Review: The Poet by Michael Connelly

Image
The Poet by Michael Connelly Death is reporter Jack McEvoy's beat: his calling, his obsession. But this time, death brings McEvoy the story he never wanted to write--and the mystery he desperately needs to solve. A serial killer of unprecedented savagery and cunning is at large. His targets: homicide cops, each haunted by a murder case he couldn't crack. The killer's calling card: a quotation from the works of Edgar Allan Poe. His latest victim is McEvoy's own brother. And his last...may be McEvoy himself  My Review: My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book was OK I'm hoping when I get further into the series, they get better, but we will wait and see

Review: Knot That Pucking Scent Part one by Abby Hunter

Image
Knot That Pucking Scent by Abby Hunter My beta brother and I need our big break if we're ever going to get our nutritionist business off the ground. And the gig with the Scented Scorpions is our golden ticket. The my brother lives with one of the players for three months while I create the menu and exercise regime from home. We're ready to go, until a car crash leaves my brother in hospital, and we suddenly can't pay off the loan we took out to start our business. The solution? Disguise myself as my brother. Dress up as a guy, pretend I'm not an omega, and take his place. It should have been a solid plan, until I walked into the player's house, and instantly scent-matched with him. What's even worse? He has no sense of smell, and he can't tell that he's driving me insane when he walks around his house soaking wet in a tiny towel. And, if I thought that was bad, what happens when I accidently scent match with his sworn enemy on the ice whil...

Review: Knot a Pucking Fan by Jenn Bullard

Knot a Pucking Fan by Jenn Bullard I am not the typical fan you’d expect to see at a hockey game, but I go whenever I can because it means I get to see my dad in his element. He’s the coach, and one of my favorite people. I love everything about the sport…except the players. They’re entitled and often alpha Neanderthals and I’d rather not deal with them. Sitting with my best friend, watching the game and pretending that the guys are just part of it is enough for me. My fishnet stockings, witchy outfits, and combat boots aren’t necessarily in line with being the typical fan, either. So why are members of the opposing team staring at me like I’m their next meal, and why is their PR manager forcing me into charity events with them? Knot a Pucking fan is an enemy to lovers ice hockey romance with morally gray alphas that want nothing more than to play the game they love, but are doomed to lose until they stop fighting against the omega they need. This is a standalone romance set in ...

Review: Praised by Kate Hawthorne

Image
Praised by Kate Hawthorne I’ve never been one for serious relationships, and watching my best friends fall in love isn’t going to make me change my ways. But one sexy-as-hell romp with a stranger I meet on a dare? That’s about to turn my whole life upside down. FLYNN I’ve never taken relationships seriously because I’ve never met anyone worth being serious for. I don’t love them and leave them, but no-strings-hookup might as well be my middle name. Getting dared to kiss a gorgeous stranger with eyes like the ocean and hair like a cloud sounds like a surefire way to add another name to the list of men I’ve taken to bed, or on a couch, or in the back seat of a car, but before the night is over, I’ll be proven wrong for the first time in my life. Rose Baker isn’t like any man I’ve ever met before and one kiss—one night—in a hotel with him isn’t anywhere close to enough. I want him again and I’m ready to break all my rules to get him. * * * It’s taken most of my adult life to...

Review: Knot My Pucking Problem by Ellie Exton

Image
Knot My Pucking Problem by Ellie Exton Selling your body isn't the same as selling your soul. For Nixie Alton, presenting as an omega is the worst thing that’s ever happened to her. A rough start has left her jaded, wary, and disinterested in all Alphas. Not that she has time for dating. As a broke single mom, affording her son’s hockey dreams on a shoestring budget consumes all her energy. Yet, somehow, she's managing it all... Until an Alpha with a bad attitude gets her fired, sending her life into a spiral of uncertainty. With no other options, Nixie must conceal her true identity and become a camgirl. But wait, there's more. That jerk Alpha? He’s a professional hockey player who won’t take no for an answer. Especially when his packbrother realizes she’s their scent match—the one person destined to be their perfect mate. This Mama Bear is no pushover, but bites, heats, and bonds are not easily ignored. And fate doesn't pucking play fair. My Review: My r...
