Title: Falling for the Bad Boy by Kennedy Fox

Title: Falling for the Bad Boy
Author: Kennedy Fox
Publication date: 11/2/2017
Stars: 5

Summary: Never trust a man who answers the door wearing nothing more than a pair of low-cut jeans and a panty-melting smirk.

That should've been my first sign.

I write about guys like him for a living—sexy and charming, yet reluctant to get into a serious relationship. His body is the ultimate temptation, but his condescending personality makes him a classic bad boy.

And I want nothing to do with that.

Writing romance novels comes with its perks—traveling, meeting new people, creating characters from the voices in my head—but Ethan Rochester enters my life and rearranges my preconceived notions about writing what inspires you.

Meeting him was fate, but falling for him was inevitable.

And forgetting him will be impossible.

Review: I absolutely love when one of the leads are authors because sometimes there are tiny bits of another book in there which is fun. I loved another one where the lead was a bookstagrammer. I was totally able to relate to that. This book is amazing and full of heart. When you learn about why E has closed off his heart, it breaks yours. I was basically begging for them to get together their wit and fast tongue are perfect for each other. I love that they both have cats and the cats totally remind me of mine. The book flows so smoothly and I read Falling for the Cowboy so quickly, that I can't wait to read what else they come out with next! Thankfully all of the Bed Time Reads are stand alones so there is no particular order to read them in. I only have Falling for the Playboy left but I have many more Kennedy Fox books to go!

Review: Ice Hard by Tracy Goodwin

Title: Ice Hard
Author: Tracy Goodwin
Publisher: Loveswept
Publication date: 10/8/2019
Stars: 3.5

Summary: Hockey’s resident bad boy is hell on skates. But when he falls in love, he falls hard.
 
Nick: As one of the New York Nighthawks, I’ve got it all: fame, success, wealth, plus I’m handsome as hell.
As for my relationships? They could be better.
I know how to do one-night stands, but I’m starting to crave something more.
Then I meet Camille Benetti.
She’s sexy, smart, sarcastic—totally my kind of girl.
The only problem? Cami doesn’t date hockey players.
But she’s never met me. . . .

Cami: Nick George is impossible to resist. Not only is he scorching hot, he’s kind, he’s funny, and he wants me bad.
But I learned my lesson the hard way: no jocks.
So why do I agree to be Nick’s date to the wedding of the year?
One night . . . that’s our deal.
He is the best man, after all.
But Nick is crystal clear about his intentions. He wants a relationship.
And he’s tempting me to break all my rules. . . 

Review:
I have been absolutely addicted to sports romance lately. The start of the book tended to be absurdly repetitive on some stuff but gradually it got better. I love the couple, they are great together. Oh my goodness and her family reminds me of mine. Her issue was really not something that would or should have kept her out of a relationship. Otherwise I wouldn't be in one, honestly it sort of pained me to read on how unrealistic that was. She did grow and learn but still, there are MUCH better ways to write this topic. One moment she's acting like it's not a date the next moment she's jumping down his throat. Same with them falling in love. Even though I literally could not put this book down. I will definitely not read this book again, it could have been written so much better. It honestly had some great details even a re-write could make it better. I loved SO SO many parts of it like the characters and their growth, why she didn't want to date a hockey player, how their relationship went, how STRONG the female lead was. But it definitely needed another run with the edit, I did read a ARC so maybe it was fixed.

Review: A Single Touch by W. Winters

Title: A Single Touch
Author: W. Winters
Series: Irresistible Attraction trilogy
Publication date: June 4th, 2019
Stars: 3.5

Summary: Sometimes you meet someone, maybe meet isn’t the right word. You don’t even have say hello for this to happen. You simply pass by them and everything in your world changes forever. Chills flow all the way from the crook in your neck where you imagine he’d kiss you, all the way down, with only a single glance.
I know you know what I’m referring to. The moment when something inside of you ignites to life, recognizing their other half that’s been gone for far too long.
It burns hot, destroying any hope that it’s only a coincidence, and that life will go back to what it was. These moments are never forgotten.
That’s only with a single glance.
I can tell you what a single touch will do. It will destroy you and everything you thought you knew.
I felt all of this with Jase Cross, every flick of the flames that roared inside of me.
I knew he’d be my downfall, and I was determined to be his just the same.

Review: For me personally this book definitely had it's ups & its downs. I love the series. You could tell the change in the books from the first book through the third book. It didn't have the snippets of the cover less book in this last one. The sex scenes were less and less. It had a good theme about it which I appreciate very much. There is one thing that made me feel like I was losing myself a little bit, I need to re-read the first book. I swore there was a baby that was involved but ended up never getting brought up again. I love the book series but I feel like there where something's that were in the first book that just never continued forward. I cannot wait to be able to read Hard to Love! Seth & Laura are fantastic characters and I was definitely on edge with where that little secret was going. I am so happy they get their own book, plus it leads into more of this madness with Marcus!

Falling for the Playboy - Synopsis

It’s good to be me.

Thanks to my last name, money is no object. According to the ladies, I’m charming.

And if I do say so myself, and I do, I’m good looking too.

I’m used to getting my way. Every. Single. Time. That is until Mallory Wray, a brunette beauty, lands in Hawaii.

Now my new favorite pastime is how to bed the gorgeous co-ed. Again.

…

An escape.

I’ll call it what it is. But there are worse places to spend the next three months than in paradise.

A fresh start without the chill of Colorado or cheating exes is exactly what I need.

No one is going to ruin this for me, especially not gorgeous playboys.

That is until I decide to throw caution to the wind and fall right into Evan Ashford’s bed.

Unlike him, I can’t separate my heart from my head, so I get out before I get hurt. Again.

I thought I left my broken heart on the mainland, but now I’m starting to wonder if Evan can heal it.

Here goes everything . . .

The last three months were the best of my life and now our time together is over too soon. Selfishly, I need more.

I want all of her, which is more than she can give with the distance that divides us.

I don’t want a day without her in it. I can’t sleep a night with her gone. We’re passion on a hot night, fireworks on the fourth,

and more than an undeniable attraction. A pain in my chest won’t subside, so I’m forced to make a choice that will determine the

rest of my life.

Mallory or my family?

Listening to my ego got me into this mess.

Will listening to my heart get me out?
