Alrighty then!! It has finally come to a close and I must say even though the story has substance and a good storyline I am happy it's over. It was a whirlwind of emotions and attitude as well as so much drama that wasn't even nesessary. I still do not care for Alice and I feel like she is a total bitch most of the time.  Mick has grown on me but still has problems expressing himself. I honestly feel that if they were real and in a real relationship they would combust in a matter of months. There is no way that relationship is going to last,  there are too many misunderstandings between them for it to work. Anyway. ...I have fished the trilogy and am excited to begin something new.  Overall I'm rating this in at three hearts.

Alright...things have become clearer since the first book. This book is dedicated to filling is in on what happened to cause the break. I am not so confused anymore I am happy to say lol. I also have to say now that I think Alice is a drama queen and Mick is a bit of a dick! She kind of overreacted to something he did then he made it worse by not talking to her and when she finally called him he didn't answer...causing the major rift between them. However I still say she's being a bit of a drama queen about the whole thing. I do understand that when she needed him he wasn't there, but he didn't hear his phone so maybe she should have called someone else to get him or just to get her. The whole situation just blew up I'd say. Overall I'd rate this one in at three hearts .

Ok....I was so confused while reading this that I almost put it down and said forget it!  I finally got through it and even though I'm still a bit confused I have to admit to more than a little curiosity as to what the heck happened in the past!! I'm not sure that I like the little note sections from Mick to Alice and visa-versa, because I believe that added to my confusion.  I can see sort of where the story is going so I'm going to rate it in at three hearts.

Starstruck (Bluewater Bay #1) by L.A. Witt


Description


Hollywood is full of dirty secrets, but Carter refuses to be Levi's.

Retired action star Levi Pritchard has made a quiet life for himself in the sleepy logging town of Bluewater Bay, Washington. But then Hollywood comes to film the wildly popular television series Wolf's Landing, and Bluewater Bay isn't so sleepy anymore. His retirement doesn't stick, either, because he's offered a part on the show-exactly the kind of complex role he'd always wanted, one that would prove him more than a glorified stuntman. The only catch? He has to stay in the closet-no matter how attractive he finds his costar.

Carter Samuels is the critically acclaimed male lead on Wolf's Landing. And now, the man who inspired him to take up acting-and made him realize he's gay-is joining the cast, and sparks fly between them instantly. But Carter is out and proud and determined to stay true to himself.

Remaining just friends is the only thing to do, as both the studio and Levi's disapproving, dysfunctional family keep reminding them. Except their friendship deepens by the day, tempting them with what they can't have but both desperately need.

I love coming out books when done right and done with a good storyline.  This was a cute story and I was glad when things turned out the way they did. 



We start out with our main character Levi and we meet the horrible man named Finn who is trying to get Levi to sign a contract to be on a show. At first he doesn't want to but he is reminded this was a part he would be proud to play. While touring the set he sees Carter and when they meet face to face later it practically seals the deal for Levi. 



Carter had been crushing on Levi since he was younger and when he lets Levi know that sparks fly. But while their friendship is just beginning Levi is basically told if he comes out his career is over. Not sure what to do he pushes Carter away and is heartbroken when Carter meets someone else. 



I personally loved how the book turned out in the end, even though I would love to see Finn put in his place. The author should add a bonus scene with that lol. Overall I'm rating this in at four hearts.

Stepbrother Billionaire by Colleen Masters


Description  


I’ve hated him since middle school. 

The effortlessly popular, lacrosse superstar, beautiful, blue-eyed nightmare Emerson Sawyer. Funny thing is, he didn’t even know I existed until our senior year, when his mom started hooking up with my dad. 

Now he torments me in the hallways, calling me “Sis” whenever he gets the chance, relishing in the fact that I can’t hide my blushing whenever he’s around. Even though I can’t stand him, my body betrays me—and he loves it. 

Emerson and his mom just moved in with us, and as if crushing on him wasn’t weird enough, now our bedrooms share a wall. 

The sexual tension keeps building between us, but I know nothing can ever happen…especially now that our parents are engaged. I try to tell myself that I hate him, that he’s wrong for me, that we’ll never be together… 

So why did I agree to play Seven Minutes in Heaven at his girlfriend’s high school party? 

And why does Emerson suddenly have my panties in his hands? 


Stepbrother Billionaire is a Stand-alone novel. It contains adult themes, harsh language, and graphic sexual content.

My Review  

The description  of this book grabbed my attention  enough for me to request  a free copy to review. I was lucky enough to receive  one and I immediately  began to read it. I loved how the story began but in the beginning  I felt like Emerson  was a dick lol. I wasn't sure he was  going to be a character  I would come to like. Now while this description  does do justice  to the beginning  of the book it doesn't even begin to touch on what the rest of the book is about. I do wish they would rewrite  that a bit, but otherwise  it's ok. 

Now on to Abby....I'm not a big fan of  her character  but I understood  her to a point, I just really wanted her to grow a backbone! There was one point when she is talking to family I was seeing red  and yelling at my Kindle lol. Then finally some backbone  came out and I almost cheered lol. She seemed to come around the last chapter though. 

Overall I enjoyed  the book, even though my connection  wasn't that great with the characters   and I am rating this book in at three hearts.

Never one for relationships in his past, Porter discovers that he was waiting all along for Ella. As their time together comes to an end, will Porter fight for the woman who stole his heart? Porter will find a way to keep her, despite the obstacles.



My Review 




I had never read any of Anie Michaels books before, when the other day I saw she was doing a takeover on a FB page I follow.  While reading about her and watching her interactions between readers and non readers I found I really liked her. When I saw she gave an opportunity for those who had not read her books to read one for free I signed up excitedly.  After receiving said book I began reading...and reading....and reading..and...well you get the picture lol. I absolutely fell in love with the characters!  




When Ella finds her boyfriend with the yoga slut I wanted to punch the crap out of that idiot, when she left I cheered her on. When she met Porter I think my panties melted a bit lol. Granted their first encounter was a little different than I was expecting, I really liked their banter. When things heat up and her sister starts saying she is wrong I was like.." Um excuse me? You know what now?" I was ready to dislike the sister but eventually I changed my mind.


I really don't want to give away too much but I have to say if you don't like major cliff hangers don't read!!! I totally was unprepared for this one however I loved the book! I will certainly be reading more by this author and I'm super excited I got the chance to read her work! I'm rating this book in at Five Hearts!!

Never a Gentleman ( The Hunt Club 5) by Heather Boyd


Description 


Victor Knight has never been able to juggle his work and love life to anyone’s satisfaction. A hardworking investment banker in London, he’s obsessed with maintaining his clients’ privacy and profits, and cannot understand why those same clients are withdrawing funds when he’s making them a good profit. When a dull evening supper at the Hunt Club ends in a blunt invitation to have sex with the Earl of Beecroft, he welcomes the distraction on the proviso they never discuss his business affairs. 

Daniel Wellham, the Earl of Beecroft, has long admired Victor Knight. He even understands and admires the banker’s preoccupation with work. Their night together is everything he hoped it would be and while he longs for permanence, his secret life as a spy means he can never reveal too much of his own history. Unfortunately, when he realizes that all is not right in Victor’s life, those promises he made to keep his nose out of the banker’s business means he cannot offer to help or explain that his latest mission might take him away forever. How can love and trust be possible when duty and responsibility prevent total honesty?
