Review


Y'all already know the Caldo's are my favorite part of the family, any story that gives me a glance of James & Izzy jumps to the top of my favorites list immediately so their baby boys story was sure to make me a happy girl.
Carmello's story was one I'd been waiting for and it was worth the wait.
Trauma as a young adult made him the man he is, or should I say man whore he is, until reality hits him and he realizes he wants and needs more in his life. How to change his behavior and thought process is the problem.
Lucky for him he has a huge family and Lily is more than happy to help reform him and she knows the perfect person to help.
Arlo isn't the type of girl Carmello goes after, yes she's beautiful but she's not a one an done kind of girl so she's perfect for him to devote a month of dating to to work on his relationship skills.
She has her own trauma, but she chose to go about dealing with hers in the complete opposite way Mello does. She's a quiet bookworm with a good head on her shoulders. She knows what she wants and she won't settle for less.
She agrees to the 30 day challenge, not that spending time with the sexy man who saved her is a hardship. All she has to do is take notes, report back to Lily and don't sleep with him.
Easy enough.
Until it isn't.

I loved these two so much. As much as I hate the idea of the typical woman reforms bad boy this was not the typical. It was Mello's idea so it wasn't a woman changing his as much as he wanted to change and she made him want to be a better man.
Their story is a bit sweet and ofcourse full of Gallo's, it's a must read.

EXCERPT

“I’ve never claimed to be a saint, but you, il mio peccato (my sin), will destroy me,” I rasp into her ear. She wiggles under me, making those beautiful moaning sounds only I get to hear. The room is lit enough I can almost make out the smile on her lips.
The party echoes around us, and I wish I could kiss her in public. I wish she wasn’t planning on marrying someone who wasn’t me. Twisting her hair around my hand, I yank it toward me while biting down on her neck. The desire to mark what’s mine is strong, with the need for people to question who she was with. Even when I know it could get us both killed.

A Brit Player by Brenda St John Brown

 




Title: A Brit Player
Series: Castle Calder #4
Author: Brenda St John Brown
Genre: Second Chance Sports Romance
Release Date: June 23, 2021


BLURB

Whoever said taking a second chance on your first love was a good idea obviously had nothing to hide…

They say the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else. But shagging a guy with a “Bad Decision” tattoo is never a good idea. It’s a warning label. Trust me.

So when a friend coerces me into taking part in a charity dating auction, I jump at the chance to leave London - and my bad decisions - behind for a weekend.

But Max Foster is there and he’s bidding on me like it’s his job. Max isn’t just a guy. He’s THE GUY - my first love who I haven’t seen since the day he left high school to go play professional football in Spain.

I shouldn’t see him again, never mind want to. Because letting him find out about the secret I’ve kept from him these past twelve years? That has “bad decision” written all over it.

**This book contains content that readers who have experienced loss of pregnancy may find upsetting.**

EXCERPT

I could never resist that bloody smile and it’s what gets me to glance up now. I immediately wish I didn’t because Max Foster is more handsome now than he was when we were sixteen. His skin is tan and golden, and his light brown hair has blonde streaks through it that make him look like a surfer dude. On anyone else I’d assume they were compliments of some serious salon time, but I know Max well enough to know that they’re one hundred percent natural. I also know Max well enough to know that the way he’s shoving his fingers through said hair means he’s not as unaffected by our unexpected meeting as his body language would have me believe.
Thank God.
The realization buoys me enough to slow my heart rate down to this side of frantic and I manage a nod, saying, “I’m sure he’ll appreciate that.”
“Are you going to introduce us to your friend, Tara?” Scarlett asks.
It’s a testament to Max Foster’s force field that I’ve completely forgotten Scarlett and what’s-her-name.
It’s also a testament to Max Foster’s force field that he extends his hand before I get a chance to speak and introduces himself to both Scarlett and Tilly, whose name comes back to me the minute she says it.
“You look familiar?” Scarlett says. “Do we know each other somehow?”
“I don’t think so,” Max says, though he peers at Scarlett more closely, like he’s trying to make sure. “Tara and I went to high                         school together back in the day.”
“Hmmm.” Scarlett’s brow furrows. “Well, Tara and I were in sixth form together back in the day. Were you…?”
“Max got recruited to play professional football in Spain right out of high school.” My words come out fast and flat.
“And Tara never forgave me for actually going.” Max’s smile is easy, but I know his deep brown eyes don’t miss my flinch at his words. Him going to Spain is the least of what I’ve held against him.
“Who do you play for now?” asks Tilly.
“I’m at Norcastle,” Max says.
“Oooh. Impressive, but that Champions League title is useless here. You’re in Manchester territory now,” Tilly says.
Max laughs and they joke back and forth, giving me a chance to observe him on the down low. Or at least I think it’s on the down low until he turns to me and says, “I can’t believe you’re here. We need to catch up. Are you free for dinner tonight?”
No. I definitely am not free. Even if I had an empty diary from now until 2050, I’m not free for dinner with Max Foster. But before I can reply, Scarlett interjects, “Tara’s actually one of the dates in today’s auction, so she’s probably booked tonight unless you want to pay to play.”
I turn to Scarlett, eyes wide. “I don’t think Max is here to bid.”
“On the contrary. I think I just became a lot more likely to bid,” Max says with a grin. “It’s all for a good cause, right?”
“Well, there you go. A little motivation is good for everyone.” Scarlett gives a little grin. “It is for a very good cause. Save the Family provides accommodations to families who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. They also provide counseling and mentoring services. A lot of the families involved would either have their children taken into care or be                           living on the street full stop.”
I steal a glance at Max and he’s nodding in agreement as he asks, “Is it a local organization? Or do they work nationally, as well?”
“It’s based in Windermere. My mum has been involved with them for ages, which is why we’re hosting the auction.” Scarlett looks around, holding her hands out like Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music. “You’ve got to admit, it’s an ace venue.”
“It is, indeed.” Max smiles back at Scarlett and then nods. “I should probably go check on Harris to make sure he’s not got cold feet. I’ll see you out there, T.”
Then he walks away like the last time we saw each other wasn’t twelve years ago.
I turn to Scarlett and hiss, “What are you doing? I don’t want him to bid on me.”
“Uh, no kidding?” says Scarlett, her voice low. “But based on the way your tongue was hanging out of your mouth when you looked at him, that’s exactly why he should.”
“My tongue was not hanging out of my mouth.” Was it? Fucking hell, it could have been. It always did where Max was concerned.
“What’s the deal with you two, anyway?” Scarlett says as she waves at Bradley and turns toward our front-row seats.
“Right?” adds Tilly. “The way you were looking at him…”
“You dated Tom for over a year and I never saw you look at him that way,” Scarlett says, raising an eyebrow. “Just saying.”
That’s because I never looked at Tom that way. I’ve never looked at anyone that way except Max Foster.
If I can help it, I’ll never look at anyone that way again.
Especially Max Foster.

BLURB

Oops. He did it again.
Elliot Hansen has a terrible habit of falling in love with every man he dates.
His friends have had enough and make a list of Elliot’s perfect man.
That V…
Those abs....

He can’t face another risk to his heart.

Why not enjoy each other with no strings attached? Win and Elliot decide to make their own list.

Rule #2: No doing anything stupid like falling in love.

EXCERPT

Elliot groaned in the darkness. “Oh my God, I can’t believe I ate all those. It’s your fault.”
“Mmhmm.” Win licked his fingers. “Guilty as charged. Whatcha gonna do about it?”
“If I could move, I’d show you. But I think I gained ten pounds since this morning—I can barely walk.”
“Poor baby. Does that mean I get to tuck you into my bed tonight and have my wicked way with you?”
Their eyes met across the dancing flames from the fire pit, and Elliot’s belly tightened in response to the rising heat and desire reflected in Win’s eyes.
“Is that what you want?” He licked his lips of sticky sweetness.
“I want you.”
“Then we’re on the same page.”
Win doused the fire, and hand in hand, they crossed the yard to the house. On the rear porch, Win stopped and framed Elliot’s face between his hands.
“I don’t want to lead you on. We’re here to enjoy each other, as long as it lasts, right?”
The faint hope that their fun afternoon would’ve miraculously changed Win’s mind, and that he’d want a relationship, faded. Elliot couldn’t be upset—Win had been nothing but up-front with him, and Elliot could walk away, knowing they’d still be friends.
If he were smart, that was what he’d do. But he’d never been smart about men.
Besides, if he left now, he’d never know what being with Win was like. That afternoon’s taste wasn’t enough. He wanted more, and by “more,” he didn’t mean everything; he didn’t mean love and commitment. If he said no, Win would kiss him good-bye and find someone else, because men like Win weren’t alone for long. Elliot would see him and the next man together, knowing it could’ve been him kissing Win, touching him, and he didn’t want that. This time he would go into it with eyes wide open. No free-falling into love. He wanted this night with Win more than anything. He could do this. He would do it.
“That’s right,” he replied, and the relief on Win’s face hurt more than he’d imagined, but Elliot mustered a smile. “Friends having fun together.”
