Blog Tour: Unwrapping The Best Man By Rachael Stewart*

 

'She's spicing up Christmas

…starting with the best man!

After lusting after brawny, gorgeous Jackson Black for six years – Caitlin’s craving is finally satisfied on the deliciously naughty night of their best friends’ wedding. But just as Cait thinks she's broken through Jackson's fiercely-guarded defenses, he leaves during the night. Now Cait's ready to play dirty. Because the only thing worse than a sexy Grinch stealing your heart is if he breaks it…'

This is the latest book by the amazing Rachael Stewart and it certainly does not disappoint. This book is actually connected to one of her others by the name of Getting Dirty, check out my review HERE. This book follows Jackson and Caitlin, their story is told over 14 Chapters (+Epilogue) and what a story it is. 

One thing readers need to know about this book is that the sexual chemistry that these two characters have is off the charts. I mean Jackson and Caitlin have some serious chemistry and the sexy scenes that we all know and love are on a level of their own. Jackson can be described as tattooed and hot with a bit of a mysterious past. Whereas Caitlin is gorgeous, firery, family loving and possibly insecure. 

Now the book is not just full of the oh so sexy scenes, it also is full of Character interactions that can be described as on point. It does switch point of views between Jackson and Caitlin, which gives the reader an insight into how both characters are really feeling during the interactions. The reader also gets to see Coco and Ash again as they are a part of this story.  However it does not leave the reader confused if they have not read the first book.

So let me tell you about the Author Rachael Stewart, she adores conjuring up stories for both Mills & Boon and Deep Desires Press. The books vary from heart-warmingly romantic to wildly erotic. Rachael is living her own dream of being a full time writer, even though her degree was in Business Studies and she spent many years in the corporate world. Originally from Wales, Rachael now lives in Yorkshire with her husband and three children. When she isn't wrapped up in her children, you can find her glued to her laptop or enjoying the great outdoors seeking inspiration. 

Overall this book is just as brilliant as you would expect from Rachael. It goes from lip biting sexy scenes to possible tears, as this will get your emotions involved. Though I feel like warning future readers that once you start this book you will not want to put it down. Readers will most likely finish this book in one sitting because it is that addicting.

Blog Tour: A Little Christmas Hope By Kathryn Freeman*

 

'Newly promoted head teacher Anna Dalton needs a Christmas miracle – and fast! After years of sitting through excruciatingly dull Christmas productions, complete with crying children and sleeping parents, she’s determined Riddlescomb Primary School will put on a Nativity to remember. 

Enter bad boy actor Dan Ramsey, recently axed from the lead role in a TV drama and in desperate need of cleaning up his image or he’ll never work again.  

Dan can flash those heart-stopping dimples all he likes, Anna tells herself she isn’t going to fall for them. She knows why he’s decided to volunteer at the school, and it’s for the good of his bank balance…not his soul. 

But as Anna and Dan are forced to work together for the sake of a truly magical Christmas for the children, sparks fly and they can’t help but wonder what will happen once the festive season is over…'

This story is the 3rd book in the 'Christmas Wishes' Series, now although this is part of a series it can be read as a stand alone which is what I did. It consists of 30 Chapters (and an Epilogue), and tells the story of Anna and Dan. One of the first things you will notice in this book is the instant chemistry that our main characters have. However the characters themselves could not be more different. 

One thing to know about this book is that it does jump in time, however it is done in a way where the reader isn't left feeling like they have missed something. It is also done in a very clear way, where the reader knows when it happens and how big of a jump it is. 

This book is full of giggle worthy moments that will leave the reader giggling out loud to themselves. Not only is this book full of moments that will leave the reader giggling, it is also filled with those soppy, romantic moments that we all love. This reads as a perfect Christmas read to snuggle up under a blanket, with a hot drink losing yourself in. 

What is brilliant with this book and links it with the others in the series is that you meet Gabby and Faith, both of which have their own books. Gabby and Faith are the first two stories in this series and when they are introduced in this book it is done in a way where the reader doesn't feel like they have missed anything if they have not read the first two books. 

Now let's talk about the Author, Kathryn Freeman is a former Pharmacist, now medical writer who also writes Romance. She can go from a racing heart due to a medical condition to the cause being a hunky hero. She lives with her husband and two teenage boys. Her husband may not be the most  romantic man around valentines day but his unstinting support about her career change proves love isn't just about Hearts and Flowers and heroes come in many disguises. 

Overall I absolutely loved this story as well as the chemistry between Anna and Dan. This story has left me wanting to read the other two books in this series. I guarantee that they will both be added to my 'To Buy' list. You can get your copy HERE

Blog Tour: Just A Girl By Becky Monson*

 

'What happens when the right girl and the right guy meet at the wrong time?

One thing that can be said about Quinn Pearson is that she has a knack for doing the wrong thing at the wrong time. Like, the worst time ever. Take her job for instance. One little slip of the tongue using the mother of all swear words while reporting the news, and suddenly she finds herself with over 18 million views on YouTube and her employment in jeopardy. If that wasn’t bad enough, when she meets the man of her dreams, she nearly chokes to death on a powdered sugar donut.

Thankfully for Quinn, the dashing Brit, Henry, finds her near death experience quite charming. But just when Quinn thinks her luck is going to change, she finds out her timing is all wrong again. Henry is off limits. Or is he? Maybe it’s time for Quinn to quit settling for what life hands her. Perhaps it's time for her to become more than just a girl.'

This is the story of Quinn and Henry and what a story it is full of relatable characters from the off set and choc full of moments that will have the reader falling in love. Their story is told over 26 Chapters (+Epilogue) and is actually the second book in the 'Just a' Series, even though the books can be read as standalones, there is a high possibility that the reader will find themselves wanting the first book. 

The characters themselves are very much someone that the reader can relate to. Not only that the main characters first meeting is funny and some thing that the reader will no doubt find completely relatable. When it comes to Quinn's interactions with her friends and family they can be described simply as brilliant. 

This entire book is choc full of moments that are funny and other moments that are sure to get the readers emotions involved. The reader will easily find themselves absorbed into this book to the point that they may have difficulty putting it down. The main reason readers will find themselves hooked is the basis of this book that is Quinn and Henry's love story and whether these two will end up together. 

Now let me tell you about the Author Becky Monson who is a mother to three young children. At night she escapes by writing and reading books. She is an award-winning author, who use humor and true-life experiences to bring her characters to life. She wishes she had a British accent and loves all things chick- lit. Recently she gave up Diet Coke for the fiftieth time and is hoping this time will last...but it probably won't.

Overall I really enjoyed this book and other readers will adore the relatable funny moments that this book is full of. Not only that, there is also an underlying theme in the book not just about finding love but about accepting yourself exactly as you are. This theme is present throughout the book and is something that we can all relate to. You can get your copy HERE.

Blog Tour: Blue Skies By Alana Oxford*

 

'Life isn't always a walk in the park, but when Patrice takes her Pomeranians to the park after a rough day at the office, fate steps in. An unlikely hero comes to the rescue when one of her dogs gets loose. Short, pale, and kind of cute, Seth doesn't have a lot of confidence with the ladies, but he hits it off with Patrice.'

The story of Patrice and Seth is told over 5 chapters although short, this story is the epitome of short but sweet. From the moment the two first meet, their path to love is not smooth but it definitely funny. The entire story is full of funny moments that will leave the reader laughing. 

When it comes to the characters the Author certainly created some that were very relatable. This reader found Patrice very relatable and I am sure others will too. The Pomeranians are described in such a way that the reader will be able to picture the little balls of fluff, as they interact with the other characters. Now the main male character Seth is brilliant and very down to earth. He is very sweet in this book and from the image this reader got, cute too. 

Both characters make a brilliant first impression on the both the reader and each other. This story is choc full of funny and embarrassing moments that the readers will love. This is a great story and can easily be read in one sitting. 

Now let me tell you about the Author Alana Oxford, she is a Michigan author of romcoms, sweet romance and humorous women's fiction. Alana's aim is for her stories to bring sunshine and smiles to her readers. Alana enjoys improv comedy, moody music everything book related and has an ongoing love affair with the United Kingdom. 

Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and it has left me wanting more from the author. This was indeed a delightful romcom that all readers can enjoy, with a main male character who can easily be described as cute, nerdy and adorable. I will definitely be keeping my eye open for other books by this Author. You can buy your copy HERE.

Until Next Time
