Release Day Blitz..Lyric by Molly McAdams

Lyric

A stand-alone romance novel in the Rebel series – a Redemption series spin-off

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Molly McAdams delivers the first captivating, stand-alone novel in her REDEMPTION series spin-off—the REBEL series . . .

I’m not the kind of girl you forget.

I wish I was.

I wish I was normal.

That I could blend into a crowd. Have a future with the man I’ve loved my entire life…

Maxon James understands me in a way others can’t.

For as long as I can remember, he’s vowed that one day he would claim my wild, rebel heart. God knows I wanted him to try. I wanted the life he promised me in his lyrics.

But his assurances couldn’t change the past, and the infamous mafia blood in my veins guarantees my heart can’t be claimed.

Somewhere along the way, I slipped. I let myself believe we could have it all. Now a dark, menacing shadow hovers between us, mocking us for daring to hope for a normal future.

And it’s come to collect on a blood oath.

My name’s Elizabeth Borello—Libby for short. Don’t worry about forgetting it… He hasn’t.

Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband, daughter, and fur babies. When she’s not diving into the world of her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and long walks on the beach … which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. She has a weakness for crude-humored movies and fried pickles, and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm … or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados. That way she can pretend they aren’t really happening.

Release Day Blitz….Seducing Kaden by Siobhan Davis

Seducing Kaden, an all-new taboo romance from USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis is LIVE!

Kaden

The woman I love will never be mine because she already belongs to another.

I’ve tried everything to forget her, but it’s impossible when she occupies a starring role in my dreams. My eyes are glued to her shapely curves whenever I see her around campus, and it doesn’t help that she looks as miserable as I feel.

I wonder if she misses me as much as I miss her.

Short of putting a bullet through the skull of that gangster she’s married to, I’m stuck in a hellhole of my own making.

Until fate intervenes, setting us on a collision course we can’t avoid.

Evelina

When I was a little girl, I dreamed of falling in love. The all-consuming sweep-you-off-your-feet kind of love I swooned over in movies.

It didn’t take long for that fairytale notion to come crashing down around me. Now I’m trapped in a marriage I despise with no way out.

The only light in the dark is Kaden Kennedy—the one true love of my life. He doesn’t know he is, because I’m forced to love him from afar, condemned to toss and turn at night, crying over everything I want and all I can never have.

Seeing him day in, day out, destroys me, but there’s no other choice; I had to push him away to keep him safe.

Because if my husband ever finds out I’m in love with another man, I won’t be the only one in danger.

While you don’t need to read the earlier books in this series to enjoy Seducing Kaden, it is highly recommended. This book is a contemporary new adult romance, and it is only suitable for readers aged eighteen and older due to mature content, sexual situations, and language.

This story includes details of an extramarital affair, so if you don’t like cheating or controversial storylines, then this book isn’t for you.

Synopsis

Everly wasn’t excited over her impending meeting with the enigmatic Prince Sage. Being one of only four women from whom the Prince gets to choose in marriage was never something she valued. Her goal was to politely and elegantly remove herself from a forced wedding due to long standing traditions. Handsome Prince or not, she won’t marry for anything but love.

Once Sage proceeds to the next candidate, Everly finally feels she can move forward with her life. On her own terms. That is, until she receives a mysterious request, asking her to solve a riddle, taking her on a night she’ll never forget.

A fervent adventure ensues, and attraction builds as the excitement of the night unfolds. Sparks fly in more ways than one just as she finds out who’s stealing her heart.

I have to first say that I love when I read Lauren’s work, she never writes in one genre. One book will be hot and steamy and then the next one, sweet and loving. And I love that about Lauren. She writes what comes to her and she does it so well. ok – onto the story at hand.

Sparks Fly is one of Lauren’s more sweet and loving reads. But this story is so much more than that. Not only do I love this story as a romance. But I love the important meaning behind the story – helping others for the greater good. I cried in this book because of the humanitarian efforts mentioned. The selflessness of these characters is inspiring. Yes, they are fictional people but damn that make you want to get up and do something.

Sage is set to be the next King and he must choose his wife by his 25th birthday. There are certain rules an criteria that he must follow in choosing his bride to be. However, for the last few years of his life, he has been hidden away from the limelight and living his life his way. He does not agree with a lot of the traditions that he must follow and his marriage is just another aspect he does not like.

Everly is one of the four women Sage’s father has approved of as a suitable woman to become Sage’s future wife and Queen of Canterbury. However, she unlike the other three, wants nothing to do with marrying the young prince. She wants to follow her dreams and marry a man she loves, not just for the prestige and wealth.

“Nothing is what you think. You have to find the truth in everything. At the end, is where we will begin.”

This quote explains this book perfectly. I love how Lauren played Sage and Everly’s story out. It may be a whirlwind romance, but it’s not short of it’s suspense and turns. And as I said earlier, the selflessness of these two was so appeasing, it just made the story sweeter.

A light, enjoyable and sweet read from Lauren that I would recommend to anyone.

Her Defiant Heart by Monica Murphy
Publication Date: March 29^th, 2018
Genre: New Adult Romance

Life can feel like a cruel joke. I grew up poor and motherless, with a father who never got over his wife’s abandonment. But now he’s gone too, and I’m dead set on finding the woman who so carelessly tossed me aside when I was a baby.

I want revenge. And I’m going to get back at my mother any way that I can.

I change my name. Start my new life in college, and just happen to cross paths with the gorgeous, ultra-rich Rhett Montgomery. He’s immediately interested in me, not that I’m surprised.

You see, I planned it that way. I meant for him to find me. He’s the one connection to my mother, and I’m using him, so I can destroy her. But I didn’t plan on Rhett being so charming. Sweet. Sexy.

And I definitely didn’t plan on falling for him either…

Lauren captivated me with those big brown eyes of hers, and
I knew my life would never be the same. What started out as friendship, has
turned into so much more.I was shocked when Tristian asked for my number. There hasn’t been a day since
that I haven’t heard from him. He may be the drummer, but that deep sexy voice,
it turns me inside out.

I assumed it would be one and done, but that’s not how our story ends.

I worry it’s not what he wants. He tells me he’s Definite.

This book gets right to the point! Kaylee Ryan always captivates me with her writing and Definite most definitely got my attention from the beginning. I love how Lauren and Tristian come into each other’s lives. The opening of the book was a perfect way to start their love story. Kaylee Ryan does not dangle this love story right in front of the readers face but just gets right too it. It is actually a nice change of pace to a romance reader because I did not see what happens to this couple coming their way.

Lauren and Tristian are so in love and reading their love story was quite enjoyable. Tristian knows what he wants and just goes and gets it. Honestly, if you want a quick read without all the drama of how a couple finally becomes a couple- Definite is a great choice. I read it as a stand-alone and could keep up with all the characters with no problem. In fact, I will read the first two just because I enjoyed this one.

Holden sees things.
Lots of things.
Things we would call ugly, but he believes are beautiful.

He paints sad pictures.
And strums lonely guitars.
He drowns out the taunting voices while shunning the expected norms.

I let them hurt him.
I wasn’t strong enough to speak out.
I hurt him, too, only to prove I wasn’t just like him.

But then I saw him.
I heard him.
I learned why Holden wasn’t CRAZY like they said.

I loved him MADLY.
I fell for him DEEPLY.
And alone, I decided to save a man who was the most beautiful of us all.

Menace by Laramie Brisco…Release Blitz with Review

Title: Menace

A Moonshine Task Force Series Novel

Author: Laramie Briscoe

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: March 9, 2018

Blurb

Mason “Menace”
Harrison“Single and ready to mingle……”

Those are the words above every picture of almost every female that strikes my
interest on this dating app my son talked me into getting. After being a single
dad for seventeen years, I’m ready to spread my wings, just not with most of
the co-eds who keep hitting on me and calling me daddy.

Now that Caleb’s in his Senior year of high school, I feel like I can let go of
the iron-clad control I’ve had on myself without his Mom in our lives. I’ve
enjoyed raising him, love the relationship we have, and while he went off the
rails for a bit last year, we’re closer than we’ve ever been. He’s got a full
ride to the University of Alabama, and I’ve settled into my spot with the
Moonshine Task Force.

But my son doesn’t warm my bed, he isn’t someone I can share my dreams with,
and he’s not the person I want to grow old with by my side. I’m not sure who
that is yet, but the smokin’ hot lady going by the name BeachBum83 definitely
has every single bit of my interest.

Karina Holland

“Looking for a good time, maybe more…..”

Those were the lamest words I ever typed in my life, but it was the best I had
for the dating app my friend, Violet talked me into joining. I didn’t have any
high hopes for myself. As a High School English teacher, I’m sick of pervy
Dad’s hitting on me when they come in to discuss their child’s lack of
motivation to read the classics and apply themselves.

Until the day Mason Harrison walks into my classroom. I had no idea Caleb’s Dad
was the man I met off that dating app who showed me how flexible I really am in
the back of his Jeep. Within minutes of the parent/teacher conference he proved
the sparks weren’t one-time only when we christened my desk.

Mason and Caleb? They touch a part of my heart that no one’s ever touched
before, and when a threat from the past shows up, I prove just how tough I
really am.

Okay I am just in LOVE with Laramie Briscoe’s books. I am truly professing it right here-right now. I had the pleasure of being a new reader last year and she is not disappointing me. I know that I am bias to a tattoo police office story but let me tell you when that said officer is a hot, caring, loving dad of a teenager- I mean come on- I am more than hooked.

Laramie has this uncanny ability to take real life situations and transform them into hot, steamy, sexy written words. I love the dynamic of these characters, Mason (aka Menace) and Karina. They are a great couple to read individually and together. They actually meet on a dating app and you just want both of them not to be lonely any more. Karina is Mason’s sons teacher which makes quite an interesting situation but it is so fun to read how this plays out.

Menace is a great addition to the Moonshine Task Force series. This book is a fast read because it gets right to the point (*wink-wink) but it doesn’t start strong and end dull. There are some twist and turns that were absolutely wonderful and refreshing to read. For real people, you have to pick up at least one of Laramie Briscoe’s novels because you will not be disappointed.

I am so happy that I was able to read the second book in this series and let me tell you- A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!! The first book Max Henry wrote, Desire, was good but Regret is amazing! Seriously, I devoured this book in two days. That being said it is a series but I do think that you could possibly read it as a standalone since you will get the idea that Belle is not supposed to be with her dad’s best friend, Zeus. I know, I know, dad’s best friend? Don’t worry because while he is older than Belle, he is also younger than John (Belle’s dad).

Now let me get to the nitty gritty of it- Zeus-ummmm hello- a man down on luck but trying so hard to better himself. The way he loves Belle, ugh, just put butterflies in my stomach! He is such a great book boyfriend ladies. I love him even more in Regret. It is a forbidden romance that neither one of them are quite sure they want to get tangled up in again. Plus, Belle has been gone for three years in another country. Things have changed but the love they have for each other is so hard to deny! It is as if Max Henry gave her all in this book and it shows. She writes, “It’s everything; how our love is viewed and persecuted by those who don’t understand it, the struggles we face, the adversity. He is the serpent, and I am the dove”. That right there ladies and gentlemen explains what this book is about and it is such a great read!

About the Author

For as long as she can remember, Max has always had a love of the macabre and thought provoking side to life.

Which probably stands to reason why each of her books takes the reader on an emotional journey that not only promises twists, turns, and suspense, but a heart-wrenching journey where her motto holds true:

Love never comes easy.

When she’s not lost in an alternate world – fuelled by coffee and the odd sneaky bowl of chocolate (preferably M&Ms) – she spends her days as a wife to a dedicated husband, mother to two rambunctious boys, and an obsessive petrolhead enjoying the muscle on display at the local car shows.

Secret Lucidity by E.K. Blair….Release Day Blitz & Review

Title: Secret Lucidity

Author: E.K. Blair

Genre: Student/Teacher Forbidden Romance

Release Date: February 26, 2018

Blurb

This wasn’t
supposed to happen.

But it did.

This wasn’t
supposed to be my life.

But it was.

I was just a typical
girl, living a typical life. Nothing was out of the ordinary until tragedy
threw me into a turnstile I couldn’t see my way out of. That was, until him.

I never could’ve
imagined my heart falling the way it did. Hard, fast, and with unbounding beauty.

The only problem?

He was off limits.

Forbidden.

But he became my
everything, and I became his, so we risked it all. It was only a matter of time
until I realized that our risk came with unimaginable consequences.

My name is Camellia
Hale and his is David Andrews, and this is our love story.

AUDIBLE

I feel like I am hitting some sort of book slump because I keep finding myself in the minority on books where everyone else is loving them. It’s sort of frustrating because I feel like I am missing something. LOL But it is what it is.

Secret Lucidity was a good book. I enjoyed it. But I wasn’t “wow’d” by it like other readers. It was another right down the middle enjoyable read. Secret Lucidity was a slow burn romance for me. I was hoping to get more angst but I still didn’t mind the overall story. It’s a forbidden student/teacher romance and I just felt that there wasn’t a huge build up for that drama.

Cam is going through a very traumatic moment in her life when David comes in to her life. She never expected him or for things to go the way they did. I did like how Ms. Blair had the romance between Cam and David move forward and play out. I will say that I personally felt that in the beginning it almost felt like she relied on David because he filled the role the one person she just lost. However, it felt natural for them and nothing felt forced after things became open between the two of them.

There were certain moments where things was glazed over too. I understand that certain parts are import to the overall story, but if you aren’t going to clarify certain parts in a scene, then don’t mention them at all because it sort of leaves things open and the whole story doesn’t feel complete.

The secondary characters were definitely a needed part of this story. They helped add the drama to the situation and kept the story interesting. Cam’s mother was a piece of work but I felt her actions were glazed over the most and wanted a bit more from that aspect.

Overall, I did enjoy the story. I did want more angst and drama added in the overall story because it just felt like slow burn romance with some bits of angst here and there.
