and Jason beneath the sultry Florida sunshine, consuming them both. But they’re
on borrowed time…and it’s about to run out.

Captivated by Tessa Bailey & Eve Dangerfield
Title: Captivated
Authors: Tessa Bailey & Eve Dangerfield
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 11, 2018
Blurb
Secret aspiring comedian Autumn Reynolds is a girl gone...not wild exactly. More like lazy. Since her boyfriend abandoned her in New York City for a bunch of improv groupies she’s had two priorities; sucking the nitrous out of whipped cream cans and making sex comics about her mysterious landlord.
Blake hates people—and sunlight—with good reason. Imagine his surprise when he finds himself lusting after his upstairs tenant, a sunny, Australian people pleaser down on her luck. Turns out his ability to terrify with a single scowl comes with an advantage. Autumn seems to like it. A lot. As evidenced by the prisoner-captive comic Blake was never meant to see.
As they embark on a three-date arrangement the rules are clear; filthy, ground breaking sex, no feelings or commitment required. When chemistry is this strong, though, attachment follows. As Blake and Autumn attempt to negotiate their New York romance, their prior histories and secret dreams come to the foreground. How long can these polar opposites remain Captivated, when all signs point to disaster?

Eve Dangerfield
Eve Dangerfield has loved romance novels since she first started swiping her grandmother’s paperbacks. Now she writes her own sexy tales about complex women and gorgeous-but-slightly-tortured men. Her work has been described as ‘the defibrillator contemporary romance needs right now,’ and not by herself, or even her mum, but by OTHER PEOPLE.
Eve lives in Melbourne with her boy, a bunch of semi-dead plants and a rabbit named Billy. When she's not writing she can be found making a mess.

Release Date: March 26, 2018

This unlikely
getaway driver never expected to help the mayor escape…
After a six-year
absence, Addison Potts is back in Charleston to stir things up. And what better
place to make her villainous return than her estranged cousin’s wedding? Only,
the nuptials hit a snag when the bride doesn’t show, leaving Addison to play getaway
driver for the jilted groom. A groom whose heartbreaking smile and deep,
southern drawl she should not be noticing…
Elijah Montgomery Du
Pont is the future mayor of Charleston. From his military career to city hall,
every detail of his life has been meticulously planned. Until now. His only
respite from life’s sudden upheaval is Addison, his new, improbable best
friend. She makes him happy. Grounds him. And public disapproval be damned,
he’s not willing to give her up. But with an election on the line and public
pressure rising, Addison—and the cruel hand of fate—might not give him a
choice.
Excerpt
“Well…” I
stop to clear the rasp from my voice. “If there’s no picture of us together, we
should take one.”
“Good
idea.” He crooks his finger at me, unwittingly sealing his fate. “Come here.”
I put my
jacket on downstairs when I thought we were leaving, but I take it off now,
simply letting it fall. “I want you in the mayor’s chair.”
His eyes
stray to my pooled jacket, then tick to mine. “You what?”
“In the
picture. I want you sitting in the chair.”
“Oh.
Right.” He slides out the brown leather, high-back executive chair and drops
into it. “What about you?”
My bravery
slips. Whose wouldn’t? This powerful, gorgeous man sits before me, outlined by
the city he’s been elected to run. His thighs are thicker than my waist, his
sleeves caught up around his elbows. A strong man. A man of conviction who will
not be seduced unless he really wants to be.
Or is driven
out of his mind and can’t resist.
Before I
can second-guess myself, I move between his outstretched thighs and ease myself
onto his lap. “Addison.”
I send him
an innocent look over my shoulder. “Yes, Captain?”
His chest
rises and falls. Once. Twice. “Take the picture.”

Too Close to Call by Tessa BaileyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Title: Too. Lose To Call
Author: Tessa Bailey
4 unexpected stars
The only other time that I read a novel by Tessa Bailey was from the 1001 Dark Nights lineup for another series of hers. I had enjoyed it, throughout holy i pressed with the easiness that I felt in being able to follow the storyline and couldn't wait to read more from her in the future. I'll admit I didn't follow her religiously, but when I saw her name pop up in the 'soon to be released from 1001 Dark Nights', I knew I had to get my hands on it and find out what Too Close To Call was all about. Let me tell you that I wasn't disappointed! I was captivated and couldn't get enough, even enjoying the journey that these characters went through together their second chance at romance.
4 breath taking dreams
Since I hadn't read any of the previous books in the series, I'm not sure if Kyler and Bree had a story made for their time before they broke up, so that was always on the back of my mind... wondering if there was a part of the story that I was missing. Even with those small questions in the back of my mind, this was still a book that I liked. One that I enjoyed watching Kyler and Bree discover each other once more and find out if there's still something between one another that's worth rekindling. I liked the way that Tessa Bailey brought her characters to life and how her story felt so real.flr certain I'll be looking forward to more from this author in the future so I can see how she'll bring more stories and characters to life and make them as real as those that surround me every day.
