Tour: Scarlet Hawthorne’s Deadline
He wants her body and heart, but a killer wants her soul.
After her erotic romance novels become international bestsellers, writer Gillian Tate cannot enjoy her long-sought success once her husband files for divorce and she becomes the target of threats from a religious fringe hate group; but when she tries to find peace in the solitude of a remote lakeside cabin to complete the third novel in the trilogy, not only does she meet the man who can fulfill her secret desires, she also finds she hasn’t escaped danger by leaving the city.
When the Adirondack town’s police chief Sam Taylor learns of the threats and checks in on the notorious author, he is surprised to find she is nothing like he would have expected from her erotic novels but everything he has imagined in his own fantasies.
Can he and the woman of his dreams escape her waking nightmare?
*Adult Content: This erotic romantic suspense includes scenes of bondage between consenting adults.*

Scarlet Hawthorne began writing short stories at the age of eight, poems at ten, and wrote her first novella – a romantic tragedy – at twelve. Today she enjoys creating characters who discover integrity and their authentic selves through their sexuality. She has been a speaker at national conferences discussing how power exchange can enhance relationships and refuting the negative stereotypes of BDSM promulgation in the media.
An award-winning and bestselling author in a variety of genres under other pen names, Scarlet was a featured author at the 2014 BDSM Writers Conference in New York City and contributed an excerpt from her upcoming romantic suspense Retrograde to the first BDSM Writers Con Anthology.

Scarlet lives with her two dogs and their Master in a lakeside community in the New Orleans area. Her next release is the contemporary male/male romance Between the Notes, expected in spring, 2015.

All About T R Lykins
I am married to the love of my life and have been married to him for twenty years. When I met my husband it was love at first sight, so I am still a believer in true love. We even got married three months after we met and still together after twenty years. I am a stay at home mom of two wonderful boys who keep me on my toes.As a stay at home mom, I became an avid reader who loves and reads most genres. The love of these books spiked my interest to learn more about the book world and the process it took to become an author. Learning as much as I can about the wonderful world of writing, I had to write my stories. I’ve had these stories building in my head for over a year and I just needed to share them with everyone.
Educating myself in this industry has made me work hard to obtain my goals of writing and becoming an author. The learning process has also made me appreciate, what all these authors have accomplished and all the hard work they put into writing and publishing. I quickly learned that it is important to thank an author by leaving reviews of their work. Having many author friends who always answer my many questions has helped me and I love each of them. These authors are my inspiration.
I can’t wait to share all my stories with you!!! My novels are Clean New Adult/Young Adult Romance. Hope you enjoy my unique stories about love and happily ever after.
Why do I write clean romance novels? I wanted to share my story with everyone and focus more on the storyline. As a mother, I needed to know that my children would be proud of what I write and not be afraid to let them read and be apart of my journey as an author. This world already has too much going on in it that I can’t control them from seeing, but I can make my books something they can be proud to read.
Now I can share my stories with anyone at any age group. Adults and teenagers alike can read my stories and I am proud to have kept it clean for everyone to read.
Thank you for being apart of my world and taking a chance on reading my stories.
I love hearing from my readers so feel free to contact me and let me hear why or how you liked my stories. This helps encourage me to continue writing for my readers. All my links to follow me are on this website.

Book Tour & Giveaway: Shattered by T.P. Hogan
“Here she was, the girl who didn’t believe in ghosts, standing in the middle of a set of stone steps waiting at a mirror for a ghost to appear.”
Sebastian Ashcombe has been trapped behind the mirrors of Ashcombe Manor almost 150 years. He can view the manor using the mirrors as windows to the solid world but he can’t communicate with anyone and no one can see him.
Until Now.
Mattie Holmes visits Ashcombe Manor in Dunmore England after her mother marries Alex Ashcombe. The last thing she expects is a man in the mirror. Bastian is not a ghost. He didn’t die. He was cursed behind the mirror on his wedding day in 1869. As they start to unravel the mystery they realise they are running out of time. If they don’t break the curse before February 29th Bastian will simply disappear.
Breaking a centuries old curse is hard enough, but Mattie is starting to fall for Bastian. Not only is his very existence in jeopardy but to love a man in the mirror may only lead to a shattered heart.

L.M. Creations Testimonials
‘Louisa @ LM Creations is a skilled cover artist and designer. Reaching out to her as an author, alien to the world of design, I was immediately reassured and felt confident in her talented hands. She has an amazing eye for detail, and walked me through every step of the design process, offering suggestions, ideas and always wanting the best for me and my book cover, A Perfect Moment. I will definitely be returning to Louisa @ LM Creations, for my design needs.’

Covers sell. First impressions count. Give your book the best chance by having a professional cover done by a cover artist who has the skills and talent to transform the vision from your words and story into an artistic masterpiece that will help you not only sell more books, but stand out from the overcrowded marketplace.
There are a few things that can be a real pain in the butt for an author – one of them is finding a cover artist who has the talent, the vision and the understanding to translate a brief (the authors ideas) into a spectacular work of art.
And that’s where I got lucky. I met Louisa from LM Creations through a mutual friend whose covers were sensational and I wanted to give my books the same chance to be noticed by readers.
Louisa is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is talented, interprets an authors vision with ease, but even more so, she is lovely to work with, delivers over and above what is expected and goes the extra mile to make each cover special. I plan to work with Louisa on many more covers in future, because I know I’ll always get what I want. There is no bigger recommendation than going back to work with somebody again because you trust them with your baby. And I trust Louisa 100%.
I only have one small problem with Louisa’s work: how on earth can I keep the beautiful finished covers to myself before reveal day and sit on it without showing it off to the world?? I am so in love with the awesome cover for “No Regrets” that I’m going to have a hard time waiting to share it.
Louisa also did the cover for the Born To Ride Biker Collection and it was pot on, exactly portraying through images what the set was all about. They say a picture is worth a thousand words – Louisa has that nailed!
Thank you Louisa for the beautiful work you have done and I look forward to working with you on many more covers.
Best of luck for your future career,
Jani Kay’
