OUTFLANKING THE FLANKER CAPTURING THE CAPTAIN by Nicole Phoenix

REVIEW

These were my first reads by author Nicole Phoenix. I loved them but I needed a little time to get into the storyline. I love reading sports romance so I kept reading and then they just went WOW on me. I loved them and couldn't stop reading them. They both had great world building and wonderfull characters. I think I just had to get used to her writing style or just did not have a good day when I started this series. But she still gets a 4 star review from me. I can not wait to read other stories by Nicole Phoenix.

BLURB

OUTFLANKING THE FLANKER

Confident travel writer Chloe Maclane has no intention of falling for a fling. Not even in the city of love. Then professional rugby flanker and businessman Andrew Bourgatti literally knocks her off her feet.

Fiery chemistry forces Chloe and Andrew to change their game plan, but there’s another player who’s competing to win, no matter who gets hurt.

Is it possible to find love halfway around the world…twice? And what will they have to sacrifice to keep it? Follow their story from Paris, France, to Sydney, Australia, and find out!

CAPTURING THE CAPTAIN

Lacey King, a wealthy Aussie heiress, has everything she could need or want, except friends. Sick of being used for her money and power, she’s withdrawn from society to focus on charities when her American cousin calls in a favor. Now, thanks to one six-and-a-half-foot tall, god-like, beefcake of a man, Lacey’s relatively simple life is about to get complicated.

Cleat Walker has always been the golden boy of rugby. Tall, good looking, and captain his team, he pretty much gets what and who he wants. When everything goes south Down Under, he finds himself in the care of a sexy, entitled redhead who’s determined to do dangerous charity work alone. Not on Cleat’s watch.

Sparks and tempers heat up as Lacey and Cleat travel the Outback, where crocodiles aren’t the most deadly things in the bush.

Dirty Little Secret by LK Farlow

REVIEW

The story of Stella and Samson builds up slowly, they meet in Sweet little nothing and Dirty little secret is their story. I loved it from the beginning till the end. Author LK farlow knows how to build a story about two wonderfull characters. I know i say it a lot but this book was a real page turner, easy to read. Another five star read for me. 😀

BLURB

SAMSON
She’s always been off-limits. Forbidden. Way too young for the likes of me.

And yet, she still managed to carve out a space for herself in my heart.

But when push came to shove, I made the only choice I could, and I did it even knowing it would break

her heart.

I’m back now, and ready to make her mine. Only, she’s not the sweet girl I left behind. She’s wild,

reckless, and sexy-as-hell...a challenge I’m all too eager to meet.

STELLA
He was only ever meant to be a crush. After all, what girl isn’t into her older brother’s best friend?

But somehow, our innocent flirting quickly gave way to so much more. He swore he felt the same

way about me… he promised we’d tell my brother together the day I turned eighteen.

Except the night before my birthday, he did the unthinkable, and now I’m not sure I know how to

forgive him.

All I know is, I refuse to be anyone’s dirty little secret.

FAKING IT WITH #41 by Piper Rayne

Review:

Who doesn't love a hockey player single dad, I know I sure do. I loved this story from the beginning till the end again a real page turner as allways by authors Piper and Rayne. With it's wonderfull characters and great world building it is a five star read for me, again 😀.

Blurb:

Fake.

Being the heir to Jacobs Enterprises, I’ve been around fake people my entire life. I promised myself a long time ago that I wouldn’t change for anyone. Which is the only reason I’m a professional hockey player who lives on the beach and does as he pleases without answering to anyone—except my father.

And now, my daughter.

Being a single dad wasn’t in the plan but after a one-night stand who took off after the baby was born, this is my reality.

My dad’s been harping on me to quit hockey and join the company for years and now that I’m a father, he’s only intensified his efforts. Until he makes me a deal I can’t refuse.

Insert Lena Boyd, the Jacobs’ family PR rep. She’s beautiful and intelligent and not at all the woman for me—ask anyone.

My dad needs us to act happily engaged and sell the idea that we’re in love. If we’re successful I won’t have to join the family legacy—ever. Of course, I agree.

That’s when things get complicated. I thought I had her all figured out until I found out there was more underneath her judgmental sneers and eye rolls. It feels like everything is coming together for the future I really want—with Lena—until my past ruins everything.

The Austrian (Men of the World Series) by J.O Mantel

Review:

This was my first read by author J.O.Mantel and my first book in this series and I must say it did not dissapoint!! I loved the writing style and the story from beginning till the end. It was a short read, easy to finish in a day or so. This book makes me want to read the others stories and I definetely put them on my TBR list. This was my 4th MM book and I must say the genre is growing on me because of the well written MM Stories I have read so far. This wasn't my favorite but I loved it even so. A four star read for me, this one!!!

Blurb:

Twelve countries. Twelve men. Twelve million dollars!

The game of reality TV hasn’t been an easy road for former Hollywood A-Lister, Deacon Brady, but he’s playing to win.

This time in Salzburg, Austria ...

When a global pandemic forces the entire cast and crew into lockdown, things get complicated. For the first time in television history, Tainted Love goes live online, making the game interactive and oh so interesting.

Former Navel Officer, Fynn, is the next bachelor in a long line trying to capture Deacon’s heart. The catch— he’s never even heard of Deacon Brady, so Fynn doesn’t give a damn about the competition.

But what is Fynn really hiding?

Just when Deacon thought he’d seen and heard it all, the show’s producer, Dante, does what he does best, and drops yet another plot twist. It wouldn’t be good reality TV without a little drama ... or a lot!

Has Deacon Brady finally met his match?

The hills are alive - Salzburg, Austria.

Rory in a Kilt by Anna Durand

Rory in a Kilt by Anna Durand is now live!

Review

This is my first book by ANNA DURAND and also the first one in these series, I haven't read the books out of the girls point of view, so everything was new for me. But I love Scotts and kilts, so off course I loved this book. I like reading differint point of views so this was a little bit getting used to but I loved it after a few chapters. The story was very well written with lovely characters and great world building.

Definetely a four star read for me.

Rory MacTaggart—uptight lawyer by day, steamy seducer by night.

One night in New Orleans changed my life. But is it for better or worse? The instant I see Emery Granger, I need to possess her. A one-night stand should've been the end of it. Except I can't quite let her go yet.

A marriage of convenience is the best I can offer.

For reasons I can't fathom, Emery agrees to marry me for money, knowing it will last only one year. She is the opposite of every woman I've ever known, and the opposite of me—cheerful, free-spirited, and compassionate. Maybe that's why I need to have her, though I will never love her.

All I know for certain is that living by my rules might destroy us both.

Rory in a Kilt is the third and final book in The Ballachulish Trilogy, a brand-new series based on the first three books in the bestselling Hot Scots series, reborn and retold from the heroes' perspectives. Rory in a Kilt is coming soon in audio narrated by Shane East.

UNFORGETTABLE BY MARLEY VALENTINE

Review

I loved this book and I truly mean the word LOVED, what a book, Marley Valentine is the queen of gay romance, she knows how to bring it so it isn't tacky or cheap, but hot and just GOOOOD. It's like she is in their heads, she knows how they feel and what they think. With it's wonderfull characters and great world building this is another five star read for me.

Unforgettable is the only book I've read in the Vino and Veritas series, but I've put the other ones on my TBR list and if you're smart you will put all of them on there.

About the Book:

One night with Reeve Hale wasn’t enough. I knew it when I kissed him, I knew it when I slept with him, and I was certain of it when I walked out of his motel room the very next day.

So when the shy, gorgeous man is introduced as our newest employee at Vino and Veritas, I can’t help but conjure up all the ridiculous ways to convince him to repeat that unforgettable night. Like asking him to be my fake boyfriend at my sister’s upcoming wedding.

Only, I didn’t expect him to say yes.

Playing pretend shouldn’t feel this real. Especially when Reeve is planning on leaving Vermont after the summer.

We agreed to one night. We negotiated a fake relationship. But I’m the one who broke our terms. I wasn’t supposed to fall in love and he was never supposed to be so unforgettable.
