Are second chances possible in a world plagued with devastating loss, difficult obstacles and everyday commitments?

Having a very genuine understanding of death and grief, Ireland O’Brien has been able to put aside her anger and move forward with a career of helping orphaned children – making their lives better, even though she’s kept her own pain deeply buried within her heart.

Architectural engineer J. Bentley Roberts has also experienced his fair share of heartache. Nearly two decades ago, he suffered the loss of his role model and high school sweetheart in the same tragic accident. And, more recently, Bentley said goodbye to his marriage – leaving him to not only dust himself off, but also to help pick up his teenage son in the unsettling process.

As both of their best friends get ready to say their “I dos,” Ireland and Bentley find themselves together again after twenty years apart.

Will they be able to fight their past demons to finally find the love that’s always entwined them?

After growing up in Saranac Lake, a small town in upstate NY, Kathy-Jo Reinhart returned to her birth place and where she spent her summers with her grandparents, St. Petersburg, Florida, after graduating High School. The sub zero climate and piles of snow definitely weren’t a loss, in her opinion, and this is where she still resides with her Husband of fifteen years and their eleven year old son, who they lovingly refer to as their miracle baby. A name righteously earned after a very difficult and scary pregnancy with 7 1/2 months on complete bed rest.

By day, she works as an Office Manager for a construction company started by her grandfather and uncle. Like most people, she has a love hate relationship with her job, but cherishes all the years she was able to work side by side with her grandfather before he passed away.

Writing has always been something that she has loved. In school, creative writing was her favorite class. Writing a book was something she had always wanted to do, but was too afraid she didn't have what it took to make it happen. After going from working sixty hours a week to twenty, she found herself with a lot of extra time on her hands and decided it was time to take the leap. Crossing her fingers and closing her eyes, she jumped into creating the Oakville series and hasn’t looked back.

The first five star review she received after First Love, the first book in the Oakville series, was published, left her speechless, overwhelmed with emotion, and so blown away that someone really liked what she had written. Her initial fears seemed to calm and reassured her that others love her writing just as much as she loves doing it. How it will all turn out, still remains a mystery, but she’s having a blast seeing where these characters will take her.

When she isn’t spending time with her characters, she enjoys reading, spending time with her family, scrapbooking, and doing ancestry research.

Secrets-

Emily

I have a secret.

I need a savior; someone who can help me be free.

I never expected to meet the strong, stubborn Russian- Tate Masterson.

After my past, I should avoid him, not crave him.

Corrupted-

Viktor

I’m the dirty side of Mafiya. One thing about being the leader of the Bratva, I always get what I want, her included. I’m corrupted; don’t expect me to play fair.

Unwanted Sacrifices-

Sabrina

I never imagined I’d be grateful to be traded to the Bratva. To be awarded a new beginning, once I’m given to Nikoli. I’m already in love with him, but can he look past our friendship and return my love?

Corrupted Counterparts-

Spartak

One hot encounter with a feisty Italian, leaves this quiet Russian panting for more.

Sabrina

“Ready beautiful?” Chek inquires like I’m privy to have some sort of choice about it and my skin crawls.

If I never hear that pet name again, it would still be too soon. How can I possibly be beautiful after being trapped here and living like this? No, not living; at this point I’m simply existing.

He cuts away what’s left of the back of my thin, cami undershirt and washes an area on my back with a rough dish pad and then pats it dry. I have no idea what he plans to do; it could be a tattoo or he could be stealing my organs. Nothing would really surprise me anymore. I just know that one will hurt remarkably more than the other.

“Yes, Mr. Chek,” I respond automatically and feel the tip of something sharp on my back.

“You’re getting your mark Sabrina. It means that if you stay on track, once it heals you get to see Kolya. He will be very pleased with how tame you’ve become.”

“Thank you.” I gasp out as the sharp blade digs further into my flesh. The ripping sensation of skin and meat making me hold my breath to keep myself from retching what little is left in my stomach.

The tears come and I suck on my bottom lip until it hurts to keep myself from crying out. His deathly grip on my side keeps me from twitching away. Although as much as it hurts, I know he could drive that blade into my back at any time and it keeps me still.

“Ah, the mark of belonging to a Minski.” He sounds almost as if he’s in a lustful trance as the blood drips down my naked back. I feel something wet wipe one of the long drops off, and I’m trying hard not to believe it was just his tongue.

A tiny whimper escapes as the blade goes in a little too deep, my nose clogs and I wonder if this may be it. If I’ll somehow suffocate myself.

I’ll never belong to a Minski.

BLOG TOUR and REVIEW of Leela Lou Dahlin's ONE LAST FLING

Title: One Last Fling

Author: Leela Lou Dahlin

Release Date: March 21, 2016

Blurb

Event planner Daisy Maxwell has never been lucky at love, but her family’s financial issues convince her to toss her hat in the ring to be the Billionaire’s Bride. If all else fails, she figures she at least has a shot at planning the winner’s wedding. She never expects to meet a man—the wrong man—at the first event, a sexy chef who charms her and makes her believe there’s love at first bite.

Chef Ryder Blake has a problem…well, two. First, he’s met the most amazing woman at the best but worst time of his life. Daisy is a morsel of sexy and sweet all rolled into one dynamite package he’d love to sample. But his second issue is a little more complicated… He can’t tell Daisy—or anyone—he’s the secret billionaire seeking a bride before his thirtieth birthday or he’ll lose his inheritance. Daisy is definitely bride material, but he’s not sure he’ll survive the pressure, especially after she proposes one last fling before she plans to say “I do.”

Amazon/Goodreads Rating: 5/5 Stars

In Patti's Imagination Rating: 10/10 Stars

Another wonderful book by Leela, not surprising at all!!! This book is different from some I've read, as it centers around a man living 2 lives, at least in a sense, and a woman who loves the one she knows but must try to marry the faceless man to save her family.
Daisy is quite honestly perfect. I love how she's not your typical size 2 gorgeous main character, but instead a vivacious, sassy size 16 who embraces her curves and is still of course stunning. Ryder is a charmer, and at times I wished I was the one he was constantly feeding delicious foods to. His only downfall was the fact he had to essentially lie to Daisy, even if it was for a good cause. These 2 are a wonderful couple, and I can't wait to get the stories of some of the supporting characters!

“I will always be there for you, Mady, always.”

One month later, I was slammed with the realization that there were some things you just can’t count on being true.

College sophomore, Madelyne Stewart, has it all—a wonderful home, a close-knit family, and great friends. But when tragedy strikes, it flips her world upside down. She struggles to deal with the chaos of her crumbling life.

On the brink of failing her classes, Mady reluctantly agrees to study with a tutor. Max Granger drifts into her life like a breath of fresh air. Not only is he intelligent and an excellent tutor, he’s funny, laid-back, and has the amazing ability to soothe her troubled soul. His striking looks top off a complete package any woman—Mady included—would want. Except, she isn’t looking to add anything else to her broken plate.

Can Mady find a way to make it though her pain and see what is in front of her? Will she take chance on Max? Or will the pieces of her heart be too broken to mend?

AUTHOR: Brianna West

BOOK: Dawning

SERIES: Promiscus Guardians Book Three

Synopsis:

Izzy and Lucas have been through quite the ordeal over the last year: chased down by demons, hunted by Dark angels, and sought after by a sadistic, gorgeous mother-in-law. Now they’re back, and there’s a lot of loose ends to tie up. Like the army of juiced up toddlers, the flamboyant villain, and the sociopathic Mother Dearest. Not to mention, it’s now their sole duty to seek the help of the seven kings in the In-Between realm, which sounds easier than it is.

Dawning follows Izzy as she is once again the woman of the hour, the woman who can bring the realms together, the woman with that special something-something that everyone, including her vindictive, crazy mother-in-law, are working tirelessly to capture. Being special never felt like so much work. Saving the world was never something Izzy planned to do, but she’ll have to if she doesn’t want the mortal world to end, or any others for that matter. 

Excerpt

I was pinned beneath a vampire—well, a vampire-angel—and entirely at his mercy.

Lucky me.

Beyond the privacy bubble there was a world of demons and supernatural creatures warring against each other. But here, inside this tent with this incredible specimen of pure power, I was just a woman. And here, this vampire-angel, who was covered from head to toe in muscles that were bare and rippling with pent up tension, was just a man.

The pads of my fingertips traced the hard grooves of Lucas’ abdomen, feeling the immense strain as they quivered beneath the touch. Hot air breathed over the column of my neck as my hands quested further down, unhooking his belt with a little effort—or a whole lot of it—and sliding it from his pants. The soft thump echoed inside the quiet room as the heavy buckle of the belt hit the ground; it was the only sound inside here, aside from my heavy breathing.

Lucas’ lips traced my jugular, eliciting a soft gasp of air to escape my mouth. “Why must you entice me so intensely? I desire you so fervently that any moment I might steal you away, satisfy my yearning to have you, and do so without pause.”

I swallowed around my own desire to shut that pretty mouth of his with a sound kiss. Instead, my hand undid the zip and button of his pants as efficiently as was realistic for me, and slipped my hand inside. Lucas’ jaw went taut the moment I palmed him.

Smirking, my eyes trailed from the place my hand disappeared all the way back to his glowing gaze. “Less talking; more doing. I don’t want to get interrupted before I’ve satisfied my hunger for you.”
