Blurb:

There's a thin line between love and hate . . . and it cuts right through the middle of their office.

Bad boys? They run right over good girls like Georgina Keller.

But after a confidence-shattering breakup, she's determined not to let anyone at her new workplace push her around―least of all the brooding creative director, a "bad boy of publishing" who's made it clear she's enemy #1.

Sebastian Quinn's taste for fast cars, late nights, and beautiful women may have gotten him to the top of a leading New York magazine, but the reputation that made him is suddenly threatening to end his career.

Georgina can help Modern Man shed its bad reputation, but in order to do that, she'll have to start at the top―and no amount of rakish charm or inconvenient attraction will distract her.

Because if Sebastian gets her right where he wants her, it means she's going down.

Book Review: Jessica Hawkins "Right Where I Want You"

Right Where I Want You

by author Jessica Hawkins

Release Date: December 28, 2018

Right Where I Want You by Jessica Hawkins was EVERYTHING I thought it would be, and yet, it was so much more!

Unlike her previous novels, Jessica Hawkins doesn't hit readers with the heavy angst, she instead takes a step back from the angst factor. However, Jessica still brings the passion, emotions, the butterfly-inducing romance.

I thought I was over office romances. But then Jessica Hawkins writes an office romance. And I had to read it!

Most noticeable Jessica Hawkins take on the office romance and how she creates such a read. One with all the feels. One with interesting and relatable characters that have their own flaws and own them. One where the thin line between love and hate combs through a realistic pace.

And all my thoughts about not wanting any more offices romances has dissolved. Jessica Hawkins truly has a gift for building characters that readers can feel connected to. Her characters have such dimension and complexity and they have no problems craving out a piece of my heart at the end of their stories.

This is one of my favorite enemies-to-lovers romances of the yea and Sebastian and Georgina absolutely stole my heart with their banter, wit, and push/pull dynamic. It's smart. It's sassy. It's everything you could ever want in a MUST READ OFFICE ROMANCE!!

Adult Contemporary Romance, Coming of Age Trilogy

Sixteen years is a long time. In a marriage, it's a milestone. On the gridiron, it's a miracle.

Reed Johnson wants more time for everything, but time is funny that way.

It can be cruel.

With a body that can't quite take the hits it used to and a heart tired of being torn in two

different directions, Reed is faced with a reality he's not quite ready for―life without the

game. He became a man under Friday night game lights and in college stadium tunnels,

and without the grit and the glory that's earned ten yards at a time, he's afraid of what

kind of man he'll be.

But there's more than a game at stake now.

Reed's wife, Nola, is afraid too. She's seen what can happen when the love of her life

pushes himself too hard, and she can't escape the nightmares she relieves after almost

losing her entire world to on single play on the field.

There is no compromise when it comes to football. Same goes for the heart. You're either

all in, or you get crushed. For Reed and Nolan, the clock is ticking down. Time ... it does

that. One way or another, they're going to have to make a choice.

This is their hail Mary.

This is win or lose.

(The Hail Mary is book 3 in The Waiting Series, which follows high school sweethearts

Reed Johnson and Nola Lennox through football, life, love and everything messy that

goes along with it. The series begins with Waiting on the Sidelines and Going Long.)

Give It Up by Jenika Snow

Add on Goodreads

The reading was short and to the point. There really was not any suspense. Readers are very kin into how the story is going to end. If you are looking for a short read this would be it. But mostly, readers are able to get the full story off the blurb.

The only interesting part of the book was the surprise at the end. But it does not relate to our main characters Loch and Nina. I would read on just to see where these secondary characters storyline take us.

Over all, I would give this reading 💎💎 out of five.

A broken past doesn't stop him from wanting a future with her.

Loch

I'd never wanted anything for myself until Nina stepped into my life. Two lives that came from ruined childhoods, growing up together, relying on each other . . . protecting her at all costs.

That was my life and I was content.

Until I wasn't because I wanted her as mine.

We were connected in all senses of the world. But I wasn't a good man. I was a member of the Devil's Boys MC, brothers in arms who would do anything to get by in life.

And Nina was the center of it all, an integral part of all of our lives.

But it was that thread that drew us together that kept me away.

I was afraid of losing the one thing that mattered most to me, for crossing an invisible line from being friends to lovers.

But without risk there wasn't rewards, and Nina would be the greatest reward I'd ever gotten.

Excerpt:

I weaved my way through the house, passing several armed men. I'd just reached the open French doors leading outside when a burst of husky, feminine laughter had me stopping in my tracks. The sound flowed through me and settled right in my gut, setting off warning signs. My feet started me moving forward again, but my steps were slower this time. Leaves and rocks crunched under my booted feet as I moved across the brick walk. My eyes scanned the area, and my whole body felt tight with an unknown tension.

I rounded the large tree that shaded about half the courtyard, and the first person I spotted was Miguel. He was fifty-eight years old, although he appeared much younger. He had minimal flecks of gray in his pitch-black hair, and only a few age lines graced his face. His figure was trim. He really was in his prime. In fact, at this moment, wearing a pressed pair of khakis and baby blue polo, with a genuine smile on his face, I'd guess women would consider him good looking.

Across from him was Alejandro. The elder Álvarez was polished and almost debonair. The younger was a punk. He wore tattered jeans several sizes too big, cinched tightly at the waist with a giant belt. His oversized basketball jersey was tucked in at the front but then hung sloppily down to mid-thigh, and the gold chains around his neck were quintessential douchebag. Add in the aviator glasses and his whole persona screamed he was trying too hard.

"Tomás, welcome back. I assume there were no complications today." Miguel asked, his hand outstretched to shake mine.

"Yes, sir. Everything went as planned."

"Wonderful. You know Alejandro, of course. And this beautiful woman is Gabriela."

My vision was consumed with the woman who stepped forward, her arm looped through the man-child's next to her. Hair of varying shades of brown, from light to dark, was curled and fell down around her slender shoulders, a few tendrils cupping her perfectly sized breasts. She was absolutely stunning, and everything in me screamed danger.

Two hot hockey players

A complete misunderstanding ...

And an unplanned pregnancy

I should have known they were different people.

It was so stupid of me not to notice.

But Tucker's hands set my skin on fire as much as Trent's.

Tucker whispered sweet things that made me want more.

Trent did this sexy thing that made my toes curl.

And I was lost of them, without even knowing it.

I fell hard, but only one of them owned my heart.

Only one of them loved me back.

And I was hoping it was the right guy...

As I stared down at the blue lines on the pregnancy test.

Jemma is the new girl on campus looking for a fresh start. She meets an amazing guy who happens to have a twin brother attending the same school. Unbeknownst to her, she was having speaking to both guys. However, there was only one who own her heart.

The moment Trent met Jemma sparks flew. He knew he just met someone different and unique. Problem is he never expected his brother, Tucker to met her too. And very well interested in her too.

Both are willing to fight for her. However, who does she like? Or better yet wants? More importantly who is the dad?

I liked the book. It was an okay read. But I definitely wanted more! The story line moved on quickly once the air was cleared. My hunger for the love story was not filled. I really hoped that the love between Jemma and her main squeeze would have been explored more. The story could have use more chapter to really entice readers and be committed to the relationship.

One call. That's all it took to change everything. The sweet voice on the other end of the line delivered a blow I never saw coming. Fighting for our country's freedom and starting death in the eye was nothing compared to this news.

History has one hell of a way repeating itself. Kate Wilson's voice didn't waver once as she turned my worst nightmare into a reality, and her words weaved a cruel poetic justice.

I hadn't been back home in over two years. Once I pulled into the one-horse town, I was greeted by the gorgeous blonde.

Kate extended her hand and offered me a warm smile. The connection was made. The innocent beauty has no idea that she just flipped my life upside down.

She'd unearthed secrets that can never be buried.

Eve

Pretentious. Arrogant. Condescending. Cruel.

All words I'd used to label him. Exactly what I'd always believed he was. All that changed one spring morning when I realized I didn't know the man behind the facade at all.

Angry. Desperate. Broken. Mine.

All words I'd use to define him after I interfered. Once our eyes locked, I was all in. There was no turning back. He tried to push me away, but I refused to let him go. I was determined to save him. What I didn't expect was that he would save me, too.

I was so close to ending my misery. Mere seconds away. Then she stumbled upon our argument, and I changed my plans. She wasn't supposed to be there. She knew too much. Even with my entire world burning down around me, she wouldn't walk away.

I've always been on my own. No one had ever fought for me before. Why should anyone start now? But she did, no matter how much I tries to stop her. I knew I was nothing, unworthy of her, but she was persistent. Once she got under my skin, I couldn't let her go, because where I end, she begins.
