Sassy, smart, and sexy, former supermodel-turned-tech guru Rubi Russo has it all—looks, money, confidence and freedom. Her life is a whirlwind of fast cars and fleeting affairs—and she likes it that way. With a past like Rubi’s, forever isn’t part of her vocabulary. So when studly Renegade stuntman Wes Lawson wants to take their friendship to the next level, she’s all out.
Raised a simple country-boy, Wes knows the brazen Rubi isn’t his type. But after spending time with her, he discovers she’s everything he’s ever wanted in a woman. To win her wild rebel heart, he’ll have to prove he sees behind her smokescreen to all the goodness she tries to hide. Then it’s just a matter of crushing her fears, shattering her barriers, and convincing her that loving him is everything she’s been missing in her life, too.
Piece of cake.(less)

Review:
After loving the first book in this series Reckless i jumped at the chance to review Rebel. Rebel is the perfect follow up. The renegades series is an amazing series that I highly recommend.
Rebel follows the story of Ruby and Wes Best friends of the leads from Reckless. Both have their own issues but that doesn't stop them scorching the sheets when they are together. I love that Wes didn't give up on Ruby and that Ruby didn't give up on Wes either.
This was a fabulous read. Overall I give it 5 out of 5 Can't wait to see whose book is next.

Beg Me to Slay by Lisa Kessler
He’ll slay her demons, but it may cost her heart…
Four years ago Tegan Ashton was attacked. Determined never to be a victim again, she devotes her life to martial arts and self-defense. When her assailant returns to finish what he started, only one person can help her.
Gabe is a private investigator by day and demon slayer by night. After losing loved ones, he vows to defend people from a threat they don’t realize exists.
The relationship is supposed to be strictly business, but fighting demons together stirs up emotions they never expected. Turns out demon slaying is a breeze compared to facing their scarred pasts and even worse - hearts.
Ashes by Sarah Gilman
Journalist Ambrosia Pellerin accepts an assignment involving the legendary phoenix, expecting, if nothing else, a little entertainment. Instead, she winds up pregnant—by a surprisingly human-looking firebird, Reece Bennu.
As the Phoenix prince, Reece is next in line to the throne and expected to marry a purebred royal. A common human such as Ambrosia is not in the cards. He swears, though, he’ll never be an absentee father.
As Ambrosia’s due date grows closer, so do the soon-to-be parents. But will their tentative love survive the prejudice of Reece’s grandmother, who will stop at nothing to tear the two apart?

Review:
Though I love a good paranormal book i don't get to read them as often as i'd like but i am extremely glad i got to read this one.
Having a Phoenix as the shifter Hero was pure genius on Ms Gilmans part and i loved the world that she built. I also loved the way Ambrosia didn't just roll over and do his bidding but still let him have control at the same time. Reece of course was totally swoon worthy and caring at the same time.
My only one complaint is this book finished too soon i'd reached the end before i even realised it.
If you are looking for a great book outside the normal paranormal genres then this is for you.
Overall i give this 4 out of 5

Review: Out of Time by Jen Mclaughlin @DianeAlberts
Out
of Time by Jen McLaughlin
December 2013
BOOK SUMMARY:
Desperate to keep
him...
I've finally gotten
everything I ever wanted: love, freedom, happiness, and, most importantly,
Finn. Our love is everything I expected it to be and more. We've finally found
each other, but the world seems determined to tear us apart. We thought my
father was the only obstacle between us, but now it's the military. With Finn’s
departure looming, we’re squeezing in every moment together before we run out
of time.
Trying to make
every moment count…
Being Carrie’s
bodyguard was one thing. Being her boyfriend is another. Every day she’s mine
is a day the sun shines in my life. Yet our time together is running out. Her
father will never think a tattooed Marine will be good enough, so I’ll do
whatever it takes to be worthy of her love. But the road will take me away from
the girl who makes me feel alive--the girl I can't live without.
Time only gets us
so far...

Review:
After reading Out of Line and loving it I jumped at the chance to review Out of Time. For me sequels as usually hit or miss. In this case it was an absolute hit. Totally knocked it out of the park.
Out of Time picks up right where Out of Line finishes. And although the book only covers a relatively short time period Ms Mclaughlin managed to pack in a truck load of story. I want to shout and rave and tell you about all the wonderful things that happen in this book but i don't want to spoil the experience for anyone.
I highly recommend this book and cannot wait for the next in the series.
Overall I give this 5 out of 5

books for you to Indulge in. Get those eReaders out and enjoy!
December
An Entangled Christmas Classic …
Jackson Pierce didn’t make his fortune entertaining
every half-cocked idea, especially one involving diaper changes. Not even the
cute brunette who links him to the baby in her arms can crack his icy heart.A
baby on the doorstep is the least of Hannah Woods’s problems—she has to find
the baby’s uncle, or the child will end up in foster care. She sleuths her way
to the reclusive CEO’s doorstep only to find six feet of holiday sexy—and a
door slammed in her face. But when Jackson comes around and urges they marry
for little Emily’s sake, Hannah finds herself falling for the jaded billionaire
and wishing for a holiday miracle of their own…
Marisa Clair wants to get her artist dreams back on
track after a life detour. That means no partying, no shopping…and definitely
no men to distract her. Should be easy, but there’s something about her hot and
exceedingly uptight boss and she can't seem to stop herself from ruffling Mr.
Tall, Dark and Irritating.
Financial consultant Luke McNamara lives his life
strictly by schedule – his OCD simply won't allow him to do anything else. And
the very last thing he needs is a sassy blonde putting lipstick on his collar
and messing with his routine. She annoys the hell out of him so why can’t he
stop thinking about the color of her panties…and how free he feels when he’s
with her?
Marisa and Luke’s plans to steer clear of one
another are shot to hell after a hot office encounter. Now the two of them will
have to learn to get along as they face a much more permanent reminder of their
lack of self-control – a pregnancy.
Get Talking Dirty with the CEO for just 99 cents
(two weeks only!)!!
Gadget journalist
Christie St. John is more geek than chic. But when research for an article she
has to write on online dating leads to the bed of the hottest guy she’s ever
met, she knows that if the geek is to keep the hottie CEO, she’s going to have
to come out of her digital shell.
Tech mogul Joseph Ashton never expected an Internet blind date to end in the best sex of his life. Yet as the chemistry between him and Christie burns out of control, he can't help but think this woman is out for his money like all the rest. She claims she wants his heart instead – but that’s the one thing he can never give.

she knows that the gorgeous playboy won’t even notice her. It doesn’t stop her
from wanting him to, though.
Four months ago, Nick’s bachelor-style life was turned upside

stakes, both professionally and romantically. Can he let business go long
enough to allow Stefanie into his heart?

Himalayan Mountains, she can’t afford second-guessing, attachments, or
distractions. But Ross’s blue eyes and strong hands leave her gasping...and

UNTANGLE
ME EXCERPT:
Where was Seth?
Once in the center of the dance floor she turned in
a circle, looking every direction.
There.
From the center seat at the bar, Seth’s direct
stare held her captive. A new song excited the crowd and cheers surrounded
them, but neither of them paid it any attention.
His jacket and tie were gone, giving her a closer
look at his all-male body. The top button on his white shirt was undone. She
wanted to undo the rest and get a glimpse at what lay underneath. Round
shoulders tapered to his waist. She bit her lip as she imagined his length.
He made no move to come to her, his elbow still
rested on the bar. He was a man waiting for the world to come to him.
Not the world. Her.
The comfortable confidence and the heat shining in
his eyes turned her on. She swayed her hips to the hypnotic beat. Her hands
felt their way up her thighs, around her hips, and an inch past her waist, he
got up and walked towards her.
In no time, his feet stepped in between hers and
together they rocked to the music. The drums and base from the band pushed a rhythm
into her body, driving her desire. Their fingers interlaced. She snuggled
closer and breathed in his clean musky scent.
She wanted to touch him, but he kept a hold on her
hands. He pushed them both behind her, causing her back to arch and her breasts
to press deliciously into his hard body. Heat rolled through her. She let her
head fall back, exposing her neck.
His lips brushed across her collarbone. They
continued to rock back and forth, their hips swaying and rubbing together. He
took her wrists in one hand and his other stroked down her neck, over her
shoulder, caressed the side of her breast, and around her waist to land on her
butt. He squeezed her ass and pressed her into the hard ridge of his cock. She
lowered her chin and moaned as she took in his expression filled with raw
desire. A slow devilish smile lit his features and sent a tremble through her.
The song ended and another began while they
continued their dance. He let go of her hands and she wrapped them around his
neck. Both of his hands molded her ass. She nuzzled his neck, taking a nibble
and a few kisses as she breathed him in. She wanted more.
Lots more.
She made her way closer to his mouth. Before she
stole a kiss, she looked into his eyes. His brown eyes had darkened to the
color of night, matching his hair. She sucked on her lower lip.
“You know what you’re doing, right?” he asked.
“I know I want you.”
“The Masters work the back rooms on club nights.
But we can stay on the dance floor all night, if you want.”
“You’re talking about the one on one rooms?” She
sucked in a breath.
“I don’t think this crowd is prepared to see what I
want to do to you.”
“Can we go back there? I want to go back there.”
She looked directly into his eyes.
