Release Day Blitz…Serpentine Valentine by Giana Darling

by Courtney

They would pay for what was done to me, but none more than good girl, Luna Pallas.

Serpentine Valentine by Giana Darling is now live!

From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Giana Darling comes a sapphic, dark academia, Medusa retelling about a woman who was wronged by her idols and refused to pay the price without getting revenge…

I was born a woman.

Raised by women.

In love with women.

Until I enrolled at Acheron University, I’d never known much of men. I certainly didn’t know enough to fear them.

Then one stormy autumnal night, Professor Morgan tried to destroy me.

And when we were discovered by the university President, it was me who was punished for the unwanted seduction.

But they left me with two valuable lessons.

I would never let another woman be hurt by men again if I could help it.

And when someone hurts you, betrays you, and tries to rip out your soul, there is only one remedy for the pain.

Revenge.

And mine takes the form of the President’s very beautiful, very virginal, very straight daughter, Luna Pallas.

Before the end of term, I’ll destroy her innocence just as her mother and Professor Morgan destroyed mine.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Bride by Ali Hazelwood

by Courtney

Misery Lark has always felt like an outsider—as the daughter of a Vampyre councilman, she’s been volun-told to sacrifice her freedom and needs for the good of her kind for her entire life. The newest sacrifice? Upholding a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, by entering an arranged marriage with the Alpha Were. Wedding bells are ringing as Misery is whisked down the aisle to her betrothed, Lowe Moreland. Despite those broad shoulders, brooding stares, and extremely attractive looks, Lowe and Misery despise each other from the get-go. But Misery agreed to this for more than familial obligation and a white dress. Her human best friend, Serena, has been missing for weeks, and Misery has reason to believe she’s in Were territory. It’s impossible to figure out who she can—and can’t—trust…and it may take help from her newly declared “other half” to find her friend and make her heart whole once more.

I absolutely love Ali’s writing style and after reading her The Love Hypothesis series and seeing this was a paranormal story, I did not hesitate at all to jump on this one.

I truly don’t know what to say other than what keeps repeating in my head, “THIS IS BOOK IS FUCKING AWESOME!!”

Ali delivers a very entertaining paranormal romance about forced marriage. I FREAKING LOVE Misery and Lowe and their entanglement. Everything between them unfolded exceptionally well and left me wanting more each time.

This is completely outside Ali’s normal STEM based books but she knocks this book out of the park. Her writing ability is uncanny and I absolute love that I am so easily able to picture each scene in my head.

Bride is highly recommended paranormal read that anyone will enjoy.

Release Day Blitz…Legacy of Temptation by Larissa Ione

by Courtney

The legacy continues…

Legacy of Temptation, the must-read first book in the Demonica Birthright series from New York Times bestselling author Larissa Ione & Blue Box Press is now live!

Eva Tennant, like everyone at The Aegis, hates demons. But she loves her job as Deputy Spokesperson for the global demon-slaying organization, and she’s excited to be in the running for Chief Spokesperson. All she has to do is not screw up the two-week exchange program with The Aegis’s rival agency, the Demon Activity Response Team. But things go horribly wrong when a murder turns her into a fugitive from justice and puts a demonic target on her back.

Logan, son of the Horseman of the Apocalypse known as Death, has dedicated his life to fighting demons alongside his colleagues at DART. He loves fighting, females, and his pet hellhound, Cujo. What he doesn’t love is The Aegis, whose leadership attempted to slaughter him at birth. Understandably, he balks when he’s ordered to protect an Aegis Guardian responsible for the deaths of his friends. Really, he’d rather feed her to Cujo.

But when an old enemy rises from the ashes, Eva and Logan find themselves giving into temptation even as they sacrifice the things…and people…they love the most.

Keep reading for a look inside Legacy of Temptation!

Eva wasn’t sure what she’d expected the inside of DART’s main office building to look like, but a modern, brightly lit headquarters with a jungle-themed fountain in the lobby wasn’t it. Although the demon and angel statues eyeing each other with suspicion in the center of the spray weren’t all that unexpected.
Keeley had thrown a coin into the crystal pool out of some sort of superstition as they walked toward the auditorium where they now sat, waiting impatiently for someone to show up and give them the scheduled orientation.
“Of course, they’re late,” Carlos growled. “Go figure that a bunch of Aegis traitors can’t be trusted to handle shit efficiently.”
“Idiots,” Sig said, kicking the stage in front of him, leaving a dusty boot print.
Eva wasn’t so sure they were idiots, but this was definitely not a professional start to the cooperative mission.
The door near the back of the stage whispered open, and everyone went silent as a figure emerged from the shadows.
“Holy shit.” Keeley sounded a little breathless as she jabbed Eva in the ribs. “No way that guy is a demon. Angel for sure.”
Keeley wasn’t serious…probably…but Eva understood where she’d gotten the angel thing. The man who’d just entered the chamber was stunning. Really stunning. His wavy blond hair gleamed like a halo under the harsh stage lights, and ropy, thick muscles in his forearms flexed under tan skin as he strode across the stage. The strike of his combat boots echoed through the chamber, making her heart pound with every step. His black DART T-shirt was tucked into midnight tactical pants that cut a shadowy figure against the dark curtain behind him.
He gave them all a bored glance as he walked toward the mic. Seriously, he was going to use the mic to talk to a whopping six people?
She felt a little foolish when he strolled past the mic and plopped down on the edge of the stage, his long legs dangling over the side.
“My name is Logan,” he said in a deep, rumbling voice that made heat curl in her belly. “Apparently, I drew the short stick, and now I have to give you the DART 101 lecture. You probably don’t want to be here any more than I do, so here are the basics. DART stands for Demonic Activity Response Team. We formed thirty-five years ago when we broke off from The Aegis because, I dunno, let’s go with philosophical differences. Now, we’re doing this prisoner exchange thing, where people from DART hang out at Aegis headquarters, and you guys hang out here—”

Release Day Blitz & Review…Lonely For You Only by Monica Murphy

by Courtney

From New York Times bestselling author and BookTok sensation Monica Murphy comes a swoon-worthy new adult romance full of love songs.

Young heiress Scarlett Lancaster is delighted when her father tells her he hired a famous pop star and former boy band member to play at her eighteenth birthday. But delight becomes utter disappointment when it turns out he wasn’t talking about Harry Styles. No, Scarlett’s dad hired Tate Ramsey, former lead singer of the band Five Car Pileup, who hasn’t been popular for years.

Tate, after years of alcohol- and drug-fueled partying, is sober and ready for a comeback. He is in top form at Scarlett’s party and blows the audience away with his performance–though Scarlett herself still isn’t impressed. But when they talk after he leaves the stage, their encounter ends in a kiss that surprises them both–and immediately goes viral.

The viral kiss and the video of Tate singing at the party do wonders for both of their burgeoning careers. So after some careful negotiation, the two of them agree to start a fake relationship. But before long they discover their feelings might not be fake after all …

This is a sweet, coming of age, with a bit of rockstar, romance read!!!

Read the blurb if you want to know what the book is about. I do my best to NOT summarize the book in my reviews or give details away that may spoil any parts of a book.

Scarlett is not your typical heiress. Yes, she realizes how fortunate she is, however, she doesn’t want to be known for that. She wants to be relatable to the every day individual. And when she is provided an opportunity to live outside the life of her Lancaster, she takes that opportunity, with a bit of hesitancy though.

Monica does a wonderful job of letting this story play out naturally. But with saying that, certain revelations seem quite fast and the characters address this very well. I found this story to be authentic in so many ways yet very entertaining for readers. There is very light drama and is all handled well.

Overall, another great read from Monica Murphy!!

Release Day Blitz…Through The Glen by Samantha Young

by Courtney

Through the Glen by Samantha Young is now live!

He’s a cynical, world-weary Londoner. She’s a shy Scot. They might seem like opposites, but a few weeks in the Highlands will bring them together in ways they can’t imagine…

Theo Cavendish is the second son of a British viscount, and he’s spent years running from the aristocratic world he grew up in. Betrayal and loss taught him lessons he’s not quick to forget. As an award-winning screenwriter and creator, Theo prefers to throw himself into the world of film and television. He moves from one project to another, never really letting anyone truly know him.

As a housekeeper at the exclusive Ardnoch Estate, shy Sarah McCulloch feels invisible most days. No one really knows her, and they definitely don’t know she’s a bestselling crime writer. She dreams of seeing her series on screen and believes only one person can develop it for television. On the day she quits the estate for good, she shares her secret with club member, Theo, and asks him to consider her books.

Sarah never expected him to say yes or to show up on her doorstep ready to write with her. Or that weeks spent locked up in her cottage would lead them to form an intense but undeniable connection. A bond that Theo is not sure he’s ready to accept, even though he can’t bear to be without her.

However, when they finally venture out of their bubble, Theo finds he’ll have to battle more than his own demons to protect Sarah from hurt. For he has another fan, one intent on bringing the darkest elements of his most famous script to life. And unless he can figure out this real-life antagonist’s next move, Theo could be in danger of losing Sarah forever.

He settled his free hand on her other shoulder and she leaned into his protective grasp. “You deserve better,” he said in a husky voice. “You should have people in your life you can trust.”
She swallowed hard at the sincerity in his voice, pushing back the lump in her throat. It wasn’t often she let herself think about what she was missing in her life. It wouldn’t do her any good. Her focus had always been on looking ahead and making sure she held tight to whatever convictions she could. Like standing firm against her parents’ desire for her to date and marry Preston.
“I have my grandmother. She knows where I am and she’d never say a word,” she murmured. “I have my sister. And now I have you.”
His eyes opened wide, his surprise evident. She understood. She wasn’t sure what had possessed her to include him in her tiny circle, but her gut told her it was true. He’d given her a place to stay, allowed her to help at the bar he managed, let her paint in his house, and most importantly, he’d kept Preston away. Not to mention, he’d threatened him on her behalf.
Yes, she could trust Maddox James.
She also wanted him. Wanted him to kiss her without reservation this time. Wanted to see his muscled, sexy body naked and aroused for her, and to feel his warmth on her skin.
She wanted him to take her virginity.
There was so much he could show her, teach her, and make her feel. Though she knew, even if she convinced Maddox to let himself go, this thing between them could only be temporary. He’d already listed his reasons he wasn’t right for her.
Even if she knew he was wrong.
Despite the obstacles, Gabby wouldn’t be deterred. She met his hooded gaze and saw the desire in his eyes. He was feeling the same need.
“Maddox? Are you going to push me away again?” she asked in a whisper.
A long moment passed, and she waited, anxious and nervous. She couldn’t handle another rejection, but she’d never regret putting herself out there. She sensed he’d be worth it.
A low growl sounded from inside him and he finally caved, lowering his head, his mouth inches from hers. “I want you, Gabby.”

Release Day Blitz…Wild For You by Kristen Proby

by Courtney

Wild for You by Kristen Proby is now live!

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes an all-new small-town series set in Montana, starting with WILD FOR YOU, an Age-Gap, Single Dad, Nanny, Grumpy/Sunshine romance!

Remington Wild is a single dad of two adorable kids, and as the oldest son of the Wild family, has recently taken over the Wild River Ranch from his father. Life is crazy, and he’s finally willing to admit that he needs help, and the sooner the better. He has no idea that the beautiful woman he sees every day at Bitterroot Valley Coffee Co. is the woman who would show up for the job.

Erin Montgomery couldn’t get out of Seattle fast enough. It’s not that she doesn’t love her big, loud family, but living in the big city just wasn’t for her. The minute she stepped foot in Bitterroot Valley, she knew she was home. She loves the slower pace, the friendly people, and her job at the coffee shop. Even the smoking hot grumpy guy who stops in every afternoon can’t put a damper on how much she loves small town life!

Thanks to car trouble, and her stubbornness when it comes to using her trust fund, Erin needs a second job and applies for the position of a part-time nanny. She’s surprised to find that it’s Grumpy himself who answers the door at the ranch, but Erin quickly learns that she loves his kids and the ranch, and it’s a no-brainer to take the job. She just has to remind herself to resist the sexy rancher and keep it strictly professional.

Remington is attracted to his younger nanny, and finds himself falling headfirst in love with her. He and his kids have never been happier, and he knows she is the perfect addition to their family for as long as she’s willing to stay. Hopefully forever.

But when secrets are exposed, one of which endangers his children, will their love survive? Or will it tear them apart?

Release Day Blitz & Review…Sizzle by Carrie Aarons

by Courtney

Sizzle by Carrie Aarons is now live!

Everyone knows that if there was an award for biggest small town grump, Liam Ashton would win for Hope Crest, Pennsylvania no questions asked.

The reclusive, brooding farmer might be part of the family business and do anything for those closest to him, but his bark keeps almost everyone else away. Perhaps that’s what happens when you fall in love at first sight but aren’t allowed to be with the soulmate you didn’t realize you were looking for.

When the forbidden woman of his dreams blows back into town, he might finally get a shot to convince her they’re destined to be together. Only, her denials and refusals won’t let him get anywhere near her.

Gabrielle Murphy swore she’d never return to the town where she took her first teaching job. She’d done the right thing, once upon a time, and there is no room to question what if.

But when the only woman who ever understood her passes and leaves her to clean up the pieces, she can’t exactly say no. Get in, fulfill her grandmother’s wishes, and get out. That’s the plan. Until Liam confronts her and they give in to the unmatched inferno that’s been blazing between them forever.

Even though there is nothing standing in the way of a happily ever after this time, Gabrielle still can’t let this surly version of the Liam she once knew love her completely.

Until a surprise binds them to each other for the foreseeable future, and they have to forgive enough to move forward. But just as the ice around their hearts starts to thaw, darker outside forces threaten to ruin their chance before it’s even taken.

Carrie has definitely found her niche with small-town romances.

Sizzle is the third book in the Ashton Family series and I absolutely loved Liam and Gabrielle’s story.

Carrie does a great job of writing a forbidden romance that really resonated with readers. The growth we see in Liam and Gabrielle makes this story all the more authentic.

I am not going to tell you what happens – read the blurb and you’ll get all the information you need. Or don’t and just know that you are going to get a woman who keeps her guard up and a man who’s determined to win her over.

Sizzle is perfectly paced and will have you swooning in no time. Readers will love Liam and Gabrielle’s story and will be rooting for them from the get-go.

Meet Carrie Aarons

Marek by Bella Jewel is now live!

My name is Ellie.
Ellie Mae, if you will.
Before you ask, no, it’s not a cruel joke.
My parents thought the name suited me, and well, here we are.
That’s the mildest part of my story, though.
Oh, hell, it doesn’t even scratch the surface.
I’m a dancer, and a good one at that.
I have a fiancé, one my parents picked out just for me, and a blossoming career.
Everything was going well, until I caught the eye of the wrong man.
He saw something in me, something the rest of the world was overlooking.
A talent that runs deeper than the surface.
He wants to make me a star, only his show isn’t the kind you dream of.
It’s dark, twisted and dangerous.
A world you could never begin to imagine.
Like a thief in the night, he takes me from everything I love.
He won’t let me go, not until I do the very thing he captured me for…
Dance.
Dance for a monster, live in a cage, be the perfect little puppet.
There is just one problem with that plan…
He has no idea who he is messing with.
But I can assure you, he’s about to find out.
