 When May Mayson signed up with a popular dating app, she never thought she would get catfished. After being stood up for a date, she finds out that the man she’d been talking to for weeks was lying about who he is.


After that horrible experience, she changes her number and deletes the app… only to have fate shove Aiden Bender right into her path.

The famous ex-soccer player whose photo was used to bait her on the dating app is the last person she expects to come face-to-face with in real life. Now, suddenly, he’s everywhere she is.

With his soccer career over after an injury, Aiden is sure his shot at happiness is lost. Then he meets May, a woman he can’t seem to get enough of. Now, all he has to do is convince her he’s not playing a game—while juggling his father’s construction company, blocking the flow of women his mother keeps sending his way, and avoiding getting run over, and shot at by whoever is out to get him.

There’s a game being played, and neither May nor Aiden understand the rules.

Review: Until May - Aurora Rose Reynolds

Until May Until May by Aurora Rose Reynolds
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Until May is part of the Until Him/Her series by Aurora Rose Reynolds. This book focuses on May Mayson and Aiden Bender. May is the shy one of her sisters, happy reading a book and spending time by herself. When she experiences a dose of catfishing, she knows she is through with trying to find love until she meets Aiden Bender, retired footballer and all-round nice guy, who also happens to be the guy that she thought she was talking too.

Aiden is the quintessential nice guy who has an instant attraction to May but doesn’t understand why she is shy when it comes to him. But, the more time they spend together and with May telling him what happened to her, he knows that he’s going to protect her and be the only person that May will date.

This is an insta-sweet romance, all about family, friendship and finding love. Aiden and May are wonderful together and I loved the fact that Aiden understood that May was shy, and he was okay with that. If anything, he helped her to become a little but more outgoing and confident in herself. Even with a little bit of drama, the two of them together make the perfect pair. Definitely another sweet read from Ms. Reynolds.

Review: Rookie Move - Neve Wilder & Riley Hart

Rookie Move Rookie Move by Neve Wilder
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Rookie Move is book one in the ‘Playing for Keeps’ series by Neve Wilder & Riley Hart. It is a sweet, M/M bi-awakening read and follows the story of Garrett McRae and Warner Ramsey. Garrett has had a crush on Ramsey forever, but he is his brother’s best friend and one of the best NFL Quarterbacks playing. Being in college was easy for Garrett as he was able to keep his lust for Ramsey under control,  but when he is selected to play for the same team Ramsey is on, the gloves come off and the sparks are going to fly.

Although Ramsey is bi-sexual, he has never experimented with men but is definitely tempted when it comes to Garrett and his cheeky personality. But to come out with Garrett would mean putting his football career online and being front and centre of a media storm that s sure to ensue. But Garrett is so sinful and is definitely going to tempt Ramsey any way he can!

I loved the story between Garrett and Ramsey. It was sweet, sexy, heartfelt and everything in between. I loved Garretts confidence, but I also loved his vulnerability which he only tended to show to Ramsey. The road for the two men isn’t easy, especially when they are trying to balance their professional life with there personal one, dealing with homophobes, difficult parents and their own challenges along the way.

This story was beautifully written. It was fun, sexy and sweet. I loved the relationship that Garrett had with his brother and how he was so comfortable with himself. Ramsey had a lot to go through in this story and with Garrett by his side, he definitely helped him get his happy ever after. Scenes were sexy between the two and I loved that they even had a solid friendship before they became more intimate. A really good read!

Review: Running on Diesel - Melissa Foster

Running on Diesel Running on Diesel by Melissa Foster
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Running on Diesel by Melissa Foster is a red heart read. The book looks at the sizzling relationship between Tracy Kline and Desmond “Diesel’ Black. Tracy is a woman with a past, making a new life for herself after leaving her abusive partner, she is untrusting and on her own  but is welcomed into the Whiskey and Dark Knight family like she is one of their own and is slowly building up her confidence in herself. Diesel is on Tracy’s radar, but for all the wrong reasons; arrogant, grumpy and protector. Did I also mention hot! Tracy has an insatiable attraction to the nomad biker, but he may jeopardise it all by not being open with her and sabotaging their relationship before it takes off.

This was another wonderfully written story by Melissia Foster that throws us into the deep end of long time hurts and trying to heal from our pasts. Diesel’s relationship with his mother was special and he definitely carries how he feels about her during the story, it was quite heart-breaking when he learns some truths about her which may paint her in a different light.

Tracy and Diesel’s chemistry is off the charts. They are both pig-headed at points, feisty and say it like it is, both of them being hurt in the past. But there is just something about them together which makes them come off the page. They have such a deep and emotional relationship. Does it have misunderstandings…definitely, but it is truly real. There are some hot and sexy scenes thrown in for good measure, some laughs, tears and some drama. Characters form other books pop in an make themselves known which is also wonderful.

I really love this series and can’t wait to read more. Definitely a book you want to read from beginning to end in one sitting!

Review: Crowbones - Anne Bishop

Crowbones Crowbones by Anne Bishop
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Crowbones by Anne Bishop is book eight in ‘The Others’ Series and boy is it a good one. The book focuses on Vicki DeVine, a woman who has made a new life for herself and her new business “The Jumble’ a resort in a territory controlled by the Others. Whilst hosting a gathering she tells the story about Trickster Night, not knowing that it will start a series of circumstances that will cost people their lives and throw Others against humans and leave a trail of devastation in its wake. The book stories on the folklore of Crowbones, a figure that comes at a certain time and can be classed as the Others, Bogeyman. When a prank goes horribly wrong, Crows and humans end up dying, but we find out that there is more going on and Vicki and others are bang, smack in the middle of it.

I really enjoyed reading about Vicki and her story, especially as we meet her in previous books and she has come a long way in building new relationships and becoming a new woman. I enjoyed her relationship that she has with Grimshaw, Ilya and Julian. I loved the different point of views that go on as well as the tangled stories of the Others and the humans. It is definitely beneficial to read the previous books in this series so that you know who certain characters are and what their roles are within the community.

This author definitely pulls you into a world that is uniquely different from the one we live in and keeps a hold of you right until the very end. I can’t wait to read more from this author, and she is certainly a one-click author for me. If you like your paranormal books a little it different and a little bit dark, then you need to start this series!

Review: Blindsided - Becca Steele

Blindsided Blindsided by Becca Steele
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Blindsided is a new M/M romance by Becca Steele and is book one in the LSU series. The book literally starts off with a bang as first year student Noah crashes his car into that of another student, Liam. It is dislike at first sight and even more so when both men find out that they are going to be roommates. The book looks at the attraction both men hold for each other but their relationship comes with a lot of baggage; Noah from his past and what happened in school and Liam as he comes to terms with his sexuality. They definitely have a love/hate relationship in the beginning, and both seem to love antagonising each other.

I loved the relationship that Noah and Liam had as well as the input from the rest of the roommates (you’ll notice a few older characters popping up). Liam’s realisation of his sexuality was dealt with in a sensitive manner and Ms. Steele highlighted all of the emotions and vulnerabilities people go through when ‘coming out’. I also loved the fact that Noah didn’t push Liam, even though he had his own disappointments and vulnerabilities of being just a ‘friends with benefit’ person throughout some of the book. Liam’s conversation with his mother was perfect and a wonderful addition to the story!

This was a really wonderful, college, enemies to lovers romance and kept me turning the pages to see what was going to happen. I can’t wait to read more in this series and see what happens with other characters.

Review: Hell Gate - Veronica Eden

Hell Gate Hell Gate by Veronica Eden
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟stars

Hell Gate by Veronica Eden is part of the Twisted Collections series. The book is full of twist, turns, suspense, hot, hot, hot, main characters and a touch of the paranormal. The book centres around Lily, a young woman caught up in the foster system who is going to her last home before she ages out of the system. One night she is caught up in a hazing act by the other girls in her group home and unbeknownst to her, she opens up a gate into hell, she only has to pay for that for pas by giving up her soul, oh and three sexy male demons are the ones that are going to take it from her!

Seriously, this is a page turner of a book. We get to see into Lily’s background, who she is and the powers that she holds whilst she builds a reluctant relationship with three seriously devilish demons: Valerian, Matthias and Alder. There is some serious chemistry in this book as the relationship builds between Lily and her three demons as well as some action scenes as Lily builds her power, finds out who she is and tries to stay alive with the help of her three demon men.

This was a great read! I really enjoyed the paranormal aspect of this book as it had a lot of twist and turns with a really great storyline which is definitely different from previous books from Ms. Eden, but definitely not a let down!

Title: Marrying Hope

Series: The Teager Family #3

Author: Vikki Jay

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: June 3, 2022




BLURB


A sinfully rich and wickedly hot businessman like Zach Teager has no business in my bland, rickety world. 

Yet, he barges in like a storm, leaving everyone mesmerized by his charms.


Every evening I find him at my doorstep in the pretense of a silly promise he’s made to my son. 

And let’s not talk about my boy, Ray who believes Zach is some sort of a Prince and maybe he is. 

But not of my story.


Until events lead me to accept Zach’s insane proposal of a contract marriage.

He promises me everything. Care for my mom. A better future for my son. A loving group of family and friends.

Except one thing. Love.


And that’s okay. 

I have full faith, I can never fall for someone as spontaneous and impulsive as him.

Yet, I do. Another stupid mistake to add in my long running list.

I fall for his stupid jokes, his crazy habits and most of all for him


I fall in love with my husband and that’s one thing he didn’t promise me in our marriage vows.

AUTHOR BIO


In those early morning hours when I’m alone, my imaginations run wild and I pen down the life of people living in my head. All my life, I have lived in small towns in different parts of the world. The friendships, the camaraderie that people share around me inspired me to create Cherrywood and St. Peppers, the two towns where all my stories take place. 


I write about beautiful coincidences, finding love in unexpected places and times, and fighting hard to get that happily ever after. 


I reject to read, see, write anything that does not promise a HEA. 

My characters are sexy yet shy, strong yet reserved… 


I am married to a man whom I fell in love at an age of 15, proposed him at an age of 23 and married at an age of 30. He has no clue what I write or do when he is snoring quietly in the next room.
