WHDK cover FINAL_1


On the northeast side of town, there is a house. The house was once magical, filled with love and joy and plans for the future. Inside its walls are many things that belong to me — my books, the china from my mother on my wedding day, the beautiful cage once home to two birds, now empty, just like me. And a man. A man who also belongs to me. A man I no longer wish to keep. A man who, no doubt, has not slept, though the sun is rising. Because the house where he waits is where I laid my head to rest every night for eight years. Until last night. No one who knows me would believe Charlie Pierce, the quiet, bookish girl who never made waves is pulling out of the driveway of a man who isn’t her husband. But they don’t know me at all. I don’t even know me.Not anymore. They say there are two sides to every story, and I suppose in most cases, that’s true. But the one I live inside of? It has three. On the northeast side of town, there is a house. But there is no longer a home.

I Heart Books Review 

What He Doesn’t Know by Kandi Steiner 
Review by Theresa Esterline 
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Loss changes everyone...

Heartbreaking tale of an assumed unrequited love, followed by bliss, happiness, and heartbreak. The story is based at a private school in a small Pennsylvania neighborhood. Mostly told from two perspectives, but a third voice does emerge. Our three characters have a lot of pain from their past to bring to this first book of the duet. Looking forward to the conclusion. And now a bit about the story...

Charlie and Cameron have fallen into a few patterns, naturally after eight years of marriage. Until a new teacher, Reece, shows up to teach music at the school Charlie teaches kindergarten. Reece also happens to be her first love, her brother's best friend, and the boy next door. But due to a five year age gap, Reece left for NYC when Charlie was only 16. Fantasy and lots of taking is all they'd ever had. Now 14 years later, at 30 and 35 age isn't the barrier, Charlie's husband is...

Favorite passages:
- Charlie Pierce, the girl who always said yes.
- The boundaries that used to exist between us had vanished, but the new ones that had taken their place were made of steel, lined with barbed wire, drenched in warning to keep clear.
- No one is the same once they lose someone they love.

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

One & Only You by Tabatha Vargo & Senna Daniels *~*~*~*~* Release Blitz & Review


Title: One & Only You
Author: Tabatha Vargo & Senna Daniels
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: March 5, 2019 Cover Design: Perfect Pear Creative Covers


One & Only You is a STANDALONE novella (45k words)  I’m walking down the aisle and toward the man I’ve loved almost all of my life. He’s wearing a black tux and a sexy grin. His sable eyes devour me, making promises of a honeymoon I’ll never forget.
Everything is beautiful. It’s the moment I’ve always dreamed of. It’s almost perfect, except, Wyatt James isn’t my groom and this isn’t my wedding. 
It’s my identical twin sister’s. 
We’ve been switching places all of our lives, but I never thought she’d take it this far. And once I say I do, there’s no going back.



 
 



He peeled back the band of my panties and slid his tongue along the skin he uncovered.
“What it is about these cotton panties you’re wearing?” he asked, again swiping his tongue across my skin.
It was then I was self-conscious about my plain panties. It was very unlike Allison to wear something so simple. As a matter of fact, her luggage, which I was unfortunately stuck with, was full of nothing but sexy lingerie and clothes that were way too revealing.
Thankfully, I was able to talk Wyatt into stopping by my parents’ place before we went to the airport. Once inside, I had put in my contacts, which I never wore because they were uncomfortable, and grabbed almost my entire drawer of panties. I reminded myself that from that moment on, I needed to wear Allison’s pretty panties and revealing clothing.
“I’m sorry,” I whimpered, hoping my plain, unattractive underwear didn’t turn him off.
His head popped up, his eyes moving over my expression with a look of confusion on his face.
“You’re sorry? Why? They’re sexy.” He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to the inside of my thigh. “Sweet and innocent. I never thought it would be a turn-on, but it’s making me feel things I’ve never felt before.”
“Like what?”
“Explosive.”
I gulped. “Is that so?”
His dark eyes blackened, his lids falling until they were heavy slits, and I could feel the lust washing over me like a tidal wave.
“Oh, definitely. And knowing you’re mine now? It’s turning me on so damn badly, but I don’t want this to be over before we even begin.”
He kissed the inside of my other thigh and then slowly began to peel my panties from my body. I lifted for him, letting him remove the final shred of fabric from my body.
Cupping them in his hands, he sniffed them and sighed. “You smell sweet. I wonder if you taste sweet, too.”
Then he shocked me once again when he leaned down and licked my slit with a quick flick of his tongue.
My body bowed off the mattress as I called out from the pleasure that spiked through me.
By the time I was coming down from the sensation of his tongue against my wet flesh, he was once again on top of me. He fitted his body between my thighs, his hard cock pressing into the crease of my inner thigh, and then he kissed me once again, giving me a tiny taste of my sweetness on his tongue.
I kissed him back, drawing his tongue into my mouth and losing my fingers in his thick hair. I was so lost in his kiss that I hadn’t noticed him lining his body up with mine. Suddenly, all the pleasure I was feeling disappeared when he pressed his large cock into me in one quick thrust.
I wasn’t upset that he had been so abrupt. After all, it wasn’t his fault he didn’t know I was a virgin.
It was mine.
I cried out, my mouth going wide with the shock of his massive intrusion, and he stiffened above me.
“Are you okay?” he asked, his brows pulled down in confusion.
Biting my bottom lip, I nodded. “Yes. It’s just been a while,” I lied. Digging my nails into his back, I pulled him closer. “Don’t stop.”
He didn’t move, but I could tell from the expression on his face he wanted to. “Are you sure? We can stop.”
Stopping was the last thing I wanted. Sure, it didn’t feel that great when he first entered me, but I knew that part was going to hurt some. I also knew it would begin to feel amazing soon. If he could make me feel good with just a finger and a flick of his tongue, I could only imagine what he could do with the rest of his body.
He leaned down and kissed my lips softly. Withdrawing until I felt only the tip of his cock inside me, he then surged forward once again. My thighs stiffened against the intrusion, and I had to remind myself to relax.
He pulled back and pushed forward again, but this time, the pain wasn’t there, and I heard myself moan a little when a tiny hint of pleasure teased my insides.
“That’s it, baby. Fuck, you feel amazing,” he said against the crook of my neck, the ends of his hair tickling my cheek.
His muscles bunched under my grasp, flexing each time his hips pumped into me. The wetness between our two bodies melded together, our sweat helping his body slide against mine with his movements.
The more he moved, the better it felt, until I found myself gripping his ass and pulling him into my body. My knees spread wider as I opened for him, wanting him deeper and harder.
“Ah God,” I breathed. “Don’t stop. Please, Wyatt, just keep going.”
He leaned back and grinned down at me, a tiny dimple winking in my direction.
“You’re close. Fuck, I can feel your pussy tightening around my cock. Are you going to come for me?”
I couldn’t possibly answer him. Not with the way he was working my body. I had never felt this kind of energy sweep over me and consume me.
“That’s it. Come for me. I want to feel you sweet and slick around me.”
My heels dug into the lush mattress, and I pushed the back of my head deep into its plushness. My body lifted, taking his thrusts and relishing in the noise of him slamming into me.
Faster.
Harder.
Wetter.
Until I felt something rising inside my center.
Higher and higher.
Deeper and deeper.
And then I closed my eyes, my body went rigid, and I climaxed for him.
I cried out, the sound echoing off the bungalow walls, as he drove into me faster, growling like a beast. With wide eyes and my mouth open, my orgasm seemed to last forever. He stared down into my face, enjoying my pleasure almost as much as I was.
“Fuck! That’s it, baby. I’m going to come. Yes. Fuck,” he roared.
He slammed into me one final time and froze, his eyes clenched tightly and his jaw hanging open.
I had done that to him. I had made him feel that pleasure. I never felt so amazing in all my life. I slid my nails down his back, riding his orgasm down with him until he relaxed and dropped on top of me.
He was heavy, but he felt fantastic. He slid his palm up my thigh, using his thumb to massage the muscle there, and then he pressed a sweet kiss to my collarbone.
I loved him, and I had given him a piece of myself that I had never given to any other person. A part of myself I didn’t plan to ever give away to anyone else. I was high on our moment together, but when he spoke again, my high instantly diminished, and I was once again left feeling broken and second rate.
“Damn, Allison. That was amazing, baby.”
Allison.
Not Addison.
Not Addy.
He wanted her.
Not me.



I HEART BOOKS REVIEW 


One & Only You by Tabatha Vargo & Senna Daniels
REVIEW BY THERESA ESTERLINE
STARS: 5

Not your typical wife swap!!


When I skimmed the blurb and cover "The wrong twin at the right time.", I wasn't thinking this is where the book would go.  A rich heir in Georgia complete with southern family traditions, no inheritance until you're married with children...  A book worm who wants to save her father.  Both rush into marriage and fly off to their honeymoon in Bora Bora.  Though I'm not convinced anyone could avoid falling in love in that tropical paradise!  And now a bit about the story...

Wyatt is marrying the wild and crazy Allison just so his grandma will leave the family business to him.  Addison is marrying her forever crush to save her father.  But they are both lying to each other.  Though in Bora Bora they grow close and even decide they love each other.  What will happen when they return to reality?  Can their tropical love last?

Favorite passages:
- “A shark is a shark.  The point is, you're the bravest woman I know.”

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

The Dysasters by P.C. and Kristin Cast *~*~*~*~* New Release




P.C. and Kristin Cast, the #1 New York Times bestselling authors of the House of Night phenomenon, return to the scene with The Dysasters — the first action-packed novel in a new paranormal fantasy series.


Adoptive daughter of a gifted scientist, Foster Stewart doesn’t live a “normal” life, (not that she’d want to). But controlling cloud formations and seeing airwaves aren’t things most eighteen year olds can do.

Small town star quarterback and quintessential dreamy boy next door, Tate “Nighthawk” Taylor has never thought much about his extra abilities. Sure, his night vision comes in handy during games, but who wouldn’t want that extra edge?

From the moment Foster and Tate collide, their worlds spiral and a deadly tornado forces them to work together, fully awakening their not-so-natural ability - the power to control air.

As they each deal with the tragic loss of loved ones, they’re caught by another devastating blow – they are the first in a group of teens genetically manipulated before birth to bond with the elements, and worse… they’re being hunted.

Now, Foster and Tate must fight to control their abilities as they learn of their past, how they came to be, who’s following them, and what tomorrow will bring… more DYSASTERS?

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.

About the Book

My love wand is on a strike.

As bad as that blows, pun unintended, it’s ten times worse for me. I’m a male escort, but not just any escort, I’m the escort. The one with a mile-long waiting list and a pristine reputation that’s very well-deserved.

Only now, I’m on hiatus. Because after years of pleasing women all over the city, my man missile decides to get finicky. And the only woman he wants? Someone I can never have—my best friend’s younger sister, the nerdy and awkwardly adorable Sienna.

She’s working at the agency this summer, keeping me organized, handling paperwork, and most importantly, keeping me on track to finish writing my book about sex and intimacy, which is due to my publisher in thirty days.

She thinks I hate her, that I don’t want her here. The truth is much more twisted. I get hard every time she walks into my office. Her wide blue eyes and pouty mouth drive me wild with desire, and if she stays, I’m not sure how much longer I can stay away from her.

Little Miss Overachiever says she’s here to help? Fine. I’m going to put her nerdy, curvy tush to work.
