About NIGHTS WITH HIM:

I didn’t know who the smoldering man in the expensive suit was that first night.
Only that he was commanding.
Intense.
And exactly what I needed to forget my heartbreak.

But there’s no forgetting him the next day when Jack Sullivan walks into my office.
Philanthropic billionaire, brilliant businessman, my brand-new client…
And off-limits in every possible way.

We should have walked away.
Instead, we made a new arrangement.
Thirty nights. No promises.

Just stolen moments in penthouses, in Paris hotel rooms, on Manhattan balconies.

But the deeper we go, the harder it is to pretend this is just physical.
Because when Jack starts to share the things he loves with me—the symphony, books, late nights exploring the city—he’s impossible to resist.

And the more nights we spend tangled in pleasure, the more he owns my once-guarded heart.

Soon, I start to believe in something more.

But Jack doesn’t do love.
His past still owns too much of him.
And no matter how deep we fall, some risks feel too impossible to take.

Unless I can convince him that what we have is worth breaking every rule.

Tropes: Tortured hero, mistaken identity, starts with a bang, one night stand, billionaire hero, no strings romance, forbidden romance

About FORBIDDEN NIGHTS:

My best friend is gorgeous, wildly successful, and loves to spoil me. He’s also sworn off love.

Which is why Nate Harper is the perfect man to help me.

I’ve spent my life being in control. Now I want to learn how to let go, and Nate decides he’s the only one who can teach me.

If anyone can show me how to surrender, it’s my confident, outrageously flirty friend.

The deal? No strings. No feelings. No risks.

As we travel to London, New York, and decadent tropical islands, he proves just how good giving in can feel.

It’s only an arrangement. Nothing more.

Except now he’s looking at me differently.
Touching me like he doesn’t want to stop.
Kissing me like he wants these late nights to keep going.

And suddenly, what started as casual feels a lot like something real.

But his scars run deep.
His heart’s on ice.
And our friendship means too much to risk it.

Unless I can convince him some things are worth the fall.

Tropes: Best friends to lovers, lessons in seduction, best friend’s sister, he’s rich and generous

My review: 5 stars!

I adore full-cast audiobooks, and I was so excited to see that both of the books in Lauren Blakely's Joy Delivered series had been revised and re-recorded in full-cast form! Both both are fantastic stories and the narrator performances are so so good! The full-cast narration adds so much to the books and no one does casting as well as Blakely does. Her choices are always perfection!

New Audiobook Release Review: The Last Guy on Earth by Sarina Bowen

 

The Last Guy On Earth by Sarina Bowen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sarina Bowen has long been a DEAR (Drop Everything and Read- I'm a child of the 70s!) author for me and I always enjoy her hockey romances. Clay and Jethro were both fantastic, well-developed characters, and I especially loved Jethro's relationship with his nephew. This audiobook, narrated by Teddy Hamilton and JF Harding, was so well done.

About HOW MY NEIGHBOR STOLE CHRISTMAS:

A new winter holiday, enemies-to-lovers romance, from the undeniably funny and always spicy, USA Today bestselling author, Meghan Quinn.

Living in a year around Christmas town has it's drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave--I mean house--keeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits.

And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determine to win.

Well guess what? Over my cold-hearted body.

There was no way I was going to let her win, not after the history we'd shared.

So despite my promise to myself of never participating in the sickening Christmas season, I entered the competition as well. That's right, I planned on beating Storee at her own game by pretending this grump’s heart grew three sizes this season.

And it was working until feelings between us started heating up.
We pretended to date.
We kissed.
And well, sparks flew from there.

Which led to one explosive night involving Christmas lights, the competition, and a ladder. Don't let me convince you who stole Christmas, I think you need to find out for yourself . . .

Read the Excerpt:

She points her shaky finger at me. “It is on, Connor. It is so on. Watch your back, because I’m coming for the title.”

“It’s Cole,” I virtually bark. “And if anyone needs to watch their back, it’s you.”

“Ooo, awesome comeback.” She rolls her eyes. “See you around . . . Connor.” 

And then she takes off toward Cindy’s house. 

“I never should have walked you home,” I call out. 

“Trust me, it was more unpleasant for me. By the way, you have hot chocolate on your upper lip.”

Then she slips into her house while I quickly wipe at my mouth, most likely falling for her trick. 

Well . . . it’s official; she is enemy number one. This only makes me more determined to do everything in my power to make sure she doesn’t earn the Christmas Kringle crown. 

Narrated in duet by Vanessa Edwin and JF Harding, with a full cast including Shane East, Robert Hatchet, and Emma Wilder, HOW MY NEIGHBOR STOLE CHRISTMAS is now available on Audible!

My review: 5 stars!

No author makes me cackle quite like Meghan Quinn does. Without fail, I know there will be many laugh out loud moments each time I read one of her books. And although it's just mid-October, after reading How My Neighbor Stole Christmas, I am now fully ready for the holiday season to begin! This was just a hoot- the competition aspect and all the individual contests were just hilarious and so creative and I loved all the Grinch tie-ins. I listened to the audiobook, and it was done so well. It was duet style with a full cast and that just made the story even better. "Snow Daddy" Cole and Storee has fantastic chemistry and were such a fantastic grumpy/sunshine pairing. This was a treat from beginning to end!

New Audiobook Release Review: The New Guy by Sarina Bowen

 

The New Guy by Sarina Bowen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yay for a new hockey series from one of my favorite authors, Sarina Bowen! The New Guy was just fantastic, and once I started the audiobook, I didn't want to stop. I was excited to see that Teddy Hamilton was one of the narrators, along with new-to-me J.F. Harding, and the performances of both were captivating and added so much to the story. Gavin and Hudson were such a great couple, and I adored Jordyn, Gavin's daughter. She was such a great little hockey fan. Looking forward to reading more hockey romance- Bowen has already announced the next book in the series, I'm Your Guy.
