THE C AGREEMENT by R.L. Kenderson

RELEASES: October 26th

I was the girl next door…with a few extra pounds. My job was demanding and kept me on my toes, but when I was deep in a case, it left me little time for relationships. And because of that, I had some complaints in the bedroom.

What I wanted was for someone to teach me to be a better lover. I needed someone I trusted with my body without the fear of falling in love and someone who wasn’t looking for anything more than sex. And I needed a man who knew how to use his body.

That was where Cade Nichols came in. He was my older brother’s best friend and anti-commitment. And my brother just challenged him to sleep with only one woman for two months. So, I offered to help Cade win that bet. As long as he helped me learn my way around a cock.

What I didn’t bet on was life not going as planned.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

The C Agreement is the first book I’ve read by this writing duo, and I enjoyed it — even though I felt like the resolution to Rayne and Cade’s dating-bet relationship was rushed.

A bitter breakup has wounded her pride and Rayne is feeling down on herself. Her brother, Beau, and his best friend, Cade, make a bet that playboy Cade can’t stay with one woman for a whole month. If he does, then Beau will open up the restaurant with Cade that they’ve always dreamed about. Since Rayne wants to spice up her repertoire in the bedroom, she suggests that Cade spend the month with her.

I loved Rayne’s confidence. She was a smart, strong, and feisty heroine. Plus-sized as well, and she owned it. She talks about times in her past when she’d felt passed over and friend-zoned because of her size, but Cade makes her feel beautiful and sexy. He’s always thought so, but she was off-limits to him as his best friend’s little sister. Plus, Cade isn’t the relationship type and didn’t want to cross any lines in his friendship with Rayne. But when presented with the opportunity to have her whenever he wants her for a whole month, Cade jumps at the chance.

This book is full of spice and heat, and dirty talk. Cade is rather possessive and it surprises Rayne when she discovers that she likes that side of him. Of course, they both catch feelings before the month is up. And this is where I had an issue with the storyline: Rayne recognizes that she’s fallen in love with Cade, while he’s confused by his feelings of wanting to be around her whenever he can. I feel like I missed a whole section where Cade went from that to realizing that he loved her. I like the show, not the tell, and it just felt like I was robbed of seeing Cade realize he’d fallen in love despite his best efforts.

Still, I enjoyed this book very much. It’s a relatively quick read, and an enjoyable low-angst romance.

Meet R.L. Kenderson!

R.L. Kenderson is two best friends writing under one name.

Renae has always loved reading, and in third grade, she wrote her first poem where she learned she might have a knack for this writing thing. Lara remembers sneaking her grandmother’s Harlequin novels when she was probably too young to be reading them, and since then, she knew she wanted to write her own.

When they met in college, they bonded over their love of reading and the TV show Charmed. What really spiced up their friendship was when Lara introduced Renae to romance novels. When they discovered their first vampire romance, they knew there would always be a special place in their hearts for paranormal romance. After being unable to find certain storylines and characteristics they wanted to read about in the hundreds of books they consumed, they decided to write their own.

One lives in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and the other in the Kansas City area where they both work in the medical field during the day and they’re a sexy author by night. They communicate through phone, email, and whole lot of messaging.

Damaged. Broken. Destroyed. I’ve heard it all. A single moment of trusting the wrong person shattered my life into pieces, and my family has never looked at me the same. It’s impossible to convince them that I’m anything more than the broken girl they rescued all those years ago.

Until I meet him.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

I have been waiting for Shiloh’s story ever since the T&T series began. I could not wait to see how Catherine Cowles worked her magic on the girl who was at the center of the kidnapping that affected the family so incredibly deeply. And Shiloh just blossomed through her relationship with Ramsey in the most beautiful way!

Shiloh’s soul just called out to Ramsey’s. For years before they even became friends. There was something rare that they shared as victims of horrible crimes, and that bonded them in a way that she never experienced with anyone else.

Shiloh had been living in a cage, both of her own making and the sheltered life her parents enforced on her after the kidnapping. She truly came into her own as she worked with the horses on Ramsey’s farm. And for the first time in her life, she got to experience romance and companionship.

In addition to the lovely romance between these two broken souls., this story is very much Shiloh’s coming-of-age tale, because she really is stunted in so many ways as a result of her past.

As with every other CC book, there is an element of danger in this book and a shocking revelation. And while that event cemented Shiloh and Ramsey’s relationship, it also set his trust in her family, specifically her sheriff brother, Hayes. Giving him the family that he never had.

Narrators Joe Arden and Erin Mallon were PHENOMENAL in bringing this story to life!

This book was absolutely lovely, and a perfect end to this series. There are some cameo appearances by heroes from previous CC books, and also serves to set up the next series.

MOUNTAIN BEAUTY by Lola Finn

RELEASES: October 20th

I’m the one they call the Beast. Dangerous. Alpha. Ruthless.

This is my mountain…at least it’s supposed to be.

Only when my father dies, I find out he played a little game with my inheritance. Now I have thirty days to find a wife or I’ll lose everything.

That’s where she comes in. Honor Channing. Dark hair, emerald eyes, and the poutiest, sassiest mouth.

She’s meant for a fairytale, not a cold, calculating, ruthless man like me. But when her family is desperate, I make them a deal.

I’ll buy their businesses. Keep them afloat. All I want in return is her.

Because the moment I stepped foot back into Thorne Ridge, this Beauty was mine.

She just doesn’t know it yet.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Mountain Beauty is a super steamy reimagining of Beauty & The Beast. Short enough to binge read, and sexy enough to keep your attention as Jett and Honor navigate an engagement of convenience, family drama, and a growing attraction between them.

Beauty & The Beast is my favorite Disney princess movie, and I loved all the correlations in this book. Honor has to marry Jett to save her destitute family. Her one brother is the Gaston-type villain of this story… Jett builds her a library… she finds the sweet soul behind the man everyone calls The Beast… This story had lots of angry heat and a hero with a really dirty mouth!

Blurb:

From USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Yarros comes a small town, single parent romance.

Nine years ago, Weston Madigan saved me. I came to Colorado penniless, heartbroken, and pregnant, searching for a fresh start. Weston gave me a job at his family’s resort, then left the next day and never returned, not even to visit.

Then I stumble in on Weston cooking breakfast shirtless—gloriously, inappropriately shirtless—in the shared kitchen of my duplex in employee housing. Given the shock on both our faces, he wasn’t expecting a roommate either, let alone two.

The growly pilot is only home to start his family’s new heli-skiing operation. I can handle being his temporary roommate, right? Chemistry and attraction aren’t impossible to ignore when you agree on ground rules. Besides, even with those gorgeous, brooding brown eyes, the guy is a walking thundercloud…until my daughter, Sutton, makes him laugh and he smiles at me. Then everything changes. Cue inconvenient heart flip.

This is only temporary.

I can’t fall for Weston.

Will. Not. Fall. For. Weston.

But rules go out the window when you’re a little too close.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

This story hit all the right notes for a forced proximity/roommates romance. Callie and Weston tried to stick to the rules they set forth as roommates and her being a single mom, but it wasn’t long before they began breaking every one of them.

Weston is such a great grumpy hero! Especially since being around Callie and her daughter being him so much happiness. I adored the friendship that he and Sutton developed all on their own, and how she knew they were an item when he and Callie thought they were being so slick!

Weston has a lot of family baggage, and that all comes into play nicely. Callie has issues with her parents as well, and i loved that she didn’t judge Weston for not forgiving his dad or brother, but just silently supported him in how he felt he needed to handle things.

Alas, this couple eventually split up because Weston doesn’t think he’s capable of love, when the truth is he was everything Callie and Sutton needed. And once he realizes how miserable he is without his girls… we’ll, a big grand gesture or two solves that problem!

I only read this book in the Madigan Mountain series, and it is a standalone. But I am really curious about Reed and Crew so I will definitely check out the other two books!

About RUNAWAY GROOMSMAN:

Hollywood screenwriter Sawyer Walsh knows a good love story when he sees it. But when it comes to real life romance, he’s a mess. That’s how he finds himself standing at the altar…as his ex-girlfriend ties the knot with his very famous best friend. The pressure, the resentment, the media coverage—it’s all too much—and before he knows exactly what he’s doing, he’s making a run for it, leaving a shocked congregation and flashing cameras in his wake.

Needing to lie low amid the media fallout, Sawyer lands in the charming town of Canoodle, California, where he crosses paths with Fallon Long, who runs the Canoodle Cove Cabins, a family-owned business and Sawyer’s new short-term residence. Overwhelmed with renovations and her long list of responsibilities, Fallon is struggling to make ends meet while attempting to bring the cabins back to their original glory. So when Sawyer arrives, she is grateful for the income, but immediately writes him off as just another vapid Hollywood hack, until he begins to prove her wrong at every turn.

As Fallon comes closer to saving the family business, an undeniable bond forms between her and the handsome screenwriter. But the pressures of her family obligations and Sawyer’s notoriety might prove to be too much for anyone to handle. Could Canoodle be the setting for a new romance—or is true love just a Hollywood cliché?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Slow-burn perfection! Runaway Groomsman is full of laughs and lots of heart, the yummy kind of story that you can just envision watching on “Lifemark” or “Movieflix.” (IYKYK!!)

Sawyer is a screenwriter who makes his living writing feel-good romcoms, but his life is more like a Greek tragedy lately. And when his ex-girlfriend (an actress) marries his ex-best friend (an actor), the dude has a meltdown of epic proportions. During the ceremony. At the altar. As his double-finger kiss-off becomes a viral gif, Sawyer ends up hiding out in the quirky mountain town of Canoodle to bury his head in the sand as he’s become a bit of a laughingstock back in Hollywood.

One of the first people Sawyer meets in Canoodle is Fallon — a former nurse with whom he had one horrible blind date a year ago. At the time, Sawyer was drowning in sadness and anger because his girlfriend cheated on him with his best friend, but all Fallon remembers from that date was what a jerk the guy was. And to make matters worse, Sawyer has zero recollection of who Fallon is when they first cross paths. Still, she takes pity on the drunk fool and lets him stay in one of the cabins at her grandfather’s crumbling resort.

But Fallon has a lot more to worry about than a guy she had one date with not remembering her. She’s the caretaker for her grandfather, Sully, who has Alzheimer’s, and she’s desperately trying to renovate the resort so she can continue her grandparents’ legacy. While Sawyer is hiding out and trying to come up with a new movie concept to save his career, he begins spending lots of time with Sully and unbeknownst to Fallon, begins doing renovations at the resort under her grandfather’s watchful eye. And the more time he spends “not being friends” with Fallon, the more Sawyer realizes he blew his chance with a fabulous girl… because she now has a boyfriend, Peter.

As Fallon and Sawyer become more than “not friends,” it’s clear that there is so much electricity between them. Fallon is broken up with Peter before anything happens between her and Sawyer, but you have to read through more than half of the book to get there! And because Sawyer doesn’t want to ruin the second chance he’s been given, he becomes the swooniest of book boyfriends as he courts Fallon. Along the way, Sawyer finds his muse again and discovers that the best thing that ever could have happened to him was running away from Hollywood.

There are so many wonderful Easter eggs sprinkled throughout this book that I loved as a long-time reader of Meghan Quinn’s. I loved all of the side characters, especially Fallon’s sarcastic BFF, Jazlyn. I know there is a story coming for Jaz and Sawyer’s brother, and I can’t wait to see how their romance unfolds! This book is a Montlake release and definitely does not have the spice level that MQ’s indie books like Royally Not Ready has, but it is a super sweet and heartfelt story about love, inner peace, acceptance, and family.

I received a complimentary copy from the publisher via NetGalley and voluntarily left a review.

“I need you to marry me.”

Jane Fox

My boss cannot be serious. The ridiculously handsome man I hate-to-crush on has just proposed I pretend to be his wife for a funeral. A funeral! Only, when he dangles a much-coveted position in exchange for my time, I can’t refuse. Who am I kidding, though? I seem to have a habit of not saying no to Mr. Wright.

Machlan Wright

Things spiral out of control the second we reach my small town. A place I swore I’d never return has suddenly become my inheritance. As in, I’ve inherited an entire town! Only, there’s one condition: my hot, top executive pretending to be my wife must marry me for real. What could possibly go wrong? <insert sarcasm>

+++

Join Jane and Mach as they road trip to a lovely mountain town where memories haunt and relationships build. And it takes (the restoration of) a village for this marriage of convenience to question the past and change the future.

L.B. Dunbar brings you a second standalone in Road Trips & Romance. 

**Note, the Fox sisters are siblings of Garrett Fox from Wine&Dine, an original #sexysilverfox. 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

I love LB Dunbar’s stories and her more mature characters. Merging Wright is book #2 in the Roadtrips & Romance series, and features Mae’s sister, Jane, as the heroine and her boss Machlan.

Jane thinks Mach is out of his mind when he asks her to go to his hometown with him for a funeral with him and pretend to be his wife. He dangles the promotion she’s been hoping for as a carrot, and Jane reluctantly says yes. Never mind the fact that Jane’s had feelings for Mach for quite some time and thinks that she must really be the crazy one for going through with this farce.

But Jane and Mach’s fake relationship soon turns into so much more in this heartfelt story. There are a lot of big emotions in this book, as both characters have muddy pasts that they need to work through in order to find their path together. Especially Mach, because going back to the town he swore he’d never step foot in again takes a toll on him emotionally. But as he repairs burned bridges from his past, he really becomes a different person. And as he begins to see himself in a different light as well, this serial dater realizes that the perfect mate for him has been on the other side of the office all along.

Did Not Finish by Nicola Marsh is now live! 

Stranded…with my nemesis.

AXEL: It’s bad enough an unseasonal blizzard means I’m stuck with my PA’s annoying cat, but to make matters worse, Mia Samson and her poison pen are in my house too. The renowned reviewer has tanked enough books with her dreaded DNF and I need to teach her a lesson.
But my enemy is not what I expect and if I’m not careful, I’m in danger of revealing my secret to the one person who can use it against me.

MIA: I know people in publishing call me the career-wrecker behind my back. What they don’t know is, I’m writing a novel, and when I’m lucky enough to win a week-long retreat with bestselling Axel Low in quaint Sugar Plain, Nebraska, I’m thrilled.

Until I discover being snowed in with the reclusive grump is merely the first trope my life has turned into, and soon I’m sorely tempted to enact enemies to lovers…
