New Release ~ Code Name: Ghost

  Code Name: Ghost (Jameson Force Security, Book #5) Sawyer Bennett Release Date: June 30, 2020       Synopsis:   I knew the risks of this job when I signed on with Jameson Force Security. Knew my time as a marine would prepare me for the danger I would face. But no amount of training could have ever prepared me for the helplessness of watching my teammates die, the agonizing mental and physical pain of torture, or the despair of captivity. Returning home to Pittsburgh following a mission gone wrong, I am riddled with guilt and haunted by nightmares. I spend my days trying to regain the parts of myself I lost in that desert, the pieces that made me the Malik Fournier I once was. While the physical effects of my torture are fading, the emotional ones are proving much more stubborn and I find solace from the last person I should ever seek such comfort. Anna Tate lost even more than I did in that mission. Now a widow and a single mom to the daughter s...

This is book # 2 in the Always & Forever series.   This book can be read as a standalone novel.  To enjoy the series, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order. Landon made some foolish mistakes.  Not wanting to make any more of them he is trying to be a friend to the good doctor who reads with him.  In return he ends up falling for the sexy doc who seems to have the same taste in books. Robert cannot believe how soothing this patient is to be with.  Enjoying books is one thing, but just talking to him is a comfort in ways he cannot put into words.  Finding more in common with the sexy military man, he may just want more than he can have. This series continues with another sexy story that makes my heart tumble as I use every spare moment to read this one.  At the last page I was truly sad to say goodbye to these very much in love characters.  I enjoyed reading about their goals and accomplishments. Another g...

“You know, I can always tell when you’re not really angry, because you get loud and you swear a lot. When the anger’s real, you’re quiet and it’s way more scary.” ~  Dark of Night   by   Suzanne Brockmann (Troubleshooters series, Book #14)

Asher AKA "Ash" is so attracted to Mustique AKA "Mari" he can barely contain his reaction to her.  She seems to feel the same way.  So why does she turn him away?  Why not take a chance?  He wants to be there and help Mari, if he can. Mari has a lot more to lose with this current mission.  She is afraid to ask for help.  She does not want to put the few she cares about in danger.  It would help if she could resist the charm and sexy man that is Ash.  He distracts her. This was such a fast pace and action filled story.  I loved how every chapter had something the keep my interest.  Teasing me with some of my favorite characters from other series, I loved getting a glimpse of them throughout the book.  With multiple surprises and some serious badass characters, I turned each page eagerly.  I give this read a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was provided in return for an honest review only.

Revival

April has loved Chris for years, and he really doesn't see her.   When he comes into her place of work he has his own purpose.  She just wishes that he could notice her as a woman and not a nurse. Chris has wanted April for such a long time.  He cannot forgive himself for those he has hurt by his past actions.  Hard to move on, and hard to include someone in his misery.  The yearning seem pointless. This was such an amazing book!  I loved the clear cut trope of protector and innocent.  The story was laid out with a fast pace.  I was particularly excited by the mention of some of my favorites from the  Trident Security series .  Not a complete necessity to have read that series first, but certainly very helpful.  What a great idea this was.  Having trouble putting the book down, I was moved by how determined the characters were.  I give this a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This ARC copy was given to me...

Álvaro Montero AKA "D" is now supposedly dead for better purposes.  Oh he did actually die.  Only to be resurrected by someone who wants him to use his skills to get rid of the bad that is among polite society. Caiden has been burned and his days with the CIA are numbered.  Then he gets the chance to find out who it was that actually burned him.  Will he really want to know once he finds out?  And will working with his sort of ex cause more problems? This was such a fun and fast paced read.  I loved the banter and the sexy heat between the characters.  There was so much to the story, and I never felt it lag.  I eagerly gobbled up each page.  I cannot wait to read the next book in the  series .  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

“Have you talked to him since you left?” Kelly shook his head.  “Did you call me because you needed to vent, or because you want advice?”  “Advice, please.”  “Okay. Get your head out of your ass and call your boyfriend.”  Kelly snorted.”  ~~ Part & Parcel, by Abigail Roux (Sidewinders series, Book #3)

This is book #4, in the Returning Home series.   This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order. Griff finds himself attracted to the most off limits woman.  She is the little sister of his friend.  He also does not do commitment.  Best to avoid her for now.  If only she wasn't so attractive...... Becca has a thing for Griff.  If he could help her with her predicament, things would be so much better for her.  She just needs someone she trusts for a one and done.  As long as nobody starts to have feelings for the other..... This was a great story.  I loved the banter.  These characters so obviously should be together.  The pace was good, the heat was such a good build, and goes great with the  series .  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given in exchange for an honest review only.

Cover Reveal - Holding Out

    Blurb:     She’s done being a virgin. He’s willing to help her out. Only now he has a problem of his own: He can’t stop wanting more.    The answer has to be no, of course. No way Griff Ambrose is going to help Becca Drake lose her virginity. Not only is she his friend’s little sister, but Griff doesn’t do commitment—not since the day he came home from war to find his house empty and his wife gone. But he can’t get Becca’s request—or pretty much anything else about her—out of his head. What can it hurt, anyway? If it’s awkward afterwards, they can just avoid each other. Right?   Becca Drake has turned her life around, and she’s proud of how much butt she’s kicking. The shy girl with the self-esteem problem has been shown the door, and New Becca’s in the driver’s seat. There’s just one more demon she has to exorcise. Virginity is messi...

This is book #2, in the Brazen Duet series.   This book is in continuation of the first in the series, Brazen, and should be read in order.  My recommendation is to read the Brazen Duet together. Oskar & Hailey's story continues with trying to figure out who is out to get her.  Several attempts have been made on her life.  Oskar just wants to protect her from harm and keep her close. Hailey is shocked with the news they got about their time in Las Vegas.  She is struggling to tell not fall for Oskar a second time.  If he leaves her, she wants to be strong. This story is very rich and suspenseful.  I love the characters depth's and devotion to one another.  This series is incredible and hits all the highlights.  There was heat, heart, and helpless.  I was especially grateful for the compelling storyline and the character development.  I give this a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given in exc...

Gordon "Mac" MacGregor is in the business of protecting others.  It is more than just instinct.  As a former Army Ranger, he has the training and experience to complete that drive to protect.  Now, his biggest hurdle is resisting the woman he should be guarding. Tabitha "TR" Meyers is a writer, who has stumbled across something sinister.  She keeps getting messages that urge her to look further.  Is that anonymous messenger a help or a hindrance?  Should she bother to go into the dark?  Maybe with Mac with her, TR can feel safe about wherever she is. Well let me just take a breath and say - WOW!  This new series hits the road running and does not take a brake for anyone.  Let me just warn you .... this is seriously hot and sexy.  Every page filled with angst, tension, & some hotter than hot sparks.  I am literally on the edge of my seat now waiting for the next book, since I am so excited from this one I can hardly ...

Surprises

Travis “Hawk” Hawkins finds himself rescuing a damsel in distress.  Only real problem?  She takes her time in realizing she really is in distress.  Bigger problem? The heavy attraction between them that is getting hotter....... Lila is not sure which is worse.  Having family that bosses her around and does not respect her or her ambitions, or meeting a man thousands of miles from home who seems just like them that she is enormously attracted to.  Maybe it really is a bit of both.  He just keeps turning out to be the good guy. This was an incredible story right form the get go.  I was seriously stuck inside the book and had a hard time putting it down.  Each page brings more to the adventure, and even more sexy heat.  These characters are a treat to read.  I sure hope we visit them again.  What a great start to the new  Aegis Security series.   I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given...

Melody has always been in love with her brother's best friend.  When he finally comes home, she has the chance to set her plan in motion.  She is determined to have her chance with him. Adam has seen too much to believe in happily ever after.  He also has a healthy fear of what his best friend will do to him if he touches his sister.  Denying his feelings for her at this point would be foolish, however. Such a cute story with a lot of heat.  I found the couple just charming.  Reading about their story was easy.  Each page turned faster than I remembered and before I knew it - I was done.  I give this book a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This ARC copy was given by Netgalley and its publishers, in exchange for an honest review.

He misted up, too, as he kissed her. God, what a pair. “Then it is that simple,” he said, his forehead against hers. “I’m crazy in love with you, Janey. I’m in love with both of you, with all of you—however you want to define it. And if you love me, too . . . Tell me—with that on our side, what can’t we handle?”  “I’m not sure I deserve you,” she said.  “Yeah, well, get over it,” he told her. “Because I deserve you.” ~~ Hot Target by  Suzanne Brockmann (Troubleshooters #8)

Matt literally runs into Shane the week before he begins his training.  When they see one another next, it is under high pressure conditions.  He cannot help that he is attracted to his buddy.  He just has to be a big boy and control it. Shane is equally attracted to Matt.  Which will break and act on it first?  Being a SEAL is what these men want.  That means giving to their country, more than to themselves.  Shane is not sure he can choose that anymore. I was truly impressed with both the characters and the information given about the scenario.  This was a really well written story and I could not put it down!  I loved the banter, and the humor.  I especially loved how real the book felt.  Like I was with them in the moment.  I give this story a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This ARC copy was given in exchange for an honest review, by Netgalley and its publishers.
