SYNOPSIS

Single mom, Bailey Yates, has had enough of bad boys to last her the next eighteen years. She’s always been a sucker for them, and Jessamine’s ultimate bad boy, Lucas Lawson, is no exception for her. So, when he returns to town, naturally she’s drawn to him. And naturally, she must avoid him at all costs–no matter how attracted she is to him. She’ll give him a job, and keep her distance…until Lucas saves her son from a hit and run.

Finally, Lucas Lawson is a free man. After serving five years in prison for embezzlement, he’s come home to Jessamine to right the wrongs he committed against his friends and family. But, it won’t be easy. For starters, the brother he’s looked up to his entire life wants nothing to do with him, and no one in town trusts Lucas enough to give him a chance to make amends. Until, Bailey Yates gives him a job at her family’s diner.

Bailey gives Lucas a hope for the future he hasn’t allowed himself to feel in years while Lucas melts Bailey’s heart every time he spends time with her son. Could he be the one to put her life back together? But when Lucas is accused of stealing from a local charity, Bailey must decide to support him or realize that some men are too good to be true.

Book Blitz ~ ‘Little Wolf’ by Am��lie S. Duncan.

Little Wolf��by��Am��lie S. Duncan

Publication date: December 9th 2014

Genres:��Erotica,��Romance








��


SYNOPSIS

When twenty-three year old Tala Velsik appears in a last minute performance art piece, she has no idea that public nudity will be the least of her worries. Wearing nothing��but silver paint and a pair of antlers, her body is bared to hundreds of eyes, but one penetrating stare simmers through the others, Adrian Caro.

Adrian Caro is one of the world���s most famous directors and photographers, but with striking features and a body made for sin, most would guess he belonged in front of��the camera.

Of course, the last thing Tala needs is romance, even with a walking Adonis. Mounting bills, a dead end job and a set of childhood memories most therapists would pale��at; love is low on her list. Assuming, of course, her new admirer allows her to have a say in the matter.

Shocked yet thrilled by Adrian���s passionate domination, Tala can���t help but feel she���s standing on quicksand. For all his wealth, fame and talent, Adrian is tormented by��his own demons; hiding secrets big enough to destroy them both.

��





��

I shook my head. ���You did, but not anymore. I���m perfectly capable of tending to myself.���

���I���m also perfectly capable of tending to you,��� Adrian said with a Gallic shrug.

I looked away. ���You���re overwhelming me. I don���t like games or riddles. I like straight talk. I don���t like coddling������

���You do like coddling, that���s a lie,��� Adrian said. His tone was so full of disappointment that it made me spill out an explanation.

���Fine. I don���t trust coddling. Trauma growing up��� snore. So no more of that.���

He cupped my face. ���Tell me what happened.��� His eyes bore into me, but I didn���t want to share a part of myself with a wealthy, famous man who couldn���t possibly understand, someone I was sure I wouldn���t see again anyway.

I rubbed the back of my neck. ���It���s in the past where it belongs and has no relevance to my job with you.��� He swallowed and his mouth turned down. My heart stuttered. I didn���t understand why I felt bad, but I decided to offer him more of an explanation. I took a deep breath before blurting out, ���My mother is a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic. She was unmedicated for most of my childhood.���

He stroked my face gently. ���She hurt you.��� His eyes flashed and his mouth curled up. He appeared pumped and poised to slay the demons of my past.

I licked my lips. ���She���s better now. She lives at Newton House in Middletown, New York. It���s a partially private group home. She���s one of the reasons I agreed to come here. Helping her afford her home. So, I���m fine,��� I babbled. ���She had childhood trauma too, but she���s doing better, and I want her to stay there.���

���So you work and do day labor to cover the cost of her housing?��� The look on his face showed he didn���t agree with my sacrificing for someone who had hurt me.

I moved on my side, facing away from him on the bed. ���Newton House is more than housing. She gets doctors, therapy, counseling, and activities. My mom was good when she was on medication, and you have no right to judge me. I wouldn���t expect someone like a Carlotti to understand anyway.���

���Just because I have wealth doesn���t mean I have lived a charmed life. I���ve experienced pain and loss too. I lost my mother to breast cancer when I was twelve. There wasn���t enough Carlotti money to save her and keep her with me.��� Something inside me melted, and I turned back over and didn���t protest as he moved me closer to him and embraced me.

Publication date: January 2015

��




SYNOPSIS

Ever since her former roommates deserted her, Meg has had to share an apartment with a lazy, obnoxious ass. He won���t pick up after himself, and he refuses to get a good��job. Plus, he doesn���t always wear enough clothes���which is really a problem, because he���s hot.

Maybe he���s occasionally funny. And every now and then he can be sweet. But mostly he���s just annoying. It doesn���t matter how much he���s starting to flirt with her���Meg��is going to resist. She���s way too smart to fall for a guy who never takes anything seriously.

But then everything changes in only one night…

���What���s the matter?��� East asked in a different tone. He was still studying her face, and he seemed to see a lot more than he should, despite his lazy insouciance.

���Nothing,��� she snapped, annoyed mostly at herself for being bothered so much at the thought of moving out. Her eyes dipped down again to discover that he was a little more erect than he���d been before. In response to the hot flash she felt, she added, ���Would you mind putting that thing away?��� She waved in the general direction of his groin, carefully keeping her gaze from settling there again.

He glanced down, as if surprised. Then he gave her a hot grin. ���Where would you like me to put it?���

���Put it behind a towel or something.���

���And have a little respect. He���s not an ���it���, you know.���

She had to choke back a laugh at his exaggeratedly aggrieved tone. ���It���s a ���he,��� is it? Does he have a name?���

���Of course.��� East glanced down at himself and then back up to her face. ���His name is South.���

There was no way Meg could hide the ripple of laughter at this ironic tone. She could see that East was smiling, as if he was pleased he���d amused her so much.

���Well, would you please put South away? Normal people don���t parade around naked, you know.���

���You���re the one who barged in here.��� He was still smiling, but he wrapped his towel around his waist, hiding the part in question.

���And I don���t even want to know what you were doing in here on your own with a hard-on.��� To hide her embarrassment as it hit home that she was with East naked, she made her voice even dryer than normal.

He chuckled again. ���I was thinking about you, of course. And then you came in wearing nothing but my t-shirt and messy hair, looking like a wet dream, so it���s like my fantasies came to life.���

Release Day Blast ~ ‘Kaleidoscope Hearts’ by Claire Contreras.

Congrats & Happy Release Claire Contreras!

Kaleidoscope Hearts is LIVE!

Meet Oliver and Elle in this wonderful stand-alone!

SYNOPSIS

He was my older brother’s best friend.

He was never supposed to be mine.

I thought we would get it out of our system and move on.

One of us did.

One of us left.

Now he���s back, looking at me like he wants to devour me. And all those feelings I���d turned into anger are brewing into something else, something that terrifies me.

He broke my heart last time.

This time he’ll obliterate it.

���Look at me, Elle,��� he says, using the deliciously low demanding voice that once made my toes curl and my eyes roll back, and I have no choice but to tilt my head to give him my attention. ���Forget those lame guys you���re dating.

Let me take you out.���

�������������� My heart, if possible, spikes further in my chest, overriding all warning of the impending chaos that���s sure to come. I try turning my attention to the poster hanging beside me, but the kissing couple makes me look back at him and the deep green eyes that are burning into mine. My stomach does a flip-flop, the way it always does when he looks at me that way and I try to take my hands back because these feelings are too scary for me to deal with right now, but he holds them tighter, bringing them up to his mouth and kissing the tip of my ring finger. Why did he pick that finger to kiss? I pull harder and he finally lets my hand drop.

�������������� ���I can���t,��� I say, my voice coming out hoarse.

�������������� A myriad of emotions flash in his eyes before they settle on determination and I���m forced to take a step back, away from his scent, away from his warmth, and into the cold closet behind me.

�������������� ���Why not?���

�������������� I sigh, finally looking away, back down to his naked feet. ���I just can���t.��� He knows why not. He shouldn���t ask me that question. ���What���s Vic doing, anyway?���

�������������� His body moves into mine so quickly that I don���t have time to react to his large hands clutching my arms or his face dropping until we���re nose to nose. I just stare, wide eyed, waiting for his lips to fall over mine, but they don���t. He just looks at me, breathes on me, lets me breathe on him, and he groans. And that fucking groan travels from his body into mine and crawls into the core of me, draping over every fiber inside of me.

�������������� ���What do you want, Oliver?��� I whisper against his lips. ���What do you want from me? You want to kiss me? You want to fuck me? You want to come into my life like the hurricane that you are and tear down everything I���ve rebuilt and disappear just as quickly?���

�������������� His lips brush slightly against mine, just a breath of a touch as he stands there, crowding me like he���s about to devour me. But he won���t. He never goes in for the kill. He just lures me, casts me, reels me in and pulls away. His hands drop and his face leaves mine with the same quickness and I feel a pang deep inside me that I wish wasn���t there.

�������������� ���I���m sorry,��� he says quietly, shaking his head in a movement that makes his hair sway back and forth. His eyes are soft on mine now and I can almost hear his thoughts: I should have never kissed her. I should have never���

�������������� My brows rise in surprise at the apology, though. There are so many things I can say to him, but the sudden defeated look in his eyes keeps my mouth shut. Finally, I exhale and push off the wall, standing in front of him, with enough distance between us that we can���t reach out and touch each other.

�������������� ���It���s okay just��� don���t do it again. The kiss the other day was a mistake������ I stop talking and walk past him, putting my bra away and sorting through my underwear drawer like it has some sort of hidden treasure or something. This time when I feel him come up behind me, I drop my head and exhale. He really needs to stop sneaking up behind me.

�������������� ���Oli������ I start and gasp when I feel his lips on the back of my neck, soft and warm. My heart thunders and my hands begin to shake inside the drawer so I close my eyes and focus on breathing. He drops another kiss right beside that spot. I never knew the back of my neck was so sensitive. The feeling sends a ripple of sensation down my arms and through my body.

�������������� ���It wasn���t a mistake,��� he says in a husky whisper that makes my flesh break out in goose bumps. ���You���ve never been a mistake. You want me to tell your brother that I want to take you out? Is that what it would take?���

Blood, Milk, and Chocolate��by��Cameron Jace

(The Grimm Diaries #3)

Publication date: January 19th 2015

Genres:��Fairy Tales,��Fantasy,��Young Adult










SYNOPSIS

I have been accused of being malicious and evil.

I, the Snow White Queen, have a story to tell.

The true story and what has really happened. How it all happened. Why the Brothers Grimm altered the truth, letting you think it was a fairy tale. When and how the tale took place. And above all, why I did what I did. Why you haven���t been told the truth for centuries. The truth about me and the truth about the not-so-innocent Snow White.

Here is my side of the story. You will never look at Snow White the same way again.

For a moment, I thought this was it. This was the end of our short-lived love story, where a beauty���supposedly me at the time, before the world got to me���was going to get bitten by the beast, Angel Von Sorrow. This was the moment when I was about to realize that my mother was right in not approving of our love. This was the moment when I realized that trying to break the rules by staring at my reflection in the Pond of Pearls was what brought me here. This���was the end of me.

Maybe the mermaids were right; there was a reason why me and Angel shouldn’t have been together.

I closed my eyes, my vein pulsing and ready to be sliced open by the one I loved dearly. Was I going to turn into a vampire like him? Were we both going to be gifted���and cursed���with immortality? I had no idea. All I did was wait for his teeth to sink into my soul.

SYNOPSIS

From international bestselling author, K.N. Lee comes Rise of the Flame, an epic beginning to the Eura Chronicles.

There are six races, four realms, and one human girl who can bring them together in peace…or war. Lilae has been hunted since the night of her birth. She is the only heir to the human god’s throne.

For centuries the races have been separated by an ancient barrier. Now that the barrier is crumbling and vanishing, the races are once again pitted against one another.

For years Lilae and her surrogate family have avoided the dangerous Shadow Elf that hunts her. Years of training seem lost when Lilae is captured and enslaved by the emperor of an enemy race. Through every hardship and moment of torture, Lilae finds comfort only in the strange man from her dreams.

On the other side of the world, Liam leads his army of Tryan���s across the realm to protect his people from Shadow Elves that are invading his land now that the barrier is broken. With his best friend, his betrothed, a fairy, and a specialized order of soldiers, he sets out on a journey to find a grand weapon that can aid him in this inevitable realm war.

The plan seems clear, until Liam dreams of Lilae… and Lilae falls for the emperor that made her his slave.

Lilae watched them in silence. She could feel their fear, knowing their hearts were thumping with terror of the unknown. She wanted them to feel that fear. It was the same fear countless others had felt when those men harmed them. Risa was right about one thing: their weapons were cheap. But these were not boys; they were men who had done this countless times, with success. This would be their last.

���Who’s there?��� someone shouted in a high-pitched voice that cracked with his words.

���Demons!��� another wailed.

���Shut up, Gred. There ain���t no stupid demons in this forest!��� Lilae heard someone reply, yet she could hear the fear in his voice as if he were uncertain about his own reassurances.

���I told you we shouldn���t tempt the Ancients! We���re too close to The Barrier!���

Lilae worked quickly, hoping to get some action before Jaiza killed them all with her skilled archery. She took a deep breath and her vision changed. She could see their moves before they even did them. Everything stilled for her; all sounds muted, and Lilae activated her Focus.

Silence welcome Lilae as she raced into the battle, calculating their every action.

She darted into the mob, with her dagger in her fist. She sliced Gred down before he even saw her coming. Lilae didn���t waste time making sure he was dead. Her dagger had cut his throat with such precision that there were no doubts.

She slammed into a tall, burly man who seemed more like a solid tree. His body was made of pure muscle, hard as stone. Lilae climbed his body and stabbed him in the neck. Blood spurted into the air.

As he fell backward, his hands racing to cover his wound, she hopped from his body and went on to the next. She didn���t need to look back; Lilae always struck true. She could hear him gasping for breath.

Someone grabbed Lilae by her hair from behind. She growled in annoyance and used her Evasion. Her image flickered before his eyes, and in an instant, she swirled out of his grasp. She kicked him in the back with such force that she heard his spine crack.

His scream resonated throughout the woods, drowning out her angry yell at him for having unraveled her long red braid. Lilae put him out of his misery, pouncing onto his back. Her hands were secure against his thick, coarse beard as she snapped his neck.

She stood and swirled around. The remaining men were laying on the ground, covered in blood and dirt. Jaiza���s arrows protruded from their bodies. Lilae calmed her breathing. Only three kills. Better than nothing.
