Marlena
Everyone has their limits. Mine? It's one
that should have never been crossed. Now thanks to my ex-boyfriend, all of
Hollywood thinks I trade sex for roles. You can imagine how my auditions go
these days. This town has enough real scandals without him adding fake ones to
the mix. But I have a plan. And it was going so well... until Jude Fisher came
along.
Jude
When my ex-wife sold the footage of herself
cheating on me with another man, I was done. With scandal, with her, with all
the fakeness this industry thrives on. Finding her as the only actress up for
co-lead in my new BDSM movie was the last thing I needed. Then Marlena Taylor
auditioned, and I found everything I need. A gifted actress, a natural
submissive… and a woman I can’t resist.
All she’s missing is knowledge about the
lifestyle--my lifestyle.
I'm more than happy to tutor her--to show
her the ropes, if you will. I’ll teach her everything about the games. The
toys. The dynamic.
I'll teach her everything but the sex.
That’s my hard limit.
But we’re quickly finding out that there’s
no limit to what’s between us.
Meet Katana
Collins:
When Katana Collins was younger and
stole her mother’s Harlequins to read beneath the covers with a flashlight, she
wanted to read about the tough as nails heroine. The perfectly imperfect girl
with quirks and attitude and sass. And the anti-heroes who were anything but
“Prince Charming.” Forget the knight on a white horse… she wanted the bad boy
on a motorcycle.
So, now, she writes those romance
novels she craved to see on the shelves all those years ago—the sassy heroines.
The badass heroes. Since penning her first romance novel back in 2012, she is
now an international author with 15 published books and counting.
She lives in Portland, Maine, with
an ever-growing brood of rescue animals: a kind of mean cat, a really doofy
lab, a very mellow chihuahua, and a very not
mellow cairn terrier puppy... oh yeah, there's a husband somewhere in that
mix, too. She can usually be found hunched over her laptop in a cafe, guzzling
gallons of coffee, and wearing fabulous (albeit sometimes impractical) shoes.

Review: Misadventures Of a Rookie by Toni Aleo
Thursday, March 29, 2018
Releases: April 10, 2018
Winning has always come naturally for stud ice hockey defenseman Gus “the Bus” Persson. On the ice or off, he’s never had any trouble scoring, racking up goals―and girls. As the best player in his rookie class and the number-one draft pick of the Malibu Suns, he’s taking his game to the next level and is justifiably full of swagger. So why does one of the Suns’ ice girls treat him like he’s invisible? Bo St. James doesn’t have time for rookie hotshots who think their gloves don’t stink. She knows them, she works with them, she trains them. It doesn’t matter that Gus Persson is the hottest newbie she’s ever seen. She knows his type. She’s got big plans of her own, and she’s not going to let some cocky rich kid athlete keep her from her goals. But there’s a chemistry between them they cannot deny. A lust that burns so hot, it threatens to melt the very ice on which they make their livings. The game has changed for both of them. Together, can these two play to win?
My 4 star review:
This was my first Misadventures book as well as the first book I’ve read by Toni Aleo. I’d have to give it 4 stars.
It’s started off a little iffy for me. Took me a few chapters to get in to the story. Mostly because Gus was too much an arrogant ass. After powering through those first few chapters, I couldn’t put the book down. It was very good.
I enjoyed the banter between Bo and Gus. I liked how Bo didn’t give in to Gus from the very beginning.
One of the best parts? All scenes with Gus’s parents! They were a hoot! Loved them.

Release Blitz + Review:What He Always Knew by Kandi Steiner

What
He Always Knew
Release Date: March 29th, 2018
What He Doesn’t Know Duet
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: March 29th, 2018
What He Doesn’t Know Duet
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Left or right.
It’s that simple, and it isn’t simple at all.
If I turn left, the road will lead me back to the man I promised my life to, the one I’d imagined building a family with, the one who’s done everything in his power to get me back.
If I turn right, the road will take me to the man I loved first, the man who brought me back to life, the man who would do anything to keep me.
I knew the fork in the road was inevitable; it was the decision I never wanted to make between choices I didn't know I had.
And I love them both.
My heart is destined to exist in two equal halves — one with each man. But one half beats stronger, the vein running deepest, and holds my choice in silence long before I know it for myself.
The realization of what I have to do, of the heart I have to break, just might break mine too.
Left or right.
All I have to do is take a breath and turn.

My 5 Star Review:
I LOVED this duet so much, more than words can say. It’s absolutely a work of art! No doubt that this is one of my favorite books ever! The writing is superb and without question the best book Kandi has written!
My heart broke for all three. No matter the choice that was made, Cam, Reese and Charlie all experienced pain. I felt for Charlie having to make such a decision, but also so, so angry at her for some of the things she did. Of course, I was rooting for one man in particular so I *might* be a little bias.
This duet is angsty. There is a triangle, there is cheating but there is love. So much love through this journey. If I could recommend ANY book, ever, it would be this duet. The pain and anxiety of not knowing who she would end up with, it was so worth it, because you also feel the love through this story. 5 amazing stars!!

Coming Soon+Excerpt: The Birthday List by Devney Perry

THE BIRTHDAY LIST
By Devney Perry
Standalone
Release Day – April 3, 2018
Happily married to her college
sweetheart, Poppy lived a blessed life with the husband of her dreams. Then
everything changed. She is no longer a wife. She is no longer the envy of her
single friends. Now, people look at her with pity as they whisper a single word
behind her back.
Widow.
Years after her husband’s tragic
death, years of pain and sorrow and wishing for the life she’ll never get back,
Poppy decides to finish Jamie’s birthday list. She’ll do the things he wanted
to most. Because maybe, just maybe, if she can complete his list, she can start
to live again.
Poppy expects going through the
birthday list will be hard. She expects it to hurt. But what she doesn’t expect
is Cole. Could the man who delivered the news of her husband’s death and
shattered her heart be the one to help her put it back together again?

EXCERPT
“That’s quite a list.” Cole nodded toward the journal in
between bites.
“It is.” My smile faltered at the way his jaw hardened.
“Are you planning on doing these all by yourself?”
“Um, yes.” How else was I going to get through them all?
“That’s going to take a while.”
“I hope not,” I sighed. “My goal is to get them done before
New Year’s.”
“What?” His spoon dropped into the jar, clinking against
the glass. “That’s less than six months away.”
“I know.” Just thinking about all I still had to do made my
shoulders fall. “I thought I could do it, but with the restaurant and some of
the bigger things on the list, it will take longer. I was really hoping to have
it done before Jamie’s birthday.”
That seemed impossible now. With the restaurant and all of
the other things I was adding to my daily schedule, piling on more was going to
wear me thin. If I didn’t let up, my self-imposed deadline would stress me to
the max.
Which meant it would take just that much longer to put this
list behind me. Could I do it if I added another year? Maybe two?
I didn’t have to do this all so soon. But I wanted to. I
wanted to do this for Jamie and let it go. Every day, I was getting stronger. I
was getting back on my feet. I was starting to live again—for me.
And until the list was done, I’d still be living for Jamie.
“Look.” Cole leaned his elbows on the table. “I don’t want
to step on your toes. This is an awesome list and he had some cool ideas. If
you want to do them on your own, I understand. I get that this is incredibly
personal. But if you’d like, I’d be glad to help you with some of these.
“What?” I didn’t know what made me smile more. That he
thought Jamie’s list was cool or that he wanted to help. Regardless, I was
beaming. “You’d really help?”
Cole’s eyes were sparkling again. “In a heartbeat.”

From a duo of USA Today Bestselling Authors, comes the first COMPLETE STANDALONE in the Single Dads Club set of books.
Red Flags…
Too loud.
Too clingy.
Too much make-up.
I could go on and on. The other guys in the Single Dad’s Club would say I’m obsessed with finding them. But none of their kid’s mothers call a maximum-security prison home either, so their opinions mean shit.
Caterina Santora has her own list of red flags…
She’s too young.
She’s my client’s daughter.
She’s my five-year old’s camp counselor.
Even after repeating this mantra to myself every morning on the way to Lily’s summer camp, guess what happens the moment I see Cat? Yeah, that mantra turns into ride me, doggie style and reverse cowgirl.
Every. Damn. Time.
The fact that she doesn’t remember me from six years before grates on me until I don’t have it in me to leave her alone any longer. I have to have her. But our lives are opposites in every way. In no way compatible.
When we’re together all the complications fade away and I have to keep reminding myself, even if I can have her— I can’t keep her.
New Release+Review: Wait With Me by Amy Daws
Wednesday, March 21, 2018
When romance novelist Kate Smith suddenly gets writer’s block as she's beginning the final installment of her international bestselling erotic Bed ‘nBreakfast series, she'll do pretty much anything to get her groove back.
Like sneak into a Tire Depot waiting room because her words flow there just like complimentary coffee—smooth, sweet, and scorchingly hot.
She manages to fly under the radar until the rugged and charming mechanic, Miles Hudson, notices the quirky redhead slinking in and out of the employees only entrance.
But she's way too intriguing to blow the whistle on.
Doing a test-drive of her new book idea sounds like a much better option.

Hilarious Tire Shop Romance!
Wait With Me was such a sweet, easy read. Kate was hilarious. Miles was swoon worthy. I love Rom-Coms so much and this one did not disappoint! The banter was great!
I follow Amy Daws on Social Media and followed every visit she had at Tire, Tires, Tires. It was so hilarious! Seeing that play out for Kate was great! This was a quick easy read and I want more.. I wasn’t ready to say good bye to these characters. I’m hoping Amy writes more about Kate and Miles.. and possibly Lyndsey, Dean and Sam???
5 Tire Stars!!!
VIRAL SENSATION
It all began when Daws went to Tires Tires Tires to get a new set of wheels on her car. She was suffering from writer’s block, but apparently the complimentary coffee and cookies cured her. So she decided to bring in cars of friends and family so she could keep writing in the magical waiting room.
Her social media musings had her fans in stitches and it wasn't long before inspiration struck again. This time...Daws was to write a sexy romantic comedy about a romance novelist who sneaks into a tire shop and gets caught by a hot mechanic. You can imagine where the love story goes from here.
Eventually, the little tire shop opened their arms to Daws, even putting her release date on their marquee sign outside.
It wasn't long before Buzzfeed got wind of it. Then Scary Mommy. Then InspireMore and several other blogs with followers well into the millions. WGN News in Chicago, Fox 10 in Phoenix and Canada Public Radio are all talking about the adorable feel good story of how inspiration can strike in the strangest of places.
