#BookReview: Princess of Zamibia (Royal Brides, 1) by Delaney Diamond

Image
I continue with my excursion into the world of royal romance with  Princess of Zamibia by Delaney Diamond BLURB “Live in the moment with me.”  That’s what he asked Dahlia to do, and she did, because after a near death experience, her motto was to live life to the fullest. She gave him everything. Her body. Her heart. Then it all came to an abrupt end. She didn’t anticipate he wouldn’t trust her. She didn’t anticipate she couldn’t trust him.  He wants his son.  Three years later, Prince Kofi returns and he’s not the same man. He’s bitter and angry and knows he has a son. He’ll do whatever it takes to bring his heir back to Zamibia, even if it means marrying the woman he believes betrayed him.  Dahlia must now raise her son in a culture she doesn’t fully understand, but when a nightmare strikes the royal family, will it bring her and Kofi closer together, or tear them apart for good? MY REVIEW Rating: 4.5 stars! The story starts with Prince Kof...

Image
Stranded on Vail Mountain by Desiree L.

A park ranger for the mountain resort, he set out on the routine mission, knowing he was running out of time as the blizzard hit with visibility zero.

He had been there before and vowed never to return.  As Mother Nature raged, Joan was soon overcome by the feelings a complete stranger evoked in her, causing her to reevaluate her own life.

#BookReview: His Defiant Princess by Nana Prah | #HisDefiantPrincess #RHOSaene @NanaPrah

His Defiant Princess is Book 1 of the Royal House of Saene series from Love Africa Press. Before I continue, I should mention (especially those who are new to me of my blog that I wrote book 2 of the series. Aside from communication to ensure consistency in common aspects of the series, we had very little input in each other's stories, so I was very excited to get my hands on the final product, which I am reviewing today. Here's the blurb: Princess Amira Saene has always done the right thing when it came to her beloved Kingdom of Bagumi. Yet her unorthodox online relationship with a man across the sea has derailed her from cultural norms. She doesn’t care. After a year of communicating, the man she’s developed feelings for comes to visit. Their chemistry is intense and she tumbles the rest of the way into love. With the threat of war looming over her country, Amira is thrown in the middle as a peacemaker through an arranged marriage. Jake Pettersen never thought he’d...

He never dated any woman twice | Expecting Ty's Baby @empibaryeh #Excerpt #Teaser #AAromance

Hello there and thanks for visiting. I'm sharing another excerpt from Chapter one of  Expecting Ty's Baby . This follows from last week's post. If you missed you my last two excerpts, you might want to read then before embarking on part 3. Chapter 1: Part 1 Chapter 1: Part  2 Chapter 1: Part  3 EXPECTING TY'S BABY © by Empi Baryeh 2019 (Chapter 1: Part 4) He’d been just in time to see Patricia walk into the main reception, an African goddess, her skin a flawless cocoa brown much darker than his caramel complexion. High heels added a couple of inches to her five-seven frame. She’d been wearing skinny jeans and a fashionable blouse made from African print fabric. Slung over one shoulder was a handbag, and in her other hand she held, of all things, a silver toolbox. His curiosity aroused, he’d lingered at the entryway. She’d flashed an even set of pearly whites at the receptionist and asked for Naaki, whom he’d had the pleasure of teasing his best f...

I’ve been thinking about you as well | His Inherited Princess by @EmpiBaryeh | #LAPLoveNotes

Image
Hello and welcome to another #LAPLoveNotes, where  writers share teasers from the work-in-progress or published stories. This week, I'm sharing another snippet from His Inherited Princess, (Royal House of Saene Book 2). It's a section of the story that made me laugh when writing it. “There’s no shame in admitting it. I’ve been thinking about you, as well,” he said. “I’ve concluded that I must kiss you again.” He palmed her abdomen, causing sensual havoc with his gentle caresses. Her breath came in short, shallow bursts while the distance between them began to shrink.   “No.” It sounded like a plea, and yet, she found herself adding, “Please.”   “What are you afraid of?”   “This isn’t about fear. How can you suspect me of treason and yet want to kiss me?”   He pulled back. “I don’t see what one has to do with the other.”   I hope you enjoyed the snippet. Please leave me a comment. If you want to find out what happens next, get your ...

Hello there and thanks for visiting. I'm sharing another excerpt from Chapter one of Expecting Ty's Baby . This follows from Wednesday's post. Read  Chapter 1, Part 1   before you embark on part 2. Enjoy! 💖 EXPECTING TY'S BABY © by Empi Baryeh 2019 (Chapter 1: Part 2) Patricia blew out a breath of pent up frustration then sipped her tea in favor of wasting any effort in trying to deny the truth of her friend’s words. She was no prude, but sex with Ty had been beyond her expectations. She sighed. He’d been so attuned to her needs, touching her as if he’d known her body for much longer than a week. He’d branded her in a way she wasn’t sure could be replicated. Would her body ever get over him? She shoved the thoughts out of her mind, squaring her shoulders in a false show of indifference. “It doesn’t matter. We’re never going to see each other again, so what’s the point? What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.” “Him or you? Don’t assume Ty is going to ma...
