Mox

Life has a way a throwing curve balls at every turn. I'm Eli "Mox" Moxen and I've finally figured out what I want in life.

I’m fearless. In life, in my career, and in love. I'll face it all with strength and determination.

Amber

Just when I think I'm getting ahead, something comes along to knock me on my butt. I'm Amber Young, single mom, jaded in love, and in danger.

I refuse to fail. For my daughter and for myself, I refuse to fail at life, in my career, and in love.

For first responders like Mox, there is rarely a second chance for anything...except maybe love. This is Mox's chance to show Amber he's a man who also refuses to fail...especially when it comes to her heart.

 

Review:
Oh my, Mox is all man. I loved his big strong alpha you do it my way attitude. He was big, strong, confident, and also tender hearted. S.M. gives us background information to help those that haven't followed the series but really who wouldn't have read the previous books. S.M. is awesome. 

Mox isn't the MMA guys we are used to, but an investigator for the police department. Some shady stuff starts going on with the local banks. He is on the case from the beginning. 

Amber just wants to do right by her daughter. She got pregnant early with only her parents to help. She is trying to show her daughter that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. Along with falling for Mox, she shows her daughter how a lady should be cared for by a man. 

These two were sugary sweet with each other. They worked together along Amber had to let go of her independent strong willed attitude to allow Mox to help. She had to learn that it is okay to lean on someone for help. S.M. takes us through action packed events showing us that love always overcomes the trials given to us. 

S.M. Donaldson is a born and raised Southern girl. She grew up in a small rural town on Florida’s Gulf Coast, the kind of place where everyone knows your business before you do, especially when your Daddy is a cop and your Mom works for the school system. She married one of her best friends at the age of 20 and has one son. She is a proud military wife, has always had a soft spot for a good story, and is known to have a potty mouth. At the age of 31, she decided there was no time like the present to attempt her first book. Sam’s Choice was born and she hasn’t stopped since. If you are looking for a good, steamy, Southern set romance with true Southern dialect, she’s your girl.

Release with Review:: Stepbrother Anonymous by Aria Cole

Amazon

Love is for suckers.

That's always been Hudson Farrow's take on it. His mother has practically made a career out of saying I do, which is why he's found himself in another upstate town, preparing to watch her walk down the aisle with another yacht club asshole, nursing his cynicism with Scotch at another lonely dive bar. A sassy siren that sets his blood on fire wasn't part of the plan, neither was a new stepsister, and now Hudson's a man with a problem because he's just found out they're one in the same.


Skylar Walsh never thought the one and only man she's ever brought home would turn into anything beyond a few orgasms. Until six-foot-four, sinfully sexy, talented and tattooed sweeps her off her feet--and right between his thighs--on his custom Harley. When Hudson demands her phone number before the night's over she knows she's in for a wild ride. When she runs into him at her father's wedding the next day she realizes she may have just made the biggest mistake of her life. A dozen sheet-clenching, toe-curling, and soul-shatteringly good times in the last twenty-four-hours.


Warning: Hudson is hellbent on his Sky, and he won't let a little thing like I do come between them. Filthy-sweet tattooed hearts, perfectly placed piercings that hit all the right spots, and love and fate inked so deep no force can keep them apart. Hold onto your hearts because Stepbrother Anonymous stole mine! xo Aria

“Oh, I see what’s going on here.” He patted my ass cheek. “You’re only spontaneous with a little Scotch in your system.” He winked.
“What?” I narrowed my eyes. “No, I’m just cautious.”
“Boring.” He arched an eyebrow.
“I prefer to think before I act.”
“Predictable.”
My cheeks flamed with anger. “And I don’t normally fuck strangers.”
His eyebrows shot up, that word eliciting the shock from him I’d wanted. “But…” His fingers slid between the cheeks of my ass, hovering so close I was preparing myself for his intrusion. “Best fuck of your life, right?”
My mouth popped open just as his finger made contact with the little rosebud of my ass, swirling and stretching until the tip was breaching me. “Oh God.”
He didn’t reply, only worked his finger against my asshole, sinking it a little deeper before I was full and overtaken by need, completely aching and desperate for more. Desperate for anything.
“I dare you to tell me it wasn’t the best, Skylar.” His other hand was working at the wet flesh of my pussy. “Because last night was fucking mind-blowing for me, and I know I’m not the only one who felt it. That pussy of yours was gushing like goddamn Niagara Falls. Your lips may be able to deny it, but that sweet, juicy cunt of yours was begging for my cock. You loved how full it felt with me inside you.”

Review:

Such a fun easy short read. I loved the characters and the writing. This story has us meeting Hudson and Sky. They are quick to fall into bed. They are quick to fall for each other. They are quick to grab your heart.

Aria Cole is a thirty-something housewife who once felt bad for reading dirty books late at night, until she decided to write her own. Possessive alpha men and the sassy heroines who love them are common, along with a healthy dose of irresistible insta-love and happily ever afters so sweet your teeth may ache.

For a safe, off-the-charts HOT, and always HEA story that doesn't take a lifetime to read, get lost in an Aria Cole book!

Read:: Here Without You by Jennifer L. Allen

My first read from Jennifer Allen. It wont be my last. She had me from the first sentence. We meet Anna at the mall with her sister Ronnie, prepping for a school dance. When something tragic happens while at the mall Anna loses herself. She loses her family, her boyfriend, and disappears. She believes this is for the best. To disconnect from the issue. She finds herself working like crazy, no education, and one her own. 

Ryan is left by Anna and joins the Navy as he had planned.  He tries to move on, he continues his tours, continues serving his country. 

These two broke my heart over and over again. They go through so much in such a short time and so young in their lives. They grow up a lot over the course of a few years. This book kept me on edge, would they work through Anna's issues to start over. Would they move on together. Would they move on as friends. Lots of issues throughout the entire story.

Anna Romano had the picture perfect life. As a brilliant high school student and talented artist with a supportive family, she couldn’t imagine her life being any better. Her days were spent fantasizing about finishing high school, and dreaming of a future with her loving boyfriend.

Ryan Jacobs had his life figured out. He was enlisting in the Navy, and his high school sweetheart was applying to art school. Just a few more months and the life they’d planned together would become a reality.

On a cold February day, tragedy struck and flipped Anna’s life upside down. The bright and colorful world she once lived in turned to gray. Retreating into herself, she pushed Ryan away. She pushed everyone away. Then she ran.

Ryan was lost without Anna, but truthfully, she had been gone long before she even left. He did the only thing he could do, he went on with his life. Years later, the last thing he expected was to bump into her more than two thousand miles from home.

Love, pain, distance, and secrets.
Would their challenges tear them apart?
Or was their love strong enough to mend them forever?

Here Without You is a standalone romance with a trigger warning. A mass shooting takes place in the prologue and is referenced periodically throughout the book.
