Playboy by Katy Evans

Publication Date: July 29, 2018

Genre: Contemporary Romance

A brand new contemporary romance from New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author Katy Evans.

It started as a game.

We flirted. We played. Most importantly—we won.

Then I discovered who he was: Gambler. Famous playboy. Silver-eyed player who never plays to lose…

And my best friend’s soon-to-be brother in law, Cullen Carmichael.

He needed a good luck charm, I needed a distraction.

So we made a gamble and set off for Vegas—but pretty soon—I was in too deep.

My heart, soul, and body weren’t supposed to be part of the deal.

But somewhere between big wins and long nights, my house of cards started to tumble.

What was this devil with those piercing eyes doing to me?

I’d given up on love, but the wicked, all-in Cullen Carmichael was upping the ante and wouldn’t stop until he’d won it all.

All I am going to say is, “Hell yeah I have something to look forward to every month!”. Okay Down on Me gives you that romance fix you need but aren’t sure you have enough time to get it. By that I mean, it is short, fast paced and to the point. I feel like J. Kenner is really using this first book in the Man of the Month series to really set it up. The great thing is that you get to know the key players and how this Man of the Month comes about. What is also fantastic is that you get to have a new book monthly as well as a cookbook!! YYYEEEESSSS- book and food- you cannot go wrong, just BYOB and you are all set readers!

True to J. Kenner form, the story of Jenna and Reece is so fun and hot to read. I literally read this in two days! It has a little bit of a rushed ending but why prolong something you know is going to happen? You really need this one to start the series off so you can get a good understanding of how everything unfolds. This is really a must-read series from a great romance author. I cannot wait to tell you about the next one because the Epilogue to the next book in the series is juicy!

“Utterly unique and absolutely riveting—I couldn’t put it down! What a marvelously cool world.” —Sarah J. Maas, New York Times bestselling author, on Firstlife

 

 

 

EXCERPT:

The identity of our intruders clicks. Two Troikan Generals: Shamus Campbell and Luciana Rossi. Behind them, four La­borers I’ve never met. A total of six invaders.

6: symbolizes beauty and high ideals. The sixth sense: ESP. The sixth astrological sign in the Zodiac: Virgo.

Focus! A soft pitter-patter of footfalls echoes outside the cave. More TLs?

Killian isn’t safe.

Panic claws its way up the ridges of my spine, and my blood f lash-freezes. I strain with all my might, desperate to move, but my body refuses to cooperate. Every attempt to raise my arms threatens to pop my shoulders out of joint. I don’t care. Nothing will halt my efforts.

“Kill, kill.” Between each command—desire?—Killian snarls like a wounded animal. “Kill!”

Shamus, a big, barrel-chested redhead with pale skin and countless freckles, slams a fist against his armor-clad chest to gain my attention. His dark eyes are narrowed, a muscle jumping in his jaw. “What did you do, Miss Lockwood? And do no’ tell me nothin’.” His accent is similar to Killian’s.

Luciana, a slender brunette with lovely brown skin and startling gray irises, backs away from me, horror contorting her expression. “I’ll tell you what she did. She doomed us all.”

Doomed…

Is she right? She can’t be. She just can’t.

I look down at Killian. My new husband is pulling at hanks of his hair.

Hopes, falling from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows.

“Out,” Shamus snarls at the TLs. “Now.”

All four soldiers rush from the cave without protest.

I stiffen. The General has evened the odds. Two against two. A foolish move for a war-seasoned veteran. Unless he got rid of any witnesses…

Willing to use my body as a shield, I push through the pain—snap. My shoulder does pop out of joint. Or maybe back into joint. Air wheezes from my lungs. Worth it! Finally, I can move. I crawl toward Killian, every inch I gain only adding fuel to an already blazing fire of agony.

Can’t stop. No, won’t stop. Determination drives me. I only wish it gave me wings.

“Kill. Must kill.” Killian is lost in a world of his own.

“You won’t be killing anyone, you son of a Myriad troll.” With a hand curled around the hilt of a sword, Shamus stalks toward him.

“Stop! He doesn’t know what he’s saying right now.” My voice is barely audible, my gaze locked on my love. So close, yet so far away. Desperation slams a spike straight through my heart.

Any other day, I would have used the comm built into the forearm of spirit and Shell. With the press of a few buttons, it could transport me to Killian’s side and, as long as some part of me is touching some part of him, whisk us both somewhere else. Somewhere safe. Like a fool, I disabled the device to hide from fellow Troikans while meeting with Killian.

I should have known they’d find me one way or another.

“Stop,” I repeat, even as I gain another inch. “That’s an order.” As a Conduit, I outrank the Generals. As a newbie to the Everlife, however, my exalted rank doesn’t really mean squat.

“We can’t hurt him,” Luciana grates. She extends her arm, stopping Shamus in his tracks. “You’ve effectively tied our hands, Miss Lockwood.”

Though the shadows are no longer slithering through my mind, I’m not exactly thinking straight. I struggle to make sense of her words, finally throw in the towel. “I don’t understand.”

“You bonded to him, did you not?” She spits the words, as if they taste foul in her mouth. “That bond forces us to spare Myriad’s favorite butcher and watch as you, one of only two Conduits, slowly descends into madness.”

Gentleman Nine by Penelope Ward….Jillian’s Review Blog Tour Stop

 

 

 

Amazon | iBooks | Amazon Paperback | Nook | Kobo | AUDIO Amazon | Audible

 

 

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

 

Growing up, the three of us were friends.

He was the nerd.

I was the playboy.

She was the beauty.

 

Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits.

He lied.

 

I went off to college, and he got the girl.

Amber never knew how I felt.

They were together for years—before he broke her heart.

 

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch.

When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

 

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men.

One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings.

Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy—curiosity.

Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message.

She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend— me. But she considered me off-limits—and she thought I was a manwhore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel.

When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she got the surprise of her life to see me standing there—with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse.

 

My Review in Short:

A good friend of mine says readers like “the same thing, but different” from authors they like. I took a moment to think about it and realized he is exactly right, and authors like Penelope Ward deliver just that to her fans.  She always delivers the same, but different.  Stories that have the same amount of feeling, the same level of emotion, the same incredible characters, but different each time.

Gentleman Nine is another stellar read from Ms. Ward.  I was sucked in from the very first chapter and couldn’t put it down until I knew how Amber and Channing’s story ended.  This is a story of off-limits crushes of the past and a chance to make those feelings real in the present.  It’s a story of long buried emotions and feelings now able to be free and to be felt.  It’s a story I know you won’t soon forget!

Thank you, Ms. Ward, for another stellar read and for always delivering “the same, but different”.

Five loves

Fake Wife by Stacey Lynn..Excerpt Reveal

Synopsis

This marriage is strictly business… until the temptation gets way too real.

Corbin: I loved my grandma, but I don’t need her money. All I care about is keeping the house—the only place that’s ever felt like home. That, and screwing over my dad, who wants to turn the property into a mall. There’s only one catch: To receive my inheritance, I have to get married within six months. Me, the guy who’s never dated a girl for more than six minutes. Now I need to find a woman I can trust. So when I’m rear-ended by a Prius, I figure it’s a sign that I’m supposed to meet gorgeous, down-to-earth Teagan Monroe.

Teagan: First I lose my job. Then I come home and find out—in the most graphic way possible . . . yeah, that way—that my boyfriend is a cheating jerk. And then I speed off and nearly kill Portland’s sexiest bachelor. Corbin Lane should be pissed. Instead, he offers me more money than I’ve ever seen in my life to marry him and live together in a mansion for two years. No sex. No feelings. Just cash—enough to make all my dreams come true. Then we go and break all our rules . . . and I realize I’m falling in love with my fake fiancé.

Excerpt

“We’re going to be married, Teagan. Don’t you think it is your business to know what your future husband is doing, and where he is?”

She has a small carrot halfway to her mouth and freezes, looking up at me through her lashes at my words.

“We’re . . . we’re not . . . it’s different for us.”

“Is it?”

A blush heats her cheek, turns brighter than the peach-colored top she has on. And when she bends over, I see a hint of a matching colored bra.

Fucking hell. I want to tear her clothes off, throw her on the counter, and fuck her until she’s screaming her head off, and she’s casually chomping on fresh veggies.

Christ.

“Teagan,” I say, my voice commanding. “Are you telling me you don’t care what I do? Where I go? Who I’m with?”

I’m prodding. Bordering on turning into the asshole she’s seen too many times, something truly uncharacteristic of me, but damn if I don’t want a reaction from her. And I do. Her jaw clenches and her shoulders pull tight.

She bites a carrot, chewing it like it’s hard as nails. “What do you want me to say?”

“I want you to ask me. I want you to be curious. That yeah, you want to know where I am when I’m not with you.”

I want you to care about me.

The reality slams into me, making my chest burn. I do. I want her to give a shit about me for more than a monthly allowance and an easy couple of years to start her own business.

I want her to want me more.

“Okay. So what kind of work do you do out at Cannon Bluffs?”

“You know that bed in your room there?”

“Yeah.”

“I built it. Started a company a couple years ago, been slowly refining the craft, growing local customers. Trying to expand it regionally.”

She freezes, a soft look passes over her features, and her gaze moves to my living room before slowly coming back to me.

“You make . . . furniture?”

God. Why does her approval mean so damn much to me? And yet the fear of not getting it holds me back.

“Have to do something other than be a playboy trust fund baby.”

“Don’t do that,” she says, shaking her head. “Don’t talk about yourself like you have nothing to offer anyone. You’ve helped me, given me a place to stay when I needed it, and you have really good friends who care about you. Plus, Caitlin told me you helped her.”

“It’s easy to help people when you have money.”

“Maybe.” She steps forward, hesitant little steps, and a pink spreads from her cheeks down her neck. God she’s pretty. If my plan was to find a normal girl to marry, I failed hugely. There’s nothing normal about Teagan. Her hand presses against my chest, a barely there glimpse of a touch, and before she can pull back, I grip her hand and hold it against my chest.

“Teagan—”

“It might be easy to help people if you have more money than God, Corbin, but you also have to have a heart.”

She’s making me lose it. The feel of her hand sears my chest like a branding iron and I want that . . . to be branded by her. Perhaps if I hold her hand to me forever, I’ll become the guy she thinks she sees.

A groan builds in my throat, the tension between us crackling, spreading, swirling around us, pulling us together, and I can’t help myself.

She’s all I have thought about for a week, all I’ve craved since I moved her in here.

I don’t want to think about contracts and pretending. I want to truly see what we can have.

My Review In Short:

Ok, first I have to say: if you haven’t read this series, you really must.  I just adore this couple and their journey. So much so that I have their tattoo (yep, you read the right!) so to say I was excited to read more of this couple would be an understatement. Checking in with this novella was a dream come true and I loved every second of it!

I loved seeing where they are today.  I loved seeing how their relationship and marriage has evolved and seeing how far they’ve come.  I also loved seeing how, once again, they overcome adversity.  This is by far one of my fave book couples and I will always want to see more of them (hint, hint, Jen lol!!).  Seriously, though, if you haven’t picked up the Out Of Line series, you really must.  I know you won’t be disappointed.

Thank you, Jen, for giving us this newest peek into the lives of two of my fave book characters!

When his sister Trinity drags him to a New Year’s Eve party, he doesn’t plan to stay long. One drink, a few hellos, and he’s out. Until he meets Luci, the first person in months to draw his smile and incite his passion.
Neither Luci nor Landon planned on each other, and they definitely didn’t plan on love. But the New Year means a fresh start, and eternal possibilities neither could deny…

Every once in a blue moon I come across a book I just don’t want to end. Eternal by Cecy Robson is that blue moon book for me this year. The story of Luci and Landon could truly go on and on for me. I adore them both as characters and I adore them as a couple!

Luci is just stuck in a rut in her life and finding herself just going through the same motions every day. When she takes off with her friend for a weekend she just bumps into this handsome rugged man, Landon.  I know what you are thinking- “yep same old same old”. It was not the same old romance storyline-NOOO it was not! It takes time for these two to fall in love with each other. I loved reading Luci and Landon’s love story. I loved that they each were coasting in life with broken hearts. I love that they were friends.

Let me tell you that Landon is not only handsome but smart. You will fall in love within the first chapter and for many reasons. He just makes your heart flutter.

I fell asleep with this book in my hands because it was just too good to stop reading. I had to know what happened next. Eternal is a perfect example of why I started reading romance books. Cecy Robson really portrays the raw emotions a character is feeling or trying to convey right from the pages and drop them right into your lap as a reader. It is amazing to experience as a reader! This is just a must buy!

Falling Forward by Dawn Robertson…Review

Synopsis:

What do you do when you hate your life and your joy is gone?

Never the sister with the best of luck, Luna Rockwell gave up on her own happiness a long time ago. She’s lost herself in a never-ending cycle of work, in a career she’s come to loathe.

When a once in a lifetime opportunity comes along, on the second worst day of her life, it gives her a chance most women can only dream about. Searching for love in a new city, Luna finds herself in a love-triangle she never expected.

Will Luna find love once and for all, or is she destined to be the cat-lady aunt for the rest of her life?

 

My Review in Short:

Falling Forward is a wonderful story of overcoming loss, finding love, self-discovery, and beating adversity.  It is a story full of emotion and I loved reading Luna’s journey as she finds her true self.  What truly makes her happy.  She’s an amazing character I know you will love reading as much as I did!

Thank you, Dawn, for an unforgettable read!

Four Loves

About the author:

Three times best selling author Dawn Robertson was born and raised in Connecticut before relocating to Florida in 2013. The same year first novel, Hers debuted as an Amazon Best Seller. Replicating that success with two additional novels in the following years.

The Indie publishing world has grown to love her raw writing style depicting strong
women in real life situations, topping the charts in erotica, romance, and romance-suspense. Robertson has even insinuated that the female characters in her book mirror her real life. But, that I’ll leave to speculation.

When Dawn Robertson is not writing she is a full-time Real Estate professional in Florida, and mother of three amazing children.

Win the game. Lose your heart.

Everyone knows who I am and that I could have any female fan I want. That’s supposed to be the “perk” of playing left field for the Boston Renegades. But I don’t want just any woman; I want her.

She should be just another face in the crowd, but I can’t stop thinking about the one night we spent together-and her look of regret the morning after.

Because Saylor Blackwell is the kind of woman who haunts a man. Smart, sexy as hell, and one of the best managers in the business. She’s every ballplayer’s dream woman. And I’d do anything to make things right with her.

I’m done sitting on the bench when it comes to Saylor Blackwell. Time to swing for the fences.

I loved this book, I love this series and I love Heidi McLaughlin! Seriously, I could not put this book down! One of the many reasons I love Heidi McLaughlin’s writing is that I swoon over every male character she writes. Travis appeared a little here and there in the previous books and was always someone I thought would make a great story. Boy I was right!

I love the fact that Travis’s story was not the typical “can’t settle down until this one girl appears” storyline I tend to find in romance stories. Grand Slam is refreshing as a romance reader because you will find yourself routing for Travis, AKA bad boy, and you will also find yourself thinking “oh no that did not just happen!”.  I just could not believe the trouble Travis found himself in! I couldn’t believe he stop fighting for himself and his wants either!

Travis is a notorious playboy in the series but I just wanted him to fall in love. I was sure I had his storyline all figured out too but then a twist (or should I say “she-devil” pops up) and BAM- Travis cannot get the happy ending he deserves and I want!!! I just wanted to shake Travis and Saylor!

Saylor is a great character also because she is a single mom who puts her daughter before everything. I found myself shouting aloud at her “Girl come on already”! Between her and Travis my emotions were a roller coaster while reading this book.

I have two pieces of advice for any romance reader. First one is this is a fantastic series that will not bore you as a reader or repeat the same story just with different characters. Second, anything that Heidi McLaughlin writes is never a disappointment. Go out and purchase this series or even just this book and you will have a new favorite author as well as book boyfriend!

Excerpt

Whenever I wake up with a hangover, I often ask myself why I drank so much and promise that I’ll never do it again. That promise is something I’ve been breaking for the past few days, and up until now, I didn’t care.

I had hoped the booze would muddy my memory of last night, but it hasn’t. Every word she said, every expression she had, every punch to my chest to get me out of her apartment is crystal clear. I fucked up, and I don’t even know how. All I know is that the sobs I heard on the other side of Saylor’s door last night were enough to sober my stupid ass up.

For hours, I sat against her door, until a resident suggested I leave or they were going to call the police. If I hadn’t been arrested ear- lier, I probably would have encouraged them to dial Boston’s Finest. Another man might understand my plight. The woman that I want to be with kicked me out of her house, and while I probably deserved it, I didn’t want to leave until she stopped crying. I didn’t want to be the one to walk away in her time of need.

But as egos go—and believe me, mine is huge—I couldn’t let it get in the way any longer, so I walked my drunk ass back home with my tail between my legs, only to stay up all night while the booze wore off, knowing that I had to live with whatever I’d done to Saylor.

She’s the last person in the world who I want to hurt, and she’s the one person who can save me. Not only from a life behind bars, but from myself. When I’m with her, I’m a different person. The cocky son of a bitch whom everyone is used to doesn’t exist when she’s near me, and frankly, that is the man I like, or at least I used to. It’s easier being a fucking douche. It’s second nature to me and comes with the territory of being named one of the city’s most eligible bachelors.

Except when I’m with Saylor, I can be the man who hides in the shadow of that Travis Kidd. I can be the kind of man who doesn’t have to have a one-liner available or wink in order to get a phone number. When I’m with her, life outside of baseball starts to have a meaning, a fucking purpose.
