Blog Tour & Review: Riding It Out by Jennifer Foor


 
Synopsis:

One woman

One man

An empty bed and breakfast

A summer storm

One night they'll never forget - so they thought...

 

When my aunt passed away and left me her dilapidated bed and breakfast it was all so surreal. I hadn't been back to that beach in many years, and the idea of revisiting left me sad and vulnerable.

I never planned on having guests. In fact, I just wanted to close up the place and sell it, so that I could move on with my life.

Then the storm happened.

Taken by surprise, I planned on waiting for it to pass. The house creaked and the power went out. That's when someone knocked on the door.

He was a stranger, dripping wet, cold, and looking for shelter. I couldn't turn him away...

What happened next between us opened new doors, changing everything I thought I wanted for myself.

The only question is if I can trust him, or will his secrets destroy it all?

 

 

GOODREADS:


I fell in love with Jennifer Foor when I read the Mitchell Family Series. So I was excited to read Riding It Out. It's a story of self discovery, second chances, secret identities and steamy scenes like only Ms. Foor can write.

When Erica inherits her beloved aunt's B & B, she has the life she always thought she wanted. A career she devoted years of hard work to and her family. Upon taking ownership of the house, she visits the home and courtesy of a storm, meets the handsome Reed. He turns her world upside down and has her questioning everything. But is Reed all he seems?

 I really enjoyed this book. It had me smiling, crying and fanning myself. There were twists I never saw coming and moments that warmed my heart. If you're looking for a book with a good HEA, this is one for you! 4.5 stars! Well done Jennifer! 
 

 

AUTHOR BIO:

Jennifer Foor is an award winning Contemporary Romance Author. She's best known for the Mitchell Family Series, which includes ten books.

She is married with two children and spends most of her time behind a keyboard, writing stories that come from her heart.

Bree Gramble has dated Richard for the last 7 years. They had plans to get married. She had planned her fairytale wedding. The worst thing that could happen took place. The groom left her at the alter to be with their wedding planner. Bree is down and out lucky for her she has friends that want her to get back in the dating game. What’s the best way to get over your ex is to have a casual encounter when at least that’s what her bestfriends think. When Aubree goes on a blind date that her Mindy set her up with a stranger comes to her rescue from the horrible asshole of a guy. Not only does Bree fall for her protector she kisses him and get to get his name. Now all she can think of is this nameless man that give her the best kiss of her life.

Although Bree first blind date was a date from hell she let Adelle set her up on another blind date. Bree was ready to let go of her heartbreak. She wasn’t sure what kind of person Adelle was going to set her up with. But she wasn’t expecting it to be her mystery man. Yes, she found him. What could go wrong now?

Bree is trying to move past the shock of her bestfriend Adelle hiring a prostitute in an attempt to help her move past her break up and bad date. Although she knew she did it with good intentions it hurt Bree’s feelings. She felt like out of all people Adelle should’ve known how she would feel about it. She hasn’t talk to Adelle and is having mixed feelings about Cade.

Bree is a strong woman to be able to move forward after all that she has been through. Bree knows the kind of woman she wants to be and is willing to let down her walls to become that woman. Let’s see what the help of a special some can do for a woman’s confidence.

Bree always knew she could fall for Cade and now it is getting harder to hide her feelings. She also knows that if her feels start to show the arrangement is over. Bree find out some devastating news and tries to cancel the arrangement with Cade. Cade is not having it and comes to Bree's house to let her know that it’s not over until he says it over. When she tells him why, he tells her that he won't be seeing her friend

The most of this series I read the more I’m loving it. Bree is making way toward becoming this confident woman. She is ready to do what it takes to show her friends she is serious and has come a long why from that shy insecure woman. Her problem was she didn’t want another man she wanted Cade. She had a strong feeling that he felt the same way but was constantly and odd with herself about the things he say. She knows that he doesn't do relationships so she has to make sure she keeps her feelings hidden from him. There is one problem Cade is starting to have feeling for Bree as well. I know that shouldn’t be a problem but Cade doesn’t do feeling well and he’s not sure how to handle them. We can only hope for the sake of Bree he pulls it together and comings to his senses

4

This is the installment where Bree is put to the test to see what she has learned. This is also the installment at I fell in love with Cade. Bree had another date that didn’t ends so well and once again Cade had to rescue her. Brees isn’t sure what to do with her feelings and neither does Cade. Hopefully he won’t continue to push her away and follow his heart.

I love the way this series ended. It was a beautiful finale for this couple. Cade never anybody would want him for him only for what he had to offer, his body and good looks. He never thought he would find a woman after his heart and soul. Aubrey thought she was destined to be alone. She have had a heart broken into a million piece, dates that looked pass her body. The first time she saw him she knew he was the one. She just didn’t think it was take so must to make him hers. Together they mended and fixed each other hearts. While he was teaching her confidences she was teacher him he is worth more than what meets the eye. This was my favorite of the series. They both found the love they were looking for. I especially loved the fact that Cade realizes that Aubrey more special than life itself. I gave this series 4 stars. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Spotlight Tour: DASH Vol 2 by Shantel Tessier


Title: Dash Vol. 2
Author: Shantel Tessier
Genre: Adult, Romance
Release Date: December 30, 2014
I should have walked away that day at the race track. I should have turned my back on Dash and all the feelings I started to have for him. He lied to me. He was keeping secrets from not only my father but me as well. But I couldn’t. There were too many unanswered questions that I needed to know and he promised to tell me. But promises are made to be broken, right? 

I lied. Not because I needed to but because I could. Tabatha was smart, though. She is gonna figure out sooner or later that who I am and who she thinks I am are two very different people. She deserves the truth. But how do I know what the truth is anymore?

My heart pounds in my chest and my body trembles. I gasp, trying to catch my breath.
“You sure know how to stroke a man’s ego,” Dash’s voice whispers into my ear as his hand slides between our bodies and his fingers find my clit. I gasp as he starts to massage it. He chuckles as he buries his face deeper into my neck.
I arch my back, allowing him better access as I suck in another breath. “You’re the one doing all the work,” I pant as his body lies on top of mine.
I feel him smile against my neck. I let out a shriek as he rolls over and pulls me on top of him. He looks up to me with a smirk on his face. A few strands of dark hair stick to his slick forehead. “You can have all the control you want, darling.” I’m momentarily paralyzed as his light gray eyes stare up into mine. The morning light coming in through the window makes them sparkle. The smirk grows across his face as he places his hands behind his head. Arrogant bastard. He knows what he does to me when he looks at me like that. Like I’m the only woman in the world. Like neither one of us have a past. Like we’re not hiding from the present. I don’t know what our future holds, but at the moment, it goes on forever.
I run my hands up his smooth and hard chest, the sweat from our bodies making it slippery. I want to taste him in every way. To the point that it may make me sound somewhat insane. Leaning down, I place my lips on his chest and give him a soft kiss. I continue giving him soft kisses as I slide my body down his.
He lifts his hips and he lets out a deep growl as I wrap my fingers around the base of his dick. I wet my lips and lower my mouth over him as his hands find their way into my hair. So much for being in charge. I don’t mind it, though. He can have all the control over me that he wants.
He lets out a moan as I pull him to the back of my throat. I let out a noise of my own when I taste myself on him. As I go to pull up, his hands in my hair grip me tighter and he lifts his hips, pushing deeper into my mouth. I try to fight the urge to pull back, to fight his control. He’s not Rodger, I tell myself.
“Fuck…Oh…” I run my eyes up his body lying on the white sheets. His stomach muscles clench and his chest rises and falls quickly. His head is thrown back, his jaw tight, as he sucks in breaths through clenched teeth. It’s a sight to see—me allowing him to take pleasure from me the way that he wants. I relax, allowing him to have his way with my mouth as I just allowed him to have my body.
I take him as deep and as fast as he wants to go. And he wants it fast. He doesn’t let up. My jaw is sore and my cheeks hurt but it’s worth it. Anything is worth hearing that man come with my name on his lips.
Once he’s finished, he releases my hair and I pull away from him with a satisfied smile on my face. He grabs me by the shoulders and throws me down beside him. “You’re amazing,” he breathes as he pushes some hair off of my face.
I take in a deep breath. “Not so bad yourself,” I tease.
His smile widens. “So much for stroking my ego,” he mumbles.
I arch an eyebrow. “I think I’ve stroked enough,” I respond, making him fill his bedroom with laughter.

I open my eyes and look at myself in the mirror. I have streaks running down my face from the tears I’ve cried in the last hour. It’s crazy how that memory was from just this morning. We were lying in his bed laughing as we were getting ready for round two. Now I’m standing in the restroom at the hospital waiting to see if he’s gonna be okay.
Dash crashed! It happened so fast that it didn’t register at first. He was riding along on the track after our talk. I had almost left him. I was so pissed at the fact that he was keeping some serious secrets from me. Hell, I thought that Valerie was telling the truth and that she was indeed his girlfriend. My father even believed her. Acted like he knew her. But after talking to him, I believed him. Then he jumped back on his bike and went to finish his practice run.
