Amy's 4 star ARC Review of Lady Killer (Tangled Desires #2) by Misti Murphy

They called him the Lady Killer. Able to get into a woman’s panties in 3.6 seconds flat. 

I know where he’s been. I know he keeps a list of all the women he’s f*cked. 

And there are so many reasons I’m not interested in being another number. 

I’m the reason his boxing career is over. The reason he almost died. 

I can never stop running. 

Problem is, he’s got his sights set on me… 

And for the first time I don’t want to run. 

From the minute I see her I know I’m looking at trouble. 

I shouldn’t pursue her. I shouldn’t be trying to find out her secrets. 

I’m supposed to be looking for the woman who mailed me a two-line pee-stick and no return address. 

But Gemma Castle sees through the layers of my reputation. 

And she thinks that guy is some kind of knight in shiny f*cking armor. 

She makes me want to be that. 

Saving her might just save me. 

Once again here is a really good story that I have missed the first release! Prick Tease is the first in this series of standalones BUT I highly suggest you read it. I'm going back to click it up now but lets move onto Lady Killer; the story of the Tom “Lady Killer” Hadley and Gemma. This is a really good story and Im anxious for the next! 

The Hadley clan consist of Claire, soon to be brother in law Razer Bennington, Tom, Mace, honorary sister Chelsea Taylor, and a mysterious brother Rush. Again, I'm not sure if there is a back story I missed on him so if there is someone let me know please! 

Tom Hadley has returned to Reverence. His boxing career shattered by a hit and run. No one knows who the driver was nor the mysterious girl who called his name before being hit. No one saw anything or no one is talking. Opening his own gym has grounded Tom along with a secret package with nothing more than a positive pregnancy test. Going down his list of one nighters, Tom is determined to find the person that sent him the package. Until then all bets are off in the “Lady Killer’s bed …. at least he thought it was until the most stunning woman walks into his gym, uninterested, and a total mystery. Gem claims to know him but why doesn’t he remember her and more so … why is she so afraid? 

Gemma Castle is on the run. Making herself into a new person in each town she never dreamed she would end up standing face to face with Tommy. Gemma has to get out as soon as possible. Bringing danger to his doorstep again is not the answer and not what he needs. Jimmy Santiago will never let her go much less care who he has to go through to get to her. Putting the Hadley family in danger isn’t an option … if only she could walk away from this man … if only she could stay running. 

Tom finding out that Santiago is the one responsible for Gem running he will protect her with everything he has … Along with the rest of the Hadley clan, they are all going to make sure Santiago never touches her again. 

OMGOSH … this is sooo good. My 4 star instead of 5 is because I felt out of touch with what I had missed and you all know I don't like that. I reserve the right to come back and change the rating after reading Prick Tease! LOL! ... There is continued drama and mystery, nail biting events and much much more. Bring on the next Misty. Oh my lawd I'm ready. In the mean time I'm heading backwards to the first book. Thank you for the ARC! Review to post to Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets.

Amy's 5 star ARC Review of FU Cancer by Hilaria Alexander

Lucy has always been a good girl. The most hardcore thing she's done in her life was falling for a divorced man ten years her senior. 
But he was the love of her life, and she married him. When her Peter Pan of a husband decided to divorce her, she thought it was her chance to start anew. That was until she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Besides looking like Britney circa 2007, she is taking it well, real well. You might see her walk around the hospital during chemo sessions with bright colored wigs and outrageous t-shirts that seem to shock the most conservative employees. One of them reads FU CANCER.

Cancer Warriors you need to read this story. For those of us that have not had to battle this horrific demon; you also need to read this story. Lucy has always played by the rules. She had her two boys with the man she loved. He was her only sort of taboo event she had ever partaken in during her life. Patrick was divorced and ten years older than her. He was the love of her life … and then he divorced her too. Living her life just as she should hasn’t paid off because now she gets to fight breast cancer. Lucy decides to F U Cancer … depression .. no … she is going to kick Cancer’s ass. Lucy has her friends, her mom and a man named Brandon. 

I LOVED Lucy’s spirit. Neon wigs, magnificent t-shirts with strong sentiments, and holding her head high ..yes! Lucy is a sassy, strong and amazing spirit. I absolutely stand and give Hilaria a resounding round of applause. There are countless women out there that need to read this book. Read it while they are taking chemo, read it after they are diagnosed, read it while they are fighting or standing beside someone who is fighting. I will tell you there is an HEA but you will need some tissues during your read. 

Be prepared to be inspired .. click this one up. Thank you Hilaria for the ARC. I am honored to read this story. I will hold it close to my heart and plan on passing gifted copies around on release day. Check out the playlist at the end of the book, the donation links, and make sure you read the dedication as well. You wont want to miss a single word of F U Cancer. Amazing ….

Amy's 4.5 star ARC Review of Liar Liar by Kasey Millstead

. . . Liar, Liar 

Makenna Banks is a 28-year-old, independent, professional woman who spends her days seeking the truth for her clients. She is tenacious and fuelled by events in her past, determined to bring hidden secrets into the light. 

. . . Pants On Fire 

Thrust into a life he didn’t imagine for himself, but unable to escape it, Benny Duncan immerses himself in his job to avoid his home life. With his future mapped out for him from birth by a pair of controlling parents, more concerned about their social stature, than the happiness of their only son, he always knew he was destined for this life. It doesn’t mean he likes it, though. 

. . . Nose As Long 

In her search for the truth, Makenna has to put herself in sometimes-dangerous positions, going above and beyond for her clients. But what happens when a situation is not all it seems? What happens when love is thrown into the mix? 

. . . As A Telephone Wire. 

To do her job properly, Makenna has to get involved, but not too involved. It’s a fine line that she has managed to never cross. Until now. Until him. Benny Duncan will turn her inside out, changing the world as she knows it. She maybe powerful in all other aspects of her life, but Makenna is powerless against the biggest factor of all; true love. 


Liar, Liar is the brand new, suspense-filled, standalone romance from USA Today Bestselling Author, Kasey Millstead 

Liar Liar
Kasey Millstead
4.5 stars

Makenna Banks is 28 years old, independent, a professional investigator along side her best friend Matthew; making her money finding the truth for the people who chose to employ her. Fueled by her past, what Makenna looks for is liar; iars of a different kind; liars of the heart. 

Benny Duncan does nothing but go to the gym, go to work, and back to the gym. Home is somewhere that a person should feel loved. It’s a place where a man should not wait to go. Benny’s life was chosen for him. His life was orchestrated by his parents who were more concerned about their status in social circles than their son finding happiness. Pushed into a marriage he never wanted to a woman who is a nasty bitch, he puts all his energy into pushing his business to the number one spot. 

Regina wants out and the only way to make Benny pay an additional couple million dollars to her in the divorce she has to prove her so called husband is cheating. The problem is he hasn’t cheated and wont cheat. Regina Duncan wants to make sure she has an iron clad case against her husband in order to obtain that money she so deserves. Two million isn’t enough .. she needs four. Circles talk, and her circle says Makenna Banks is the best. If anyone can seal the deal for her its this “Banks woman.” .

Can Makenna turn a man into a liar or will her conscience lead her otherwise. Thus far she hasn’t been able to turn Benny Duncan’s head. How far will she go and at what cost? In truth, is Makenna the true liar….. 

This book was intriguing. I have read a few of the same genre recently but nothing to the tune of making a man who doesn’t have wondering eyes wonder … what a fabulous storyline. Heartbreaking as it sounds turning a man into a cheater its for the best. His wife is a brutal witch! OMGOSH! I love the way the characters evolved. This is a good one. Click it up! 

Thank you Kasey for the ARC. I love reading new authors and look forward for the next release! There is no cliffhanger friends. Read on! Review to post to Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets.

Amy's 4 star review of The Ride and Crash & Burn (Hell's Disciples MC) by Jaci J

*NEWLY EDITED & REVISED* 

Tank 
It had always been about the ride. My love for the ride is what fuels me. It’s what drives me. That freedom of the open road in front of you with not a damn thing holding you back is what I crave. 
I don’t need much, shit I don’t want much out of life. My bike, my club, my brothers, my money, and occasionally a warm and willing women in my bed is what I need. 
I liked my life that way. It works for me. I enjoyed the familiarity of it. But slowly things were changing. I can feel that change in the air. It's everywhere. There comes a point in your life where things just change. No matter how much I fight it. No matter how hard I hang on, it's changing. Whether by choice or not. For better or worse it gets turned upside down on its fucking head. The moment I laid eyes on her shit changed forever. Things were on their way to changing, but fuck if she didn't tip that shit right over. She hit me like a blow to the chest crippling me. Rocking my world. That girl completely blew everything I thought I wanted to shit. She took me on a wild ride and for better or worse she changed everything for me. 
Lil 
The loud rumble of pipes fills me with a sense of home. Deep gruff male voices remind me of nights spent sitting at the bar listening to the guys tell me stories. The smell of leather, grease, and smoke brings back memories of hot summer days spent around the compound. The sound of classic rock makes me want to dance. A group of rough and mean men makes me smile. Seeing a beautifully crafted bike makes my heart beat a little faster. A man in leather always makes me hot. The feel of the vibration through my body from a perfectly tuned bike takes me right back to my old life. Some things never change. Sometimes those things are never meant to change. Although much hadn't changed since I left, a few things had. The loss of loved ones, the addition of new ones. With one new addition to life things changed for me forever. My life will never be the same. He changed it all.

The 2nd book to “The Ride” in The Hell’s Disciples MC Series 

It's a constant battle between us now. I give, and he just takes, and we can't go on like this. 

Saying that we've been through a lot is an understatement of a lifetime. After everything that we had overcome, we were here, together and alive. 

In the aftermath of all the devastation we had endured, I find myself fighting a new, yet different battle with the one person who came to save me because he loved me that much. This is the man that now fights me. 

He's not the same man since my attack and I don't think that man will ever come back to me. He is becoming my worst nightmare, but I will not give up on us, no matter what he tries to do... 


I want to hate her as much as I love her, and I'm willing to take from her 'till she has nothing left to give, 'till it ends up killing us both. 

I push her away, but I keep pulling her back 'cause I don't know how to fucking let her go. I love her so much, it physically hurts. I can't look at her, I can't touch her and I can't even stand to fuck her. I can't give her anything anymore, and I hate myself for it. 

I keep her here, knowing I don't deserve her, but I'm gonna keep hurting her. I know I'm gonna lose her and she's gonna hate me, but I'll be damned if I can let her be without me, no matter how bad this shit will get... 
What do you do when you just can't find your way back from so much pain? You share it, and you will make it hurt. 

18+ Due to dirty fucking language, hot sex, and a little bit of drugs and alcohol!

** Review of book one and two ** 

Lilly Cruz grew up in the MC life. She left after she felt betrayed by the boy she loved. She didn’t blame her father Low for having him put in the ground. He betrayed her family, he betrayed her and that gets you a bullet to the head. Her father has never blamed her for leaving and he has never asked her to come back until now. After the loss of her mother, her Dad needs her home. Packing up Lil finds herself back at the clubhouse among the men she loves the most. Walking into church she beams at the familiar faces, the men who helped raise her, the men who loved her and worshiped her mother Lucy. As she scans the room, blue eyes catch her line of sight. Needing to stand tall, she acts like the new addition doesn’t affect her but she has never laid eyes on anyone like him. Tank is his name …. 

Tank has heard of her but sitting in church he never thought she would come strolling in and mold herself into his club president. Before this moment he has never needed anything but the club that he is VP of, his bike, and the occasional warm body in his bed for the time it takes to satisfy his needs …. The woman who just walked through those doors just changed his life. 

These two books are one heck of a story. The Ride did carry on a little long for me which is why I gave it a 4 star rating. I did feel as if there should have been more detail to the chaos that was being built up throughout the pages concerning Draco and his crew. Unless I missed something I was interested in more detail of Lucy’s murder. What I really did love was that Jaci took the time to give great description of the characters we will continue to find running on the pages and further releases. I was able to make a list of who was who for easy reference if needed as the series continues. When you read as many books as Tracy and I do it’s a must! 

I am very interested in a few family members stories including Gin and Stitch. I loved Lilly’s best friends, California (love the name) and Peaches. There is an amazing friendship there and another love story woven into the read between Peaches and Gin. 

The “hard” MC story is rated PG. If you love MC but do NOT like the gruesome detail that some depict this series is a keeper for you. I would say there are no triggers in these reads either making this a perfect click. 

Crash and Burn moves onto Lil and Tank’s hardships after the “incident.” This is a shorter read but necessary as it moves through AFTER …… (no spoilers). Frustrating as it was to read it was a brilliant move on Jaci’s part. Everything is not hunky-dory. That’s all Im saying … however by the end of book two your heart will be in one piece and you will leave with a smile. 

Click these two books up and immerse yourself into the family. You wont regret it. Thank you Jaci for the chance to read and review. I'm moving on to the next two. I was thrilled to see all of the current releases and new one to come appear on my Kindle! Review to post to Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets. 

Amy's 5 heart breaking brilliant star Review of The Rage (Hell's Disciples MC #3) by Jaci J

The Hell's Disciples MC Series book 3 

They say love comes in all shapes and sizes, and is found in the most unexpected places. I wasn't looking for anything when I knocked on that big, wooden door, but what I got was a rude ass, leather wearing biker who made me feel, and want things I never thought were possible. 

Rampage is crude, rude, and tough. He’s everything I’m not, but he’s everything I need. He’s my strength when I’m weak, my shoulder to lean on when the weight of my world gets too heavy. He’s my voice when I don’t have one, and he holds me up when I need it the most. 

Love is for the weak. It does nothing but hurt your pathetic feelings, break your weak little heart, and give you the worst f*****g headache of your life. If you let that shit in, it will break what was never broken in the first place, and now it's trying to sneak in and break me. A little smartass angel has found a way to work her way in without permission, wreaking havoc on my rule of never loving anyone. 

Lailah is the soft to my hard, the social to my antisocial, the innocent to my corrupt, and the sweet to my mean. She’s the eternal optimist when it comes to love, and without even knowing she's doing it, she’s trying to make me a goddamn believer. I may not believe in love, but I do believe in Lailah. She’s the calm to my rage, and that is what I do I believe in. 

90,000+ Words. 
18+ Due to language, some blood, sex, & a little drug use

The Rage (Hell's Disciples MC #3) 
Jaci J. 
5 heart breaking brilliant stars

The Hell's Disciples MC Series book 3 -- If you have triggers from reading about abuse and violence against women do not click this book up. 

Rampage (Jameson) … Lailah (Lala) Ray….. The Rage …. I could leave that statement alone right there and say “boom” -- five stars – click it – read it – let these two own you for the time it takes to travel the torturous road with them because you WONT put it down. Jaci J … you killed it. 

Rampage is harsh, dangerous and claims he cant love. He doesn’t want what Tank or Gin has. He will never take an Old Lady, a wife … not for him. Love is weak, idiotic and makes a man into a p**sy. Something that he is not or ever will be no matter who thinks they can tame him. Its not that he gives these women hope because he doesn’t. In fact he only dips into “gash” on occasion as he has more important things to do like keep his family safe. Rampage is the muscle of the club. Tank shouting for him to baby sit Lil’s friend when she shows up while he gets his rocks off with the love of his life is a nuisance …. Who knocks on an MC door … ? … Who does that crap? Swinging it open he shouts “Welcome to Hell … “ and in hell he finds an angel standing before him. Lailah .. ?? no … from now on her name is Lala. LOVE THAT! -- Swoon! Jaci does an absolutely incredible job of her description throughout the book of Rampage and how he looks …. A beautifully scarred man with no apologizes … yes … just yes … 

Lala cant believe she let Lil talk her into coming to the MC party but its better than being at home … Deciding to be brave she knocks on the door only to be welcomed to hell and find the most gigantic beautiful crude and amazing man standing before her. The magnificent creature before her would become her savior; she wasn’t looking to bring anyone into her darkness but she needs him. Letting the weight of the world fall from her shoulders and balance on him is a gift yet how can she free herself from all of it without hurting the only family she has ever known and come to love. She must protect them even if it means her life. Lala is one heck of a warrior … she is radiance and chooses her over being destroyed ... until she cant anymore ... that’s just about all Im saying. 

OMY LORD … Jaci J … this series has taken on an entire new life and direction. I liked The Run and Crash and Burn but you have outdone yourself with The Rage; Lala and Rampage’s story. My heart was completely destroyed. As it was falling apart I was grabbing the pieces trying desperately to breathe in long slow breaths telling myself it was going to be alright. At about 11:45 last night I was in bed reading whispering .. No, No, NO …. My husband sprung up and said .. what … whats wrong .. after seeing the glow of the KINDLE he smiled and said nevermind .. LOL! …. You broke me, you put me back together and broke me again … I never in my life saw the train derailing and plowing me over like it did. 

THIS BOOK IS BRILLIANT! Click it up friends. It is not required you read the first two books in the serious but I suggest you do. Knowing this MC family is something you don’t want to miss. Im moving on to my ARC of The Run … I hope my heart can take it. 

No spoilers but keep reading .. don’t give up. Tape your heart into your chest and move forward … Thank you Jaci for trusting me with these two characters. Lala and Rampage broke the mold ….

Amy's 5 star ARC Review of Blameless (Black Thorns #3) MC Biker Romance by Franca Storm

(This book can be read as a standalone, but characters from the previous books appear and situations/relationships from the first two are also referenced.) 

He never saw her coming. An angel doesn’t belong with a devil. 
Nothing will ever be the same…. 

Zeb “Runner” Wilkes has always been the wild playboy of Black Thorns MC. The shallow joker who spends his life partying and screwing. He never once imagined it would get tired. Until it does. When he steps in one night to protect shy diner owner, Sarah, he quickly realizes there’s more to her than he gave her credit for. But this down and dirty biker doesn’t do sweet and innocent. Or, so he thinks, until he gets a taste of her. Before long, he’s unable to maintain his own denial. He’s in trouble, because she’s on his mind. He wants more than a taste. But can a man like him really have a woman like her? 

Sarah Hughes has been living her life in peace, running her diner in Brockford. She keeps to herself and never lets herself get mixed up with any men, not after her awful past. But when her ex finds her and starts trouble in her diner, everything changes. Her biker crush steps in like a knight in shining armor. Her ex and his business partners turn out to be enemies of Runner’s club and the mutual threat throws her and the sexy biker together. 

Runner and Sarah find what they didn’t even realize they needed in each other. He gives her strength and brings out her fire. She becomes the only thing standing between him and absolute darkness. 

But when a blast from the past attacks Runner in the most sadistic way, their relationship is put in jeopardy. In the aftermath, he’s sent into a tailspin and being pulled into his old life. Can he hold on? Can Sarah bring him back from the edge? Or will he end up losing everything: the club, Sarah and even his life? 

BLAMELESS: MC Biker Romance (Black Thorns, #3)
Franca Storm
5 stars

Other books in the series: Reckless & Soulless – This book can be read as a standalone but I would recommend it … you need to meet Roxanna James, Ax, Smiter, Grit, Runner, Dealer, & Sarah in full force. These characters do appear in Blameless and reference to their relationships will make you appreciate what they have been through to get to where they are now.

Zeb “Runner” Wilkes has never considered settling down. In fact his hands have gotten him in trouble with Halle, the owner of Temptress one too many times that now he isn’t allowed to part take in much of anything with any of them. Being kicked out again by Halle, he finds himself in front of the flashing pink neon sign of “Sarah’s Place.” He knows her from being around Rox and Ax at a particular event. She is a shy and frail girl with several nervous habits making her way too bashful for Runner. Not that he is looking because he wont ever be but putting his junk into the closest and willing woman is getting tiresome. Happy to find peace and quiet at the diner in his corner booth Runner finds himself protecting Sarah as the past has found her and she looks terrified.

Sarah Hughes has finally been calm and uneventful, just how she likes it. Her past is nothing to write home about even if she had one. Finding herself making a tasty dinner for the handsome biker sitting alone she comes back out from the kitchen only to find herself eye to eye with the one person who can snuff out any hope of serenity.

Both of these characters are scarred but in different ways. Each need the other to find their reason to look for the sun. Eddie Torvin will ruin her. His dead black eyes will burn into her leaving her broken for the rest of her life. She cant bring this Runner but little does she know is Eddie is already linked to the club. Runner is pulled back into his own hell and this time he might just not come back from it because after twenty years; he is back to being nothing. Everything he fought to try to become is gone in one swift push.

There are some gut wrenching moments in this one my friends. You come to realize how hard Runner has clawed his way out of his past only to be pushed back in all while begging not to be. Sarah is his angel or at least wants to be. Her own past makes her a warrior but she will need to reach deep within herself to save not only her soul but also Runner’s.

Click this one up friends. If issues with drugs are a trigger for you please do not click this one up. If you have not read the previous two releases grab those as well. This is a wonderful, exciting and tremendously written series. Go click it …

Thank you for the ARC Franca! Keep them coming .. I'm in love with the Black Throns. Review to post to Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets
