Exclusive excerpt:
The muscle in his jaw moved, and his voice was a throaty whisper. “Being with you is incredibly easy. Whether it’s a mistake, I guess we have to wait and see. I’d like to think it’s not.”
My body swayed with the movement of his thumbs over my breasts. “I want you to kiss me.”
In one swift movement, his mouth covered mine. An ache of longing moaned from my throat into his lips, and he pulled my bottom lip between his teeth. Wrapped in his arms, tight against his firm chest, heat sizzled under my skin.
He whispered over my lashes as he pressed his lips to my forehead, the scruff of his beard roughing my skin. “I’ve dreamed of holding you this way since that first night. I hated myself for it because you’d been hurt—”
“You kept me from being hurt.” My voice was breathless with desire.
His lips moved back to my cheek, down to my jaw. “You’re so beautiful standing here in the moonlight.”
Dropping to his knees, cool air flooded where the warmth of his body had been. Strong hands moved to my waist, one holding my side, the other flat against my lower back as full lips kissed my stomach through the damp shirt. His mouth moved to my hip, and I felt my legs start to tremble.
     “Slayde,” I whispered, barely staying on my feet. It had been so long since I’d been touched this way, I wasn’t sure how much I could bear.

Blog Tour: Choosing Henley by Anne Jolin



~ Synopsis ~

Lennon Montgomery is scared. Absolutely scared shitless of love. 

When the floor fell out from underneath her perfect childhood, it shattered her ability to trust. The one man in her life who was genetically programmed to love her left her. Since then, she’s allowed men into her bed and even into her life, but never into her heart. 

Until him. 

Jamison Henley has never wanted a woman for longer than it takes him to make a guitar. He’s content living his life and loving only three things: making guitars, cooking great food, and Martha, his black pit bull. He never chases women, and he’s never had to. 

Until her.

One night together changes everything. There’s no going back to the way it was before. 

She doesn’t want to want him, but she does. 

He knows he wants her, but he can’t have her. 

Will Montgomery take the leap of faith in choosing Henley? Or will her fear cripple their chance at a happily ever after?


~ Review ~
5 Stars 

I really loved this book.  It was amazing.  I may have wanted to punch Jami in the face a couple times, but he really did redeem himself :)

Lennon has an issue with trust and letting people get close to her.  She never wants to feel the pain of betrayal again.  She doesn't think her heart can survive it again.  Ever since meeting Jami they have had an undeniable attraction.  She tries to fight it with everything she has, but one drunken night changes everything.  Will she finally let him in?  Or will she push him away for good?

Jami wants Lennon, but he doesn't understand why she is pushing him away.  He knows she has feelings for him, but is fighting them.  Finally after months of watching her turn away he's had enough.  Can he prove to her that he wants her and only her? Will he finally get the girl of his dreams?


This was an amazing book and I loved how we got more of Hannah and Greyson!!! I cannot wait to get Beth's story.  She is going to be a tough read!!  If you haven't read Chasing Rhodes I recommend reading that first.  Also Anne Jolin is an up and coming author to watch for. She is an amazing writer!!

~ Author Bio ~ 
Anne Jolin

I’m twenty four years old. I was born and raised in Ladner, a small farm town just outside of Vancouver, Canada. I grew up riding horses, shooting guns and riding in trucks. I’ve been married to my handsome redneck husband for a year and we are parents to our chocolate fur baby, Bear. No kiddo’s yet! I am completely and utterly obsessed with country music, you will constantly find me stalking iTunes. If you don’t find me on iTunes, you’ll find me on Netflix because I am a self proclaimed movie junkie. Yes, that means that I quote them constantly in daily conversation and my characters do too! You couldn’t keep me away from a good action movie if you tried. I’m also a planning nut. I love to plan parties, events, trips – you name it! I don’t know if that’s considered a real hobby, but it is for me. 

We were fortunate enough to travel a lot as a family growing up, and I think that helped spark my love of reading. I’m half Viking, my mom is Danish, and her entire side of the family still lives in Denmark. We’d visit them almost once a year, every year and it’s a nine hour flight. That’s a lot of uninterrupted time to read (or in my parent’s case, entertain four children – Yikes!). Somewhere along the way my love of reading, became a love of writing. I wrote short stories when I was younger, and although I majored in Business Management at college, I took as many English electives I could get my hands on. 

During the day I work at my family construction company wearing a variety of different hats and at night, I write! I had never thought about writing books before, but after a few suggestions that I should try, I decided to give it a go. I loved it instantly! Having always been a creative person, it felt amazing to harness all that energy and use it to tell a story. Now, quite frankly it’s all I can think about, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m grateful to have developed my love of reading into a passion for writing. You’ll be seeing many more books from me in the future!

Blog Tour: Tyler's Undoing by L.P. Dover

~ Synopsis ~

She was what he wanted … but she was also his undoing.
Through mutual understanding, Tyler’s secret affair with Gabriella Reynolds has come to an end. It’s a decision that not only saves their friendship, but it’s one that will change his life forever.
For the past couple of years, Tyler Rushing has been known as one of the UFC’s most memorable and sexy heavyweight fighters. Now he has the chance to win the title and claim the fame he so deserves. He has everything he could ever want until Kacey Andrews walks through the door of his gym, wanting nothing to do with him. Keeping his eyes off of her is a challenge; there’s an innocence about her that draws him to her, and he’s not going to stop until he makes her his. Little does he know that Kacey Andrews isn’t a stranger. She’s a part of his world; he just doesn’t know it. It’s a secret she’s worked hard to keep hidden.
Kacey spent years trying to get away from the fighting world, away from the man who’s hated among the MMA elite … her brother, Kyle Andrews. Unfortunately, she’s brought back into it when Tyler’s relentless battle for her heart wins her over, drawing her in. The only problem is that secrets never stay buried forever. In the end, Tyler has a decision to make, and it’s one that can possibly destroy his and Kacey’s life … forever.

5 Stars 

This book was Ah-Mazing!!  I love everything about this series.  I especially love the way Kacey stands up for herself!!

Kacey is happy to be away from her brother and mother.  But she isn't happy that her grandma isn't doing well.  She knows she is burning herself out with working full time, taking care of her grandma and trying to sleep and having the small life she does with Bree.  Bree wants her to get out and enjoy life more.  Bree figures taking her to a gym would be a good place to start, but doesn't know all of Kacey's past.  Kacey doesn't like MMA fighters and wants nothing to do with them.  Especially Tyler.  She's heard of his reputation.   But can she stand strong?  Or will she bend to his ways?  Or will her secret be enough to send him running?

Tyler is content having a different woman ever night.  He loves his life. He is finally moving up in the MMA standings. He is so close to the championship fight.  A couple more fights and it is his.  When he notices Kacey in his gym he wants her, but is shocked how much she pushes him away.  He sees it as a challenge, but there is something more to it than just a challenge.  He is starting to change.  Or is he?  Is it just the thrill of the chase making it so he wants only Kacey?  Or is he finally ready to settle down with one woman?


This is a great book of loss, pain, regret, redemption.  Kacey struggles with who her family is.  She doesn't want people to hate her because of it, but she also regrets not saying anything sooner.  But we all do things we shouldn't.  Tyler isn't perfect either.  He does things he probably shouldn't have done either. But it is amazing to watch them both grow.   I really love how Kacey is strong and she stands up for herself!!  I love L.P. Dover!!  And I cannot wait for Ryley's book.  I have to know what is going to happen with him and Ashleigh!!!





~ Excerpt ~

Spreading my legs with his knee, he smiled down at me and covered my body with his, leaning on his elbows to keep his full weight off of me. I was small underneath his body, utterly at his mercy. It was an archaic feeling, but I wanted him to take me, to claim me for his own—
leave his mark on me.
“I love the way you look when you’re happy, it’s breathtaking the way your face glows,” he claimed, brushing his fingers down my cheek. “However, your eyes are what I love the most.”
“Why is that?” I asked, kissing his fingers as be brushed them over my lips.
He brought his own gray gaze down closer and looked deeply into my eyes. “When I look at you, I see that light, beckoning me closer. It’s that light I’ve been so afraid will burn out if you let me in, but the more time I’ve spent with you, it’s only gotten brighter. I’m addicted to it … to you. These days I can’t seem to think of anything else.”
I felt the same way.
 “And once you make love to me it’ll only get worse,” I admitted tenderly. “Is that a risk you’re willing to take?”
He lowered his lips to mine and I closed my eyes, loving the way my lips tingled every time they touched his. “Yes,” he answered. “I’d risk just about anything for you.”

5 Stars 

I have always wondered what happened with Abby.  I always wanted it to be an open adoption.  So I was really excited to get a book about Abby and her life.

Abby was born with a hole in her heart.  Her mom always protected her and never wanted to let her participate in sports.  The one time she gives in and it turns bad.  Abby then finds out she is adopted, but her parents won't tell her who her biological parents are.  She struggles with this for several years.  Once she turns eighteen the decision is hers.  She knows that either way it can tear her apart.  Will she lose her parents?  Will her biological parents welcome her?  Why did they give her away?  So many questions that she wants to have answered, but is scared to find out the answers too.  But with Caleb by her side she finds the strength to do what she needs.  But will he always be there to guide her?   She will eventually need to learn to stand on her own two feet.


This book will tear your heart out.  I haven't cried so hard over a book in long time.  Have lots of tissues ready.  I was not prepared for the direction this book took.  This is another amazing read by Cassia Leo!!
