New Release Review + Giveaway: Saving Ren by Lesley Jones is LIVE!

Saving Ren by Lesley Jones is LIVE!  Don't miss this hot and heartfelt age-gap romance.  Check out my spoiler-free review below and a link to Lesley's signed paperback giveaway below. 

Saving Ren by Lesley Jones cover
Synopsis:

LAUREN

I met him on the most devastating night of my life.

After twenty-four years, I discovered there's more than one way to break your marriage vows. The life I thought would always be mine was over, and and I’m now about to face it as a single woman in her forties.


I need a job, somewhere to live, and time to get to know this new version of me.


What I don't need is to be saved by Gabe, the gorgeous, thirty-five-year-old, blue-eyed God I met on a drunken girls' night out.


Do I?



GABE


The night I met her, something shifted inside me.


Burned and scarred in the past by a short-lived marriage, I like my relationships with women drama free and strictly confined to the bedroom. My focus and priority are on being a single parent to my daughter.


But I’m weary of the one and done life. I want something more, something real, with someone who sees past the way I look, beyond my reputation and doesn’t care about the worth of my family’s business.


What I don’t need is to be fighting to prove to Lauren it’s not me, her ex, or her past she needs saving from…it’s herself.


But I just can’t stay away.


Note: this book is a rewritten and expanded version of the previously published title, Saviour, book one.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Lesley Jones author image


Lesley was born and raised in a small working-class town in Essex, just outside of East London. She’s married with three sons and in 2006 they all moved to the other side of the world, settling on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, about fifty kilometers outside of Melbourne, Australia.

Lesley is currently ‘a stay at home mum’, but in the past, she has worked at ‘good old Mark & Spencer’ for thirteen years and as a teacher’s assistant.As well as writing, Lesley loves to read and has been known to get through four or five books a week, when she’s not writing that is.

Her other interests are watching her boys play football… the round ball version. She’s happy to admit to being an addict of social media and owes a lot to her Facebook and Twitter family in promoting her book. Lesley is also rather partial to a glass or bottle of wine, a nicely chilled Marlborough Sav Blanc being her favorite.

Being a born and raised Essex girl, she will happily admit being a big fan of spray tans, manis, pedis, and is regularly, waxed, tinted, and sculpted, although she doesn’t own a pair of white stilettos.

Pure and sweet and untouched.

Dare he love her?

She was the only light in his dark, twisted world. His ticket straight to hell.

REVIEW: Don't Kiss the Bride by Carian Cole

Check out my spoiler-free review of Don't Kiss the Bride by Carian Cole.  This age-gap romance is not to be missed.  You can read it for FREE using Kindle Unlimited.

Don't Kiss the Bride book cover


Synopsis:

I guess you could say I was a damsel in distress, and he was my knight in shining armor.


But more accurately, I was a girl with a lot of bad luck, and he was a guy with a lot of muscles and tattoos.

Jude “Lucky” Lucketti wasn’t just a sexy, brooding construction worker. He was my own personal hero who seemed to be in all the right places at the right times. Like when my car broke down and I needed a ride home, and when I face planted on the sidewalk right in front of him and had to be taken to the emergency room.

Those weren’t exactly my best moments, but they were his.

We became friends, and it didn’t matter that he was sixteen years older than me. We had a lot in common—like our love of old rock music and vintage fast cars, and our aversion to relationships.

When he approached me with a crazy idea to help me out, I couldn’t say no.

The arrangement was supposed to be temporary. A marriage on paper and nothing else.

It should’ve been easy, but it wasn’t.

Because here I am, eighteen years-old, still in high school, and married to a man I was never supposed to fall in love with.

We had just one rule—no kissing the bride.

But we broke that rule, and it sealed our fate forever.

Spoiler-free Review: 

Don't Kiss the BrideDon't Kiss the Bride by Carian Cole
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I've heard such incredible things about Carian Cole's books for so long. I finally took the plunge and read her latest release, Don't Kiss the Bride. This heartfelt age-gap romance pulled on my heartstrings and wouldn't let go. 

Don't Kiss the Bride was filled with so much heart and real and raw emotion, making this book unputdownable. I couldn't get enough of Jude and Skyler's slow-burning angsty relationship. I loved these characters! 

Carian is an incredible storyteller. I was so happy to find a new author to love. My heart is full after reading Don't Kiss the Bride. I literally one-clicked three of her other books after finishing this one. 

Meet the Author:
