Heart of Stone by: K.K. Allen is now available! Five stars!!

 

Release Date: September 27


Benson Bexley has a heart of stone.

Apparently, nothing changes.

 

When he returns home after a decade gone, I recognize him right away.

How could I forget him?

He’s the same cocky flirt who slid dirty poetry to me in art class.

With the same stone-cold stare that shields his soul from the world.

And that same sharp-edged jaw that cuts straight through a heart like a dagger.

 

Fortunately, I see right through his arrogant charm.

Even better, he doesn’t remember who I am.

And I have no intention of reminding him.

After all, it’s only a matter of time until his nomadic life takes him away again.

 

When he relentlessly pursues me, I devise an evil plan.

Play along with his dirty, poetic charm. 

And then give him a taste of his own medicine.

 

Revenge.

It’s not in my nature.

But Benson Bexley deserves nothing less.

It’s time for that heart of stone to shatter.

@tlbcgirls.read

You know when you start reading a book and it’s a cocky hero and you can’t stand him? But you do? You keep telling yourself not to like him, but something is pulling you in. Well, this my friend is Benson Bexley. I didn’t want to like the guy but I’m a sucker for an asshole with baggage, and I just knew K.K. could redeem him.

Benson is back at Camp Bexley after being gone for a decade and he’s back out not because he wants to be. The Bexley’s youngest brother is fighting to heal and all the brothers are there to help him through it. Benson figures while he's in town he might as well tune in on his craft and talent and take an art class, little does he know his teacher is someone from his past.

Brooklyn is teaching an art workshop and the one person she thought she never would see again or want to see again is in her class, but he doesn’t know who she is and she is more than willing to play a little game and take on some revenge.

"The guy has got an impenetrable heart of stone. He's already fooled me once. I won't let him fool me again."

Brooklyn and Benson have instant chemistry you can feel as you’re reading, it's in between the lines of their banter. Benson won’t give up on Brooklyn but Brooklyn won't have it, that is until Benson starts charming her all over again.

For me this book was a page-turner, I picked it up and looked down and I was already fifty percent into it. I smiled, laughed, teared up, and felt every single one of the emotions portrayed. I loved seeing Benson really come to terms with his life through art and really take the step to grow and forgive himself. Brooklyn was who and what he needed and I loved how it came through in the reading. K.K. really created a beautiful couple and I’m not ready to let them go just yet! Hopefully, we will get some more of them in the next Bexley brother book.

Crew Taylor is the picture of perfection, if gruff, grumpy, and prone to throw a punch is your type. Clearly, it’s mine or I wouldn’t be begging him to bite the bullet and claim my virginity as his own. 

 

Sure, he’s a bit of a caveman, broody and bossy and oh so naughty, but that’s sort of the point. 

He’s experienced, his heated hazel eyes promising sinful skills in seduction, and I want him to teach me all he knows. 

 

Lesson by lesson. 

Night after night. 

 

The problem? 

 

He says he won’t allow me in his bed … but I wonder what it would take to get him to play in mine a bit?

4.5 stars!

Ah, Crew and Davis! From page one this book grabbed me, our quirky heroine Davis and our temperamental hero Crew were definitely a pair you rooted for. This book has a lot of everything from heartfelt moments to laugh-out-loud moments, and sexy moments. Meagan’s writing easily flows from chapter to chapter, giving us detail but not overwhelming us.

I loved the bond and friendship Davis and Crew had, you could see their care for each other and how quickly they fell back into it after three years. This is a unique story because Crew and Davis grew up together and Crew and her older brother Memphis were always protective of her. Davis’s parents fostered Crew after his parents left and she was the girl following them around and trying to be with them. They always made sure she was looked out for. Three years have passed since Davis has seen Crew or spoken to him so when she propositions him it's the last thing he expects.

“He was Memphis’s Crew before.”
“My Crew.”
“He’s not anymore.”
“Now, he’s theirs.”

Crew turns down the proposition but Davis won’t let up, so instead, he comes up with a plan to help her get what she wants. Little does he know he won't be able to handle it and his alpha tendencies come through. Throw in close proximity and Davis and Crew have a real Dilemma!

Cover Reveal!!!

 

 

K. Bromberg has revealed the cover for Final Proposal!

Releasing: October 4, 2022

Cover Designer: Indie Sage P/R

 

Fall in love with billionaire, Fordham Sharpe, and sassy businesswoman, Ellery Sinclair, in this all-new wrong place at the right time, forced proximity, office romance by New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg.

One stormy night.

One hotel bar full of stranded travelers.

One available chair next to a charming, mysterious, and sexy-as-hell man.

There was something about him and our conversation that made me feel alive. That made me feel heard. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘢 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘦.

When our paths crossed again, I never expected the stranger to be Fordham Sharpe, one-third of the sinfully rich and ridiculously successful Sharpe International Network brothers. Nor did I expect we’d become partners—𝘧𝘪𝘧𝘵𝘺-𝘧𝘪𝘧𝘵𝘺in a hotel transformation that dreams were made of.

𝘔𝘺 𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘸𝘢𝘺.

To him, I was off limits. He was my venture partner, and we knew better than to mix business with pleasure. But we had one thing in common—we were both hiding. From our pasts. From unresolved family conflicts. From what really mattered—our hearts.

But as each day passed, our mutual attraction became harder to resist.

We agreed to the partnership to prove our worth to our families, but perhaps we’d only prove our need for something else. 𝘌𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳.

New Review! This book just went live!!

 

Royally Not ReadyRoyally Not Ready by Meghan Quinn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My Review (ARC provided)
@tlbcgirl.read
https://triciaciak.blogspot.com/
Five Stars!

My oh my Meghan sure knows how to write a HOT royal romance. Lilly wasn’t your typical princess, in fact, she didn’t even know she was one, that is until Keller found her in Miami in a bikini spraying people down. Keller is the personal secretary for the King of a small island called Torskethorpe and was sent to get Lilly and hopefully convince her to take over the throne one day.

When I see an M.Q. book I know I will be thoroughly entertained, and this book did not disappoint! Want grumpy-sunshine, enemies to lovers, alpha, and opposites attract? You get it all here with the laugh-out-loud moments that Meghan always delivers. I loved that we hadn’t seen Keller come out of his shell yet but still got the hilarity of The Informative (a little spin-off of Lady Whistledown).

Lilly was a wild child free spirit, while Keller was so serious and bottled up everything. If Lilly felt something she told you, she was confident and told you what she wanted. She was such a great character. Keller was secretive, serious, and determined, the two of them couldn’t be more opposite but their chemistry and the way they balanced each other out made them work so well.

The different things Lilly had to learn made me giggle, I loved the description of the island and the way Lilly became one with it. I honestly loved everything about this book and I won't go into too much more to avoid spoiling. This is such an entertaining read!!
