Terrific banter, sizzling chemistry. Exceptional college romance book. It had a little bit of everything I like in this type of story. Jamaica is full of sass and Callahan is a charmer. One of my favorite scenes is Jamaica's education to football, brought a huge smile to my face.

She doesn't When Katherine began working at the Devil's Den a bar owned by the Devil's House MC, she has her favorite, Patch the President of the MC. She doesn't have any clue that he is completely enthralled with her.
Patch doesn't think that Katherine could want a hardened man like him but with the support of his club he takes a chance and is thrilled with the outcome. Katherine though has a past that enrages him, he wants to wrap her in bubble wrap to protect her but with trouble brewing outside his club can he keep her safe?
Great beginning to this series. I liked Patch, all the men in this series have a dark past and it was really fascinating to see the hard and soft sides of Patch. Katherine is his queen and once he is settled with his decision about her magic happens. Definitely reading the rest in series....more

OnTech fell hard for Brooke knowing she was the woman who was his future. Their relationship though was not received with open arms by Tech's mother. One moment they are happy, the next Brooke is faced with a decision and lets him go. Can Tech win her back or are they doomed?
I liked Tech but the cheating aspect even though they are technically not together at the time bothers me. I get why Brooke balked, Tech I feel dropped the ball with this mom. Had some interesting plot twists though. I like the series, they are all a bit angsty but overall entertaining....more
Breaker would like a woman who could love him and his handful of a young son Noah. The problem is his son is a terror when it comes to Breaker and theBreaker would like a woman who could love him and his handful of a young son Noah. The problem is his son is a terror when it comes to Breaker and the women he is interested in. That is until Quinn, Noah's teacher enters the picture. Breaker is all in but when he does something that is a hard line for Quinn he loses her.
Quinn's father cheated on her mother, she learned from that and her standards are incredibly high. That one incident erected a wall for Quinn and she has never forgiven her father, as the story unfolds you get the gist of why and understand where she is coming from. Breaker was an idiot but technically they were not together at the time. I felt like Quinn's grudge went on for too long and this part of the story dragged for me. Otherwise a ton of stuff happens in this book that fills in some gaps in the other stories. Overall a really good series....more

When a couple of instances target Daphne, Ian is by her side and although Daphne is a strong woman, Ian is not letting her out of his sight.
Immensely fun. You had the romance but while that is a part of the story the main story is the history of the house. Several twists and turns that were unexpected. I really enjoyed Daphne, she says what she feels even when it is not delicate. Ian was a force to be reckoned with. Terrific chemistry between the two. ...more

Wonderful, I liked the pacing in this one. Storm was pure alpha male and I really enjoyed his character. Liked this couple a lot and anxious to see who is next in the series....more

The one thing I really appreciate with the Buckeye Falls series is the characters are down to earth. Reading the faux wedding of sweet youth was delightful. Mallory has been so busy with her career life has gone by, perfectly paired with Beckett. Another great read from this author....more

He never thought he would fall for a woman, especially Violet, she is everything he is not. Quiet and beautiful Tats makes Violet an offer, hang out as best friends but with benefits.

His brothers who he grew up with are fighting to keep him in the MC not understanding the rage he holds to the club. A storm is brewing though and an unexpected ally though is watching out for Tats in ways no one else can.
I loved this one. Tats is angry, and should be. He is a bit of a jerk at first but when it comes to Violet he is so sweet and she encompasses his world. Really well done....more

He Smokey married a woman who was pregnant but he hates her and is waiting for her to break their prenup when he meets Olivia and her daughter April. He knows instantly she is it for him and he does his best to win Olivia over. The problem is he ends up believing a lie and acts despicably before he realizes he has been played. Now Olivia wants nothing do with him, Smokey is determined to win Olivia back but she is stubborn to boot he has an uphill battle to win back his heart.
I liked this one but there were two things that did not make it a five for me. Cheating, even if they are broken up makes me nuts. The other is I felt Olivia dragged him through the coals with the grudge, I get it but it was a bit much for me. Otherwise great story, I think some of the MC ol ladies are a bit to judgy though....more

When he sees the love of his life Kennedy "Kitten" at the chapel where his close friend is getting married, his world is rocked. He reacts and it makes his MC aware of the fact they have not looked after their brother and he needs help. Breaker wants a second chance with Kennedy but he has a long road ahead with fixing what is broken within him and gaining back Kennedy's trust. Can Kennedy learn to trust him again?
Tear jerker, everyone for the most part in the Speed Demons thought Breaker was the good time boy partying without a care in the world while he was fragmented and haunted by the things he did and saw in war. His story is heart wrenching at times. I have to give Kennedy credit because she could have just walked away and left him behind, instead she offers support as a friend but at the same time doesn't just give in and sweep everything under the rug. She becomes his anchor and their story is truly breathtaking to read. A rocky road but worth every moment....more

Kit always felt likeKit "Snow" Stone knew one thing when he enlisted when he was done he did not have plans to join his father's MC the Speed Demons. Kit always felt like an after thought and didn't feel like he would have much to contribute. Instead he focused on his career and one night when he was on leave he saw her. Kit never planned to fall for someone or build a future but everything about Kitten/Kennedy told him she was special. Kit tried to walk away initially because she had a bright future ahead and a long distance would complicate it. A second chance though has Kit beginning to build something unbelievably special with Kitten but as he duty to the war has him pushing boundaries he can't cope with handling he has to make a decision if Kitten can handle the demons swirling within Kit.
This one is a tear jerker. I loved this couple together and having read about Kit in the other books everything about his character fell into place and explained why he was the way he was. I would like to point out for this particular book Kit is known as Snow and Kennedy is Kitten. Riveting story....more

Callum is shocked when Nicole shows up in his class where he teaches, he wants her to withdraw from class but Nicole is insistent that they can maintain a professor/teacher professionalism. It isn't long before the spark between them ignites but it is a secret to everyone else they know. Someone knows though and they are intent to make sure they break apart but who is behind it and what do they really want?
Sizzling chemistry, really liked this one. Callum is a bit selfish I thought, but he is a Titan and used to having what he wanted and not really having to veer off of what he wants to do. Really liked Nicole and was loving how she pushed back on Callum. Every book I have read by this talented author has been remarkable, can't wait for more....more

The problem is Dr. Sophie Green has other patients to attend to. Atlas is not known for controlling his mouth and lets her have it.

The thing is though Sophie doesn't realize that Atlas is just acting up because he likes her. Can the rough speaking brawny biker change the mind of the brilliant doctor and get her to accept him as her man?
This was a fun one. Atlas is a jerk, pure and simple just a big jerk but there is a soft side and when he decides to go all in with Sophie, you see a soft side only for her though no one else. He is brash and at the same time loveable. Loved this one....more

I listened to this on audiobook and initially the accent is a bit heavy but it works. This story reminded me of Bridget Jones a bit especially Katy's mom. I thought the humor was spot on in this one. I liked Felix and Katy, I enjoyed seeing how they begin to realize they are not what the other assumed about them. Some really funny laugh out loud moments. Delightful road trip book.

It is an uClaire has returned home to Pismo to settle her mothers affairs after her untimely death as well as take care of her younger sister Alexis. It is an uphill battle so far though as Claire doesn't really know Alexis and has lived in Los Angeles while she grew up. She doesn't expect to meet Dr. David Clark, Alexis's dentist.
David never expected to want another relationship after his divorce, much less have the word love in his vocabulary away but something about Claire has him wanting to take another chance. As they get to know one another, neither can forget the ticking clock before Claire leaves with Alexis back to LA. Will they get their chance of happily ever after if Claire decides to stay?
I enjoyed the pacing of this book. You were pulled in right away and wanted to get to know these wonderful characters. Alexis is a broody fourteen year old and I think her character was spot on you really feel for Claire who is trying to do right by Alexis when she has no clue what she is doing. Definitely worth picking up....more

When Noah begins to help, Bijou is not certain what the feelings growing between them means. Noah is keeping something from her though will Bijou be willing to accept his secrets or will it tear them apart.

With Scott Franks helping her to achieve her goals and push through the walls she has erected around herself.
Scott had one night with Beth and he wants more, but Beth is holding secrets close and he only sees one way to help her, will it ruin everything they are building instead?
This one had some heartbreaking moments. I felt for Beth, she is a bit of an enigma at first but you begin to understand everything as the story unfolds. I really liked Scott with Beth, he is polar opposite and grapples a bit with not knowing how to not just rely on his charm to get close to Beth. Another wonderful read in the series....more
