Unwrapping a Marriage

Unwrapping a Marriageby Reana Malori & Michel PrinceGenre: Interracial Romance, BMWW

AmazonBarnes
A collaboration from two of your favorite Multicultural / Interracial Authors. Just in time for the holiday season.**

What do you do when the love that once set you free, feels like it’s holding you prisoner?

Sterling and Elizabeth Jackson have built a life most would envy. A beautiful home, two wonderful children and a very comfortable lifestyle. Yet something is tearing them apart. With divorce looming, they are trying to make it through the holiday season for their family.

With clashing schedules, demands from employers and two busy kids, the former lovers have managed to stay out of each other’s orbit, at least for a while. But Fate, or maybe their well-meaning family, has set them up on a collision course.

Past memories bubble up to the surface and there’s nothing to stem the flow. What once was amazing has turned hurtful and full of pain. But is that the real story? Is it too late for a couple who once lived and breathed for each other to find their way back?

There’s a thin line between love and hate. Will Sterling and Elizabeth be able to mend a love that seems broken and lost, or will the final pull on the holiday ribbon unwrap their last chance to save their marriage.



Reana's stories focus on multicultural / interracial romance. A firm believer that LOVE in all its forms should be celebrated, her goal is to weave a story that pulls the reader into her world and share in her universe, even if only for a short time.

Between You and I

Between You and Iby Beth D CarterGenre: May December Contemporary Erotica Romance
Evernight Publishing Amazon All Romance Ebooks 
A broken engagement left Madeline Shawl feeling like a shattered woman. When she meets Hunter Calegari, he seems to be the perfect man for some friends-with-benefits action. But when the easy affair turns into something more, it threatens her comfortable grief. 

The passion of the younger man nearly infects her until Hunter tries to articulate it with the three words she refuses to hear. When she pushes him away, wounding his heart, she finds her own broken all over again. 
Still, Madeline struggles to leave the past and accept that when Hunter said, "I love you," he wasn't just speaking for himself.



I like writing about the very ordinary girl thrust into extraordinary circumstances, so my heroines will probably never be lawyers, doctors or corporate highrollers.  I try to write characters who aren't cookie cutters and push myself to write complicated situations that I have no idea how to resolve, forcing me to think outside the box.  I love writing characters who are real, complex and full of flaws, heroes and heroines who find redemption through love.

Into the Flames

Into the FlamesFirehouse Fourteen Book 4by Lisa B KampsGenre: Contemporary Romance/Firefighter Romance

AmazonKoboBarnes
Dale Gannon has sworn off women. He's seen more than his share of crazy and not all of it has been during his job as a firefighter. His youngest sister, Lindsay, is currently in jail awaiting trial for the attempted poisoning of his other sister, Lauren. Guilt still eats at him, making him wonder if there was something he could have done to prevent Lindsay's fall. Could he have been more supportive? More encouraging? What if…no, he was done with what-ifs. Done with women. Done with people, period. What he needs is peace, quiet…and time to come to grips with everything that's happened in the last six months.
And then he meets the neighbor from hell: a sassy free-spirited woman who quickly turns his life upside down.

Melanie Reeves has always seen things differently, viewing life as an array of color. Bright and vibrant, dark and moody. She captures them, breathes them, gives life to them on canvas. But her obnoxious neighbor is a mystery, one she can't solve, one she can't even read clearly—and one she tries her best to ignore.

Until she discovers the deep guilt that plagues him—guilt he won't admit to or even acknowledge. Can she help him find his way to the surface before the darkness completely engulfs the inner vibrancy she senses in him? Or will he drag her with him into the flames, where they both run the risk of losing who they really are?



Lisa B. Kamps is the author of the best-selling series The Baltimore Banners, featuring "hard-hitting, heart-melting hockey players" (USA Today), on and off the ice. Her newest series, Firehouse Fourteen, features hot and heroic firefighters.
In a previous life, she worked as a firefighter with the Baltimore County Fire Department, then a very brief (and not very successful) stint at bartending in east Baltimore, and finally as the Director of Retail Operations for a busy Civil War non-profit.
Lisa currently lives in Maryland with her husband and two sons (who are mostly sorta-kinda out of the house), one very spoiled Border Collie, two cats with major attitude, several head of cattle, and entirely too many chickens to count. When she's not busy writing or chasing animals, she's cheering loudly for her favorite hockey team, the Washington Capitals--or going through withdrawal and waiting for October to roll back around!

AUTHOR NOTE: It’s unfortunate that Kindle World Books are only offered on Amazon US. This was not my choice, but Amazon’s decision. They have the final say, and I’m just a peon stuck in a rock and a hard place. My understanding is that this decision was made due to the complicated copyright legalities of permitting an author to pen a story in another author’s world. I LOVE ALL of my non-Amazon and non-US readers—seriously, y’all are amazeballs and just as important to me as the rest of my readers—and I can empathize with your disappointment. I’d be bummed if Amazon wouldn’t let me read one of my favorite authors too. While I wish Kindle World would open to readers across the globe—don’t give up hope that in time it will—the choice to write for Kindle World was a business decision. Kissing Sassy is a standalone novel and is NOT part of any of my other series!

Andrea (Andi) Morgan is working toward a promotion to art director of a lifestyle magazine in Minnesota when she is called to Florida for the funeral of her mother’s significant other. She takes a three-day funeral leave and is surprised to learn that her mother has dementia and can no longer live in the house alone.
Andi is torn between work and family, and is overwhelmed by the items on her to-do list that need to be done in three days.  
Matthew (Matt) Cooke, assistant pastor at Hope Presbyterian Church, is the bearer of bad news for both the funeral and her mother’s health condition. But he redeems himself with carefully chosen words and his comforting touch settles into all the right places as he helps Andi navigate the process of moving her mother into a memory care facility.
Andi extends her family leave for another week and the connection between them grows. She is also able to begin repairing the relationship with her mother, who she hasn’t seen in four years.
But behind his seemingly perfect exterior, Matt carries a secret that he waits too long to reveal to Andi for fear that she won’t want him. He looks for the right time, but something always comes up. She learns from the gossipy church secretary that he has a 10-year-old daughter. He never married the mother, who he’d known since high school, and he shares that it was the ultimate act of grace that the church membership installed him as assistant pastor even with his past.
Although she is shocked at the news, Andi is less upset about the fact that he has a daughter and more concerned that he didn’t trust her enough to share the information. And just when she thinks things couldn’t get worse, the art director promotion is given to someone else in her absence. To top it off, her mother doesn’t remember her when she goes to play bingo with her and all seems lost.
But Andi has a change of heart when she receives much-needed words of wisdom from the church secretary and sees Matt practicing softball with his daughter. She decides to stay in Mimosa Key, start her own freelance graphic design business and put family before her career.
What she saw as an interruption in her life a week ago has turned out to be so much more: a repaired relationship with her mother, a God-loving man and a little girl she could look forward to building a future with.

Fans love PERFECT MATCH, the TV reality show taped at Barefoot Bay that guarantees soul mates a happy ever after.
