Pack Rule #2: Always protect your mate.
I protected my country. Protected my platoon.
Now all I wanted to protect was her.
Too bad that wasn’t an option.
I couldn’t fall for the beautiful slip of a female.
The baby sister of my brother’s new mate.
She was way too young. Way too human.
Still in college. And too bright a force of nature.
She had her whole life ahead of her.
And I had the Green Berets begging me to reenlist.
But my wolf… he wanted her.
But if I let her go without claiming her,
I might not survive the moon madness.

Review: Okay so I'm going to jump right into this & admit that I messed up. *face palm* I completely forgot that this was book 2 in a series so I was confused & felt like I was missing something when I first started this book. I stopped reading after 2 chapters & went back to read the first book Rough. While it isn't strictly necessary to read book 1 before reading book 2 it definitely helped me understand the dynamics better.

Anyways after all that kerfuffle I was able to sit back and enjoy the story. I mean seriously this book has it all! Sexy cowboys, shifters, insta-love & CRAZY HOT SEXY TIMES! I definitely love these two authors writing together. One of my favorite series of all time is Rose's Zandian Masters series & I am a huge fan of basically all of Vale's cowboys! So getting to have the combination of the two was amazing.

Colton & Marina's story definitely starts off with a bang. *wink wink* There really isn't much build up. Like I said it's insta-love but it's also insta-lust. I think Alexa Riley would be proud! There isn't much I can really say about their story that surprised me. I knew what was coming & that was fine with me, I was still entertained but I would have liked a bit more drama, maybe a villain but all in all it was still a good read. I would give it a 4 out of 5*****

They can handle anything. Even falling in love under quarantine.

Love Under Quarantine, an all-new sweet and sexy strangers-to-lovers romance from New York Times bestselling authors Kylie Scott and Audrey Carlan, is available now.

While the world is ravaged by a global pandemic, hotshot NFL running back Evan Sparks is locked in his own personal hell. With a career-ending scandal on his back, Evan hides out in his best friend’s empty San Francisco home, the full city shutdown locking him in a lonely twenty-story apartment in the sky.

Romance writer Sadie Walsh is having the worst case of writer’s block ever…until the incredible, muscular stranger staying next door gets her muse going strong. The pair of loners, never expecting to find a friend in all the madness, meet each day out on their balconies like a modern-day Romeo and Juliet.

Each new day brings unique challenges for the pair as they navigate the unknown and find solace together. They quickly figure out that as long as they have one another, they can handle anything.

Even falling in love under quarantine.

***

Writing together for the first time, New York Times bestselling authors Kylie Scott and Audrey Carlan team up to tell a story that not only is a beautiful escape during a trying time, but a true lesson on the power of humanity’s ability to survive. Through a sexy, hopeful, strangers-to-lovers romance, the authors prove with love, trust, and faith, we can conquer anything.

Review

Let me start this with a little word to all the haters out there. A lot of you are hating on Kylie & Audrey for writing this book but in reality this book can HELP people. People out there need the message that this book brings. That even in these crazy uncertain times good things can happen. If it offends you or you find the premise upsetting, don't read it. It's as simple as that. Just don't read it. There is no room for hate right now. We need positive vibes not negative ones. We need love & that's why I absolutely adored this book.

Love Under Quarantine was a breath of fresh air that I definitely needed! With everything going on right now Kylie & Audrey's story is one of a light in the darkness. Two neighbors stuck alone in quarantine finding love from a distance. Two strangers who would have never met under normal circumstances finding their other half from their individual balconies.

Evan & Sadie's story is sugar sweet and filled with heat! The chemistry between these two is OFF THE CHARTS & they don't even touch for a good portion of the book. But damn when these two get together they explode. I haven't read a book with such amazing chemistry between characters in awhile. You could feel it like a living thing. I was waiting in suspense for the moment when all that leashed passion could be set free & holy hotness batman I was NOT disappointed! Their love is so pure and the fact that Kylie & Audrey were able to write such an amazing connection between these two when they couldn't even touch was incredible. I was honestly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. I love as much passion as I can get so I was concerned that I wouldn't get that with this book BOY WAS I WRONG! I got the innocence of falling in love from afar mixed with a fiery passion that could not be extinguished. These two had me laughing then crying in the span of two freaking paragraphs! Seriously I was hooked from the first chapter & did not put it down until I was finished. 5***** all the way & will definitely recommend!

Madam Temptress by Meghan March Review

Madam Temptress by Meghan March

**From New York Times bestselling author Meghan March comes the stunning conclusion to the highly-anticipated Magnolia Duet.**

I didn’t choose this path. No one would.

I played the cards I was dealt.

This life made me. This city made me.

I won’t apologize for who I’ve become.

Moses wouldn't have me any other way.

He says he wants forever, and I’m starting to believe him.

But I can’t outrun my past, and my sins are catching up with me.

If it’s time to atone, I’ll gladly pay my penance.

We might be getting our second chance, but we have to make it out alive first.

Madam Temptress is the conclusion of the Magnolia Duet and should be read after Creole Kingpin.

Review: Let me start out by saying that I always go into a Meghan March book warily. This is because I truly have no idea where she is going to lead me. Yes I know I will eventually get that HEA but between start & end I know I'm in for a wild ride. This book was no exception. I knew that once she announced she was diving back into the New Orleans underground we should all be prepared. I mean look at the insane rides she sent us on with the Mount & Savage trilogies! Moses & Magnolia's duet was no different. I thoroughly enjoyed both books but I have to say Madam Temptress was my favorite of the two. You got to see a lot more of the characters as they will be in the future. You got a good feel of them as a couple. You finally got their backstory. I've said it a million times but second chance romance is one of my all time favorite tropes. The love just feels so much more intense. One character trying to win the other feels so much more live or die. The way Moses wins Magnolia back is pure brilliant blinding love. He's desperate and in her own way she is as well. It makes them coming together again so much more intense & those sexy time scenes! GIRL! Meghan March knows how to write a sex scene! But she also seriously knows how to grip you by the throat and make you scream at your kindle. As it is with all her books there were several things I didn't see coming. Several times where I was talking to myself saying "seriously? what?" or chanting "no no no no!" I laughed, I cried, I highlighted like a mad woman & I went through more drinks then I should have but they were needed! But all in all I definitely enjoyed this book & I would recommend this duet 100% 5***** for sure!

Creole Kingpin by Meghan March info, review & links

Creole Kingpin

by Meghan March

New York Times bestselling author Meghan March goes back to New Orleans and the world of Lachlan Mount with a dangerous and bold new anti-hero.

The thing about ghosts is they’re supposed to stay dead.

That’s exactly what I am, but I can’t stay away from Magnolia Marie Maison for one more day, let alone another year.

We’ve already got fifteen of those between us.

As it stands, she’ll want to kill me as soon as she lays eyes on me. And knowing her, she’s completely up to the task.

But I’m a man on a mission, and I’ve got everything riding on this.

So, here I come, Magnolia. This ghost is ready for whatever you got.

After all, there’s only one way I want this to end—’til death do us part.

Creole Kingpin is the first book in the Magnolia Duet. Magnolia’s story concludes in Madam Temptress releasing April 14, 2020.

Review:

So two things are a given when I go to read a Meghan March book. One: It's going to end in a cliffhanger & two: I'm going to love it. This book was no different. Like most of you I was dying for Magnolia's story! So when Meghan said she was finally writing it I was thrilled! But then I started worrying that no one could match her, that she would run rough shot over any man that tried. But then Legend introduced us to Moses. That man.. there is seriously so much I could say about that man. But I will stick to them as a couple. As many of you know second chance romance is one of my favorite tropes & Meghan's take on it did not disappoint! 15 years is a long time to be apart but she made it seem like it was no time at all. When true love is involved there really is no such thing as time. They have both been through so much while they've been apart but it only adds to their mystique. They're the same but new in a lot of ways. Now I wont give you a blow by blow of how this story unfolds. I feel that you guys need to find that out for yourselves. I will tell you that I loved the book & definitely recommend it! 4**** (would have been 5 but I wanted more in part one)

My Favorite Parts (other than Magnolia & Moses)

We're back in NOLA

One of my favorite Beneath heroines makes an appearance

Mount, Kiera, Aurora & V

The Club

Mounts secret passage ways

My Favorite Quotes:

"My blood pumps faster at the though of what's coming next. War, most likely. But not over the streets like I've waged before.This time, it's going to be a battle for a barricaded heart. Never before has anything been so fucking important. I wont rest until she's mine. Brace yourself, Magnolia. Another hurricane is coming."

"Moses sent me a pawn. What the fuck does it mean? I'm his pawn? He's my pawn? No... He's making the first move."

"This is me taking my shot, mama. And I don't fucking miss."

"Fight me all you want, but I see through the tough-broad exterior you're so used to wearing. I see you, Magnolia. That's who I came back for."

Just Joshin' Ya: Reflections of an uncensored kid by Joy Anna

Just Joshin' Ya

Reflections of an uncensored kid

By: Joy Anna

Okay guys so I know this is not my usual thing but I just had to share this book with you! I had a chance encounter with this author here in Vegas at a nail salon. I listened to her tell me about her story & about how this book came to be. We swapped life stories while sitting comfortably getting our nails done. It was totally fate stepping in. Her courage blew me away. While undergoing chemo after a double mastectomy she needed something to lift her spirits & that something turned out to be her son. Now being a mom of two amazing boys I understand how much they truly can brighten any day. She took this a step further & wrote in her journal about all the cute & funny things her son would say that would put a smile on her face or make her laugh. This book is that journal. It comes straight form the heart & you can tell how much love she has for her son. It's so real, so cute & definitely made me laugh. It is the perfect quick read to lift your spirits. It only took me about 45 minutes to read the whole book but it was 45 minutes well spent. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is going through a hard time, or just wants a short but cute read. You can get it here: Amazon

Some of my favorite Parts:
"Joshua was looking in my wallet and spied my drivers licence. He saw the F under sex and said, "Wow mom you flunked sex? Is it because you didn't take it, or did you forget to study?"

"Joshua and I walked, holding hands. I asked him if he would always hold my hand, even when I'm old? He said, "No! When you're old, I will carry you."

I will definitely be following this lovely woman now & will keep you posted on her new releases. Her next book is called What Is Charlie Doing. No release date as of yet.

Blurb: The second the test-the-sexy-scenes offer landed in my lap, I said yes.

After all, I've been damn curious about a few things I've read in romance novels. Do buttons truly go flying across the floor when you rip off a guy's shirt? Is staircase sex hella hot or does it leave you with a big old bruise mark on your back? And don’t even get me started on all that panty shredding, and whether it even works.

Time to find out as I embark on Project Sexy Scenes Research, at the request of my hotshot book editor bestie.

All I need is a willing scene partner. Enter Tristan, my best guy friend. The witty, tell-it-like-it-is, bearded hottie volunteers for the experiment.

He's also the guy who gave me the most devastating, toe-curling kiss of my life ten years ago. But nothing has happened since then. And nothing will come between my panties and our friendship now since we have a plan to keep it PG. But once the buttons start flying, all bets are off…

EXCERPT Strong muscles, carved abs, that sprinkling of chest hair that’s the perfect amount of manliness. My mouth waters. My stomach flips. And I reprimand the hell out of my brain, the indecent wench. Friends don’t picture friends in the buff. “Let’s try it one more time,” I say with a crisp nod and a cool tone. “We’ll do it by the book.” He clears his throat, his tone shifting. “Peyton, I have another idea.” I blink. “You do?” “I do.” He pauses, scrubbing a hand across his chin. “Do you trust me?” The question is rhetorical. “Of course I do.” He shakes his head, like that’s the wrong reply. “I know you trust me. But can you trust me right now? To take the lead?” His voice is gentle but somehow commanding at the same time. It’s soothing, and the question says he knows me, but he also needs me to let go. To give in to him. Can I? Will I stumble if I do? His eyes lock with mine, and the intensity in his gaze is reassuring, like the security he gave me at his restaurant the other night when he said, I’ve got you. I give the only answer I can. “I trust you.” “Good. Then let’s do it.” “If you say so, Fred.” His lips curve in a crooked grin. “I do say so, Gingersnap.” He hits play on “Wicked Game” on his phone and sets it on the table at the bottom of the stairs, and the smooth, sultry strains of Chris Isaak float through the air. The music pulses, low and sexy, like it’s playing in my body, beating inside me. The effect is heady. It sets the mood for the scene. A scene we’re simply acting. That’s all this is. Acting and reenacting. He arches a brow, glances at the stairs, then says in a rumbling, sexy voice, “Been thinking about you all day. Need to get you upstairs and get this off you.”
