๐ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฆ๐ by Stephanie Rose is perfect now that we are in baseball season and this standalone has:ย
โพ 2 POV
โพ Cinnamon Roll Hero
โพ Romance Writer w/ a day job
โพ Forbidden Romance
โพ Forced Proximity
โพ He Falls First
โพ Single Mom (she takes care of her younger sister)
โพ MLB Manager
Silas Jones is relocating to a new city for work. When a chance encounter becomes one HOT night. When he can’t stop thinking about her and fate reconnects them it’s not exactly the way he imagined.
Rachel Manning barely has enough free time between work, writing, and taking care of her younger sister. What will happen when she discovers that her PR firm was hired by the baseball team and her one night “Mr. Can’t Stop thinking about” is now the center of her PR firms new project?
If only her company didn’t have a VERY strict no fraternization rule. Would she consider risking it all for another night?
Readers this story has it all from baseball off and on the field, steamy tension, banter, great characters, and a few secrets. If you are looking a new spin where the hero is the General Manger this is your chance. I can think of a few baseball GM’s who could’ve been the inspiration for our beloved hero.
For those who have kindle unlimited…it’s in there so go…grab a copy and let me know what you think. 
This spicy sports romance series has off-and-on-the-baseball field fun, super spicy banter, shenanigans, and so much more
Thank you to Hambright PR for an advance reader copy and surprise book mail with an autographed paper copy for an honest and fair review.

North by Sawyer Bennett (The PIttsburgh Titans Book 16) ๐Hockey playoffs are HERE!! What better way to get ready for the action than with a new HOCKEY ROMANCE?
Why should you read this book?
๐ฅ Teammate’s little sister
โค๏ธFriends with benefits
๐ฅ He falls first
โค๏ธBlack Cat/ Golden Retriever Vibes
๐ฅ Professional hockey player
Farren Abrams is just looking for a good time. Will she confess to her brother the real reason she’s in town?
North Paquette can’t stop thinking about the one woman he shouldn’t want but would do anything for. Will he risk everything and confess how he really feels?
It will take a leap of faith to find the strength to trust.
Once again, another great read from Sawyer Bennett in her world of hockey. While this is the sixteenth book in the series each and every one can be read as a standalone. However, with all the interconnected characters each one is not to be missed!
For those who love audio books…North is narrated by Stephen Dexter & Savannah Peachwood. They are perfectly cast and I enjoyed listening to the story.
This spicy romance has exploration that is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting.ย Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or momentsย that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat with off-and-on-the-ice hockey fun.
Thank you Sawyer Bennett for the advance reader copy for an honest and fair review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I can’t wait to read the next installment…I’ve been waiting for Penn’s story and it looks to be so…soo…good!

Bridesmaid by Chance by Meghan Quinn has it all – an executive assistant, a grumpy businessman, an agreement, expectations, and a desire to be accepted results in a marriage of convenience.
As long as Hudson and Sloane can keep their secret plan a “secret” from the one person who would unalive them both. There is just one tiny little hiccup…the undeniable attraction between them.
It’s time to discover why you should have at least one of Meghan Quinn’s books on your shelf or e-reader this summer. This series was one of my favorites and this book delivers plenty of laugh out loud moments, lots of delicious sizzle and tension, a hero with a dark and edgier vibe, and my new favorite book boyfriend.
The plot and character arc are paced perfectly and there is plenty of balance with all the comedic banter. How long will it take for Hudson and Sloane to crack under pressure, admit they can’t live without each other, and hope that family and friends won’t unalive them before they figure it all out…this is one you won’t want to miss.
While this is the third book in the series it can be read as a standalone. However, with all the fun, interconnected characters, and great plot…you’ll want to read all of them!
Caution this Scorchin Hot read may lead to unexpected need to turn on the A/C. So steamy the pages ignite. There are multiple intimacy scenes, some may be โextra spicyโ and/or graphic. Some scenes might include a dash of โtie-me-up-tie-me-downโ play such as light bondage or sex toys as characters explore their curiosities and desires.
Thank you to Meghan Quinn for the advance reader copy for an honest and fair review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. If you are a kindle unlimited reader Meghan’s backlist is endless leaving plenty to read for weeks of fun!

Mr. Charming by Piper Rayne (Book #4 The Nest) is a sports romance that has off-and-on-the-ice hockey fun, super spicy banter, and shenanigans. IYKYK
โ Hockey Romance
โ Reunited Lovers
โ Enemies to Lovers
โ Close Proximity
โ Will They or Wont They
โ Woman that got away
โ Pining Hero
I’ve had so much fun getting to know the guys at The Nest, following the Chicago Falcons, and the rest of the gang. While each book can be read as a standalone if you enjoy books with interconnected characters it’s time to dive into Piper Rayneโs world of hockey.
As the series comes to a close I was thrilled the hero in this final chapter was Tweetieโs story. The creative way Piper Rayne tells their story was absolute perfection allowing readers to really understand the physical and emotional impact between the hero and heroine as well as within their world.
Tweetie Sorenson is a man of many talents and needs to realize that he isnโt like his father, will he figure it out before he loses Tedi…again?
As always I enjoyed listening to the audiobook as I read my kindle because this Audio Full Cast Narration was delicious! Thanks to Troy Duran, Christine Lakin, Sean Masters, Connor Crais, JF Harding, Teddy Hamilton, and CJ Bloom they bring to life a truly enjoyable read.
This spicy romance has exploration that is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting.ย Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or moments that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.
While this can be read as a standalone I hope you’ll consider reading or listening to any of the books in this series. Each book is guaranteed to bring plenty of banter, tension, and tons of chemistry.ย Thank you to Piper Rayne for the advance reader copy for an honest and fair review. The audiobook is equally enjoyable and with a fabulous cast of narrators it was an absolute blast listening!

โDo you have any fucking idea how fucking beautiful you are?โ A small chuckle escapes him. Itโs filled with nervous energy and a touch of chaos.
I blink several times, my mouth opening slightly to respond but nothing comes out. Because, did he really just say that? What do I say in return? Why is my throat constricting?ย
โWhatโs underneath that T-shirt?โย
His question shocks me a little. I wasnโt expecting that at all. But itโs not a bad kind of shocked, like Iโm appalled. Instead, Iโm feeling quiteโฆ turned on.
โJust my panties,โ I say honestly.
He squeezes his eyes shut for a long moment, inhaling deeply. He presses his palms to his eye sockets, applying pressure like heโs trying to rid a headache. And then he drops his hands, his eyes back on me in an instant.
โIโm going to ask you something, Darcy. And you have to be honest with me. No matter what.โ His face is serious.
โOkay.โ
โIโm a thirty-five-year-old man, Darcy. Iโm a single dad, which somehow always has my life in a state of crazy. And then thereโs you. And youโre young and beautiful and vibrant. Youโve got your whole life ahead of you, and you could literally have or be anything you want. You know?โ He exhales. All of that tumbled out of him in one breath and now heโs looking at me like I should totally understand.
โI donโt understand,โ I admit.ย
โJustโโ He straightens his shoulders and takes a moment to compose himself. โJust stand up, please.โ
Without hesitation, I crawl to the edge of the bed and step off, making sure my shirt doesnโt ride up. Iโm mere inches from him, but still, he steps closer. His body is humming. I can feel the energy rolling off him. But I donโt move.
