☆☆☆☆ 3.5 - 4 Stars ☆☆☆☆

Hooked is a standalone Stepbrother Sports Romance. As a debut novel, Iris Parker did a pretty good job.

Hooked is exactly what the title is about. Simon is a British Rugby player who came back to US to make amends with his stepsister. Because when they were just teenagers, Simon was an angry kid that decided to take all his anger out on his stepsister. He lashed out and made Emilia’s life a living hell. For two years Emilia had to put up with his crazy ways, until Simon moved out….Years later when Simon finally grew up to be a decent guy and after keeping tabs on what’s going on in Emilia’s life, he decided to help out the gym that Emilia loved and worked at. Emilia wasn’t open to Simon at all, but when she realized how much Simon had changed… she started to let him in. It didn’t take long for them to spend time together and turned their friendship into something more. But will Emilia really get over their past and give what they have going a try? Read and find out.

This was a simple Stepbrother romance, that will either hook a reader or leave them confused. As much as I enjoyed the way Simon and Emilia got together, I was left a little confused with the Simon’s diary entries that I wasn’t even sure was a diary entry at first. It took me a little while to figure one what the diary entries were about, because they weren’t added in date order. I did however enjoy the sweet man that Simon had become and how much he cared for Emilia. Emilia was a forgiving woman and these two just belonged together, how matter what anybody say. If you love stepbrother romance this could be your book.

Reid Travers is my new book boyfriend!!!!!! I absolutely loved Throttled by Elizabeth Lee. I have only read three books from this author and she has managed to get me addicted and hooked to her books!!! Elizabeth Lee, you have officially put yourself on my #oneclick authors.

Throttled was one of the sweetest and emotionally charged second chance romance done right!! I am a big fan of second chance romance trope and Ms. Lee has beautifully executed this in Throttled. I practically inhaled this book in one sitting and couldn't get enough of Reid Travers and wanted more. I love a book that can leave you with the warm fuzzy feeling and Throttled did just that.

#throttled

It's been seven years since Reid Travers returned back to his hometown in Illinois when he left to pursue a professional career in motor-cross. Being back home in his family's property brought back all the memories of his childhood and of course the one person he couldn't forget. Nora Bennett was and is still the only woman who owned his heart and soul. There was only thing that he regretted and that was how he ended things with Nora.

"How exactly do you fight for a girl who keeps running away from you? You go to her."

Nora Bennett was devastated when Reid Travers broke her heart seven years ago when he decided to pack up and move to Texas to pursue his professional career. So when fate reunites them back, Nora didn't expect these buried feelings to resurface. As much as she wanted to hate him, she knew deep down, Reid was always the one. The one who ignited passion, love, and made her feel so much more. Although Reid hurt her when he left, she didn't expect Reid to fight for her. When Reid saw that Nora still loved him, he knew he had to fight for his second chance to make it right. His second chance was within grasp and nothing can throttle his chance to get the woman he loves.

#throttled2

Reid and Nora's second chance at love was breathtakingly emotional and yet beautiful. I loved that after all these years, they still had the passion and love that couldn't be extinguished. Their love was something that runs deeps and was the soul-mate kind of love. A love worth fighting for. A love that reminds us all to never give up on someone you can't go a day without thinking about. So if you want to know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders. And Reid and Nora had that kind of love. An unforgettable kind of love. A love that was so palpable and tangible.

#Throttled1

Ms. Lee writes a beautiful, poignant and touching story of second chances that reminds us all sometimes we can't let go because in the back of our minds, we still believe that someday we'll get our second chance. All there is left to say is go read Throttled because this book had every element of what I love in romance novels. If you are fan of second chances, forgiveness, and happily ever afters then this book is for you!!!

If you don't know by know, I am obsessed with Sawyer Bennett and her books. She has seriously become of the those authors that I **ahem** stalk for upcoming new releases. And when I knew Ryker was getting a book, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Okay, before I started Ryker's book, I loved ZACK since he started my Sawyer Bennett obsession but after reading Ryker, I have to say that I am torn because Ryker gave Zack a run for his money.

#Ryker_Sawyer


Cold Fury's goalie Ryker Evans has two important goals that he wanted to accomplish. First, he wanted to give his team a chance to win the Cup and the second most important job is raising his two daughters. As a single father, his life was consumed with training, hockey, and his girls. His personal life was non-existent after him and his wife are in the process of a divorce.

Grayson Brannon is the new GM of Cold Fury. Her new positions has caused a stirred within the sports industry since people began questioning if she could be a GM in a male dominant sport and also of her analytical method of stats. On her first day job as GM, she instantly knew she had one supporter besides her father and that was Ryker Evans.

#Ryker2

From the first moment, Grayson felt a kinship Ryker and likewise with him. Instantly, it didn't take long for them to form a friendship and a bond. Soon Ryker and Gray found themselves crossing the lines of employer and employee. Sparks of attractions and passion ignited such a fierce connection that they couldn't deny but they knew that they had to keep their relationship a secret since people would think she had favoritism. This secretive relationship was taking a tolll on their relationship since both of them wanted to be a normal couple. So when someone discovers their relationship, will Ryker's position be in jeopardy? And how will the public react and perceive Grayson's standing as GM?

Gray has to be hands down one of my favorite Sawyer Bennett's heroine. I might have a girl crush on her. Right off the opening pages, I fell in loved with her character. She had it all from beauty and brains. And to top it off, she had one of the most generous and beautiful hearts that I loved. She never played favoritism and did what was always best for her hockey team. And as for Ryker, he was just perfect. He was sweet, caring, understanding, patient, and a dirty-talker. I loved that this man took time to learn how to braid his daughter's hair. That alone, be still my beating my heart.

#Ryker1

What can I say but I absolutely loved Ryker and Grey's relationship. I loved these two hard!!! As much as I loved Zack and Kate's story,Ryker and Gray's relationship made my heart flutter and race. I loved the deep connection and respect they had for each other. And to top it off, I love love how Ryker can be sweet and a dirty-talker all in a blink of an eye. But what made me fall in love with this book was that there was no long drawn out conflict or drama. The book just flowed at a perfect pace that reflected this couple.

So if you are a fan of office and single father romance then I highly recommend you to read this book!!! Be prepared to fall in love with Ryker and Gray as they embark and take you on a winning sweet contemporary romance!!!!

When I started Ryker, I didn’t expect much from it and out of all the guys Zack was my favorite, but after reading Ryker I’m not so sure anymore. Zack and Ryker are best buds and it’s really hard to pick which one is best. What I do love most about Ryker is he never plays, when he cares for someone he gives that person his all plus more. When his attraction for his new General Manager Gray Brannon can no longer be ignored, he acted on it and made it clear to her that he doesn’t do flings, that what was about to happen with them will be so much more. As Ryker and Gray’s new relationship starts, they are forced to keep it a secret. Gray being the new General Manager, it doesn’t look good for her to be in a relationship with one of the hockey players. Ryker never cared for secrets, he wanted to let everyone know who Gray belonged to..but for Gray he kept what they had a secret. Their relationship was hot and sexy behind closed doors, but in front of everyone they were just friends. Then there’s Ryker’s cheating ex-wife trying to make advances on him and threatening their relationship. How much can they take before they give up on the love they could have?

This was a real treat to read from the beginning to end. Ryker stayed real throughout the whole book, he was the man of his words and his heart. Also a great father to his daughters that adored him. This was a really sexy and sweet read and I enjoyed every page of it. Love it.
