A slightly flawed Dom who has six days—and six very steamy nights—on a Caribbean cruise to convince an innocent woman from his past that maybe the best way for two broken people to find true love is to jump headfirst into the deep end of desire.

Liv Sloane needs a vacation. After her cheating ex broke her heart—and their engagement—Liv never fully recovered. In fact, she’s spent the past two years avoiding romance at all costs… with the exception of that sizzling one-night stand she can’t seem to forget. So when her friends from college suggest a reunion cruise, Liv knows a relaxing week of sun, sand, and beach reads is exactly what she needs to clear her mind. But when they board the ship, Liv is hit with two surprises. Her friends accidentally booked a singles cruise, and her one-night stand is waiting on deck.

Miles Schantz has spent the past six months thinking about Liv. As a Dom at one of the hottest sex clubs in Las Vegas, Miles has his pick of women… so why can’t he get Liv out of his head? When he receives an email asking him to join Liv on a cruise, he can’t believe his luck. But when he meets her on board—and she’s completely unaware of her “invitation”— Miles has to come up with a new plan. Six nights of no-strings-attached passion. Six nights of wild fantasies, sexy games, and forbidden adventures. Six nights to show Liv that she belongs with him…

A hot, funny brother’s best friend rom com… with sugar on top!

She's his best friend's little sister. He's known her all his life. He's practically part of the family. There is nothing either of them could do to surprise the other at this point.

Then she showed up in his bedroom in lingerie and asked him to take her V-card.

Okay, that was a surprise.

Aiden is pretty sure Zoe was equally surprised when he told her no.

To say that he didn't handle it well would be a massive understatement. Almost as massive as the amount of work he's going to have to do now to convince her that he wants her. Forever.

Right after he tells her that he's bought the company that's her bakery’s biggest competitor.

Maybe if he tells her he’s in love with her first, that will help sugarcoat the whole we're-rivals-in-business-now thing.

So, first "I'm in love with you", then "take off your clothes", then "I'm now your business adversary".

Piece of cake.

Title: Sugarcoated
Author: Erin Nicholas
Series: Hot Cakes (Book 1) 
Pages: 322
Genre(s): Contemporary, US, Small-Town Romance
Hot Buttons: n/a

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There’s no-one better at bringing romance in a small-town to life than Erin Nicholas. And of all of her stories that I’ve read - there are always my favourite of hers. Especially if there’s baked good involved. And there are often baked goods involved!

This is the first book in what’s set to be an amazing series about Appleby - said small town in the middle of Iowa. We’ve met most, if not all, of the folks who I’m hoping will get books of their own and I already love them all. But this book focuses on the love story of Aiden and Zoe - two people who have known each other their whole lives and know everything about the other. Or so they believe.

While this is technically a brother’s best friend / best friend’s little sister romance - it doesn’t come with the usual conflict since Cam (the older brother / best friend) doesn’t make much of an appearance in this book - and none at all in terms of interfering in the relationships between Aiden and Zoe. I liked the way that it was a bit different from other stories. I liked the way that both of our couple made a sudden shift-change realisation in their feelings for each other rather than one or both pining away for each other since birth! And then finding things out about each other - that they thought they knew so well - made their love story feel special.

Zoe wasn’t really what I expected. I expected sugary sweet and cute and naive. And while she is all those things, she’s also feisty, honest, goes after what she wants and doesn’t let people get away with treating her less than she deserves. Oh and she’s stubborn and holds a grudge with the best of them.

Aiden was a billionaire who was very committed to his plans and was sure that he knew the best course of action for all things. Oh how I love to see men like that proven wrong. Very, very wrong. That’s why it felt like Zoe was his perfect match as she shook up his ideas, his plans and even when he got what he ultimately wanted, she still managed to give him realisations about his feelings and how deep they were. It was swoonworthy.

And speaking of swoonworthy - there’s obviously all those scrumptious baked goods and treats, and obviously Ms Nicholas is known for her sexy times in her stories. So why not put the two together? It was delicious, dirty and a wee bit sticky - and I loved every minute of it. Having said that, Zoe and Aiden had chemistry whether they were just bantering or between the sheets!

As I mentioned, this is the first in a new series (Hot Cakes) and I’m already invested in the other books still to come. Aiden and Cam’s business partners are bound to get their own stories - in fact Dax is next up with Zoe’s best friend, Jane in Forking Around. But it’s Cam and Whitney’s story that’s already got me shaking with excitement. Second chance enemies to lovers? Oh yes, please!

This is definitely Erin Nicholas back to what she does best - small town love and romance with a huge dollop of sex and baked goods thrown right on the top. I loved it! 5 stars.

I never dreamed I’d meet my celebrity crush while stealing every single pair of my best friend’s pants.

Trust me, my life is not that wild. In fact, the most excitement I usually get is running my fan-favorite Insta thirst account featuring butt-tastic pics of Hollywood superhero Carter Hayes. So, imagine my shock when, in the middle of the cruise ship hallway, I realize the guy whose shirt I'm stuffing slacks inside of is Carter disguised as a tourist. How I manage not to faint dead away, I've got no clue.

When word leaks that Carter might be on board, he asks me to help him maintain his cover. There’s no way I’m gonna say no to that. I just don't share that I’m the anonymous woman behind the fan account that reported sighting him onboard. No biggie. Right?

However, when things between us go from friendly to hot to OMG-I-can’t-keep-my-clothes-on-around-him, all I can do is hope he never discovers my secret. You see, somewhere along the way, Carter went from an untouchable movie star to the man I’m falling for.

Title: Attracting Aubrey
Author: Avery Flynn
Series: Gone Wild Series (Book 3)
Pages: 154
Genre(s): Contemporary, US, Celebrity
Hot Buttons: /

Release Date: 24th March, 2020

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Falling in love with a Hollywood star isn’t really a trope that I often read - I find it all a little far-fetched if I’m honest. But this is Avery Flynn, and in my eyes, she can write any trope - any thing - and I will love it!

And I loved this book!

Five friends are having a reunion of sorts, meeting up for a holiday on a singles cruise. Each friend gets his/her own book - all part of the Gone Wild series. However each book stands completely alone and since there’s no mention of love interests for the other friends in this book - I’m assuming that the events of each of the five books all take place at the same time.

I wasn’t sure if I would Aubrey at first - she was a little sarky and was a little off with Carter, despite the fact she all but stuffed a bunch of trousers down his shorts on their first meeting! But I warmed up to her as she bantered, flirted and fell in love with Carter. The pair had epic chemistry and even the way Aubrey first described Carter (a hot boy scout type she wanted to ruffle up) gave me the happys.

I really enjoyed Carter’s character, too. He’s even got a brother he interacts with in this book and I am a major sucker for any book that includes friendly guy banter - I love it! Despite his celebrity status, Carter was just a normal guy. Okay, no - he was a hot, hunky superhero. The little scene on the flight with the little boy gave me unexpected feels. The perfect hero all round.

I’m also not usually a huge fan of a story that involves someone doing something very wrong and then we just slowly keep reading - waiting for the happiness that our couple are building to come to a crashing end. Now, I’m not saying that I enjoyed it in this book, but it didn’t last long and the rest of the wonderfulness of the rest of the book more than made up for my brief moment of discomfort!

The best thing about Avery’s books is her unique, quirky voice. You can tell that she’s got a wicked sense of humour and that comes across in both her writing and in her characters. They’re both something special and you are guaranteed to laugh, swoon and sigh.

This is exactly the kind of book that I needed - a happy, funny, cute and sexy read that’s realistic but yet just far-fetched enough to transport you right onto that singles cruise and away from reality for a couple of hours. Perfect.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR!

USA Today bestselling romance author Avery Flynn has three slightly-wild children, loves a hockey-addicted husband and is desperately hoping someone invents the coffee IV drip.

She fell in love with romance while reading Johanna Lindsey’s Mallory books. It wasn’t long before Avery had read through all the romance offerings at her local library. Needing a romance fix, she turned to Harlequin’s four books a month home delivery service to ease the withdrawal symptoms. That worked for a short time, but it wasn’t long before the local book stores’ staffs knew her by name.
Avery was a reader before she was a writer and hopes to always be both. She loves to write about smartass alpha heroes who are as good with a quip as they are with their *ahem* other God-given talents. Her heroines are feisty, fierce and fantastic. Brainy and brave, these ladies know how to stand on their own two feet and knock the bad guys off theirs.
