A Need So Insatiable (Book 1, Hearts Series) by Author Cecelia Robert


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

2 stars

DNF  I made it half way through and had to stop.   There was just so much going on, it was hard to keep up with.  It felt like there were several stories going on with this one.  I think had the author taken all these stories and concentrated on just one story and feelers for the other stories, it would have been a great book.  I enjoyed the blurb and could not wait to dive into this book.  I am sure I will grab another book by the author just to see if it was just this book that was not my cup of tea.  

The One (Book 1, The Only One Series) by Author Belle Ami

DNF 
I usually am able to continue reading a book even when I do not enjoy it.  But this was not the case.  I just could not get into the story.  It jumped all over the place.  There seems to be no rhyme or rhythm to the story.  The blurb to the book sounded amazing and I do believe the book would be if it was plotted out with a timeline and stuck to it.  

Risky Play (Book 1 in Red Card Series) by Author Rachel Van Dyken



4 stars

I absolutely enjoyed this book and a great start to Author Rachel Van Dyken's new series Red Card.  We venture into the sports field with this one.  I did not know alot about soccer but think I do now.

Mackenzie thought she had it all; great job, supportive family and a loving fiance until she is left at the alter on her wedding day.  She can not seem to understand how he could do such a thing to her.  But after trying to get on with her life, she knows she just needs to get away for a few days to find herself again.  

Slade is that guy, the star athlete that has becomes famous in his sport, supportive family and any chick he wants.  But once in awhile you just want to be you.  Not all of the labels that are placed on you.  So a much needed vacation is exactly what Slade needs.

A chance encounter between Mackenzie and Slade will turn their worlds upside down if only for the weekend.  When faced with the chance of death, you take the chance.  You face death head on.  Both Mackenzie and Slade will be forced to face demons once they return to their lives but life has a way of coming full circle.

The banner between Slade and Mackenzie had me laughing out loud at how easily their relationship was.  They were meant for each other.  But can they both put the past behind them and move forward together?

Tossed Into Love (Book 3 in the Fluke My Life Series) by Author Aurora Rose Reynolds



4 stars

This is book 3 in the Fluke My Life series by Author Aurora Rose Reynolds.  

Libby and Antonio.   Libby is that sweet girl next door who would do anything to help you out and shows that she does just that when needed.  She steps up when there are no benefits for her except for her big heart.  Libby has a strong work ethic.  She has a great job and started a side business but there is just something missing.  She realizes what it is and life has a way of tossing a new beginning right into your hands when you less expect it.

Antonio.  What can I say about him but he was a jerk from page 1.  He has his own issues to work out but taking them out on sweet Libby made me want to jack him up.  Antonio soon realizes that he must make some changes in his life if he wants to end up with the girl and live the dream.

Super sweet read and love all of ARR books.   I am looking forward to more from her.
