Ain’t Doin’ It by Lani Lynn Vale

Jul 06, 2018 | Rita

Today we have the release blitz for AIN’T DOIN’ IT by Lani Lynn Vale. Check it out and get your copy now!

Ain't Doin' It

Title: AIN’T DOIN’ IT
Series: Simple Man
Author: Lani Lynn Vale 
Genre: Romantic Suspense 
Release: July 6, 2018
Model: Lan Daviau
Photographer: Furiousfotog

Coke Solomon has lived a full life.

He’s a retired army drill sergeant, so he is more than used to getting his way.

And if he can’t have his way?
Well, let’s just say that’s never happened before…

At least not until Cora Maldonado walks into his life, demanding he fall in line, or she’ll find a way to make his life hell.

He finds out fast that Cora marches to the beat of her own drum, and a lot of times that drum takes her farther away rather than closer to where he feels she needs to be.

He can’t stand it.

He wants her, and he has to have her.

It doesn’t matter what she’s twenty years younger than him, and has a father that would rather see him dead than have his baby girl anywhere near him. Nor does it matter that his ex-wife is highly offended that she’s been replaced with a much younger woman.

Despite the odds stacking against them, he’ll fight for what he wants.
His ex-wife, her father, and their age difference be damned.

My Thoughts

Cora has moved from her parents house because she is trying to be independent. It’s not that she isn’t but for her she needed to take that step. If not she would have stayed living with them. She doesn’t have the wild streak a lot of the other Free kids have. She super smart, artistic, and just wants to quietly live her life. Except her neighbor decides to work on his truck in the middle of the night. One look and we was gone.

Both Cora and Coke are wonderful characters and well written. I love that Coke never sees Cora as different even though she tells him about her problem. See, Cora’s birth mother left her in a car when she was young for several hour. That left Cora with a couple of issues.  Coke doesn’t even notice they exist. Cora is just Cora and he loves her. We once again get to see previous characters since Gabe is Cora’s dad and I love that we see her brother as well. All in all this was another blockbuster!

If you're looking for a Bible that helps you under If you're looking for a Bible that helps you understand your identity in Christ and God’s purpose for your life, the *Life in Christ Bible* is a must-have! 🙏📖 As someone who's recently been diving deeper into Bible study, I’ve found this Bible incredibly insightful and inspiring.

✨ One of my favorite parts is how it emphasizes that our value comes from who we are in God’s eyes, not from what we do. Each book begins with a helpful intro—key details like date, main idea, and a timeline outline make everything easy to follow.

❤️ Plus, the words of Jesus are written in red, and I love the "I Am" sidebars with extra insights and cross-references for deeper study.

And can we talk about the quotes from Charles Spurgeon and the historical charts?! 🙌 They really help put the New Testament into a broader context. Oh, and the maps at the back are a visual treat for anyone who, like me, loves seeing the geographical routes and locations come to life.

This Bible has been a game-changer for my spiritual growth, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to deepen their faith. 💙

I am not normally a coffee drinker at all but when I am not normally a coffee drinker at all but when I do it is always hot coffee. I rarely, if ever, drink iced coffee. There is just something about it that rubs me the wrong way.

What about you? Which do you prefer?
