✯Release Review✯The Temptation of Dirty Secrets (The Boys of Clermont Bay #6) by Holly Renee

We became a secret that neither of us could keep.
A devastating secret that would destroy everything.

The Temptation of Dirty Secrets, the highly-anticipated conclusion to The Seduction of Pretty Lies Duet from bestselling author Holly Renee is available now!

Captivating. Vulnerable. Agonizing. Seductive. Frankie Clermont was supposed to be like a sister to me for as long as I’d known her.

But no one knew the depths of our lies.

I had been in love with her before… before everything changed what we could be.

Undeniably connected and effortlessly infatuated, the two of us had remained each other’s weaknesses through everything.

I couldn’t afford to allow her to be my weakness anymore. I was in love with someone else. I was engaged.

But it didn’t matter how much time had passed, the moment I saw her again, I knew I would never escape her.

I never should have touched her again. Whispering her name in the dark was a mistake.

She was still everything I wanted and nothing I should have had.

We became a secret that neither of us could keep.
A devastating secret that would destroy everything.

✯✯5 Tear Jerking Filled Stars!!!✯✯

Wow talk about saving the best for last!! I been waiting for Frankie and Olly to get their HEA since book one of this series and when I finished The Seduction of Pretty Lies I knew it wasn’t going to be easy for them to get it. 

We pick up right where we left off. Olly realizing Frankie has left him in the middle of the night. Frankie’s hurt that Olly chose Beck and their friendship over her. 

An entire year passes and they’ve had minimal contact. Olly is trying to fake it till he makes and Frankie’s doing that same thing. Even though they’ve technically moved on but in reality they’re still in the same place they were in and that’s still wanting to be with the other one. But, Bc Frankie doesn’t trust Olly to not hurt her again they spend one night together and go their separate ways. 

Over the next year these two continue to pretend like they are doing great and that they’re in happy relationships. These two continue checking in with each other with phone calls and every time gets harder and harder Bc they miss each other and both wish things were different but they’re both too stubborn to give into what they both want. 

I was dying while reading this book Bc I didn’t know if Olly and Frankie would ever get their HEA. I’m not going to lie there was a ton of times I was crying Bc these two were crazy in love but their pride made them not give into what they both truly wanted and by doing that they not only hurt themselves and each other but they dragged two other people in and it went on for way to long. 

I was hoping and praying that Beck would open up his eye’s and see that Bc of his actions and demand’s that two people he loved were hurting and that he’d do the right thing. He definitely made me smile but ugh he sure did take his sweet time. 

I’m in love with this couple, this group of friend’s and series and I’m so sad that it’s ending. I’m excited to see what Holly Renee releases next.

Excerpt from The Seduction of Pretty Lies, Book One

Prologue
Olly

Two Years Earlier

God, she was so pretty.
I clenched my hand at my side to avoid reaching out and touching her.
She was also too young for me and she was my best friend’s little sister, but neither of those things seemed to matter when I was looking at her.
I was always looking at her, but she was looking at him.
Lucas grinned at her from across the table, and a soft blush bloomed across her cheeks. He was one of my best friends too, but I wanted to kill him when he looked at her like that. My stomach hardened as I watched them. I knew I didn’t have the right. She wasn’t mine, but for some reason, she felt like it.
She had felt like it for far longer than I liked to admit.
“What are you up to today, Frankie?”
She pulled her attention away from Lucas long enough to look over at me. “Not a whole lot. I thought I might go for a swim before the party tonight. You’re going, right?”
“Yeah.” I nodded. “I’ll be there.”
“Good.” She smiled at me as she leaned against her hand. “What about you, Lucas? Are you going to be there?”
I clenched my teeth as I waited for his response. He always treated Frankie as if she wasn’t important. He treated her like she wasn’t the most important person in the room even though she looked at him like he was the most crucial thing in her life.
“Of course.” He rubbed his hands together as he talked, but he was barely looking at her. “I need to get fucked up or laid tonight.”
Frankie’s shoulder slumped the smallest bit, and she looked away before either of us could see her face.
A face I knew she was attempting to school to hide her hurt.
“Real classy, Lucas.” I rolled my eyes because even though I had been friends with Lucas for what felt like forever, I still didn’t see what Frankie saw in him. I was beginning to wonder why I was friends with him at all. “Come on, Frankie. Let’s go hit the beach before the party.”

“Okay.” She nodded and stood from her seat. “Let me grab my suit.”
As soon as she left the kitchen, Lucas leaned back in his chair and chuckled.
“What the fuck is wrong with you?” I glared at him.
“What’s wrong with you?” He laughed harder. “You look like a lovesick puppy over Beck’s little sister when you can get any pussy you want in the entire school. Don’t let a piece of ass make you look so pathetic.”
“Don’t fucking talk about her like that.” My pulse was racing as I clenched my fists at my sides. “You have no idea…”
“What are you assholes talking about?” Beck interrupted us as he walked into the kitchen and grabbed an apple off the island.
“Trying to get Olly laid.” Lucas smirked, and my fingers tingled with the urge to knock it off his face.
“It’s about damn time.” Beck wrapped an arm over my shoulder and laughed. “You’ve been a little tense.”
“Fuck you both.” I shrugged Beck off me just as Frankie came back around the corner. She was wearing a simple black bikini, but I couldn’t look away.
“Hey, you ready?” She held a towel against her stomach, and I watched as her eyes flashed over to Lucas before looking back at me.
“Yeah. Let’s go.” I opened the back door and waited for her to walk through. This was Frankie’s house, but I felt like I knew it as well as my own. I practically lived here most days. Frankie walked in front of me, and I stared at the soft slope of her back as she pushed through the back gate and out onto the sand.

✯Release Review w/Giveaway✯Concede (The Diamond Empire, #1) by Kathy Coopmans

Title: Concede
Series: The Diamond Empire
Author: Kathy Coopmans
Genre: Romantic Suspense, Organized Crime, Enemies to Lovers

A new series of standalone full-length novels from USA Today Bestselling Author Kathy Coopmans.

For years, I pretended to be something I’m not. Drowning the beast living inside of me in copious amounts of alcohol and women. Not that I complained.

And then Victoria Hughes walks back into my life, and took me by surprise.

The woman stunning me clear out of my mind the minute my mouth touched hers.

After tragedy strikes and knocks her off her feet, I expected her to come to me, yet she didn’t. She pretended we’re nothing. But I see her. I’ve watched her, and she’s fighting grief while battling an all-consuming need for vengeance.

If anyone understands that, it’s me.

Deep down, she knows the only way to ease the pain is to give in to me and let justice bleed from her enemy’s veins.
And she will. I’m the type of man to make sure of it.

But there’s a problem. We have no idea who the enemy is. All we know is they want to destroy The Diamond Empire.

✯✯5 Enforcer Filled Stars!!!✯✯

Kathy you’ve made me wait forever to get my hand’s on Seth Mitchell’s story and after finishing Concede I’m here telling you the wait was 100000% worth it!!!

Concede might be the first book in the The Diamond Empire but it’s not the first time you’re seeing a lot of the character’s. Victoria’s parent’s are Deirdre and Aiden Hughes from Kathy’s Syndicate Series. We meet Seth Mitchell from the very beginning of The Unbound Trilogy and again in Abrupt and those follow his brothers. 

I knew from reading Seth’s brother’s stories that I needed more from Seth but OMG I was so unprepared for him. By the end of the prologue after reading him and his niece Lexi’s goodbye that I was in serious trouble Bc I was a blubbering mess!!

Seth Mitchell is moving to New York City for two reason’s. He took a new position at the Diamond Empire run by Roan Diamond. Seth has become the Enforcer for the Empire. He’s taken over for Aiden Hughes. His real main reason for for going to New York is Victoria Hughes. 

Seth has known and loved Victoria his entire life. She think’s he’s the Devil and he’s here to show her how right they are for each other. 

It took them 20yrs to kiss and then some and Seth wants to smack himself for waiting that long LOL. Seth wants her to let him in. He also has a job to do for the Empire and right now they’re connected. 

There’s been an attack on the Empire and Victoria’s lost some of the closest people to her and they’ve got no leads on whose behind it. 

Seth’s job is to protect Victoria. He also want’s her to trust him to let him in. Seth want’s her to see they’re perfect together and to trust him 100%, to let him in on everything she’s feeling, thinking, scared of and wants her to desperately to accept him for every part of him. 

The more time Seth spend’s with Victoria the more he wants to give her. Seth want’s to take away Victoria’s pain.  He love’s her laugh and will do anything to make her laugh. Seth’s also close to finding out who’s behind the attack’s on the Empire but it doesn’t come fast enough. 

Victoria Hughes is the daughter of Aiden Hughes, enforcer of the Diamond Empire. While Victoria loves her parent’s, sister and two brother’s as well as her extended family. She’s not a fan of the mafia portion of it. Victoria wants no part of that side of the family business but she’s still very much a part of her family. 

When half of Victoria’s family is taken out in one night she’s devastated. She can’t believe she’ll never see them again. When Seth Mitchell show’s up she wants to scream. 

Victoria’s hated him her entire life. Or so she says to him but her insides keep telling her something else. She’s too busy dealing with her grief (so she thinks) then to deal with her real feeling’s for Seth. 

He lets her know he’s taken the job as Enforcer and part of his job is keeping her safe and he wants her.  Victoria doesn’t want him but her body is betraying her.  

Victoria can’t stay away from Seth no matter how hard she tries. He knows how to use her body to make it come undone. Victoria’s tried to play hardball but she can’t. 

Victoria’s seen how her aunt wanted nothing of the business then fell in love and became the Queen of the Empire when she gave into her feelings for Roan. 

Victoria’s realizing tomorrow’s not promised. There’s never as much time left as you’d think and hope for. She’s wasted a lifetime staying away from Seth Mitchell and she doesn’t wanna stay away from him anymore. 

Victoria’s learning to live with loving Seth and him doing his job for the Empire. They’ve promised each other he’d do his best to come home to her every night. Then there’s another attack and they’re both fighting to come home at the end of the day. 

Holy smokes!!!! Kathy Coopmans absolutely KILLED this story. 

Victoria was so strong.  She loved her family and Seth so much. Victoria learned how to be with Seth regardless of his job with the Empire. Victoria also learned to love the new person she was becoming. Victoria wanted vengeance. She wanted the people behind the attack taken care of. She also wanted whoever set up her brother Diesel taken care of and him outta jail. 

Seth Seth Seth. He owned my heart!! His relationship with his niece Lexi was beautiful.  Let’s face it Lexi OWNS all three of the Mitchell brother’s LOL but I dunno her and Seth brought me to tears MULTIPLE times. I also came to tears with Seth and Gabe, the man who took him and his brother’s in and became his father. The way Seth loved Victoria was beautiful!! You’d almost forget he was a killer with the way he was with her. With him going to rehab for his drinking but really quick I realized he didn’t need alcohol anymore Bc he had Victoria. 

After finishing this I’m DYING for Diesel’s story!!! I’m gunna be losing sleep till I get my greedy hands on it.

“Where the hell do you think you’re going? It’s snowing out there.” It’s a blizzard. Colder than a witch’s tit. Blowing snow and below zero temps. The only thing I’ll never get used to in this city.

Victoria’s body tenses, which I don’t like at all, still, she’s going to answer my question. She has no choice. I won’t let her walk out the door looking like that. Fuck what Theo thinks or says when he gets here.

“No shit, Sherlock, this is New York. We get snow, and sometimes several feet all in a matter of hours. Maybe you should move south of the border. As far away from me as you can get.”

“Cute. Not going anywhere, Victoria. Neither are you.” I grin. Nothing turns me on more than her sassy mouth. Except maybe when the time comes where she says my name. “Now, answer my question.”

Slamming her hands against the counter, she whirls on me, enough to stumble me back a step. Her lips set in a thin line. Pure fire behind her stare, and goddamn if it doesn’t make me want to plant her on the counter, kiss her in a way that reminds her who she belongs to.

Instead, because I’m sure she’d bite my tongue off, I lean forward, grab her hips again, our mouths only inches apart. Her lids flutter, lips parting, and making me want to devour her.

“I don’t have to answer you, now back the fuck off.” She gets a free pass on swearing this one time. She might be slowly conceding to the dark side, but her soul and spirit are too flawless for trash talk.

Unless I’m balls deep inside her.

✯Release Review✯Bet The Farm by Staci Hart

Bet the Farm is LIVE and available from your favorite online book retailer! This heartfelt, flirty story of opposites attract from Staci Hart is just what you need. Happy reading! 💕

Amazon | AppleBooks | Kobo | B&N | Goodreads

Olivia Brent has one summer to save the dairy farm she just inherited.

But there’s one problem, and it’s not her lactose intolerance.

Jake Milovic.

The brooding farmhand has inherited exactly fifty percent of Brent Farm, and he’s so convinced the city girl can’t work the land, he bets she can’t save it in a summer. 

Determined to prove him wrong, Olivia accepts what might be the dumbest wager of her life.

His strategy to win seems simple: follow her around, shirtlessly distracting her between bouts of relentless taunting. And it’s effective—if his dark eyes and rare smiles aren’t enough to sidetrack her, the sweaty, rolling topography of the manbeast’s body would do the trick.

What they don’t know: they’ll have to weather more than each other. 

Mysterious circumstances throw the farm into disarray, and with the dairy farm in danger, Olivia and Jake have to work together. But when they do, there’s more to fear than either of them imagined.

Because now their hearts are on the line, and the farm won’t be the only casualty if they fail.

✯✯5 Goat Filled Stars!!!✯✯

I’m so so happy Staci Hart wrote this book. It was such a cute story!! I started it last night and next thing I realized it was 5am and I’d read 62%. 

Olivia aka Livi lost her parent’s when she was young and she moved in with her grandpa on their dairy farm. 

Livi stayed with her grandpa until she moved to New York to go to college for marketing. After she graduated she stayed in NY and worked for her aunt. Livi always planned to go back to the farm. She thought she had time but 10yrs have gone by in a flash. 

Livi is back at the farm with her pink suitcase’s and pink rain boots. But, she’s not back for a good time. Her grandfather has passed away so Livi quit her job and had moved back home. 

Livi knows the farm hasn’t been doing the best the lady few year’s but she didn’t realize just how bad they were doing.  Livi has plan’s to work on updating the farm’s social media, branding and trying to get the farm outta debt. 

But, she had no plan’s on her grandfather leaving half the farm to Jake. She was shocked and ready to work with him but Jake was dead against her staying and working on the farm and leaving wasn’t on her list of thing’s. Jake wants her to either go back to New York and  let him run the farm his way or son over her 50% and Livi is on a mission to prove him dead wrong. 

When Jake’s mom passed away he went cross country from farm to farm working. When he knocked on Frank Brent’s door his life changed. Jake didn’t just find a job but he found a home and a family. 

Jake asked Livi not to leave and go to New York but she did and she didn’t return and he didn’t forget it. 

Jake’s worked for Frank for the last decade. Frank took a huge risk on Jake when anybody else would’ve let whatever happened to Jake happened. Frank put himself and the farm in debt for Jake and he’ll do whatever it takes to pay him back. 

Jake’s devastated that Frank has passed away. He’s absolutely shocked that Frank left him 50% of the farm. 

Jake knows the farm is in debt. If the farm being in debt was the only issue he might be OK. But, Livi has come in with all these crazy idea’s for the farm. Jake’s not having one bit of it. Then there’s the feud that over 125yrs old. The Brent family and the Payton family have been at each other’s throats. And now work Frank gone the Payton’s are circling the farm like sharks. 

Jake and Livi agree to disagree to work together for a certain amount of time. They’ve put bets on what they can do and winner take’s all. 

The farm isn’t the only thing at risk. These two are at each other’s throat’s 24/7 nonstop. But, their chemistry is also high and sizzling. Unfortunately they’re their own worst enemies but when they give into it boom they’re explosive!!! 

Just when they think they’ve figured out how to work together both at the farm and personally thing’s start happening around the farm. Thing’s that could ruin them and their business. 

Jake believes it’s the Payton’s and doesn’t care what anyone says. Livi doesn’t wanna believe Chase Payton would stoop down to his dad & grandfather’s level. They can’t seem to get on the same level and if they can’t figure it out it’s the ends of them and the farm. 

I’m such a HUGE Staci Hart fan since the very first book I read of her and Bet The Farm is no different. I’m looking forward to her next release. 

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. When she's not writing, she's reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.

✯Release Review✯Hope's River (Hope River #1) by Margaret McHeyzer

Title: Hope's River

Series: Hope River #1

Author: Margaret McHeyzer

Genre: Small Town Second Chance Romance

Release Date: February 8, 2021

BLURB

Working with my hands has always been my passion, so now I flip houses for a living. I love what I do.

I was happy where my life was heading.

Although I knew he wasn’t the one, I was even content with my long-term relationship, until suddenly I wasn’t.

I needed a change, so I got in my truck and asked the universe to help a sister out. It was then that I stumbled upon a cute small town called Hope River. Ironic really...

Not only did the name of the town hold significance to my past, but it led me to find something I thought was once lost.

*A stand alone, second chance, small town romance.

✯✯5 Hope & River Filled Stars!!!✯✯ 

I’m in love with everything Margaret McHeyzer release’s and Hope’s River is no different.  This is a completely new genre for her but I swear you’d think she’s been writing small-town romance, second chance, romantic comedy for years. But, nope this is her first and I’m glad to know we have at least two more coming. 

Hope Sawyer is a 25yr old and she flips house’s for a living. She’s worked hard to get where she is today. Hope’s been in a relationship for a few year’s. Hope has settled and just going from day to day. Until one night her boyfriend comes home and pick’s a fight with her that escalates. Hope breaks up with him. 

Hope pack’s a bag and let’s him know she’s leaving and he has a week to get his stuff outta her house. Hope drive’s around aimlessly until she see’s a small town called Hope River.  She doesn’t get very far into town when she see’s a rundown down for sale. 

The house has been vacant for years, Falling down and it’s calling her. Hope buy’s it and call’s her brother Charlie who work’s with her to come and flip it with her. 

The town is small and everybody knows everyone and everyone knows everyone’s business. By lunchtime Hope has been tops by everyone in town they’re excited to see what she does to the house. There was one town resident that knocked the wind outta Hope the minute she saw him. 

River Lockwood is a blast from the past. Hope met River when they were in high school. But, not too long after they met River moved due to his dad’s job. Over the next few year’s River and Hope would run into each other. The last time they saw each other it didn’t end well and Hope isn’t happy to see River. 

Neither Hope or River were expecting to see the other one. Hope is definitely not happy but River is beyond happy to see her. River became an electrician and owns his own business and came to offer his services to the new owner of the house. He let’s Hope know he want’s to help as well as start over. Even though Hope tells him absolutely not, River promise’s to wait as long as it take’s for Hope to give them another shot. 

This was such a greatstory!! I loved how the town folks were involved in the renovations. They were adamant Hope not tear it down. Even though her brother was vocal about blowing it up LOL. But, for Hope the house spoke to her. She wanted to keep it and rebuild it. Hope wanted to make it bigger and better them before while keeping it original. 

Hope kept telling everyone once the house was done she was selling it and moving onto the next one and she wasn’t staying. Elle, the realtor, owner of the diner, who became friend’s with Hope that she said she wasn’t staying in Hope River but she’s never left. 

River and Hope go from hot to cold. River keep’s trying to get Hope to see how good they could be together. Hope keep’s fighting with herself and her feeling’s. If she can’t get her head and heart on the same page she could loose River for the last time. 

I’m so excited for Elle and Jake’s story next. Then Charlie and Tabitha after that. One of my favorite character’s in this story was Gran to the townspeople and May to Hope and Charlie. She had me Lmao one minute and had me crying the next. I’m excited Margaret is giving us more of Hope River to look forward to.

EXCERPT

“I’m sick of you pushing me away. Get out of the way of our happiness, Hope. We need each other.” His fingers find their way inside of me, and I suck in a breath as he plays and brings me to the brink of having an orgasm. Right here in a fucking vegan restaurant.

Wait, is it really hot in here? Has someone turned the heat on?

His mouth takes mine, muffling my sighs and moans as I concentrate on increasing this ecstatic explosion quickly rising.

“Oh shit.” I grab on to him, and try to grind against his hand. Shit, shit, shit. “I’m nearly there.” I keep moving my hips, wanting him to bring me undone. Suddenly, he pulls away and slowly brings his fingers up to his mouth. “What are you doing?” I nearly leap on him to finish what he started.

He sucks on his fingers, and winks. “You want me to finish?” I’m nodding furiously. “Then come to my house tonight.” He opens the door, and walks out.

What the actual fuckity fuck, fuck, just happened?

STRONG, BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS CHARACTERS. 

**Write something worth reading**

I'm Margaret and I'm a self-published author.

Recently I was fortunate in obtaining New York Times best-selling status on my YA/NA book - Ugly, and my YA book - Mistrust.

My last six books have been YA and I'm completely in love with the genre. I love being able to communicate with people through my words and stories.

My writing genres all differ, but the one thing I keep consistent is my heroines. All my female lead characters are strong, gutsy and not the 'perfect' woman. While my books all have romantic elements in them, they aren't just about the romance. They're about finding strength, acceptance and making life long connections.

I hope you enjoy my stories as much as I have while writing them.

✯Release Review✯ Perfectly Thin by Margaret McHeyzer

Title: Perfectly Thin

Author: Margaret McHeyzer

Genre: YA/NA Contemporary Romance

Release Date: October 19, 2020

BLURB

When I’m thinner, no one will make fun of me 

When I’m thinner, I’ll be accepted

When I’m thinner, I’ll be beautiful

When I’m thinner, I’ll be happy

When I’m thinner, I’ll be loved, and adored

When I’m thinner, I’ll like myself

I can’t wait until I’m perfectly thin.

✯✯5 Unperfect Stars!!!✯✯ 

Margaret is seriously one of my favorite authors!! She writes books that hit you deep down in your gut. Her books aren’t all rainbows and butterflies. Nope her butterflies usually have one wing that’s bent and even though they’re still beautiful, they’re flying in a circle or just all over the place.  Almost every book that she’s released I have seen pieces of myself in every main female character and Perfectly Thin was no different.   

Jane’s in her senior year of high school and her eighteenth birthday is rapidly approaching. Jane is very close with her parents, grandparents, her 2 best friends and is as close as possible with her 2 older sisters as much as possible. 

Jane isn’t one of the popular girls in school but as long as she has her two best friends she’s good. She’s never been super skinny like her sisters or her besties. Unfortunately for Jane the mean girls and guys target Jane every single chance they get.

Jane has been exercising and watching what she’s been eating and it’s showing. She’s lost some weight and looks great. When one of the popular guys asks her out on a date she is shocked but agrees. 

Jane was really looking forward to going and having a good time. What should’ve been a great night turned into the worst night of Jane’s life. When Jane was left after being called a something and not a someone it gutted Jane.

Jane went on a mission of her own. She was going to prove to the meanies in school, her sister and everybody else who stares at her when she walks by.  Jane googles exercises and different foods and their calorie count. Then writes down an exercise and food plan and is strict on herself. 

Jane is hard on herself. Harder than anybody else.  Jane has the voices on the inside of her head talking, yelling and reminding her of things all day. Loosing weight starts to become an addiction to Jane and not a good addiction. No matter what anybody says to Jane she’s not listening and it might just kill her if she doesn’t start to listen.

My whole life I’ve struggled with my weight. My weight 100% gone up and down my entire life and I don’t ever see that not being an issue. I myself have voices that talk to me whenever I look in the mirror or buying new clothes.  I’ve   also been bullied in school a bunch of times as well.  

I totally understood Jane’s feelings and the urge to loose the weight. But, the 

more the story went the more I worried for Jane and for her health. 

Margaret definitely did her research on anorexia and everything that a person goes thru while struggling through the daily and while trying to overcome it. Perfectly Thin is in my top favorite reads this year. I’m looking forward to Margaret McHeyzer’s next release.
