You’ve done what’s expected.
You’ve stayed in the “good girl” lane.
How’s that working for you?

If you have a chance at falling in love . . .
Will you take matters into your hands?
Kiss a stranger with wild abandon?
Throw caution to the wind along with your clothes?

Don’t think about the consequences.
Dive into the forbidden, the off-limits.
Be fearless.
Be wild.
Be unpredictable.
Be reckless.

***Each novella in the Reckless anthology is a never before published, swoon-worthy, standalone story by Mika Jolie, Kylie Stewart, P M Carson, and Sharla Lovelace.

Can a fling turn into something real?

When the world throws me a curveball, I run away from Chicago to Martha’s Vineyard.

Just for a few days of soul searching before returning to my regular life. 

Then I meet him.

Chance Santos.

A curious force draws me to him.

I don’t believe in insta-love or the myth of happily-ever-after.

But the chemistry between us is undeniable.

In his arms, I find passion, learn who I am, and who I want to be.

Logic says walk away.

We’re strangers.

Two ships passing in the night.

Our lives are too different.

The age gap too wide.

But I crave him.

His touch.

His kiss.

His presence.

Is one amazing weekend enough to be the start of something?

Should I flee again?

Or do I dare take this Chance?

My marriage only lasted three pathetic hours and forty-two worthless minutes.

I thought coming home would be uncomplicated, that I could start over.

Then he walked into my life.

Older. Wiser. Dangerous.

Grayson Turner gave me a night of absolute, toe-curling bliss.

That was supposed to be the end.

Only his rough edges cut me open, and I can feel again.

My marriage crumbled after I caught my ex-wife in a lie.

I’ve had enough of the BS and games that go along with love.

And then I caught sight of Gemma Castile standing in my house.

Instantly, she seeps under my skin.

She’s twenty-eight and I’m forty.

One night of reckless passion.

That’s all it was supposed to be.

Together, we ventured into the deep …

Drew Canelli likes his women the way he likes his martinis. 

Warm, sexy and in various flavors.   

Shaken or stirred, classic and swank, original or edgy. 

He loves them all. 

The dirtier the better.

All the pleasure with no ill effects. No interference. No dependency. 

Once satisfied, he leaves the glass empty. 

Every time. 

Until a fresh shiny label, unique in style and garnish, appears.

Rachel Daine.

Strong. Heady. Habit forming. One sip leaves Drew a staggering drunk.

Hooked and hung over, cold turkey is his only hope.

But this time, he can’t resist the potent mix that promises to bite him back.

*Dirty Martinis is a modern spin on the traditional cocktail.

Ava James might have lost her mind.

She definitely lost her job.

Quit, actually—over the phone—with a boss more intimidating than God, after finding out that he gave her promotion to a manipulative, scheming sleazebag.

Off the rails with rage, predictable, rigid, all-work-and-no-play Ava decides to let her wild side fly.

What work trip? A long weekend in the Caribbean sounds better.

And the broody but hot stranger she can’t seem to shake? He’s getting under her skin in a very tasty way.

Dominic West is a highly trained covert operative looking to avenge his brother's death, but he never imagined that dark path involving her.

Ava James.

The face he has tracked from afar for years, and the one person who showed his broken brother kindness.

She’s being set up to fall or to die, and he can’t let either happen. Ava wears a tough shell, but up close—dangerously close—he sees her.

All of her.

And now she’s suddenly someone he needs to protect as much as betray.

Title: The Boy Friend by Mika Jolie

Title: The Boy Friend

Author: Mika Jolie

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Published: April 25, 2017

According to the law of attraction, women and men can’t be friends.

Contrary to this myth, my friendship with Coriander Phillips does not rest on unrequited love or un-actualized lust. We’ve been inseparable since the day I pulled one of her pigtails and she punched me in the gut.

She’s hilarious, fun to hang out with. Together, we’re like peanut butter and jelly, spaghetti and meatballs, wings and beer. A match made in heaven.

She’s the bomb.

Did I mention she’s smokin’ hot? I’ve checked her out…maybe once or twice. Hey, I’m a guy.

Seriously, no awkwardness, no secret yearning for our relationship to escalate beyond the purely platonic. I’m the boy friend—the loyal shoulder she cries on, the dispenser of coffee, sympathy, hugs, advice, and affection with no expectations.

Until the invisible line between friends and lovers became blurry.

Now I want more. I want her.

All I have to do is convince her we can be more than friends. 

Right? 

If only it were that easy.

Mika Jolie is the bestselling author of the Martha’s Way series. She lives in New Jersey with her Happy Chaos—her husband and their energizer bunnies. A sports fanatic and a wine aficionado, she’s determined to balance it all and still write about life experiences and matters of the heart. Let’s face it, people are complicated and love can be messy. When she’s not weaving life and romance into evocative tales, you can find her on a hiking adventure, apple picking, or whatever her three men can conjure up.

Review

Mika is a new author for me, and I will read her again, no doubt. This book had me cracking up, it was witty, and fun, but at the core it had good heart.

I need to say that this is written from Dean's perspective. He is a player, but a player that is honest about being a player, a horn dog, a trouble maker, but he is also a devoted friend, through and through, and boy does he get what's coming to him. His best friend is Cori. She gives as good as she gets and keeps Dean on his toes. 

This story was well written,the characters were rich and lively, and the author makes you feel as if you are there, and part of the story, not simply reading words on a page. There was heartbreak, deception, redemption, romance and a HEA. I admit, Dean was a douchebag and ticked me off through a lot of the book. 

All in all, a fantastic book.
