My Review: First things first - my initial reaction upon finishing this book.. Oh My God I need book two NOW!! Seriously, all, I'm not sure I can survive without it.

Review: THE WRIGHT SECRET by K.A. Linde!

 
My Review: I've been eager for Morgan to get her chance at love. Her older brothers have had their time in the spotlight, but it's about time we get some girl power in here. And any long time readers of my blog know I love the older-brother's-best-friend trope, so I figured this book would be a slam dunk. And I was mostly right!

I will admit to being a little disappointed that while Morgan had been in love with Patrick for years, he didn't feel the same. He clearly enjoyed spending time with her, but it took a very obvious wake up call before he started seeing her as anything other than his friends sister, or someone he would hang with on occasion. But once he saw the error of his ways, he was all in. And it was a great read.

Despite being a little predictable, this ended up being a fun, engrossing read. It's not my favorite of the Wright series, but it had its moments to shine and did a lot of things right. I'm already desperate for the next one.

Cover Lovin': Yum! And fits the series perfectly.

Recommendation: This can be read as a stand alone, but prior knowledge of the series is recommended.

Final Rating: FOUR out of FIVE stars (4/5)!! Maybe a little predictable, but a fantastic read all the same!


Happy Reading!

A new brother’s-best-friend stand alone romance by USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde…

I was just his best friend’s little sister.

But he was always more than that to me.

After twelve years of pining over Patrick’s easy smile, baby blues, and captivating charm, I decide to take matters into my own hands—and completely blow my chance.

Who knew a self-proclaimed manwhore would decide to be a gentleman the first time I’m naked in his bed? Definitely, not me. But when I land there again, neither of us has any intention of stopping.

There’s only one problem: nobody can know. Especially not my three older brothers. If they found out, all hell would break loose.

So I’m willing to keep our secret. Because I want him Wright here, right now.

Review: THE WRIGHT MISTAKE by K.A. Linde!

    My Review: Wow, this was good. And so emotional! I might have teared up a little, I'll admit. Since we met Austin in the previous books, it was obvious he enjoyed drinking, but in his own story, it's so much deeper than just having a few too many now and again. K.A. Line does a fantastic job with Austin's addiction. It can be hard to write an addict, and possibly even harder to write a recovering one, but I have to admire how well it was done.

Austin's addiction over shadows everything else in this book, leaving Julia's main suspense angle feeling rushed. I could definitely see the whole crazy-ex thing coming from a mile away. But I can't be angry about that, or feel let down, because I think the relationship woes between Austin and Julia were strong enough to carry the book on their own.

Each time I read one of the Wright books, I think it's the best one so far. When I started Landon's book, I was sure it wouldn't compare to Jensen, but then I was proved wrong. And once again, with this book, I didn't think Austin could surpass Landon.. but he did. This series just keeps getting better, but each Wright brother has a special place in my heart. But I will admit being very excited for the sisters to get their turn in the spotlight!

Cover Lovin': Fits wonderfully with the rest of the series.

Recommendation: Part of a series, but can work as a stand-alone.

Final Rating: FOUR out of FIVE stars (4/5)!! The suspense angle loses its punch when compared to Austin's addiction.. but overall, this book was a fantastic, one-sitting read!


Happy Reading!

A new stand alone enemies-to-lovers romance by USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde...

I spent six weeks screwing Austin Wright’s brains out and all I got was this broken heart.

He can’t be trusted. Not with my body or my heart. Yet, two years have passed and I still crave him like an addict needing a fix.

The last time we tried this, it nearly ruined me. I know I should run and never look back. But his dark haunted eyes and razor blade smile speak to my soul. His touch sets my body on fire. And we all know what happens when you light gasoline. Someone is bound to get burned.

A second chance might destroy us both.

Because everyone knows two wrongs don’t make a Wright.

Review: THE WRIGHT BOSS by K.A. Linde!

       
My Review: I am going to start with what I didn't like, so I can end this review with a bang - what I did like. I can't help but compare this to the previous book, The Wright Brother, and it just felt like The Wright Boss fell short. So close, but still short. Landon just couldn't compare to Jensen. And that bothers me a little, because I know I would have been all over Landon had I not met his older brother first. I also felt like everything was solved far too quickly in the end. It was too simple and clean.

Now on to what I loved - pretty much everything else. The forbidden romance, the feelings of betrayal, the very sexy hero, and the awesome family dynamic. Another huge plus for me was the friendships in this book - Heidi has a fantastic relationship with her friends Emery and Julia, and I loved seeing that. Too many books forgo giving the main character a friend that is more than just a sidekick.

Cover Lovin': Thumbs up, for sure! And fits well with book one.

Recommendation: I recommend reading book one before this one. It won't work as well as a stand-alone.

Final Rating: THREE POINT FIVE out of FIVE stars (3.5/5)! Most likely, this would ordinarily be a four star read for me, but I keep comparing it to the previous book, and Jensen still has my heart. 


Happy Reading!

TWBoss iBooksA new stand alone office romance from USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde... I’ve always had one rule: Don’t mix business and pleasure. But then Landon Wright comes home to his family’s construction company with a broken back and a beaten heart and ends up as my new sexy boss. As the office gets heated, I’m thinking about throwing the rulebook out the window. If only there weren’t a million reasons this could never work. We may have shared a single perfect kiss, but I can’t let our intense connection cloud my judgment. Not with everything I’ve worked for on the line. Dating your boss is so very, very wrong…even if he feels so Wright.

Review: THE WRIGHT BROTHER by K. A. Linde!

  twbbanner

My Review: Woo boy, it's never easy dating the sibling of someone you dated years ago, but the baggage these two have make it even harder! And really, no one could blame them. Both the hero and heroine are coming from disastrous former relationships - and trust is definitely an issue for them both. You know me, I love me some drama.. but even I was tempted to shake them and tell them to kiss and make up. But it all works perfectly with the plot. At no point did I think it was too much.

I loved Jensen. I wanted to keep him as my own. He's definitely book boyfriend material. I wish I could talk about the ending. I just need to discuss it with someone because I was nervous and worried as heck for Jensen. Trust me, dear readers - you will be on the edge of your seat too. 

Also, I just want to say how much I loved Em just flat out telling Jensen he was being stupid. Someone had to be honest with him!

Cover Lovin': How could I not love that cover?!

Recommendation: First book in a new series, so no prior knowledge required.

Final Rating: FOUR out of FIVE stars (4/5)! This was great, and I can't wait to see the rest of the Wright siblings get their own stories.

Happy Reading!

  TWB Amazon I'd dated his brother. He didn’t remember and I wish I could forget. I may have sworn off the Wright family a long time ago. But when I returned home, Jensen Wright crashed into my life with the confidence of a billionaire CEO and the sex appeal of a god. Even I couldn’t resist our charged chemistry, or the way he fit into my life like a missing puzzle piece. Too bad he’d forgotten the one thing that could destroy us. Because Jensen Wright doesn’t share. Not with anyone. And if his brother finds out, this could all go down in flames. When it all was said and done, was he the Wright brother?

Release Blitz: THE BOUND by K.A. Linde!

  screen-shot-2016-10-05-at-2-51-58-pm   tb-amazonCyrene Strohm is a Queen’s Affiliate, a high-ranking official of the court of Byern, with power and privilege to spare. But she’s also a keeper of dangerous secrets: like the fact that she holds the heart of the King, and that she possesses magic in a world where magic no longer exists. Determined to discover what this means and how to use her newfound abilities, Cyrene sets off for the distant land of Eleysia. An island nation where Affiliates are strictly forbidden from entering. But the journey is perilous, and the destination may mean utter ruin, as Cyrene comes to learn that everything she’s been told her whole life – about her court, her homeland, and even herself—are bound in a beautiful lie.

  availablenow         Staggering down the hallway, she didn’t even look up when she heard her name. “Hmm?” she asked. “Cyrene, there you are!” Someone grabbed her shoulders, and she tipped her head to look up into the most beautiful face. She smiled and felt a renewed burst of energy flow through her. “Hey,” she whispered. “Hey,” he said, threading his fingers through hers. A shiver ran up her back. He glanced around the empty hallway and then tugged her away from the main corridors. She turned a corner, and he pressed her back into a darkened alcove. His mouth was only inches from hers. Her exhaustion was wearing off from the excitement of being with him. “I was really worried about you,” he breathed. “You don’t have to worry about me,” she said, trapped in his gaze. She teetered on her tiptoes and nearly brushed their lips together. Her heart was racing ahead of her. This felt almost better than reaching for her magic. Definitely better than moving one drop of water at a time all day. “You’re wrong.” Then, he softly dropped his mouth down on hers. His lips were tender and slow as they caressed hers. “I will always worry for your safety.” Cyrene’s cheeks heated, and she sighed, leaning back against the hard stone of the alcove. “I didn’t mean to worry you.” His hands pushed up through her hair and tilted her head back up to look at him. She closed her eyes and sighed. She was so tired, and just the feel of his fingers was lulling her to sleep. “That feels good.” His mouth found hers, and despite her exhaustion, she pushed back against his lips with more force. She refused to let the fact that she was tired get in the way of her time with him. “Whoa,” he said, pulling back from her. He rested his forehead against hers, and she could tell he was breathing heavily. “As much as I want this, and I do, I want to make sure you’re okay. This didn’t scare you away?” She shook her head. “This, most certainly, does not scare me.” Then, she kissed him again for good measure. He laughed. “Good. Because I’ve been wanting to kiss you since I first met you.” “You have not!” she insisted. “Are you kidding? A gorgeous, feisty woman who wasn’t afraid to put me in my place the first time she met me? I mostly certainly have.”     teaser3square1       ta-amazonThe Affiliate: Book 1 "With rich romance and twisty political intrigue, THE AFFILIATE is a breakneck fantasy ride that's perfect for fans of THE SELECTION or THRONE OF GLASS." --Susan Dennard, NYT bestselling author of TRUTHWITCH On the day of her Presenting, in front of the entire Byern Court, seventeen-year-old Cyrene Strohm's lifelong plans come to fruition when she's chosen for one of the most prestigious positions in her homeland--an Affiliate to the Queen.
