BLURB

 

We all have that one person who makes our skin crawl with irritation.
 
When you see them, you just want to high-five them…in the face…with a chair.
For me, that's Gage Calloway.
It doesn't matter how wonderful everyone else might think he is, I can't stand the man.
And if I never have to see him again, it would be too soon.
Unfortunately, the universe likes to torment me.
When my bakery catches fire, he is the one to pull me out.
And when my little kitchen needs rebuilding? One guess who's assigned to do that job?
Yup, Gage freaking Calloway.
I have no idea how I am going to get through the next few months having him in my space all the time.
Especially when my heart doesn't hate him at all.

EXCERPT

“What’s this?” he asked as he took the container from me. His calloused hand scraped over the back of my fingers during the transfer, and I bit my tongue to stop myself from cussing out loud.
 
When my hands were finally free, I shoved them into my back pockets, hoping like hell the tingling feeling coating my skin would disappear soon. “It’s an assortment of muffins. Some savory, some sweet.” I shrugged. “Figured the guys might like a snack.”
 
“Muffins, huh?” Not caring that I was right there in front of him, he removed the lid and lifted the container to his nose before inhaling deeply. “Mmm, can’t wait to get my mouth on your muffin.”
 
It didn’t matter how he meant it; my poor sex-deprived brain only provided me with images of him kneeling before me. Hands threaded through his hair, that sinful mouth driving me insane while he provided me with enough pleasure to make my toes curl.
Oh, for shit’s sake! This was Gage. I seriously needed to get a damn grip. Preferably a penis-sized one with a man who wasn’t Gage attached to it. Slicking my tongue over my teeth, I gave him a piss-off stare. “Dream on! Your filthy mouth isn’t coming anywhere near my muffin.”
 
It didn’t have the desired effect. Being the asshole he was, Gage stared right back at me, the intensity in his eyes flooding me with heat. So much heat. That turned into a raging inferno when he ignored my personal bubble and inched closer still.
 
Gaze bouncing between my eyes and my lips, he murmured, “You sure about that? I bet you’d feel so good watching me devour every bit of it. You’d probably even beg me to eat it again.”
 
Shit! I was fairly certain we hadn’t been talking about food at all and one hundred percent sure I was turned on beyond belief and now needed a change of underwear. He didn’t need to know any of this. Although if he chanced a look at my chest, I was pretty sure my boo bees would be dead giveaways.
 
Lifting my chin higher, I said, “You’re awfully full of yourself.”
 
“You could be full of me too.”
 
 
 
 
Wild Fire (Breathing Hearts #3)Wild Fire by A.K. MacBride
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book # 3 in the Breathing Hearts series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. For reader enjoyment and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order.

Frankie is just baking as usual when she feels tired and woozy. Next thing she knows she is face to face with a blast from the past she did not want to see. Rescuing her was nice, but coming back for more is just wrong.

Gage wants to move on from the past. He comes back to his hometown with his daughter to start over. Seeing Frankie puts him on alert. Seeing her all the time gets his heart racing. Can they get along long enough to work things out?

This story moved at such a quick pace. The characters are strong with the heated backstory that sets the book on sizzle right from chapter one. Sexy and smart, this was an enjoyable and relaxing read.

AUTHOR BIO
 
 

 

Author of romances that leave you with ALL the feels.
 
She likes her coffee big and strong and her chocolate sinfully dark.
Living in a small town in South Africa, she’s afforded the luxury of being surrounded by mountains and waking up to birds singing their morning songs.
In addition to her coffee and chocolate obsession, she can’t say no to cheesecake or pastry.
When she is not creating emotional reads that tug on heartstrings, she’s busy being a wife to her best friend and a mom to a sassy little girl (whom she wouldn’t want any other way).
 
She just so happens to love stalkers, so don’t be shy and get your stalk on.

Frustrating
Slow Burn - A.K. MacBride

This is book #2 in the Breathing Hearts series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  To understand the series, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order.

 

Maddie got a first impression of the new neighbor.  Hint: It was not a good one. He was flat out rude. He was also hot as hell.  If she can get her mind of that magnificent tattooed bod, thinks may start looking up.

 

Adam misses his old life.  Moving to make a change, he left behind parents, career and everything that was familiar.  Now he has a neighbor with a dog who won't leave him alone.  Would be easier if he could ignore them both.

 

Between fighting the attraction and fighting one another, the sparks just literally continue to fly.  The heat is raring hot and the characters are intriguing.  I liked the pace and the story was a great read.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Steamy
Instant Heat - A.K. MacBride

Rae is talked into hooking up with the new local hottie.  Little does she know, when they finally exchange names there are several surprises!  What happens when she wants more?

 

Griffin was thrilled to find a welcoming woman, but he timing could have been better.  Once he finds out her brother works with him there is possible repercussions.  Should they take a chance on what they may have found?

 

While I found the pace quick, and the story rather fascinating, I was generally annoyed by the accent from Griffin being overly much.  I know the author was trying to set a tone, but it really turned me off.  The characters, however, are a joy to read and the fireworks were poppin'!  I give this book a 3/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Review: Shattered by A.K. MacBride
Shattered - A.K. MacBride

Hope is what keeps the world alive.

Shattered by A.K MacBride is a story about diminished hopes and dreams. About people who believe they are too broken for someone else. 
Harper ran away from her abusive husband when she was pregnant. And now, six years later she is still afraid he will find her and doesn’t stay at the same place for more than a few months. But Willow Creek is different. She likes it here, has a real friend who cares about her and a neighbor who is hell bent on dating her. 
 Logan yearns for a family he can’t have. But after seeing Harper and her son, his desire skyrockets. He wants her, and she creates a safe distance from him. 
I liked the story. There was emotion, there was love and a cute kid. The kid stole all the limelight. It was adorable how he looked up to Logan and how Logan behaved when he was with him. The other characters were blurred for me. Logan’s brother was the only one with a lasting effect. 
This was a one-time well-worth read for me.
