A Shadow in the Light by Keary Taylor

Title: A Shadow in Light (Parallel Verse Guardians, #1)
Author: Keary Taylor
Genre: Adult, Paranormal, Romance
Release Date: 20 April 2021

Summary:

“You went and fell in love with an ultralight? That’s like a spider falling in love with a butterfly. They’re both arachnids, but the entire universe knows they don’t belong together.”

I needed an out. I needed to be someone who wasn’t trapped in Las Vegas. I went to that club looking for nothing and everything, and there he was. Jaxon’s hands on my hips were just what I was looking for, and for just one night, it was easy to be someone I wasn’t.

Then our signals went haywire. We’ve been looking for the gatekeeper for a long, long time so we can go home, and a new possibility just came up. It was my job to bring them in.

Only it was him. Jaxon Gray. Turns out, he comes from one of the most dangerous crime families in Sin City. But I’m not the only one after him. There are others who want him just as bad, and they’ll kill me to get to him.

Now we’re on the run together. He should be scared. He’s seen me shift, and it’s not sparkly or pretty. But he doesn’t cower when he sees the other side of me—my shadows, my claws, my fangs. With a curious gleam in his eyes, he asks to know more.

This is dangerous. He’s about to manifest. And as soon as he does, his biggest impulse will be to kill me. But it’s too late for my heart, I can’t walk away. So, the million-dollar question is: will what’s happened between us be enough for him to overcome his instincts?

Author: Goldy Moldavsky

Fear tests. They can be born from movies, but the Mary Shelley Club brings them to life.

Rachel Chavez is recovering from a home invasion and neglecting her PTSD. Her mother has transferred them both from their former world in the burbs to a new one in NYC (which I’m unsure how she affords on a teacher’s salary). This life is a delicate new existence where Rachel tries to gently poke at her past when she’s comfortable doing so and avoid doing so whenever it’s possible. Until she sees something unusual happen at a party.

“I, too, crave chaos.”

Author: A.M. Hargrove
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: 15 April 2021

Summary:

What could be more humiliating than your father telling an almost perfect stranger that you’re single?

I’ll tell you what—proposing MARRIAGE to him!

That’s exactly what my father did.

He basically tried to barter me off like a horse.

Admittedly, said single dude was a veritable smoke show.

Besides being exceptionally panty-melting, he was also a complete jackass.

Until the douche of my baby daddy showed up—and not for a friendly visit—insisting on gaining custody of our daughter.

Said panty-melting jackass rode in on his white stallion, rescuing me from the clutches of the aforementioned douche .

I never imagined Panty-Melter would turn out to be my knight in shining armor.

Maybe Dad’s idea wasn’t so crazy after all.

And this was how I found myself considering that insane proposal.

From USA Today bestselling author, AM Hargrove comes For The Love of Easton, the sequel to the Amazon top selling single dad romance, For The Love of English.

Title: Bachelor Beast (Interstellar Brides Program: The Beasts #1)
Author: Grace Goodwin
Genre: Adult, Romance, Science Fiction
Release Date: 14 May 2020

Summary:

Warlord Wulf thought nothing could be worse than being tortured and contaminated by the Hive. That was before he’s ordered to transport to Earth and represent The Colony in an unfamiliar horror… a human reality show. The Bachelor Beast is the hottest new program on Earth, but being set up with two dozen clingy females is not his idea of a good time. When his Beast refuses to show the slightest interest in any of the show’s potential mates, he knows he must choose one or die due to his raging mating fever.

His Beast prefers execution to claiming anyone but his true mate. Wulf is resigned to his fate, a one-way trip to Atlan, a prison cell and execution. It is the only honorable thing left to do.

Until one glance, one sweet, feminine scent lingering in the air and his beast rages for a female who is not supposed to be his.

But try telling that to his Beast when his entire body transforms on live television and one simple word thunders from his lips…MINE.

Book Review: Badly Behaved by Meagan Brandy

Badly Behaved by Meagan Brandy

ByMs Ali Cat: Ali Crean | On April 09,21 | 0 Comment

Title: Badly Behaved
Author: Meagan Brandy
Genre: New Adult Romance
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lights Out! Let’s Party.

It’s weird because the cosmos always hand me books one after another or one close to another with a similar problem amongst the characters or same name, something in common. I mention it because the dynamic which produces the Blackout Trio is one that I had just read about in another book of another genre–I can’t tell you as it spoils both books, but the universe is weird. That’s all I can say.

When you are as jaded and bored as Jameson Filano, you need a little something to light up your life; oddly enough, for her, it’s a party where the lights go out. Of course, it’s not just power failure but also the three powerhouse personalities in the room that fascinate her until her kidnapping and subsequent trip to the beach, which ends in more inquisitiveness. But life goes on in her world, and no one even notices the time that she’s gone. Her world tilted a little, and no one else saw. C’est la vie.

Book Review: I Pucking Love You by Pippa Grant

ByMs Ali Cat: Ali Crean | On April 08,21 | 0 Comment

Title: I Pucking Love You (Copper Valley Thrusters #5)
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book had a terribly slow start, and so many times, I want to throw it down and quit. But I’m glad I didn’t because right around the time someone ahem passes out at the funeral, it all picks up.

Pippa Grant has a style that is simply all hers wonderful and blessed chaos. In typical Pippa fashion, her heroine, Muffy Periwinkle, is a hot mess. It’s not just that she is a med school drop-out or runs a flagging matchmaking business. You can’t point at her figure or her insecurities and say that those are what has her at wit’s end. It’s not that she has a death-seeking feline; it’s all of it together. She needs some tender loving care.

Tyler Jaeger to the rescue.

Summary:

Don’t fall for your roommate…especially when it’s only temporary.

Big deal.

It was all just a momentary lapse in judgment…just like the kiss we shared.

He’s my temporary roommate while I wait for my new apartment to be ready. That’s it.

He’s doesn’t do relationships, and he doesn’t do attachments.

So what if I have a crush on him? We’ll only be there for two months.

Book Review: Off Limits by L.A. Cotton

Off Limits by LA Cotton

ByMs Ali Cat: Ali Crean | On April 06,21 | 0 Comment

Title: Off Limits (Rixon High #1)
Author: L.A. Cotton
Genre: YA Sports Romance
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

*Big sigh*

There is so much here to unpack. L.A. Cotton has covered some important topics in this book.

Jason Ford’s nightmare has come true. Lewis Thatcher’s spawn has come to Rixon High, and he wants to be Jase’s next QB1. Can Coach Ford get his head straight to let Kaiden have a chance, or will bad blood spoil Kaiden’s only opportunity to get out of Rixon?

But the dynamic between Jason and Kaiden isn’t the only thing going on here. L.A. Cotton also introduces a complicated heroine in Lily Ford. A delicate and traumatized girl on the edge of womanhood or a nervous breakdown–whichever comes first. Lily has friends and family to support her, but she is wounded and healing but not thriving, and more importantly, not living until Kaiden Thatcher sets her aflame.
