Daisy Prescott - ready to Fall



When you fall, you fall hard... 

Every girl dreams of meeting a man like John Day. Tall, dark, and handsome is an understatement. With rugged good looks, his ever present plaid shirt, and a dog named Babe, John is a modern alpha male lumberjack in more ways than one. 

Lurking beneath the flannel and beard could be the heart of a romantic. Or is John a wolf in flannel clothing? 

After his favorite neighbor rents out her cabin for the winter, John finds himself playing fireman and tour guide to Diane Watson, a beautiful brunette with her own messy past and recent battle scars. 

Will he be ready to fall in love? Or will he fall back into his old, flirty ways? 

Hold onto your heart... and get ready to fall with John Day as he tells his story in this contemporary romance/romantic comedy told in male POV.

This is a spin-off from Geoducks Are for Lovers. It is not necessary to read that novel first.






I love this book. John Day is a gorgeous rough n ready man, in need of some love, but doesn't really know it. Diane is running from her past, and has escaped it by coming to the island, and immediately bumped into John. From there, I will not tell you any more of the story, because it really is worth reading for yourself. It's not all sex, it's not all flowers and roses, but it is 
beautifully written.

 Before writing funny contemporary romances about adults, I dreamed of being an author while doing a lot of other things. Antiques dealer, baker, blue ribbon pie-maker, fangirl, freelance writer, gardener, pet mom and wife are a few of the titles I've acquired along the way.

Born and raised in San Diego, my husband and I currently live in a real life Stars Hollow in the Boston suburbs with our dog, Hubbell, and an imaginary house goat. 

Ready to Fall, my second novel, features John Day, the hot, sexy neighbor in my debut novel Geoducks Are for Lovers. Both can be read as stand-alones. I'm busy researching my next novel, which will not feature any bivalves.

Misbehaving - Tiffany Reisz



Over here in the UK, it's currently so wet and windy we're on a weather warning of floods. So what we could do with, is something that can warm us up. What better than the newest novella from the tremendously talented Tiffany Reisz.

Wanted: Adventurous, open-minded man willing to try anything…

As a popular sex blogger, Beatriz gets paid to have orgasms. So being on deadline the week of her sister’s wedding isn’t as rough as it sounds. There’s just one hitch: Bea’s assignment is to write a review of a sex position manual, but she doesn’t have a plus one to play with.

The good news: Ben, the one who got away back in college, is also attending stag--and he's as temptingly gorgeous as ever.

The bad news: Ben turned down Bea’s offer of graduation night sex five years ago.

The best news: He’s not planning on making the same mistake twice.

Who could say no to a talented, sexy, Latina blogger. That wants to test her way through a book called The Manual, and had chosen you, to be her no strings sex friend? To be honest. Ben couldn't say no to a clothed Beatriz either, so, wish granted. 

What I loved about this book most,was that it wasn't all about Beatriz and Ben, there was focus on Carolyn and Henry's liaisons, and the funny little Bellhop. His lines had me laughing. TBH, he stole the show on occasions, I hope he returns in other books. He always comes good in the end. 

OK, if I have to find a sore point,  it did feel a tad rushed :( and I do hope there are more books with Beatriz in, I'm already missing her. Like I miss my Book Boyfriend's she buried herself into my heart.
So thank you Miss Reisz. Beatriz got through Princess Pains shield !

I've always been an avid fan of Tiffany's, quite vocally made it clear too. This blog tour means a lot to me because of this very reason. I hope I've done it justice. I know I've thoroughly enjoyed my time entwined with it, and hope it's the first of many Blog Tours! Yes, my first EVER blog tour, was also for my favourite author. Memorable for me for many reasons.  
So, on that note, a little about her....

Tiffany Reisz lives in Lexington, Kentucky with her boyfriend (a reformed book reviewer) and two cats (one good, one evil). She graduated with a B.A. in English from Centre College in Danville, Kentucky and is making both her parents and her professors proud by writing BDSM erotica under her real name. She has five piercings, one tattoo, and has been arrested twice.

When not under arrest, Tiffany enjoys Latin Dance, Latin Men, and Latin Verbs. She dropped out of a conservative southern seminary in order to pursue her dream of becoming a smut peddler. Johnny Depp’s aunt was her fourth grade teacher. Her first full-length novel THE SIREN was inspired by a desire to tie up actor Jason Isaacs (on paper). She hopes someday life will imitate art (in bed).

If she couldn’t write, she would die.

Walking Disaster - Jamie McGuire


Finally, the highly anticipated follow-up to the New York Times bestseller Beautiful Disaster.

Can you love someone too much?
Travis Maddox learned two things from his mother before she died: Love hard. Fight harder.
In Walking Disaster, the life of Travis is full of fast women, underground gambling, and violence. But just when he thinks he is invincible, Abby Abernathy brings him to his knees.


Every story has two sides. In Beautiful Disaster, Abby had her say. Now it’s time to see the story through Travis’s eyes.
(From www.goodreads.com)

Book 2 :) yaaaay. This is Beautiful Disaster, from Travis' point of view. It's enlightening, and amazing, to be able to see his anger, rage and love. Oh he loves her so much, from the second he lays eyes on her. He'd do anything for her, and does, constantly. TBH, I didn't realise until this book, how whiny Abby had been in the first book lol. Now I see what men mean, yep, women can be Whiny nags, at least, that's how they see us! Coz that's how she came across I. His book, but not from her point of view. From different perspectives, everything is different.
I'm still very much in love with Travis, Abby, budge over love. These books are no BDSM, and a lot less sex. More romance. Which we all need once in a while.
There is an extra chapter at the end, which is fabulous! Hold out for that.
