Sexy
Summer Fling: A Sexy Summer Anthology - Helena Hunting,Vi Keeland,R.S. Grey,Sarina Bowen,Penelope Ward,Willow Winters, L.J. Shen

This is an anthology of 6 books by 7 incredible authors.  FREE to you for a limited time only. I will choose one short story to write my review.  My review will be on Sarina Bowen's Lucky Shot.

 

Bess is new employee working for an established sports agency.  With her birhday coming up, her boss invites her to dinner with some new clients.  She figures it will give her experience, so why not go?

 

Mark AKA "Tank" is excited to be chosen to work with the team in New York.  He was more than pleased to meet such a sexy woman at dinner too.  Maybe they should get to know one another?

 

This was a quick jaunt into the lives of some very talented characters.  I was pleased to get to read their "meet cute."  Right from the beginning they are attracted to each other.  The fact they are intelligent only adds to the attraction.  We see these amazing characters again in the current book Sure Shot.  This anthology brought some serious fun reads to me.  I was very grateful to get this collection for FREE also.  Link for you to get your copy is below.  I give this anthology a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Wavering
Broken Love (Sinners of Saint 4) - L. J. Shen

This is book #2 in the All Saints High series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding of the series, I recommend reading this compelling series in order.

 

Knight is the best friend to the very love of his life.  They have grown up together, the children of parents who are also best friends.  More like family.  So being in love with her is basically a no-no.

 

Luna has long known that Knight, with his outgoing personality, will outgrow her and move on soon.  She is trying to come to terms with it and be grateful she has had him her whole life as such a good friend.  Really loving someone and knowing you have to let them go is painful.

 

This book just did it to me.  I laughed, I cried, & I hurt for the characters too.  This story has a little of everything.  This series is so strong and exciting with so many surprises!  Always a go to author, this book is just another example of why I pick this author up each and every time.  What an enormously epic read.  I give this a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Revenge
Pretty Reckless - Grace L.C. Shen-Ong

Penn has much to blame on Daria.  After he helped her to shoo his sister away, he spends the next four years on ice.  Literally not feeling anything, until he sees her again.

 

Daria has been trying to be seen.  She is not seen or heard at home.  She gravitates toward the loners, even though she is part of the popular kids at school.  Her attraction to Penn is the only thing she really feels.

 

This dark romance was quite the surprise.  I felt all the feels.  I laughed, cried, and basically begged for mercy as I got closer to the end of the book.  This is a story full of very deep and rich characters.  I found myself spellbound by them and wondering what they would do next.  I think this was a great read.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

We were supposed to be best friends

 

But turned out to be worst enemies…

 

Penn

 

They say revenge is a dish best served cold.

 

I’d had four years to stew on what Daria Followhill did to me, and now my heart is completely iced.

 

I took her first kiss.

 

She took the only thing I loved.

 

I was poor.

 

She was rich.

 

The good thing about circumstances? They can change. Fast.

 

Now, I’m her parents’ latest shiny project.

 

Her housemate. Her tormentor. The captain of the rival football team she hates so much.

Yeah, baby girl, say it—I’m your foster brother.

 

There’s a price to pay for ruining the only good thing in my life, and she’s about to shell out some serious tears.

 

Daria Followhill thinks she is THE queen. I’m about to prove to her that she’s nothing but a spoiled princess.

 

 

 

Daria

 

Everyone loves a good-old, unapologetic punk.

 

But being a bitch? Oh, you get slammed for every snarky comment, cynical eye roll, and foot you put in your adversaries’ way.

 

The thing about stiletto heels is that they make a hell of a dent when you walk all over the people who try to hurt you.

 

In Penn Scully’s case, I pierced his heart until he bled out, then left it in a trash can on a bright summer day.

 

Four years ago, he asked me to save all of my firsts for him.

 

Now he lives across the hall, and there’s nothing I want more than to be his last everything.

 

His parting words when he gave me his heart were that nothing in this world is free.

 

Now? Now he is making me pay.

Excerpt:

 

“I don’t want you transferring into my school,” I hiss out. Melody would gladly file a transfer request, and Principal Prichard would salivate over the chance to snatch him up for our football team.

 

“That won’t be a problem. You guys suck so much ass, you have shit-breath.”

 

“Still smells better than poverty. You’re poor, right? Your sister was just bullshitting about being rich.”

 

When someone hits me with a stick, I run over them with a tank. I’m so mean to him I want to throw up. I hate this part of being me. The striking harder at all costs part.

 

“Just to make things clear.” I put the brush down, batting my lashes. “You’re not my step-sibling, foster brother, or a part of the family. You’re a stray dog. Last of the litter, most unlikely to be adopted, and a charity case.”

 

Penn takes a step toward me, and my heart is fighting its way out of my ribcage. The closer he gets, the more I realize that my heart might succeed. Penn’s eyes remind me of a snake’s. Mesmerizing, but inhuman altogether. They weren’t like that before.

His scent messes with my head. I want to reach out and caress his face. Kiss his wounds better. Beg for forgiveness. Curse him. Push him away. Cry on his shoulder for what we’ve done. For how it ended. For what we became afterwards, because I’m full of crap and he is totally empty.

 

We ruined ourselves the day of our first kiss.

 

Penn looks down at me. Time stops. It feels like the world is losing gravity, falling into a bottomless depth in space when he clasps my chin with his thumb and finger, lifting my head up. I can’t breathe. I’m not sure I want to, either. My towel drops to the floor with a thud, even though I secured it over my chest. I realize that he tugged at it intentionally. I’m naked. My body, my soul, my heart. All my walls are down. Somewhere in my head, a red alarm blasts and my inhibitions are getting armed, ready to fight back. I’m trying to decode his expression. He is amused, irritated, and…playful? The mixture of emotions doesn’t make any sense.

 

“Mess with me, Followhill, and I will ruin you.”

 

“Not if I ruin you first.”
