Review: Pinned

Image
Pinned by Kristal McKerrington My rating: 5 of 5 stars A very short read. But a very fine read. We first meet Alex, a Scottish wrestler who has travelled all the way to the States for the first time for his champion ship. Along the way, he meets Carrie, his agent and with a spirit of fire that amuses Alex a lot. They fight like cat and mouse through most of the book but of course there's the element of sizzling chemistry. There's no denial in that. Overall a very fine, fantastic, and fabulous book! This book is everything you would see in a sports-filled, sizzling, but short novel. I hope you enjoy! -J.B View all my reviews

Review: Because of Liam

Image
Because of Liam by Erica Alexander My rating: 0 of 5 stars Not interested in rating. But here’s the story and my general opinion. First of all, we meet logan’s brother Liam and he meets river. She makes quite an impression and then continues to give a hard time to Liam. I am not suprised when he dislikes her at first. And that’s oretty much it, in terms of what I read. Opinion: Well this book sucks, it does truly. Heck the first book was much more tolerable. This one, oh god help me for reading this, really just pissed me off, and was mostly due to river’s hard exterior. Poor Liam. And if he’s a marines guy, you really think they are going to be a polite, nice version of Prince Charming? Well then, you need to get your facts checked. Otherwise this is not a book to be recommended. Toodles, -J.B View all my reviews

Review: Unraveling You

Image
Unraveling You by Jessica Sorensen My rating: 5 of 5 stars Trying to hold back my tears as I write this review. Not really but regardless, it pulled at my heart strings. This is truly one awesome book! Starting in the novel we see Lyric Scott, a very sunshiny, happy, optimistic, bright girl who's always wanted to be a musician just like her dad but always feels she lacks that tragic feel and emotional regard to write heart-breaking but incredible lyrics. Meanwhile her next door neighbours are busy bringing in a new adoptee who she thinks is another one of them, since she sees them bringing in different kids almost every day. But this time there's something special in the adopted one brought in. Shoulder length black hair, piercing gray eyes, a scarred body and heart but ever searching for a happy life for himself, his name is Ayden. He intrigues her, with his despairing looks and heartbreaking story, and soon she feels for him, supports him a...

Review: All About You

Image
All About You by Joanna Mazurkiewicz My rating: 4 of 5 stars I honestly don't know what to say in proper sentences. But since I am writing this, I have to. This novel wasn't great but not terrible either. It was...good. In the novel we have India, the main female protagonist going to her favorite uni: Braxton along with her rich, spoiled best friend Dora (reminds me of Dora the explorer). Anyway... In the university, we then meet Oliver, enemy of India and brother to India's previous ex-boyfriend (not on friendly terms as you can see) (who had made Oliver's life miserable in high school basically). Anyway, Oliver, the male protagonist then plans revenge for what India did to him. It's all going great but then you know things don't always go according to plan (especially when you used to have a thing for that same person) They fall in love (at least India does) all over again but I told ya, things never do go to plan. And so th...

Review: Shameless

Image
Shameless by M. Malone My rating: 5 of 5 stars Well... Um... THIS NOVEL WAS FABULOUS! I shouldn't have to scream really, but there were some pretty great things about this novel. Like their SIZZLING chemistry! (Excuse me, I just fangirled a bit.) And the mystery, is definitely there, hiding but slowly emerging out the shadows, and definitely steps are taken to solve it. And of course, what a great bunch of friends, both characters have, honestly. They are honest, funny but helpful and supportive. No one could replace them in that novel. I say it. Regardless, there's epic chemistry, great family bonding, peeks into the past, and of course friendship with the rest of the gang. So this is a novel I absolutely recommend and I bet a hundred pennies you'd like it, if you are especially into a cup full of steamy romance, a dash of comedy, a pinch of friendship, and a quarter of a mystery, all rolling out into a steamy drink of your choice. Enjoy...

Review: Before Midnight

Image
Before Midnight by Jennifer Blackstream My rating: 5 of 5 stars This was a fabulous book. Hands down! Never thought the concept of werewolves would fit in with an old classic fairytale like Cinderella. But this author has proved me wrong! As we see in the beginning, We have Loupe, a cursed werewolf who lives with her stepmother and her two evil, cruel stepsisters, after her father dies. She is a servant to her family (like the fairytale) and in her responsibility to deal with whatever chores her stepmother has set for her. Then we get a glimpse of Prince Etienne (I just love French names) (Also our Prince Charming) who is enchanted by our lovely heroine, Loupe, vowing to see her again. But of course you know, you cannot have a story without a couple of twists. Let's just the stepsisters will do anything for the prince's hand and the monarchy. And the stepmother is not just calm, sophisticated. She is willing to be dirty to get her hands on wh...

Review: DARK MCKENNA, A Billionaire Dark Romance

Image
DARK MCKENNA, A Billionaire Dark Romance by Shayne Ford My rating: 2 of 5 stars Ah, the usual steamy romance with no paved road of continuity of a novel. The novel starts like this: We meet the main heroine, a girl who has no home, no luxury or basic necessities to live a normal life. After almost 3 chapters we figure out that she's a prostitute. I don't even know why the author didn't start with the fact that she is a prostitute from the beginning. Next comes the bad guy but still our hero who coincidentally becomes her next "client". They have a steamy encounter, then they don't meet again for some time. After a few weeks, he again shows up, "coincidentally" showing up and rescuing her from a group of goons (also his staff). They again have some steaming chemistry, then he again leaves her for a while. AGAIN after a few weeks, he meets with her, and you know the drill. But this time he sticks with her, showing he...
