Skye by Kelsie Rae (Signature Sweethearts #8)

🤍🤍🤍🤍

Skye will win your heart! Two very different people from opposites sides of the tracks, come together to make the best of a bad situation...what could possibly go wrong?

Skye means well, and thinks she sees a different side to Liam, causing her to agree to the unthinkable. I love her faith in others and how she tries to see the good in everyone.

Liam is definitely the player you were always warned to stay away from, but you can't help but wonder what makes him act the way he does. Fair warning: You'll want to punch him at first, but I guarantee he'll win you over before the end.

The witty banter between Liam and Skye captured me from the beginning, and by then I was hooked to find out how the scenario would play out. Liam's little brother is by far by favorite scene stealer and I loved watching this story develop. Such a great addition to the Signature Sweethearts series!

Summary:

Skye
Walking down the aisle toward my arch enemy wasn't exactly what I was picturing when I planned out my dream wedding as a little kid. But as I take in his chiseled jaw and sexy smirk, I remember why I agreed to this sham of a marriage.

It's because I'm a glutton for punishment and love a good underdog story, and the more I get to know Liam, the more I can see that he's exactly that.

The underdog.

I just hope I'm not wrong about him.

Liam
Marriage is a load of crap and my dad knows it, which is why he insisted I find a wife if I ever wanted to touch my inheritance.

Little does he know, I don't have a problem getting my hands dirty in order to get what I want. And if I have to use my little brother's nanny to prove it, I will.

Besides, the girl drives me insane. It's not like we have anything in common other than our mutual disdain for each other.

This'll be a walk in the park.

I hope.

Dark King by Kelsie Rae (Advantage Play #2)

❤❤❤❤❤

Dark King is a thrill ride I could stay on forever! Have you ever encountered a series that you wish you could forget, just so you could read it all over again like it's the first time. THIS is how the Advantage Play series feels!

Filled with plot twists, deceptions and characters you don't know if you can trust - this book will keep you turning the page faster than you can read. (Try not to be a douche and send the author crazy messages when you're done - yes, I'm that person.)

The race to try to save King's sister from the enemy and Ace's friend who mysteriously disappeared is all blended perfectly with the anticipation of a showdown that could mean the end for King and Ace.

This series just gets better with each book and I have a countdown on my phone for when the third book releases. For someone who writes such sweet and tender romances, Kelsie Rae sure knows how to bring you to the dark side, and make you want to stay!

Summary:
Rule #5: Don't allow distractions. They'll only break you.

In the blink of an eye, Kingston Romano's entire world has fallen apart. His sister is in the hands of a rival mafia family, and his only hope of getting her back is by making a wager that includes the mysterious Acely Mezzerich.

Unfortunately for King, his feelings for Ace only escalate the longer he's around her, muddling his conscience as well as his arrangement with the enemy. And if he has any hope of saving his sister and keeping Ace, he needs to execute it perfectly.

As the pieces start to fall, he'll have to learn who he can trust and who needs to be eliminated before it's too late.

Wild Card by Kelsie Rae (Advantage Play #1)

❤❤❤❤❤

Wild Card is a story worth betting all your money on! Kelsie Rae writes sweet romances, but man did she knock the Mafia genre out of the friggin park with this one!!!

As an avid fan of NCIS, I was immediately sold with the rules that Ace lives by. Her strength and ability to read people is admirable, and you can't help but fall for her the more King gets to know her.

Ace and Kingston's chemistry will have you begging for something to ignite between them, and the gentleness of the Mafia King will have your heart swooning. I'm digging into Dark King right now, I can up the coffee intake tomorrow, lol.

I enjoyed the secondary characters, mainly due to their air of mystery, always keeping you guessing how their tied into the plot, and if they're going to turn into a villain or hero at some point.

My eyes are burning while typing this, cuz I wasn't able to stop reading, once I started the book 5 hours ago...not even for bathroom breaks...fair warning, be prepared to forgo everything once you begin this journey.

Summary:

Rule #1: Keep your head down and your eyes up. It makes you invisible. But not stupid.

Ace, a young cardshark, has worked her entire life to achieve one goal. Bring Burlone Allegretti to his knees. As the head of a mafia family who dabbles in human trafficking, he's far from innocent, and Ace can't wait to exact her revenge.

As her plan is set in motion, the alluring head of a rival family, Kingston Romano, approaches her with a proposition. One that she's desperate enough to accept.

Soon, she finds herself in the crosshairs of a war she isn't prepared to fight. With a target on her back, and intimate feelings she refuses to acknowledge, she'll have to decide if she's all in, or if she'll be taken for all she's worth.

Anthony by Kelsie Rae (Signature Sweethearts #7)

💗💗💗💗

Kelsie Rae has a way of inviting the reader into the story with her writing, and holding your heart hostage. Anthony is a heart-warming, second chance romance you won't soon forget!

When two people with broken pasts cross paths with one another, you can see their walls are up to prevent any future heart break.

Anthony's past relationship has broken him and shattered every dream he's known for the majority of his life. The DUI was a wake-up call for where his life is headed if he doesn't change his destructive ways.

Throughout the story, Sway hints that she's unable to have a normal relationship due to something traumatic in her past. She has a special place in my heart and I enjoyed her playful banter with Anthony.

Pretty much anything that includes animals, especially rescues, has an automatic grip on my heart. This is my favorite in the series so far!

Summary:

Anthony

Being responsible hasn't gotten me anywhere in life. My girlfriend left me for another guy. My career is over. I feel like I've lost everything.

Then I meet Sway Swenson.

She's sexy, fun, spontaneous, has zero inhibitions, and thinks relationships are a waste of time, just like me. She's perfect for getting me back into the game without looking for anything serious. The only problem? She's hiding something, and the longer I hang around her, the more I want to uncover her secret. If only she'd let me.

Sway

I don't do relationships. A crippling experience in high school was enough to make me avoid them like the plague.

Then I meet Anthony Wright.

Everything is fine until he decides to take off his stupid shirt and gives me a glimpse of his washboard abs. When he suggests hot and sweaty sex with no strings attached, I'm stupid enough to jump in with both feet. Yup. I fall for his ludicrous idea, but I refuse to fall for the man himself.

Even if he does make me curious about what life could be like if I wasn't broken.

Sophie by Kelsie Rae (Signature Sweethearts #5)

💖💖💖💖💖

My first read by this author and definitely NOT my last! A wonderful romantic comedy about Sophie Calloway, who gives her heart and virginity to Nathan, only to have him walk out and move away, literally to another state.

Nathan doesn't believe in love, as shown by example with his parents, so he develops a rule of never be with someone twice and absolutely no relationships. A month later, they're brought back together as members of their friends spontaneous bridal party, and chaos ensues.

A delightful story with witty characters that'll have you laughing right along with them! I'm going back to the beginning of the series to catch up on this entertaining group of friends and protective family members. This is a must read for any fan of romantic comedy!
