RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW - Hitched Volume 2 (Imperfect Love #2) by Kendall Ryan

Hitched 2

Arranged marriage? Check. 
Cocky new husband? Check. 

It's a marriage of convenience—one I’m determined to keep strictly professional. I can't be stupid enough to fall for this sexy playboy's charm or advances. I have to be strong, even if he is my husband. Except he has a huge cock with an even bigger ego, and his main goal in life seems to be getting me to stroke both. The arrogant bastard is like sweet, sugary candy for my libido. I know he’s bad for me.

But I want to devour every wicked inch of him. 

With his sexual prowess and experience, I know he’ll be explosive in the bedroom. And since we’re stuck together for the foreseeable future—keeping up this marriage charade long enough to turn the company profitable again—I deserve something to look forward to at the end of a long workday, right?

What could one little taste hurt? 

This is volume 2 in the Imperfect Love series.


So with the start of this installment, we learn exactly what happened with Olivia at the end of part 1, and I gotta say I wish that portion of the story had been more drawn out. Although I do like how Noah's plan came together during the confrontation he and Olivia had with a certain individual. Noah is still his deliciously sexy self, but he's a deliciously sexy man with a conscience, especially when it comes to that certain clause in the contract that Olivia is still unaware of (or is she???). He's really showing that he wants to make this marriage a go, but Olivia is still thinking this is just for the sake of the company.

Honestly? I still want to shake the hell out of Olivia. I can get why she's still a bit hesitant, but she runs and cold with Noah and I found her behavior frustrating at times. For two people who are running a corporation, they sure don't know how to communicate with each other all that well. But that just adds to the story and I can't wait to find out how everything will come together (or fall apart) in the last book.

“What’s wrong?” I ask.
“Just a little tight, is all.” I inhale through my nose.
I have to shove the pregnancy stuff to the back corner of my brain. We’re a long way off from Olivia letting me pump her full of my semen anyhow, so why am I stressing about it now? The first step is showing her how compatible we can be.
And that starts now.
I smile at her. “Sit tight. I’ll be right back.”
I grab a bottle of massage oil from the hall closet and return to the living room. The soft jazz music seems to float in the air, creating a pleasant buzz in the atmosphere.
Olivia’s eyes widen when I rejoin her on the couch, but she doesn’t question me.
“I’ll give you a massage,” I suggest. “Take off your sweatshirt.”
Olivia flinches, chewing on her lip while she watches me. “But I’m not wearing anything underneath.”
That’s the idea. “I promise not to look.”
She hesitates for another second, then turns her back to me and pulls her shirt over her head, dropping it to the floor. The creamy canvas in front of me is one to be admired. The twin dimples in her lower back near the band of her leggings would make lesser men weep.
I warm a few drops of oil between my palms and rest my hands on her stiff shoulders.
“Relax. Okay?”

Marry the girl I’ve had a crush on my whole life? Check.
Inherit a hundred-billion-dollar company? Check.
Produce an heir… Wait, what?

I have ninety days to knock up my brand-new fake wife. There’s only one problem—she hates my guts.
And in the fine print of the contract? The requirement that we produce an heir.
She can’t stand to be in the same room with me.
Says she’ll never be in my bed.
But I’ve never backed down from a challenge and I’m not about to start now.
Mark my words—I’ll have her begging for me, and it won’t take ninety days.

On the heels of her smash hit and New York Times bestselling SCREWED series, Kendall Ryan brings you HITCHED, a romantic comedy that delivers heart and heat. A NYC playboy turned business mogul has ninety days to win over the woman he's always desired in order to save his father's company. One tiny problem: She hates his guts.

BLOG TOUR REVIEW & GIVEAWAY - Tell Me a Desire (The Story Series Episode 2) by Tamara Lush

About Tell Me A Desire: 
 

Tell Me a Desire: Episode TWO of The Story Series 

Emma and Caleb spend nearly all their free time enjoying each other sensually, but she wonders how permanent their relationship will be.

Emma's beloved Orlando bookstore is saved, thanks to Caleb's quick actions. She's caught up in a dizzying whirl of work and play, between her business, his palatial condo and the romantic getaways her handsome real estate mogul plans. But her 35th birthday brings not only sweet gifts, but the bitter realization that if she's going to have a family, it has to be now. She wants forever, but what about Caleb?

Caleb is in love for the first time in his life, and he can't do enough for his raven-haired temptress. He's happy living in the now, showering her with gifts to make up for her childhood, spent in poverty. But when Emma brings up the future, it becomes clear that she's not the only one with a past that can rear up and threaten their happiness. Despite all the daring exploration he persuades her into, marriage may just be his hard limit. Will he find a way past his darkest fears? 

*** Don't miss Tell Me a Lie: Episode Three of The Story Series. Release date: August 4, 2016 


This installment picks up 2 years into Emma's and Caleb's relationship, and while they're still madly in love with each other, a regular visit to her doctor has Emma questioning whether or not she wants to have kids with Caleb. It's during her birthday celebration that she learns more about Caleb's first marriage, from an unlikely source. 

The sexy times between them amp up when they decide to visit a BDSM club (in the name of research for Emma's new novel), but that adventure seems to backfire at the last possible moment. Then there's the issue of Caleb wanting Emma to move in with him and her reluctance to take that next step.

I thoroughly enjoyed this installment of the series, not quite as much as the first, but that would be because the first part was all new for Emma and Caleb and it seemed to have a more flirty tone to it. This installment gives a peek into their lives into which every day situations can and will occur, but there was still the factor of not enough communication between Emma and Caleb about the status and future of their relationship. Although by the end of the book, it seems like their relationship has gotten back on the right track, and I can't wait to find out what will happen next for them!

RELEASE BLITZ - Hitched Vol. 1 (Imperfect Love #1) by Kendall Ryan

Marry the girl I’ve had a crush on my whole life? Check.

Inherit a hundred-billion-dollar company? Check.

Produce an heir… Wait, what?

I have ninety days to knock up my brand-new fake wife. There’s only one problem—she hates my guts.

She can’t stand to be in the same room with me. Says she’ll never be in my bed.

But I’ve never backed down from a challenge and I’m not about to start now.

Mark my words—I’ll have her begging for me, and it won’t take ninety days.

On the heels of her smash hit and New York Times bestselling SCREWED series, Kendall Ryan brings you HITCHED, a romantic comedy that delivers heart and heat. A NYC playboy turned business mogul has ninety days to win over the woman he's always desired in order to save his father's company. One tiny problem: She hates his guts.



I absolutely loved this first part of Hitched! I already enjoy a good friends-to-lovers romance, and even though Noah and Olivia have known each their entire lives, calling them friends would be a stretch, especially since Olivia wants absolutely nothing to do with Noah. Noah on the other hand, has always had a crush on Olivia, and now thanks to his father's will and her father's health crisis, they'll have to unit as one in order to maintain control and ownership of the company their fathers started.

Noah is positively swoon-worthy; he knows the right thing to say to make you feel cherished and special, but can also turn on the dirty talk faster than you can blink. I wasn't sure how I felt about Olivia at the start of the book, because she comes across as a bitch. But once you read and learn more about her, it's not that she's a bitch, she just isn't comfortable interacting with other people, seeing as that she's spent her life preparing for the day when she and Noah will inherit the company.

The banter between Noah and Olivia is all types of hilarious, and there are some interactions that are downright scorching. Some of my favorite observations are when Olivia meets Noah's third leg...or tree trunk if you will. This is a book that had me laughing from start to finish and I can't wait to read the next part to see what will happen with these two!

EXCERPT:

"That’s the whole point of doing this trial period—to see how well we can play ball together before committing to a team-up. I’m doing my best to become friends with you, so . . .”




He tilts his head with a half smile. “Just friends? I’ve got my sights set a little higher.”




Gee, I never would have guessed, what with his constant attempts to steer the conversation toward sex.




I quirk one eyebrow in skepticism. “Friendship is all we need to pull this thing off. And we’re pretty much starting from square one . . . I would call us acquaintances, at best. Don’t you think you’re being a little overambitious?”




“Nope,” he replies, cocky smile still firmly in place.




I roll my eyes. “Wow. Your arrogance truly has no limits.”




“If I can put my money where my mouth is . . .” His lustful smirk makes it clear exactly where he’d like to put his mouth. “Then it’s not arrogance. Just confidence.”




“What makes you think I would want more with you, anyway? You aren’t exactly my type.”




I expect him to just give me a knowing look, or maybe toss back some mild innuendo. What I absolutely did not expect was, “Because I have a nine-inch cock.”




I almost choke on my martini for a third time. I splutter, “Is that number supposed to impress me?”




3"




I give him a skeptical look. “You want to show me your dick?”




“If it’ll help convince you.” He drains the last drops of his Scotch and stands up. “Come on, let’s go.”




I stare after him as he walks away.




Is he serious? He’s just going to whip it out? I look around to see if anyone is watching me, then I get up and follow him to the bar’s back hallway, near the restrooms, unable to comprehend why the hell I’m humoring him. This is ridiculous.




Once we’re safely in a private corner, Noah undoes his belt, opens his fly . . . and pulls out a fucking fire hose.




Holy mother of God. My hands fly to my mouth. I want to gasp in shock, but there’s no way I’m giving him the upper hand.




He was right. His cock is nothing short of massive, and it’s not even fully erect right now. Nine inches may actually be a conservative estimate of what it might look like hard. He must destroy men’s egos every time he walks into a locker room. And I don’t even want to think about what he destroys with women . . .




“Meh. I’ve seen bigger,” I force out, fighting to maintain my composure.




Noah chuckles. “I don’t think so, sweetheart.”




“Well, th-that monster is not coming anywhere near my uterus. No, thank you. I prefer to keep my organs intact.”




Noah’s grin widens. “I doubt that, but just to be on the safe side, I’ll ease it in nice and slow. Piece of cake. Plus, you’ve got good health insurance, right?”




“That is not funny, Noah. Now, put that thing away or I’ll remove it.”




I try to sound stern, but my shaking voice and bright red cheeks surely give me away. Why the hell can’t I stop staring?




He chuckles—yeah, the jerk can definitely see right through me—but he obliges, tucking the beast back into its lair.

“If you want to date me, all you need to do is say the word. I’d never let you go.”

I added Sage to my rugby club’s annual list of women who are off limits thinking I could protect her from the gorillas I play with. Aspen's a small town in the off season when the dating pool shrinks to the size of a melted snowflake. Never did I think I’d be the one to break the code and date her.

Even if it’s all for show. A wager between friends. An excuse to hang out with her more.

Nothing more than that. Right?

***

Who agrees to date their best friend over a green smoothie? Apparently this girl right here.

Now the man-bun-sporting South African rugby god next door is my fake boyfriend. I need to rebuild my confidence after some poor dating decisions. Who could be better to fluff my ego than Aspen’s hottest bachelor?

This situation is a win-win. Right?
