Forgetting Yesterday

by Ava Wood

Genre: YA Romance

Release Date: October 28^th 2016

Summary from Goodreads:

Missy Shaw thought she had her life planned out perfectly; do well in school, take her basketball team to state, and get a free ride to college. Her life wasn't perfect, but it was constant. With her best friend Karley at her side, she could handle anything.

After the death of her mother, however, her dad had other plans. Moving Missy from everything she knew in Kansas to the great unknown created a new set of problems. Attending a new school, all she really wanted was to be invisible, but that simple feat proved difficult when she had a run-in with the school's basketball star, Adam Miller, on her very first day.

Adam is every girl's dream; charming, sweet, and gorgeous. And for some reason, he's very interested in Missy. His attentiveness is unnerving as Missy does everything in her power to evade his interest. Living with secrets she's not willing to share, Missy works to push Adam away in order to keep her family safe. But will keeping secrets really keep her safe?

Review- Only You by Denise Grover Swank

Summary-

Never say never . . .

Romance isn't an option for Holly Greenwood. With her wedding planner career on the line she needs to stay focused, and that means pleasing her demanding boss, not getting distracted by her mind-alteringly hot neighbor . . .

Ex-Marine Kevin Vandemeer craves normalcy. Instead, he has a broken-down old house in need of a match and some gasoline, a meddling family, and the uncanny ability to attract the world's craziest women. At least that last one he can fix: he and his buddies have made a pact to swear off women, and this includes his sweetly sexy new neighbor.

After one hot night that looks a whole lot like a disaster in the light of day, Kevin and Holly are about to learn that true love doesn't play by the rules . . . 

Release date: October 25th, 2016

Review-

To be frank, Only You by Denise Grover Swank was a book I clicked on by mistake. I got it through Netgalley and I thought I'd give it a try now that I had it. I have not read any book previously by Denise Grover Swank so I thought if I found a great new to me author by accident it would make my day. Sadly that was not the case. Only You turned out to be a very much average read for me.

Only You is the first book in the Bachelor Brotherhood series. Even though it is a series it can be read as a stand alone as each book is about a different couple. So this is the story of Holly and Kevin. Let's start with Holly. Holly is a wedding planner and she wants to start her own business. She has a demanding boss and a sick grandmother. She is juggling everything, trying to stay sane. I liked Holly. She was a genuinely sweet person.

Then we have Kevin. Kevin is an ex-Marine and now he wants a normal life. Kevin actually ends up becoming Holly's neighbour after he ends up moving in an old house across from her. I liked Kevin but he acted dumb at times. Yes, I know he had bad luck where women were concerned but lumping everyone into the same category felt unfair to me. Kevin's attraction to Holly is true though and he does act on it.

Kevin and Holly made a cute couple. They rushed things at first and then Holly got gun shy because of Kevin's behaviour. But Kevin does make up for it with his patience. They share a friends who aren't really friends but trying hard to remain platonic relationship. It certainly doesn't help that Kevin's mother is Holly's boss and that Kevin has a meddling sister.

I also liked Kevin's two best friends. As you can probably tell I'm sure both of them will get books which will complete the remainder of this trilogy. The book moved steadily forward but the end was very rushed. I did not like how things happened at such a hurried pace. It got over before we knew it and I wasn't wholly satisfied. Only You by Denise Grover Swank was an okay read for me.

*Note: A copy of this book was provided by the author/publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. We thank them.

Dark One's Mistress

by Aldrea Alien

Genre: NA Gothic Romance

Release Date: October 31st 2016

Thardrandian Publications

Summary from Goodreads:

For centuries, the people have lived under the protection of their so-called Dark Lord. Now, with news of his death reaching the quiet village of Everdark, rumour whispers that his son, Lucias, is hunting for a mistress to beget him an heir. 

Clara doesn't put much stock in village gossip, until she finds herself forcibly taken to the Lord's fortress. Escape is not easy. She has no way out and, against a man with magic, little chance of fighting back. But the Lords are still men and the death of Lucias' father is proof that they die just the same. And yet, if Lucias dies heirless, his army will be free to terrorise the land. 

Such is the goal of Lenora of Ne'ermore, an old enemy and ex-prisoner of the kingdom. She is sending a man to slaughter Lucias and, to ensure there's no chance of an heir, his mistress must die as well. 

Caught between regaining her freedom or losing it for the good of the kingdom, Clara struggles to decide her path before certain death breaches the gates.

About the Author:

Mother. Animal lover. Vampire. Fangirl. 

Aldrea Alien is a New Zealand author of romantic speculative fiction of varying heat levels.

She grew up on a small farm out the back blocks of a place known as Wainuiomata alongside a menagerie of animals, who are all convinced they're just as human as the next person (especially the cats). She spent a great deal of her childhood riding horses, whilst the rest of her time was consumed with reading every fantasy book she could get her hands on and concocting ideas about a little planet known as Thardrandia. This would prove to be the start of The Rogue King Saga as, come her twelfth year, she discovered there was a book inside her.

Aldrea now lives in Upper Hutt, on yet another small farm with a less hectic, but still egotistical, group of animals (cats will be cats). She still hasn't yet found an off switch to give her an ounce of peace from the characters plaguing her mind, a list that grows bigger every year with all of them clamouring for her to tell their story first. It's a lot of people for one head.

He also knows that she’s everything he can never have.

 

After a devastating divorce, Daisy doesn’t need anyone to warn her off the charming best man at her sister’s wedding. One look at the breathtakingly hot Lincoln Mathis and she knows that he’s exactly the type of man she should avoid.

And suddenly Daisy and Lincoln find their lives helplessly entwined in a journey that will either heal their damaged souls . . . or destroy them forever.
