my lips together as he stares at me in shock, like how could such a vulgar thing have fallen from the lips of a princess? “I think I just fell in love with you.”

It’s my turn to choke. “Blimey, you fall easily, don’t you?”

“Actually, I don’t fall at all.”

“No?”

He shakes his head. “Baby, I’ll be your throne any day of the week.”

“Honored.”

“It is me who’s honored. It’s not every day a real-life princess tells you she wants to sit on your face.”

Laughter erupts from deep within me, my eyes clenching shut, my head thrown back. My position and lack of control gives Josh the perfect opportunity to ravish my throat. And he does, growling dramatically, squirming above me…rubbing me.

Jodi Ellen Malpas - Kerry Ann Duffy Photography053.jpg

Meet Jodi:

Jodi Ellen Malpas wrote her debut series, The This Man Trilogy, in secret, worried about what people might think if they knew what her imagination was capable of. She was shocked herself. But she finally found the courage to unleash her creative streak and self-published THIS MAN – the first book of the This Man Trilogy – in October 2012. She took a chance on the story with a hero who soon became one of modern day fictions most prolific alpha male characters. Jesse Ward – also affectionately known as The Lord of The Manor, sparked incredible reactions from women across the globe and catapulted Jodi into the world of women’s fiction.

Jodi went on to self-publish the second book in the trilogy, Beneath This Man in Jan 2013, just before Grand Central Publishing, part of the Hachette Book Group, picked up the popular trilogy and the unknown Jodi. The third book of the trilogy, This Man Confessed, took Jodi to the top of the bestsellers lists, earning her the proud title of #1 New York Times Bestselling Author. This Man has since been voted one of the top romance novels of all time.

With so much love, enthusiasm and a thirst for her words from her readers, Jodi suddenly wasn’t afraid of her imagination anymore. She went on to write The One Night Trilogy with the delectable and mysterious Miller Hart, and stole the hearts of her readers once again. Her first stand-alone novel, THE PROTECTOR, released in September 2016 and has since been nominated for a Reviewers’ Choice Best Book Award. Jodi’s next stand-alone novel. THE FORBIDDEN, is set for release in August 2017.

All seven of her published novels have hit the New York Times best sellers list – as well as the Sunday Times list and various international best seller lists. Her work is now published in over 24 languages across the world.

Jodi was born and raised in the Midlands town of Northampton, England, where she lives with her two boys and a beagle. She is a self-professed daydreamer, a mojito addict, is famous for her obsession with Converse, and has a terrible weak spot for Alpha Males. Writing powerful love stories and creating addictive characters has become her passion – a passion she now shares with her devoted readers

Snag a gorgeous rental on the beach. Check.

Get a job at a trendy summer haunt. Check.

How to screw up a great summer in the Hamptons:

Fall for the one guy with a dark leather jacket, scruff on his face, and intense eyes that doesn’t fit in with the rest of the tony looking crowd. A guy you can’t have when you’ll be leaving at the end of the season.

Check. Check. Check.

I should add—especially when the guy is your sexy, tattooed God of a boss.

Especially when he not only owns your place of employment but inherited half of the town.

Especially when he’s mean to you.

Or so I thought.

Until one night when he demanded I get in his car so he could drive me home because he didn’t want me walking in the dark.

That was sort of how it all started with Rush.

And then little by little, some of the walls of this hardass man started to come down.

I never expected that the two of us, seemingly opposites from the outside, would grow so close.

I wasn’t supposed to fall for the rebel heir, especially when he made it clear he didn’t want to cross the line with me.

As the temperature turned cooler, the nights became hotter. My summer became a lot more interesting—and complicated.

All good things must come to an end, right?

Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.

And although she bows to no one, she bows to him.

I’m hauled closer to him, my legs curling around his waist, my hold of him solid as our tongues dance, swirl, and plunge over and over. He tastes divine, feels divine. He is my heaven.

 

 

Get ready to go on a thoroughly scandalous and steamy journey with England’s most beloved and rebellious Royals…Princess Adeline Lockhart. She has got to be one of Jodi Ellen Malpas’s most strong-willed and bad ass Heroines! There hasn’t been a man yet who has managed to tame her, including her father, King Alfred of England. Fans of this amazing author are in for loads of her signature angst and fever-inducing steam. Not to mention another sinfully gorgeous, domineering alpha who is sure to get your hearts racing!

Princess Adeline is turning 30 and her father, the King, is demanding that she marry a man that he has deemed suitable for his daughter. The problem is, Adeline wants no part of this marriage. She refuses to marry a man she is not in love with and she’s not afraid to stand up to her father. She’s definitely one of her father’s biggest headaches’! Adeline jumps from one man to another. Never attempting to have a serious relationship because she knows anyone who is not considered an appropriate suitor will be chased off by the King and his minions. No man has ever been able to make her pulse race or to lose her composure until she meets Josh Jameson, Hollywood’s biggest and Oscar-winning actor. From the moment they meet there is no denying the out of this world attraction between them.

 

 

They waste no time in becoming intimate with each other. I have to admit I was shocked that a proper Princess would let an almost complete stranger debase her so quickly. Josh likes to dominate and Adeline is all too easily submitting to his will. This does end up freaking her out and she pushes Josh away to try and hold on to some form of control but after just a taste there is no way Josh is giving up on Adeline. Forbidden fruit is always the most tempting.

Adeline struggles with her overwhelming desire for Josh. He’s the first man who has sparked so many intense feelings inside of her and it scares her. She’s never allowed herself to get close to any man because she knows her father will ensure they disappear from her life. Not only is she afraid of losing Josh, she knows he’s only in England for a short time and is convinced that he sees her as another notch on his bedpost. But Josh truly seems to be a man with an out of control addiction when it comes to Adeline. He’s hooked and he will do whatever it takes to spend time with the beautiful Princess.

 

 

King Alfred always has eyes on his daughter. She’s never been able to keep secrets from him for too long. Will the two lovers be able to keep their romance from the King? Does Josh have genuine feelings for Adeline and if so, is there any possible way they can have more than a few stolen moments when their relationship would surely be condemned by the King?

REVIEW – REBEL HEART (Rush Series Duet, #2) by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

SYNOPSIS

From New York Times Bestselling authors Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland, comes the second book in a new, sexy duet. A full summer in a beach house became a lot more interesting when I met my new boss. More interesting…and complicated.

 

 

*****Dee’s Review*****

4.5 Rebel Stars*****

OMG!!! Be still my heart…

Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland are going to be responsible for some really STRONG heart palpitations, my poor ticker can hardly take it. Rush and Gia were such an amazing couple; never predictable and their chemistry, was super hot, off the charts.

 

 

Rush being a Rebel through and through, had a hard time accepting the situation surrounding Gia. On one side he could hardly keep away from her, but on the other, thinking about the cards they’ve been dealt with, made his head doubt that he could ever be the man she needs him to be.

Rush kept struggling, not knowing how to deal with the messed up situation, and even though the only thing he is sure of is the fierce love he feels for Gia, he’s not sure there could be a future with them.

For Gia the hardest part was having to see Rush every day, protecting her, spoiling her, yet not being able to be with her. Her love and craving for Rush are unlike anything she’s ever felt before and it was killing her to have to give him space to sort things out.

As these two lovers figure out their future, us readers go on a crazy journey, packed with a lot of angst and uncertainty. Luckily for us, these two authors come through with one amazing conclusion to this highly gratifying read.

Book one and two were both equally amazing. I always love it when Penelope and Vi write books together, and this duet makes the perfect summer, romance read. Simply fantastic!

Get ready for a ton of angst and pulse-quickening steam in this conclusion to the ”Rush Series Duet”. Keeland and Ward have yet again managed to write another fabulous story that is sure to keep their readers engrossed until the very end! I’ve loved so many of their charismatic Heroes and Rush is definitely being added to the list!

Just when Rush and Gia have fallen head over heels in love they are thrown an unexpected curveball that complicates their new relationship, but they soon realize that their feelings are too strong to walk away from each other. Then, an even bigger surprise is revealed and this one is devastating and a tough pill for Rush to swallow. It ends up developing into a huge rift between Rush and Gia. No matter how upsetting the news is, the two are still madly in love and neither time nor distance can diminish their feelings.

Their relationship will be put to the test in more ways than one which is what I attribute the overabundance of angst to in this story! But if you have read any of the books these two authors have written then you know that in the end, you will not be disappointed!

Here are my overall ratings
