9_1001_2020_Darynda Jones_300dpi_new (1)

Guarding a precocious five-year-old who is half-human, half-god, and 100% destined to save the world is no easy feat.

Garrett Swopes was the ultimate skeptic until he met a certain hellion and her husband. They vanished after stopping a catastrophic event and left him, a mere mortal, in charge of protecting their gift to mankind. But when she disappears as well, he needs the help of another breed of hellion. One who can see past the veil of space and time. One who betrayed him.

She will get a truce in the deal, but she will never earn his forgiveness.

Marika Dubois’s son—a warrior in the coming war between heaven and hell—was foreseen long before his birth. But to create a child strong enough to endure the trials that lay ahead, she needed a descendant of powerful magics. She found that in Garrett Swopes and tricked him into fathering her son. A ploy he has never forgiven her for. But when he knocks on her door asking for her help, she sees the fierce attraction he tries to deny rise within him.

And Marika has to decide if she dares risk her heart a second time to help the only man she’s ever loved.

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Girl In The Love Song by Emma Scott

At Santa Cruz Central High School, they called them the misfits, the outcasts, the weirdos. But most of us knew them as the Lost Boys…

The Girl in the Love Song, book one in the Lost Boys, an interconnected coming-of-age series of standalones, from USA Today bestselling author Emma Scott, is live!

Miller Stratton is a survivor. After a harrowing childhood of poverty, he will do anything it takes to find security for himself and his mom. He’s putting all his hopes and dreams in the fragile frame of his guitar and the beauty he creates with its strings and his soulful voice. 

Until Violet. 

No one expects to meet the love of their life at age thirteen. But the spunky rich girl steals Miller’s heart and refuses to give it back. 

Violet McNamara’s life hasn’t been as simple as it looks. Her picture-perfect family is not so perfect after all. Her best friend Miller is her one constant and she is determined not to ruin their friendship with romantic complications. 

But the heart wants what it wants. As Miller’s star begins to rise to stratospheric heights, what will it take for Violet to realize that she’s the girl in all of his love songs?

The Girl in the Love Song features two original songs written by Emma herself.

The Girl in the Love Song is exactly why I love contemporary romance books.  This is definitely a YA/NA book but it is one that I think anyone who reads contemporary romance will enjoy.

This was my first book my Emma Scott (I know, I know – scold me later).  And after reading this, I am really not sure why I have not before but this will definitely not be my last.

The blurb of this book gives you a small glimpse of what this book is about but this book is so much more.  This story covers from when Violet and Miller first meet and continues on through becoming adults.  Emma does a phenomenal job of setting the perfect pace with these two from start to finish.

Emma wrote this story beautifully with amazing characters.  She introduces them all in a way that you won’t ever forget any of them but none of the secondary characters overpower the main characters.  The mannerisms and characteristics fit the characters and their age very well, which makes this book so much relatable on different levels.

What I love so much about this story though was feelings expressed and life lessons taught throughout this story.  I am not sure if Emma attempted to do this but they there.  They feelings of empathy, compassion, love, hurt and anger.  The life lessons of seeing beyond what people present themselves as, staying true to who you are, taking risks and never giving up.  This book is so much more than story of love and for that, I love this book that much more.

Emma – thank you for writing a story that touched me in ways I had not expected.  This book was so much more than the surface read that I had anticipated it to be.  I am looking forward to what you bring us next with these Lost Boys.

Release Day Blitz & Review….Catch Me When I Fall by A.L. Jackson

A Falling Stars stand-alone romance from A.L. Jackson

“ “AL Jackson at her best. She’s a wordsmith. A magnificent storyteller. A poet and a romantic. Mix all of this with some page-turning suspense, and a climactic ending, in more ways than one, and you’ve got yet another must-read.””

-USA Today bestelling author Lauren Rowe

“All you need to know is this is a must read. I loved it 1,000 times.”

-Books and Prime


DETAILS:

TITLE: CATCH ME WHEN I FALL

RELEASE DATE: MAY 29TH, 2020

Synopsis

A Falling Stars STAND-ALONE NOVEL from NYT & USA Today Bestselling Author, A.L. Jackson . . .

Sometimes trying to catch a star will light your whole world on fire…

Emily’s entire existence was wrapped up in touring with her country-rock band Carolina George.

What she never expected was to spend a passionate night with a gorgeous, tattooed stranger.

Their chemistry was combustible.

Their attraction irresistible.

It was never supposed to follow her into the light of day.

Royce’s night with the lead singer of Carolina George was the worst mistake of his life. He needs the band to sign on to his record label or his family will pay the price.

He knows falling for her will threaten his carefully laid plans.

Royce’s past is littered with mistakes and heartache—will he overcome or will his love for Emily just be one more tragedy…

Catch Me When I Fall is the second standalone book in Jackson’s Falling Stars series. It’s another angst-filled, insta-love story that many readers will enjoy.

One thing I have to point out is that Jackson’s writing is one that takes some getting used to. She definitely writes more poetically than most authors that I read. But it works for her as most of her stories are about musicians and/or artists so it fits the characters styles well. Ok onto the story….

I am not a fan of insta-love because they are so difficult to write and make believable between the characters. Emily and Royce’s story I am still 50/50 on. There is an insta-attraction between these two and when things move in a direction that throws Emily off her rocker, it definitely makes things more entertaining. However, these two never get to know one another than more than surface-level. And while that issue is mentioned in the book, nothing is ever done about it.

Emily and Royce are both keeping secrets not just from each other, but from other members of the band. While I understand the need for some suspense to keep things intense, it felt as though these secrets were the only thing that was mentioned (yet never revealed til later) to keep readers interested in the story.

Overall, I felt this played out a little too long for me and I was beginning to skim pages just to see if anything new developed or happened. I am a huge fan of Amy’s so it hurts that this one was not a better read for me. I am definitely in the minority on this one. But it won’t stop me from reading her future books.

I was raised to be Jadon Safrin’s enemy.

My father was the king of Alidonia and wanted to rule all of the kingdoms, which meant trouble for Jadon when he became king of Farrow.

When war threatened to break out between our countries and I met Jadon face-to-face, I realized I could become his greatest weakness.

I could either do the right thing, or I could let him crash and burn, paving the way for my family to get their greatest wish.

But I’d never met a man like Jadon, pure of heart and unparalleled bravery, and when all was said and done, maybe in truth, I was nothing but a pawn.

He would be my demise.

Jackson_ecover2 Book 5

The devil came to me in disguise. Too bad I didn’t notice until it was far too late.

Vanessa:

The devil doesn’t always wear an evil mask.

Sometimes, he appears in the most beautiful form.

Like the super-hot bad boy with the dirty-blond hair and a wicked glint in his blue eyes who swept in out of nowhere, stealing all the air from my lungs.

I thought he was my savior. 

But he’s my ruination.

And he’s just taken a machete to my heart.

 

Jackson:

For years, my rage seethed under the surface. Hidden behind a cloudy haze of my poison of choice.

But now, the fog has cleared.

And I’m out for blood.

I will annihilate those responsible for taking my sister from me.

Except he’s not here, so I go for the next best target.

The woman he abandoned.

Until it suited him to drag her into this messed-up elite world.

Sucks to be her.

Because when I’m done with Vanessa, she’ll wish she was dead.

Release Day Blitz….That’s The Way I Loved You by Carrie Aarons

  • Cover Designed by Sarah Hansen at Okay Creations

Savannah

This town ain’t big enough for the two of us.
Which is why I left.

I was determined never to return to Hale, Texas. But when my new life in the Big Apple throws me a curve ball, I have to go back to tie up loose ends. One of those being him.

Jason Whitney was my first everything. Kiss, love, epic heartbreak. He shattered my world once upon a time, and apparently, he’s not done yet.

With old demons lurking around every corner, hightailing it out of my hometown is at the top of my list. Complete my unfinished business, and I get to leave any memory of my country existence behind.

Only, with each day I spend in it, with each moment I spend with him, I’m turning back into the girl who laid in the tall grass and swam in the creek all those years ago.

And I’m not sure that who I was is ready to let me go again.

Jason

We drew a line down the middle, and neither of us has crossed it.
That is, until Savannah Reese blew back into our hometown.

The day my high school sweetheart left, she took my whole heart with her. We promised each other forever, made plans that only teenagers could believe in, and crashed and burned on the grandest of scales.

When Savannah last saw me, I was a disgraced high school athlete. All washed up, I took it out on the only person who loved me. Then her world really fell apart, and I was too selfish to care.

Now she’s back, ready to sell the only remaining thing tying us to each other. I’ve been breaking my back for the last ten years not to think about her, not to be reminded of the love we shared.

But now that she’s right here, it’s impossible to forget how we used to be. Or let go of what we still are.

One-click That’s the Way I Loved You now! mybook.to/ThatstheWayILovedYou

Author of romance novels such as The Tenth Girl and Privileged, 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’s a Jersey girl living in Texas with her husband, daughter and furry son.

Blurb: 

Have you ever hit rock bottom?

I embarrassingly have.

It’s why I’m wearing my girl’s decorative scarf over my head, clutching her lady drink to my chest, and singing ever so softly to Joni Mitchell while swaying back and forth.

This is what therapists refer to as LOSING IT.

Oldest story in the book: boy meets girl, boy falls for girl, boy screws up MASSIVELY, girl tells boy to suffocate in the fruits of his very own unborn children.

Heard it before? I’m sure you have.

So what’s so different about this story? Well, it’s about me, The Modern Gentleman, New York City’s top advice columnist, and my rather ungraceful downfall from my pristinely polished pedestal.

It’s about a girl I met who threw all my proven theories to the wind and left me awkward, needy, and absolutely head-over-wingtipped shoes in love.

This is a story about June Lacy and how she single-handedly dismantled The Modern Gentleman.

TMG_teaser-9

PROLOGUE

Dear Gents, 

See that remote in your hand? Yeah, the one that’s covered in pizza sauce and last night’s Buffalo wings? I want you to take a good look at it. Do you have it memorized? Good, now bend at the waist, set it on the coffee table, and stand up. Don’t you dare look at that remote again, don’t even glance at it. And the Xbox that’s calling your name, go ahead and forget about that as well, because guess what? You’re starting a new journey and it doesn’t include television, video games, or high-fiving over a bubbly belch from the bowels of your intestinal tract. Forget everything you’ve ever known about being a man, forget the hall passes you have for being a man, and forget every natural instinct you carry inside your bones. Because I’m here to refine you, replenish your knowledge on the male species, and turn you into a modern gentleman: a well-respected, polished, and confident individual with an epic sex appeal and killer style that will woo any female with a simple flash of your honest charm. 

Stick with me, gents. I’m starting a revolution and it begins with you. 

Sincerely, 

The Modern Gentleman

The Hunter, an all-new scorching hot contemporary romance from USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen is available now! 

HUNTER_FINAL 4.35.30 PM

Boston’s debauched elite is going up in flames, and it’s the Fitzpatrick family that set it on fire. 

Hunter

I didn’t mean to star in a sex tape, okay?

It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds.

It just happened.

Now my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston’s nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan.

The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family’s oil company.

Little does she know, that’s not the only pipe I’ll be laying…

 

Sailor 

I didn’t want this gig, okay?

But the deal was too sweet to walk away from.

I needed the public endorsement; Hunter needed a nanny.

Besides, what’s six months in the grand scheme of things?

It’s not like I’m in danger of falling in love with the appallingly gorgeous, charismatic gazillionaire who happens to be one of Boston’s most eligible bachelors.

No. I will remain immune to Hunter Fitzpatrick’s charm.

Even at the cost of losing everything I have.

Even at the cost of burning down his kingdom.

Release Day Blitz & Review….Through The Lens by K.K. Allen

Title: Through the Lens
Series: Bellecurve #3
Author: K.K. Allen
Genre: Standalone New Adult/Contemporary Romance
Release Date: May 1, 2020
Blurb
“He thought I was his muse. Turned out, he was mine too.”

Maggie Stevens is done feeling objectified.

After spending her entire life in the spotlight and climbing the high fashion ranks as a model in LA, she’s willing to leave it all behind for a fresh start.

Moving to Seattle seems like the perfect solution.

A clean slate.

New adventures.

Endless opportunities.

All is going according to plan. Until she meets the drop-dead gorgeous cooking instructor who delights in adding to her misery.

Desmond Blake is determined to make a name for his culinary school—one that speaks to his hard work and undeniable passion.
When his food photography hobby garners attention from an unexpected source, his dreams are finally within reach. The obstacle he never sees coming is the sharp-tongued bombshell with a distaste for all he stands for.
When Desmond accidentally captures a photo of Maggie during a moment of weakness, he starts to see there’s more to the fashionista than meets the eye…
Sometimes what can be seen through the lens is a skewed version of reality. A bent perspective. Manufactured, therefore losing all sense of authenticity. And sometimes all it takes is a different angle to see what’s right in front of you.

Through the Lens is an amazing contemporary romance read that everyone will enjoy! The story also encompassed more than I had anticipated and it made the story that much more relatable and enjoyable.

Maggie has been pondering changing careers when she realized modeling was not where heart truly was. After a very unexpected leave from modeling, she moves to live with her sister to try and figure out what she wants to do next.

Desmond has always known his passion in life is cooking and photography. He runs a very profitable and productive culinary school but wants to take it one step further. But when his photography catches the eye of a prominent producer, his dreams are closer to coming true.

I enjoyed this story from start to finish. Desmond and Maggie’s story is such an authentic one, it is impossible not to fall in love with their story. They go from being fre-enemies to coworkers to more. I love how things progressed naturally and organically between them. I enjoyed all the banter and interactions between them as is just added to the chemistry bubbling underneath the surface.

Through the Lens was exactly what I needed right now. Everything flowed perfectly with the right amount of angst, humour and steam. Ms. Allen truly knows how to make her characters and stories so relatable and real. You can never go wrong when reading a K.K. Allen book.

It is a complete standalone, however, I would highly recommend reading these books in order to get the best and all-around full story. The Hating Season is part of a series, The Seasons, but it is a spin-off of Linde’s Cruel Trilogy.

Court Kensington needs to have his image cleaned up after he had a rather unfortunate and complicated breakup. It’s not only for his own self-image but also because his mother is running for re-election and doesn’t need to be adding additional stress.

Anna English is one of the best publicist’s for Hollywood’s elite in LA. However, being a publicist for a social elite in New York is a whole other area. There is a reason that Anna excels at what she does – she doesn’t let any client get under her skin or under her in bed.

But now Anna finds herself being thrust into the spotlight with her movie star husband cheating on her and the paparazzi popping up and printing pictures and stories that fit their agenda. And Court has found himself in more deep water just weeks before the election.

However, Anna and Court find themselves needing one another for far more reasons than business. As much as Anna thinks she can resist the Kensington charm, she finds herself seeing another side of Court that makes it much harder than she thought.

I really, really enjoyed this story. It has all the angst, drama and sexy times that I love from Linde. We get to see the rest of the crew too in here and see where things are with all of them, but it never detracts from the story. Linde does a great job of keeping things entertaining, steam and moving at the right pace. I also love that she keeps readers on their toes about two more members of the crew that are coming up in the next book.

Another great book from the Upper East Side Crew and I am looking forward to Camden and Katherine’s story.
