I have read a few books by K. Bromberg over the years and I loved them all. So when I received a sign up for ‘Hard To Love’ I didn’t hesitate one moment and signed up. So when I received an ARC of ‘Hard To Love’ I was super excited and started reading as soon ...KEEP READING »
When I read the book description of ‘More Than Dare You’ I was fascinated. But when I learned this was book 6th in a series, I was anxious. Would I miss things from previous books? But I decided to sign up anyway and started reading as soon as I got the ARC.
In ‘More Than Dare You’ we meet Tracy. Tracy has been a womanizer for years. He isn’t one for relationships. But when he meets Maisey, she makes him want to be different. But Maisey is only looking for someone to make her feel good. So Tracy decides to start with making her feel good about herself and then he will do his best to make her see he can be the right guy for her.
This book definitely didn’t have a slow intro. We start right at the moment when Tracy and Maisey meet. And although I didn’t ‘get’ the back story of Tracy and his brother. I didn’t feel for one moment I missed important information while reading this book.
‘More Than Dare You’ was definitely a fun and sexy read. I enjoyed how Tracy and Maisey got closer and closer. And although I think things went pretty damn fast between them, I believed there story and I loved their chemistry. There chemistry was definitely coming of the pages.
What I loved in this book was the setting of Maui. Although there wasn’t a lot of talk about the island, I enjoyed the fact this setting was a little different than normal. Somehow I kept picturing The Rock though. LOL!!
But the thing I loved the most? The fact that Tracy really was a decent guy. Yes he liked woman. And yes he had a lot of woman over the years, but he was definitely a good guy. I really enjoyed that.
‘More Than Dare You’ was a fun read that definitely makes me want to read more books in this series.
When I started reading ‘Hard To Handle’ it took me a while to really get into this story. Not that it was a bad beginning, but it just took me a while to get everything. But luckily, after reading the first few chapters I started to get hooked. And before I knew it, I couldn’t put this book down at all.
This book is definitely exciting in the way it almost feels like the best of multiple worlds. It’s a sport romance, there is also a enemies to lovers bit, and a second chance romance part that I definitely enjoyed. Although I’m not a very sporty person myself, I really enjoyed getting a glimpse of the sports world. Especially the Ice Hockey part. I can easily imagine me visiting a game like that.
The two main characters Decker Kincaid and Hunter Maddox have definitely a lot of chemistry between them. When they met years ago, the had a enemies/friends with benefits thing going on. But when things got to tough, Decker ended things. Now almost three years later, Decker is forced to spend time with Hunter again. And there is still a lot of chemistry between them. But they have to stay professional with each other now. Unfortunately this is not an easy task. Especially when Decker sees how much Hunter is hurting.
I rarely cry over books and stories. Not because I don’t feel touched by books, but I just don’t cry that often. Well.. ‘Hard To Handle’ definitely changed that. OMG!! I cried my eyes out like two times while reading this book. My husband thought I was going crazy! After I started getting into this story, I simple couldn’t get enough and it was so touching and so beautiful. Yes, I loved how Decker and Hunter grew closer and closer. But I loved the story how Hunter slowly became less troubled even more.
But why did this book touch me so much you ask? Maybe it’s because I work at a Traumatology department and see how easily things can change drastically every day. You leave your house to go to work, and bam… you get into an accident and your life changes forever. Some people can never walk again. Some people don’t even survive.. And part of this book reminded me of the patients I see every day and their stories. And especially that 18 year old patient with paraplegia I cared for a few years back. This story made me think of him.
‘Hard To Handle’ was a romantic, sexy, heartbreaking story I loved immensely. And I can’t wait to read more books in this series about Decker’s sisters.
When I read the book description of ‘Tempting Tim’ I knew this was a book I’d love to read. Even though this book is a part of a series, and I haven’t read anything by this author before, this book was supposed to read as a standalone so I dived right in.
‘Tempting Tim’ was right from the start an easy to read book that I got lost in right away. Somehow, I just didn’t need time to get into this story at all. Sure, the two main characters took some time to get to know. But it felt easy and I loved it. Conley and Tim where characters with a history. Throughout this read we slowly get to know their history more and more. But what becomes clear right away is that there is a lot of chemistry between these two.
The romance between Conley and Tim was just super fun to read. It was fun, it was easy and it was definitely swoon worthy. Conley moved back home after being with her Rockstar boyfriend for a very long time. She realized that her life and her feelings for her ex weren’t what she wanted out of life. And when she saw Tim, the guy she secretly wanted for a long time, she knew moving back home was the best decision.
Tim’s character was definitely my favorite. He was hardworking, kind, handsome and always kept his feelings for Conley a secret for everyone. At least that’s what he thought. I just loved reading about Tim, and I couldn’t get enough of him. I also really loved him owning a bar. I don’t know why, but I just always loved the idea of owning my own bar or lunchroom. And it fitted this story perfectly.
The only thing that didn’t really work for me was the moment that Conley and Tim got together. I felt like this came way to sudden. One moment they are fighting their feelings, being shy with each other even, and not wanting to risk their job and friendship and the next they are hooking up. It’s not that I didn’t like that, but I just thought it came rather sudden. I honestly thought Tim was about to wake up and realize it was just a dream.
Like I said before, this book is part of a series, but it can be read as a standalone. I did, and I never felt like I was missing stuff. The only thing it did was making me want to read the other books in the series too.
‘Tempting Tim’ was definitely a fun read I really enjoyed.
To be completely honest, I didn’t realize I was reading a prequel of ‘Every Little Piece of Me’ until I saw the cover of ‘Every Little Piece of Me’ after reading a view chapters. I received this book through Netgalley, and just hadn’t seen that it would conclude a prequel novella and the complete book. It definitely explained a lot though, since I wondered how the author was going to round up everything nicely before it felt being rushed.
In ‘Every Little Promise’ Brinley and Marston meet again for the first time after their dramatic break up ten years ago. Years ago they met at high school. Two very different kids. Marston grew up poor, with a drug addicted mother and Brinley grew up having everything she could ever want. At least that is the way it looks from the outside. But Brinley and Marston have a connection not a lot of people have. And when they broke up all those years ago, they were both heartbroken and never saw each other again.
Now they meet again and even though years have passed by, their chemistry is still very intense. And being together again makes them both want more. But Brinley is only supposed to see Marston for one time, because she has a big secret.
I definitely enjoyed this little prequel. I loved how we got to know Brinley and Marston through reading parts of the past and the present. It was a fun way to connect with these characters. And I definitely wanted to read more about these two.
Luckily for me, I had the full novel ‘Every Little Piece of Me’ waiting right after finishing this one.
