COCKY DUKE
BY ANNABELLE ANDERS
Mrs. Ambrosia Bloomington, now a widow, is ready to start a new life
amongst Mayfair elites without the overarching reach of her late husband, Mr.
Harrison Bloomington. With her trunks
loaded safely onto her own private carriage, she’s ready to face the world as
an independent woman in Regency London.
She does not, however, bargain for cocksure Frenchman, Mr. Charles
Cochran Bateman coming along and turning her very ordinary journey into the
adventure of a lifetime.
She does not bargain for his laughter, his enthusiasm, nor his Joie de
vie.
And blast and fiddlesticks, she certainly is not expecting to experience
the sparks that charge the air between them.
And, it seems, apparently, neither is he…

MOTHER CLUCKER
BY CAT JOHNSON
They say opposites attract, but in this case, they might
just combust . . .
HEATHER
Hermosa Beach seems to be the place for throwing together unlikely
opposites.
My rooster Rowdy and his new crush, Pixy the goat.
Me and the obnoxiously cocky cowboy from Texas . . .
But unlike Rowdy and Pixy, there’s no way I’m going to fall
for David Strickland.
Nope. Not gonna happen. I could never be with a man so
completely opposed to everything I believe . . . no matter how hot he is.
DAVID
There couldn’t be two people more different than the
beautiful little tree hugger and rooster rescuer Heather and me.
We can’t agree on anything, except that we disagree on
everything—some times more heatedly than other times. And believe me, things
are starting to heat up between us, in more ways than one.
She's the last thing I expected to find at an animal shelter
in California. But now I found her, I have no intention of letting her go.
I just have to get her on board with that plan.

4 1/2 out of 5 stars
This is the first book for me from this author, but I really enjoyed it. It's part of the Cocky Hero Club, but read amazing as a stand alone....with a glimpse of one of my favorite cocky heroes - Chance (from Cocky Bastard) and his pet goat Pixy.
Heather and David were the perfect couple. They were antagonists and really had nothing in common in the beginning, but as they got to know each other, they found the perfect common ground and their relationship bloomed from there.
The story moved at a realistic pace making me yearn for things to go faster and yet loving the slow pace they were getting to know each other at. I can't think of a passage of this story I didn't like and I"m so thankful for the chance to get to know a new author through a book series!
SECRET KEEPER
BY CHRISTOPHER HARLAN
She was the fruit of a forbidden tree, but nothing in this
world was going to stop me from tasting her.
My name is Dylan Murphy, and I work for the rich and
powerful of an exclusive Manhattan building. Graham Morgan was my first boss,
but soon after I was working with some of the most famous entrepreneurs,
business moguls, and movie stars in the city. They trusted me because I always
followed the cardinal rules:
Never betray secrets. And never, under any circumstance, get
personally involved.
I’d never dreamed of violating my professional mantra.
Not until she walked past me.
The look we exchanged that night set my body on fire, and I
knew right then and there that no matter the consequences, she was going to be
mine. But she was one of them—off limits and out of my league, but she was the
kind of woman who I was willing to risk everything for.
I keep other people’s secrets for a living, but the biggest
secret of all might be my own.

COCKY CAPTAIN
BY ELLIE MASTERS
Ex-fighter pilot, Logan Reid, is exactly the kind of man I
despise. He’s a cocky jet jock, a former Navy Blue Angel, and full of all the
arrogance that comes with being the best of the best.
I’m an ex-Zoomie, an Air Force tanker pilot. The rivalry
between our sister services is nothing compared to that between fighter jocks
and tanker pilots. We’re bitter rivals and I’m low-man (woman) on the totem
pole
The last thing I need is to spend six hours at thirty-five
thousand feet locked in a cockpit with the cocky captain. But I have no choice.
I’m his co-pilot, and we’re taking the CEO of Montague Enterprises, and his
family, on a mini-vacation to the Grand Caymans.
We have three days on the ground before we fly back.
Three long days in paradise and he wants to spend them all
with me.
I have a thing for fighter pilots.
It isn’t animosity, exactly, but rather a deep-seated
dislike. They get all the glory while the rest of us sit at the butt end of
their jokes and wither beneath their ridicule.
I hate fighter pilots. There, I said it. I hate the arrogant
pricks with a passion.
But after one look into those magnetic eyes, and the
devastating wink which follows, I’m thinking of throwing caution to the wind.
What harm can come from some innocent flirting? Besides, it’s not as if my job
is at risk.
I’m not prepared for the air to sizzle when he’s close.
I’m not ready for our explosive chemistry when he touches my
skin.
I’m not equipped for the fallout when our three days come to
an end.
And I never expected to fall in love.
But all good things come to an end.
I wasn’t prepared when I walked away.
And I wasn’t ready for what came next.
He’s arrogant.
He’s cocky.
He’s determined to get what he wants.
And he’s refuses to
let this end.
He’s fighting for a forever…with me.
But, I’m not ready for our beginning.
He’s arrogant enough to prove me wrong.

SEXY SUIT
BY J.H. CROIX
When I met Ryan, I might’ve been trying to break into his
basement.
It was for a good cause. I swear. Also, my dog broke in
first.
Ryan Blake is jaw-dropping handsome, wealthy & cocky.
Not quite my type. By some miracle, he doesn’t call the police on me when he
catches me trying to rescue my dog. He even fetches a doctor for me. Don’t ask
why.
I don’t figure I’ll see him again. Then, I do. Then, he
kisses me. Once. Twice. Is three times the charm? To be honest, I swooned at
the first kiss.
All swooning aside, we are seriously opposites. I wear
cowboy boots and skirts. He wears suits and ties. He’s all New York City. I’m a
Southern girl looking for a new start. We even talk at different speeds.
The list of things I don’t expect from Ryan is long. I don’t
expect him to think twice about me. I don’t expect him to nearly bring me to my
knees with a look. I don’t expect him to be so much more than I ever imagined.
I absolutely don’t expect to fall for him. So hard I’m
skidding sideways just to catch my balance.

WICKED BEDMATE
BY JENIKA SNOW
Getting fired and humiliated in front of everyone at my
newly acquired secretarial job at Morgan Financial Holdings wasn’t how I’d seen
my day going.
And then chaos—or maybe luck—ensured.
I was set up on a blind date, shocked that my former boss
was giving me a month’s severance, and had the perfect interview lined up.
Maybe things were looking up for me after all.
And although finding a man should have been on the bottom of
my to-to list, I couldn’t get Jason—the uber sexy blind date—out of my head.
Sexy and confident—or maybe arrogant—he had me yearning for more with just a
smoldering look and a smirk of his lips.
But when a night of drinking leads to getting in bed with
him and having the wildest, most intense night of my life, I didn’t know if I
should ask to see him again, or do the good old walk of shame.
And it’s when I walk into my interview the next day and come
face-to-face with my prospective employer that the reality of my situation
sinks in.
Because there, sitting across from me with that devilish
smile on his face, that knowing expression of what we’d done the night before,
is the one and only Jason, my supposedly one-night stand.
Looked like my humiliation wasn’t over just yet.

LUCKY BASTARD
BY KAYLEE RYAN
Emma
When my best friend Aubrey asked me to tag along to an event
with her, I never could have imagined that it would be the day that my life
changed forever.
He’s arrogant and demanding and doesn’t take a hint. Landon
Barker, the quarterback for the Hermosa Beach Trojans, is a player on and off
of the field. He’s got his sights set on me as his next play, but I see right
through him. Aubrey says I’m overreacting, that I should give him a chance.
What she doesn’t realize is men like Landon don’t fall for the girl next door.
That’s not reality. She got her fairytale, although it was a long road. Not all
of us are that lucky.
Landon
She’s a friend of our new kicking coach’s wife. When I ask
Chance for her number, he tells me I have to find a way to get it myself.
Nothing when it comes to Emma has been easy. She’s the first
woman ever to turn me down, and that won’t do. However, as time passes, it’s
about more than that. It’s about her smile, her laugh, and just spending time
with her. She thinks I’m a player, and she’s right. What she doesn’t know is
that I play to win, and her heart is the ultimate trophy.

4 1/2 out of 5 stars
I loved how much this book involved the crew from Cocky Bastard as part of the Cocky Hero Club. Cocky Bastard is one of my favorite books of all time and I was excited to read a companion novel with it!
Emma and Landon have that instant connection, but I absolutely love that he had to work for it and that they both went slow with each other. This story was a slow burn with plenty of heat behind it. I enjoyed both characters. Landon was cocky and sweet. He won her heart (and mine) by just being real and being there. Emma was funny and a little lost, but she knew what she wanted, too.
I enjoyed this story and wish there was more so I could keep up with these fabulous characters!
COCKSURE ACE
BY K WEBSTER
I’m a fighter.
At least that’s what my daddy always told me.
It’s in our blood.
Hard work, hustle, and a little Hennessey is the Reid motto.
He taught me to fight for everything I wanted in life.
Take down those who threaten the dream.
My dream is to marry the perfect man.
That man is my father’s best friend and I won’t stop until I
have him.
And at Daddy’s wedding in Costa Rica, I plan to make that
dream finally come true.
Then, my life will be smooth sailing.
Until a chance flight with an arrogant pilot throws me off
course.
Literally.
Camilo’s decisions affect my future, and I can’t allow
anything—not even a cocksure, ridiculously hot idiot—to stand in my way.
Problem is, he fights back.
Every battle I’ve won in life, he shoots down and exposes me
for the fraud I am.
Trapped in paradise with my devilishly handsome nemesis
seems like one of the seven circles of Hell…and, boy, is it getting hot around
here.
He’ll strip me of my armor.
Remind me of my past.
Force me to rethink my future.
And help me live in the moment.
Will he steal my heart too?
One thing’s for sure.
This girl won’t give up without a fight.

CLUTCH PLAYER
BY NIKKI ASH
Harper
I fell in love when I was sixteen. Landon was my entire
world and I thought he would be my forever. But I was young and dumb, and with
one error in judgement, I destroyed any chance of a future we could’ve had
together, along with our hearts.
Twelve years later and I’m going through the motions of
life, but not actually living. Which is why I let my friends, Bridget and
Simon, set me up on a blind date. Turns out, it’s not so blind after all.
Because the man sitting in front of me is the same man who’s held onto my heart
all these years.
Landon
They call me a Clutch Player because I’m good under pressure
and quick on my feet. I was also quick to fall in love. The first time it was
with baseball, the second was with Harper. And for a short time I had them
both.
Until I lost Harper and all I had left was baseball.
For years, I focused on my career. I had accepted that
baseball was my one true love.
Until I saw her again. I never imagined we’d ever get a
second chance, but now that she’s sitting right across from me, I know there’s
no way in hell I’m going to let her go again.

5 out of 5 stars!!
I am a sucker for 2nd chance romances and this one knocked it out of the park! (Baseball pun intended) :)
Landon and Harper were close in high school and then drifted apart while she became a mom and he followed his baseball career. Their reuniting was perfectly sweet and sexy with some help from Simon and Bridget - from British Bedmate - and I couldn't have enjoyed the story anymore!
Landon has never not loved Harper and Harper is fully devoted to being the best mom possible! I think I loved every page of this book. There were some heartbreaking moments, but there were also some laugh out loud moments. The relationships were ones everyone would love to have.
The realness of these characters kept me turning the pages and hoping for the best! I can't say enough how great this read was and I only hope everyone else can enjoy it, too.
SEXY SCOUNDREL
BY RAISA GREYWOOD
Carlina Perez is in way over her head. Unexpectedly jobless
and fostering an exotic pet with an insatiable appetite, this pastry chef needs
a new gig faster than she can whip up a batch of scones. But when she’s tapped to serve as the
personal chef to a haughty tabloid regular, she only considers the job out of
sheer desperation. After all, Giorgio Acardi may be filthy rich and
intoxicatingly handsome, but he’s also a first class scoundrel.
Giorgio Acardi has it all:
money, fame, an endless string of beautiful companions, and the respect
of his colleagues and rivals. From the outside looking in, his life is perfect.
So perfect, in fact, that he’s even got his eye on a new personal chef. She’s
talented and gorgeous, and it shouldn’t make a difference whether she hates him
or not as long as she does the job. But there’s something about Carlina that
Giorgio just can’t resist, and he hasn’t enjoyed success by backing down from a
challenge.
