Junk Mail by Kendall Ryan Review

5 SMOOCHES!

* * * * * * * * * *

SYNOPSIS:

It all started with a sexy selfie.

Texted to the wrong number.

Oops.

Not my finest moment—but I have nothing to be ashamed of.

She thought I was no better, and I quote, than the knuckle-dragging douche-bags she was never dating again.

It was a stupid dare from a girl I’d met online, but since she’d given me a fake number, I didn’t feel bad that my interests were suddenly focused elsewhere—on the fiery and sharp-tongued, Peyton that I found myself sparring with over text for the rest of the evening.

The following day, my case of mistaken identity came back to bite me in the banana.

When I strolled into the office, I was introduced to Peyton as the new client I needed to win over. The Peyton, in case you’re not tracking.

And let’s just say she had my full attention.

Brains? Check.

Beauty? Oh yeah.

And the best part? She hated me on sight.

Dear God, do I love a challenge.

Let the games begin.

REVIEW:

I absolutely loved Kendall Ryan’s latest romantic comedy, Junk Mail—it was completely addictive, and the kind of fun, light-hearted book that keeps a smile on my face the whole way through. I’m definitely a fan of Kendall Ryan’s writing, especially in her sassy, sexy, easy-reading contemporaries and romcoms. Junk Mail was bursting with the heat, heart and humor I love in Kendall’s books, but she gave this workplace romance an interesting twist with a not-so-cute initial meeting.

Peyton and Josh have the banter thing down pat from their first interaction, and I couldn’t get enough of their witty, smart banter. But the chemistry between was palpable and that simmering attraction equated to some seriously sweet relationship build-up, and I was rooting for this couple from page one. The story was full of mischief, and I especially loved Josh’s inner musings as he tried valiantly—and not so valiantly—to keep things professional. That became a fruitless effort simply because this was a couple that was effortlessly playful, overwhelmingly passionate and so perfectly paired.

Junk Mail was just the kind of fun-to-read romance that I love from Kendall Ryan. A charming, sweet storyline about two endearing characters and their irresistibly sexy romance, I absolutely devoured this entertaining romance in one sitting. Kendall Ryan’s Junk Mail gets 5 smooches from me!

Lord Have Mercy by Lani Lynn Vale Review

5 SMOOCHES!

* * * * * * * * * *

SYNOPSIS:

Poor judgment: knowing better yet doing it anyway.

Flint Stone is a professional in every way.

He’s a police officer with the K-9 unit and works at Gun Barrel High as the school resource officer. In his spare time, he’s working his heart out to create a successful gym from the ground up.

He’s loved by every single person he ever encounters—student, faculty, and employees—Everyone but Camryn Elvis Presley.

The only thing they have in common is their mothers’ poor excuses for names.
Period. The end.

So why is it every time she crosses his path that he has the urge to mess up her perfectly curled hair? Or unbutton a few of her prim and proper buttons?

He knows he should stay away, yet like the high schoolers he’s around every day, he has no choice but to react first and think about the consequences later.

Side note—bad decisions are made, leading to lapses in judgment that threaten both of their jobs. Yet when the time comes, neither one can seem to find the wherewithal to care. Why? Because being bad feels so good.

* * * * * * * * * *

REVIEW:

Lord Have Mercy is the second book in Lani Lynn Vale’s new series, The Southern Gentleman, and I am in love with this new world she’s creating and the new characters she’s introduced readers to so far. A steamy enemies-to-lovers romance, rich with Vale’s laugh-out-loud sense of humor mingles perfectly with an interesting suspenseful arc in this story.

Camryn Elvis Presley was a bit of a departure from Vale’s typical heroine, and I adored her. A high school teacher, she was strong and didn’t hesitate to go toe-to-toe with the school’s resource police officer—her grudgingly secret crush—Flint Stone. The sparks flew between Flint and Camryn whenever they were together, and it isn’t long before their back-and-forth bickering turns into flirty banter. Flint, a good guy and as alpha as they come, moves quick to claim Camryn, who is just as adamant about claiming him.

I loved Camryn and Flint’s sweet and sexy romance, the push-and-pull of the chemistry between them and the suspenseful plot arc that kept me tapping my Kindle furiously. Five smooches from me for Lord Have Mercy by Lani Lynn Vale!

A Five-Minute Life by Emma Scott

Genre: New Adult Romance

Release Date: May 16, 2019

Cover Designer: Melissa Panio-Petersen

 

REDO 5ML COVER 6x9_BW_350 (2) copy.jpg

 

Thea Hughes has five minutes to live.

A car accident stole her parents and left her with the second-worst documented case of amnesia in the world. She now has only minutes of experiences, of consciousness, of life…before her memory is wiped clean. The once effervescent artist with a promising future is reduced to scribbling with pens and paper, living an empty, quiet life, three hundred seconds at a time.

Jim Whelan is on autopilot.

A foster kid shuffled around the system since birth, he’s lived his entire life without knowing love…and it’s taken its toll—until he learned to fight back, carry his armor, and keep his head down.

Working as an orderly in the Blue Ridge Sanitarium, deep in Virginia countryside, Jim looked up…and found Thea.

When Thea has the chance to break free of her five-minute prison with a risky, experimental surgery, it could lead them both to an epic love they never thought possible… or one that could require the ultimate sacrifice.

TheMister-Banner

 

He’s got everything. . .good looks, connections, and wealth.

But when tragedy strikes he is suddenly lost. 

 

the mister hi res 1.22.19

 

London, 2019. Life has been easy for Maxim Trevelyan. With his good looks, aristocratic connections, and money, he’s never had to work and he’s rarely slept alone. But all that changes when tragedy strikes and Maxim inherits his family’s noble title, wealth, and estates, and all the responsibility that entails. It’s a role he’s not prepared for and one that he struggles to face.

But his biggest challenge is fighting his desire for an unexpected, enigmatic young woman who’s recently arrived in England, possessing little more than a dangerous and troublesome past. Reticent, beautiful, and musically gifted, she’s an alluring mystery, and Maxim’s longing for her deepens into a passion that he’s never experienced and dares not name. Just who is Alessia Demachi? And can Maxim protect her from the malevolence that threatens her? And what will she do when she learns that he’s been hiding secrets of his own?

From the heart of London through wild, rural Cornwall to the bleak, forbidding beauty of the Balkans, The Mister is a roller-coaster ride of danger and desire that leaves the reader breathless to the very last page.

Author:  SARA NEY

Genre:  NEW ADULT

Release Date:  MAY 9, 2019

ABRAHAM DAVIS—Honest Abe to his friends—IS IN OVER HIS HEAD…

He’s a fixer and a do good-er. The all-knowing, resident “grandfather” on the wrestling team who everyone relies on to fix their problems. His teammates go to him for everything; advice, homework, or when they need a sober driver at three in the morning–whether he likes it or not.

Abe’s current mission is easy: mend his roommates broken heart by helping him find a girlfriend on the LoveU app–without getting caught in the lie…

SKYLAR GABRIEL. IS. OVER. IT.

Over her bad grades. Over her meddling older brother and his two best friends. And over dating douchebags. What she wants to know is: where have all the nice guys gone?

She longs for a handsome, sweet, and honest guy who can make her laugh. In one last ditch effort to prove that he exists—Skylar turns to LoveU.

On her worst day, Skylar has no filter (it’s a miracle she hasn’t been ditched mid-date). On her best, she’s as wholesome, and sweet, as pie. On Thursday? She matches with Abraham Davis’s roommate.

Skylar Gabriel is falling for the wrong guy—she just doesn’t realize it yet.

Why?

BECAUSE ABE DAVIS IS A LIAR.

I had it all.

If you talk to the locals, they’ll tell you Aspen Levi is the queen of high school football.
But if you ask me, my new head coach is a pain in my left nut sac.

She’s too blonde.
Too peppy.
And way too sexy for my peace of mind.

Only, one minute we’re fighting, and the next I can’t keep my hands off her. One hot kiss. One forbidden touch. I don’t do love but . . .

What I want, I take, and what I want is Aspen Levi.

EXCERPT

 

“Let’s get down to the nuts and bolts of this, shall we?”

Nuts?

Seriously, Hanson? Of all the words in the English language, you choose nuts?

But hey, on the plus side, she hasn’t seen the boys, just their leader.

Even so, I need to keep this meeting above the belt, including my own damn thoughts. I offer Peyton another apologetic smile. Time to get this deal back on track.

“Want to tell me more about your company?”

“I do. I really do.”

Her tone shifts instantly when she mentions her business, making me even more keen to hear her pitch.

I smile. A perfect, professional smile, as I cross my legs and fold my hands in my lap. I’m a motherfucking gentleman, not a junk-shot-sending caveman. “I want to hear all about it, Peyton.”

The only way to get past this mixup is to focus on business.

Not on her pretty face.

Not on those gorgeous eyes.

And definitely not on that dark hair I want to wrap around my fist and yank on it hard.

Four fucking months . . . that’s what’s wrong with my libido. It’s not operating in its normal overdrive. No, today, it’s at fucking warp speed. This is what happens when your own hand becomes your closest companion.
