BTR - BT banner.jpg

Some lines shouldn’t be crossed.
Some rules shouldn’t be broken.
June is one of them, and I know it.

Break the Rules, an all-new hilarious, brother’s best friend romance from Roxie Noir, is available now!

RN_BreaktheRules_Ebook
As a forest ranger, I believe in the simple life. I prefer cabins to apartments, trails to freeways, and trees to people. My life is orderly, predictable, and quiet.
Until it’s hit by a woman I never saw coming -- Hurricane June.
She’s fierce. She’s feisty. She has a laugh like the first day of spring, and she’s so pretty that I can’t breathe when I look at her. June will only be in town for a few months—just while job-hunting. She won’t last until winter, but how can I resist?
Except I have to. She’s my best, oldest, and most loyal friend’s baby sister.
Betraying him would be the worst thing I’ve ever done. Not betraying him might be the hardest.
Especially once we start working together on a secret project. All this spending time together, sneaking around at night, and lying to her brother about what we’re doing sure feels like more than friendship.
June might break my heart. Her brother might break my nose.
But I guess some things were made to be broken.

MY REVIEW
June's back home trying to love nature. So it makes sense that her brother's best friend, Levi, a forest ranger, is the one who rescues her when she needs it. Too bad for June that her crush on Levi has long been unrequited. But perhaps no longer unrequited because Levi's finding himself with feelings decidedly unbrotherly. And that's a problem because his best friend IS June's brother, and the man Levi considers his brother, too. He just knows Silas will not be cool with him being with his baby sister, as Silas is known for scaring off any of June's love interests, whether June wants him to or not.

I loved Levi and June! They're so freaking adorable together. Levi with his kind, compassionate heart and simple life working with trees, and June with her quirky sort of lost self who is the only one who stands up to her overprotective big brother. But lest I make you think they're all sweetness and light and no sizzle, have no fear because they are seriously hot together, too! I loved Daniel in the previous story, Best Fake Fiancé, but I love Levi and June even more. Their story is downright amazing. These Loveless Brothers and the women who love them are perfect!

Excerpt
I like this side of Levi. It’s a side I’ve only ever seen glimpses of before in the past two weeks — sweet, slightly goofy, teasing and funny, different from the serious, quiet man I thought he was. It’s a strange revelation, but a good one, even if I wish I liked it less.
“One minute,” I tell him, and pull back from the window.
I shut it. I pull the curtains closed.I wonder what I’m doing and why on earth Levi has shown up beneath my bedroom window at twelve-thirty in the morning. I wish that the sight of him down there had made me feel differently, that I was indifferent and vaguely curious instead of suddenly buzzing and feeling like I’m being lifted aloft by several large birds.
I tiptoe down the stairs and through the living room, still wondering. I haven’t heard from him at all since we ate pizza in the back of his truck two nights ago, and I wish that didn’t bother me. I wish I thought less about him sitting there, as night fell, laughing and showing me his cell phone or telling me that he’s an alien.
I wish I thought less about him, period.
When I get outside, Levi’s leaning against his truck, his shoulder-length hair out of its usual knot.
I’m not sure I remember seeing him with his hair down before. He looks different. Relaxed. Like himself.
“I named the dog,” he says as I walk up to him.
I don’t know what I was expecting him to say, but that wasn’t it.
“You do know that the last time a man came to my window, I called my brother to get rid of him,” I say. “I’m sure he told you about that.”
“He certainly did,” Levi said. “And if I were in my right mind, it might have deterred me.”
“You’re in your wrong mind, then?” I ask, tilting my head slightly, keeping my voice down.
“You didn’t ask what I named the dog,” he says.
“Did you come here at twelve-thirty in the morning to tell me you named your dog?” I ask.
Levi smiles, holds out one hand. I step forward and take it, his skin warm and he enfolds my fingers in his.
“No,” he says. “I came here to say that I think you should come back to my place for a nightcap.”
“A nightcap?”
“Yes,” he says. “I’d like to take you home, fix you a drink, and seduce you, and I’d like to do it without thinking even once of your brother.”

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
