Review / Release Blitz: The Way We Play (The Bradford Boys #2) by Tia Louise

The Way We Play by Tia Louise is now live!

How does one get to be a thirty-year-old virgin?
In my case, start with being risk-averse and cautious, focused on building your career, then inherit your 12-year-old, special-needs brother. Done!
Zane Bradford appeared at the perfect time.
He takes my brother to equine therapy, he gives me rides to work, and he rescues me when I collapse in the shower. (Yes, he saw me naked.)
He says he only breaks things, but I only see him fixing everything. Heck, his job is as a repair man.
This grumpy, angry god with lean muscles, silky dark hair, and ice blue eyes has taken himself out of the game. But massage therapy is my job, and I'm ready to play.

Hello, I'm Zane Bradford, and I break things.
Starting with my little sister's dreams, followed by my football career.
Yes, I'm grumpy and distant; I'm following the script: No attachments; no one gets hurt.
Rachel Wells is ruining everything.
She walks into my workplace and argues with me, talks back, defends herself.
She gives me romance books to "improve my mood," and insists on massage therapy to ease my pain.
Chronic pain isn't my problem--she is, with her bright green eyes and sassy attitude.
Then she tells me she's never been kissed. (What's wrong with the men in Birmingham?)
The more she tempts me, the more I feel my resolve weakening.
She wants to play, but I'm not going to break.

(THE WAY WE PLAY is a small-town, grumpy-sunshine, sports romance with close proximity, enemies-to-lovers vibes, and a virgin FMC, and an over-protective alpha hero. No cheating. No cliffhanger. No third-act breakup.)

MY REVIEW

Zane is the grumpy Bradford brother. He's got a lot of baggage thanks to loss and feelings of intense guilt. It's why he immediately can't stand the sunshiney Rachel, who's around a lot on his new job. She's this ray of light with a special brother, with whom he forms a connection. At first he does his best to avoid her, but when he can't resist her any more, he gives in. Now what is he going to do? He can't offer her what she deserves, so he really needs to do the best thing and push her away.

Rachel moved here to get away from her father, and bring her brother to a safe space after he was bullied in school for being "different." She's found a circle, a family, here and she wants to stay. But when the grumpiest Bradford guy starts a job where she works, she instantly wants to help him. She wants to physically heal his old football injuries, and she wants to help him with the pain she can tell he carries around on his broad shoulders. But just as she comes to the conclusion that he'll never let her close enough to do that, he goes and kisses her, then much more. She knows he doesn't want the same things as she, or does he? He just may want what she wants, and they could have it...if he lets them.

Oh Zane...I wanted to hug the big, grumpy lug so many times. He had so much misplaced guilt, even though it was obvious that Dylan wasn't at all suffering even though she couldn't fulfill her dancing dreams. And yet, he just could not move beyond it. Until a sunshiney yoga instructor waltzed her and her brother's way into his life and his heart and wouldn't leave. I always love Tia's small town love stories - the found family, the lovable heroes and heroines, the scorching chemistry, but I think Rachel and Zane have something a little extra, they have heart in spades. Heartfelt, beautifully told, and 2 (3) absolutely lovable characters I wish were real so I could get to know them and be in their world with them.

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...
