Cover Design: Sybil Wilson/Popkitty Design

Mantrum: An emotional outburst or an expression of anger by an adult man.
I’ve never understood the attraction women have for an alpha male, until I meet single father, Rex Winters.
Tall, chiseled, and persistent, he tries to avoid a parking ticket by asking me out to dinner. But I know men like him. He’s a repeat offender--habitually getting into trouble and always ready to sweet talk his way out of it.
But his charm won’t work on me.
Not when he’s the reason I’m forced to attend a six-week anger management class. And especially not when I find out all six feet two inches of Rex and his two hundred pounds of sexy muscle will be joining me every single time.
It doesn’t matter how much he flirts, or how attracted to him I am. I’m the girl who enforces rules for a living and he’s the guy who breaks them.
Do opposites really attract?
I guess we're about to find out.


🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Clever title aside, this one has all of the elements we love in romance, all extremely well done, and its just so doggone fun to read. Rex Winters is a bit of a hot head (some might call him a rage-aholic) and Danika Putnam is less than impressed upon their first meeting. Not only does he try to charm his way out of the parking ticket she's writing him, but Rex gets into an altercation with another man while defending Dani's honor, which she's perfectly capable to doing herself, thank you very much. 

When they both end up in the same anger management class, Rex seizes the opportunity to get to know the public servant who refuses to leave his mind. As they spend time together and the many layers of Rex are peeled back, Dani is more and more intrigued, and she begins to have trouble trying to convince her heart that Rex isn’t the man for her. 

This is a delightful slow burn romance with a cautious, reluctant heroine and a hero with a big squishy heart underneath all that temper, charm and cockiness. This book stands alone, but it looks like we'll be hearing more from the other Winters brothers, and heck yeah, sign me up! You'll fall for Rex in spite of himself, and his brothers are just as complex, compelling and swoon worthy. This is definitely one you don’t want to pass up. It’s laugh-out-loud funny, steamy and heartfelt, and an all around, feel-good read.

Where's My Slingshot When I Need It?

Alternate title: The Itty Bitty Reader Takes On the Marketplace Monopoly Giant If you do any advance copy reading of books or are in any book groups or authors’ groups on Facebook, you’ve probably seen authors and readers alike discussing their reviews disappearing from Amazon recently. Not long ago, all my reviews were deleted by Amazon, and I'll share some suggestions on what to do, should you find yourself in this situation, and some tips on how to hopefully avoid it happening to you in the future. Sadly, Amazon’s review system, especially for books, isn’t perfect and there are certainly abuses to it, but reviews really are critical to both authors and readers.  For authors, the more reviews their book has, the more notice it gets, which translates to more sales.  For readers, reviews hopefully give us accurate information so we can decide if a book is worth our time and money or if we should just move along to the next one. I’ve been reading advance copies and re...

Vivian Lux IS Theresa Leigh, With a Great New Romance!

Image
Last Good Man (A Crown Creek Standalone) by Theresa Leigh (aka Vivian Lux) Synopsis: Cooper Grant is not my type.  Yes, he’s drool-worthy, with that glint in his blue eyes and the jaw-dropping way he fills out his jeans. Yes, other women might fall all over themselves for a glimpse of his slow, crooked smile. I’m not other women. ​ He hates me. And the feeling is mutual. ​ In a town as small as ours, it’s pretty hard to avoid him...and it’s completely impossible once I wake up in a hospital bed to find Cooper pacing the floor of my room. ​ He’s rumpled.

One moment we’re fighting like usual, the next moment he’s kissing me and slipping a gorgeous ring onto my finger.
