My Review:


{I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.}
Another fantastic installment of this series by Giselle Dejesus.

So this book begins where the first book left off from, and holy crap this book just had me captivated from front to back. I had the hardest time trying to multitask doing the things I needed to do because I refused to put this book down. I read it in one sitting. It starts off from the accident through his recovery.Through her pregnancy, his job, Then they had a few minor and big misunderstandings, people tried to get in-between these love birds. Will their love be strong enough to stick with each other when someone's trying to tear them apart? You'll have to purchase and read this amazing series to find out.

The first installment I had giving a 3.5-4/5 start rating although it was an awesome story line and plot it was just because it had a lot of grammar and punctuation mistakes, and the whole insta-love thing didn't sit well with me. But in this series I understood their relationship more, we saw the love and relationship grow. Also, The editing was really good in this novella, had very minimum punctuation and grammar mistakes. Evan was always the dominant alpha male he always treated Natalia the way she was worth, which was everything. Gisell did a great job with each and every character. We got into the head of Someone else that was kind of PHYS-CO in this story and it made me stop and think, THANK GOD IM NOT CRAZY! lol.

HOLY BE-JESUS! I loved Evan in the first book, but this book made me all out fall head over heels in love all over again. I definitely recommend this book if you want a sweet short action filled story to read. The ending isn't a cliffhanger like the first one, but I really am hoping to get more of EVAN AND NATALIA! That ending was so beautiful those surprises totally blew me away.

Great job again Gisell, I'm so proud of you! Thank you for letting me join this journey with you & I can't wait for future novella/novels from you! keep up that creative mind, can't wait to see what else you come up with

My Review:
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST is the first book I have read from Gisell DeJesus and certainly not my last! This book is written in both characters POV. As this is her first novel/novella I must say that it was job well done it was totally sexy and had my head spinning within the first chapter. Although the story needed a little bit of editing on punctuation it wasn't that bad especially it being her first book out. The description had me intrigued but the first couple of pages just had me addicted to the story. A whole lot of twist and turns to keep you on your toes and guessing!
Natalia and Evan meet at a club, They had that instant connection as soon as they caught each others eyes. Although the relationship progressed faster then I usually liked, I honestly had mixed emotions but it didn't bother me as much as it usually does in other books. It matched the story as well as Evans personality- (ALPHA MALE) yes ladies ALPHA MALE! 
Evan was Possessive,demanding and Controlling with a cocky attitude but not in a abusive or unhealthy way, but boy did it turn me on! Evan goes after what he wants and takes care of whats his. He had rough edges but did that sexy hunk have a big soft side for Natalia ,which totally won me over. Who doesn't love sexy hunk taking care of you once in awhile? 
"Personal? Right now I have your pussy in front of my face, with my fingers all inside it and you can't answer my question?" -Evan 
See what I mean't by cocky attitude but a frickin TURN-ON?!
Natalia was a sweet and strong heroine who was usually a good girl because of her motivation to finish school and pursue her career. She was a bit a pushover, but knew when to put her foot down when needed and boy did she put her foot down (high five Natalia!).
As the story progresses Evan soon finds out some information on Natalia that makes him debate rather or not to continue on with his relationship with her, because well its a Conflict Of Interest on his part. But Evan just can't let Natalia go, She awoken something in him that he hasn't felt in years and no one made Evan feel the way Natalia does.
Evan keeps his life very private, so somethings/someone keeps popping up in their relationship that he keeps from Natalia and she know it. As soon as she finds out she needs to decide rather or not to forgive Evan for keeping something so big of a secret from her and move on and continue being with him or just to let him go and continue on with her life without him. 
I was addicted through out the entire book, I could not put this story down every time I thought of something ,it took a turn. It was really exhilarating. The ending came too fast for me, yes it was a Cliffhanger and damn did it just crush me that it ended. But it left me wanting and needing more of Evan and Natalia, Haha so needless to say I'm excited and nervous to find out what happens next with those two! I recommend this book to people who doesn't mind fast paced couples and cocky sexy men ;)

My Review:
This is the third book of the until series and is not a cliff hanger could be read as a stand alone.

Cash- sexy tattooed cocky guy. Without giving too much away unless you read the book before this one, Cash had gotten One of the "TOWN GIRLS" pregnant and had to leave his "ONE" to make things right with the other girl. A year later he realizes he couldn't make it work no matter how hard he tried so he divorces her and gets full custody of his son. A few years later he runs into his "ONE" again and quilckly finds out shes been hiding something from him.

Lilly- Clumsy, cute, shy & innocent enough girl. Wasn't experienced in the "Boyfriend" department but fell in love with cash in short amout of time since they met, when she finally gives up her Virginity to Cash the day after Cash runs off with nothing more then I love you but i cant see you anymore. 3 weeks later she learns that her life will never be the same.

They both bump into each other 4 years later, while lilly tries to fight her attraction to Cash she knows shes still in love with him even though she wants to hate him. Cash knows she's still the one so he's made it his goal to fight for her love back. Later on throughout the story it was a mixture of feelings, Cash was such a good father and lilly was a perfect mother. But cash had alot of "baby mama drama" it got really crazy!!! 

Although I love ASHER the most from UNTIL NOVEMBER I still found Cash melting my heart. I loved him! I so recommend this story!!

My Review:
Until Trevor is the second book in the Until series and is NOT a cliffhanger.

Trevor was living the bachelor life, living it up having a different girl in his bed every night. Until he met Liz. The little blonde shy girl that is friends with his brothers girlfriend. He then becomes close to her and starts to fall in love with her when he gets scared. Then one night something happened between them that pushed him over the edge and made him push her away as a friend. From then on he ignored her but only talked to her when he saw another guy trying to talk to her or was by her then he would go scare them off.

Liz- A small quiet blonde headed girl that owns this beautiful unique store in town. Meets november one day when she was in the store and instantly connected with as friends. Then meeting her for coffee one day, she met some of the MAYSON brothers. from then on her and Trevor was attached at the hip every chance they got, they became best friends until one night. Where everything they had crumbled.

Liz is done waiting and playing games with trevor, but trevor makes it his life mission to get her back to where they were and then some. I loved those two together, it was funny passionate it was just too cute. I loved how trevor was with her. Protective and possessive. I love alpha males that turn into cave men. Those are my favorite!! But can trevors ways prove enough to Liz that this time is different from the first, will she give them a chance at love? read the book and you'll find out!! ENJOY!

My Review:
This is the first book in the Until series, and Is not a cliffhanger. 
Until November is my first read from Aurora Rose Reynolds and let me tell you I'm obsessed! I read this book in a day and a half, If I didn't have a 2 year old running aroud I would've been able to have finished it in a few hours! I'm already on the 3rd book (UNTIL LILY) and I just started this series 2 days ago hehe. I could'nt even put the books down to write this review.
Asher Mayson- Sexy, successful, the oldest of his HOT brothers! The guys that all girls in town drop their panties for. And the guy that gets what he wants when he wants it just by taking it. I must say in the beginning that I thought asher was a totally DBAG! seriously, but after that ugh I fell in love over and over with him. I just loved him to the soul. He protected November and took amazing care of her.
November- 25 from the big city 'NEW YORK'. She had been living with the most unstable, selfish and a bitch of a mother. November had gotten attacked one night just walking home from subway after that she moved to tennessee to go live with her father that she only had met a few years back. when she gets there not only is she welcomed by her amazing father but her huge family. She finally felt like she belonged somewhere, somewhere that people actually cared. November settles in quickly, then goes to work her father as a book keeper for his strip club. The day she goes in for the first time she meets the workers and all that good stuff, on the way out of the club is where she stumbled on Mr. Pantydropper. 
Novemeber had a attitude that I just loved for a heroine, her and ashers INSTA love connection didn't bother me like it usually does. Majority of the reason is because he was protecting her from a stalker. Thats when asher goes all CAVEMAN and alpha male on november. 
What really got me to love Asher is at the end, I don't want to give away any thing big. But OMG did my heart melt :)
READ THIS BOOK YOU WON'T REGRET IT

Desolation

Author: Bella Jewel

Series: Jokers' Wrath MC #4

Released: April 25, 2015

Rating: 4.5-5 ★★★★

Synopsis:
Pippa
The girl you all know as damaged. Quiet. Broken.
She doesn’t fit in. Nothing in her world feels right. She’s trapped in a spiral of darkness that seem to be consuming her day by day, until she sees nothing but an empty, black hole.
Her world is a dark place she can’t escape.
She has people around her who matter. Who love her. But it’s not enough. Not enough to break her out of the bitter despair she lives in.
UNTIL TYKE.
He knows pain. He knows darkness. He’s sweet. He’s kind. But most of all…
He understands her.
Combining their demons doesn’t seem like the best plan. Everyone is against them. He deserves better. She deserves better. They’ll never work. They’re too broken. Too damaged. It’s a destructive combination that will only end in heartbreak.
He’s a biker. She’s a broken angel.
But in their desolation, they find peace.
WITH EACH OTHER.


My Review:
Desolation by bella jewel is the final installment to the JOKERS' WRATH MC series, One of my favorite MC series out I've read so far. Bella's writing is creative and captivating. She had me at every word she wrote. To say the least, I was borderline obsessed with this serious, now that it came to an end I'm so sad :( But the way she ended this novel was just AMAZING! I couldn't have pictured anything different then the way she wrote this last book. My head was on a roller coaster kept me guessing "WHATS NEXT".

Pappi Is the broken girl they had rescued from the book before ANGUISH Also the sister of SANTANA (The prez ol' lady). She was living a nightmare for majority of her life, and this story was told from the PRESENT & THE PAST. As we get to learn what she went through while explaining why the way she is now. She's grown attached to TYKE and wants so much more then just being 'friends' with him but knows it's only a one way feeling.

Tyke, has some physical limitations. He was the brother that was in the wheelchair throughout the other books in the series. He's broken, She's broken. He's just as attached to her as he is, but believes she deserves so much better then him. He thinks she deserves the 'white picket fence, married with A whole bunch of kids' kind of relationship.

Likes-THE WHOLE DAMN STORY!!!
Dislikes- The only thing I wanted more of was rainer, but I'm just hoping she writes a spin off of him just like she is with a few others from this series.

I rate this book 5 DAMN STARS!!! If you need a MC book, this series should be on your TBR list!
 

Welcome To Sugartown

Author: Carmen Jenner

Series: Sugartown Series #1

Released: November 3rd, 2013

Rating: 4.5 ★★★★

Synopsis:
Ana Belle never wanted anything more than to hang up her apron, jump on her Vespa and ride off into the sunset, leaving Sugartown in the dust.
Elijah Cade never wanted anything more than a hot meal, a side of hot arse and a soft place to lay his head at night where he could forget about his past.
But you know what they say about wanting: you always want what you can’t have.
Nineteen year-old virgin Ana is about to discover that’s not quite true because a six foot three, hotter than hell, tattooed, Aussie sex god just rode into town. He’s had a taste of her pie and he wants more– no really, Ana bakes pies for a living, get your mind out of the gutter.
She’d be willing to hand over everything tied up in a big red bow, there’s just one problem; Elijah has secrets dirtier than last week’s underwear. Secrets that won't just break Ana’s heart, but put her life at risk, too. When those secrets come to light, their relationship is pushed to breaking point.
Add to that a psychotic nympho best friend, an overbearing father, a cuter than humanly possible kid brother, a wanton womanizing cousin, the ex from hell, and more pies than you could poke a ... err ... stick ... at.
And you thought small towns were boring.
Welcome to Sugartown.
Content Warning: Intended for a mature 18+ audience. Contains explicit sex, oodles of profanity and a crap-tonne of AWKWARD

My Review:
This book wasn't what I expected it to be, I thought it was gonna be one of those sweet light romantic reads. Boy did she fool me, this was pact with so much emotion, love, friendship, heartache, action, redemption and forgiveness ect.ect. 

Ana belle, nice sweet girl who born and raised in a small town called sugar town who took over and run's her mothers pie diner. Her dad owns a bike and motor shop just across the street from the diner. Ana dreams of leaving that small gossip town she lives in it doesn't help any that she has quite a reputation, caused by someone in her past. She swore off boys & relationships and tries to keep to herself. And then she meets Elijah, who just turns her world upside down and brings out the best in her.

Elijah- Sexy, tattooed ,bad a$$ biker with a dark and dangerous past, who goes from town to town who chases " that white line" as he says it. He never stays in a place too long, Until he meet sweet Ana. He becomes instantly infatuated with her, and tries anything and everything to make her his. He's never wanted more then a girl then just sex, but with Ana it's different. He wants to change his ways for her, be a better man. But he keeps his past life a big secret, And there are things that he hides from Ana that knows that would break their relationship he built so hard on.

I absolutely loved this story, It was amazing- I felt all the emotion from Carmen's writing. I was just like a deer caught in headlight in this book. I couldn't put it down and function in reality. This story had so many twist and turns I was quite shocked more then a few times. Some parts just completely broke my heart like I was Ana. I wanted to punch a few people in the throat on more then one occasion lol. But over all I fell in love with Elijah, and my heart went out to him. They both went through a lot of problems throughout the book. I loved how it wasn't one of those, "INSTANT LOVE CONNECTION" I mean they were infactuated with each other from the start but it wasn't one of those where they spilled their hearts out and saying any I LOVE YOUS in the first week they met. They actually took the time together while we explore their relationship. Immediately after finishing this book, I went onto amazon to order the whole series in paperback because I just knew that this series is going to be one of my favorites. 

Likes-Pretty much everything.
Elijah's determination
Holly, (ANA'S BESTFRIEND)
Carmen's writing and creative twist.


Dislikes- I honestly felt might have been A little too hard on Elijah at some moments
One part of the book involves "cheating" which wasn't cheating since the couple wasn't together at the time. But it still counts to me. lol

Enjoy your stay

Author: Carmen Jenner

Series: Sugartown Series #2

Released: March 3rd, 2014

Rating: 4 ★★★★

Synopsis:
The last thing Holly Harris expected was to wind up nineteen, knocked-up, and all alone. When Coop left to pursue his dreams of becoming a rock god, he left a tiny piece of him behind.

Holly wishes he hadn’t.
Jackson wishes he hadn’t.


Jackson Rowe tried filling the void his family left by drinking, screwing around, and leaving a string of heartbroken women in his wake. Moving back to Sugartown should have been easy, but he hadn’t counted on the fact his sometimes attraction to Holly would still be alive and kicking—and he sure as hell hadn’t counted on her being pregnant with another man’s baby.

They drive one another crazy, and yet they can’t stay away.
When old flames resurface, and even older wounds are torn open, can two people so similar make it work? Or will their stubbornness only drive them further apart?

Content Warning. Intended for a mature 18+ audience. Contains angst, a crap-tonne of profanity, short-tempered Australian wildlife, and some very pregnant sex

My Review
I rated this book a 4-4.5 horny pregnant girl stars!
This book is the second installment of the (Sugar-town series). It's written in both charterers POV & is not a cliffhanger. Could be read as a standalone, but i recommend you reading the first one to under stand a little more.


This installment was written where "Welcome to Sugartown " left off. Enjoy your stay is focusing on HOLLY (Ana's bestfriend) and Jackson Rowe (Ana's cousin). In the last book we learn about Holly and Jacksons occasionally Hook up when he would come to town to visit Ana and her family. Only when Jackson's vacation came to an end He left sugartown, only he didn't want to leave her behind and she didn't want him to leave neither of them knew that.


Jackson Rowe: Sexy Single Playboy who picks up different woman every night. His mouth is all that I need to set my panties on fire. But he's still reeling in from the death of his mother, he set up to move back to sugartown. He tries to feed his void by drinking his life away and sex. Plus try to seduce his old flame "Holly" with all his HOT SEX innuendos.

Holly: Hot-tempered, No filter mouth, feisty, crazy red head. Very sarcastic and doesn't give a shit about you opinion. She does and says what she wants with no remorse. In the last book, Holly finally hooked up with Coop. Who was a new bartender at the club they would frequent sometimes. He was from the big city and was in a bad. Things between them got pretty serious before he got home sick and decided to go back home and to his band. He gave holly an ultimatum. Go with him or break up and stay. You can guess she stayed in sugar town to be with her best friend. After finding out Holly was pregnant she suffers the backlash of her family she found herself knocked up, single and pregnant.

When Jackson moves back into town he rooms with Holly and Ana. Thats where their Sexually innuendos start, and old feelings start to arise and sexual tensions are so thick. Jackson sticks by holly's side being her friend throughout the pregnancy, but when something comes up. Both of their worlds are turned upside down. Past relationships arise and their relationship is put through the test. Although they didn't have a real RELATIONSHIP. So now It's up in the air. Who does she choose in the end? Her first love and father of her child, or the guy she "basically lost her virginity too & wants to kill but fuck every time she sees him"?

I think Carmen did an awesome job on this installment, It was also funny, some parts of the book literally made me LOL. I think the only reason I gave this book a 4-4.5 stars was basically because inside of this novel was a love triangle. Pretty much on both side of the relationship. Although they were both single and not together. That isn't my kind of thing, but it fit perfectly to the book I can't think of it going any other way. In the end I loved it! I recommend this series to any one who loves romance comedy's, hot guys with sexual innuendos a girl who has no filter for her mouth or actions.

Pucked

Author: Helena Hunting

Series: Stand Alone

Released: May 3rd, 2015

Rating: 4 ★★★★

Synopsis- 
With a famous NHL player for a step-brother, Violet Hall is well acquainted with the playboy reputation many hockey stars come with. She’s smart enough to steer clear of those hot, well-built boys with unparalleled stamina. That is until she meets the legendary team captain—Alex Waters.

Violet isn’t interested in his pretty, beat-up face, or his rock-hard six-pack abs. But when Alex inadvertently obliterates Violet’s previous misapprehension regarding the inferior intellect of hockey players, he becomes more than just a hot body with a face to match.

In what can only be considered a complete lapse in judgment, Violet finds out just how good Alex is with the hockey stick in his pants. But what starts out as a one-night stand, quickly turns into something more. Post-night of orgasmic magic, Alex starts to call, and text, and e-mail and send extravagant—and quirky—gifts, making him difficult to ignore, and even more difficult not to like.

The problem is, the media portrays Alex as a total player, and Violet doesn’t want to be part of the game.

My Review-
I rated this book A HOLY 4.5 PUCKED stars*****! This was the first book I have read from Helena Hunting and most definitely not the last either. This novel was Both ALEX & VIOLET's POV & was NOT a cliffhanger. This story was a Funny, romantic & sexy novel.

Violet, Sexy accountant with a VERY whitty mouth. Which I have to say had me seriously LOLing throughout the whole book! She also has been burned by a hockey player before, along with her step-brother being a in the NHL she made up her mind. She's no longer going to be involving herself with anymore Hockey players. So one night when she goes out to support her "step brother" at his first home game she goes out (more like forced to go) to their after party. She didn't expect to meet her brothers new team captain and be attracted to him.Alex Waters, The sexy as hell, play boy, Captain of his NHL team 'THE HAWKS'. He's known for his play boy ways & for his famous "HAT TRICK" that got all the girls going crazy. He's Canadian, and came to the states when he got picked up by the NHL. One night with violet has his world turned upside down and he starts to think of his reputation and how to keep violet. From there on he does everything he can to try and win her over.From the very first line in this book I was on it like a crack addict. I seriously could NOT PUT THIS BOOK DOWN! I may admit though, that it did bother me that violet was pretty immature for her age especially for her to a professional accountant for such high end people. But hey, no ones perfect that's probably why I loved her so much because she had flaws just like the rest of us and that didn't bother her to succeed in her life. Throughout the story violet just seemed to have trust issues at some points because of her ex boyfriend , so alex tries to change her veiws and show her that not all hockey players are D-bags. They end up having miscommunication, and everything starts t crumble, actually there was just a few things that was about miscommunication that could have been avoided. overall I really enjoyed this story I personally loved it even though I've seen a few bad reviews, I do see where they were coming from but I dk like I said I personally loved it.
