**REVIEW TOUR** The Boss Project by Vi Keeland




Title: The Boss Project
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 11, 2022


BLURB

The first time I met Merrick Crawford was during my job interview.

Well, technically, I’d met him twenty minutes earlier when he’d barged into a fitting room a few doors down from my appointment.

I yelled. He yelled. After an argument while standing in my bra, I proceeded to smash the door into the gorgeous jerk, trying to yank it shut.

As you might imagine, I was freaked out when I discovered that the rude guy was my potential new boss.

Yet he didn’t seem to recognize me. Or so I thought… Until we wound up bickering again during my interview and he told me to go sniff my armpit.

Okay, so maybe I hadn’t exactly been changing when he walked in on me. In my defense, I’d been stuck on a hot train for two hours and wanted to make sure I didn’t smell.

I obviously didn’t expect to get the job. But somehow an invitation to a second interview arrived in my inbox.

Before I left, I asked to see Merrick. I needed to know why I was even in consideration after our disastrous start.

Turned out, Merrick only wanted to hire me because I was the least competent candidate. It seemed his board was making him fill the position, against his wishes.

I didn’t really want to work in a place where my boss expected me to fail. But I figured maybe I’d enjoy proving him wrong. It was a little thing I dubbed the boss project.

What I wasn’t prepared for was that there would be other things I’d enjoy doing to Merrick Crawford.

Getting involved with the boss wasn’t the smartest choice.

But you know what they say about choices: Some we regret, some we are proud of. I just had no idea where this one was going to land.

5 Stars

This is yet another fantastic stand alone from Vi Keeland.  I always love these stand alones.

The first meeting between Evie and Merrick was hilarious.  But the second meeting was awkward.

He's now her boss!

These two are connected by their grandma's.  Especially since Evie is also friends with Kitty, Merrick's grandma.

There is a lot of baggage for these two to unpack.

Some of it's heartbreaking.  Especially when we get the full story about Merrick's past.

I did want an update about the lunch Evie had to go to.  I would have loved to see how that interaction went.

I loved reading this.

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** My Scorned Best Friend by Piper Rayne


 

My Scorned Best Friend by Piper Rayne is now live!

 

Xavier and Clara kissing in a tree...

When your best friend growing up is a girl, that's the song your classmates taunt you with over and over again. But it was never like that... until now.

It's always been Clara and me. She's the only one who truly knows me. After I was drafted into the NFL and ended up the starting quarterback for the San Francisco Kingsmen, I begged her to come with me. But she had her own life and responsibilities back in our small Alaskan town, so I didn't fault her for staying.

We remained the best of friends despite the distance. I'd hang with her in Alaska during the off season, and she'd visit me in California while I was playing. Then, one night the lines blurred for the briefest of moments and set in motion a series of events that changed everything.

I'm not proud of the decisions I made after that fateful night, and I plan on making amends, because I need Clara back in my life. But not as my best friend—as my everything.

Yes!  We finally get Xavier and Clara's story!!
This is book seven, and even though it is a stand alone, the previous books have been building this story up.
We finally learn what happened to make these two ex-bestfriends.
This is such a great story.
I will admit my eyes got misty when they opened the box at the end.  It was perfect and awesome.

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Office Date by Rachel Van Dyken


 

Office Date by Rachel Van Dyken is now live!

 

#1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken delivers an over-the-top, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy with this hilarious, standalone new adult romance.


I've known Jack my entire life.
We went from being high school enemies to making out one fateful night at college to him being a giant D and making me cry.
Now we're both interns at the same company.
Mortal enemy interns.

So when the chance pops up to finally beat him at something, to land my dream job plus a bonus? I don't even blink.

I'm in. All in.
I mean, how hard can it be?
The managers say it's like the Olympics for interns. All we have to do is play a few silly games, and if we win--our futures are unicorns and free wine for all.
The only problem? Jack's my partner, and in order to win, we will have to get along.

As the stakes get higher, so does the heat, and damn is he hot when he's... never mind. I can focus. I can totally focus and not make out with him or end up in his bed--again.
I can do it.
For the sake of my career, I can do it.
I just need a blindfold, sage, and a lot of prayers.

My job is the only thing I have right now. My focus is strong.
But when that stupid guy smiles, all I can think about is that one kiss, followed by the second, and I wonder if my priorities are in order or if I'm falling for the enemy once again.

Welcome to "Max's Ministrations"
Let the crazy begin!

This is the second book that has Max playing matchmaker with interns while they compete for a job.
When I say compete, I mean it can get crazy.

This is Ivy and Jack's story

These two have known each other since middle school.  They even went to the same college.

This is a hate to love, forced proximity, with help from an outside force (ie Max).

This book had me cracking up.  I needed laughs like this gave me.

Jack is like a mini version of Max.

I love this book and story.

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Offside With #55 by Piper Rayne


 

Offside with #55 by Piper Rayne is now live!

 

The last thing any professional hockey player wants is to be the old man in the game. The guy who doesn't know when it's time to retire. Still, I can't bear the thought of leaving the game.

This past year I've reflected on all my regrets, and I told myself that once I retire it'll be the time to settle down and start a family. But this is where it gets tricky.

I think I've found her—my Mrs. Although she'll deny our connection to anyone who asks. We've been sleeping together casually and since I'm still playing hockey, I've let her get what she wants—me—whenever she wants.

After being told my career as a player is over, the owner of Florida Fury grants me a shot to stay in the game. A coaching position I didn't know I wanted until it was offered. The catch? He's also passing the family business down to his daughter.

Who's his daughter?

The woman who's been in and out of my bed for the past year. Which means the woman I intend to make my wife is now my new boss.

This is the final book in the Hockey Hotties series.  They are stand alones, but these two have been teased throughout the series.
It's been a constant will they/won't they, are they/aren't they for all the other books.
This is Kane and Lana...Finally!
There are some bumps along their road.  Some career changes and plenty of changes in feelings.
I love how their story worked out.
This is a great read and a great series.
I can't wait for the next series...football!
Oh, did the Fury finally win the cup?  You'll find out when you read this.

This brand-new saga of interconnected standalones unites new characters with beloved originals in dark, and sexy stories laced with suspense!
    
Fame. Money. Status. An infinite number of women standing ringside in hopes of one night with him. These are all the things Carter Reynolds loves about being MMA royalty. As a UFC Heavyweight champion, and the son of the illustrious Matt Reynolds, Carter thinks he has everything he could ever want.

Until he comes face to face with Emma Jameson—the one who got away. The pair are bonded by a secret from their past, one that none in their inner circle can ever know about…

Thanks to her father, Emma is no stranger to the MMA world. UFC Middleweight champion, Ryley Jameson, is known far and wide for his scandalous antics in and out of the ring. His fame put her in the spotlight at a very early age. It even led to her lucrative modeling career and the opportunity for her to travel the world. Now Emma is back with the family of fighters she left behind and quickly discovers a darkness that has wriggled its way into the MMA fold.

Someone demands retribution for the sins of the past, and they’ve chosen to make Emma their first target. Determined to keep her safe, Carter will do whatever it takes to protect her, even if that means putting his life on the line.

As hidden truths are revealed, Carter and Emma find that no one in their circle is safe… and this is only the beginning.

This is the first book in Gloves Off-The Next Generation series.  Now I have to re-read the original series, because it's been awhile.
I wish I would have done a re-read before reading this.  
An old enemy pops up in this book and starts everything off.
This is Carter and Emma's story.  They were a lot of firsts for each other.  But neither fought for the other when life and dreams pulled them to opposite coasts.
But now they're both back.
These two would do anything for each other.  And Carter proves it.
This whole group has a lot to go through.  Luckily now they will have help from an unlikely source.
I am surprised the parents didn't figure something was going on because of the tats though.
Can't wait to see how it all plays out in the end.

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Harley by Marie James

 Release Date: May 5


They say misery loves company, but after losing the love of my life all I wanted was to be completely alone.
Having a young daughter made that impossible.
I couldn’t curl into myself.
I couldn’t spend hours in the dark living in regret.
I couldn’t end it all no matter how many times that thought crossed my mind.
Regretfully, I couldn’t go through life on my own.
I needed help, and although my teammates were there to lend a helping hand, I still needed more than they could offer.
Alyssa Dansby suffered more than any woman ever should.
She came to the Cerberus clubhouse to heal, working in the clubhouse’s nursery.
She was a godsend for my daughter Aria.
She was trouble for me.
I shouldn’t be thinking about the woman caring for my child so soon after my wife’s death.
We were both looking for our new normal.
I never imagined mine would include her.

This is the 21st book in the Cerberus MC series.  They are stand alones for the most part.
In a previous book, we see when Harley and Lana first came to Cerberus and when Harley was notified of her death.  Harley's reaction is devasting and heartbreaking.
He has his grief and guilt to deal with in this book.  While dealing with that, he also has to learn to be a single dad to an infant daughter.  
His future he had planned out, it's gone and he's lost.
Or so he thinks. 
Ali was rescued after being kidnapped.  She goes to Cerberus to try and heal and to move past it.  She wants her life back.
These two have a lot of bumps in the road.  It's not easy.  It's a struggle.
I did wish Ali would have stood up to Harley some though.
This is a great read.
Meet Marie James


Let's see...where to begin...

I'm inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we're doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master's degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there's usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I'm not writing; I'm reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I'm reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it's gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.
