BLURB:
From authors Chelle Bliss and Brenda Rothert comes a smoldering standalone enemies to lovers romance that will, ahem…check all your boxes.  

Reagan
I hate him. Jude Titan is everything that’s wrong with the male sex: cocky, domineering and loaded with swagger. Oh, and did I mention he’s a Republican? Yeah, the guy’s so conservative he leans to the right when walking. And lucky me, I’m running against him for Senate. But I’ve got plenty of fight in me. A golden boy war hero opponent with a smile that leaves melted panties in its wake? Bring. It. On.
 
Jude
Damn, she’s sexy. Reagan Preston intrigues me from the moment I lay eyes on her. And speaking of laying…I want between those thighs. But I want to make her burn for me first. Every debate and stolen moment is foreplay for us. She claims she hates me, but her body tells a different story. I plan to win this election, but I also want to win the sharp, fiery Democrat who captures my attention like no woman ever has. Politics is filthy, just like all the things I want to do to Reagan Preston. 



My Rating:



Favorite Quotes:


I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to resist you.

With you, everything is so much more.

Reagan hasn’t changed me, except to make me a better man.  



My Review:


Two swoon-worthy political opponents meet while battling each other on the campaign trail and feel an instant attraction that they clandestinely explore, indulge, and hide from even their own staffers.  The thrill of the forbidden, unearthing deeply hidden secrets, dirty political tricks, and the risk of being exposed to their voting public all add to the mix.  Was the budding relationship and teasing just for campaign trail thrills or could it be more?  Can either candidate be trusted - or are they just playing each other?  Remarks are made that could be used either way.  The premise of Dirty Work was relevant and timely.  The writing was engaging and entertaining as well as deliciously steamy, but the characters were the best part of this piece – they were well drawn, realistic, alluring, endearing, and people I would want to know.

Book Review: Blown Away by Brenda Rothert


        

Blown Away


by Brenda Rothert


 Amazon

Barnes and Noble

 iBooks

 Goodreads


  In an emotionally charged, wickedly hot novel of love and loss, a passionate affair gives two daring storm chasers the strength to overcome shattered dreams and the courage to build a future together. 

 One year after her fiancĂ© died in a heartbreaking accident, Drew McGovern decides to honor his memory by joining his old storm-chasing buddies on their latest excursion. What she’s not so sure about, however, is whether she’s ready to move on. Drew wasn’t expecting to feel the powerful pull of desire toward Colby’s best friend. But there’s no denying the intensity of their connection . . . or the heat he inspires in the parts of her that are still very much alive. Aiden O’Neal doesn’t trust himself around Drew. He’s wanted this girl for a long time—long enough to remember the stab of jealousy he felt the first time he saw her in Colby’s arms. Now he’s trying his best to behave himself. But when the wind starts blowing and the adrenaline starts pumping, Aiden can’t resist the urge to claim Drew as his own. Because when it comes to desire, he’s hoping to make lightning strike twice.  


My Rating:



Favorite Quotes:


“Colby was gone.  In all the ways that mattered, his light had stopped shining on a rainy highway early this morning."

"Dot shook her head and pulled a large white bra from the dryer.  She held it high for me.  'You enjoy that body while you can missy.  Someday you'll have to load your boulders into one of these.'"

"Her eyes searched mine, waiting for a reaction.  It reached something inside me that brought a lump of emotion to my throat.  I mattered to her.  In this world we all needed a safe place where we could bring our wild ideas and expose our vulnerability, and I was hers."


My Review:


Blown Away was my first Brenda Rothert read and will be one of many.  I found her work to be entertaining, engaging, and a pleasant surprise.  The storyline was interesting, developed quickly, and was easy to follow.  The writing was highly emotive and full of feels with welcome hits of humor and steamy sensuality.  The characters were endearing, complex, well drawn, and squeezed my heart.  Ms. Rothert has a new fangirl.

Cover Reveal: Night Shift Anthology #6 - Healing Touch by Brenda Rothert

Night Shift FB

brenda


Title: Healing Touch 
Author: Brenda Rothert 
Release Date: March 17, 2015

Blurb: She spends her nights treating patients, but Dr. Jocelyn Drake’s own wounds are unfixable. Her ex-husband and his younger, bouncier girlfriend work just a few floors away at Tulane Medical Center, and they serve as a constant reminder of what Joss lost. But a fierce determination to continue her research project and a shred of remaining pride keep Joss from transferring out of the Big Easy. Carson Stephens recently returned from a tour of duty in the Middle East, and though willing women present themselves at every turn, his closest companion is loneliness. His night-shift work supervising the electrical and mechanical systems at the hospital is a perfect fit – it’s solitary work putting broken things back together. When the electrical system on Joss’ floor goes haywire, she’s frazzled by the sexy electrician who sparks her dormant sex drive. He’s brooding and cocky – so not her type. But if Carson has his way, his hands will work their magic on more than just the wiring, and he’ll show Joss a night of passion that restores her shattered confidence.
