Awesome Reviews Rolling In (and a snippet!)

2014

Yesterday I saw a fantastic KIRKUS review for The BEST KIND OF TROUBLE:  The perfect combination of sexy rock-star fantasy and emotionally tender romance.

Books of Love says: A book that leaves you simmering for more from start to finish. I utterly loved reading this couple. Their story was so sizzlingly hot and refreshingly sexy as well. Patrick and Natalie are so different, but yet they work in a really good way. 

So how about a snippet to celebrate?

She sighed, closing her eyes as she thought about all he’d said. “You scare me, Paddy.”

“I do?”

“Not physically. But…anyway, you matter to me and only people who matter to you can really hurt you.”

“I’ll try not to. But I will anyway. I’m an amateur at this stuff. But, I want you to tell me when I do. Even if you think I’m the biggest asshole ever. I can’t fix it if I don’t know and if I don’t know and you’re hurting, it’s not fair to me. Or to you.”

She blew out a breath, snagging his hand, kissing his knuckles. “I’ll do my best.”

“You hold your control like a shield. And I get why. But, you can let me in sometimes, you know. I want you to trust me enough to do that. To let me be your shield. Isn’t it heavy? Exhausting?”

She nodded, her forearm over her eyes.

“So what I’m suggesting is that between us when it’s quiet and intimate you give me some of that control. Let me manage things and just relax.”

Eyes still closed, she nodded. And jumped. “Yes.”

    Thanks for the snippet! And great reviews, I can’t wait to read The best kind of trouble.
    I’m listening to the audiobook version of 6 Rainier Drive by Debbie Macomber. It’s very relaxing, I love it. I love listening to audiobooks when I work and I can let my mind wander.

    I just finished a book called Decker’s Wood by Kirsty Dallas. This was a great book and a type I haven’t read about. It’s about a porn star ‘Decker’ who lost his ability to get “up” for filming. An old family friend comes in NY city and he feels things he never felt for a women and he has no more problem. She is a country girl from Texas. Throw in a gay couple as friends and this was a funny book and with an unlikely couple. I surprisingly loved it.
