*My Review*

My heart series was the first book I read of Aleya Michelle and I'm not sorry I did.

This series is a book where opposites attract then they meet drama and end up happily ever after how could you not after what these two went through. 

Basically boy (Kade) meets girl (Roxy) and boy can these two be any different like I said opposites attract. They go out on normal dates nothing fancy (: for once the guy isn't into getting physical straight off the bat. Then everything falls to pieces, certain events lead to the downfall in there relationship. For those who haven't read this please do it's the perfect simple romance with a little chaotic drama.

The day I decided to read this I was actually in North Sydney where this book is centred so I felt like I was in the heart of where all the magic happened. It's the best feeling in the world when you know exactly where the author is talking about.

EXCERPTS

 

Excerpt 1

 

‘Fuck you make me hot Roxy.

I’ve never been so turned on in my entire existence.

Your curvaceous body, lips made for kissing and skin so soft and untouched.

I am so greedy when it comes to you, so get used to sex morning, noon and night from here to eternity princess.’

Kade – Breaking My Heart

Excerpt 2

 

Okay well there’s a glimpse of the girl that makes my heart skip a beat, her true emotions, her honesty.

Her walls are definitely up.

Do I want to have to break down those walls?

Will it be mission impossible?

Will I get hurt again? Fuck

I can’t resist this woman!

As irritating, confusing and frustrating as she is, I just can’t resist her!

 

 

AUTHOR BIO

 

Born and raised in Sydney, Australia. I am in my thirties and happily married with three gorgeous boys.

 

My first love has always been reading, so the writing side is very natural to me. Favourite books include anything by Abbi Glines, but Fallen too Far is a favourite, Pulse & Collide by Gail McHugh and The Driven trilogy by K Bromberg.

 

Hobbies of mine are playing netball; shopping and I love listening to music. I add it into my writing frequently.

 

I am totally enjoying this rollercoaster of being an Indie author and hoping others enjoy my writing as much as I love writing it.

ARC Honest Review- Southern Pleasure by Kaylee Ryan 19/12/2015

Title: Southern Pleasure

Author: Kaylee Ryan

Blurb: 
They tell you that a parent’s love is all consuming. I never put much thought into it. Not until the minute I heard her take her first breath. That little girl is my world. I’d do anything to protect her. 

My ex signed over her rights and her family vowed that my daughter didn’t exist. Now that she’s gone, they want my little girl. They’re trying to say I can’t give her what she needs.

I’ve known Evan all my life. Our families farms run parallel with each other. He and my brother Aaron have been best friends for as long as I can remember.
What they’re trying to do is wrong. He needs my help, someone he can trust and I’m more than happy to do it. I volunteered without hesitation.

I should have thought about what it would be like to have our lives intertwined. I should have thought about what would happen when our time together ended and how my heart would feel when I had to walk away. 

*MY REVIEW*

Received an arc:

This is the story of the good southern man that just happens to be charming as well. Evan Chamberlin`s life changed in one moment, when he found out he was going to be a father doing everything in hes power to make sure this baby has a happy life, feel loved and protected.  Everyone says what would you do if you had to be a single parent, but no one tells you the hardships you have to face. With no family around to support him he enlists the help of hes best friend`s sister McKinley, who has just returned home from college to start her own business. 

When McKinley has to make a choice she doesn't hesitate, how will this story end and will there be a second chance at love?

Southern Pleasure is the perfect combination of a good southern charming novella mixed with drama. whats a love story without love. Kaylee Ryan has described the hardships of a single parent and the struggles it takes in raising a child as well as the parts to a parent that`s terrifying.

A beautiful tale of love, friendship, family, and life in itself.

Series: Rockstar #6

Author: Anne Mercier

Release Date: December 15, 2015

 BLURB

It's time for the Kingston triplets to be born.

I've heard stories of how women have their water break or go into labor in their home. That's not how it happened with Lucy and our babies. As long as Lucy and the babies are okay, I'll be okay--even if we are surrounded by the Russo Famiglia.

 But nothing has been normal for us from the day we met. So why would it start now?

*MY REVIEW*

Received as an ARC;

This is the continued story of Lucy and Jesse, i for one have been waiting for the next part which is the Kingston babies being born. Its not a story without the Russo Family and a little drama to go along with it. the names Anne has chosen for these little ones couldn't of been picked any better for each of them. 

This novel managed to make me cry, laugh, and sing along with Zander`s part, not to mention our extra edition within this purchase which we get introduced to Zander`s lady in the picture however it doesn't come without its drama and secrets. Looking forward to there story coming full circle and Zander getting his happily ever after.

Anne Mericer you couldn't have written the next part to this series any better with adding new characters to the mix.

ARC Honest Review- Touch by BJ Harvey

Title: Touch (Sovereign # 1)

Author: BJ Harvey

Release Date: December 16, 2015

Blurb:
It started on a plane, a first class connection that spilled over into a lustful date on a rooftop.

She's very open, he's intriguingly mysterious with wicked intentions, all of which she wants directed her way. 

Can she trust that feeling of heady lust that leaves her aching for his touch, or is there more to it when it comes to Barrett "Bullseye" Matthews.

Touch is book one of a new three part romance serial from USA Today Bestselling Author B.J. Harvey.

*MY REVIEW*

Received an ARC (:

When Alyssa Jacobs boarded her plane in first class due to an impromptu trip to Vegas for her mother engagement never in her wildest trips did she think she would meet Barrett Mathews and have an overcome power of lust towards him. What will happen when the two come together?


When I started reading it I thought for sure it was going to be another what happens stays in Vegas novel but nope you changed my expectations with just that last page turner. 
I don't think I can wait till the 13th January 2016 for the next instalment.

Bj Harvey you sure know how to make a bathroom exit memorable.

ARC Honest Review - Liar, Liar by Kasey Millstead 11/12/2015

RELEASE BLITZ

Title: Liar, Liar

Author: Kasey Millstead

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: December 11, 2015

Blurb:

 . . . Liar, Liar

 Makenna Banks is a 28-year-old, independent, professional woman who spends her days seeking the truth for her clients.  She is tenacious and fuelled by events in her past, determined to bring hidden secrets into the light.

. . . Pants On Fire

 Thrust into a life he didn’t imagine for himself, but unable to escape it, Benny Duncan immerses himself in his job to avoid his home life.  With his future mapped out for him from birth by a pair of controlling parents, more concerned about their social stature, than the happiness of their only son, he always knew he was destined for this life.  It doesn’t mean he likes it, though. 

 . . . Nose As Long

 In her search for the truth, Makenna has to put herself in sometimes-dangerous positions, going above and beyond for her clients.  But what happens when a situation is not all it seems?  What happens when love is thrown into the mix?

 . . . As A Telephone Wire.

 To do her job properly, Makenna has to get involved, but not too involved.  It’s a fine line that she has managed to never cross.  Until now.  Until him.  Benny Duncan will turn her inside out, changing the world as she knows it.  She maybe powerful in all other aspects of her life, but Makenna is powerless against the biggest factor of all; true love.

*My Review*
Liar, Liar is about the life of Makenna Banks, the owner of a P.I company and Benjamin Duncan, a CEO of Duncan Realtors. And I guess your wondering how this story is about them and how everything turns out. Well I am surely not going to tell you that would just ruin the great adventure you are about to embark with these two incredible characters.

I will say this be prepared for different emotions to come to the surface while reading.

My opinion of this book is its a perfect stand alone novel there's no questions left unanswered. You certainly kept me on my toes through this romance. The way it's told in different perspectives you would think a whole different person wrote those specific parts.

Kasey you really drew me in right from the beginning, I didn't know what to expect considering I've only read your Cowboys down under series. I was majorly impressed with how you wrote this novel and look forward to many more of your novels to come.

It was a lie that brought them together, and a lie that will tear them apart.  Will the truth be enough to save their love?
