Coming Up Roses by Staci Hart ~*~*~*~*~*~ Release Blitz & Review

Everyone hates part of their job, and I hate Luke Bennet.

Coming Up Roses, an all-new must read enemies to lovers romantic comedy from Staci Hart is available now!

CUR-ebook


Everyone hates parts of their job.
Maybe it’s the paperwork. Maybe it’s the day-to-day grind. Maybe it’s that client who never knows what they want, or the guy who always cooks fish in the microwave.
But not me. I love every corner of the Longbourne Flower Shop, every flower, every petal, every stem. I love the greenhouse, and I love Mrs. Bennet, my boss. I love creating, and I love being a florist. I don’t hate anything at all.
Except for Luke Bennet.
The Bennet brothers have come home to help their mom save the flower shop, and Luke is at the helm. His smile tells a tale of lust, loose and easy. He moves with the grace of a predator, feral and wild. A thing unbridled, without rules or constraint.
When he comes home to save Longbourne, I almost can’t be mad at him.
Almost.
He doesn’t remember that night I’ll never forget. That kiss, touched with whiskey and fire. It branded me like a red-hot iron. But it meant nothing to him.
Everyone hates part of their job, and I hate Luke Bennet.
Because if I don’t, I’ll fall in love with him.

Coming Up Roses by Staci Hart 
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Roses are red...

Classic best friends crush to frienemies to hmmmm... where do we think they end?  Loved this story with hilarious outbursts in the middle of the family business financial crisis.  Check out these two as they reinvigorate the business and themselves!  And now a bit about the story...

Luke has just arrived home to help save the family business.  No one seems to be working the front of the shop, but he sees his longtime FWB in the back, head in the flower cooler, ass in the air, so he decides to go say hello properly.  Except it isn't Ivy, it's Tess.  Of course she shrieks at the sudden intrusion, water spills flowers fall and now she looks like an angry drowned lioness ready to bite his head off!  Oops!  What he doesn't remember about Tess is that one kiss, where her crush went from love to hate.  Will he be able to win her over as they save the shop?

About Staci
Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey.
From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she's not writing, she's reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.

I HEART BOOKS REVIEW 


FLIRTING WITH THE FRENEMY BY PIPPA GRANT
REVIEW BY THERESA ESTERLINE
STARS: 5

HE'S ONE HELL OF A SHRIVELPUSS!! ;)


Hilarious romantic comedy staring Wyatt, the older brother's best friend, and Ellie, his younger pesterful tomboy sister.  Fast forward several years and the older brother's best friend is now an even hotter and sexy military pilot and single dad.  And now a bit about the story...

After Ellie's boyfriend breaks up with her just before Christmas she ends up in her parents basement, where Wyatt just so happens to also be crashing.  One thing leads to another and they are quickly naked, but it goes south as fast as it heated up.  After several months the two are thrown together again, and they more towards the flames again faster than either can believe.  Only question is will the soar or burn down????

Favorite passages:
 - “Sometimes you just have to live life.”
 - “Speaking of,” she replies, just as soft, “we can’t have sex anymore. It’s too dangerous.” That’s a challenge if I ever heard one. “We’ll discuss this in bed tonight.”
 - “C’mon, Miss Captain Ellie. I’m gonna be a real man too,” and even the Blond Caveman’s girlfriend cracks up.
 - “I’m being shrivelpuss,” he informs me. “Chivalrous,” Wyatt corrects with a grin.

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

Hosed by Pippa Grant and Lili Valente *~*~*~*~* Release Boost & Review




Title: Hosed
Authors: Pippa Grant & Lili Valente
Genre: Contemporary Romance/Romantic Comedy
 Release Date: January 15, 2019



Blurb

The world's sexiest firefighter is about to get a second chance with the virgin next door…

He's bossy, arrogant, and so ridiculously hot he should come with a warning label and a pair of flame retardant coveralls.

He's also the boy who broke my heart when we were in high school.

I want to move in next door to Ryan O'Dell the way I want to be the virgin gamer geek suddenly in charge of running my sister's sex toy factory. Too bad both are written in my stars.

Yeah, I'm the world's oldest virgin code-writing nerd. 

And he's the world's hottest firefighter. 

And even though he intimidates the heck out of me, I can't seem to control my libido when he's around.

Where is my dignity? My self-respect? My panties?

Seriously…. Have you seen them? Anyone?

Maybe they're hiding in his bedroom. With my heart.

Yeah, I know. I'm hosed.  

So hosed.

Hosed is a steamy, fun romantic comedy between a firefighter and the virgin nerd next door, complete with a pet raccoon, scandalous gossip, and dildo football. (No, really.) This romance has no cheating or cliffhangers, and ends with a banging hot happily ever after.

Hosed by Pippa Grant and Lili Valente 
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fires, Dildos, and a pet raccoon, Oh My!

This is the most hilarious, stop reading to laugh out loud book I've read this year! Granted it is still early, but I would even say in the last year!!! It has a great cast of unusual characters: sexy fireman with a pet raccoon, sleazy ex husband who likes sheep too much, shy computer programmer turned sex toy factory operator, and so many more!!! I hope you enjoy this and laugh as much as I did! In addition to the humor there is also steamy sex scenes and a mystery to solve. And now a bit about the story...

Cassie's sister needed a break from life and asked her to come run her sex toy factory for her. Being the good person she is Cassie readily agreed. Even though she is extremely shy, oh and still a virgin. She's trying her best to get used to her new environment. Ryan is the hot fireman who slows up to the first fire. She remembers him from her high school crush. And here she is riding to work late on her sister's bicycle, complete with dildo handle bars! She can't stop blushing! Later after an encounter with a raccoon, George Clooney, wearing anal beads and chewing on penis suckers she learns Ryan is her neighbor. The three join forces to find the person sabotaging the factory.

Favorite passages:
- “I don’t think dildos have life goals, but I see your point.” 
- If any of the town prudes hear that we’re spreading Satan’s sex juice all over innocent children’s sno-cones, we’ll get investigated by the health department.
- I’m a code squirrel who lurks in my cozy den until my portion of the project is complete before emerging to troubleshoot with the other squirrels.
- Fear never got me anywhere I want to be.
- “I’ll never be Team Sex Toy Factory, but I’m Team Cassie,”
- She inches toward me. “Are your humans safe?” “Of course. I trained them myself.” I puff out my chest. “They’ve had all their shots and they’re so docile, I even let them sleep in my bed with me.”

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

These days you can find her writing in a tent beside the sea, drinking coconut water and thinking delightfully dirty thoughts.
