Bad at Love

by Karina Halle

Bad at Love is a brand new friends to lovers story.  It is a complete stand alone.

Synopsis:

She's bad at love, but he's even worse...
Marina is hot, blonde, and wickedly smart, but when it comes to men? She's hopeless. Between her quirks and her lack of filter, there isn't a man in Los Angeles that will stick around after the third date.

Her handsome, charming friend Lazarus has the opposite problem. Everyone wants to be the sexy Brit's girlfriend, but he gets bored and moves on quickly.

There's only one way to figure out why neither of them has cracked this love thing-- they'll date each other. On paper, it's the perfect experiment. But in reality, things between Marina and Laz get complicated quickly.

They might be bad at love, but they are even worse at being friends.

I fell in love with these characters.  Marina was sweet and a little quirky.  And Laz was a sexy, brooding and british hottie.  This was a sweet and sexy as well as angsty friends to lovers story.  They had such funny and awkward banter, they cracked me up.  But also broke my heart at certain times.  I loved these 2, and I loved every second of the journey, even when I wanted to yell at them both!!!  

Bad at Love is available now, and is free if you have Kindle Unilimited!!  This an epic friends to lovers story, and I highly recommend it!!

Spider

by Ilsa Madden Mills

Spider is a complete stand alone, we do meet Spider in another series, but this book can be read as a stand alone.  

Synopsis:

He calls himself Spider.

I just knew him as the sinfully gorgeous guy with eyes of fire that fate sat next to me on the airplane.

I didn't know who he really was...British rock star...my stepbrother.

He kissed me because he thought we'd never see each other again. We would.

Everyone warned me about him.
They told me he was ruthless and cold and screwed up.
They said he'd leave me with a hole in my heart.

Maybe I should have listened.
Maybe I should have built up a fortress to keep him out.
But I crumbled instead.

They say an unbreakable thread connects those who are destined to meet. If that's true, then the moment he sat next to me, we were bound together forever.

He just had to figure it out before it's too late...

I was sucked into this story from the very beginning.  I both loved and hated Spider.  He had moments where he was sweet and sexy, and then moments where he was destructive and I wanted to punch him.  And Rose was so sweet and young, and parts of the story just killed me.  This is an emotional, sexy, and somewhat heartbreaking coming of age story.  I loved how the relationship progressed, but also, it made me so sad at times.  

This is an emotional, well written angsty read, and I loved it.  I highly recommend it, and it is available now!!  It is also on Kindle Unlimited

The Outpost

by Devney Perry

I loved this whole series, but this one might be my fave.   This can be read as a standalone, but I highly recommend the whole series.   

Synopsis:

Trapped in his tiny mountain cabin, she didn't expect to fall for his big heart.

Exposing a prominent criminal family with an investigative news report didn’t exactly work out the way Sabrina had hoped. Instead of basking in the glory of her article’s success, she’s on the run from a powerful man who wants her dead. To stay safe, she’s forced to trade one bad situation for another. Stuck in the Montana wilderness, she’s secluded from anything resembling civilization or the modern-day world. The only good thing about her situation is the gorgeous mountain man assigned to protect her. Too bad he isn’t the slightest bit interested in a city girl like her.

Beau likes his life quiet and simple. Give him a peaceful day hiking in the woods with his dog, and he’s a happy man. He has no use for large crowds, noisy cities or dramatic women. So when a hotshot reporter rolls into town, dragging her big-time problems with her, he should have run for the hills. Instead, he volunteered to keep her safe. Bringing her into his world won’t be easy, but if he can convince her that Montana isn’t as terrifying as she believes, they might just be the perfect match.

I absolutely fell in love with Beau and Sabrina.  We meet Beau early on in the series, but we don't really know much about him.  He is amazing!!  He is sweet, and sexy and completely devoted to his job and his family.  I adored him.  And Sabrina was a mess, but in such a heartbreaking way.  I felt so much for her, and I wanted to hug her.  This story is definitely a slow burn, and I was completely sucked in!!  I loved how the relationship grew, and at the same time they broke my heart. 

This series has been one of my favorites of 2017!!  I highly recommend them all, and especially The Outpost.  They are all emotional, sexy, and incredibly well written!  And I know at least one more book is coming.
