ARC Review: Suppression (Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team #2) by Laramie Briscoe @GiveMeBooksPR and @LaramieBriscoe

Suppression Teaser 2

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5

Nick “Cooper” Kempler is a young man who is lost but wants to have a normal life so much. He’s kind, generous, sweet, and stubborn, but most of all he’s a boy who was abused, neglected, and rescued. He has a hard time expressing his feelings and won’t let anyone get too close to him for fear of abandonment or rejection. He’s a force to be reckoned with if a child is being abused or neglected. He will fight for that child with all he has.

Kelsey Harrison has loved Nick since she was a little girl but he won’t let her in. They are friends but she wants so much more from him. She’s waited for so long, but can she wait any longer for a man who doesn’t seem to return her feelings?

Extenuating circumstances will bring them together but how will things work out for them. Will they be able to make a life together? Will a tragedy be the catalyst for Nick to figure out his feelings and finally telling Kelsey how he feels?

Wow! Thank you for writing this story! I have read the entire series so far, to include the MTF books, and I thought they were all really good, but this one took the cake. It was a roller coaster ride from the very beginning. I love the characters in all of these stories, but Nick’s story was so heartfelt and touching that he stole my heart. I love this book and highly recommend it to readers who enjoy a story of a man finding his future and the love of his life and having to figure out how to keep her in his life forever.

I give this story a 5-star review and I am looking forward to more in the Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team series.

BLURB 

From USA Today Bestselling author, the second book in the Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team Series

If you don’t love, you can’t get hurt…

Nick Kepler

One thing my childhood taught me was never show my emotions. Don’t make memories. Don’t count on other people. Don’t hope for the best.

All that changed when I was adopted by Ryan and Whitney Kepler.

Begrudgingly I let them into my life, along with my new sister and a best friend I would lay down my life for. But giving up my heart and accepting love in return from Kelsea Harrison? It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever tried to do.

And the truth is? I’m not sure if I’m that strong.

Suppression Teaser 1

Kelsea Harrison

From the very moment I met Nick Kepler I knew he would be the love of my life. Problem is I haven’t been able to convince him of that yet.

When our best friends get married, Nick and I spend a drunken night letting our walls down and losing all our inhibitions. In one moment I’m given everything I ever wanted. Then, in the blink of an eye it’s taken away from me.

The question is, can I be strong for the both of us?

The answer? I have to be.

AMELIA:

“This is your last chance to change your mind.” He lifted his hand, cupping my throat and giving it a slight squeeze before he ran his thumb over my lower lip. “You can walk out that door now, and we won’t go any further. We can figure out another solution.”

I stared into his cobalt gaze and for the first time since I came back, I saw the vulnerable boy I’d fallen so hard for. He’d always acted the part of the hard, overconfident man, but deep down he had his own demons and insecurities.

“I already said I accepted your offer.”

“From this moment on, this body.” He shifted until there was nothing separating us.

He gripped my waist, and then trailed the fingers on my throat down between my breasts and to my lingerie-covered crotch. “This pussy.” He grazed my clit, eliciting a moan. “Every sound of your desire will belong to me.”

His palm splayed over my abdomen. “As will the child I plan to put inside of you.”

I opened my lips to respond but nothing came out. Pierce stepped away from me, moving to the far end of the room near the cabinets.

“Strip.”

I stood frozen.

This was it. I was now back in the world of those desires I’d tried so hard to repress.

He glanced over his shoulder. “I said, strip.”

His voice had changed to the thick timbre that caused my skin to tingle and breasts to swell. He took a seat in an armchair and watched me, not saying a word but ordering me to follow his directions or stuff the consequences.

I moved to a chaise, using the back to help me keep balance as I slipped off my heels. Slowly, I opened the threaded binding of my lace corset. Once it was off, I set it on the sofa. Next came my stockings and underwear. In a matter of minutes, I’d gone from Amelia Thanos, international sports promoter-manager, to Pierce Lykaios’s submissive.

“Now come here.”

Taking ginger steps, I walked toward him. His hooded gaze had my pulse jumping. When I was a foot from him, he settled his hands on my waist, pulling me closer. I caught myself from tumbling by clutching his shoulders.

He traced one of the tattoos on my hip.

The trident.

It was the exact replica of the one he had on his hip. I’d convinced Pierce to get the symbol as a way to commemorate his six gold medals and name the press had given him as the American Poseidon.

He lifted his head, beautiful blue eyes locking with mine. There was pain and confusion warring in their depths.

“So I left a mark on you too.” It wasn’t a question but a statement.

He hadn’t a clue as to the marks he’d left on me. When we were younger, I reveled in the torrent of emotions I’d felt for him. Now it was like drowning with no way to escape.

Release: Ivy’s Poison by India R. Adams @EJBooksPromos @TheIndiaRAdams

Title: Ivy’s Poison
Series: Cavalieri Della Morte Series
Author: India R. Adams
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: May 2, 2019

Bors is hungry for revenge after one of his assignments spins out of control. Not only is he tortured by the man he was hired to murder, the president of a notorious and ruthless motorcycle club, but he’s also left in the care of the man’s deranged daughter, Ivy. And she knows exactly who is chained and at her mercy, the one she has wanted dead for three years.
During captivity, Bors witnesses what has become of Ivy’s life, and finds himself trapped between hatred and sorrow for his female tormentor.
“It only took one day for me to hate her more than my worst enemy.
Only took two to start planning her death. 
And only three… to fall in love with her.”
Bors is an avenger. Especially Ivy’s.


HOSTED BY:

blog_review

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ – 4.5 out of 5

Bors a member of the Cavalieri Della Morte, is a man who kills with knives. He likes it close and personal when he makes a kill. A man without a family or ties cannot be compromised. Bors believes that his life is fine the way it is, but he cannot seem to rid his mind of the beautiful redhead that drugged him and rocked his world in the same night.

Ivy was raised in a cruel MC. Her father never treated her like a daughter. She would love to get away from the life she lives, but she has no way of protecting herself or her little girl if she runs and is caught by her father or his men.

Beth is a woman who has been in the MC for years. She’s the wife of the VP that was murdered, but she is also a good friend and mother figure in Ivy’s life. They are close and protect each other as much as possible in their world.

Bors is sent on a contract by Arthur to eliminate the President of a ruthless MC, the same MC that he killed the VP of. He’s a man with a plan and is always prepared when setting up a contract.

I really liked this story and enjoyed the way the story played out. Bors is man with a heart, but like his brothers in the Della Morte, he thinks he doesn’t have one. The instant chemistry between Ivy and Bors is great. Ivy is a woman who is not afraid of Bors, nor is she afraid to stand up to him. This story was a quick read for me. The story kept my interest and the pages turning so quickly that I lost track of time.

I give this story a 4.5-star review and recommend to readers who like the dark underworld and the men who live in that world. I love the sexy man on the cover too.

Pretty Reckless, an all-new standalone high school, bully romance from USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen, is available now!

LJSPrettyRecklessBookCover6x9_MEDIUM.jpg

We were supposed to be best friends

But turned out to be worst enemies…

Penn

They say revenge is a dish best served cold.

I’d had four years to stew on what Daria Followhill did to me, and now my heart is completely iced.

I took her first kiss.

She took the only thing I loved.

I was poor.

She was rich.

The good thing about circumstances? They can change. Fast.

Now, I’m her parents’ latest shiny project.

Her housemate. Her tormentor. The captain of the rival football team she hates so much.

Yeah, baby girl, say it—I’m your foster brother.

There’s a price to pay for ruining the only good thing in my life, and she’s about to shell out some serious tears.

Daria Followhill thinks she is THE queen. I’m about to prove to her that she’s nothing but a spoiled princess.

Daria

Everyone loves a good-old, unapologetic punk.

But being a bitch? Oh, you get slammed for every snarky comment, cynical eye roll, and foot you put in your adversaries’ way.

The thing about stiletto heels is that they make a hell of a dent when you walk all over the people who try to hurt you.

In Penn Scully’s case, I pierced his heart until he bled out, then left it in a trash can on a bright summer day.

Four years ago, he asked me to save all of my firsts for him.

Now he lives across the hall, and there’s nothing I want more than to be his last everything.

His parting words when he gave me his heart were that nothing in this world is free.

Now? Now he is making me pay.

Review of: Three Alpha Romeo by Krista Wolf @HiddenGemsBooks

Danger and a common enemy brought them together, but love kept them together.

Andrea is a woman looking for revenge and has worked hard to get herself into position to finally take it. However, things do not work out in her favor the night she plans to get her revenge.

Marcus is an ex-Army Ranger and a man looking to avenge the woman he loved. He is working alone and thinks he is going to exact his revenge the same night as Andrea, but things don’t work out in his favor either.

Randall and Holden are ex-SEALs who want revenge on the same man as Andrea and Marcus, but they are working together and know about Andrea’s desire to avenge her loved one. They know nothing of Marcus’ desire to avenge his loved one, yet. They were on the same SEAL team and work like a well-oiled machine. Their differences make them a great team.

Alexander Kyrkos is a man who is dangerous and works for a group called Indigo. It’s a worldwide group of killers and dangerous men. He’s also paranoid and keeps moving around the world in hopes that his enemies won’t find him or kill him. He’s not as well liked as he once way in the group and is being hunted by these four to exact revenge for the death of people they cared about.

I really enjoyed the suspense of this story. There were a few times where I was holding my breath hoping that things would work out and none of these four main characters were killed. Their commitment to their goal as well as each other never waned and they worked very well together for a common goal. While at first, I thought Marcus was going to be a wild card, he turned out to be a guy they could all count on and trust. The twists in the story were perfect and kept me wondering if Marcus was truly a bad guy or just a guy caught up in a bad situation.

I give this story a 4-star review and highly recommend it to readers who enjoy sassy, brassy women who know how to take care of themselves, as well as Alpha men who are smart enough to let their woman be herself but still be there to protect her and take care of her. I loved the Extended Epilogue too. Thank you for more of their story.

Review: A Light In The Desert by Anne Montgomery

a-light-in-the-desert-cov-6

Wow, what an interesting read. A story of truth and fiction intertwined to create an interesting story of a pregnant teen girl, a Vietnam vet, a group of people from the Children of Light compound, a derailed train, and a young man who has a lot of issues.

Kelly Garcia is a young teen girl who is pregnant. She is not a social person, she’s never been to school, and she is pretty much kept out of the public eye by her mother who is simultaneously ashamed of her due to a birth defect and jealous of her for the attention she receives from her step-father.

The Children of the Light a group that live off the land they tend in the desert of Arizona. They are a religious cult that takes Kelly in when her mother doesn’t want her in the home any longer. They care for her and help her. They are also friends with Jason Ramm a man who lives on his own near the Rowley Mine and helps the Children of the Light with groceries. He is a man who is trained to be ruthless and deadly, but he just wants redemption and peace, a man who is fighting with his ghosts from his past but has a good heart and is kind and considerate as well as secretive and a loner.

This story has many characters that are introduced throughout the story. They all fit into the story in a way that helps bring the story to life. This story was intriguing, suspenseful, and heartwarming at times, but also heart-wrenching as well. The treatment of Kelly by her mother and the innocence of her made my heartbreak when she met new people and the way she had to steel herself for the shock on their faces or expected shock from them when they saw her. The intrigue of Jason Ramm’s story and his need to be secluded and secretive kept me interested in him and the story.

I give this story a 4.5-star review and recommend it to readers who enjoy a story of fact and fiction mixed to create a story that pulls you in and keeps you turning the pages for answers. The detail of the desert colors and sights were so well written and were easy to picture. I do wish there was more about Jason Ramm and what happened to him after he left. This was my first read by Anne Montgomery and I was not at all disappointed.

Blurb:
I’ve been betrayed. A hit gone wrong. I’m hurt and hunted.

She helps me out of fear–an innocent snatched up in my bid to escape. I can’t let her live because she’s seen my face.
No survivors. No witnesses. That’s a code I live by and one I’ve always upheld. Yet when it comes to my petal, she makes me hesitate.

I want to taste her and make her mine in the most primitive way. Ravage her. Devour her. Allowing my need for her to take hold.

Unsure of who to trust, I feel the enemy closing in. I should set her free, but I can’t. I’ll discover who has a price on my head and I’ll end them, meeting blood with blood, and bullet with bullet.

Would she still want me when she sees me kill? Or will it scare her off for good?

ARC REVIEW: His Salvation: Cavalieri Della Morte by Claire Marta

his salvation-3DeReader

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5

Our past has a way of coming back to us at some point in our lives.

Kay Lockwood is a killer and a member of the Cavalieri Della Morte. He was born into the life. His father and mother were both murdered when he was a child, but his father was also a killer. Only he was not a member of the Cavalieri Della Morte. After the death of Kay’s parents, he was taken in by Paulo Jilani and raised as his own son. Unfortunately, for Kay, Paulo was the only one in the family who cared about Kay.

Evelyn Thornton has recently graduated from college with her degree as a veterinarian. Always the good girl, straight A’s, studious, and always doing as her parents expect, Evelyn is finally doing something for herself. She won an all-expenses paid trip to Italy for one week. She’s excited about this trip and the possibility of doing something out of the ordinary for her and a little crazy. Little does she know that her life is about to change in so many ways.

I loved this story and the way the story unfolded was perfect. The past comes back to haunt Kay and Paulo in ways that could end with the death of both of them as well as innocents. Kay is a ruthless man who does not take his job lightly. He is lethal, focused, and very dangerous. He will also lose his heart without even knowing it.

I give this story a 4-star review and recommend it to readers who have started reading the Cavalieri Della Morte stories as well as readers who enjoy reading about a lethal Alpha male losing his heart unexpectedly and finding someone who challenges him in different ways than his job does.
