Overnight Sensation by Sarina Bowen- This is part of her Brooklyn Bruisers hockey series, which I have mostly enjoyed. This was a miss for me. Not enough that I DNF it, but I can’t say I truly enjoyed it. I did like seeing, even minimally, some of the characters from previous books. Heidi, the heroine, is kind of a Mary Sue. She is a Continue Reading
Exclusive Excerpt: Rough Terrain by Annabeth Albert
Thank you so much for having me. I had so much fun writing ROUGH TERRAIN. One of my favorite things to write are kisses, but sometimes the moments when characters don’t kiss but really, really want to are even more powerful than an actual kiss.

Damn but Canaan was sexy, miles of creamy, pale skin on a lean, compact body. He’d expected some tats or nipple Continue Reading
