Book Nerds review of Blue Notes, by Carrie Lofty

Blue Notes, by award winning author Carrie Lofty. A wonderful love story! Our main character is an unbelievably talented pianist. She was born Rosie Nyman, and came from a terrible childhood, with horrifying parents. As a child, she was subjected to so much negativity and darkness. She eventually was placed into the foster system, but managed to be one of the very few to luck out with amazing foster parents, who she later feels more connected to than she ever did her biological parents. In an effort to leave the past behind, she went so far as to change her name to Keeley. Despite her terrifying past, Keeley ends up moving forward with life (or trying to) and attends college at Tulane, where she excels as a pianist, pouring her heart and soul into her music. After eavesdropping on her practicing one day, Keeley meets the beautiful, brooding Jude, who happens to be New Orleans royalty. However, Keeley has no idea who he is, and brushes him off as she (quite literally) sprints away from him. Not long after, they meet again at a local club, where Jude dares Keeley to push her boundaries and her comfort level. Keeley rises to the challenge, making it a night she will never forget. Eventually Keeley finds out who Jude is, billionaire playboy whose parents died tragically, leaving him to run a massive corporation at such a young age. Jude consistently pushes Keeley and opens her up in ways she has never experienced before. All the while, Keeley struggles to hide her jaded past from Jude. When Keeley’s past catches up with her and she’s exposed as her original self, Rosie Nyman, will what these two lovers share be able to withstand the frenzy that follows?

Book Nerds review of Take Me For Granted, by KA Linde

Take Me For Granted, by KA Linde. GREAT READ! If you love seeing a bad boy rock star womanizer fall hard for a nice, classy, good girl – then this is the book for you! Bad boy Grant is a local rock star, who is headed for the big time with his band, who go by the name ContraBand. Grant is accustomed to having any female he’d like, partying hard, and having absolutely no attachments. He doesn’t do feelings. But when he first meets Aribel, he’s momentarily caught off guard by her immediate rejection. This doesn’t deter him, however. What started as a simple conquest developed into a burning need. Aribel flips Grants world upside down. Likewise, Grant opens Aribel’s eyes up to a world that had previously been passing her by. The two of them are so unbelievably different, and the proof of that is in their clashing opinions and witty arguments. Can they each give a little of themselves to each other, in a way that neither of them have ever done before? You’ll have to read the book to find out. This was such a fun read. Definitely recommend!

Book Nerds Review of Knockout, by JC Valentine

Knockout by JC Valentine is book 1 of the Wayward Fighters novels. Let me start out by saying that right now, I have a tiny obsession with MMA fighters, and I’ve read a few books now where the male character was a fighter. However, Jami “The Judge” Weston, may just take the cake. Warning: Jami will invoke drooling, swooning, and sighing. He may also piss you off. Oh, but he’s so worth it. Ally comes from a family where spousal abuse was a regular occurrence. Back then, as a young boy, Jami was her protector, her savior, her light. The books begins with Ally and Jami being reunited after years and years. Jami doesn’t know who she is at first, but that doesn’t last long. For Ally, who never stopped loving Jami, she feels as if she’s finally gotten a missing piece of herself back now that Jami is a part of her life again. But does she really? Jami makes it very clear that he is not looking for anything more than a physical relationship with her. He doesn’t have room for the distraction that a deeper relationship would bring with it. Can Ally handle something like that?
