Kiss Me, Cowboy by Diana Palmer

Description:

The Rancher’s Wedding

When a tough Colorado rancher who’s in the red meets up with a screenwriter-turned-waitress dogged by scandal, they put their talents—and their hearts—together. But will front page news put a damper on the sparks flying between them?

 

Colorado Cowboy

Fleeing her mother’s killer, Esther Marist ends up at a rugged stranger’s cabin. A wildlife rehabilitator with a menagerie that includes an elderly wolf, Matthews isn’t the type to turn any creature away. As Esther heals, she realizes how much danger she’s brought to his door—and how far he’ll go to protect her.

        This book is a two in one deal. Two stories, one book, but I am disappointed by the fact that the second story in this book was recycled from her previous book which was release last year with two other authors. I guess she wanted to just have her name on the book instead of the collection of novellas she did with the others. I liked the wolf featured in both. I wasnt a fan of JL in the first one. I thought he was too constrained and unforgiving. This would be a great afternoon read and more of a quick intro to the author.

Thank you to the publisher/author and netgalley for the early read

And as always Happy Reading!!!

Deceived by the Gargoyles (Monstrous Matches #2) by Lillian Lark

Description:

 A curvy librarian looking to start a family, a clan of gargoyles, and the deception that starts it all.

My family has always found me lacking. From the way I dress, how I look, to the type of magic I have. My family name is full of pomp and prestige, and I want nothing to do with it.

I’m a witch that knows how to set a goal and I have one in mind.

I want a real family.

Dating is a travesty. All the suitors I meet are looking for a connection to the family name I left behind. I need help.

Enter the matchmaker. It seems too good to be true that I can give her the list of traits I want in a partner and have my deepest desire answered, but I’m out of options.

Love comes along in the most unexpected ways.

From the very first moment I meet Elliot Bramblewick, I have hope. But he’s tricky.

I’m not expecting him to be hiding two other mates. Mates who are as alarmed and intrigued by my presence as I am by theirs.

He thinks I’m a perfect fit for them, but can I open my heart and discard my list long enough to see if this is the family I’m looking for?

None of my lists and plans prepared me for being courted by three gargoyles.

 

    This was a entertaining read. I was expecting much so it was also surprising. Apparently I'm in reverse harem mood this month because a lot books this month have existed in the same type of universe. I will say compared to the first book in this series,  this veered off I would not say in a bad way, but definitely surprising. Its filled with funny and flirty dialogue. There's action and suspense. A lot of "will they, won't they" moments. Also has a insecure heroine who grew up privileged but on the plus side of life, so her fears of whether she would be wanted for herself even in the face of an already active attraction helps build the romantic side of the story. I really liked her friend/ secondary female character in the story and can't wait to see if she will get her own little romance. 

Hope you enjoy it.

And as always Happy Reading!!

Queenie & the Krakens: The Krakens Motorcycle Club: A Standalone Reverse Harem Romance byAleera Anaya Ceres

 

Description:

 Naomi Queen swore to herself she’d never get involved with criminals. She didn’t want any part of the world that raised her because she knew the trouble the malicious underground could bring. But all that changes when she witnesses a murder between a gang of mermen shifters.

Swept into the maelstrom of the paranormal criminal underbelly wasn’t exactly high on her to-do list. Neither was being hunted by the murderous gang that called themselves the Rogue Waves.

With her life in danger, Naomi has no other choice but to accept protection from the deadly MC’s rivals. But hiding at the Kraken Motorcycle Club’s compound was the last thing she wanted. These mermen are dangerous, violent, and sexy. Everything she’s tried to avoid. They’ll chew her up and spit her out like the vicious sharks that they are… or they’ll try to.

Naomi has a few tricks of her own up her sleeve, and if the Krakens thought she’d be a meek little witness, they have another thing coming. She can be as ruthless as the monster whose name they carry, and by the time she wreaks havoc upon their lives—and their hearts—they won’t even know what hit them.

   Such a good read. Queenie is exactly the type heroine I love in these type of books. Witty and strong-willed, this book is filled with action from the get go. I will say it did seem a teensy tiny bit rushed other than that it's a really good book.

hope you enjoy it too.

And as always Happy Reading!!!
