Carter was captivated by Ellyson Evans the moment he laid eyes on her,
but she was the one girl who didn't beg for his attention.
He wanted her.
Ellyson vowed to never fall in love, because love can destroy you,
but then she met Carter Jennings.
She wanted him.
Unwilling to risk their comfortable friendship, neither confessed their desires.
Losing touch after college, a chance meeting reconnects them.
They want each other.
But love in the city is never quite that easy.

Instead of celebrating his homecoming and living in marital bliss with her soulmate, Mags finds herself living in constant agony. Dealing with the guilt of still living without Randy, are Randy's best friends and parents.

This is such a good start in this debut novel for Author Kristen Hope Mazzola!  This novel is told from the point of view of Mags McManus.  Mags married her college sweetheart, Randy. The two were not married for that long when he went away for the military and died in an accident. You get to see the ups and downs of emotions that Mags go through. She is still learning to cope with events in her life and trying to move on with her life.  

Mags has a good group of friends that she has known since college.  They have been the support system she needs by always being there for her. Her in laws usually invite her over for dinner and are so good to her.  Her mother tries to show her support to her, but the way she does it irritates Mags.

One of her college friends, Walker, who happens to be Randy's best friend, she does start to develop feelings for.  She feels guilty for having these feelings, like she's cheating or betraying her late husband for the thoughts.  Mags and Walker eventually do go along with their feelings for one another.    

The two having a relationship together is not exactly going to be a cakewalk.  The two do have a lot of fun and hot moments together.  Mags does still have Randy in her mind at times.  We do learn that Walker does have some demons that he has kept hidden well, but trying to battle..

Crashing Back down does have a roller coaster ride of emotions.  The characters have their sad moments and they also have their fun times as well.  With the way the novel ended, you are left wondering what is going to happen and eager for the next installment!

Evil of Love by NL Echeverria Blog Tour




Warning: This book is for mature audience only due to sex, language and violence.

“I can’t take it! I’ve been craving you ever since I saw you the other day. I haven’t stopped thinking about you since you disappeared ten years ago! I need you Steph. I’m sorry…” -Eric Sutherland

Stephanie Wilcox never saw it coming after giving up that life ten years ago of constantly being verbally and emotionally abused by her drunken father. She didn’t run, but when she left, she never looked back. Forced by her abusive father to live with her Aunt Elizabeth, she had to leave behind the one person that had shown her true love. In her mind, Eric Sutherland, deserved so much more and being with her would only bring him down. She never stopped loving the sun-kissed boy who held her hand and touched her kindly.

It was years later when Stephanie met Travis Barnes, a young self-made billionaire who swooped in and helped mend some of her loneliness. However, after marrying Travis, he began to show who he really was and he was the type of man she was accustomed to, after growing up with an abusive father, and regardless of his flaws she still loves him. After all, why would she deserve any better?

Eric broke, his kindness, his pure heart, it all fell apart that day Stephanie left. He did all he could to reach her, but it was hopeless. All the sadness, anger, and sorrow built up inside him over time and no one could replace the love he had for Stephanie. Fighting has been his outlet and now as a well-known UFC undefeated fighter, his career is all he has, but no matter how hard he tries to forget her, he can’t.

Ten years later he comes face to face with those large brown eyes that belong to the one girl he’s always loved and everything changes. This time he won’t let her get away. 




There are many versions of ME. I'm a wife of an amazingly supportive husband, a mother of three beautiful boys that inspire me every day, a friend, a dedicated worker always looking to succeed, an author with characters and stories always on my mind and then there is Me. The woman that loves to stay up late and sleep in, takes ten minutes every morning before the kids are up to sit and have a quiet cup of coffee. The woman that loves staying up late with a good book and getting lost in the words. Enjoying a glass of wine with dinner to wind down from my long days. A person who is still a girl at heart, loving to smile, laugh and have fun whenever the opportunity arises. My favorite place is still the beach because nothing is more peaceful then listening to the sounds of the ocean against the shore. This is all a part of who I am and I LOVE being me!

Firecracker Set Ablaze by Megan Flint Blog Tour




Trixie Harridan is not your typical leading lady. She's no damsel in distress and she's certainly nobody's victim.

This firecracker knows what she wants and just how to get it. She'll surrender to a man, because that's what turns her crank, but whether he realizes it or not, it's always on Trixie's terms.

Still, the fiery redhead might have taken on more than she can manage with Cy, the tattooed masseuse who's up for anything, and Erik, the massive fitness coach who wants her all to himself.

Whoever said "you can't have your cake and eat it too" never met Trixie Harridan.

Naughty Scale: Steamy male/female oral foreplay and brassy undaunted sex. If you aren't 18 years old yet, avert your prying eyes. Or go ahead and look. I can't stop you.

Collection Includes:
Firecracker #1 (Firecracker in Heat)
Firecracker #2 (Firecracker Goes Astray)
Firecracker #3 (Firecracker Under Pressure)
Firecracker #4 (Firecracker Takes Aim)
Firecracker #5 (Firecracker on Target)



Trixie Harridan is such an interesting character.  She's agressive, daring and when she knows what she wants, she goes for it.  Trixie being so needy does make her a bit selfish too.  This kind of personality is what made this story such a really hot read.

With Trixie being needy, she does  end up in a bit of a "love triangle."  Here's Cy, a hot new guy that just came into the picture.  Then there's Erik, another hottie from her past that she purposely seeks out to run into.  Trixie wants to continue seeing both men since she enjoys being with both of them.  Erik does have a business partner Vanessa, who was involved with Erik.  She still has feelings for Erik and is not cool with Trixie coming back into the picture and isn't really quiet about it.

The way the events go in the story, I wondered as I read if she does truly want one guy over the other.  Yes, I was rooting for one guy and I won't say who it is on here!  What I will say is Trixie does have someone in mind and does make it known who she lays claim to!

Megan Flint has done a great job with this series.  If you love really hot, sexy stories,  then you will enjoy reading Firecracker Set Ablaze!

Megan Flint has never put much stock in shame. Not surprisingly, she writes about characters who feel the same way. If you enjoy reading about women who own their sexual appetites, Trixie Harridan and the "Firecracker" series doesn't disappoint.
