It’s a man’s world.

When I declared sports medicine as my major and every man narrowed their eyes, that saying proved true. It was true when my ex-husband decided I’d give up my career when our daughter was born. And again when I divorced the Chief of Police in our small town, and he made it painfully clear that I could leave him, but I would never be free.

Landing the job as the new athletic trainer for Stratford’s high school team is my chance to start over. And walking into a male-dominated sport and staff, I’m ready for the challenge.

I’m not ready for Jordan Becker.

The head coach of our championship winning team is a Herculean force of nature—as severe as he is determined. His icy blue eyes and permanent scowl drive the women in this town mad, and his quiet power and undeniable command conjure respect from every man.

When I join his team, I expect the doubt and anticipate the fight from him. And I get them both.

I don’t expect to form a friendship.

And I never expect to fall for him.

My breath catches when those cool eyes fall to my lips. My body comes alive when his is near. And as those lines begin to blur, every warning bell sounds.

My job, my reputation are on the line.

And my ex is around every corner, waiting to remind me of his power.

It’s a man’s world, and if I want to survive, I can never fall in love with Jordan Becker.

Even if he falls in love with me first.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Old-Fashioned was a great conclusion to the Becker Brothers series! Kandi Steiner outdid herself with this one.

Jordan and Sydney’s story was a bit heavier than the rest of the books in this series, simply because of who they are. Jordan is the adopted oldest brother, and although he is every bit a Becker, he always felt a little on the outside, not knowing where he came from and being one of the few mixed-race guys in town. Sydney is also mixed race, but her issues and insecurities in this book stem from her abusive marriage to the town’s crooked police chief. Everything that Sydney does is well-thought out and done with her young daughter in mind. Especially when it comes to dating Jordan. Not only do they work together as the football coach and athletic trainer, but how will her ex react to the simple fact that she’s got a boyfriend? Will he strike out again in anger?

Their relationship is kept behind closed doors for the most part, but just as Sydney is finally ready to go public, the rug is pulled out from underneath them. And when Jordan needs her most, she bailes on him and the love they share.

Then there is the through-line that spanned all four books related to the death of dad John Becker. The mystery of whether or not he was murdered is wrapped up wonderfully, and the extra twist in the story as it relates to Jordan himself was something I never saw coming! From start to finish, this book was perfect!

About Kandi:

Kandi Steiner is a bestselling author and whiskey connoisseur living in Tampa, FL. Best known for writing “emotional rollercoaster” stories, she loves bringing flawed characters to life and writing about real, raw romance — in all its forms. No two Kandi Steiner books are the same, and if you’re a lover of angsty, emotional, and inspirational reads, she’s your gal.

An alumna of the University of Central Florida, Kandi graduated with a double major in Creative Writing and Advertising/PR with a minor in Women’s Studies. She started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a diehard hopeless romantic, and likes to highlight all the challenges of love as well as the triumphs.

When Kandi isn’t writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, talking with her extremely vocal cat, and spending time with her friends and family. She enjoys live music, traveling, anything heavy in carbs, beach days, movie marathons, craft beer and sweet wine — not necessarily in that order.

Lights! Camera! Clueless!

Liam Wright is Hollywood’s golden boy and at the top of the A-list.

But what he doesn’t know about life… Well, it could fill his very large Hollywood mansion. Thankfully, he’s got Shelby Carter in his world to keep him—and his house—camera-ready. Part confidante, part master chef, Shelby is his best friend and the only one who knows the real Liam.

Pampered, pretty, and often puzzled, Liam and his antics keep her on her toes, and there is never a dull moment living with him.

Until one day, Liam sees her as more…and he wants her to see him for the man he can be. The man he wants to be.

For her.

Is Liam up for the part?

Read an excerpt of Changing Roles on Book+Main

Excerpt:
I filled the sink beside her with warm water, planning on soaking her feet and then bandaging them.

“The dress,” she whispered.

I groaned. I didn’t care about the bloody dress. But I knew she did. “Take it off, then.”

“Right here?”

“Shelby, I’ve seen you in a bathing suit. I think I can handle your underwear.”

“Um—”

Chuckling, I shrugged out of my jacket and unbuttoned my shirt, yanking it off, leaving me in my undershirt. “You can put this on.” I wrapped my arm around her. “Come on, I’ll help you.” Gently, I set her on the floor, my eyes following her hand as she pulled down the hidden zipper on her dress. The deep-red gown pooled at her feet, and I swallowed when I saw what was hiding underneath the satin.

Her bathing suit, I could handle.
This, I wasn’t sure about.
Red. Lacy. Strapless.
A bustier.

My gaze drifted downward.

Tiny scraps of fabric tied at her hips in the same shade of red, leaving a tantalizing strip of soft flesh between the bustier and her underwear. A strip I wanted to lick.

And the underwear…tiny straps with bows that led to…

I shut my eyes as the room became far too small and far too hot. All the blood in my body was now pooled in one place.

My hard, aching cock.

Which was at that very moment trying to punch its way out of my pants to get to that red lace.

Bugger. Shit. Damn.

I gulped in air. Tried to think of anything else. Puppies. Worms. Everett in his underwear. Anything but the warm, red-lace-wearing woman in front of me.
Who was in pain and needed me to look after her.

Not lift her back onto the counter and fuck her until she screamed my name.

At least once.
Three or four times, preferably.

Her voice broke through my thoughts. “Liam?”

I blinked at her and handed her my shirt. I needed to rein myself in. “Put this on, Shelby, please.”

With downcast eyes, she did as I asked. I realized she thought I wanted her to cover up for a different reason than I needed her to cover up. I cupped her cheek. “Hey.”

Her hesitant gaze met mine. I covered her mouth with my lips, yanking her close. I pulled her hips against mine so she knew how she was affecting me. Her eyes flew open, meeting mine that were already staring at her—trying to convey a hard message.

I smiled against her lips. “Just for now, Beaker. Or your feet won’t be the only thing that’s sore.”

I set her back on the counter, keeping my eyes averted. She hissed in pain as I placed her feet in the warm water. I grimaced in understanding. “Sorry. Now, where can I find bandages?”

“My bathroom has a first aid kit. Left cupboard by the vanity.”

“Okay, stay here.”

“Where else am I gonna go?”

I hesitated. “I’m not gonna have to touch…other things to get to the kit thing, am I?”

She smirked. “Other things, Liam?”

I rubbed the back of my neck. “Um…your girl…things, Shelby?”

“No, you’re quite safe.” She winked. “Just make sure you open the left cupboard. Not the right.”

“Right.”

“No, left.”

“Bloody hell, don’t confuse me! I don’t have a lot of blood in that particular head right now!”

Her amusement followed me down the hall.
It was music to my ears.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Oh, I loved Beaker and Oscar! This book was so cute. To the outside world, Liam is a hotshot actor, a party boy with a bit of a who-cares attitude. But behind closed doors, he’s a complete goofball who loves nothing more than watching movies with his housekeeper/best friend, Shelby. Then one day, Liam starts to look at Shelby in a different light…. is he ready to change roles and be the man she deserves?

Told mostly through Liam’s POV, this book is a great peek inside the life of a celebrity, and how Liam struggles to live a normal life. He also struggles with being a celebrity and has major panic attacks when the papparazzi surrounds him. Shelby keeps him grounded and knows her place as his best friend, even though she has feelings for him as well. Is she willing to cross that line to become something more? Will she believe that she’s good enough for him?

When a pap-induced incident nearly kills Shelby, Liam steps up in a major way, putting an end to every one of his fears as well as hers. He can change roles. He can be the loving, adoring husband she deserves. And it was wonderful.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

All I Ask is full of everything I love about a good romance novel. It’s heartwarming, has just a touch of angst, and the perfect best friends romance. This book pulled me in from that heartbreaking prologue, and had me waiting to read chapter after chapter so I could see how Derek and Teagan’s story ended.

I love that Derek and Teagan were unlikely best friends back in high school. He was a nerd, she was a cheerleader, but they formed an unbreakable friendship when she tutored him. It wasn’t long before they started to develop feeling for each other, but since Teagan had a boyfriend, they each kind of ignored it. Eventually, being in love with each other and keeping silent is what led to the end of their friendship.

The story goes back and forth in dual POV between the past and the present, and we really see how Derek’s feelings for Tea impacted his marriage, and how torn Teagan was about whether or not she should tell Derek how she felt about him. In the end, Teagan loved him enough to let him go.

Thirteen years later, Derek and Tea are reunited when he reluctantly moves back to their small town. They are forced to face their feelings, and their teenage daughters (who are complete opposites) are instant enemies. CM wonderfully navigates this tentative reunion as they hash out their hurts and hidden feelings, come to terms with their new realities, and attempt to move forward as a couple. And when Teagan gets a once in a lifetime opportunity, it threatens to destroy everything that they’ve been working toward.

From start to finish, All I Ask was a page-turner that left me feeling happy. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Blurb:

Can you pinpoint a time in your life where you realized you are completely and utterly screwed?

I can. I got the dreaded phone call, the one every baseball player hopes and prays never comes.

I was traded. Yeah, that phone call.

Traded from my long time team of over ten years. And not just to any team, but my childhood rivals; the Chicago Rebels.

Completely and utterly screwed, right? Wrong. The trade was the least of my concerns.

I met a girl. Natalie. Man, she’s perfect.

I swore I would never get involved with anyone during the season. Too complicated. But can you believe I have zero restraint when it comes to this girl? I couldn’t get her out of my head and the more I talked to her, the more I realized I needed her in my life.

So what’s the problem? Why am I screwed? Because, Natalie, the girl I can’t stop crushing on, yeah . . . she’s married.

At least, that’s what I was told . . .

CORY

I’m fucked.

I’m sure you hear that all the time, so the term has lost its impact.

I ran out of sugar for my cookie batter . . . I’m fucked.

Forgot my phone in my car . . . I’m fucked.

Saw my neighbor’s old-man balls . . . I’m fucked for life.

I can guarantee you right now, this is nothing compared to old-man balls and cookies.

This is way worse.

This defines the term, I’m fucked.

What is it you ask?

It happened after one of the worst baseball seasons of my life. Traded halfway through the season to the team I’d hated my entire life, I was drowning in the constant media attention, persecuting me for the pass off for my multi-million-dollar contract.

“We want to win,” the Rebels said. “We can do that with Cory Potter wearing black and red.” And just like that, the team I’ve been playing for my entire professional career up and traded me to unload my hefty salary to develop new up-and-comers from the farm system.

The Rebels.

I’m a fucking Chicago Rebel. Words I never thought I’d say, especially growing up as a Chicago Bobcats fan, the rival team to the Rebels. Not just rival, but enemies. The teams themselves don’t get along, the fans hate each other, and Chicago is divided for a good portion of the year when the stadium lights are on.

But here I am, my name attached to the biggest trade in sports history.

A ballsy move.

An upset to Baltimore.

A baseball anomaly: All-American turned Rebel.

I’ve heard it all, I’ve seen it all, and no matter what’s splashed across the headlines, it doesn’t deviate from the fact that my long-time team decided to part ways with me midseason.

Mid-fucking-season.

After fourteen years, I packed up everything and moved back to Chicago.

But even that’s not why I’m fucked; it’s just the start of it.

The beginning of the end.

Dramatic? Maybe.

But if you were in my shoes, you’d be thinking the same thing.

After not even coming close to getting into the playoffs, the season ended, I was booed off the field because that’s how Rebels fans are—you don’t perform, they hate you—and I sequestered myself to my practically empty and cold apartment.

After a week of binge-eating deep-dish pizza and watching every prison documentary on Netflix, my sister finally dragged me out of my apartment, forcing me to attend a Bobbies playoff game with her so we could cheer on my brother-in-law. Her husband.

Seeing a Rebels player cheering on a Bobbies player plastered all over the news went over just as well as a grandma telling her grandson her favorite pastime is cock-tickling.

Not well.

But still . . . not the reason I’m fucked.

This is beyond worse than that.

During that game, I got the talk. Not the birds and bees, but the talk from a concerned sister about my lack of social life.

You really should get out more.

I know some single moms who are really nice.

Maybe a dating app might be fun. Girls would be ecstatic to match with the one and only Cory Potter.

I don’t want you dying alone.

That last one was a real kicker.

Dying alone. I’m fucking thirty-five and she has me with one toe in my grave.

The way I see it is, if you don’t meet your girl in college or high school, you’re sure as shit not going to meet her while playing professional baseball. Not when the schedule is obscenely busy and long, and not when you’re known for one thing in your city: making a shitload of money for playing a sport.

It’s almost impossible to find genuine relationships when you have this level of fame.

So I’ve resolved to waiting until after I retire to fall in love.

That doesn’t mean I’ve been celibate, I’m a man after all—a man with a shitload of adrenaline pumping through him on a daily basis. I’ve had my fair share of one-night stands with women, and a few on a solid repeat with zero expectations. Every woman I’ve bedded I’ve treated with respect, and I’ve been honest with them, because if anything, I’m a genuinely nice guy who doesn’t ever want to make someone feel bad.

Ask anyone who knows me, I’m the nice guy, the dependable guy, the leader with a heart.

I don’t screw women over, ever.

Are you thinking one of those one-night stands turned into an “accident”? Is that the reason I’m fucked? Got a girl I don’t know pregnant?

Nope, not that either.

But the conversation I had with Milly pushed me to a new way of thinking.

I don’t want you dying alone.

She made me fucking paranoid.

Was I really going to die alone?

Were my good years behind me and now I’m old meat on the market?

Should I be trying to find love in the midst of the craziness of my life?

Milly made me think, which then made me open up to the idea of finding someone, of looking at women differently, of allowing the relationship part of my brain to turn on.

So instead of ignoring every woman that has relationship potential I’d possibly look for, I turned off my blinders and started looking for them.

But I didn’t come close to meeting anyone that remotely fit the box of someone I’d consider going out on a date with. That was until I attended a certain charity event.

I saw her from across the room. Her smile was what caught my eye, then it was the way she laughed and held on to her brother’s hand, her brother who had cerebral palsy.

It was the way she’d lean into him, hold him, as if he was the most wonderful human she’d ever met.

The fact that she was absolutely breathtaking with piercing blue eyes had nothing to do with it.

It was her infectious laughter.

Her kind heart.

Her dedication to her family.

In a matter of seconds, I wanted to know her, wanted to find out her name, wanted to be in her orbit. Wanted to be a recipient of her warmth and affection.

I watched her from across the room, how she interacted with every person who came up to her, and when I was finally granted the opportunity to introduce myself, my breath caught in my throat when our hands connected. I felt my heart slam against the cage in my chest. And I knew, in that moment, with our hands mid shake, my life would never be the same.

Her name is Natalie.

Sister to my new teammate Jason Orson and his twin brother Joseph.

Director of Jason’s foundation, The Lineup.

And the reason why I’m utterly fucked.

Because while I started to grow attached to this magnetic and beautiful woman, when I told my sister about her, she informed me there was a ring on Natalie’s finger.

A ring that didn’t belong to me.

Hope plummeted in the matter of seconds as I felt the color from my besotted face drain into a puddle of remorse.

She was married.

She is fucking married.

See? Totally fucked.

I’ve been crushing so hard, because even a month later, I still think about her. I can still hear her laugh, see her smile, feel her hand in mine.

I want her.

Fucking bad.

They say time will heal all wounds, well for me, the more time passes, the more my wound is exposed and tormented.

Cory Potter is crushing on a married woman . . .

That is why I am completely and utterly . . . fucked.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Oh, Cory Potter! Where have you been? I don’t know how Meghan Quinn does it, but she consistently tops each previous book boyfriend with the next one!

So in The Trade we have Cory and Natalie, both of whom have appeared in previous books. Cory is the older brother and superstar baller of Milly from The Dugout, who has spent his entire pro career playing for Baltimore and then gets traded to (the horror!) The Rebels. While he’s back at home in Chicago with his family, he is now playing for the town’s least-favorite team. But Jason from The Lineup is his new teammate… and after meeting Jason’s sister at a charity event for The Lineup, Cory is absolutely smitten with Natalie.

Except she’s married. Well, technically, Natalie is getting divorced. And the string of bad blind dates she goes on is hysterical. By the time Natalie and Cory get to the pre-season vacation that the rest of the couples are headed to, they both are seriously crushing on one another, hard. But Cory still thinks Natalie is married, and she can’t imagine that someone like Cory F’ing Potter would even look her way twice. The entire St. Croix trip is a wonderful build-up of sexual frustration as the two are forced to share a room. There is so much push and pull between them, which is magnified by Cory’s belief that post-divorce Natalie is only looking for a fling while she assumes she is out of Cory’s league.

Things between them really explode once they get back home, and MQ does a great job of writing the change in their relationship as they realize it’s something they both want to explore. How kind and considerate Cory is despite his celebrity, and how understanding Natalie is of his profession since she’s the sister of a pro player herself. (And can we just mention how crazy Jason goes when his idol starts dating his sister? I love it!)

I really didn’t think that there would be a major upheaval to this romance, since they were both so sympatico. But the turn that this book takes is a little darker than some of the others in this series. The bad press Cory’s been getting as a result of his trade is only magnified when he starts dating Natalie, and his trying to protect her from it all is their ultimate demise. And also the reason for some medical issues he begins to have. I loved that part of this book! It was so different than the others in this series.

Of course, there is a wonderful HEA for these two, and in the end, being traded ends up being the best thing that happens to Cory. I really hope that this isn’t the end of this series, because I would love to see what woman brings Maddox to his knees!

It had been three days since I last saw Bryce in person. He’d gone out of town for a case he was working on, which meant I went from having him constantly to not at all, and although he’d gotten back earlier this morning, I had no real reason to call and ask him to come by my place later tonight. No matter how badly I wanted him with me.

Now I was running on fumes. Two nights he’d slept by my side, and already, I’d become addicted to having his big, strong body wrapped around mine.

These past few nights I hadn’t been able to sleep to save my life. I spent each of them tossing and turning, feeling like something was missing. Something in the form of a six-foot-four man with more than two hundred pounds of pure muscle packed beneath his skin.

After how he broke my heart, he was the last man on earth I should crave. But, he made me feel . . . safe. For the first time in my life, when I’d needed someone I hadn’t been alone. Someone had taken care of me. Bryce had taken care of me, and he’d done it better than I could have imagined. Gentle and kind, sweet and loving. Anticipating my every need.

Like a husband.

My protective wall was in shambles, full of holes, and barely standing. I missed him like crazy. The only silver lining was that he’d stayed in contact while he was gone.

Like an addict, I’d kept my phone in hand, reading and rereading the string of texts between us every few minutes over the past three days. And it had to be said, Bryce Dixon was just as potent over text as he was in person. The man was good with words.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Ah! Another great Hope Valley couple from Jessica Prince! The Second Time Around pretty much starts with the scene from Out Of The Dark where playful, flirty Bryce freaks out when he sees a woman walk past the window of Alpha Omega. Turns out, it was Tessa, the one that got away.

It’s been 10 years since Bryce ghosted her, and Tessa never imagines that she’s run into her ex-husband in the tiny town where she’s taken a new job as the director of a home for foster kids. Realizing that he’s been handed a second chance to make things right with the woman he’s never gotten over, Bryce pulls out all the stops to prove he’s worth it.

I really love how JP shows the connection between these two, even though they only spent a week together in Vegas before he deployed. I felt it, and I felt Tessa’s conflicting feelings over whether to believe her broken heart or trust her gut and give Bryce another chance. There was a good reason why he never came back to her after he got out. Like Xander, he has some dark demons he was battling as a result of his time in the military.

But true love conquers all in Hope Valley, and when Tessa agrees to give Bryce a second chance, he gives her everything he ever promised to the girl who herself grew up in the foster system: a family, a home and unconditional love.

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.

Nina Astor gave me one red-hot night, then disappeared like a ghost.

Three months later, fate drops her in my lap.

The only problem?

She’s beyond off-limits, and we’re worlds apart.

I’m a city prosecutor with a bit of a dark side.

She’s the gilded daughter of a dynasty…and property of the scum of the earth.

And the man who owns her is the subject of my next investigation.

Nina thinks I’m on the right side of the law, but she’s forgotten one thing:

When it comes to her, I’m not a good man.

To claim her as my own, I might sell my soul to the devil himself.

True be told…

When it comes to this woman, maybe I already have.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Nicole French is a USA Today bestselling author of contemporary romance. She’s also a hopeless romantic, Springsteen fanatic, and total bookworm. When not writing, she is hanging out with her family, playing soccer with the rest of the thirty-plus crowd in Seattle, or going on dates with her husband. In her spare time, she likes to go running or practice the piano, but never seems to do either one of these things as much as she should.

“Rich Boy was witty, exciting and had the most intense slow burn romance I’ve read in a long time. ”
—Audrey Carlan, #1 New York Times bestselling author

The Rich Boy, an all-new “do not miss” swoon-worthy standalone with off-the-charts chemistry from New York Times bestselling author Kylie Scott, is available now!

I’m the type of girl who’s given up on fairy tales. So when Beck – the hot new busboy at work – starts flirting with me, I know better than to get my hopes up. Happily ever afters aren’t for the average. I learned that the hard way.

But how can I be expected to resist a man who can quote Austen, loves making me laugh, and seems to be everything hot and good in this world?

Only there’s so much more to him than that.

Billionaire playboy? Check.
Troubled soul? Check.
The owner of my heart, the man I’ve moved halfway across the country to be with, who’s laying the world at my feet in order to convince me to never leave? Check. Check. Check.

But nobody does complicated like the one percent.

This is not your everyday rags-to-riches, knight-in-shining armor whisking the poor girl off her feet kind of story. No, this is much messier.

Excerpt

“You haven’t told me your story,” he says once we’re seated in a booth and have ordered.

“I finished my degree and realized it was basically good for nothing and there were next to no jobs available anyway. Or at least nothing that appealed. Teachers and librarians are fighting for every scrap of funding they can get while newspapers are folding. The publishing industry is going through serious cutbacks. Majoring in English Lit may have been a mistake.” I shrug. Truth is, I got stuck for various reasons. But this explanation is easier to swallow. “Figured if I was going to wind up serving then I’d like to do it somewhere I can walk along the beach now and then, without getting stuck in traffic for hours.”

He nods. “Makes sense.”

“I thought so. I’ll figure out what I want to do with my life eventually.”

“No rush. Good that you can take the time and space to figure things out for yourself without anyone pressuring you.”

“Just the student loans hanging over my head,” I say.

His answering smile is brief and small. “Grow up around here?”

“Close enough, San Bernardino,” I say. “What about you?”

“No, I’m half a country away from home and intend to keep it that way. Though maybe half a country away is still too close. I hear Iceland’s nice this time of year.”

I raise my brows in question.

“Family.” He shrugs. “What can you do?”

The waitress delivers our food, filling up the table with Beck’s order of half of the breakfast menu. Without hesitation, he proceeds to devour it all. If I ate that much, my ass wouldn’t fit in the seat.

“Want some?” He offers me a forkful of pancake, dripping with syrup. “It’s good.”

“I’m fine with my burger. Thanks.” And I’m curious as heck about his family, but pressing him further wouldn’t be polite. Dammit.

“So what are my future wife’s favorite hobbies and or interests?”

“Hmm.” I stick a fry in my mouth and chew, thinking it over. “Reading, films, music…the usual. You?”

“Lots of things.”

“Such as?”

“I don’t know…hiking, rock climbing. Stuff like that.”

“So basically I like to sit still and you’re all about being busy and athletic. We have nothing in common.”

“No. Wait. I can change,” he jokes. “Give me another chance.”

“You shouldn’t have to change.” I swirl another fry in some ketchup. “I’m sure you’re perfectly fine just as you are.”

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

I loved this reluctant Cinderella story! And he quotes Austen!

When waitress Alice meets barback Beck, she has no idea who he actually is. Even when she agrees to follow him to Colorado after his dad dies, she still doesn’t know. All she knows is that there’s not much holding her to her current life, and the connection she feels with Beck is something she wants to follow.

Is she crazy for following a guy she just met? Sure. But it’s a sweet romance and a super slow burn between them. Alice gets to know Beck under an intense situation, and the scrutiny of his crazy, wealthy family. This is a great look into how the one percent live from the perspective of someone who doesn’t want any of it.

I really liked Alice and how strong she was. She really stands up for herself and her relationship with Beck. They have a lot stacked against them, but together they overcome it all. There are some lies on his part, it I get why he deceived her. And it shakes their trust enough for them to really work on their relationship and find their way back to each other.

Blurb:
National Award-Winning Author KC Decker, brings readers a
Sexy New, Doctor-Patient Romance.

MERCY

Ironically, my name is Mercy, though my parents showed me none. If you buy the nonsense they’re selling, you’d think my very birth foretold of an evil prophesy and unleashed a wicked scourge across the land.

While that telling is all very dramatic and compelling, it’s not the whole story. The truth is, I was almost ten years old before the religious cult began to insist I had been kissed by the devil.

Nowadays, how people perceive me is clouded by a different set of convictions and a whole new doctrine. It’s a different batch of Kool-Aid, but I still have no choice about whether to swallow it or not. Not while I’m here and labeled a Ward of the State.

I’ve worn all types of labels over the years—non-believer, pariah, deranged, orphan…it’s all in my file if you care to understand me better. But the label that seems to have implanted the deepest and garnered the most attention is the one I wear like a Scarlet Letter. It precedes me when I enter a room and is whispered about like a schoolyard crush.

Paranoid Schizophrenic.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this doctor/patient romance considering Mercy is a paranoid schizophrenic. Would Sutton be taking advantage of her illness and age difference? Would it be weird to read? Well, it wasn’t.

This story isn’t a lighthearted read. Mercy has been through some seriously messed-up things, and Sutton helps heal her heart, mind and soul through their therapy. But on the flip side of that, the breakthrough left so many unanswered questions about the other people in Mercy’s life. What happened to her parents? Were they sick and twisted, or were they protecting her in some strange way by abandoning her to the care of the system for so long of her life? I wish there was some resolution there.

KC Decker is a new to me author, and I was quite impressed with how she handled the taboo nature of this subject. There was nothing predictable about this book, and it’s full of emotions and gut-wrenching truths and revelations.

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

About the Author:
KC Decker’s debut novel, 1462 South Broadway was the First Place Winner of the 2017 National Excellence in Romance Fiction Award.

She is also the author of the runaway hits, 720 Linden Street, 1700 Grant Street and 945 Cedar Avenue, as well as the sexy standalones, Little Dove, Of Ash and Angels, and her newest release GRADATION.

KC is a voracious reader, compulsive daydreamer and romantic escapist. After years of over thinking and narcissistic scrutiny of everything she has ever written; including term papers and shopping lists, she decided to tackle a book of her very own. Her actions culminated in a very sincere and magnanimous respect for all published writers.
