A Kiss for a Kiss by Helena Hunting (All In #4)

 

💗💗💗💗💗

The best in the series so far! A Kiss for a Kiss brings all of your favorite characters together again, for the story you've been waiting to be told. For the full reader experience, you need to read A Secret for a Secret before reading this book.

Finally, a mature second chance romance that those of us over 40 can relate to! The characters are ones I've already grown attached to in the previous book, so I was more than ready for Hannah and Jake to finally get their HEA.

With very minimal drama (which I greatly appreciate), and the perfect mix of romantic comedy, this would be a great summer read.

SUMMARY:

I'm Jake Masterson, single dad, and the General Manager of Seattle's NHL team. I walked away from a career as a player so I could raise my daughter. For the last twenty-plus years, Queenie has been my main priority, but now she's getting married.

And there's a small complication.

A beautiful, sexy complication named Hanna.

She's my son-in-law's older sister. Or at least that's how they were raised. The truth is a little more scandalous than that.

I've been drawn to her from the moment I laid eyes on her. And I spent months trying to keep a lid on that attraction.

Until we finally give in.

It starts with one searing kiss, but quickly ends with us between the sheets -- and in the shower, and the hot tub, you get the picture -- and turns into months of sneaking around.

Here's the problem: we live on opposite ends of the country. It can't be anything but casual. And as I've already said...it's complicated.

But when Hanna finds out she's pregnant...suddenly things get real serious.

A Secret for a Secret by Helena Hunting (All In #3)

💜💜💜💜💜

Queenie and King are royalty in my heart! A Secret for a Secret is my favorite in the All In series so far. A great sport romance that introduces you to your new favorite pairing.

After Queenie loses her job, she drowns her sorrows and ends up having a one-night stand. Names are exchanged, but she leaves him with a momento and a note, but nothing else.

Kingston's entire world turns out to be a lie, so he does what anyone would do, turns to alcohol to numb the pain for a few hours. What he doesn't expect is the one girl who rocked his world, to appear in his life again.

Queenie is determined to make her father proud and be the best assistant she can, but her world is turned on its axis when she discovers "Ryan" is really the newest goalie for her the NHL team her dad manages.

The one thing Queenie had to agree to was not to date any of the players on the team, so she's adamant about keeping her distance from King, even though their chemistry is off the charts and he's very persistent.

This story has minimal drama (ex's and family), plenty of romance, and the best banter! A delightful romantic comedy that you won't be able to put down.

💋 Romance

SUMMARY:

My name is Ryan Kingston, and I'm a rule follower. I've never been in a fistfight. I always obey the speed limit. I don't get drunk, and I definitely don't pick up random women at bars.

Except the night I found out that my whole existence has been a lie.

I got drunk. And I picked up a stranger.

Her name was Queenie, and she was everything I'm not: reckless, impulsive, and chaotic. We did shots and traded secrets. And ended up naked at my place.

She left me a thank-you note in the morning and her panties as a parting gift. But no way to contact her.

Six weeks later I'm sitting in the first official team meeting of the season, and there she is. I neglected to mention that I'm the goalie for Seattle's NHL team.

And Queenie? Turns out she's the general manager's daughter.

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!

 💧 Drama
💋 Romance

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.

Handle With Care by Helena Hunting (Shacking Up #5)

❤❤❤❤❤

Handle With Care far exceeded my expectations! The perfect mix of family drama, romance, and an underlying mystery. This series just gets better with each book!

The best part of reading each consecutive book in a series, is being able to visit characters that you've previously fallen in love with. It's like visiting a family reunion that you never want to leave.

I couldn't put this down as the story unraveled, and my brain was constantly trying to figure out the secret behind all the deception. As secrets and events from the past unfold, you can't help but feel for both Linc and Wren, as their lives are turned upside down.

The author did an amazing job of weaving the storyline and keeping me guessing until the truth was revealed, and even then I was still stunned and captivated as to how everything would unfold. I absolutely loved this book from start to finish!

Summary:

He wants to lose control.

Between his parents' messed up marriage and his narcissistic younger brother, Lincoln Moorehead has spent the majority of his life avoiding his family. After the death of his father, Lincoln finds himself in the middle of the drama. To top it all off, he's been named CEO of Moorehead Media, much to his brother's chagrin. But Lincoln's bad attitude softens when he meets the no-nonsense, gorgeous woman who has been given the task of transforming him from the gruff, wilderness guy to a suave businessman.

She's trying to hold it together.

Wren Sterling has been working double time to keep the indiscretions at Moorehead Media at bay, so when she's presented with a new contract, with new responsibilities and additional incentives, she agrees. Working with the reclusive oldest son of a ridiculously entitled family is worth the hassle if it means she's that much closer to pursuing her own dreams. What Wren doesn't expect is to find herself attracted to him, or for it to be mutual. And she certainly doesn't expect to fall for Lincoln. But when a shocking new Moorehead scandal comes to light, she's forced to choose between her own family and the broody, cynical CEO.

Making Up by Helena Hunting (Shacking Up #4)

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Making Up will have you in tears from laughter, literally from the very first page! Helena Hunting is one of my favorite RomCom authors, and this book is the perfect example as to why.

While I love how witty and charming her characters are, the best part is they don't have a filter, and that's a rare treasure these days.

Cosy and Griffin are from two very different worlds, with a bit of an age gap, and yet, it's clear to everyone but them how perfect they suit each other.

There's just enough drama and romance to break up the humor (or else you'd stroke out from laughing SO hard), and plenty of swoon worthy moments.

Ignoring the fact that I wanted to run over a certain character (or two) with a fancy car, I'm still smiling just thinking about how much I loved this story.

If you're looking for a feel good book, that you'll be talking about with your friends, look no further than Making Up!

Summary:
Cosy Felton is great at her job - she knows just how to handle the awkwardness that comes with working at an adult toy store. So when the hottest guy she's ever seen walks into the shop looking completely overwhelmed, she's more than happy to turn on the charm and help him purchase all of the items on his list.

Griffin Mills is using his business trip in Las Vegas as a chance to escape the broken pieces of his life in New York City. The last thing he wants is to be put in charge of buying gag gifts for his friend's bachelor party. Despite being totally out of his element, and mortified by the whole experience, Griffin is pleasantly surprised when he finds himself attracted to the sales girl that helped him.

As skeptical as Cosy may be of Griffin's motivations, there's something about him that intrigues her. But sometimes what happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas and when real life gets in the way, all bets are off. Filled with hilariously awkward situations and enough sexual chemistry to power Sin City, Making Up is the next standalone in the Shacking Up world.
