Mia’s been on the sidelines her whole life. Her parents have never been interested in her, and the only constant in her life has been her best friend, Ava. But Ava’s gone and fallen for a Devil—and everyone knows the Devils are trouble. In fact, trouble is now knocking on the door, threatening them all.
Mia has no intention of becoming involved in the drama, but she can't deny she's worried. So when Ava insists that Mia needs someone to watch over her, she reluctantly agrees.
Enter Ash Santo.
Ash is not Mia's idea of a knight in shining armour. He’s a player on the field—and an even bigger player off the field. But she finds unexpected shelter in his arms, and she can’t help falling for his charms.
Ash is still reeling from the revelations about his ex-girlfriend and his cousin. Desperate for an opportunity to escape them both, he begrudgingly agrees to watch over Mia.
No one is more surprised than he is when Mia proves to be an enjoyable distraction. She's flirty, sexy, and fun. It's problematic because his cousins told him to stay away from her; they already have enough problems without him messing about with Ava's best friend.
They told him to resist temptation. But what if he doesn’t want to?
And what will happen when the danger stalking them finally emerges from the shadows?

A mafia romance about betrayal and faith by Rachel Van Dyken, the number one New York Times bestselling author of the Eagle Elite series.
"The truth may hurt for a little while, but a lie hurts forever."—Ryan Bigge
I grew up knowing it would happen one day.
Believing that I would fall into my father's footsteps and become a monster of my own making.
So I fought it.
I lived.
I loved.
I teased.
And then one day… I destroyed.
And realized I loved the pain.
Obsessed over the feeling.
So I cut again and again and again.
She saw my rage, my madness, and tried to stop me from destroying myself, and I hated her for it, pushing her away past the point of no return.
Izzy Abandonato was supposed to be mine.
But there are some things people can never come back from. I hurt her, she hurt me, and now I'm living a lie. Telling the ones I love that I'm on one side when for years I've been forced to play both.
I'm no angel.
I've fallen.
And I may single-handedly bring down the Cosa Nostra—by default.
I, Maksim Sinacore, will have my vengeance.
I will win her back.
Even if it means I have to kill everyone in my path.
The pain masks the betrayal.
I never realized that one day—I'd be the very rat that I hated. That I was sent to kill. But once you're deep in a lie—you'll do anything to hide the truth.
She fell for the bad one.
She fell for the sinner.
So why does that make me smile?
REVIEW:
I was lucky enough to get an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review and let me tell you, I am so happy to share my thoughts on this one!!
Every time I finish a book in this series, I claim to have a new favorite. That’s no different now with Maksim’s story. I was enthralled with this book. I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen and how it was going to play out. I wanted to shake him and shove him and slap him and hug him so tight all at the same time. There were so many times in this book that I wanted to scream “let them love you!” At the same time, I understood. I understood the fear, the uncertainty, the need to protect those you love the most, even if they may not like it. There is a theme in all of these books that circles around protection and love. Family. Sacrifice. This story had even more. It made my heart hurt and made my heart soar. I loved it. I can’t wait for King’s story though I have no idea how RVD will top this one. 🖤

A sexy, new stand-alone in the Dalton Brothers Series from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …
I’m not the type of girl who picks up a man on a rooftop bar.
Not the kind of girl who lets a man’s hands roam my body, discovering I have no panties on.
Never the girl who has hours’ worth of o’s from a smoking-hot one-night stand.
But Dominick makes it so easy to say yes.
His body, his moves, and his oh-so-wicked tongue have me saying it over and over again.
Yes, please.
Yes, more.
Yes, right there.
He worships every inch of my body, and I’m still sore the next morning when I meet him again.
This time, he’s Mr. Dalton, my sister’s cutthroat entertainment lawyer.
And he has a proposition for me.
He wants to make me famous.
Of course, that means sharing a screen with my wildly jealous sister.
It means giving up my career.
It means the whole world will suddenly know everything about me.
Which presents one catastrophic problem—Dominick doesn’t date famous people.
So, do I take a chance at becoming a Hollywood star, or do I pass up the opportunity to be with the man who gave me a taste of forever?
REVIEW:
If you’ve read anything by Marni Mann before, you know that she can write an incredible story. It doesn’t matter if it’s something super serious and traumatic or if it’s something a little lighter and a whole lot steamier. The Lawyer is a lighter read compared to some of her other stories and very steamy and still incredibly well written!
Kendall, our female lead, may be the sweetest character I’ve read. She is kind, loving, welcomes anyone and everyone, allowed herself to be treated way worse than she should for the love of family, and just overall loves fiercely. She's the girl everyone cheers for and wants to succeed... unless you're just evil. Even evil things Kendall can see redemption in, though.
Dominick doesn’t want love. He’s happy where he is. He is large and in charge; happily living as the playboy lawyer to all of Hollywood’s elite. He stumbles upon Kendall one night at a party though and all bets are off. His heart keeps pulling him towards her even though his head says no. When he lets his heart take the lead though? No woman could resist his heart, his strength, his need to protect, his dedication, etc etc etc. The man brings the passion to this book and boy is it a doozy!
This story was so good! There were elements of surprise, drama, good clean fun, fire and passion, as well as sweet, sweet love. I loved it and can’t wait to read the next story from Marni!
Happy reading y'all!

USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann knew she was going to be a writer since middle school. While other girls her age were daydreaming about teenage pop stars, Marni was fantasizing about penning her first novel. She crafts unique stories that weave together her love of darkness, mystery, passion, and human emotions. A New Englander at heart, she now lives in Sarasota, Florida, with her husband and their yellow Lab. When she’s not nose deep in her laptop, working on her next novel, she’s scouring for chocolate, sipping wine, traveling, or devouring fabulous books.
Brooke is a Londoner born and raised. She lives with her husband and their daughter. She’s a foul mouthed, dirty minded weirdo. An introvert and would rather spend the night in front of the fire reading, rather than going out and partying.
New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg, is back with a heartfelt, enemies to lovers romance and a hero who redeems himself to steal your heart . . .
He was the one-night stand that didn't exactly go as planned. Now he's standing before me as if he's never seen me naked, telling my manager he'll take the job. Reluctantly.
Finn Sanderson.
Sports agent extraordinaire. Handsome as hell. The man who just signed on to control my every move.
Sure, I'm to blame for my recent bad press, but when your whole life has been so regimented, isn't it normal to want to live it up a little?
But when the partying stops and the grief I'm running from has nowhere else to hide, reality sets in. Turns out, Finn's the only person I have left to help pick up the pieces. The only person to call.
Staying with him is a temporary thing. But when our fighting turns into laughter and our friendship turns into something more, will I fight for a man who swears he's hard to love? Or is it wiser to walk away? To follow the plan?
* * * Offering to help with a client is a way to repay a long overdue IOU to my mentor. Little did I know she was the woman who left my hotel room at four in the morning.
Stevie Lancaster.
Top-seeded US tennis player. Good girl gone bad. The woman currently about to throw her career away. And now my problem.
The compensation to "babysit" her is great, but she isn't worth my trouble.
But when her world falls apart and she has no one else to turn to, I try to be a good guy by gathering her up and hiding her from the media's eye.
Now she's in my house, in my space, and even though I'm enjoying the side benefits of this unexpected arrangement, surely she's better to leave when the time comes and follow her destiny. Because I'm not the man she needs. Not the man she could love. Right?
Review:
I received an ARC of this book in exchange of an honest review and I’m so glad I had the opportunity!
This is one of the quickest books I’ve read in a while. I’m usually a pretty quick read in general, but I blew through this one because it was just so good.
I was so invested in how both Stevie and Finn thought about things, felt about things, and just their character’s lives in general. It’s not often in a book I am as intrigued by both main characters. Don’t get me wrong, in books I really enjoy I usually love both the main characters, but most of the time I can predict or easily understand how one of them will act or respond early on in a book. In this book, there is so much back story about both characters’ formative years and how they were impacted as a child that shows up in their relationships as adults that I was constantly wanting to learn more and find additional puzzle pieces to both Finn and Stevie.
If you’ve read any other books in this series, specifically Chase’s story (Hard to Lose), you may think that you want to skip over this book because there’s no way you’re going to find Finn appealing or even redeemable. I’ll be honest, I was nervous about this too. I was so wrong, though. Finn really grows up in this story in my mind. I like to believe that everyone has redeeming qualities and if we learn more about a person as an individual, we can see and understand why they are the way they are. This is easily the case for me for Finn in this story. We learn so much more about him and I’ll be honest, I was rooting for him more than anyone by the time this story was over.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Stevie too! She has her own issues that she works through and grows through. One thing I love about her is that she gets herself through what she needs to get through. She’s strong and confident and a pull yourself up by the bootstraps kind of girl, when she sets her mind to it. I love that about her.
I love each of them, individually and otherwise. I’d love to hear more of their story. Oh, and if you’re familiar with K Bromberg’s writing, you’ll know the passion is there. You’ll feel it. The 🔥 and steam is strong in this one, but not over the top in my opinion.
Overall, I just really enjoyed this story! I don’t want to give too many details away because I want you to read it with a clear open mind, but I do hope you’ll take the time to read it! So good.
