Review of Charmed Spirits by Carrie Ann Ryan

Description

Jordan Cross has returned to Holiday, Montana after eleven long years to clear out her Grandma's house, put it on the market, and figure out what she wants to do with the rest of her life. Soon, she finds herself facing the town that turned its back on her because she was different. Because being labeled a witch in a small town didn't earn her many friends...especially when it wasn't a lie. 

Matt Cooper has lived in Holiday his whole life. He's perfectly content being a bachelor alongside his four single brothers in a very small town. After all, the only woman he'd ever loved ran out on him without a goodbye. But now Jordan's back and just as bewitching as ever. Can they rekindle their romance with a town set against them? 

Warning: Contains an intelligent, sexy witch with an attitude and drop-dead gorgeous man who likes to work with his hands, holds a secret that might scare someone, and really, really, likes table tops for certain activities. Enough said

My Review

So I really enjoyed this book which is Book 1 of the Holiday,Montana Series and was lucky enough to spend time talking with Carrie Ann Ryan at the Fredrick Book Festival where i bought this book and two others. Here is my review.

Jordan and Matt have a lot of unresolved issues due to Jordan leaving town so many years ago without even a goodbye. Jordan comes back to a close minded town which made her life hell, her plan is to flip her grandma's house, sell it and leave. However things are not that easy. Throw in a bigot asshat for a town mayor, his crazy sister who doesn't understand the word no, unresolved issues, a mystery ghost, steamy table top sex, and learning to forgive and love no matter what... You get Charmed Spirits.

There so many things about this book i like, for me it was a fast read, but it made me laugh, want to cry, pissed me off, and to think there are still 4 more Cooper brothers... I like that when i read a book it makes me feel a lot of different things and this book did that. There were a couple issues... On was that the blurb says Aunt's house but it is Jordan's Grandma's house.  Typo's happen so no big thing :)

I Rate this book a 4 out of 5

ARC Review Surrender Your Love By J.C Reed

Surrender Your Love by: J.C Reed 

Description

Meeting Jett was like lightning. Dangerous. Better left untouched. And better forgotten. But lightning always strikes twice.

Brooke Stewart, a realtor in New York, doesn’t do relationships. When she’s sent to a remote estate to finalize a real estate deal, she discovers her new boss is no other than the guy she left naked in bed.

Sexy, dangerously handsome, and arrogant Jett Mayfield attracts trouble, and women, like a lightning rod. But the night he meets Brooke he gets more than he bargained for. The green-eyed millionaire playboy isn’t used to taking no for an answer, and he isn’t about to start now.

When he proposes two months of no strings sex, Brooke is intrigued and accepts his proposal. Little does she know Jett’s determined to claim the one woman he can’t have, pulling her deeper into his dangerous world.

A man who doesn't take 'no' for an answer.
A woman afraid to surrender to love.
Two lives that are about to cross...and secrets laid bare.

My Review

First I have to say this is such a sexy cover and fits the book... I have to warn you this is a cliff hanger book... Which made me go damn it i want to read more, and believe me you will want more. This book has a lot going on in it, but it is very well written, has a little bit of everything, and the sex scenes are hot.

I have to say I loved this book. Brooke is a hard working, smart, everyday woman who doesn't deal with much b.s from anyone... She meets Jett when he headhunts her for his company(not knowing she is headhunted)... He doesn't tell her who she is when they first meet and she thinks he is kind of an ass.  Even though she is attracted to him.  I agree he is an ass, late, cocky, and hotter then sin. Jett is used to getting whats and not used to be told no.  

I have to say i was totally falling for Jett along with Brooke. Their time in Italy is great and makes you think this is going so good what can go wrong they are falling for each other and the sex is awesome. Even though Jett tends to get standoffish at times, and there seems to be shady things going on. The shields around both their hearts are slowly breaking down and they head back to the States in love with each other.

I don't want to spoil anything because i love love this book so i will tell you that J.C. Reed has a talent for keeping you guessing and then bam hitting you with a gut shot... That what the end of this book was a gut shot and cliff hanger that made me go OMG, what an asshole, nooooooo I want to keep reading. 

I can not wait for the sequel to this book... J.C. Reed is a new author who has a great future in front of her because if this book is the start i can't wait to see what else she has in her bag of tricks. 

* I received an ARC of this book from the author for my honest review.

My Review

Ok so I bought this book at Book 'Em NC a few weeks ago... I chatted with Christie Silvers a little bit before i picked it up... I had seen a couple of the books in the series online for kindle but i hate starting a series in the middle... yeah i am one of those who have to start from point a...So i snagged this book up hoping it was as good as the reviews i had seen on it said it was. I am totally happy with my purchase and will be buying the rest in the series because i am hooked.

Liz Baker is the type of head strong, feisty, dirty mouthed heroine i love. She is AWESOME, even if she pisses me off sometimes with how she treats Rick...It is so hard not to spoil this book... She sometimes can't see what is in front of her with her love life... Throw in a vampire who is evil that Liz is completely attracted to even though she shouldn't be, steamy questionable sex, a snarky cat, a couple of deaths, some funny parts, life drama, and thriller action... This book has everything... I am so happy i bought it... I would totally break it down more but all i can say is read it... It is one of those books you will have no problem reading again and again.

Review Below the Belt by Skye Warren

Below the Belt By: Skye Warren

Black belt Abe Montgomery is focused on winning gold. But at nationals, Abe meets Paris, a beautiful, mysterious woman. Paris Rivera has sworn off men and martial arts. Her black belt cost her more than years of dedication and sweat. The fight of Abe’s life looms ahead, with his dreams of owning a school and his future with Paris hanging in the balance. He may dominate on the mats, but he’s fallen hard for her. When the time comes for them to part, he may not be able to let go. 

BELOW THE BELT is a 30,000 word novella of erotic romance featuring explicit sex and graphic language. Not for those under 18 years of age or those uncomfortable with the subject matter.


My Review

It all started with a bet... Classic Guy bet... who would get some that night and what the punishment would be for losing... 

Abe Montgomery is the "hero" in this story didn't want to take the bet and instead of taking the easy route with the groupies he singles out Paris Rivera... As in Paris, Texas (my favorite line) who has sworn off guys and martial arts... She is there to help her sister. 

Paris a tough cookie who decided to take a chance on Abe agrees to go off with him...she has sex with him in a closed off ball room when they are interrupted by Abe's "friends" where she finds out about the bet and runs off. 

Abe turns out to be not as big an ass as Paris thinks and they hit it off as "friends. I really don't want to ruin the story as it is a quick read... So My final thoughts...

This is a great short which reads so well and has that happy ending we all like with bits of steamy sex, great back story, and interesting characters, great ending which has you wanting more... Looking forward to reading more from Skye Warren.

I was gifted this book by the author in exchange I gave a fair review.

I rate this book 5 out of 5
