Review: The Suite Secret by Tierney Page

The Suite Secret

Tierney Page

London Hearts Series, Book 2

432 pages, Paperback

Published January 13, 2026

With globe-trotting glamour, sizzling banter and a fast-paced forbidden-lovers story, this seductive second book in the London Hearts series is perfect for fans of Ana Huang and Lauren Asher.

What happens when temptation doesn’t check out?

Gemma’s got it all figured out: amazing best friends April and Anna, a high-flying job, and a dating life that’s strictly no-strings-attached. Men fall at her feet – and she walks away from them without a backwards glance.

Max is a jet-setter with zero interest in settling down. Between London and New York City, he’s in a position of power working at a luxury hotelier. But when he meets Gemma in a high-stakes hotel pitch, their chemistry is instant, electric…and completely off limits. Why? Because Max is her best-friend Anna’s brother. And Anna has just one rule: don’t even think about her brother.

But the danger zone is Gemma’s favorite place to be. And some temptations are worth checking in for…

If you’re looking for a book that will make you laugh, but also has the pages heating up, look no further. Tierney Page delivers just that with the second book in her London Hearts Series The Suite Secret.

The Suite Secret follows Gemma and Max, two people who are very career oriented and very good at what they do, but neither one of them are looking for love. They both kind of have this philosophy of when at work they work and when it’s time to play, they play hard. Little did they know that their business relationship would soon get tangled with their playtime relationship. This is one of those relationships that has all of those forbidden checkmarks next to it. There’s an age gap, he’s her best friend’s brother and their coworkers. However, that funny and fickle thing that we know as fate tends to have her own way of doing things even if it’s the last thing someone is looking for.

I personally think that Miss Tierney Page wrote a banger of a book. Gemma is one of those characters that you may not like it the beginning but when all of a sudden done, she was actually pretty awesome. She was truthful to herself and had confidence for days. She even owned her insecurities.
She’s one of those girls that knows how to get the work done but also lives for the party. Max, in many ways, had a parallel story to Gemma but different. Somehow, they fit perfectly together. The scene with them in the rain, oh my God, that was probably one of my favorites as a book.

The Suite Secret is a workplace, age gap, best friend brother, laugh out loud with heat and heart type of read. I was barely through the first chapter when the laughter began. I discovered Tierney while scrolling one endless night. Her book recommendations and the way she passionately spoke about books. I knew this is someone I could be friends with. When I saw that she had written a romance, I knew I had to give it a try. I am so very glad I did. She delivered an entertaining romance that checked all the boxes. She may still be finding her reading voice, but I will be honest. I am expecting things from Tierney Page!

 

Review: Sinful King by Natalie Kane

Sinful King 

Natalie Kane

Kings of Vegas Series, Book 1

396 pages, Kindle Edition

Expected publication January 8, 2026

From NATALIE KANE, comes an all-new world with Sinful King, an age-gap, obsessed-hero, Mafia romance!

Eloise

I ran away from one organized crime household and found myself tripping right into another one. My father, the head of the Italian Mafia, is a bad man. He wants to marry me off to some creep I don’t know, but rather than succumb to that nightmare, I fled to Vegas, hoping to find a job and blend in. In the first week, I’ve been stolen from and beat up, and I have no money to my name, but I find a job as a bartender at RAPTURE, an upscale—okay, super bougie—adult club just off the Strip. I can’t believe my luck. I love this job, and I’m intrigued by the mysterious tattooed man with ice-blue eyes who always seems to be pinned to me. Things are looking up.

Until my father’s men find me.

Rome

I’m a ruthless, hard, dangerous man who takes care of his men and employees, and I run the city of Vegas with my brothers. That’s all I need. Until a gorgeous, raven-haired beauty comes walking into my club and sets my soul on fire.

I’m obsessed with her. Consumed by her. I need her in a way that I’ve never needed anyone or anything before, aside from the power and control that I’ve worked so hard for. She doesn’t know it, but I own the club that employs her, and I follow her back to the seedy motel she’s living in after her shift to make sure she’s safe. She’s mine.

Suddenly, someone is out to hurt my Firefly, and that means that they’ll meet a painful, bloody end. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. To keep her with me.

Forever.

5 Stars

Rome is a king. Well, one of the four kings that run Las Vegas. He is the true definition of a crime boss. He’s ruthless, dark and sinister. He is not the man you want to cross, betray or even slightly lie to. His moral compass goes every which way, but north. Even the strongest of men fear him. He’s also the owner of an adult club. When an unknown woman randomly walks into his club, looking for a job, his life changes before his eyes. Laying eyes on her via a computer monitor, Rome knew she was his. He will have her, and make her his

Eloise is no stranger to the dark happenings within the mob world. Being the daughter of a Don, she has seen more violence than some of them, men of her world. Being the daughter of a high up crime, lord, you would think she would be spoiled. Eloise has not lived the princess life, but yet endured terrible harm both mentally and physically from the one man in the world that should have loved her. She’s been hurt many times, but she’s much tougher than most people give her credit for.
Her world changes when her father summons her to inform her that he is marrying her off and she doesn’t have a choice. She knows her father will give her away without batting his eye, and her only chance of survival is if she leaves right now.

Rome and Eloise are phenomenal. Rome is obsessed with Eloise from the moment he first see. He didn’t even have to be in the same room with her to feel his connection to her. Is as rough and scary as they come. He is definitely one of those touch her and you’re done kind of guys. Eloise was never a pampered princess, but a woman who had to watch out for herself from a very young age enduring mental and physical abuse. She definitely has some PTSD going on and the way Rome protects her and cares for her is so swoony, my heart go pitter patter. Think above and beyond, next level type of caring. I was very fortunate to get an advanced listening, copy and let me tell you I listened from beginning to end, not pausing for anything.

Narrators Teddy Hamilton and Avery Caris truly bring the story to life. It was more than a narration of a story. It was a spectacular performance from beginning to end.

Mafia romance is one of my guilty pleasures. There is something about the dark and twisted worlds that I just gravitate to and fall for all the time. Sinful King gave me all I needed and more. Natalie Kane, the after dark, alter ego of Kristin Proby- out of the gate, the first book of the series is a five star read. Period. I was truly excited for this book and after listening was even more than what I expected it to be. I truly cannot wait to see what we will be getting with future installments of the Kings of Vegas series.

Review: We Are Yours by M. Robinson

We Are Yours

M. Robinson

We Are Yours Book 1 

440 pages, Kindle Edition

Published November 26, 2025

From Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author M. Robinson comes an angsty, forced proximity love triangle where secrets test brotherly bonds and music brings them together, only to have destiny threaten to tear them apart.

I’ve loved two men in all my life.

Two extremely different men.

Where Julius and I blossomed from a loving friendship, Kraven and I stemmed from nothing

but hatred. A very thin line exists between love and hate, and I crossed it with both.

I fell in love with each of them at different times, in different ways, and with different words

and actions. Cause and effect has always been our problem.

This isn’t just a love triangle between the two men I love.

It’s worse.

Because misery is the only certainty when you”re in love with two brothers.

And now I’m faced with the impossible choice. Though nothing could’ve prepared me for the devastation when they both declared, “We are yours.”

Then, all in one breath, they begged…

“Now… say you’re mine.”

 

4 Stars

Looking for an angsty, love triangle? Well, my reading friends look no further. Author M. Robinson delivers just that with the raw and emotional We Are Yours.

I’m gonna try to do this without giving away any of the story, considering this is the first book of a duet. I know that sometimes it is easier said than done, but I’m gonna try and focus on my feelings towards the book as opposed to what’s happening in the book.

First of all, we definitely get all the fields. If you do not like angst in your romances, this one might not be for you. However, if you do, grab your box of tissues, get a drink and settle in. This is a story of three people who have already been dealt a pretty bad hand. Each carrying emotional baggage that affects them. A story of when no one else was there for them. They had music. Music as an escape. There is a fine line between love and hate, and the Author very much puts us right in the center of it.

I felt, I cried. The betrayal and the passion bleed through the pages that you can’t help but feeling everything the story has to offer. I have to say this is a very intense story and we do have debt cliffhanger at the end, but it is well worth it. And I can’t wait to see what happens next.

 

Review: When We Breathe by Kristen Proby

When We Breathe

Kristen Proby

The Blackwells of Montana Series, Book 4.5

192 pages, Kindle Edition

Published November 6, 2025

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes When We Breathe, a small-town, mmf Why Choose romance set in Bitterroot Valley!

Alex

I met Adam and Gabe the old-fashioned way: in a bar. That is, if old-fashioned means that I met a couple of men already in a committed, loving relationship, and they took me home for a night of debauchery and fun, then yeah. That.

It’s just supposed to be one night. I don’t want to be the third wheel or put any kind of a wrench in their love story. These two guys are perfect together. Gabe is the laid-back, easygoing auto mechanic with muscles for freaking days. Adam isn’t lacking in the muscle department either, honestly, but he’s more intense, a little more bruised from a shaky past.

Like me.

I find myself craving their attention all the time. And they don’t seem to want to let me go. What started as one night has turned into something so much … more. I’m a girl who thought she wasn’t lovable, and instead, these two men are proving to me that the three of us could have something really special.

But it’s hard for me to trust, and letting go of the last of my independence may be where I draw the line. Will these men let me walk away, or will they fight for us?

5 Stars

Hotter than a heat wave and sexy as sin. Break out those fans ladies, this one sets the pages on fire.

One night of fun that became so much more. Adam and Gabe are in a loving, fun and committed relationship. You can tell these two men completely adore one another. Adam is in finance and Gabe is a mechanic and you would think that each hung the moon for the other one. 

Alex is a journalist and carries a good bit of baggage. She had the worst kind of father a person could ever have, but through the love of her brother and sisters. She has become a resilient, strong and independent woman.

There are so many things about When We Breathe that I just love. For a short story, this one packs such an amazing tale of love.  Alex has her issues. She knows what her issues are. She owns them and she still holds her head high and does her best to make it through every day. She has commitment issues, but with her past, we can understand. Adam and Gabe are a force. Everything good that you would want in a man is embedded in these two men. The chemistry between the three of them together off the charts. This may be a very emotional story, but yet the heat and spice are off the charts. Kristen Proby has once again given us another story for us to get lost in.

Blake

I don’t do relationships, but I’m excellent at casual hookups. That’s not to say I’m a jerk. Not at all. I respect women—all women—and I know the value of love. But I’m married to my job as a physician. In fact, I’m married to the hospital, having a full-time affair with the clinic, and my family is my side piece. I don’t have time for a relationship with a woman.

But then the most beautiful human I’ve ever laid eyes on walks onto my plane, and my world tilts. Thanks to a Montana snowstorm, I spend one incredible night with Harper but wake up alone. She never told me her last name. She’s just … gone. It would figure that the one woman I could see myself breaking my own rules for is the one I can’t have.

Harper

It’s time for me to come home to Montana to help take care of my dad and pick up the slack for my siblings. I’ve been gone for a long time, but this beautiful corner of the world is my home. I’m excited to start my job as a NICU nurse at Bitterroot Valley General and begin a new chapter in my life. A fresh start. A clean slate.

Then he walks into the room, and it’s suddenly hard to breathe. Blake was the one-night stand who still haunts my dreams. The man can do things. Amazing things. But I never thought I’d see him again. Okay, that’s a lie. I knew he worked at this hospital, but he’s an ER doctor. I’m in a different department, so I planned to avoid him. Yet that didn’t last more than the first hour of my first shift.

Now, he’s pursuing me and saying things like forever. But with a past like mine, can I trust that he won’t tire of me and leave? Or is this finally my happily ever after?

 

 

5 Stars

 

Just when I think Kristen Proby cannot come up with another male lead that is going to make me go super swoony, she releases another book that tops the last one. Blake Blackwell is seriously my new book boyfriend and maybe the best fictional man ever written.

When You Blush is a small town, one night stand, forced proximity, he falls first type of romance story. Blake Blackwell admits he is married to his job. Being a doctor consumes almost all of this time and what spare time he does have he is dedicated to his family.

After a fantastic night together, she is gone when he wakes in the morning, yet Blake swears, he will never forget her.

Harper we’re returning to her adoptive family to help take care of the man who helped raise her. On a flight she meets a doctor, and they share an intense and scorching night together. They may have fallen asleep together, but as soon as Harper wakes, she is out the door. A few weeks later they come face-to-face while at work no less when all kinds of thoughts take over Harper’s head. Slowly, Harper learns that they truly are some good men left in this world.

Chemistry explodes from the get-go. Blake and Harper connect so naturally. Their attraction is undeniable. One night of passion made a lasting impression on both of them. In the not-too-distant future, the last place either one of them expected to run into each other would be at work. Both of them understand the nature of having a health field career and how important that job is. Blake is so patient and caring. Harper finds a confidence within herself just from Blake being the wonderful man that he is to her. There are two moments in this book that are so over the top in the best ways for me that truly has made my heart go pitter patter. It just goes to show that the little things truly do add up to big ones. Whether it be covering for a friend on the fly or a quick moment shared in the pouring rain. It’s undeniable that Kristen Proby knows how to make your heart swoon in all the best ways.

Endlessly Yours

Carrie Ann Ryan

The Wilder Brothers Series, Book 10

235 pages, Kindle Edition

First published July 21, 2025

 

Four years ago, I promised my dying wife that I’d do one thing: I’d move on.

And I knew as I took that oath, I would break it.

Then I saw Rory. The woman I’d met on one of my darkest nights, and the woman I can’t ignore. Our one night is a secret we swore we’d never tell.

When I see her, I see a glimpse of what could be in the fire in her eyes.

When she sees me, she sees the grumpy, annoying Wilder brother who could shatter her dreams and her heart.

With one stolen kiss, we both know we have a choice: to keep running or finally give in.

Only when she suddenly finds herself the guardian to her two nieces, the world crumbles around us once again. She needs to protect her family, and I know I can’t let her do it alone.

The pull between us refuses to go away, but now I’ll have to choose which promise to break. And if I’m strong enough to be the final Wilder to fall.

**Endlessly Yours is a single guardian, widow’s second chance, one night stand romance in the Wilder Brothers series featuring Brooks and Rory. Each one can be read as a complete standalone. A HEA is guaranteed!**

 

 

4.5 Stars

You might wanna grab the tissues for this one. EndlesyYours is not only the last book of The Wilder Series, but Carrie Ann Ryan does what she does best and gives us a highly emotional read. 

 

Brooks is a widower who lost his wife due to cancer. He made her promise that he would move on. When he made the promise, Brooks knew it was a lie because the love he had for her could never be replaced.  Ever since his law, Brooks has been the quiet one of the brothers. That is until a particular woman walks into his life and then he has two things, haunting him instead of just one.

 

Rory is an illustrator for books. She self-employed and quite good at what she does. She is also a good friend of the wilder women. Roy’s life too, has taken a turn for the worse because of a tragedy. Losing her sister, and her brother-in-law in an accident leaves her becoming the guardian of two young girls. It’s very easy to say her life has had a dress change. Little did you know that Brooks and the entire Wilder family would step up and come to help her in the most amazing way as possible.

 

Anyone who’s picked up a Carrie Ann Ryan book Will know she likes to send us on an emotional ride. Endlessly Yours was truly just that. I also believe she saved the best for last. Remember those tissues I was talking about. Yeah you truly just might need them. Brooks and Rory are both suffering from hurt and loss in deep ways. Their lives are an emotional roller coaster. The way that Brook steps up is so swoony, my goodness it made my heart go pitter patter. This is not just a story of love, or a second chance at love. It’s the story of healing from loss discovering you have more than what you think and becoming a family. What a high note to end this series on.

Age Gap, Billionaire, Best Friend’s Brother romance set in Bitterroot Valley!

Connor

After an explosive night together, I thought I’d never see the gorgeous bookstore owner again.
We didn’t exchange names and numbers, and when I left her asleep the following morning, I didn’t intend to pursue her. I don’t have time for relationships nor entanglements.

I’m the CEO of Gallagher Hotels, and my life is spent traveling around the world, focusing on my business, not a small town in Montana. Even if my thoughts keep returning to the most incredible woman I’ve ever met.

It turns out, my mystery woman, Billie, is my sister’s best friend, and she’s suddenly everywhere I turn. She’s become my obsession and all I think about. She’s become the only thing that means more to me than running my empire. And I’m determined to have her.

Billie

Owning a bookstore in my hometown of Bitterroot Valley has been my lifelong dream since I was a little girl. The only thing that brings me more joy is my love of thrift stores and coffee.

And, maybe, the sexy Irishman with intense emerald-colored eyes that take my breath away. His charming accent, how he looks at me, and the way he spoils me with lavish gifts are just the icing on the cake. I’ve tried to stay away from him, but my resolve is slipping. Nothing is better than being in Connor’s arms and feeling like I’m the most important woman in his world. But being with a high-profile billionaire comes with a price. Can we withstand the storm headed our way, or are we destined to fall apart like delicate blooms in the wind?

 

4.5 Stars

 

Every time I think Kristen Proby can’t come up with another male lead character that will  top the last one that she just wrote. However, within a few pages of.Where We Bloom i knew I was gonna have myself a new book boyfriend.

 

Connor is a corporate powerhouse. As CEO of Gallagher hotels the man has spent more of his adult life in motion and on the go, then he has staying still. His family’s brand of luxury hotels has a reputation and so does he. He’s broody and protective. He’s a man who knows how to get exactly what he wants and won’t stop until he has what it is that he wants. For the few people in this world that Connor truly cares about he would do anything in the world for, but if you’re on the other side of a business deal, you better watch out. Not to mention that sexy accent can just make you melt. 

 

Billie is the only girl of the Blackwell siblings. Growing up was four older brothers she knows how to stand her ground. She is a smart and savvy businesswoman. She knows how to take care of herself and won’t back down from anything. Her dream as a child was to have a bookstore in her hometown which she has achieved and loves. Her family is close to her and she has solid girlfriends. One night, a mysterious man with an amazing accent, walks into her world and completely shakes it up. Thinking it was a one night stand and a good memory to have. That is until she discovers that the mysterious man is one of her best friends, older brother.  

 

Where We Bloom was amazing from beginning to end. Connor and Billie come from two very different worlds. Their chemistry was explosive from the beginning, but yet the sexual tension between the two was like another heartbeat of the story. The two share a few very intense experiences that rock both are worlds off their axis. Each one shakes the other one up in so many different ways that they are not used to. Connor and Billie are both obsessed with their work and love what they do. They both soon learned that the intensity that they feel for their individual passions is it very similar to what the other one feels. Both being workaholics, both running a business and both extremely loyal to the ones they love. Connor and Billiesoon learn to navigate the waters around them and find something beautiful that blooms between them. We have an emotional, heartfelt, and so sweet of a love story. I thoroughly enjoyed Connor and Billie finding their way to one another.

I am a sucker for a good mafia romance. Always have been and always will be. Zara Cox definitely caught my attention with The Mastermind. 

 

We may start off a little bit on the slow side, but let me tell you, we definitely pick it up for a fast pace edge of your seat story.  Mafia meets Formula One racing. Not only are they rivals by their family names, they’re  arrivals on the track as well. Cesare Salvatore is a race car driver and the heir to his family legacy. Maddelena Mancinelli is the daughter Mancinelli family head and over sees the running of their racing team.

The addition of F1 racing almost made this book move at break next speed once we got going.  It’s a darker modern day inspired by Romeo and Juliet type of story that caught me off guard in the best possible way.
