Review: Beautiful Sins by Piper Lawson (Enemies #2)


Note: An advanced reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Wildfire Marketing Solutions.

Beautiful Sins is the second book in Piper Lawson's Enemies series, and it picks up after the events of the series starter, Beautiful Enemy. These books MUST be read in order because of the continuing story line. The conclusion to the trilogy, Beautiful Ruin, is due for release in the second week of August, so if you're the type that prefers to read a series once all the books have been published to spare yourself the stress of dealing with cliffhangers and the waiting game, you've got about a month and a half still ahead of you.

Raegan Madani knew she had only one choice to make after being with Harrison King--she left. Getting as far away as she could from the one man who made her world tilt on its axis was necessary. But it seems like Fate has other plans. Rae and Harrison are back in each other's orbit. Things may have started in Ibiza, but now, they're both in Los Angeles. The pull to him is stronger than ever, but in order for them to have any sort of future, Harrison may have no option than to face down his past. Hopefully with Rae by his side.

Unsurprisingly, both Raegan and Harrison still had their stubborn streak going in this second Enemies book. Neither of them wanted to be seen as the one "giving in", but there was also no denying just how drawn they continue to be to each other. The pace of the story remained quick, and I did like seeing that there was that constant development as far as their relationship was considered. Naturally, this being a trilogy and all, Beautiful Sins ending on a cliffhanger wasn't a shocker, and now the countdown begins. Four stars.

Release Blitz: Saved by Hazel James

Saved (Battles #2) by Hazel James Release Date: June 21, 2018 About Saved Leilani Moretti Life is out to get me.  Humvee accident that took my right hand? Strike one.  Cancer three years later that stole my breasts and hair? Strike two.  An overbearing mother who seems to think I’m twelve, not twenty-seven?  Yeah, I’m out of there.  I thought moving to Oklahoma would give me a fresh start. I hoped life would finally cut me some damn slack. But between the inept people at the VA hospital and a boss who’s hell-bent on fixing me, I just want to be left alone. Haven’t I been through enough already? Clay Prescott Joining the Army and deploying to Afghanistan? Hard. Kicking an alcohol addiction and starting a business combining fitness and mental health? Harder. Worth it? Hell yes.  Battles, my gym, has been so successful that I hired a new employee—a veteran herself—to help me open a second location. And that’s when it all goes to hell. Everything

Blue Skies (Blue Skies #1) by Marie Sinclair Release Date: October 11, 2023 About Blue Skies Greg loves his job as a flight attendant. If only his love life could make him as happy, he’d be all set. Asexual and HIV-positive, Greg has had a series of untrustworthy boyfriends who saw him as a challenge or told him they could accept his sexuality and status. Until they couldn’t. Still reeling from his latest breakup, Greg’s romantic heart beats a little faster when he meets Holden at a club, even though his brain whispers caution. For Holden, relationships are something he can’t afford. He’s been in the closet his entire adult life because it could cost him his job if anyone finds out he’s gay. At forty-eight, hook-ups, one night stands, and quickies in a bathroom are as good as it gets for him. It’s all he’s looking for when he goes to Neon. Instead, he finds Greg. Drawn to each other from the start, the two experience a bit of a bumpy take-off. But then Holden ends up on Greg

Review: The Room Mate by Kendall Ryan (Roommates #1)

Image
Note: This ARC was provided by the author via InkSlinger PR in exchange for an honest review. I do believe I've found myself a new book boyfriend to drool, erm, swoon over in Cannon Roth, male main character in bestselling author Kendall Ryan's Roommates series starter, The Room Mate . This had a familiar romance trope--falling-for-your-best-friend's-sibling--and yet I didn't find it boring or tiresome in any way. This has both heart and heat as well as lighthearted humor along with a bit of heart-tugging angst and it's headlined by a couple of main characters that I was totally smitten with from the moment Paige got a pretty good idea of just how much her best friend's younger brother Cannon had grown up from the nerdy boy who followed them around like a puppy when they were kids. Bonus points for Paige being older and for the four-legged, furball named Enchilada.  When twenty-eight-year-old Paige took the call from her best friend asking if her yo
