RELEASE DATE: AUGUST 30TH, 2021

Synopsis

From NYT and USA Today bestselling author A.L. Jackson comes a single-dad, enemies-to-lovers stand-alone romance about a jaded club owner and his son’s teacher…

Eden Murphy came into my club looking to make some extra cash.

A girl like her didn’t belong in a place like this.

She’d get ripped to shreds.

Most likely by me.

There’s nothing but sweetness dripping from her sexy little body, and I’m the monster who’s salivating to get a taste.

Trent Lawson is the last man I should want.

Dark.

Dangerous.

So wickedly gorgeous he makes my knees weak.

He’s also an arrogant jerk who happens to be my new boss.

When I discover his adorable son is also in my kindergarten class, I know I have to keep my distance.

But neither of us can ignore the attraction that flames.

One glance, and our hearts race.

One touch, and we’re aching for what we can’t have.

One night, and we’re falling fast.

Dragging her into my sordid world is wrong.

It doesn’t matter.

Eden Murphy is mine.

Cover Reveal…The Lie by Karla Sorensen

by Courtney

Release Date: September 15

Rule number 1 for the team owner’s daughter? Don’t date the players.

Especially not hotheaded tight ends with tattoos and impulse control problems.

That’s why Dominic Walker is completely off my radar. Sort of.

Babysitting the team troublemaker when he’s forced to volunteer for the foundation where I work means I can’t exactly avoid him.

I wish I had though. Because once I get to know Dominic, it’s almost impossible to ignore the feelings he brings out in me.

Pretty soon, I’m breaking all my rules. I just have to hope he doesn’t break my heart in the process.

Meet Karla Sorensen

Well, let’s see … I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone’s face, then I’ve done my job.

I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob.

If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies.

I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I’ll love you forever.

Nash Harris is a man on the verge of getting everything he’s dreamed of. Everything he’s worked for. Everything he’s ever wanted. There’s only one thing standing between him and a million barrels of crude oil. A sexy, smart, mouthwatering woman.

EMBER

They say everything’s bigger in Texas—including Nash Harris’s ego. Falling for a man like Nash was easy. The man’s an addictive dance of dominance, intellectual conversation, and hidden scars. If she isn’t careful, she’ll let him rob her blind like a welcomed thief stealing pieces of her heart, hiding them in his pocket next to her panties.

Beverly woke up one morning from a horrible dream that her husband had died and she was in Bora Bora saying her goodbyes. After weeks of worry and torment, she realized it was simply a bad dream and her husband wasn’t going anywhere. However, she still thought about that tiny fragment of a dream for months before turning it into No More Wasted Time.

She lives in Las Vegas with her husband, four kids, and two golden retrievers. If she’s not spinning richly emotional stories, you’ll find her on her spin bike.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Things I Wanted To Say (But Never Did) by Monica Murphy

by Courtney

Things I Wanted To Say (But Never Did) by Monica Murphy is now live!

Whit Lancaster burst into my life like a storm. Dark and thunderous, furious and fierce. Cold, heartless and devastatingly beautiful, like the statues in our prep school gardens. The school with his family name on the sign. He can do no wrong here. This is his domain.

He’s a menace on campus. Adored and feared. Hated and respected. His taunting words carve into my skin, shredding me to ribbons. Yet his intense gaze scorches my blood, fills me with a longing I don’t understand.

When I stumble upon him one night alone, I find him broken. Bleeding. My instincts scream to leave and let him suffer, but I can’t. I sneak him into my room. Clean him up. Fall for his lies. Let him possess every single part of me until I’m the one left a gasping, broken mess.

When he leaves me alone in the dead of night, he takes my journal with him.

Now he knows all my secrets. My hate. My truth. And he promises to use my words against me. I’ll be ruined if my darkest secret gets out.

That’s when I strike a bargain with the devil.

I’ll let Whit Lancaster ruin me behind closed doors instead.

Who knew that Monica Murphy could write a book that would leave me shocked. LOL

Monica Murphy’s newest standalone, Things I Wanted to Say (But Never Did), is a YA bully romance and she knocked this one out!!!

I have read plenty of books my Monica and know that she can be sweet and endearing but also write some heavy subjects. But she’s once again shocked me (I truly should not be surprised any more) that she can also write and deliver dark characters with dark undertones.

I think what threw me the loop was that I have been reading her college and YA stories for quite a bit now and to read something that is a 180 of those plot lines and characters, it’s almost as though I am reading something by a new author. But I am not!!

Anyway – I digress. This book and these characters! WOW!!

Whit is a dick. He is and he knows it too. I hated him for the majority of this book and loved it when Summer would keep him check unintentionally. In the end, I absolutely loved him but he’s a dick. LOL

Summer is Whit’s equal in so many different ways. Yes, I wrote that correctly. She’s his equal in opposite ways and I love it. She does annoy me at times with her back and forth. I wanted her to not contradict herself so much.

Overall, I thoroughly loved this book. I devoured it quickly. My only reason for not rating this higher was the length. I felt that it was drug out too long and there too many instances that felt repetitive without any development in the plot or characters. Other than that, this book was amazing and hope to see other characters get their books in the future.

Meet Monica

Monica Murphy is a New York Times, USA Today and international bestselling romance author. Her books have been translated in almost a dozen languages and have sold over two million copies worldwide. Both a traditionally published and independently published author, she writes young adult, new adult and contemporary romance. She’s also known as USA Today bestselling author Karen Erickson.

A native Californian, she lives on fourteen acres in the middle of nowhere with her husband, two kids, one dog, and four cats. When she’s not writing, she’s an assistant coach for her daughter’s high school cheer team, which is a two season sport. Meaning, she’s at practice with a bunch of teenage girls all the time. Or she’s at a football game. Or a basketball game. Maybe someday, she’ll even write about this experience.

Cover Reveal…Then You Saw Me by Carrie Aarons

by Courtney

Carrie Aarons has revealed the cover for Then You Saw Me!

Releasing August 12, 2021

You know what’s guaranteed to send your heart into your throat? Opening the front door of your off-campus house to find the boy you had a crush on all through high school telling you he’s the new subletter.

Of course, he barely knew I existed back then, and still doesn’t even though we attend the same university. But in a house of six college kids, it should be easy to remain invisible while carrying a torch for him. After all, I’m skilled at being overlooked and playing second fiddle.

Except Austin Van Hewitt, my hometown’s golden boy, doesn’t get the memo. After we throw our first party of the year, I’m on his radar and somehow my lips miraculously end up on his. The budding romance is one I’ve always dreamt about. As he shows more and more interest, I push aside the plaguing insecurity of never being good enough.

But then a letter shows up in our mailbox. A time capsule I wrote to myself when I was fifteen. You know, the kind where a teacher sends it to you years later? Guess who opens it by mistake and reads all about how I plan on marrying him and having his babies one day? Did I mention I signed it using his last name?

Mortifying would be an understatement. After he starts pulling away, I’m once again the girl in the background hoping that someone will understand me enough to pay me all of their attention.

The old me, the one conditioned to settle for what she’s given, would back down. This time, though, if I want everything I almost held in my hands, I’ll have to speak up. I’ll have to admit exactly how I feel, fight for the love that was blossoming. And I’m not sure what’s scarier; voicing my inner thoughts or facing his ultimate rejection.

Cover Reveal…The Aristocrat by Penelope Ward

Title: The Aristocrat

Author: Penelope Ward

Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance

Cover Design: Letitia Hasser, RBA Designs

Photo: Alejandro Brito

Model: Kacey Carrig

Release Date: August 30, 2021

BLURB

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?

Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer.

From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.

Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own—watching me watching Leo.

That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them.

Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.

Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.

Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn’t seem to stay away.

It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we’d fallen in love.

We both had one wish: more time together.

But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I’d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back.

A part of me always felt like I’d let my soulmate walk away.

I believed our story was over.

Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core.

I’d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?

Well, I knew nothing yet.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Brazen by Willa Nash

by Courtney

The Brazen by Willa Nash is now live!

Kerrigan Hale’s personal life is about as exciting as a bucket of tar. With hard work and hustle as her steadfast companions, who needs romance or adventure? Her empire in Calamity, Montana, isn’t going to build itself.
For years, her mentor–and investor–helped make her dreams come true. Until his unexpected death put her fate in his grandson’s hands. A brazen billionaire, he seems intent on ruining Kerrigan’s life.

But if Pierce Sullivan thinks she’ll go down without a fight, he’s sorely mistaken. Pushed to the extreme, she drives to his ritzy mountain lodge to force the arrogant You Can Call Me Mr. Sullivan to hear her out.

No sooner does she arrive than a snowstorm traps her with Pierce. Stranded together for days, she’s in for the battle of her life. Pierce is nearly irresistible by candlelight. Without his suits and fancy cars, he’s almost human.

Except only a fool would let down her guard. And Kerrigan can’t risk her future. Not when she doesn’t know if he’s out to pilfer her dreams . . . or to steal her heart.

The Brazen is Willa’s newest installment in her Calamity Montana series. You truly do not need to read any of the previous books in this series to read this one.

If you have read the other books, Kerrigan has lived in Calamity her whole life. And now she is taking her love for interior decorating and construction and building Calamity up building by building.

Willa gives readers everything you need to know about this book. This is definitely an enemies to lovers romance and it’s riddled with lots of heat and passion.

Kerrigan is a very strong woman and never backs down from anyone. She knows what she wants and goes after it. I love her determination and confidence.

Pierce has taken over his grandfather’s business and just wants to wipe it all clean. But Kerrigan is more than what he is expecting. While Pierce too does not back down from anyone, he is finding it quite difficult to walk way from Kerrigan.

While some of the nuances of this story might sound too cliché, it’s Willa’s writing and her characters that set this story apart.

Willa kept me on my toes and had me very much engrossed in this story from start to finish. I am quite intrigued to see what happens in the next book….

Meet Willa

Willa Nash is USA Today Bestselling Author Devney Perry’s alter ego, writing contemporary romance stories for Kindle Unlimited.

Release Day Blitz & Review….Exposed by Kristen Callihan

by Courtney

Exposed (VIP #4) by Kristen Callihan is now live!

Brenna

There are some people in life who know exactly how to push your buttons. For me, it’s Rye Peterson. We can’t spend more than ten minutes together before we’re at each other’s throats, which makes working together that much harder. Rye is the bassist for Kill John, the biggest rock band in the world, and I am his publicist. It doesn’t help that the man is gorgeous, funny, talented, and…never takes anything seriously. Avoidance is key.

But everything changes when he overhears something he shouldn’t: a confession made in a moment of weakness. Now the man I’ve tried so hard to ignore is offering me the greatest temptation of all—him.

Rye

Brenna James is the one. The one I can’t have. The one I can’t get out of my mind. Believe me, I’ve tried; the woman loathes me. I managed well enough—until I heard her say she’s as lonely as I am. That she needed to be touched, held, satisfied. And I could no longer deny the truth: I wanted to be the one to give her what she craved.

I convinced her that it would just be sex, mutual satisfaction with nothing deeper. But the moment I have her, she becomes my world. I’ve never given her a good reason to trust me before. Now, I’ve got to show Brenna that we’re so much better together than we ever were apart.

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/3fOg0Sx

Exposed is the fourth book in Kristen’s VIP series. This series is one of my favorites for Rockstar romances and I have been oh-so-patiently waiting for Exposed to release. And it was damn well worth the wait.

Exposed is Brenna and Rye’s book. While you don’t need to read any of the previous books to read this one, I would still highly encourage you to read them in order.

Brenna and Rye are like water and oil. They do not get along; they are always ripping into one another for one thing or another.

One night, Rye overhears Brenna’s situation and wants to help her out. Not only does the offer for help throw Brenna off-kilter, but it’s what he wants to do that truly knocks her down.

Callihan wrote this story beautifully. I loved how things just seem to progress so naturally and real. I loved the honesty from both characters; how raw and real they were with one another and themselves. I can’t say it enough – this story progress so naturally and real, I forgot I was reading a book.

Callihan’s words just floated off the pages. Her writing is like a balm to my soul. As soon as I started reading this book, everything from the previous books came flooding back and it was as though I just read those (don’t need to read them but it helps give you an overall feel for the dynamics of secondary characters).

Exposed is another reason why this series rocks. I really hope we get one more book and it is Whip’s!!!

Release Day Blitz & Review….The Rulebreaker by Claire Contreras

by Courtney

He’s a player. I’m a virgin. Yet, I can’t seem to stop myself.

The Rulebreaker by Claire Contreras is now live!

Maverick Cruz and I started off as pen pals and became besties when we went to the same sports camp at age twelve.

He rooted for me at my soccer games.
I cheered for him at his hockey tournaments.

Through heartbreaks, new relationships, and failed friendships, we knew we could always count on each other.

That’s why no one is more surprised–or panicked– than I am when I start to develop different feelings for him. But Instead of telling him the truth, I agree to help him find a girlfriend.

Someone who is not me.

Someone who is so opposite of me that I have to make a list for the charade. The problem is, he wants to practice his dating skills with me. The corny pickup lines, the hand-holding, the door opening, the staring.

Before this, I thought sharing a house with him was an excellent idea. Who wouldn’t want to room with their best friend? Now, the close proximity is killing me. What’s worse is that I can’t stop looking at him like he’s a Greek god, and he can’t stop seeing me as his virginal little sister. Still, I push it aside, until one night, when he’s lying beside me in bed and I’m the one who forgets the rules and crosses the line between friends and something more.

It’s a horrible idea. He’s a player. I’m a virgin. Yet, I can’t seem to stop myself.

New item on my list: DO NOT FALL FOR YOUR BEST FRIEND.

Amazon: https://amzn.to/3fSYUEE

Amazon Worldwide: mybook.to/TheRulebreaker

Goodreads: https://bit.ly/3wWdDUF

The Rulebreaker is Claire’s next sports romance that focuses on Maverick and Rocky.
I love Claire’s ability to blend the sports aspects beautifully with the romance and deliver an entertaining read.
Mav & Rocky are best friends and are both very dedicated to their sports. They’ve been extremely supportive of each other and always there for another with everything else.
Now that they’re older and in college, things are starting to blur, but neither wants to ruin their friendship.
I really enjoyed how this story played out. Mav & Rocky are both mature college students and Claire stays true to that. She doesn’t sacrifice characteristic changes to fit a particular narrative to develop the story. The whole plot plays out naturally and real.
I really enjoy Claire’s writing style. I can sense she pulls alot from her own experience and that just adds another layer to the stories. It also makes them more authentic and real.
The Rulebreaker is another great sports romance from Claire that I’d highly recommend.

When M isn’t in the cave writing her next epic love story, you will find her shopping and living on a boat in Florida with her real life pirate, her lobster, her husband Bossman. Sipping on Starbucks and hanging out with their two dogs, a German shepherd mix and a gordito Wheaten Terrier reading a good book. Or spending time with her family, who she is extremely close with.

Above all, M loves her readers more than anything and loves to connect with them! She is on all social media platforms but you will find her in her happy place the most. Her VIP Reader Group on Facebook or her second favorite happy place, Instagram.
