Is it me or is this book hotter and sexier than the previous one?! Or maybe it's just Blake... -- Louise
I really loved this second book, even more than the first. It had me engrossed from the first chapter... I think you have another hit in your series. -- Geneva
I can't put it down. ..one of your best! ... one of the best stories I have read lately. -- Melissa
Maeve is over the moon: life is good and she's about to get married to Peter. But when she loses her job and gets jilted at the altar, her world crumbles and she runs into her momma's arms.
She's back in her small hometown for a week, and she has a plan - make Peter insanely jealous and win him back. Enter Blake Taylor, the boy who broke her heart. She'd rather avoid him at all costs, but with his 'bad boy' good looks and their shared history, Blake is the perfect man for the job, as long as she can stand him long enough - it's just one week, after all.
She'll show Peter that she's not the sweet wallflower he thinks she is, and he'll come running back soon enough.
But when he does, will she still want him?
A second chance love hate story.
The Pope by LP Lovell
Contemporary Romance
Blurb:
I’m a priest, a messenger of God, a good man. At least that’s what I would have them all believe.
She’s a lost lamb, cast adrift from her flock and seeking shelter from the wolves snapping at her heels. She’s looking for salvation, protection, forgiveness for her sins. I’m not the man to give it to her. But for the first time in my life, I want to be.
Little does she know…
For even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Yeah. I didn't sleep last night. Like at all. Not only was my brain going on over drive over other projects, but it also kept coming back to Judas and Delilah. This book was fascinating. I couldn't get enough of it and i wanted more.
More than once i wondered if there was more to this story that i haven't seen yet, if it's part of a new series or of an existing one. And most of all, i wanted more!! Who in the world are the Kingsleys? Needless to say that i'm really hoping that LP Lovell will make the decision to give us more of this family to show us what's to become of Saint, Judas and Jace because they are interesting to say the least.
I'm used to this author's darker stories, and even had the chance to read her contemporary romances that tore me to shreds and The Pope fell right in between. Dark enough to satisfy that craving for dark, and enough 'falling in love stuff' to make you giddy inside when you least expect it.
Honestly, i'm really looking forward to more of this family and i can only hope that we'll get more of Judas and Delilah in the future because, wow.

Devious Eyes by Charlotte E. Hart & Rachel De Lune
Book: Devious Eyes (A Cane Novel #2)
Authors: Charlotte E Hart and Rachel De Lune
Genre: Dark. Erotic Romance
**OUT NOW!**
#DeviousEyes #CharlotteEHart #RachelDeLune
Synopsis
"You think I’m a hooker?"
The fiercely brooding guy I met at the bar needed to check his asshole behaviour. Still, he fast turned into the distraction I needed from my life. But it wasn’t romance. Couldn’t be. Running was my MO. This time I'm hiding in paradise, hoping I can stay alive, and trying to ignore the one person I’ve never been able to — my brother.
The problem is, I didn't know who Nate Cane really was, and I didn’t know what was coming for me either.
“You try it again, and I’m done.”
That's what I said to my brother when he challenged me. I meant every damn word. This time it’s my rules. My life. My game.
Screw loyalty.
But the woman I met at that bar hid her devious eyes from me. She wasn’t who I thought, and life has a way of determining your future, no matter the odds. Gabriella Alves might have started as a calculated fling — dirty, far from innocent, and mine — but then hell came after her and invaded my world. And a Cane always protects what’s his.
Odds be damned.
Loyalty. Family. Dark. Erotic. Romance.
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This author duo is something that i always remember. I love how when duos meet, you can't tell one from the other because their styles mesh so amazingly that it's difficult to know which author wrote which part and whether or not they switched characters mid way.
I've read the previous book to this series, the introduction, and i was captivated and very curious on where they would go from that point on, knowing that it was a darker and mafia themed story line. By the time that i had gotten my hands on the second instalment, i had gone back and reread some parts of the first book so that i knew what i was getting myself into. So i would be prepared.
Devious Eyes was very different from Innocent Eyes. I was expecting much of what i felt and read during that first book, only to come to realize that Devious Eyes was nothing like it. It wasn't as dark, nor was the dynamic between these two characters the same. Here you have a professional thief and a Mafia accountant and in some ways, on the same playing field, and i think, considering the dynamic i read in the first book, i was a bit disappointed.
It became more difficult to connect with the story and even with the characters and, as much as i wish i could say otherwise, i think that the fact that i was expecting something different had a huge impact on how i enjoyed the story. It doesn't mean that because i wasn't 100% on board on how the story was developed that someone else won't find it incredibly fascinating and engaging. I think that knowing what i know now, i'll have to go back later in time and hope that my experience will be different.

Inked by Drew Elyse
We are thrilled to be bringing you the release of the release of INKED by Drew Elyse. INKED is the second standalone in the Sailor's Grave series. Lovers of contemporary romance won't want to miss this one - be sure to get your copy today!
About INKED
INSTANT ATTRACTION IS A POWERFUL THING.
Six months of dancing around each other
led to one explosive night
and two weeks without a word.
Only then did I learn the truth:
The man I’d wanted since he walked into Sailor’s Grave Tattoo Parlor was
actually an undercover cop.
And the worst part is,
I don’t even know his real name.
BUT WHAT IF ATTRACTION ISN’T ENOUGH
For over eight months I held back.
Except for that one night when I couldn’t fight it anymore.
I’d wanted her from the beginning,
but I should have kept waiting until my secrets weren’t between us.
Now, I have the ultimate challenge before me:
Convince the inked goddess of a receptionist
to at least let me keep her safe,
even if she won’t give me another chance.

When i picked up this book, i was sure i was about to read a book that was following a new series i was instantly hooked on. And lo and behold, turns out that the joke was on me because i had mixed two series, only i had only read one previous book by Drew Elyse in the past.
The previous book i had read, Engage, was different in the sense that when i read it, it felt like as though this author was just starting to spread her wings and really find out what she's capable of spinning as tales. I looked forward to getting back to her stories in the future and quite honestly, which makes me sad to say, i had forgotten about that book.
On the flip side, Inked was, wow. It's a complete 180 from what i've seen from Drew Elyse in the past and there were no hesitations. Her characters are strong, engaging, absolutely mesmerizing. And the best part? Unforgettable. I didn't want to stop reading this book. I truly wanted to keep going and since i had been in a book funk, where none of the books were getting me, or rather, i wasn't getting the story lines, from the very start, i was hooked.
This is no wallflower that is simpering in the corner and waiting for the strong alpha male to make his move. On the contrary - here is a woman that i wish my own daughter aspires to be. Willing to take chances, puts herself out there and has an entire 'village' at her back, ready to lay down their lives to make sure she's safe. Never would i wish what happens to these characters to happen to anyone else, but it truly showed just how resilient they are.
I looked forward to being able to read after a long day at work and a longer evening having to 'adult'. And one thing is for sure, the Sailor's Grave series is really entertaining and exactly what i needed to get out of the book funk i was going through.
