Book Review: What He Always Knew by Kandi Steiner

What He Always Knew (What He Doesn't Know Duet #2)

Left or right. 

It’s that simple, and it isn’t simple at all.

If I turn left, the road will lead me back to the man I promised my life to, the one I’d imagined building a family with, the one who’s done everything in his power to get me back.

If I turn right, the road will take me to the man I loved first, the man who brought me back to life, the man who would do anything to keep me.

I knew the fork in the road was inevitable; it was the decision I never wanted to make between choices I didn't know I had. 

And I love them both.

My heart is destined to exist in two equal halves — one with each man. But one half beats stronger, the vein running deepest, and holds my choice in silence long before I know it for myself. 

The realization of what I have to do, of the heart I have to break, just might break mine too. 

Left or right. 

All I have to do is take a breath and turn.


After finishing What He Doesn't Know, I was dying to get my hands on the final book in this duet. I had no idea who Charlie was going to pick, but I definitely had a favorite. As soon as I started this book, though, all of my previous opinions flew out the window and I was an emotional mess. 

Reese or Cameron? The boy she's always loved or the man she's promised her life to? Charlie doesn't know who she is or even who she wants to be in the future, all she knows is that she has to decide. But choosing one path will break hearts and choose a destiny she can't take back. 

When I read the first book in this duet, I felt like I was missing the angst everyone was raving about with these books. Nothing felt angsty to me and I felt like there was an obvious choice Charlie had to make. Um, yeah, I was SO WRONG. This book hit me so hard with the angst and I was on the verge of tears so many times. While love triangles are taboo in the book world now, the triangle in this book was done so well that I didn't even know who I wanted Charlie to choose. Seriously, I was going to be mad at her no matter which one she chose because we got to see into each of the men's minds and really fall for each of them. 

Since our characters are older (in their 30s), I appreciated how mature the romance was and how the characters didn't think in the moment like a lot of young romance protagonists do. These characters have lived lives, experienced loss, and made some hard decisions that affected not only them, but everyone around them. I was hooked on Charlie's story and had no idea how she could make any decision. There were moments I gasped, moments I had tears in my eyes, and moments where I was swooning over something both men did. To say this was an emotional rollercoaster would be an understatement. 

If you haven't picked up this duet yet, WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? This book takes a hard look at what it means to truly love someone and give yourself over to them. And, just like life, there is so much gray that it's impossible to know what's right or wrong, what you should do and what you shouldn't do. Kandi Steiner gets romance and she takes no reservations when it comes to ripping out your heart and putting it back together again.

Book Review: Long Shot by Kennedy Ryan

Long Shot (Hoops #1)
by Kennedy Ryan
Release Date: March 22, 2018
Source: Author
A Standalone FORBIDDEN LOVE SET IN THE EXPLOSIVE WORLD OF THE NBA...

Think you know what it's like being a baller's girl?
You don't.
My fairy tale is upside down.
A happily never after.
I kissed the prince and he turned into a fraud.
I was a fool, and his love - fool's gold.

Now there's a new player in the game, August West. 
One of the NBA's brightest stars.
Fine. Forbidden. 
He wants me. I want him.
But my past, my fraudulent prince, just won't let me go.



As you guys may know, I'm a HUGE sports romance fan, so when I heard about this basketball romance coming from Kennedy Ryan, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Little did I know, this would be SO MUCH more than a sports romance and it would be AMAZING. 

The moment August laid eyes on Iris, he couldn't ignore the instant attraction. The chemistry. The feeling like they'd known each other their whole lives and were meant to be. Too bad she was someone else's girl. 

Holy moly. This book. Wow. I was in love with this story from the first page, but it turned serious very quickly and I was still hooked. I will say there is domestic abuse in this story, so go in knowing that. What these characters go through is heartbreaking and I was SO IN LOVE with August. Seriously, he was one of the sweetest, most perfect heroes I've read about in awhile. It was so sad watching him love Iris and having no idea why he couldn't have her. 

Honestly, there isn't much more I can say without spoiling this story. I loved all of the characters that were in Iris's life and how, even though a lot of time passes throughout this story, the pacing was perfect and we got to see the characters grow and change with life. I couldn't get enough of these characters and am so excited that this is a series! 

If you've been hearing hype about this book, trust me, it is so well deserved. The romance will break your heart and make you swoon all within the pages of this book. I can't recommend Long Shot enough!

Book Review: Murder Notes by Lisa Renee Jones

Murder Notes (Lilah Love #1)
by Lisa Rene Jones
Release Date: March 27, 2018
Source: Publisher
New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones’s heart-pounding thriller of a woman’s secrets—and a past that’s about to come out of hiding…

As an FBI profiler, it’s Lilah Love’s job to think like a killer. And she is very good at her job. When a series of murders surface—the victims all stripped naked and shot in the head—Lilah’s instincts tell her it’s the work of an assassin, not a serial killer. But when the case takes her back to her hometown in the Hamptons and a mysterious but unmistakable connection to her own life, all her assumptions are shaken to the core.

Thrust into a troubled past she’s tried to shut the door on, Lilah’s back in the town where her father is mayor, her brother is police chief, and she has an intimate history with the local crime lord’s son, Kane Mendez. The two share a devastating secret, and only Kane understands Lilah’s own darkest impulses. As more corpses surface, so does a series of anonymous notes to Lilah, threatening to expose her. Is the killer someone in her own circle? And is she the next target?



I am a huge fan of murder mysteries and detective stories, but for some reason I never read them. When I had the chance to read Murder Notes, it sounded like it was going to be an intriguing, action-packed thriller and I couldn't wait to read it. 

Lilah Love is trained to get into the minds of killers and track them down. That's why she's so good at being an FBI agent. But when a series of murders link back to her past and her hometown, Lilah knows she has to go back home and investigate. She is certain the person they're looking for is an assassin, not a serial killer, but she has to return to the Hamptons and dig into the people of her past to know for sure. Lilah is forced to confront the secret she holds with Kane Mendez, the son of a crime lord, while trying to figure out who she can trust now and who could be the very person she is looking for. 

How is this book labeled a thriller? Because not a single page in this book was thrilling. When the book first started and Lilah was at the crime scene examining the newest dead body, I was so ready for this story. I couldn't wait for Lilah to investigate and uncover the killer. But when she arrived at the Hamptons, NOTHING HAPPENED. So much of this book was literally Lilah sitting in her office or sitting a a diner thinking. Her big, dark secret from the past was beat over our heads and I was so annoyed when we were never told what really happened or why until very late in the book. I felt like it was being used as a crutch to keep our interest and it just got annoying. 

Also, when Lilah arrived in the Hamptons, there were so many characters thrown at us that Lilah was thinking about and they were so hard to keep straight. I feel like we really only got a surface level impression of them, too, because we really only got to know people based on what Lilah thought about them and how she categorized them in her investigation. And I don't know if I missed something, but I am still so clueless about the investigation and who could have even done it or anyone's connection to it. I felt no intrigue towards this story and I honestly didn't even care about who was even behind the murders by the end. 

If you can't tell, this one was a huge miss for me. I had such high expectations going in and I found a story that was boring and lacked any action. While I haven't read that many thrillers, this one just didn't seem thrilling and lost my interest in the end.

Cover Reveal: Needing Him by Kennedy Fox

 
We are thrilled to bring you the sexy new cover from the bestselling duo Kennedy Fox for their upcoming release NEEDING HIM releasing on APRIL 17th!





Photographer: Wander Aguiar 
Model: Drew Leighty 
Designer: RBA Designs 
Release Date: April 17, 2018 
*Each Bishop Brothers novel is an interconnected standalone*


     

Evan Bishop is your typical hotshot doctor. 
Hardass, brooding, and all business. 

Instead of working on the family ranch, Evan broke the mold and became an ER doctor. 
He’s good with his hands—in more ways than one—smart as a whip and is the definition of God’s gift to women. Being a gentleman is in his Southern roots, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t flawed. Exclusive dating has never been a top priority and his tragic past makes him stay at arm’s length. Deciding to let loose for a wild night, he takes a page from the Bishop brother’s relationship book and hooks up with a mysterious girl he’ll never have to see again, which is perfect for this self-proclaimed bachelor. 

Emily Bell is a city girl through and through but is determined to get away from her family and past. All she wants is a fresh start and to make a name for herself in the medical field. No random hookups and no dating coworkers—that’s her new motto after being burned time and again. When she agrees to attend a wedding as a plus-one, she’s soon ditched and left to drink solo—but not for long. Mr. Suit is the ultimate temptation with his Southern charm, messy blond hair, and irresistible sex appeal. Everything about him screams bad news, but he makes her reconsider her rules just for one night. 

After all, some rules are made to be broken.

They want the same thing—one night of passion then they’ll go their separate ways. No cuddling afterward. No next day phone calls. No awkward goodbyes. Too bad the universe has other plans—one that’ll be obvious when they report to work on Monday morning. 

*A contemporary romance with a little Southern drama. This is book 2 in the Bishop Brothers series. Each book features a different brother and can be read as a complete standalone. HEA guaranteed!*
Not suitable for readers under 18 due to adult language and sexual content.

WHDK cover FINAL_1

On the northeast side of town, there is a house. The house was once magical, filled with love and joy and plans for the future. Inside its walls are many things that belong to me — my books, the china from my mother on my wedding day, the beautiful cage once home to two birds, now empty, just like me. And a man. A man who also belongs to me. A man I no longer wish to keep. A man who, no doubt, has not slept, though the sun is rising. Because the house where he waits is where I laid my head to rest every night for eight years. Until last night. No one who knows me would believe Charlie Pierce, the quiet, bookish girl who never made waves is pulling out of the driveway of a man who isn’t her husband. But they don’t know me at all. I don’t even know me. Not anymore. They say there are two sides to every story, and I suppose in most cases, that’s true. But the one I live inside of? It has three. On the northeast side of town, there is a house. But there is no longer a home.

Book Review: What He Doesn't Know by Kandi Steiner

What He Doesn't Know (What He Doesn't Know Duet #1)
by Kandi Steiner
Release Date: March 15, 2018
Source: Author
On the northeast side of town, there is a house.

The house was once magical, filled with love and joy and plans for the future. 

Inside its walls are many things that belong to me — my books, the china from my mother on my wedding day, the beautiful cage once home to two birds, now empty, just like me.

And a man.

A man who also belongs to me.

A man I no longer wish to keep.

A man who, no doubt, has not slept, though the sun is rising. Because the house where he waits is where I laid my head to rest every night for eight years. Until last night.

No one who knows me would believe Charlie Pierce, the quiet, bookish girl who never made waves is pulling out of the driveway of a man who isn’t her husband.

But they don’t know me at all.

I don’t even know me.

Not anymore.

They say there are two sides to every story, and I suppose in most cases, that’s true. But the one I live inside of? It has three.

On the northeast side of town, there is a house.

But there is no longer a home.



Every time a new Kandi Steiner books comes out, my hands start itching to get ahold of it. Kandi always delivers on the emotion and I had a feeling that this one would not disappoint! 

Charlie can't remember the last time she smiled and meant it. She can't remember the last time she felt truly loved by her husband. She can't remember the last time she lived. When Reese comes flying back into her life after 14 years, Charlie fights the urge to learn how to live again. Because learning to live again could ruin her marriage forever. 

Going into this one, I wouldn't say I was hesitant, but I was worried about the whole cheating aspect. I mean, our heroine was married and a guy from her past shows up and makes her question everything. But as soon as we got into the story, all thoughts of right and wrong are thrown out the window. Because there is no right or wrong. The lines are blurred so much in this story and, as the reader, you really have no idea who you want to choose for Charlie. She goes through so much in this story and I felt for her the entire time. 

While I love the fun NA books from Kandi, What He Doesn't Know is a mature look at what it really means to love someone and be with them. I loved how the characters were older than your typical romance out there (30 and 35) and how they had to battle with emotions while trying to decide if they wanted to put themselves first or stay loyal to their promises. Also, all of the characters were professional working adults with obligations, which made this book so realistic. They all also had some serious heartbreak and hardships in their past that greatly affected how they acted and felt in the present. Instead of dumping all of that information on us, though, we got to learn about the characters and their pasts through their interactions and conversations with one another, which I absolutely loved. I felt more immersed in their lives instead of an outsider looking in. 

I am in love with every word Kandi writes and this book is no different. With emotion, blurred lines between right and wrong, and a heart wrenching romance, you have to pick up What He Doesn't Know. And since this is a duet, be prepared to have your heart obliterated at the end of this book and dying for book two!

Wait With Me by Amy Daws releases April 5!

WWM-Wrap-small

When romance novelist, Kate Smith, finds her long lost writing mojo in the customer waiting area of a tire store, the complimentary coffee isn’t the only things that’s hot. But sexy mechanic, Miles Hudson, is just up for a friendly test-drive of her new book idea. At least, that was the agreement.

add to tbr 
⬇︎⬇︎⬇︎ 

WWM-Front-small

Full Blurb

When romance novelist, Kate Smith suddenly gets writers block as she's beginning the final installment of her international bestselling erotic Bed N Breakfast series, she'll do pretty much anything to get her groove back.

Like sneak into a Tire Depot waiting room, because her words flow there just like complimentary coffee—smooth, sweet, and scorchingly hot.

She manages to fly under the radar until the rugged and charming mechanic, Miles Hudson, notices the quirky redhead slinking in and out of the employees only entrance.

But she's way too intriguing to blow the whistle on.

Doing a test-drive of her new book idea sounds like a much better option.

Author QandA
Scared woman lying in bed and hiding under the sheet 

Q: This book says “based on real-life experiences” …what does that mean? 
A: Wellllll…let’s put it this way, the dedication to my book says: This book is inspired by real life events. Except for all the hot and romantic parts. My life is not nearly that exciting. So basically, it’s true that I snuck into a tire shop waiting room to write. And I brought countless friends and family cars in to write, just so I had an excuse to come in. But sadly, there was never a hot mechanic that caught my eye and wanted to jump into a friends-with-benefits situation with me. I’m pretty sure my husband would have wanted me to take a hard pass on an offer like that. ;) 

Q: What inspired you to turn this experience into a story? 
A: Wellllll, my agent initially! I started posting about my Tires Tires Tires excursions on social media and it sort of blew up. Like over 500 reactions to my posts when I was sneaking in…it was crazy. I’d never had so much social media engagement ever! And my agent was like, “Why are you not writing a book about a hot mechanic, Amy!” So, I decided to give it a whirl and let’s just say, the words flowed like that delicious complimentary coffee at TTT. 

Q: Why do you think it flowed so effortlessly? 
A: Well, I’m American and the majority of my books take place in England so that comes with a lot of challenges to make sure I’m writing true to their dialect. Basing Wait With Me in Colorado and using my own dialect was so fun and refreshing. It’s probably why I wrote it so fast! And I took a lot of the same crazy things that happened to me at Tires Tires Tires and used them in the story, so that gave me a great running start on the story. 

Q: Since this book is based on your own experiences, how much is the heroine like yourself? 
A: Kate’s voice is a lot like mine. Her humor, her sass. Her reactions. But honestly, that’s where our similarities end. She’s a redhead and she’s from Colorado her family isn’t very supportive of her career. My family is crazy supportive—so her background is truly very different from mine. As the book progressed, she really became her own person. She was super fun though and easy for me to write. 

Q: That cover is HOT! Who is the model? Is it a real Tires Tires Tires mechanic? 
A: Sadly, no. There’s a bunch of fun guys that work at TTT but I see them more as fun uncles…not sexy mechanics. The model is Austin Loes and he lives nearby, so we got to do the shoot in the TTT garage! It was a blast and he is PERFECT for this cover!!! 

Q: Does this book have potential to become a series? 
A: It does! There’s a couple of fun secondary characters in this novel that I’d love to tell their stories. And the recurring theme in the series would be that all the “meet cutes” happen in various waiting rooms.

Q: Where can readers catch up on the truth-life Tires Tires Tires full story? 
A: I have a fun cliff notes version on my website: www.amydawsauthor.com/tirestirestires 

Q: Are you still spending your days writing at Tires Tires Tires? 
A: Duh! Complimentary coffee and cookies? I’d be a fool not to! Those guys at TTT have opened their arms to me and I love having a fun and unique writing place to go. It just goes to show that you can find inspiration in the most unlikely places.
