Review / Release Blitz: Crossing Borders (Blackbridge Security #10) by Marie James

Release Date: June 9

Although I take my job very seriously—being the resident charmer, the man responsible for helping clients with security, all the while making it look like I’m the newest love interest of insanely gorgeous women—it looks like it’s all fun and games.
I’m getting paid to go on dates to some of the most glamourous places all around the world after all, but at the end of the day, it’s still work.
When the assignment is over, I walk away—usually with a smile and another notch in my bedpost, but who am I to turn down the perks?
This new assignment should be no different. I can play any role handed to me.
Hell, I love a new challenge.
Only Archer Bremen is different… and not just for the obvious reasons.
His British accent hits me in a way I never expected.
The scowl on his face makes me think of a million things I could do to make it fade.
His smile tells me that this new assignment is going to change everything…

MY REVIEW

Brooks' next assignment just may be the end of him. Babysitting a spoiled, messed up rockstar isn't necessarily a first for the guy who pretends to date gorgeous women all over the world when he's actually protecting them. Sure, he beds them after a lot of the time, but in no way does he do relationships. But his latest gig has put him front and center in Archer's screwed up life. Archer, the rockstar who was outed but denied it by saying he was drunk and high when caught with his friend and bandmate, a GUY. Yes, a guy. But no big deal, Brooks will do what he always does - his job. Right?


Archer's not used to anyone, male or female, not falling all over themselves to be near him. So when his new bodyguard doesn't seem to care for him, even while naked and ahem, holding himself, he instantly wants him. But Brooks is straight as an arrow. Or is he? Can Brooks come to terms with his newly discovered desires? Will Archer figure out his own life and where he is in Brooks' life?


I knew Brooks would have a good story and damn did he. Pairing him with a guy was unexpected for me, but I loved it. His coming to terms with his identity was so good - some back and forth, some hurt feelings, some uncertainty, a lot of passion, and so much heart. I loved Archer and Brooks together, and I'm going to miss this crew.


Meet Marie James
Let's see...where to begin...

I'm inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we're doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master's degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there's usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I'm not writing; I'm reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I'm reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it's gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.

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...
