BLURB

 She was enraptured by the man they called Romeo the moment that he turned those butterscotch-colored eyes her way.

What wasn’t to love about a big, burly, plaid-wearing lumberjack?

He was tall, gorgeous, and knew how to wield a chainsaw better than Leatherface. He could fell a tree in seconds, had thighs that were as thick as said trees, filled out a pair of Wranglers better than any cowboy ever, and didn’t care that she could operate heavy machinery better than him.

He was everything a girl like Mable could ask for.

The caveat? He was a convicted felon that’d just escaped from prison, faked his death, and ran from his home in Texas to the mountains of Montana.

At first, Mable didn’t know what kind of man he’d been before coming to her small, mountain town. He led Mable into a false sense of security, made her fall madly, deeply, and irrevocably in love with him, and then shocked her by sharing his darkest secret.

Now, she’s left reeling, thinking life couldn’t get more complicated.

Until she finds out her stepmother knows Romeo’s secret and plans to exploit him. To make matters worse, Romeo goes on the run to protect Mable from himself, and she realizes that she has a dark side, too. One that’ll stop at nothing, not even murder, to make sure that he can live free.

Review: House of BS & Lies - Lani Lynn Vale

House of BS & Lies by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ star

The House of BS & Lies by Lani Lynn Vale is book one in the new series: Don’t Date Him. It tells the story of ex-con Romeo and Mable. Mable is a woman who is struggling through her life, mainly due to how her family treats her (what they do to her is pretty horrific), enter Romeo an ex-con who is trying to stay under the radar. There is definitely instant attraction between the two characters with a slow burn thrown in for good measure. Romeo and Mable are great together; they have good banter and just seem to genuinely like each other and Romeo has Mable’s back which is great.

A really good start to a new series and I can’t wait to see what comes next!

Review: Twitch - Bianca Lee Ward

Twitch by Bianca Lee Ward
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Twitch is book 6 in the War Brothers series by Bianca Lee Ward and focuses on Twitch and Milly, two people who are meant to be together but life keeps throwing obstacles in their way, especially since their love is so forbidden with Milly being the little sister to a club brother. There was a little bit of drama to add to the spice and chemistry between the main characters.

If you’ve read the previous books in the series, you’ll know the characters that pop up throughout the book and it gives you some idea of what the brotherhood is like which both characters are a part of and I did enjoy the conflict that Twitch went through in regards to what would happen if the club found out verses being all in with his girl.

Overall, this was a quick, easy and enjoyable read and a really good addition to this series!

New Release: He's A Mean One - Lani Lynn Vale

 

RELEASE BLITZ

Title: He’s A Mean One

Series: Content Advisory #8

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Tropes: Holiday Romance, One Bed, Forced Proximity

Grumpy (Her)/Sunshine (Him), Snowed In

Release Date: December 9, 2025

BLURB

For a solid five years, Jasper Madden has done nothing but look the other way when it comes to Calliope Hodges. At first, she was way too young for him, barely eighteen the first time he laid eyes on her. It also didn’t help that he’d witnessed her at the lowest of lows, practically making peace with rock bottom.

But as time goes by, he realizes that Calliope is different. She’s a brave, stunning young woman that has slowly captured his heart while he was watching from the shadows.

He knows that it’ll take time for her to realize that he’s not the enemy, but instead her saving grace. So he decides to play the long game.

For years, he’s waited in the periphery for her to be ready. He stands right there, knowing that one day she’ll look up and finally see him as the man that is desperately in love with her.

But that chip on her shoulder keeps her from looking everywhere but his direction.

Luck finally leans his way when she moves in next door, and a battle of the neighbors ensues.

Where she sees war in the form of a friendly holiday decorating competition, he sees the opportunity of a lifetime.

All it takes is one bed, a freak snowstorm, and a Christmas miracle for her to realize that he’s been there all along. A silent knight in shining armor willing to take on the world just to make sure she never has to feel unworthy ever again.

Review: He's A Mean One - Lani Lynn Vale

He's A Mean One by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

He’s a Mean One by Lani Lynn Vale is book 8 in the Content Advisory series and boy is it another good read from this author. The book focuses on Jasper and Calliope, two characters that love to get under each other’s skin, but there is much more to their relationship than that! Because of Cali’s age, Jasper has always stepped back from her, thinking her too immature and young for him,  but little does he know that she has a good head on her shoulders, and she can see past what Jasper thinks are his ‘imperfections’. I also loved the shenanigans that the characters get up too, especially with Cali stealing Jasper’s takeout which is hilarious.

As with all books in this series, there’s enough drama to keep you going, some sexy scenes and some fantastic characters that keep you wanting to turn the pages. Another great read!

Review: Bite - C.J. Primer

bite: a dark modern vampire romance by C.J. Primer
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Bite by C.J. Primer is a dark, modern vampire romance. Taylor is the main female character who is having a hard time with life at the moment. Having lost her job, savings and on the verge of losing her apartment, something has to give. That’s when her friend gives her a business card to a vampire donor agency, a place where you literally are paid to feed vampires. She’s matched with a few other vampires until she is matched with sophisticated and sexy James, a King amongst vampires who is instantly attracted to Taylor and wants her for his own. 

This is definitely a dark romance with some very spicy scenes. I like that the characters like each other, even though Taylor is struggling, she is still a strong character that sticks to her principals and isn’t pushed into anything. She is instantly attracted to James but is also intrigued with him which goes both ways.  

I also enjoyed the intriguing twist that James has when it comes to Taylor’s blood and that he will stop at nothing to figure out the answer. It doesn’t hurt that he is easy on the eyes and mesmerising at the same time )especially from Taylor’s perspective).

Overall, this is a really good, dark, gothic, spicy read with a few twist and turns to keep you guessing.
