💖 Things begin to unravel when Jensen’s past comes back to haunt him and the man he’s been hunting threatens to turn the tables on him. Protecting Harlow is now the only priority and might just send them all right into the relationship they all need.

💖 In this second gen installment, the intrigue continues with Harlow and her men. Desperate to prove herself, Harlow pushes boundaries and herself, putting herself in danger as she works to bring down a criminal organization. Niall is the man determined to protect her, to provide her with the love, the support she needs. Jensen not only brings the heat, the passion out in Harlow, but he needs to face his past before he can fully commit to Harlow and Niall.

💖 Another fantastic addition to the Texas Sirens world! My favorite reads include connected series and crossovers. And, The Reluctant Siren hits all the high points. Lexi Blake continues to develop excellent characters with depth of emotion, pain, and fears that are completely relatable. I love the suspense she immerses her characters into, which continues to build until the end. In all the suspense and drama, Lexi sprinkles in moments of light and humor, making her characters even more engaging.

💖 Of course, I can’t pass up a good Taggart-ism!

🎧 Review: The Maestro and the Roofer

📚The Maestro and the Roofer (A Dash of Desire Book 3)

🖋Author ~ Brianna Bancroft

 🎧Narrator ~ Claire Marlowe

🖋Features: Contemporary Romance, Novella Quick Read, Opposites Attract

⭐️Rating: 5/5

💖I love how opposites attract when this famous pianist collides with a man who knows how to use his hands.

🎼Mia Pelletier—Once the toast of the classical musical world, Mia’s personal life has taken a hard hit. Left reeling, her professional career and reputation are in shambles. 

🧰Travis Flynn—Always overlooked by his family, Travis’s quick wit and playful attitude keep everyone from getting too close or getting in too deep. That is, until Mia.

The sparks fly when these two meet! An unruly flirt, Travis and Mia quickly toss barbs and innuendos at each other. Travis’s teasing attitude and humor draw Mia out of her self-imposed isolation. Setting aside the fame, the pressure, and the expectations, Mia can just be herself with Travis. That’s what makes her time with him so special.

🎧 Claire Marlowe is fantastic giving a very saucy and playful voice to Mia and Travis. Their chemistry burns bright with her narration.

🖋Enjoyment: 5. Narrator: 5. Writing: 5. 

🖋Setting: 5. Plot: 5. Characters: 5. 

🫦 Marvelous Moments:

“You think your grandmother would’ve liked me?” he asked coyly. Mia threw him a teasing glare and said, “I still don’t even know if I like you.”

📚 Review ~ Popping the Clutch

A CarTubers Manual for Love Book 1

🖋 Author ~ Rochelle Bradley

🖋 Genre: Fake Relationship, Forced Proximity, RomCom

⭐️ Rating: 4/5

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dyson and Callie

A fake relationship to impress his family is just a reason for Dyson to get closer to Callie. A relentless stalker brings them even closer together.

🔧Popping the Clutch is a sweet read. Full of slow-burning humorous innuendos. While forced proximity and a fake relationship are the excuse to bring Dyson and Callie together, they were always meant to be a couple. There’s a lot more to Dyson than just his car show. That comes through in the way that he thinks about Callie. 

🔧She’s more than just a walking advertisement for her brother’s CarTube channel. “How did she learn everything, and what else did she know? I planned to plunder her mind like I plundered her b%dy.” He is also completely supportive in helping her get her own show up and running. 

🔧Getting to know Dyson’s family was a fun experience. I especially like the way the women not so subtly keep pushing Dyson and Callie together. However, Dyson’s cousin needs to be disowned.

🖋 Enjoyment: 5. Readability: 4. Writing: 5. 

🖋 Setting: 5. Plot: 4. Characters: 5. 

💌 Favorite Moments:

🖇 Dyson: She had asked if we were still pretending. How would she react if I told her I never had?

⭐️ Rating: 5/5

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lulu and Oliver

When someone threatens Lulu and the ones she loves, Oliver will do anything to protect her, even if it means giving up his freedom and their happily ever after.

Wow! I NEED an Oliver to be my hero! Lulu and Oliver are amazing together. I love the way their story developed. It was so sweet and easy. They just fit together perfectly. 

Oliver fits right in with the Gallo men. All of them want nothing more than to support the ones they love. There should definitely be more Gallo men in the real world! For new readers and longtime fans of Chelle Bliss, I hope you enjoy Lulu and Oliver’s romance as much as I did.
