Seduction & Snacks by Tara Sivec

Seduction & Snacks (Chocolate Lovers #1)

By Tara Sivec

Released: June 2012

Spoiler Free Review by Rachel


Synopsis:

Claire is a twenty-something, single mom that grudgingly helps her best friend sell sex toys while she attempts to make enough money to start her own business to give her foul-mouthed, but extremely loveable (when he's asleep) toddler a better life.

When Carter, the one-night-stand from her past that changed her life forever, shows up in her hometown bar without any recollection of her besides her unique chocolate scent, Claire will make it a point that he remembers her this time.

With Carter's undisguised shock at suddenly finding out he has a four-year-old son and Claire's panic that her stretch marks and slim to none bedroom experience will send the man of her dreams heading for the hills, the pair will do whatever they can to get their happily ever after.

Warning: contains explicit sex, profanity and enough sarcasm to choke a horse.

Review

Tara Sivec, you crazy broad.

This book had me rolling in laughter and tears....and that's putting it mildly! There was plenty of sugary sweet, a shit load of sass, and a fluck ton of one liners that'll have you giggling like a prepubescent tweenager.



The synopsis pretty much lays it all out there for you. Claire meets Carter at a party, they have a wee bit too much fun, things happen because of said fun, and then....poof, neither really remembers the other. Not enough to locate them again. And Claire REALLY needs to locate this stud muffin, STAT!Years later, in walks Carter into her workplace and the rest is printed for your reading pleasure.
Actual, real LIFE happens in this book, and I freakin floved it!!! 
Seduction and Snacks was such a  unique experience and different from anything I'd ever read. With chapter titles such as "I Got a Big Weiner", "Claire's Coochie Kills", "Quivering Loins", and "Have You Seen Mike Hunt", how can it not be hilariously great?
 Pacing and story flow is spot on with hilarious secondary characters. Claire's father was one of my favorites! I was late to the Tara Sivec game but I cannot wait to get my hands on the rest of this series! Find her on facebook and twitter, you won't regret it!

"Her first year away is turning out to be nearly perfect, but one weekend of giving in to heated passion will change everything.

Eighteen-year-old Harper has grown up under the thumb of her career marine father. Ready to live life her own way and to experience things she's only ever heard of from the jarheads in her father's unit, she's on her way to college at San Diego State University.

Thanks to her new roommate, Harper is introduced to a world of parties, gorgeous guys, family, and emotions. She finds herself being torn in two as she quickly falls in love with both her new boyfriend, Brandon, and her roommate's brother, Chase. Despite their dangerous looks and histories, both men adore Harper and would do anything for her, including taking a step back if it would mean she'd be happy."

Wow, what can I say about this book? This book should have came with a warning label letting you know your heart will break like an earthquake with little aftershocks to follow painfully ripping it just as it starts to heal again.  Everybody on the planet needs to go out and buy this book (along with a box of Kleenex) right now!!! This is amazing, yet heartbreaking story about love, family and friendship.

The Perfect Game (The Perfect Game #1) by J Sterling

"He's a game she never intended to play. 
And she's the game changer he never knew he needed.

The Perfect Game tells the story of college juniors, Cassie Andrews & Jack Carter. When Cassie meets rising baseball hopeful Jack, she is determined to steer clear of him and his typical cocky attitude. But Jack has other things on his mind... like getting Cassie to give him the time of day. 

They're both damaged, filled with mistrust and guarded before they find one another (and themselves) in this emotional journey about love and forgiveness. Strap yourselves for a ride that will not only break your heart, but put it back together. 

Sometimes life gets ugly before it gets beautiful..."


This is a roller-coaster ride! Seriously! I've never read something that made me feel like a bipolar.  I really really liked this book. I would give the first half 3 stars. Once I hit a little past half way, I could not put this book down!

Wallbanger by Alice Clayton

Wallbanger (Cocktail #1) by Alice Clayton
Spoiler Free Review by Krystal



"The first night after Caroline moves into her fantastic new San Francisco apartment, she realizes she's gaining an intimate knowledge of her new neighbor's nocturnal adventures. Thanks to paper-thin walls and the guy's athletic prowess, she can hear not just his bed banging against the wall but the ecstatic response of what seems (as loud night after loud night goes by) like an endless parade of women. And since Caroline is currently on a self-imposed dating hiatus, and her neighbor is clearly lethally attractive to women, she finds her fantasies keep her awake even longer than the noise. So when the wallbanging threatens to literally bounce her out of bed, Caroline, clad in sexual frustration and a pink baby-doll nightie, confronts Simon Parker, her heard-but-never-seen neighbor. The tension between them is as thick as the walls are thin, and the results just as mixed. Suddenly, Caroline is finding she may have discovered a whole new definition of neighborly... 
In a delicious mix of silly and steamy, Alice Clayton dishes out a hot and hilarious tale of exasperation at first sight..."
