Cover Reveal | Southern Comfort |Natasha Madison

 
 
 
Release Date: April 14
Buried secrets never stay hidden in the South.

Olivia
When you find out that your fiancé is arrested for swindling over ten million dollars from his clients, you do what any sane woman would do. You escape reality and go undercover, trading in your city-girl Louboutin's for country-pumpkin cowboy boots.

It wasn’t a forever change—it was temporary. I only had to stay here until things back home got straightened out, or so I thought.

Casey
I was riding horses before I was walking, or at least that was what they told me. I always knew I would take over the family farm. It’s in my blood.

Country boy at heart, the minute I saw her dragging her luggage up the gravel driveway I knew she was out of my league.

I shouldn’t have started anything with her, because I knew she was just passing through.

I couldn’t stop it, I fell in love with her. Even though I knew, in the end, she would leave me.

Release Blitz | Crazy Heifer (Valentine Boys, #2) | Lani Lynn Vale

 
 
 
 
The Valentine Boys #2
Release Date: February 25
 
I fell in love with his rope skills. I stayed because somehow he took hold of my heart and made it his.
Callum Valentine didn’t mean to eavesdrop. Then again? When a man is calling a woman fat right in front of your table, it’s kind of hard not to intervene. Especially when the town’s most beautiful creature ever is the one being called fat.
 
 
Desi just wants to be left alone. After an ugly divorce, she thinks she’s in the clear. Then her ex takes it upon himself to continue to make her life miserable, giving Desi no choice but to take it or leave.
 
In fact, her bags were nearly all the way packed when Callum poked his nose into the most embarrassing spectacle the town of Kilgore has ever witnessed. The moment he declares her his and off limits, everything changes—and definitely not for the better.
 
 
As if things couldn’t get worse than being called a pitiful, fat heifer in front of the hottest man she’s ever seen, Callum has to go and say that she’s his, and they have to play a game that she’s not quite sure she wants to be playing.
 
 
 
But before her eyes, things change. And suddenly the rules of the game aren’t clear. And they’re crossing boundaries neither one of them see coming.

Review | 4 stars

Desi’s ex husband was dirt bag and so was his girlfriend.  He was horrible to Desi and so was his girlfriend. I’m glad she grew a back bone and that she also had Callum by her side and that he showed her her worth.
I loved Callum and Desi together from the beginning. He treated her the way she deserved from the beginning. He was protective, loyal and an alpha. 
Overall, it was an excellent book. I love this family. I’m going to be sad when i read the last book. Callum was everything i wanted in a hero. And i also really liked Desi.

Title: Fragmented Loyalty

Author: Tonya Burrows

Genre: Contemporary Romance

 

 

About FRAGMENTED LOYALTY:

All I want is to leave my past of criminal hacking behind. Oh, and ditch the blackmailer who has been dogging my every move for the last three years.

The plan: Hack my way into being part of Class Alpha, a training program for a secretive organization that rescues hostages the government can’t or won’t go after. Save the world and make enough money to pay back my blackmailer—solves all my problems, right?

The complication: Sweet, nerdy, and unbearably sexy Eric “Harvard” Physick. Harvard is my ideal man, but he’s also my instructor. Seriously a no-go, except we can’t seem to keep our hands off each other.

My blackmailer isn’t willing to let me off the hook, though, and a series of freak accidents—deadly accidents—sends Class Alpha into a tailspin. And the more I get to know Harvard, I start to realize his past is just as troubled as mine.

Am I the cause of this chaos...or is he?

Review | 4 stars

I have always been intrigued about Harvard since he was introduced in the first HORNET book. 

The book had just enough suspense to keep me entertained, and it also had the romance. I will say i wasn’t the biggest fan of the pushing and pulling both MC’s had going on in the beginning, but it worked out to my satisfaction. 

Overall, I really liked Harvard. I’m glad i got to see more of his background and learn about his past a little. I will say that all the twist and turns were not really a 

surprise, but it didn’t take away from the book either. I like the original HORNET series a little better though.

Exclusive Excerpt:

A finger poked my ribs from the table behind me, and, face blazing, I refocused on Jean-Luc at the front of the room. I’d been so caught up in fantasizing about Harvard, I’d completely missed the last ten minutes of the lesson. Even worse, it had been obvious enough that Wolfe felt he had to intervene. Excuse me while I melt into a puddle of red-hot embarrassment. My only saving grace was that Harvard hadn’t noticed. Everyone else had, and I’d get major flak from all of the guys later, but Harvard had been too absorbed in the lesson. Yay for hyper-focused nerd boys! “Hey,” Wolfe whispered and nudged me again. He pretended to wipe drool from his mouth. “You got a little something…” I shot him the bird. “Keep it up, Wolfey. I’ll send your browser history to your mother.” “Go ahead.” He flashed a grin. “I erased everything incriminating.” Thoroughly amused, I raised a brow. “You think I can’t find erased data? Oh, you poor, naive luddite.” His grin dropped away. I returned my attention to the front of the room, but by that point, the lesson was completely lost on me. I was just biding time until class ended—but then I noticed Jean-Luc had stopped speaking. The room had gone completely silent, save for an evil villain laugh that started soft and grew in volume. I looked up at the whiteboard. The projection screen had gone black. An 8-bit video game character with blinking red eyes filled the screen. Underneath it flashed the words LET’S START THE GAME.

Exclusive Excerpt:

“It’s time to pay up,” the computerized voice said. Oh, shit. No, no, no. I thought about my savings account, where I’d been tucking away every extra cent I made. Although HORNET paid me better than any job I’d ever had, I didn’t have enough money to buy my way out of the favor yet. I wasn’t ready. I clutched the phone tighter to my ear and watched my friends pile into Remy’s SUV. I should’ve left the stupid phone behind for the night. I shouldn’t have answered. But I had. And now I had to say something. Unfortunately, my mind had gone blank. “I can’t,” I said faintly and released the breath I’d been holding. “Not yet.” “You took my money knowing I would call on you for a favor someday.” Goddammit. I glanced around to make sure nobody was in hearing distance. “I’ll pay you back. I have— I can give you half of it now. Just give me more time and—” “I don’t want your money. I want your skills. We had a deal.” Why now? I had to bite down on my tongue to keep from screaming it at them. Okay. They weren’t going to let me pay my way out of this. Maybe the favor wouldn’t be as bad as I imagined. I forced myself to breathe. “What do you need me to do?” “It’s simple,” they said. “Child’s play for a hacker of your skill level. Open a backdoor into HORNET’s network.” My heart thumped hard against my ribs. How did they know about HORNET? I hadn’t even uncovered anything about them before joining Class Alpha. “That will make them vulnerable.” “That’s the point. It’s why I put you there.” “What?” I asked on an exhale of disbelief. No, they were lying. I’d made it here by my own talent and skills. They hadn’t manipulated Tucker Quentin into hiring me. They couldn’t have. But the seed of doubt had been planted. Already I felt it taking root and flowering. Exactly what they’d wanted. I clutched the phone until the edges dug into my hand. “I won’t hurt HORNET.” “They’re not your friends, Fragment.” All the air left my lungs like my benefactor had punched me. I looked at Remy’s SUV. Music thumped from the speakers. Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Remy rolled down the window and leaned out to stab a fist into the air and scream the chorus at me. They were my friends. They were. Nobody would convince me otherwise, and I refused to hurt them. “I’ll do anything else, but I won’t hurt HORNET.” I hung up before they could say anything else, then stared down at the phone. It felt heavier than usual. Like a brick. I wanted to throw it. My heart thundered like a drum line, and I couldn’t seem to catch my breath. A car horn bleated several times, making me jolt. “C’mon, Geek Girl,” Remy called from the driver’s seat. “The night’s wasting! We have beer to drink and skirts to chase.” I slid the phone into my purse and drew a breath, then released it slowly to calm my nerves. It didn’t work. I’d waited three years for this anvil to drop, and now that it finally had, I needed to think. Plan. Run? I didn’t even know.

Joey
 
I wouldn’t say I ran away exactly—twenty-two is too old for that.
 
I’d call it self-preservation.
 
I have one objective: protect my heart from the boy next door who has no clue I’ve loved him my whole life, even with a front row seat to his revolving bedroom door.
 
My escape plan almost worked.
 
Except I left one thing behind.
 
Logan Carter hijacked my heart, and now it’s time to get it back. This time for good.
 
 
Logan
 
I wouldn’t say I’ve been lying this whole time—not about everything.
 
Not about how much I miss my best friend, and definitely not about how pissed I am that she left with hardly a goodbye.
 
She’s the last person I ever expected to ghost me, and her absence left a gaping hole in my chest.
 
When Joey Grayson steps off that bus, I know I’ll do anything to keep her home, and that means finding out the truth.
 
But I’m not sure how to tell her my truths when I’m living so many lies.

It’s been awhile since i’ve read a  Lex Martin book. I enjoyed Joey and Logan’s book. 
I love best friends to lovers trope.  
I really liked them as a couple. They were cute.
The plot twist wasn’t what i was expecting either. But, none the less it worked out.
Overall, it was a good entertaining book. I think i liked the previous two books a little better.

Sometimes people come into a person’s life and make their heart skip a beat.
 
Those people are called cops.
 
Well, one cop in particular.
A SWAT officer for the Kilgore Police Department, to be specific.
The first time Avery Flynn saw Derek Roberts, she was photographing him for the first annual Kilgore Police Department SWAT calendar.
 He was leaned back in his squad car, shirtless, and giving her a smile that was completely between them. A smile that hinted at what he wanted to do to her later.
 
When she scrounges up the courage to ask him out after the photoshoot, he laughs in her face.
 
Well, screw you, too, Mr. February.
 
 
***
 
 
Derek Roberts never really paid attention to the photographer.
 
She was a mousy girl who dressed like a twelve-year-old girl. Her tight leggings, extra baggy Star Trek t-shirt denoting her a Klingon captain, and her surprisingly clean Chucks didn’t leave much of an impression.
 
 
 
Now, the outfit that she was in weeks after he rebuffed her? Yeah, now that caught his attention.
 
 
 
Too bad that happens when he’s trying to save her from what’s sure to be death thanks to an unhinged native Texan who’s convinced she was the reason he lost his last chance at a million dollars.
 
 
 
When he tries to save her, she tells him she’d rather take a cattle prod to the forehead than go anywhere with him.

Review | 4 stars
I loved Derek and Avery! I liked that he was older and she was younger. I also loved how Derek stepped up and took care of her when she didn’t have anybody else. 
 
I hated that she seriously didn’t have any luck what so ever. I felt so sorry for the poor girl. I hated the girl she went to school with. 
 
Overall, I loved how protective Derek was. He was the perfect hero. I really liked Avery too. She just didn’t have the best of luck.

Gabby
 
My life isn’t exactly going as planned. I’m basically floating up a certain creek without a paddle. Desperately needing a new place to live, I receive an offer I can’t refuse, and you never look a gift horse in the mouth, right? Unless that particular mouth is connected to an uber sexy manwhore that makes me want to punch him in the face and then kiss him until I pass out from lack of oxygen. I must avoid him like the plague.
 
Chase
 
Gabby Connor; there is no request too small in my eyes. When I blurt out an offer I know she can’t refuse, I don’t think either one of us realize that our lives are about to change. Something else I didn’t comprehend, how hard it would be to keep my hands off of her, or my mouth, or my… you get the picture. It’s our time, no more hiding or waiting in the wings. I’m pulling out all the stops. I’m tired of being in the friend-zone. It’s time to take what I’ve always wanted.
 
But nothing is easy for us. Our road is full of twists and turns and a few surprises along the way. When push comes to shove and the cards are thrown on the table, can we navigate a new life, especially when we’re just getting started?

I was hesitant about this book. Chase was suppose to have been a man whore in the book. But, i’m glad the way things turned out. I actually really adored Chase. I loved the way him and Gabby would bicker with each other.
I liked Gabby. She was a little more out going than her older sister who was in the previous book. I liked that she spoke her mind, and would put Chase in his place when need to be.
Overall, I’m definitely loving this series. Sweet and protective heroes is Kaylee’s 
specialty.
