BLURB

What if the life you had was a lie? That the virtuous person you tried to convince yourself you were, isn’t anything like the woman you are deep inside. What if the one person you thought could bring out the darkness inside you, fought hard to keep your light instead?  

But then again, what if he’s fooling himself? What if I’m not so innocent, and he’s the one who should be scared… 

Luring Light is a part of The Royal Bastards MC Author Collaboration and is book two in the Tampa, FL Series.


✯✯5 Void & Toxin Filled Stars!!!✯✯ 


I KNEW when I read
 Defining Darkness that Nycto’s VP Void and Eva’s younger sister Ivy were going to be good together and man was I right. 

We pick-up pretty much right where we left off. 


When Ivy was kidnapped in Cuba she didn’t know what would happen to her and her sister Eva. When Nycto took her sister and her by default she wasn’t sure what to expect. It ended up being the best thing that could’ve happened to them. 


Ivy lives in the cellar of The Royal Bastards MC surrounded by decaying bodies and weed. You’d think that would bother her but nope she’s absolutely comfortable being there. 


Ivy’s in-charge of growing the product with the help of Dash and she takes care of bricking those who’ve crossed the MC. 


Ivy loves being apart of The Royal Bastards. The one thing she wants more is Void but he continues keeping her at arms length. There’s one reason he does and it’s bc she’s never been with a man before and he can’t look past it. Ivy wants Void to look past that part and see she’s not all pure and light but she has a darkness in her. Ivy won’t give up on Void no matter how hard he tries. 


Void didn’t have an easy childhood. He was raised in a cult with his father at the tippy top spot and he raised Void to be emotionless. Void was able to see clearly enough and get out. 


Void’s the VP of the MC and takes his job seriously. Ever since they rescued Eva and Ivy from being sold to who knows Void finds himself attracted to Ivy. He can’t seem to stay away from her. 


Void doesn’t want to ruin or hurt Ivy. Void’s afraid he’ll do something to hurt Ivy so he keeps her at arms length as much as possible. But, whenever he sees her with Dash the prospect it makes him feel anger and jealous. 


If fighting with himself over his feelings for Ivy wasn’t enough. Nope! The club was waiting for whoever originally bought Ivy and Eva to pop up looking for them. 


Well they’ve shown up looking for Ivy, it’s 110% not what I expecting and I’m all for it. That’s def not the end of things.  The MC is being tracked and they’re coming for Void and Ivy and won’t take no for an answer. Void cares and loves Ivy too much to let anything to happen to her. 


Nycto sets up a safe house for Ivy and Void to hideout at. This might give them time to get closer then ever but it’s not as safe as they all thought. 


Holy cow!! I fell for Nycto quick but man there’s something about Void. Him and Ivy really are perfect together. They both have the right amount of light & dark in each other to fit together like two perfect puzzle pieces. 


Dash was in this story so much that it left me wanting his book bc he deserves his HEA. 


K. E. Osborn ended this story where I was jumping up & down bc I was LOVING where Ivy was in all her places/positions. She 100% deserves what she’s gotten.

✯Release Review✯Keeping You Away (Ex-Con Duet Series #1)(Tyler & Gemma #1) by Kennedy Fox






I never planned on returning to Alabama, but circumstances brought me here after years of being gone. Though Lawton Ridge is my hometown, I was hesitant to go back because of her —my sister’s best friend. The last time we were together, she was eighteen, and I was a broken soldier transitioning to civilian life.

Gemma wrote to me while I was overseas and we developed a bond I hadn’t anticipated. I crushed her heart the day I left, something I’ve never forgotten. But now that her dad is my new boss, life just got way more complicated.

Too sweet, too innocent, too good for a guy like me—I should walk away again.

After serving five years in prison for something I didn’t do, I trust no one, but Gemma gradually breaks down my walls and exposes the pain I’ve hidden underneath. For her own sake, I should keep my distance, but it’s nearly impossible when I hear her sweet humming while I work and she slowly draws me back in. It’s a battle I didn’t train for, and one I’ll lose if I don’t keep my restraint—especially since she’s engaged to another man.

Keeping You Away is a slow-burn, angsty romance wrapped up in an intense love story. It’s book 1 in the Tyler & Gemma duet & must be read first.


✯✯5 Tyler & Gemma Filled Stars!!!✯✯

I’ve loved EVERY book Kennedy Fox has released.  One of my FAVORITE characters in The Roommate Duet  Series was Tyler!! When I read what was all done with him I was crying. He didn’t deserve what was done to him and I was praying he’d get his own book and here we are. 


Things haven’t been easy for Tyler. His childhood wasn’t the best and he joined the military straight after high school. During his 4yrs in the military he spent writing back and forth with Gemma, his younger sister Everleigh’s best friend. 


Tyler fell in love with Gemma while writing letters back and forth. When he came home he fell harder. 


Tyler was Gemma’s first and they spent the summer together but he knew he had to get outta Alabama and begged for her to come but she wouldn’t but he left anyway. 


Tyler has been gone for twelve years and has never once been back and never planned on it. But, five years ago Tyler made a decision to help his best friend Liam with he got mixed up with the O’Leary mob. It ended up costing him the last five years in prison but he’d do it again to help Liam and save Maddie’s life. 


Tyler is back in Alabama living with his sister and starting his new job. Working for Gemma’s dad. Who also works for her dad. She’s also engaged and looks different and isn’t happy he’s back. Tyler’s starting to think he made the wrong decision coming back. 


Gemma has loved Tyler for her entire life. She was shocked he wrote her back the first time but loved writing him back and forth for those four years. They enjoyed their summer together and Gemma was devastated when he left. 


Gemma waited years for him to comeback. She went on dates here and there but nothing panned out. Then few years ago she gave up hope Tyler would ever return. 


Gemma felt terrible when he went to prison. When she heard what he was charged with she knew that wasn’t Tyler. He’d never mess with guns or drugs. 


Gemma started dating Robert and they got engaged after six months but have been engaged awhile. He’s been pushing her to move in with him and to set a date. He’s hoping she’ll move up her timeline and marry him within a few months from now. 


Gemma was questioning marrying Robert. The last thing she was expecting or needing was Tyler coming back and working with her everyday. 


Tyler’s not the same guy he was when he left. She sees a hardness and sadness in his eyes that weren’t there when he left. What is still there is their connection. It’s still sizzling hot. 


Gemma’s starting to see a different side to Robert as well. He’s becoming pushier on them moving in and getting married now rather then later. They hardly spend time together unless she’s having to dress to impress his work clients. He’s also become super jealous and possessive of her and he isn’t liking her working with Tyler. She can never tell him he’s anything more then Everleigh’s older brother. 



Gemma is getting more and more unsure about marrying Robert. It’s obvious she still has feelings for Tyler. Even without seeing him for twelve years he makes her feels things Robert never has. Not even in the beginning. But, it’s what Robert’s been hiding that has her over it. 


In my book Tyler never needs redemption. He’s the best guy ever!! What he needs is a HEA. In order to get that he needs to finish a big part of him. The one thing he can’t get past. 


I’m dying for the last part of this duet to release. I called exactly who Gemma was going to meet and I’m not surprised. I’m going to continue rooting for Tyler & Gemma. 


I’m also excited Katie and Everleigh are going to get their HEA but these three friends remind me of Maddie & her two sisters.

✯Release Review✯Redemption (Moonchild Book 3) by Kate L. Mary

Titles: Redemption (Moonchild, #3)
Author: Kate L Mary
Genre: Post-Apocalyptic Futuristic Steampunk
Publisher: Twisted Press
Editor: Lori Whitwam
Publication Date: May 16th, 2019
Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR
Blurb:
From an award-winning author and master of world building comes the thrilling third book in the Moonchild series, featuring a future fueled by greed and corruption, where airships rule the skies and coal mines have been turned into prisons…
Nearly a year after Asher Kimura swooped into Athens and saved Scarlett and her friends, the group has settled into a routine that almost feels like a real life. But when an altercation on the street turns deadly, they’re forced to head out west to lay low until things have settled down.
After a lifetime in the polluted world the Luddites have created, Scarlett is looking forward to seeing the sun in all its splendor for the very first time. Too bad the heat, dust, and utter lawlessness of the west leave a lot to be desired. But she’s determined to enjoy both her time with Asher and the break from the constant threat of living in Columbus.
It doesn’t take long for the group to realize that corruption knows no borders. Drugs, slavery, and forced prostitution are only the tip of the iceberg when Asher comes face to face with the demons from his past, leaving Scarlett to wonder if he’ll make it out in one piece.
With new characters and a fresh setting, the past meets the future in the exciting third book in the Moonchild series. Readers rave about the “captivating setting, riveting plot, and heart-pounding action” in the Moonchild series, calling it a “much needed breath of fresh air in the world of YA fantasy.”



✯✯5 Redeeming Stars!!!✯✯



This is the third book in Kate L. Mary’s Moonchild Series and it was just as action packed and nonstop action as the first two. We learn so much more about Asher in this book and meet even more people that we had previously. 

It’s been a year since Asher rescued Scarlett and her friends in Athens and they’ve been living in Columbus. Scarlett has given into her feeling for Asher, her and Paget have squashed their beef and are slowly becoming friends, Rory’s about to become a mom and Scarlett finally considers Columbus home. Which shocks her as much as it does everyone else. 

When Scarlett is propositioned by Layla she’s put in a tough position. Layla wants Scarlett to take her to the bar they all go too bc Dex won’t take her. She loves Dex and wants to prove she can live in his pirate life. Scarlett reluctantly agrees hoping she won’t get into too much trouble later. 

After Scarlett and Layla are attacked and they have to defend themselves, Layla’s life will never be the same. Her face was scanned and now she’s on the wanted posters. Scarlett feels terrible and Dex isn’t going easy on her. Asher comes up with a solution for the moment. 

Asher and Rock have a friend named Cullen out west whose always asking them to come visit. It’s perfect place for Layla to lay low for awhile. Jack agrees and on their way they go. 

When they get out West things aren’t lining up. If Scarlett thought the sun and the heat was her only problem she was wrong. Cullen def tricked Asher on coming.  

Cullen needs help and he knows the best guy to help him is Asher. A hotshot from Columbus has come and buying up all the businesses. There’s more and more people addicted to drugs and people going missing. There’s definitely something wrong. 

Asher and Scarlett go home looking to get backup. Keith introduces them to Creed, who agrees to help and bring twenty other people. Asher is all for it and Scarlett has her guard up until otherwise. 

Scarlett, Asher, Creed and Cullen all go investigate what is going on and things were worse than they originally thought. 

Asher’s past is not in the past anymore. When Asher, Scarlett and their friends shut down the auctions they thought things would calm down. But, Asher is now face to face with something he thought was done. The pits. Where boys are sold, then taught to fight and put into the pit to fight. If you die you loose and the boy still standing wins. 

Asher might’ve escaped but the pits have never left him. Asher’s on a mission to safe everybody being held against their will, destroy the pit and kill everybody involved. It’ll be his Retribution. 

Scarlett’s never seen this side of Asher before. He’s so conflicted but as long as he’s got Scarlett next to him he knows he’ll survive. There’s also Creed whose got a story as well that has him invested in taking out the pits for good. 

Scarlett also can’t forget about Blake. Asher’s father. The guy who sent her to the mines and has some sick fascination with Scarlett. 

I flew through this story. Like the first two books once I started I couldn’t put it down till I finished. Asher and Scarlett are still amazing together. They’re there for each other regardless of what’s going around them. They don’t run off if one has an attitude about something. When Scarlett finally tells Dex and Asher the entire story about her past with Blake. Asher was there, never leaving her side. 

Even with all the darkness surrounding them and their friends they put each other first. Creed had me worried for most of this book. I definitely wasn’t expecting what his backstory was going to be. 


I can’t wait for the next part of this story. After everything Scarlett, Asher and their friends went through they deserve to be able to breathe and not have to look over their shoulders 24/7. I’m hoping Blake gets what he deserves and that Scarlett and Asher getting the revenge they are overdue  for!!! 

Kate L. Mary has such an amazing imagination. I want in her head even for just a little while. She writes stories that I want to see on the big screen. Even though I couldn’t and wouldn’t want to see this be real, I’d hope I’d be as brave as the women she writes and find a guy as amazing as the ones she finds.  As usual I’m extremely excited for her next release.

✯Release Review✯Thrive(Guardian Protection Series #2)by Aly Martinez

Synopsis 

When I was nineteen years old, I was faced with a choice that changed my life.
Keep the safety of what I already knew or risk losing everything with the young, hotheaded soldier who stole my heart.

I chose the wrong man, and for seventeen years, I paid in tears, blood, and shattered dreams for that decision.

Now, there’s a man in my house, holding a gun to my head on the order of my ex-husband—given from his prison cell. 

That hotheaded soldier I was too afraid to choose? He’s now a six-foot-three wall of muscle who works at the country’s most premier bodyguard agency. I’ve always wanted him, but now, I’ve never needed him more.

It’s the call I’m terrified to make. 
I’m sure he still hates me… Even though I’ve never stopped loving him.


✯✯5 Thriving Stars!!!✯✯

Aly Martinez continues to prove over and over again why she’s on my auto buy list. Every book makes me forget about everything. I’ve been waiting for more of these guardians and the wait was totally totally worth it!

Jeremy Lark was totally completely madly in love with Mira York. They spent their nights in the back of his pickup wrapped in each other and talking. They told each other everything. All their hopes and dreams wants and desires. Everything was perfect. Except that Jeremy’s best friend Kurt was Mira boyfriend. He was a poor excuse for a boyfriend and friend. When Kurt found out about them, he set up Jeremy and got him kicked out of the Army. When he leaves he begs Mira to come with him and instead she chose Kurt. 

Jeremy ends up getting a job at the Guardian Protection Agency and it made him feel whole again. He did get married and had beautiful twin daughters. But, his heart belonged to Mira and he eventually got divorced. He has a civil divorce. Him and his ex do what’s best for their children. Jeremy hasn’t seen/heard from Mira or Kurt in seventeen years. Then, he gets a call and it’s her on the other line and she’s begging for help. It’s a matter of life or death. 

The minute Jeremy left in his truck Mira knew she made the wrong choice. But, she stayed anyway. Mira just went along with Kurt. But, when things turned back and he ended up in prison she knew it was her turn. She’s been on her own and divorced for three years and things are finally starting to look up.  Until Kurt’s ex-business partners show up at her apartment. They want what Kurt took from them and they’ll take her best friend and dog and leave the scary guy with a gun until they get it. Mira does the only thing she can think of. Call the one person she knows that’ll help her. The only person whose ever owned her heart. Jeremy Lark. 

Holy moly!!! This was an awesome book. Talk about a second chance romance. These two were so in love and so perfect for each other that they were half living without the other one. Together they’re fierce and strong. Jeremy is an alpha male all around. But, when he’s talking about or to his daughters omg he’ll melt your heart and wet your panties. Mira I wanted to hate for not choosing Jeremy first. But, we’ve all made dumb decisions and regretted it and then fixed it. She did that and more. I can’t wait for the next Guardian in this series.
