Book Review: Splitting the D

Image
  He’s the fire I was never meant to touch. I’m the ice prince who can’t seem to stay frozen. Artemis: Graduate. Dominate. No distractions—especially cocky sophomores like Xavier Martinez. Every stolen kiss in the shadows, every brush of his hand, sends cracks splintering through the walls I swore would never break. He sees the mess underneath the ice prince. And now the sight of him across the rink feels less like rivalry and more like self-destructive obsession. He’s bad decisions in gray sweatpants, sin-slick confidence, the rival team’s golden boy. My antithesis. My counterpoint. My favorite chaos gremlin. One slip, and I hand my father the proof he's always wanted—that I was never enough to bear the de la Peña name. I can’t afford to want him, but he’s determined to prove that imperfection tastes better than any win. Xavier: I’ve spent my life chasing light—now I’m falling for the man who makes the dark feel like home. Artemis makes me feel chosen, but at the rink, I'm st...

Book Review: The Fly-Half and the Fling

Image
  Rhiannon I walked out of my wedding and straight into the arms of a stranger. One night. No names. No regrets. Until I find out who he really is—Robert McAllister, the investigative journalist who nearly destroyed my family. Now the tabloids think we’re a couple, and the only way to control the chaos is to fake-date the man my whole family hates. Smile for the cameras. Lie through your teeth. Try not to punch him in the throat. And whatever you do, don't fall for the enemy. Robert Sleeping with Rhiannon Morrigan hours after she jilted her fiancé wasn't my smartest move. She’s a rugby icon. A walking headline. Off-limits in every way, and the one subject I swore I wouldn’t write about. But my editor’s ultimatum is clear—write her story or lose my job. Now we’re faking it for the press, and I’m holding the biggest scoop of my career... If I write it, I’ll lose her. If I don’t, I might lose everything else. My Review Rhiannon is a force to be reckoned with. She could have taken ...

Book Review: Riding the Pine

Image
  Some crushes never fade—they just burn deeper. Scott Hockey was my ticket out—my one-way pass to a better life. I've been laser-focused: graduate, get drafted, and build a career that proves I'm more than just another farm kid with big dreams. Athena de la Peña was always the one mesmerizing distraction I couldn't afford. She’s my best friends’ older sister, and way out of my league. But when she's hurt and vulnerable, my carefully planned future becomes secondary. Everything I've worked for means nothing compared to protecting her. She deserves someone who'll fight for her, stay for her, even if she doesn’t think she needs it. Athena Scott Raine was always there—my brothers' best friend, the guy who saw me when no one else did. After my assault, I'm broken, raw, and searching for something solid. Suddenly, he's my rock. The boy who watched me from afar is now the man holding me together, fighting my battles, and showing me what real love looks lik...

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: Pulling the Goalie

Image
  Can the girl who hides in the shadows date a guy who chases the spotlight? Eloise: Ares de la Peña: VIP hockey goalie, stripper, bisexual playboy. He lives for the limelight. He’s everything I should avoid, yet I’m drawn to him in ways I don’t understand. As our worlds collide, I discover he’s more than just the flashy heir to a billion dollar fortune. I’ll never fit into his world. But I want to. Ares: What is it about this girl? She hides her scars behind her bright hair, quirky clothing, and striking lipstick, but I see her. She’s the calm that quiets my demons, while running from her own. My reputation precedes me, which is usually a good thing, but in this case her preconceived notions about me aren’t working in my favor. How can I make her see that what we have is far more than skin deep? My Review I am really enjoying this new hockey series by author, Lasairiona. It is so spicy, and I can't wait to continue this series. Ares already gets a win with his name, but he gets a ...
