Now, Player will have to devote his every breath to convincing Zyah to give him a second chance. Because she might be the only one who can save him from himself.…

Wow, this novel is ripe with exciting paranormal spy woo-woo. Meaning what a reader ultimately finds out is that there is a most unusual, diabolical paranormal-esque scientific kind of potential for extreme intrigue and damage stemming from the exuberant pursuit of ‘what-if?” from a genius mind. Sounds convoluted? Readers are in for a wild time before they even get to that exciting bit of story reveal. Never mind the mental landmines that dog the hero, Player, throughout the novel plus sized adventure. This is one romance story that has so many irons in the fire, that a reader will be hard-pressed to put it down, even for a minute.

The story opens with a crisis narrowly averted, only to tumble into another one, and another bigger one that is terrorizing residents in the town, only to discover that there is another one on top of all of them that seems much more sinister and worrisome. Player and Zyah have the hardest hurdles to jump in order to reach their happy ever after but it’s all worth it. I assure you.

The hot, graphic demands of the physical nature of a dominate man in the bedroom is met head to head, heat to heat by the heroine, and Zyah gives as good as she gets. She’s a strong woman in her own right and she stands up for herself whenever it’s required of her, yet she’s compassionate, loving and loyal. All good qualities that will help Player heal and overcome some of his worst nightmares. Fans of the series will understand where those nightmares stem from, and what the nature of them will most likely be.

This romance novel is well-written, exciting, has lots of depth with opportunities for readers to feel like they’re in the thick of things, and enough hot and heavy sheet action to appeal to the habanero level of romance readers.

Some of my favorite scenes in the book all seem to happen at The Floating Hat. I believe readers are going to giggle, laugh or chortle at the antics of Preacher and Sabelia. It was completely out of character for Preacher to get all frantically excited, demanding, rapturous and argumentative all at the same time. It was comical and I enjoyed every sentence. I hope those fiery sparks mean something for a future book. That would be cool. But other things happen at The Floating Hat that aren’t as comical but no less fascinating. I enjoyed the time the author had her characters spend there.

The HEA is great and it was written well, giving me assurance that Player and Zyah are going to be okay. There will still be subjects they’ll have to work out, but that is actually realistic to life. As time goes on and people learn more about the other, compromise, forgiveness, laughter and love will see them through. The heroine and hero have a strong base to work from.

Parts of the ending wrap-up were anti-climactic. There was such a buildup that I had high expectations and yet once all the cards are on the table, I thought to myself, “That’s it? That’s all there is?” The interpretation of the eyes and how it ends felt like a letdown. As weird as this sounds, I thought it resolved too fast, too … happy? Considering how stressed everyone was, with good reason, you’d think I’d be happy it eventually led to something surprisingly unpredictable, but I’m kind of not. Not totally, anyway. Perhaps my anticipation was because of misinterpretation? I don’t know and it’ll be up to readers to decide for themselves.

Overall, Reckless Road is a wonderful addition to the series and quite a good read. It kept my interest from the first chapter until the very end and there was a lot of emotion and feelings affected along the way. I liked Player and Zyah, her grandmother, Anat, and a few other characters. The feeling of family is still solid and I think it’s one of the strong points of the novel and series as a whole. I think fans of the series are going to like this one. I know I did.

Welcome back to Camino Island, where anything can happen—even a murder in the midst of a hurricane, which might prove to be the perfect crime . . .

Just as Bruce Cable’s Bay Books is preparing for the return of bestselling author Mercer Mann, Hurricane Leo veers from its predicted course and heads straight for the island. Florida’s governor orders a mandatory evacuation, and most residents board up their houses and flee to the mainland, but Bruce decides to stay and ride out the storm.

The hurricane is devastating: homes and condos are leveled, hotels and storefronts ruined, streets flooded, and a dozen people lose their lives. One of the apparent victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce’s and an author of thrillers. But the nature of Nelson’s injuries suggests that the storm wasn’t the cause of his death: He has suffered several suspicious blows to the head.

Who would want Nelson dead? The local police are overwhelmed in the aftermath of the storm and ill equipped to handle the case. Bruce begins to wonder if the shady characters in Nelson’s novels might be more real than fictional. And somewhere on Nelson’s computer is the manuscript of his new novel. Could the key to the case be right there—in black and white? As Bruce starts to investigate, what he discovers between the lines is more shocking than any of Nelson’s plot twists—and far more dangerous.

Camino Winds is an irresistible romp and a perfectly thrilling beach read—# 1 bestselling author John Grisham at his beguiling best.

There are twists, turns and that’s just the storm! The story has it’s own punches and a thwack with a golf club!

I’d read the first book in the Camino series, Camino Island, and wanted to get back to Bruce’s world. Honestly, I liked Bruce, even though he’s portrayed as older than his seemingly 47 years. I got the idea he was in his sixties. Oh well. I liked him as the hero of this story. He’s got rough edges, he’s not perfect and he’s a bit of a pistol. I rooted him on.

Now I have to admit this book has so many twists and turns. There’s the hurricane that comes in and there is the dead body. Now a dead body in the midst of a storm isn’t all that shocking–it happens–but this is murder. I liked how the author wove the story of Nelson’s demise and kept me riveted throughout. I honestly didn’t see the end coming.

If you’re looking for a slower moving story with a cast of characters you’ll want to have as friends, then this might be the book for you.

Overall I found this short story to be well paced and very steamy – a good quick read and enjoyable.

I really enjoyed the set up of how Nia and Travis met and found it refreshing and different enough it didn’t come across as forced or cliched to me. I also was pleased the author gave a fair bit of time in the story for Nia and Travis to spend together to get to know each other. In a number of ways Nia was in quite a vulnerable position and was trying hard to be self-sufficient and independent. While it would have been easy for Travis to be dominant and take over a lot of Nia’s life she wasn’t portrayed in the story as really wanting that and so them getting to know each other and allow the relationship to develop more naturally felt both more romantic but also a lot more realistic to me.

I was really pleased Travis and Nia took this extra time but I was a little disappointed a lot of this happened “off screen” and we didn’t get to see too much of it. With the short length of the story I sortof understand this – particularly since there was a fair bit of other plot happening around Nia getting settled in her new town, and her abusive brother chasing after her – but Travis and Nia’s relationship was quite central to my mind and it would have been nice to see them learning more about each other and starting this new relationship.

Readers who like some steamy sex should be satisfied with this story. While there is a bit of daddy-kink, Travis and Nia start out a little more vanilla and traditional and I feel this should really suit readers who aren’t too sure about this new genre of erotica. I feel this story is a good way to dip your toe in and the story didn’t feel to me like it was too hard core.

With some interesting plot, strong characters and a few well-written supporting characters this is a great, quick read and one I enjoyed.

Zane Sanders, lead singer of Just Short of Chaos, surprised everyone, including himself, when he plucked a fan out of the audience at one of his concerts.

I don’t know what possessed me to do it. I’d never done anything like that before. But something about Grace drew me to her. And within minutes of pulling her on stage, I knew I’d made one of the best decisions of my life. Since our drummer Devin’s overdose, I’d felt dead inside. Perhaps for even longer than that. But Grace was fun, sexy—and as I would discover later—good and selfless. And an irresistible magic surrounded us that made me feel alive again.

That is, until I blew it. In classic Zane style. Funny thing is, when I first got Grace up on stage, I had no idea what to do with her. Now I have no idea what I’ll do without her.

Grace Devlin was living out every girl’s fantasy.

That was evident the moment I—the girl who normally had to be dragged out onto the dance floor—practically became a pole dancer in his arms. Then it happened. The moment everyone kept referring to as “The Kiss.” But it was all part of the show, right? It didn’t matter that Zane made more than my feet move. He stirred up feelings that scared the crap out of me. The depth of his sadness called out to me even more than his unbelievable sex appeal, and that was saying something.

But it could never work between us. He may have come from a small town like me, but he was all rock star now and totally out of my league. I was a flower shop owner, not his saving Grace.

Are some actions beyond forgiveness or will he be rocked by Grace?

Oh my word, oh my gosh, this is my fantasy put into print. I read the synopsis and I was immediately interested in reading this story. It reminded me of the Bruce Springsteen video “Dancing in the Dark” where he pulled Courtney Cox on stage. I remember being disappointed when I learned she was hired to play the role of the adoring fan in the front row. I still had hope of this fantasy becoming real but with Jon Bon Jovi. Ha, ha….This was a fun read for me. It was like eating my favorite sweet candy, complete sugar high.

I fell in love with all the characters and I’m pumped that it’s book one in the series (Love and Chaos). There was an excerpt at the end for book two and now I’m dying for it’s release date. A funny tidbit was while I was reading this story – Justin Bieber’s new song, Lonely, came on. It made me think of the leading character, Zane.

Zane was exactly how I imagine my hero to be in my fantasy. The heroine, Grace, was better than I imagined. I love how Grace was developed. She lived up to her name. Together they “rocked” my world. The chemistry between them was more than sensual. I have to lean more to the spicy cinnamon side of candy on that one.

The synopsis states “Are some actions beyond forgiveness?”. Not in this case. I hope Zane and Grace make an appearance in book two. I didn’t want the story to end. I want more.

I totally recommend reading Rocked by Grace if you are at all a groupie in real life with crushes on famous people. It’s an easy read full of romance.

Now, she has to survive. But how is she supposed to do that on her own? And how can she ever trust her heart again when all it wants is the Shadow Demon she can never have?

I don’t think the blurb does this novella justice. It’s true that Lamb, the heroine, stumbles into the middle of a corporate war, or that her brains, intellect and performance in college got her a dream job at the wrong moment in time, but Lamb has a strength to her personality that the blurb doesn’t credit. This is truly Lamb’s story. The tale is told in third person POV from Lamb’s perspective. The author did a wonderful job of writing – even though the heroine doesn’t know everything the hero is thinking, she overhears things, or people share things with her that allow a reader to find out what they want to know without head hopping or telling. It’s through dialogue and observations made by the heroine. It’s a complete picture and I appreciated that.

Lamb’s character is reflective of the current times. It’s not unheard of for a single woman to enjoy the physical side of a fling while on vacation in a sunny clime. The author explores that path with the heroine because it’s key to a plot point later on. The author provides a reader with hints that Lamb picks up on, but she doesn’t recognize the gravity of what they mean, until much, much later.

Azriel, the hero, is rich, smart, alpha, and up to something. Lamb is suspicious but after her other experience, she’s viewing her growing attachment and possible relationship with Azriel a little differently. As well she should, because the hero is like no man she’s ever known. Any similarities between the two main men in the story are surface only. Ms. Karland draws a picture of the other guy so clearly, it’s easy to believe he’s a bad man in the making. Again, just how bad is shown later on when Lamb finally has all the info she needs to know which one is the hero, and which one’s not. She’d probably pass on that scene if she could, it was quite intense.

I wanted to give this novella a higher rating because the tale is fascinating, the writing is tight where it needs to be and I enjoyed the sparks that fly between Azriel and Lamb. What made me stumble was my confusion. I recognize some names from previous stories, but that’s all they were, names, names that I felt were thrown in for effect. The other guy that pops up from time to time also startled me. What was his role? It was so tiny that it seems if he were to be cut from the story, it wouldn’t have mattered. Maybe I missed something? I do remember him playing a role in other stories, but they were important and vital to plot movements in them. But, for this novella? I don’t know, but it caused me confusion and it broke up the flow of the story, which for the most part, was otherwise quite good.

Now, this book being of the graphic relationship kind – with the bedroom door practically off its hinges, readers looking for those scenes will find them in all their spicy glory. The variety of antics should provide something for everyone.

All in all, Demon’s Little Lamb is a good read, has plenty to offer readers of the hot-off-the-charts variety of stories, and the romance between Azriel and Lamb, though a bit rocky because of the plot conflict, (which was well done) was enjoyable and entertaining. I had fun reading this novella.

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness. Every time I say that I think of the movie, Annie. It’s totally irrelevant but that is how I feel after finishing Cupid Returns to the Lonesome Buzzard Ranch.

A significant amount of time has passed since I finished the first book but I was pleased that it all came back to me once I started reading book two. I can see how this could be read as a standalone but I just can’t suggest that with good conscience. The overall experience is more fulfilling if they are read in consecutive order. In fact, when the series is complete, I think I’ll go back and binge read all of them again.

I didn’t hesitate this time reading a book with multiple romances going on since I didn’t have an issue with the first book in the series. I dove in with confidence that I’d be treated with an entertaining read. I suggest the reader to check out the synopsis and decide if they think it sounds too busy for them or not. I typically would have a hard time with this type of romance book but Hebby Roman is one of my trusted authors. I know her writing style will smoothly guide me through the transitions.

Once again, I can’t pick which was my favorite couple. However, I’d lean towards Christine and Connor. They made me laugh the most. Each couple is unique and lovable. I got an extra chuckle because I actually read this book on Valentine’s Day. I can’t think of a better holiday to read a romance book. There was an abundance of love in the air today.

There is a flow to the author’s writing style that keeps the pace moving forward, creating a need to read faster, flip those pages to find out what happens next and delivers a feeling of satisfaction from the outcome.

Grizzly and May’s story and romance, though novella in length, had everything I look for in a book. I had fun, was entertained and was very happy with the wrap up epilogue. For readers who enjoy the hot stuff, in other words, graphic physical relationships, then they’ll find that here too, but it’s not heavy-handed at all. I think that’s because of the heroine. May is a novice and the author treated that with respect. There is enough description to deliver some hot-under-the-collar moments but it’s not hardcore like some of the other books in the series.

There are a few short scenes that might make a reader uncomfortable because of the nature of the threat, but it’s only enough to validate the plot and justify the comeuppance the villains eventually get. I don’t think a reader can be unmoved by what May had to briefly endure, but rest assured Grizzly earns his title of ‘hero’.

There are descriptive passages about the club … girls, but nothing readers of the series will be surprised about.

Grizzly is a well-written romance story, with heat, action and a happy ever after that thoroughly satisfies.

Lyssa — I should have known I’d end up with a biker. Most of my friends sighed over men in suits. Not me. I always liked a bad boy in grease-stained jeans. Probably comes with being raised by a club President. My daddy didn’t raise a fool, but my mother raised a dreamer. And if there’s one thing I’ve dreamt about the last few years, it’s Beast. He’s big. All alpha. But more importantly, the first time I see him in person, the moment our lips touch, I know he’s going to be mine. I might have been the princess of the Dixie Reapers, but I was meant to be his queen.

To find out if cialis generic tabs you really suffer from ED, it is not often to blame. buy cheap levitra icks.org You must visit the psychiatry clinic in Bhopal. There are several male enhancement pills available in the market, viagra store but intake of healthy food makes the best choice. Your diet plan should involve only essential nutrients like- vitamin, protein, omega-3, cialis order zinc, iron etc. Beast — A goddess walked into my clubhouse and turned my life upside down… in the best of ways. Just one problem. Well, two. The first is that my little pixie-sized honey isn’t just any woman. Her daddy is the President of another club, and her grandfather is a world-renowned assassin. And secondly, trouble is on her heels. The punk who thinks he can take what’s mine is easily dealt with, but going toe to toe with Torch and Casper VanHorne is enough to leave any man shaking in his boots.

Good thing I’m not just any man. I’m Beast. President of the Reckless Kings MC. And I’m the man who’s going to claim Lyssa, even if I have to knock her up to do it.

Ms. Wylde knows how to balance all the important elements of drama, romance, and the intricacies that make reading MC romances so addicting. Yes, the bedroom door is wide open in panorama vision, so-to-speak, with the addition of toys and other paraphernalia that make this hot level of romance go supernova. The story opens up with a heady dose of urgency with guns drawn and alpha males in protective mode. The excitement keeps building from there.

I really liked meeting Lyssa and I agree she’s perfect for Beast, the hero. And he certainly did earn his label of hero. Lyssa is from the Dixie Reapers and I have read quite a few of those stories so it was a treat to see her have her own. She proved that she is a confident, strong woman who knows exactly how to deal with Prospects who aren’t up to snuff.

There is a level of violence that is to be expected in an MC romance. I sometimes find it unrealistic to believe that anyone headed ‘for a shallow grave’, won’t ever be missed and that it’s that easy to get rid of Prospects with criminal intent, or even villains. Somehow, that Old West mentality can’t survive under the scrutiny of the 21st Century. I think that’s the only over-the-top, unrealistic element in the story. I’m not saying I don’t like it – it’s kind of nice to think that truly evil and twisted individuals get their permanent comeuppance, and the guys in white hats (or are they dusty gray?) are so clever about it, they never get caught and everyone they love is now safe because of their preemptive, proactive actions. Sometimes, you have to get a little violent to get the street cred that makes people think twice. Fortunately, Lyssa’s grandfather has that level of respect in spades.

Beast was a fun read, provided great escapism, included a wonderful romance between Lyssa and Beast, and I was thoroughly entertained from beginning to end. For those that prefer volcanic bedroom action, be prepared to grab the ice tray because Ms. Wylde delivered.
