She Can Kill by Melinda Leigh

Sarah and Cristan have more problems than any two people should. Sarah has recently divorced her physically abusive ex but is having to comply with his court ordered visits with their daughters. He uses the visits as a means to still try to insert his control over her life. His actions and the resultant court visits have placed Sarah's much needed job in jeopardy.

Cristan isn't who he appears. Even his name it's fake. What isn't fake is his love for his daughter and the lengths he would go to in order to keep her safe from her mother's family and their enemies. He also has real feelings for Sarah but can't give himself permission to act on them. He doesn't want to put her in danger, but what he doesn't realize is that danger has already found her.

When it becomes obvious that Sarah's ex has lost his grip on sanity and Cristan's enemies have finally caught up to him, the two have to work together to protect not only their children, but also each other. Thankfully, they both have friends willing to step up and help, because they need all the help they can get.

This was a great story with a nicely convoluted plot and a few surprise twists. I really enjoyed it.

Dangerous Games by Tess Diamond

I was completely unfamiliar with Tess Diamond when I was offered an ARC for review, but the book description sounded interesting enough for me to give it a try. I actually had already downloaded another book to read first, but once I read the first couple of paragraphs in Dangerous Games, I was intrigued enough to keep reading.

The story begins when Maggie Kincaid is recruited to help with the investigation into the kidnapping of a senator's teenage daughter. Maggie was formerly with the FBI but had wit a couple of years previously due to a negotiation that went wrong. She blamed herself, and after surviving a kidnapping as a child, she couldn't deal with her failure to bring a victim home. She never wanted to be involved in that type of situation again, but with medical issues making recovering the victim even more urgent, she wasn't able to refuse.

Despite facing ridicule from former co-workers, stonewalling by the victim's father, and the cocky interference of Jake O'Connor, Maggie doggedly pursues answers. Without giving too much away, I will just say that I enjoyed the chemistry between Jake and Maggie, especially when he was trying to get a rise out of her. The story was well written and gave just enough details to draw you into the story but also keep you guessing. It did end with a pretty decent cliffhanger, but my understanding is that book two will follow close behind this one. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for it!

Shattered by Cynthia Eden

I'm absolutely addicted to this series! This is the third book, and it sucked me in just as quickly as the first two. Super sexy Jax caught my attention in the last book. I loved the way he nicknamed Sarah Pretty Sarah. Sarah had also pulled my heartstrings from the beginning, so her and Jax together seemed like a perfect fit to me.

Jax asks the LOST team for help unraveling the details of his past, but before they can even start working on his case, a young woman with ties to Sarah's past goes missing. LOST has to divert their resources toward locating her. From the beginning, it becomes obvious that Sarah could be in danger. Jax doesn't intend to leave her unprotected for even a minute. He inserts himself into the search as a way to watch over her, but as the case progresses, a killer begins taunting them. Not only does he want Sarah, but he has plans for Jax too.

This story had so much chemistry. This couple was completely breathtaking the way their darkness complemented each other. I tend to prefer my suspense with the mystery and action spread throughout the story rather than just concentrated at the end, and this fit that formula perfectly There were also a couple of plot turns which caught me by surprise in the best way. I love this author and this series!

Hold Me Close by Rosalind James

This is the second book in the Paradise, Idaho series. Though I highly recommend reading book one ( I loved it!), I think this could easily be read as a standalone.  So far, the series has focused on two brothers from a very small town where everyone knows everyone else and neighbors still help each other. Luke is the younger brother and principle of the local high school. Kayla is a single mom with a nine year old son. She has recently escaped an abusive relationship and returned to Paradise, a town where she lived briefly as a child.
Kayla literally has nothing but is determined to take care of herself and her son by herself and never be obligated to anyone again, but Luke is a born fixer, and as soon as her sees his new neighbor, he realizes she needs help. He sets out to do as much as Kayla will let him get away with while Kayla throws up roadblocks at every turn. Despite her standoffish behavior, Luke finds himself more and more attracted to Kayla. He also seems to be growing on her and her son as well.   As trust builds and Kayla reveals bits and pieces of her past experiences, Luke realizes the situation is more dangerous than he thought. He promises to stop at nothing to keep the little family safe even if they can never be his.

I love this series and the quirky way it was written. Luke is very easy going and amusing. It would be hard not to like the story. I can't wait for more Paradise.

Dead in Her Tracks by Kendra Elliot

This is book two in the collaborative novella series, Rogue Winter.  The events in this book take place only days after book one. While book one focused on Carly, book two focuses on sister, Stevie. Stevie and Zane have been seeing each other for months. Zane wants to make things more permanent but knows Stevie is a slow mover. The couple tries to keep a professional distance at work, but with multiple murders, all they do is work. It leaves very little time for them to connect with each other. Solving their most recent case seems like the only way they will ever have any peace. With their only suspect dead, the case drags on and suspects dwindle. Unfortunately, the killer has set his sights on his next victim, and Stevie fits his pattern.

I like this collaboration between Melinda Leigh and Kendra Elliot. They definitely need to be read in order with the Rogue River series first, but following the order helps you understand the relationships and grow to love the little town of Solitude.

Tracks of Her Tears by Melinda Leigh

This is the first in a new Rogue Winter series of novellas set in Solitude. The story features Carly and Seth from the Rogue River series plus the rest of Carly's extended family. The timing of the story was a few days before Christmas. I enjoyed the holiday setting and the fact that the story wasn't overdone commercially Christmas.

At the beginning of this story, Seth is called to the scene of a murder. When he arrives, he recognizes the victim as the girlfriend of Carly's brother, Bruce. The problem is that Bruce is missing. The police have to determine whether he is the perpetrator of the crime or just another victim. In the meantime, someone has to care for the victim's toddler. Seth calls Carly to help out, but everywhere the toddler goes, trouble follows. Seth is ready to do anything to protect his family and the little girl. He promised his wife he would spend more time with family and less time on the job, but this case wasn't one that could wait, especially with Christmas so near and Bruce's safety in question. He feels torn, but in the end he has no choice. The killer is targeting his family, and he can't ignore it.

I enjoyed the Rogue River books, and this Rouge Winter series is starting out with a good suspense plot and plenty of romance.

No Good Deed by Allison Brennan

This was the twenty seventh book I've read by Allison Brennan, so I guess you could say I'm a huge fan. This particular series is absolutely my favorite. Just as a note, this is definitely not a standalone. It is book ten in the series, and each book builds on the previous one. Actually, in my opinion, you get the best reading experience by first reading the Evil trilogy and then the FBI trilogy. These two series help familiarize you with the Kincaid and Rogan families. They also take you through everything that happens to Lucy Kincaid, the events that shape who she is. Having this background information just makes the Lucy series ten times better.

This story has Lucy and Sean tracking prison escapee Nicole Rollins, a murderer they helped apprehend in the previous book. Lucy and Sean are FINALLY engaged ( yes, I've been waiting for that for a long time), but there is no time to celebrate. DEA and FBI agents are being murdered, and all hands are on deck working around the clock to recapture Rollins. Sean and Lucy are pulled in different directions, but try to connect as much as possible. Unfortunately, things only get worse when Kane, Sean's brother, disappears in Mexico. Sean knows he has to go find Kane, but hates to leave knowing Lucy is likely a target for Rollin's violence. He enlists the help of a trusted colleague to watch over Lucy and sets out for Mexico.

Lucy is working non-stop. Information is leaking from someone within the joint task force. The leak forces Lucy to question everyone she knows and works with. No one is above suspicion other than a couple of close friends. Lucy's brother, Jack, also arrives in town to help out.

Personally, this was my favorite Lucy story to date. The action and suspense were continuous, the depth of the relationship between Lucy and Sean is beautifully depicted, and Jack and Kane ( two of my favorites) are front and center for much of the story.  I truly can't wait for Kane and Siobhan to get their own story.  I'm completely addicted to the Kincaids and the Rogans.

Chance of a Lifetime by Marissa Clarke

I found this book on Net Galley and just had to request it after reading the description, despite not having read the first two books in the series (or anything else by this author). I was very excited when I was given a copy for review. It certainly worked well as a standalone, but I loved the brothers so much that I've already put the first two books in my wish list.

Chance is the youngest brother in his family. Compared to them, he is more of a free spirit though also less interested in the limelight. For practically all of his life, Chance has been in love with his friend's little sister. Unfortunately, there is nothing worse than falling in love with your friend's sister, unless of course said sister is blind and smothered by over protection.

Gen has always loved Chance too, but he left her when she needed him the most. She hasn't seen him in ten years, and she doesn't know it's him when she decides to cross off bucket list item number one and kiss a stranger. Things go up and downhill from there. Gen wants to finish her bucket list, but she needs a bit of assistance. Her best friend is unavailable, so despite her current aversion to Chance, she decides to use him. She doesn't question whether or not he can keep her physically safe, but will Chance destroy what's left of her heart in the process?

Want by Emma Rider

I love a good MMA fighter story. The awesome cover was what attracted me to the story at first. Thankfully, the story lived up to the cover. It stays off with Jade. She has made some poor decisions in the past resulting in a loser ex and some undeserved prison time. As a result, her job prospects are non-existent, and her legal and other bills are pulling up. She borrows some money from a friend and uses her education in psychology tho open her own business...a cuddling service. No, you didn't hear me wrong. I did say a cuddling service, affection for those who lack it in their daily lives. No sex allowed. Yes, I agree, it's a strange notion, but just go with it.

Ryland is a famous MMA fighter and a client of Jade's. He wants her ask to himself and offers her an exclusive contract. Jade resists at first, but quickly changes her mind after a run in with a dangerous motorcycle club leaves her in need of money and a place to hide. Ryland senses something is wrong but let's her keep her secrets...for a while. The more time the two spend together, the more Jade risks breaking her rules and falling for Ryland. She also fears how he will react when he knows all her secrets. She would give everything to protect him from the fallout of her life, and end the end, she may very well have to.

I love, love, love this story. Ryland was super sexy with his alpha tendencies, gentle touches, and MMA bedroom moves. Jade was everything Ryland needed. She was a cuddler and a talker, and Ryland was a man of action with little time to even speak compete sentences. They amused me and made me smile. The suspenseful subplots also kept things moving quickly and the excitement building. It was a great read.

Designed for Murder by Avery Flynn

I was a bit unsure whether I would be able to get into this story since it was set in the world of LARPing. I was familiar with the term, but that was about the extent of my knowledge. The only reason I even have it a try was because I've never read a book published through Entangled Ignite that I didn't like. I've got to admit, I loved this one too. Mika was a great character. She was totally into LARPing, but she want just some geek stuck in a fantasy. She had spunk and didn't back down for anyone. Carlos, on the other hand, thought he was just as tough but had let himself conform to an image of who he thought he needed to be. Mika challenged all Carlos thought he was. Working as an investigator for Maltese Security on her case (which involved stolen LARP costumes) brought him face to face with the world he used to enjoy. Working protection for Mika brought him face to face with his worst fear. He would have to step right into the middle of everything he feared in order to save everything he ever wanted...Mika.

I truly loved this story and all the great characters. I definitely need to read more about Maltese Security.

Doing for Keeps by Seleste Delaney

This book is part of a series called Agents of TRAIT. I hadn't read any of the other books in this series, but I didn't have any trouble reading this as a standalone. I quickly figured out that TRAIT was a secret agency with agents whose abilities lay outside the realm of normal. Nico has the ability to alter something in his voice and convince people to open to his suggestions. His partner, Greta, can see the patterns in everything. She is the primary finder of cases for TRAIT.  Nico has been attracted to Greta for a while. Greta is oblivious even though she thinks she may have some feelings Nico. Greta doesn't like to be touched and is extremely literal and detailed. She reads like someone who is autistic, highly intelligent but lacking people skills and subtlety.

Greta becomes upset when she begins to struggle to find patterns in recent events. She is convinced this warrants looking into and may making something big and dangerous. Unfortunately, no one is listening except Nico. He offers to help her as a way to see if he can better understand how her mind works...and also just to be closer to her. When their teamwork yields results, they lobby for permission to formally investigate. The trail takes them to the middle of the ocean right inside the Bermuda Triangle and into the middle of a huge political and scientific conspiracy. At this point, the danger increases exponentially, and though the timing may be inconvenient, so does their attraction to each other. I love how they both felt so misunderstood by their families but came to understand each other perfectly.

Overall, it was a great suspense with a very slight out of the norm, but not quite paranormal, vibe. It also has some funny moments related to Greta's creative usage of com's.

Irresistible Deceptions by Mackenzie Crowne

Nicky had been taking care of herself for a long time. She ran from her criminal husband and has been hiding herself and the son he doesn't know exists. When her father dies, Nicky takes a risk which allows her husband's unwitting henchman to find her. On the run again, Nicky takes her son and runs to the only place she feels safe. Her friends hire a security firm to protect Nicky until her fugitive ex husband can be apprehended. Rhyder (Rhy) is the man on the job, but unbeknownst to Nicky, he is also the man her ex sent to find her. Rhy realizes he was tricked and used by Nicky's ex, but he isn't sure how much of what he was told about her might actually be true. Having been hurt before, he isn't willing to trust Nicky to be who she says she is. Nicky doesn't even want to know Rhy. She thinks she and her son are safer on their own and keeps trying to ditch Rhy. Eventually the two agree to work together, and long nights alone lead to lead to getting to know each other very well, in more ways than one. As the danger escalates, so does Rhy's desire to keep Nicky and her son forever, but his deceptions may tear them apart.

I was unfamiliar with this author but decided to check out the book based on the publisher. I always have good luck with Entangled Ignite titles. This story was no different. I enjoyed the characters, especially Nicky's son, Alex, and the fast pace of the plot kept me interested and invested in the story.

Resurrection River by Lindsay Cross

This story is book two in the Men of Mercy series, and oh what men they are...whew! While this could definitely be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading book one first. You will love it, so start there. Resurrection River focuses on Ranger, the brother of the hero from book one, Hunter. The relationship between Ranger and Amy started long before this book, but somewhere along the line it got messed up. That didn't stop the two from having feelings for each other, although Amy's marriage to Ranger's best friend does keep them from acting on those feelings...at least until he dies. Ranger had to deliver the news of his friend's death, and steps up to take care of Amy and her baby. Amy wants to be with Ranger, but feels guilt. The two clash frequently over Amy's doubts, but when dangerous things begin to happen surrounding her, Ranger is determined not to ever leave her side regardless of what she wants or who else wants her.

I loved this story just as much as book one, maybe even more. Ranger was totally swoon worthy, and Amy was spunky and determined. When this couple gets hot and bothered, serious sparks fly. I love them and the other men from Ranger's team. I can't wait to see who gets the next story! I'm hoping it's Merc!

I received an early copy for review from the author.

The Bride Wore Crimson by Adrianne Lee

This story is the second in the Weddingville series. Weddingville is a picturesque little town using wedding tourism to bring the town back to life. I highly recommend reading book one before you start this one, or Weddingville and Daryl Anne's place there will likely take a minute to understand.

Daryl Anne is finally settling into her new life working the family business and spending time with Seth. Everything finally seems calm, and even her recently single friend, Meg, is getting back into the swing of things. All is well until a rash of wedding related thefts lead to murder, and Daryl Anne suspects someone close to her family might be involved. She decides the best way to protect her family is to investigate on her own, though Meg and Seth, of course, get in on the action too. I was thrilled to see Daryl Anne and Seth's relationship progress. He is so good for her. I also enjoy Daryl Anne's little inner monologues. For me, this was like a cozy with just enough spice to make things interesting.

I received an advance copy for review from the publisher through Net Galley.

Death Before Decaf by Caroline Fardig

So I started off trading this book being totally unfamiliar with the author. I received an advertisement saying it was perfect for fans of Janet Evanovich, which I am. I can say I don't find it similar to the Stephanie Plum series with the exception of the two different semi love interests. Honestly, it started off a bit slow for me, and I wasn't sure I was going to like Juliet. She grew on me quickly though, and I was soon sucked into the story and the characters. Juliet is a bit off a loose cannon. She tends to go off a bit unprepared and without much forethought at times. Her friend, Peter, is the voice of reason she tends to ignore. She has been in love with him for a very long time, but she won't risk telling him and ruining their friendship. Instead, she sits by and watches as he dates a woman who hates Juliet and then she ends up making a hookup with a sexy professor from the nearby university. Ryder looks like every woman's dream, but Juliet still finds some aspects of his behavior and background suspicious. Not surprisingly though, this does not keep her from hooking up with him. In the meantime, Juliet is trying to begin her new jib as the manner of the coffee shop owned by her friend Peter. Just as things are starting out a little rocky, they quickly become worse. As she stays late one night, Juliet discovers one of her employees murdered and left in the dumpster. The police lead her to believe she is their favored suspect. Juliet decides the best thing she can do is to investigate the murder on her own and prove that there are other viable suspects. Unfortunately, this leads Juliet into many dangerous and suspect situations. If that's not enough, more and more questions keep popping up about Ryder. Between the danger, the mixed up relationships, and the often funny situations Juliet gets her and her guys into , I really enjoyed this book, and I'm interested to see where the author takes the series in the future.

No Room for Error by Julie Moffett

I have been a fan of the series for a very long time. It is one of my very favorites because Lexi always cracks me up . Her research topics certainly are amusing , and this time, she completely outdoes herself . I was laughing out loud like crazy. I also like this book because Lexi and Slash end up taking their relationship a bit deeper and opening up so much more . I completely love Slash in this book.

 So the story starts off with Lexi taking a job doing a favor for her friends the twins. The twins have invented some new technology which Lexi believes to be world changing. However, neither of the twins is healthy enough to travel to oversee the initial manufacturing of their technology . They opt to send Lexi in their place. Finn and Basia are tapped to go along on the trip and help deliver the technology which has been ensconced in an "indestructible" case. Unfortunately, as Lexi's luck would have it, nothing is ever that easy. The private plane carrying Lexi and her friends is hijacked and then crashed in the remote jungles of Papua New Guinea. With no way to contact anyone and no technology at their fingertips , Lexi and her friends must fight to survive . I love the way Lexi develops in the story. She finally finds out how tough she actually is , even without a computer. The story was nonstop action , but even had a few of the trademark Lexi laughs. The ending was super sweet , and it made me love Slash even more than I did. I truly cannot wait to read more of this series!
