This review is for 'Lip Service', by Hope Irving:
I loved this book, it was well written and easy to read. It was nice to see the relationship grow from friends to lovers after such a unique way of meeting. There were issues to overcome, but they did it, and in the end it was just a great book.

This review is for Bishop by Em Petrova

I read this book in one sitting. It pulled me in from the very first pages and didn't let go until the last.

Bishop and Taliyah were quite the pair, and their chemistry was combustible. It didn't even matter that they went from instalust to instalove. Bishop's protective nature immediately kicked into action.

There was action in this book, as well as a sense of danger and suspense. They story flowed well and all of the parts and pieces came together in a very satisfactory manner for me.

Bishop and Taliyah did get their HEA. If I had a wish, it would be to have a little more info about how Team Blackout will work. Since this is the first book in the series, I guess we will find out going forward.

I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book received via Booksprout.

This is a fantastic collection of books by authors known and new to me and I recommend that you get comfy as once you start the only time you will want to put it down is to go to the loo! lol

Bishop: SEAL Team Blackout Em Petrova
Taliyah never expected to be a run away bride, but she is right to trust her gut however that is just the beginning of her troubles as well as Bishop's who has been hiding from the world since losing his best friend and blaming himself. You get plenty of action as well as undeniable attraction, danger and steamy times and the chance for Taliyah to clear not only her fathers name along with Bishop step back in the world and both have a happy ever after!

The Wicked Bachelors Auction by Heather Slade
Addison never expected Brix or any of his family or the wider community come to her and her Mum's aid after her Mum is injured, she also never expected the danger she and her Mum would face due to her step father. I loved how you not only get a story about community, family whether by blood or not as well as danger, twists and an attraction that once out in the open can't be contained. The only thing I didn't like was having to see what happens next!!!!!

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I read Bet You Still Think of Me by Zoe Forward.

I could feel the pain, the trying to move forward , the half of yourself missing void. The emotions were real. Colt and Kate were phenomenal characters. Their depth of the feelings they carried for each other was remarkable! Highly recommend!

Bishop by Em Petrova is is steamy, suspenseful and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Bishop and Taliyah are complex characters that are well written. The writing is descriptive and easy to get lost in.

What another great start to a Catherine Wiltcher story. I fell i love with frankie and ada almost straight away. It has that romeo and juliet vibe with a modern day gangster twist. The betrayal you feel in your gut, for frankie and ada. Both suffering at the hands of ambitious, ruthless men. I loved the link to aiden, which brought back the good feels from black skies. I can not wait to read the next book.

I read Em Petrova's story Bishop and look forward to reading the others.
A runaway bride and a mountain man, what an interesting couple they made. She's actually on the run for her life and he's military and will fight to protect her.
He had his own baggage and she's managing to lift the dark cloud hanging over him. He's doing what he's trained for in keeping them alive.
This was a wonderful action packed romance and I highly recommend it.

This review is for C.N. Marie's Make Me Want You, which is included in this anthology.
When Sutton returns to England on vacation, her father surprises her by making her CEO of the family company.  Her brother is not too happy and neither is his friend and business associate, Tate.  However, when Tate sees Sutton, he wants her.  Sutton has been jaded by love and resists. 
Opinion
This is a great story.  My only complaint was that it was a short story and I wanted more details.  Enemies to lovers is a great troupe and C.N. Marie did it up well.  Add in that Tate was Sutton's brother's friend and you've got another troupe for a different set of romance readers.  I think my most favorite part of the story was when Sutton's reasons for hesitancy came about.  Tate's reaction was priceless.
Many thanks to C.N. Marie for providing me with an ARC of this story.
