RELEASE BLITZ - The Long Way by Alice Tribue




Title: The Long Way
Author: Alice Tribue
Genre: Contemporary Second Chance Romance
Release Date: September 27, 2018



Blurb

Life lesson number one… If you find the love of your life, fight for him.

Life lesson number two… If you’re dumb enough to let the love of your life go, don’t let years pass without trying to get him back.

Life lesson number three… If he does come back, don’t help him take over your father’s multi-million-dollar company…even if your father had it coming.

I fell in love, had it all, and lost it all in the blink of an eye. I was young, naïve, and not in control of my own life. I was resigned to the fact that I would never see Sam again. So when I attended a meeting with the unknown buyer initiating a hostile takeover of my father’s company, I was stunned and horrified to come face to face with Sam. Only this wasn’t the Sam that I remembered. Gone was the sweet, romantic, kind boy I loved, and in his place was a cold, ruthless, and calculating man. Maybe I was right. Maybe I would never see my Sam again… or would I?

RELEASE BOOST - Delivering History by Jenni M Rose




Title: Delivering History
Series: Freehope #4
Author: Jenni M Rose
Genre: Contemporary Small Town Romance
Release Date: September 24, 2018



Blurb

Pregnant with her sister’s baby, her love-life isn’t even on the radar.

Just when Alexa Walker has given up on finding her happy-ever-after to focus on her career as the Bad Girl of Sweets, in walks Dylan James, steaming cup of coffee in his outstretched hand. Alex has never been the nice sister. 
She’s the snarky one. The skeptic. Unapproachable. 
That’s probably why everyone was so surprised when she offered to carry a baby for her sister, Beth. Making up for a decade-long feud is bound to take some sacrifices and after finally burying the hatchet, Alex is ready to put her best sisterly foot forward. 

Upper crust, old Boston money, and part of the infamous Boston Billionaires Club, Dylan doesn’t have a lot of free time and he definitely doesn’t have time to hang around a coffee shop that’s not even in his neighborhood, waiting for the Bad Girl of Sweets to deliver her weekly confections. He doesn’t have time until he sees her and knows he needs to make the time. She’s fiery and fierce, witty and bright, and that was only their first introduction. Suddenly, chocolate croissants aren’t all Dylan’s craving.

Dylan isn’t exactly sure what he’s getting into with Lexi Walker, his Bad Girl of Sweets, but he knows he’ll take her any way he can get her. Pregnant with someone else’s baby or not.

Excerpt

“Better get this in while you can. In a few months, I’ll be like a keg with legs.”
Lexi was not a big woman to begin with. Not much more than five feet tall, he wasn’t sure how she’d carry a baby without looking like a keg with legs.
He liked her enough that he wanted to be around to see it.
“When it comes time, I’ll just roll you down the hall,” he joked.
She nipped his jaw, catching a bit of flesh, making him hiss. “Women don’t like jokes about their weight.”
“You did.”
“That’s different.”
Noted, he thought dryly.
“My apologies,” he offered. “But the fact remains. I’ll take you any way I can get you, Lex. Pregnant, not pregnant, doesn’t matter. I just want you.” He settled her on the bed, laying her down and working on the buckle of her heels. “I’ll still want to slide these shoes off your feet.” He dropped one to the floor and then the other. “I’ll still want to peel these pants, that do amazing things for your ass, by the way, off to see what’s underneath.” He did just that, revealing her short, toned legs, and discarded them with her shoes. “I’ll still want to take this off,” he whispered, tugging her sweater until she let him pull it over her head, “and spread your hair out behind you on the bed.”
God, when he looked down at her, all spread out like that, he knew he was a goner. She was smiling up at him, her black hair spread out like an ink puddle underneath her head. Even her bra and panties were black, the bra having no straps, just a band across her chest.
The underwear were no more than a scrap of fabric.
“You just going to stand there looking at me all night?” she asked, lifting her foot to run a toe across his chest.
“I could,” he admitted, his eyes glued to her stomach. There was a deep, red mark across her middle, where her pants had dug into her skin, too tight for the tiny, burgeoning baby bump she sported. It nearly took his breath away, the significance of what her body was doing. He spread his fingers across her belly, the little protrusion hard under his hand. “Don’t wear those pants anymore,” he said quietly. “They’re hurting you.”
“Fashion is pain,” she joked.
“I’m serious, Lex.” He crawled over her, placing a kiss on the soft skin of her stomach. She even smelled sweet there, like sugar and comfort. “No more of this.” He ran his fingers along the indent and then met her eyes. “No more.”
She wrapped a leg around him, the silky skin of her thigh against his side.
“I can’t go home without pants on, Dylan,” she reasoned. “But yeah, I won’t wear those ones anymore. Too fat for that.”
“Not fat,” he argued, his hand splayed across the bump. Too amazing, he thought.

COVER REVEAL - Once Upon a Scandal by Madison Faye




Title: Once Upon a Scandal
Series: Royally Screwed #6
Author: Madison Faye
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Cover Design: Coverlüv
Photo: Wander Aguiar
Release Date: October 1, 2018



Blurb

Once upon a time, a nobody met a prince.
Then she met his best friend, a second prince.
Then she learned they like to share, and that’s when things got interesting.
That’s when things got downright scandalous.

My life has never been a fairytale. Absent parents, a grandmother gone too soon, and a job working the kitchens for the most heinous bitch in the Kingdom of Bandiff.

But that’s before I sneak into the hottest royal ball on the planet. That’s before I waltz right into them.

The McDermott Princes. Princes, plural. There’s two of them – both gorgeous beyond belief, alpha as hell, and more tempting than sin. Both with their eyes on me and both with that look that says that I’m theirs.

Two princes, one baker. This might sound like too many cooks in the kitchen, but they say they like to share. They say they’ll tear their whole kingdom down to make me theirs. They say they want to make me their Queen.

Pretty soon, breaking into a royal ball is the least of my problems.

This is a disaster waiting to happen. It’s filthy, and oh-so-wrong. It’s a royal scandal of epic proportions, and I’m right in the middle of it.

…I’m right in the middle of them.

Maybe this is a fairytale after all. Ever heard of the cook who found a crown? How about two crowns? Two big, dominant, mouthwatering, pulse-quickening crowns.

I’ve never found a happy ever after. Now, I think I’m about to find two of them.

COVER REVEAL - Sins of the Father by Marie James




Title: Sins of the Father: A Ravens Ruin Novel
Series: Ravens Ruin 
Author: Marie James
Genre: MC/Dark Contemporary Romance
Cover Design: Letitia Hasser, RBA Designs
Release Date: October 11, 2018



Blurb

I’m not misunderstood.

I’m not confused about my position in life.

I’m not looking for answers to explain why I am the way I am.

This is the logic others use to try to make sense of me. According to them, there has to be a reason for my apathy. There has to be some sort of explanation for the calculating way I run my Club. There has to be a root cause for my depravity.

They can’t wrap their heads around the fact that I’m evil, that I’m darkness personified. Doing so would force them to acknowledge that the Devil has left Hell and is living among them.

Most people may think I’m Satan, but I answer to Lynch, President of the Ravens Ruin MC, and the Antichrist doesn’t have sh*t on me.

Heart Trouble (Hearts & Health Book 1)

Cover Design: Garrett Leigh @ Black Jazz Design

 

Synopsis

 

When Gage Evans gets a look at his hot nurse, he's smitten immediately. Too bad he's given the nurse the impression he's some kind of daredevil. It couldn't be further from the truth. Gage is a college journalism instructor writing a series of guest columns that require him to jump into new experiences -- a fun bucket list, but one that does nothing to convince Ben he's not an adrenaline junkie.

Fresh off his latest heartbreak, nurse Ben Griggs is wary when one of his patients shows an interest in him -- especially when that patient showed up in the ER after a motorcycle accident. Ben's ex was a biker, a friend with benefits, and he dropped Ben cold when someone more interesting came along. Ben isn't the kind of guy who can hold the interest of an adrenaline junkie like Gage Evans for long. The last thing he wants is to lose his heart to the wrong man again. The more Ben gets to know Gage, the harder he is to resist. He can only hold on for the ride and keep his guard up as much as he can. But Ben's lack of trust seriously gets in the way of building a relationship, and Gage will only be patient so long. Can he trust Gage enough to give him heart, or are they destined to have a fling that goes nowhere?

Bedside Manner (Hearts & Health Book 2)

Cover Design: Garrett Leigh @ Black Jazz Design

 

Synopsis

Dr. Paul Johnston can't get a set of dark, somber eyes out of his head, and the timing couldn't be worse. The last thing he needs is to fall for a patient. Not now, when he's been put on paid leave pending review of a formal complaint. One that accuses him of sexual impropriety of some kind. It's possible he let his newfound freedom as a divorced, out-of-the-closet gay man go to his head, but he's certain -- mostly -- he didn't do anything wrong. Now, he's struggling to handle the reality that his job is in danger and the only guy he wants should be off-limits. Zane Kavanaugh is floundering, and there's only one man who soothes the storm inside him. Reeling from an assault that landed him in the hospital and the painful estrangement from his family since coming out, Zane is trying to get his feet under him. He moves in with a roommate and searches for a job, all while recovering from a fractured arm and cracked ribs. None of that hurts as much as the emotional damage he's suffered. When he connects with Dr. Paul Johnston outside of the ER, he's drawn to the man's calm, collected manner. It doesn't hurt that Paul's lack of experience with men is sexy as hell, and so are his over-the-top responses when Zane gets his lips on him. There's no right time to fall in love. Paul is afraid to start a relationship, and Zane can only handle so much more rejection. Will these two find their perfect moment, or will they realize you can't choose when and how you fall in love? If Paul can't take a risk, he may have to choose: the career he loves or the first man to capture his heart.

He was reckless, hotheaded, and bad.

A tattooed god was once my best friend. My first love. My reason for existence.
