Unbeautifully (Undeniable #2) by Madeline Sheehan


Warning: This is not a story about fate or destiny. This is a story about pain, sorrow, and suffering. This is an impulsive whirlwind romance between two lovers that are not meant to be together. Theirs is not a world with sunshine and roses. Instead, their love blossoms in a secret world full of crime, violence, and death. Their story is about what can be born from nightmares. 

Danielle “Danny” West is the daughter of Deuce West, President of the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club. A sweet and beautiful girl, she loses her way, searching for things that are always out of her reach. Erik “Ripper” Jacobs is the Sergeant of Arms in the Hell’s Horsemen. Once a man who always had a smile on his face, his life takes a turn for the worst when a tragedy befalls him, leaving him scarred and broken. During a midsummer night, Danny and Ripper’s paths cross, forever changing their lives. Hastily, their lust turns to love until another tragedy forces them apart. On a journey that is marred with ugliness and chaos, Danny and Ripper must discover if their unforeseen connection can find the beauty in their world. 

This is Danny and Ripper’s story. 

Everything has beauty. Even the ugly. Especially the ugly.
Because without ugly, there would be no beauty


**MY REVIEW**
Again, let me say HOLY FUCK!
This was crazy! the entire story from start to finish. It was painful to read some parts, and hard to stomach others...Again, this book was also addicting like Undeniable. 

Undeniable (Undeniable #1) by Madeline Sheehan


Warning: This is not a "typical love story". This is an all-consuming, soul-crushing, tear-your-heart-into-pieces story. It’s intense, gritty and raw, dark and disturbing, and it doesn’t happen overnight. This is an epic love story that knows no boundaries and has no time limits. It grows and develops—with hurt, sacrifice, and heartache—over the span of a lifetime. 

Eva Fox is the princess of the Silver Demons Motorcycle Club. Growing up with bikers in the club lifestyle is all that she knows. When she’s a young girl, Eva meets the reason for her existence. Deuce West is the sexy, biker bad-ass of the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club. Like Eva, he was born and raised in the club—but that’s where the similarities end. Their first meeting is innocent, but as Eva matures into a woman, their chance reunions evolve into a fit of lust and love. Fate continues to bring them together time and time again, but their twisted journey is filled with pain, betrayal, and bloodshed that could tear them apart. Eva sees in Deuce what he cannot see in himself—a man worthy of love—and Eva spends her lifetime proving to him that her undeniable love is the one thing he can’t live without. 

This is Eva and Deuce’s story. 

It wasn’t easy. 
Nothing worth doing ever is.
And love is worth everything.



**MY REVIEW**
First let me say HOLY FUCK!!! 
This book was insane in every aspect of the word! The ups and downs that Eva and Deuce went through for SOOOO many years, the back and forth, the hurt, the love, the betrayal, everything. This story was seriously intense. There were many times i wanted to throat check Deuce for the slutty shit he was doing to Eva but i guess true love prevails no matter the heartache and betrayal. 
This book and also Unbeautifully will FOREVER change your outlook on biker books! You will always come back to this series and compare...So far nothing comes close to them! 

Stardust (Peaches Monroe) by Mimi Strong


There I was, minding my own business at Peachtree Books when this lunatic comes racing in the door and knocks me into his arms. I would have ripped him a new one, but he was kinda familiar, and hot. Like I-want-to-have-your-sexy-babies-now hot.

Turns out he looks familiar because I stare at his gorgeous face on TV every week. Yup, Dalton Deangelo. In the oh-so-firm flesh.

I let him hide out from the press for a while, then I thought he'd be on his way, and I could breathe normally again. But no. He found me interesting. He wanted to tag along to my cousin's wedding with me. I couldn't say no to that face ... or THOSE EYES. Before the night was through, he was saying sweet things, then dirty things. Very dirty things.

I try to keep my eyes wide open. I've made terrible, stupid mistakes in the past. But Dalton Deangelo's touch turns me to Jell-O.

I'm just a regular girl, and he's rich and famous with no body fat. The guy has a butler! So, why is he chasing me? And why can't I say no? And what is this sordid secret of his the reporters are trying to uncover?



**MY REVIEW**
Peaches peaches peaches, she is exactly how real women are, curvy, sassy, smart mouthed, funny and sexy. This book kicked butt! And Dalton. ahh who wouldn't fall head over heals for him! he is funny and has a bomb a** personality! And can i say HOLY CLIFFHANGER MIMI! LOL i can not wait to continue this story! Bring It on...

I Love Mimi's work, i look forward to seeing what she can surprise us all with next :-)

Love Love By Beth Michele





Gabrielle Willis is smart. She's funny. And oh yes, she's a bit klutzy. 

When Gabrielle left sunny California bound for the energy of Manhattan, she was willingly leaving the life she had known for the new life she would create. But was she really leaving something behind or was she running away?

On the outside, Gabrielle Willis has it all under control. A new life in Manhattan, a great roommate, and a good job. But she is haunted. Haunted by a memory she's tried to forget and by a family who's abandoned her. But what happens when what's on the outside is only an illusion and in perfect contradiction to what's buried deep within?

Enter Dane Rhodes. He's gorgeous, smart, and sexy as hell. Just what Gabby wants, or so she thinks. But when she meets Brad Dixon, the sweet guy with the crooked smile, he begins to make her see that the very thing she is trying to run from is the very thing that just may push her to see the light.

For You By Mimi Strong

Aubrey is a tough girl who rarely smiles. She fled her shabby past for a reason, and won't let anyone close enough to discover her secrets.

Boys with tattoos are on Aubrey's Stay Away list, but fast-talking Sawyer refuses to take a hint.

Sawyer is a kindred spirit who seems as lost in the world as Aubrey. And he's cute. Really cute.

She tries to resist, but Sawyer talks his way into one date, and then another. Things get steamy at the beach, and he does say the sweetest things. Aubrey finds herself smiling, and falling in love.

But when the truth comes out about Aubrey's past, and the police are at the door, will Sawyer stand by her side? Or is she more trouble than she's worth?

Shine Not Burn by Elle Casey



IT HAPPENED IN VEGAS.  I can't be held responsible. Things that happen there are supposed to stay there, right? Right? Yeeeah. Not so much.
Andie's just days away from tying the knot, but there's just ooooone little glitch. Apparently, she's already married. Or someone with her name is married to a guy out in Oregon of all places, and the courthouse won't issue her a marriage license until it's all cleared up. Tripping her way through cow pies and country songs to meet up with a man who gets around places on horseback is her very last idea of how to have a good time, but if she's going to get married, make partner at the firm, and have two point five kids before she's thirty-five, she needs to get to the bottom of this snafu and fix it quick ... before her fiance finds out and everything she's been working toward goes up in flames.



**MY REVIEW**
<3 <3 I really LOVED this!!! Spectacular

Axel (Corps Security #1) by Harper Sloan

Fate hasn’t always been friends with Isabelle West. In fact, fate has been a downright bitch.

Isabelle has learned the hard way how hard life can be when fate isn’t by your side. It can hand you dreams on silver platters, but it can snatch them right back and hand you nightmares. One thing Isabelle knew for sure fate was consistent with was taking away everything she ever loved.

For the last two years Isabelle has been slowly clearing the clouds of her past. Happiness is finally on the horizon. She has a thriving business, great friends, and her life back. All she has to do is jump over the last hurdle…her ex-husband.

When problems start causing her to fear her new life, and memories that are better left forgotten start rushing to the surface the last thing she needs is a ghost from her past to come knocking on her door.

Axel never thought he would look into the eyes of Isabelle West again, and he wasn’t sure he wanted to now. He’s carried his anger for so long he isn’t sure he can just turn it off, but when he is faced with protecting her and an unexpected desire to have her again, life gets a little more complicated.

How will Axel and Isabelle deal when all their cards are put on the table and everything they thought was true blows up in their faces?


**MY REVIEW**
Ahhh TRUE LOVE never dies! 

AXEL & Izzy are a perfect example of true undying love. This was a very emotional intense story, roller coaster of fear, love, trust you name it. This had me laughing, crying, hopeful, scared all of the above. 
AXEL is another fave to add to my list <3



Heartless By Catou Martine

Heather Redmond spent three years hiding from the world, her innocence lost and faith shattered.

She’s mastered the art of forgetting the past. Now she’s ready to face the future. College is on the horizon, and she’s enjoying a quiet summer in LA.

The last thing she’s prepared for is a hot guy jumping into her convertible while she's stopped at a traffic light.

Josh Hansen is Heather's opposite. He's fearless and sexy, racing through life on his motorcycle. And he always takes a leap when Fate gives him a wink. He can't resist the wide-eyed, pretty blonde who seems afraid of the world. 

Josh is determined to push Heather's boundaries, body and soul. She's afraid of her awakening feelings, and wants to take things one step at a time, but Josh isn’t used to driving in the slow lane, and soon they are speeding into passion and love.

When their darkest secrets come to light, Heather and Josh are forced to confront the painful past and either find forgiveness, or lose their love forever.





**MY REVIEW**
This book from the beginning had me hooked. It was a very emotional story, it hit on love, trust, faith you name it, these characters displayed it throughout this story. It was absolutely amazing and a read that everyone should jump into. :-)

I Surrender (I Surrender Trilogy Book 1)


Singapore has stolen a piece of Ava Thompson.

It took one life shattering moment, for her to realize, her EX is not the man she believed him to be. Returning home to Los Angeles was never going to be easy for Ava. Her heart has been shattered to smithereens and she’s convinced it’ll never heal. Or, so she thought.  Enter Jasper White.  Unbeknownst to Ava, Jasper White will change her life forever. The attraction is instantaneous which troubles Ava, who has sworn off men indefinitely. But, she is finding resisting Jasper, with his tousled bedroom hair and piercing cerulean eyes, harder than she ever imagined. And that’s because Jasper knows what he wants, and he wants Ava.  But, can Ava surrender to her feelings for the one man who compels her to love again? Because, what happens if love does not triumph all? What happens if love isn't enough?


**MY REVIEW**
5++++++++ STARS!!!!
This book was absolutely AMAZING!
I could not stop, from the very beginning i was addicted to Jasper & Ava. There were so many emotions going on in this book. You experience highs, lows, sadness, loss, love, trust, everything!

Jasper is a kind loving soul with a very troubled past, which stems from his family. Upon meeting Ava, he has learned how to love and be loved, he has let emotion into his closed off heart.

Ava, is bright, beautiful, loving and deeply hurt by her ex. Upon meeting jasper, she was able to heal that hole in her heart but still guarding her heart at the same time.

Their love is amazingly natural and it will captivate you and swallow you whole, literally from start to finish you will be addicted to jasper and his blue eyes and his sexy dimples, and Ava will keep you guessing as to how she is going to handle all her feelings she has for Jasper.
This is a wonderful story and I can not wait to continue the journey to see what happens with Jasper & Ava in Surrender To Me <3

Bravo Monica you have delivered a magnificent book I look forward to following your journey my friend.
