Review: Vex by Lola Wright

Vex by Lola Wright
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Vex is a man who never planned on having a woman by his side, he is always upfront with the women he sleeps with they have their fun for the few hours they spend together and there are no repeats. When Taja begins working at the strip joint owned by the Devils Angels MC she catches the eye of Vex, but he is quickly warned off and a bit thrown off by her lack of interest in him.

Taja knows to stay away from bikers, her father is the president of a club that moved out of town years ago and they were the scum of the earth. Taja put her life on hold in order to care for her mother and help raise her sister. When her mother passes, her father reenters her life and not for anything good. She has enough on her plate without fighting the attraction to Vex and she knows from the rumors about him he is not one for relationships. The attraction though is intense and when one moment leads to another what will happen when it becomes something they cant resist.

I was torn on this one, it is a definite tearjerker and had me thinking quite a bit ab out it after I had finished it. Vex was everything and more then I expected. I loved Taja and especially her sister, she is a hoot. I could not put this book down, #2 in the series for me with Gunner story the first in my favorite list. Excellent.

Review: Across Time by Elizabeth O’Roark

Across Time by Elizabeth O’Roark
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Amelie Besson travels back fifty years to pre-war France to warn Marie-Threse, determined to help her. Amelie finds herself having to adjust to living in a era that is completely unlike her current life. She doesn’t expect to find herself falling for Marie’s brother Henri which complicates everything knowing she needs to travel back to the future.

Cliffhanger ending but overall the story is quite unique. I liked Amelie, she is a bit of a mystery. Henri was intriguing and I was anxious to see how the chemistry between Amelie and Henri would unfold. Amazing time travel book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kruger knew if there was one woman he would want to claim it would be Stella, but he wasn’t that type of man and he had no problem using the club bunnies for his needs. Developing a friendship with Stella instead he figured that was the best they would ever have, however one night leads to more and the next morning Stella comes to terms that there will never be more between her and Kruger and flees to Florida. Fate has a wicked way of bringing people back together and secrets are revealed. Can Kruger forgive Stella and build a happily ever after with her or will his mistrust ruin everything?

Excellent read, very surprising how the story unraveled. I liked Stella and understood why she did what she had to do. Kruger is tough as nails but he also has a soft spot especially when it comes to Stella. Thoroughly entertaining.

Review: Cane’s Promise by Victoria Gale

Cane’s Promise by Victoria Gale
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Thea has been abused by her step-brother Daniel and now that she is an adult the time has come where he wants to amp up his torture. Thea flees and finds an unlikely ally in Cane, a member of the Forever Midnight MC. He is instantly hooked on Thea and vows to protect her but Daniels reach is far and wide and Thea is quickly becoming a sacrifice that his club may need to make.

This was not what I expected. There were a lot of contradictions in Thea and I was really surprised by how the story unfolded. I wanted to like this but just too many things bothered me about the characters.

The Cowboy’s Secret Bride by Cora Seton

The Cowboy’s Secret Bride by Cora Seton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Millionaire Carl Whitfield has been head over heels in love with chef Camila Torres for three years. He took her out on a date but when Camila expressed that she planned to remain in Chance Creek to live her life he knew it was a game changer. He was determined to find a place and now three years later he has a lead on a ranch to buy and is ready to make his feelings clear with Camila. The only problem is the Turner vs Cooper feud that has them sneaking around trying to finagle their relationship as well as keep the long heated feud as far away from the two of them as possible but it is impossible. Can the couple who are meant to be together stay together?

This was charming, there is a lot going on and Camila has some family issues that creep up in the story. The Turners and Coopers are nuts, hilarious but nuts. I can’t wait to see where this story goes.

Review: May Contain Wine by Lani Lynn Vale

May Contain Wine by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Louis Spurlock has been biding his time to get back in Calloway Alvarez’s good graces but the stubborn woman is still pissed at him for breaking up with her in highschool. Louis wants a second chance, but getting Calloway to even acknowledge him is harder then he thought. However, when she is sent to interview his SWAT team for an article he sees his chance. Can he convince Calloway that she is the only one for him and he will not break her heart again?

There is so much more to this story. I am very curious about Calloway’s sister which a bit of her story is revealed. There were so many potential stories coming out in this book and perhaps a new biker series, crossing fingers. I thought this was great, you get Louis and Calloway’s back story and the regret that Louis feels. A bunch of my favorite characters made appearances and it was just another fantastic addition to the series.

Review: Killian by Ryan Michele

Killian by Ryan Michele
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When Ellie’s best friend calls for help, she drops everything to go rescue her from the situation she has landed herself in. What she doesn’t realize is that Killian Graham is watching and pulls both of them out of the danger they have put themselves in. Killian is man she crushed on in highschool and has a reputation around town for being a player, dangerous, and a complete mystery. Killian drags her off to his home, even though she protests. Killian has wanted Ellie for a long time but he was not ready for her yet, now he needs to convince the woman who is driving him mad that she is the one for him while protecting her from the danger surrounding her.

This was great, reminded me a bit of Kristin Ashley and Nicola Claire books. Killian is pure alpha male and the chemistry between the two of them is electrifying. I cannot wait until the next book comes out. Excellent.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Deciding to hit up the diner she used to go to with her parents on a weekly basis, she ends up meeting Nate Bowers who is sharing her table.

Nate is not one for relationships and as the President of the Chaos Chasers MC he needs to be alert at all times. When he notices the Spiders, a rival club who are known for their seedier element watching Camryn, his instincts tell him she is in danger. Camryn doesn’t believe it until he turns out to be right and Nate is determined to keep her safe. Both were not expecting to fall for one another but they do but what happens when Camryn’s past comes back to haunt her putting everyone in danger.

This was fantastic. New to me author and I loved every moment of this book. The chemistry is intense between these two and I liked seeing how these two characters develop throughout the book. Can’t wait to read #2.

Review: The Fallon Brothers: Kinney by Esther E. Schmidt

The Fallon Brothers: Kinney by Esther E. Schmidt
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Aspen is trying to rescue one of the only people who matters to her, but in doing so she ends up gaining a favor from Kinney Fallon only to end up having to pretend in all ways that she is his old lady. What neither expects is to fall for one another and then there is always the question of loyalty. Can Aspen who has been on her own for a long time find something permanent with Kinney and will Kinney who trusts only a few trust Aspen?

This was great, I am anxious to read the next book. Really enjoyed Kinney, he is a bit of a alpha jerk but it works. Aspen is sassy and a perfect compliment to Kinney. Another great read from Esther E. Schmidt.
