Christian Ryan knows love when he sees it. Having watched his uncles and father fall in love right in front of his eyes, he’s confident Nia Matthews is his forever girl. Absolutely nothing will stand in his way of making Nia his.

Nia Matthews has loved Christian Ryan her whole life. He’s her best friend, her lover, her everything. But she yearns for more. She yearns for a life outside of Booker, a life of her own.

When it comes to light just how apart the two are, the distance seems insurmountable. Will they break up, break out, or realise that sometimes the best things come from the most unexpected circumstances?
 Available now! 

When I was three years old, I literally saw my aunt and uncle fall in love right in front of me. I thought things would be the same for me: one day I’d see her and bam! We’d fall in love and ride off into the sunset. Only it wasn’t like that. The girl I love has had my heart since I was ten years old and today I’m going to ask her to marry me, to be mine forever.

I know people might say we’re young, but I love her, she loves me, and I know we’re it for each other.

Nia Matthews is… well, she’s my everything. When we were younger, she was my friend. Along with her twin brother, Ryder, she was my best friend. Her parents, Cole and Knley, have been part of our team basically forever. Cole was one of our Ryan Racing riders, then when an accident cut his racing career short he became our technical director. They’ve always been around, always been an honorary part of the Ryan family.

Then things started to change. We got older, I watched all of my uncles fall in love, then finally, my mum and dad. I was surrounded by love. One day I heard Nia and Aunt Knley singing, and I was struck. Maybe I did get my bam! moment after all. I heard her sweet voice and I was hooked. I knew that day I was going to marry her.

We started dating after my last year of high school. Even though Nia was fourteen, it was never weird between us; shit, it wasn’t until two years into our relationship that we started sleeping together. I think our parents were wary, but they also saw how I looked at her, how I treated her, like she was the most precious thing on the planet, because she was. She is. And today I’m going to ask her to be mine forever. I’m twenty-seven, and not getting any younger. I want Nia to be my wife. I want to start a family with her and all that entails. Like everything in my life, I want it, and I want it now. I’m a racer, and as a racer, I can’t compromise. Compromising on safety means I can get hurt or die. Compromising on speed means I don’t win. It’s the little things that you think won’t really matter that can make the most difference. That’s why I won’t yield. I won’t settle on the track and I won’t settle when it comes to Nia. That is, if my cousin ever leaves.

“Hart, babe, I love you. You’re my favourite cousin, but I really need to be somewhere.”

Hartley is Uncle Jax and Aunt Bentley’s daughter. Well, one of them. Aunt Bentley can’t have kids, so they applied to adopt one from South Korea. Only once they got there to pick up Emerson, Hartley wailed and wailed, so after a huge kerfuffle and a much longer trip than they anticipated, they adopted her too. It’s been a theme in Hartley’s life ever since.

“Don’t make me go back there,” she begs as she lies on my couch. “My dad’s being a total caveman. I can’t take it!”

“I’m sure it’s not as bad as it seems,” I reply.

“He’s being totally unreasonable, not letting me go to Nicky Sims’s party.”

I know Nicky Sims. I also know his parties, and Uncle Jax is right not to let his eighteen-year-old daughter go, even if she is legally an adult.

“Maybe he’s right not to let you go,” I say and brace myself for the shrieking to start.

“What?” she demands on cue.

“I know Nicky Sims, Hart,” I say. “I also know his parties. They’re full-on. You don’t need to be partying that hard, or with that crowd.”

“Oh please,” she says, crossing her arms over her chest. “Like you and Nia weren’t going to worse. Plus, she was younger than I am now when you guys got together.”

I sigh and run my hand through my messy mop of dark brown hair. “Yes, Nia was young when we got together, but our parents knew we were responsible and could be trusted.” I raise an eyebrow.

“I can be trusted,” Hartley insists.

“Really?” I ask.

“Yeah, totally.”

“So you almost driving your mum’s car through the garage wall and into the house, that’s trustworthy?”

“It was an accident.”

“You were ten and couldn’t see over the steering wheel.”

Review: Embraced (Enduring Kiss #4) - C.E. Black

Embraced by C.E. Black Ann's rating: 5 of 5 stars Read as a standalone.  This is a fantastic book. It is an easy read but don’t start reading it too late at night or you will probably end up with a book hangover. It is very difficult to put down. Sean is a lost wolf. The woman he loves has married another man, and he is heartbroken. To relieve his suffering, he decides to get out of town and have a drink or two, then he meets Sarah. Sarah is a business owner of a bakery called Decadent Delights and her life seems to be going just the way she wants…until she meets Sean at the bar.

This story has sorrow, angst, anger but als...

ARC Review: The Charmed Fates by Christine Wenrick

Tomorrow is the release day of Christine Wenrick's 'The Charmed Fates', the final installment of her amazing trilogy.  We'd like to say a HUGE congratulations to Christine on the amazing success of her fabulous trilogy. Reviewer: Em Rating: 5/5 Wow, oh wow!! This book  didn’t disappoint me one iota. I opened to the first page to be induced and transported back into the world of Caleb, Olivia, Jax and Gemma. I started to read and couldn’t put the book down. I wasn’t surprised as I had had the same experience with the first two books, the storyline wrapped around me and enfolded me thoroughly taking me on the journey.
