My One Despair by Claudia Burgoa




Title: My One Despair
Author: Claudia Burgoa
Genre: Romance/Women's Fiction

Cover Design: Amy Queau
Release Date: November 1, 2018




Blurb


Once, they shared one soul. Can hope heal years of
despair and broken dreams?

Music is all I know. It saved me as a kid. It brings me fame
and fortune now. But what am I, the famous Gage Rodin, doing at night when I’m
on the road and can’t sleep? Googling her. Tess Hades, the
girl who still haunts my dreams and my lyrics.

She arrived like a quiet storm, a wild thing with eyes
guarded to the world. But she let me into the deep end of her beautifully
broken soul. When we were together, life was simple. When my life got
complicated, she did what she thought was the right thing. She let me go.

While she’s been out saving the wild creatures of the world,
my muse has fed on the memory of our life together. But now everything in my
world is shifting again, and not in a good way. I’m not certain I have the
strength to bear another devastating loss, so I find myself reaching for
something as rare and elusive as the perfect song lyric.

The one woman who never gave up hope…

Everhart Brothers Series by Claudia Burgoa




Title: Flawed

Series: The Everhart Brothers #1
Author: Claudia Burgoa
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: August 7, 2017




Blurb


Hunter
Given a choice, I’d date a woman who doesn’t know who I am.
Like the blue-eyed woman I meet on sidewalk, tears streaming down her cheeks.
The one who triggers what my overprotective older brothers call my “Everhart
Complex”—the uncontrollable urge to erase someone else’s pain.
This little character flaw could shred me if I let it.
That’s why I don’t do family law. But it’s who I am. Who I became after my
parents died.

Willow
Nothing says “successful adult” like living with my
grandfather and having my little sister as my boss. But with my acting career
stalled and my checking account in single digits, playing receptionist at
Beesley Enterprises is a bearable humiliation.
Until he walks into the office. The man I met on the
sidewalk on the worst night of my career. Mr. I’m-Going-To-Fix-Your-Life—as if
I’d let him. Because just for a moment, I felt safe. I felt something besides
numbness. And dammit, if I let my ice queen façade crack, I’ll be worse than
back to square one. I could fall off the edge entirely…

Luna

Finally, I’ve got a chance to prove I belong undercover, not
riding a support desk. Or making babies to please my abuela. My job is to save
the babies. The children disappearing down NYC’s human trafficking rathole.
I’ll use any legal connection to do it. My horoscope warned
me no to give in to blind impulse, but god help me, Harrison Everhart makes me
want to close my eyes and leap. That would be the biggest mistake of my career.
Maybe my life.

Harrison

I work the kind of high-intelligence security that bends the
law forward, backward, and sideways to let New Yorkers live in blissful
ignorance. But maybe it’s time for some remedial training, because one minute,
Luna Galvez is lighting up my darkness with her angel eyes.
The next, she’s kicking my ass.
Skills like hers are wasted in the FBI. Whether she likes it
or not, from now on, we’re partners. Because after my ex-Ranger brothers and I
help her nail the bad guys, I’m putting her on the payroll. And by my
side—forever.

Title: Found
Series: The Everhart Brothers #3
Author: Claudia Burgoa
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 30, 2018



Blurb

All I’ve ever wanted was for someone to choose me. My mother
didn’t. My father didn’t. The beautiful boy next door, who grew up to marry me,
didn’t. Neither did the next man with whom I thought my heart was safe.
Back in the Bay area, three thousand miles from New York
City, I can start fresh. Become one with the sea again, rise or fall on the
tide of my own choices. But on the first day of my bright new life, the darkest
shadows of my past follow me through my office door. The two men whose names
are definitely not on my five-year plan.
If I let it consume me—my need for one man, my love for the
other—the darkness will swallow me whole. I can’t let that happen. Not again.
This time, the waves of emotion crashing against my heart won’t drown me. This
time, I get to choose my happy ending.

About Cards of Love: Knight of Wands

A chance for a sweet future, or a recipe for disaster? 
Kaitlynn My dream was to cook my way to fame and fortune, not run myself ragged keeping my late parents’ quaint Savannah restaurant afloat. My sister is useless, I’m chronically short-staffed, and even Gertie, my antiquated oven, hates me. Then in charges Oliver, like a Golden Knight. He’s hunky and charming and makes others feel at ease. He’s earnest and kind, optimistic and extroverted. My best friend. My sister’s ex. Picking up the slack like he never left all those years ago. Making my body shiver with the lightest touch, the slightest smile. It would be so easy to let him be my knight in shining armor. But I can’t let him, even though he makes Gertie purr like a kitten. 
Oliver I practically grew up waiting tables alongside KitKat. She’s a brilliant chef, but it’s clear she’s no manager. I’ve noticed other changes in her since her letters stopped coming to me in Iraq. There’s fire burning in her green eyes—and pain. The kiss was meant to comfort. But it explodes into searing passion so white-hot, not even the tallest, iciest sweet tea can quench it. I shouldn’t try. She doesn’t want help, especially not mine. But a kiss like that is the beginning of a promise. A promise that won’t stop until I help her find her dream.  


Cards of Love: Knight of Wands

My rating: 4 of 5 stars









I'm a fan of Claudia Burgoa's. she has a way of writing her books that just tugs at your heart. When i first read her books, i honestly thought that she was a lgtbq genre author, and wasn't following her religiously as i am now - why? Mostly because that genre was a hit or miss with me. These days, i have to say that i have a huge respect for writers who write in that genre because to take a full fledged m/f reader and make them absolutely love another genre with m/m and f/f themes, is huge! And this author did that for me.

Since that first book of Claudia Burgoa's, i've come to appreciate her way of telling a story. Taking chilling subjects and making them real, and making you respect not only the writing style, but the journey that her characters go through. But i digress... i was supposed to talk about this book and not my general love and enjoyment of this author's stories.

Knight of Wands is... different. It's much shorter than what i'm used to reading by this author, and chances are that it accounts for a good portion of why i couldn't rate it a 5 star review; mostly because for me, there was missing something. It was a lot of my having to try to figure out the who, what, where and when. And maybe i should have caught up on the previous books that are linked to this story, of maybe i should have paid better attention, but that's all on me.

If i could rate this book purely on the way that it's told, i would absolutely rate it a 5 star. If i could rate it on the feels, that would get me higher than 5 stars. The fact that i was really trying to piece so many puzzles at the same time as i read the book... that worked against me. Don't get me wrong, i'm still loving Claudia Burgoa's books... i just have to brush up on my history and get my butt back to reading Knights Of Wands and seeing exactly what i missed the first time around.

Synopsis:

 

For the first time in his life, Wes Ahern has encountered something—someone—he can't fix. Not with his hands, his words, not even with his love.

His head tells him Abby had to get out of Colorado to heal from the nightmare that nearly took her from him. To mend her wounded body, piece her broken spirit back together, and find out who she is behind the mask she felt forced to wear. His first instinct was always to protect her. Still is. But as he faces his own pain, an agonizing realization dawns: that while he needs her more than his next breath, the best place for her may not be with him. Because while he always had her back, the secrets they kept—even from each other—have the power to destroy them. When their paths cross again, will their souls still recognize each other? Note: Back to You is the conclusion of the Chaotic Love Duet. Often dark and sometimes jarring, this book also contains references to childhood trauma, rape, kidnapping, and PTSD.


My rating: 5 of 5 stars


 







I thought that the first book broke me, it was nothing compared to Back To You. It was worst. It was torture and being brought back from the brink on so many occasions that i wasn't even sure on how these characters survived their ordeal. How they managed to find that silver lining that would make them fight harder to be whole once more.

This book won't be for everyone. The subjects are heavy and can be disturbing, but i assure you that when you do sit down to read this book, you'll be grateful that you did. Claudia Burgoa makes no apologies for how she writes, what she writes and how it makes you feel (i've seen that very rarely in few authors and love that they do this), and it's some of the main reasons on why you should read this book anyways.

Back To You is the conclusion to this duet, and it's incredibly well done. So much so that you have chills running up and down your back and wonder if you'll be able to survive the storyline. It's one of those stories that goes beyond physical pain and shows you the mental struggle that you go through, the work, the pain, the uncertainties on whether or not you can survive. But survive you do because in the end, you don't want those that wanted to break you to win. And that is a lesson that everyone needs to learn - that the haters can't and shouldn't win.

I can't wait to see what else Claudia Burgoa has to offer her readers because since that very first book i read from her, she's one of those authors that you can't forget.
