Sandra's Review

The Good Guy Challenge is the second book in the The Dating Games series by Lauren Blakely. You can read each book as standalone but I recommend reading the series since in Lauren fashion, there are always connections between characters. This is Ellie (Veronica’s bestie) and Gabe’s (Drew’s teammate) story and it was full of surprises!

Ellie Snow was making moves. Moving from New York to Venice Beach. Moving from actress to writer/producer. She was a boss lady and an independent woman. She was nervous and excited for her new life. She had a week before she got crazy busy with her show, The Dating Games. Her plan was to chill and hang out with old and new friends. What she didn’t see coming was a challenge. To date a good guy and she just so happened to see her teenage dream the night before. He was the good guy on the block in their hometown. He was also hot as sin. A tatted football player with a big heart. A good guy. What she didn’t expect was another side to him…

A filthy side. An alpha side. An adventurous side. And less than a week to explore them. That was the deal.

These two are 🔥🔥! Holy fucking hotness, Batman!! I can’t even. Lauren brought in the kink with this one and I am here for it. It’s the prefect amount of fun, sweet, and sinful. It’s one of my favorite Lauren books! The characters. The connection. The confessions. The heat. The love. The friendships. Everything!

I ♥️ Gigi! I ♥️Myrtle too!!

Quotes:

“Gabe, I want you to kiss me like you’ll die if you don’t.”

Hello, five-alarm fire! This man can go from zero to sixty in the dirty department. I’m determined to keep up.

This woman is going to push all my buttons tonight. When Ellie role-plays, she fucking plays. She is all in. And I have to hold my own.

Kara's Review

The Good Guy Challenge is the second book in The Dating Games series by Lauren Blakely. I had no idea when I met Gabe in Two A Day that he was going to give us all the flirty, dirty business but I am here for it! What’s better than playing a game you love, hanging out with your buddies and just being a genuinely nice guy? Running into an old friend who’s all grown up and gorgeous. Now that she’s not too young for him, it’s ok for him to take a second look. And a third and fourth. Ellie can’t believe her luck is about to change. No more bad boys for her. When she runs into an old crush, who’s a good guy, she needs to accept the challenge. She doesn’t expect Gabe to be a dirty talking bad boy in the bedroom, but whoa. Please and thank you! The more time they spend together, the more real it gets. Is this just a fun challenge or is it something more? Oh damn! These two almost lit my kindle on fire! Their banter was fun, their sexiness off the charts. I’m still fanning myself! Gabe is so sweet and dirty and fun and one of those book boyfriends you wish were real! Ellie is sweet, sassy and ready for anything Gabe wants. Their history gives them the extra connection and makes it all that much more! I’m loving this series and can’t wait for what Lauren has next!

Blurb:

Fake real dating the one who got away? Sign me up…

There’s just something about bad boys. Tattoos and leather jackets, am I right?

Trouble is, my last boyfriend was a teensy bit too bad and now he’s in prison. Yikes.

When my friends challenge me to take a dip in the good guy side of the dating pool, I see their dating bet and I raise it, looking up the guy I crushed on growing up.

With a winning grin and heart of gold, Gabe Clements is now the star receiver for a pro football team.

Except, the supposed good guy turns out to be nothing like I imagined. He’s better. He’s growly, possessive, smoldering.

And he’s determined too. At the end of the night, he asks me to be his fake real girlfriend for the rest of the week.

Sounds like my kind of dating challenge since he’s a good guy by day, and a very dirty man after dark.

I’ll cure my bad boy blues in no time.

Well, as long as I don’t fall for Gabe’s big heart too.

The Good Guy Challenge is a standalone romance in The Dating Games series! You’ll also enjoy The Virgin Next Door!

Sandra's Review

Just What I Needed is a novella in the Stage Dive series by Kylie Scott. I have read but not all of the series so I can say you can absolutely read this as a standalone. I can also say that it will make you want to read more in the series.

The first time she saw him he was half-naked in her kitchen. She had no complaints except how awkward she felt in his presence. She was a hot mess with one-word answers till her friends came in to build her confidence and get the ball rolling on what could be the start of something new and exciting. Love.

Dean and Jude’s story is so much fun! It’s also flirty, sexy, and beautiful.

Quotes:

There’s something romantic and soulful about a man who is a musician.

“Can’t believe you think we wouldn’t work in bed, though. Not going to lie, Jude. That hurts.”

“So prove me wrong, Dean. Prove me wrong.”

Can this tormented prince accept love, or will he push his princess away forever?

Princess and the Player, an all-new neighbors-to-lovers romance featuring an NFL football player and a masquerade ball from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills, is now available!

A masquerade ball brings together an NFL player and a penniless princess in this smart and sexy romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills. Levelheaded Francesca Lane never thought she’d miss her own wedding. But when her fiancé betrays her, she puts on her wedding dress and ditches the altar for a masquerade ball—at an exclusive lifestyle club. There, she meets unknown-to-her NFL star Tuck Avery, dressed as a prince and hiding behind a mask—he’s there to celebrate his birthday. For one night, Francesca and Tuck indulge in a wickedly incognito affair. No names. No strings. And the masks don’t come off. Unfortunately, Francesca realizes quickly that her masked prince is the wealthy jock who lives in the penthouse of her apartment building. His hobbies include parties and supermodels—or so the tabloids say. Getting tangled up with a shallow jerk is the last thing Francesca needs right now, so she vows to keep Tuck from recognizing her (not that she’s his type anyway). But fate has a teeny-tiny trick up her sleeve…a plus sign on a pregnancy test. Can this tormented prince accept love, or will he push his princess away forever?

Kara's Review

The Princess and the Player is the second book in the Strangers in Love series by the fabulous Ilsa Madden Mills. I knew when we met Tuck I was going to love him. His story is everything I wanted it to be and more! He’s funny, sexy, a pro baller, but he’s also hurting and has a past that’s constantly haunting him. When he meets a beautiful stranger at a masquerade party at a sex club, it seems like the perfect night. No names, no faces and just one night. But fate had other ideas. Turns out she lives in his building and doesn’t seem to want anything to do with him. Francesca never thought her one-night stand would turn out to be her rich and famous neighbor, but here we are. Now not only does she see him everywhere, she’s keeping a very big secret from him. She’s pregnant. What are the odds. The connection between Tuck and Francesca is too strong for either of them to ignore. For once Tuck wants to actually get to know a woman. There’s just something about her that calls to him. Calms him. Makes him want to be a better man. But what happens when he finds out about the baby? Will that be the end of them or the beginning of their story? Oh man! I loved Tuck and Francesca! Their romance isn’t all fun and games. They both have pasts and have a hard time accepting love. But they are destined to be together. I loved watching them fall and grow and finally give in. Overall, I laughed, cried, got hot and bothered and just loved it!

Sandra's Review

Princess and The Player is the second book in the Strangers in Love series by Ilsa Madden-Mills. I loved Tuck in Beauty and The Baller so I was so excited when Ilsa announced that he was getting his own book! It is a total standalone by the way, but I recommend reading Ronan’s story since it’s awesome too!

It’s Tuck’s birthday. It was supposed to be Francesca’s wedding day. Fate brought them to a…sex club that night. She calls him a perv and that was it, their start. Their night ended with a bang. A few of them. A one-night no-strings attached night. No names. Makes stayed on. No kissing. It was a night neither of them forgot but it was always supposed to be that one night. And when she realizes who he really is…she doesn’t want more. He is an arrogant playboy who dates model after model and plays football for a living and happens to live in her building. She doesn’t want him to recognize her especially after she finds out her illness is not a bug trying to kill her from the inside but a baby. She doesn’t know what to do, should he feel like she trapped him? Would he be angry? Would he abandon her and their baby? She is confused and more so when she actually starts to get to know him. Maybe the prince could love the princess and live happily ever after… but wait will happen when he finds out about the heir?

I loved this couple! They are a hot mess and that makes them even more real. From start to finish I was addicted to them. I also loved her little family of misfits and their billionaire. And of course Jasper. That man also has my heart. ♥️

“So do you ever think about that night?” I don’t have to ask which night.

“No, never.” Big. Fat. Lie.

“Yeah, me neither. It really sucked. Worst ever.”

“Totally, right?”

“Totally.” He smirks.

“Life sure does want you to see him,” he murmurs.

I grimace. Fate is a tenacious bitch.

And sometimes when she doesn’t get what she wants, she tries again and again.

“You undo me, Princess . . .”

New Release & Review – Just One Night, Felice Stevens

November 4, 2022 | Posted in New Release, Review | By Two Book Pushers

Title: Just One Night

Author: Felice Stevens

Genre: Contemporary MM Romance

Release Date: November 2, 2022

In the rough and tumble world of New York City, these men don’t mind getting down and dirty—in business or each other.

It isn’t every day a gorgeous stranger shows up in my bedroom wearing not much more than an arrogant smile. When I discover he’s a high-priced escort and a surprise birthday present from my sister…now she’s gone too far.

Except I haven’t been able to stop kissing him long enough to tell him to leave.

No one has to know he’s spent the night. And when we’re done, he’s gone and out the door. Never to be seen again.

Well, not exactly.

Because for some crazy reason, I can’t quite forget Archer Strong.

It’s a job like all the others. Another evening of million-dollar seduction and fake desire that’s made me the most exclusive escort in New York City.

But after one kiss from billionaire real-estate mogul Madden Steele, I’m not pretending anything.

And when he wants to see me a second time, I break my rule of one and done.

Because just one night with Madden isn’t enough. I want to see him again.

And again.

Now he’s asking for something more. Something that could solve all my problems, and his. But it’s something I can’t give him.

Or can I?

With an enemy from inside Madden’s family scheming to take control of his company and destroy me, we’re in for a fight. Holding on to each other might be the biggest risk of our lives, but it’s the only way to reap the greatest reward—love.

From Lambda Literary Award-winning author Felice Stevens comes a passionate story of two men fighting the demons of their past and unexpected desire for each other. Expect steamy encounters, backstabbing relatives, lots of cuddling and junk food in bed.

Kara's Review

Just One Night is a new standalone M/M romance from the fabulous Felice Stevens. I love new and exciting stories and characters from my favorite authors. Just One Night is sexy, emotional story about the family you make, loyalty and friendship. Madden hasn’t dated in a long time and his sister thinks he needs someone in his life. Even if it is a highly paid escort for just one night. Madden didn’t expect to keep thinking about Archer after he left his apartment. And he never expected to ask Archer to spend more time with him. Just him. Archer never has feelings for the men he’s paid to be with. Until Madden Steele. Now he’s caught up in the man, his life, and he doesn’t want to ever leave. But can it work out for the billionaire and the man he pays for sex. Oh man! I really enjoyed this story. I loved Madden and Archer. They are both successful in their own way. But have pasts that have defined their futures. They have family and friends who care about them and only want to see them happy. Together. They have to overcome a lot of things to try to make it work, but honestly, communication and a little lust help!

Felice Stevens has always been a romantic at heart. She believes that while life is tough, there is always a happy ending around the corner. Her characters have to work for it, because just like life in NYC, nothing comes easy and that includes love.

Felice is the 2020 Lambda Literary Award winning author in best Gay Romance and two time e-Lit award winner in romance. When not writing or watching reality television, you can find her in her reader group.

NOBODY CARES UNLESS YOU’RE PRETTY by Lani Lynn Vale is OUT NOW!!!

The problem with Wake was that he was understandable. He was the type of villain that literally scared the absolute shit out of you because you knew that under the right circumstances, you could end up exactly like him.

Which, sadly, was the case for me.

I’d done the exact same thing as Wake, and now I was a murderer just like him.

Did I know that I did wrong? Hell yes.

Did I regret that? Hell no.

Did I plan on changing a thing? Also, no.

Was I falling in love with a man that should scare the shit out of me? A resounding hell yes.

Kara's Review

Nobody Cared Unless You’re Pretty is the first book in the Gator Bait MC series. I was downright giddy when I heard Wake was getting his own story! We met both Wake and Dutch in Never Trust the Living and now they are starting a whole new spin off series! Wake is about to be released from jail. Dutch is a psychologist. She seeks him out in prison to ask for help. Now that he’s out he’s going to find her. He knew he wanted her the minute he saw her. All red hair and curves. Now he just has to convince her to take a chance on him. It’s not going to take all that much! Dutch wants Wake desperately but she wasn’t prepared for how fast things started to move. One night turns into more, turns into something very permanent. Now she’s getting to know his daughter and his sister and being brought into his family. They are stronger together and they need to be to deal with the sheriff. He’s trying to catch Wake and send him back to prison, but that isn’t going to happen. Wake and Dutch are so fun and hot and sexy together! I love how smart and independent she is and how laid back and fierce he is! It’s the perfect start to a new series!

Sandra's Review

HOLY. FUCK. What a crazy adventure down the rabbit hole! Rev and Darcie are some crazy ass MoFos and I am here for it. Damn, Monica and Michelle, what a kickass debut of your co-writing. I can’t even go into the storyline, Monica, you know I love going in blind and this one was no exception. I knew it was going to be dark. I knew it was going to be epic but again…holy fuck, these authors have me questioning my sanity one again. I 🖤 Rev. I have a lady-crush on Darcie. She has to be one of the, if not the badass heroines. Ever. If I was Rev, I would be scared…

I can’t wait to continue my fall down the rabbit hole.

Quotes:

“Set the world on fire, firecracker.”

“Let’s burn this fucker to the ground.”

“Yes, little rabbit…I’m going to take you on an adventure, and oh yes, blood will be spilled.”

Two broken misfits have somehow learned to become a little less broken by finding one another.

Blurb:

My name is Rev.

I like long walks on the beach.

A neat scotch.

And I like stealing from rich losers who have no idea the town’s Big Bad Wolf screwed their wives six ways to Sunday.

Such a scandal, indeed.

I have one end goal—to get out of this town.

I’m a loner. And that’s by choice.

People aren’t really my thing. That is…until I meet her. The little firecracker who sets more than my soul on fire.

No one has ever stuck around.

But Darcie is different. She seems to be as broken as me, and when our worlds collide, nothing but trouble looms.

Watch out, baby…down the rabbit hole we go.

About the Authors:

Monica and Michelle are best friends who have combined their love for dark comedy, crime documentaries, and bad boys to write dark romance that will steal your heart and haunt your mind.
