Mogul by Katy Evans 
Publication Date: May 31, 2018 
Genre: Contemporary Romance


Mogul Amazon-2 (1)

A brand new contemporary romance from New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author Katy Evans is AVAILABLE NOW!

He's my most delicious secret.
The hot Suit I had a one-night stand with one evening.
I didn't know anything about him, not even his name.
Only that we shared a taxi, and he was staying at the hotel where I worked.
We met in room 301. Where he commanded not only my body but my soul.
The next day he was gone and I only had a memory of him.
I could still taste his kisses, feel his demanding touch.
I searched for him for months. Daydreaming about him. Wondering if I'd ever find him.
Until the day I find myself staring face to face with his jeweled black eyes again.
He says lets keep it casual, and my heart knows that falling for this workaholic in a three-thousand-dollar suit is off the table.
Because he has a secret. One that's a deal breaker for me.
My Suit has a name.
Ian Ford.
And this is our story.


Review
4.5 Stars

Ian motherfucking Ford ladies and gentlemen!!!! GAH! An alpha who knows what he wants and has a dirty mouth……………Uh, YES PLEASE! This book starts off hot and heavy. Ms. Evans was pulling her guns right out of the gate with this one.

Ian and Sara’s journey was definitely hot, sexy and steamy. There were some aspects to the story that I was kinda like “Eh”, which kept me from giving it a full out five stars. I liked the concept of the book and I remember Sara being a little out there and bold from Tycoon and I really liked her character. These two couldn’t have fit each other more perfectly. However, I thought the story went really fast. There is no build up, there is no emotionally drawn out drama. Yes, there are some issues they go through but nothing monumental or heartbreaking. I was just hoping for a little bit more in depth emotion.

Nonetheless, I loved the story because I mean….HELLO!!! ….Ian, yummy motherfucker, Ford! AH! That man had my panties in a twist. I was swoonin so hard for all his alphaness and the things that man said….phew!! HOTT DAMN!

This was a great read and it was very well written. Katy Evans always manages to grab your attention and suck you right in with these steamy guys and the variety of her female characters. I love that she changes them up and not all of them are all “woe is me”. Sara is badass. I love her boldness, determination and confidence. Katy Evans delivers a great read that will leave you with a smile on your face. I can’t wait to see who her next sexy alpha man is coming next that will knock Becka down on her knees!! ;)

New Review - Audiobook - GENTLEMAN NINE by Penelope Ward



Title: Gentleman Nine
Author: Penelope Ward
Narrated by: Sebastian York, Andi Arndt
Length: 7 hrs and 37 mins
Release date: 02-19-18
Publisher: Penelope Ward Books, Inc.

From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

Growing up, the three of us were friends. He was the nerd. I was the playboy. She was the beauty.

Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits.

He lied.

I went off to college, and he got the girl. Amber never knew how I felt. They were together for years - before he broke her heart.

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men. One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings. Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy - curiosity.

Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message. She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend - me. But she considered me off-limits - and she thought I was a man-whore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel. When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she was stunned to see me standing there - with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse. 

Review 

5 Stars

Narrators: 5 Stars
Story: 5 Stars
Listening Length: 7 hours, 37 mins

I absolutely enjoyed and loved everything about this story and the narrators. It's been awhile since I read a book from this author and she is even more talented than what I remembered. The storyline was amazing. The characters were phenomenal. Sebastian York and Andi Arndt did such a great job bringing this story to life and still  managing to capture and deliver the emotion perfectly.  

I loved the whole dynamic between Channing and Amber. They had great chemistry, fun banter, emotional moments and an amazing friendship and understanding of each other. The whole Rory situation really did take me by surprise because I was not expecting the reasoning behind his actions. The narrators did a wonderful job capturing and conveying the emotions from all three characters, 

I was so drawn to these characters. Amber, Rory and Channing's heartache was my heartache and it was a truly heart wrenching situation to go through. No matter what someone got hurt. Though as much as I wanted to just love them all and I did feel bad for what Rory went through but I just thought he was plain ol' stupid because he put himself in a position where he lost the love of a lifetime and he cheated his best friend early on the opportunity by being so shady. 

Penelope Ward delivers a sexy yet heart gripping story that left me feeling so completely satisfied with the outcome. I'm really glad I choose to initially read this through audiobook first because the narrators really nailed it on this one for me. A great read and I highly recommend the audio version.

Release Blitz + Giveaway - BEAUTY AND THE BEEFCAKE by Pippa Grant






Title: Beauty and the Beefcake
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Sexy Romantic Comedy
 Release Date: May 17, 2018



Blurb

There are two kinds of women in the world – those I can bang, and those I can’t.
My teammate’s sister?
She’s a can’t.
I moved in with her to protect her from a nasty ex, not to be the next guy in line.
She’s the brains.
I’m the brawn.
She’s the fruit.
I’m the sausage.
She talks too much.
I don’t talk at all, if I don’t have to.
Should be easy to resist her.
But every minute I spend with Felicity is another minute she gets under my skin. She makes me feel like something more than a dumb puckhead with a big Zamboni pony. And it’s getting harder to remember why I need to keep my hands to myself.

Beauty and the Beefcake is a vegan-friendly standalone romantic comedy featuring a hockey player whose vocabulary is the only thing smaller than a hockey puck, a book smart but aimless ventriloquist with too many voices in her head, a dilapidated old house that may or may not be haunted, and no cheating or cliffhangers.

Cover Reveal + Giveaway - THE RIGHT STUD by Ilsa Madden-Mills & Tia Louise






Title: The Right Stud
Authors: Ilsa Madden-Mills & Tia Louise
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Cover Design: Shanoff Formats
Photo: Wander Aguiar
Release Date: June 4, 2018



Blurb

Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills and USA Today bestselling author Tia Louise are back with an all-new romantic comedy filled with Southern sass and steamy scenes that will have you laughing out loud and fanning yourself. Pour the sweet tea and get ready…

“The best way to get over your sh**ty ex-fiancé is to get under a shiny new stud…”

As soon as Mr. Tall, Blond, and Handsome walks into that bar, I know he’s the hook-up I need to get over stupid Cheater Kyle.

A few stolen kisses in a dark hallway, and I’m pretty sure we’re headed for a home run—until he disappears without a trace.

Whatever. Men are all snakes in the grass, and I don’t need a new one anyway.

I resolve to forget about his perfect lips (and chest of steel) and instead focus on turning my Granny’s old beach house into a profitable B&B.

What I don’t expect is for him to show up the next day in my kitchen!

You see, my sexy mystery man is none other than Jax Roland, the drop-dead gorgeous home improvement star of The Right Stud, and he’s got an offer I can’t refuse.

With a suitcase in one hand and a hammer in the other, he wants to move in and renovate my old house while he films his new show.

But my roommate has secrets, and they threaten to rip our blossoming friendship—and possible love—apart.

When push comes to shove, is Jax really The Right Stud or is he just another nail in the coffin of love?







About the Authors

Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills and USA Today bestselling author Tia Louise are not a secret duo, but simply themselves.

Great friends, former English teachers, and southern gals in real life, they’ve teamed up to bring you laugh-out-loud naughty romances with strong leading ladies and sexy alpha males who know how to please their women—and who sometimes you just want to slap.

My heart was hurting and I felt all the pain, the grief, the loss, the regret, the love, the chemistry.....GAHHHH!!! EVERYTHING! This story was everything.

An amazing read from this author that I highly recommend. This is one that definitely requires tissues on hand.
