Irresistible by Melanie Harlow - Release Blitz

I’m a full-time single dad to three daughters and CFO at Cloverleigh Farms. I don’t have time to fall in love—I’m too busy trying to run a business, keep the red socks out of the white laundry, and get the damn pillowcases on without owing a dollar to the swear jar. Sure, Frannie Sawyer is beautiful and sweet, but she’s twenty-seven, the boss’s daughter, and my new part-time nanny—which means she’s completely off-limits. It’s bad enough I can’t stop fantasizing about her, what kind of jerk would I be if I acted on the impulse to kiss her? (Exactly the kind of jerk you’re thinking.) Actually, I’m worse than that—because I didn’t stop with a kiss, and now I can’t stay away. She makes me feel like myself again. She reminds me what it’s like to want something just for me. She’s everything I ever needed, but nothing I ever imagined. I’m a former Marine. I should have had the strength to resist her from the start. But I didn’t. And now I have to choose between the life I want and the life she deserves. Even if it means giving her up.

Misadventures of a Curvy Girl by Sierra Simone - ARC Review & Blog Tour

For the first time in her life, Ireland Mills is happy with her body. No more fad diets, no more hiding from every camera in the room, no more low self-esteem. She’d rather be alone than with someone who’ll only love her if she’s skinny. Caleb Carpenter and Ben Weber are everything Ireland and the Kansas Chamber of Commerce dreamed of when conceptualizing the “Real Kansas” promotional campaign. They’re handsome, young, educated, and totally dedicated to their small prairie town. When Ireland’s Prius gets stuck on a Kansas dirt road and a massive storm rips through town, she’s left stranded with nowhere to turn but to Caleb and Ben. These two hunky country boys are impossible to ignore, but could they ever be interested in her as well? Caleb and Ben are more than interested…and they’re willing to share. After their first night together, they know this has to be more than a one-time thing. They need to make her theirs forever. But can they convince Ireland they love her, curves and all? ****

What can I say about this, really?

It's Sierra Simone, it's absolutely as scorchingly hot as you are expecting. Seriously, from the first meeting with Caleb, the attraction jumps off the page and you know that the scenes with them are going to be intense, sexy, and fun.

I was not disappointed. Add in Ben (you know this is coming from the beginning) and OMG it makes me want to spend time in barns in Kansas, just in case they are as interesting in real life as they are in this story. (I am guessing they aren't as I feel I would have heard, but it still feels like it might be worth investigating.)

It's a shorter novel, so pacing wise it is a instalove story, but as the attraction is so strong, you believe in the attraction and the relationship with Caleb, Ben, and Ireland.

When a story focus on a threesome, it's important that each character exists both in the relationship and outside of it...and in this story, I liked the characters, I felt that they had depth and were interesting both within the relationship and separately. I liked that Ben and Caleb had a relationship that was separate from the one they developed with Ireland...and I liked that Ireland was able to develop separate relationships with Ben and Caleb.

I definitely enjoyed this story, and I recommend it.

The minute I saw this blurb I had grabby hands for this book. I knew it would be hot and sexy and I was NOT disappointed. Sierra Simone has another scorcher on her hands with this one.

I'm always fascinated with books labeled curvy-because I wonder what curvy exactly means to the Author. I think everyone has a different perspective on that. I loved Sierra's descriptions; I could envision Ireland perfectly.

This book is on the shorter side, but it definitely packs a punch into its pages. There's an instant attraction and connection between Ireland and Ben and Caleb. I believed in it from the start. I wanted to see how this trio would mesh and come together (no pun intended) and I truly thought it worked well here. The sex was sizzling hot and I definitely needed a fan when I was done with this one.

While the book is short, the plot and character development isn't. I felt like I got to know all of these characters. I liked them as people. The writing flowed perfectly and like I said, it's sizzling hot. I enjoyed this book and absolutely recommend it.

Meet the Author

Sierra is a voracious reader of all things including the smuttiest smut, young adult, piles of non-fiction for research, and everything Bill Bryson (especially on audio).
She loves writing the dirtiest things that she can think of, King Arthur, sparkling water, Tarot, coffee, leggings, and learning new words daily.

Her previous jobs have included firing ceramics, teaching living history lessons in a one-room schoolhouse in full, 1908-approved school marm attire, and working as a librarian for several years—not in that order

She lives in the Kansas City area with her hot cop husband, two children, and two giant dogs. (And two cats, but they're so naughty we don't talk about them.)

The social media she cares about the most are Spotify and (her very very NSFW) Tumblr. Following her in those places is a true love language, indeed.

Luck of the Devil by Meghan March - ARC Review & Blog Tour

New York Times bestselling author Meghan March continues the story of ruthless, calculating billionaire Jericho Forge in Luck of the Devil.

My poker face has always been one of my greatest assets, along with my grit and determination. I was beholden to no one. Asked permission for nothing.
Then Jericho Forge took my life by storm.

I traded my freedom for something infinitely more precious, but I didn’t realize he was holding an unbeatable hand.

Now, all I have to do is survive the high-stakes game that is my life—with my heart intact.

But not falling in love with Forge? That will take the luck of the devil.

Luck of the Devil is the second book of the Forge Trilogy, and should be read following Deal with the Devil. The Forge Trilogy concludes in Heart of the Devil.

Well, first off, I was mostly right. And, well, that is always fun. (If this makes no sense, refer to my review of the 1st book in this trilogy.)

That said...I was right enough that this story did move in pretty much the direction I saw coming. But, that is not a criticism. Meghan March has put together the kind of story where you get to know the characters, their good, their bad, their strengths, their flaws and their weaknesses. Once you get to know a character this well, you are not only invested, but the things they do start to feel in character and you are able to believe their actions.

This is exactly where I found myself at the start of this, and as I read it I both knew what I thought was going to happen but was also surprised by the events and engaged in the story.

So, really, this was pretty much the perfect story and the perfect ride.

Until the cliffhanger.

What the heck?!?!? Seriously??? WHY DOES MEGHAN MARCH MAKE ME SUFFER LIKE THIS?? (And, why do I enjoy it so much? Although, that feels like a conversation for a different review.)

And, since no spoilers will live in this review, I am going to tell you that you will love it, that it's exactly what you want to have happen, and that you will be yelling at your Kindle while hoping if you keep pressing the forward button, you will get the next part of the story.

I enjoyed this title, and I recommend it.
