Review: Mistaken Identity by Lani Lynn Vale (Content Advisory #5)


Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Give Me Books Promotions.

The Content Advisory series should come with it's own content advisory: Highly addictive motorcycle club romance series with a smacking of suspense to keep you on your toes. Lani Lynn Vale is five books in, and she shows no signs of slacking, delivering yet another highly entertaining story and main characters in Mistaken Identity. If you've been following the series from the beginning, then journeyman plumber Audric Ingram should be a familiar character. He's a member of the Truth Tellers MC, a widower, and a single father to a two-year-old little girl. His late wife, Laney, was also his best friend--a best friend he shared with Creole Williams, a flight attendant who lost her young son and her beloved mother in a matter of months. The two haven't exactly been all that friendly towards each other, not since things changed when they were seventeen, but a lot has has happened over the past twelve years. Now, long-held secrets are about to come out and may shift everything between Audric and Creole. A life together could be on the horizon for them, but it seems that there are those who'll put a stop to that lofty notion.

Talk about quite a few things being cleared up with this fifth Content Advisory novel! There was the thing with Audric and Laney, and then we learn why Creole didn't want to have much to do with Audric for years. They'd known each other since fourth grade, but then something happened when they were seventeen (nope, not spoiling it for anyone who hasn't read the book yet!), leaving Laney the lone thing that tied them together. The humor and suspense are woven into the romance, and I seriously couldn't have stopped myself from flipping one page to the next even if you'd paid me to. There's also quite a bit of angst in the story, with some heavier themes that are rather heartrending. Mistaken Identity was an altogether great read, one that I couldn't get enough, but then that's been par for the course as far as this series is concerned. I'm giving this one 4.5 stars out of five stars, and I am seriously eager for more!

Review: Him by Sarina Bowen & Elle Kennedy (Him #1)

Image
Four years' worth of meaningless sexual encounters flash through my head as I break the kiss and slide down his body again. All those guys I hooked up with in the past...they're a blur. They're faceless. Sometimes they were faceless even when I was with them. I got off, they got off, but I wasn't fully present. I always held something back from them. Not with Jamie. I can't hold back with him, and never could. Holy book hangover. It's confirmed: there's something seriously wrong with me to have waited as long as I did to read this novel, though I'm counting getting it on sale as an absolute bonus. I get it now. I seriously and absolutely get why Him , the first book in the series by the same name from the writing tandem of Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy, has received and continues to receive the stellar reviews and accolades it's gotten since its release in July of last year. I've read many an M/M romance novel and yes, I've read...

Release Blitz: Make the Play by Kaylee Ryan

Make the Play (Nashville Rampage #1) by Kaylee Ryan Release Date: June 24, 2025 About Make the Play Corie Knox Beckett is heartbreak in a helmet. He’s also my brother’s best friend, and so far out of my league, he's untouchable. But a few stolen glances turn into a welcome home that blindsides us both. The rules are clear. We just chose not to follow them. Now we’re sneaking around like we’re running a trick play, hooking up behind closed doors, and pretending our actions don’t have the power to blow up our lives. Knox is under my skin and tackling his way into my heart. Ready or not, it's time we make the play. Knox She’s the last girl I’m allowed to want—my best friend’s little sister. She’s all grown up and looking at me in invitation. The second Corie crashes into me, with her tanned, toned skin, in a barely there bikini, I know I’m in trouble. I shouldn’t look. And I sure as hell shouldn’t touch. My hands are already on her waist, one second longer, ...
