Wylde (Arizona Vengeance, Book #7) Sawyer Bennett Release Date: May 12, 2020   Synopsis: There’s a reason they call me Wylde and it’s not just because it’s my last name.   I might be one of the newest players on the Arizona Vengeance team, but I’m no stranger to the celebrity that goes along with being a professional hockey player. Whether it’s a fan seeking an autograph or a puck bunny loo king for more, I’ve grown used to the attention. I not only thrive on it; I use it to my advantage.

As smart and strong - willed as she is beautiful, Clarke Webber isn’t swayed by my witty banter or charming good looks. And when she realizes who I am and the fame that comes along with it, she likes me even less. Thankfully, I’m always up for a challenge. The more I get to know about her, t...

This is #7 in the Arizona Vengeance series.   This book can be read as a standalone novel.  To avoid spoilers, and to fully appreciate this incredibly hot series, I recommend reading in order. Aaron runs around his neighborhood until he sees the most striking woman he has ever seen.  What is a hot hockey player to do when he sees a good looking woman?  He stops to talk to her.  Then as he gets to know her, he realizes he wants more.   Clarke cannot believe she has met a man who excites her in more ways than one.  She is shocked to find that behind the excellent banter is a well read man.  Its the fame that surrounds him that makes it a hard decision.   The banter just sucked me in right from the get go.  This book has it all and I loved it.   I was excited to read about this great series!   Some of our favorites form previous stories make an appearance in this one.  The characters were a joy t...

This is book #2, in the Madrona Island series .  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  To avoid spoilers, and to understand the characters and the series better, I recommend reading this series in order. Alex AKA "Rush" is temporarily banished to an island to learn to calm down.  His team is concerned that he cannot stop his partying ways.  His drinking and playing around is catching up to him. Rosalind meets Alex for the first time when he comes into her bookstore.  As a sheltered good girl, she does not recognize the Stanley Cup wining player. They clash and hate one another almost instantly.  But there is still a serious attraction on both sides..... I enjoyed this story.  From start to finish you felt the tension and heat between these two.  I loved the banter and the fact that they truly had a lot in common once they took the time to find out.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given in...

This is book #5, in the Stand By Me series .  This can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding and to avoid spoilers, it is recommended to read this series in order. Webb loves running the bookstore.  He meets all sorts of people.  Like the newest employee.  She is very attractive, but is really trying.  When he needs help the most, they become closer. Lily offers to help when he needs it.  She has found him so hot and could not do anything about it.  The closer proximity increases the heat levels until they are unbearable.   This is a sweet, yet sexy story.  Right from the beginning these characters seem really meant to be.  I love the setting, pace, heat and heart.  There is a lot to be grateful for between these pages.  As usual, the  series  is very sexy and the characters have a ton of charm.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This copy was given in excha...
