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 (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?
