Undressing the Billionaire
This book is a mess. It is scattered and hard to read. The characters are so unlikeable.
Gabrielle meets a billionaire. She tells herself she doesn’t care about his money, but all she thinks about is his car, his nice house, how much money he has. At one point he tells her he isn’t a billionaire any longer but will be again by the end of the year. At first she almost worries because he isn’t a billionaire any longer. On top of it, she is disappointed when he shows up to meet her in a Shelby Mustang. She’s irritated that he only has a Mustang, and then when she says she’s thirsty, he tells her there are drinks in the cooling unit and she thinks to herself, “well of course he would have something as useless as that in his expensive car.” She can’t make up her mind about whether she wants his money or not.
She visits her father one day and decides she needs to tell Ric the truth, that she isn’t pregnant. Instead of going to him or waiting to see him again, she texts him and tells him what street she is on, sitting in her car. So, he’s supposed to drop everything and meet her during the middle of the day? What??? She was worried about him not being a billionaire and then she wants him to leave work?
At one point, having sex in his car, he reaches for his belt,
“Let me,” she breathed.
Ric smiled and leaned back. Gabrielle loosened the belt, noticing that it was genuine leather…”
Why wouldn’t it be genuine leather? This is page 115 of 145! Seriously, Gabrielle is the most shallow, unlikeable woman.
Ric is an unlikeable ass. He throws money around like it’s no big deal. No wonder he isn’t a billionaire anymore! One night they have sex, he gets up the next morning and leaves a check on her dresser. Um, hello!!!! Prostitution much?
At one point they are at his house and he has on a robe. She wonders if he’s naked under the robe. Three paragraphs and some very clunky conversation later, he opens his robe as he is kissing her and she says she hears him unzipping his pants. I thought she wondered if he was naked. Didn’t she see is pant legs? They quickly have sex on the kitchen table and he pulls his shirt on. What happened to the robe and where did the shirt come from?
The story has an interesting premise, but the stilted writing and unlikeable characters make me feel like I don’t really care.

Book Trailer is up
I just posted my book trailer for Second Chances in my videos here on Goodreads. Take and look and let me know what you think.
Betrayal by P.A. Jones
DNF - This book has far too many errors to read. The conversations between the two characters, Gavin and Emma is stilted and awkward. So many sentences that just do not make sense, "I asked you for drinks, not you." What???? This book needs to be edited.
Release Me by J. Kenner
Release Me by J. KennerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I really liked this book, actually the whole series. At first glance you can see the similarities with FSoG, but who doesn't dream of a hot, hot, hot bazillionaire that has a single minded purpose to have the woman that intrigues him? While he has his own demons to slay, so does Nikki. They help each other slay those demons together, each focusing on the other while at the same time, walking through the fire that has held them back for so long. Excellent story. Sizzling sex scenes. Great story line. I recommend this whole series to anyone that wants to read a book that will stay with them long after the last page has been read.

Sweet Dreams by Kristen Ashley
Sweet Dreams by Kristen AshleyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a great book to read. Tate is a delicious biker with a no holds barred attitude. Lauren is not a biker, with more polish. The two start out at odds with each other and end up in love. I couldn't put this book down.

Anything He Wants by Sara Fawkes
I really liked this book and enjoyed the story, characters and plot. Waiting to read the next in the series. Anything He Wants
Conversion by S.C. Stephens
I absolutely love S.C. Stephens' writing style. Her characters are well thought out. Her storylines are absolutely the best and the way she puts a story together leaves me breathless. Can't wait to read the rest of the series. Thank you S.C. Stephens for your beautiful stories.
Surrender to Love by J.C. Valentine
I received this book for free for an honest review.
4.5 Stars
Surrender to Love - J.C. Valentine
Great story. Patricia has decided to forego men for her car! Or at least tinkering and taking a break from men. Jon, well women throw themselves at him, so no reason to look around. Their meeting is chance, their love HOT!
