Blurb: The second the test-the-sexy-scenes offer landed in my lap, I said yes.

After all, I've been damn curious about a few things I've read in romance novels. Do buttons truly go flying across the floor when you rip off a guy's shirt? Is staircase sex hella hot or does it leave you with a big old bruise mark on your back? And don’t even get me started on all that panty shredding, and whether it even works.

Time to find out as I embark on Project Sexy Scenes Research, at the request of my hotshot book editor bestie.

All I need is a willing scene partner. Enter Tristan, my best guy friend. The witty, tell-it-like-it-is, bearded hottie volunteers for the experiment.

He's also the guy who gave me the most devastating, toe-curling kiss of my life ten years ago. But nothing has happened since then. And nothing will come between my panties and our friendship now since we have a plan to keep it PG. But once the buttons start flying, all bets are off…

Blurb:

 

Dangerous and feared.

Those words describe my future husband. Who just so happens to also be my ex-boyfriend.

It’s complicated. Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again.

Now a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. I’m his. He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. No, he did it for money. More power.

I’m going to be a mafia wife. And there’s only one way out of it. Death.

But as it turns out, someone else doesn’t want me to marry the ruthless Luca Bianchi. And if he has his way, I’ll see that early grave.

Blurb

With a hit song sitting at number one on the country music charts, Gavin McNeer thought he finally had everything he ever wanted.
All it takes is one look from the mesmerizing woman sitting in the front row at one of his shows and a brief encounter to make him realize just what he’s been missing. Even though he’s been burnt in the past, Gavin puts his inhibitions aside and his heart on the line to earn the trust of the woman who could be his everything.

Working in an industry where relationships start and end in the blink of an eye, Alyson Dawson has made it her mission not to get mixed up with musicians, no matter how good-looking they are. Keeping her focus on her blossoming career and clients, Aly doesn’t even have time to date much less fall in love. That is until she meets Gavin, a man who changes everything with one smoldering look.

Just when these two begin to settle into their new relationship, Aly is asked to do something that may require her to choose between the career she’s building and the man she’s falling in love with. To make things worse, Gavin’s ex decides to add a touch of drama to an already delicate situation.

Will their love survive, or become just another sad love song?

RELEASE BLITZ: Where Love Lives by K. Street





Title: Where Love Lives
Series: Maplewood Falls #2
Author: K. Street
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 23, 2020



Blurb

I’ve never had a place to call home.
Growing up in foster care, I learned not to get attached.
The day Easton Chadwick walks into my life, my sense of self-preservation falls by the wayside.
When I’m in his arms, it’s easy to believe in the fairy tale. Then, tragedy strikes, serving as a soul-crushing reminder that nothing lasts forever.
Suffocated by fear, I pack my bags, leaving Easton and the town of Maplewood Falls behind.
Several months later, I come face-to-face with the man who still owns nearly every part of me, but one night fueled by alcohol and bad decisions doesn’t change anything.
At least, that’s what I tell myself …
Until those two pink lines appear.
For the first time in my life, I’m willing to lay my heart on the line for a family and a place to call home.
Because home is where love lives.

Excerpt

Our parents walked over, and my dad hauled me against his chest, hugging me tight.
He pulled back, looked me in the eye, and then asked, “You okay, Tater Tot?”
I held his gaze when I gave him my answer, “I’m okay, Daddy.”
He placed a kiss on my forehead. “You’re getting there, baby girl. You’re getting there.”
“All right, stop monopolizing our daughter.”
“Patience has never been your mama’s strong suit,” Dad remarked.
She gigged him in the side.
Daddy gave her a stern look. “Woman.”
“I’ve been married to you for over thirty-four years. I’d say that’s some kind of patience.” She cocked her hip.
“Is that right?”
“It sure is.”
My daddy gripped my mama around her waist, dipped her low, and kissed her within an inch of her life. Catcalls and wolf whistles filled the air.
He held her tight as he stood. Mom buried her face in his chest. Daddy wouldn’t let her hide though. He hooked his finger under her chin, tilting her face upward.
Their eyes locked.
“I love you, baby,” he professed.
“I love you back.” She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the mouth.
Emotion swelled inside me at the sight of my parents. The love surrounding them was tangible. They’d had so many years together. An old, familiar ache flared in my chest.
My daddy always looked at my mama like she’d hung the moon and sprinkled the stars in the night sky. When I was little, my mother had often told me to marry a man who looked at me the way my father looked at her.
And so, I had. Then, I’d lost him.
I looked up to find Jase looking at me. And I saw it. The same look of utter adoration my father wore every time my mother walked into the room.
Grandma’s words settled in my soul.
“One day, you’ll be ready to open your heart again, and you’ll see that maybe where forever ends is just a different beginning.”
I smiled at Jase with the pieces of my heart, and he smiled at me with the whole of his.

Review/Blog Tour: Dad Bod by Silla Webb & Kaden Layne

LIVE!!!

GENRE: CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE/ROMANTIC COMEDY
  Have you ever loved something so much you’d do anything to protect it? Keep it safe, no matter the expense to yourself? No matter how miserable it makes you? Yeah, we all have. Some folks feel the need to protect their loved ones—I feel the need to protect my six-pack. And my washboard has been well protected beneath sixty pounds of hardened man chub, but my sexy abs are about to make a comeback. I do it alright, even sign up for a trainer at the gym. This dude is just what I need to get back on track. He’ll give me the brutal drill sergeant attitude I need to kick my ass in line. It’s gonna be freakin’ awesome. Imagine my shock and shrinking manhood when Jordan Williams walks in. A five-feet-six inch chick with more curves than a back road and just the right amount of sass and sweet. She’s bold as brass and tough as nails, and I’m completely screwed. She encourages me to set three milestones for my weight loss, a way to reward myself for the pounds shed. One is getting back on the dating scene. It’s not what I expect, but I have a hard time saying no to her. I’m not only losing my dad bod but my man card too. All it takes is three disastrous dates and several awkward situations for me to realize who I really want to show all my tools to is right in front of me. Busting my ass in the gym every day. Maybe I should have concentrated just as much on protecting my heart as I have my abs. Jordan is out of my league, and my goal is to get on her level.

RELEASE BLITZ - The Trouble with Gravity by K.K. Allen




Title: The Trouble with Gravity
A Standalone Enemies to Lovers Romance
Series: Gravity #3
Author: K.K. Allen
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 2, 2020



Blurb

From USA Today bestselling and award-winning author K.K. Allen comes a steamy enemies-to-lovers standalone romance.

Kai’s life is a series of choreographed steps, each one shielding her from the tragic memories of her past. Audition, dance, paycheck, repeat. It’s a broken record, but it’s what keeps her world spinning.
When a tall, mysterious stranger zooms into her life wielding his Aussie accent like it’s a weapon and effectively shattering her tightly woven cocoon, her safe and secure world quickly begins to unravel.

Sebastian’s theater production is a sinking ship. To add insult to injury he’s obligated to give it one final run.
The mission is simple—salvage what he can before they all go down with the wreckage.
But first he needs to convince the woman who despises him, despite her darkest fears, to join the cast.

Without her, his past will undoubtedly destroy his future. But with her... he may be opening himself up to more of a challenge than he bargained for.

RELEASE BLITZ - Sweet Agony by Terri Anne Browning




Title: Sweet Agony
Series: Angel's Halo MC Next Gen #2
Author: Terri Anne Browning
Genre: New Adult/MC/Mafia Romance
Release Date: December 31, 2019



Blurb

Vengeance was something I’d been waiting all my life to deliver. It would be sweet and worth every risk I’d taken to get to this point.

I was moments away from pulling the trigger, taking the life of the man who’d cost my father his…

And then she was dragged into the room, struggling and fighting for freedom.

The moment I set eyes on Tavia, everything changed. Those darker than espresso eyes were full of fear, her mouth so ripe that had once begged me to devour it trembling in fright. She looked up at me through a curtain of thick, long lashes and gasped.

“Theo,” she whispered, her voice cracking as those eyes I’d fallen hard for filled with tears. “Help me.”

It was then I realized my Tavia was also his.

My enemy’s daughter.
