Blazing Miami sun. Cool classic cars. Dangerous undercover assignment. In Sidney Bristol’s scorching new Hot Rides series, the cars are fast and the romance is furious…

Aiden DeHart has a history—and secrets. His classic car garage is a front for an FBI operation. His current mission: get some evidence from a drug dealer’s ex-wife, then get out. Madison Haughton sending his engine into overdrive isn’t part of the plan, though, especially considering she might not be as innocent as Aiden thought…

Since her divorce from her sleazeball ex, Madison has sworn off bad boys, gotten some sweet tattoos, and become a star of Miami’s roller derby scene. But however fast she skates, her ex is always on her tail. When the sexy guy in the muscle car offers to help, he could be her ticket to safety—or a detour down a deadly road…

As much as I love men in uniform, undercover operations do draw out the sexy guys. It's all about control: making sure you say the right words and act a certain way. Once your cover's blown, you might not live to see another day. There is always the thrill of trying not to get caught and if you like the thrill of getting caught up in a book, you'll love this one. It's filled with fast cars, bad guys, a whole lot of action (sexy times and shoot outs). You wouldn't expect love to fall into the mix...but it does!

Aiden DeHart, works alongside the FBI to take down a drug dealer, who has taken a few years to track down. A guy who makes sure to clean up his messes. In order to get close to him, Aiden tries to draw out data from his right hand man, Dustin Ross. Only, there is a problem...Dustin's ex-wife stole the drive he needs. Since he does have a way with woman, things may have gotten easier for Aiden. 

All Madison Ross really needed was to get away from her ex-husband. Everywhere she turns, every time she wants to start over, Dustin always finds a way to mess with her. She has the one thing he needs and she'll make sure he doesn't get it. When a handsome guy like Aiden shows up, claiming the drive is the only way to take down a drug dealer and her ex-husband, she couldn't help but go along for the ride. 

Thoughts:

PLOT LINE - The thrill of an undercover operation is wrapped up with gangs, drugs, money, guns and hidden data. It is like a roller coaster ride with turns that may be a little predictable. But, there are parts that are not as such. Aiden likes to stick to his plans when it comes to getting what he wants. And, when another gang, the Eleventh, comes into play, things get a bit messy because they like to play dirty. The car chases and unexpected visits will certainly stir up some drama. When a woman is an added element the story, it can change things up as well. Especially, when she is connected to the guy he wants to take down for good. Although he shouldn't get involved with her, he can't help the protective nature that comes out. 

CHEMISTRY - Aiden's possessiveness + Madison's sassiness = explosive romance. Not only is their love kinda forbidden, it just hits him when he least expected it. From that instant connection as their eyes connected and careful touches were exchanged...you know the sexy times will be amazing. The only thing that bothered me was how she can trust him so easily. Of course she is hesitant at first, but I expected her to take some more time than it should, to gain his trust. Maybe Aiden's sweet talk drew her in and is not bad on the eyes either. The way he projects himself: wanting to protect her, in an alpha male kind of way, is pretty sexy. I guess the feeling of safety is all Madison needed. 

CREW - It's like when the Fast N' Furious team went undercover and were all badass to get things done. It's the characters that work alongside Aiden that makes it more special. It feels like they are a tight knit group. They all have their different quirks and it helps bring other characteristics from each other. There is a set of twins, who are my favorite. They are complete opposites, who balance the other out, and gets things done and under control. I can't wait until their stories are told. I love it when love blossoms within the group too!

BLOG TOUR REVIEW - City of Love by Kaira Rouda

Publication Date: March 2

Genre: Romance, Contemporary, Novella

PURCHASE NOW: AMAZON

Her heart is empty in the new life she’s living.
Charlotte Taylor knows she’s gorgeous. She’s been told that all her life. Since she was a child, her mom, a former model and Miss Georgia, has been grooming her for a professional modeling career and tomorrow, she’ll sign with the top agency in New York City. It should be a dream come true.

Alone, and unhappy, she doesn’t know where to turn.
Hale Scott works long hours as a chef at the hottest restaurant in Manhattan. It should be his dream job, serving hip food to the coolest crowd in the city. The only problem is his boss. The highlight of his evening is the gorgeous woman he keeps making eye contact with, sitting at the table closest to the kitchen. She looks sad and lonely and he hopes she’s still there when the dinner rush subsides.

Charlotte and Hale find an instant connection but a relationship is the last thing Charlotte needs and the only thing Hale wants. Can they find a way to stay together in the overwhelming city, or can they find their own city of love?

Cameo by: Siena Remington from Melissa Foster’s Flames of Love 

**Remington Kindle World Novella based off of Melissa Foster's Remington Series** 

Don't miss Spotlight on Love, Kaira Rouda'a 1st Kindle World Spin-off.

If you're in the mood for an insta-love or love at first sight or HEA kind of romance...

City of Love by Kaira Rounda is perfect for you. 

So what happens when you're stuck in a position you don't want to be in? A place where you are not truly happy. Charlotte Taylor, a model from Atlanta, flies to NYC for a chance to sign with one of the top modeling agencies in the country. Only problem...it's not her dream, but her mother's. Hale Scott, the head chef of NYC's trendiest restaurant PRIME, cooking for the rich and famous. Only problem...he hates the person he works for. But when they set eyes on each other for one night...it's the night that will change their lives. 

Thoughts:

PLOT LINE - This probably sounds cliche but the novella is short, sweet, and to the point! The story revolves around one night. A night filled with adventure, steamy glances, sexy moves, and taking leaps. A lot can happen in one night...can you fall in love along the way? Of course. If it's meant to be...it's meant to be. The story does flow pretty well and at a quick pace. If I was given a full book of their story, I will probably love it more. But when I'm in the mood for a quick romance, this fits the bill. With the dual POV, you'll get to see both sides of the story! Then you can tell when one person is invested in the relationship more than the other. I just love it when they wait for the other to catch up in that department. I think this story does a great job with it. Can you guess who might fall in love first? ;) 

CHEMISTRY - From the moment they met, Hale Scott has a way with words. With the initial meeting, I love how Charlotte finds a way to get him to talk to her. It's actually pretty sweet and once he came over....you will prob die from his hotness. Just everything that comes out of his mouth will leave you breathless. Damn, all those light touches will leaving you swooning as well. Hale Scott is one swoon-worthy guy. When they finally get a break from what's holding them back, things get more interesting. Those sexy times are just as hot as the initial interactions. 

I just love how everything is just perfect in the end...because everyone deserves a happy ending.
