All-In (The Gamblers, #1) by Sarah Curtis @sarahcurtisathr

Oh my another favorite hero to add to my #PerfectAlpha shelf. Alec climbed to the top and won the hand of his life, Rivers heart and mine all on one deal of life's biggest game... Love.. River was everything I love in my heroine, she had that loyal heart and feisty, passionate nature. She was brave and I really understood her feelings of wanting to make her own way in the world. If there was one flaw to point out ,that would be her loyal heart forgot to teach her brother to make his own way too. That and her stubbornness pushed back against Alec sometimes so hard I wanted to shake her. But what shows Sarah's brilliant author mind is the fact you'll need some angsty push pull to get your hero to the chase and I want my hero to chase hard, never back down and Alec made every moment of River's hesitation worth it.      So that's when I tell you Sarah is an author after my heart. Add in sizzling hot passion, crazy epic suspense and the fact she made poker interesting ,well this book was just everything I could want.    Then I get a little ironic gift of my name hidden in the book.. Even if it was an accident I'll take it.   Now give me Nico because Sarah if anyone can lower the walls of a Mafia hero by a woman who'll give him the fight of his life I know you can. I've got a short list of #autoread authors that I literally stalk daily for updates. I don't just love their work but I love them as people and consider them friends. Sarah is right there in my top 4 and once you get a glimpse of her imagination you'll see why. Pure class that's what she is.. In every way.

Checked Into Love (Bachelorette Party #2) by Rochelle Paige @RochellePaige1

Rochelle Paige is like the best example of what I love in romance. Each story she gives me low drama, high passion and beautiful connections. Cecily and Jason had me devouring their story at a rapid pace. These two were on fire.. And then they simmered for 9 months proving one thing ..when it's real romance ..they both can wait and aren't satisfied until they find each other again. From faithful and devoted friends to one amazing twist with Jason's mom.. I simply have zero complaints.  True safety readers like myself want devoted heroes who know what they want. Rochelle gets it and for that reason she's an #autoread and #topfav author always. Now my brilliant, creative and dear sweet friend how will you take the adorable Alec and bring him down a notch or ten? I definitely can't wait.. I need more now.

Freeze Frame (Snapshot, #1) by Freya Barker & KT Dove @Freya_Barker

I had high expectations after Shutter Speed gave me a glimpse into how amazing Ben and Isla were together. Well those high hopes weren't just filled they were blown sky high in a phenomenal way.    Ben was the perfect balance of mysterious alpha who showed his heart by actions. When he decides to grace you with words though you'd better be listening because every syllable counts.  Isla was sometimes a contradiction but really in the most human way.  Strong yet vulnerable with a side of quirky to give her a sense of down to earth I like in my heroines. The suspense nearly gave me a heart attack and at one point I wanted to bleach my brain but thankfully this author team kept it to the bare minimum of details when I didn't think I could take anymore. I'm so thrilled at all the cameo appearance of my favorite characters of Freya's GFI hot bunch. I can't wait for more right now especially for Stacy and Jen to find there own heroes. Loved this story so much.  Great job ladies.

His Alone (For Her #2) by Alexa Riley @_AlexaRiley

Ryan and Paige were a couple whose story I anticipated it seems like forever. When two characters nearly steal the spotlight from another couples story you know they are special. The obsessed hero is Alexa Riley's trademark. Ryan or Captain has truly won the award of perfect stalker hero. It's not a bad thing when you are given a hero who would do anything for the love of the women he can't live without. This guy mesmerized me every time he touches or talked to Paige. His love was fierce and all consuming.    I’m a selfish beast, because I know exactly what I’m doing. I will dominate every inch of her if it means she can’t ever walk away from me. I simply loved him so much.    I anxiously await more from this dynamic writing team. They simply get what this romantic reader wants and they deliver every time.

An Act of Courage (Acts of Honor #4) by K.C. Lynn @AuthorKCLynn ‏

There is no doubt that KC Lynn is one of my top favorite authors ever. I've loved everything she's gifted us with. Just when I think she can't top herself she goes and proves me wrong. The depth of true emotion and beauty that she infuses into every page, chapter and moment shines so bright. If words can be felt like a physical caress then you'd definitely feel the warmth and love coming from just the opening page to the soul deep heart stealing epic ending on the last.    I stopped and closed my eyes and just cried with every kind of feeling as Christopher and Alissa's story came to the end. I felt entirely too much to put into words.  The fact that Ms Lynn shows the ugly and the beauty of humanity while also healing the readers heart right along with her characters shows the true testament of a greatly gifted storyteller. I felt the regret by this hero and felt the pain and confusion of this heroine as if I was experiencing it first hand.  Mistakes define us a greatly or even more so than our success. To see a truly spectacular connection like these two be ripped apart yet completely restored stronger than ever was so profound. In every chapter there was growth and healing. The way this author combines romance with the passion of friendship and family will always be a magical thing. The gracious and truthful way she addresses PTSD and how it affects everyone around that person is spot on. As for romance she's right after my own heart. I simply can't say enough that if you want to know how a second chance story should be told well here's the best example.  Cade my heart still beats for you big guy but its only perfect that the man you raised, Christopher, would be the one to really battle for top favorite. I can't wait to see the hero who sweeps sweet fierce Ruthie off her feet. Bravo Ms Lynn you are phenomenal.     Look 😤 what's live. Need a book hangover 😍? Need an amazing hero? This book has caused me massive emotional upheaval in the most epic way only KC Lynn can. She weaves into your heart a tale that will stay there forever while leaving you with the feeling you've been taken on a journey that showed you that sometimes finding the rainbow means you've got to fight through the storm.    #epic #oneclicknow #newrelease #TopFav
