This is
another one of those moments where I completely hate my brain along with a few
random strangers. I fell into the alphaletes series by fluke and loved it. As I
put down each book, I added the next one to KU and then took my sweet time
getting to it only to want to kick myself for it. Then I was trying to pick
what to read next and I made the epic mistake of reading reviews.
Now my first
question is why the F do people feel the need to write a “review” about a book
they haven't read. Or give their opinions on things that they are assuming
happened. Because honestly, I had this sour taste in my mouth picking this up
assuming that those reviews were genuine reviews of the book. And I almost
removed it from my kindle and skipped to the next one. To those people, FU.
Because this
book was nothing but awesome. And the whole story had literally nothing to do
with the ex-wife, his man wh0re ways, or Scarlett ever being second best to
anyone. They just had bad timing and realistic circumstances that got in their
way. And that goes for both of them. Scarlett wasn't sitting around pining for
him, watching him screw his wife. She was living her life and having a great
friendship with the guy she has been friends ONLY with since they were 7.
Ok rant
over. The book was great. I loved catching up with the alphaletes. Trevor
redeemed himself hugely and so freaking hotly I actually had to take a moment
to cool down. Slater was an epic hero who loved Scarlet so completely it was
sweet and also oh so hot. The dirty talk was on point.
The twist at
around the 70% mark was huge and took me on a journey I absolutely didn't for a
second even suspect. I struggled to put it down. The ending was cute, but I
wanted more (I'm greedy AF) but now I get to read Trevor's book and I just know
we are going to get a lot of future alphaletes and their beautiful wives and
possibly more children so I'm off to grab it on KU and hopefully read it sooner
than later.

My troubles all started with a beautiful boy on the beach...
Leaving my friends and home during senior year to move to Florida sucks, but when my dad decides to marry his long-distance girlfriend, I have no choice.
My first night in Bipal is full of booze and bonfires, and a blue-eyed boy with adorable glasses and a charming smile.
Footsies in the sand lead to a walk down the beach, and by the end of the night, I'm a changed girl.
The next morning, I come downstairs to find my blue eyed boy sitting at the kitchen table.
We make a pact to leave what happened between in the past. But stolen glances across the kitchen, grazed pinkies in the hall, bumped knees at the dinner table...
Pretending I don't want Reed Lancaster is the hardest thing I've had to do...
You're not supposed to fall in love with your step-brother...
But what if two pink lines are involved?

Abby met her husband at a house party the summer before her freshman year of college. He had a secret pizza stashed in the trunk of his car that he was saving for a midnight snack--how was she supposed to resist that level of golden retriever energy and preparedness?

Ok confession time. I honestly can’t remember anything about any of the earlier Preston siblings' books. Like I vaguely remember their names and I get de ja vu moments at certain things, but I read this book as a standalone. Which luckily the author did say could be done except for the potential spoilers for the previous couples. And when I went to check my reading status of the other books before I started reading this, I saw they are all 5 star reads for me. And this author has never let me down with all of the feels.
But like I said I went into this with no clue what I was getting, and I was instantly obsessed with both Liam and Addie. The only downside was that it took me so long to read this book because I couldn’t just pick it up for 5 minutes in the school pick up line. Every second chapter had me literally bawling my eyes out. And half the time I was smiling or laughing through giggles and the other half I was struggling to read through the tears.
From the outside looking in Liam Preston has a charmed life. Despite his mother's passing he had a large close-knit family who were more than financially comfortable. But it just goes to show that you never know what is going on in other people’s lives. And the fact that he took the time to hear Addie out and let all his fears come to light just showed how strong and kind he was.
But Addie. OMG Addie. Every time we got another layer of her story my heart kept wondering how much more it could take. And every time I wanted to be mad at her for the harm she caused Liam when they were younger, she would explain her side of the same event and I just wanted to wrap her in a hug and fight all her demons. Luckily, she didn’t need me to with all the amazing people she had on her side.
I can’t wait to get the next book, especially after that teaser at the end. And I really think the next time I have a few kid free days and a bottle of wine and tub of ice-cream I need to do a series reread because this book wrecked me in the absolute best ways.

(Walker University Stallions book 2)
by Ava Sutton
BLURB:
On the field, I protect my zone like my life depends on it. Off the field, I like to have a little fun.
My last year at Walker University was supposed to be about football, family, and hanging out with my boys. I had it all under control—until her. Emma, the stunning blonde, who intercepts my heart and changes the game. Mysterious, enchanting, unforgettable. One night with her wasn’t nearly enough.
I searched everywhere, but the campus might as well have swallowed her whole.
Just when I thought I’d never see her again, she shows up on my doorstep… pregnant with my baby.
Now I’m playing for keeps, ready to prove to her that I’m no longer the notorious playboy around campus, and I'm more than my stats and headlines. The stakes are higher, the obstacles tougher—but now, there's something far more important than a championship.
It's about securing my future. My family. My girl.

Falling for the guy who broke my heart years ago wasn’t on my to-do list when I snuck into his condo.
Maverick Walker was my best friend, my safe place—the boy I trusted with my whole heart—until one reckless kiss in high school ruined everything. Now, he’s an NFL football player, and I’m a struggling small-town hair stylist, newly single and expecting a baby. With my ex gone and someone vandalizing my business, my life feels like it’s crumbling beneath me.
When my best friend Paige suggests hiding out in Maverick’s swanky condo to regroup while he’s recovering from an injury in New York, it seems like a lifeline.
Except he comes home. Unexpectedly. When I’m half-dressed.
Now I’m stuck in his orbit again, unprepared for the way he still makes my heart race. Maverick is charming, ridiculously hot, and as off-limits as ever. But I have bigger problems than his smoldering smile—like figuring out who’s targeting me and why they won’t stop.
As the threats escalate, so do Maverick’s protective instincts. But with his life in New York and mine in Texas, our worlds couldn’t be further apart. And yet, with danger closing in, his arms are the only safe haven I have left.
But how do I let him protect me without risking my heart again—when loving him feels as out of reach as a falling star?
Falling Stars is a single mom, forced proximity, friends to lovers romance with second chance vibes. If you enjoy charming cowboys, sassy heroines, or secretive small towns, this book is for you!

Meet Lex Martin
Lex Martin is the USA Today bestselling author of Varsity Dads, Texas Nights, and the Dearest series. She writes contemporary romance novels, the steamy kind she hopes readers love but her parents avoid.
She's always been obsessed with writing, starting in elementary school when she would pen short stories and make her father read them. (Afterward, he'd have to take her tests, but he was a good sport and did them without complaint.) In high school, when she wasn't playing basketball, she wrote emo poetry and worked on the school newspaper.
She later became a nationally-certified high school English teacher and freelance journalist but decided she'd rather write romance novels than tests or city hall articles.
Lex loves coffee, rom coms, pen hoarding, planners, and college football.
She married her almost college sweetheart (they met right after graduation), and she's still obsessed with him, especially when he writes her songs.
She currently resides in her hometown of San Antonio with her husband, twin daughters, and their bunny. Drop her a line. She loves hearing from readers.
