A Lie for a Lie by Helena Hunting (All In #1)

❤❤❤❤❤

A Lie for a Lie is the perfect second chance romance! I've been getting a little burned out with romances lately, but give me a feisty and stubborn female lead, and I'm all in (no pun intended.)

When Lainey and RJ are reunited, I knew I wouldn't be able to put this book down until I finished. This can definitely be read as a stand alone, but it makes me want to read the entire Pucked series, just so I can appreciate some of the characters storylines more.

This was such a wonderful book from Helena Hunting, who is one of my one-click authors for a reason, and I can't wait for A Favor is a Favor!

Summary:
Sometimes I need an escape from the demands, the puck bunnies, and the notoriety that comes with being an NHL team captain. I just want to be the normal guy for a few weeks. So when I leave Chicago for some peace and quiet, the last thing I expect is for a gorgeous woman to literally fall into my lap on a flight to Alaska. Even better, she has absolutely no idea who I am.

Lainey is the perfect escape from my life. My plan for seclusion becomes a monthlong sex fest punctuated with domestic bliss. But it ends just as abruptly as it began. When I'm called away on a family emergency, I realize too late that I have no way to contact Lainey.

A year later, a chance encounter throws Lainey and me together again. But I still have a lie hanging over my head, and Lainey's keeping secrets of her own. With more than lust at stake, the truth may be our game changer.

The Truth About Cowboys by Lisa Renee Jones (Texas Heat #1)

💙💙💙💙💙

The Truth About Cowboys will make you swoon in your boots! Filled with delightful comedy, tender moments and secrets nobody wants uncovered.

Jessica attempts to make the best of a bad situation by renting a cottage in the country, but from the moment she arrives, her path crosses with the one person who doesn't want her there.

Jason wants to leave his glory days and fame in the past, but when a distraction arrives on his doorstep, he's anything but welcoming to her.

Grandma Martha is the highlight of the story and will keep you rolling in laughter with her meddling. She means for the best and will stop at nothing to see those she loves, happy.

Lisa Renee Jones has been an author I've enjoyed following, but I have to say that this is my favorite book of hers so far. I love the storyline, witty characters and I couldn't put it down until the last page. Loved it!

Summary:

When I was off pitching in the big leagues, my family was back in the small town of Sweetwater, Texas, running the family ranch. Then tragedy hit and I discovered there were secrets that my family kept, problems they hid. I went home, left behind the money, women, and fame. I took over the ranch and took care of my grandmother. I took over hiding the secrets. Then she came to town. A smart-mouthed, clumsy, too-smart-and-too-pretty-for-my-own-good city girl hiding out to write a book. She's right here, on my property, in the cottage my grandmother rented her without my permission, and she sees too much. She knows too much.

Now suddenly my world is spinning, and she's shoving a baseball back in my hand while baking cookies with my grandmother. She's the devil and an angel all in one fiery little package. I decide I'll wait her out. She'll go back to the city. Only suddenly I don't want her to leave, and everything I've settled for in my life isn't enough. I want to play ball and I want her, but there's that secret that won't let go, but neither will she.
