Blaze: A Men of Inked Heatwave series Book 4

Lily Gallo prided herself on her pristine reputation.
A dedicated bookworm.
An awkward goody-two-shoes.
Lover of fiction more than reality.

Jet Michaels had always had a broken moral compass.
A cocky egomaniac.
An unashamed womanizer.
Craving adventure instead of responsibility.

Lily never expected to come face-to-crotch with her old high school crush, and she never dreamed he’d make her an offer she couldn’t refuse. But what was supposed to be a platonic arrangement quickly spiraled out of control.

Can the inexperienced nerdy girl tame the notorious player?
Or will he peel back her pages, exposing the wildcat hidden underneath?

I was lucky enough to receive Blaze as an ARC from the author. I have to say that I am loving The Gallo kids series. I was really wondering where she was going to go with Jet and Lily and what an interesting journey we went on!
I laughed out loud many times and would find myself feeling embarrassed for Lily, when she would inner monologue and sometimes let those thoughts fly! It really was funny! THANK YOU for not making Lily, a weak character. Her Daddy didn't raise a whimp! No, Miss Lily can take care of business!
Jet, on the other hand, I don't know, I just wanted more about him and his past. It was obvious via EVERYONE who saw him and would talk about what a "man whore" he is was in high school. I just wanted more drama to come from that. Other than Lily, thinking there was not way a guy as experienced as Jet would ever like her. But when they do finally get together Jet, is so loving and patient with Lily, he really endeared himself to me.
That ending left me with a complete, "WTF" moment and I am so excited for book 5!!!!! 

This series really is a lot of fun and good storytelling and I am in it as long as the author writes them!!!

Review based on book provided by the author

Run and Hide Book 2 in the Tactical Solutions International series by Maggie Clare

Special Agent Mike Flynn owes his friend a favor, and the instructions are clear. Find Lucia Costa. Keep her safe. But Lucia doesn’t want to be found. She’s investigating her brother’s brutal murder and trying to stay alive.

When the hot FBI agent knocks on her door in the middle of the night, Lucia has to admit, she needs his help. She’s out of money, on the run, and the files hidden in her motel safe could take down a deadly human trafficking ring.

As Mike and Lucia chase down the corrupt cops who betrayed Lucia’s brother, and work the case he died trying to solve, sparks fly. Gruff and jaded, Mike denies his feelings for the feisty grad student under his protection, but Lucia makes him want things he hasn’t in a very long time. With the danger closing in and time running out, Mike will risk everything to give Lucia her life back, and to have a chance at loving her.

Review

As this is a new to me author, I am thrilled at how much I enjoyed this story. I am now going back to check out book 1 in this Tactical Solutions series. 
I love the special relationship that Lucia shares/shared with her brothers. I also like the fact that Alex has zero hesitation call in a marker to Special Agent Mike Flynn. I enjoyed that Lucia was not a damsel in distress and could fend for her own. I loved the dynamic that boiled underneath the surface between Mike and Lucia. Giving into their mutual attraction is just half the battle with these two. The mutual respect that they have for one another is really a bright spot. Alex, is probably the most intriguing character and I am so excited for his story!

Binge Reading Author K. Webster

This is what I have been doing lately. Checking off the Taboo Series by Author

 K. Webster. These are HOT quick reads , I read 8 last week. I am enjoying them and had no idea the characters were interwoven in this series. It is a collection of what I call " connected standalones."  

I really enjoy a quick steamy read and The Taboo Series by K. Webster fills that slot !!!!
