The Tuesday teaser!

Look who decided to show up? (me!) Sorry about last Tuesday, but here we are again with Monday behind us and Friday already looming on the horizon. Yes!
     Speaking of Friday, I have another cover reveal coming up! This time for ROCK CANDY KISSES (3:AM Kisses #5) Annie's story! Yay!!! I can't wait to get this one to you. Just thinking about it gives me the warm fuzzies. I know a few of you especially are looking forward to Annie's story as much as I am. For those who don't quite remember Annie, she's Bryson and Holt's younger sister who happens to be deaf. Her story is close to my heart since my father and son are hard of hearing, both deaf in one ear and partial hearing in the other. I'm doing quite a bit of research for Rock Candy because I'm determined to get this right. I think you'll be pleased with how the story unfolds, delicately yet in an exciting manner that Annie is worthy of. 
     Book news! The Dragon and the Rose. I'm hanging out with the naughty Sector again. It's raining something awful on Paragon (no news there) and surprises abound around every corner. To quote Chloe Bishop, "Oh, what a wicked web we weave." Indeed, there are no truer words, especially when it comes to our Paragon peeps. The thing with any Celestra book is it takes more time than others to complete (simply because it's paranormal and takes place outside of the natural world—so many rules, demons and angels oh my!) It's smexy. Be warned.
    Other book news! Beautiful Illusions (Beautiful Oblivion #2) is coming together! Edits are underway and I have about two weeks until I tie a pretty little bow over the manuscript and toss it to the ground to use as a doorstop because that baby is done. I should have it in your hands by the end of the month. I'm toying with about 3 release dates right now and I'll let you know which I land on very, very soon. Can I just tell you how much I've swooned over Gavin Jackson??? Gavin is all man, and I can't wait until I can properly introduce you to him. (Or reintroduce as it were since we briefly met Gavin in Beautiful Oblivion.) Gavin and Demi's story is unique and the way the plot unfurls is unlike any story I've written before so I truly hope you'll enjoy it. 

On to the teasers!



    Beautiful Illusions (Beautiful Oblivion #2)

*Can be read as a standalone.(Demi’s POV)
“It’s pretty bad out there. I’m glad you’re inside.” His cut features make it hard to look away. Something about those hypnotic, glowing eyes magnetize me, and I’m sure every other woman, to him. “But you don’t look too prepared for what’s being billed as the snowstorm of the century.” He tilts in, inspecting me from head to toe and his sizzling gaze feels as if it’s tearing a fire line up my body. He’s not the type of man I’m usually paired with, but then, this is the first time I’m advancing to a bodily exchange for cash.
The Dragon and the Rose (Celestra Forever After #2) *Logan’s POV
(Logan and Gage after Ellis engages them both in a conversation about sex.) 

“Sounds painful.” Exactly how it’s going to feel when I push Ellis’s head through a plate glass window for bringing it up.Gage smirks at the idea. “Not when you do it right.”Looks like I’ll be pushing two heads through the window tonight. 

*(Side note: I had another tease all set to go, much longer and juicier but then realized how spoilery it was. Sorry!)

*See you Friday for the cover reveal of ROCK CANDY KISSES!Have a great week!

Cover reveal!


Hi all! Happy Friday! Here's a cover I'm more than happy to share with you for an upcoming book I have releasing in 2015. It's the second in the Sublime Casualty series entitled A SUBLIME ADDICTION. The fabulous Sarah Hansen is making the covers for this series and I'm more than happy to share them with you. (Click the cover to add to Goodreads!)


Isn't she pretty? Sarah has really outdid herself for this series.

Here's a little about the book:


A Sublime Addiction
Noah
I thought I knew what love was. I’ve had relationships, but those were nothing like what I have with Elle. She’s taken over my thoughts, taken control of my days—she owns my nights.
But something doesn’t sit right. Her family, her past—it’s like they don’t exist. I don’t want to dig. I don’t want to confirm anything that might prove me right. I’ve had enough to deal with over the past few years.
It’s time to move on with the girl of my dreams by my side.But then I do a little digging.And I before I know it I’m standing in a grave.

Elle
I didn’t come from money. I didn’t come from anything. When you spend your childhood invisible, you begin to believe that actions don’t matter—consequences don’t exist—and your past will never come back to haunt you.
Then I met Noah. He saw me. He made me feel important, special, and most of all real.
But Noah and I are a house of cards.The wind is picking up.The ground is shaking.It’s time for me to go.I could run, but deep down I could never quit Noah.
They say love is stronger than death. For Noah and Elle to survive, it had better be.
Don't forget to add it to Goodreads!
Have a great weekend!

The Wednesday Tease?!


Yikes! Sorry about forgetting that Tuesday actually follows Monday—but in my defense it was Labor Day and I enjoyed the last day of summer right down to the dregs. It was dreamy. I read. All. Day. Long. Bliss!!! Actually I read post 2 in the afternoon. Before that I took my parents to lunch since it was their 50th wedding anniversary. It was amazing and miraculous to see that people still get to hit that jaw-dropping milestone. I'm planning a big party for them later in the month so the afternoon was low-key but it still felt dreamlike. The day was set in a perfect warm summer haze so everything felt magical. I told my husband we both need to survive long enough to hit our 50th because it's on my bucket list. One of my sons agreed to take us to Chuck E. Cheese on that momentous day so it's all set. I might have to usurp him when the time comes. But I digress! 

Book news! I have another cover reveal coming soon (possibly Friday) stayed tuned! 

*BEAUTIFUL ILLUSIONS is done and in the hands of my editor and betas!!! Look for a release date soon. I'm thinking mid to end of September. 

*THE DRAGON AND THE ROSE is front burner! Yes! I'm finally back on Paragon full time. *Waves at all the handsome boys that the island has to offer* Lots of surprises, a few jaw dropping moments, and an ending you won't want to miss. I promise. :) 

*A THOUSAND STARRY NIGHTS  - Oh Aspen. Oh Carter. How I love your twisted love story. This is book 2 of The BURNING THROUGH GRAVITY series. *sigh* I cannot wait to dig in deep. I'm still writing scenes in this one, too and outlining like crazy. I have to say, I like Aspen as much as I liked Stevie.      

On to the teasers! 




Beautiful Illusions (Beautiful Oblivion #2) *Can be read as a standalone.(Demi’s POV)
His kisses trail down my neck, and it all feels familiar. It feels like home, like love. His mouth glides over the fabric of my nightgown soft and rhythmic as a poem.
The Dragon and the Rose (Celestra Forever After #2) Gage’s POV
(Demetri to Gage) “What kind of love do you have for this woman if you’re so eager to give her away?”I choke on my response. The stock answers I had already spewed out a thousand times before seem stale in the harsh light of the truth. I could have everything—more than I ever wanted or imagined. Why the hell was I so eager to piss everything away? All I know is that I had grown—grow up, or simply woke up and was beginning to realize there isn’t a damn thing I want to throw away—least of all myself. My love for Skyla is strong. And the last thing I want to be is dead.  
Hope you enjoyed! Have a great rest of the week!
And don't forget BURNING THROUGH GRAVITY is now available!Happy reading~!

The Tuesday Tease!

Happy Tuesday! So glad Monday is done. I vote we nix it from the calendar. Only four days till the weekend!

On a serious note, I was challenged by the Poulin Family Florida, over on Facebook, to participate in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, and I of course accepted sans the bathing suit and ice. Instead I happily donated the requisite $100. in the name of my husband's uncle who passed a few years ago from the horrible disease. I hope good things come from this amazing donation vehicle that's swept the country and a cure is found soon. 


Book news! I'm loving the reviews that are pouring in for Burning Through Gravity! And BIG thank you for no spoilers. I really appreciate that right down to the dregs of my little corroded heart. XOXO If you haven't read it, and you enjoy a little suspense with your romance, it's available now at all major ebook retailers. Paperbacks are available on Amazon!


Beautiful Illusions is done! I'm about a week behind in handing it over to my betas and editor but I blame summer for that. I really drank it down this year and enjoyed every crazy minute of it. I hope you'll enjoy Demi and Gavin's story, coming (hopefully) mid to late September!
The Dragon and the Rose! Yes, it's finally FRONT BURNER! I love living on Paragon and playing with Skyla and friends. Did I mention Marshall? Yum. 
More cover reveals coming so look for those. I'm excited myself! 
And thank you to all who came out to the Authors on the Coast signing this past weekend. It was amazing and fun and every single person there was kind beyond belief. I really enjoyed meeting you all! NYC (Romance Riot) is next!! See you in October!   
On to the teasers! 




Beautiful Illusions (Beautiful Oblivion #2) *Can be read as a standalone.(Gavin’s POV)
“I think we should quit while we’re ahead.” “Are you asking me to quit you before we ever begin?” She looks affronted, like I asked her to pluck the ears off a rabbit.A part of me wants to laugh because the sex addict in her is still trying to get into my pants, and, believe me, the sex addict in me very much approves, but I swallow down the urge because she just touched my soul in the exact way I was hoping.“I would never ask you to quit me, Emmy.” It’s not going to happen for me at least. There’s an urgency in me to protect her. I know for a fact, once I take a hit, I’ll never let her out of my bed.

The Dragon and the Rose (Celestra Forever After #2) Skyla’s POV
“So what’s the plan?” I pant hard, pressing myself into the peeling bark of the eucalyptus just to keep Logan’s chest from mine.“The plan, Skyla, is to do this.” He leans in, his lips edge toward mine before he turns quickly and pulls the trigger. The shot rings throughout the island like a thunderclap, and I stagger forward spotting a body in the field. “You killed him.” My hand claws at my chest. I can’t breathe.“I’ve always been a damn good shot.”
Enjoy the week! Happy reading!

The Tuesday Tease!


BIG thank you to all who supported the release of Burning Through Gravity! I hope you're all enjoying  Stevie and Ford. I had so much fun with them. I hope you will, too!




I'm running short on time this week so I'll cut straight to the teasers!


Beautiful Illusions (Beautiful Oblivion #2) *Can be read as a standalone.
(Demi’s POV)Kennedy scoops up her drink and laptop. “It’s national buy-your-girlfriend-flowers-day.” She gives me a quick wink before speeding for the door. “I’ll catch you, two later. Please do things I wouldn’t—and report back to me. It makes life that much more interesting. Make it dirty!” “Dirty?” Gavin mouths as I spin into him. His cheeks, his eyes they smile without his lips. It’s a neat trick that only Gavin seems able to pull off.“Do you know that you’re fiercely attractive when you’re amused?” I sneak a kiss off his ultra soft mouth.

The Dragon and the Rose (Celestra Forever After #2) Skyla’s POV (Skyla and Brielle. Brielle is teaching Skyla a few specialized “techniques” using Melissa’s supersized teddy bear as a prop.)
“Okay, then you round your hips over him like this.” She throws her head back and breaks out into a series of fake passionate moans. Her eyes are closed and she’s riding that overstuffed bear, fast and hard—and, dear God, I don’t think she’s faking anymore. For a second I contemplate pulling out my phone and taking a picture, but if word gets back to Melissa that Bree defiled her “baby” this way, I’m sure the entire universe will have to pay.
*Enjoy your week! I'm planning a few extras and surprises for next Tuesday!

Cover reveal! A Sublime Casualty!


Here it is! My sekrit project finally unveiled!

Cover reveal for, A Sublime Casualty.


(click on the cover to add to Goodreads.)

Special thank you to my cover artist, the fab Sarah Hansen, for creating this beautiful work of art! 

A Sublime Casualty is a new adult romance that will be a part of a series (each book can be read as a standalone).  I'm hoping to release this in the fall of 2014 just after The Dragon and the Rose! 

Here is the (unofficial) jacket blurb:


A Sublime Casualty (NA romance) Addison Moore
Love denied only grows sweeter. Love restrained sets their hearts on fire.

(Charlotte) Charlie Neville is glad the nightmare of high school is behind her and looks forward to living it up in an off campus apartment with her two best friends while soaking in her first year at university. Charlie wants nothing more than to forget her coked-up ex-boyfriend, Luke, who notoriously cheated on her and almost cost her life.
Enter Theo—perfect, godlike, considerate—he's everything Luke never was except for one damning detail.
Once Charlie realizes who Theo is, she's hellbent on staying away from him.
On top of everything, Charlie discovers something that has her world crashing to a halt, and if she believed that she and Theo shouldn’t be together before, she’s convinced of it now. No matter how perfect they might be—no matter how well they seem to fit, Charlie tries to hide the growing list of reasons she and Theo should never be a couple.  
This isn't going to happen. Theo and Charlie can never be. Theo is determined to prove Charlie wrong before their love becomes A Sublime Casualty.


*Just a reminder BURNING THROUGH GRAVITY releases this Tuesday!!!!! I cannot wait for you to meet Stevie and Ford!!! XOXOXO

On to the teasers!






Burning Through Gravity  *New Adult Romance 17+Stephanie (Stevie) and Ford’s story(Stevie’s POV)
“Would you still love me if I hurt you, Ford?”“You can never hurt me. There’s nothing you could do that I wouldn’t forgive. I’ve never believed in destiny or the illusions that go with it, but after tonight, after you, I know our lives were woven together long ago for a reason. We’re going to make it through this life together no matter what the future holds. Love always finds a way.”

Beautiful Illusions (Beautiful Oblivion #2) *New Adult Romance 17+
*Can be read as a standalone.(Gavin’s POV)
“Tell me what has you running scared.”She gives a quiet nod. “Tomorrow.” Her lips inch up to mine. “Tonight I don’t want to go there." She runs her nails down my back ever so gently. “I want to go here.” She pecks a kiss on my neck. “And here.” Her lips ride lower to my chest. “And please, God, right here.”Needless to say, I approve of her travel plans. 
The Dragon and the Rose (Celestra Forever After #2) *New Adult Romance 17+
Skyla’s POV (Skyla and Chloe in the Transfer.)
“Did you just say you were going to snuff me out?” I balk at her ridiculous comment.“Like a flame.” Chloe cinches a smile.For all I’ve done for this bitch she should lick the soles of my feet after I run through a puddle of habanero sauce.“But you’ve done something for me, Skyla”—her neck arches back as if it were sexual in nature—“you’ve gifted me something I could truly never repay you for.”“Damn straight.” Now we’re talking. “Like your fake life.”“Oh, no.” She shakes her head, her eyes fixed on mine. “Something far greater. I’ve seen a glimpse of the future. It’s…” she staggers forward like a drunkard. Her gaze lost on some unknowable horizon. “It’s…”“It’s what Chloe?”She spins into me with a fire that enlivens her, makes her glow from the inside out.“It’s my true destiny.” “Your head on a platter?”“My head in a crown.”

Beautiful Illusions cover reveal!!!


It's finally here! The cover reveal for Beautiful Illusions! I've had the cover for a while and I've been dying to share it with you. This is book 2 in the Beautiful Oblivion Series, but it can be read as a stand alone!




Isn't it hot? Regina Wamba worked her wonderful, wicked magic, and I'm more than happy. I hope you're loving it too!

Here's a little more about the book:


Beautiful Illusions  (New Adult Romance)Addison Moore
(unofficial Jacket blurb)
Sometimes the past comes back to haunt you—in the most heartbreakingly beautiful way.
Gavin’s story.
I fell in love hard and fast as lightning. As quick as she came into my world she was gone. Demi said she has secrets—that she’s done horrible things. Who hasn’t? I’m not going to let the past determine our future. Sometimes love lays forever at your feet and sometimes you need to fight for it. Demi is worth every damn battle we’ll have to go through. I’d burn down the world just to keep her safe. And, after what I’ve discovered, I just might have to. All I need with Demi is one more night to convince her we’re worth it. And that one night is going to cost me everything.

**I don't have a hard release date yet but I'm all over this book now, so it shouldn't be too much longer! Be sure to click on the cover and add it to goodreads! I'll update as soon as I have a release date! 

UPDATE! Winners for the Kindle Paperwhites are Kristy P., Lisa M., and Tonya M. Congrats to all! Winners have been privately notified. 
Enjoy the weekend!

The Tuesday Tease


Happy Tuesday! I hope you've had a fab week full of sunshine and unicorns! I also hope you enjoyed the cover reveal of Burning Through Gravity! I'm SO excited to get the entire book to you. August 12th seems so far away but I'm sure it'll be here before we know it. If you'd like to add it to Goodreads just click on the cover.



More cover reveal news! I'm doing another cover reveal this Friday for my upcoming novel Beautiful Illusions. Beautiful Illusions is the 2nd book in the Beautiful Oblivion Series and it is a stand alone novel so you don't have to have read book 1 to read it. Beautiful Illusions is Gavin's story. Gavin is Ace's hot friend who owns his own woodcutting business, which explains why he looks so darn hot without a shirt on. Turn the AC up because things are about to get steamy in Lake Loveless!

In fact, I'll be doing a cover reveal for my upcoming books each Friday just to catch you up to cover speed. Lots and lots of covers. It's almost scary. 

Rafflecopter news! Yes the rafflecopter drawing is finally over for the 3 Kindle Paperwhites with custom Someone to Love Series skins! My PA gal is getting the winners info to me and as soon as I have it I'll announce the winners on the blog! (In fact I'll update this during the week).

On to the teasers!


Burning Through Gravity  *New Adult Romance 17+Stephanie (Stevie) and Ford’s story(Stevie’s POV)
“Go away.” I turn my back to him and continue to admire the landscape. There’s not a man on this planet who can chase me to bed with one wicked grin. “Are you always so friendly?”“Only to people I like.”He steps into my view, and I turn slightly to annoy him. “So you like me, then.” More dimples. “I’ll admit I thought it might be an uphill battle.”“It will be.”

The Dragon and the Rose (Celestra Forever After #2) Skyla’s POV (Skyla and Marshall. He just gifted her a bracelet.)
“So what is this?” I clip the chunky hunk of metal over my wrist and wave my arm in the air like I’m warding off evil spirits. “Let me guess, this makes any Fem who wants to jump my bones disintegrate on the spot? Or wait, it acts as an invisibility shield so I can sneak around the Transfer without being detected.” Just the thought of hanging out with the idiots down there makes me want to hurl.Marshall slouches forward and crosses his arms. His features harden and make him look decidedly comely. Why am I here again?“Are you through Ms. Messenger?”“Not quite.” I touch my finger to the metal rose welded to the side of the bracelet. “Oh, wait—I know what this is, it’s the Michelle Miller 2.0. A new and improved Rose of Deadly Dreams.” I close my eyes for a moment as Michelle and those haunted rose necklace days run through my mind. Good times.  “No. It’s not a training ground for Fems, Skyla.” He narrows his brows giving himself a wicked appeal. “It’s a token of my affection.”

Enjoy the week and I'll see you Friday for the cover reveal of Beautiful Illusions!
