A BOY LIKE YOUNA Contemporary Romance-Stand AloneScheduled to release: March 3, 2017GoodreadsAmazon iBooks Barnes and Noble Kobo
BLURB:They say everyone’s a superhero to someone. I’m not sure who I’m supposed
to save, but I know who saved me.

We were kids. His name was Christopher. And up until the day he pulled me
from death’s grip, he was nothing more than a boy I felt sorry for. In a
blink of an eye, he became the only person who made me feel safe.

And then he disappeared.

Now I’m seventeen. I’m not a kid anymore. I haven’t been for years. While
death didn’t take me that day, the things that happened left me with
scars—the kind that robbed me of everything I once loved and drove me into
darkness. But more than anything else, that day—and every day since—has
taken away my desire to dream.

I wasn’t going to have hope. I wouldn’t let myself wish. Those things—they
weren’t for girls like me. That’s what I believed…until the new boy.

He’s nothing like the old boy. He’s taller and older. His hair is longer,
and his body is lean—strong and ready for anything. I don’t feel sorry for
him. And sometimes, I hate him. He challenges me. From the moment I first
saw him standing there on the baseball field, he pushed me—his eyes
constantly questioning, doubting…daring. Still, something about him—it
feels…familiar.

He says his name is Wes. But I can’t help but feel like he’s someone else.
Someone from my past. Someone who’s come back to save me.

This time, though, he’s too late. Josselyn Winters, the girl he once knew,
is gone. I am the threat; I am my worst enemy. And he can’t save me from
myself.

Southern Desire release blitz, Kaylee Ryan

I voluntarily received an advanced review copy of this book and chose to review it.

I loved Southern Desire. Aaron is a great character and I loved getting to know him and his lady. I loved how he went about wooing her, even if she wasn't as confident as I would've liked. I also loved the amount Evan and McKinley were in the book, giving it a real family feel. Aaron is sweet and protective while Whitney simply makes him happy. I loved reading about their relationship and seeing it develop and I'd love to see what happens after the end of this book. I'm hoping we'll get to see them again when this series comes to an end. A great read worthy of your time!

Meet Max Kent & Add Fake Fiancée  to your TBR: http://bit.ly/2jh5mIR




Blurb

A new standalone romance from Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author Ilsa Madden-Mills...

They say nothing compares to your first kiss,
But our first kiss was orchestrated for an audience.
Our second kiss…that one was REAL.
He cradled my face like he was terrified he’d f*ck it up.
He stared into my eyes until the air buzzed.
Soft and slow, full of sighs and little laughs,
He inhaled me like I was the finest Belgian chocolate,
And he'd never get another piece.
A nip of his teeth, his hand at my waist...
And I was lost.
I forgot he was paying me to be his fake fiancée.
I forgot we weren’t REAL.
Our kiss was pure magic, and before you laugh and say those kinds of kisses don’t exist…
Then you’ve never touched lips with Max Kent, the hottest quarterback in college history.

Get ready for breathtaking kisses and dreamy football players…

F word preorder/release blitz, Sandra Marton

I voluntarily received an advanced review copy of this book and chose to review it.

I couldn't get into this book. The writing style is all over the place, with the main character constantly going off on tangents and getting distracted. It does not make for smooth or easy reading. There are too many boring details and takes too long to get to the point. I liked that this book was told from a male point of view but he constantly stresses he's a nice guy but proceeds to talk about his assistant, and love interest, in such a derogatory manner I couldn't stomach it. I'm sorry but this book in no way did it for me. I also thought the boss/assistant thing as well as fake fiancé concept is tired and overdone.

Everything in between release blitz, Melissa Toppen

I voluntarily received an advanced review copy of this book and chose to review it.

I quite enjoyed this book. Babe is a likeable character, at the start I wasn't sure that was going to happen but it did. I also liked Rae. I liked how their relationship developed, even if it was a little too easy and skimped on the important details ie. sexy time details. I also really liked Aiden and can't wait for his story. I'm not usually a big angst person but I would've liked to have seen a tiny bit more, as I said, I felt everything was a bit too easy, but it was an enjoyable book.

Trick release blitz, Laramie Briscoe

I voluntarily received an advanced review copy of this book and chose to review it.

I loved this book. I loved how open Trick and Hadley are about everything and that the drama is kept to a minimum, for the most part. I also love Trick and Riley's relationship. I did think the issue with Hadley's ex husband was a little out of left field, especially as it didn't kick up too much drama and that the storyline with G could've been amped up, but all in all, a great book.

Both he and his mate race against time to keep the people of the city safe, despite homesick children, disastrous dinners, Meryn’s wacky revenge plans and an unexpected pairing.

Bewitched & Bewildered Series Character Interview
provided by Alanea Alder

I know people wanted to ask about what Ryuu is, but I figured that’s a big spoiler and I also thought Ryuu would probably want to stay in the shadows and let Meryn take the spotlight in an interview. 
*Buxom J fidgets nervously until all her guests are seated.*
Buxom J:  “Hi guys, I want to thank you for taking time to visit with me before your trip to Noctem Falls.  I know that you’re super busy fighting ferals and packing for your trip but inquiring minds want to know.”
*points to the large group of women behind her holding various signs, one shouts out “Ryuu, I want to have your baby!”*
“Just for those out there who don’t know what’s going on.  We’re here talking with Aiden, Meryn, Gavriel and Elizabeth from Lycanoia, the shifter city in the Bewitched and Bewildered world of Alanea Alder. ”
Buxom J:  “For those who don’t know you, can you give a brief bio on yourselves?”
Meryn: shrugs Not much to say, I had a pretty lame childhood, went to college, started my own online security company then met Aiden. Then things got nuts.
Aiden winces Sorry love, you know I never meant for you to be in danger.
Meryn: It’s more fun this way, plus lots of sex.
Aiden eyes widen: Right. Coughs Anyway. I was raised in Lycaonia and always wanted to be a unit warrior like my father. I was made Unit Commander about six hundred years ago and have been leading the men ever since.
Beth shaking her head: I was raised in Noctem Falls, but I call Lycaonia home now.
Gavriel: I don’t remember much from my childhood, but I do know that my home now is with Beth.
Buxom J:  “The most burning question on everyone’s mind is….is there any update on Keelan?”  You can evade this question or any if you want if it’ll spoil anything.
Meryn shakes her head sadly Not yet, though he seems to be having a blast teasing Sascha.
Buxom J: “ Next questions are for Meryn, your fans want to know more about what you did before you met Aiden.  We know you did something that involved computers and security.  Can you go into more detail?  And,”  *sends a worried glance to Aiden and then speaks really fast and softly* “did you have any romantic relationships prior to Aiden?”
Meryn: I basically lived in a crappy little apartment. I could afford better, but I didn’t feel like moving, too much work. I’d wake up, write some code, eat a hot pocket, then go back to checking in with my clients, eat another hot pocket, watch some Doctor Who then go to bed. Bathing happened in there somewhere too,,,, sometimes.
I didn’t date much, because I hate small talk and first dates are always small talk. The few boyfriends I did have thought I was weird.
Buxom J:  “Now some fun baby questions!  When are you due?  Are you planning on finding out the gender?  Do you have any baby names picked out?”
Aiden brightens Adam thinks she’ll be due sometime in August. We’ve decided we don’t want to know the baby’s sex, we’d like for it to be a surprise. I’m personally hoping for a boy.
Meryn: It’s a girl. Meryn 2.0
Aiden: It will be a boy and I’m thinking it needs to be an A name, after me.
Meryn: If it’s a boy let’s name him Doctor. Then people will go, Doctor Who! That would be awesome!
Buxom J: “Aiden, how do you think you’re going to cope while Meryn’s in labor?”
Aiden: I have been reading What to Expect When You’re Expecting. It’s a human book about babies. I feel fairly confident I will be immensely helpful.
Buxom J:  “Beth… is it okay if I call you Beth? Do you plan on shifting so you can cuddle up with the wee one?”  *turns to grin at the other woman*
Beth:  I think I’d be better off staying human so I can remind Meryn to feed the poor thing.
Meryn: Ryuu will feed her.
Buxom J:  “Ok ladies….this is an important question….favorite Doctor?”  “Favorite enemy?”  *adjusts her Fourth Doctor t-shirt and winks*
Beth: I’m a fourth doctor fan myself. Favorite enemies, the daleks
Meryn: I’m a ten/eleven girl. I thought Matt Smith was too carefree coming off of Tenant. But I went back and watched his seasons, and the moments where he’s serious gives me chills, its like you can see Tenant peeking through. My favorite enemy right now is Missy. I’d love to be her BFF.
Beth eyes Meryn worriedly
Buxom J:  “And if you had to match up Alpha House residents with Doctor Who characters, who would correspond with who?”
Meryn: Hmm. Colton is Mickey…
Beth: Meryn! He is not, he’s really Eleven.
Meryn nods. Okay I’ll give you that. Then Aiden can be Ten, Gavriel can be Nine She turns to 
Beth.  You are definitely Sarah Jane and I’m a Martha/Amy mix.
Buxom J:  “Beth, are you excited to be heading home?  What are you looking forward to most about being home?”
Beth: I’m really hoping Sebastian will be able to add to my wardrobe, I need some new pieces for spring.
Buxom J:  “Gavriel, are you nervous about meeting Beth’s Dads, their squire and her uncle?”
Gavriel: Not in the slightest. Though I may have some questions for her guards. I would love to know how they kept her alive.
Beth: Gavriel!
Gavriel shrugs.
Buxom J:  “How long has it been since any of you, besides Meryn, has been in Noctem Falls?”
Aiden: I’ve never been.
Gavriel: Over five thousands years I believe
Beth:  I was there last year. I had to return home to heal after falling out of that dratted window.
Gavriel shudders
Buxom J:  “You know, Gavriel, this does afford you the perfect opportunity to brainstorm with her Dads about what to do when Beth becomes pregnant.  Or do you already have precautions in place?  How do you think you’ll cope?”
Gavriel: I think the safest option is to keep Beth in bed.
Everyone turns to stare.
Beth I will not be in bed nearly ten months!
Meryn If I had my laptop, that doesn’t sound too bad.
Beth laughs: Ryuu would have to drag you out of bed to get you to shower.
Meryn nods True
Buxom J:  “If you had a free day with no responsibilities and the only thing you had to do was enjoy yourselves, what would all of you do?”
Aiden: I’d want to spend the day with Meryn doing whatever she wanted.
Beth: I’d want to go on a shopping spree.
Gavriel: I am like Aiden, I would simply wish to be near my mate.
Meryn: I’d love to party with strippers at DragonCon.
Everyone turns to stare and Aiden growls
Meryn: What? You’d be there since you wanted to spend the day with me.
Buxom J:  “If you could have unlimited storage of one thing, what would it be?”
Aiden: Ammunition.
Beth: Clothes
Gavriel: Books
Meryn: My geek stuff collection
Buxom J:  “Aiden, does Meryn make you clean the bathroom, more specifically the toilet, as a punishment?”  *glances back at the peanut gallery where snickers can be heard*
Aiden: No, thank goodness. Ryuu cleans for the house.
Buxom J:  “Is Ryuu traveling with you?”
Meryn nodding. Yup!
Buxom J:  “And how are you traveling?”
Beth: Darian will open a fae portal for use. We’ll simply step through and be on the outskirts of the city.
If by car Buxom J:  “Road trip!  Are you stopping by the Duck In for snacks?  If so what ones?”
Buxom J: “And what’s on the radio?”
Buxom J:  “How many warriors are accompanying you?”
Aiden: We’ll be meeting with the Eta Unit when we arrive, so in traveling it will just be myself, Gavriel and Ryuu.

Well, folks, I think that’s all we have time for today.  We need to let these folks get back to saving the paranormal world.  *turns back to her guests* Thank you again for joining me for the interview.  We look forward to reading about the rest of your adventures in My Guardian by Alanea Alder.
