Book Review: Commitment by T.K. Leigh

Commitment by T.K. Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Commitment is the first book of the Redemption Duet featuring Drew and Brooklyn. We first met Drew and Brooklyn in Writing Mr. Right and then in their extended prologue/prequel, Promise. This book broke my heart… over and over and over again. Every time you think you you’re getting the payoff you’re wanting, you get thrown in the opposite direction. The cliffhanger left me wanting the second book right now to see what happens next!

I love Drew’s Aunt GiGi just as much in this book as I did in Writing Mr. Right (WMR). I also enjoyed the update and appearances of Molly and Noah, the mains from WMR. There are new characters that add to the story.

Book Review: Promise by T.K. Leigh

Promise: A Redemption Series Prologue by T.K. Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was intrigued by Brooklyn and Drew in T.K.’s book, Writing Mr. Right. So, I was excited to learn that she was giving them their own story. Not just one book, but two plus a prequel!

Promise is the prequel to Brooklyn and Drew’s story. The events take place when they are teens/young adults and explains the past these two characters have. After reading this novella, I am excited and eager to get into reading the duet that tells their current story. I already have feelings about them just from this read.

If your next read is going to be Commitment, the first book in the Redemption Series, then please pick up Promise first! This backstory is amazing!

Blurb

I once was lost, but now I’m found.

The name's Carina Ricci and Mateo belongs to me.
He thinks he’s the leader, but he’s blind to what I see.
He’s just a pawn in this sick and twisted game.
As of right now, things are still tame.

I was promised to him since birth,
But what he doesn’t know is this …
I’m crazy.
The level of crazy everyone fears and my sights are set on him.

The secrets, lies, and blood I’ve shed,
Make the psychopath buzz in my head.
He’s my king, and I’m his queen.
He’ll shiver when he sees the things I’ve seen.

Yet, what I didn’t expect is to be caught in this, too.
The game we are playing is starting anew.
The enemy is now becoming a friend.
I think we’re all going to die when it finally ends.

Cover Reveal: Irrevocable by Addison Jane

Title: Irrevocable

Series: The Exiled Eight MC #1

Author: Addison Jane
Genre: Contemporary MC Romance
Cover Design: Marisa, Cover Me Darling

Release Date: August 6, 2018

Blurb

Our pasts were a part of us.

Definitively.

Irrevocably.

Mine hijacked my dreams every night, drowning me in guilt and staining my hands red.

It wasn’t just a part of me, it stole a piece of me—the piece that stopped me from letting people get too close.

And I’d become pretty damn good at playing the untouchable asshole card just to keep them away.

But apparently, Dakota Samuels didn’t get that memo.

From the moment she accidentally walked in on me naked, she began to demolish any and every wall I’d ever built.

She was sexy and tenacious.

And I was addicted to the way she looked at me.

To the way she fought for me.

To the way her body felt beneath mine.

We were both done with running from the demons of our pasts.

They were going to find us.

They were going to try and destroy us.

And they may have won before, but like hell I was going to let them take her from me too.

Because if they tried, this time the blood I saw in my dreams would be theirs.

Cover Reveal + Giveaway: Two Weeks Notice by Whitney G.

Two Weeks Notice

by Whitney G. 

Publication Date: July 20, 2018 

Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

To Whom It May Concern: I am writing this letter to formally announce my resignation from Parker International (& the arrogant, condescending CEO) effective two weeks from today. This was a VERY EASY decision to make, as the past two years have been utterly miserable. I wish his next executive assistant all the luck in the world (she'll need it) and if my boss should need me to do anything over the next two weeks, kindly tell him that he can do it [his] goddamn self... Sincerely (Not Really), Tara Lauren ** That’s the version of my two weeks’ notice I should’ve sent to my boss, because the more professional version--the one where I said I was "grateful for all the opportunities," and "honored by all the rewarding experiences" over the years? That letter was rejected with his sexy, trademark smirk and an “I highly suggest you read the fine print of your contract...” So, I did. And now I've realized that unless I fake my death, poison him, or find a way to renegotiate my impossible contract, I’m stuck working under one of the cockiest and most ruthless bosses in New York. Then again, I thought that was the case until he called me late last night with an emergency proposition...

**This is a standalone contemporary romance.**

Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.

Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.

In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.

Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.

“That and taking a bullet for you is my job. I do it well. You must believe that, too, or you would have hired someone else.” “You are one stubborn man. My grandfather’s mules could take lessons from you. I’ll be out in ten minutes.” She whirled around and headed for her bathroom in the back, then shut the door. Cutter couldn’t stop the smile from creeping across his face. Had Shealyn just compared him to an ass? He’d decided she had when she emerged in a gauzy white dress trimmed in lace that accentuated the hint of gold in her sun-kissed skin. The thin straps clung to the tips of her shoulders, as if threatening to slip down at any moment, and played peekaboo with her blond tresses. The garment stretched tight across her breasts, the three little buttons keeping the bodice shut threatening to pop if she made a too- sudden move. The flimsy thing also ended well above her knees and, with her white cowboy boots, framed her sleek thighs. Cutter felt his thoughts evaporate and his tongue go dry. The rest of him turned stone hard. He shouldn’t think twice about Shealyn as a woman, but so far, that seemed to be asking the impossible. “You’re wearing that?” She cocked her head at him. “What’s wrong with it? Or are you suggesting this dress is somehow dangerous?” Her challenge and sass turned him on even more. Hell, everything about her did. But he was way out of line. The dress portrayed precisely the image she’d cultivated. It was sweetly sexy. Wearing it, Shealyn looked like a gorgeous siren with western flair… and a hint of innocence. The problem—and obviously all the lust—was his alone. “I’m making you aware that you may attract unwanted male attention in public. But I’ll handle it,” Cutter promised, meeting her gaze and doing his best to shutter the desire burning through his blood. She stared back, a hint of a smile playing at her lips. “You think I’ll attract male attention, huh?” Was she fishing for compliments? Her green eyes danced with something he couldn’t put his finger on. Mischief? Flirtation? No. Why would she come on to him when she was already in a high-profile relationship? Shealyn didn’t strike him as one of those women who got off on yanking a man’s chain. Then again, he didn’t know her well. Whatever she was up to, he couldn’t rise to her bait. “Ms. West?” He kept his voice as inflectionless and polite as possible. “Mr. Bryant.” Another hint of playful dare rang in her tone. “I told you, it’s Cutter.” “All right. Cutter.” She damn near sighed his name. “You going to answer my question?” What the hell did she want him to say? Some reckless part of him he’d sworn he didn’t possess itched to simply show her, cross the half- dozen steps between them, take that wisp of a garment in his grip, and tear it off. Once he’d exposed every inch of her body, he would love to put his hands on her, his mouth on her, so she understood what a dress like that did to him. Hell, what she did to him. A sudden pounding on the door broke the moment between them. “You ready yet?” Tower shouted from outside. Despite the man’s insistence, she didn’t move to admit him or even answer. She just stared Cutter’s way. “I’m waiting.” Cutter searched for a discreet reply. “The dress reveals more skin than it hides. It might give a man the wrong idea.” “What idea is that?” The kinds of ideas racing through his head with juggernaut speed and jetting blood south to his cock. “That he can touch you. That he can have you.” “Is that what this dress makes you think?” The flash of her eyes and the husky voice she used to ask the question torqued him up. She was definitely fishing for his reaction. Was she hoping he bit because she needed the ego stroke… or was she baiting her hook and tossing it his way because she was actually hoping to reel him in? “What I think about the dress doesn’t matter.” “Then why does it bother you? You saw me in less on set.” Oh, he’d seen her damn near naked. Hour after hour of exposed skin had taunted him with all the beauty a country boy like him would never have the right to possess. But this dress appealed to his deepest fantasies. She looked wholesome yet sensual, a woman aware of her appeal. A female who knew exactly what she wanted in her man…
