First in the series ,First book that I've read by this author and I have to say that I enjoyed this book quite much.
First and foremost, hi-five to the authors for having such a reliable curvy heroine that could be me or one of my friends.
When a military man looses his best friend in the war it's not easy to get with your life ,but as you have promised to him that you will take care of his wife ,no matter how much you just avoid to go back and see her or ignore your feelings from years ago,life throughs you another rope to find that little something that you need in your life. After serving in the army,Logan returns home and one night he gets to dance with Katie,the woman whom he felt hard years ago in highschool and he had to step aside as his best friend got to marry her,now that he sees her,he finds her more atractive and I must say he is selfish as she has no clue of who he is and what he knows about her late husband.
Katie is still heartbreak after her husband pasted away in the army,but her best friends are trying to help her to get on with her life as she is still young and smart and beautiful and there's a lot to live for in this life ( I want some friends like them and thinking better I think I already have at laest one <3 ) She get's lost into this stranger's eyes when he asked her to dance with him in one night at the bar that her friends get her with them and from then she just doesn't know what to do with herself as remorse is eating her up and a hope that she will find a bit of love and happiness again is starting to grow in her mind and heart.
It'a a slow burn story where I would've liked to know more about the characters ,there are details that could've been told as sometime the story felt rushed or just details omitted ,quick and nice read, good dialog and writing style,the characters could have been more developed in the extra details of their past for us to understand better their feelings why they had to take some decisions at some point in their life,nevertheless a good story.

Second book in this series and what a book!!!!!!
We have met the Tornado twins in the first book as Katie's friends and also Charlie made some appearances there.
Amber and Avery are best friends,lovers and family ,but don't take them as a gay couple as they aren't.They are more than that and their heart is bigger than anything you've read before.when they meet Charlie ,sexy seal with a hot body and a sexier smirk and mouth,they know they will share him as it's nothing new there.What they don't expect is for Charlie to want more than a one night stand with them,to want to become friends and more and he gets in their everyday life.I was thinking how will this end ?Whith whom will he end up ? But them it gets more than obvious that he won't choose between them as he wants them both the same.
Hot as heck read,with a lot of steamy scemes,lol moments that made my face hurt,a bit of angst as the characters were made to be more reliable and shown real with their insecurities and overcoming their past mistakes as opening to new ideas and new life with the person that most count in their heart.

OOOO book 4 in the series and I love the reverse power trope <3
We get Danny's story ,always the newbie in his Seal team although it's been two years working with them,all of his colleagues are pulling a prank or joke on him but he only knows them,they are his family and as a seal he will always follow the rules.
Layla is the CEO and she always gives orders and demands and people has to follow although she is struggling and works hard to remain in that position as she is a female in a word dominated by mans.
An encounter that leaves Danny wishing for more than he could have dreamed about and what he finds in her is more than anything for him,he will follow everything that she says and we get to know so much of these two characters with their own insecurities and life obstacles,a bit heartbreak at times and so many funny moments ,as well as those so hot scenes and chemistry between them.
we get to see the other couples as well and how their life continues with their happily ever after <3
Fate by AJ Alexander, Andi Jaxon

Fate is the third book in the series and it's about finding love when least expected even with a big gap age between the characters
I really don't like big gap age in my reads but this book just took my to another level and I have to say it's my favorite.

Jimmy and Emma meet at a BBQ party and although he feels attracted by her she is the little sister of one of his friends and colleagues in the SEAL team.Retired and a bar owner, he gets a phone call from an unknow number and even if it's late and he doesn't know her,he gets to save her from her own mistakes and keeps her safe because he will always be the hero, the knight who saves any mistress in distress. Emma is just a young woman who tries to make a life for herself but always takes the wrong decisions and ends up in the worst situation ever in her life.While she recovers from her latest mistake,we get o see the Tornado sisters and Katie again and how they become friends.
It's a story full of angst and there are triggers for violence and abuse,but also a love story that overcomes anything and everything,including all the differences between such characters.

Again i have to start with a new to me author that i've discovered this year and what a book to start with.
I just loved it from the first chapter as our Theo-Dog Legend is a bad boy, disgraced celebrity because of a few bad decision while partying and we all know how much the paparazzi love this actions. He is out of job and almost broken and set his eyes on Hadley,one of the participants in a TV show,better said he gets a bit obssesed with her.And that's how an new ideea for a new TV show makes way to rebuild his career and to meet and work with her.

Hadley is a young woman that wants more of her life than just be an accountant and after the show that she stars in finishes and she is aproched with a new opportunity to remains in the spotline and doing what she most like-training dogs on tv,she won't let this opportunity to pass.

Of course their mutual attraction is not misted and although they have to hide their relation on the screen ,we get to read about so many sweet and wonderful moments that brings the best of each character.
Hot and hotter sex scenes ,such an entertaining dialog between them and what I love the most is that we get both points of view.

It won't be the first and last book of this author for me for sure.

4,5 stars for this new to me author but I loved this book so much that I will have to make time to read the first in the series as well because I loved some of the side characters so much and I am sure I can find their stories in previous books.
''Friend zone''- nobody wants to be on the friend zone when their feelings change from just friends to something more.Brett is hot,sweet and patient, what more would a girl want from a friend like him? He is putting up with all her craziness and hilarious moments, their banter is so gritty and entertaining, the attraction is so palpable throughout the pages that is so well done by the author and feels like you are there next to them and watch everything live.

All the secondary characters are wonderful pictured and very supportive of Brett and Liv and I think I have to make time to read the previous books as after this one I really want to know more about everyone.

The writing is great,hilarious scenes especially when they watch a baseball match ,a story that is slowly progressing from the beginning to the happily ever after very smooth and a great romcom book.
Chasing Eva by Camellia Hart

A very interesting read for a debut novel in a trilogy series from a new to me author as well.

Eva is the heir of her father design company and although she wants nothing to do with it ,she takes the responsibility to build it up more than before and to prove that she is capable to fulfil her father's dream and carry on with the projects for all of her clients. Fifteen years ago she had a kiss with a stranger but life doesn't go as one wishes and each one gets on with his life.

One of her clients is Clive's company and when everything goes down for her company ,he sticks to her giving another chance,but when he realises that she is the girl that hunted his dreams for so many years ,he knows that he has to do everything to have her and protect from the unknow source that is trying to harm her company,and in order to do that he works close with the FBI.Eva only knows him from the tabloids as he is a very hot,rich and a playboy that takes the first page every time he gets out and she wants nothing to do with him as her past mistakes come back in her mind in full and doesn't allow her to be heartbroken again,but nobody can dictate to their heart and a beautiful friendship is developing between them,along with sweet moments and hot scenes.

A good paced read with both points of view which is developing so much the characters,a bit of suspense but not a big drama at all,a love story that needs to grow more and I hope it will with the next books in this trilogy.

Loving Eva continuous exactly where it was left in Chasing Eva.
As expected ,Eva and Clive are happy with their new life and love but the danger is still around the corner. After her father was murdered ,the investigation has no end and with all the questions about her family and friends and her father's jobs and relations ,Eva is finding out more and more that she has ever believed her father involved with.
She knows something is amiss with Clive as he becomes more withdraw and is hiding from her so she is challenging him to tell her the true ,his past and his mistakes so they can overcome it all together.
We also get to know them as teens and how they grow up and become the adults that fall in love with each other.
After all this ,the mystery is not solved but their believing in them as a couple grows more and can't wait to read the final book to she how they find their happily ever after.

What would you choose: Truth or Dare?
If you are out in a very interesting club where you haven’t been before and what happens there is taboo but you feel unexpectedly attracted to the man that only ask you this Truth or Dare?
Having a high position in a big company for a woman requires more than you would be able to give from your life as you always have to be the best and maintain the respect of others towards your hard work. But this cost you your personal life and when you’re in your early thirties think more of a partner. After meeting a nice guy at first sight in a night out with her best friend, Drew is stuck in a year relation when she gave up at herself only to please Nick.He is very disrespectful and always tries to get his way in tricking Drew until one night when without her fully willing she finds herself in a sex club for a bachelorette party where a sexy as hell man approach her and ask her Truth or Dare. Of course she agreed with Truth and they have a 24h date that neither of them will forget and both will depart with a broken heart.
The only way to get his forgiveness is to chase him in his own club and prove that she wants him as much as he wants her.
A very well written story with interesting names for the characters, with both POV and all their feelings and inside turmoil, fast paced read with a love at first sight that has to go through a heartbreak to find the happily ever after for these perfect match of character of a sassy, strong and grounded queen and her feared but loving and worshipping king 👑
I want to read Luca’s book more than ever now ❤️
