5 Smooches!

Synopsis

She was what he wanted … but she was also his undoing.

Through mutual understanding, Tyler’s secret affair with Gabriella Reynolds has come to an end. It was a decision that not only saved their friendship, but it was one that would change Tyler Rushing’s life forever. 

For the past couple of years, Tyler was known as being one of the UFC’s most memorable and sexy heavyweight fighters. Now he has the chance to win the title and claim the fame he so deserves. Having all the women he wanted was the highlight of his days; at least until Kacey Andrews walked through the door of his gym. He couldn’t keep his eyes off of her; there was an innocence about her that sparked his interest and he wasn’t going to give up until he had her. Little did he know that Kacey Andrews wasn’t a stranger … she was part of his world; he just didn’t know it. It was a secret she’d worked hard to keep hidden.

Kacey spent years trying to get away from the fighting world, away from the man who was hated among the MMA elite … her brother, Kyle Andrews. Unfortunately, she was brought back into it when Tyler’s relentless battle for her heart won her over, drawing her in. The only problem is that secrets never stay buried forever. In the end, Tyler will have a decision to make, and it’s one that could possibly destroy his and Kacey’s life … forever.

Review

 Ok, So a while back I read the first part of Tyler’s story in A Fighter’s Desire.   I I DID NOT read the synopsis for this book before I dove in.  HAHA!  Stupid me.  I thought this story was about Gabriella and Tyler.  I was like who in the hell is Kacey?!  A point to you LP Dover for tricking me!  I will make sure to read up next time 😉

So, as you now know, Tyler and Gabriella break things off fairly quickly into this book.  Tyler is at the top of his fighting career.  Cocky and sure of himself.

This is what it’s all about.  This is what being a winner feels like.  It was a drug and I was on the best fucking high of my life.

Tyler is typical fighter; partying and sleeping with multiple women, until Kacey walks into his dad’s gym.  He puts on the charm right away but Kacey is having none of it.

“See, I’m a real person, not just some whore who”ll ride your cock and leave when you’re bored.  I’m better than that.”

Kacey knows fighters; how they act and what they do.  She is not interested in Tyler, but he doesn’t give up easily and it seems that he loves that she is playing hard to get.  What he doesn’t know is that Kacey has a secret that could ruin everything…even his career.

Tyler and Kacey’s story was a lot of fun.  They were funny and sexy.  I loved all of the family drama and side characters.  I am really enjoying all of LP Dover’s books and she set up a few more stories in this book and I cannot wait to sink my teeth into them.

Synopsis

Have you ever thought of packing up everything you own and moving halfway across the country?

I’m talking about leaving your entire life behind—friends, family, school—with no turning back. No? Me either, but that was before a week of spring break changed my life forever. Before I did something I never thought I’d do at twenty-two. Before I fell in love with Grey.

Sometimes happily ever after isn’t always what you think it will be.(

Review

Loving Eden is a beautiful short love story between Eden and Grey.
A new college gradate Eden, at 22, embarks on a road trip for love, South Padre to be exact. She had met Grey on her Spring Break and they began a relationship. Grey Lachlan inherited the Palm Palace and its a diamond in the rough, but with the help of Eden it can become the prime vacation destination. Turmoil hits the beach front spot. And a jealous Grey can’t seem to feel threatened. This makes for a rocky spot for their relationship. Will these two be able to handle the what the tide brings in?
I enjoyed reading this short story about love and paradise. Characters were written well and the writing style was good. It is my understanding that this is part of a series. And I would have probably cared for the additional characters more, had I had the background. But all in all I enjoyed this read. 3.5 smooches for Loving Eden by T.A. Foster

Synopsis

An Angel visited me three times in my life. I would like to say that I deserved each visit, but we all know, I didn’t; in fact far from it. 
I didn’t even deserve to see the sun rise the day after I first saw Mae, an angel amongst the chaos of Satan who resided inside me. Her wide beautiful smile eclipsed everything else around me. I selfishly took that smile and I created a screaming hell with it. I took her dreams and I sculptured nightmares from them. 

The first time I was given a piece of Mae’s soul, death took it away and through the years that followed, I was only ever granted it twice again. 

The second was the day I met our daughter, the reflection of her mother. Annie was the angel formed from the sins of my own soul. Yet her light drown my dark, her smile broke my anger and her innocence massacred my past. 

The third time… well that is what you are about to witness. The third, and final piece granted was the last card played, the closing hand dealt. The definitive roll of the dice and the conclusion to my story. 
Would my angel grant me redemption against the sins I indulged, even in loving her? Was life and death the deliverance of resolution? And did my butterfly, soaring with the wings of an angel, award me forgiveness? 

I’m sure many of you will interpret this story in your own way, each of you as in Mae’s death, experiencing either a happy ever after, or an ending without hope or escape. And I have no doubt that you will all see the end to my own story in many different ways. But whichever way you go for, I, myself, know that I was granted the ending I feel I deserve. I earned. 

I am Daniel Shepherd, and this is the story of my Salvation.

Review

The Salvation of Daniel is the second book in The Blue Butterfly Series and you should definitely read it after reading The Decimation of Mae or you are going to be very very confused!  The Salvation of Daniel starts off where The Decimation of Mae ends.  Daniel is reformed somewhat and taking care of his and Mae’s sweet baby girl.

“Love you to the moon,” 

They are pretty happy together and have been seemingly left alone for the past couple of years but things are about to get pretty sticky for them.

I wasn’t sure I was still breathing.  I’d gone mad.  My head was shaking, my mouth wide open as I started at the reflection.  “Lamb.”

This is where things pretty much hit the fan and the book becomes ridiculously action packed and very very sexy!  Whoa!

As usual the writing is superb and poetic.  I really do love Dawn’s style.  It is dark and has an old school classic feel to it.  These books are definitely not for the faint of heart.  Dawn to continues to break my heart with each story but I just have to keep reading because they are amazing stories with so much grit and fire to them.  Daniel broke me this go around.  I pretty much hated him in The Decimation of Mae but I grew to love him this time.  I think Dawn must hate my happiness because while this book has a Happily Ever After, it wasn’t what I would have hoped for.  😉

“I was her decimation.  She is my salvation.” 

Just beware going in that this book is going to rock your world.  You won’t know what to expect and Dawn does a fabulous job of keeping her readers on their toes!  Loved it and hated it but mostly loved to hate it.
