Seducing the Defendant (Conflict of Interest #2)

Author Chantal Fernando

4.5 Stars

Let me start by saving that I enjoyed the author’s Wing Dragon MC series and book in Breaching the Contract in this series.  So when the author was able to bring both of these series together in this book it was a pleasant surprise; adding a glimpse into her Wing Dragon MC Series.

Jaxon Bentley is the must have criminal attorney.  He has pour his life into making his firm one of the best in town.  But Jaxon personal life has not been easy.  He had guilt over a loss that he had no control over however he seems to blame himself.  The unknowns have been eating slowly at him.  When a high profile murder case contracts him to represent her, he will do what he does best; win the case. 

Scarlett Reyes has been accuse of murdering her cop husband.  But she claims to be innocent.  She will have to tell Jaxon all her secrets so that he can do his job to clear her name and keep her out a prison.  But Scarlett has issues.  Trusting any man is one of them.  It will take time and Jaxon slowly breaking down her walls to get to the truth.

Jaxon knows he has to keep things professional.  He knows to never cross that line.  But something about Scarlett calls to him.  She seems to make him a better person just from a simple smile here and a soft laugh here.  Scarlett is no better.  She starts to crave Jaxon.  But that is now what she needs right now.  She needs to clear her name.  Not lust after her attorney. 


Can Jaxon and Scarlett keep things professional while she’s his client.  Or will the lines of attorney client blur?

Three Simple Words by Author AJ Pines

Three Simple Words (Kingston Ale House #3)

Author AJ Pines
4 stars

Let me start by saying that this is book 3 in the Kingston Ale House series but you can totally read it and not feel as though you are lost.  It was my first book by Author AJ Pines.  I loved the characters in the book.  I enjoyed AJ Pines way of writing.  It was an easy and sweet read for me.  I look forward to reading more from her. 

Wes has come home to try to get out of his writer’s block.  See he is an author.  His first book is selling like hot cakes.  But with his deadline for book 2 looming over his head, he has to get out of the city and see if he can figure out something or he is going to be a one hit wonder.  Wes not sure if coming home is the best thing; there are too many memories and realities that he will have to face.  But when he runs into Annie, maybe coming back wasn’t such a bad thing.

Anna is a book blogger and the owner of a local bookstore.  Books have been her things.  So owning her own bookstore was perfect.  Well if she was selling books and not worrying about making bank to pay her best friend for doing the books for her.  Anna has always believe in HEA in her books and in life.  I mean her parents have been married and happy for years.  So why can’t she find her prince charming and live happily ever after?

Anna and Wes have this chemistry between them but Anna seems to remember her little brother’s best friend, sitting on the couching playing video games back when he was a teen.  But now he is 25 and an author who does not do HEA.  She wants to show him that everyone should want for their own happy even in books.


As Anna and Wes agree to a casual fling, Wes seems to have found his muse and his words are flowing.  Anna maybe just what he needs to get book 2 written.  But will the fiery red headed green eyed beauty give Wes more than he bargained for?

Bad Reputation by Author Nicole Edwards



A copy of this book was provided via Net Galley for an honest review.

Bad Reputation (Bad Boys of Sports #1)

Author Nicole Edwards

4 stars

What can I say but if you love sports romances then this is the read for you.  I have been a huge fan of Author Nicole Edwards.  She did not disappoint in this book.  I enjoyed the banner between the characters.  And wish that I was friends with these characters.  I look forward to reading more in this new series.

Chase and Cassie have been bffs since they meet in college when Chase needed a tutor.  Cassie set him straight then and has been for years.  They are whatever bff wants in each other.  Support, love and fun times.  But their bodies and minds seem to want more.  They have been fighting a good fight to keep those desires in check.

When Cassie has to go to Vegas for a week, of course she would invite Chase to go with her. Why not?  He has just finished up his hockey season and could use the break.  Plus Cassie needs her bff there.  And why not, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas right?!


Can Cassie and Chase cross that friends lines and still be bff?  Or will they ruin the friendship they have?  Maybe they could become so much more?  

Breaching the Contract by Author Chantal Fernando




This book was provided via Net Galley for an honest review.

4 Stars

I have been a fan of Author Chantal Fernando from her Wing Dragons MC Series.  Her way of writing flows and will draw you into the story.

Breaching the Contract is book 1 in her Conflict of Interest series.  If you enjoy office romances then this is the book for you.  The characters will have you smiling and laughing as they learn the dynamics of working together.  It was short and sweet read for me.  I look forward to reading the next in this series.

Katerina Dawson has just passed the bar and starting as a junior associate at one of the most sought after law firms in city.  She has big dreams of doing what she loves, fighting for people: helping defend them.  But her job is not exactly what she signed up for.  As she learns to handle herself when she is around her boss, Tristan Channing. 

Tristan Channing has no desire to have to baby sit the new associate Katerina Dawson.  But when his partner takes a leave of absence, he has to do what is needed for the firm.  Tristan knows that Katerina is capable for being an outstanding attorney but she stirs feeling in him that he has not felt in a while.  Better to have her doing errands away from the office then having temptation right there.


As things heat up between Katerina and Tristan, they will have to learn to keep their desires in check while at the office.  But can they do this?  Or will the looks and simple touches be too much?
