Review: My Savior

My Savior My Savior by Winter Travers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Spunky N Sassy Rating: 5.0

~~~~~~~~~~Tracy's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

Olive was almost blown up while cleaning the Iron Fiends MC's gym. Now she is hurt and has been sent a savior whether she wants one or not. Her only focus has been her precocious son Rocky and now Cue Ball is making himself indispensable. I loved this quick read and I gobbled it up. Rocky had me cracking up and Cue Ball made me swoon. Olive is such a strong woman and I loved how she struggled to depend on someone else. I can't wait for My Romeo next, such a great series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Spunky N Sassy Rating: 5.0

~~~~~~~~~~Tracy's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

Grim fell for Violet the first time he saw her but he also knew she belonged to someone else. So when she ends up needing Saints Purgatory's help it gives him a chance to help the one woman he is drawn too and can't stop thinking of her. Violet has never felt as safe as she does with Grim but the hell from her past won't let her go. She finds out many secrets along the way and doesn't know what or who to believe. I love this series so much and I love all the various stories of all the Saint Purgatory MC family.

~~~~~~~~~~Julie's⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

Grim and Violet are brought together kind of by chance and fate takes over from there. Great writing with a storyline that is simply amazing.

The Lovely Return




Title: The Lovely Return
Author: Carian Cole
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Age Gap/Second Chance/Small Town
Grumpy/Sunshine
Release Date: November 30, 2023


BLURB

What if death doesn’t do you part?

They say be careful what you wish for. But on December 5th, Alex Fox makes a wish in the midst of a devastating tragedy. Little did he know, that wish would come true.

Six years after that fateful day, a little girl wanders into Alex’s studio. With her quirky personality, endless questions, and adorable smile, Penny Rose becomes an enchanting, yet bittersweet, distraction.

Penny Rose was an odd girl—at least, that’s what her parents said. Penny herself didn’t feel particularly odd; she simply felt misplaced. As if somehow, in some way, she was living in the wrong place. In the wrong life.

As the years pass, Alex and Penny develop a friendship. But it becomes harder and harder for them to ignore their undeniable chemistry, no matter how forbidden it is.

Alex believed he’d never find love again, let alone fall for a girl half his age. But Penny is everything he could ever want or need. Not only is she caring, witty, and beautiful, but she accepts the past that haunts him.

Penny couldn’t be happier. She’s been head over heels for sexy, brooding artist Alex Fox since she was six years old. But when her childhood dreams start resurfacing again—dreams of a life with Alex way before they ever met—she starts to think they’re not dreams at all.

They’re memories.

Penny’s revelation to Alex threatens to tear them apart, making them question the impossible and unbelievable.

Can love truly transcend time and death, giving them a second chance at their happily ever after? Or is Penny battling a broken mind that has led her down a path of heartbreaking delusion?

Blurb:

Naya
I saved a man’s life.
How was I supposed to know he was the leader of the Lacroix family, the man who owned half the city? More importantly, how was I supposed to know my brother was the one responsible for the death of his wife?
But when he threatens retribution, what choice do I have except to take my brother’s place? Only, his solution is for me to marry his son, a man who makes my senses fuzzy and my skin hot.
A man who is willing to forfeits his entire fortune to turn me down. A man who whispers just how much he hates me every night while dismantling my entire world with just a touch.

Thoran

Father is out of his mind if he thinks I would ever marry the sister of the man responsible for killing my mother. I don’t care if her eyes burn my soul, or that the way she says my name makes me hard. I would rather make her beg than put a ring on her finger.
But a Lacroix contract is ironclad. She has no choice. One way or another, she is about to become a part of the family.
Over my dead body.
Naya Blackwell has no idea just how far I’m willing to go to make sure she regrets ever saying yes. Even if I have to destroy her — body and soul — little by little for the rest of our lives.

A Mafia Mistress for Christmas

 


Title: A Mafia Mistress for Christmas

Author: Brooke Harper

Genre: Dark Mafia Romance

Cover Designer: Everly Yours Cover Designs

Publication Date: Nov. 30th, 2023

Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR


Blurb: 

The greatest gifts aren't always wrapped in paper...

Call me a grinch but Christmas sucks. Always has. So when there’s an opportunity at work to infiltrate the Zicari Syndicate during their Christmas Eve bash, I jump at the chance.

The plan is simple: assume the identity of a seductive mafia mistress with dangerous tastes, and infiltrate the underground crime kingdom. I am prepared for the risks, but the unwanted attention is something entirely new. Specifically from Marco, the wickedly handsome younger brother and right-hand man of the monstrous Stefan Zicari.

Marco isn’t my intended target, but he has a hidden agenda of his own. Instead of killing me, he proposes we form an unlikely alliance. We’ll play pretend, with me standing in as Marco’s newest fling so that we can collect the evidence needed to bring down his brother’s criminal empire for good. And if we’re lucky, Stefan will be in handcuffs before jolly old Saint Nick comes down the chimney.

But things are quickly shifting between us. It’s not long before our acting crosses the line into something real, tempting, and dangerous. Being together can jeopardize everything we’ve worked for and get us killed.

Our charade was only supposed to be for the Christmas holiday, but now I’m wishing I could be Marco’s Mafia mistress all year long.

A Mafia Mistress for Christmas 
is a holiday mafia romance novella. This story is a quick read that contains some darker themes and lots of heat.




Brooke Harper creates dark and sexy worlds for her characters to play. A lover of strong coffee and old tombstones, she spins dark tales of sex and sin, pain and passion, and misery and madness that’ll have you flipping the pages and begging for more.

A Risk Worth Taking


Title: A Risk Worth Taking
Author: Nikki Ash
Release: January 25, 2024
Genre: Hidden Identity, Fourteen year age gap, Secret pregnancy, Broken Heroine, Romantic Suspense
Cover Designer: Jersey Girl Design @JerseyGirlDesign



Ellie

Lincoln Alexander might think he’s too old for me, but he’s wrong. A fourteen-year age gap is nothing when you’re desperate to feel alive again.

The wealthy business owner has only ever seen me as off limits, but he has the power to put me back together—to chase away my demons with just his touch.

So, for one intense night, without him knowing who I am, I put my trust and pleasure in his hands.

My plan is to walk away, ready to move forward with my life, but when the doctor tells me that I’m pregnant, I find myself taking two steps back.

Lincoln

One night isn’t enough with the masked, green-eyed woman who walked into my club and turned my world upside down.

After I gave her what she wanted, again and again, she walked away without a trace.

When I finally discover the identity of the mysterious beauty who stole my heart on Valentine’s Day—and the secret she’s been keeping—my heart stops.

Ellie Bardot is all grown up, but I remember the innocent girl she was, even if she doesn’t. I hate that she lied to me, almost as much as I hate that I still want her.

Now I’m torn between being the man she needs me to be and doing the right thing.
