  All I wanted was a break from my small town life. Not to be stuck driving across the country with my older brother's gorgeous, infuriating best friend. Charming, cocky federal agent Scott Dunn is back in my life. And I hate him. Four years ago, Scotty was the center of every one of my fantasies. He was funny, kind, and eleven years older than me–a protector. But one ill-timed confession and he vanished from my life without so much as a goodbye. Now I am called to testify against the men who kidnapped me and the gorgeous, infuriating man I tried so hard to forget is assigned to protect me. I want answers and he refuses to give them. But as much as he claims to hate me too, I see the way his eyes linger on my skin. How his hands itch to reach out. He understands me in a way I’ve never let another man get close enough to know. My scars, physical and emotional, are a constant reminder of the girl I used to be. A girl I try to forget. As we travel across the country, the tension and s

  Maddie            Work, sleep, and sometimes eat. Rinse and repeat. That’s been my life for the past two years. One struggle after another.             Fighting to keep my sister alive.             Fighting to maintain the strength to not give up.            I had everything under control. I had a routine. Order. Until a certain Mr. Tall-Dark-and-Handsome turned my world on its axis.            He’s relentless. No matter how much I shut him down, he keeps showing up.                        Theo            I make it a habit to always get what I want. Either through brute force or by outsmarting my opponent.            I never lose.            I never hear the words no.            Until the day I walked into a coffee shop and saw her.            Maddie doesn’t know who she’s dealing with. She doesn’t know just how relentless I am when I want something.            And right now, that something is the mousy brunette glaring at me from behind the counter. This is book 1 in a series of fou

  The moment Davina heard her trash cans tip over and a man shouting in her yard, should’ve been the moment she stayed in her home. Or, the moment she called the police. But instead, she stormed outside, and shouted at him. This is the moment her Christmas took a turn, going from lonely to filled with desire and three men that will change her forever. My Review I really enjoyed this quick, steamy novella from one of my favorite authors. It was giving my vibes of another one of KM's books, The Demons of Hawthrone Manor. Which I really enjoyed that book as well. Unwrapped is just the gift I needed this holiday season! Davina is one very luckily woman to have three guys desire her. There is no picking favorites of the three men, Daire, Win, and Ty. I loved all three men. This may be a novella, but it will satisfy you like a full length three hundred page book. If it is your first book, I do suggest read The Demons of Hawthrone Manor next.

After her death I go to stay with an uncle I didn’t know existed to try to make sense of my life and find some answers about who I really am. As I search for the truth a guy named Peter shows up and makes it his mission to constantly get in my personal space. He’s gorgeous, flirty and completely infuriating. And possibly not actually human or from this world. The things he tells me sound insane and I don’t think

Brutal Obsession by S. Massery is now live!   He shattered my leg, and now he wants to ruin the rest of me. Greyson Devereux is a menace–but only to me. To everyone else, he’s charismatic. He’s the son of a senator and the star of the university’s hockey team. When all I want is to be invisible, he drags me into the spotlight. He wants my blood, my fear, my attention. Resisting him only worsens his obsession. Fighting solidifies it. He’s brutal, and he draws out a sick darkness in me that enjoys it. But I’ll be damned if I let him become my downfall. My Review Greyson may be hot on the ice but he is even hotter off. He is intense in a smothering, sexy way. That makes you just want to be all over him. Luckily, Violet feels the same way. The teasing going on between these two, made for very steamy moments. While Greyson may seem like he is in charge, don't count Violet out. She can hold her own and even calls some of the shots as well. Love a strong woman and e

  The murders may be over, but my heartache is back in full force, thanks to my mother and my own misgivings. When I return to Winter Grove early and end up relying on the pack to help me out, I’m sure it’s a new form of torture. Instead, I find myself growing closer to August and Foster. I can’t help but think they’re dragging me deeper underwater, with no intention of letting me up for air anytime soon. My Review Now that Mercy has been accepted into Dorian's pack; the four of them have really been finding their groove together. With Vile Boys, the first book in this duet, I was a fan of Dorian. Yet, with this book, August and Foster get to shine more. Foster was the quieter one in the group in the first book, so he did not stand out as much. However, he got his turn, and I was a fan. However, August and Foster's relationship was good as well.  It was great to see Mercy grow stronger as well. She is the right omega for these guys. She needed to be strong with another alpha lo
