Author: Rae Kennedy
Genre: New Adult Romance

Blurb

When I decide to run away with a sexy stranger and follow his band on tour all summer, I’m running away from more than home. I’m running away from the lies I’ve been telling my family, away from expectations, away from being perfect Gracie Gallagher.

Perfect Gracie would never. But this summer I’m going to be Fun Gracie. Exciting Gracie. Gracie who takes chances and gets a little reckless.

But now I’m telling a new kind of lie: Pretending to date a broody, tattooed Rockstar. Except my feelings aren’t fake and as I start to find myself, I risk losing more than just my inhibitions and my virginity. I’m risking my heart.

Excerpt

At the far side of the lot is a large silver van. Three figures stand near it, silhouetted by a street light. They appear to be talking, laughing even, and passing something between them. A puff of smoke billows out around one of the men’s heads and gets swept away, dissolving into the breeze.

I recognize the relaxed posture and the way Logan runs his hand through his hair.

“That’s them.”

“You sure about this?” Kyla asks, her voice higher than normal.

Nope.

“Yeah.”

Wasn’t she the one convincing me to do this earlier? It’s okay, I can hype myself. Once a cheerleader, always a cheerleader, right? I’m only about to leave in a dark van from a seedy motel in the middle of the night with four men I don’t know.

Am I being kidnapped?

I reach for the handle, and if I thought my heart was racing before, it’s now a jackhammer against my ribs as I open the door and climb out of the car.

BLOGS REVIEW

This is book three in the To Be Yours series and each book can be read as a standalone. We get different characters and different topics. If you enjoy fake relationships with a musician then I highly recommend you read this book. Grace is sweet and completely opposite of Colin. She is hiding a lie from her family as well as expectations, but go explore and live life is what I say to her. Lines become blurred between these two characters and you can feel the passion they have for each other. Life doesn't always go as planned and sometimes going off the map plan of life works for you or teaches you a lesson. I truly enjoyed this book and series and would recommend this author to others.

Two can play... but can two win when it comes to love?

A lawyer by day and a player by night, Cash Creed’s life in Texas is about one thing—living it up. When a tragedy in the family summons Cash to Ocean City for the summer, he’s excited about the possibility for hot new conquests and a no-rules kind of fun.

Sage Everling, a self-made successful entrepreneur, is strong, sassy, and okay with loving them and leaving them. Too busy for serious love, her focus is on success… but that doesn’t mean she can’t have some fun from time to time.

Two players spend the summer in a town focused on freedom and passion. When Sage and Cash’s paths cross, however, they both meet their match. As the summer progresses and their feelings intensify, both learn that playing for fun and playing for keeps are two very different games.

Who will be conquered?

“Friends?” he asks, extending a hand. “Or is that against the rules, too?”
“I don’t know. I don’t have a rule for that. I usually don’t see my lays more than once,” I admit, smiling.
“Sage Everling, you’ve got a heart of steel. Has anyone ever broken through it?” he asks me.
I stare at him defiantly. “Never,” I confess.
“Well, I’m not one to give up, you know?”
I open my mouth in protest but before I can say anything, he’s pinning me up against the door on my car, his mouth pressed against mine. I want to stop him, my head telling me this isn’t a good idea. But as his hand moves through my hair in just perfect way, as he takes ownership of me with his lips, I ease into it.
He’s a little bit aggressive and a whole lot of confident.
He’s the alpha to my alpha, and it’s just the way I like it.
It’s a power struggle with this one, both of us trying to take the reins.
Somehow, though, the tug-of-war works. I like it, I admit to myself.
I like him.
Just when I find my hands wandering to his hips, thinking about how good it would feel to let him take me in the backseat, he pulls away.
“See you later,” he says, calmly strolling away, leaving me breathless against my car, wondering what the hell just happened. He shoots me a smile and a wink before climbing into his car and driving away.
I open the car door and slump into the seat, resting my head on the steering wheel.
Damn, that man’s good.
For a moment, I almost thought maybe I was going to break my rules. I shake my head, wondering what game Cash Creed is up to and how I’m going to beat him at it.

A high school English teacher, an author, and a fan of anything pink and/or glittery, Lindsay's the English teacher cliché; she loves cats, reading, Shakespeare, and Poe.

She currently lives in her hometown with her husband, Chad (her junior high sweetheart); their cats, Arya, Amelia, Alice, and Bob; and their Mastiff, Henry.

Lindsay's goal with her writing is to show the power of love and the beauty of life while also instilling a true sense of realism in her work. Some reviewers have noted that her books are not the “typical romance.” With her novels coming from a place of honesty, Lindsay examines the difficult questions, looks at the tough emotions, and paints the pictures that are sometimes difficult to look at. She wants her fiction to resonate with readers as realistic, poetic, and powerful. Lindsay wants women readers to be able to say, “I see myself in that novel.” She wants to speak to the modern woman’s experience while also bringing a twist of something new and exciting. Her aim is for readers to say, “That could happen,” or “I feel like the characters are real.” That’s how she knows she's done her job.

Lindsay's hope is that by becoming a published author, she can inspire some of her students and other aspiring writers to pursue their own passions. She wants them to see that any dream can be attained and publishing a novel isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

Blurb

Justin
I had the perfect bachelor's life.
No obligations. 
No commitments.
The greatest job in the world, all while being paid millions to do it.

Until I became a dad overnight.
My world turned upside down, 
I went from ballfields and bars to dirty diapers and bottles. 
I turned to my best friend for help but ended up with his little sister.

Now, all I want is the one woman I can't have.
She's the curveball I never saw coming.
The one woman I'm willing to commit to and change my old ways for.

I just have to show her that we can be a family.


Riley
Indianapolis was my fresh start.
A new place near my family. 

When my brother's best friend ended up with a surprise baby dropped on his doorstep,
I was the perfect nanny for the job.
Everything was falling into place,
If only I could keep my mind and hands off the playboy baller dad.

Working for someone you are attracted to is hard.
But when he's your brother's best friend and you live with him?
Talk about impossible.

Fatherhood changed him, but is it enough to give us a chance at a happily ever after?

This is book two in the Indianapolis Lighting series and oh what a Curve Ball it is! Love it! Justin AKA JJ is all about baseball and scoring not only on the field, but off the field. Curve Ball one, you get a baby at your doorstep and are now a dad. Curve Ball two, you never saw your teammates and BFs sister as anything, but that is until she becomes your nanny. The question is will JJ throw another Curve Ball and strike out or will he land a homerun? 
The chemistry between these two is hawt, you will love how Riley is with Evie and you will laugh watching JJ tending to his daughter. Thank goodness for Riley or he'd be a hawt mess! HaHa (you will understand once you read the book). Fans of sports romance and BFs sister, this one's for you then. There is not a book by this author that you won't fall in love with regardless of her series. Speaking of which, I love an upcoming book in one of her other series that will be coming out soon cause I was hoping it would be this song! Score! 




Title: Agony
Series: Entangled Hearts Duet #1
Author: Kaylee Ryan
Genre: New Adult Romance
Release Date: June 18, 2020



Blurb

Reese 

Cooper Reeves was the boy-next-door. Every milestone, every memory of my youth was entangled with his. 

We were inseparable... until college.
It wasn’t his friends, girls or even sports that came between us— it was me. 

Tired of being in the friend zone, I finally made a move. Turns out it was the wrong one. 

Cooper walked away to play his first year of professional football and left me behind with a broken heart. 

Cooper 

It’s always been her. Even before I really knew what love was, Reese Latham was by my side, making me swear we’d be best friends forever. 

And we were... until one night changed everything. I knew how she felt because I felt it too, but I pushed her away to save our friendship. 

The longer we’re apart, the more I realize she’s not only my best friend, Reese is the love of my life.

I was kidding myself thinking I could let her go because now I know that living without her is the worst kind of agony.

Title says it all! True Agony reading this book. This is book one in the Entangled Hearts Duet so we must wait until book two releases to see if our hearts will still be in Agony or Pure Bliss. This truly makes you think how many opposite sex best friends are truly just that or just harboring their feelings to avoid rejection or ruining a friendship. 
Reese and Cooper grew up together and have an instant connection, they need each other in life. Football is where he is going so now may not be the time to try to explore if they could be more than friends, but does that ruin their chance is the question. You will feel these character emotions and you will love how the football family treats Reese as well. Patiently waiting to see where our hearts will go when we get our hands on the final book in this duet.
