Demise of a Self-Centered Playboy by Piper Rayne (The Baileys #5)

📜📜📜📜📜

Demise of a Self-Centered Playboy will bring out the adventurer in you! Be prepared for witty banter and lots of laughter while reading this new addition to The Baileys series.

It took me a while to warm up to Cleo Dawson, as she comes off as cold-hearted at first, but once you witness her family dynamic, you'll understand more about what makes her tick.

Denver Bailey - I've been waiting (not so patiently) for his story, and it was more than I ever could've hoped for. He's no stranger to losing loved ones, but when his mentor passes away, it hits him hard.

The reality TV show was the perfect backdrop to witness Denver and Cleo's chemistry ignite. Neither of them will back down from their opinions and it just makes for a more lively story.

The character growth was the best part for me as a reader, and I loved watching Denver and Cleo each come into their own. I'll be the first to admit, this is my favorite book in the series so far, and that's a huge deal, considering how much I love this family! Another hit for Piper Rayne!!!

Summary:

You might be wondering how you'll know when your playboy ways are coming to an end. For some it might be an unexpected pregnancy (ahem...you know who), for others it might be finally landing the one woman you've always wanted (cough...I won't mention any names). For me, it was the death of my mentor and the subsequent reading of their will.

The signs were there, they always are. But I didn't notice them until it was too late, and my demise was complete.

Demise Sign #1 - You find yourself thrust into the land of responsibility and you don't immediately hightail it out of town.

Demise Sign #2 - Despite being stuck with the world's biggest Jekyll & Hyde, some sadistic part of you actually enjoys spending time with her.

Demise Sign #3 - Your family suddenly stops wanting to weigh in on every decision in your life.

Demise Sign #4 - Somehow you end up being the voice of reason in your tumultuous partnership.

Demise Sign #5 - You start thinking of other people before yourself.

Demise Sign #6 - You agree to put yourself in the middle of an Alaskan reality TV show that has both of you sleeping in the same tent.

Demise Complete.

Falling for my Brother's Best Friend by Piper Rayne (The Baileys #4)

❤❤❤❤❤

Savannah's story is everything I've been waiting for! I loved watching Liam slowly coax her out of the shell she's been in since her parents death, and in return, Savannah tries to break through his walls as well.

It's clear how much Liam cares for her, but he keeps his distance since she's not just another fling. All they did was make out after the reception and yet neither one of them can get the other one out of their head.

Grandma Dori is still the highlight of the story and as usual, the epilogue is the best part! The Bailey family is always there for each other, and I love how the characters are such an active part of the story, making you want to read the previous books in the series all over again.

 💧 Drama
💋 Romance

Summary:
Let's say you're an independent, self-sufficient woman who runs the family company and you find yourself falling for your little brother's best friend. Now, more than ever, you need to count all the reasons why you need to abandon falling.

Abandon Falling #1 - He's a womanizer. Hasn't had a serious relationship a day in his life and changes women more often than he changes his sheets.

Abandon Falling #2 - He's never serious. He cracks one-liners, mostly at your expense.

Abandon Falling #3 - When things go wrong, he seems unfazed and always remains in control. It's so annoying.

Abandon Falling #4 - He has tattoos. Lots of them. Everywhere. Not to mention, he owns a tattoo parlor. (Damn it! Why doesn't that sound like a bad thing anymore?)

Abandon Falling #5 - There's a growing list of how different you two are. You can't get along for fifteen minutes - a lifetime together would land one of you in prison.

Keep repeating those reasons and drown yourself in work. Pretend you don't notice his good qualities or how enticing he looks without a shirt, and do not, I repeat, do not agree to live with the man while your place is being repaired from flood damage.

Trust me, even the strongest of us can only forego temptation for so long.

Operation Bailey Wedding by Piper Rayne (The Baileys #3.5)

👰👰👰👰👰

Operation Bailey Wedding reunites your favorite members of the Bailey clan! Not only do you get to prepare for the wedding day of Austin and Holly, but you get tender moments with some of the other Bailey couples as well.

I love that there's a touch of drama in this story, but plenty of sexy times with a variety of couples from previous books. Of course, anything with Grandma Dori is going to put a smile on your face and wishing the Baileys could adopt you into their family.

If nothing else, this book will have you counting down the day (if not the hours) until Falling For My Brother's Best Friend releases in October!

Birth of a Baby Daddy by Piper Rayne (The Baileys #3)

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

I absolutely love the Bailey family and if they were real, I'd move to Lake Starlight in an instant! This entire series has been one book after another that I couldn't put down once I started.

I won't go too into detail and spoil the surprises that Piper Rayne has in store, but after the cliffhanger they left their readers with at the end of Advice from a Jilted Bride, you'll think the wait was worth it.

Harley Sullivan is a woman after my own heart. She's strong and fierce, but growing up in the foster system has definitely forced her to build some walls.

Growing up without a family, Harley is determined to not have her daughter suffer the same fate. She doesn't expect to find the whole Bailey clan welcoming her and Calista with open arms.

With each book, you dive into more of not only the Bailey character the book is focused on, but it invites you to learn more about the entire family. It's like a family reunion that you never want to leave. This book still puts a smile on my face every time I think about it!

Summary:
If you're having fun living your bachelor life in your Alaskan hometown and out of nowhere a woman shows up holding a baby she insists is yours, you needa plan-a birth plan.

BP Step #1 - Lift your jaw off the floor.

BP Step #2 - Figure out the baby's age - do the math.

BP Step #3 - Try to remember the woman and with any luck, her name.

BP Step #4 - Double check that she's not confusing you with your twin brother.

BP Step #5 - Ignore your five sister's scowls as your entire family watches the drama unfold.

There's only one thing you shouldn't do.

BP Step #6 - Don't assume she's there because she wants your daughter to call you Daddy. You'll only end up disappointed.

Time to figure out a new plan - one that changes her mind.

Advice from a Jilted Bride by Piper Rayne (The Baileys #2)

💙💙💙💙💙

The Baileys are fast becoming one of my favorite literary families! While each of these books can be read as a stand alone, they're definitely more enjoyable if you read the series in order. Each of the Baileys brings a different dynamic and history to their own story and I can't wait for the next one!

Lessons from a One-Night Stand by Piper Rayne (The Baileys #1)

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Be still my heart! Lessons from a One-Night Stand is by far, my favorite book by the fabulous duo of Piper Rayne. The first book in a new series about the Bailey family, will invite you to pull up a seat and join in on the fun.

Austin Bailey gave up his dream at the young age of 21 when his parents were killed, leaving his younger siblings in need of a parental figure. Fast forward 9 years and he's finally able to pursue his dream of being a collegiate baseball coach, but what he doesn't expect is the one-night stand he had, to rock his world as the new principal.

Sparks fly and the last thing Holly Radcliffe wants is to be the center of gossip in a town where she's trying to start fresh, all while dealing with family troubles of her own. 

This story was filled with laughter, romance, family drama and enough steam to cook a lobster! I can't wait for more books in The Baileys series, as this is one remarkable family (and town) that you'll want to revisit again and again.
