A Cocky Hero Club Novel
Author: Tara L. Ames
Genre: Contemporary Romance

Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward are excited to bring you the Cocky Hero Club: original works from various authors inspired by Keeland and Ward's New York Times bestselling Cocky Bastard series.

BLURB
A hockey star looking for more than a score. An Olympic figure skater dodging his play. A desire too ice melting hot to ignore.

My flight was cancelled and I ended up sharing a ride home with a guy I had met on my vacation. But he was no ordinary guy.
Two hundred pounds of sexy.
Six foot three made of steel.
Top scorer both on and off the ice.
This hottie knew how to slap a puck!
He was #35 on the ice and #1 in puck bunny hearts.
I had to protect myself from this cocky devil before he became #1 in mine. Burned by his teammate, I swore off dating anymore jocks and that included this one… No matter how crazy fun my adventure was with him on that wild trip home!

I wasn’t expecting to fall for a sexy snow bunny on my ski vacation, let alone an Olympic figure skater. But after four amazing days with her, she left me high and dry.
Well, I refused to believe good things come to an end. I was determined to melt away her fears and win her back.
It was game on, baby!

Cocky Devil is a fast-paced hockey romance inspired by Cocky Bastard.

MY REVIEW

Alex has never had such an immediate reaction to a woman, and he wants more of her. Unfortunately, now that Madison has found out who he is, or rather, what his profession is, she's become determined to keep him at arm's length. Now he'll have to work overtime to convince her he's nothing like her ex, who happens to be his teammate.

Alex is the saving grace of this story. I loved his character - he's sweet, sexy, and beyond determined to prove to Madison that he's nothing like her jerk of an ex. Unfortunately for him, and for me as a reader, Madison was not deserving of such a sweet guy. Her push and pull, hot and cold bs with him drove me nuts. Sometimes you just gotta take a leap of faith, and Madison needed to learn that, rather than stringing the poor guy along for nearly the entire story. Alex deserved someone equal to him, and he didn't get that, so 3 stars is all I can give this one.

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...
