SYNOPSIS
Amber Jones is in a pickle. And when I say pickle, I mean deep do-do. She knew she shouldn’t have gone to her ex’s New Year’s Eve party. And she reeeaally didn’t mean to almost burn down his house. It was the chafing dish’s fault, dang it! Now she needs a good lawyer, stat. But where to find one? All work and no play make Ethan Vaughn a very sad and lonely lawyer. Not to mention horny. He really shouldn’t have agreed to help his best friend’s wife’s bestie with her imbroglio. Now she’s remanded on bail––and living in his house. The woman is a walking, talking category five hurricane. And considering his track record with women, he needs to stay as far away from this one as possible. Problem is, he just can’t seem to make himself.
REVIEW
I loved the first book by Dangelico. In fact, I went on and on about that book and couldn't give enough stars. This book, however, had me shaking my head and scratching it at the same time. Don't get me wrong...I LOVED the characters and the premise. I even loved the story that was told, but I didn't love the inconsistencies of the characters of Ethan and Amber. There were some sex scenes in this once they started having sex at like 70% but then they didn't really add up to the characters. Ethan turned into a kinky dude who was demanding? I just see it. Amber, I could see being that way and being demanding, but Ethan....just no. I loved this book - don't get me wrong. I just didn't love it as much as the first book. I hope that it also has several rounds of editing before it goes to press. I didn't take off anything for that because I know when you're given an ARC you're agreeing that it's not proofed and this book needed it...with a red marker. What I love about the author is her sense of humor and her one-liners because some of them are abso-freaking-lutely hilarious!!! Overall, this book for me was worth the time and effort and I will automatically have this author on my TBR list right at the top!!!
I was given an ARC from the publisher/author/NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own and do not reflect anyone else's.

Cam DeSantis’ life is a hot, steaming pile. How else would you describe losing your husband, your job, and your money all at once? Desperate times call for desperate measures, so when salvation comes in the form of one intolerable a-hole, who just happens to be the starting quarterback for the vaunted NY Titans, she has no choice but to accept his offer as a live-in nanny slash teacher for his eight year old nephew. Now all she has to do is find a safe place in her mind to hide whenever she feels the need to throat punch him into tomorrow…which is often.Calvin Shaw has zero interest in women. Wait, wait––let me rephrase that. He loves women, he just doesn’t want anything to do with ‘um. Not since his wife, presently ex-wife, got knocked up by the guy she was cheating on him with. Problem is––there’s one living in his house. And he doesn’t know what’s worse, that he promised to be civil, or that he’s attracted to her.
About P. DangelicoP. Dangelico loves romance in all forms, shapes, and sizes, cuddly creatures (four legged and two), really bloody sexy pulp, the NY Jets (although she’s reconsidering after this season), and to while away the day at the barn (apparently she does her best thinking shoveling horse crap). What she’s not enamored with is referring to herself in the third person and social media so don’t expect her to get on Twitter anytime soon. Oh, and although she was born in Italy, she’s been Jersey Strong since she turned six.

Title: Pitch PleaseSeries: There's No Crying in Baseball ...
Title: Pitch PleaseSeries: There's No Crying in Baseball Author: Lani Lynn ValeGenre: Sports RomanceRelease Date: September 8, 2017
Baseball is life, the rest is just details.
Everyone who’s played the game has heard those words a time or two. But Hancock has heard them his entire life from his parents. His family has lived and breathed baseball even before he started little league. Hancock “Parts” Peters has a name that inspires grins across many faces, but the moment those faces get their first look at him, those grins slide away. Hancock is gruff, filterless, and doesn’t give a crap who he offends. He is the only man in baseball who doesn’t care if he gets an endorsement or not. He’s there to play the game. He’s there to win. He’s there because baseball is his life. People think he’s a jerk. And maybe he is. But if that’s how he has to come off to get people to leave him the hell alone so he can play in peace, so be it. The less people he has to worry about offending, the better. ***
Don’t let the fear of striking out hold you back.
Sway Coffman didn’t mean to rock the boat. She was just there to do her job. Sure, she was a woman in a man’s world. Yes, she beat out several of those men to get the job as head athletic trainer for the professional baseball team, The Texas Lumberjacks. And yeah, she now got hate mail from those men. But she’s good at her job, and she earned the position. What she is not good at, however, is talking to men. Men seem to see her curvy hips, large breasts and thick thighs and automatically think she is incompetent. Because surely a fat girl couldn’t get the job treating some of the most fit and athletic men in the world, right? Wrong. This fat girl got the job, and she is proud of it. What else did she get? The attention of the sexiest bearded man she’d ever had the pleasure of laying eyes on. It was enough to bring to her down to her knees…in front of that man, the hot and grumpy baseball player, Hancock Peters.
I didn't think that Lani Lynn Vale could do Baseball as well as she could do MC romances but boy was I WRONG!!! She hit it out of the park. She got a home run on this one. Pitch please reminded me of the show with Mark Paul Gosselaar where he played a Catcher in Pitch and I LOVED every second of it. It had an Alpha male that was to die for....a strong female who knew her baseball - because after all, her brother was also a player and then because she also had a Fathead of Hancock "Parts" Peters in her spare room. Sway was a little different, but also a lot like other heroines in the author's books. She's strong, independent and funny. She's got baggage in the way of a vengeful ex. She's a little on the overweight side, but who cares when a giant six foot five behemoth of a baseball player wants you. I found Hancock to be a sweetheart under his superstitions and rituals because if you every knew a real ball player - they have those!!! I think next I want the author to tackle Hockey because she'd rock at that. What were a couple of things I loved about this:
1. The author was out of her wheelhouse and did a really great job of it.
2. We learned about the intricacies of baseball and the behind the scenes.
3. Hancock has a brother and we need more of him.
4. Maybe we know who he is already...hmmm?
5. The author has proven she can write ANYTHING and I will meet her one day and buy them ALL!
6. Bring on more!!!
Again, if you love Baseball and Alpha hero's - you'll love Sway because even though she's not one for confrontation...she's a kickass heroine and the author did her justice. The same with Hancock - She made this character likable and lickable...just saying!!! Buy the first and last season of Pitch and binge while you read this book....sooooo goood!!!!

Delia: I fell asleep thinking of you.Zach: Please tell me we’re about to sext.Delia: The moment I woke up, I ran my hand down my chest between my bountiful breasts.

Meet Gabe in Jacob’s Ladder - A new rock star romance from Katie Ashley releasing this fall!Add Jacob’s Ladder: Gabe to your TBR: http://bit.ly/2eKxkZN
Full BlurbAs the lead songwriter for Jacob’s Ladder, the last thing Gabe Renard needs is a debilitating case of writer’s block. After years of meaningless one night stands, he's finding it hard to pen the love-filled ballads the label is requesting. In an effort to clear his mind, Gabe takes his jeep off-roading in the North Georgia Mountains. When a wrong-turn leads to him getting stuck more than just creatively, he’s forced to call for help. To his surprise, the “Ray” who has been sent by Hart Wreckers to his aid is actually “Rae”—a sexy-as-hell spitfire in a pair of tight-as-hell jeans. The combination of Rae’s sassy mouth and rocking body might be the inspiration Gabe needs. But for the first time since becoming a rock star, his advances have been shot down.
Reagan Hart has never been a fan of musicians. In fact, just the mention of one might cause her to throw a tire tool. Her disgust for them started when she was just eight and her mother ran off with a traveling country singer, and it only worsened when at seventeen, her rocker boyfriend knocked her up before blowing out of town. As a single mother taking care of her family's collision business, Rae doesn't have time for hook ups, much less a relationship. And if she did make time, a musician would be last on her list, even one as good-looking as Gabe Renard.
Can Gabe find the words to prove not only to Rae, but himself, that she’s the only one for him?About the Author

EXCERPT
Her shoulders ached, and her feet were sore, but for the first time in days, she hadn’t been worrying about Robby non-stop. Finn’s suggestion that she go back to work had been spot on, the distraction a welcome change from sitting in the hospital. April stuck her head in as Skye started on the second half of the over-stuffed sandwich. The senior waitress had been there for years and had taught her the tricks of the trade. “Got a new customer on the far-right table. Just came in.” Skye put her hand to her mouth as she swallowed. “I’m on break. Can you cover?”“I would, but he asked for you by name. Told him you weren’t available, and he said whenever you were ready, he’d be. Good looking man. You been holding out on me?” The older woman laughed and turned away before Skye could say anything.She finished her sandwich in record time and headed back out to the front.Finn sat at the corner table, smiling as he scanned the menu.“What are you doing here?” she whispered as she pulled out her notepad and pen.“I do need to eat.” He raised one eyebrow. “I guess you already had dinner.”“What?” She shook her head, trying to wrap her mind around his arrival.He leaned forward and swiped his thumb over the edge of her mouth. “I said, I guess you’ve already eaten.”The soft brush on her skin sent a tremor through her body. She gripped the pen so hard she was afraid she’d snap it in half.Finn sat down again, licking the mayo off his thumb. “Yum. Can I get an order of whatever you just had?”She forced herself to scowl. “Aren’t you supposed to be out doing some sort of work?”“I did. And I am.” He placed his cell phone on the table and stroked the screen. “There’s an app for that.” He spun it around for her to see.Skye looked at the digital display. “What’s that?”“The gang’s clubhouse. To be precise, the front of it.” Finn let her study it for a moment before tucking the phone away. “It’s a video feed to see if they bring any of their shipments inside their hideout. I doubt it, but we’re watching all the same.”“How did you do that?” She was half horrified he’d taken such a risk and half thrilled he’d managed to do it.“Trey has some nice toys, and he lets me use them every once in a while. Me, I’m more of a hands-on man. Not that there’s anything wrong with toys…” He paused, just long enough to set her imagination on fire. “Now what would you suggest I eat?” He picked up the menu, seemingly oblivious to the tease he’d tossed out. “I’m craving something delicious. Your recommendations?”She closed her eyes, feeling heat burn her cheeks.

REVIEWWhen Skye Harris shows up on the Devil's Playground's doorstep asking the Brotherhood for help with a gang taking over her hometown, it's time for Finn Storm to step up.
The bikers might be tough but he's tougher – and armed with Brotherhood tech and a warrior's heart he's going to get the job done, no matter what or who stands in his way.
The one weak spot in his plan is in his heart––Skye gets under his skin like no other woman has and she's not going to let him take all the danger on his shoulders alone. But when she's caught in the crossfire Finn has to decide whether to follow his heart or his carefully crafted plan to not only clean up the town but heal his soul.
This was a very fast paced, on the go book. Kind of kept you on the edge of your seat and didn't let go. For fans of Suzanne Brockmann, I would say that you'd love this book. It was deep when you needed it to be and light when you wanted it to be. My favorite line of all was:
"I'm going to kill a man for you."
Well, who wouldn't swoon at that. I sure would and did!!! Skye was a unicorn heroine and Finn just nailed it as an Alpha hero. Together they were perfect! This is a book I'll definitely read more than once.
I was given an ARC from the publisher/author/NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own and do not reflect anyone else's.

ADD TO YOUR TBR → http://bit.ly/2utq2Aq
HERE'S THE SNEAK-PEEK FROM A.M. & ALEX:
“D’you mind if I sit?” I ask gently. I want her to feel like she has control. If she asked me to leave, I would. I need her to trust me enough to open up. I already assumed it’d be hard, but two seconds in her room is enough to tell it’s going to be a mountain of a task.
The girl gives one short, sharp bob of her head, and I scan the room for a safe place to sit. A lone chair set by her window has a white plastic seat and metal legs. It looks uncomfortable as hell for a piece of furniture in a hospital room, but it’ll do. Forcing myself to go slow, I cross the room and drop my ass into it. I drop my elbows to my knees and lean forward, clasping my hands together.
“I’m Niko.” She doesn’t respond. By her stare and the steady rise and fall of her shoulders, I’d guess she’s concentrating on breathing. “I thought we could talk. Is that okay with you?”
She nods again.
“Can I get you something to drink?” This time, she gives a punctuated shake. Okay, so she’s good with using nonverbal communication. That’s a start at least. I can work with yes-or- no questions.
“Do you know where you are?”
Her gaze flits to the open door and the hall beyond. Once again, I’m left staring at the state of disfigurement this woman has been left in. It’s obvious these are signs of abuse, but from who? Her pimp? Was she attacked for trying to leave that life? A victim of domestic violence? Could she be connected to the person who took Rebecca?
I don’t realize I’m staring until she shakes her head again, and the movement pulls me from my thoughts. I trail my eyes over her wounds again, and the sight makes me sick. I grind my back molars together to get ahold of myself. Once I feel calm, I ask another question.
“Do you know your name?”
She shakes her head. Damn. I try a different route. “Do you know how you got all these cuts?”At my words, she glances down at her arms. She runs her right index finger over a spot of dried blood on her right thigh. “Yes,” she croaks in a quiet voice that startles me.
“Can you tell me how?”
“All of them.” She goes on as if I didn’t speak.
I try to keep my expression neutral but I’m confused. “All of them? What do you mean?”
“I know how I got all of them.” She faces me with a blank stare. “I remember them all.” The sound of her voice sends a shiver down my spine. Monotone and quiet, it reminds me of nothing. That void of hopelessness. Of no going back.
“Who did this to you?” I prod gently.
She shakes her head again, and my stomach sinks. “I can’t remember. I remember the shadow man and the screaming girl. And the pain,” she goes on in a hollow voice. “I remember being hurt, but not who did it. I think… I think I did it.”

HERE'S THE SNEAK-PEEK FROM A.M. & ALEX:“D’you mind if I sit?” I ask gently. I want her to feel like she has control. If she asked me to leave, I would. I need her to trust me enough to open up. I already assumed it’d be hard, but two seconds in her room is enough to tell it’s going to be a mountain of a task.
The girl gives one short, sharp bob of her head, and I scan the room for a safe place to sit. A lone chair set by her window has a white plastic seat and metal legs. It looks uncomfortable as hell for a piece of furniture in a hospital room, but it’ll do. Forcing myself to go slow, I cross the room and drop my ass into it. I drop my elbows to my knees and lean forward, clasping my hands together.
“I’m Niko.” She doesn’t respond. By her stare and the steady rise and fall of her shoulders, I’d guess she’s concentrating on breathing. “I thought we could talk. Is that okay with you?”
She nods again.
“Can I get you something to drink?” This time, she gives a punctuated shake. Okay, so she’s good with using nonverbal communication. That’s a start at least. I can work with yes-or- no questions.
“Do you know where you are?”
Her gaze flits to the open door and the hall beyond. Once again, I’m left staring at the state of disfigurement this woman has been left in. It’s obvious these are signs of abuse, but from who? Her pimp? Was she attacked for trying to leave that life? A victim of domestic violence? Could she be connected to the person who took Rebecca?
I don’t realize I’m staring until she shakes her head again, and the movement pulls me from my thoughts. I trail my eyes over her wounds again, and the sight makes me sick. I grind my back molars together to get ahold of myself. Once I feel calm, I ask another question.
“Do you know your name?”
She shakes her head. Damn. I try a different route. “Do you know how you got all these cuts?”At my words, she glances down at her arms. She runs her right index finger over a spot of dried blood on her right thigh. “Yes,” she croaks in a quiet voice that startles me.
“Can you tell me how?”
“All of them.” She goes on as if I didn’t speak.
I try to keep my expression neutral but I’m confused. “All of them? What do you mean?”
“I know how I got all of them.” She faces me with a blank stare. “I remember them all.” The sound of her voice sends a shiver down my spine. Monotone and quiet, it reminds me of nothing. That void of hopelessness. Of no going back.
“Who did this to you?” I prod gently.
She shakes her head again, and my stomach sinks. “I can’t remember. I remember the shadow man and the screaming girl. And the pain,” she goes on in a hollow voice. “I remember being hurt, but not who did it. I think… I think I did it.”
