Review: Tool by Sabrina Paige

OK, a few weeks ago I wrote a post about Stepbrother Romances, Yay or Nay. And I got a lot of (positive) feedback about the current theme in indie, new adult books. Well, since that post, I read two more stepbrother taboo books, and guess what… I loved them both. So hello bandwagon, I’m Kristi and I continue to enjoy these taboo love affairs. To read my post about the current trend of stepbrother romances, including Prick, also by Sabrina Paige, click here. I recently read the new release, Tool: A Stepbrother Romance, this past weekend and what can I say… it has all the goodies I love in these new adult books. 1. Hot, bad ass stepbrother 2. Smart, trendy heroine (the stepsister) 3. Chemistry and banter (love hate relationship, angst) 4. Hot sex (dirty, wet panties sex) 5. HEA I loved this book. I loved it so much my… Read more »

On the dance floor, the energy picked up as the geezers began to move to the faster beat. “Let’s go,” I said, standing up. I offered Bella my hand. But Bella shook her head. Even worse, she scooted her chair toward the wall. “Don’t leave me hanging,” I said, my hand still waiting in the air. “Come on now. Nobody… Read more »

GIVEAWAY and Release Day Blitz for Fall With Me by Jennifer Armentrout

As you know, I’m a really big fan of this author. I devour all her books…she never disappoints! Once you read this excerpt, I know you will do what I did and one-click! FALL WITH ME Excerpt: Someone—was it Melvin?—catcalled as Reece led me down the hall, and my cheeks flushed. “Okay, heman, I can walk all by my little self.” He cast a look over his shoulder at me as he opened the office door. “I’m sure you can.” Then he pulled me inside. My gaze flipped to the roses—the roses!—but before I could say a word, he closed the door and my back was pressed against it, his hands planted on either side of my head and his face right in mine. Like right there, within kissing distance. Wow. “So, I was at my father’s place in New Jersey most of the day, and you know, he lives… Read more »

A. MUST. READ… Need by KI Lynn and N. Isabelle Blanco

Kristi’s Review: I don’t even know how I can adequately put my thoughts into words that would remotely come close to telling you how much I freaking LOVED this book. Love—is an understatement. I devoured this book. I want to reread this book, already. I want each and every romance person out there to read this book. Brayden is such a dirty talker…and I loved every word. I heard a lot about this book from my book friends. So I one-clicked when it released. I’m digging the taboo reads lately, and if you follow this blog or our Facebook page, or know me from Shrike Bikes, you know I’m a fan of the step-brother trend in books. This is by far MY FAVORITE step-brother read to date. It’s a top read so far this year. It’s a top NA read, ever. So why did I wait to read this book?… Read more »

Giveaway and Happy Release Day to Alyssa Rose Ivy for her book, The Hazards of Sleeping with a Friend!

Exclusive Excerpt! The Hazards of Sleeping with a Friend by Alyssa Rose Ivy I’d never seen Jade so happy and light. Her smile was real. It wasn’t the sarcastic, casual smile she used at school, but a giant, I love life smile that made my heart beat faster. This was the real Jade. Jade with the pony tail and no makeup, with sneakers and shorts, and a little bit of mud. I wanted to believe it was more than the outdoors bringing it out in her. I wanted to believe it was me. But it probably wasn’t. I generally didn’t have that effect on people, but I could pretend. I could pretend that the night—and morning—we spent together would become something more. “I could stay out here forever.” Jade pulled on my arm to get me to look out at the view. “I could too, but it’s going to rain.”… Read more »

Stepbrother Romance… Yay or Nay? A review of Prick by Sabrina Paige

Just this weekend, there have been posts in reading groups I’m a member in all about stepbrother romances… and whether you love, like, tolerate or hate them. The ongoing posts about the popularity of these taboo books are evident in my Facebook newsfeeds and I have to admit, I really enjoy a good taboo stepbrother story. There’s nothing I love more than a good girl involved with a bad boy, add stepbrother to the equation and I can’t put it down, most of the time. Let me stress, I do NOT like, enjoy or read incest books. I just can’t do it, and I am one of the few who couldn’t finish Flowers in the Attic. I know, that series has a huge following, and many, many of my friends devoured those books when I was in high school. I just, NO, I can’t read those. However, add the forbidden,… Read more »
