Conklin's Foundation Review
Conklin’s
Foundations (book 2) By
Brooke Page
Conklin’s Foundations is the second book in the Conklin
Trilogy… and I think Tyler Conklin just found a permanent place in my heart. It
picks up after Becca gives all the “nasties” in her life a piece of her mind
and is utterly disappointed in the people she thought loved her. Don’t worry, she
doesn’t get to wallow in self pity to long…Tyler comes to her rescue, queue “knight on white horse
fantasy” **sigh**.
After some amazing
make-up sex and beautiful jewelry, things finally start to settle down as Tyler
and Becca as they take their relationship to the next level. This doesn’t last
long for them, especially when Tyler’s “old” lover and nanny, Margo, (ewww)
decides to show up and disrupt their lives. As Becca tries to handle the
situation, her insecurities almost get the best of her. Tyler tries to show her
she is the only woman for him, but sometimes woman can be doubtful, especially
when there is another woman in the mix…
There is love, comedy, betrayal, shockers, and some super
sexy Tyler/Becca scenes that are hot hot hot! If you loved Conklin’s Blueprints
and can’t wait to find out what happens to Becca and Tyler… you need to read
Foundations – Brooke brings it all to the table in this romantic trilogy.
**Excerpt**
Becca: I
quickly grabbed my drink and headed into the dining room, Tyler hot on my tail.
He smacked my ass just as I was going to sit down, Jamie and Nathan got the
full glimpse as I yelped. “Tyler!” I whinned, rubbing my ass then taking a
seat. He just grinned as he sat down wiggling his eyebrows. “Holy shit, how
drunk are you?” Nathan asked Tyler. Tyler shook his head at Nathan as though he
was crazy then picked up his cards. “I thought you said he was a gentle lover?”
Jamie snickered then covered her mouth the second she realized what she had
said. My face went red with embarrassment as Nathan let out a howl. “Tyler,
you’ve really gone soft,” Nathan mocked…

Beautifully Awake by Riley MacKenzie Review
Beautifully Awake – By Riley
Mackenzie
Review By Tonya Nichols
If you are a fan of Grey’s Anatomy or ER,
you will love Beautifully Awake just like I did. Hot, arrogant neurosurgeon…
OMG! Chase Colton is one hot piece of arse I would consider banging my head up
against a wall for. I fell in love with this broody, possessive, sensitive,
funny doctor.
Lili
Porter is a case worker with a rough past that is just trying to get through
life day by day… sleep-running. Chase Colton is a hot shot neurosurgeon with
his own dark past, whose cases Lili has just been assigned to. Chase is all
business in the office, except for the mixed signals he sends Lili. One minute he is Dr. Compassionate and the
next he is back to Dr. Intensity, leaving Lili hot, bothered, and confused.
After a hot make out session and some jealous encounters, Chase and Lili finally
try to make a relationship work.
Can they beat their own demons and overcome
the running they’ve become so accustomed to, and become what each other needs?
This is a beautiful story of love, loss, tragedy, friendship, and human
compassion. Don’t worry you will get some definite steamy sexiness and laugh
out loud moment as well…
Excerpt**** This is an excerpt from Sierra,
Lili’s foul mouthed pregnant best friend, who toasts at dinner with Chase and
Lili after her labor scare – (talking to Chase….)
“Turns out you and my cervix have something in common, or so I’ve
heard.” Sierra clinked our glasses. “To long and firm!” --- I freakin loved Sierra!

TEASER:
When he probed with more questions about what I looked for in query letters, I told him I liked romance novels and I basically looked for potential book boyfriends.
“Book boyfriends?” He chuckled out loud. As I watched, his chest moved to the rhythm of his laugh. “Really?” He took his last bite and chugged his coffee.
“Yes…really.” I had already finished my plate since I was too nervous to talk.
“Is that like for people who can’t get one in real life?” He was totally amused by this notion.
“No…silly,” I giggled. “Readers read books to help them escape from the daily routine of life. Many of these romance books have a swoon-worthy, gorgeous guy with really nice abs and a six pack, who can deliver wild, hot sex.” Just the thought alone made me turn red and I froze when he gave me a heated look. Then, his eyes concentrated on my lips, shifted to my breasts, then back up to my eyes when I said ‘wild, hot sex.’ I just described him and what he could potentially do.
Gravitating toward me, his eyes locked lustfully on mine. His lips were just inches away as they parted to speak and I didn’t know how he got so close to me. “I would like to be your book boyfriend,” he said with the hottest sound that could sing out of his lustrous, lick-able mouth. The puff of his breath on my lips sizzled way down to my sex. He reached out to my face, his thumb sensually sliding, feather light to touch my bottom lip with one long, slow stroke. As I watched his tongue glide over his bottom lip at the same time, I quivered beyond control.
Completely dumbfounded, I sat there staring at him and in my mind, I had already taken off my clothes for him. Blinking because that was all I could do, I wanted to say yes, but my pride and my head knew better and stopped me.
Suddenly, he broke his gaze and it felt like he had just dumped ice water over my head. “Is that what a book boyfriend would say and do?” he chuckled as he picked up our plates and took them to the kitchen.
What just happened? I was almost certain my face was deep red, because I felt it down to my toes.
