Title: Desk Banger
Author: K.S. Rochell
Genre: Contemporary Office Romance
Release Date: July 29, 2020



Blurb

What happens when your boss catches you making scans of your butt instead of the case files he asked you for?

Any normal boss would fire you right on the spot before you can even explain yourself.
But mine asked to see the pictures in color.

Nicholas’s Brighton is one of the best attorneys of my generation.
Somehow though, he's more known for being New York's hottest bachelor.


Not like I have any time to drink in his features with all the work he's assigned me.
The man is such a mean and demanding jerk... but somehow that only makes him more irresistible.

If things keep going this way I'm not sure if he's either going to fire or f*ck me.
And I definitely know which one I'd prefer.

Amber passes the bar and starts working for Nicholas' law firm. At first it's all work and Amber already had a bit of a crush on Nicholas, but when she accidentally sees a bit more of Nicholas than she was expecting, that crush goes into full blown lust. Nicholas sees Amber and wants her just as much, but is it smart to get involved with someone that works for him?

I have waited for this story for months now, and in the end I found it just ok. Super short, with some drama, a few hot naughty bits, and an H that needed a throat punch. The ending and how Amber handled Nicholas is what bumped this up from 3 to 4 stars, good for her. I give this 4 stars.

The most difficult of life’s choices might be the one we make when we open our hearts to another.

Landon Reece is the ultimate Manhattan athlete. The elite goalie for the New York Metros is rich, handsome, generous, and purposely single. His life has been a whirlwind of fancy cars, beautiful people, museum galas, and championship rings. Landon now has one year left on his multi-million dollar contract, and the talk around town isn’t good. Despite carrying his team to the pinnacle of success, the aging goalie is hearing rumors that his contract might not be renewed next season. Hoping to curtail the rumors and show the Metros he still has what it takes, Landon and his agent set up a press tour to hopefully remind the fans—and Metros’ management—just how important Landon is to New York City.

During one of a hundred appearances on the tour, Landon finds himself a guest on the newest and hottest late night talk show in the Big Apple. There he meets Montrell Pittman, leader of the show’s band, A Brush of Blue, and his senses come alive. He resolves to do his best to woo the upbeat, sexy musician who ignites his blood like no other person ever has. As the two men grow closer, Landon’s ice time shows how happy his new romance is making him. Then a tragedy rocks his world, and Landon finds himself wallowing in despair and in danger of losing the man who might be the only one who can clear his blues away.

Excerpt

Chadwick:
“Evelyn?” I probe, still seated, my fingers steepled at my chin.

“Eve, please call me Eve.”

“Oh, great. Since we’re picking names and titles, please call me Sir.” My words are smooth, yet with the dip in my timbre, I come across more demanding. And let’s face it—I am fucking demanding.

Her eyebrow hitches, and the green sparkles playing against her almost chocolate eyes reel me into her mind. Grabbing a stray strand of her slightly curled honey brown hair must give her that second she needs to bring her mind to the present. “Um, excuse me?” she asks, still standing, her tits about to fall out of the too small dress that shows every luscious curve of her body.

“Sir. To everyone here who works for me, they all need to call me Sir. It’s not negotiable, Evelyn.”

“Okay…” Her tone is almost a question, but her thought process continues, and I see it in her eyes. “Sir, but please call me Eve.”

“Oh, Evelyn, dear. I call people whatever the fuck I choose to call them.” My McKenna from earlier is still on my desk. When I grab it, I tip it toward me and take a long sip, never taking my gaze off her. She wiggles under my stare, and I internally chuckle.

“Sir?” Now her voice is the all-too-telling sass women try to pull with me.

“Yes, Evelyn.”

“Why am I here?” Her hands are on her hips, and it’s appropriate with the rise of pitch in her tone.

“Evelyn, you mean, why am I here, Sir?” I correct her.

A small smirk creeps onto her face. “Um, yes, that’s right.” Her sarcasm isn’t lost on me. “Why am I here, Sir?”

“Well, Evelyn, if you want a job with me, your cute-ass attitude better disappear, you understand? Now, take that cute ass of yours”—I point at the chair in front of my desk—“that’s too fucking sassy at this point, and let’s chat. I understand you’re down on your luck, and I have an offer for you.”

Review by: Jennifer
(4 Stars)

Eve's life has pretty much been crap for as long as she can remember; her drunk father cared more about getting booze than keeping them with a roof over their head and that wasn't really the worst part. She has no faith or trust in anyone but herself and now after yet another run in with her father, Eve is reaping the benefit of that by having to be evicted. She ends up having to beg her friend Kira for a couch to sleep on and a hook up with an interview for a new job. Eve was so unprepared for the can of worms that she opens in doing so. Meeting Chadwick opens her eyes into a world she never thought she would ever witness much less be a part of. A bet made, a month's worth of time, will Eve hold out on Chad or will she cave and give into temptation?


Leigh Lennon normally has some really steamy naughty bits; the on fire, need to fan myself, my glasses have fogged up kind; and we get a few bits in this story, but it wasn't with the MC's.  Now, I did take into account what Eve was being introduced to, and seeing as I am a HUGE fan of the BDSM genre.. I found this to be lacking a bit. Still a very good story with loads of drama that pulls you in; if this was based on the BDSM aspect it would be 2.5 stars, but given the amazing drama that pulls you right in, and that I truly did enjoy this story, I give this 4 stars.

Blog Tour & REVIEW ***Hardwood by K.M. Neuhold***

Picture_20200713_175901037

Hardwood

Four Bears Construction Series, Book Three

KM Neuhold

Release Date: 07.01.20

M/M Contemporary Romance

Hardwood-KMN-f900

Blurb

I’ve spent forty-four years of my life telling the world I’m a carpet man. Is it too late to admit to myself and everyone else that deep down I’m really all about the Hardwood?

It took me over thirty-five years to admit to myself that I’m gay, another seven to find the courage to say it out loud to anyone else, and exactly thirty seconds to develop a massive crush on my daughter’s music teacher. It’s really not my fault, have you even seen those cute bowties he wears?

After everything it’s taken to get here, am I going to work up the nerve to come out to my ex-wife and my best friends? Am I ready to shake up my comfortable, simple life and take a chance on Watson? Or am I going to throw a wrench in my own chance for happily ever after?

***Hardwood is a steamy, seriously so much delicious tension, single-dad, gay awakening, low angst story, which happens to be the third in the Four Bears Construction Series. It CAN be read as a stand-alone. There are NO shifters in this series, only the OTHER kind of bears.

Excerpt

It must be nice to be handy. My kitchen sink has had a small drip for a year that I’ve pretty much just ignored because I don’t know what else to do with it,” he confesses. “I can take a quick look next time I come over. I’m no plumber, but it’s probably something basic. You might just need a good caulking.” “Tell me about it,” he agrees. “Oh caulking. Yeah, totally, that.” I quirk an eyebrow at him and laugh when his face goes red. “If anyone’s mind should be in the gutter, shouldn’t it be mine?” “There’s plenty of room down here for all of us,” he assures me. I show him to the living room, realizing once we sit down that I left my laptop out and open when I left the house earlier. “Oh shit.” I close it quickly so he can’t see what I was looking at. “Porn?” he guesses. “Don’t be shy, if you found something good, you really should share it with your friends.” “It wasn’t porn. Although, that goes both ways, feel free to send me any interesting porn links you find.” “Honey, I’m not sure you want to open that floodgate. But if you’re feeling brave, I’m sure I could fill up your inbox with links,” Watson says, grinning wickedly. My cock perks up at the image of him enjoying himself with some porn. Without my permission, my eyes dart to the crotch of his pants. He laughs again, letting me know I’m totally busted. “And you’re claiming I’m the one with my mind in the gutter.” He tsks and shakes his head. “So, if it wasn’t porn, what’s so secret on your laptop?” “It’s nothing,” I lie. “Come on, we’re best friends, you said so yourself.” “I was setting up a dating profile,” I confess. “I didn’t finish it though. It’s probably a bad idea.” “Let me see.” he insists, waving at me to open the laptop back up. “It’s bad,” I warn, opening it up and logging on. I pass him the computer and sit back to wait as he reads my half-finished profile. There’s a half smile on his lips as his eyes are glued to the screen. I watch as different emotions pass over his features as he reads— amusement, tenderness, a cringe or two. “This isn’t horrible,” he says. “It’s not great,” I hedge. “No, it’s not,” Watson agrees. “It’s fixable though, if you’re serious about posting it.” “I don’t know,” I admit. “I started it on a whim this morning while I was sitting here thinking about my friend’s wedding coming up in six months and how much I’d love to have a date to take.” “You want my honest opinion?” he asks. “Please,” I say emphatically, sitting forward with my elbows on my knees, ready to hear whatever truth he’s about to lay on me. “These sites are great for hookups, but not so much for finding the kind of guy you’ll want to take to a friend’s wedding.” I sigh. “I kind of figured as much.” Leaning back, I pull my hat off and toss it onto the coffee table, dragging my fingers through my hair. “Where do I go to find the kind of guy I’d want to take to a wedding then?” Watson snorts a laugh. “Babe, if I knew that, I wouldn’t be forty and living alone with a hedgehog.”

REVIEW

Review by: Jennifer

(5 Stars)

The third of the Four Bears Construction series, and I really think this one out did the first two. I suggest reading the previous ones, they just sort of flow together timeline wise. Everett seemed to be the odd man out, he was straight while his three best friends are gay. What the guys don't know is that Everett is actually still trying to come to terms with the side of him that he never acknowledged, the reason that his marriage ended in divorce; the fact that he is gay. The one time that Ev works up the courage and goes inside of a different gay bar, he meets Watson. All of this is totally new for Ev, while Watson has no qualms about who he is. The two couldn't be more different or more perfect for each other. But Ev is reluctant to come out to his friends and family, will Watson understand Ev's need to keep them quiet for a while or will he become tired of being the dirty secret? 


I really enjoyed this story!! Watching Ev and Watson figure all their drama out was super entertaining. These stories have such a cute factor while at the same time moments that have you laughing out loud, and of course the steamy bits. I give this 5 stars.

And she fully admits that her OCD tendencies of making sure every side character has a full backstory will likely always lead to every book having a spin-off or series.

Dark waters of my past are rising.
If I’m not careful, the tsunami will drown us both.

“I was truly blown away,” Debra P, Amazon Reviewer
“An epically good read,” Aunt G. Top 500 Amazon Vine Voice Reviewer
“…unique and emotional,” MissPetiteBrunette, Amazon Reviewer
“…an awesome book,” Christine Campbell, Amazon Reviewer
I trod water in the deep end of the pool, enjoying the sight of Hayley as she made her way across the decking, her tits almost bouncing out of the top of her tankini. 
I’d give anything to cup them and suck them and fucking bite them.
Whoa, mate. Not gonna happen. She’s not the kinda girl who’d be up for a one-night stand and you’re not the kinda bloke who’d offer more than that…
My dick had stiffened and I dove down into the depths, where I quickly adjusted myself. A ripple in the water, and I opened my eyes. A pint-sized body was swimming toward me, but the chlorine had started stinging, so I shot upward to resurface and shake the droplets from my long hair. Usually tied back except when I was on stage, it hung annoyingly heavy and wet down the sides of my face.
Yankee Girl popped up like a cork from a bottle. She swam to the shallow end and I joined her. “How are you feeling?” she asked.
“Like I’ve been run over by a steamroller, to be honest. And the fucking meds have turned me into a zombie.” 
I made a face at her like I was one of the walking dead, and she laughed. “You gotta let things take their course. The nurse explained that we need to reduce the pills slowly until you can manage without.” 
“Thought I was gonna die on the plane home.” I grimaced. “I’ve never experienced pain like that. I hope I never have to again.”
She shot me a concerned look. “You’re doing great. Let’s just take this one day at a time.”
“Can’t wait to get back to normal,” I huffed.
Except, what would my new normal be? Sober and clean would be a whole new ball game and I didn’t know if I could hack it.
“Axel and Phoenix are looking forward to hanging out with you, now you’re so much better.” Hayley’s mouth curved into a warm smile.
I stuck out my bottom lip. “Yeah. Whatever.”
Having mates ’round without enjoying booze was about as appealing as an audience with the Pope. 
Golden sparks flashed in Yankee Girl’s amber irises. “They care about you.”
“I know,” I said, but still I wallowed in self-pity. “It will be like partying during prohibition.”
“You don’t need alcohol to have a good time,” she responded. 
“Wine, women and song, the adage goes,” I shrugged. “At least I can still fuck and make music.” 
Her heart-shaped face flushed. “Don’t you have any hobbies or play any sports?”
“I’m a musician. Playing music and rehearsing is my life. I exercise in the gym. Never had time for anything else.” I paused, shot her a look. “How about you?”
