Burn for Me by Olivia Monroe is now live!

Lillian Rouse is new in town and determined to rebuild her life after a divorce. With everything new: a place to live, and a job in a new city, she sees an exciting future within her grasp. What she doesn’t take into account, is the handsome man who calls himself Smoke to overwhelm her senses.

Zack Smoker has worked hard to build his new company, and the last thing he was looking for was a woman to invade his mind. Especially one with little to no good experience in the bedroom. Only the first time he stares into her whiskey-colored eyes, he’s caught in a wave of desire that he can’t escape from.

When Zack learns that Lillian’s new job is at his company, he’s determined to get to know her and teach her things she never knew existed in the bedroom. He is all about pleasing her, but he never expected that he’d have the need to protect her too.

With Lillian pushing Zack away, the burn they feel for one another gets put to the side. Will the fire be extinguished or will Smoke find a way to get Whiskey to burn for him as he does for her?

Meet Olivia Monroe

Growing up in LA, Olivia always had a keen imagination and a talent for writing stories. Even from her early years, she hoped to see her name on a book cover and share her tales with others one day.

After gaining her degree in Creative Writing, she traded the warm weather of LA for colder and wetter winters in NYC. There she met her husband Michael, with whom she has a daughter, Emma, and son, Danny.

Olivia is a self-proclaimed romantic, which has helped bless her with a career writing steamy, contemporary romance novels. She admits that much of her inspiration comes from people watching in corner café’s and observing couples strolling through local parks.

Beyond writing, Olivia loves to indulge in red wine and dark chocolate but can’t stand onions of any kind. After a long day, you can find her relaxing in a warm bubble bath or blowing off steam through dance.

In the future, she hopes to buy a cottage in Southern France where she can continue to write steamy romance novels, with her faithful golden retriever, Roberto, lazily sleeping at her feet.

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Zack Smoker has a new company that he’s worked hard to build and it’s doing well. He still gets to work on something that is close to his heart and what his previous job was all about. He’s a protector, a man that always wants to help people. While waiting for his business partner to show up for dinner at a local restaurant, he sees a woman that at first, he has no interest in, but when she almost falls into his lap, he takes a good look at her, and they start a conversation.

Lillian Rouse is in a new town, starting a new life, and a new job. While waiting for her best friend to show up and have dinner with her, she waits at the bar and meets a handsome stranger. While talking with him she finds that she is able to leave the old Lily behind and can let herself be someone she’s always been afraid of being. When she starts her new job, she’s shocked to see who her boss is.

I really liked this first book in the Whiskey and Smoke Duet. Zack and Lily are great characters, but Zack’s best friend and partner made me a little irritated. Zack and Lily have both had problems and pain in their pasts and are trying to find a way to move on with their lives and be happy. However, when trouble finds Lily, Zack wants to step in and help her, but she’s reluctant. Lily is afraid of leaving one frying pan to another with a man that is overbearing and bossy. Besides, she loves her new job and doesn’t want to have to find another one if things go south. This was a great start to a duet, and I am excited to read Burn with Me. I give this book a 5-star review and look forward to more.

So I forgot about the night I spent with Sylvie Davis… big deal.

Listing all of my one-night stands would be impossible.

It’s par for the course for any man who decided early in life they’d rather enjoy a buffet instead of a single entrée.

But now my boss has ordered me to accompany her back to her hometown.

His words: She needs a little help.

Translation: I think you could fall for this girl.

Leave it to the MC president, and every other chump in this club, to think I need help where women are concerned.

They think love is the final answer in this game of life. If you don’t have it you’re losing.

I know they’re wrong, but find myself grateful that I agreed to go.

It doesn’t take long for an ex to come sniffing around.

I say he’s bad news.

She says I’m jealous.

With the vibes I’m getting from this guy, I find myself hoping she’s right.

The alternative is bad for everyone concerned.

Let’s see…where to begin…

I’m inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we’re doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master’s degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there’s usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I’m not writing; I’m reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I’m reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it’s gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.

MY REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Spade is a one and done, love em and leave me kind of guy. He wants no attachments and has avoided them for years. When he sees the beauty at the Care Home, he can’t help himself but flirt with her, but he doesn’t know why she is mad at him or shoots him down.

Sylvia Davis is a woman that is not into attachments, she’s lost a lot in her young life and does not want a permanent relationship or a man to have to answer to. The only man in her life is Big Daddy, her grandfather that raised her. When she has to return to the hometown she left years ago to settle her grandfather’s property, she finds more than she’s looking for. Being a close friend to a Cerberus woman, Sylvia has an escort that she is not pleased to have.

Spade and Sylvia had an encounter months ago, but only one of them remembers it. When they are pushed together for Sylvia to return to her hometown, Spade is still a bit confused as to why she is mad at him, when the night they shared comes back to him, his feelings change. Sylvie is determined to keep her distance from Spade because she’s had enough pain in her life and she doesn’t need a broken heart on top of it. This story has tragedy, cautious H and h, great characters and a secret that threatens to break Sylvie further. I love the story and the characters are always great in the Cerberus MC books. This book was no different. It was an emotional read, but it was great. I give this book a 5-star review and can’t wait for Aro’s book. I love the Cerberus MC books.
