Worth the Chance (MMA Fighter #2) by Vi Keeland

Image
Okay, besides the cover, that already is HOT, I can say that I was so totally excited for Vinny's story, you have no idea! Having met him in the first book ' Worth the Fight' I was happy we'd see more of Vinny... And boy, do we see a LOT from him! I really loved the book right from the beginning. I mean, what could be hotter than a MMA-Fighter giving class? You can bet your pretty behind that I'd be in his damn class every saturday... And whenever else he's actually giving one. No matter what it would be on... But now let's get the synopsis out of the way: Meet Liv Michaels It may have been seven years, but I'd know him anywhere. Sure, he's grown, filled out in all the right places, but his captivating blue eyes and cocky grin are exactly the way I remember. Even though I'd much rather forget. Liv Michaels is almost there. She's smart, determined and weeks away from landing the job she's dreamed about for year...

Revealing Kia - A not at all lost girl

Image
Okay, so I got this book for an honest review and I'm so super glad I did! I read book one and already loved it like nothing else... And let me tell you... No, let's start with what the book is about... The events of Claudia’s party were nothing more than a distant memory as far as Kia was concerned. She was ready to resume her life as though that night had never happened. But it’s a slippery slope keeping a secret and Kia’s about to learn just how hard when she’s faced with the truth and the consequences of her decision.  Adam Chaves was no stranger to girls wanting him. He was no stranger to breaking hearts, although never intentionally. What he didn’t understand was how Kia could undress him, touch him, burn him with her eyes and still keep him at arm’s length when it was evident how much it cost her. But what Kia didn’t realize was that he had never given up on anything in his life and he wasn’t about to start now. He would have his girl even if it meant he had to ...

I'm breathless and fearless - Jesse makes it! (by Eve Carter)

Image
The young, hot professional Motocross rider, Jesse Morrison, knows how to leave an impression. Except lately, it has been bad impressions. Frustrated and wounded, he surrounds himself with women, booze and drugs, until one day, he finds himself in a world of trouble. Kicked out by his brother, he relocates to California for the summer to help his uncle open Rookies, a local sports bar.   In Santa Monica, Jesse meets the one woman who can lead him back on the right path, the beautiful 22 year old, Niki Milani. Only problem, she is not interested. Niki has her own demons to fight. A past that left her emotional abandoned by her own blood, her father.

Blinded by a sizzling attraction, he is determined to prove to Niki that there is more to him than what appears on the surface. That he ...

The Prince of Ravens (The Exile Series #1)

Image
The Prince of Ravens has vanished.   Word spreads quickly from the Fortress of the Empress, through the dark streets of Lucien, and to the far corners of the Empire of Ages. The Children are summoned to the Fortress, and the people talk in muffled whispers, if they dare to talk at all, of secret plots and ancient prophecies. Some say the Prince was murdered, others that he was kidnapped; but underneath it all runs a darker word, one full of terrifying possibility: Exile. Rumor begets rumor, and soon the whisper of truth is lost in the swirling winds of growing fear. For the Prince of Ravens is the prophesied Lord of Death, and on his shoulders rests the fate of the Empire. Okay, so first I gotta say: No really Book-Boyfriend-material, but I really liked the book nonetheless. So now let's talk about it. It took me a long while to get into the book for different reasons. The first was that the prince has no name and for me it was kinda weird always jus...

Play with me, Ryan Hunter!

I have to say that just with the two titles of the books from the Grover Beach series you actually can express it all. "The guy sure felt a little possessive there, and he made no effort to hide that from me or anyone else. I couldn't stop myself from smiling." - Play with me by Piper Shelly Ryan Hunter's parties are legend. And tonight she's going to be there. Liza Matthews anticipates the return of her best friend and only love since kindergarten from soccer camp. But when Tony finally shows up, his mind is more focused on another girl. And worse, she's a soccer player. Fighting for the attention Liza craves, she's just a hairbreadth away from making a very stupid decision. But when extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures, she's prepared to play ball to get her man. The tryouts are hell, the first match ends bloody, and the morning after the selection party she wakes up in the worst place possible—in the arms of the captain...

"Warning! Do not look, smell, or touch. Hazardous for your libido." The Vampire Affair Part I by Vivi Anna "This man smelled so good, I wanted to lick him all over his neck and face like an ice-cream cone." - The Vampire Affair Part I by Vivi Anna Makayla Bradley, a small-time journalist, risks everything including her job to get the goods on billionaire playboy Jonathan Devane. A man who enthralled her from a single passionate kiss months prior. A man who makes her blood race and her thighs tingle. A man with dark secrets… Well, well, well, we all can guess what the dark secret is, but as of the book, you won't find out yet, I have to admit that this book is a tease, because every page you turn and want to find out everything about Jonathan. And, boy, what a man! I really enjoyed the first part of the series and I will get on to part II soon, I hope. It's fast reading and, like all good quickies, quite satisfying! *wink* And th...

After the Ashes

Image
Well, and one more cowboy since I definitely needed my fix... Christopher Braddock is bounty hunter and numb for life. At least that's what he thinks before he meets Lorelei O'Sullivan, who fiercely tries to protect her somewhat criminal brother. She knows that he maybe did something wrong, but she never expected to find how much he did her and her mother wrong. Christopher is out to get Corey and Lorelei is out to get Christopher, even if it only is to keep Corey safe. Life rarely works out the way one plans it and so soon Chris finds himself knee-deep in love with Lorelei, torn about what he's supposed to do and what he wants to do. Through many trials the couple has to go and not a few of them are made my Christopher alone. Ever since the war left him feeling more guilty than alive he swore  that he could never settle. Will Lorelei be the one to change that? I enjoyed that book from beginning to end. The way Chris struggles with his feelings just is believ...

Cowboys... Man, I love them!

Image
Well, what can I say about cowboys except... Man, I want my own cowboy! "Tall, broad shoulders and chest, muscles bulging out from under his red, rolled up sleeves, brown hair, dancing brown eyes and those darn dimples... six-foot-four-inches of Texas testosterone. The equivalent of saturated fat. Tasted good but wasn't good for you." - Her Unbridled Cowboy - Donna Michaels Kerri Masters is totally right with her thoughts about that wild cowboy she had known all her life. And when it comes to her life there is nothing much left: her restaurant was destroyed, her marriage more lie than truth and her hopes all down. Only her parents are ready to catch her, leading her to leave her California big city life and enjoy a few days away... Weeks at max. Only her family thinks a little different, wanting to keep her around even longer, because they think they know what Kerri needs: a true, stubborn cowboy.   "And, as it happened every time he was near, ...

New Hottie in Town...

"Not damaged. Beautifully damaged"  - Beautifully Damaged by L.A. Fiore Well, well, well, what can I possibly say about Trace Montgomery and Ember Walsh? Let's face it, the first reason for me to buy it was the cover... And who wouldn't want that cover?? Then it was free for me and came up in my book roulette. Boy, am I ever glad I read this books. As it is, Ember is a not-quite-wallflower, aspiring writer and sweetest soul on earth, being all but attacked in a club and to her rescue comes "an inked angel". That already got me weak on my knees.  Trace has huge anger-management-problems, huge ghosts from the past and a huge list of women he had left heartbroken. His interest in Ember though grows just as much as her interest in him and i have to say that by about forty percent I thought we were through with the story. I mean, don't we all know it? They find each other, they hesitate, they love and then they split only so that one can...

For starters...

Okay, so another blog about books... We know there are a million out there, but we figured one more wouldn't hurt! We, that's Julie and Yvi. We got that idea when we realized that with our goodreads-account we can easily trace all the books we read.. And that there you can't always say all you want to say if you don't want to spoil people. So here we are, wanting to bring it all out there. The good, the bad, the in-between. Why that weird title? Because we need to be different, we need to be creative. And that's what we tried! Plus, doesn't everyone have that one guy they wish they can just take out of a book and keep for themselves? Well... We got more than one and hey, who says we need to chose? ;-) We certainly don't! To make things more interesting, Yvi and I are playing a kind of game. We call it book-roulette. What does it mean? It just means that we 'buy' free kindle books and then we let the other one name a number fro...
