All That's Left To Hold Onto by Ella Fox

Ella Fox delivers a beautiful love story about finding love in the most unexpected ways. As a reader I’m a firm believer that a book that is truly about love without the angst and all the drama is needed in the reader world.  With that said, I was nervous because I usually stay away from books that involve kids, but damn if Ms. Fox didn’t have me wanting to sign up on Match.com to find me a Ronan to make babies with.

Ronan is the guy we all hope to find but we still end up wasting our time on the bad boys. He is protective, supportive and the one person that Keely and Emma can count on. I loved being on the journey of watching him find his way on taking care of Emma. It was sweet, funny and made you hopeful that guys like him do exist. Keely was just what I expected her to be strong and unwavering in her decisions. She took the bull by the horns and there was no changing her mind when it came to Emma. 

Did I mention the fact that the TUG girls are in this book. You know any author who gives a shout out to fictional dudes jerking has to be all kinds of awesome. This just proves that Ella can write any kind of story and engage the reader. She can go from Alpha guys getting their woman to sweet guys who will do anything to get their woman.

Brawler By: K.S Adkins

Once upon a time there was a story about a captain and a princess.  They fought hard- some times against each other, but always for each other. This is a fairy tale romance done fucking Detroit style. Badass chick takes on hot-tempered guy. I fell in love with Rafe; his endearing foot-in-the-mouth moments made me laugh out loud. Ms. Adkins brought all elements together to make an enjoyable read. You can't help, but fall in love with the story of Rafe and Macy. You will laugh, cuss, tear up, and in the end, smile.

Rafe fell hard for Macy. There was only one problem - he was shit with words. What he lacked in that department, he made up for in protection and persistence; as well as apologizing his ass off every time he messed up - trust me - it was a lot. Macy was strong. What I loved most about her was that it was like I could see her working through each situation like I was the one in the book. The author not only brought them together - she brought them to life. 

In my opinion, Rafe and Macy took over my top K. S. Adkins couple award. The sex scenes were amazing. It seemed like when they were sexually frustrated, I was too. I loved every moment of this book. Did it piss me off? Yeah. That just shows how invested I was in the characters. I love having the protective side of me pulled out in a book that makes me want to cuss the author for any wrong doing I feel is taking place. From my perspective she just keeps getting better and better. It's fucking real talk put in a motherfucking romance book.
