Beneath the Stars Excerpt Blitz

A Friends-to-Lovers Rockstar Romance from A.L. Jackson

Coming February 22nd

Beneath the Stars is coming 02/22, and I’m thrilled to be a part of the except blitz. Check out the fire that is coming to you in this friends-to-lovers romance!

 

“Just how strong are ya, Mag Pie? Think you can sling me on that back and carry me inside?” He managed to only half slur the words.

Droplets of giddiness dripped into my chest. A well gathering fast. “You’re asking me if I can lift a Mack truck?” 

“Hell, no. Just if you can tackle a stallion.”

He waggled his brows, though it was sloppy and goofy and kind of adorable, and god, how easily I could fall for this man.

Like slipping into quicksand. 

“What would you say if I wanted to try?” I whispered, throat so tight it was difficult to speak. 

He grunted. “I’d say that sounds like a mistake.” 

“I thought you said I needed to make a few mistakes along the way?” I lifted my chin, my eyes searching his face in the darkness.

He forced a grin that felt wholly faked. “Ahhh…a few mistakes are called for. But believe me, baby, you don’t want this kind of tragedy.” 

“Rhys—” 

He shook his head to cut me off. “Don’t.” 

I glanced back at the house. “I really should get Royce. He can help me get you inside.” 

Rhys huffed out a laugh, shoving off the darkness that had gathered around him like a violent storm. He cocked a playful grin. “Think I’ve received my full allotment of death threats from your brother today, thank you very much. I can make it just fine.” 

“Death threats?” 

“Let’s just say he made our boundaries very clear.” He gestured at the bare space between us. “Just so you know, we’re already crossin’ them.” 

I scowled. “When?” 

“Doesn’t matter.” 

I huffed a sigh. 

Freaking Royce. 

“Richard?” I offered instead. 

“Nope. Good as new. Can’t keep a good man down.” His words were all slurry and mushed together.

He hopped up like he was going to prove the point. 

Only he stumbled three feet to the side. 

A goliath who swayed. 

I jumped up and rushed to his side. “Whoa there, cowboy. You keep it up, and you’re definitely going down.”

He leaned against me, slinging his arm over my shoulders. 

The man heavy and hard and pure masculinity. 

He staggered a bit, and I struggled to keep him upright, because holy crap, he was made of brick. 

Suddenly, his nose was in my hair. “Why you gotta smell so good, Mags? And this dress.” 

My brain was short-circuiting with him this close. 

With the words that slipped from his mouth so errantly. 

With the way his fingertips grazed over the silky fabric in the barest brush.

Wildfire. 

It consumed my flesh.

But it was my heart that was at risk.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Fighting For You by Monica Murphy

Fighting For You by Monica Murphy is now live!

Diego Garcia.
Class bully.
Football star.
My boyfriend.
I fell hard and fast for the resident bad boy and he fell just as hard for me too. We were the perfect couple, until things turned sour.
Senior year and we’re both super busy. He has football. I have volleyball. Soon enough, I hear the rumors – Diego’s cheating on me. After everything we’ve been through, I’m devastated. Breaking up with him was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. He doesn’t love me. Besides, only a few more months of school, and then I’m going away to college. And Diego will be permanently out of my life.
Until I find out I’m pregnant. And now we’re forever tied together…

So I am one of the few who have not read any of the previous books in this series (don’t ask cause my only reason is I am a dumbass). Anyway – you can read this book as a standalone, BUT (and it’s a BIG BUT) I would highly, highly recommend reading them in order. These characters were introduced earlier in the series and there was definitely a backstory that I missed but it did not hurt the overall plot of this book. You just knew you missed some juicy tidbits. LOL

Fighting For You is a YA romance and Monica does well staying true to these characters and their ages. Diego and Joselyn are high school senior who find themselves becoming parents and they are no longer together.

I enjoyed watching Diego and Joselyn grow – both as individuals but as upcoming parents. They learn a lot, way earlier than either expected, but it forced them to grow up and face their own faults.

Fighting For You is written from both Diego and Joselyn’s POVs and I think that really helps readers gain a better understanding of each character and where they are coming from. There is a lot of ups and downs and it’s nice getting the viewpoint from each of them.

I enjoyed this story and these characters. Now I need to go back and read the previous 4 books to see what all the hype is about. 😊

The Devil comes with baggage, and not the kind you can lose. I was two years old when he saved me. I didn’t understand much at that age, but I remember the pale boy with hair as dark as ink, saving me from two evils. He said he would protect me; I just didn’t know he meant from himself.

Release Day Blitz & Review…The Bluff by Willa Nash

The Bluff by Willa Nash is now live!

As Calamity’s newest resident, Everly Christian thought life in small-town Montana would be dull and tame–and she needs a little mundane after the last few chaotic years. But one night, boredom drives her to the local bar, where she finds herself sitting beside a handsome and mysterious artist.
The man is anything but dull and tame, especially in the bedroom, and when she steps out of his shower and overhears his conversation, life gets interesting again.
Reese Huxley needs a wife.
And why shouldn’t Everly be the bride?
She’s got her reasons for agreeing to the hasty nuptials–reasons she’s keeping to herself. As long as she can stop herself from falling in love with her husband, she’ll make it out of this sham marriage in one piece. But Everly has a weakness for wayward men, and the more Hux pushes her away, the more she realizes this bluff is anything but a lie.

The Bluff is the second book in the Calamity Montana series and can be easily read as a standalone. This story is about a marriage of convenience.

Everly Christian came to Calamity to escape her current situation and has now found herself staying in Calamity for the unforeseeable future.

Hux has lived in Calamity all his life and is a single dad. However, life hasn’t exactly been kind to him, nor has his ex-wife. All he wants to do in life is create his art and be able to have his daughter live with him.

Devney’s writing pulls you in from the very start. The way things play out and the chemistry between Hux and Everly keep readers glued to the pages. Every new instance has the reader digging deeper into the story and never wanting it to end.

Devney really knows how to write characters that seep deep into your bones and burrow themselves there. I loved every bit of this story and know that many other readers will too.

Release Day Blitz & Review…Octane (A Driven World Novel) by Murphy Wallace

Murphy Wallace’s Octane is an edge-of-your-seat, 
suspense-filled romance in K. Bromberg’s Driven World!

Everyone has a breaking point

The racetrack has been my home since I was fifteen. When I’m behind the wheel, it’s just me and the asphalt.⁣

No stress.⁣ No worry.⁣

No one trying to convince me I’m not worthy of my dream.⁣

I laugh when people tell me how dangerous racing is. If they only knew my relationship was the bigger threat. The longer I stay with Daniel, the more unstable my life becomes. I’m caught between happy memories of the sweet boy I fell in love with a lifetime ago and the harsh realization that he may be gone forever.⁣

He’s taken a lot from me over the years, and I’m not sure how much I have left to give. I can only pretend to be in a loving relationship for so long. Racing is the one thing that keeps me going.⁣

Jackson Powell turned my dream into a reality when he signed me as a driver for Powell Racing. He understands me, he encourages me, and he helps me stand on my own. Now, Daniel is trying to take that from me too. The more he pushes me, the closer I get to my breaking point. If he succeeds, I’m uncertain I’ll be strong enough to put myself back together again.⁣

~

When I signed Sawyer Stone to my racing team, I didn’t realize what I was getting myself into. She’s extremely talented, but she holds a secret that could ruin her career before it has a chance to start.⁣

She affects me in a way I haven’t experienced in years. I need to know why she’s so guarded. What is she hiding that keeps her from letting anyone in? If I were a betting man, I would put money on her boyfriend being at the root of it all.⁣

I didn’t like him the moment I met him. How can I make her see he’s no good for her or her career? Why is she with him? What hold does he have over her?⁣

I’ll do anything in my power to keep her safe from him.

His money and influence will make it tough, but I have those things too. I don’t care what it takes, I’ll do it and prove to her that she’s worth the fight.

https://geni.us/Octane

Goodreads: http://bit.ly/OctaneGR

Octane is one of the many books in The Driven World and each book is a complete standalone written by different authors.

Octane is story of a woman stuck in relationship where she’s lost herself completely. Sawyer’s trying to hold on to the one thing that still gives her life while the rest of her slowly dissolves to nothing.

Jackson doesn’t care who sits behind the wheel of the racecar that he knows will be the perfect addition to this team. But he wasn’t anticipating wanting Sawyer both on and off the racetrack.

This story has a lot of moving parts to it. I won’t go into details, but just know there is some cheating and slight abuse (but nothing too graphic). Murphy is known for her grittier writing but definitely keeps it PG for this book and that will appeal to this audience. Readers will enjoy the chemistry that builds between Jackson and Sawyer and the buildup is well worth the wait.

Octane is a good read. It fits right into The Driven World and readers will really enjoy Sawyer and Jackson’s story.

Octane is written in New York Times Bestselling author K. Bromberg’s Driven World, which is one of two KB Worlds projects. With over 100 authors, who were selected by and are working with K. Bromberg, these stories will be fan fiction at its finest—and sexiest. Devoted fans of the Driven and Everyday Heroes series will have the opportunity to revisit their favorite characters and settings. Murphy Wallace is returning to the Driven racetrack and putting her spin on this smoking hot, fast-paced and addictive world. You can find out more about K. Bromberg and the KB Worlds at kbworlds.com.

Review…Condemned To Love by Siobhan Davis

“Condemned to Love will hook you from page one and make you fall in love.”– Alley Ciz, bestselling author

Condemned to Love, an all-new stand-alone dark mafia romance from USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis, is available now!

Her teen crush is now a ruthless killer and powerful mafia heir.
Will one life-altering night unite or destroy them?

Bennett Mazzone grew up ignorant of the truth: he is the illegitimate son of the most powerful mafia boss in New York. Until it suited his father to drag him into a world where power, wealth, violence, and cruelty are the only currency.
Celebrating her twenty-first birthday in Sin City should be fun for Sierra Lawson, but events take a deadly turn when she ends up in a private club, surrounded by dangerous men who always get what they want.
And they want her.
Ben can’t believe his ex’s little sister is all grown up, stunningly beautiful, and close to being devoured by some of the most ruthless men he has ever known. The Vegas trip is about strengthening ties, but he won’t allow his associates to ruin her perfection. Although it comes at a high price, saving Sierra is his only choice.
The memory of Ben’s hands on her body is seared into Sierra’s flesh for eternity. She doesn’t regret that night. Not even when she discovers the guy she was crushing on as a teenager is a cold, calculating killer with dark impulses and lethal enemies who want him dead.
Understanding the risks, she walks away from the only man she will ever love, stowing her secrets securely in her heart. Until the truth becomes leverage and Sierra is drawn into a bloody war—a pawn in a vicious game she doesn’t want to play.
As the web of deceit is finally revealed, Ben will stop at nothing to protect Sierra. Even if loving her makes him weak. In a world where women serve a sole purpose, and alliances mean the difference between life and death, can he fight for love and win?

Many of Siobhan’s fans know that she is very strong writer when it comes to writing powerful characters with very compelling story line. So for many of us, this was no surprise that she wanted to challenge herself and write in a new genre.

Condemned to Love (CTL) is Siobhan’s first endeavor into the mafia world. Many know that I edit and beta read for a lot of mafia books (both of the romantic and not so romantic sub-genre) so I got really excited when an author that I truly love and respect takes on this endeavor.

CTL is very lengthy but chocked full of depth and details that are absolutely necessary when starting out a new mafia world. Siobhan delivers a very in-depth look at this world, these characters and how everything came to be.

CTL focuses on mainly on Bennett and Sierra and their story, but there are a lot of secondary characters that play key roles in the underlying mafia storyline playing out throughout the book. Siobhan implements a captivating story and you can tell she did a fair amount of research about the mafia world to make this story more authentic and not to far fetched.

As I said previously, I edit and beta read for a lot of mafia books. CTL is definitely one of the least violent mafia books and focuses more on the relationships of the characters and the inner workings of the mafia world. There is a lot of action and thrilling scenes, but nothing too graphic that will turn readers off. Siobhan does a magnificent job explaining the different mafia families and their operations in the US and that adds another layer to her story.

Bennett and Sierra’s story is told in dual POVs throughout the whole book. Siobhan’s strong writing skills allows this book to flow beautifully and getting a glimpse from each character’s perspective adds to the gripping story telling.

Overall, this is a great start to Siobhan’s new series. While there are a few things that I (as an editor) would have done differently, as a reader, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the length, the depth of story and the characters she has introduced to us. I am looking forward to what Siobhan brings next in this world.

Excerpt


SIERRA

Just as I was starting to lose my anger, it returns full force, slapping me in the face. “I don’t want your dirty money!” I hiss, prodding my finger in his chest.

An amused grin spreads across his mouth, and I want to scream. “I run several successful legitimate businesses. I assure you my money is about as dirty as yours.”

He has an answer for everything. It’s infuriating. “You truly have no shame,” I seethe. How dare he invade my privacy like this. He has no right. “Next, you’ll be telling me you know my bra size.”

His eyes lower to my chest, and I scowl, wanting to wrap my arms around myself to deprive him of the view. But I won’t give him the satisfaction of letting him know how much he is getting to me either, so I don’t move a muscle.

“You were definitely a B cup in Vegas, but I’m guessing you’re a C cup now.” He steps a little closer, and though my instinct is to fall back, I stand my ground, refusing to let this asshole intimidate me again. Bending down, he presses his warm mouth to my ear. “I would need to conduct a physical exam to make an accurate assessment.”

I push him away, glaring at him. “You’re a pig.”

His lips pull up at the corners. “I don’t remember you complaining in Vegas. In fact, I distinctly remember you begging me to suck harder on your nipples as I plowed my cock into your greedy pussy.”

“Get out!” I bark, pointing at the door. “Just go.”

He winks, and I invoke every shred of willpower I possess not to lunge at him and gouge out his eyeballs.

“Until tomorrow.” He gives me a curt nod before exiting my kitchen, and I slump back in my chair, relieved he is gone but a little disappointed too.

About Siobhan

USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis writes emotionally intense young adult and new adult romantic fiction with swoon-worthy romance, complex characters, and tons of unexpected plot twists and turns that will have you flipping the pages beyond bedtime!

Amazon’s February First Reads…The Wedding Game by Meghan Quinn

TheWeddingGame_FBPage-comingsoonbanner

THE WEDDING GAME by Meghan Quinn

Genre: Romantic Comedy

AVAILABLE IN AMAZON FIRST READS!

Quinn-TheWeddingGame-COVE

USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn’s latest bauble is the charming story of a crafting queen battling a jaded divorce lawyer on a wedding reality show.

Luna Rossi is a veritable crafting genius—she can bedazzle and bead so hard her Etsy site is one of the hottest in the world. So it’s only natural that Luna would convince her brother and his husband-to-be to compete on The Wedding Game, a “do-it-yourself” TV show, for the title of Top DIY Wedding Expert.

As a jaded divorce lawyer, Alec Baxter scoffs at weddings and romance. But when his recently engaged brother begs him to participate in The Wedding Game, Alec grudgingly picks up a glue gun and prepares for some family bonding.

Both fierce competitors, Luna and Alec clash on national TV as harsh words and glitter fly with abandon. But as they bicker over color swatches and mood boards, they find themselves fighting something else: their growing mutual attraction. While Luna is torn between family loyalty and her own feelings, Alec wonders if he might have been wrong about love and marriage all along…

Release Day Blitz…Condemned To Love by Siobhan Davis

“There’s a reason Siobhan Davis is at the tippy-top of romance: she never fails to deliver. Condemned to Love is no exception! It was action-packed, full of surprises and reveals, and most importantly, sexy steamy romance.” – Sophie Lark, International bestselling author

Condemned to Love, an all-new stand-alone dark mafia romance from USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis, is available now!

Her teen crush is now a ruthless killer and powerful mafia heir.
Will one life-altering night unite or destroy them?

Bennett Mazzone grew up ignorant of the truth: he is the illegitimate son of the most powerful mafia boss in New York. Until it suited his father to drag him into a world where power, wealth, violence, and cruelty are the only currency.
Celebrating her twenty-first birthday in Sin City should be fun for Sierra Lawson, but events take a deadly turn when she ends up in a private club, surrounded by dangerous men who always get what they want.
And they want her.
Ben can’t believe his ex’s little sister is all grown up, stunningly beautiful, and close to being devoured by some of the most ruthless men he has ever known. The Vegas trip is about strengthening ties, but he won’t allow his associates to ruin her perfection. Although it comes at a high price, saving Sierra is his only choice.
The memory of Ben’s hands on her body is seared into Sierra’s flesh for eternity. She doesn’t regret that night. Not even when she discovers the guy she was crushing on as a teenager is a cold, calculating killer with dark impulses and lethal enemies who want him dead.
Understanding the risks, she walks away from the only man she will ever love, stowing her secrets securely in her heart. Until the truth becomes leverage and Sierra is drawn into a bloody war—a pawn in a vicious game she doesn’t want to play.
As the web of deceit is finally revealed, Ben will stop at nothing to protect Sierra. Even if loving her makes him weak. In a world where women serve a sole purpose, and alliances mean the difference between life and death, can he fight for love and win?

Synopsis
 
From NYT and USA Today bestselling author A.L. Jackson comes a friends-to-lovers romance about an unattainable rockstar and his best friend’s younger sister…
 
Maggie Fitzgerald is the last girl I should think about taking to my bed.
On the cusp of turning 21, she has her whole life waiting out ahead of her. Sexy AF while still radiating an innocence that I know better than to taint.
And here I am, itching to reach out and touch a girl who is so forbidden that just thinking about her feels like committing a mortal sin.
Thing is, I love playing with fire.
 
Rhys Manning is everything I shouldn’t want.
Country-rock’s newest superstar.
Fun. Wild. Ready to show the world a good time.
He’s so off-limits it isn’t even funny.
So out of reach he might as well be a poster tacked on my wall.
Too bad every time he looks at me, my heart races out of control.
 
Now, I’m stuck living with him for the entire summer…
We’re only supposed to be friends. Still, I should have known it was a terrible idea when I started sneaking into his room. Especially when it’s clear he’s keeping secrets.
Secrets that might destroy us both.
One touch, and I want more.
One kiss, and I’m spiraling out of control.
I know it’s reckless to start dancing in the flames.
But in exchange for getting to spend one night with this brooding bad boy? I might be willing to get burned…

Release Day Blitz & Review…Rebellious and Reckless by Michelle Valentine

Sky Cold knows exactly what she wants, and it’s Luke Finnegan, the college campus star quarterback. The only problem is she’s not even a blip on his radar. In order to get noticed by her crush, she’s willing to exchange the extra bedroom in her apartment to Luke’s tattooed, older brother to find a way into his social circle.
Baker Finnegan is determined to get out of his father’s shadow and do things his way. When he falls on hard times, and the sexy, slightly nerdy co-ed, Sky offers him a place to live in exchange for fake friendship, he can’t pass up the opportunity. But when Baker quickly realizes the only match he wants to make for Sky is one with himself, he has to convince her to look past his reckless ways.

She’s baaaaaaack!!! And I am so damn happy!!

Rebellious and Reckless is the start of a new series from Michelle and each book will feature a new couple but they will all be inter-connected. R&R is a great start to the series and an amazing welcome back book!!

This is the first book this year that I read in one sitting – as in I didn’t get up off my ass to do anything while I read this. I was really enthralled with the story and had to see not only how each scene played out, but the mannerisms of these characters and did they stay true to themselves.

This book definitely goes deeper than the blurb. There’s a lot of growth and maturity in this book, but also of reality blended in. Michelle does a great job of staying true to these characters, their ages and their characteristics, which keeps them believable.

Sky may come across as shy, but once readers get to really see her, she’s quite the firecracker. Luke was a surprise to me. I had expected some typical college doucheness to appear and well, Michelle definitely shocked me with this one. Baker is the one who kept me captivated the most; he’s just as surprising but in a different way.

I really enjoyed this story and how things came to fruition and played out. There’s a good bit of sexual tension that keeps readers right at the edge of their seats and has you wondering what is going to happen next between these characters. While I was not thrilled with the quick ending – I am looking forward to the next book and how things progress from there.

Great start to a new series!!
