Book Review: Perfectly Imperfect by Harper Sloan #Giveaway

Willow Tate lost the one person in her life that loved her unconditionally. Now all she has left is a "family" of bullies who degrade her all damn day and night. (Grrrrrrr.) Their actions and words combined with her own guilt push Willow into depression and self loathing. It's not until years later when she hits rock bottom that she makes the decision to change. Though she is well on her way to having a better attitude towards herself, she just doesn't believe it when movie star Kane Masters shows an interest in her. This must be some passing fling or joke, because what would a guy like him see in a girl like her? Everything.

If you've read any of Harper's Corps Security or Hope Town books, you should know that this book really isn't anything like those. And that is NOT a bad thing, at all. You will still get hella hot sexy times and a swoon-worthy Hero, but there is a much deeper emotional level to this story that I think almost everyone will be able to connect with.

This book hit close to home for me as I am sure it will for many other women. No matter our size, shape, color, etc., so many of us struggle with self image issues. For myself personally, I have been struggling with weight and body image since I was in eighth grade. Heck, maybe even earlier than that when I was in fourth grade and a girl in my class asked me why my butt stuck. (Because my ass is awesome, bitch).I hated my body back in middle school, high school and into my twenties. It's not until now in my mid-thirties that i am finally comfortable in my own skin. Mostly.

Book Review: Bleeding Love (Hope Town #2) by Harper Sloan #Giveaway

It's been such a long time since I've read the Corps Security books that it took me a minute to remember Beck and how much I loved him. He's probably one of my favorites from that series. Could his son, Liam, live up to his dad? Oh hell yeah he could!

Liam Beckett has grown up watching the pure love between his parents and he knows that one day he will have that for himself. One day seems closer within reach when Megan is brought into their group of friends. He knows she's been through hell and isn't ready for him yet, but that's OK. He'll wait.

Three years ago, single mom Megan lost her husband and best friend. The pain of that loss sent her to a very dark place and she hasn't fully crawled out of it yet. She knows Liam wants her, that it could be something so  much more, but she just can't open herself up to potential pain again. But after one memorable night, Liam is done with waiting. He's ready to bring his girl back to life.

Book Review: Unexpected Fate (Hope Town #1) by Harper Sloan

The kids of the sexy alphas from the Corps Security team are all grown up and this is the start of their stories. We remember Cohen Cage as the boy who always wore a superhero cape and was obsessed with is father's below the belt jewelery. He might have been cute as a boy, but as a man Cohen is downright sexy. And Dani, daughter to Axel, has been in love with him since she was a little girl. Cohen cares for her deeply, that is obvious, but has been avoiding the mutual attraction for years. The timing just has never been right... but if keeps waiting for the perfect timing, he just may miss out on the best thing in his life.

I could not wait to get started on this spinoff series and see how the kids of those sexy men would fair. Especially Cohen, who was always a hoot as a boy. Now he's all grown up, and I mean REALLY grown up, and although extremely hot, he is also extremely frustrating. Stupid, stubborn man, ignoring what has been right in front of him for years. Well, Dani is sick and tired of waiting for him to wake up and take action so now she is going after her man. I admired her strength and determination in going after what she wants. I don't think Cohen ever stood a chance.

Cover Reveal: Beck (Corps Security #3) by Harper Sloan

DEE

I’ve always been good at wearing masks. Not letting anyone see the real me. I’m content being the happy-go-lucky best friend. The strong willed boss. The independent woman who doesn’t need a man.

But the truth is I’m just as broken as the rest of you. I’m terrified that all it will take is one person to make all my carefully constructed walls crumble into fine dust. So I guard my heart with everything I have. Determined to never let anyone get close enough to hurt me again.

All is perfect until HE walks into my life. No…  he doesn’t just walk. He struts his good-looking, sex-oozing self right into my space and demands that I see HIM. Making me want what I know I can’t have.

So I did the only thing I know how to do.

I run.

But he just won’t let me go.
