Review :: Bad Penny :: Staci Hart

SBPRBanner-BADPENNY-RB.jpg

"Witty, sexy as all hell, and addictive like no other, Staci Hart BRINGS IT with Bad Penny."

-T.M. Frazier, USA Today Bestselling Author


Bad Penny, an all-new romantic comedy standalone from Staci Hart is now LIVE!

cover-wrap-penny copy 4.57.20 PM

Synopsis

Nothing good comes after the third date.
See, date three is the crucial point when things get real, which is exactly why I bounce out the door, twiddling my fingers at whatever poor boy I’ve left behind. Because if I stick around, one of three things will happen: he’ll profess his undying love, he gets weird and stalky, or I’ll go crazy. Like, Sid and Nancy crazy. Like, chase-him-through-the-streets-begging-him-to-love-me crazy.
Seriously, it’s better for everyone this way.
So when I meet Bodie, I figure it’ll be the same as it ever was. It doesn’t matter that he doesn’t put a single string on me. Doesn’t matter that he’s funny and smart and jacked and can play my body like a grand piano. Because even though I’m built for love, love has only carved me up like a Christmas ham.
Resistance is something I can only hang on to for so long, and he has persistence in spades. But my heart isn’t as safe as I want to believe, and neither is his. And the second I ignore my cardinal rule is the second I stand to lose him forever.

Review: 

Staci has done it again. 

Seriously. 

Just when I think she's written her finest work ever, she one ups herself. 

After being emotionally batter and bruised after reading A Thousand Letters (SERIOUSLY GO READ IT!!!), this was exactly the balm needed to soothe the wounds. 

Bad Penny. Man, where do I start? Let's just go with how utterly humorous this book is. Jokes, funny situations, word play. This book has all the hilarity. 

Penny has got to be one of my most favorite heroines ever. She is independent with co-dependent tendencies. She is strong and a warrior and everything you love about female leads. 

Bodie knows what he wants and he knows how to get it. By being patient with Penny, he's getting results. Especially after he gets Penny to break her ridiculous 3 date rule (which he doesn't know anything about). He just knows that he wants her. 

Amid deadlines, weddings, work, and big plans, these two fall together. Of course, they have their ups and downs, but the way that Staci has written it, it's moving. She pulls at your heart while throwing humor in with despair. 

It is zero secret that I am a HUGE Hart fan and this hasn't changed at all. In fact, I applaud Staci for being able to continuously write some of the best books I've ever read. 

Giving this book anything less than five stars feels like a crime.

About the Author

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she's not writing, she's reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.

Release Blitz + Review :: The Boxer :: Piper Rayne

http://sassysavvyfabulous.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/ebook-The-Boxer-500x800.jpg
Cover Design: Djordje Grbic
Release Date: March 1, 2017

Synopsis
“Who knew a bad boy could mend a broken heart?"
What does a girl do after she discovers her fiancé is a cheating bastard?
In my case, I performed the ritual implosion of all scorned women. I drowned my sorrows in cases of white wine, wallowed in gallons of ice cream, and ignited a bonfire to burn away every damn remnant of his existence. Six months later, the only result was a permanent impression of my ass on the couch.
Adventure Dating my friends dared.
A new and exciting opportunity they said.

I thought they were crazy, but I’m not one to back down from a challenge, so I signed up for the entire four-week deal.
That’s where I saw HIM. Lucas Cummings. He isn’t the classic rich boy I usually end up with. The one whose idea of working up a sweat is waiting for his margarita to be served beachside. Nope. He’s a rough and tough bad boy that all fathers warn their daughters about. You know the type. Cocky swagger, chiseled jaw—the ‘V’.

SOLD, I said to myself, until I discovered he was so much more than just a BOXER.
Left Hook.
Right to the heart.

This is a standalone book in The Modern Love World. You do not need to read book one, The Bartender, in order to read The Boxer.

Captain's Log :: Review
I absolutely love this writing duo. I read their book The Bartender and it was excellent and this one was equally excellent. 

I love the plot and how the characters find their way. I loved the growth, the emotions, just everything. 

The Boxer is an excellent book that I would very highly recommend.

About the Author
Piper Rayne, or Piper and Rayne, whichever you prefer because we’re not one author, we’re two. Yep, you get two established authors for the price of one. You might be wondering if you know us? Maybe you’ll read our books and figure it out. Maybe you won’t. Does it really matter?
We aren’t trying to stamp ourselves with a top-secret label. We wanted to write without apology. We wanted to not be pigeon holed into a specific outline. We wanted to give readers a story without them assuming how the story will flow. Everyone has their favorite authors, right? And when you pick up their books, you expect something from them. Whether it’s an alpha male, heavy angst, a happily ever after, there’s something you are absolutely certain the book will contain. Heck, we’re readers, too, we get it.
What can we tell you about ourselves? We both have kindle’s full of one-clickable books. We're both married to husbands who drive us to drink. We're both chauffeurs to our kids. Most of all, we love hot heroes and quirky heroines that make us laugh, and we hope you do, too.

Release Blitz + Review :: Nailed :: Staci Hart

nailed-cover2-1

NAILED (an erotic short)
Staci Hart
Publication Date: December 15, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Romance/Erotic Romance

Synopsis:

Everyone wants to get nailed.

Sometimes the first thing you feel for someone is lust. Maybe it's for a stranger. It might be someone you've only just noticed, or someone whom you've known, but aren't allowed to want. Maybe you just don't know if they're affected by you, if the sound of their voice or the way they touch your hand makes them as crazy as it makes you.

Or, perhaps they want you just as badly as you want them. Sometimes, it's all you can do to stop yourself from acting on it.

*sigh*

I loved these delicious little bites that Staci has gifted us. These amazing, perfect little tiny stories that make you squirm in the best way possible.

This book was kind of like eating a chocolate chip cookie straight out of the oven: dangerously hot, but simply delicious.

About the Author
 
headshot

  CD Reiss is a New York Times bestseller. She still has to chop wood and carry water, which was buried in the fine print. Her lawyer is working it out with God but in the meantime, if you call and she doesn't pick up she's at the well hauling buckets.   Born in New York City, she moved to Hollywood, California to get her master's degree in screenwriting from USC. In case you want to know, that went nowhere but it did give her a big enough ego to write novels.   She's frequently referred to as the Shakespeare of Smut which is flattering but hasn't ever gotten her out of chopping that cord of wood.   If you meet her in person, you should call her Christine.

Release Blitz + Review + Giveaway :: Edge of Bliss :: Molly E. Lee


Photo & Cover Design: Regina Wamba / MaeIDesign and Photography
Models: Ripp B. (Dash) & Mackenzy T. (Blake)
Release Date: December 14, 2016

Synopsis
I never knew how perfect life could be until Blake Caster was finally mine.

Chasing storms with her only doubles the passion and the rush, but as we travel down tornado alley at the start of the season, we run into more than our fair share of nonweather-related trouble.

My past on the alley catches up to me in a bad way and with each captured storm, a wedge is driven between us. The harder I try to hold on to Blake, the faster she is slipping away.

Add to that an unexpected call from her ex, new pressures from the reality show filming our every move, and a job offer Blake may not be able to pass up, and my perfect life is on the same chaotic path as the storms we chase.

All I want to do is make her mine—forever—but one trip down tornado alley might be our last.

Captain's Log :: Review

OH.
MY.
YESSSSS!!!!

First, I have to say that I love Molly. I love her words, her talent, and her always smiling face.
Second, Dash + Blake = 4 eva

I loved this book. It was just perfect. I loved how Edge of Chaos ended but I wanted more. A lot more. Edge of Bliss definitely gave me that "more" that I wanted.

There's a lot that can't be said in a review without *major spoilers* so I'll just say this as I do for almost every Molly book I've read: you can "see" what's happening as you read it. It's a very well written visualization. I read Molly's books like a person sees a movie. I can see the cast clearly, their interactions, their squabbles, the backgrounds, their emotions - just everything. She is so gifted at giving us these tiny tidbits so there's no blanks but plenty is left to our imaginations.

Part of me is sad that Dash and Blake's story is "over" but I'm mostly really glad that we got to go on this journey with these two characters.
