In this grudge match, the first to score…

When style columnist Matilda Kent accidentally lets slip that she was once involved with the captain of the Sydney Smoke rugby team, she suddenly finds herself elevated to the position she’s always wanted – feature writer. The catch? She’s stuck doing a six-part series on her ex. Still, there’s no way she can turn down a promotion…or the chance to dish the dirt on the guy who so callously broke her heart.

…could win it all!

Tanner Stone wants to be involved in a feature series about as much as he wants to snap an Achilles. But the thought of seeing Tilly again is a bonus—and has him more worked up than he wants to admit. Only he’s not prepared for how different she is – all cool and professional. His Tilly is still in there, though…and he still wants her, now more than ever. All he has to do is charm her into giving him a rematch. And this time, winner takes all!

I will fight for what is mine.  

When the king is murdered, Katerina, his only daughter, must flee for her life. She finds herself on a strange and dangerous path. Alone for the first time, she’s forced to rely upon her wits and the kindness of strangers, while protecting her royal secret at the same time. 

Because she alone knows the truth. It was her brother who killed the king. And he's coming for her next. 

Alone and struggling, she finds herself an instant target until a mysterious protector comes to her aid. Together, and with a collection of the most unlikely friends, the group must navigate through an enchanted world just as fantastical as it can be deadly. But time is not on their side. 

With her brother’s assassins closing in at every turn, Katerina must unlock a secret that’s hidden deep inside her. The only thing strong enough to keep the darkness at bay. 

Can she find the answers she needs? Will she ever take her rightful place on the throne? 

Only one thing is certain: she’s running out of time 

Be careful who you trust. Even the devil was once an angel.

ARC Review: Girl Least Likely to Marry by Amy Andrews

Girl Least Likely to Marry 
by Amy Andrews
Released Date: Expected publication: July 23rd 2013 by Harlequin KISS
Series: The Wedding Season #2
Pages: 224
View/Purchase: Goodreads, Amazon, B&N

Talk nerdy to me
Samuel Tucker is absolutely the last person scientist Cassie Barclay would ever date. Yes, he's gorgeous, but he's also far too cocky for his own good and thinks that Pi is a tasty afternoon treat. So when he asks her to dance at her friend Reese's non-wedding she's wondering why on earth she says yes! 

Tuck is used to people assuming he's all brawn and no brain, and amuses himself by winding Cassie up. But when he finally takes her to bed, suddenly it's Tuck who can show Cassie a thing or two! Can he convince her that love and sex have nothing to do with logic and everything to do with chemistry?

My Review:

A new take to modern romance. In the Girl Least Likely to Marry, Cassie Barclay, a scientist whose idea of romance is the least of her concerns has been invited to her friend's wedding and ends up meeting ex-NFL quarterback Samuel Tucker. From the very beginnings Cassie was determined to stay away from Tucker, but as a ladies' man, Tucker has other ideas in mind. He is determined to win over the smarty scientist and teach her a thing or two about what she has been missing all her life. As a scientist, Cassie believes in logic and it's purpose. She is not afraid to say whatever comes to her mind and she is definitely not shy when it comes to her attraction towards Tucker. She believes that the need that she has for him is all for scientific purpose, and nothing else. But as the pair start to get close, they soon realize that the chemistry that they have for one another may not be scientific after all. 

I really enjoyed reading this story, it's definitely something that I've never read before. The heroine in the book is smart and knows what she wants. She uses what she has gathered from books and knowledge to prove why things are happening to her, but she can't explain love. She doesn't want to be tied to a man, after all, her career is what she values the most. Cassie remained me of Temperance Brennan from the show Bones, they both have the same qualities and they view things the same way. Tuck is definitely someone to look out for, he is smart and he is also very likable. I found myself laughing from time to time while reading the novel. There are some pretty funny scenes that just make the book that much more interesting to read. The author did a good job developing the characters and at the end she tied everything very well. I will recommend this book to those of you that want something unique, romantic and funny to read.
