Summary:

I was only supposed to be a distraction…

When I get the call that a tenant is trapped in the building’s decrepit elevator, I climb down the shaft, drop in through the ceiling…and come face to face with Bekka Zoler, the sexy little redhead who’s starred in more than one of my fantasies.

And she’s pissed.

Turns out her boyfriend failed to mention he had a fiancée, and now she’s feeling all sorts of vulnerable…and claustrophobic. I have to do something to distract her while we wait for the repairman to get her out of this metal box.

So I kiss her.

It’s either the best or worst idea I’ve ever had, because next thing I know, I have her pinned to the wall and I’m doing wicked things to her body.

Bekka’s not even remotely ready for a relationship, and I can’t blame her. Problem is, the chemistry is insane between us, and I know she feels it, too.

It’s time to convince the gorgeous spitfire that I’m the man for her, and this thing between us will last longer than one night
My Thoughts:
Omg this book is steamy just like the first one in the series. We get to meet Bekka in the first book and she’s funny out-going girl.

When I read Stiff Discipline I knew I wanted to see Bekka’s story because she seemed like a very interesting character.

Now in the beginning of this book we find out that the guy that Bekka was dating is actually engaged to someone else. After going home an being pissed off at her now ex she gets stuck in the elevator. She calls the super to get someone to fix it and he calls his son Adam. When he arrives at the elevator she is yelling and screaming at her ex because she is just so frustrated. With some of the things that she was saying I loved. I knew then we needed to be friends.

Adam arrives and literally jumps down from the top of the elevator, to save her and keep her company until the repair man can fix it.

Things lead to one another and Adam gives Bekka a mind-blowing orgasm. I mean who doesn’t want to be stuck in an elevator for an hour an have that happen?

That is just were the book gets juicy. So, I’m not going to give away any more of the details because this is defiantly one that you want to read.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review

Summary:

Two sets of gorgeous twins, a weekend alone together in a remote, picturesque, rural cabin with plenty of alcohol…what could possibly go wrong?

Figuring out the blurred lines and tangled mess of relationships grown out of a deep, lifelong friendship that is now somehow exploding with sexual chemistry…along with a very real subtext of something MORE? A four-way, multi-directional attraction between you and your twin and the other two twins who’ve been your best friends your whole life and are now suddenly sexy as hell and VERY into you, and your twin?

Can it be double the pleasure and double the fun, or is it just double the pain and double the heartache?

My Thoughts:
Tate and her identical twin sister Aerie have been Super models since they were sixteen it was there mother’s dream not there’s. Now with them being in collage they had an incident with one of the photographers and they quit. Now their life is completely different they don’t know what to do with there lives. They call up their old friends Cannan and Corin they also happen to be identical twins. To see what they are up to. There rock stars making music back home they live in Alaska. While talking to the guys the girls decided they were going to go back home to Alaska and visit them and their Grandparents at there B&B. While there they hang out with the boys and things start to get heated between then and their Story begins. I loved seeing Tate and Corin’s side of the story. I can’t wait to see Aerie and Cannan’s side.
The ending though!!! Such a cliff hanger! I can’t wait for the next book to see where the story goes.

I was given this book for an honest review.

Summary:

The dead speak to Peyton. All her adult life, she’s used alcohol to drown out their spectral voices, but enough is enough! Peyton decides to turn her life around and stop drinking with the help of her best friend, Olivia. But without alcohol…the voices are back and they’re louder and more demanding than ever. But what do they want from her? Enlisting the help of local psychic, Sylvia, Peyton discovers that her weird ability…is actually a gift.

Just as she begins to settle in with the idea of accepting her ability, Peyton is thrust into a world of demons. The horror is paralyzing, and it soon becomes clear that it’s not just the voices of the dead that are going to haunt her. Peyton realizes that there is only one way to deal with her fears: facing them head on.

My Thoughts:
This is the first book in the Soul seekers series and it’s amazing. Don’t let the 125 pages fool you. There’s a lot of action and suspense. Payton is an alcoholic who sees spirits and she drinks to cope with that. One day her friend Olivia talks to her because she’s afraid that she will lose her best friend. Payton starts to go to AA meetings and becomes one month sober. This book had its moments where I thought it was going to be a book that was just going to be okie. I was completely shocked I was wrong. Near the end this book had me on the edge of my seat. I can’t wait to read the next one an see what happens to Payton

Summary:

Dad Bod Contracting—for ALL your domestic contracting needs. Have a leaky faucet or clogged disposal? Need a new patio with intricate brickpaving designs? Want your garage transformed into a yoga studio? Dad Bod Contracting has you COVERED. Our clean, well-mannered, and friendly professionals pride themselves on attention to detail. Every job comes with a 100% customer SATISFACTION guarantee. No job is too small. Hand us your “honey-do” list and we’ll get it done, and we’ll look good doing it! A good job well done is one phone call away, so call Dad Bod Contracting today!

It started with a window that was jammed shut. Pretty simple, right? All I wanted was to open the windows while I tidied the house. I’d been after my no-good husband to do it for months, but he never did. And then he shacked up with his secretary, leaving me with a pile of bills, husband-free for the first time in ten years, and with a house that was falling apart.

The ad popped up on the side of my social media feed—a local contracting agency willing to do pretty much anything. Since I don’t really know a screwdriver from a ratchet, I gave them a call.

And let me tell you, the ad was NOT lying. Jesse O’Neill can do it ALL…and looks amazing doing it.

He fixed my window, so I called him back to fix the sagging, splintery front steps. Which led to him fixing my kitchen sink. And then he recarpeted my stairs. And then fixed the squeak in my bed.

He was supposed to fix my house, not my rusty, sputtering libido. And certainly not my broken heart.

My Thoughts:
Oh my gosh. I don’t even know where to begin. Jasinda’s writing keeps on getting more amazing with all the books that’s she’s written. Even though this is the first in the series I know it’s going to be an amazing one. After reading this I would love to have a Dad Bod Contracting where I live because HOT DAMN!

Inmogen is newly divorced, after her husband cheated on her, all she has left is a house that needs a lot of work.

She calls Dad Bod Contracting and she meets Jesse ( where can I find a man like him? ) because she needed a window fixed in her kitchen. Inmogen meeting Jesse I think was perfect, it was just what she needed after everything that happened.

They have an instant connection and it’s a steamy one at that. I loved how they came together.

This book was all around amazing. I can’t wait to read the next one.

Summary:

Irresistible attraction. Unimaginable danger.

I knew from the moment Noah Williamson walked into the diner that he was haunted—deeply haunted—but I couldn’t resist the lure of him. He was gorgeous and fascinating and mysterious, and like a delicate moth to a brilliant blue flame, I was drawn to him. Drawn to his fire.

But if I’d known about his job, about what happened to his wife, I’d have run the other way. Before I got caught up in the red-hot blaze of his life. Before everything in my world got burned to the ground.

It’s too late to run now. I hesitated and that was it. I fell. I fell for him before I knew there was danger in loving him.

Noah once told me that this is the way we burn—together or not at all. At the time, I didn’t know what that meant.

My Thoughts:
This is also the first book that I have read by Michelle and it’s amazing. I haven’t read many suspense books but this one right here is something amazing. It was completely unexpected. Just when I thought I had an idea to what was coming I was tossed another curve ball. This is definitely a page turner. I was so engrossed with this story that I read it in one sitting. I just couldn’t get enough.

This story is told as a duel POV.

Noah works for the FBI he has a horrific past. He lost his wife and daughter in a span of a few months. He goes to the same diner every day and one day he noticed Poppy who brought some light into his life after so much tragedy.

Poppy works at a diner where she sees Noah every day at 7. He orders the same thing every time a plate of fries with a glass of tap water no lemon. The other girls that Poppy work with thing he’s a gorgeous man like he’s Cat nip and it makes all the woman crazy. There are many different sides to Poppy and that made the story for me truly interesting.

I don’t want to say to much much because I don’t want to give away any of the juicy details that this book has.

One of my favourite quotes:
When we jump, we risk falling. but we also risk flying. – Poppy
