Beautiful but deadly, Rayna Dugan is a force to be reckoned with - even in heels.
 But when her plans for the evening suddenly involve defending her life against a criminal empire, Rayna knows she needs backup. Suddenly the choice she made to leave Ty and her old mercenary team in Montana seems like a bad call. She’s been running from her feelings for the tough, rugged man, but Rayna needs Ty now more than ever. Yet when Ty becomes the new target, his help could mean his death…
 Ex-cop Ty Whitlock has spent the last six years waiting for his past to catch up with him. When it finally does, he isn’t expecting the woman he loves-the one who walked out on him-to be caught in its web. He knows she’s moved on, but he can’t help but want one more chance with the petite beauty. Ty’s only got one choice: find Rayna and keep her safe. But that’s the easy part. Once he finds her, can he convince her to stay?
~~~~~

Well Ladies...Dixie Lee does it again, with a great cast of characters (some of my favorites from the Trust No One Series...Walker perhaps). 

Great storyline with plenty of twists and turns to keep me guessing, and the chemistry between Ty and Rayna was sweet, sexy and ready to combust!  I love when I read a Romance Suspense and I am kept on my toes and that's what you will get with IF YOU ONLY KNEW, the newest release in the TRUST NO ONE Series.

Kinda hoping that Nate will get his own book...Guess I'll have to wait and find out!

It started with a kiss… 
Having left his humanitarian posting in Africa to raise his two orphaned nieces in San Francisco, Dr. Gavin Brice has enough on his plate without an inconvenient attraction to his new boss! The frosty Dr. Virginia Potter clearly disapproves of his maverick ways - but with one amazing kiss, the ice begins to thaw….

~~~~~
Meet Dr. Gavin Brice

Dr. Gavin Brice is the hero from MELTING THE ICE QUEEN’S HEART. Every time I start a new book I always start a Pinterest board up so I can visualize the characters more.
And when I was writing Melting I visualized Kevin McKidd from Grey’s Anatomy as Dr. Gavin Brice, because Gavin was a ginger hero and Kevin McKidd is the handsomest ginger man I’ve seen a long while.

 


Only Gavin isn’t Scottish.
He’s American, from Montana. He doesn’t like city life and raising his nieces was never his plan. His plan was to continue to travel the globe, live out of his rucksack and provide medical care to developing countries.
His mission in life was humanitarian work.
He raised his sister when he was younger and he doesn’t have much faith in the traditional family. There are no plans to settle down.
Of course, that all changes when his widowed sister succumbs to cancer, leaving his two little nieces orphans in San Francisco. He returns to raise his nieces, but he bucks at the confines of a hospital setting.
He hates all the rules and regulations. He’s so used to working in hostile environments where you used what you had available and did what was necessary to save the patient’s life.
He drives a motorcycle, except when he’s driving his nieces to Girl Scouts and school. Then he drives his sister’s minivan.
He loathes the color pink, because he seems to be saturated in it in his new life as guardian, but he puts up with it.
Gavin’s rough around the edges, but there’s a soft spot. One only a complete opposite can reach and that’s my heroine Dr. Virginia Potter, the Chief of Surgery and his boss.
I adored the chemistry between Dr. Gavin Brice and Dr. Virginia Potter and I hope you do too.

There are no mulligans in love.

Drew's life just got a whole lot harder. Her relationships are falling apart, her little sister is failing math, and her parents are leaving for Florida to take care of Grandpa. Now not only does she have to play surrogate parent, study to graduate from her last semester of college, and deal with the looming threat of full-on adulthood, she has to do it all while running the family's mini-golf course by herself. Even the upbeat Drew is starting to feel like she just drove her ball down the un-fairway.

Her luck takes a turn when she meets Weston, the snarky geometry teacher. He's smart, capable, dependable, and handsome—a real hole in one. But even Weston has a few hazards of his own. Now Drew will have to decide whether his secret is the wedge that drives them apart, or pushes them together.


~~~~~

A New Adult without all the angst....YAY!!  What a great romance Crystal Donahue has here.  ABOVE PAR was part sweet, with a splash of sexy and a whole lotta romance.  Drew was a great heroine, she was hard-working, tried her best to be a "good daughter/sister" and finally might have found the "Guy of her dreams"...But could he be hiding a secret?

Weston...Swoony Swoon...Who doesn't like a sexy geometry teacher with killer dimples!  I knew there was something fishy from the beginning, but I couldn't put my finger on it.  Crystal Donahue does a fabulous job at keeping us hanging on like a teenage girl to her first bad-boy crush.  But didn't DRAGGGGGG out the drama, it was a smooth ride the whole way through, a I thoroughly enjoyed the ride!

Highly recommended read from A Tasty Read and I will be on the lookout for more by Crystal Donahue in the future.  I am kinda hoping she will give Max and Stacey their own book...but only time will tell!!

Seventeen years of loving is a hard habit to break…
Meryl thought things couldn’t get any worse. She’s caught her husband in bed with the neighbor. She just found out she’s broke. Then her outrageous mother, Faye, shows up.
Faye wants to be a grandmother and has money to loan so it’s hard to say no. But what Meryl doesn’t know is that Faye, a former stripper and born again Christian, plans on opening an exotic dance and women's fitness studio in Meryl’s affluent suburban community.
When Meryl’s book club gets roped into promoting the studio by dancing at a charity tea, they discover that their laced up ‘burb isn’t as proper as they think. As her husband fights to win her back, Meryl grows increasingly attracted to a handsome sheriff, recovering from his own loss. As a crisis looms, Meryl must face her demons from the past. But first she has to get through Christmas.
Funny, sad and sweet, Divine Moves reveals the forces that derail our lives and the sometimes divine intervention that keeps us on track.

Meeting Faye and other Death-Defying Acts 
by Ellyn Oaksmith
“Do you mind if I smoke?” were the first words out of her mouth. She added, “Never mind. I quit. Yesterday. Okay, so maybe I had one this morning but it didn’t count ‘cause I only smoked half. A waste of money. But I gotta quit. I’m living with my daughter,” at this she rolls her eyes. “She’s got a rule about everything. You know, we run this dance studio.” She looks me up and down as if to gauge my squeamishness. “Boudoir dancing. You know: on poles and stripping. Women only. It’s a classy place. You can go, get a sweat on and no one will judge you. We got some heavy ladies, let me tell you. They know how to shake it. And this one Asian girl, my God, it’s like someone’s holding a Bic lighter under her hoohaw. She’s here and she’s there, she’s shaking in so many places I thought we had an earthquake. God’s my witness.” Faye looks around as if she thinks someone else is in the room. “You ever talk to Jesus?”
I shake my head. “He’s all around you know.” Faye says. “I’ve heard,” is my well thought out response. I’ve never had an interview quite like this.
“Anyway, in the dressing room, she’s got rules posted on the wall. Laminated. Lord that woman loves her laminator. You better keep moving or she’s gonna laminate you. Anyway, the rules: You can’t leave your workout clothes there. You can’t use your phone in the changing room. You can’t eat in the dressing room.” Faye raises her hand. “I swear to God. Like what does she think? Some woman’s gonna eat a hoagie before putting on her tap pants? What is she thinking? And the lists. Don’t get me started on the lists. She has lists of her lists.”
When asked how she likes living with her daughter, Faye immediately responds, “I’m looking for my own place. It’s hard though because the studio isn’t making that much money yet. And I do like seeing my grandkids. It’s like I’m making up for lost time. My granddaughter, Nathalie, she reminds me of me. You know all tough and the attitude and everything. She’s got balls. It’s her I don’t want to catch me smoking. My grandson, Henry, he’s more bookish like but he’s a lot of fun too. I got him this skateboard for Christmas. Well, actually this is the second one. The first one- well, it’s gone. Anyway, I take him skateboarding and then we go get a Snapple and talk. You get kids away from their parents and they really talk to you. They went through a hard time, with their parents’ going through all that and now it seems like they’re both opening up a little. Henry talks to me about what happened the night his father – well, that’s another long story. Let’s just say it’s been a very eventfulish year. I got lucky with my kids but lemme tell you, it doesn’t take much before kids start to drift. You look away, they’re 18 miles off the coast and you don’t know how it happened.
“That’s the thing about drinking,” she continues, “It sucks time out of your life that you don’t never get back. I mean you only got one life and when you drink the way I drank, well, time you can lose entire years just like that. God gave me two girls who went out and managed to thrive, despite me and lemme tell you, that makes my life worthwhile. I got two daughters that are…” she gets teary. “They are real women, you know.” She blows her nose. “So, I been blessed. Yeah. You could say that."
She looks me up and down again. “Say, you wanna take a class? I bet you’d like pole dancing. I mean, that gives you a core workout like nobody’s business. I just learned that that’s what it’s called. Back in the day we just called it dancing, you know.”
I decline and after a little while she believes me. “Tell people the name of the studio. It’s called Divine Moves and we got the best classes in town. My daughter has turned into a natural. She’s great.” She nods again. “Yeah, she’s great.”
She looks deep in thought again and I turn off the recorder.
“Now, you wanted to interview me. What are your questions?”
~~~~~

OK....So....I really, really enjoyed DIVINE MOVES.  Ellyn writes a funny, yet heartbreaking tale about a family overcoming some major issues, involving the relationships between husband and wife, parents and children, mother's and daughters...with some hysterical antics that if you picture in your head, you will be cracking up laughing. 


BUT.....and this is a HUGE pet peeve when it comes to reading for me, so fair warning to those readers who feel the same as me, HEAD HOPPING!!  I don't want to let this take away from the fact that I really liked the book, but the change of POV from sentence to sentence or paragraph to paragraph...it is just the one thing that really drives me crazy, so if you are like me, beware that this is the case.  Some readers don't care, but it is just something that I needed to point out.


Now that I am over that, DIVINE MOVES really was a fun women's fiction about "Healing", and how we overcome who we essentially are destined to become, and how a parent's life can effect the children (younger and older). 


I recommend DIVINE MOVES to my readers who are fans of funny, laugh-out-loud, women's fiction, that will touch the heart and leave you thinking about your own life!

I've been hooked on writing since 4th grade when my story of an alley cat was read in class as an example of a good scene setting. I just about fell off the chair in utter joy. I was a total goner when a film I'd written while at the American Film Institute was screened and people laughed. At the right places!
At Smith College I gave my professor a heart attack when I compared Tess of the D'Urbervilles, the book, to the movie.  
I write every day from 10-2 although while editing, it's much longer. I live in Seattle Washington with my family and my shelter dog who is my workout partner. I love to interact with readers on https://www.facebook.com/EllynOaksmith and http://ellynoaksmith.tumblr

When Darla kicks Kylie out and she loses her job all in the same day, she hops a bus to Nashville determined to make her late father’s dreams come true. Waitressing and saving her pennies to record a demo, her big break comes when she’s asked to join a tour going down the tubes with once platinum album-selling country music superstar Trace Corbin.

She's living her dream...

Kylie Ryans is the biggest thing to come out of Nashville since, well, since Trace Corbin. With a hit album and a powerful label behind her, she appears to be the girl who has it all.

But appearances can be deceiving.

Fresh out of rehab, Trace Corbin is ready to take on the world. Just not the girl he walked away from. Because if there's one thing he knows for certain, it's that the people you love are the ones who have the power to destroy you.

As their worlds collide, they'll have to make the ultimate choice. Follow their dreams, or give it all up for love.

They say love conquers all, but for Kylie and Trace, it just might wreck everything they've worked for.

~~~~~

Just wanted to say that I was SUCKED into this series from GIRL WITH GUITAR and immediately read book two, I think I finished them within a day.  I CAN'T WAIT for GIRL IN LOVE, and Feb 4th can't come soon enough!

The Series is sometimes sweet, sometimes spicy (ok...can be SUPER SPICY at some points), so not for your Younger Teens, but it is certainly fun, and sassy and will keep you reading late, and I mean LATE into the night!

Kylie is a strong girl, with a good head on her shoulder's and she meets Trace, who is going down a spiral, and it takes the love of a special person like Kylie to get him on a better path...but let's just say that path comes to an abrupt halt...Oohhh...I did NOT see the ending in GIRL ON TOUR coming, and I certainly hope that things will work out for Kylie and Trace, cause I certainly want them to be together, but without all the drama.

As a fan of the show NASHVILLE, I for one had a fabulous time reading about characters within the country music business.  I highly recommend this series to ALL readers, who are in the mood for something a bit different from the same ole' same ole' rock star romance!  The KYLIE RYANS SERIES has spunk, and heart and I want MORE MORE MORE!!

Sometimes forever is as easy as coming home …

For Trey DeLuca, the idea of settling down was entirely unsettling. As VP of sales for his family’s wine company, he’s never in any one city—or with any one woman—for long, which is how he likes it. But when family obligations keep him temporarily grounded in his hometown, he finds the perfect distraction. She’s sweet, gorgeous, and sexy as hell … only her life screams commitment.

Between raising her son and struggling to keep her dance school afloat, Sara Reed has her hands full. Dance students she needs—a steamy tangled sheets cha-cha with a self-admitted commitment-phobe? Not going to happen. But sparks fly as the town prepares for a big Valentine’s Day gala, and Trey strikes a deal with Sara … he’ll “manny-up” and watch her son in exchange for ballroom lessons.

With love quickstepping ever closer, Sara needs to teach this playboy some new steps or risk losing him—and her heart—forever.

~~~~~

Celebrate Valentine's Day a few weeks early with BE MINE FOREVER.  I was thrilled to be able to get an Advanced Copy of the fourth book in the St. Helena Vineyard Series by Marina Adair, because I am LOVIN the DeLuca brothers and Trey was the last to surrender to the Big Ole' "L"...Yes....I am talkin about LOVE!  And believe me, he didn't go down easy!

Well, the falling for Sara was the "easy" part, she made everything feel like being home, but it was the wanting to stay in one place that was the hard part!! This from a man who was the traveling "wine" salesmen...not one to stay in one place, which was the exact opposite of the widowed-single mother, who was finally settling down.  See where I am going with this...

Yes, I laughed, I cried, I laughed some more (the DeLuca Wives are hysterical, especially when they are pregnant, and Holly had me cracking up with her "Maternity Tea Parties".

Might I just say that Ms. Adair knows how to write a romance that will have your heart beating, melting, breaking and then healing!  Fabulous addition to the series!

If you haven't read the series, I suggest starting at book one so you have a chance to meet ALL the Sexy DeLuca brothers, BUT, if you are in the mood for a Sweet, Heartwarming, Valentines Day themed romance....grab BE MINE FOREVER today!!!

Frankie Baudouin has a hundred reasons not to trust Nate DeLuca. First, he’s a DeLuca. Second, he kissed her—in front of the entire town—and then never called. Oh, and he’s after her land. Sorrento Ranch is Frankie’s last chance to prove to her family—and to herself—that she has what it takes to be an award-winning winemaker. And she will stop at nothing to ensure her success—even if it means playing nice with the starched, sophisticated, and oh-so-sexy Italian.

For Nate, Sorrento Ranch is more than just soil and grape vines; it was his father’s dream—a dream Nate is determined to make a reality. So when he finds himself forced to cohabitate with a hot-headed, irrational, and incredibly gorgeous Baudouin, Nate is surprised to discover that chaos could be so much fun—especially when she sleeps in nothing but lace.

~~~~~


Ahh...I absolutely LOVED AUTUMN IN THE VINEYARD.  I think it is definitely my favorite so far in the St. Helena Vineyard Series by Marina Adair, and that is saying A LOT, cause these Romances contain some Smooth-Talking, Sexy, Smoldering Italian Men...and Nate is the Sexiest of the bunch...especially with that FINE BEHIND!!


Frankie was fabulous.  She had a HUGE heart, a Tough Girl Exterior with "DO NOT ENTER" practically written across her forehead, but a marshmallow center that Nate was trying (if not for the last decade) to get to, but breaking those walls was TOUGH! 


Their chemistry was off the charts SEXY....the sparks were practically flying from the pages!  But the best part was the quiet moments where Frankie just let Nate be there, and they both were able to let down their guards.  Those sweet moments stole my heart.


And who wouldn't LOVE Mittens...such a cute addition to the story and I can't wait to see more of Frankie and Nate in the next installment of the St. Helena Vineyard Series, which is BE MY FOREVER, Ladies-Man Trey DeLuca's Romance...Should be fun to see him fall!!


I for one am hoping that Marina gives Tanner and Abby a romance next...THAT should be a bumpy ride!!


Great Series, Great Characters and a whole LOTTA heart!!

Kaden Cross had it all: money, fame, and women, but he lost it all in one night. One night that would forever change him. Forced from obscurity and into the limelight as the lead singer of the band Mouth2Mouth, Kaden returns to the lifestyle that almost destroyed him. The last thing he wanted was to find a sexy drugged out redhead waiting for him in his bed. Finding out that she’s the victim of a sex slave ring, puts Mouth2Mouth in peril, because the only way to save the woman he’s started to love, means denying her the one thing she wants the most. Freedom.

Sawyer has had one dream her whole life, to escape the smothering love of her mother and a life of poverty. Her goal was just within her grasp when her world is turned upside down. Kidnapped and drugged, she is given to a man she knows nothing about except that he holds her life in his hands.

One night, and two lost souls with tainted lives, find a love strong enough to reveal a secret that just might kill them all.

When they reached town, Kaden pulled into the parking lot of a small shopping center. The store was tucked between a tattoo shop and a lingerie shop. Sawyer got off the bike as Kaden waited for her. Giving him a curious look, she wondered which shop he was going to. As they walked closer, she saw the one he was heading for was named Naughty Playground.



She was stumped until she drew closer to the sign on the door and saw that a whip outlined the letters on the sign.



“Hell no,” Sawyer said, turning around. She saw Alec and his men waiting inside their vehicle, staring at them. So help her God, if any of them grinned at her, she would kill Kaden.



“Sawyer.” Kaden drew her attention back to him. “You have ten minutes while I wait out here to go in and find what you want me to use when I punish you. I’m not fond of using a hair brush. If you don’t find something appropriate in ten minutes, I’ll come in and you won’t be happy with my choice. Talk back to me and I’ll go inside and make my choice and you’ll really be unhappy.” Kaden reached into his pocket and pulled out some cash, handing it to her. He then crossed his arms over his chest.



Sawyer hesitated.



“Tick Tock,” Kaden said.

About Jamie Begley


I was born in a small town in Kentucky. My family began poor, but worked their way to owning a restaurant. My mother was one of the best cooks I have ever known, and she instilled in all her children the value of hard work and education.

Taking after my mother, I’ve always loved to cook, and became pretty good if I do say so myself. I love to experiment and my unfortunate family has suffered through many. They now have learned to steer clear of those dishes. I absolutely love the holidays and my family puts up with my zany decorations.

For now, my days are spent at work and I write during the nights and weekends. I have two children who both graduate next year from college. My daughter does my book covers, and my son just tries not to blush when someone asks him about my books.

Currently, I am writing three series of books- The Last Riders that is fairly popular, The Dark Souls series, which is not, and The VIP Room, which we will soon see. My favorite book I have written is Soul Of A Woman, which I am hoping to release during the summer of 2014. It took me two years to write, during which I lost my mother and brother. It’s a book that I truly feel captures the true depths of love a woman can hold for a man. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, I am an emotional writer who wants the readers to feel the emotion of the characters they are reading. Because of this, Teased is probably the hardest thing I have written.

All my books are written for one purpose - the enjoyment others find in them and the expectations of my fans that inspire me to give it my best. In the near future I hope to take a weekend break and visit Vegas (hopefully be next summer). Right now, I am typing away on Shade’s and Lily’s story and the beautiful Kentucky winter weather.
