Tessa Bailey – Beach Kingdom Series Reading Order

By 2 Comments

<— SHELTERED HEROINE & AN EX-PRISONER ALERT!!! OMG I LOVE THIS AUTHOR & book #3 (the final book in this series) just went live!! P.S. Each one can be read as a standalone.

Jenn: …after reading back to back heart heavy reads I needed something light and sweet …-I love Tessa Bailey as she is my go to when I’m in the mood for that.

About book #1:

A man with a prison record has no place around a fresh faced college student. Tell that to Rory Prince. He should stay the hell away from Olive Cunningham. There’s one small problem, though. She won’t stop almost getting killed—and with this too-smart, too-sweet girl holding his heart in her hands, Rory is powerless to do anything but keep saving her. read more

DARK READ ALERT!!! Book #2 has just been released, and both sound INCREDIBLE and tense, and forbiddeny… and dark. YAY US!!!
<— I read this one and just one-clicked the latest release, so maybe it’s time for my next dark love story. 😉 P.S. Both can be read as standalones.

Linda: Just started Hostage last night and only 10% (started way to late) in but I’m hooked!!
Dina: I really enjoyed The Prisoner by Skye Warren and Annika Martin and I would love to see the series continued. I know you sometimes have updates from Skye Warren, and maybe you would consider asking her about this series?
Maryse: I asked Skye about a potential for book #3. She said as of right now, there are no current plans in the works however she’s “…not crossing it off the possibility list.” 😉 read more

Book Review – Outnumbered by Shay Savage

Outnumbered
<— Okay I’m a little early with this review ’cause it’s only going live in a week or so, but I was so excited by the premise, and the fact that it was a Shay Savage book (her stories are always SO unique), that I had to jump in now.

I’m usually always wanting to be strictly in the heroine’s head but I LOVE her moody, reclusive, total-loner heroes, and she’s one of my favorite authors when it comes to writing the male POV.

Yep. We’re strictly in HIS head for the entirety, and *ahem* considering the circumstances (tee hee!) I think it was for the best. 😉 read more

By 1 Comment

<— BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!!! THIS ONE IS ABOUT TO BE ON NETFLIX!!!

BB Easton’s bestselling 44 Chapters About 4 Men Series has been adapted into a new 8 episode TV series, SexLife, and is coming soon to Netflix!

Plus, it was the answer to a recent reader question, and come to find out, many in our book crew absolutely LOVE these books!!!

Nay: I HIGHLY recommend the 44 Chapters series by B.B. Easton if you’re looking for a coming of age series that’s full of non-stop excitement (sex, drugs, romance, fast cars, rock ‘n roll). The books are based on B.B. Easton’s life from 15 on (although she’s 15, these are NOT YA), and each book features the story of her life during the time she’s dating a different boyfriend. read more

Reader Question – The book about a lady, a prison warder, and an inmate…

By 4 Comments

Oh I remember reading the blurb for this one not that long ago. Within the last couple of months? I’ll do a search through my blog posts, but maybe someone can answer this one now?

Marion asks:

Hey Guys, what was the title of that book about a lady a prison warder and an inmate???? My grey cells don’t work the way they used to don’t remember the title or the author.

Anyone?

Anyone have a guess?

Maryse: Oh wait… I just re-read the question, and if it’s the one I’m thinking of, the lady was a prisoner, too? My guess is: Hold by Claire Kent (<— That’s my review). That said… I still read a blurb like this, not too long ago, so I’m off to search for it. read more
