~Finally By Scarlett Metal Blog Tour Review

4.5 Star Rating!!!!

Synopsis:
Lauren broke off an engagement with her old boyfriend because she caught him cheating on her. She's ready to move on and have some fun, but she's been too busy to meet anyone new.

Marcus has always been a player, unable to settle down with one girl. No one seems to meet his long list of requirements in a woman.

Marcus and Lauren have known each other for a few years, working for the same company but at different locations. They've always flirted some back and forth, but Lauren had been with Kyle. Now that she's single and they are in the same city for meeting, they spend a few passionate days together, both assuming this is just a fling.

They both eventual realize they want more than a fling, but can they make a long distance relationship work? And when Lauren's old boyfriend comes back to win her affection, can Marcus compete with their history?

 

Review:
Lauren and Marcus work together and have been interested in one another for a long time, although the timing was just never right.  Then things take an unexpected turn Lauren’s relationship just ended it because she caught her fiancĂ© Kyle cheating and Marcus the self- proclaimed player was single.

A work meeting in her city gives them the prime opportunity to get to spend a few days together.
This book moves a little bit fast but is really a sweet sexy read that I enjoyed reading and I would love to read more about these two.

The book is well written and there are PLENTY of steamy sex scenes that will make you wish you had a man as bold as Marcus. I found it VERY easy to get wrapped up in their feelings for one another!!
I am really looking forward to seeing how their story plays out!

Thanks to Scarlett Metal for allowing me to read and review this ARC copy.

The Final Lesson Plan Schooled Two Blog Tour







Blurb: 


The Final Lesson Plan SMUTLESS Schooled Two “They’re baaack!” The raunchy, witty gang from Schooled is back again, but this time what they lack in full-out graphic erotica, they more than make up for in humor, sarcasm, sexual innuendo, and believe it or not, emotional angst. Now that Janelle Garrity’s reputation has been slandered all over her hometown, and the locals are referring to her as “Professor Pedophile,” she has a lot of cleansing of her good name to tend to. But that won’t stop her from still getting down and dirty with her sexy boy toys, Briggs Alexander and Leo Cling. Both men taught her about that four-letter word, lust. But, can they further her education and teach her even more about that other four letter word, love? Briggs and Leo both possess secrets that Janelle never saw coming. Will those secrets be too much for her, causing this teacher to dismiss class early? Or does Janelle Garrity, teacher extraordinaire, have that special ability to turn all situations into a “teachable moment” for everyone involved? Inquiring and dirty minds want to know; will Janelle hold on to that hunky football star, taking him all the way to the end zone? Or will Janelle choose the romance-reading intellectual as her other half? The Final Lesson Plan will give you all the answers, and you won’t even have to cheat.

Review~

I give this book 4.5 stars!!!
  
Before I start please tell me in a comment on this post who you would choose Briggs or Leo



I really enjoyed this book as much as I did the First one. Leo and Briggs were as Awesome as they were in the First book.I love, love Char Janelle's very out spoken best friend. Janelle was really torn between these Two guys they both had so much to offer if I were in her shoes I am not sure who I would have chosen (okay maybe Leo he was the hopeless Romantic in this story) lol  I loved how the Author let the both guys have their own time to speak up in this book so we would know what they were thinking. I have to say though my favorite character was Leo Clings Mimi I love a funny outspoken granny!! Oh and at the end Janelle chooses.........Yeah right like I am going to tell you that!! Read both books you will love them!!!


A few of my favorite quotes from the book:

"I will cunt-punch you into the next timezone if you ever speak to me again" (Char)

"Leo Cling, You're the one I want to cling to for the rest of my life." (Janelle)

She leans over the counter to fetch the schedule. I eye her daisy-duke covered ass appreciatively while her head’s turned. If she catches me eye-fucking her, she’ll smack the shit out of me, but it’s worth the risk. Her ass is one hundred percent biteable and I’m going to make damn sure I get a piece. --Trip

Jaded/Faded Blog Tour Stop

5 Star Rating






Jaded Synopsis
I'm Scarlett Ryan.

Yes, THAT Scarlett Ryan.

I live an extraordinary life: millionaire rock star, owner of exotic cars, pictures of me in every magazine, millions of fans, and a name that is recognized world wide. It's supposed to be my dream come true. But, my life IS a fantasy, and I want real. I want exciting. I want... NORMAL. So, I moved from California to Florida, hoping to obtain some normalcy. Instead I find...

Stephan Montgomery.

He's an arrogant jerk. Seriously, I hate him. I swear if he tells me one more blonde joke, I will punch him... again... Unfortunately I can't stop thinking about him, or his gorgeous green eyes. Trust me, I know that he's bad for me. If only my heart would listen.

I also find out that my parents have kept a LIFE CHANGING secret from me. I need to know the truth.

The harder I strive for normal, the stranger things seem to get.


Jaded is book 1 of the Rock Star trilogy
.
 
 
5 Star Rating!!!!
Review:
Jaded had some really amazing fun characters and a great plot! This Book isn’t the average rock star book as the main character is a female and yes she is a ROCK STAR!!
Scarlett was the main character she really is down to earth and wants to finish up her senior year and graduate like ANY other teenager. Scarlett was extremely determined to do what she wanted instead of being told what to do all the time by her parents and her record company! I fell in love with her humorous attitude and sarcasm!
 Stephan began as a friend and soon became Scarlett’s love interest, he was funny and smart witted and I can honestly see why she fell so hard. I loved that he fell in love with Scarlett and not rock star!
This book has all the elements of a successful love story with lots of unexpected twists and turns, there was also some heartache I whole heartedly fell in love with this book and the characters!
 
 
 
Jaded will be ON SALE for the blog tour. It's normally 2.99 but it will be .99 for 7 days only! Here are the links!!!
 
 
 

 
5 Star Rating!!!
 



Faded Synopsis:
I left Hope – the only place I’ve ever felt at home. So now what? Where do I go from here?

When I left, I didn’t just leave my home. I left my friends, my sisters, and Stephan… I just found them.
can’t lose them now.

I know that I want to do MY music. I need to remember WHY I wanted to play music in the first place. And the only way to get that is by firing my dad, but that may be harder than I thought.

On top of everything, I now have cameras following me around everywhere. Even my own home isn’t safe anymore.
 
I’ve come to realize that normal will never be an option for me.
 
Review:
I loved this book as much as I loved Jaded……..Faded picks up exactly one week after Jaded ends, and Jaded ended with a little bit of drama so Faded picks it right up where it leaves off. This book shares some more secrets and definitely has plenty of drama, remember when I said Scarlett was determined to do what she wanted and not what everyone else wanted well in some ways
that works out for her and well in others……not so much. Scarlett and Stephen grow even closer in this book and honestly they have a bet going that I really just wish they would both get over, but I won’t spoil that for you! I think that these books are definitely a MUST read I honestly cannot wait until the third book in this trilogy comes out!

Distractions

Distractions

5 Star Rating

Synopsis:

“We are all pawns in someone else’s game.”

No one knows this better than Violet Phillips. When her beloved mentor goes missing, she suspects murder, which sends her spiraling out of control and away from the stable life she has built for herself. Soon, her past will begin seeping out with a vengeance.

“I will teach you how this game is played.”

Self-destruction threatens to consume Violet when a handsome neighbor that has been watching her from afar intervenes on her behalf. Shepard Leone may be six years younger, but it does not stop him from seducing her ears as well as her heart.

“Fascinating how much life can change in twenty-four hours.”

When Violet is forced to go down a dark road into a past where she must confront the demons that nearly destroyed her, will she be unable to deviate? Struggling with the loss of her missing friend, Shepard will find a way in and reawaken desires that she thought were forever lost. But Violet never forgets that if you are not careful, distractions will be your undoing.


Review:

Distractions is an edgy love story full of suspense. Usually when I thought I had the story figured out…BAM! There is absolutely no way I could have predicted what was going to happen with this read. Distractions kept attention, and there was so much in the storyline that was only partially told and god knows I wanted to know it all. I literally didn’t want to miss a thing!!!

Violet has led a very colorful life that has left her jaded. Will she ever be able to get past her trust issues? Shepard is her younger violin playing next door neighbor, he's always there for her. Connor is Violet's past, but will he stay that way?? You will definitely want to get to know Shepard and Connor ;-)

If you are looking for a book that offers so much more than a romance, Distractions by J.L. Brooks is it! This nail-biting, edgy, and absolutely sexy read will have your mind racing. Distractions will grab your attention and hold it until the bitter end.
