I do enjoy these series of books and especially enjoyed Andre’s. I think many of us would enjoy a book about ex-marine hunk so Alpha you just want to swoon. This is about Andre falling for someone who is in hiding, and finds himself looking after the woman of his dreams.
That the thing about these books are the woman are strong, even after suffering from a traumatic past. They come out stronger keeping the men on their toes. Kendell stands up for herself very well, and keeps Andre on his toes in and out of the bedroom. This is a great bit of escapism with lots of hot men, with plenty of hot sex thrown. I absolutely enjoyed every minute of it.  I can honestly say I read this in one go, it always great to see the rest of guys in action. So suspend believe  enjoy an evening of escapism.

Review: Rock Solid

Rock Solid by Carly Phillips
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on Behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
The first thing I have to say is, I loved Rock Solid, and fell in love with Conner who I thought  was great from the get go. I do like to read a feel good book, but with plenty of hot sex thrown in. What a great baby daddy, a real good solid guy who only gets naughty in the bedroom.
This is what most of us wish for a great guy, but sexy in the bedroom. Katie had a lot of issues to work through, most relating to her upbringing. Little Val was adorable especially with Conner.
It was a novel idea to have a really sexy good man, without a dark side. Who puts his woman and child first? All the time I was reading with a big smile on my face, and some days that all you want read?

Review: Wicked Torture

Wicked Torture by J. Kenner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It is always good to step inside the wider Stark world. In this standalone we meet Noah, who has survived a terrible personal tragedy losing his wife and daughter to kidnappers some years previously.
Kiki now on her own after her divorce, but runs a successful company and finally getting her life on track. I love second chance love stories they are usually older but not necessarily wiser. This was a complex love story, with the baggage Kiki carries from her childhood.
Noah carries guilt for how he left Kiki the first time, and guilt from the kidnapping and death of his wife and daughter Diana. The fact that is a second chance romance I think it mad all the emotional turmoil more understandable.
I loved this book it captivated me, and with the intense emotions Kiki and Noah felt I couldn’t put it down. I kept my fingers crossed for both of these damaged people.
That's all from me, as I don’t won’t to spoil anything for you. Even though it was a pleasure to step into the Stark world. This can be read as standalone.

Review: He Loves Me...KNOT

He Loves Me...KNOT by R.C. Boldt
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

He Loves me knot is the story of the runaway bride, who then has to work with her ex many years later.
This is the story of Emma Jane and Knox, we don’t get to know Knox until a little later. Emma Jane flies into a gay bar still in her wedding gown, absolutely heartbroken.
There she meets Beckett a star quarterback who is incognito, after telling her tale of woe which we don’t find out until much later in the book. Beckett is a great guy and helps Emma Jane to start a life in Jacksonville.
Trouble begins eight years later when Knox takes over the company where Emma Jane works. This is when Knox starts off being a dick, and as we get to know him. We realise how heartbroken he was when E.J didn’t to turn up to marry him.
We have flashbacks to tell the story from 8 years before. So as the book moves along we also see the past. I really enjoyable read from alternate points of view, when Knox joins us in the present.
They have to work together, and realise that they still have great chemistry, and then they fall in love with their new selves. Knox and Emma Jane were so good together. Beckett was as cute as matchmaker to Knox and Emma Jane. I can’t wait for Becker to get his own story.

Review: The Year of the Knife

The Year of the Knife by G.D. Penman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Reviewed on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
Sully is a powerfully witch that works for the IBI (Imperial Bureau of investigation) for the British Empire. It is her job to deal with the worst paranormal attacks in the American colonies. When a string of mass murders continues to happen, it is up to Sully find and stop the killer. But soon Sully realizes she may be dealing with someone with magic never seen before. Can Sully crack the case before it is too late?
I devoured this book, it was full of so many different paranormals which I loved. Witches, vamps, skin walkers, demons, it was a great mix and they fit into this world in ways you would not expect. For one, vampires are considered very lowly. They are banished, killed, hunted and at best ignored, pending what part of the world you are in. Humans know they are living with things that go bump in the night but the witches and other magic users keep them in line. I really got immersed in this world and thought it was well done. I don’t remember ever quite reading a book like this before, and considering all the paranormal books I have read, I’m pretty impressed.
Sully has to be the biggest badass witch I have ever read about. I just loved her character. She is awesomely powerful but she is not invincible. I liked that even with all her power, her life was still on the line, it made the story more exciting. I am not going to give anything more away, but I would love a sequel please Mr Penman. This has so many different elements in this story, that I think will appeal to a lot of readers.

This is a fun story about Vicky The dog whisperer and Henry the Eligible bachelor and CEO of Corke Industries.
Poor Vicky helps to look after a dog called Smuckers for an old lady that is dying, and leaves in her will 51% of the voting rights and a place on the board to her dog naming Vicky as Smuckers Guardian.

There many twists and turns and secrets exposed, as the path to true love is paved with obstacles. This an enjoyable and at times funny and  a sad read. Henry and Vicky were made for each other.
