Review

Micah is a hot mess!! I mean, I get it, he’s been through some stuff, and is still going through it. He and his brothers. But his walls, and issues, and outward image are no match for Vanya. The homesick, amazing, friendly Russian hockey player.


Vanya always seems to be where Micah needs him. Which, thank gawd, cuz Micah has a stalker, and OMG, I can’t imagine the terror of that, especially being blind. Not being able to see the danger, and having that blindness used as part of the torture. Gah.


While he stubbornly (I do mean stubborn) tries to deal with the issue by himself, Vanya refuses to let that happen.


As much as I loved seeing Micah let down is walls, I’m pretty in love with Vanya finding love, and a home.

Synopsis

“For five million dollars, would you send a relative to jail?”

"Bud, I would pay five million dollars to send a few there."


Problem number one: Almost everything the world thinks they know about me is a lie.

Problem number two: Two people know the truth.

Problem number three: One of those two is a stalker and he's having a blast using that information against me to get his way.


The good news is, the second person who knows the truth about who I am seems pretty dedicated to taking my stalker down.


The bad news is, it’s NHL goalie Vanya Maximov, and he and I had a one night stand that I can’t stop thinking about. And while Vanya might be walking sunshine so bright he can make even my blind ass see light, we have no business being together.


I’m a mess, and while Vanya is everything I’ve ever wanted in a partner, he deserves better than me.


If only he was willing to listen to reason. If only he was less stubborn and able to give up on a lost cause.


But with his ability to give me exactly what I want—a little pain with my pleasure—and his refusal to treat me like I’m fragile, something dangerous starts happening.


I’m beginning to think that maybe—just maybe—he’s right, and I am worth everything he sees.


Hat Trick is the second book in the Punk as Puck spin-off trilogy, Legends and Fury. It’s a high heat, friends to lovers romance with a sunshine NHL goalie who also might be a golden retriever in disguise, a PPHL goalie with big black cat energy, a stalker, and no faith in himself, hooking up in a friend’s car, praise and pain, high stakes romance, hockey bro banter, tons of chirping, and the swooniest happily ever after.

REVIEW: Resting Beach Face by DJ Jamison (Swallow Cove #4)

  RESTING BEACH FACE Swallow Cove - Book Four by DJ Jamison Release Date: February 20, 2025 Review Declan is so beautiful. Quiet, a little grumpy, a little withdrawn, and maybe a little lost and lonely. Then there’s Cash - outgoing, sexual, and completely obsessed with Declan.  It’s a slow burn. One that requires both of them to shift their understanding of each other, and time to truly learn and understand both themselves and the other. I love both the trajectory of the relationship as well as the life and home they build.  It’s a truly wonderful pairing that may be my favourite in the series. Sure I see a bit of myself in Declan, but I also just adore the way Cash grew and how they balanced each other. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis He could have anyone he wants...so why is he so interested in me? Cash is a gorgeous chaotic bi guy with a reputation for getting around. And me? I'm the antisocial grump, closed off and lonely. We should be like oil and water....

REVIEW: Mine to Keep by Davidson King (Saint Brothers #3)

  MINE TO KEEP Saint Brothers - Book Three by Davidson King Release Date: March 31, 2025 Review Is there anything more delicious than two men who are attracted to each other but are fighting it, especially when it also involves the battle of a good but morally grey man and another who has a black-and-white view of what is right and wrong?  It creates some amazing tension. As the Saint Brothers continue to fight for those that need it, they, and especially Nick, find themselves in a predicament where the one that needs him, doesn’t want his brand of help.  But let's be honest, how could you not fall for the over-eager and stubborn man? Matt is lovely and I feel bad about not just his situation but that he had to have his eyes opened to the darkness most don’t see. But also, it’s satisfying to see his world expand.

REVIEW: All I Fear by Abrianna Denae (All's Fair #2)

  ALL I FEAR All’s Fair - Book Two by Abrianna Denae Release Date: September 19, 2023 Review protective, possessive and violent men.  Tennant and Hollis are an incredible pair. Kinky in the wildest way, they are everything and I adored them (even if slightly disturbed too).   Roman is heir to the Amato family and Tennant, as second in command, must shape him into the man he needs to be to one day takeover. Roman is a bit bratty and wild. Truthfully I don’t really care for him, but he certainly makes for an interesting dynamic to both Tennent and Hollis’ lives. I also love the addition of the odd chapter by other people’s view points, it adds a really interesting dynamic and keeps you tied to all the characters in the series. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Tennant Mason is the Amato Family’s Second in Command. He’s calculating and lethal, his antisocial personality disorder provides him with the perfect tools for the Amatos to turn him into their deadlie...
