EXCERPT REVEAL: Mercy by M.N. Forgy‏

EXCERPT

“We need to keep moving, I don’t have time to explain this over and over to you. I can’t penetrate your naive little brain any more than I have.” His Adam’s apple bobs, and he grips my cuffs, pulling me after him.

“Why do you have to be such an asshole!?” I yank back on the cuffs to get his attention.

Looking over his shoulder, he jabs, “I guess you just bring it out in me, Rookie.”

That stung.

We walk for what seems like forever, and not one car drives by. The moon is high in the sky, and the wind is beginning to blow with a chill that has me shrinking into myself to keep warm.

My emotions are a mess. I don’t know what to accept as truth, and what is a lie. I’m always so sure of everything, until Zeek walked in my life. Now, I know nothing about nothing.

A shiver trembles from my lips causing my teeth to clatter. Zeek looks over his shoulder and stops.

“You cold?”

“I’m fine.”

Ignoring me, he shimmies his leather cut off.

“Here, this will help.”

I shake my head and hold my cuffed hands up.

“No, really I’m fine.” The last thing I want is to wear the insignia of the club that just offed one of my family members.

His face hardens, his eyes narrowing in on me.

He grips my upper arm turning me forcefully, and places the warm leather on my back. The smell of cologne, worn leather, and a hint of mint cocoon me in a blanket of danger. I find it comforting, the lingering scent a warning of adventure and risk. It’s no surprise I crave an adrenaline rush, and Zeek is a non-stop high.

Peering up under my lashes I catch Zeek looking me over hungrily, the look in his eyes anything but earnest. They’re hooded and trailing up and down my body unforgivingly.

He's a biker. She's a Sheriff. 

She's in his world now, even if she doesn't want to be...

The conclusion of Zeek and Jillian’s epic biker romance releases April 4th!

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY #83 Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine and is where we can talk about books we are looking forward to being released.

Title: Stuck-Up Suit

Authors: Vi Keeland, Penelope Ward

Series: None

Expected publication: April 11th 2016

Goodreads

It started out like any other morning on the train.

Until I became mesmerized by the guy sitting across the aisle.

He was barking at someone on his phone like he ruled the world.

Who did the stuck-up suit think he was…God?

Actually, he looked like a God. That was about it.

When his stop came, he got up suddenly and left. So suddenly, he dropped his phone on the way out.

I might have picked it up.

I might have gone through all of his photos and called some of the numbers.

I might have held onto the mystery man’s phone for days—until I finally conjured up the courage to return it.

When I traipsed my ass across town to his fancy company, he refused to see me.

So, I left the phone on the empty desk outside the arrogant jerk’s office.

I might have also left behind a dirty picture on it first though.

I didn’t expect him to text back.

I didn’t expect our exchanges to be hot as hell.

I didn’t expect to fall for him—all before we even met.

The two of us couldn’t have been any more different.

Yet, you know what they say about opposites.

When we finally came face to face, we found out opposites sometimes do more than attract—we consumed each other.

Nothing could have prepared me for the ride he took me on. And I certainly wasn’t prepared for where I’d wind up when the ride was over.

All good things must come to an end, right?

Except our ending was one I didn't see coming.

What are you waiting on Wednesday???

Review: Never Never: Part Three (Never Never #3) by Colleen Hoover, Tarryn Fisher

Title: Never Never: Part Three
Authors: Colleen Hoover, Tarryn Fisher
Series: Never Never #3

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Goodreads | Amazon | B&N

New York Times bestselling authors Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher are back with the much-anticipated final installment in the Never Never novella series.
Together, Silas Nash and Charlize Wynwood must look deeper into the past to find out who they were and who they want to be. With time ticking down, the couple are in a race to find the answers they need before they lose everything. Can they regain what they once had? And will it restore who they once were?

Not exactly what I had in mind but still amazing!

The third part in the Never Never trilogy concludes the mystery surrounding Charlie and Silas’ lives.

I was waiting for this conclusion for quite some time and although I wasn’t impressed with the outcome I can’t say that I hated it! I know that a lot of readers were disappointed with the explanation provided for Charlie and Silas’ loss of memory and it might have been over the top but I just can’t judge the book as a whole just from its ending!

Having said that, I loved the first two parts of the trilogy and I even found the first half of the third part enjoyable. Our two protagonists wake up once again but something has changed this time. Although Charlie doesn’t realize it, Silas still remembers the past 48 hours. Why that is, he may not know but he intends to find out if he is to help Charlie break this circle.

Once again the book flows beautifully. Fast paced with Charlie and Silas fighting against time to stop whatever it is that is happening to them. The big questions of the book are answered pretty early in the book so you’re left wondering now what?! Fear not, the mystery may have been solved but Silas and Charlie will have to help each other “heal” so they will never have to face something like this again.

So, yeah, did enjoy the trilogy even though the explanation for the memory loss wasn’t convincing but to tell you the truth almost everything would have been unconvincing! I especially liked Silas’ guesses: an alien abduction, a curse, time travel or twin brain tumors. As fun as some of these may sound, they are still hard to believe as was the actually explanation provided.

All in all, the end wasn’t that bad. We still get to meet Charlie and Silas, we got to experience their unusual memory loss and we got to witness their HEA. At the end of the day that’s all that matter to me.

As the president of the Sin City Outlaw Motorcycle Club, l fuck as hard as I ride and rarely go to bed alone.
The women are fast and the violence is intense.
I excel in both.
People either respect me or fear me. I'm not arrogant. It’s just the truth.
I was a king, reigning over Vegas without complication, until one gorgeous sheriff made everything fall apart.
When I saw her, I became a Neanderthal, wanting nothing more than to be between those legs.
I guess that’s where I went wrong, because my reality was shot to hell real
fucking fast.
One kiss caused her to step over that blue line.
One night in her bed made me a traitor.
And now… we’re both screwed.

Review: Appealed (The Legal Briefs #3) by Emma Chase

Title: Appealed
Author: Emma Chase
Series: The Legal Briefs #3

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Goodreads | Amazon | B&N | BookDepo

When Brent Mason looks at Kennedy Randolph, he doesn’t see the awkward, sweet girl who grew up next door. He sees a self-assured, stunning woman…who wants to crush the most intimate - and prized - parts of his anatomy beneath the heels of her Christian Louboutins.
Brent has never let the loss of his leg in a childhood accident affect his ability to lead a fulfilling life. He sets high goals–and then he reaches them.
And now he has his sights set on Kennedy.
**
When Kennedy looks at Brent Mason, all she sees is the selfish, Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue-worthy teenager who humiliated her in high school to join the popular crowd. A crowd that made those years a living hell.

She’s not a lovesick social outcast anymore - she’s a DC prosecutor with a long winning streak behind her. Brent is the opposing attorney in her next case and she thinks it’s time to put him through a little hell of his own.

But things aren’t exactly working out that way.

Because every fiery exchange has her wondering if he’s as passionate in the bedroom as he is in the courtroom. Each argument and objection only makes him want her more. In the end, Brent and Kennedy may just find themselves in love…or in contempt of court.

Holy cow!!!

Appealed is probably my fav book in the series! I say probably because I abso-f*cking-lutely loved Sustained but this was even beyond that one!

Enemies to lovers! Brent and Kennedy’s story was so much different from the previous two.

Brent and Kennedy have known each other since… forever. Having grown up next door to each other in their privileged world they soon become best friends with a bond promising much but every dream and promise shattered after their time at the same exclusive boarding school. Now, 14 years later, Brent is surprised to see Kennedy in the courtroom as the prosecutor on his current case.

Brent was the BEST! I really loved him! He was always so charming, funny and living his life at its fullest. He’s a successful criminal defense attorney but he’s so much fun. He’s loyal to his friends and thankful to have them in his life. Kennedy was in part as much fun as Brent but her past has left its mark on her. She cannot forgive Brent for all that happened 14 years ago even though she pretends to have left the past behind.

The chemistry between them was explosive! Really, I have no idea how Emma Chase manages to create and match her characters so perfectly! I enjoyed both of them so much. They were two incredible characters and you could really feel the tension between them.

Appealed was an incredibly heart-warming second chance love story, with realistic characters and a realistic plot. This was no first sight love! Brent and Kennedy have known each other since they were kids but that does not mean that they get back together as soon as they see each other. Their relationship tales time to develop and it was wonderful following their journey.

We also get to catch up with all the characters from the previous books, which was amazing, and as if that wasn’t incredible enough the author offers us an extended epilogue set into their future! Simply breathtaking!

The legal briefs series was a beautiful series and I can’t believe it’s over! I had so much fun reading Stanton and Sofia, Chelsea and Jake and now Brent and Kennedy’s stories that I definitely know I will be re-reading them soon-ish!

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY #83 The Glittering Court (The Glittering Court #1) by Richelle Mead

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine and is where we can talk about books we are looking forward to being released.

Title: The Glittering Court
Author: Richelle Mead
Series: The Glittering Court #1

Expected publication: April 5th 2016

Goodreads

Big and sweeping, spanning the refined palaces of Osfrid to the gold dust and untamed forests of Adoria, The Glittering Court tells the story of Adelaide, an Osfridian countess who poses as her servant to escape an arranged marriage and start a new life in Adoria, the New World. But to do that, she must join the Glittering Court.

Both a school and a business venture, the Glittering Court is designed to transform impoverished girls into upper-class ladies capable of arranging powerful and wealthy marriages in the New World. Adelaide naturally excels in her training and even makes a few friends: the fiery former laundress Tamsin and the beautiful Sirminican refugee Mira. She manages to keep her true identity hidden from all but one: the intriguing Cedric Thorn, son of the wealthy proprietor of the Glittering Court.
When Adelaide discovers that Cedric is hiding a dangerous secret of his own, together, they hatch a scheme to make the best of Adelaide’s deception. Complications soon arise—first, as they cross the treacherous seas from Osfrid to Adoria, and later, when Adelaide catches the attention of a powerful governor.
But no complication will prove quite as daunting as the potent attraction simmering between Adelaide and Cedric. An attraction that, if acted on, would scandalize the Glittering Court and make them both outcasts in wild, vastly uncharted lands. . . .

Review: The Baller: A Down and Dirty Football Novel by Vi Keeland

Title: The Baller: A Down and Dirty Football Novel
Author: Vi Keeland
Series: None

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Goodreads | Amazon | B&N

The first time I met Brody Easton was in the men’s locker room.
It was my first interview as a professional sportscaster.
The famed quarterback decided to bare all.
And by all, I don’t mean he told me any of his secrets.
No. The arrogant ass decided to drop his towel, just as I asked the first question. On camera.
The Super Bowl MVP quickly adopted a new hobby—screwing with me.
When I pushed back, he shifted from wanting to screw with me, to wanting to screw me.
But I don’t date players.
And it’s not because I’m one of the few women working in the world of professional football.
I’d date an athlete.
It’s the other kind of player I don’t date.
You know the type. Good looking, strong, cocky, always looking to get laid.
Brody Easton was the ultimate player.
Every woman wanted to be the one to change him.
But the truth was, all he needed was a girl worth changing for.
Turned out, I was that girl.
Simple right?
Let’s face it. It never is.
There’s a story between once upon a time and happily ever after…And this one is ours.

Vi Keeland’s books always draw me in from the beginning. Once I read the blurb on Goodreads and add them on my tbr shelf, I know I’m going to (I must) buy them. The baller was no different!

I had so much FUN reading this book! Brody Easton, a quarterback is one cocky hero. Delilah a sports journalist who has worked really hard to get where she is and won’t let this arrogant womanizer destroy her reputation just for his fun. But Delilah is soon to discover that Brody does not play fair and he is not known for easily giving up. Well guess what neither is Delilah!

The baller was a lovable sports romance with two amazing characters who each had their own story. I loved that Delilah and Brody had such elaborated backgrounds. Finding about their past helped me understand them and their insecurities better which helped me enjoy the book more. This was such an easy read! It’s one of these books that simply flows and then once you have finished and realized that it’s been hours you just know it was simply worth it!

Get ready to fall for the one and only Brody Easton!
