Out in the Cold: Blue Collar Hearts prequel: Kiki Clark

Image
07/179 rereads for reviewing. I'm enjoying my Kiki Clark adventure in rereading, girl. I love you. You were one of my first love authors when I jumped back into reading! *did you know?* Out in the Cold is the prequel for the Blue Collar Hearts series. It's a novella, and IT IS steamy!  • plus size mc • lingerie • blue collar man/accountant • r!mm!ng • size difference • grumpyish/sunshine 🥵🥵🥵 the chemistry is through the roof between Beau and Coop. We love a man who appreciates a thicc partner! Coop can GET IT. Since this is a novella, it's a little insta-lovey. But it also just goes with the story. Beau is prepared to reach out and grab his HEA, and Coop lowers his walls to invite in love again. ✨️swoon✨️ These two were so fun and the spice was so nice. Ripped panties? Lets gooooooo! Guess what I'm reading next? If your guess was Laying Pipe, the next book in this story, you were right!!!! We love a hunky blue collar man finding love, and this series delivers. 100000...

The Deputy and His Enforcer: Kincaid Pack book 3: Kiki Clark

Image
When I tell you Robito can GET IT, you gotta believe me. What a hottie. This was book 06/179 rereads for my goodreads reviews and Kiki Clark DOES. NOT. MISS. Robson and Marcus are mates. Except Robson is a human and Marcus is a wolf shifter and enforcer for the Kincaid Pack. The situation is NOT made easier by the fact that Robson [cutely] believes that the pack is somehow mobsters or traff!ckers or just plan bad folks. But Robson can't stop investigating. It also doesn't help that he is attracted to Marcus. Or that Marcus is always staring at him. The tension? Amazing.  The comedy? Present. We also get a look into how sweet and insecure Marcus is under his professional and closed off exterior. Robson is absolutely perfect for him. • fated mates • pnr shifters • human/wolf shifter mates • magic • one smoking hot Puerto Rican deputy • said deputy's family • possessiveness  • fisting/knotting This story is so good. This series is so good. And Robito is mine, please and thank ...

The Amazing Alpha Tau Fratmas Experience : Lisa Henry and Sarah Honey

Image
I want this series to live on forever and ever. I love the Alpha Tau boys. And Scout ✨️squeals in dolphin language because the cuteness is just too much to bear✨️ Imma need a couple more Scout and Trey books please. This was the cutest little glimpse back into the lives of Marty, Scout, Trey, and a few of the other Alpha Tau guys. Everyone is leaving the frat house for Christmas, Scout is keeping a sad boy secret, and Marty & Trey try to make things better. Fratmas was adorable. This is one of my favorite feel good series, and it will definitely put a smile on your face!  • found family • college age frat brothers • established relationships  • holiday vibes & shenanigans  If you haven't read this series and the novellas that go along with it, I absolutely recommend! As always, my only issue was the fact that this was a novella and I could have read another 200 pages. 4.75 ⭐️

Joyful: Leather and Chrome book 2.5: Kiki Clark

Image
05/179 rereads for goodreads reviews. JOYFUL is a holiday novella set in the Leather and Chrome series universe. • holiday vibes • brother's childhood best friend • plus size mc • daddy/boy • little! • found family (the motorcycle club) • kink positive environment Emmett and Rooster (Gray) were so cute. I loved Emmett's sweetness. He was so shy! I loved Roni's protectiveness and of course seeing CJ and Ollie again. Emmett's family sucked and I loved how Gray took charge of that situation. I also really loved how their kinks lined up, and through it all Rooster was super communicative with Emmett. Honestly, my only problem with this story was that fact it was a novella and not 300 pages long. If you're a fan of kink and smut and great characters and motorcycle clubs then I definitely recommend this series! Based on vibes alone and my love of a daddy story? 5⭐️

Elas: Mate's Mark book 2: G. Eilsel

Image
Y'all this was not a squishy book, just a heads up. I am wrung out after finishing Elas and August's story and need something sickeningly sweet and smutty to balance the vibes. Don't get it twisted though, this is a GREAT series. A dystopian world, where monsters have taken over and humans live in cities run by the monsters or they live in the wild. The fates are punishing everyone for the violence, peace and balance can only be restored when a human and a monster find their mates in each other. Book one is Ronan and Cameron and book two is August and Elas. Again, these books are story heavy and terrible things are happening to pretty much everyone. The fated mates are great, the smut is also great. But oomph. The plot and the violence definitely take a toll. Book two leaves us with a HFN with the plot of the next book Nyx, already set in motion. I need a few days before I jump into my arc of Nyx, because Elas has me all up in my feels. If you like monsters and a dystopia a...

Temptation: Leather and Chrome book 2: Kiki Clark

Image
04/179 rereads for reviews on goodreads: Temptation, book two of the Leather and Chrome series. Whew 🔥🔥🔥 I forgot how kinky this one was, y'all! Six and Ollie were on fire! • D/s • total power exchange & rules • impact play • c○ck cage • voyeurism • ownership  • daddy • funishments • brat (but a sweet one) I loved how both Six and Ollie had both pretty much assumed they'd never find a partner who ticked all their boxes and then suddenly, the two are put into proximity of the other. I loved the kink. I loved the clear communication. I loved how talking/expressing himself was so not Six's vibe, but he does it anyway for Ollie. These two together make so much sense, and they really were 🔥🔥🔥 together. The Doug plot, the intro to Ollie's friends Penny, Vin and Mason were all well done. I loved seeing CJ and Tank again, too. This was a great reread and a great edition to the series. Definitely 5 stars from me! 

Heart2Heart: A Charity Anthology, Volume 8

Image
Catch Me Again: Emmy Sanders OMG was this short story SO cute and charming. Lian and Foster were the cutest and they had me giggling the entire time. Like, kicking the couch cute. Lian is an adorable disaster of a man. Like a cute Tasmanian devil that often runs into mayhem. Foster is remarkably chill, especially in the face of all that chaos, and is absolutely charmed by Lian's insanity. The cruise aspect was so funny, funniest about me: I am very ANTI cruise. I would never. The "cruise killer" had me cackling multiple times, too. My only complaint: I could have read 300 pages of this, and it was a short story. Emmy, you genius. Scoring a Sweet Thing: Jodi Oliver Bailey and Remi were so cute! Bailey, an introverted tattoo artist "rescues" Remi, professional hockey goalie and marshmallow aficionado, from "grannies who grab his butt" at a charity auction. That's literally the entire premise. But for a man like Remi who has been told he is "too ...

Festive Fugitive: KA Merikan

Image
3.75⭐️ Festive Fugitive is the next installment of KA Merikan's darker holiday novellas. This story was a rollercoaster from start to finish. I loved the last few years' holiday stories, but admittedly I didn't love this one. BUT I think a lot of you WILL love it. Especially if you're a fan of: • insta-obsession • murd3r babes • f r e e use • ○rgies • clingy/needy mcs The plot was fun: bad guy gets taken out, Luigi style, and then our two mcs go on the run. The spice: very spicy when it gets going. In classic Merikan style, it's graphic, and smut lovers will rejoice. This story was funny in parts and sad in others. The obsession between the two mcs didn’t make sense to me, but I DO think they needed each other. If you're looking for a fun but dark smut filled holiday themed story, I can't recommend this one enough. I bet it'll check all those boxes!

The Holiday Exchange: Riley Hart & Christina Lee

Image
The Holiday Exchange is out tomorrow!  This was a sweet little novella featuring Dawson and Briar, who think fake dating the holidays in a Hallmark-esque town is a bright idea. Dawson is into Briar practically as soon as they meet. But then one day Briar comes into the shop with Dawson's twin brother Nathan. Y'all it's a debacle. • fake dating • small storybook town • forced proximity • only one bed This was a cute holiday novella. I wish there had been a little more chemistry between the mcs, they were both so awkward! But again, super sweet and quick story!

Hacked: horn of glory book 3: May Archer & Lucy Lennox

Image
03/179 rereads for my goodreads reviews. HACKED was the last book in the Horn of Glory series. Hux and Kev were a snippy & nerdy combo. Throw in a little high stakes hacking and fake online players - their romance got swept in with the conclusion of the Horn/cartel drama. • Bodyguard/computer scientist • rich/poor dynamic • nerdy gamer guys • PUNS! • a bunny named Rodrigo  • an AI system named Henry Cavill • first times & a short king! • small town • found family Again, I loved these two and I loved this story. This writing duo regularly gives us fun quirky little details that keep their stories entertaining while delivering romances that are just the squishiest. The Horn Of Glory series is FUN, and I absolutely recommend it! Who doesnt love former service members turned security agents finding their person?

Hitched: Horn of Glory book 2: May Archer & Lucy Lennox

Image
Book 02/179 rereads from my unreviewed goodreads list. Hitched was a delight! Percy Champion "Champ" and Quinn were both the most antirelationship people ever, I mean, 64th night stand? LOL it was absurdly cute how stubborn both of them were. Champ and Quinn met in a bar and just kept on sleeping together. They both were very firmly in their "I don't do relationships" stance. But they had amazing chemistry, and they both seemed to like each other. When their jobs crossed, they had no choice but to pretend to be engaged. • bodyguard/wedding planner • fake engagement • serial one night stands • "you forgot your dog" • small town shenanigans  • random exes • high society mother • more puns  • dirty DEA agents I loved how sassy and quippy Quinn was. He always had a zinger. I loved how over the top possessive Champ was. Their adventure to Nashville in Quinn's orange bug had me in stitches and the overall storyline of this book was entertaining. The sexy...
