Cliffhanger: I dunno
Rating: DNF

Amazon blurb
I'm heartless and cutthroat. It's just the way I was raised.
I had no regrets. Until she showed up.

It started with her old man. That stubborn bastard set me up. He knew what he was doing. I fell for her before I even heard her voice.

What was he thinking, trying to set her up with a prick like me?

She's too good for me. I should've walked away. But every time she told me no, it only made me want to chase her more.

13 Sexiest men in uniform you’ll ever read about

2/24/2017

Men in uniform
There are a few things that will make nearly all women stop whatever they're doing and stare:
  1. Babies
  2. A 50% off sale on designer shoes and handbags
  3. Hot dudes in uniform  

Is it cliche? Yes. But it's true. For the most part, women love men in uniform. (And babies and shoe/handbag sales...but that's a topic for another list, another day.) The romance genre is positively brimming with hot heroes in uniform. There's so many, in fact, that sometimes it can get overwhelming and you're not sure which one you should pick. Because we're givers here at Romance Rehab, we want to help. With that in mind, we've put together this suggested reading list of heroes who'll rock your literary world as easily as they rock their uniforms. You're welcome. Here it goes (in no particular order):

Publication date: 11/21/2016
Publisher: Amazon Digital Services

Cliffhanger: Kinda
Rating: 4.5 out of 5

Amazon blurb
It's been two months since I moved in with Mickey Hart.
Here's what I've learned:
1. 523 square feet is really f*cking small.
2. Sharing a bathroom is the worst idea ever. Especially when you're a damn paraplegic.
3. Never lie. No matter what.
Oh, and one last thing...

I love her. More than ever.
​

Even if I'm still a workaholic. And stubborn as all hell.

Linda Kage interview
I grew up on a dairy farm in the Midwest as the youngest of eight children. Now I live in Kansas with my husband, two daughters, nine cuckoo clocks, and a cat named Holly. My life's been blessed with lots of people to learn from and love. Writing's always been a major part my world, and I'm so happy to finally share some of my stories with other romance lovers.

I'm a member of Romance Writers of America, and I've been through a writing correspondence class in children's literature from The Institute of Children's Literature, and then I continued my writing lessons by majoring in English with an emphasis in creative fiction writing from Pittsburg State University.

​Title: Wait for it
Author: Mariana Zapata
Publication date: 12/07/2016
Publisher: Amazon Digital Services
Kindle Unlimited: Yes
Cliffhanger: No
Rating: 4.5

Amazon blurb
If anyone ever said being an adult was easy, they hadn't been one long enough.

Diana Casillas can admit it: she doesn't know what the hell she's doing half the time. How she's made it through the last two years of her life without killing anyone is nothing short of a miracle. Being a grown-up wasn’t supposed to be so hard.

​With a new house, two little boys she inherited the most painful possible way, a giant dog, a job she usually loves, more than enough family, and friends, she has almost everything she could ever ask for.

Blurb (from Amazon.com):
Dani’s survived a lot of sh*t storms.

Her mother died. Her two sisters loathed her. One aunt hated her. The other was strangely distant, but the worst storm—being dumped by her childhood best friend/high school boyfriend/first love for her younger sister.

There went the one person who was hers and with that, the main reason she stuck around. So, she left for ten years. But now she’s back, and nothing’s the same.

Cliffhanger: No
Rating: 3

Amazon blurb
People call me a lot of things, so you can take your pick. Heartbreaker, trouble-maker, black sheep. I keep the good times flowing in my bar, and the panties dropping in my bedroom.

But then she rolls into town. Prim, proper, preacher’s daughter, saving-herself-for-marriage Evangeline Ellis.

She’s my sweet temptation. The apple in the garden. Original sin.

She’s too inexperienced. Too innocent. Too pure.

What’s wrong with the romance genre?

What’s wrong with the romance genre?
​Crushing the romance stigma once and for all
Romance novel sales tally in the billions of dollars every year. (That's right: billions. With a "b".) And still, literary critics and other various bookish snobs continue to malign the genre, loudly and with great disdain. Why is that? If you ask these folks, they'll tell you romance novels are nothing but badly written trash.

So, y'all have read a bunch of romance novels before forming that opinion, I assume?

​
Oh, no, they'll say, noses tipped heavenward. They don't read romance (with all the contempt in the world placed on the word "romance").

Huh. Now I'm confused.

Why would people be so openly hostile to a genre they've never read? I think I can tell you why.

Rating: 5 out of 5

Amazon blurb
The night I met Drew Jagger, he'd just broken into my new Park Avenue office.

I dialed 9-1-1 before proceeding to attack him with my fancy new Krav Maga skills.

He quickly restrained me, then chuckled, finding my attempted assault amusing.

Of course, my intruder had to be arrogant.

Only, turned out, he wasn't an intruder at all.

Author: T.M. Frazier
Publication date: 06/07/2016

Kindle Unlimited: Yes
Cliffhanger: No
Rating: 2 out of 5

Blurb (from Amazon.com):
They call me Rage.
My real name is like a shadow, always close behind, but never quite able to catch up.
I fly under the radar because no one ever suspects I’m capable of the kind of brutal violence I commit each and every day.
You see, I’m a girl. I’m nineteen.
And I'm a killer.
This life is all I know. It’s all I want to know. It keeps the shit buried that I need kept buried. It allows me to live without thinking too much.
Without dwelling on the past.
