Black Sheep by Meghan March - ARC Review & Release Bltiz






From New York Times bestselling author Meghan March comes a story of untold truths and one man’s redemption in the Dirty Mafia Duet. 

Every family has a black sheep. 

In the infamous Casso crime family, that black sheep is me—Cannon Freeman. 

Except I’m not a free man. I’ve never been free. Not since the day I was born. 

I owe my loyalty to my father, Dominic Casso, even if he won’t publicly acknowledge me as his blood. 

I’ve never had a reason to go against his wishes…until I met her. 

Drew Carson turned my world upside down when she walked into my club looking for a job. 

Now, my honor and my life are on the line. 

Going against my father’s wishes might buy me a bullet straight from his gun, but black sheep or not, it’s time to make my stand. 

She’s worth the fallout.



Meghan March has done it again.

She made me like a character I am probably not supposed to like, she made me want Cannon and Drew to get together and be happy, and, more than anything, she made me yell at my Kindle when I realized that yes, YES, she really did end the 1st book in the duet right at that point in the story.

Now, the real problem? What can I say about this title that isn't a spoiler for someone else?

There are so many twists and turns, so many surprises, and so many things that you don't know from the blurb and figure out as you are reading...and, there is not a lot I can say that won't turn out to be a spoiler for someone.

So, I am going to say that I loved this book. I loved the characters, their relationship, the secondary characters, and the way the story was constructed kept it interesting and engaging from the first page to the last.

I enjoyed and recommend this title...and, waiting for the next one is going to be torture.

Butterfly in Frost by Sylvia Day - ARC Review



From #1 New York Times bestselling phenomenon Sylvia Day comes a hotly anticipated and passionate new love story.

Once, I would never have imagined myself here. But I’m settled now. In a place I love, in a home I renovated, spending time with new friends I adore, and working a job that fulfills me. I am reconciling the past and laying the groundwork for the future.

Then Garrett Frost moves in next door.

He’s obstinate and too bold, a raging force of nature that disrupts the careful order of my life. I recognize the ghosts that haunt him, the torment driving him. Garrett would be risky in any form, but wounded, he’s far more dangerous. I fear I’m too fragile for the storm raging inside him, too delicate to withstand the pain that buffets him. But he’s too determined…and too tempting.

And sometimes hope soars above even the iciest desolation.

Emotional and heartrending, Butterfly in Frost marks a brilliant return by global sensation Sylvia Day, the #1 international multimillion bestselling author of the Crossfire saga.

Risky Love by Stacey Kennedy - ARC Review


USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy is back with the thrilling and emotional conclusion of the Dirty Hacker duet about a hacker who doesn’t back down on a case, a sexy CIA agent who is more than a little overprotective, and two slightly reluctant but perfectly matched hearts.

Tracking a killer is the last thing hacker Alex McCoy expected out of her vacation to New York, but after rekindling her one-time romance with sexy CIA Agent Rowan Hawke, she can’t refuse his request for help. Waiting for a break in the case proves to be more challenging than Alex expected, especially because it gives her too much time to think about her growing feelings for Rowan. Feelings she would much rather write off as the intensely hot chemistry between them. 

Rowan knows that Alex has a lot of emotional baggage, but every day as they work together, he becomes more certain she’s the woman for him. Unfortunately, Rowan’s instinct to protect her is put to the test when secrets come to light and Alex throws herself in the line of fire to help Rowan solve the case. As Rowan falls deeper for Alex, he must open up about his past and give her the chance to prove that she’s the right partner—in work and in life.


This is the second book for Alex and Rowan, and I was thrilled to get an ending for their story.  It was perfect, and so very them all the way to the end.

I like books when the character has a profession that exists.  And, they engage in the profession.

If they are a NFL player, I don't want it to be between seasons.  If they are spies I want them to do...spy things.  If they are hackers, I need them to hack into things.  No, I don't know what either of these professions entails, and I am the farthest thing from either, but what matters is that I believed in who the characters were in the story. 

And, well, I enjoyed it.

I am not going to go into the plot at all, as this is the 2nd in a duet and spoilers are mean, awful and terrible things...but, I can say that I enjoyed and recommend this title.

On the Corner of Love and Hate by Nina Bocci - ARC Review



For fans of Christina Lauren and Lauren Layne comes a delightfully sassy and sexy romance about a campaign manager who reluctantly works with the local Lothario to help revamp his image for the upcoming mayoral elections, only to discover that he’s hiding something that can turn both their lives upside down.

What’s a campaign manager’s worst nightmare? A smooth-talking charmer who’s never met a scandal that he didn’t like.

When Emmanuelle Peroni’s father—and mayor of her town—asks her to help rehab Cooper Endicott’s image, she’s horrified. Cooper drives her crazy in every way possible. But he’s also her father’s protégé, and she can’t say no to him without him finding out the reason why: Cooper and her have a messy past. So Emmanuelle reluctantly launches her father’s grand plan to get this Casanova someone to settle down with and help him lose his lothario reputation.

Cooper Endicott wanted to run for Mayor, but he never wanted the drama that went with it. Now that he’s on the political hamster wheel, the other candidates are digging up everything from his past. Even though he’s doing all the right things, his colorful love life is the sticking point for many of the conservative voters. He wants to win, badly, and he knows that if he wants any chance of getting a vote from the female population, he needs to change his image. The only problem? He might just be falling in love with the one person he promised not to pursue: the Mayor’s off-limits daughter.

A perfect blend of humor and heart, On the Corner of Love and Hate is the first in a new series from USA TODAY bestselling author Nina Bocci.
