Wingman rule number two: never reveal how much you want them.Lex hates Gabi. Gabi hates Lex. But, hey, at least the hate is mutual, right? All Lex has to do is survive the next few weeks training Gabi in all the ways of Wingmen Inc. and then he can be done with her. But now that they have to work together, the sexual tension and fighting is off the charts. He isn’t sure if he wants to strangle her or throw her against the nearest sturdy table and have his way with her.But Gabi has a secret, something she’s keeping from not just her best friend but her nemesis too. Lines are blurred as Lex becomes less the villain she’s always painted him to be…and starts turning into something more. Gabi has always hated the way she’s been just a little bit attracted to him—no computer-science major should have that nice of a body or look that good in glasses—but “Lex Luthor” is an evil womanizer. He’s dangerous. Gabi should stay far, far away.Then again, she’s always wanted a little danger.

excerpt || FATAL IDENTITY { review & excerpt tour } by Marie Force
Sam and Nick return in the stunning romantic suspense, FATAL IDENTITY, that is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat! FATAL IDENTITY is the tenth novel in Marie Force’s Fatal Series being published by HarlequinHQN. Check out all the stops on the tour below, and make sure you order your copy today!
As the first anniversary of her marriage to Vice President Nick Cappuano approaches, Lieutenant Sam Holland is dreaming of Bora Bora—sun, sand and a desperately needed break from the DC grind. But real life has a way of intervening, and Sam soon finds herself taking on one of the most perplexing cases of her career.
Government worker Josh Hamilton begs Sam to investigate his shocking claim that his parents stole him from another family thirty years ago. More complicated still, his “father” is none other than the FBI director. When a member of Josh’s family is brutally murdered, Sam begins to question how deep this cover-up goes. Is it possible the revered director was part of a baby-napping ring and that others involved are also targets?
With a killer intent on deadly revenge and her team still reeling from a devastating loss, Sam’s plate is full—and when Nick and their son, Scotty, take ill, is her dream of a tropical anniversary celebration in peril too?

Trent Carrington.
Trent Mr. Perfect-Has-Everyone-Fooled Carrington.
He’s the star quarterback, university scholar, and happens to be the sexiest man I’ve ever seen. He shines at any angle, and especially under the Saturday night stadium lights where I watch him from the sidelines. But I know the real him, the one who broke my heart and pretended I didn’t exist for the past two years.
I’m the third-string kicker, the only woman on the team and nothing better than a mascot. Until I’m not. Until I get my chance to earn a full scholarship and join the team as first-string. The only way I'll make the cut is to accept help from the one man I swore to never trust again. The problem is, with each stolen glance and lingering touch, I begin to realizing that trusting Trent isn’t the problem. It’s that I can’t trust myself when I’m around him.
This is a full-length, standalone American football romance novel with hot guys in tight pants who really know how to handle their balls.

Review Update || week of July 25
The last few weeks have been a bit of a downfall for me when it comes to reading. I have had to force myself to read books I volunteered to tour with.
That said (and I will email each company I've signed up to tour with), many of my posts this week that were supposed to be reviews, will simply be promos. I will have the books reviewed, by the weekend is my goal. I know how important reviews are for the author, and it kills me that I volunteered for this schedule and I have to break my commitments.
Thank you for understanding.

When we read Sinner's Steel, we all thought T-Rex died. We watched as the club went to look for him; we watched as his best friend Tank refused to believe he was gone; we watched as they laid T-Rex to rest.
Well he's not dead.
And he's pissed at the betrayal of the men he once considered his brothers.
For three long, harrowing months, he's been locked in Viper's dungeon and has been beaten mercilessly. He held on to his secrets until he couldn't any longer, and still, he was beaten again and again. Until finally he was left for dead.
Naiya was once offered to Viper by her own mother. Seven years later and her mother, who was Viper's sweet butt, is dead -- and Viper thinks Naiya owes him.
So he takes her.
But not without fight from her. A fight that has her tossed in the dungeon where she meets the torn, broken man who she will come to love, a man who no longer relates to T-Rex, but goes only by his true given name, Holt.
These two. Their journey was.... I won't say the most difficult of the Sinner Tribe books, but it was different. Both of our characters have a reason to want revenge against Viper. Both of our characters have a reason to want away from the MC life.
Holt's internal battles throughout the story were extremely well written. His belief that the men he called his brothers, that they abandoned him, had more than one reason backing it up. He wants to go to them to kill them all, he's so upset with them, but a chance meeting with his once best friend, Tank, and he starts to question things -- because according to Tank, they didn't give up on him (which, if you read Sinner's Steel, you know they looked and were pissed when certain members more or less gave up on T-Rex long before they found the body).
One of the things I liked the most about this particular book was probably the fact that it was about a MC member who wanted to get out -- which, if you know the genre, does not happen nicely. I liked that it was Holt against the world -- with Naiya at his side. This smart, sassy woman showed on multiple occasions what an asset she could be to Holt. Granted, she had her not so smart moments that had Holt seeing red -- but only because he became quite the protective beast where she was concerned.
I absolutely loved this story. On top of the whole Holt-Naiya/Viper/Sinner Tribe line, we also had the bromance that was Holt and Tank -- it made me tear up multiple times, I have to say -- and a little question of Shaggy...
Such a cute story and I loved the way it ended. I have much respect for Jagger with how this ended, too. I hope Tank is next.
I really hope Tank is next.
I mean, there's plenty of lead-in for it....
