✯Cover Reveal✯Chasing Him(A Bishop Brothers Novel #3)by Kennedy Fox


Model: Zack Salaun
Cover Design by: RBA Designs
Photographer: Wander Aguiar Photography
 

John Bishop isn’t your typical single dad. Reserved, impatient, and utterly clueless. Running the family’s bed and breakfast has many perks. Working long hours, picking up after the guests, and hearing couples going at it all night long aren’t any of them. Hooking up with girls who come to the ranch for horseback riding lessons? Best perk of them all. That is until a baby shows up at his doorstep with a note claiming it’s his. Growing up on a ranch was anything but easy, but raising a newborn is proving to be the hardest task he’ll ever tackle. Leaving the bachelor life behind, his only priority is to hire a nanny who can teach him a thing or two about parenting—except he doesn’t anticipate her being gorgeous and quirky with an unhealthy football obsession. Mila Carmichael has many talents—making balloon animals, creating origami art, and remaining in the friend zone. Often seen as one of the guys, she’s struck out more times than a rookie baseball player. Seeking a new adventure, she flies to Texas to visit family and is offered a position she can’t refuse. Helping out a new dad should come easy to her, considering her past experience, but what she doesn’t anticipate is him being an attractive Southern temptation. But that’s only the beginning. While growing close to his family and falling madly in love with the baby girl who’s stealing their hearts, things are bound to get complicated. Everyone knows not to mix business with pleasure. That means no late movie nights, no stolen glances, and definitely no kissing behind closed doors. Too bad the universe has other plans—one that’ll threaten taking away the main thing that binds them together.  

𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗘𝗥

Chasing Him will go live on iBooks/Kobo/B&N on June 26th and then be taken off and go live exclusively on Amazon June 28th!

✯Review✯ Meyah(The Club Girl Diaries #9)by Addison Jane




Title: Meyah
Series: The Club Girl Diaries #9
Author: Addison Jane
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 26, 2018



Blurb

Meyah wasn’t the same girl she used to be.

She was becoming a woman. One who wasn’t afraid to speak up and stand her ground, refusing to go back to that girl who let the world walk all over her and break her down.

Her love for Hamlet, though. It gave her strength.

Meyah knew their relationship was never going to be easy.

When misunderstandings and bad decisions threw them off course, they would need to fight even harder to repair the cracks which had appeared. And even then, it was never going to be perfect.

But Meyah didn’t want perfect.

She wanted Ham.

He encouraged her to be herself, to fight for what she wanted. So when Meyah stumbled across the piece of herself which had always been missing, she couldn’t help but want to know more about this man she could finally call Dad.

Huntsman was dangerous, he was deadly, and there were people out there who would do anything to bring him to his knees. And Meyah was about to find herself right in their firing line.

Lines would be drawn.

Loyalties would be questioned.

And love was about to be tested like never before. 


✯✯5 Ham Filled Stars!!!✯✯

I am SO in love with Addison Jane’s The Club Girl Diaries Series since the beginning. If you didn’t read Ham then stop reading this and finish before you pick up Meyah. This isn’t a standalone!!

We pick up a few months after we ended. Meyah has run away to college. Ham AKA Shake is in jail, covering for his brother Romeo. Meyah has no idea Ham’s in jail and he’s insisting the brothers don’t tell her anything. 

Meyah is in college and she’s trying to stay on track. Meyah misses the girl and guys from the club. She desperately misses Ham. But, she refuses to go back. She also has the picture of her dad that’s burning a hole in the place she’s keeping it. Meyah has always wanted to know who her father was. Her Uncle Leo is the closest to a father she has but she still wants to know who her dad is. But, when she finds out from Romeo that Ham’s in jail that’s the first place she goes. 

Ham has been in jail and the main thing on his mind is keeping Meyah safe. The minute she shows up at the jail he knows it’s time to get outta there and get Meyah back. 

There’s so many things Ham wants. His biggest thing he’s wanted for years is his family back together. And, he wants Meyah to know the truth and for her to be standing next to him as his Old Lady. 

When his brother tells him he’s not part of the MC world and wants to go back home he’s not too shocked. Hurt he’s not staying but understands. Romeo’s a big bad guy the top dog in the world he lives in. Ham gets approval from Optimus to go back with a few guys and his brother to figure things out.  Imagine his surprise when him and Romeo find Meyah and her roommate/best friend Dakota in the bar. He  wouldn’t care if the owner wasn’t trafficking women and they set their eyes on the girls. 

Not too long after Ham gets Meyah back he’s held up at gun point again. This time by Huntsman. The scariest most dangerous guy that’s around. Ham realizes he wasn’t the only one they kept a secret. Turns out Huntsman is Meyah’s father and she finally found him. He also know his brother Romeo. He knows things are about to get crazy. 

Holy hell!! This book or more like Ham and Meyah love story was insanely wild, crazy and beautiful. 

Meyah went from being the girl with no friends who was bullied. To this strong, fierce women who never backed down to whoever or whatever was in her way. She also wasn’t afraid to admit when she was wrong. 

And, Ham. He really just wanted to be the perfect, loving caring brother. He also loved his brothers and the girls from his MC. But, what he wanted most was Meyah. He wanted to be by her side, he her Old Man. Ham would give everything up for any of them. Even go up against the scariest guy known to most, Huntsman. 


I’m glad Dakota and Ripley are next.  Hopefully, that means Addison’s creating The Exiled Eight MC. I’m not afraid to admit I’m a very needy woman. I want more from the Brothers by Blood. But, there’s so many of them. We have the hotties from Athens. Then, there’s Kit’s charter in Troy.  Now, the NEW charter in Phoenix. Plus, Huntsman club mixing into them. Yes, please yes Addison hook me up!!!

✯Review✯Already Home by Mayra Statham

Synopsis 

Jason Somers and Rocio Padilla have been friends forever. 

She used to have feelings for him but didn’t think he could see her as more than one of the guys.

Timing has never been right for him to make a move on the one woman he’s always wanted. 
Her fortieth birthday is right around the corner, and she’s ready to make big changes. Life throws them a lifeline just in time for a curveball neither saw coming. Will they let it slip through their fingers or realize in one another’s arms that they’re already home?

**A shorter version of Already Home was previously published as Butcher in the Meat Market Anthology**



✯✯4 Meaty Stars!!!✯✯

This is another quick read from Mayra Statham. Already Home was originally published in The Meat Market Anthology  and was a tad bit shorter. I feel theres more closure in this version then the first one. 

Rocia has loved Jason for years. But, he's put her in the friend zone along time ago. Rocia wishes he'd see her as more. She's getting ready to turn 40 and she's tired of the same old thing. Rocia knows there's another side to Jason's Meat Market and she's going to place an order off the "special menu" and then she's moving and starting new. But, she's gotta ask Jason first.

Jason is in love with Rocia. They've been friends forever. When Jason inherited The Meat Market there was so much to do to get it right. In order to make it right he needed money. Him and his friends opened another menu. An after hours menu. Jason was on it but as a companion and nothing more. When Rocia comes to him telling him she wants to place an order and then she's moving, everything in him flips. He can't loose her. Jason tells her he'll place her order and pay for it. What she doesn't know is it'll be him picking her up and he'll put his feelings out there. He's just hoping the feelings are mutual.

This is your friends-to-lovers book and fast paced. You'll read in a few hours. I just wish it was a full length. But, had no real complaints.

✯✯5 Dragonfly Filled Stars!!!✯✯

Al Jackson totally saved the best for last in this incredible series. I knew from the beginning with Rex’s story that I was going to be gutted when it came to Ollie’s story. But, I was wrong. Gutted wasn’t the case for what I was reading what Ollie and Nikki went thru. 

Nikki, Sydney and Ollie met when the girls started kindergarten and were best friends from the very first moment. Nikki and Sydney were best friends, sisters. Ollie was Sydney’s older brother and protector. He quickly became Nikki’s protector. 

These three grew up thick as thieves. They did everything together. Sydney was the light in everyone’s whose lives she was in. Nikki was the shy one. Ollie the overbearing one. It was Sydney urging them, telling them everything would be OK. It was always the three of them against the world. 

When Nikki’s 16 and Ollie 17 they’re feelings change for each other neither one is sure how to handle them. When they finally give into their feelings they decide to not tell their friends Rex, Kale and Sydney. They’re afraid of hurting Sydney’s feelings. But, before they get a chance to tell her Sydney goes missing and her or her body was ever found again. Fourteen years later and neither Ollie or Nikki have recovered from it. 

Oliver has never gotten over the loss of his sister. He should’ve protected her. But it was because of him that she’s missing. He couldn’t protect her, but he’ll do everything to protect Nikki.  He’s been in love with her his entire life and has never loved anybody but her. But, in his eyes he’s no good for her but nobody else is good enough for her. Ollie wants to stay away from Nikki but he can’t. When someone comes after her Ollie sees red and will do everything to keep Nikki safe. Even if it kills him in the process. 

The night Sydney went missing Nikki lost the 2 most important people in her life. Sydney was missing and Ollie pushed her away but he was still close enough to see everything. The only man Nikki’s ever wanted was Ollie but he’s closed himself off since the night Sydney went missing. He pushed her away when she was 16. Then, he crushed her again a year ago. As much as she loves Ollie and wants to spend forever with him, Nikki can’t let him continue to use her to make himself feel better then push her away.  But, when Ollie shows up at the wrong time she’s forced to move in with him. 

Both Nikki and Ollie aren’t sure how they’re supposed to live in his apartment together. How’re they suppose to be so close together while trying to stay far away from each other. Plus, the anniversary of Sydney disappearance is right around the corner. Both aren’t sure if they’ll survive the other one. 

Holy hell!! This book was so emotional it’s unreal. The way Al Jackson wrote this story. Unbelievable!!! She wrote Ollie and Nikki’s life together from their first initial meeting, to first kiss and she wrote the important parts of their lives at the perfect times in the book. She did this with Baz and Austin Stone’s storyline in the Bleeding Stars series and she hit another grand slam. 


There was nothing I disliked about this book or series. I love the guys Rex, Kale and Ollie and the girls Rynna, Hope, Lilith and Nikki. Even Broderick had me lol again in this book. But, we see more of the guys and Nikki’s friendship from teenage years to now.  All their lives were changed that night and finally getting answers. Al Jackson continues proving over and over again why she’s one of my favorite authors!!! I’m looking forward to her next book.
