Review & Blog Tour: Hard to Handle (Play Hard #1) by K. Bromberg

Hard to Handle, book one in the Play Hard series, an all new series of standalone books by New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg, is LIVE!
At first, the request seemed simple—sign a new athlete to the agency.
Then I found out the new athlete was none other than the most wanted man in hockey today: Hunter Maddox
Gifted. Sexy. At the top of his game. And the only man who has ever broken my heart.
If signing him will help save our family business, I’ll swallow my pride and do what’s asked.
But when it becomes clear his uncharacteristic antics off the ice are a hint of something deeper, keeping things strictly professional between us becomes more than complicated.
But I know better than to cross that line.
I’ll never date a client. Not even for him.
***
Win the Stanley Cup and do it before time runs out.
Not a small feat, but it’s what’s motivated me since the start of my career.
And time is running out.
Enter Dekker Kincade.
Feisty. Dogged. Damn gorgeous. The one I let get away.
I have no idea why she’s traveling with the team, but hell if resisting her is going to be easy.
But I have a job to do, and I refuse to lose sight of that end game. Even if she confuses me. Even if she sees parts of me I’ve hidden from the world.
I can’t lose focus. Not even for her.
MY REVIEW
Finding that the client Dekker needs to woo in order to help save her family's sports agency is someone with whom she has a complicated past is not going to take Dekker down. The fact that Hunter is a spoiled, womanizing athlete acting out for the world to see, though, just may bring her down. She'll need to do her level best to keep her heart intact, keep herself out of Hunter's clutches, if she stands a chance at this. Is she up to the task?


Nobody does a tortured, layered alpha quite like K. Bromberg. I think Hunter just may be her most damaged AND lovable hero yet. His backstory is absolutely heartbreaking - expect to need a box of tissues while reading, everyone! But my girl Dekker was more than up to the task of not just signing, but more importantly, loving, him. I love how she had his back against the people who were always trying to bring Hunter down. And I love how he was the vulnerable one and she lifted him up. Kudos for the strong heroine bringing the damaged hero to his knees all while lifting him up and supporting him. Bromberg has absolutely outdone herself with Hard to Handle and I for one, cannot wait for more of this series and more of these sisters.

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...
