About Junk Mail

It all started with a sexy selfie. Texted to the wrong number. Oops.  Not my finest moment—but I have nothing to be ashamed of. She thought I was no better, and I quote, than the knuckle-dragging douche-bags she was never dating again. It was a stupid dare from a girl I’d met online, but since she’d given me a fake number, I didn’t feel bad that my interests were suddenly focused elsewhere—on the fiery and sharp-tongued, Peyton that I found myself sparring with over text for the rest of the evening. The following day, my case of mistaken identity came back to bite me in the banana. When I strolled into the office, I was introduced to Peyton as the new client I needed to win over. The Peyton , in case you're not tracking. And let’s just say she had my full attention. Brains? Check. Beauty? Oh yeah. And the best part? She hated me on sight. Dear God, do I love a challenge. Let the games begin.

Junk Mail by Kendall Ryan
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The best way to meet someone new! ;)

Peyton and Josh star in this funny romantic comedy based in New York City.  Complete with a senior contingent and wine!! And now a bit about the story...

Trying to get laid has never been so easy.  Meet on a dating site.  Send some naked pictures.  Easy, right? Until you send that pic to the wrong number!! A number you start chatting with anyway.  Belonging to who you find out the next day is your potential new business partner and she's beautiful.  But you gotta keep it professional...

Favorite passages:
- Exhibit A is the monster in my pants demanding to be fed, so I’m willing to make some adjustments, both literally and figuratively.
- Nuts? Seriously, Hanson? Of all the words in the English language, you choose nuts? But hey, on the plus side, she hasn’t seen the boys, just their leader.
- And I can’t block the embarrassing thought that if Gram knew, she would be so proud.
- It figures that some dude over twice my age is getting more consistent action than I am.
- “The only men I want to talk to are Ben and Jerry.”

Note: I was given a free copy and voluntarily chose to review this book.

Baby Mine (Hunter & Lennon #1) by Kennedy Fox *~*~*~*~* Release Blitz & Review










I saw her first.
Blonde. Gorgeous. Feisty.
I was smitten. 

But it didn’t matter because she chose him and he was my best friend and roommate. I’d never be able to compete with that, so I pushed her away instead. It was easy when she lived hours away, and I didn’t have to see her every day, but then she moved in with us. 
Now, I’m screwed.

To her singing in the shower every morning, dancing in the kitchen while she makes coffee, and doing yoga in our living room, I can’t stop thinking about her in all the wrong ways. She’s not mine and never will be, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting to push her against a wall and claim her mouth.

She’s constantly on me for making messes, bringing chicks home every weekend, and being a smartass when their PDA gets on my nerves. Considering neither of them know how I feel, it’s not fair for the way I act toward them. I should move out so I can get over her for good; however, the selfish part of me can’t let go. 

But then the unthinkable happens... 
When my best friend dies in a motorcycle accident, the two of us are left to grieve our loss together. Instead of pushing her away, I pull her closer. 

Just as we come to terms with our new reality, she finds out she’s pregnant with his baby. 
And I’m left to make the hardest decision of my life...

Baby Mine (Hunter & Lennon #1) by Kennedy Fox
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

He's decided it has to be hate at second sight!

First in the Hunter and Lennon duet.  There is love, laughter, desire, hatred, grief, longing, you name it. Based in California, surrounding four friends and their lives after college.  Being a duet, there is a bit of a cliffhanger and just based on the series name you know things are going to happen, the surprise will be in the when and how! And now a bit about the story...

Hunter sees Lennon first, as she comes up the bar where he is slinging drinks. His three friends are there with him, will kind of, they are drinking, not working.  Lennon comes up to the bar a few times, but they are slammed. Instead of asking for her number, he tells her to come back at closing. But she never does. He's bummed because he felt something, even with their brief dialogs and barely hints of a touch. Then the next time he sees her, she's just in a shirt getting something from him fridge. She picked his best friend and roommate Brandon. Now he can never have her...oh well, she said she was from out of town.  He'll never have to see her after sporting break, right?

Favorite passages:
- “I don’t know how you’re patient enough to teach,” she tells me. “I love kids, but their parents can be devils.”
 - His guests prancing around in their underwear is one thing, but allowing her to wear my clothes is pushing it too damn far.
- Today was the Monday-est Tuesday ever, and I’m over it.
- “I’ll be back to ice cubes and oxygen on Monday.”

Note: I was given a free copy and voluntarily chose to review this book.

The Perfect First by Maya Hughes *~*~*~*~* Chapter Reveal & Giveaway





Title: The Perfect First
Author: Maya Hughes
Genre: New Adult Romance
Cover Design: Najla Qamber, Qamber Designs
Release Date: April 25, 2019

Chapter Reveal Sneak Peek! And giveaway down below!
“Very nice to meet you, Reece. I’m Persephone Alexander. I have a few questions we can get started with, if you don’t mind.”
“The quicker we get started, the quicker we can finish.” He looked around like he would have rather been anywhere but there.
Those giddy bubbles soured in my stomach. A server came by with the bottled waters I’d ordered. I arranged them in a neat pyramid at the end of the table.
“Would you like a water?” I held one out to him.
He eyed me like I was offering him an illicit substance but then reached out. His fingers brushed against the backs of mine and shooting sparks of excitement rushed through me. Pulling the bottle out of my grasp, he cracked it open and took a gulp.
My cheeks heated and I glanced down at my cards, flipping the ones at the front to the back.
“I have a notecard with some information for you to fill out.”
Sliding it across the table, I held out a pen for him. He took it from me, careful that our fingers didn’t touch this time. I’d have been lying if I’d said I didn’t want another touch, just to test whether or not that first one had been something more than static electricity. He filled out the biographical data on the card and handed it back to me.
“Let’s get started.” Just rip the Band-Aid off. Clearing my throat, I tapped the cards on the table. A few heads turned in our direction at the sharp, rapping sound. “When were you last tested for STDs?”

Author Bio
Maya Hughes can often be found sneaking in another chapter while hiding in the bathroom from her kids! :-) I’m a romance writer who loves taking inspiration from everyday life, namely my husband and biggest fan. Inspiration also strikes when I hear a song, meet someone new or daydream while at soccer practice.
I’m the mom of three little ones, the wife to an amazing husband and also work full time. Some of my favorite things are cinnamon rolls, white wine, laughing until I can’t breathe and traveling with my family.

JUNK MAIL

By Kendall Ryan

Release Day: April 23






About the Book

It all started with a sexy selfie.

Texted to the wrong number.

Oops.

Not my finest moment—but I have nothing to be ashamed of.

She thought I was no better, and I quote, than the knuckle-dragging douche-bags she was never dating again.

It was a stupid dare from a girl I’d met online, but since she’d given me a fake number, I didn’t feel bad that my interests were suddenly focused elsewhere—on the fiery and sharp-tongued, Peyton that I found myself sparring with over text for the rest of the evening.

The following day, my case of mistaken identity came back to bite me in the banana.

When I strolled into the office, I was introduced to Peyton as the new client I needed to win over. The Peyton , in case you're not tracking.

And let’s just say she had my full attention.
Brains? Check.

Beauty? Oh yeah.

And the best part? She hated me on sight.

Dear God, do I love a challenge.


Let the games begin.

Excerpt
“Let’s get down to the nuts and bolts of this, shall we?”
Nuts?
Seriously, Hanson? Of all the words in the English language, you choose nuts?
But hey, on the plus side, she hasn’t seen the boys, just their leader.
Even so, I need to keep this meeting above the belt, including my own damn thoughts. I offer Peyton another apologetic smile. Time to get this deal back on track.
“Want to tell me more about your company?”
“I do. I really do.”
Her tone shifts instantly when she mentions her business, making me even more keen to hear her pitch.
I smile. A perfect, professional smile, as I cross my legs and fold my hands in my lap. I’m a motherfucking gentleman, not a junk-shot-sending caveman. “I want to hear all about it, Peyton.”
The only way to get past this mixup is to focus on business.
Not on her pretty face.
Not on those gorgeous eyes.
And definitely not on that dark hair I want to wrap around my fist and yank on it hard.
Four fucking months . . . that’s what’s wrong with my libido. It’s not operating in its normal overdrive. No, today, it’s at fucking warp speed. This is what happens when your own hand becomes your closest companion.

BLACKOUT: A Romance Anthology *~*~*~*~*~* Uncovered & Reviews


Surprise! Blackout has been uncovered! 
THIRTEEN brand new covers for you to swoon over! Only $1.99 each! COLLECT THEM ALL NOW -- http://bit.ly/BOSeries



What happens when the lights go out in the city that never sleeps? Games of chance, unexpected situations, and hours of sin!
Thirteen bestselling and award-winning authors are turning up the heat in an anthology featuring brand-new show-stopping stories set in Las Vegas. Roll the dice and get ready to feel the heat! 

 Night Games by T.K. Leigh: Note to self: Never agree to play an innocent dice game during a blackout in Vegas. I should have known it wouldn’t remain innocent, not in the city of sin. 

 Night & Day by Bethany Lopez: One explosive weekend together nearly ruined them. But, there's no way Simone and Micah can ignore their chemistry when they're alone in the dark. 

 Close Encounter by Stephanie St. Klaire: The day started with a quick screw, a couple of quirky two-bit cons and ended with a diabolical serial killer. What do you do when the lights go out? Run. 

 Absolutely Mine by Terri E. Laine: I made a promise to stay away from my best friend’s little sister. But it’s Vegas and that’s one promise I’m probably going to break. 

 Honeymoon Hideaway by Cary Hart: What’s worse than being locked in room with a vibrating bed and your sworn enemy? Waking up next to him… naked! Did I mention he’s also my boss? Oops. 

 The Do-Over by Christi Barth: The best way to move on after being dumped? A hot fling. An even better way? Revenge sex and the chance to turn the tables on the guy who dumped you... 

 Just Us by J.H. Croix: Ellie asks me to promise her one thing. We can’t tell her brother about us. Small problem though. One night will never be enough. 

 Dirty Thoughts by C.A. Harms: He was the crush I never thought I’d see again. Yet here we were in Vegas, during a total blackout. I figure why not explore all the possibilities, or more like let him explore me? 

 Hard Luck by K.A. Ware: Ellis James is my kryptonite, the only person who could drag me back to Vegas after I promised myself I was done with that life. I'd bleed for her, I'd die for her, but can I save her? 

 Becoming His by K.I. Lynn: When I slammed into Hollywood heartthrob Reid Gallagher, I never imagined it would turn into a first date I’d never forget. After all, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas...right? 

 Going Down by Lisa Shelby: She’s the only person I’ve ever loved and I’m the last person she wants to see. She’d hoped to avoid me as much as possible in Vegas, but when we get stuck alone in an elevator, not even she can deny that our chemistry still runs hot. 

 Blind Faith by Lauren Runow: I never expected to be locked out of my room basically naked in a total blackout. Thinking that would be the biggest shock of my night was my first mistake. 

 Free Bird by Leddy Harper: She’s a showgirl who wants out of Vegas. He’s a rugby player who wants a bit of company. Can they both get what they want?

Night Games by TK Leigh
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Bachelorette Party from Hell could be another title!  Of course that doesn't sound as sexy, plus there are all those odd encounters with the hot stranger making the never ending party weekend worth it!  That is until their flight is canceled, ugh! Another day in Vegas - can this get any worse...

Favorite Quotes:
 - But he won’t do that. He’s the tortoise, not the hare. This is a marathon, not a sprint. And I have a feeling he wants this race to last all night long.
 - “A magician never reveals his secrets.” He winks, a hint of playfulness amidst the sexual tension.



Night & Day by Bethany Lopez
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Funny and sexy story!  What happens when a former stripper and a bartender are trapped in the liquor storage?  Sounds like the start of a bad joke right, but trust me - this is a good one!  At least a good story, not really a joke ;) 

Favorite Quotes:
 - Yes, I talked to my cat. I’d been doing it so long I didn’t even find it strange. It only got weird when I paused for her to answer me back.
 - “Time to stop being a freakin’ chicken, Simone. You are a bad-ass bitch who doesn’t take shit from men three times your size.”



Note: I was given a free copy and voluntarily chose to review this book.

America's Geekheart by Pippa Grant *~*~*~*~*~* Release Boost & Review




Title: America's Geekheart
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Romantic Comedy
 Release Date: April 5, 2019
Blurb
Remember that time you accidentally sexted your in-laws?

Yeah. I just did that. Except worse. Now my million social media followers are reading and sharing the rude, smartass message I meant to send privately to my little sister...and I’m officially public enemy number one.

I’m Beck Ryder. Former boy bander. Underwear model. Fashion mogul. And I just buried my entire leg in my mouth—not just my foot—modern internet style, and publicly insulted my sister’s neighbor.

Sarah Dempsey.

Also known as the woman of my dreams, who loves geeky TV shows, baseball, and giraffes, who’s just as turned on by food as I am, and who has a huge secret that I didn’t see coming.

Now it's time to grovel and apologize publicly on social media and hope that those same followers who helped start the raging shitstorm will help calm the waters.

Because Sarah doesn’t want the spotlight. For very good reasons that I can’t tell you right now and trying to convince her to be my fake girlfriend to fix this mess and make me look like less of a jackass is worse than taking a kick to the nuts by Jackie Chan.

And I thought modeling underwear made me feel naked.

Trying to start a relationship in the era of the twitterazzi isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.

America’s Geekheart is a rockin’ fun romantic comedy featuring a billionaire fashion mogul who got his start modeling underwear, the geeky girl next door with a secret the size of California, and more superstitions and secrets than you can shake a baseball bat at. It stands alone with no cheating or cliffhangers.

America's Geekheart by Pippa Grant 
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Type message, read message (twice) and post!

When you are building something you always, measure twice, cut once -- but with online typing, we are all so quick to just send!!  Yet another hilarious and lovable couple.  Pippa doesn't disappoint!  Our heroine's a geek and the hero's an underwear model.  What could they have in common?  Turns out lots!  Of course they never would have met if it hadn't been for his lack of social media skills!  And now a bit about the story...

Sarah, an environmental engineer, gets a very public tweet about her uterus and lack of kids from Beck, a sexy underwear model.  Turns out it was all a mistake, but the world isn't sure they believe it.  The problem is, Beck was about to enter into a partnership to benefit the kids, but now his partner isn't sure it is a good idea.  He and his team pull out all the stops, and cause a few unexpected surprises.   I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!!

Favorite Passages:
 - "Didn't recognize you with your clothes on."
 - "You're not going to keep a man like Beck Ryder happy with hair like that for long."  "He likes picking the bugs out of it."
 - "Oh my god, it sounded like you were summoning a popcorn demon."
 - "Well, yeah.  Nepotism's important."
 - But when she beams at me, I get the feeling I could leap onto the table and do the MC Hammer dance naked and she'd think I was still just utterly perfect.

Note: I was given a free copy and voluntarily chose to review this book.
