Saving a Legend (Kavanagh Legends #2)

His family’s gym has produced a roster of mixed martial arts legends, but so far Kieran Kavanagh hasn’t followed in their footsteps. After a brawl lands him in jail, Kieran is assigned to work at a center for at-risk youth. Though given a second chance, Kieran’s simply going through the motions—until he meets one very special kid, Shea Doherty, and falls hard for her very beautiful, very grown-up big sister, Fiona. The trouble is, Kieran’s best opening moves are getting him nowhere fast. 

Fiona Doherty has too many responsibilities to fool around, especially now that she has custody of Shea. Sure, she’d love to find a devoted partner. But she won’t jeopardize her sister’s happiness—or risk revealing her tortured past—on a love-’em-and-leave-’em type of guy like Kieran . . . so it’s up to him to prove her wrong. As Fiona spends more time with Kieran, she starts to see a softer side of the reckless warrior. Now she must admit that when it comes to the possibility of real love, well . . . there’s a fighting chance.

I'm not a fan of this one. The story was good, I did like the added dynamic but the main characters just wasn't rubbing me the right way(& I wish it would have) . And the reasons were one, the heroine just kept saying she wasn't good enough for the hero and she need to focus on her life. I get & comprehend that the first 20x she said it but after a while reading it over and over again gets really annoying. Second, all the miscommunications were grating on my last nerve because there was just too many opportunity to get the truth out. And lastly, I think this particular character's book should have came out at a later date in the series. Maybe when we could get a bit more of a back story. Maybe have him get out of jail in one book and allow some of the tension to grow then proceed with his book afterwards. But even though I wasn't in love with this story like I was with the first. I am glad I read it plus it was an okay read once you got over some things. 

Looking forward to the next book in the series.
 Hope you enjoy it! 

And as always Happy Reading!!!:)

Marrying Her Rich Asian Widower: A BWAM Marriage Romance For Adults by Mary Peart

David is a recent widower, who was in an arranged marriage with a woman he didn't love. 

But respect is big in his culture. 

So when he visits a florist to collect some flowers for his wife's grave, he's surprised to find the shop owner and himself seem to hit it off. 

He reluctantly agrees to meet this woman Janice again, but feels guilty about having feelings for someone else when he wasn't a great husband to his first wife.

Janice, however, is smitten, and knows that David is the man she wants to be with. 

Will she be able to convince him she's the one he could spend his life with? 

Or will his guilt be too much for both of them to bear?

Such a great feel good and heartfelt read. Loved the characters and the bit of drama. Loved that the heroine was strong and knew exactly what she wanted and how she felt. 


So glad I read it. 
Hope you enjoy. 

And as always Happy Reading!!!:)

The Queen's Dance (The Emerging Queens #3) by Jamie K. Schmidt

Another winner for me.
I absolutely love the story. It's full of action and intrigue. Such a great addition to the series.

Despite his handicaps outside his natural habitat, water dragon Remy “Champ” Champlain fights to protect Queen Margery from those who plot to quash her damaging news reports by silencing her...forever. 

He can never have her, but he'll protect her with his life. 

After newly shifted sky dragon Queen Margery is rescued from smugglers by water dragon Remy Champlain, she debates whether to flesh out the story that nearly got her killed or embrace her royalty and build a court of protectors and studs. Sparks fly between Remy and her. He’d love her to give up her job and settle down…hopefully with him…but he can’t fly and she can’t swim, so their relationship can never get off the ground.

I'm so excited to see what happens next. 

And as always Happy Reading!!!:)

Rushing the Goal (Assassins #8) by Toni Aleo

                                    

An ARC from netgalley for an honest review. 

 I know I'm a little late with this review since life got away from me a bit. But I just wanted to say this story was amazingly amazing!!! It's funny as hell, very emotional, angsty at times and I loved every second of it.

Lucy Sinclair was no stranger to pain. 

She grew up with three younger brothers, met a bad boy, got pregnant by him, married him, and then suffered through a nasty divorce from him. Pain. That was pain. To top it off, she even had to go through the heartbreaking divorce of her parents. Through it all, she survived. All she cared about was making sure her daughter was happy and taken care of. Despite an ex-husband hell-bent on ruining her life, she fought to overcome. She’s gotten to the point that she’s okay with being just okay. She never cared about herself because she never had the time. It was Angie and only Angie she focused on, but that all changed when Benji Paxton offered to help her daughter on the ice. 

Benji knew the moment he saw Lucy, he’d never be the same. Especially when she came with the bundle of crazy that was her daughter. His heart wasn’t ready for them. After years spent sobering up and finding who he was without the alcohol, he never forgot he was being punished for not appreciating the love he had when he was younger. Because of his past, he had gotten used to being alone, a recluse, but even he had to admit it was getting old. He was lonely. Hockey wasn’t enough anymore. He wanted a family; he wanted his true love. 

And Lucy and Angie were just that. 

They were just two lost souls. 

Floating through life with no purpose. 

But finding each other gave them direction, a chance at a future. 

And had them both Rushing the Goal to be together.

I want to say Thank you to the author and netgalley for the opportunity to read this wonderful book. 

Hope you enjoy. 

And as always Happy Reading!!!:)

Blogger's Note

Hi there cyber friends,

I'm sorry I've been MIA lately. I haven't really been reading these past weeks. It seemed nothing kept my interest long enough. So I decided to take a little break and just do something else besides read. But after reading a couple of old favorites last week, I felt I finally could get back into the groove of things. Now this week, I felt like I was feeling up to writing some book reviews, I'm slowly getting my groove back ;). So you'll be getting a whole lot of reviews today. Maybe three. We'll see.

Thanks for sticking around.

And as always Happy Reading!!!
