Moonshot

Baseball isn’t supposed to be a game of life and death… 

The summer that Chase Stern entered my life, I was seventeen. The daughter of a legend, the Yankees were my family, their stadium my home, their dugout my workplace. My focus was on the game. Chase... he started out as a distraction. A distraction with sex appeal poured into every inch of his six foot frame. A distraction who played like a god and partied like a devil. 

I tried to stay away. I couldn’t. 

Then, the team started losing. 
Women started dying. 
And everything in my world broke apart.

*****************

Ty was young when she went to live with her dad and before long baseball became her world. Ty had a crush on Chase way before he ever became a Yankee but it wasn't just his looks she admired is was his skill at baseball that really did it for her. When she meets him in person he is way more than she ever thought. Chase too is taken with Ty but she's a bit young however that doesn't stop the draw he has towards her.  They have to keep their relationship under wraps but just when things are about to move forward it all blows up and Ty's life ends up taking a drastic turn. Years down the road they come face to face again and there's no denying the love is still there but circumstances are keeping them apart. Ty knows what she's has to do but it will take time and hopefully Chase will wait. Just on the edge of it all coming together another bomb goes off. When the dust settles Chase & Ty get their happily ever after. Some hot sex scenes. Fantastic ending. 

Some Sort of Love

From the outside looking in, I had it all—a career I loved, a supportive family, the Nixon metabolism but not the Nixon ears, and a salary that supported my lavish taste in designer shoes, fine wine, and lacy lingerie … but I had no one to share it with.

Until the day I ran into him—my one night stand from college with the crooked smile, let’s-get-out-of-here eyes, and dirty, dirty mouth.

Cute and cocky then, today Levi Brooks is six feet four inches of hot bearded fantasy. A sexy single dad with broad shoulders, strong hands, and a fantastically big … heart. (I mean, it’s massive. And generous. And it pumps so hard … um. Sorry. Lost my place.)

Being a good father means everything to him, but he's keeping me at a distance because he thinks I deserve someone better — a man who can give me more time, more attention, more of himself. He doesn’t believe he could ever be enough.

But he's wrong.

He’s everything. 

***********************

Jillian is focused on her career and she is sick and tired of hearing that she isn't getting any younger and she better find a man. Well she unexpectedly runs into a hot one from her past and the sparks go flying. Being a single father is what Levi is and that is his soul focus but when he runs into Jillian he thinks maybe he can make some room in his life for her too. Things are hot and the sex scenes are off the charts but Levi is holding back. Jillian understands and get's where Levi is coming from but at some point she is either in his life or she's not. Jillian lays down the gallant and now Levi needs to dig deep and let go of his guilt so he can move forward with Jillian.

Wall of Winnipeg and Me

Vanessa Mazur knows she's doing the right thing. She shouldn't feel bad for quitting. Being an assistant/housekeeper/fairy godmother to the top defensive end in the National Football Organization was always supposed to be temporary. She has plans and none of them include washing extra-large underwear longer than necessary.

But when Aiden Graves shows up at her door wanting her to come back, she's beyond shocked.

For two years, the man known as The Wall of Winnipeg couldn't find it in him to tell her good morning or congratulate her on her birthday. Now? He's asking for the unthinkable.

What do you say to the man who is used to getting everything he wants?


***************

Wow this is one intense book. Aiden is not a man that is easy to read nor is he like any of my other book boyfriends. He is quite, reserved and only loves football, which is his only focus. Vanessa is Aiden's assistant she starts out having a crush on him but over the years she may still admire his looks but she knows his wall is unpentratable. She has her own dreams and they don't involve Aiden. When she finally finds it in her to quit it doesn't take too long before Aiden is knocking on her door asking her to come back. He first wants her for his assistant but things quickly change to him needing her in a whole other way. There's not a lot of physical stimulation and honestly I don't know how a man like Aiden goes without for so long but he is such a driven man I suppose it makes sense. As things develop between Vanessa and Aiden it's not in your traditional way but we can still feel the love. I love how only Vanessa can read Aiden and know what his mood is she is so in tune with him. Finally things come to a breaking point for Vanessa and she is a mess but Aiden really does become the Off-White Knight. One hot steamy sex scene folks but the story is amazing! Fantastic ending.

Lawton

Sometimes, There's More to the Story… To every girl with a pulse, he's Lawton Rastor – billionaire bad boy, former underground fighter, and heartbreaker extraordinaire. But in his own private torment, he's the guy who lost his only chance at her – the one exceptional girl he can't quite forget. 

He's a bad boy billionaire with a terrible reputation. She's a plucky nice girl who wants to play it safe. How can Lawton, who built his empire on raw badness alone, win the heart and mind of the sweetest thing he'd ever known?

In Unbelonging, we heard the tale from Chloe Malinski, the girl-next-door who captured his heart. Now, at last, Lawton tells his side of the story. 

Fans of Unbelonging will love this humorous and heart-wrenching retelling, which includes a few surprises along the way. New readers are in for a special treat, because this is a bad-boy, good-girl story that will capture your imagination like no other.


********************

I don't really care for books being retold by the other characters POV but I did LOVE the "Unbelonging" Series and the reviews of Lawton lead me to believe the story wouldn't be the same.

This is like a whole other storyline. Yes, the events are the same but OMG reading it through Lawton's eyes's it's so very very different. Lawton has been in love with Chloe for a very long time but he didn't know who she was or how to find her. When she shows up as his next door neighbor he is besides himself with wanting to just swoop in and love her. He does control himself and takes the time to get to know her but she's hiding something and this makes Lawton on edge. He has a lot of people stab him in the back and when things are starting to point to Chloe doing the something he ends up taking things to far. Once the dust settles he knows he lost her but he is determined to win her back. There are still some things that are unanswered for him but his focus is on winner her back. Some hot, steamy sex scenes- nothing crazy. Their story continues in "Rastor" .

Cocky Bastard

He was someone who belonged in my wildest fantasies instead of a rest stop in the middle of Nebraska.

A sexy, cocky, Australian named Chance was the last person I expected to run into on my cross-country drive.

When my car broke down, we made a deal. Next thing I knew, we were traveling together, spending sexually-tense nights in hotels and taking unplanned detours. 

My ordinary road trip turned into the adventure of a lifetime. It was all fun and games until things got intense.

I wanted him, but Chance wouldn’t make a move. I thought he wanted me too, but something was holding him back. 

I wasn’t supposed to fall for the cocky bastard, especially when I knew we’d be going our separate ways.

All good things must come to an end, right? 

Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.

Fantastic ending.

Tackled

College football’s most notorious tight end wants to show her that everything’s bigger in Texas.

Cassie

I can’t stand jocks. And I don’t know the first thing about football.

So it’s just my luck that the tutoring job I take to get me through graduate school involves making sure a dumb jock passes his classes.

Now, I’m babysitting Colton King, a spoiled arrogant player who’s as famous for his bedroom antics as he is for his football skills.

The tight end with the filthy mouth tells me he’ll show me that everything’s bigger in Texas.

And heaven help me, I just might be considering it.

--

Colton

My life is one giant party, and that’s never going to change.

Not even if my coach finds me a nerdy tutor he thinks will keep me in line. 

Miss Goody Two Shoes is uptight, high-strung, and unimpressed by the fact that I’m a campus legend.

Even worse, the hot little tutor is as pure as the driven snow.

Debauching her and making her mine is the ultimate challenge. And I always rise to the occasion.

***************

I love Sports Romances and this one didn't fail me!

I love the scene when Colton & Cassie meet for the first time- Total Chaos!

There's a lot of miscommunication and some outside sources that are causing a ruckus but eventually they get back to what's important- each other. Lots of hot, steamy sex scenes. The ending was amazing!

Tap

Craft beer and the sexy men who brew it.

A faceless name. That’s all she was when I agreed to play a part in deceiving her. But then the unplanned happened.

We met. And all I wanted from her was a dirty weekend . . . until that wasn’t enough and I longed for so much more.

Lawrence Thorn suddenly means the world to me. And that’s a problem. She’s my business partner’s sister. Forbidden fruit. Pursuing her can mean trouble for me at Lovibond Brewery. But I don’t care.

I yearn for her skin against mine.

I crave her smell on my body.

I want to make her laugh and then hear her moan my name.

And she does for a brief moment in time.

But Lawrence wants more than I’m able to give. And it’s a damn shame because there’s no one on earth I want more than her.

An epic love.

A miserable ending.

Unless it’s not.

*****************

They meet sparks flew, there were lies being told & they knew it would never work. 

Tap was taken with Lawrence as soon as he laid eyes on her but she was off limits and he really did try to keep his hands off her. Lawrence for the first time in her life has felt this overwhelming desire for a man now only if he would touch her. They both knew it wouldn't work but one night is what they agreed too but that didn't happen. When they finally saw each other again the heat was still there and they were given in no matter what. Now that they have things were too good not to make a go of it. But no matter how good if both of your futures can't come together there's no point. Months of misery on both ends leads one to change their out look on what the future might hold. Now hopefully it's not to late. Some hot steamy sex scenes. Fantastic ending.

Six lessons … with the most gorgeous man … who happens to be a Dom. 

The only problem … now that I’ve experienced his brand of delectable domination will anyone else ever compare?
