The Revelation Duet: The Oracle by Serena Akeroyd is now live!

After a decade of pushing him away, I don't recognize Las Vegas's new Don.
Maybe my childhood best friend knew me better than I ever realized...

REVIEW
Reviewer: Tammi
Rating: 4 Groupie Stars
I wanted to hate the hero. He was a stalker, a manipulator, and downright mean sometimes But I knew there was more.
Did I fall head over heals Not right away but I came to understand him when all was revealed.
I really liked how the story was split in sections of POV instead of alternating frequently.  It allowed me to get in Phoebe's sweet, naive yet strong head.
What started as sick and somewhat twisted story turned to a love story and HEA. It was definitely a HOT AS HELL journey.
I didn't want to put it down I was so curious to see how it all played out.

#1Cʟɪᴄᴋ: https://bit.ly/theWren

As the firstborn King, I should be the heir to the Irish Syndicate.

Instead, my father wants to marry me off to the highest bidder to fund a war I don’t believe in.

My carefully controlled life starts to unravel, spiraling out of control faster than I can stop it.

And then I meet them, and I can breathe again.

Tall with perpetual smirks and covered in tattoos, they remind me what it feels like to live.

Remind me that I don’t need someone to save me.

I’m a King. I can save myself.


REVIEW

Rating: 4 Stars

The Wren is a slow build romantic suspense. It’s like a roller coaster ride, the beginning is slow moving like going up on the ride, and then it’s drops, loops and turns all the way to a crazy dramatic end. 


This book sets the scene for book two in the duet. It gives you a glimpse into each character. The reader will have a lot of questions throughout, it will have you making guesses, and then have you shocked at the answers and twists.

I can’t wait wait for book 2. I know it’s going to be jammed packed with action, six packs, swoon worthy lines, and badass females. 

If you like a book with fierce females, hot confident men, action, romance, and twists then you need to read The Wren.

Release Blitz: Stunner by Jessica Prince

 

 

Title: Stunner
Series: Whiskey Dolls
Author: Jessica Prince


Contemporary Romance; Small Town Romance; RomCom; Best Friend’s Ex



Never in a million years did I think I’d be jilted on my wedding day.

Around the time Asher Rose was supposed to say “I do”, she was bellied up to a bar full of bikers, three sheets to the wind and feeling sorry for herself. The last person she expected to come to her rescue was Owen Shields.

He was tattooed, broody, and her ex-fiancé’s best friend. The arrogant jerk who was supposed to be the best man at her wedding was never supposed to be her knight in shining armor.

Falling for Owen was never part of the plan, but when the gorgeous town vet throws everything he has her way, including his adorable dog and angelic niece, Asher is in for the fight of her life.

**Whiskey Dolls is a series of interconnected, standalone, small town romances.**

A fantastic story!
A swoonworthy hero!
A strong likable heroine!
A bit of forbidden romance!
Mix it all up with talent of Jessica Prince and you have a book I couldn't put down.
Every book I read by this author reminds me how much I love romance stories.
She always gives me a love story and more. In her typical fashion we get a nail buying scared for our heroine scene before we get our HEA.
I LOVE THAT!
Can't wait to see what she comes up with next.




“Hi,” he said, low and gravelly.

I turned on him, making sure to narrow my eyes into slits, determined to gain my anger back after meeting the lovely Hazel, because I’d be damned if I let him get away with the silent treatment he’d been subjecting me to.

It wasn’t easy, especially not with the contrition swimming in those green eyes, but I held firm. “‘Hi’? Seriously? You’ve been ghosting me for three days and that’s how you’re going to start?”

He stepped in closer, his delicious smell making my head all fuzzy. “You look beautiful.”

Oh, he was good. Damn it! Stay strong, Asher! I silently scolded. I blew past the compliment like I hadn’t heard it, even while flutters erupted in my chest.

Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.

Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.

In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.

Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.

RELEASE BLITZ: Pride and Pina Coladas by Melanie Summers

 

Release Date: September 22


From best-selling author Melanie Summers comes a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice that’ll have you laughing, swooning, and sipping fruity blender drinks…

I’m Nora Cooper—single woman about to turn thirty, wildly unsuccessful plant fanatic, and event planner at Paradise Bay Resort. My shot at ‘the big time’ has finally arrived—the resort is hosting the World Bartender Championships and I’ve been asked to head up the hospitality team.

There’s only one big problem. And his name is Theo Rojas. You’ve heard of his family—they own Rojas Rum (and about 200 other premium liquors, some of which may be on your shelf right now). As the major sponsor of the event, Theo has decided to be onsite, micromanaging every second of the competition.

He’s stuck up, rude, and arrogant (and a bunch of other adjectives I had better not use). He also seems to have added ‘make Nora’s life absolute hell’ to the top of his to-do list.

Too bad for Mr. Grumpy Chinos because he doesn’t know who he’s dealing with. I’ve taken on far worse foes than him. And if he thinks he’s going to get the best of me, he’s in for a wake-up call.

So when we find ourselves stranded on a private island overnight, I’m determined to put him in his place once and for all.
Only somehow, instead of continuing our constant sparring, I find myself gazing longingly into his gorgeous eyes.
And now I have totally forgotten all the nasty things I was planning to say to him. Something about him being arrogant, right?

Gah! Someone please send help because I absolutely CANNOT fall for this guy…

You often hear about books being entertained and funny , you read it and then you’re disappointed because it just didn’t hit the spit BUT THIS IS JOT THE CASE this time round ! I laughed al hard and the first time Nora tickled me funny bone I snorted my morning coffee and let me tell you a latte through your nostril is not very dignified 😱😂

Nora works as an events coordinator at a resort and they’re about to host a huge event almost like a “ cocktail bartender survivor “ , the main sponsor, Theo is trying to save his family company , Rojas, by attracting the younger generation to their brand so he’s rather intense when it comes to arrangements, rules and regulations and that really irks our Nora and sometimes she thinks he’s quite haughty but these two are highly entertaining 😂


Do yourself a favour make a pina colada or mojito , sit back and chill with this read, watch as things are shaken and stirred 😉😂

I got SUPER lucky and my first novel, Break in Two, a steamy contemporary romance cracked the Top 10 Paid on Amazon in both the UK and Canada, and the top 50 Paid in the USA. My Full Hearts Series was then picked up by both Piatkus Entice (a division of Hachette UK) and HarperCollins Canada. 


My first three books have been translated into Czech and Slovak by EuroMedia. Since 2013, I've written and published sixteen novels and three novellas (and counting). I've sold over a quarter of a million books around the globe, and received two Bronze Medals at the Readers’ Favorite Award in the Chick Lit Category for The Royal Treatment (2018) and Whisked Away (2019), and one Silver Medal at the Readers' Favorite Awards in the Women's Fiction Category for The After Wife (2019). 


Not bad for a newbie, eh?


I'm from Edmonton, Canada, where I live with my taller half, our three 'spirited' children (such a nice word to describe the chaos, no?). We also share our home with the cuddliest no-eyed dog ever, Lucy, and a furry Cuban dictator named Nelson. When I'm not writing, I love reading (obviously), snuggling up on the couch with the gang for movie night (which would not be complete without lots of popcorn and milkshakes), and long walks in the woods near my house.

I also spend a lot more time thinking about doing yoga than actually doing it, which is why any authorized photos of me are taken ‘from above’.

 

Oh, and I also love shutting down restaurants with my girlfriends. Well, not literally shutting them down, like calling the health inspector or something. More like just staying until they turn the lights off.

From USA Today best-selling author, Willow Winters, comes a tempting tale of fated love, lust-filled secrets and the beginnings of an epic war.

Everything warns me that my life will change forever. That the world will crumble and burn. I don’t know what will happen or what will become of us. All I know is that, in his eyes, I belong to him.

Each book is better than the previous one it’s like aging red wine it just gets better with time 😉 I love how they just flow into each so make sure you start at the very beginning! ❣️📕
Grace and Devin are pure perfection , they’re each other’s matching puzzle pieces❣️
Lizzie is so much better and if ever there was a perfect love triangle it would be these three ❣️❣️❣️ Lizzie had really deep scars and trauma and these 2 are her healing balm for sure . They’re damn hot 🔥
Veronica and Vince took me by surprise at first and things were rather strained between them at end of primal list but Vince wants her and needs her and it’s mutual so no Mayer what I believe lust and love will prevail 🐾🧛‍♀️❣️
So just to add to the mix we get witches 🧙‍♀️ and it’s getting really interesting , add corruption , spice and tension to the cauldron and things are getting tense and war is looming ….
Did we end with a cliffhanger ? Yes ! Do we care?
No! Why ? Just like the vamps crave bliss and the wolves each other I can grace more of what’s to come 😉


Meet Willow Winters


I started writing after having my little girl, Evie, December of 2015. All during my pregnancy with her I read. I only wanted to read romance novels and I read everything I could get my hands on. I would read a book a day — sometimes two. In January I was staying up late with her and just thinking of all these stories. They came to me constantly. I finally sat down and just started writing. I always wanted to do it so I figured, why not?

I never thought I would reach this point of success to be honest. It’s insane to me that I have connected with so many readers. 


And I love each and every one of them for all of their support. I’ll be honest, some days are HARD. I have my littles during the day and I write at night. Some days are just simply exhausting and then I hear from a reader and it motivates me to push through and keep writing.  I couldn’t be more grateful for this wonderful career.

Release Blitz: Only a Secret by Delancy Stewart


Release Date: September 26

My life is over. At least my life as a child actress. Because guess what? I haven't been a child for years, but no one seems able to forget the curly haired little girl I was on that insipid sitcom.

So when my best friend from high school invites me to the tiny mountain town where she's settled to attend the opening of some fancy new ski resort? I go, hoping maybe in nowheresville, Colorado, no one will remember who I used to be.

And when I meet the handsome and broody Harrison Ketcher, I think I've gotten my wish.

They call him "Brainiac" so it's no surprise he never watched the show. He was too busy memorizing physics books, I guess. He's a former fighter pilot slash engineering professor on sabbatical in Kasper Ridge, and despite being a few years older than the guys I usually date, 
there's something irresistible about him.

Maybe it's that he has no idea who I am. Maybe it's those 
steely blue eyes. Maybe it's the feeling that I'm the only person in the world who makes him laugh in that low, sexy way.

But the closer I get to Harrison, the more certain I am that I'm not the only one keeping secrets. He doesn't know who I am... but do I really know who he is?

Again I find myself cross with myself for not having read previous books and it’s not because I felt lost it’s because I feel like I’ve done myself an injustice to withhold such magic from myself ❣️📕

Penny was a childhood Hollywood star but that life is now over and with the scandal her parents aided in she just wants to get away and be Penny the person which I have understanding for so she heads to Colorado to join her friends at Kasper Ridge to renovate ,live a quiet life and decide where to go now with her life ….


Harrison aka Brainiac former pilot and engineering professor is on a sabbatical and heads out to Kasper Ridge to help an old friend renovate a resort and bring it to life again ….


Watching the friends bond and laugh over past antics is one thing but Penny and Harrison was on a whole other level and they’re easy to live , they made me laugh ,swoon,cry and cheer them on from my kindle in the corner 📕❣️


I’d love to go for a visit to Kasper Ridge to hang with the people there and perhaps learn to ski 
Meet Delancey Stewart

Hi there!

I'm USA Today Bestselling author Delancey Stewart. My contemporary romances run the gamut of settings and setups, but they always deliver humor, heart and heat. It's a guarantee.


I write from my home near Denver, CO, where I manage a household full of boys and men. Okay, only one man. The hubs. But two boys. I mean, three if you count the hubs. (You see why I do words and not numbers. I was told there'd be no math in this bio. Someone lied.) There is also a dog named Charlie Taco. 

I grew up in California and have had more jobs than anyone on earth (personal trainer, pharmaceutical rep, copywriter, tech writer, marketing director, wine seller, elementary school teacher... I'm not kidding. The list. It goes on.) But the one I love the most is writing, in part because I get to meet people who love books and stories as much as I do!

Crew Taylor is the picture of perfection, if gruff, grumpy, and prone to throw a punch is your type. Clearly, it’s mine or I wouldn’t be begging him to bite the bullet and claim my virginity as his own. 

 

Sure, he’s a bit of a caveman, broody and bossy and oh so naughty, but that’s sort of the point. 

He’s experienced, his heated hazel eyes promising sinful skills in seduction, and I want him to teach me all he knows. 

 

Lesson by lesson.

He says he won’t allow me in his bed … but I wonder what it would take to get him to play in mine a bit?

What a cracking read by my unicorn author.
This book was not what I expected. I started reading and it was sweet and emotional and then bam the story turned a complete different way to what I was expecting . I love this trope but this story wasn’t simply a brothers best friend story. It threw my in a loop how it changed up and definitely wasn’t what I was expecting.
I loved the dynamic between Crew and Davis. They knew each other inside out , or so you think. There’s definitely bits missing that the other doesn’t no about them.
I loved the depth the author went to and the sexual tension.
Great story!
