Ride Wild (Raven Riders #3) by Laura Kaye Release Date: October 31, 2017 Avon Books About Ride Wild Brotherhood. Club. Family. They live and ride by their own rules. These are the Raven Riders...  Wild with grief over the death of his wife, Sam “Slider” Evans merely lives for his two sons. Nothing holds his interest anymore—not even riding his bike or his membership in the Raven Riders Motorcycle Club. But that all changes when he hires a new babysitter. Recently freed from a bad situation by the Ravens, Cora Campbell is determined to bury the past. When Slider offers her a nanny position, she accepts, needing the security and time to figure out what she wants from life. Cora adores his sweet boys, but never expected the red-hot attraction to their brooding, sexy father. If only he would notice her... Slider does see the beautiful, fun-loving woman he invited into his home. She makes him feel too much, and he both hates it and yearns for it. But when Cora witnes

Review: Ride Wild by Laura Kaye (Raven Riders #3)

Note: This ARC was provided by HarperCollins via Edelweiss+ in exchange for an honest review. Leaning down, Slider kissed her, a soft tug of lips on lips, his hand gentle in her hair. “I see you,” he said. “Always.” Four words. And her heart felt too big for her chest. I've missed the men of the Raven Riders motorcycle club, even though it's only been a little over six months since I read the second book in the Raven Riders series, Ride Rough . With this third full-length novel--fourth release overall--we get the story that I've been itching to read ever since I noticed the very understated chemistry between twenty-three-year-old Cora Campbell and thirty-five-year-old Sam "Slider" Evans. The single father to two sons--ten-year-old Sam and six-year-old Ben--has hired Cora to be his children's babysitter, but she certainly does more than just keep an eye on them while he's at work. She's become a strong and positive presence in their l

Release Blitz: Juniper Unraveling by Keri Lake

Juniper Unraveling by Keri Lake Release Date: October 31, 2017 About Juniper Unraveling Papa says everyone has a story that deserves to be told.  Most begin years ago, after the second bomb hit, unearthing a deadly contagion that divided the population into the pure, the infected, and the Ragers .  Many recount the moment we rose up from the ashes and started anew. Others tell of the day we built a wall to keep them out. For some, they’re nothing more than the vestiges left behind—a simple name carved into the knotty bark of a Juniper tree. My story begins with a boy.  A mute, from the other side of the wall, known only as Six, who touched my heart in ways that words never could, and gave me the courage to face my darkest truth.

Review: Juniper Unraveling by Keri Lake

Image
Note: This ARC was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. "You have to survive, Wren. You will."   "Alone."   "Sometimes, that's the only way to survive." It's been a good, long while since I last read a dystopian novel that truly captured my attention and my imagination in equal parts, to the point that I was willing to put my heart on the line and become fully invested in what the main characters were going through. I'm talking years here, and it isn't because I haven't read any new ones--just that nothing was worth raving about. Until now. If there is one book that I sincerely hope you'll make time for on your reading schedule this year, I'm begging you to make it Juniper Unraveling . Those familiar with Keri Lake's work know she's made the dark romance sub-genre her bitch. I love how unapologetic her anti-heroes are, yet you can't help but fall in love with them. No one in Lake

Review: American King by Sierra Simone (New Camelot #3)

Note: This ARC was provided by the author via Social Butterfly PR in exchange for an honest review. "It feels more like I burn people out with my love, like I use them up until they've got nothing left. No one who loves me gets a happy ending, have you noticed? Just being close to me infect their lives with tragedy." American King was, hands down, one of my most anticipated reads of 2017, and expectations for this conclusion to Sierra Simone's New Camelot series were astronomic to say the least, but feel free to pin the blame on the impeccable storytelling in the first two novels, American Queen and American Prince . I was so excited and anxious to find out how Maxen Ashley Colchester, Greer Galloway, Colchester, and Embry Moore would fare after the tumultuous end of the second book. They say that "heavy is the head that wears the crown" and never was it truer than it the case of an American president who was at the cusp of losing the two people

Book Spotlight: Life on Pause by Erin McLellan

Life on Pause by Erin McLellan Release Date: October 30, 2017 Riptide Publishing About Life on Pause Niles Longfellow is a nerd, and not the trendy type of nerd, either. He wears a historically accurate homesteader costume to work every day, has a total of one friend, and doesn’t know how to talk to guys. So when he gets a flat tire and the hottest hipster ever stops to help him, all Niles can think is that he’s wearing his stupid cowboy getup. Normally, Niles feels invisible to other men, but he’d take that invisibility any day over Rusty Adams seeing him in suede and fringe. Rusty moved to Bison Hills to help his sister raise her daughter, and nothing is more important to him than that. He’s also fresh off a breakup, and isn’t prepared for anything complicated. But then he meets Niles. Rusty sees Niles as more than a clumsy, insecure guy in a costume. He sees a man who is funny, quirky, and unexpected. Nothing about their connection is simple, though, especiall

Review: Life on Pause by Erin McLellan

Note: This ARC was provided by Riptide Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Erin McLellan's Life on Pause became one of my most anticipated reads after I read the author's debut release, Controlled Burn , a couple of months ago. That's what happens when I'm thoroughly impressed by someone's initial foray into the mad, mad, mad world of romance fiction. This second published work of hers is markedly different from her first one, and I like that sort of thing because it shows that an author isn't boxed in by a certain genre or type of romance story. Niles Longfellow and Russell Adams's story is quirky as hell and it's the kind of read that more than tickles my fancy because it isn't the usual fare that crosses either my crowded tablet or lands on my I-no-longer-have-space bookshelves. Both fun and frustrating, this was a read that had my attention from the get-go. Niles Longfellow and Russell "Rusty" Adams are
