Stay (Wags #2) By: Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy

     Hailey Taylor Emery has a hunch that her favorite client at Fetch - - an anonymous virtual assistant service - - is actually hockey star Matt Erikkson.
     Although it's against the rules for her to check his file, she's 95% sure she spends at least part of each day texting with her lifelong crush and catering to his every need. Still nursing a wounded heart thanks to her recent breakup, Hailey is perfectly content with some harmless online flirting...until she has to meet her client. Face to face. Cue: utter panic.
      Matt Eriksson is no stranger to heartbreak. He's still not over the destuction of his marriage, and it sucks to be the only guy on the team who knows the truth - - that hockey and long-term relationships aree a toxic mix. He barley sees his kids, and dealing with his ex makes him feel insane. The only person in his life who seems to understand is someone who won't show her pretty face.
      But it's nothing that a pair of fourth row hockey seats can't fix. Hailey can't resist the offer. Matt can't resist Hailey. Good thing he doesn't have to. Fire up the kiss cam!

     I loved reading Stay, it was such a good read.

Elijah Wolfe (Wolfe Brothers #1) By: Sandi Lynn

      When Elijah steps inside the courtroom, things happen. Opposing counsel cringes and the judges take in a deep breath because they know what they're in for. They have held Elijah in contempt more times than he could count, and he's never lost a case. They don't call him the "Wolfe" for nothing. He's decisive, aggressive and strong, both in the courtroom and in the bedroom. Elijah likes order and control, and everyone knows it. Everyone except for Aspen Michaelson, the new associate Elijah's mother hired to work at their firm. Her interview wasn't the first time Elijah laid eyes on her and her sexy body. The two shared one magical night together in Hawaii. They were two strangers who only knew each other's first names. She left in the middle of the night without a word. He never forgave her for that. He was the one who always left, not the other way around. Now that she worked for him, he would do everything in his power to make her pay for that night, to show her he was the boss both in the office and in the bedroom. But he found himself losing all control around her and her quirky ways and he didn't know how to stop it.
      After her father passed away, Aspen moved from Connecticut to New York City where her sister and his husband lived. Working at a prestigious law firm in New York had always been a dream of hers. Caitlin Wolfe made that dream come true when she hired Aspen to work at her top law firm. Little did she know, Elijah Wolfe, the man she had one amazing night with in Hawaii, was her son, senior partner, and future CEO of Wolfe & Associates. He looked just as sexy in New York as he did in Hawaii, but he was different. He was cold and calculating. Not the man who seduced Aspen and brought her back to his suite. He was her boss, and he was setting her up to fail. The one thing he didn't know about her was that she played the game just as good as he did, if not better. Aspen needed to stay in control of both her body and her mind, but he made it very difficult with his tailored designer suits and the cologne he wore that sent Aspen's pheromones into overdrive.
      Let the games begin...

      After reading some less than stellar books from Sandi Lynn Elijah Wood brought me back to why I loved reading Sandi Lynn's books. I could not put this book down and it will definitely be one that I will be reading again. Once again the only drawback for this whole thing is, the seemed to go by way too quickly. But other than that this book was great.

Enemies By: Tijan

     
     Stone Reeves was her neighbor, and Dusty has hated him since the sixth grade. Gorgeous and charismatic, he became the town's football god, while Dusty became the town's invisible girl. He went to a Division 1 school for football, while her father was fired by his father. His team won the National Championship, while her mother died the same day. He was a first round pick for the NFL...while Dusty had the worst decision of her life.
      Now Dusty's in Texas trying to pick up the pieces of her life. But Stone is here. Stone is everywhere.
      It doesn't matter that disaster has struck her life again. It doesn't matter that he's the one trying to console her. It doesn't matter that he's the nation's newest football obsession.
      Because for Dusty, he always has been and always will be her enemy.

      When I first started reading Enemies I wasn't really into it. The only reason I kept reading is because one of my favorites books of Tijan I actually didn't like at first. It wasn't until I had started making a dent in the book that I really started to enjoy it. So given that this has happened before I thought, why not keep reading. And while I did start to get into Enemies after a while it wasn't with the same interest as Tijan's other books. I did ultimately finish reading Enemies and in the end I found it to just be an okay read. Did I enjoy reading it? Kind of, sort of. Would I read it again? Probably not.

Needing Nevaeh (Rockers' Legacy) By: Terri Anne Browning

  
     Nevaeh doesn't realize Braxton will give up everything to be with her. When Braxton lost his leg, he had thought he lost everything. Then he met Nevaeh. She gave Braxton a reason to wake up in the morning, turned into his best firend, became the voice of sanity when the world was nothing but chaos. And now, with one annoucement at a party he didn't even want to attend, everything Braxton had planned for the two of them could be destroyed.
     A mistake Braxton made when he was too young to know better has come back to haunt him, and it could cost him the one person who matters most. Braxton will burn this place to the ground before he gives up the only good thing in his world.

     After having read Mia's story (the first book in this series) I knew I wanted to read more. And with the brief introduction we got of Nevaeh's and Braxton's chemistry in that book I knew I was going to like this book. And I was not wrong I could not put down Needing Nevaeh and I managed to finished it in one day. I am loving this series just as much as the series this spin-off is based on and I cannot wait to read more.
