~**~ Blog Tour for The Difference Between Somehow and Someway (The Difference Trilogy #2) by Aly Martinez w/ Excerpt & Review ~**~

“Mind blowing!”—Goodreads The Difference Between Somehow and Someway, the jaw-dropping, sexy and intense second book in The Difference Trilogy from USA Today bestselling author Aly Martinez is now live! The world gave me everything. After surviving a plane crash, I was lucky to be alive. It was a harsh truth, but one that changed my perspective on how fragile life could be. So when a fellow survivor caught my eye, I owed it to myself to take a chance and follow my heart. Bowen Michaels was guarded and broody, but I saw through his well-formed armor. Much like me, he was broken and lost, but together we found our way through the darkness. For a brief moment, wrapped in his arms, it felt like maybe he was right about fate and we’d been destined to find each other all along. But when buried secrets of the past erupt, igniting us both, it was hard to believe we’d been fated for anything other than failure. The world gave me everything. And then it t

~**~ Blog Tour for Wicked Heat (Chicago Heat #1) by Ella Frank w/ Review ~**~

"He's grumpy, rude, and honestly, not that likeable at all. So why can't I stop thinking about him?” Wicked Heat, an all-new high heat and slow burn mm romance, and the first book in the Chicago Heat Series from USA Today bestselling author Ella Frank, is live now! Ryan Kind, caring, and protective. Those are the three qualities I’m looking for when it comes to my dream man. In a city as big as Chicago, you wouldn’t think he would be that hard to find, right? Wrong. Sure, my boss found a super-sexy detective and my best friend fell madly in love with the most eligible bachelor around. But the only person I’ve met recently is a broody bad boy who saved me at a sketchy pub. He’s grumpy, rude, and honestly, not that likeable at all. Hardly my “dream” guy. So why can’t I stop thinking about him? Jameson I don’t do friendships. I don’t do relationships either. The very last thing I’m looking for in life is to fall in love and live happily ever after. So sav

The world gave me everything. And then it took it all away. The Difference Between Somehow and Someway, the second book in the moving and captivating The Difference Trilogy from USA Today bestselling author Aly Martinez is now live! The world gave me everything. After surviving a plane crash, I was lucky to be alive. It was a harsh truth, but one that changed my perspective on how fragile life could be.

~**~ Release Blitz for Getting Gold (The Draak Legacy #2) by Xavier Neal w/ Review ~**~

  GETTING GOLD (The Draak Legacy #2)  by Xavier Neal     Release Date: February 24th     Genre/Tropes: PNR/Rom Com PNR    ***5 Stars*** I absolutely enjoyed Saving Silver and couldn’t wait to get my hands on the next in the series and Getting Gold did not disappoint. It was just as much fun as the first book with lots of laughs, heart, heat and a good dose of drama and has me loving these characters and this world even more. I adored Auran, Gold and Anais. They were honestly just so much fun to get to know and watch as they navigated their Fated Mating and all the crazy that comes with it. Auran can be antagonistic and has a huge appetite but has a heart of gold. Anais is feisty. I mean, she may think fate hates her (as per the synopsis) but she doesn’t let it get her down. She pulls on those shitkickers and just keeps moving forward. Their journey to their HEA was a lot of fun to experience, especially with Gold in the mix. They are so well matched, something that is apparent at

~**~ Release Blitz for How Good It Was (Excess All Areas #3) by Scarlett Cole w/ Review ~**~

  Release Date: February 22 Willow Love’s an illusion. Everyone around her is out for what they can get, except a drummer who wanted nothing more than a steamy one-night stand. Two blue lines later, she’s on the fast track to career destruction as America’s number one wholesome content creator. Saving her reputation and collaborations will require a plan and a little social media fakery. Okay, a lot. Like twelve months of pretending to build a family with the rockstar of her dreams. Luke Love’s an anchor. Responsibilities and lack of band success have kept him trapped. But now, with the band suddenly making it big and his family obligations gone, life is off the rails. Yet fame, women, and arena tours only go so far in helping keep his pain buried. Until one of the most spectacular nights of his life comes back to haunt him. She saved his career, now she wants him to help save hers. A baby. A fake relationship. And a million dollars. Is it the perfect arrangement to avoid responsibilit

~**~ ARC Review: Bound by Fate (Ravage MC Bound #9) by Ryan Michele ~**~

***5 Stars*** And we have another great addition to the Ravage MC world! Not that I’m surprised or even doubted that it would be otherwise, but it needs to be said, because this baby gave me all I’ve come to love about this series and then some. And that little twist dropped in there was perfect! Now, Dryerson and Katie. I already loved both of them, it was hard not to as they played major roles in Micah and Ensley’s journey, but getting to delve deeper into their lives and minds was awesome ~ heartbreaking and frustrating at times (even though I totally got why the convo’s in the heads went where they did) ~ but still just made me love them both even harder. As for their journey to their HEA. It was frustrating, with the push/pull going on, but when they were together they were like magnets and I loved their flow and bantering and just how good they were together and loved where they were at in the end. As I said, this was another great addition to the series. I’m all about great seco

~**~ ARC Review: The Games That Break Us (Upper Echelon Trilogy #1) by Dee Garcia ~**~

***5 Stars*** It’s been a minute since I read Birdy, but I freakin’ loved it, so when life happened for the author and the voices just weren’t playing nice and Arcangel kept getting pushed back, I was disappointed, but fully understood and knew that things would all work out in the end. And they have, in a big way. While I will admit that I didn’t go back and read Birdy, nor did I look at my review for the book, as I was reading I “remembered” things and can honestly say that I did feel like I had a better understanding of Bennie, Angel and Andres…at least at this moment in time as this is only book 1 of what is now a trilogy. But it’s hard to not love Bennie. We get to see her at her lowest, but also at her most fierce and she is truly a force. As for Angel and Andres…for me, on the surface, they are night and day, but they have their own “gray” areas that call to me for various reasons. What does that mean? Simple. I don’t have a ‘team’ other than Team Birdy, Bennie, La Jefa…take you

~**~ Release Blitz for Hunter (A VII Knights Tale) by Sapphire Knight w/ Review ~**~

    HUNTER by Sapphire Knight Release Date: February 15th  Genre/Tropes:  \Romantic Suspense/Motorcycle Romance/Dark Romance/Age Gap      AVAILABLE NOW!!!     Amazon US: https://amzn.to/33lGVTM     Amazon INTL: https://geni.us/89FsaaX   ***4 Stars*** This was a fun and quick read with a good dose of heat and a few twists and turns that I definitely didn’t see coming, but thoroughly enjoyed in the end. Hunter and Aura were an interesting pair. Both have interesting pasts and even more interesting presents and what you see on the surface doesn’t even match what is going on underneath. Their journey to their HEA was unique, in more ways than one, but I will say that I really liked them together and am happy with how everything turned out for them. I know this review is vague, but it has to be because of all the various twists and turns that pop up and to spoil any of them would be a disservice to you as a reader. But, this is a quick read with some really great supporting char

~**~ ARC Review: The Player Hater (Accidentally in Love #1) by Sara Ney ~**~

***4.5 Stars*** This was a fun read, not that I’m surprised by that, it’s just fact. I was hooked from the start and when I tried to “put it down” I couldn’t and instead found a way to read it while still doing that work thing. I ended up loving both Juliette and Davis in equal measure and I also found myself highly annoyed, but not at the main characters ~ strange, I know, but it’s the truth.And I found that I really didn’t want to say good-bye to Juliette and Davis (and am happy that I won’t have to…at least not fully). As I said already, I loved Juliette and Davis. Both are really good people, with big hearts, but where one is a bit more open to things, the other is a bit more wary. Both have their own brand of honesty and they give as good as they get. Their journey to their HEA was a fun and interesting one, considering the circumstances, but in the end, I really liked how everything worked out for them. This was a fun, light on the angst, with just enough craziness to keep things
