Hey everyone, I have an amazing book to share with you!

Riley and her coworker Jen stumbled upon a sign advertising a dive bar called the Wallabee Pub. A band announced as the Cocks was playing. Everyone was going MAD! clothes were flying, people were screaming and fights were started.

Riley was a business professional during the week but had a wild side on the weekends. Her Achilles heel, bad boys. So, when she heard the singers seductive voice she had to get a peek at the performer. When he came into view he noticed her too,made his way to her and whispered for her meet him backstage.

After a not so easy venture she made it backstage. However, when she learned what a jerk he was she decided to teach him an unforgettable lesson, never expecting to see him again.

Riley woke up the next morning with a hangover and an email from her boss informing her of an assignment, tour accountant for a band. While going over the paperwork the only clue as to the name of the band is HC.

The first day on the job she asked for bills and receipts and was advised to wait for Jax. When Riley and Jax recognized each other from that Saturday at the Wallabee they were both shocked.

Jax is a sexy hot rock star, women love him their boyfriends want to kick his ass.

Riley laid all the cards out on the table informing Jax she would not be mixing business with pleasure. What Jax heard is challenge accepted.

I LOVED THIS BOOK! This book was packed with laugh out load moments, smart ass banter, manipulation, romance, and an intense ending with a cliffhanger. This is the first book I have ever read from Ms. West and I look forward to reading more from her in the future!

HAPPY READING!!!!

Hey everyone, the book I have to share with you today is the final novella in the trilogy. This novella can be read as a stand alone but if you have not read the previous novellas, Her Best Shot and Her Perfect Game I highly recommend you doing so. I  wrote a review for Her Best Shot, the first novella in the trilogy on July 21, 2014 said to be released September 29, 2014. The second novella is Her Perfect Game, I wrote the review on August 30, 2014, said to be released October 27, 2014.


Her Winning Formula by Shannyn Schroeder

Three best friends were supposed to enjoy a final spring break vacation before they each divided and conquered their individual paths in adulthood.  However, their plans did not work out, leaving Felicity Stone to her own devices.

Felicity is a chemistry major who has a formula worked out for her life, graduate Harvard and work at her fathers lab creating her own fragrance. However, when it comes to meeting people she is not a social butterfly.

While waiting on a plane to get to South Padre Island, Texas. She unexpectedly meets Lucas Tanner, who informs her not to leave her bag unattended, as he cannot be late arriving to his destination.

Lucas Tanner is an attractive special education teacher and baseball coach, who has a fear of planes during take off and landing. Lucky for him Felicity is sitting next to him. Felicity is not much of a conversationalist except with her two best friends, but with Lucas she finds it enjoyably easy.

When Lucas learns that Felicity's plans of meeting up with her friends did not work out he asks her to be his fake date to his brothers wedding to avoid his ex who happens to be the maid of honor from trying to reconcile. 

Sometimes, the best times are not planned.

Isn't She Lovely By Lauren Layne

Hello Everyone, I hope you had a marvelous Labor Day! Goodbye August Hello September! So, lets kick this month off right!

Isn't She Lovely by Lauren Layne

When Stephanie and Ethan first bumped into each other they did not exactly hit it off. Unless you count trading jabs of sarcasm and stereotypes. So, when they find out they are not only in the same film class but are paired up to work on an assignment together  the crazy train is set in motion.

Stephanie Kendrick is intelligent yet she is the  keep to yourself type who would rather hide in corners than be the life of the party. She avoids her family like the plague so much so that she signed up for a summer film class and moved in with her cheating ex.

Ethan Price is the boy who has his it all including his future planned out from A-Z, has decided to take a break from family expectations and take a summer course.

When Stephanie and Ethan end up playing I will scratch your back if you scratch mine the claws come out. However, how deep will they go and when all is said and done what will remain in the end.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The chemistry between these two was perfect. I laughed so hard at their banter, felt compassion towards their situations and pulling for opposites to attract.


HAPPY READING!!!

Best Wishes Always,

Wicked Woman
