Release Day Blitz & Review…Compel by Rachel Van Dyken & Patti Stanger

by Courtney

Compel by Rachel Van Dyken & Patti Stanger is now live!

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken and bestselling author Patti Stanger comes a gripping love story of cursed soulmates who are forced to relive tragedy over and over again until their curse is broken…

Compelled to seduce, designed to kill.

What do you do when your love destroys the only person you are designed to be with?

For centuries I’ve been trapped in a curse with my soulmate, only she has no idea… until history finally repeats itself.

The Matchmaker of the Fae felt wronged when we both chose our own destinies, and now, we’re forced to relive our fate over and over again.

I try like hell to fix the curse, but I remember nothing after each death, only that I’m lonely and heartbroken.

The small town of Orca Cove, Oregon, doesn’t help matters.

Filled with paranormal lore from all over the world… if anything, they’re just as trapped as I am.

My only help is the large library on my estate.

If I can just find the notes I know I would have hidden, along with texts, maybe this time will be different.

The house groans with need for its mistress.

My heart breaks with sorrow that she doesn’t recognize me until it’s too late.

Her blood will always be on my hands, just like her heart is in mine.

The path to your soul mate isn’t a fairytale—at least ours isn’t.

My Fae queen thinks she’s nothing more than a normal college student. She believes that the world is just as she sees it, without a clue that the darkness lurking in the shadows, the man she’ll fall for once again, the man who will be her demise…

Is me.

Compel is co-written by both Rachel Van Dyken and Patti Stanger. The blurb gives you fantasy vibes with a dark twist.

This book was definitely interesting and honestly, I am still uncertain on my exact feelings.

I am a huge fantasy (and paranormal) reader and this book was definitely different from any that I have read in either genre. I struggled with the beginning of this book and even the rest of the way through, found everything very vague for a fantasy read.

I enjoyed the premise of this story, it just lacked of world and character development for a fantasy read (definitely not a paranormal read). The descriptions of the characters were very vague (minus hair color which seemed to be prominent) and while it’s set in today’s world, I felt like it lacking something.

I enjoy the overall idea of this book. There were things that worked for me and things that didn’t. If certain things were more developed, I would have truly loved this book more.

Release Day Blitz & Review…How To Lose At Love by Sara Ney

by Courtney

Release Date: January 19

I needed a good girl to save my bad reputation.

With too much on my plate, the very last thing on my mind was a relationship—the football draft was looming and dating got in the way. I never understood why my teammates bothered with girlfriends. None of us had the time.

When my sports agent suggested that being seen in public with a respectable girl would begoodfor mybadreputation, I couldn’t think of a single person to help me out. The only girls I knew weren’t wifey material, and the ones who were? Might catch feelings.

Except Ryann Winters.

Responsible. Sarcastic. Smart. Ryann was perfect but there wasoneclincher: she was my teammates ex-girlfriend and I had recently beenpaidby him to dump her.

Not the best start to a fake relationship…

Release Day Blitz & Review…Because I’m Yours by Claire Contreras

by Courtney

Because I’m Yours by Claire Contreras is now live!

Lenora De Luca

I’ve always been a good girl.
The perfect daughter.
The perfect sister.
And, in two weeks, I’m supposed to become the perfect wife.
I don’t know or like the man my father chose to marry me off to but I have no say in the matter.
That’s why when I see Rocco Marchetti, the man I’ve had a crush on my entire life, I decide he’ll be my first.
When he looks at me it’s electric and I know he wants me.
We keep stealing glances and hiding smiles, but I want more.
I want one night with him.
So what if I’m the daughter of the most feared man in organized crime?
So what if he’s my overprotective brother’s best friend?
It’s just one night.

Rocco Marchetti

Lenora De Luca is as forbidden as they get.
She’s also kind, and thoughtful, and makes my d . . . makes it hard to think.
It starts off innocent enough, just flirting, but then she kisses me and tells me she wants to spend one night with me.
It’s wrong on so many levels, but I don’t even try to deny that I want her.
I tell myself that it’ll be her wedding present (I know I’m sick, get over it).
I’ve had plenty one nightstands that end amicably.
Lenora can’t possibly be any different.
As long as her brother doesn’t find out, things will be fine.
I usually strategize and think through every decision, but something about her makes me walk right into the fire.

Forbidden romance. Sibling’s best friend and childhood crush. Forced proximity and arranged marriage. Then add in the maifia aspect and you get Because I’m Yours by Claire Contreras.

I cannot get over this book. I was hooked from the very beginning and just drug under for the entire duration of this story. Good heavens I never wanted it to end.

Rocco is a man feared by many. Not much can shake him, except Lenora and her one wish. Rocco has never been one to deny himself anything that he wants. But Lenora isn’t exactly freely available to him.

Lenora has been raise in a very controlled lifestyle within the mafia and never defied any of the rules set before her. However, her limit is an arranged marriage. She’s not giving in so little but if she has no say, then she’s at least living out her best life beforehand.

Claire did a brilliant job writing one hell of a tension and angsty filled story. Rocco will do anything to protect Lenora, but who’s going to protect him and Lenora from one another. Their chemistry is off the charts and impossible to ignore.

GAH!! I LOVED IT ALL!!!!

GO READ THIS ONE! And yes, it can be read as a standalone within this series.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Act of Trusting by Lexi Bissen

by Courtney

The Act of Trusting by Lexi Bissen is now live!

There was a sadness in her clear, gray eyes that I could see she tried to hide. A fight with her inner demons she didn’t want to show anyone…

Camden Collins
Life was going well for me. I was on the right track: captain of the soccer team, grades were passing, and I had the respect of my team. Girls threw themselves at me. It was every twenty-year-old’s dream.
Then I saw her…
One look at her, and it all changed. Something about her drew me in. A sense of protectiveness to guard this small, sad girl. In her eyes, I could see the fight she had within herself…and I wanted to be there for her. To protect her and be someone to lean on while she fought whatever it was. Nothing else seemed to matter but the dark-haired, beautiful girl I couldn’t stay away from.

Blaire Wentworth
I wasn’t the same girl I was four years ago. My life was stolen from me one night and I’d never have the chance to get old me back. Now I was just existing, not living. I went through the motions of my everyday routine, staying quiet and keeping to myself. Trusting and letting people in was a constant struggle.
Until he showed up…
I’d never seen someone like him before. Not once had I described a guy as beautiful, but that’s what he was. He struck something in me, and I didn’t know how to handle that. I was chasing nightmares no one knew about. Ones I kept to myself for a reason. Could I let this new person into my life that I had kept closed off from many for far too long? What if I let my guard down and he ended up destroying me?
And that became my greatest fear…

I waited a few days after I finished this one to write my review. I really wasn’t sure how I felt about it and wanted to give this book justice.

The Act of Trusting is a college romance. Camden and Blaire have a very awkward, not-so-cute meet-cute and things just go from there.

The blurb gives you the perfect background to know what you are walking into. Camden and Blaire are complete opposites on the college campus – she likes to remain unseen and he’s the center of attention.

I enjoyed the time frame that this story played out. It wasn’t too fast and it wasn’t too slow; things play out naturally and are fairly realistic. I say fairly because there are a few situations that just felt out of sorts.

I enjoyed Camden and his ability to see past the surface along with his innate need to protect Blaires.

Blaire – girl has been through a lot. She’s strong in so many different ways. However, there is one scene that irks me and I feel that it wasn’t given the proper attention and therefore, showed Blaire as weak.

Overall, it’s not a bad read. It’s right down the middle for me. As much as I enjoyed the characters, there wasn’t anything endearing that made either of them standout from others. Again, not a bad thing, just right down the middle enjoyable.

Release Day Blitz…The Hustler Next Door by K.A. Tucker

by Courtney

He fooled the wrong woman.

The Hustler Next Door by K.A. Tucker is now live!

From the international bestselling author of The Simple Wild and Ten Tiny Breaths comes a new stand-alone enemies-to-lovers, small-town romance.

Justine MacDermott is in what she would call a transition period: squatting in her best friend’s house and working in an appliance store in Polson Falls while the man she was supposed to marry starts a new life with someone else.

She’s definitely not thinking about slashing his tires and wishing his vital extremities would fall off.

When newcomer Garrett Harrington strolls into Murphy’s Appliances looking to buy a refrigerator, Justine convinces herself she’s found her rebound. Or the next love of her life. Either works. But a chance encounter leads her to discover that Garrett isn’t who he made himself out to be, and he’s more interested in hustling her kindly old boss out of his family business—and using her to do it.

Furious at being fooled by yet another man and itching for retribution, Justine enlists the help of unlikely townsfolk to battle Harrington Group’s big-city development plans for Polson Falls.

It’s all going to plan … until Justine finds herself crossing enemy lines.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Dirty Crazy Bad Two by Siobhan Davis

by Courtney

In the secret society of The Luminaries, no sin will go unpunished…

Dirty Crazy Bad 2, the addictive and jaw-dropping conclusion to the dark reverse-harem Dirty Crazy Bad Duet from USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Siobhan Davis is live now!

The Greed & Gluttony Luminary has trapped us into executing his evil plans, and it seems we have little option but to agree. Carter has orchestrated Chad’s kidnapping, and he holds my mom’s life in his hands.

Then he drops a game-changer

We must play our parts—or at least look like we are—because the fate of our loved ones, and the world at large, depends upon it. There is no choice.

It’s a delicate balancing act, with many obstacles and no guarantee of success. Carter has spent years planning his takeover and knowing who to trust is impossible.

Teamwork is the only way we can defeat him. But that is challenging when relationships are fractured, the guys are sworn enemies, and loyalties have been pushed to their limits.

It’s up to me to make this work, so I will push my grief aside to be there for Ares, Jase, and Chad.

Rhett Carter cannot become Lord of the Luminaries and we’re the only ones that can stop him.

I don’t even know what to say.

DCB2 is even more tantalizing, jaw dropping and suspenseful as DCB1.

Siobhan holds nothing back as she takes readers on an intense & dangerous ride with twists you can’t imagine to deliver a superb ending.

This book (whole duet) is not for the faint of heart as there are some depraved scenes that have your heart breaking. The secret society is more cruel and twisted than you’ll ever envision – they are the law.

Let’s not forget that woven into all that mayhem, is some swoon-worthy and very hot harem romance. Chad, Jase & Ares do not let our girl down in so many ways.

DCB2 is a suspenseful thriller that will keep you guessing til the end. Siobhan packs a heavy story with amazing characters and delivers an epic ending.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Holly Dates by Brittainy Cherry

by Courtney

The Holly Dates by Brittainy Cherry is now live!

All she wanted for Christmas was a boyfriend for the holidays…
All he wanted was for her to take her crappy first dates elsewhere…

Quirky Holly Jackson was unlucky in love, yet her romantic heart refused to give up her search for companionship—even after her fiancé left her at the altar on Christmas Eve.

Grumpy restaurant owner Kai Kane wanted nothing to do with love after his last relationship. Unfortunately for him, when an eccentric Holly kept entering his restaurant nightly with a different first date, his annoyance grew.

When Kai volunteered to help Holly find a suitor it was for one reason only: to get her out of his restaurant and on to a second date with someone at a different location.

Once Kai became Holly’s dating coach, her confidence grew.

It was all going great until Kai became increasingly jealous of the connection Holly developed with another man. The more Holly fell for Kai’s pick for her, the more overprotective he became.

Kai quickly realized that all wasn’t fair when it came to love and the holidays.

He was going to have to step up his game if he wanted a shot at the ultimate prize—being Holly’s favorite date.

*The Holly Dates is a steamy, full-length romantic comedy that will put you right in the holiday spirit.*

I have never been one to read holiday books but I lost count of how many I have read so far this holiday season and each one has been really enjoyable.

The Holly Dates is a cute and funny holiday romance. I breezed through this one quickly and enjoyed each moment of it. I found myself laughing out loud a lot and really enjoying the sweet, romantic moments.

Holly and Kai made me laugh and smile so much. I enjoyed watching their story go from enemies, to friends to more so. One thing that makes their love story so enjoyable is it’s based so much on them loving who the other person is and not just the physical attraction (though, that was hot too!).

This book is a great holiday romance – it has the festive aspect with lots of laughter and romance added in to deliver a great story.

Release Blitz & Review…A Wonderful Lie by Carrie Aarons

by Courtney

A Wonderful Lie by Carrie Aarons is now live!

Everyone lies around the holidays. We lie about the money we’re spending. We lie that we’re following our diets.

What am I lying about this year? The fact that my workplace nemesis has become my friend-with-benefits.

Collin Machlan and I have been each other’s competition since we joined our college’s radio station freshman year. Six years later, we’re both hosting shows for the country’s most popular podcast network.

Just as everything starts turning red and green, our boss announces a promotion, and whoever gets the most listens during this merry season will be crowned the winner.

There is just one catch; the only way to draw an audience in December is to theme every episode around Christmas. For a woman who typically celebrates alone with takeout and slasher flicks, I’m at a big disadvantage.

Going toe-to-toe with the guy I’ve never been able to intimidate is only made harder by the fact that Collin doesn’t seem to want to play our usual games. Add in some mistletoe and a Secret Santa swap, and I finally give in to his shameless flirting.

Maybe it’s the delusion of cuffing season, but suddenly I’m spending every night with him. No one at work knows. Neither does his family, or my friends. I lie that it’s just physical. That me, a self-proclaimed bachelorette, couldn’t possibly be on the brink of a relationship. I lie that we’re still competing for a job he doesn’t even want.

Until one too many lies threatens to topple my life like a crooked tree with poorly-distributed ornaments. And I’m left to decide between my lonely and blue traditions, or a love that lasts all year round.

Looking for a “Hallmark after dark” romance read??? Or even if you’re not, you definitely want to grab this one!

I absolutely loved Collin & Lark. Lark has hated Collin since the moment they met. They’re been sworn enemies from the very beginning, even though Collin has always found Lark extremely attractive.

Their snarky, yet hilarious jabs at one another just add fuel to the already raging chemistry between them. And now they find themselves truly competing against one another for the top spot in podcasts.

Carrie’s newest release is so magical!! It’s the perfect blend of holiday cheer, great humorous moments & that amazing swoon-worthy romance she always bring to her stories, but just a tad spicier!!!

GRAB IT NOW!!

Meet Carrie Aarons

Author of romance novels such as Fool Me Twice and Love at First Fight, Carrie Aarons writes books that are just as swoon-worthy as they are sarcastic. A former journalist, she prefers the love stories of her imagination, and the athleisure dress code, much better.

When she isn’t writing, Carrie is busy binging reality TV, having a love/hate relationship with cardio, and trying not to burn dinner. She lives in the suburbs of New Jersey with her husband, two children and ninety-pound rescue pup.
