December 4, 2015 by Katie, Back Porch Reader

**Review Copy generously provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.**

The Blurb:

New York City, Late Summer 2009

cover-harpermiller-sweetesttabooLike many single women who reside in the city that never sleeps, Micah Foster has had numerous encounters with undesirable men that make her want to renounce love. Just when she’s on the verge of calling it quits in her quest to find love and a sustainable relationship with a Dominant man, her friend Kisa requests her company for a girl’s night out at Spanxxx, a local fetish club. Both Kisa and Micah are seasoned submissive players in the BDSM lifestyle. Micah has been involved in the scene since her early twenties, but she has yet to meet a Dominant she meshes with and takes seriously. Now, at age thirty, she continues to search for a connection that repeatedly eludes her. Under duress, she crosses paths with Dominant Rick Thomas. Unusual and dire circumstances bring the pair together, and he’s exactly what Micah has been searching for.

ARC Review: Fish Stick Fridays (Half Moon Bay, book 1) by Rhys Ford

November 15, 2015 by Katie, Back Porch Reader

I was utterly blown away by the surprise gift of an ARC of this book from the author with my promise to provide an honest review.

Really, I might have squealed…and y’all, I don’t squeal.

Now, to be all professional and stuff…I can do that.

Wait…gimme a minute. Because I just have to say that I’ve been drooling over the blurb and cover ever since they were revealed. For me, a Rhys Ford book release is an advent with the days counted down in delightful anticipation.

Okay now…*cleansing breath*…the book and my thoughts:

The Blurb:

cover-FishStickFridays-RhysFordDeacon Reid was born bad to the bone with no intention of changing. A lifetime of law-bending and living on the edge suited him just fine—until his baby sister died and he found himself raising her little girl.

Staring down a family history of bad decisions and reaped consequences, Deacon cashes in everything he owns, purchases an auto shop in Half Moon Bay, and takes his niece, Zig, far away from the drug dens and murderous streets they grew up on. Zig deserves a better life than what he had, and Deacon is determined to give it to her.
