❤❤ DISCREET by Nicole French Review ❤❤ @authornicolefrench




Fitz Baker was the world’s biggest sex symbol. Until he disappeared. 

Fed up with the trappings of fame, he traded his world of Hollywood for a quiet life on Newman Lake. He was perfectly happy living as an island. Until he met her. 

Returning home with nothing but a failed music career, all Maggie Sharp wants is to rebuild her life. A life that doesn’t involve the surly, arrogant stranger now living across the lake. 

Still, there’s something about Will…something familiar. Something Maggie can’t quite put her finger on… 

She only wanted the spotlight.
He gave up his life to escape it.
The real question is if they can remain discreet.

❤❤ 5 stars for the Bad Idea Series by Nicole French❤❤ @nfrenchauthor @authornicolefrench

 



People... have you heard of this series? No? Yes? Why NOT!!! Honestly, I hadn't either. I don't know that I've ever read this author before. I had vacation coming up and wanted something that would take my attention away from long drive times and chatty kids. This book came up on one of those facebook ads, so I clicked and the little snippet provided caught my attention. So, in we go. I one-clicked. Congrats on a successful ad Nicole! Mission accomplished!

Immediately I was sucked into the story of Layla and Nico. Who cares he's a Fedex guy. Who cares there's an age difference. They start with this sudden attraction, this need, this desire to be together and the flirting. GAH! got me right away. Once their relationship started, I was done for. Stick a fork in me, these two are just too cute, done. I don't care about his background, her struggling, nothing. These. Two. Need. To. Have. Their. HEA. Kind of done. And that's where my obsession with this series started.

❤❤ MAREK by Sawyer Bennett 3.5 star review ❤❤

My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars


When the Carolina Cold Fury’s hottest young star gets blindsided by an ex with a scandalous secret, it’s game on.


“One of the best voices in contemporary romance.”—New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne

Marek Fabritis is used to delivering blows, not receiving them. But when he gets tipped off by an anonymous email about his ex-girlfriend, the news leaves him ice cold—and it’s not because Gracen Moore is getting married to a total jerk. It’s the fact that Marek has a three-year-old daughter he never knew about. Now he’s going back home, not to play knight in shining armor but to make damn sure that no man takes what’s his. For the first time, there might be something more important than hockey.

❤❤ BILLIONAIRES AND BRIDES SERIES by Krista Lakes Series AUDIOREVIEW ❤❤

Yours Completely
Billionaires and Brides #1


Maids don't ever get to go to the ball... do they? 


Jace Connors: 

Stretched thin from running a business and organizing a wedding, the last thing Jace needs is the world's most eligible bachelorettes trying to sneak their way into his bed. When he meets Ella grooming the inn's horses, though, she leaves him breathless. Jace knows that he can't let her get away... 


Ella McDaniels: 

What starts as an almost-kiss in the barn ends up captivating Ella, even though she knows that the richly dressed Jace is out of her league. However, when he keeps showing up wherever she is, her attraction to him grows. And if she can outwit her wicked stepmother, she just might be able to dance with him at the wedding reception ball. There's only one problem... 


What if Jace is actually the groom? 



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yours Truly
Billionaires and Brides #2


Only one woman's foot will fit this size 11 1/2 glass slipper... 


AJ Jacobson: 

Billionaire CEO AJ wants nothing more than to just get away from his busy life. So when he goes to an employee's wedding and meets a beautiful girl, he feels like he can lose himself to her. Despite an intense night of passion, he wakes up in an empty bed. The only clue he has to find his Cinderella? A glass slipper and two handwritten lines on a note, fished out of a dumpster and almost unreadable... 


Kat Ryder: 

When responsible Kat lets her hair down for one night, she meets a gorgeous stranger who really likes the new her. After an enchanting evening together, Kat gets an early morning call into work by a panicked boss. Knowing that she must see him again, she leaves a letter for the sleeping hunk and signs it, "Yours Truly, Kat,” not realizing that's the only part of the note that will survive. However, there are other consequences to her night of fun, especially when she finally meets up with her one-night-stand... 


What if AJ is actually her company's CEO? 



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yours Royally
Billionaires and Brides #3


Can a regular girl ever marry a real life prince? 


Prince Marco: 

Royal life can be a royal pain, and Marco needs a break. A secret identity, just for a few weeks. A relaxing vacation in America, where nobody knows who he really is. Not even the girl he hires to be his personal assistant, Sabrina. But when Sabrina turns out to be the best part of his vacation, he finds it harder and harder to keep his secret from her... 


Sabrina Wise: 

Sabrina never imagined that any job could lead to paparazzi encounters and surprise trips to Hawaii. Who could have thought that her boss would turn out to be as charming as he was handsome? But, behind their sizzling sexual tension, she can't help but think there's something more to Marco. Who isthis gorgeous man she's taking orders from, and why is he keeping so much hidden away? If she's willing to risk everything to find out, she might end up in her own Cinderella fairy-tale ending... 


What happens when Mr. Right turns out to be Prince Charming?






I am going to review this series as a whole, since I listened to all the books back to back. 

Every now and then I get on this kick where I need an overly sweet romance, where I guaranteed the happily ever after .. This is exactly what you get with this series. You get that instant love, tooth ache, type of story. And for once, this is exactly what I was craving. 

In each story, you get two people whom you don't think should fit, but who's chemistry is off the charts. Whether they know each others identity or not, the pull between them is undeniable. Whether its a CEO, a prince, or a rich bachelor, the ladies don't really know who they're dealing with at first. Then surprise surprise, the truth comes out and they're all dumbfounded. 

My only complaint is this. With each book, we have a villain, obviously. The one that stands out the most to me, probably because it was the most recent is the Queen. There are so many things that she does that are just horrible , selfish things. And yet, at the end, when we could be given a resolution to this horrible woman and her actions, it's just brushed under the rug. She is just going to stay somewhere else. Yet, the King, who you come to care for, is just supposed to be okay with it? How she treated Sabrina, in front of people, we're just supposed to be okay with it because they had words? There is never any resolution or punishment to the villains in any of the stories. That is my only complaint.

The narrators in each story was amazing. They really brought the sweet, unblemished side of each woman to life. And when you do that, when you bring them to life, it makes it so much easier for the readers to get sucked in and not want to put the story down. 

The series gets 4 stars from me.

❤❤ BAD BOY BRODY by Tijan 3 star review ❤❤

My rating: 3 of 5 stars




One punch took him from Hollywood’s Golden Boy to Bad Boy Brody.


The media didn’t care he was grieving his brother’s death. They descended on him, but to change his reputation, his manager got him a deal.



Act in an indie film, one that already had Oscar buzz, and he’d get the movie roles he needed to secure his future.



He took the deal.



Yet he wasn’t prepared for the real-life people behind the script. He wasn’t prepared for the murder the movie was based on. And he really wasn’t prepared for her, the biggest secret of all.
