Audiobook Review: Here with You

Image
  They call him The Mad One . A cocky hotshot on the racetrack. While I’m not a fan, we do agree on one thing: Maddox Hartley doesn’t want me in his life. Shadowing a recently retired racing champion for six weeks is a far cry from investigative journalism. But when your editor benches you, you make the consolation assignment count. Because my job isn’t just a paycheck, it’s justice for my brother. I’ll play along. I just didn’t count on him being so hard to resist. And the more time I spend in his orbit, the harder it is to remember why I can’t let myself want him. A reporter falling for her subject only ends one way—in ruins. I know better. Once my article runs, I’ll leave Winslow Grove behind. What I don’t’ realize yet is, the story was never on the line, it's always been my heart… My Review Grace and Maddox actually have more in common than they realize. They would if Maddox was not trying to avoid Grace. Yet, I understood where Maddox was coming from and why he was dodging ...

Book Review: Tether

Image
  At nineteen years old, surviving each day is the only thing I’ve become accustomed to. After losing my mother in a car accident, and spending my teenage years in the ruthless foster system–I’ve become too familiar with the cruelty and loneliness this world has to offer.

That is, until a letter arrived from my unfamiliar late grandfather's estate, deeming me the sole heir of his grand fortune, including Gravenhurst Manor and Hollowcrest Academy.

His charisma and magnetism call to me, but I can’t stop my heart from being drawn to another–the brooding groundskeepe...

Book Review: Her Crew

Image
  Her Crew is a LIGHT GRAY story with medium spice level and high angst! I made myself unattractive for a reason. He still found me beautiful. Tegan I spent eighteen years barely surviving. Life taught me early on that no one was coming to save me. Then I met Alec. One impulsive decision lands me in a traveling crew of hustlers and outcasts who become the closest thing I've ever had to a family.

But life on the road isn’t easy, and every con comes with a price. As feelings deepen and loyalties are tested, I'll have to decide if I can trust the family I've found . . . or risk losing everything I've ever wanted.

Audiobook Reviews: Spicy Times with C. Hallman

Image
  A Dark Captive Romance Even before I met them I knew they were trouble. It was supposed to be a simple prison transfer that ended up anything but. Hunter and Ryker were two hardened criminals that shouldn’t look as good as they do. As a police officer it was my job to follow the rules and that meant ignoring whatever feelings these men stirred in me. I read their files. Ryker likes to torture people to death. So when they kidnap me, I know my fate is sealed. I’ll do anything to survive, but will it be enough? My Review Annie has to be tough. She works around dangerous criminals. She never imagined that a ride with prisoners would turn into a forced proximity situation. Two of the criminals, Hunter and Ryker take Annie. Ryker is the leader and therefore has a bully attitude. Hunter brings moments of laughter with his joking persona. Yet, when it really mattered, both guys help Annie.  This novella is one SPICY read or in my case listen. I listened to the audiobook.

Audiobook Review; Out of the Shadows

Image
Some girls want the perfect guy handed to them on a silver platter. Me? I found him all on my own. But life isn’t a fairy tale, and my so-called Prince Charming is convinced he’s not good enough for me. He’s wrong. Colt Michaels is all quiet strength and smoldering intensity, checking every box I never knew I had. A force of nature wrapped in broad shoulders, piercing blue eyes, and a crooked grin that leaves me breathless. He was everything I wanted, wrapped up in a package that somehow went unnoticed by everyone else. There's just one problem: Colt keeps his distance, no matter how badly I want to get close. He doesn’t see what I see—a man who’s everything I’ve ever wanted. But I’m not the type to sit back and hope for the best. When the perfect opportunity arises, I make my move. Fake dating him might sound like a scheme, but it’s the only way to prove what I’ve known all along: we’re meant to be. He thinks he’s not good enough for me. I’ll prove him wrong. My Review This is my ...
