My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Game, set, match.

Alexander King believes he will best Margo Buchanan, he makes no bones about the fact that she is only in his office as a ploy to prevent a takeover. Alexander is not holding back on what he plans to do to her, Margo isn’t going down without a fight though. Neither planned for meddlesome Yamata….

I tried to like this one but really did not like Alexander and wasn’t overly fond of Margo. Had some moments that I thought maybe, of course the cliffhanger at the end makes me want to read more. Might try again and see if it was my mood.

Beast by Sam Crescent

Beast by Sam Crescent
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

After witnessing something she should not have, Bridget is on the run. She knows of only one man she can run to, Beast. Beast is her stepbrother by marriage who left her and her family when she was young. Beast joined a biker club and the rest is history. Beast is willing to help Bridget for a price, her in his bed using her body however he sees fit. Will Bridget agree or go on the run again?

Beast is crude, rude, and likes playing games. I think the games put me off a bit as he seemed to get off on trying to hurt Bridget. Bridget falls for Beast and than midswitch Beast becomes sweet and caring. Might reread to see if different perspective.

A Job From Hell by Jayde Scott

A Job From Hell by Jayde Scott
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Amber can’t believe her brother got her a job as a housekeeper in Scotland, while the change of scenery is ideal considering her boyfriend put their relationship on hiatus, she is hardly a housekeeper. Amber meets Aidan the owner of the house and is surprised, he is young and handsome as well as a recluse. Little did Amber know that things really do go bump in the night and after her brother talks her into a life altering event, she becomes surrounded by people she doesn’t know if she can trust. Not to mention Aidan is her soul mate.

This was intriguing but there was so much it was hard to follow initially. Had a gothic feel and several story lines that look like will develop in future books. Liked the concept.

Loving My Neighbor by C.M. Steele

Loving My Neighbor by C.M. Steele
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Recluse Trent Davenport has never been infatuated with a woman before, but the first time he sees Lily Mason he is just that. He doesn’t know who she is or why she is in his town, but the moment he finds her he is keeping her safely by his side.

This was a weird one, Trent goes from being a dominant man to a weird stalker type who nicknames his girl Bunny. It just didn’t work for me this time, a little too silly.

The Bossman by Renee Rose

The Bossman by Renee Rose

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Too say he loved his role in his family would be far from the truth, for Joey La Torre the Don’s brother he does his job but there is an inkling of wanting something else. When he seeks out Sophia Palazzo to help with his troubled knee, he never expects to find a woman who captivates him body and soul.

Sophia has no interest in getting involved in the mafias dealings. It already shattered her life once when her father was killed and although she is attracted to Joey she cant go there. Joey though feels otherwise and is determined to make Sophia his, but when the outside world creeps in it is about to shatter the delicate relationship they are building.

This was a bit all over the map for me. I liked the concept but you have a lot to absorb and Sophia is treated by others for the sins of her father and mother. There is a kind of bullying attitude but then there are two other incidents that happens int he book that leave you scratching your head. I liked Joey I just think maybe if a bit longer some of the things would not have been so rushed.

Read previously under author name Becky Wilde.

Educating Casey by Jenny Penn

Educating Casey by Jenny Penn

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Although Casey would never willingly admit it she has always had a crush on her best friend Jacob. Jacob is sweet, shy, and engaged to someone else. There is also his twin brother Dylan who always gets her hackles up and is as dirty as it comes, but she secretly love it. What none of the trio know is that Jacob is now single and all three are heading to the Cattleman Club for a week of ecstasy, well Jacob and Dylan are also investigating an arson for the Davis brothers. Once Dylan figures out Casey is a willing participant and looking for a week of ecstasy he decides immediately he is the only man who can satisfy her needs. Now he has to get his brother in tow and make sure Casey has no doubt who she belongs too.

I didn’t like this one as much as the other four. I think the chemistry is there but there was not the chase that is in the other books. I was also a bit confused with Patton in it, I might have to go back and reread the first book to see how it comes full circle. The story was fun but more of a sexfest then anything.
