BLURB
Jaxsen Wild has landed himself in hot water with the NBA.

After letting his temper get the best of him during a game, he’s slapped on the wrist with a warning—get your act together, or your career and the championship with the Miami Blaze is on the line.

He wasn’t looking for love, and he certainly never saw Emmy coming when she crashes into him at the airport. Jaxsen is used to women using him for his money and the media dragging his name through the mud.

The last thing he needs is another scandal with his name plastered in the headlines. Still, something about how she has no idea who he is, draws him in.

Learning her ex cheated on her has Emmy swear off men and relationships forever. All she wants is one night of passion to forget everything—no strings attached. Who better than Mr. Tall, Dark and Dreamy staying at her hotel after their cancelled flight leaves them stranded in the city?

Except Jaxsen wants more than one night with Emmy, and he isn’t ready to let her go so easily.

When word gets out about their relationship and Jaxsen finds out the secret she’s been keeping, Emmy fears he’ll believe she’s using him like all the women before her.

Or worse, he'll live up to his bad boy reputation and turn out to be as much of a player off the court as he is on it.

MY REVIEW

Emmy's hot one night stand with a gorgeous guy was supposed to stay at one night, and she wasn't ever supposed to see him again. But fate intervenes and now here they are in each other's orbit again. Jaxsen's reputation is in trouble and he's supposed to be lying low, but now that he's seen Emmy again, he's determined to have it all with her. He'll need to work overtime, though, if he wants to convince her he's not what his reputation says he is.

Two likable leads, plus basketball?! I am so there. It's always fun when a playboy is reformed by love, and even better when the he has to work his ass off convincing his partner he's changed. Their chemistry is positively smokin', and the former bad boy of basketball didn't know what slam dunked him when he ran into Emmy at the airport.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
