The Controversial Princess by Jodi Ellen Malpas
Publication Date: May 22nd, 2018
Genre: Contemporary Romance

 

TCP Final Cover

 

Her father is The King of England.

She is The Controversial Princess.

Regarded as down to earth by the press and rebellious by The King, Princess Adeline refuses to bow to the royal expectations her title carries. She knows better than anyone that the united front of the royal family is nothing but smoke and mirrors – lies and secrets masked by power and privilege. She wants no part of it, and she will never surrender to The King’s demand to marry a man she does not love. But despite Adeline’s determination to retain her free will, she remains deeply unfulfilled, feeling caged and suffocated.

That is until she meets Josh Jameson. Drawn in by his confidence, Adeline is soon captivated by the scandalously sexy American actor. His ability to penetrate her defences overwhelms her – his touch is pure fire, and his allure overpowering. Nothing has ever made her feel so alive in a world where she’s otherwise slowly drowning. However, while Josh may be Hollywood royalty, he’s not actual royalty, and Adeline knows The King and his advisors will do everything in their power to keep them apart.

But Josh Jameson becomes the princess’s ultimate vice.

And although she bows to no one, she bows to him.

Excerpt:

Leaning over, he kisses the tip of my nose. “Now, food’s on the way. We’ll have a carpet picnic, what do ya say?”

“I’ve never had a carpet picnic before.”

“Say what?” He looks horrified. “Never?”

My shoulders jump up on a little shrug. “It’s all fine dining, posh china, and solid silver cutlery at a table that’s so shiny you can see your face in it.”

“Then tonight we fix that.” He pulls me up and walks us through to the lounge. “Get all the cushions on the floor.” He pulls a throw off the back of a chair and wafts it into the air while I pull all the cushions from the couch. I watch as Josh gets on his hands and knees and starts pulling at the corners of the blanket, straightening it out and placing cushions.

I have a permanent smile on my face, fascinated by his deep concentration. “You are doing a tremendously good job,” I say, clearing my face of my smile when his motions falter and he looks up at me. One of his eyes narrows, and in a lightning move, he snatches my wrist and yanks me down to the floor. I cry in surprise, being rolled to my back until I’m once again pinned against something by his body. Not that I’m complaining. Would never dream of it. I blow a tickling hair from my nose and grin at him.

“You’re making fun of me.” He dips and bites the end of my nose.

“Not at all.” I chuckle, squirming beneath him while he makes a meal of my face.

“Too good for a carpet picnic, are you? You want a throne?”

“Definitely not,” I blurt. “Unless your face will be my throne.”

Josh pulls back speedily on a little choke, his eyes bulging. I press my lips together as he stares at me in shock, like how could such a vulgar thing have fallen from the lips of a princess? “I think I just fell in love with you.”

It’s my turn to choke. “Blimey, you fall easily, don’t you?”

“Actually, I don’t fall at all.”

“No?”

He shakes his head. “Baby, I’ll be your throne any day of the week.”

“Honored.”

“It is me who’s honored. It’s not every day a real-life princess tells you she wants to sit on your face.”

Laughter erupts from deep within me, my eyes clenching shut, my head thrown back. My position and lack of control gives Josh the perfect opportunity to ravish my throat. And he does, growling dramatically, squirming above me…rubbing me.

Girl Of His Dreams by Janet Nissenson Review

3.5 Smooches

Synopsis

He was convinced he’d be a bachelor for life. And then he met the girl of his dreams.

Jordan Reeves has fully embraced the carefree, uncomplicated bachelor life, figuring that the poor example he’d been provided by his parents of so-called marital bliss was reason enough to remain single. He’s more than content to date one woman after another and never even consider settling down, especially since the only female who’s ever seriously caught his attention belongs to another man.

But during a vacation in Hawaii, Jordan unexpectedly meets a woman who could very easily change his mind about the joys of bachelorhood. Aubrey Larson is young, gorgeous, fun-loving, and has a wicked sense of humor to match his own. She’s also a dead ringer for the woman Jordan’s had an admitted crush on for the past few years, enough to be mistaken for her twin.

Aubrey recognizes the handsome Doctor Reeves as a player of epic proportions the first time they meet, but even her usual disdain for that type of male can’t diminish the overwhelming attraction she feels for him. But as their relationship deepens, Aubrey has no idea that becoming involved with Jordan will lead to a startling discovery about her own past, and cause her to question his true feelings for her.

Review

Jordan needs to get away for a few weeks and move past his crush he has on one of his patients, a patient who his happily married with two lovely children. So Jordan escapes, and it’s no secret he can attract quite a number of females; after all he is doctor dreamy and has his fair share of admirers. What he didn’t count on was the feisty and gorgeous Aubrey crashing into his life. All seems to be going well until Aubrey believes there’s a reason why Jordan liked her so quickly; a crush from his past but not be all that causes problems between these two.

“he unexpectedly found himself tongue-tied -he, Jordan Reeves, who’d acquired a reputation as the smoothest of smooth talkers, who was nearly as renowned for his suave pick-up lines as he was for his prowess between the sheets, and who was never at a loss for words no matter the occasion.”

This was an enjoyable romance read with a little drama thrown in. It was an easy read and perfect for those looking for a fun, flirty, sexy romance with two likeable lead characters.

“You deserve a hell of a lot more than a quick fuck in a dark closet, baby. You should be worshipped, savored, adored every single time you make love.”

Jordan was undoubtedly a player when we first meet him. He doesn’t try to hide it and despite this I still found him endearing and attractive. However he knows a good thing when he sees it and the way he fell for Aubrey so quickly was so sweet and I actually felt really sorry for him when Aubrey discovers Tessa. You could tell how much he adores her and how much he wanted it to work out. Aubrey was a great female lead; she had this naivety about her which showed her innocence but she was also a feisty and strong young woman. I may have wanted to shake her and shout at her when she doubts Jordan’s love for her but I also couldn’t blame her for it!

“And believe me, darlin’, I fully intend to take care of every single one of your needs tonight. Satisfy them better than any other man has ever done for you, or ever will again. Easy now.”

This is first and foremost a love story; we watch two characters meet and grow into a relationship together. Its sweet and sexy and definitely very steamy at times. It was enjoyable to watch these two come together and fall in love. But we also have a secondary story to do with family which was actually a pleasant surprise! I enjoyed we got this second element which added a little something extra. I can’t give too much away but it was definitely a shock and I loved how we had the viewpoint from the other characters involved. So if you are looking for a sweet, easy romance read with a little surprise thrown in then this is the book for you.

REVIEW:

The Rush Series duet is now complete, and the writing duo of Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward did the impossible–they got a devout cliffhanger-avoiding reader like me to actually enjoy the whole cliffhanger experience. Starting a book knowing it would end in one, reading that first story, waiting for it happen—the gasp of surprise at the moment when the first book ends. The wait for the second book and the almost overwhelming excitement when I finally started reading it. I honestly found myself enjoying an added level of excitement around the releases of these books that I don’t typically experience. Don’t get me wrong, if Rebel Heart had been available to me immediately upon finishing Rebel Heir, my need for instant gratification would have kicked in, and I’d have read it. But since that wasn’t an option, I let it go, and in doing so, I felt the simple pleasure of looking forward to Rebel Heart and actually enjoyed that build-up. Go figure.

I spent a lot of time over the month between the two books thinking about Rebel Heart, and I still wasn’t prepared for powerful punch of angsty emotion and soul-deep love Vi and Penelope delivered here. Readers were left hanging at the end of Rebel Heir on the cusp of what promised to be a dramatic show down. My gut twisted in anticipation of this moment, and I was not disappointed—I was devastated. Gia and Rush were a fantastic couple, and I bought into their love story early into Rebel Heir. The emotion in this book was so thick—I felt every bit of Rush’s rage and Gia’s frustration. The fall-out from this turn of events was heartbreaking, and I was as crushed by them as this couple was. Rush’s misery and indecision were difficult to experience, and Gia’s anguish left me as distraught as she was. But the love they shared was so deep and real, they couldn’t even hate each other. Oh no, that love was still very much there, but like the two of them, I wondered if they could find their way back to it.

One of the things that I loved about this book was the fact that the side characters play larger roles. Whether they were supporting Rush and Gia during this difficult time or plotting their demise, I loved seeing those character interactions playing out on the page and the richness those scenes brought in terms of the plot’s development. Let me just say this about the villains in this story: they were foul, absolutely nastiness personified, and on more than one occasion, they made my skin crawl.

Keeland and Ward gave their readers an incredible story full of aching, soul-deep love mingled with hefty doses of pain and betrayal in the Rush Series, and Rebel Heart was a fantastically executed, emotional and passionate conclusion to it. Gripping and riveting, in that cannot-put-it-down kind of way, Gia and Rush’s love story journeyed through all of my emotions, and I loved every single word of it. Five smooches from me for Rebel Heart by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward!

FAT CAT LIAR BY AHREN SANDERS

Release Date: May 21st

Genre: Contemporary Romance

 

The night I met Greer Palmer was no coincidence.

The plan was perfect.

Everything was in place. All I had to do was get her attention and the rest would take its course.

What I didn’t plan was my reaction the first time she spoke.

“Are you okay?”

Three little words…

That’s all it took for her to steal my breath and shatter every thing I’d expected.

She was supposed to be a spoiled socialite, a pampered princess, an elite heiress— anything other than the striking beauty that blew my misconceptions to pieces.

One kiss and I became obsessed.

One night and I became addicted.

One month and she became my world.

Suddenly, my plan wasn’t so perfect.

To her, I am sunset kisses, whispers of seduction, and promises of forever.

It’s all a lie…

I’m Lawson Hall.

My name and reputation speaks for itself as one of the most successful architects in the industry. Conceited, arrogant, egotistical, ruthless— I’ve earned it all.

In reality, I’ve bided my time, done my job, and waited my turn.

Now is my chance.

Greer thinks we met by accident, but she’s wrong.

Once the lies are exposed, will the truth be enough?

EXCERPT

“Don’t.” I pull her closer, brushing my lips against hers. “You want to know something, ask.”

She nods and resumes scraping lightly on my cheeks.

“Here’s another tidbit of information. I’m in no rush to introduce you to my brother. He’s a lady’s man, and he’ll have no problem trying to snatch you from right under my nose. I’m not an idiot and know a good thing when I find it.”

She giggles, the sound breaking any tension from earlier.

“You’re ridiculous.”

“I’m smart.”

“If you had a rough day, we don’t have to go out.”

“I’m tempted to keep you here like this, especially looking like you do. But I thought you wanted to meet your friends for drinks.”

“What’s wrong with the way I look?”

I make a point to sweep my eyes slowly over her face, neck, shoulders, and chest, stopping when I hit her low-cut neckline. “Your tits are about to burst out of your top.”

“They are not!” She swats me playfully.

I cock an eyebrow at her. “Pretty sure every man that sees you tonight is going to think the same thing. Do me a favor and don’t make any sudden movements.”

“Now, you’re being silly. This top doesn’t show that much cleavage.”

To make a point, I lean in and skim my lips along the edge on the fabric, stopping at the lowest point and darting my tongue out to touch her skin. She inhales sharply.

“Now, do you see my point?”

REVIEW:

I really enjoy Ahren Sanders style of writing. It’s always so richly detailed, and chock full of many emotions. She fully develops her characters in a way that enables her readers to truly get to know them. The effort and care she takes in progressing her plots and stories, in laying them out and building the anticipation, is evident on every page. These are stories that readers can easily get swept up in with characters they can relate to in situations that can envision. This takes a tremendous amount of writing talent and vision, and Ahren Sanders has these abilities in spades.

Lawson Hall was a celebrated architect, living the playboy life, and about as arrogant as they come. His focus was on the corner office, the title, the money—the prestige—that the promotion he was gunning for would bring. Proving his arrogance knows no bounds, he formulates a plan of deception to gain what he wants, but what he couldn’t have planned for was Greer Palmer. She was beautiful and brilliant, kind and thoughtful, real and genuine. She was the anti-socialite, and she had a posse of pals at her back to make sure nothing ever dimmed that light. From the moment she stepped into his world, Lawson Hall would never be the same.

Sanders created a fiery, passionate romance between Greer and Lawson, fanning the flames between them to near inferno levels despite the inevitable crash and burn once Lawson’s lies came out. I’ll be honest, even those he was a liar, his love for her was real, she was changing this man, and I felt his internal struggle, his torture and guilt, and then finally his shame. She did a fantastic job conveying all of the emotions in this story, and she built it upon a wonderful foundation of ancillary characters that I absolutely adored. I am hoping and praying that she’ll revisit the Nerd Herd at some point and give them their own stories.

I love watching a cocky guy being brought to his knees, and Fat Cat Liar was one of the best of these scenarios that I’ve read. Five smooches from me for Fat Cat Liar by Ahren Sanders.

EXCERPT:

“Would you mind zipping up the back of my dress?” She walks toward me, her flowery scent floating in my direction, spiking my yearning into overdrive.

“Uh, yeah . . . sure.”

She turns around, and looks over her shoulder. The back of her dress is completely open, the zipper undone to just above the curve of her beautifully round ass.

Shit, all that smooth, tan skin, covered by nothing but the velvety fabric of the dress. Is she wearing underwear? She’s not wearing a bra and I see no panty line.

Clearing my throat, I ask, “Are you wearing underwear, Adalyn?”

From over her shoulder, she smiles shyly. “Yes, it’s small though.”

Of course it is. Why wouldn’t it be?

Not being able to stop myself, I take a second to float my fingertips up her spine. From the initial touch, her back arches and a small gasp releases from her lips, but before I can think about stopping, she melts into my touch. Stepping closer, I place my hand on the back of her hip, my thumb pressing into her ass while the other hand explores the bare expanse of her back. Her head falls to my shoulder. Her lips part, and when I snake to the front of her dress, her breath hitches.

Eyes closed, I take in ragged breaths, my fingers inching closer and closer to her front, my cock painfully hard.

It’s been so goddamn long—and being with Adalyn has only spurred on my need—but I want to make sure we’re in a good place before we commit to anything. I want to make sure she’s ready emotionally because the minute I bury myself deep inside her, I know there will be no turning back. She will be mine forever.

But maybe for now, I can just have a little touch . . .

My cock pressed against her butt, she expertly grinds her backside into me, her hands moving to my neck, pulling my head down to hers. I kiss the side of her neck, using the hand that’s gripping her hips to guide her with her grinding in just the right place.

Fuck, that feels good.

I grunt, the sound vibrating over her sleek neck. My hand on her stomach, she arches wanting more of my touch, silently asking me to move north.

And I fucking comply. Inch by slow inch, I guide my hand to just below her breasts. When I halt my pursuit, a displeased groan escapes her.

“Hayden, please.”

I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to find the willpower. Her fingernails dig into my scalp, spurring me on as she turns her head and finds my lips.

She kisses me.

Hot.

Wet.

Needy.

Her lips gliding across mine, her tongue diving into my mouth, her moans are vocal and sexy. Her delicious ass, pressing, grinding, undulating against my rock-hard cock makes me want to do so much more, makes me want to taste so much more.

Moving my hand higher, my fingertips graze the bottom of her breast. Soft. Round. Smooth. I caress her right below her nipple, never touching, just teasing . . . tempting.

Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.
Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!

One Baby Daddy by Meghan Quinn Review

4.5 SMOOCHES!

SYNOPSIS:

“What are you doing now that your team is out of the running for the Stanley Cup?”

Forget.

I need to forget. I need an escape.

Only one person isn’t falling for my reputation as the NHL’s Golden Boy; she captured my attention the minute she called me out for snooping through my best friend’s house. She didn’t want to hear my reason–she only wanted to playfully give me a hard time.

Adalyn is bold, sassy–and the perfect escape.

She’s everywhere. In town and in my dreams, and suddenly I need to spend every waking moment with her.

And I do, making this summer the best off-season I’ve ever had.

But in the midst of getting lost in Adalyn, what I don’t expect is to get her pregnant.

And what I definitely don’t expect is having to fight for her affection.

 

REVIEW:

Meghan Quinn has done it again! She is a go-to for me when I need a romantic comedy with her signature one-two punch of humor and emotion. I’ve love this whole series, and I’m sorry to see it come to an end. I have enjoyed these characters so much, and the entire premise of the series was fresh, fun, sexy and thoroughly entertaining.

One Baby Daddy, while technically a standalone, is the third book in the Dating by Numbers series, and follows the story of the third bachelor, Hayden Holmes or #TeamJock, from the first book in the series, Three Blind Dates. I loved Hayden so much. It goes without saying that he was totally hot, but he was also a really great guy.  A total sweetheart, Hayden was gentlemanly, romantic, kind and thoughtful. An NHL rookie, he’s in Binghamton, NY, his childhood hometown, to decompress after a difficult season-ending loss. It’s there that he meets Adalyn, a nurse and friend of his childhood best friend, Racer.

Adalyn is a new nurse, having just graduated from college, and she’s working at her first nursing job, grueling schedule and all, in the local hospital. The youngest of 8, Adalyn’s older siblings, including a sister and six brothers, did more than just prevent her from dating, they effectively sheltered her. She has no experience with romantic relationships—she’s never had one.  She is totally unprepared for the instant spark she feels when she meets Hayden, and more than that, she’s a little leery of it. Their chemistry was off the charts, and while this was definitely a slow burning romance, their attraction smoldered and simmered and built the entire time. An eruption of passion ends in an unplanned pregnancy, and before they can even deal with that, some surprising news upends their entire relationship.

Quinn really outdid herself creating this hero—I think he may be my favorite one of hers. One Baby Daddy was a page turner filled with Quinn’s quirky sense of humor and her uncanny ability to build deep emotion where the reader least expects it. I devoured this story, and I’ll be honest—there’s a part of me hoping and praying that she’ll eventually revisit these hockey players in their own series. One Baby Daddy by Meghan Quinn gets 4.5 smooches from me!
