Review Link: Purchased

The first time we met was at a party.

Your ex arrived to show off the person he'd left you for last month, and you asked me to pretend to be your date.

I was more than happy to help. You were attractive, smart and witty--and that kiss we shared? It left me wanting you for days.

The second time we met was in my office on campus where we were both surprised to discover you were the new master’s degree student in poetry that I would be working with. You promised to be professional. I did no such thing.

The late nights and intense study sessions spent alongside you majorly throw me off my game. I want you, and I fight with myself daily over this fact.

I know I'm crass, that my sexual innuendos and dirty mouth annoy you, but I live for those two bright spots of color in your cheeks. If that's the only reaction I can get out of you, I'll gladly take it.

You hate Mondays so every Monday I slip an anonymous poem into your bag and your smile gets me through the week.

I think I'm falling for you, and I know it's wrong. I know that I'm only supposed to be the adviser to your program and nothing more, but here's the thing. I think you're falling for me too.

xo, Zach

 xo, Zach is a very cute story about an adviser and his student in college. The two meet previously one night before finding out they would be paired up at school. So it comes as a shock to them both when they have their first meeting at school. Now how awkward is it, VERY! Zach is very into Poppy, and Poppy is too, but she is more reserved about it. Then add the situation, that they are adviser and student, and its probably not allowed in the school policy. So this has Poppy a bit freaked out. She keeps turning down Zach, but their is only so much she can take. Zach does not give up easily.

The push and pull from these two, is so thick, you can slice it with a knife. They both petty much can't stop thinking (dreaming) about each other, and the more days pass, the stronger the connection. And when Zach starts fighting with poems, how does a girl resist that. Poppy was a goner! Yes, you read that right, he started writing her poems and she could not resit a man, that could write such beautiful words.

So after the push and pull, they finally give in. Well, I should say, Poppy does. Zach was giving up already and about to move on. Poppy finally came to her senses, and gave it a shot. Zach wasn't prepared for Poppy's big surprise. How did he take it? Guess you'll have to find out and read the book to know.

This book is another great one by Kendall Ryan. I love all her stories. She doesn't fail at giving us guys we can't help failing for. This story is cute and a fast read. If you love HEA, then grab xo, Zach today. Forgot to mention, how much I love that title.

Book Review: Dirty Little Secret by Kendall Ryan

DIRTY LITTLE SECRET
Forbidden Desires #1
Author: Kendall Ryan
Reading Level: New Adult
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Released: September 14, 2017
Review Source: InkSlingerPR

The start to a sexy new series from New York Times bestselling author, Kendall Ryan...

She’s much too innocent for me, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting the sweet, young librarian. I’m dominating and possessive, and my control streak runs a mile wide.

The way she looks at me—like I’m one of the heroes in the books she loves, like I’m broken, and she wants to be the one to piece me back together—it only complicates things further. I’m nobody’s hero.

But there’s no denying my tragic past reads like one of her favorite literary classics. It’s raw. Visceral. Captivating. And together, we’re a perfect mess.

How am I expected to resist when the sexual sparks zap between us and set me on fire? The need to control, and claim her force my walls to come tumbling down, but when she learns my dirty little secret, will my world come crashing down with it?

The story continues in Dirty Little Promise, releasing October 30th.

I love Kendall Ryan.  Dirty Little Secret was exactly what I needed to read at the moment.  I have been staying away from book with overly alpha/dominating males for a little while because it felt overdone to me but this book was awesome.

Emma Bell is portrayed as a quiet Librarian going through the motions of life but not really living.  She's dealt with struggles and hard experiences, which made her leary of relationships.  However, she has a slight obsession over a sexy, white collar, man she sees daily at the coffee shop.

The sexy suit, Gavin Kingsley is a wealthy CEO that runs a no sex dating service for the rich, with his two brothers.  They have built an empire an over come a difficult past.  Emma ends up on their business doorstep and gets offered a job she never expected.

Kendall Ryan can write the hell out of a steamy romance book and knows how to create a sexy hero.  I absolutely loved this book.  The chemistry in this story is nuclear.  I'm rating this book 4.5 stars because it was the start of a great series and I cannot wait to see what comes next.

Book Review: The Soul Mate by Kendall Ryan

THE SOUL MATE
Roommates #4
Author: Kendall Ryan
Reading Level: New Adult
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Released: August 14, 2017

From New York Times Bestseller Kendall Ryan comes a sexy new stand-alone novel in her Roommates series.

The smoking-hot one-night stand I was never supposed to see again?

Yeah, well, I might be pregnant, and he’s my OB-GYN.

Get ready to fall head over heels madly in love with the hottest OBGYN doctor you have ever met! This full-length standalone contains the most hilariously awkward lady-doctor visit, lots of playful banter and some good ol' fashioned baby-makin'!

I love Kendall Ryan books!  Every one hooks you from the start and takes you on an awesome journey.  I am not a big pregnancy during the book fan.  Normally I wouldn't pick it up, but I have loved this series so far and decided to give it a shot.

This story starts out with an incredible one night stand.  Mason, the amazing hero (which has been added to my book bf list) is obsessed with Bren from that moment but she doesn't leave anything AT ALL behind.  Jump forward several weeks and she shows up as his new OB patient coming in for a pregnancy test.

I was a huge Mason fan during the whole book.  He is pretty much what book boyfriends dreams are made of.  He's sexy, sweet, and a doctor.  Basically, the total package.  I love Bren also but not as much as Kendall's other heroines.  I love her fierce independence and personality in general but her stubborn streak made me want to shake some sense into her at the same time.

This story can be read as a standalone as well as the other stories in the series but I do recommend reading the whole series because the books are really good.  This was a quick, light read and I was able to read it in one sitting.  I'm rating this book 4 stars because I liked it a lot and would recommend it.  It switched up the babies in books for me a little bit which I liked.

Book Review: The House Mate by Kendall Ryan

THE HOUSE MATE
Roommates #3
Author: Kendall Ryan
Reading Level: New Adult
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Released: April 18, 2017
Review Source: InkSlinger PR

What’s sexier than a bad boy? A bad ass man who’s got his shit together.

Max Alexander is nearing thirty-five. He’s built a successful company, and he’s conquered the professional world, but he’s never been lucky in love. Focusing so much time on his business and raising his daughter, adulting has come at the expense of his personal life.

His social skills are shit, his patience is shot, and at times, his temper runs hot.

The last thing he has time for is the recently single, too gorgeous for her own good young woman he hires to take care of his little girl. She’s a distraction he doesn’t need, and besides, there’s no way she’d be interested. But you know what they say about assumptions?

This is book 3 in the Roommates series, but each book can be read as a complete standalone as they all feature new couples to fall in love with.

This story was so good!  An incredibly sexy, tatted, new dad and a stunning live in nanny that's sworn off men make for the hottest, tension!  I definitely recommend grabbing a giant fan while reading this.

This story is about Max and Addison.  Max is a sexy business owner, bad boy, that doesn't really do relationships.  Addison is smart, beautiful, and recently jobless/homeless due to her last failed relationship.  She has officially sworn to herself not to get into another situation with a man like that again.  That is, until she meets Max.  Max comes home one day with a one night stand in his car with him to find a woman from his past holding a baby outside of his house.  To his utter surprise she leaves the baby saying it is his and she can't "do this anymore".  This is where the story truly begins.

I loved the amount of tension between Max and Addison.  The sparks that practically fly off the page while reading this story - OMG amazing!!  Kendall Ryan knows how to write sexual tension.  That is one of my favorite things to read, when it's done good and Kendall Ryan does it great.  There wasn't too much angst so I found this story to be an easy going, fun read!

I am giving this book 4.5 stars because it was really entertaining and I couldn't put it down once I started it.  I was able to read it pretty fast because it was a quick story.  I definitely recommend this author and this book!

Book Review: The Play Mate by Kendall Ryan

THE PLAY MATE
Roommates #2
Author: Kendall Ryan
Reading Level: New Adult
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Released: March 13, 2017
Review Source: InkslingerPR

Smith Hamilton has it all—he's smart, good-looking and loaded. But he remembers a time when he had nothing and no one, so he's not about to mess up, especially with his best friend’s little sister. That means keeping Evie at arm's length … even though the once pesky little girl is now a buxom bombshell. A sexy blonde who pushes his self-control to the limit the night she crawls into bed with him.

Evie Reed knows she's blessed—with an exclusive education, a family who loves her, and a new job managing social media for her family's lingerie company. But she wants more, like a reason to wear the sexy lingerie herself. She has just the man in mind to help with that. She's crushed on Smith forever. Surely tricking her way into his bed will force him to see her in a new, adult way.

Except that when Evie's plan leads to disaster, she and Smith must decide—ignore the attraction sizzling between them, or become play mates and risk it all.

OK, Kendall Ryan, I see you!!  This is my first book by Kendall Ryan and I flippen loved it!  I honestly did not know The Play Mate was a part of a series until I started to review it.  I mention this because you can definitely read this book as a standalone or read the whole series, which is what I recommend because HOLY MOSES it is that good.

The Play Mate has one of my favorite story lines:  Well to do heroine (Evie) likes the "forbidden" brother's best friend (Smith), which ALSO happens to work with both of them EVERY.  SINGLE.  DAY.  However, this is so not your average office romance.  You will be hooked on this book from the very start!

I just have to say, I LOVE EVIE!  She is so freakin awesome.  The way she one day decided she was going to go for the man she wanted no matter what had me admiring the girl.  Although it may have been an unconventional plan to get the guy, it still took MAJOR balls and it made me love her that much more!  Smith is the full package, smart, wealthy and EXTREMELY SEXY so you know he made it on my book boyfriend list.  Not to mention I love his name!  The tension between these two was scorching.  This tension is why I love the forbidden romance story-lines and Kendall Ryan did not disappoint.

I'm giving this story 4.5 stars because it was so sexy, and well written.  I could not put this book down and finished it in less than a day because it was THAT AMAZING.  I can't wait to read the next book in the series and will be adding Kendall Ryan to my list of authors to keep on my radar!
