Book Review: #Bossholes

Image
  What to expect in #Bossholes… *Workplace Romance *Age Gap *Three Grumpy Heroes *Sunshine Heroine *Opposites Attract *Enemies to Lovers *Online Auction (wink) *Plenty of Dirty Talk *All The Possessive Vibes *LOL Banter *HEA *No cheating A new steamy workplace age gap why choose romcom standalone! I didn’t plan on working for one grumpy boss, let alone three. And I sure as heck didn’t plan on selling them my virginity. Wyatt Ellis, Brantley Ellis and Maverick Wallace are just as pretentious as their names sound. Who cares if they’re gorgeous billionaires. They are the literal worst. Between the long hours, the snippy comments, and the last minute requests you’d think even one of them would get my name right. Nope. They’re infuriating. Insufferable. Overbearing. Unfortunately I need this job. Especially after an unexpected expense, makes me desperate and I need to look at getting some cash and quick but there’s only one thing I have worth selling. My V-card. I really shouldn’t have ...

Turns out, I left something with her too. And he has my eyes. Playing football is the only thing I’ve ever been good at and the thought of being a dad after my own is such a deadbeat, terrifies me. But my son  will  know who I am.. And June? The girl I haven’t stopped thinking about for four years? I wasn’t ready for her back then and I’m not sure that’s changed. I can’t afford distractions. Not with my contract ending at the end of the season. So why do I invite them to l...

Book Review: Loose End

Image
  A one night stand with a sexy stranger? No names, no strings? It sure isn't how I thought I’d be spending my wedding night. Today was an epic disaster. I was supposed to be walking down the aisle in front of all my friends and family, getting married to a man I thought I was supposed to be spending the rest of my life with, not drowning my sorrows in a vodka soda. But after finding my fiancé intimately getting to know his best man, I was out of options…and a groom. So I hiked up my wedding dress and walked to the nearest bar. In my defense, I wasn’t looking for a one night stand, but then he came in with his irresistible dimples, his gigantic muscles, and a smirk that knocked the tiara straight off my head. He was arrogant, charming, and offered me more orgasms in one night than I’ve had in my entire life. I’m not ready for a relationship, but maybe one night with my Prince Charming is exactly what I need to put this day behind me. Especially if he can make Good on all of his pro...

Book Review: My Brother's Teammates

Image
  What do you get when you cross a curvy seamstress with three hot hockey players? A pucking disaster. My escape plan seemed foolproof - retreat to my brother's empty apartment after catching my ex with another man. But I stumble into an unexpected complication: his hockey player roommates...and I'm stark naked. Despite my mortifying entrance, and against my better judgment, they’re willing to let me stay but with a few rules: 1. No funny business. 2. No telling the team captain - aka my brother - Harrison. 3. It's temporary until I can find somewhere else to live. At first, the boundaries hold. But simmering tension and close quarters makes resisting temptation harder with each passing day. The simmering tension threatens to combust, blurring the lines we swore not to cross. But how can we go back after crossing that line? And what happens when my brother inevitably finds out? My Review Charlotte sure made a lasting first impression on her new housemates. The angsty build ...

Book Review: Bossy Devil

Image
  There’s absolutely no way I’d ever work for my ex-boyfriend. Besides, the only thing he needs help with is pulling the stick from his perfectly sculpted backside. Gordon Benson is the one man I never wanted to see again. He’s grumpy, antagonistic, and so irritatingly more attractive than he was 12 years ago. Those biceps, that muscular chest, those dark green eyes that still manage to get me all twisted up…it’s not fair. I broke up with him. He demolished my heart. End of story. Or at least it was until I ran into him after a figure skating gig. And then his sister offered me a job as their executive assistant —a job I didn’t need until the company I worked for went bankrupt. So, here I am, selling my soul to the actual Devil to make sure me and my daughter are taken care of. The daughter who shares his DNA and yet he acts like she doesn’t exist. I keep telling myself this job is only temporary, that I’ll find something else, but the more I stay here, the more the Nashville Devil...

Book Review: Jingle Devil

Image
  There are two things I can't quite get enough of this holiday season: white peppermint mochas and my assistant, Tessa Risen. She's half my age and touching even an inch of her flawless skin would land me on the naughty list for good. But after an office mishap ends with her face in my lap, I propose a bet. If the Devils win their next hockey game, she agrees to be my date to a Christmas charity dinner, and if they lose, I'll give her anything she wants. I just hope it's me. Because the only thing I want to unwrap this Christmas is her. And I'll stop at nothing to win her heart. Even if I have to fight dirty. Jingle Devil is a laugh out loud, pucking steamy, office sports romance with an age gap and a little holiday bet. This book is a standalone novella with no cheating, cliffhangers, and a guaranteed happily ever after. My Review Melissa delivers with this short and spicy novella. I may have snort laughed with Tessa face planted in Mick's lap. If this is not ...

Book Review: False Start

Image
  Holy mother-forking shirtballs. I shouldn’t know what my best friend’s trouser snake feels like. I shouldn’t but after waking up naked in his bed with IT pressed against me, I do. So, even though nothing happened between us, I promptly freak out. Silently, of course, because I don’t want to risk waking him up. And now I have a problem. For the past six years, I’ve been perfectly content looking the other way every time I see Hudson running across the football field in those tight pants or walking around our house shirtless, but now I’m noticing everything. Especially the way he looks in those jeans. And he’s not looking at me like someone who’s just a friend. So when he suggests one night of no strings fun to get it out of our systems, I’m powerless to say no. And then everything will go back to normal. Or at least that’s the plan. My Review First off let me say that having read several books by Melissa now that I am aware of the kind of heat that she brings to her stories. Yet, ...

Book Review: Summer Hate

Image
  He was the last person I wanted to see on my girls’ trip, let alone share a room with. Donovan Fitzroy is grumpy. Irritable. Annoyingly perfect. And as handsome as he is uptight. He’s also my best friend’s older brother and the one man I’ve avoided for a decade. And for good reason. So imagine my surprise when my bestie abandons me at her family-owned resort and I’m left alone with her brother. After spending five minutes with him, I’m ready to drive back to Tennessee, but it’s getting dark, and he insists I wait till morning. As much as I’d love to tell him to shove his hospitality where the sun don’t shine, I’m exhausted. I can survive one night in the same cabin. Right? Only when morning comes, Donovan needs help. With no event coordinator and the end-of-summer bash to plan in less than a week, he’s in over his head. I should walk away. I should go home and never lay eyes on him again. Between him thinking I can’t do it, and my former, very unwanted feelings rearing their stup...

Broody Devil

Image
  The last thing I need is a wife. Especially if it’s the one woman who can't stand me. I’m the bad boy of the NHL. The enforcer with a mean punch and bad attitude. The ladies don’t seem to mind and my stick is always ready to go. So, I have a few scandals. Who doesn’t? Everything was fine until she clicked into my life with her hot pink Barbie heels. After one too many tabloid exploits, my career is in jeopardy, and she demands I clean up my act. I can’t not say no. Even if I want to. The stakes are too great. Turns out I’m not so good at behaving and even drag Miss Perfect into the mud when we wake up naked, hungover, and wearing matching wedding bands. But it’s one problem I can fix with an easy annulment. That is, until the press and her parents come knocking on our door. Now, we have to pretend to like each other. Wouldn’t be too hard except I’m finding I like having her under my skin. When this fake marriage gets checked, can I convince my wife I’m worth the risk? Broody Devi...

Book Review: Untamed Devil

Image
  I'm not ready to be a single dad... I had my life all figured out. Hockey. A revolving door of women. No strings. No worries. Until my sister runs off with a man she's just met and leaves my nine-year-old niece in my living room with nothing but a backpack, a stuffed snake named Leo, and a broken heart. I need help. Elle Hurst was only supposed to be in my life for one night--a curvy distraction with a big heart and a wicked sense of humor. But she's volunteered to watch Chloe while she's in town, and I have no choice but to let her. It can't last. She has an expiration date, a life to get back to in Savannah, and I don't do relationships. I know people don't stick around no matter how much you want them to--it's a lesson I've been taught my whole life. I won't risk losing my heart...or will I?   My Review What a yummy, quick read. Untamed Devil is right. Tag is a handsome devil. Although, Elle is a bit cheeky herself. While, I did love these t...

Mistletoe Mischief

  Julia Rowe isn’t just my best friend’s little sister. She’s a beautiful, talented baker and anytime I get within five feet of her, my blood heads south for the winter. She’s got me more tangled than a box of Christmas lights. I’ve been in love with her for longer than I can remember. Too bad, she’s also the only woman I’m not allowed to touch. Why? Because of a promise I made to her brother years ago. Not to mention, she hates me. Now, we’re under the same roof, and I’m not sure I can resist her. With Christmas right around the corner, can I show her I’ve changed? Or will I ruin my chances, destroy Christmas and lose my best friend? I may be in need of a Christmas miracle. My Review This is a very quick read. One that I started and finished in one evening. Who says Christmas can't come in July. Mistletoe and Mischief is a sweet treat that is sure to delight romance readers who love a good enemies to lover story! While, this is a novella it did have everything that I enjoy from a ...
