Cam work is my dirty little secret. After my mother deserted me with no way to pay my tuition, I had nowhere else to turn.

But maybe I should have checked to make sure my stepfather's cabin wasn't already booked for the week.

They blackmail me, humiliate me, and tease me. They take away my ability to say no, until I can’t stop saying yes.

It’s wrong. It’s taboo. It threatens everything I’ve worked for. And I can't get enough of them.

But when their enemies threaten the private oasis we’ve created for ourselves, I have to decide. Should I fight for my freedom? Or do I admit that being owned by them feels better than freedom ever could?

Never Fall for the Bride’s Father by Julia Kent

3 Stars

Power outages. Runaway brides. Collapsed wedding cakes. Tainted caviar. Handsy grooms. And the always classic: jealous MILs who wear white. No wedding catastrophe can faze Katie Gallagher, because when you plan for the worst, you deliver the best.

The best wedding ever.

Her company, Wedding Protectors, Inc., promises happily ever afters. Guaranteed. Whatever it takes. But always-prepared Katie? She’s steering clear of her own HEA. Years of dating older, wealthy, alpha businessmen who treat her like an ornament has left a bad taste in her mouth.

And some bruises on her ego. Love is her job. Not her destiny. So when she falls for silver fox and self-made millionaire Patrick Cooper, she breaks a rule so taboo, it doesn’t technically exist: Never fall for the bride’s father.

Enter Patrick, a widowed art dealer with salt-and-pepper charm. He can't resist trying to share an Uber with the captivating, enticingly stubborn blonde. Their encounter? Classic enemies-to-lovers. Sparks fly, but not the good kind... at first.

Starting off on the wrong foot left a terrible impression, but when a series of coincidences pushes them together, the more time they spend with each other, the more the lines blur.

Chance favors the risk-takers, so when he takes a leap of faith and gets a passionate kiss that rocks his world, Katie opens closed doors in his heart.

Can he really have a new soulmate — Or is this just a May-December fling?

 

I loved how the books started with the conflict between Katie and Patrick. Patrick was a major dick and stole her uber. He tries to make it up to her but it’s too little to late for Katie. They eventually find out who the other is which leads to Patrick really trying to make it up to her. It was a fine book after this conflict, but I felt it missed the mark for a really good book. I never felt like there was a big connection between them as there is such a jump in the timeline. You don’t see them spending a ton of time together and that led me to feel like it was mostly lust and not love. The first book could get away with this style as they were a second chance at love with a past. Katie and Patrick don’t have that and needed more screen time to get that connection. Still love Julia Kent and will look forward to her next one.

Book 2 Whatever It Takes

Amazon 

Glass by Evelyn Flood

4 Stars

Hope is a delicate thing. Like glass. So delicate that once it shatters, it will never be the same again.

Vilified.

Despised.

Ruined.

Anastasia Cooper is the most hated woman in Sorelle. To avoid the modern slavery charges leveled against her by her scheming stepsister, she opts for a quiet life under house arrest to escape the frenzy of the media.

But she wasn’t banking on them. The Tate brothers.

Feared by all, everyone knows that Christopher, Silas and Rafael Tate are the real power behind the throne of Sorelle. And they’ve been looking for Stasi for a very long time.

Determined to make Stasi’s life as difficult as possible, Kit, Silas and Rafe take every opportunity to remind her how far she’s fallen. But Stasi has her own plans, and she’s not about to let the men who stole her heart once before and smashed it into pieces ruin the only thing she has left.

Hope.

But as truths come to light, the Tate brothers begin to realize that they might not have the full story.

And they won’t let Stasi slip through their fingers again.

 

This would have been 5 stars review except I don’t think Stasi actually had smexy time with all of her men. I still loved the book and felt it was a nice balance of bullying and groveling to make up for the bullying. I loved how it all played out with Stasi and the guys. I can’t wait for the next book to see what else the author does.

Book 2 Forbidden Fairytales

Amazon 

Chaos Tempted by Yve Vale

3 Stars

I finally win my freedom. But will the cost ruin us?

Preventing a realm war isn’t as simple as we had hoped.

Our enemies are closer to their victory than we wanted to believe.

The threats against my life have not abated.

In fact, I’m in more danger now that I’ve chosen to stay with the three elves, and Prince Eldrin has named me the human ambassador to afford me more protection. But my elevated status has the opposite effect.

In response, Eldrin gathers allies to stop his father’s intent to ignite a war. We must prevent the chaos from destroying everything we know.

With my newfound bonds comes a strange magic, and I foresee that Princess Twyla is destined to betray her father, the mortal king.

Are we strong enough to prevent the disasters we face?

 

This book continues where the last book left off. Movement in the relationship between Wyn and her men. More info is revealed about the different plots to start a war and it ends on a cliff again. I don’t feel like there was enough movement in the story and this felt more like a bridge book and maybe should have been combined with the last one but it was still good. I’m curious to see where the next book takes us.

Book 3 Fae Hearted

Amazon 

His Human Widow by Michelle Mills

3 Stars

I married a dead war hero.

His name was Fire Lieutenant Byric Sandstone—an extremely wealthy Hyrrokin landowner, with a complicated estate.

Obviously, I’m not really his widow. It’s a technicality, on paper so I could bypass immigration and perform my duties. Everyone but the lawyer who forged the signature thinks I’m really Byric’s chosen bound, but my real job is to care for his elderly grandmother and his three-headed wulver. I love my cushy life on Tarvos.

One night, the front door to the mansion bursts open. A disheveled, wild-eyed, and monstrous Lieutenant Sandstone returns home, having escaped from his prison cell behind enemy lines.

Wait, my husband isn’t dead?

“Who the hell are you?” he rasps.

“Your bound,” I whimper from underneath the sheets.

Oh no. How is this going to work out?

 

Quick and spicy alien romance. Nothing super special about this book but it was a fun read. Needed some world building and character development to flesh out the stories BUT this could be lacking because I started in book 10 and not 1. It was an insta love situation. The story itself was interesting and unique. If you like alien romances this probably will work for you.

Book 10 Monsters Love Curvy Girls

Amazon

Midnight with the Hexed by L. R. Friedman

4 Stars

There’s a new witch on the block.

For Oakley Brooks, Celestial Haven’s newest resident can only spell one thing: disaster.

With her magic replenished and gift reclaimed, she shifts her focus to relaunching her business and preparing for the coven’s highly anticipated Moonlit Masquerade.

But another disappearance threatens to ruin Starry Night Lane’s stellar reputation, putting pressure on the supernatural government and its Archons to unearth more answers surrounding the missing witches in the seemingly safe suburb. With the neighborhood under more scrutiny than ever, Lynx and Saros get caught in the crossfire, forcing the pair to keep their relationship with Oakley a secret.

As her past and present collide, she must decide if she’ll follow her heart’s desire or risk living with an eternity of regret.

 

We get all the answers and then some. Loved how it ended and how everything worked out between the Oakley and her men. I loved how they worked around the curse and got to their HEA. I so want some of the secondary characters HEA so I will be reading more books by this author.
