Blog Tour & Reviews – Reckless, Adriana Locke

April 29, 2021 | Posted in Blog Tour, Review | By

Reckless, an all-new sexy and playful standalone romance in the Mason Family series from USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke is available now!

“How did you get in here?”

That’s not what you want to hear when you’re staring into the sea-green eyes of the hottest man you’ve ever seen. Yet I suppose it’s a fair question, considering I’m an uninvited stranger standing in Boone Mason’s kitchen.

If you think that’s bad—just wait. It gets worse.

This charming and wealthy playboy, who can’t pay his bills on time or find his way to the grocery store (but we all have flaws, right?), is sweet. Confident. Playful. He’s almost perfect. And, to make matters worse …

He’s smitten with me.

I know what you’re thinking. You’re rolling your eyes. You’re assuming this is some opposites attract situation—or that maybe we can be friends who turn into something more.

How can this be a bad thing?

Well, it’s simple. I’m not the kind of girl you fall in love with. Just to be sure, the universe reminds me of that in an unforgettable, in-your-face kind of way.

I might have broken into Boone’s house, but I won’t let him break my heart. I won’t break his either. There’s too much on the line to be that reckless.

5 out of 5 stars

Reckless is the third book in the Mason Family series by Adriana Locke. You can read each book as standalone but I recommend reading the series since they are all tied together by family. And what a family it is! They are hilarious, supportive, and sweet in their own ways. This is Boone’s story…
He thought he was about to either be murdered or have a naked woman waiting in his bed. His mind was a mess when he got a call that a woman was climbing into his bedroom window when he wasn’t home. Who he didn’t expect was her. A stranger who brought him to his knees with one look. She was no murderer but she could very well break his heart if she didn’t give him the time of day. Turns out she will be living very close to him for the next week. He is charming but is he charming enough to get her to believe that he isn’t just some bachelor who was playing games?
Jaxi isn’t the type to fall in love. She wasn’t the girl who believed in fairy tales. That was her cousin. The one she was house sitting for. Soon, she would be gone and the man who says he is likes her will be gone too. She was a hot mess and didn’t make plans for the future. She did that and look where it landed her. But what if?…
I really can’t say anything more. I can say that Boone is hilarious, sweet, and way more than just a playboy who hates to work. And Jaxi is stronger than she believes. I enjoyed their story soooo much. It’s adorable, flirty, funny and full of family. I am looking forward to the next book.
Quotes:
“If I get murdered, I fully expect you to sing hymns at my funeral,” I say. “Make it sappy and super over-the-top, or I’ll haunt you.” “You’re not getting murdered, dumbass. Settle down.”
“We’re going to have fun, aren’t we?”
He tastes like cinnamon and syrup. Heat and spice. Passion and hunger.

Reckless is the third book in the Mason Family series by Adriana Locke. Adriana is the queen of small town romance and family. There are five Mason brothers. Funny, handsome, sexy, swoony brothers and it’s Boone’s turn. We’ve met Boone. We love Boone. Now I’m in love with him. He’s funny, smart, silly, loveable, loving and just an all-around nice guy. Even when he catches a stranger in his house who broke in through the window.  Wrong house. Right girl. Boone is a big believer that everything happens for a reason, and Jaxi falling into his life is the answer to all his questions. She might not be there to stay, but soon it looks like she can’t be anywhere but in Savannah. With Boone. Jaxi is scared. This is a new life and she’s not use to things going her way. She believes if something seems too good to be true, it is. But Boone is going to prove her wrong. Sometimes when something good happens to you it because you deserve all the good in the world. I love the Masons. So much. Every brother for different reasons. Siggy, their mom, is mom aspirations! Overall, I loved every word. I laughed, teared up, laughed some more and my heart is just happy! P.S.: Rosie, I’m with you. Wade, I love you.

Blog Tour & Reviews – Bad Intentions, Ella Frank

April 29, 2021 | Posted in Blog Tour, Review | By

Bad Intentions, the first book in the all-new compelling age-gap romance and first book in the Intentions Duet from USA Today bestselling author Ella Frank available now!

My name isn’t Logan Mitchell, but Marcus St. James doesn’t know that…

When I showed up at my roommate’s work party, the last thing I expected was to find a man straight out of my dreams. But when the crowd parted and the fates aligned, there he was, waiting for me. Marcus St. James, president of ENN WorldWide News.

Sexy and powerful, with a stare that could freeze you in place, Marcus was the perfect reward for securing a job at Mitchell & Madison, the best law firm in Chicago. To play with the big fish, however, one must become a big fish, and that’s where my little white lie began.

It was one night. I was never going to see him again, and from the second we spoke, I knew he was interested. It was there in his eyes, the same fire in my veins. It was there in his voice, whenever he said my name.

The only problem? It wasn’t my name, and now I wanted more—much more.

But how can anything good come out of something that started with such bad intentions?

Bad Intentions is the first book in the Intentions Duet.

5 out of 5 stars

Bad Intentions is the first book in the Intentions duet by Ella Frank. It’s a spin-off to both the Prime Time and the Temptation series. The series can be read without reading those series but I do recommend reading them at some point if you haven’t since they are f*cking amazing!!
Gabe needed this job. Badly. An assistant to one of the best lawyers in the city, shoot in the US was exactly what he needed. Mitchell & Madison would help him get back on his feet. And when Logan hires him he is excited and in shock and ready to celebrate. He didn’t think celebrating with his roommate at a work party would change his life so dramatically but it brings him in front of the sexiest man he has ever seen. Marcus St. James.
Marcus hated these things. Parties. He would rather be home or working in his office. News never stops. But when someone invades his personal space in the corner he claimed he had no idea how much that man would affect him. The man was charming, bold, and sinfully sexy. One night. He deserved it, right? It was a night to celebrate so why not with Logan Mitchell, a man who turned head like nobody else.
It was supposed to be a one-off until they see each other again. What will happen when Marcus finds out his Logan was actually a Gabe?
Damn…this book is sizzling! I love Gabe. He doesn’t back down and is hilarious! He knows exactly how to push Marcus’s buttons in the best of ways. And Marcus is a serious man with a secret sweet and witty side. I love them together and can’t wait for the next part of their story.
Quotes:
“Who did you come with tonight?”
A wicked grin tugged at the corner of his lips. “No one, yet. But the night’s still young.”
“Look,” Logan said. “I think it’s about time that you met the real me, and basically—”
“The real him has no filter,” Tate said.
“I was going to put it more delicately than that.”
“Then you would’ve been lying,” Tate said, and I had to bite back a laugh.
“Mr. St. James, I’m starting to think you have a penchant for getting up to trouble in risky places.”
“I think I have a penchant for getting in trouble with you.”

Bad Intentions is the first book in the Intentions series by the fabulous Ella Frank. Oh! A new series where we get to meet a new character and see a few old ones we love. When I met Marcus St. James, I desperately wanted to know his story and Ella is giving it to us and giving it good! Gabe is just tagging along with his best friend to his work party. He never thought he’d see the sexiest man in a killer suit. There’s no harm walking right up to him and making his intentions clear. Even if he does tell Marcus he’s Logan Mitchell, Gabe’s new boss. One hot encounter was all it was supposed to be, but the little lie comes back to bite him. He has to fix it or he loses his job. Marcus isn’t so easy to forgive but he has the perfect plan for Gabe to pay him back. He just didn’t realize how his life was going to change. Holy moly! Ella, you are the queen. I couldn’t love your characters more and although Logan and Tate do make an appearance, they are just the icing on the Gabe and Marcus cake. I couldn’t put it down, but I wanted to read it slowly so I could savor it. The lust, the foreplay, the fun. I loved how Gabe is just so carefree and confident but also mature and responsible. Just what Marcus needed to help him loosen up. Marcus is so serious and dedicated, but when he lets down his guard his laughter and smile are a thing of beauty. Gab is fun, sexy and goes after what he wants. I love these two and I can’t wait for more of their story!   “Mr. St. James, I’m starting to think you have a penchant for getting up to trouble in risky places.” “I think I have a penchant for getting in trouble with you.”
