S. Jones Fumbled Beginning Book 2 of 2: The Atlanta Arrows

 

One of the perks of being one of the best wide receivers in the league was having my pick of cleat chasers looking for a good time. Unfortunately, the only one to hold my attention was the feisty brunette who wanted nothing to do with me. 

Did I still try to flirt with her—you bet I did.

Did she fall for my charms? That would be a hard no.

Instead of laughing at my jokes, she pretended I didn't exist.

Until I tried to rescue her from a bad date, did she thank me? Of course not, but she did try to kiss me (at least, that was my version of the story). The girl was trouble with a capital T.

She was also smart, gorgeous, and all wrong for me—just ask her brother.

My best friend.

Dating her would be a terrible idea, but then again, I was famous for making bad decisions.

So, when her car broke down, and I came to her rescue, I offered up a way she could pay me back—one dinner! That's all I needed to prove I wasn't just a player.

I should have put a stop to things right then and there. Because now she wasn't just under my skin, but under my sheets too.

Until I messed up—big time, and now I have to prove to her that I deserved a second chance, because I refused to accept that it was game over.

I knew the rules, I knew the stakes, and I was playing for keeps.

My Review Minus Spoilers

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Read by ME!!

I enjoyed reading about JP & Rylee and their story. This was my very first book by the Author and enjoyed her style of storytelling. I was hooked from the first to the last page. I really enjoyed the banter between JP & Rylee & their chemistry. It also had just enough spice and steam between the characters. I enjoyed as a reader going on this journey with these characters.

Elle Nicoll Resisting Mr. Rich (The Men Series - Interconnected Standalone Romances) Book 8 of 9: The Men Series - Interconnected Standalone Romances

 

I’d never swipe right for Logan Rich.

I’d rather swipe him off a tall building.

Nothing gives me the ick more than the name Logan Rich.

The billionaire dating app addict is my brother’s best friend.

He’s also a selfish man-child who single-handedly tore my life apart when I was a teenager.

So, when my boss at the magazine I work for decides I am to travel Italy with him while he works on his evolutionary new bio-fuel engine, I consider quitting on the spot.

The business world may see him as an expert in his field, but I’m not fooled.

Logan Rich is as fake as the usernames on his precious dating app.

One night on our trip I scream at him, telling him how much I hate him,

then we almost break the hotel furniture as he makes me scream out his name on top of it.

I don’t know how it happens, only that it must never happen again.

But it does…

Again and again.

Day by day my resistance to him weakens.

But I need to remember that Logan is the master of manipulating a situation to his advantage.

I won’t let him tear me apart again.

Anything that happens in Italy needs to stay in Italy.

I came for one thing; to prove to my boss I deserve a promotion.

Now I need to prove to myself that I can resist Mr. Rich.

Jennifer J Williams Forever Together (Forever Series) Book 6 of 6: Forever Series

 

Addie

What kind of romance writer has to ask her best friend to teach her about relations between a man and a woman?

Me, that’s who.

Because not only am I probably the most inexperienced author in the world, but my social circle is more of a line, and it goes straight to my best friend Chase.

I’m awkward. And quirky. But Chase has always accepted me for me, so who better than him to teach me the ins and outs — if you catch my drift — of intimacy?

He knows me better than anyone. The only thing he doesn’t know about is my hidden life as an author.

Or my unrequited feelings for him.

Chase

I’ve managed to compartmentalize Addie for the entirety of our friendship, until one too many conversations begin to revolve around playing hide the sausage — if you catch my drift.

Suddenly, I’m waking up with visions of a different kind of relationship. And then she throws the curveball of the century and asks me to be her first … well, everything.

Agreeing to teach her makes me second-guess my thoughts about Addie.

She’s the meat to my potatoes. The yin to my yang. But Addie doesn’t know how I spend my spare time.

Or about my unrequited feelings for her.

Forever Together is a small town contemporary romance. It is book six of the Forever Series, but can be read as a standalone. It features a friends-to-lovers, an inexperienced neurodiverse heroine, found family, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After. Forever Together features sexually explicit material, profanity, and some content that may be triggering. This book is intended for readers 18+.

Lore Townsend Secret Lover: A Steamy, Alpha-Billionaire, Secret Workplace Romance (Off-Limits Lovers) Part of: Off-Limits Lovers (1 books)

 

Am I really his good girl? Or just his dirty little secret?

Reina:

My friends all warned me about him.

He’s a jerk, they said. He would never be interested in dating the staff.

But the look in his eyes as he slowly takes in every inch of my body makes him seem pretty damn interested.

I need to be taken seriously at my new waitressing job so I can get promoted and pay back my looming debt—not have everyone see me as the rich boss’s plaything.

One taste of Chef Dominic’s style of punishment, though, and my perfect plans are out the window.

Keeping our affair a secret seems like the perfect plan, but pretty soon, my life is just one big lie.

I want to build bridges with my friends and neighbors. Build a life for myself here. It’s impossible if I can’t let anyone know the real me.

The last thing I want to do is walk away…

But I can’t be his secret any longer.

Dom:

I’ve only got this year’s award season to prove to the world that my restaurant is the best—and save my life’s work from being turned into a burger joint.

The last thing I need is to get involved with a young member of the seasonal staff here at the Carribean resort I co-own with my three best friends.

But somehow, a certain sassy waitress has stolen my focus—and my heart.

I made her a proposition—keep it between us until the end of the season.

It seems so simple, especially when we both have a lot on the line.

I just never imagined what keeping our secret would come to mean to her.

Now I’ve got to prove to her—and to myself—that I can be a man who isn’t afraid to stand up for what he believes in.

Even if it means choosing between my restaurant and my girl.

Secret Lover is a sizzlingly hot forbidden boss/employee, age-gap, alpha-male romance. This book is for mature readers and features scenes that explore power dynamics and steamy bedroom escapades. Join our kinky lovers on a wild ride through paradise ending with a spectacular HEA that will leave you begging for more.

But when she calls me in the middle of the night after someone tries to break into her house, I can no longer handle that distance, and I convince her to stay with me, along with her young son.

I should have known having her living under my roof would push me to the edge. Ignite the need that has simmered for so long.

The problem is, she’s forbidden. Off-limits. And I know better than crossing that line.
I can’t drag her into the dark secrets of my life.

But I can’t stay away from her either, so I do the one thing I shouldn’t—I take.
And now that I’ve had her, I’m not sure I can save her from who I am...

Kimberly Ann Canadian Harvest: A Love Canadian Style Novella Part of: Love, Canadian Style (12 books)

 

Mitch Brandt - the one person in Logan Creek I’ve actively avoided. The reason? Since he moved to town, he’s the only one I’ve pictured as the leading hero in the romance novels I love to read so much. He’s tall, handsome, and gives off the best Golden Retriever vibes.

The problem? He doesn’t know I exist.

Even in a town as small as Logan Creek, I’ve managed to keep our run-ins to a minimum. The last thing I need is to embarrass myself in front of the hottest guy in town.

Since finding me in the middle of the night in my broken down van, he’s no longer the Golden Retriever. He’s the alpha dead set on taking care of me.

We have so many things going against us. We’re the classic opposites attract. Unrequited love. Fish out of water. But lately, I wonder if maybe I’ve had it wrong. Lately, I wonder if Mitch might just be the best book boyfriend out there. But could he be my book boyfriend? Fate might have to intervene to keep this city boy focused on a small town girl like me.

Ezekiel Stone. I’m the bad boy of hockey. You know the one, sullen, salty and covered in tattoos. I’m the one your mothers warn you about. I’ll only break your heart. And she’s right. I’m the reason ‘why choose’ romances are written because I’ll never settle down.

Until that one puck got me. (See what I did there?)

My life has just been turned upside down by a sweet, honey-filled woman that I want to push away, even though everything inside me says to hold on tight.

Honey Childs. Go on. Laugh. You know you want to. I’ve heard every joke but it hasn’t changed who I am. In fact, it makes me stronger. I was raised by hippie parents that loved me more than anything. In this harsh world, love should always be first. So I make sure to show my love, my kindness and my sunshine to everyone who crosses my path.
