Code Name: Ghost

Code Name: Ghost (Jameson Force Security, Book #5) Sawyer Bennett Release Date: June 30, 2020



I knew the risks of this job when I signed on with Jameson Force Security. Knew my time as a marine would prepare me for the danger I would face. But no amount of training could have ever prepared me for the helplessness of watching my teammates die, the agonizing mental and physical pain of torture, or the despair of captivity.

Returning home to Pittsburgh following a mission gone wrong, I am riddled with guilt and haunted by nightmares. I spend my days trying to regain the parts of myself I lost in that desert, the pieces that made me the Malik Fournier I once was. While the physical effects of my torture are fading, the emotional ones are proving much more stubborn and I find solace from the last person I should ever seek such comfort.

Anna Tate lost even more than I did in that mission. Now a widow and a single mom to the daughter she gave birth to shortly after her husband’s death, Anna offers me comfort I don’t deserve. As my feelings for Anna grow, I worry that once she learns the truth about what happened, she’ll turn her back on me. I pull her to me just as tightly as I push her away. Hoping this forbidden love will save me from the ghost I’ve become.

I've been DYING for this book. I've heard so many things about Malik and what happen to him so I was dying to get his book after finding out he had been found. Sometimes we didn't know if we would get to see him or know more about him. Malik hasn't had it easy over the last 5 months being captive he didn't know what was goin to happen to him if life was goin to end or if he was goin to get another chance. My heart broke for him he is such a great guy and the guilt he carried for Sal and Jimmy was hard for him. Even though there wasn't anything he could do the guilt was just to strong. Now being back and at Jameson he needed his life back and he would prove he could be the guy he once was. But there is one thing that's changed and that's Anna. She is now working for Jameson and her life isn't the same her husband is died and she has a beautiful baby girl. But know Malik was seeing her different and he found this very hard to deal with.

Anna what can I say about her she is an amazing woman. She is so strong and independent and I don't know how. Life hasnt been good losing Jimmy wasn't easy she was pregnant and he was everything they weren't married long they had plans she never thought she would be a single mother so young. No matter what was thrown at her she came back fighting Avery was her life and she would do whatever she could to make there life easy. That was until Malik came back with all his gorgeousness. She never thought she would look at someone else like that never mind someone that was once close to Jimmy.

This book was so good I luvd the story. Malik and Anna so deserved a second chance in life and together they just made the perfect couple. The way she was with both Anna and Avery just melted my heart. Anna need someone to take care of her even though she was independent and wanted to do everything for herself Malik made her see that she did need help and it was ok to get some. I just luv them. I would highly recommend this book everything about was great if you don't fall I'm luv with Malik and Anna there is something wrong. I now need Cage's book omg I need this book so much after the side story in this bring it on.


I'm not going to lie, I was a little nervous about this book because of the whole teammates-widow thing but I was also super excited to get Malik's story. So I dove right into this one with high expectations and I was definitely not disappointed. This book had all the feels and it captivated me from the very start. Anna and Malik were so good together and they worked so hard to actually make their relationship work which made me love them even more.

Their connection was so evident but for obvious reasons they were hesitant to start anything and I actually really liked that they had a lot of discussions about what they were doing before anything went too far. Bottom line, this was a brilliant story and one I definitely recommend reading.

Dead Pretty


I'd once believed that nothing would equal the pain of losing my parents.
I was wrong.
I had barely even begun to process their deaths when it started.
The love notes, flowers, gifts … all anonymously left on my porch.
Then, I opened my door to a dead bird.
At first, I thought it had died naturally.
I knew that wasn’t the case when I found my neighbor’s cat the next day.
Then, the murders started.
The victims … women who looked eerily similar to me.
I had a stalker. A murderous one.
And I had no clue who he was.
He never showed me his face.
Not even when he carved his final message into me.
I survived that night. But my life was over. It had ended the moment Tobias Ripley’s infatuation with me began.
So, I changed my name and moved away.
Now, I live a life of solitude. I don’t make connections with anyone.
Until Jack Canti walks into my life with his sharp eyes and easy smiles.
Only Jack isn’t the man he says he is.
And when the murders start again, I’m left wondering if it’s a copycat.
Or worse …
What if Tobias wasn’t the real killer after all … and the murderer has been right here with me all along?



A- MAZ- ING !!!

Omg what have I just read. This book is just amazing the story sucked me in I couldn't put it down. I've not read anything like this book in a long time. It's very different to what this authors normally does and I know it was hard for her but you wouldn't think it was. This just shows that she can do anything and do it damn well. The story flowed so well it kept me on the edge of my seat from the start to the end. You can't help but want to know more about Audrey and what she has been through.

Then there is Jack omg this guy is amazing hot and so so sexy. The chemistry between him and Audrey is crazy hot no matter how hard she tries to fight it she just couldn't. The pull was to strong.

I can't recommend this book enough. The story is hot, suspenseful, exciting and totally shocking. The twist WOW I didn't see it coming at all it's crazy, shocking and so so smart. If you want something different give this a go you will not regret it. This is my favorite book of the year!!

Series: Promise Me #1
Author: Carrie Ann Ryan
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 23, 2020

Blurb

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Carrie Ann Ryan comes a sexy new contemporary stand-alone series.

Hazel Noble has survived horrors she wouldn’t inflict on her worst enemy. Since then, she’s healed, found herself, and connected with a group of women she’s proud to call her friends. However, when they make a pact to start looking for love, Hazel finds herself not only up first but also forced to face a past she thought she’d escaped.

Cross Brady has no need for a relationship. As the oldest of five, he’s always been the one his family can rely on. Now, all he wants is to work in peace and live his life. His priorities shift dramatically, though, when Cross finds himself in Hazel’s path.

Though the two initially fight their connection, they soon learn that it’s safer to fall for each other than keep running from what’s holding them back—not to mention, who wants them dead.

Forever Only Once is the start to Carrie Ann Ryan's new series, Promise Me, though the hero may be familiar to you if you've read Wrapped in Ink. Cross Brady is the oldest of his siblings and has always felt like he needed to be their protector, but that kept his social life lacking when he was too busy worrying about his siblings to date. Hazel Noble is trying to move on from the horrors in her past but isn't sure she should put her trust in the gruff yet incredibly sexy man she met by complete accident. Their chemistry is off the charts though and neither can deny how much they like each other.

This book had it all, the romance, the suspense, the close family connections, and the hot bearded man. Everything I could ask for and why I love this author so much. She's one of my favorite authors when I'm looking for those characters that are close to their family or friends and the Brady family is my newest obsession. I can't wait to see what else will come from this family but I know it's going to be something amazing.

It's been way too long since I've read a book from Lila Rose but this was a brilliant story to jump back into her writing with. Lucas was so easy to like and I loved all his quirkiness and shyness. It made him an adorable character to get to know and the perfect match for Wreck who was his complete opposite. 

Wreck was confident, even when it came to his new feelings for a man, and I loved that he pushed forward and didn't run away from them. It made the sexual tension between him and Lucas so captivating and when there were moments where Wreck would get jealous it was even better. 

Bottom line, this was an amazing story and officially one of my favorites from Ms. Rose. I can't wait to see what else will come from this series and characters that I've already fallen in love with.

Excerpt

The front door opened abruptly behind me. I bit my bottom lip to keep in the scream. But that didn’t stop me from jumping and stumbling as I turned, and if it wasn’t for Death’s hand wrapping around my arm, I would have met the floor once more that night.
However, when I looked up, I realized there was still a possibility of dropping to the floor. The most gorgeous man I had ever seen stood just inside the doorway, scanning the room. If it wasn’t for his hands fisted at his sides and the scowl on his face, I may have fallen to the floor in awe of his beauty.
I took another quick glance around the room and noticed my brother did, in fact, have some good-looking friends. All of them could be on the cover of a magazine. I wasn’t sure what it was about the scowling man that set me off in a sweating, peeing-my-pants, “holy crap he’s looking at me” moment with my pulse racing, but he did. His dark brown hair was shaved at the sides, and the top was longish and messy, some of it flopped in his dark green eyes. He would probably punch me if I tried to push his hair back though. He was tall, my short frame only reaching his shoulders. His tight black tee showed off the muscles in his arms, and his dark ripped jeans surrounded thick thighs.
I jolted and pulled my gaze up quickly when Death said, “Wreck, you took forever, fucker. Get in here and meet Saint’s brother, Lucas.”
Saint?
Who was Saint?
I wasn’t a brother of Saint.
“Lucas, I’m Saint. It’s my club name,” Zion called; he must have seen the confused look on my face.
Nodding, I glanced back to Wreck and did a lame wave before I grabbed my own arm with my other hand. “Ah, s’up.”
S’up?
Was I a gangster now?

“ “AL Jackson at her best. She’s a wordsmith. A magnificent storyteller. A poet and a romantic. Mix all of this with some page-turning suspense, and a climactic ending, in more ways than one, and you’ve got yet another must-read.””
-USA Today bestelling author Lauren Rowe
"All you need to know is this is a must read. I loved it 1,000 times.”
-Books and Prime

DETAILS: 
TITLE: CATCH ME WHEN I FALL

Synopsis
A Falling Stars STAND-ALONE NOVEL from NYT & USA Today Bestselling Author, A.L. Jackson . . .

Sometimes trying to catch a star will light your whole world on fire…

Emily’s entire existence was wrapped up in touring with her country-rock band Carolina George.

What she never expected was to spend a passionate night with a gorgeous, tattooed stranger.

Their chemistry was combustible.
Their attraction irresistible.

It was never supposed to follow her into the light of day.
  
Royce’s night with the lead singer of Carolina George was the worst mistake of his life. He needs the band to sign on to his record label or his family will pay the price.

He knows falling for her will threaten his carefully laid plans.

Royce’s past is littered with mistakes and heartache—will he overcome or will his love for Emily just be one more tragedy…

Audible


This story sucked me and played with every single one of my emotions. Royce and Emily both had so much story to tell and they were both hurt in the past, a hurt that was still haunting them and made my heart hurt for them also. I loved getting to see how they came together with some crazy explosive chemistry despite everything that was holding them back.

This story was actually pretty suspenseful and we were left in the dark when it came to these characters' pasts which I very much enjoyed. It's what had me the most captivated and I really liked how that mystery part of the story played out.

My only complaint is that after such a slow and suspenseful build up, the ending seemed too rushed and I think there needed to be more of an in depth ending, especially when it came to Royce. Overall though, I still loved this book and it was a fun read even when it was being more mysterious.
