About FIRE IN YOU (Standalone Contemporary Romance Releasing November 28, 2016): From the # 1 New York Times and International bestselling author comes a richly moving story about heartbreak and guilt, second chances and hope. Full of familiar, fan-favorite characters and no two people more deserving of a happy ending, Fire In You will burn bright beyond the last page…

Jillian Lima’s whole world was destroyed in a span of a few hours. The same night her childhood love, Brock ‘the Beast’ Mitchell, broke her heart, her life was irrevocably altered by the hand of a stranger with a gun.  It takes six years to slowly glue together the shattered pieces of her life, but Jillian is finally ready to stop existing in a past full of pain and regret. She takes a job at her father’s martial arts Academy and she’s going out on her first date since a failed relationship that was more yuck than yum. Jillian is determined to start living. She just never expected Brock to be a part of her life again. But he’s firmly back in her life before she knows it, and not only is he older, he’s impossibly more handsome, more teasing and more everything. And when he sees Jillian, he’s no longer capable of thinking of her as the little girl who was his shadow growing up or the daughter of the man who gave him a second chance at life. He sees the woman who’d always been there for him, the one person who believed in him no matter what. Brock knows she’s the one he should’ve made his, and what begins as a tentative friendship quickly turns to red-hot chemistry that sparks a flame that burns brighter than lust. Falling for Brock again risks more than her heart, because when the sorrow-filled and guilt-ridden past resurfaces, and a web of lies threatens to rip them apart, the fallout could lay waste to everything they’ve fought to build together, and destroy the dreams of those they care most about.

REVIEW: Sweet Cheeks by K. Bromberg

EEEPPPP!!! I know its been a while since I've written a blog post, and I deeply apologize. Life has been completely crazy lately. But I promise I am back and I could not be more excited about bringing you guys this review. I hope that you all enjoy it as much as I did! Make sure you go and grab yourself a copy. And without further adeu....I bring you Sweet Cheeks!



Title: Sweet Cheeks
Author:  K. Bromberg
Pub Date: November 10, 2016



     sweetcheeks_frontcover


An all new second chance love story by the New York Times Bestselling author of the beloved Driven series. It all started with the invitation. To my ex-fiance’s new wedding. I should have ignored it. Thrown it away. Set it afire. But I didn’t. I replied. With a plus one. And then my assistant accidentally mailed it. Enter Hayes Whitley. Mega-movie star. The man who has captured the hearts of millions. But I gave him mine years ago. He was my first love. He was my everything. Right until he up and left to chase his dreams without so much as a simple goodbye. When he showed up out of the blue ten years later, I should have known to steer clear of him. I should have rejected his offer to take me to my ex’s wedding. I should have never let him kiss me. But I didn’t. And now we’re left wondering if the pieces of the life we once shared still fit together somehow. First loves are hard to forget. The question is, do we want to forget? Or do we risk the chance and see what happens next?

*********************************************************************************





K. Bromberg has been an author on my TBR list for quite sometime. I just haven't had the time with work to commit to another series. But when I saw that she was writing a stand alone I knew I knew I had to read it! I could not have been more excited when I saw I was chosen to receive an advanced copy to read and review.
Sweet Cheeks is a hilarious, moving, and very romantic second chance at love story.  And you all know how I'm a sucker for second chance stories. They just pull at my heart strings. And K. Bromberg did not disappoint with this one. She had me wanting more from the very beginning.

I could not help but fall in love and root for Saylor and Hayes. Childhood best friends turned high school sweet hearts with a rocky past. Brought together after 10 years of silence because of a pact that Hayes made with Saylors brother Ryder.



Saylor has been invited to her Ex. Finances wedding. And by mistake the RSVP had been sent. Saylors brother gets it in his head that it will help their business if she went to the wedding and made nice with everyone and show that even though she was the one that walked away her life couldn't be better. Hence the appearance of Hayes. Of course Saylor can't go to the wedding alone, especially since she replied with a plus one on the RSVP card.

Now the two of them are stuck together on an exotic tropical island. Acting like they are madly in love.  Of course, emotions begin to run high,  buried feelings begin surface,  and ultimately choices will have to be made. 
I loved the way the author wrote these characters. Even though its not everyday you find an actor going home to a small town. The  whole scenario seemed believable.  Everything seemed so natural and unforced.  The chemistry between the characters was phenomenal. Made me wish I had a high school sweet heart in my life.  It was just too cute.




Not to mention the witty banter between the characters, just great. Absolutely loved it. I could not have asked for more in a male lead. Strong, sexy, funny, and of course sweet. As well as an amazingly determined, strong willed, sweet, damaged , feisty female lead. 

When you are first introduced to the characters you know that they both has a past. Saylor, with her ex-fiance and Hayes with Saylor. You aren't sure why she would walk away from the so called "perfect man." and on the other hand you see that Hayes still affects her when he shows up to help her in this predicament that she is in. Even though she doesn't believe that she is in. And you're not exactly sure of the past that the two of them have (Saylor and Hayes.) All you know is that he left with out a word 10 years prior and she was heartbroken. But it seems that there was more to him leaving, which is told through out the book. 





While i was reading I could feel what each character was going through. When they were sad I felt sad, and when they were happy, I felt happy. When there was love in the air, oh boy I felt it. You knew from the moment that these two were thrown together that sparks were going to fly and boy did they. I will also warn you that by the end of this book you are going to be craving cupcakes. Through out reading this book, with all the talk about cupcakes I was like I need those....like now. I almost went and baked some because I was craving them so badly.

The setting of this story was beautiful and I could not have picked a better setting for a second chance love story then a tropical island/ small town. Creating a romantic setting as well as places that in sighted trips down memory lane. Well played K. Bromberg, well played.

New York Times Bestselling author K. Bromberg writes contemporary novels that contain a mixture of sweet, emotional, a whole lot of sexy, and a little bit of real. She likes to write strong heroines, and damaged heroes who we love to hate and hate to love. She’s a mixture of most of her female characters: sassy, intelligent, stubborn, reserved, outgoing, driven, emotional, strong, and wears her heart on her sleeve. All of which she displays daily with her husband and three children where they live in Southern California. On a whim, K. Bromberg decided to try her hand at this writing thing. Since then she has written The Driven Series (Driven, Fueled, Crashed, Raced, Aced), the standalone Driven Novels (Slow Burn, Sweet Ache, Hard Beat, and Down Shift), and a novella (UnRaveled). She is currently finishing up Sweet Cheeks a standalone novel out November 14th. Her plans for 2017 include a sports romance duet (2 books: The Player, The Catch) and the Everyday Heroes series (3 books: Cuffed, Combust, and Cockpit). She’s also writing a novella for the 1,001 Dark Night series that will be out in February 2017. She loves to hear from her readers so make sure you check her out on social media.

Addicted Series Love Fest -Letter to Krista and Becca Ritchie



Hello Fellow Readers!

Due to the release of the final Addicted Series/Calloway Sisters novel on May 20th! The Fizzle Force wanted to do our own tribute and love to this wonderful series and its amazing authors!!

So I decided to show my addicted series love by just expressing how much I love these characters in the form of a goodbye/ thank you letter!

-To Krista and Becca

I have come to absolutely love these characters, each and everyone. From the two that started it all Lily and Lo all the way to Sadie the cat! Through all of these novels, we have laughed, cried, mourned, evolved, and fallen in love with these characters. From their highest achievements to their lowest of lows, we have been through it all.

Its hard not to become attached to characters that feel so real and normal, despite the fact that are children of millionaire moguls. They each had their own problems and worked through them, but I think what has stuck with me the most through all these books is they have one common theme.

FAMILY IS EVERYTHING!

No matter what either of them have gone through, they have gone through it together. When one of them was hurting they all were hurting.

Which is something that I have always admired about them. The way that they were a force to be reckoned with when something went wrong. Even if they weren't always fond of each other *cough* Rose and Lo *cough* haha. However,  In the end I believe that each and everyone of them would gladly lay down their lives to protect the other.

Not to mention they are all quirky and funny as hell, as well huge nerds. Well I cant necessarily call Connor and Rose Cobalt  nerds. They would be the know it all's of the group, I say that in the nicest way possible, because if I was ever in trouble those are the two I would want in my corner getting me out of any sticky situation. Even though I love Daisy, Lily, Lo, and Ryke.

These feelings that we have about these characters is a huge testament to Krista and Becca! The wonderful, talented, amazing authors who created and brought these unbelievable characters to life.
There are no amount of words that could be written to express the amount of gratitude and love that we all have for you! I can not tell you how many times I've been in a predicament and had to think what would Connor Cobalt do? Especially when choosing what I wear, Rose Calloway has been a huge influence. lol. I even tried to learn French because of those two. It didn't go so well. But its the attempt that counts right. 

The friendships that have also our been created from our love of this series. Is a friendship that will last long after this series is over.   

I still cant believe that its coming to an end. I feel like I'm losing Harry Potter all over again! Bu I can not be more excited to see what the future holds, as well as what happens in Some Kind of Perfect!

I know im kind of all over the place. Ive never been good with exspressing emorions into words. And I kind of feel all over the place, but I guess what I'm trying to say  is THANK YOU!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for creating these realistic, strong, caring, witty, brave, and loyal characters for us readers!


With Love and Thanks,

Kaitlan

Addicted Series Full-Length Epilogue Novelfalling in love was just the beginning





I am IN LOVE with this series, and these characters! I could be more excited and sad  for the release of this book. These characters have formed a special place in my heart and I am in no way ready to say goodbye! But I also can not wait to see how it all ends. These characters seriously feel like old friends, and have grown so much throughout the series. However, even though it will break my heart to have to say goodbye.  All good things must come to an end right. The best thing about books though, is that it never really ends. We can always go back and revisit our favorite characters over and over again. I say this now, but I guarantee that when I finish this book I will be a blubbering mess of feels.

If you have read this series then you know exactly what I am talking about, and if you have not yet met these wonderful characters. You are seriously missing out and I encourage you wholeheartedly to go and grab a copy of Addicted To You, the novel that started it all!

Monday Musts (1)

Monday Musts


Hello my fellow readers!

I know that it has been a while since I last posted. But my friend Kim from Kimberlyfayereads showed me this weekly blog Meme. This meme was created by the lovely Jessica from Lovin Los Libros! Kim thought that it would be a good easy way to get back into the blogging world, and I can’t say that I disagree. So for this week lets take a look at my must reads, must listen, and must see!



MUST READ


Hooked


Hooked by Christine Manzari
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance, Suspense
Publication date: February 3, 2015
Publisher: Christine Manzari
Add it: Goodreads
Buy it: Amazon | Barnes & Noble | iTunes


If you ask the confident and snarky skater girl, and she’s in the mood to share, she’ll tell you her name is Cat. She might even tell you that she’s hooked on graffiti, 80s movies, and having fun—the riskier the better. Cat will share a good time with you, but she won’t ever trust you enough to share her heart. It’s protected by secrets and she’d like to keep it that way.

Cat knows one thing for certain: Love isn’t really her thing.

If you ask the confident and rich pretty boy, he might tell you his name is Huck. He might even tell you he loves a challenge and is used to getting his way. He won’t tell you that his life is a mess because he risked his heart by trusting the wrong girl. Huck is ready for a change, he just wasn’t ready to get hooked on someone like Cat.

Huck knows one thing for certain: Love hasn’t done him any favors, but Cat just might be worth the risk.

Cat and Huck think a one-night stand seems harmless, but when all the little secrets they didn’t share turn out to be toxic truths, they realize how easily a one-night stand (or a few) could ruin everything.

The thing is, you can be ruined in more than one way. Once you’re HOOKED, what wouldn’t you risk for the chance at more?

I just finished this book before adding it to this weeks post! I am IN LOVE with this book. It took me over a year to read. But when I finally picked it up, I could not put this book down. The chemistry between the main characters was electrifying, and their witty banter was intoxicating. The writing was captivating and you could not wait to see what happens next. I can not say enough good things about this book. If you get a chance add it to your goodreads and give it a read!


*****************************************************************************

MUST LISTEN



I am IN LOVE with this band! Last year I went and saw them twice within 3 months of each other. And I'll hopefully be able to see them again in March! They are AMAZING, and if you get the chance to see them live DO IT!! It will be worth every penny you spend on your ticket. They are amazing live!

***************************************************************************

MUST  SEE

Everyone who knows me, knows that I am a complete Harry Potter Nerd! So for my first week of Monday Musts. I'm sure you've seen this, its and oldie. However definitely a goodie! But for those who haven't seen this you're in for a treat! I hope that you enjoy this funny video as much as I do every time I watch it.
