Pucking with My Head by Melissa Huxley

3 Stars

They were my student’s single dads, and now I’m their pregnant Omega…

My life was complicated enough with family expectations and boundaries I couldn’t cross. I didn’t need more on my plate, but I couldn’t resist.

The only plan was to help their daughter learn to skate and give them a helping hand with an extra nanny gig, filling my time with people who made me happy. Nothing else was supposed to happen. We all made that very clear.

But biology had other ideas…

My heat came, and with no way to stop it, I pulled in the three Alphas I had been pushing away, all desire to keep our lives strictly professional thrown out the window. That should have been the end of it, us going our separate ways, but life wasn’t done with the surprises just yet.

With a baby on the way, a double dose of family drama, one excited little girl, and four parents trying to get life to stop pucking with our heads… things certainly weren’t easy, but I had to hope it was worth fighting for.

This was a solid omegaverse read. I liked Beth a lot as she is trying to do so much. The guys were also nice. Some more that others. The book flowed nicely.

Best Friend Temptation by Carrie Ann Ryan

4 Stars

I fell for my best friend long before I knew what that meant. Only I know he’ll never love me back.

He’s stuck in his head and his past demons and can’t see what is right in front of him.

But when Greer loses her home and needs a place to stay, both Noah and I know the only place she belongs is with us—in every way possible.

Now I’m falling for both of my roommates and trying to keep the people I protect safe.

Only someone is coming for them, and I can’t stop the inevitable fall.

I just have to hope that we made the right choices and that one day soon Noah and Greer will finally see who we can be.

Before we lose it all…or I finally walk away for good.

I loved this one so much. The give and take between the three was in the fore front of this book and I loved it. The mystery part was very much secondary but still enjoyable. loved the narrators

Doting Billionaire’s Precious Bride by Ava Selwin

 

2 Stars

A single glance from her, and he seizes the chance he’s waited ten years for—now she belongs to him.

“I run an empire. I’ll never marry a hothead like her who snaps at everything.”

Kara overhears Asher Flynn, her long-time crush, mocking her on her birthday.

Heartbreak leads her to one reckless night with Damion Cage—a billionaire and her old schoolmate, hailed as the ‘Holy Deity’ for his untouchable reputation.

“My company’s going public in three months. I can’t afford a scandal. Let’s get married.”

Within just 24 hours, Kara becomes ‘Mrs. Cage’!

It’s a deal—three months of marriage and then freedom. Or so Kara thinks.

Damion, obsessively in love with her for a decade, has no plans of letting her go. Behind his calm exterior, his truth burns—‘I’m not a ‘holy deity,’ Kara. My thoughts for you are far from pure. I’m selfish, trapping you. But you’re my deity, and now that you’re mine, I’ll worship you with everything I have.’

Asher Flynn rages with regret, desperate to undo the moment he lost Kara forever.

But Kara is no longer his to claim.

Damion’s mission is clear: to ensure Asher knows, without a doubt, that Kara belongs to him. And if Asher dares challenge that… Damion will destroy him.

It was a good idea but so poorly written. Some reviews said it was Ai written and that actually makes sense.

Long Time Crush by Carrie Ann Ryan

4 Stars

When my best friend and I fell for the same guy in middle school, I stepped back.
I'd always expected to dance at their wedding.
Not sit in the back pew of her funeral.
I left town for my own reasons, but now that I'm back, it’s clear Sebastian Montgomery isn't the same man I left.
He's hard. Broken.
And a single father to an adorable little girl.
When it turns out he’s my new neighbor, I can’t stay away.
But I know I’m playing with fire and the heat between us burns enough to scorch.
I thought I was over my crush.
But now it might crush me.

I loved this book so much. I loved Sebastion, Raven, and Nora. Nora was so cute throughout this book. Seb and Raven have issues they have to work through and I loved the process. I don’t think the book needed the stalker but it was fine. I loved all of it and the narrators did an excellent job.

Happiness is Earned by Letty Frame

 

2 Stars

I’ve fought death. I’ve mastered survival. Now, I’ll willingly bleed for happiness. Because happiness isn’t given—it’s earned.

Six years ago, I lost everything when my fated mate rejected me—my family, my pack, even my wolf.

But against all odds, I found something worth fighting for again: my mates, the other parts of my soul. They’ve caught me every time I fell. They’ve loved me even when I was broken. And with their unwavering love, I’ve mostly pieced myself back together.

But as I step out of the shadows of my darkness, it makes me a much clearer target for the hunters to attack.

My men are gearing up for the final fight, planning the strike that could end it all, but when fate delivers one last, unexpected gift, everything I thought I knew about my future changes forever.

Family ties shift all around me—the parents who betrayed me when I was rejected, the sister who stole the life that should’ve been mine, and the brother who loved me through it all. Each one is tested—and not everyone survives the reckoning of Alpha Atticus Phoenix.

Happiness isn’t a gift. It’s a choice. A fight. A sacrifice.

And if I want to keep the future we’ve bled for, I’ll have to face every shadow that’s ever haunted me—without losing the men who’ve become my everything.

Reading the last book was a mistake. This series started nicely and then just fizzled out. I would definitely skip it. There was no growth with Nora at all and she never works through her trauma.

Book 3 Second Chances

Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez

3 Stars

After a wild bet, gourmet grilled-cheese sandwich, and cuddle with a baby goat, Alexis Montgomery has had her world turned upside down. The cause: Daniel Grant, a ridiculously hot carpenter who’s ten years younger than her and as casual as they come—the complete opposite of sophisticated city-girl Alexis. And yet their chemistry is undeniable.

While her ultra-wealthy parents want her to carry on the family legacy of world-renowned surgeons, Alexis doesn’t need glory or fame. She’s fine with being a “mere” ER doctor. And every minute she spends with Daniel and the tight-knit town where he lives, she’s discovering just what’s really important. Yet letting their relationship become anything more than a short-term fling would mean turning her back on her family and giving up the opportunity to help thousands of people.

Bringing Daniel into her world is impossible, and yet she can’t just give up the joy she’s found with him either. With so many differences between them, how can Alexis possibly choose between her world and his?

Pretty solid read. I loved the give and take between FMC and MMC. Watching them find a way to their HEA was fun. I loved the struggles FMC had figuring out her HEA. Definitely interested in more books by this author.

A Giant Love by Flora Quincy

4 Stars

He was a giant.

She was a socialite.

Can I make it anymore obvious?

Society's golden girl, Charis Grace, is about to make an indecent proposal to her cousin's sexy as sin ex-husband.

It's that or give up her trust fund.

But if he says yes, what does he get out of this unusual arrangement?

Hephaestus has been lusting after Charis for sixteen years.

She’s pure, untouchable but that doesn’t stop him wanting to show her exactly what men like him do to women like her.

When she walks into his forge, all bets are off. She’s his and nothing and no one will stand in his way.

I love Greek stories and this one hit all the right notes. Hephestus is one of those forgotten gods and this one gives him a HEA in the best way possible. I loved Charis and how she was with him. I just wish the author was still writing cause I want so much more from her.
