Uniquely Mine

A Fitz Series

When the latest string of murders, sweeping New York City, lands on Detective Fitzgerald S. Rodriguez’s desk, the signature evidence hits too close to home. Being unable to stop the murder of
his own mother has made Fitz a jaded man. Now he will stop at nothing to protect the one he loves.

Serial killer, Mark Chambers, is like a cat that preys on unsuspecting mice for sport. When a fresh kill no longer quenches his sexual appetite, he sets his sights on Makenna Justice. The fiery-redhead, with her emerald green eyes, ignites a fire in him that he hasn’t had since his first kill.

Time is of the essence for all three of them.

Mark must feed into his desires once more without leaving a
trail.

Fitz has to dig himself deep into a killer’s mind to catch
him.

And Makenna?—She just has to stay alive.


This was a 1st read for me from Theresa Sederholt and I have to say, she got her hooks in me good!

Just when I thought I had it figured out, BAM!

For most people, when they get bored in their lives or marriage, they leave. They don't string a web of lies and murder with them, no matter how much you despise your wife and "kid" you were hooked into having. Not for Mark Chambers. 

Makenna was the perfect woman in Marks eyes. He wanted her like no other. However, Fitz was NOT letting that happen on his watch. 

Pick up this amazing start to a series and see where your mind goes. I promise you won't be disappointed.

I wasn't!!!






Women make it so easy for me. They think I’m broken and want to fix me. I let them try, but I’m not broken, so there is no fix for me. I have a need that only they can fill. I need to feel my hands around their throat, feel their bodies come to life with every smack on their ass. Every gasping breath makes my cock harder. If I close my eyes, I can feel each pulse of my blood surging forward. Women see me as the bad boy. The boy that needs to be rescued. They are the ones that need to be rescued—rescued from me. This one tonight is no different. New York, just another city filled with desperate women. It never ceases to amaze me how women are so nurturing. I’m beyond redemption, beyond repair and that suits me just fine.



I was born in Brooklyn New York. I am old enough to know there is no luggage rack on the hearse. I am married to a Professional Chef. I have a son who is a Research Chemist and a wine maker. Yep I'm covered from the food to the drinks. I have 2 dogs Vito and Godiva. I live in the United States. I've had so many different jobs, even I can't keep count.

I believe if you give a girl has espresso and Nutella she can change the world!

*~*~* Blog Tour *~*~* Pulled Torn Book 2 by A.F. Crowell














SYNOPSIS:




NEW BEGINNINGS




E.R. nurse Leila Matthews’s whole life turned upon one single sentence: “Brody, I’m pregnant.” What she thought would be the happiest day of her life became a nightmare as she was abandoned by the father of her soon-to-be-born child. If her friend Jaxon wasn’t there to pick up the pieces, she couldn’t have coped. Then what had started out as a deep and abiding friendship became a soul-searing love. 




Yet, while Jaxon is the man of her dreams, Leila doesn’t want her child to grow up not knowing its father. The situation, a triangle involving tortured pasts and unstoppable passion, will test everyone involved. Both suitors will seek forgiveness for terrible mistakes, and Leila will soon be pulled between two powerful men: a handsome CEO who owns all he surveys, and an ex-soldier whose M.C. teeters on the brink of the unforgivable. Leila must choose the man who is perfect for her future…and for the future of her child.




Pulled by A.F. Crowell

I was given an ARC of this book for my honest review. This is one HOT trio.  Brody, Jaxon, and Leila is a fiery intense love triangle.  Leila, a nurse that finds herself in love with two opposite kind of guys.  She is in love with a very hot biker who tries to show her he will always be there for her, but seems to be doing the dissappearing act more frequently lately.  Brody on the other hand, a handsome bachelor finally realizes what he has walked away from and shows up as the knight in shining armor while Jaxon is away harboring secrets. Both men have hidden pasts that are bound to destroy their chance with Leila, but which one will come to their senses and be honest with her before its to late is yet to be seen.  Although this book also leave you with a cliffhanger, you will find yourself anxiously waiting for book 3.  A.F Crowell has done an excellent job in capturing your ability to feel the emotions from each character.  This was the perfect title for this book, because you can feel how Leila is pulled between who she loves and who her heart actually belongs too.  We have to wait for book 3 to see what happens next, I will definitely be waiting....

PULLED EXCERPT

~Leila~

Once we got home, I drove out to Johns
Island, praying the entire way. One minute I prayed Brody would still be in New
York. The next I prayed he would be there, waiting for me, ready to tell me
what a fucking moron he had been.
               
I knocked on the door and Jane answered.
I could see the pity in her eyes. She knew. I felt the tears welling up in my
eyes, but I swallowed, blinked them back and went inside with her.

“Ruger is just out back. Come on. Let’s
go to the kitchen. Are you hungry? Can I make you some lunch?”

“No thanks Jane. I’m not hungry. I don’t
really have an appetite at the moment. I just want to get Ruger and get out of
here before he gets home,” I said, looking around for my Shepherd. “You don’t
know when Brody is getting in do you? Because I don’t want him to find me here.
He was mad enough last night. I just want to grab my stuff and my dog, then I
will leave him alone, like he wants.”

“Sweetie, I understand y’all are havin’
some issues right now, but just please give him some time to come around. He
will. He just needs time.”

“Jane, I love you to death, but I don’t
have time to wait for him to pull his head out of his ass. I have a baby to
think about. I need to worry about us.” I placed my hand on my abdomen. “And
how I am going to raise him or her by myself.” And here come the tears. “I’m going to go get my things from Brody’s
bedroom. I won’t be long.”

Racing up the stairs, I grabbed
everything of mine I could see. I left the gifts, jewelry and toys. I didn’t
need any more reminders of Brody than I already had. Throwing the duffle over
my shoulder, I went back down to get Ruger.

“Jane, I think I have everything. If you
see anything else, would you please just set it to the side and call me. I
could meet you somewhere.” I hit the bottom step. “You know, so I don’t have to
come back out here.”

A look of panic flashed on her face and
I knew.

He was home.

FML. Part of me wanted to run out the
front door, but I could hear him talking to Ruger in the family room.

Fuck, fuckidy, fuck, fuck, fuck!

I knew he saw my car out front. It was
pretty hard to miss. I felt a stray tear slip past and quickly wiped it away.

Jane walked to the foot of the stairs
where I was standing and whispered, “Please Leila, just go talk to him. I
promise he is calm. You know he won’t yell in front of me. Or Ruger for that
matter,” she said with a little giggle, trying to lighten my mood.

“Jane, I don’t think it’s a good idea, I
need to just go. He made it perfectly clear last night what his decision was.
Please, don’t make this any harder on me.” I bit the inside of my cheek to
distract myself from the emptiness and ache in my chest. We were whispering
back and forth when I heard him clear his throat. I closed my eyes, looked down
and took a deep breath.

You can do this. Just walk out the front
door, whistle for Ruger and walk away. Come on, one foot in front of the other.

“I didn’t expect to see you here,” Brody
whispered.

**BT & Giveaway** Perfectly Imperfect ~ Harper Sloan

Meet Willow and Kane in the newest stand alone by Harper Sloan!
NOW AVAILABLE on the following retailers:


Mirror, mirror ... who's the fairest of them all?


I still cringe when I hear that line. A fairy tale that had girls pretending they were the fairest, the most beautiful, and the most entitled. A fairy tale most couldn't grow out of turned my haunted childhood memories into a living nightmare. Girls who grew up believing that pile of garbage became the meanest of all 'mean girls.'


And those mean girls were right - it was a line meant for all the beautiful people in the world - and I knew the answer would never be me.


The women with long legs, flat stomachs, and perfect chests.


The type of women Kane Masters gravitated toward.


Well, that's definitely not Willow Tate.


No. That will never be me.


Because I'm completely imperfect.


And ... I hate myself.


I have no idea what Kane could possibly see in someone like me when he could have them.


“Are you nervous right now?”
I nod.
“Tell me why.” His demand, steady and calm, gives me the courage I need to tell him. To open a vein and bleed my insecurities.
“I’m not perfect,” I whisper.
“And neither am I, Willow. I don’t want perfect. What so many see as perfect, to me, is fake. Perfect isn’t achievable naturally. No one, and I mean no one, is perfect.”
I’m shaking my head before he’s even done speaking, but one long finger comes up and presses against my lips before I can speak.
“No, let me finish. There isn’t beauty in perfection. It’s as fake as the image the word projects. Beauty is found in imperfection, Willow, because to admit you’re not perfect means you’re admitting you’re not whole and absolute. When I think of myself, I see someone willing to admit he’s as far from complete as it gets because, in order to get to that perfection, I need to find the other part of me who will make my life better. To take all the faults I have and fill them, and only then will I be there. You see, the way I see it, the only way to become perfect is to find that perfectly imperfect person who brings it out of you.”
When he stops, I swear I might have stopped breathing. How am I supposed to respond to that?
“Do you trust me?” he asks, his voice strong and sure.
“Yes, Kane. Nerves or not, I do.”
“Then let me show you what I see when I look at you.”
He brings his hands up, framing my face once again in a way I’m quickly becoming addicted to the feeling of. His warm eyes implore, begging me without words to let him continue. I do not intend to stop him, regardless of the butterflies currently taking over my system. I’m all in.



#iAmWillow
There has never been a hashtag have so much meaning to me and thousands of other people as this one does.
I am not writing a review of the book, because in my eyes, the best review would simply say READ IT!
I am truly and deeply affected by this book and what Harper Sloan brought out into the public eye. This is a subject that is front and center in today's society and I fully believe everyone should read this amazing story. Yes, it is a love story, but the underlying subject of body image and the awful things anyone who suffers from any sort of issues with their own body, or even life events that may cause them to think they are not worthy should read this. Everyone needs to learn to live within their own skin and not let the way they look, what size they wear or don't wear, and what society thinks everyone should look like affect them. Life is too short to live unhappy. And I can say, in my own past life events, #iAmWillow. Thank you Harper Sloan for opening up yourself and helping so many people with this story!

Perfectly Imperfect is a story that will speak to each and every woman who opens its pages. As a reviewer we can sit and we can give you our opinions on this book, but I think I can say bravo Harper Sloan. she's left herself wide open toa ll of her readers and gave them a peek inside of her and showed us that she herself experiences the same doubts that we experience. Not just readers, but women as a whole. I can say without a doubt that #iAmWillow 
Pick the book up and read it. It will be the best thing you've ever read.



Harper lives in small town Georgia just a short drive from her hometown of Peachtree City. She (and her 3 daughters) enjoy ruling the house they dubbed 'Estrogen Ocean', much to her husband’s chagrin. Harper has a borderline unhealthy obsession with books; you can almost ALWAYS find her with her eReader attached. She enjoys bad reality TV and cheesy romantic flicks. Her favorite kind of hero--the super alpha kind!


Harper started using writing as a way to unwind when the house went to sleep at night; and with a house full of crazy it was the perfect way to just relax. It didn't take long before a head full of very demanding alphas would stop at nothing to have their story told.

**CR** Jagger ~ Caldwell Brothers 3 ~ Chelsea Camaron & MJ Fields

Jagger cover
Title: JAGGER (Caldwell Brothers, #3)
Authors: Chelsea Camaron & MJ Fields
Release Date: April 19, 2016
Publisher: Loveswept, a Penguin Random House imprint
add-to-goodreads-button31


Full of swagger and sensuality, the Caldwell Brothers series—perfect for fans of Katy Evans and Emma Chase—packs an emotional punch as the last bachelor standing fights for a woman who’s worth every ounce of trouble.

Jagger Caldwell is no one’s hero. With a reputation busting heads and breaking hearts on the underground MMA circuit, he lives for easy cash and easier women. But when he stumbles upon an all-too-familiar scene, painful memories awaken Jagger’s sensitive side and compel him to act. As a kid, he stood by helplessly as his old man beat his mom. Now, Jagger won’t let seventeen-year-old Tatiana Rand suffer the same fate. Nothing matters except saving her.

Tatiana is a prisoner in her own home, at the mercy of her violent father—until an unlikely savior bursts through her door and into her life. Six-feet-plus of tattooed muscle and raw power, Jagger is no prince charming—but Tatiana stopped believing in fairy tales long ago. Despite their differences in age and, well, everything else, the sexy bad boy sparks a fire that Tatiana never knew she had—and desires that only Jagger can quench.
Includes a special message from the editor, as well as an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

Hendrix (Caldwell Brothers, #1)
HENDRIX_Cover
Hendrix Caldwell wants nothing more than to revitalize the family bar—and tear down every last reminder of his no-good father. But business isn’t the only thing on his mind. An explosive encounter with a stranger at a charity masquerade is just the distraction he craves, with no names and no strings attached. For Hendrix, sex is casual, and love is a four-letter word. His commitment is to his brothers, his bar, and his bike. So why can’t he stop thinking about the naughty Cinderella who rocked his world, then left him—and her panties—behind?

Olivia Hemmingway knows fairytales are for little girls. Drowning in debt and hiding a shameful secret, she won’t be saved by a knight in tattooed armor, no matter how mind-blowing their one-night stand may have been. Olivia never expects to meet her masked lover again. But when she takes a job at Hendrix Caldwell’s bar, her sexy new boss seems all too familiar. And once the lights go out and the music is turned up, the sparks between them burn hotter than ever.

Morrison (Caldwell Brothers, #2)
25530110
For Morrison Caldwell, life is a game of chance. A high roller with a legendary poker face, he’s the wild card of the family, always chasing the next thrill and never staying put for long. The one place that always lures him back is Las Vegas, with its hot tables and even hotter women. He’s perfectly content to live his life as a series of one-night stands. But when a parking lot confrontation with a cocktail waitress takes a naughty turn, she leaves Morrison aching for another round. 

After a long losing streak in Sin City, Hailey Poe is ready to get lucky. A steamy tryst with a cocky, mysterious stranger is the kind of no-strings encounter she’s been craving . . . until Morrison Caldwell asks for more than she’s willing to offer. But when Hailey’s controlling, soon-to-be ex-husband tries to take her daughter away, she can’t afford to turn down a helping hand. In this winner-takes-all game, Morrison is gambling with Hailey’s life—and her heart.
