**BLOG TOUR WITH REVIEW** Bound by Temptation by Ryan Michele

Title: Bound by Temptation

Series: Ravage MC #19; Bound #10

Author: Ryan Michele

Genre: MC Romance

Release Date: December 13, 2022

Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling author Ryan Michele brings the action packed, steamy next generation Ravage MC filled with angst and loyalty.

Every day like clockwork I entered into Fallon’s Bakery. Coffee. That was what I told myself. I was just coming for coffee.

It had absolutely nothing to do with the woman who always had flour on her face, her hair in a messy bun on the top of her head, and a wide smile to greet every single person who entered the store.

Even for me.

The man who ripped out her heart and walked away, never to look back. I was an a$$hole. I’d thought I’d done it for good reasons. But now, all I could do was order my coffee, smile at her and leave.

No way she’d ever give me a shot again. Too bad considering all I could think about was her. She would forgive me. No matter what I had to do.

I was Axton a brother of the Ravage Motorcycle Club and we never gave up. She didn’t know what was going to hit her because I was coming…for her.

Tonya's Review

4 Stars

This is the 10th book in the Bound series, or the 19th in the Ravage MC.  It is a stand alone.  so if this is your first, you'll be okay, but we do see a lot of the other characters.

There isn't a lot of club drama in this one.  There is a little, but it was a quick clean up.

This si a second chance read.

Ax and Indie were together in high school, until a video came between them and Indie was left hanging in the wind.

I do wanna know what they were being blackmailed about though.

We learned about what happened to Indie while she was gone.

I did figure out who the bad guy was though and why he was doing it.

This is a good read.

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Darkest Power by Rachel Van Dyken

I'll stop at nothing to save her.
Even if it means she dies at my hands.

Darkest Power by Rachel Van Dyken is now live!

What happens when an ancient god is thrust into modern-day life? Find out in #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken's newest paranormal romance.


"...Eventually, the worship of Horus stopped. For the favored god had finally turned his back on his people—and disappeared.

Until now..."

What's the god of the sky and war supposed to do when I'm stuck in modern-day Seattle with a team of immortals who've dropped me right in the middle of a battle between good and evil?

I move in with Tarek, a werewolf, in an effort to join society and learn about modern times. Then I start my own TikTok and go to my brother's bar to watch the ridiculous humans attempt to fall in love over and over again.

Listen, I've already done my part in saving the world from a catastrophe a month ago—which is how I found myself in this very seat at the bar, stuck in a time that's no longer my own.
I'm bored out of my mind until I start bartending at Soul and am forced to train the new hire—Kit. She's clumsy, shows up late to all of her shifts, constantly has it out for me, and doesn't sleep. Ever. Which would make her a great asset, except as the full moon gets closer, she gets harder to control.

When I find out the truth behind her identity, I know I must go down into the Abyss—to the immortals' greatest enemy—to help her ascend. If she doesn't, she'll lose an eternity's worth of immortality and pitch the world into chaos. And yes, going to my friends' enemy is wrong, but I'll stop at nothing to save her.

Even if it means she dies at my hands.

Tonya's Review

5 Stars

OMG!  I don't even know where to start with this review.  I did do a complete re-read of the series before reading this one.  And I'm so glad that I did.  It made me realize why I love all of these characters, and the mastermind (RVD) behind them.

This is a series that I could read, read, and read again.  It really needs to be made into a TV show.  

The way that Rachel weaves her stories is unapparelled.  She brings everything from Gods and Goddesses, Sirens, Werewolves, Demons and Angels, Egyptian Gods.  You will get it all with this.  

It will have you laughing and so worried that you don't want to flip the pages.  But you have to because you have to know what will happen next. 

This is Horus and Kit's story.  

If you know Egyptian mythology, you know about Horus.  

Kit is a kitsune.  A fox.  But she is lost and lonely with no memories.  

I don't want to say much about the story.  We do get quiet a few surprises and twists along the way.  I would hate to ruin that for anyone. 

You will love the characters and the story, trust me!

This is one of my top reads for the year!  And what a fantastic read to end the year on!

4 Stars

This is the 12th book in the Until Him/Her series.  This is the second generation.

If you've read the original Until series, Willow is Nico's daughter.

Clay came to Willow's rescue right from the first meeting.  Because of the way they met, I honestly thought this was going to go a whole other direction than it did.

I liked all characters.  I'm exited for the new series with Clay's brothers because this story set all of them up for their own stories.

Tucker was a jerk, but he can be easily redeemed.

This was a good story.

5 Stars

This is such a great read.  It's awesome seeing everyone so far ahead in the future.

I feel for Posey.  I have a strong-willed 13 year old demon girl in my house also.  

This does set up Rylan and Callista's story.  I'm bummed we won't get it until May though.  Oh well, it's worth the wait! 

Marla is so sneaky.  I love it!

I loved the updates for everyone.  They each got at least one chapter.

This is such a great little Christmas read.

   Blurb:   

  She wants forever. He plays it day by day. They’re both wishing for the best in USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke’s charming and sexy hopefully-ever-after romance.   Single mom Palmer Clark will not be sidelined by the new man in town. Sure, the honey-tongued baseball legend is gorgeous, loves puppies, and has charmed his way into the community’s heart, but Palmer craves stability. Nothing about Cole says forever. So why is he so hard to resist?   Cole is swinging through town to visit his parents when he meets the kind of down-to-earth distraction he’s been looking for since retiring from the majors. True, his long-term relationship score is zero. But even though raising his average with Palmer seems impossible, it’s worth a shot.   As promising as the summer nights are, fate turns small-town dreams upside down, and some lessons are learned the hard way. But having faith in love and choosing hope over fear might get Palmer and Cole to the sweet spot they’re looking for.         

Tonya's Review

5 Stars

This is such a great, sweet and heartbreaking read.  The characters are perfect.  I loved them right from the very first page.

Palmer is an amazing single mom.  Everything she does is for Ethan.

She does so much for everyone she knows.  But she does it all on her own.  She doesn't ask for help.

Cole is a retired baseball player.  He is exactly what she needs.  She just doesn't know it yet.  

He has something weighing him down though.  He doesn't want to be a burden to anyone, especially Palmer.

These two learn what love truly is.

"Maybe it's not baseball.  Maybe...maybe it's what baseball will lead you to."

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEW** Single And Ready to Jingle by Piper Rayne

 

Single and Ready to Jingle by Piper Rayne is now live!

 

The girl who loves Christmas falls for the Grinch—it's a Christmas miracle.


What started as a dumpster fire of a blind date turns into a deal.


In truth, it probably didn't help that I showed up dressed like an elf but that's a story for another time. Our start was rocky at best which is why it's so frustrating that I can't stop thinking about his sexy British accent. Or the way his chest and arms fill out his suit. Or his perfect hair with that single streak of grey at the front.


Santa likes lists and so do I, so here's all the reasons why Andrew and I aren't right for each other:


He's my brother's best friend

He's the biggest grump I've ever met.

He hates Christmas.


That last one is big for a girl like me who thinks that the entire month of December should be a national holiday. So, when he calls for my help in planning his firm's holiday party, I can't pass up the opportunity to grow my small business. Bonus, we make a deal, and he agrees to attend three holiday events with me so I can make him fall in love with Christmas. As if I'd pass up an opportunity to make a Grinch's heart grow three times its size.


It isn't long until I discover Andrew has a very real reason to hate Christmas and I start to see him in a different light. That's when the Christmas miracle begins.

 Tonya's Review

5 Stars

This is a great Christmas time stand alone.

The girl that absolutely loves Christmas and the guy that is a Grinch and hates it.  Plus it's a best friend's little sister trope.  With all of that, this makes for a great story!

The first meeting between Kenzie and Andrew was so funny.  He was a jerk though.

Kenzie is a happy and bubbly type of person.

Andrew is the serious type.

Thank God opposites do attract.

But they both learn from each other and grow because of it.

This is a great read and we get to see a glimpse of the Mancino brothers and families!
