Loveswept 

In the latest Disgraced Lords novel from USA Today bestselling author Bronwen Evans, a vivacious thrill seeker clashes with her dutiful defender—causing irresistible sparks to fly.

Independent and high-spirited, Lady Portia Flagstaff has never been afraid to take a risk, especially if it involves excitement and danger. But this time, being kidnapped and sold into an Arab harem is the outcome of one risk too many. Now, in order to regain her freedom, she has to rely on the deliciously packaged Grayson Devlin, Viscount Blackwood, a man who despises her reckless ways—and stirs in her a thirst for passion.

After losing his mother and two siblings in a carriage accident years ago, Grayson Devlin promised Portia’s dying brother that he’d always watch over his wayward sister. But having to travel to Egypt to rescue the foolhardy girl has made his blood boil. Grayson already has his hands full trying to clear his best friend and fellow Libertine Scholar of a crime he didn’t commit. Worse still, his dashing rescue has unleashed an unforeseen and undesired consequence: marriage. Now it’s more than Portia he has to protect . . . it’s his battered heart.

My Rockin' Review:

I got this gem of a read from Netgalley.  I'm new to Tracy Brogan and this one made a fan of me! The third in the Bell Harbor series,it can be read completely stand alone.   

Delaney is hiding out in the wilds of Michigan because her rat of an ex-boyfriend post a sex tape that he secretly took of them. *DOUCHE*. As her family is part of a reality show, she wanted to escape the media attention. 

*I get it, I do! But to run and hide is NOT my thing! He'd have been sued the second that tape came out!* 

She meets up with Grant Connelly, a reality cinematographer, who just got dumped for his boss. Unfortunately, Grant's mom takes Delaney's bag full of hideout cash and makes a run for the casino.

Grant and Delaney are forced into a road trip and along the way all the mishaps lead them on an adventure and eventually to love. But you know, the whole hidden identity part catches up to Delaney and they have issues to work out. The Paradise Brothers ROCK!! LOVED Them!! I want to see Reggie's story! That man deserves one! 

This story had obvious slapstick  tones to it but with the full-fledged characters made it sweet and funny. I'd definitely read another Tracy Brogan story! If you're looking for a humorous read, this is the one for you!

Bestselling, award-winning author Tracy Brogan writes fun, funny stories about ordinary people finding extraordinary love, and lush historical romance full of damsels causing distress - and the occasional man in a kilt.

My Rockin' Review:

This is sadly the last book in The Duke's Men series. I've been looking forward to Dom's story since the beginning! He made a huge sacrifice for his illegitimate family. What legitimate second son does that?! An honorable one!

Twelve years ago, Dominick (Dom) Manton was on the fast track to becoming a barrister, he had a fiancee he adored and all was well with his world. Until his evil brother, Viscount Rathmoor disowned him for choosing to protect their illegitimate younger brother. His life fell apart and he had no wish to drag his Jane into such a hard life. He employs devious methods to get Jane to break it off.

Jane Vernon, Dom's former fiancee, realizes that she was tricked into ending their engagement soon after, but realizes that Dom needs to want to be with her. She waits for a long time then gets engaged right when Dom becomes the Viscount. Jane's cousin, is now the former Viscountess and she goes missing.

Jane is extremely worried about her cousin and feel's something dreadful has happened. She turns to Dom, who used to own, Manton Investigations, to help find her. Dom has his own opinion on what her cousin is doing and who she's doing it with and why. Jane disagree's wholeheartedly and the tension is heavy on top of the rekindling feelings sizzling between them.

Dom realizes he loves Jane still and will do anything to have a life with her. Jane has her reasons for not allowing Dom to control their future. Will they be able to work through their differences in order to get their HEA?

Sabrina Jeffries rocked this one! I enjoyed seeing the return of all the previous characters. The sisterhood attempting to make sure these two get together was something else! I'm looking forward to seeing Jane's ex-fiancee finding a heroine of his own!

Note from Nelle: Month Hiatus and Snow Days!

Note from Nelle

Oh Readers, I've been absent for a bit and thought I'd tell you why! I'm in a bit of a blog slump. I'm going to take the rest of March and catch up on my reading! I'll be back here and there, but not full-time until April 6th! I'm working on new IDEAS so stay tuned! 

Here are some pictures of our Febrary SNOW DAYS!! Who would have thought Northwest Tennessee would see so much SNOW!!

 Jake, my Jack Russell, loves to put his nose in the snow :)

Max, My Lhasa Apso/ Shih Tzu, loves rolling in the snow. He's so white he disappears into it if we aren't careful!

My daughter's attempt at a snow man. The snow wasn't sticking enough, it was nice and fluffy though!

Did I say I HATE shoveling snow and ice!!! Well I DO!

How have you spent your snow days?!
