My Review

Another great story from T A Foster.

We first met Mason in the Kissing Eden Series however I would say for any one that hasn't read them it wouldn't make any difference and this could be read as standalone. Mason has found his next deal and is determined that nothing with stop him from succeeding. Not even reporter Sydney. Sydney learns of Mason's deal and makes him the focus of her story. Sydney is new to the area and is looking to escape the painful memory's of home life. There is an instant attraction between Sydney and Mason however will Mason's deal in the balance and Sydney's job can they really risk a relationship?

I really enjoyed this story. I really liked both Mason's and Sydney's chemistry. The story flowed really well and had a good pace. This was a fairly quick read and I would say it's perfect for a summer read. I hope there is follow up book because I can't help but feel there this more questions to be answered about Sydney's past.

Overall a great light hearted fun romance read which I would recommend reading.

Blurb

From the New York Times bestselling author of Stepbrother Dearest, comes a new forbidden STANDALONE romance.

What happens when the one you want is the only one you can’t have?

My name is Sevin.

Homeschooled and sheltered by my ultra-religious family, I was always taught that lust was a sin.

Elle was the girl who’d been carefully chosen for me.

After a long-distance courtship, I’d be moving into her family’s guesthouse so that we could get to know each other in the months before the wedding.

Boundaries were set: no inappropriate touching, no kissing, no sex before marriage.

I’d accepted those rules and my fate.

Until I met the one I wanted to sin with.

That was when restraint became a problem…especially since the one wasn’t Elle.

It was her sister, Evangeline.

You know what they say about best laid plans.

My name is Sevin, and I have sinned.

Told in alternating points of view, Sins of Sevin is a full-length standalone novel. Contains graphic sexual content and harsh language. Only appropriate for adult readers age 18+.

Blurb

He promised to leave me alone, but that was a lie. I should have known he’d have this pull on me—seeping through my skin and into my bones, burning me from the outside in. It’s just like when we were kids, and I can no longer avoid him. I’ve accepted it, but what will it take to convince him that I am no longer his? Is that really what I want?

I told her I’d leave her alone. But who was I kidding? I’ve never been one to back away from a challenge. He stole my girl—my future—from me. I’m coming back with a vengeance. I’m taking back what he took from me. After all the secrets and lies, can we come back from this? Even if it breaks me, I’ll stop at nothing to protect what’s always been mine.

Blog Tour- Own Me by Lexi Scott

Own Me by Lexi Scott Silver Strands #3 Publication Date: August 17, 2015 Also in this series: Risk Me Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance

Amazon • Amazon UK • Amazon CA • B&N • Kobo • iBooks

Synopsis: Genevieve Rodriguez’s life isn't panning out the way she’s always envisioned. At all. Not only is she exactly one “D” away from getting kicked out of school, but her heart is in pieces after her long-time crush marries someone else. For Genevieve, sunny Silver Strand has never felt more dismal.

Then Adam Abramowitz, her super-cute, super-smart physics tutor—who never seems to notice even her sexiest tops—tells her his Visa is about to expire and he’s going to have to return to Israel. Suddenly the words pop out Genevieve's mouth before she can stop them. “Marry me.” At first, it's a joke...until it's not. Because in that brief, unexpected moment, everything changes. The rules. The boundaries. And Adam and Genevieve are about to discover what happens when you push the limits.

My Review This is the third book in silver strand series by Lexi Scott. I hadn't read any of the other books in the series but that didn't seem to be a problem as I very easily picked up the story up so therefore it can be read as standalone. I really enjoyed reading this book, I really liked the main characters Adam and Gen. They had great chemistry and this was a great friends to lovers story which I always enjoy. I loved the way the story and their relationship developed throughout the book and it was great to see their relationship grow and see them over come the barriers they face. The story is very well written and flows really well. This would make a great beach read for the summer and I will also be checking out the other books in series. *I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Synopsis: For Cohen Rodriguez, getting dumped by his girlfriend was bad enough. Being told he's “not impulsive enough” was just the cheap parting gift. Still, he takes a break from his über responsible ways and dates his way through Silver Strand. Except it's not exactly turning out the way he thought...

On top of that, there's Maren Walshe, whose combination of sexy and down-to-earth is everything Cohen wants in a girl. But while they've recently been talking on the phone and texting every day, they've never actually met. Now Maren wants to meet. In person. Faced with turning his oh-so-safe fantasy girl into an uncertain reality, Cohen and Maren are both about to dive head first, ready or not.

Then she meets a sexy, inked, surfer-dude who has the potential of capsizing everything... Deo Beckett is adrift. Underemployed and over-boozing, Deo knows he should be doing something more with his life. Being something more. All it takes is a pin-up hottie with a smart mouth—and a bruised soul—to force Deo to start looking below the surface. To wonder if there's more to life than being a beach bum. Now he's falling for Whit...and hard. But Whit ran from home for a reason, and she'll go to any lengths to keep Deo from learning the truth...
