I love discovering new authors, and I especially love it when the book turns out to be amazing. C.J Martín’s writing style is very unique, it has a lot of heart, and it's impossible not to feel it traveling through your senses, like a beautiful song.
I found Touching Down to be a very heartwarming story. The characters and the story had many layers, and as I read I found myself falling in love with both the story and the author.
Jax is a college football star. He lives and breathes football, nothing else matters to him. Until one day, he meets a beautiful girl inside the men’s locker room. Jax is not one to be obsessed or to be unexplainable interested in girls; only because they throw themselves at him on the daily, but this girl is different and he can’t wait to find out more about her.
Brooklyn is an artist, and she’s been commissioned a project with the school’s football team. She much rather be home, eating junk food and watching Netflix than to be painting for a bunch of hot jocks, but her teacher is practically forcing her to complete this project. When she meets Jax Walker and then he shows interest in her, she can hardly believe it, the man is a walking work of art, but even if she believed or accepted his advances, she could never be with him, her dark secrets would never let her.
Little by little Jax breaks down Brooklyn’s walls, but once he discovers her dark truths will he stay, or would he leave her broken-hearted just like everyone else in her life?
I loved everything about this book, I was so pleasantly surprised to have loved it as much as I did. The writing style of this author is superb, her story craft impeccable and the characters totally unforgettable. I would HIGHLY recommend this book to all my friends.
Kennedy Ryan has become one of my favorite authors. I find myself always craving her stories, and never wanting to miss one of 5 BIG BRIGHT Stars
Kennedy Ryan has become one of my favorite authors. I find myself always craving her stories, and never wanting to miss one of her books because her words always reach my heart. Block Shot is definitely another winner for me.
Banner and Jared were good friends during their last year of college. They both had a huge crush on each other, and when they finally acted on it, the timing was terrible, and the whole experience not only broke their friendship but it also marked who they would be in the future.
The animosity between them lasted almost a decade. They are both in the same business of representing athletes and work for rival firms.
Banner is a strong woman, beautiful, smart, but she has a lot of insecurities. Having to work on a male prominent business, she always makes herself work harder, to prove her worthiness as an agent, and she has succeeded. But when she’s around Jared she loses all control.
Jared never forgot about Banner. He’s made a career out of being an asshole and not showing his feelings, but when it comes to Banner, she is his weakness.
Life has unexpectedly thrown them back together, and it will not be an easy road for them to get back to what they once lost. They’ll both have to learn lessons, and it won’t be easy, but it definitely will be worth it; because those two are mighty hot together.
Kennedy Ryan always creates beautiful characters that are easy to understand and relate to. Banner being of Hispanic background, and a woman so honest to admit, and conquer her struggles, definitely resonated with me. She was a true star. Someone in who I can see myself. So many times, perhaps every day I struggle with my weight, or body image. I’m insecure about so many things, but reading about this character it reminds me that I’m not alone. I know we all go through that, trying to get comfortable in our own skin, fighting for a place in life, and it's not easy. This author not only writes beautiful love stories, but she is also a huge inspiration and an example of female empowerment. That is always her message, her contribution to her readers; to love ourselves, to support one another, to fight for what we want and not limit ourselves. I’m also not mad that she can write incredibly sexy romances, that we all enjoy. *wink
I adored the first book in this series, and this second installment was simply FANTASTIC! I loved it!!!!!
Before I end this review I wanted to share my favorite quote in this book, one that not only inspires me but also I will never forget.
”Banner is completely mine and wholly her own. I love that about her.�
I mean, if you don’t see that as greatness, I truly don’t know what is. Amazing! I truly hope everyone reads this book.
Hot hockey players, an awesome and strong heroine, and a fun and sexy plot, plus the five-FOUR HOT STARS****
I loved it! I loved it, and I Loved it!!!
Hot hockey players, an awesome and strong heroine, and a fun and sexy plot, plus the five-star writing of Elle Kennedy, make this book a wonderful summer read.
Summer is a beautiful girl with an amazing personality, but people are always judging her by her looks. People normally think Summer is a spoiled rich girl who is used to getting everything she wants because of her good looks. But the truth is she always has to work harder than most, to fight the preconceived notions people have of her. This also has messed up with her inner confidence.
Fitz is the sexy, but quiet hockey player who is always trying to fly under the radar. Ever since he was a kid he hated confrontation or any attention on him. He likes the simple and quiet life, that's until he meets Summer.
Fitz and Summer met when she transferred from Brown to Briar University. From the moment they saw each other, the attraction was instant. Summer being her awesome self, immediately made her intentions known to him, but he was a bit skeptical. The fact that they are so different makes Fitz nervous, so he is constantly pulling away from Summer, even though he really wants to be with her.
Summer feels like her life is a constant chase, and for once she wishes Fitz would be the one going after her. Will she get tired of Fitz's constantly hot and cold personality, or will they just burn into the passion that is always hot between them?
This was a fantastic read and I cannot wait for more books in this series.

Nothing better than a super hot athlete and a sassy heroine, written by the talented Samantha Towle to keep me entertained and make my heart dance.
Ari’s life is very complicated. She got fired from her job, recently got a DUI and is fresh out of rehab. It’s been hard finding a new job once you have a police record, but lucky for her, her father is the coach for the New York Giants football team and has given her a job. Ari is an artist, one that hasn’t painted in a long time but an artist nonetheless, and she hates football, so she has no clue what she's going to do at this new job. But she is desperate for a second chance, and she might just find it in the arms of the star quarterback of the team.
Ares Kincaid is the golden boy of football. Gorgeous, kind and almost too perfect. But the moment he meets Ari he has nothing but bitterness towards her, making her feel less than, and not deserving of the second chance she desperately wants. The problem is Ares is actually very attracted to Ari, their chemistry is hot off the charts but trust issues might dampen the chances of love growing between them.
This story is really sweet but also passionate. I loved Ari's character, she was strong, and even when she felt down, she would get right back up. Ares was just YUMMY and HOT. They make the perfect couple. This was a delicious page-turner that I’m sure everyone will love.
L.H Cosway and Penny Reid make a fabulous team when they create stories together. I love their books separately, and tFive +++ Crazy-Fun Stars***
L.H Cosway and Penny Reid make a fabulous team when they create stories together. I love their books separately, and together they are like peanut butter and chocolate, just wonderful when combined. This fourth book in the rugby series was total fun for me, when I say this, I mean I was laughing throughout the entire read. This book was full of sexy times and belly laughs, which again, for me is the perfect combination.
William Moore is the good guy of the Rugby team. He doesn’t drink much, doesn’t date, is always polite and always a gentleman, but he does have a secret, and it's threatening to sabotage his perfect career. Josey Kavanagh is a twenty six year old girl that still lives at home. Josey is genuinely happy to live at home with her parents, she lacks social interaction because she’s always with them and her tiny dog Rocky. Her parents are seeing their mistakes in coddling Josey too much, and they tell her it's time to go on her own and find her own life, outside in the real world.
Will is looking for answers to fix the big scandal that he is causing for the team, and he thinks living alone is just not doing him any favors; he needs a companion, someone honest to a fault that will keep him away from trouble. Josey needs a place to stay, and a job, so when Bryan, Will’s teammate offers the solution of them being roommates, both Will and Josey accept.
These two couldn’t possibly be more opposite. Where Will is quiet and composed, Josey is EXTREMELY talkative and a bit nutty. Will is immediately dazzled by Josey and her weirdness, he actually finds it endearing. Josey who is a bit of a horn-ball is immediately attracted by him but only in a sexual way. Their interactions are pure, unadulterated fun. And then from fun, they turn into red-hot sexy. Both Josey and Will have problems admitting their true feelings and intentions towards one another, but lucky for us the road to a happy ending both literally and figuratively speaking, will be one hell of a crazy, and sexy ride.
Once again I love yet another book in this series. I don’t know anything about Rugby but I’m thinking about moving to Ireland to study the players, I mean the game, the game...*wink after reading this wonderful series.

I want to start my review by reflecting on how for years so many women have struggled in silence, trapped in abusive relationships or in bad situations that seemed impossible to escape. I’m very proud to be a woman in this day and age because every day I see more women coming out to fight and put a stop to the injustice. This female movement is powerful, and it keeps growing by the day. Long Shot is part of this campaign because it's a story that gives hope, strength and inspiration, about how you CAN do it, you CAN escape, change, and even help others, even through your own suffering. Don’t let the pain and the hurt define you. You are more, you deserve more.
This is truly an important and beautiful story.
One night at a sports bar a boy meets a girl. Both full of dreams, both with a bright future ahead. Their chemistry undeniable, but their attraction cursed by very bad timing.
August never forgot about the beautiful Iris. Other than playing basketball he’s never wanted anything more than to be able to kiss her lips. And Iris saw in August’s eyes everything she’s always wanted but her heart belonged to another, at least she was fooled into believing it did.
Throughout the years, pain and darkness descended into Iris’s life. The once full of life and strong-willed girl had slowly disappeared, but inside her heart, there was a tiny light of hope, fueled by love and hope of finding herself one day again.
No matter the time, the money, or the fame August never stopped loving Iris. Will their timing ever be right, or will they both always be afraid to finally take the shot?
This book truly felt like a gift. I loved it beyond measure. It was perfect, it was cruel, it was raw but so beautiful....more

Matthew Grant was perhaps given too much, too soon, and now he has a reputation as the bad boy of hockey. He messed up enough times that we was let go from his team, but his incredible talent doesn't go unnoticed for long, and another team wants to hire him but not without a few conditions.
Karrie has had everything she could possibly want. But now that she's graduated from college with honors, she wants to start her career on her own merits, but her father has other plans. Her dad has recently hired Matthew Grant to play for their team but he needs someone to watch out for him so he doesn't get into any trouble, and that pesky job has fallen into Karrie's hands. She's not to thrill to accept her father's proposition, but she recognizes the big opportunity it represents for her future career.
Matthew is not too happy to have somebody breathing on his neck, but when he meets Karrie; a gorgeous girl who's not willing to put up with his BS he is smitten.
