Teasing the princess by Nana Malone

My review
⭐⭐⭐

A little too predictable for my tease, but it is just my opinion. The book carry on with the story started in the previous one. Overall it's well written, gives the characters the right path to find the real happiness. It completed the puzzle. A puzzle made by lots of ups & downs, by smiles and doubts, by meltdowns and hopes. 
But like I said no matter the enjoyable chemistry between the main characters, the story is too obvious, how is going to end.

Cover Reveal 🔥 When August ends by Penelope Ward 🔥

A Standalone Contemporary Romance Novel

NY Times, USA Today, and #1 Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author Penelope Ward

RELEASE DATE: February 25, 2019

Photo/Cover Details:
Cover designer: Letitia Hasser, RBA designs ♦ Cover Model: Joseph Cannata ♦ Cover Photography: Adam Zivo



Synopsis:

What do you do when a sexy, older man moves into your family’s summer rental?
Well, apparently, you make a fool of yourself—over and over. Things didn’t exactly get off on the right foot with Noah Cavallari. Our first encounter was embarrassing, to say the least.
But despite that, I found myself waking up every day with a newfound energy. Nothing exciting ever happened on the lake—not until Noah moved into the small boathouse on our property. He’d booked it for the entire summer…and I was still trying to figure out why.
When my mother became ill, I inherited the responsibility of making sure our guests were well taken care of. I should have been in college. Instead, I was living my best life…as a maid.
Dark, handsome, and mysterious, everything about Noah screamed forbidden.
I knew he was just passing through town for the summer.
I knew he was probably too old for me.
Yet, I was drawn to him.
Not to mention, he tried to save my life when he mistakenly thought I was drowning.
I wanted him and made no secret of it.
His own attempts to warn me away soon gave way to late-night moonlight chats by the lake. We were slowly easing into a friendship that was gearing up to explode into something I might not recover from.
Because he’s leaving at the end of the summer.
And I have no idea what I’ll do when August ends.

New Release & ARC Review 💋 Right where I want you by Jessica Hawkins 💋



My review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An office romance has always something sexy. Add in the mix an enemies to lovers part, and you'll get how hottie is this story. Sebastian & Georgina. Opposites? Not quite so much. I loved their fairplay. That push all your bottons game is fascinating. And the challenge between those two hidden a hungry and undeniable attraction. It's amazing to see them interact with all that tauting and teasing part. Provocative, sexy, and in the end so damn insatiable. 
Both characters are ambitious, Know what they want and they are determined to achieve it. No matter what it involves. A steamy payback, a turning on challenge or a tempting question.
They for sure will turn upside down each other lives, goals and priorities. Especially for good. 
Overall the whole escalation between them, from hate to love make it's trick and give the whole story the right intensity and authenticity.

Title: Right Where I Want You
Author: Jessica Hawkins
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: December 28, 2018



Blurb

There’s a thin line between love and hate . . . and it cuts right through the middle of their office.

Bad boys? They run right over good girls like Georgina Keller.

But after a confidence-shattering breakup, she’s determined not to let anyone at her new workplace push her around—least of all the brooding creative director, a “bad boy of publishing” who’s made it clear she’s enemy #1.

Sebastian Quinn's taste for fast cars, late nights, and beautiful women may have gotten him to the top of a leading New York magazine, but the reputation that made him is suddenly threatening to end his career.

Georgina can help Modern Man shed its bad reputation, but in order to do that, she’ll have to start at the top—and no amount of rakish charm or inconvenient attraction will distract her.

Because if Sebastian gets her right where he wants her, it means she’s going down.

Excerpt

At the stadium’s concession stand, I took a tall stool, putting Georgina and I at eye level since she stood. “So, why didn’t you kiss François?” I asked. “Bad breath?”
She gasped into her hand. “My breath is fine.”
“I meant his. I’m sure yours is pure relish on a hotdog.”
She made a face. “Gross.”
“I happen to love relish,” I said. “But does François?”
Each time I said François with flourish, she flinched. I didn’t care. Something about him bugged me—I just couldn’t put my finger on it.
“We didn’t kiss because you interrupted us,” she pointed out.
“So? If I were in his position, and we both wanted that kiss, I wouldn’t let anyone stop me.”
“Frank and I are clicking,” she said, scowling. “There was even mention of spending time at his summerhouse.”
“Hamptons?”
She coughed into her fist. “Boca Raton.”
The idea of Georgina spending a summer with him in Boca Raton was tragic enough that I almost smiled. I got the sense she was playing up the date. If it was so great, why wasn’t she sitting here with him? And why was I more relieved than smug about that? “Meanwhile, Justin and I will be clamming in Montauk.”
“You two should really just make it official and announce your love to the world.”
“But then I wouldn’t get to flirt with pretty girls.”
“For someone who pretends to have as much game as you,” she said, “I still haven’t seen you successfully flirt with anygirls since I’ve known you.”
I smirked. “How do you know I’m not flirting with you right now?”

Excerpt reveal 🔥 DRIFTER by Kristy Marie 🔥

Who’s ready for a sneak peek inside DRIFTER by Kristy Marie! Add it to your TBR today!

Blurb:
Bianca
Pretty things don’t distract me. In my line of work, a distraction will get you caught. Or in my case, blackmailed. But this isn’t the only time I’ve been hustled, and soon Connor Hayes will learn that men are only pawns in my end game. I don’t love. I hate. Even a pretty boy like him.
Hayes
Two wrongs don’t make a right. Except when they are five-foot-seven and hotter than my exhaust pipe. So, I blackmailed her. It was either that or turn her in. And if anyone was going to put her in handcuffs, it was going to be me. Bianca Morgan stole the only woman I’ve ever loved. It’s only fair she replace her.

Goodreads


Excerpt:
“Excuse me.”
A hip bone brushes mine, and I’m shoved to the side.
“Excuse me. Would you mind moving over?” repeats a voice that should be on the other end of a 900 number.
The sexy smile and quip die on my lips when I meet the eyes of the woman next to me. Dark hair cascades down her back like rolling hills. Against pale skin, eyes the color of sapphires stare back at me in question.
“Are you going to move over, or just stare at me like an asshole?”
An asshole?
“Is that what an asshole does?” I muse. “I was thinking there was more to the definition other than staring and being shoved over.” I catch her eye and grin. “In fact, I think I am the victim here.”
One of her dark brows arch. “Are you insinuating that I’m the asshole?”
I shrug, as if saying, “Maybe.”
Her chest bounces, and her bra is thin—thank heaven for small miracles—creating a complete and utter distraction from what she says next.
“Are you looking at my boobs?” she says with a lightness to her tone which tells me she isn’t about to pull out the mace and empty the can in my direction.
“What? No!” I lie, pulling my gaze up to her face where I’m met with an exasperated look.
“You have something on your shirt,” I argue. I reach across and swat something off her neckline, because seriously, I cannot get maced again. But instead of laughing, she jumps from my touch.
Okay. Not expecting that but people do have boundaries. Even me. Mine are just looser than most. I ignore the sudden change in her demeanor and keep with my rambling. “I wouldn’t be a friend if I let you walk around with cat fur on your shirt. The cluster of mean girls in the back would eat you alive.” I hold my hands up in a surrendering gesture. “I’m just trying to help you out.”
A slow smile replaces her harsh look.
“You’re just being a good friend and saving me from the mean posse of women that await me?” She doesn’t believe my story at all.
I widen my eyes, feigning shock. “What? You think I’m like one of these guys in here? Only here to score some pussy?”
She nods, fighting to keep her grin from splitting wide open.
“That’s exactly what I think, playboy.”
I really ham it up this time, rubbing my chest like my heart aches from her words. “And here I thought society had done away with stereotypes.”
Catch up on the rest of the series!

About Kristy

A self-proclaimed reader enthusiast, Kristy started her writing journey back in 2009, reading and writing when her daughter was napping. Establishing her place in Corporate America (because something had to pay the bills), writing became her dirty, late-night secret.
After eight long years, she released her debut novel, Commander in Briefs. It was a long road, but she can honestly say, the road less traveled had the most beautiful sights.
The only thing Kristy Marie loves as much as reading and writing is sports! Especially those that require muscles and a nice ass. Her favorite is, and always will be, baseball. She’s such a fan, that she even married her small town’s high school’s centerfielder where they still live with their three badass kids.

It had been six years since my world was turned upside down.
He exposed me to the darker side of life and I could never go back to the person I was.
I had been through more things the average person couldn’t even relate to.

If I had the chance to go back and do things differently though?
Not a chance.

I’d pick him a thousand times. A million times. For eternity.

I guess not much has changed.

My name is Alexa Ballentine, and I am still in love with my stalker.

Author Bio

Belle Aurora is thirty-something year old and was born in the land down under.
At an early age she fell in love with reading. Boredom one summer had her scouring the bookshelves at home. She stumbled across Sandra Brown’s Breath of Scandal and fell in love with romance.
Having been brought up in a loud and boisterous family of Croatian descent, she developed a natural love for dramatics and laughter. Only some years ago had she discovered a new love.
Humorous romance novels.
So many authors had opened a brand new world where she could lose herself yet feel safe and at home in their stories. Belle has been known to become a screeching banshee while anxiously awaiting their newest titles.
Belle never thought she would write. It had never interested her until recently. Friend-Zoned began to form and in February this year Belle typed the words Chapter One. And she fell in love.
With words.
With writing.
With a creative imagination she never knew she harbored.

Belle Aurora is a USA Today best-selling author.
