Blog Tour + Book Review | Married Into Love by Rochelle Paige (@RochellePaige1)










BLURB:
What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay there...
Alec Rourke wasn’t going to waste a night out on the Strip, not even if his friends skipped their own co-ed bachelor-and-ette party. But he never expected to find a plus-one for their wedding—his new wife.

And sometimes you find yourself married to a stranger...
Alessia Valenti was having the worst day ever. Fired from her job. An eviction notice on her door. Her sister dragged her out to blow off some much-needed steam. Only she hadn’t planned on a stop at the wedding chapel with a hot hockey player.

Married Into Love can be read as a standalone. Each book in the Bachelorette Party series features a different couple.

REVIEW

Hello Vegas!

Image result for elvis vegas wedding

Alec went to Vegas to attend a co-ed bachelor and bachelorette party and a wedding, but apparently, fate has a different thing planned for him.

Alessia is having a hard time in her life, she just lost her job and she was just about to lose her home as well. Her sister convinced her to go out with her, just to chill out and forget their problems for the night, what she didn't expect was meeting her white knight in the bar!

And to wake up married to him! Yay!

Nevertheless, he seemed to convince her to give their sham marriage a try, and her sister was telling her the same thing as well. Will she go with the flow and give in?

I like Alec. Indeed, he made sure that he got the girl and he would do anything to make her stay. He was a gentleman, in fairness. He didn't do anything Alessia didn't want to. But he took care of everything, that Alessia wouldn't worry about anything at all. He treated her like a princess.

Alessia has been taking care of everything for everyone, and it is just fair that someone will take care of her as well. She has a very big heart. Her sister on the other hand, I didn't know what to think of her at first when she married Alessia off, but she meant well. Her personality is opposite to the meekness of her sister, and I wish that she'd have her happy ending as well.

It's a fast, easy on the heart, sexy, fairytale-ish, insta-love romantic that you can enjoy in one sitting.

Rating: 4/5

EXCERPT

“I still can’t believe how fast all you guys fell for your women. You. Andrew. Jason.” I took a shot of vodka, and poured us both another one. “Not a single one of you were into the whole relationship thing at all, and then bam! You’ve got eyes for only one woman and a possessive streak a mile wide when it comes to her.”

Ryan took the vodka from me and gulped it down, shrugging his shoulders. “When you meet the one, you’ll know. Just don’t make the same mistake that I did with Tamara and let her get away from you.”

“That’s another thing all three of you have in common.” I chuckled and shook my head. “I’m not the kind of guy to fall head over heels for a woman at first sight like you guys did. But if hell froze over”—I paused to glare at Ryan as he burst into a fit of laughter—“and I get all riled up over some chick I barely know, I won’t make the same mistake you all did. No walking away from her, even if I think she belongs to someone else like Andrew did with Josie. No letting her run from me because she thinks I’m a douchebag who hits on a woman all night long, only to get up close and personal with some other chick while she’s in the bathroom, like what happened with Jason and Cee-Cee. And I sure as shit won’t let her sneak out on me the morning after like you did with Tamara. I’ll exhaust the hell out of her so leaving me is the last thing on her mind.”

We reversed roles, and it was Ryan who was glaring at my reminder of how he’d fucked up with Tamara and lost contact with her for months. Then he narrowed his eyes at me, and a smug grin tilted his lips. I shifted in my seat, uncomfortable with how pleased he suddenly looked.

“What?” I asked sharply, and the limo got quiet as Jason’s childhood friends stopped talking and turned to look at Ryan and me.

“Nothing.” His grin turned into a full-fledged, shit-eating grin.

“Bullshit, dude. What the fuck’s up with you? You went from being totally pissed at me to grinning like you know something I don’t. Don’t be a douche. Fill me in on the secret.”

“Karma, man. She’s a bitch,” he chuckled.

“You’re gonna have to do better than that,” I growled.

“That’s the second time I’ve heard you say that hell would have to freeze over for you to fall for a woman. And now you’ve paired it with bragging about how you’d handle it better than we all did.”

“Dude,” one of Jason’s friends drawled. “Talk about tempting fate. You’ve got to have brass balls to put shit like that out in the universe and think it’s not gonna come back to bite you in the ass.”

Hockey players tended to be a superstitious lot, but I hadn’t expected the wealthy, preppy guys Jason grew up with to believe in stuff like karma. Not that I grew up poor—my parents did very well for themselves, but they weren’t in the same league as Jason’s family and their closest friends.

“It is,” Ryan agreed. “And I’m going to enjoy every second of watching you squirm when it happens.”

Aubrey wanted to change from her old ways. She used to be a serial dater, she’d love the rush of the early stages of a relationship, but once the rush is gone, and she’d leave them. It took one awful pregnancy scare to make her change her ways. She decided to make school her first priority, and stop dating. She was successful in doing so, until she bumps into Luka. Her math tutor.

I could hear his accent, and swoon! Luka Ivanovich is one hell of an alpha male. I wonder why his ex-girlfriend didn’t see how great this guy is and managed to break his heart into pieces. His past mistake made him wary of the girls surrounding him. Aubrey’s past and record made him wonder if she’s any relationship material. He decided to step back, think about it first, before he ask her out. It didn’t matter whether he was completely drawn to her, or he was a bad case of a walking blue ball. His heart had just mended from being broken.

Everything was worth the wait – their first kiss, their first time together – they didn’t rush the relationship, although Luka was dying to have her. Aubrey was willing to wait, to prove, perhaps to him or to herself that this was more than just sex. As for Luka, he needed to prove that what they have is more than just a rebound for him. After all, he had been with his ex far too long.

So, they tried to take it slow, slow enough until both of them were ready to experience spontaneous combustion because of the chemistry that surrounds them. The air was thick with sexual tension, even I was afraid I’d get blue balls!!! (LOL). But the moment they finally gave in to their attraction – all the wait was worth it.

Okaaay – Luka might be overbearing sometimes, especially with his caveman ways – but he’s making up with it by means of f**kpology, and if him his alpha male tendencies would get him in trouble with her, it was ALMOST worth it. The trust issues lingered for a bit, and almost destroyed their relationship. But thank goodness, they have friends who are ready to get their heads out of their a**es, or else, all those hard work will be put into waste.

This is my third book by Rochelle Paige, and the third book of the Blythe College Series – so far, I’m yet to be disappointed. She gave me another engaging read, sexy and romantic. You can’t help but love the characters despite their imperfections, and I was so glad to see the old ones are living their HEAs.

One thing though… I don’t think I can look at the grapefruit the same way again after reading this!

Release Date: December 20, 2013

Alexa is just your average college junior, attending classes and piloting Mile High Club charter flights.

Her plans to focus on school hit a bit of a snag when she meets bad-boy Drake Bennett and he sets his sights on making her his own.

Drake transferred to Blythe College for the rugby team, not for a new assortment of college girls. He's sexy and cocky, and he attracts women like moths to a flame. When he meets Alexa, Drake knows he's met his match. She tries to resist him, but Drake isn't used to taking no for an answer.

Warning: 18+ due to sexual content
