LLL Recommends... Fighting For What's His by Laura Kaye


Buy
Resisting her only makes him want her more…

Private investigator Billy Parrish is good at three things—fighting, investigating, and sex. MMA training with the other vets in the Warrior Fight Club keeps his war-borne demons at bay—mostly, and one night stands ensure no one gets too close. But then his best friend from the Army Rangers calls in a favor.

Shayna Curtis is new to town and full of hope for the future. With a new job starting, she’s grateful when her brother arranges a place for her to stay while she apartment hunts. But she never expected her roommate to be so brooding. Or so sexy.

Billy can’t wait for Shay to leave—because the longer she’s there, the more he wants her in his bed. To stay. He can’t have her—that much he knows. But when fight club stops taking off the edge, Billy lets down his guard…and starts fighting for what’s his.

LLL Recommends... The Christmas Wishing Tree by Emily March

Sometimes life’s most magical journeys
A man who loves adventure and the open sea, Devin Murphy returns for a short Christmas trip to his small hometown of Eternity Springs. Immersed in the joy and magic of the holiday season all around him, he doesn’t hesitate to play along when a young boy phones Santa to ask for a very special wish. Devin never guesses that a wrong number has the potential to make everything in his life so right.  
bring you back to where it all began…  
Jenna Stockton adopted Reilly when he needed a mother and she intends to keep him safe. A small town across the country called Eternity Springs seems like a good place to hide from their past without any complications —until sexy Santa himself discovers her secrets. When Devin proposes a daring plan to face down the danger together and defeated it once and for all, she is tempted. Maybe Devin really is capable of making wishes come true?
 ____________________________________________________________________

Eileen's Thoughts
WOW!!! AMAZING!! I just loved, loved, loved reading The Christmas Wishing Tree by Emily March. Devin Murphy returns to Eternity Springs to spend a short Christmas visit with his family. After a phone mishap, he willingly plays along when a young  boy phones Santa to ask for a very special gift. Jenna Stockton adopted Reilly when he was in need of a mother and her life goal is to keep him safe; especially after an unknown person has been wreaking havoc on her life. Jenna figures that moving across the country to Eternity Springs would be a good place to hide from their past; at least until they are discovered by Devin and he learns their secrets. Devin creates an investigative team of Eternity Springs’ residents to find the person making life difficult for Jenna and Reilly.
Jenna’s strength helped her cope with her life demands and made her a wonderful mother. She feared that Reilly would never be able to live a normal life, enjoying school, making friends, or playing sports; but living in Eternity Springs, allowed for this. Devin was ruled by the sea. As much as he loved his family and life in Eternity Springs, he loved adventure and the open sea to get his blood running and make his living. Devin and Jenna had to work out their conflicts before a relationship could be established between them. Devin and Jenna never guessed that a wrong number would have the potential to make everything in their life so right.

Ms. March wrote a wonderfully sweet and moving story that is not to be missed. It was a story filled with sexual attraction, fun dialogue, and endearing characters; along with a baby boomlet in the town. Reading this story had me catching up with many of the residents of Eternity Springs, but you do not need to read the previous books to enjoy this one. I highly recommend this book to other readers and look forward to Emily March’s next book.

Buy
Will a first love get a second chance?
 
Zane Cates has fallen in love twice—once with flying, and once with Tori Rollins, the girl who stole his heart in high school. For a brief, shining moment, their future looked bright. Then the offer of a place at the Air Force Academy got between Zane and his beautiful young wife, and he found his marriage over as abruptly as a wave washing back to sea. After taking comfort in the wide open skies, he’s ready to return to the sunlit beach town of Barefoot William—and the woman he never wanted to leave behind. Starting over with Tori is the plan—if only his stubborn ex will have him . . .
A vagabond childhood left Tori shy and withdrawn, but after her family arrived in the pretty resort town, she made the first real friend she ever had—Zane. Opening up to him was a risk she didn’t regret taking, but she never looked back once she decided to end their brief marriage. Seeing him again now is a startling shock—and an irresistible temptation. Can she let him back into her life—and finally find joy in their love?

Lorelei's Lit Lair Recommends... His Perfect Partner by Priscilla Oliveras

   His Perfect Partner
by Priscilla Oliveras

Buy
Three very different Latina sisters. Three dazzling talents with ambition—and passion—to burn. And in this warm-hearted, sexy new series, three chances to figure out if the path to success can also lead to lasting love . . .
 
Ad executive Tomás Garcia shouldn't even be thinking about his daughter’s alluring dance teacher, Yazmine Fernandez. Burned by a shattering divorce, he's laser-focused on his career—and giving his young daughter, Maria, the secure home she deserves. Plus, he's certain that with her talent, Yaz will be leaving Chicago and heading back to Broadway as soon as she can. But Yaz's generous spirit and caring concern are sparking a desire Tomás can't resist—and doesn't want to let go . . .

For Yaz, good-looking workaholics like Tomás simply can't be part of her life ever again. She owes it to herself to get back her confidence and fulfill the dreams her papá could not. She's glad to spend time with Maria—and taste the family life she feels she can never have. And she’s sure that she and Tomás can keep their attraction under control because there's so much at stake. But each unexpected intimacy, each self-revelation, makes the fire between them grow hotter with every step—and every risk to their hearts . . .

The Duke With The Dragon Tattoo by Kerrygan Byrne ~Q&A and Excerpt

   The Duke With The Dragon Tattoo
by Kerrigan Byrne
Available Now on Amazon

The bravest of heroes. The brashest of rebels. The boldest of lovers. These are the men who risk their hearts and their souls—for the passionate women who dare to love them…

He is known only as The Rook. A man with no name, no past, no memories. He awakens in a mass grave, a magnificent dragon tattoo on his muscled forearm the sole clue to his mysterious origins. His only hope for survival—and salvation—lies in the deep, fiery eyes of the beautiful stranger who finds him. Who nurses him back to health. And who calms the restless demons in his soul…

A LEGENDARY LOVE

Lorelei will never forget the night she rescued the broken dark angel in the woods, a devilishly handsome man who haunts her dreams to this day. Crippled as a child, she devoted herself to healing the poor tortured man. And when he left, he took a piece of her heart with him. Now, after all these years, The Rook has returned. Like a phantom, he sweeps back into her life and avenges those who wronged her. But can she trust a man who’s been branded a rebel, a thief, and a killer? And can she trust herself to resist him when he takes her in his arms?

 ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q&A with Kerrigan Byrne
