H&H Bloggers Recommend 2014

Over at Heroes and Heartbreakers they asked all us bloggers to send in our fave reads of 2014. I have way too many favorites to narrow it down to the three they asked us to, but I found a lot of books to add to my TBR pile for 2015! Stay tuned for my own year end list of my personal faves, but check out what I (and other H&H bloggers!) had to say!

Review: In Kelly's Corner


In Kelly's Corner
In Kelly's Corner by Roxie Rivera

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This is the second book I have read in this world by Roxie Rivera; the first was Ivan, also the first book in this world but a different series (My Russian Protector). I remember enjoying Ivan but reading In Kelly's Corner was the first chance I had to revisit the world.

In a trope twist, Bee is a tech billionaire and has a stalker who is getting more and more aggressive. Her deceased brother's best friend Kelly is a Marine and currently working at a private security firm. She goes to him for help but it is super awkward as she planted a kiss on him last New Year's Eve and he basically rebuffed her advances. What she doesn't know is that Kelly has been lusting after her for years and can't bring himself to break the bro code of dating his best friend's sister, even if his best friend has passed away in his arms overseas in the middle east.

Bee is a virgin, and I don't know if that is a spoiler or not, but usually virgins get on my nerves. However, Bee is one of the few virgin characters that is pragmatic, knowledgeable, and knows the basic mechanics of sex. I love when contemporary virgins don't act like they are in a regency novel, so gold star there! I totally fell in love with the Connolly brothers and their troublesome dad who slightly redeemed himself at the end. Lots of hot scenes and chemistry between Bee and Kelly. Good read!

ARC Review: Flames of Passion by Kayla Perrin

Nya's jerk of an ex cheated on her and is now dating the quasi starlet she suspected he was sleeping with while producing his first film. She runs into him at a charity event and has to come up with something to keep from feeling like such a loser, so she grabs the closest guy to her at the bar and lays a hot kiss on him when it looks like her ex and his new girlfriend are on their way over to her. Luckily for her it was handsome and sweet firefighter Tyler who plays along with her game. He plays so well, in fact, they have tickets to the premiere of her ex's movie at the end of the week.

What happens next is a sweet roller coaster of circumstances and falling in love. Nya and Tyler have some great chemistry. Tyler is hot, adorable, a gentleman, and sexy! Nya is a class act but suffers from some serious self esteem issues, especially after her last break up. She was so hot and cold with Tyler it gave me whiplash! However, the overall premise was cute, funny, and a page turning read. My only comment is that with a Harlequin Kimani read, I would expect a little more descriptiveness with the characters. I totally understand the need to make the characters more relate-able to a broader audience, but there was only one reference to Nya's skin color towards the end of the book. I think it's an incredible talent to write a whole book where the character's race is irrelevant, but in this case I was expecting it. In any case, I enjoyed it.

Review: Outlaw Guardian


Outlaw Guardian
Outlaw Guardian by Amy Love

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Chelsea is a battered woman on the run from her abusive crooked cop boyfriend. She has thecluck to run into Elias, the Sargeant at Arms of the White Wolves MC. Knowing a woman on the run when he sees one he offers protection and a helping hand.

These two are probably the most pragmatic, honest, and communicative people ever. The conflict that pops up between them is completely created in the heroines head which made for a frustrating ending. However I really liked Elias so I might check back in on these two!

This one ends on a minor cliffhanger. These two were pretty intense together and it turns out they shared some kinks. Mason went to Caroline to investigate the books of his MC's garage now that he is the treasurer. In the meantime they have a super sex fest. Hot and fast read.

Review: Vengeful in Love


Vengeful in Love
Vengeful in Love by Nadia Lee

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



3.5 stars
Natalie is the daughter of a US Senator and grew up with his love and acceptance but as an adopted child she always felt scorned by his wife and their biological daughter. Luckily she had her godmother Louise to lean on, but Natie is in the middle of a mess now. The CEO of her company is looking to do a hostile take over of her godmother's company. Alex Damon has a bone to pick with Natalie's godmother; she ruined his family and he had had to build himself back up piece by piece. Natalie may be beautiful but he isnt going to be swayed by a pretty face like his father was.

There were so many meanies in this book. Natalie's mom, her sister, even the non meanies had a wicked cruel streak. I believed Alex and his attraction to Natalie. They had some nice chemistry and some hot scenes. If you can deal with easily forgiving cruel people then this is a good read.

ARC Review: Their Fierce Love by Ella Goode


Their Fierce Love (Motorcycle Clubs Book 10)In book ten of The Motorcycle Clubs series (and book 4 of the double teaming Death Lords MC series) Annie continues her budding romance with Easy and Michigan of the Death Lords MC. Annie is the only daughter of a devout small town preacher, and she knows that her relationship with the sexy Easy and the intense Michigan is definitely something he will not approve of. However, she is conflicted and feels that she can’t just leave her father and move in with Easy and Michigan without a way to take care of herself, despite the fact that Easy and Michigan would love to take care of her. In order to start a dialogue with her father about her dating and possibly moving out (even if she is 23 and doesn’t have to have permission!) the trio agree that she should come out to her dad as dating Easy, who is a hometown boy and well liked. Here is where the real drama starts!



Her preacher father’s sinister overtones in Their Private Need are confirmed in Their Fierce Love, and I think it’s safe to say that without spoiling anything. However, that’s all I am going to say. These three are hot together, and their personalities are a perfect match for each other. Annie is a wanton woman now that she knows the pleasures of sex, and one of the guys even jokes that it’s good there are two of them to keep her satisfied. Easy is, of course, laid back and a fierce protector; Michigan as always is quiet, intense, and looking for way more than a casual hookup. As the series goes on I would love to check in with them and see how their relationship has progressed.

Another great entry in The Motorcycle Clubs series!

Review: Tragic


Tragic
Tragic by J.A. Huss

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Rook is homeless in Denver and on the run from an abusive ex back in Chicago. A chance encounter at a coffee shop (where she spent her last 10 bucks) with a bunch of snotty models changes her life when she takes an appointment card and shows up for a photo shoot. She meets , the devastatingly handsome model/model runner. Antoine, the photographer, and his lover, Elise (Ronin's brother) all fall in love with Rook's look and she is on the path to finding her own independence even as some of Ronin's tendencies for control set off red flags.

I enjoyed this a lot and plan to read the rest. They had nice chemistry and Rook's hesitancies were spot on for her history. There is still a lot more to uncover and Im totally crushing on Spencer the biker/artist!

Review: Choosing Her Alpha


Choosing Her Alpha
Choosing Her Alpha by Scarlett Rhone

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This one snuck up on me as a great read. Callie is recently widowed by Carrick who was a bear shifter, but he never shared that fact or the fact that he has family on a mountain in Montana. Imagine Callie's surprise when his brother Ronan shows up at her door with a copy of his brother's will that deeds part of that mountain to her. She has to sell it or live on it. In the meantime she has to fight the attraction she feels for the man who looks so much like her husband but is so different. And when they get to the mountain, a cougar shifter named Jenner lets the paranormal secret out of the bag and wants to claim her for himself. This was a nice and hot bite, just the beginning of what looks to be a great serial.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Claire had a terrible secret that only her best friend and her worst enemy know. Chris has moved on to Hollywood and become a huge star; Claire may have finally moved on with the adorable Adam who has ghosts of his own. Another emotional rollercoaster here as what stays in the dark always comes out in the light...for everyone. So intriguing, and it was so easy to fall in love with Adam here, even if Chris is our fist love...

Review: Forever Ours


Forever Ours
Forever Ours by Cassia Leo

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I'm new to this series, so I am reading the prequel before reading the rest of the series unlike others who have already enjoyed this series so far. I'm hooked! I can tell this is going to be an emotional rollercoaster, and I can't wait to read the rest of the series (on sale on amazon right now, btw.) Chris and Claire fall in love as teenagers when she moves to his home as a foster child when she was 15. They have the sweetest most patient romance as Chris waits patiently for her to be ready for all he wants for her. His music is the only other thing that is as important to him, and when it looks like his big break is coming when she goes away to college, she makes some choices that tear them apart. For now.

FIGHTING LIES
FIGHTING LIES by Kellie Perkins

Fighting Love
Fighting Love by Kellie Perkins

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I enjoyed this a lot. The saga continues for Keeva and Nash. After dealing with the fact that Nash was in the ring with her brother when he died, she also had to deal with her conscience when dangerous loansharks are lurking around the corner trying to collect on a debt. She decides to help train him to improve his fighting like she did for her brother. Just when it looks like things are looking up for them another cliffhanger twist is thrown their way.

I am enjoying this saga. Keeva is in an incredible spot, being in love with the man who dealt the killing blow to her brother in the ring. Their chemistry is hot and no matter what Im always rooting for them.

Review: Fighting Grief


Fighting Grief
Fighting Grief by Kellie Perkins

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This was a great start to this serial. Im already in for the second entry! Keeva is mourning the tragic loss of the brother that raised her. He dropped out of high school and started fighting in MMA underground tournaments to set aside money for college for her. He died in the ring. Months later Keeva is running out of money and completely despondent about life without her rock. There is his best friend Marshall who is the executor of her brothers estate who wants to help but Keeva doesn't want help right now. And she meets and eventually hooks up with Nash, the new bartender at the restaurant/bar she serves at. Their relationship is volatile and passionate, and Nash has some secrets that he wants to protect Keeva from. The end wasnt surprising but still a doozy cliffhanger in a good way. Good read!

Locked with Him
Locked with Him by Ellen Dominick

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



This was an interesting read, cute and sexy but quick! Penelope the librarian and the enigmatic Matt are stuck in the library during the snowstorm of the century. They had an instant connection but there was something very...intense about Matt. We do find out a bit of a secret about him at the end of this novella and Im rather interested to continue the serial. I liked Penny's voice even if she was a bit self deprecating. Nice read.

Ava is a hospital administrator who wakes up one morning after a one night stand with no memory of the night before. Turns out her handsome hunk is Evan the new surgeon at her hospital. They have incredible chemistry. He wants more but because she is his superior reporting their relationship to HR could put her career in jeopardy. Ava was interesting to read even though I wanted to shake her. She got another guys number while out on a date with Evan! Rude! This starts a serial. I dont know that I enjoyed it enough to pick up the rest right now but I may in the future.

Review: Liberty Begins


Liberty Begins
Liberty Begins by Leigh James

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Liberty was a neurotic mess. On one hand I can understand her wariness of meeting John. He is a rich friend of the man who owns the strip club she strips at. She is right to be cautious about his motives. However by the end of the book I was so annoyed with Liberty, especially considering her choice in the end. John has basically laid his heart out to her, which I love btw, and Liberty cant figure out if she can deal with his lifestyle. I get that too but only to a certain point. Overall I did enjoy reading it but there were some plot points that got me.

Review: Storm


Storm
Storm by Nina Levine

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



3.5 stars
This one is tough to evaluate because I enjoyed the book overall, but I really didn't like Madison. She was shrill, obstinate, out of control, and annoying. I don't know if she was supposed to be sassy and bold or something like that, but she constantly rubbed me the wrong way, flying off the handle constantly. As an MC princess, she should know that club business isn't discussed at home a lot, and certainly not badgered out of your old man. However, J loved all of her foolishness, and he knew exactly how to handle her fiery temper.

I'm really interested in some of the other club members, and uncovering their ghosts. J and Madison had some hot chemistry, and if they couldn't come to a meeting of the minds they certainly came to a meeting of the bodies. Madison was also dealing with alcoholism, which was a hot button for J, but they came through that beautifully. I may go back for more!

Ugh Sam was so hard to root for. Every time Drake came back to her with sincere longing and his heart on his sleeve, she would throw it in his face. Every single time. Then she ended up pregnant and kept it from him! I didn't like her and I felt Drake could do better quite frankly.

Drake is rich, successful, and his family has been in the movie business for generations, He is used to getting what he wants, and he wants Sam but she wont budge.

I enjoyed some of their banter, but Sam was kind of bratty to me. There was chemistry and Drake was hot!

They are instantly attracted, and despite trying to keep a cool head about the nature of their relationship, they can see themselves falling harder and harder. Cute! And apparently a series.

Review: Incandescent


Incandescent
Incandescent by River Savage

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This was a great book! In the cavern of crappy MC books this one is on par with my faves. Kadence is an elementary school teacher and has noticed that Z, one of her good students, is having some behavioral changes. His father is the Phoenix Knight, President of the Knights Rebels MC. She and Nix have some serious chemistry to start, and it just takes off from there. As Pres, Nix is used to having women falling all over him, but Kadence is giving him nothing, he has to work for everything with her. She has a mouth as blue as his, and isn't shy about giving him shit. He is instantly in love. They both have pasts to deal with; Nix's ex doesn't seem to care about their son and his change in behavior, and Kadence's ex left her penniless and in the burn unit after a different MC torched her house looking for him. Nix has been successful in making the MC 100% legit, and Kadence has to deal with the self esteem of baring her scars to Nix. They were a great couple, and I loved how Nix was s upfront about his feelings. He knew he wanted Kadence and he never backed down from it. It was so refreshing! There was enough going on without that extra angst for these two. I don't know what the hell was going on with Kadence's best friend Holly and Sy from Knights Rebels, but it was something and I can tell it was hot and dramatical. I have to wait for that book to come out, but I think it's coming out soon. I can't wait!!

Review: His Secretary: Undone


His Secretary: Undone
His Secretary: Undone by Melanie Marchande

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



4.5 stars
This book was a pleasant surprise! Very well written and not the typical Alpha executive/submissive secretary story. Meghan has worked for Adrian Risinger for 5 long demanding years. At first his constant barbs and demands were hard to take, but then Meghan started giving back as good as she got and it seemed like Adrian even liked it. Meghan found some billionaire boss erotica and started reading it, only to be pulled into Adrian's office and be told that he was one that wrote them under a female pen name. Not only that, but he needed to have Meghan pretend to be the author at some book signings and conferences. There is so much more, but I wouldn't want to give any spoilers away.

Meghan totally kicked ass. She was blunt, up front, smart mouthed, and didn't take Adrian's shit. Adrian was tall, dark, and handsome, ridiculously rich, and underneath the barbs a sweet guy. Their chemistry was off the charts, and his appreciation for her voluptuous figure was honest and sexy. I'm a new fan of Melanie Marchande!

Review: Having it All by Kati Wilde

In the conclusion of the saga of Saxon and Jenny in the 3rd Hellfire Riders novella, happiness is just a dead Henchmen away. Saxon and Jenny are solid and hot as ever but the Henchmen came after them in a big way, and now Saxon won't rest until all of the racist bastards from the 88 Henchmen MC are dead and gone. The close call was too close for Jenny; growing up in an MC she knows that her man will take revenge seriously. If she steps in to take care of business her own way, Saxon will take it as a personal attack on his manhood. Jenny has to weigh whether she can live with Saxon alive and pissed at her or dead and just gone. However, with her father's health declining, she can't stand to lose Saxon, too. Their love is strong and lethal, and it's always great to have a SMART heroine. The boys (and lady!) in the Hellfire Riders are pretty badass as well.

Another great read in The Motorcycle Clubs series. Lily aka Zoomie and Blowback have been circling each other for a while now and maybe in the next novella we will find out why!

Review: Double Trouble


Double Trouble
Double Trouble by Ruby Dixon

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Shy has a problem. Her psycho jerk of a brother is a snitch for the 88 Henchmen, a truly bad, bad MC. When she accidentally overhears a conversation too many, her brother puts her on notice that if she breathes a word to anyone, he is going to let the 88 rape her and kill her. Shy knows that not all MC guys are bad, but she figures she should go after the biggest and the baddest to keep her safe from her crazy brothers, so she goes to a panty raid that his MC, the Bedlam Butchers, are throwing. Beast and Muscle are the club enforcers, and she makes a beeline for Beast, knowing that he and Muscle are team. She just has to get over her stutter and her virginity to make it happen. Beast and Muscle are visually opposites; Muscle is muscularly lean with a pretty face, Beast is a huge hulking figure with a permanent scowl. They each have a past to overcome; they also can tell that Shy is afraid of something or someone.

This was a great read. Shy and Beast connected first, and despite his huge imposing demeanor, he proved to be a gentle giant. Muscle was the one who seemed so easy-going on the outside, but had issues from his past that kept him from connecting to Shy at first. Shy was shy, but she had a backbone of steel, and of course, there were plenty of sexy times to be had!

Review: Their Private Need


Their Private Need
Their Private Need by Ella Goode

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Annie is in her mid 20's, lives at home, and is the local pastor's daughter. She wears simple, dowdy clothes and lives a simple boring life. Her father is judgmental and nearly oppressive; however Annie has quite a spirit and she wants more. She wants double, in fact. And ever since her boss at the library became the old lady of the president of the local MC, the Death Lords, she has the opportunity in her grasp. Annie has been watching Michigan and Easy of the Death Lords for a while now, and they have been watching her. Michigan and Easy were in the military together, and have been inseparable ever since. Can Annie handle the both of them?

Triads are a favorite trope of mine, and I loved this book. It's not over for these three - they have another novella after this one to conclude their story. I love Annie! Spicy, spunky, and ready to please her men. Michigan is all strong, silent, and broody, and Easy is just that- easy to smile, easy to please, but all business when it comes to the Club, Michigan, and Annie. Can't wait for the conclusion of their story!

Review: Taking it All by Kati Wilde


Taking it All is the 2nd book in the Hellfire Riders MC series, and the 6th book in The Motorcycle Clubs series. Here we continue with the story of Saxon and Jenny. Their connection is just as strong, but this book proves how much they have and are willing to go for each other. Jenny's father is sick and wants to patch over his club to the Hellfire Riders before it's too late. It seems like a good deal all around. The Riders are already strong and bringing over the smaller club will make them even stronger. This is perfect for Saxon and Jenny, but because her father's club has some old bad blood with Saxon's club, some old feelings are being dredged up. The biggest issue? There is an old rule that the President's old lady must prove her worth to the club by having sex with the president in front of the club, and even allow them to join in. With Jenny's background of being sexually assaulted, Saxon is never going to make her do this, but he must convince his club that this is the best choice. Meanwhile, Jenny knows MC life being the princess of her dad's MC, and doesn't want her love to choose between the club and her. Would she be able to do what it takes to keep that from happening?

As always this was a hot, quick read. I love Saxon, and I love Saxon and Jenny together. Jenny was smart and knew her self worth, but also knew the stakes. Saxon exudes power without being a blunt hammer; and he loves his woman! Has loved her for a long time. Another sexy novella from The Motorcycle Clubs team!

Their plan is to convince her to commit to them, but Kitty's plan is to keep her independence, no matter much her two MC studs satisfy her.

This was another hot entry in the series, and I can't wait for the next. Kitty and Gem and Dom make quite a trio. I think the Butchers may just be may fave!

Review: Captivated by You


Captivated by You
Captivated by You by Sylvia Day

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I'm such a fan of Gideon and Eva, and the anticipation was killing me for this book to come out. On one hand, there was so much introspection through Gideon's point of view. He made several personal breakthroughs in this book. However, in the external sense of action, there isn't really much to report. Angel and Ace are as hot and connected as ever, with Gideon being over protective as usual and Eva fighting for her independence. They navigate land mines of their pasts, even as the past lurched forward in time to catch up with them. This novel was a love letter to Gideon's inner turmoil and struggle to balance everything life threw at him. The real issue in this book is how Gideon and Eva deal with happiness. The previous book as this one are setting up a lot of showdowns for the 5th and final(?) book in the Crossfire series. I'm expecting a hell of an ending!

Pippa knows plenty about the MC culture. Her dad is a nomad rider and when he gives her a heads up about an opportunity to start a new life in Fortune, the librarian jumps at the chance. Judge is the President of the Death Lords and as soon as he sees Pippa riding around town with the crooked chief of police, he knows she is going to be his. Unfortunately this pisses the chief off.

I liked Judge and Pippa. Judge is a little older and knows exactly what he wants, while Pippa has been taking care of herself for a long time and knows what she wants too. It was sweet how Judge was so open about his feelings for her, and they had some hot sexytimes.

Yet another great entry into the series. Monica and Jonathan are on a break, and Jonathan is refusing to compromise. Monica is not sure if she is ready to be his submissive so publicly. Jonathan will accept nothing less. They still have secrets between them, but some have been revealed. There is a pretty heavy cliffhanger at the end, so I am off to read the next one!

Review: Too Rough For Love


Too Rough For Love
Too Rough For Love by Adair Rymer

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Star is living with her shady aunt and uncle while she is finishing up school. She works at their gas station since she doesn't pay rent. One day the Steel Veins MC rolls up and kills them, then kidnaps Star. The plan was to fuck her and kill her most likely but Remy had other plans. For some reason he kept protecting her and by the end of this part one, the cost may be a high one to pay indeed.

The story was interesting but went a little fast. I understood Remy, but Star was a little harder to get. They had fantastic chemistry though, and the book was a page turner! This MC is as callous and hardcore as they get, so if that's your bag this is for you.

Monica and Jonathan are getting closer, dangerous when they both admitted from the beginning this would be a fling. Secrets are crawling out of the woodwork and Jonathan's ex is playing hardball to get him back. Also, kinky sexytimes with amazing chemistry between J and M.

Business is picking up as Monica isnt ready to hear from Jonathan that she is a submissive. Also we read about some revealed secrets and some of them ask more questions than supply answers!

Monica and Jonathan are getting hotter and heavier, this time rougher. Monica says "snatch" exclusively when referring to her lady parts and it kills my soul just a tiny bit every time...but Im not stopping. Im invested and Im digging where this story is going!
