~~Review~~
 
If you are seeking touchy-feely Christmas stories to warm your heart, then you are in luck. 
 
Within these three stories you’ll read about military men who either renewed a past relationship or created a new one.
 
They are too sweet, borderline cute. In other words, my erotic fans, the love scenes are a far cry from rated X…maybe not even rated-R.

Holiday Message…..

With the holidays fast approaching, people are busier than ever with work, family, and whatever else tends to pop up. And with that, stress will strike many of us HARD. It raises its ugly head and lets face it, people will become a wee bit cranky. Ok, maybe more than a wee bit. 
 
And why?
 
Simple. We forget to stop, relax, and be thankful for what we have and not dwell on what we”need”. 
 
So before you step out the door this morning, look around at what you have and think about what others might need. Think how can I help someone in need this holiday. 
 
Folks, if you have the spare cash, buy a gift for a child less fortunate (options available in every area), buy someone’s lunch, pay for their coffee, donate to a cause, etc. 
 
If you are low on funds, there are other ways you can help brighten someone’s else day. Volunteer your time at a shelter/soup kitchen, donate whatever items you can clothes/blankets to a shelter, and so on. 
 
Basically what I am saying is its ok to shop and buy yourself or your loved ones gifts. I do the same. However, remember there are those less fortunate than you so try to help at least one person out this holiday season and maybe they will pay the generosity forward and then it might continue on well past the month of December. *smiling* 
 
See what I am aiming for here? A world where we are spreading MORE LOVE and LESS HATE. 
 
Isn’t that what we all want? It’s my holiday wish.

What to Do with a Bad Boy by Marie Harte (Book Review)

Series: McCauley Brothers
Book 4 in series
Genre: Contemporary
Format: eBook, Print

 

WHAT IS WITH MIKE McCAULEY?

Every time Delilah Webster runs into Mike McCauley, he practically bites her head off. The rough-and-tumble contractor clearly has baggage. Del has her own emotional scars and knows she’s better off keeping her distance, but Mike’s temptation in jeans and a T-shirt and she’s always been good with her hands…

There’s something about the strong-willed mechanic that sets Mike’s motor running–and scares the hell out of him. Mike has loved and lost and will never hurt like that again, even if that means walking away from a woman who makes him feel alive for the first time in years.

When a simple kiss turns hot and heavy, Mike discovers he can’t stay away, no matter how certain he is they’re destined to crash and burn…

 
 
Oh how I love the little rascal Colin, Mike’s son. He reminds me so much of my daughter it’s freaking scary. They are both sneaky, a mouth too big for their ages, and ears that hear every damn word. But goodness, they are so damn cute and a joy to be around. 
 
Now let me speak about Mike and Del. They both came into the relationship with major baggage, like most people. He was still grieving over his deceased wife who died giving birth to Colin. And Del, she never felt worthy of love thanks to her mother and I use the term “mother” loosely. 
 
However, Mike realized he could allow himself to love again. That in doing so, he wasn’t tarnishing what him and his wife had. 
 
Del, with all her tattoos/piercings/rough exterior attitude, learned it’s okay to let someone in besides her family. She admitted to herself she wanted more in life besides working in the shop and finally got it. 
 
Best scenes in the book: Del putting Grace in her place. Colin being all spy-like with J.T. Basically any scene involving J.T. Speaking of the tattoo artist, I want his book!!!

Charade by Lori Foster (Book Review)

 

Outrageous:
Judd Sanders couldn’t believe it when the beautiful, wide-eyed woman he rescued from some drunk hoodlums started poking her gorgeous little nose into his business. She was obviously a menace to herself – not to mention to his libido. Worse, she’d blow his cover. For little didEmily Cooper know that Judd was really a cop – whose cover left him a little too “uncovered” for his liking.

 

Impetuous:

Grade school teacher Carlie McDaniels trades in her frumpiness for the look of an exotic harem girl, at least for one costume party. So long, spinsterhood—and hello tall, dark and handsome Tyler Ramsey….

Even after the best night of their lives, Tyler hasn’t guessed the identity of his harem hottie…and Carlie plans on keeping him in the dark. After all, a gorgeous guy like Tyler would never fall for his smart-talking best friend. And Carlie’s not sure she wants to know what would happen if he ever unveiled the naked truth!

 
 
 
Again Lori has delivered two sexy, sweet stories to her readers.
 
In “Impetuous” you’ll discover a woman who hides behind frumpy clothes, a distant personality because she doesn’t want to get rejected or made feel inadequate – again. With Tyler by her side, she realizes it’s okay to let her guard down and be carefree – be her true self. And Tyler discovers there is more to a woman than outward appearances. Together, they both become greater people. Made for each other in every way. 
 
In “Outrageous”, two unlikely people find their path’s crossing while working towards a same goal – taking down an arm’s dealer. Love wasn’t in the plans for them but that’s precisely what developed. 
 
With these two stories, you’ll see how opposites really do attract – explosively hot and all consuming passion. Sounds freaking great, right? I thought so too. 🙂
