Army Strong and dripping with sin ...

Paul Jackson had his dreams mapped out. He’d graduate from high school, attend college, go pro for football, marry his high school sweetheart and live happily ever after. Until his high school sweetheart threw away everything he never knew he wanted. Throwing caution to the wind, he put his country’s dreams before his own.

The Army was a perfect distraction from her. It helped him become a man. To serve, to protect, to fight, to become strong. But when Paul returns home after three tours, he knows there’s nothing better than sexy woman, a shot of tequila and a pocket full of cash.

But he still thinks about her …

Joselyn Marquez’s life changed the night of her seventeenth birthday. A forty-eight hour roller coaster trip sent her running for her life. She was homeless, and her family had disappeared. All odds were against her.

But sometimes the odds work out.

Years later, she’s an FBI agent serving as an undercover escort to investigate sex trafficking in Las Vegas. When the investigation connects her past, will she be able to do the right thing or will she still keep running from the night of her seventeenth birthday?

Tensions will rise.

Sparks will fly.

Passions will soar.

And the past will come knocking …

REVIEW

Tequila & Lace. Wow, it was certainly an intriguing read that deals with difficult situations. That was certainly not the happiest of books. Both Paul and Jocelyn have had a difficult life and it's not gotten any easier for either of them. Although it was great to see their interactions. They certainly weren't like most interactions and stood out in my mind. 

And there were moments you were just screaming at the characters to do what they think they should. But of course most times they didn't listen and you watching tings play out that you think could have been prevented. But then there wouldn't really be much of a story. 

The writing, including the ending was well done. Kimberly Knight has created a great read!

Whiskey, women and sleepless nights…

United States Army Captain Gabriel Hastings knew he would always follow in his grandfather’s footsteps. Serving his country was his destiny.

Until he fell in love…

When Gabe’s love affair is cut short, he turns to whiskey for comfort and swears he will never fall in love again.

Until he bumps into an unexpected angel…

By all appearances, Autumn Jones has the perfect life. Her husband, Richard, is a loving man who wants to be a father to her unborn children. But Autumn knows the truth. Richard has a controlling, dark side that leaves nothing to chance, especially Autumn. He’ll stop at nothing to make her the trophy wife he wants her to be.

When Autumn bumps into Gabe, he consumes her every thought, but she can’t act on her feelings. She’s married to a dark man she can never leave.

When he learns who Autumn’s husband really is, Gabe knows he will stop at nothing to protect her.

Or is it too late for him to save his angel?

Getting By by Claudia Y. Burgoa

(Image found on Goodreads)

"Before my eyes began the next big flood, I swept the memories under the imaginary rug of not now." -Claudia Y. Burgoa, Getting By

Emma arrives back in her hometown, already regretting her decision to be her friend's Maid of Honor. At first, only because she still feels guilt over the death of her parents. But than it quickly develops into seeing the man that she fell in love with and than left. Instead of the sleep with everyone he can week, Jake finds himself having to make decisions; decisions that could break or make Jake and Emma. Find the official description on Goodreads.

Okay, so just gonna say that yay for Claudia Y Burgoa mentioning the Avengers! I just felt like that needed to be mentioned or my review would be totally weird or something like that. But anyway, on to the actual review!

Getting By goes back and forth between Emma and Jake's perspectives. And it's obvious as well as mentioned in the chapter headings. This allows us to understand both of their perspectives(even though at times I felt like both were a little...crazy for some of their actions, even when we know their thoughts.). We are also given much of their shared history before getting into the main part of the book. This allows a deeper understanding of both characters, and their shared past, although we still don't know a whole lot about their separate pasts until later in the book.

I think that Getting By sticks really close to real life. In fact, Emma's a bit screwed up and while some of it is her cross to bear, it's also because of some of the issues that her parents helped to create. I'm not saying that everyone is going to be like Emma. But I do think that parents, while trying their best, can also create issues in their own children. And we see this in Getting By, Emma isn't an artist even though she really wanted to be when she was younger, because her father disapproved of it and after his death she was trying to make him proud.

It wasn't hard to read Getting By even with both characters having their moments of stupidity. It was fun to see the two battle their feelings for each other and the reader is entertained by their problems and how they work through things.
