We would be so appreciative if you could please share on social media.
  PREORDER NOW!!! We Are One releases January 26!!!

This Australia Day, January 26, WE ARE ONE will be released with ALL proceeds donated to charity.⁠

We NEEDED to do something for the beautiful country we call home, because it’s hurting right now, and it needs our help. So with the guidance of my incredible Aussie authors we have created two romance anthologies.⁠

VOLUME ONE will be available across all platforms: #AppleBooks, #Kobo, #Nook, and #Amazon and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Rural Aid. We chose this organization for our #bees.

VOLUME TWO will be available to purchase from Amazon, and will be included in #KindleUnlimited with 100% of the proceeds donated to WIRES. I probably don’t need to tell you this, but the loss of flora and fauna to these bushfires is catastrophic. It truly is unfathomable, and that’s why we chose this incredible organisation.⁠

Miss Understanding - Aubrey Bondurant

Title: Miss UnderstandingSeries: Miss #1Author: Aubrey BondurantGenre: Contemporary RomanceRelease Date: January 10, 2020


Blurb
Liam Davenport is the most infuriating man I’ve ever known – and he’s my boss.
Worse, he’s undeniably sexy. At least until I’m subject to one of his trademark sighs of disapproval. I’m counting the days until I can walk away from this job. But first, I need to survive the trip from hell he’s dragged me on. One entire week with his arrogant smile and my unexpected naughty thoughts.

I might get fired.

He just might be worth it.

Kendall Tate is the most distracting woman I’ve ever met – and she’s my assistant.
She’s irritatingly clever, and much too nice for the likes of me. I need to remain professional, even if the smell of her strawberry lip gloss is my kryptonite. No matter how much I want her, Kendall is off limits.

Growing closer to her might be a mistake.

I might just take the risk.

Excerpt
After a hot shower, I dressed in jeans and a sweater. Looking out the window, I saw there was a good inch of snow already covering the surfaces. It reminded me of my childhood when we’d pray for a snow day so we could go sledding down the neighborhood hill instead of school. A movement shifted my gaze to the corner of the back yard. I saw a figure in olive green on the ground.  Holy shit. Kendall had fallen. I rushed down the stairs, pausing only to frantically yank on my boots before running out the back door and down the steps toward where I saw her on the ground. I found her laughing. Was she delirious from the cold? A bump on the head?“What the hell are you doing?” I asked.She looked up with rosy cheeks, bright eyes, and the biggest smile I’d ever seen on her face. “Making a snow angel.”“Why?” It was truly baffling to me. “Because this is my first time seeing snow.” Her purple sparkly boots peeked out from the giant parka, making me shake my head. She looked like a toddler poorly dressed for the weather in hand-me-downs. “You’d best get up before the snow seeps through all of your clothes.”She stuck her tongue out in response. “Go away. I’m not on the clock yet, and you’re ruining my fun.”“I came racing down here because I thought you’d fallen.”“Oh, yeah? Did you come out to rescue me? Or hope you could quickly hide the body?” she asked, holding out her gloved hand.I pulled her up without much effort. I’d be surprised if her petite stature weighed more than a hundred pounds. Her grin was infectious despite my hangover. “Depends. Did you make coffee?”Her lips twitched in a smile. “I did. I’ll even give you some. Just as soon as you help me make a snowman.”She was adorable. And not in the toddler kind of way. The type of way that made me want her to hook her legs around my waist so I could take her against a wall.

Author Bio

Mallory Fox can attest to the fact that she's addicted to tatted up bad boys, chocolate covered pretzels, and looking deep into heart-melting, big brown eyes... the canine kind.

She absolutely loves to write deliciously dark romance with wicked, twisty plots about tainted-love, sweet revenge, and all kinds of emotional-rollercoaster redemption. So if you like a broken anti-hero (or two, or three) and heroines who give as good as they get, then you're in the right place.

Currently, Mallory lives in London with her bean-shaped dog and the rest of her non-furry family. When she's not trying to escape to country, she's writing like a demon on her smartphone and running for some dodgy mode of public transport London has to offer.

Today Our Government Started The Death of Tobacco Harm Reduction

Today is a sad day in America as our government started the destruction of tobacco harm reduction.  While many will rejoice that open systems were not included in the FDA ban of all flavors except menthol and tobacco in pod systems, this is the beginning of the end of the greatest smoking cessation tool on the market today, vaping.  What this bill did not end, the PMTA will wipe out this year because the million + fee for bringing products through the market will destroy the majority of the e-liquid manufacturers this year.

I strongly encourage all adults that vape to learn how to DIY and to stock up on the tools needed  so you don't have to return to deadly combustible cigarettes that will remain on the shelves to kill 450,000 Americans every year.  Our public health system has failed  and with this ban have encouraged every single adult pod user to return to smoking by this ban if they use flavors in their delivery device.  For those that wish to learn about open-systems (until they have banned those as well) I will be doing an in-depth discussion of how to make that switch on www.vapingcrimson.com later today.

Because of our government and public health failure to support tobacco harm reduction, I am encouraging all adults that smoke and wish to learn about how to quit to follow Public Health England for smoking cessation advice.  They were the ones that warned the United States about the dangers of Cigarettes and continue to be the leading scientific community to understand how tobacco harm reduction works.  They understood science and knew that illegal black-market THC (pot) products were harming people, not nicotine e-liquid.  Our American Scientists have a long way to go before they catch up to Public Health England.  This is the difference in a society that is not paid off by tobacco or pharmaceutical companies, and is the example we should be following.

I was diagnosed with COPD in 2015 after a lifetime of smoking, and vaping was the only reason I was able to quit this deadly habit.  Since my switch to vaping, my lungs have continued to heal, and I have been able to breathe like a normal person, with my oxygen levels returning to normal levels.  The vaping community has, and will always have my strongest support because I wouldn't be here to speak about this atrocity of American Public Health if I hadn't been led toward vaping as an alternative.  Most of you know that I'm a former respiratory tech, and I've watched hundreds of people die from smoking complications.  I've also had family members die of Lung Cancer and Emphysema, so when tobacco harm reduction is challenged, I will call out the killers behind such an act of destruction.

Today marks my decision to longer support any public health organization, or government official, or for that matter, any individual that supports the end of vaping as tobacco harm reduction   To me, these people are asking for the death of 450,000 Americans a year, and I cannot, will not, stand behind any such criminal.  If you or a loved one has become ill because of cigarettes you should take up this same mentality.  We cannot allow our government to continue destroying adult lungs and taking money from tobacco or pharmaceutical companies to push their murderous agenda!  I have made it my life mission to bring the truth out against these people, and will not stop until every single person has the RIGHT to choose how they want to quit smoking.

We have seen the failures of FDA approved drugs like Chantix, and the horrible consequences these drugs can cause.  If you haven't researched this, I strongly encourage you to read WebMD's article on the Chantix suicides and suicidal thoughts.   This is a tragedy for Americans.  Outside of vaping, most tobacco cessation products have a  7% success rate to keep a person off cigarettes for 6-12 months.  13 million Americans have successfully quit smoking due to vaping.  Destroying the industry that is actually helping Americans quit shows that our country is determined to kill tobacco harm reduction.

While e-liquid manufacturers may rejoice today over the small battle they have won in not having all flavors removed from the market, I will look on in sadness as I watch the vaping industry die a slow death.  Today our Government Started The Death of Harm Reduction, and they must be held accountable for this.  Talk to your local politicians, who sometimes forget they work for you and not the other way around.  Demand that they keep vaping with flavors legal for adults, and if they disagree vote them out.  We have the potential to destroy the epidemic of combustible cigarette deaths in this country, but that won't happen unless you stand up and be heard.  Hold them accountable for the death of 450,000 Americans a year.  Make them own that title.

Sweet Agony - Terri Anne Browning

Title: Sweet AgonySeries: Angel's Halo MC Next Gen #2Author: Terri Anne BrowningGenre: New Adult/MC/Mafia RomanceRelease Date: December 31, 2019


Blurb
Vengeance was something I’d been waiting all my life to deliver. It would be sweet and worth every risk I’d taken to get to this point.

I was moments away from pulling the trigger, taking the life of the man who’d cost my father his…

And then she was dragged into the room, struggling and fighting for freedom.

The moment I set eyes on Tavia, everything changed. Those darker than espresso eyes were full of fear, her mouth so ripe that had once begged me to devour it trembling in fright. She looked up at me through a curtain of thick, long lashes and gasped.

“Theo,” she whispered, her voice cracking as those eyes I’d fallen hard for filled with tears. “Help me.”

It was then I realized my Tavia was also his.

My enemy’s daughter.

The only way to escape is to die.
For eighteen years I’ve suffered at the hands of the Hunters. For eighteen years they’ve done their best to break me, to tear me open and unleash the terrifying monster that lives within.

And if I break, the darkness inside me will finally be free.

Excerpt

Scooping up the last bit of pudding, I put it in her bowl. “Eat up, love,” I said with a grin. “Winning is hard work.”She eyed the pudding with a look that was part yearning, part apprehension. “I feel like it’s talking to me,” she admitted with a rueful smile.Intrigued, I leaned forward. “What’s it saying?”“Well . . . it’s a particularly arrogant pudding.”My interest grew. “Oh?”She mimicked my posture, resting her elbows on her knees, and moved closer. “It thinks very highly of itself. Brags about its sweet taste, its chocolaty goodness.”“Then what’s holding you back?”Humor sparkled in her brown eyes. “It reminds me too much of you.”“Really?” I drawled. “You think I’m sweet?” Satisfaction curled in my stomach. Maybe she was recalling the last time we played poker; the intimate moment I’d nearly ruined.“I think you think you’re sweet. Just like the arrogant pudding,” she quipped, peeking up at me.The little minx.
