REVIEW: Southern Heat by Natasha Madison

Release Date: June 1

Willow
After being left for dead, I was given a fresh start by my knight in shining armor. 
My protector.
I never had a family before they took me in. 
But I don’t know how to stay or trust.
I always had a bag packed and ready just in case I needed to escape again. 
Like they say, old habits die hard.
Being in the shadows is lonely, but lonely is safe. 

Quinn
I was the quiet one, the one who stood in the back and watched things unfold. The cowboy who only cared about his horses instead of the glory. 
Until I found her fighting for her life. Something inside me shifted, and I couldn’t stop it. 
I couldn’t stop protecting her. 
I fell in love with her with one look because she was my soul mate. 
Even though I knew I couldn't make her stay.

5 stars!
Southern Heat is book #6 in Natasha Madison’s Southern Series. Willow and Quinn’s story is incredible. Willow has endured abuse like no other woman should ever have to face. She is left struggling and fighting for her life. When Quinn rescues her he does not leave her side for one moment. He has no idea who she is but he is drawn to her and deep down feels it’s his duty to protect her. Willow has never in her life felt protected and it is immediately skeptical of Quinn’s motives but soon realizes he has no other motive except to love her and keep her safe. My heart was in my throat for Willow and all that she suffered at the hands of her abuser. It was beautiful seeing her open up and become her own woman also while developing a deep, and emotional connection with Quinn. Quinn is the son of Olivia and Casey from Southern Comfort, he has grown up loved and supported and cannot fathom the life that Willow has had to live. He runs an equine therapy ranch and the moments where Willow connects with her horse were so beautiful and really got me in the feels. These two do not have an easy road to their HEA but every obstacle is worth it in the end. The end was breathtaking and perfect for them. I cannot say enough good things about this series and this was a fantastic addition.

When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...

Georgia
I’m surrounded by love, yet have no one to call my own.
But then Chase, my new roommate, is suddenly there.
He could be the perfect guy for me, if he wasn’t nursing a broken heart.
The more time I waste looking for love, the more I realize that what I want has been right in front of me all along.
Falling for Chase is the easiest thing I’ve ever done, but fighting for him is the hardest.
Because his past isn’t finished with him— not even close.

Chase
Love finds you when you least expect it.
I was only looking for a place to crash after having my heart ripped out, instead I found someone who turned my world upside down.
A girl like Georgia was looking for happily ever after, and so far my life had been anything but a fairytale.
I can walk into a burning building without thinking twice, but the spark I feel with her scares the hell out of me.
I can’t keep watching her look for someone else—not when I’m falling for her.
Just when everything starts to fall into place, I'm reminded just how messy and imperfect life can be.
When the smoke clears, it’s Georgia by my side. Life might not be perfect— but our love could be.

*My Kind of Perfect is the third and final interconnected stand-alone novel in the Finding Love series.*


5 stars!

My Kind of Perfect was the absolute PERFECT conclusion to Nikki Ash’s Finding Love Series. After finishing My Kind of Beautiful I was so eager for Georgia and Chase’s story and Nikki Ash blew me away with such an incredible story. From the first to last page I was CONSUMED and I didn’t want it to end. It is a sexy, emotional, beautiful story. Georgia and Chase are roommates and friends. Georgia is a bit of a recluse. She prefers to be at home and stay within her bubble. She works from home and enjoys the comforts of her home instead of going out and struggling with her social anxieties.  Chase sees this and wants nothing more than to be the person that will push her out of comfort zone and be the one there for her while she finds herself. Chase is a firefighter and best friends with Alec, who is Georgia’s sisters husband. He ends up on her couch after his marriage breaking down. Initially Chase is all about his playboy ways. He wants nothing to do with commitment after being emotionally and physically drained by ex-wife and her drug abuse and cheating ways. That is until Georgia and their undeniable attraction and chemistry. There were so many beautiful layers to uncover in this story. I loved how mature and vocal they were with each other as soon as they decided to give into their feelings and their desire for one another. I loved their journey. The flirty, sexy banter, laughter and steam mixed with emotional, raw and heartfelt moments really made the connection between Georgia and Chase so strong and beautiful. I have ADORED this series from the start and need more of this family. I cannot wait to go back and read the Fighting and Fighting Love Series now that I have fallen so hard for Nikki Ash’s writing.

REVIEW: Blame it on the Tequila by Fiona Cole

The world loves him and his music, but I loved him first.

Blame it on the Tequila by Fiona Cole is now live!

It started on a dance floor after too much tequila and ended with looking into the handsome face I never thought I'd see again. In-person, at least.

I saw his face all the time on magazine covers.

To the world, he's Parker Callahan- famous rockstar.

To me, he was the boy I loved, the stepbrother who left me behind to follow his dreams.

After our tequila-fueled encounter, he wants me back but that's not a road I'm ready to walk down again. He broke my heart once, and even five years later, I'm not sure I could handle another blow.

When a once-in-a-lifetime offer comes my way, even my broken heart isn't enough for me to be able to turn it down. I agree to join the band's tour and help Parker write his next album--but this time I'm not falling in love.

This time I'll walk away.

If there is one thing life has taught me, it's that love never goes to plan--especially when Parker is involved.

4 stars!

Since the end of Blame it on the Champagne I fell in love with Nova, and have been dying for her and Parker’s story and ohh, did Fiona Cole exceed all my expectations with this story! Nova is fierce and strong. Parker is one sexy rockstar. This is a slow burn, forbidden romance and is filled with angst, drama and tension. The steam in this book is OFF THE CHARTS! I felt SO much when reading this. It is a real rollercoaster ride from beginning to end and I could not put the book down once I started it. I loved all the multi-layers to this complicated love story. Parker and Nova began as step siblings when their parents marry each other when they are teenagers. Something tragic occurs and forces them apart. One night of tequila brings them back together and Parker is determined to never let go of Nova again. I admired his determination. Nova wasn’t so eager to forgive right away. The story is told is dual POV and flips between past and present seamlessly. The only thing that stopped me from giving this a full five stars is the miscommunication and conflict that occurred. Both characters could have done more and in some ways this makes for very real, relatable and flawed characters but with just a little more effort some of it could have been avoided. My favourite thing about these characters was there passion for art and music. It is beautiful, emotional and made for a true and deep connection. Overall this was a fantastic story and I cannot wait for Rae’s book next.
