Unscrew Me by Hayley Faiman review!

Synopsis

Thirty-two and single, Presley wants to start over. She’s only going through the motions–just breathing, not living. It isn’t the life she’s always imagined.

She should be married, with a little house and a few children, maybe even a labrador to greet her after a long day of teaching third graders.

Treasurer for the Savage Beast MC, Silver lived life hard. At forty-five he’s seen and done it all–twice.

A single father in need of someone who could love him, and his boy. He’s given up on ever finding a woman who fit him–fit them.

Two people breathing. Two people wanting to be loved. One an outlaw. One an innocent. Two people who could not be more opposite, yet when their worlds collide, so does their chemistry.

My thoughts 💭

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I enjoyed this gritty, hot story! Silver and Presley had amazing chemistry. Presley is a good girl and Silver’s son teacher. Silver is the bad boy in a MC. Everyone warns Presley not to get involved with Silver but she can’t help the way he makes her feel. I like that Presley knew what she wanted and wasn’t willing to go without it. Silver was set in his ways but wanted Presley with him and his boy and happy and he’d do anything to keep her with him. If you enjoy an alpha male and good girl then I definitely recommend reading this! I can’t wait to read more from this author!

•ARC Review• Conor by A. Zavarelli!

Title: Conor (Boston Undercover)
Author: A. Zavarelli
Genre: Dark Romance
Release Date:


Ivy

When I stumbled into a mafia run club seeking a job, I was looking for protection. Little did I know I’d need protection from him.

Conor O’ Callahan was exactly the kind of danger I was trying to avoid. He was gorgeous as sin with an accent hotter than Hades, but that’s where the charm ended.

He was also cynical, cold, and downright cranky.

So, you could imagine my surprise when he gave me a proposition. Marry him or lose my life.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. I’ve learned to do what’s necessary to survive in this world, and that includes marrying a mobster. Regardless of what he might say, it’s only temporary.

It’s not like I’m going to sleep with him. Or fall for him.

Because that would be stupid, right?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Two people come together…one out of necessity and another trying to do what they feel is right and they end up falling in love. Conor and Ivy were so cute! I enjoyed their story and loved their chemistry! Ivy was running from her past and decided that staying with the Irish mafia was her best chance at surviving. Crow asks Conor to keep an eye on Ivy and Conor feels like he finally has a chance to prove himself. Conor tried to fight his feelings for Ivy but he wasn’t able to fight it for too long. I love this series and I definitely recommend it if you enjoy mafia romances!

Until he slowly lets her chip away at the icy pieces of his heart.

This was a cute Christmastime quick read. Kent is the resident scrooge until Judy comes knocking on his door. I thought it was a sweet read and definitely recommend it for some cute Christmas romance!

So when he discovers their marriage license has been deleted from the state’s records, he loses his mind. Someone in their lives is trying to sabotage his relationship with his one and only, and he’ll burn down the city to find out who it is. The only good thing about it is that now he can give his wife the wedding of her dreams.

Blakely loves her husband and everything about their lives. The one thing she can’t seem to make work is her relationship with her father and her stepmother. She tries her best but it’s not good enough, and when they find out that her marriage to Daniel is invalid they jump at the chance for her to finally be rid of him. If there’s one thing she won’t do, it’s give up the man who worships the ground she walks on. She’ll marry him all over again, but will they support her decision?

My thoughts 💭

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was an adorably cheesy book and I loved every thing about it! Daniel finds out that his marriage license is missing so it’s like he never married Blakely. Daniel’s obsession with his wife will not let this go on for long and he gives her a week to plan their wedding. This was a quick, steamy and cute read and I absolutely love this authors alpha men and their obsession with their women!!!

Mated To The Capo by Georgette St. Clair

synopsis

After an epically bad blind date, and far too much tequila, waitress/bike messanger Zoey Eastgate swore off men forever and got a tattoo that says ‘love bites’. Maybe she shouldn’t have tempted fate. Because now love, in the form of a very powerful Mafia wolf, has bitten her right on the ass, on a full moon. And according to the Blood Oath Pack, the “moon-bite” means she is now the mate of Dominic Lombardi.

Now her new “husband” is appearing everywhere – no matter how far she runs and no matter how well she hides. He’s crowding her world, refusing to take no for an answer, letting her know that on the next full moon, she’ll be his bride. If only her body didn’t respond so strongly to the Capo of the most corrupt mob pack on the west coast. If only he didn’t threaten her family and her livelihood one minute – and then serenade her with sexy Italian love songs which she can’t understand a single word of, the next.

If only new dangers weren’t rearing their ugly head and threatening not just Zoey, but all of Encantado, the supernatural sin city she calls home. When dark magic comes too close to home, will she stop running long enough for her wiseguy werewolf to claim his bride – or will she find herself fitted with a cement overcoat, sleeping with the fishes?

My thoughts 💭

⭐️⭐️⭐️

I thought the story was good, it had good characters and I liked the mafia werewolf angle. I wasn’t so fond of Zoey just avoiding Dominic for every little argument. Dominic was kind of closed off but he got better towards the end. They had good chemistry but the back and forth with Zoey avoiding him and wanting nothing to do with him got old for me fast.

10 Resolutions. 2 Friends. 1 Shot At Love


I’ll admit, having nine New Year’s resolutions makes me twitchy. After all, I’m Allison Gottlieb; overthinker, overachiever, hot mess extraordinaire. I’ve spent my entire life trying to be the best but for some reason, I’ve always fallen short. When a near meltdown (and maybe too much champagne) lands me in front of an old friend, things finally start looking up.If Mateo Ramirez, personal trainer, self-discipline junkie, and the Internet’s favorite smoothie-making underwear model, offers to help you, you say yes. We haven’t seen each other in years but if anyone can help me turn my life around, it’s him. His smokin’ hot body is cold, hard proof of that.Don’t judge me; I’m a lawyer. I like proof. A lot.Mateo promises to test my limits and help me face my fears. He’s even feeding my neurosis by giving me that wonderfully even-numbered tenth resolution. But what I don’t know is that, in the midst of helping me check each item off my agenda, he has some resolutions of his own. And they all lead to one thing: becoming more than friends.

Eleven romantic comedy authors have teamed up to bring you Happy New You, a sexy, funny, heartwarming story about friendship, perseverance, and finding love in this crazy thing we call life. Oh, and the magic of onesie pajamas.

ARC Review: Under Your Spell by Cynthia Rayne!

Synopsis

Love can be magical. And deadly.

Chloe

After my grand-mère was murdered, I returned to Bayou Noir to find the killer, because the police won’t do their freaking jobs. And I have just one suspect, Xavier Richelieu. But I forgot just how crazy the folks in my old hometown can be. A voodoo priestess, a supposed vampire, and a grumpy gator are on the loose. I don’t believe in crazy supernatural stuff, but I am worried about seeing my old crush again, Saint. And I should be. Somehow, he’s even more drop dead gorgeous than I remember.

Saint

I’m a member of the Demons MC, Cajun Chapter and I’ve got better things to do than follow Chloe around who seems bound and determined to get herself killed. But someone needs to watch her back and I don’t see anyone else lining up to do the job. Once upon a time, she was a chubby kid with a school girl crush. Now, she’s a mouthwatering woman, who wants nothing to do with me. One way or the other, I’m gonna help her avenge her grand-mère and sweet talk her into my bed. Maybe not in that order. (l

My thoughts 💭

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Chloe comes back home after her grandmothers death. She wants to find out who murdered her grandma but most people are stonewalling her and when she finds out something new she’s putting herself more into the killer’s sights. This book was a good one and kept me interested! Saint was no saint but Chloe made him want to try and it was cute. They had good chemistry. Overall I enjoyed the mystery and voodoo and can’t wait to read more!

Trouble In Hell(Hell Night Series) by Alex Grayson

Synopsis

Book one in Alex Grayson’s brand new romantic suspense series, Hell Night…. Welcome to Malus.

Trouble and his brothers escaped from Malus, Texas as kids. In the dead of night, they left behind a hell so hideous, it made national news.

Years later, they returned to make the place that was once their living nightmare, a safe place for those who have suffered just as they have.

When Remi comes to town, heavily pregnant and in desperate need of help, as the town’s only doctor, Trouble reluctantly offers his services. Little did he know the strong attraction he would feel for the woman. He fights it, tries to push it to the side, but it only grows stronger, nearly consuming him.

Love is not something Trouble can afford to feel. Not when he still has vengeance in his blood and the need to punish those of his past. Not when he knows Remi would never be able to see past the merciless actions he must carry out.

Remi has no time for love either, no matter how much her heart yearns for Trouble. Not when danger is knocking on her door, demanding something she’ll never be able to give.

Will the darkness in their pasts devour them, or will they find the beauty that’s just out of reach? In a town like Malus, anything is possible….

My thoughts 💭

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This seems like its going to be an interesting series! Trouble and Remi were so cute! Remi is pregnant and is traveling to see her brother but gets stranded in a small town called Malus in Texas where they aren’t too keen on strangers. She meets Trouble and there’s instant chemistry and I just loved it! I loved the twists and turns in this book and I definitely can’t wait for the next one! Beware there are abuse situations!
