My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Prodigious in every way!
👑👑👑👑👑
What do you even say about a book this good? This author just keeps raising the bar. She redefines the standards for New Adult Romance with every book she writes. She pours herself into her books. At over 500 pages it is still an easy read because it's one of those stories that completely consumes your life. It is unputdownable! Once again Ashley Jade has masterfully created flawed broken characters that you can't help but fall 1000% in love with. Her writing style is extraordinary. The emotion drips off the pages. She deals with real-world issues like grief, bullying, mental health, and addiction flawlessly. She doesn't hold back at all, it's beautifully gritty, ugly, and painful, and you feel it in your soul. It's only January and Ruthless Knight is going to be the book to beat as Best Romance of 2020.

Blurb: 
Welcome to their kingdom
Cole Covington is the most popular heartbreaker at school.
Every guy wants to be him and every girl wants to screw him.
Except me.
His devastatingly good looks, golden arm, and flirty smiles don't do it for me anymore...because I know what's lurking underneath the star quarterback's gorgeous armor.
At least I thought I did.
Sometimes the most beautiful people...hide the ugliest truths.
And sometimes the only way to save someone...
is to walk beside them through hell.
Sawyer Church is the bible-thumping nerd of Royal Hearts Academy.
Girls pick on her and guys don't notice her.
Except me.
Sweet, curvy, and sarcastic, she's impossible to ignore.
No matter how much I try.
Everyone at school has her pegged as the chubby, Jesus loving geek, but unlike them—Sawyer's real and never pretends to be someone she's not.
Until I ask her to be my fake girlfriend.
Sometimes the most beautiful souls...hide the greatest pain.
And sometimes the only way to save someone...
is to fight for them.

  Excerpt: I open my mouth to speak, but Bianca beats me to it. “In Cole’s defense, he told me not to hook up with any guys. He never said anything about girls, though.” Smirking, she adds, “Plus, it’s not like he was there. He was too busy hanging out with his new girlfriend, Sawyer.” On second thought, maybe locking her up in the basement isn’t such a bad idea after all. There would be way less shit for her to stir up from down there. I can tell the exact moment Jace processes what she said because the little vein in his forehead makes an appearance. “Sawyer? As in Dylan’s best friend, Sawyer?” “Do you know any other Sawyers?” “I told you to stay away from her.” “You also told me not to fuck Mrs. Bennett, but she ended up giving me an A in history.” “Holy shit. You fucked Cortland’s mom?” Bianca exclaims. We both ignore her. “Look,” Jace starts. “Dylan doesn’t want you hanging around Sawyer. Not after what you did to her.” “I’m sorry, last I checked, I’m a big boy and Dylan doesn’t get to make decisions for me.” “Yeah,” Bianca cheers. Jace’s gaze swings her way. “Go upstairs.” “Whatever.” She fixes her stare on Oakley. “I’m gonna call *** and see if she wants to hang out.” Oakley makes a low growling sound as she scampers away. When she’s out of earshot, he says, “***** is a sweet girl, Jace. You need to put an end to that shit.” Huffing out a breath, Jace motions to me. “Yeah, after I put out the other fire.” “Me dating Sawyer isn’t a fire.” It’s a motherfucking atomic bomb.

New Release and Review

  
  CODE OF SILENCE 
by Shantel Tessier 
Release Date: January 13th 
Genre: Mafia/Arranged Marriage Romance   

Code of Silence

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was worried because this author is fairly new to me. I have only read her Dare series and it set the bar pretty high. I went in completely blind and whoa! Talk about dark and gritty mafia madness! I was pleasantly surprised. This story was really intense and action-packed right from page one. The suspense keeps you on the edge of your seat turning pages because you are not sure exactly where it's going to go. It is well written and the flow works.

The hero is a sexy mafia bad boy who makes a great ruthless bad guy. His loyalty will steal your heart. I was iffy on the h, in the beginning, I thought she was kinda a pushover and made not so smart decisions. She said it best herself "Good d*ck will make a girl stupid. I should become a lesbian." I thought that the Hero needed a stronger woman, but she definitely redeemed herself and I look forward to watching her grow. I hope that all of the female characters in the story grow as the series continues. The strength of the men demands it.


Be warned it gets pretty gruesome in a few parts. Overall it was an enjoyable read. I will be continuing with the series and recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good mafia story.

  Blurb: 
Dangerous and feared. 
 Those words describe my future husband. 
Who just so happens to also be my ex-boyfriend. It’s complicated. 

Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. 
After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. 
That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again. 

Now a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. 

I’m his.

He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. 
He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. 

No, he did it for money. 

More power. 

I’m going to be a mafia wife. And there’s only one way out of it. Death. 
 But as it turns out, someone else doesn’t want me to marry the ruthless Luca Bianchi. 
And if he has his way, I’ll see that early grave.

Dangerous Games by T. K. Leigh


Dangerous Games, an all-new contemporary Rockstar romance by USA Today Best-selling author T.K. Leigh is NOW LIVE! 

*Mind Games an introduction to Asher & Izzy's Story

is free at the time of this post.


Dangerous GamesDangerous Games by T.K. Leigh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Forbidden/Second Chance Romance
This story ties together two of my favorite genres. There have been glimpses of this budding romance throughout the series. There are many secrets revealed in this one that I didn't see coming. I have to admit I wanted to thump Izzy in the forehead on numerous occasions. As always T. K. gives you all the feels. She writes great characters with dynamic personalities. Asher is totally swoon-worthy. I am in love with the Grandmother she is seriously funny. She needs her own RomCom. The author has added interesting suspense elements to this story. The flow was a little slow in places which is why I gave it 4 stars. I recommend this book to anyone with a soft spot for musicians. I am looking forward to the next book. I think that there will be even more back story.

View all my reviews

Asher York.
Talented musician.
The voice of an angel.
The body of an Adonis.
And the man I happened to have a one-night stand with in Vegas.

No big deal, right? What happens in Vegas… Well, you know how the saying goes.
Did I mention I was once engaged to Asher’s brother?
I walked away, hoping my momentary lack of judgment would stay in the past.
I should have known it wouldn’t, not with my luck.
Now Asher York is back in my life, and that flame I hoped would flicker and die still burns bright.

But can I put my heart on the line, knowing this man has the power to obliterate it?
Can I allow myself to come between two brothers?

There’s only one way to find out.
Let the games begin…

The Dating Games Series Recommended Reading Order
Each book in this series can be enjoyed separately as each revolves around a different couple, but for the best reading experience, it is recommended to read in order.


Dating Games: A Fake Relationship Romance

My rules for being a Manhattan billionaire's fake girlfriend... No kissing. No fooling around.No falling in love. What can possibly go wrong?
Note to self: When your boyfriend dumps you on your thirtieth birthday, it's probably not the smartest idea to drink so much that you wake up in the same bed as the mysterious hottie wearing the gorgeous suit who younoticed sitting across the bar.

The only silver lining in my obvious lack of judgment is the promise of never
seeing Mr. Suit again, not in a city the size of New York.

Or so I thought, until a story I'm working on about the country's
most sought-after and elusive escort lands mein the same café as Mr. Suit.
So I do what any self-respecting woman of my age would do in my shoes...

Try to ignore him.
But he won't let me.

Instead he makes a proposition that leaves me questioning whether
I need to have my ears checked. Be his fake girlfriend for a
summer of wealth and excess in the Hamptons.

In return, he'll help me win back my boyfriend's heart.

Juvenile? You bet.
Effective? Could be.
Bad idea? Most likely.
But what do I have to lose?
Apparently, a lot more than I originally bargained for.

Let the games begin...
Dating Games is a standalone modern retelling of
Cinderella meeting her billionaire Prince Charming.
If you like a sassy heroine, a sinful hero, and a whole lot of laughs,
then you'll love this fake relationship romance.





Wicked Games: A Forbidden Romance

He's forbidden in every meaning of the word. But is that enough to keep him away?
It all started in Vegas.
Now, I know what you're thinking...
What happens in Vegas is supposed to stay in the city of sin.
Normally, I'd be inclined to agree. Until Lincoln Moore walks into my life.
On paper, we mix as well as oil and water.

He's confident. Commanding. Successful. Master of his universe.I'm a hot mess, barely holding on as I struggle to balance my job, finally finishing college, and keeping my mother sober.

But when the lights go out, nothing else matters.

Until I learn the truth of who Lincoln Moore actually is.
Sure, I probably should have put the pieces together sooner,
but our time together hasn't exactly been filled with riveting philosophical discussions
about the meaning of life, if you know what I mean.

That still doesn't diminish the fact he could lose everything by being with me.

But is that enough to keep us apart? Or is what we have worth the risk?
There's only one way to find out.


*Free at the time of this post
Eight years ago, I agreed to marry the man of my dreams.
Eight years ago, I realized I'd also given a piece of my heart to his brother.
Eight years ago, I made the decision to walk away from both men.
What choice did I have? I couldn't stay with Jessie knowing the flame I carried for Asher burned just as bright.
Maybe even brighter.
So I did the only thing I could. I walked away with no intention of seeing either man again.
Until I step into a bar in Vegas and see a much more mature, much sexier version of Asher York, a guitar strapped to him, his soulful voice reminding me of everything I've tried to forget.
But there's no forgetting Asher York. And when he looks at me with the same raw hunger, there's no denying the fire between us still burns.
Can I look past the reason I left all those years ago for one night with him?
There's only one way to find out.
Let the games begin.
