Front man for East of Addiction.

A rock God.

Easton Evans has everything he ever wanted. To be a part of a world-famous rock band, fame, money, and his choice in women.

They’ve been on the road touring for nearly a year, and by all appearances, Easton has a perfect life, but something is missing. He just doesn’t know what that is yet.

Like a falling star, Easton is burning out—running on fumes. Not to mention a fan’s undying infatuation with him is reaching stalker level. He needs a vacation before the road snuffs out his creative flames for good.

A small town in Tennessee looks like the perfect place to lie low and find peace.

Until he steps foot on Connelly Ranch and meets Beca, a spitfire redhead.

Becca is barely keeping her head above water. She’s stretching herself thin, doing everything she can to keep the bank from taking her family’s legacy.

She’s convinced Easton is nothing more than a heartbreaker, your stereotypical playboy who is used to getting what he wants.

Easton is determined to prove her wrong.

Until Easton is part of Aurora Rose Reynolds's Happily Ever Alpha World. If you loved Until Jax, then you will want to read Until Easton.

Peyton Legori swore off hockey players a long time ago. But when her jerk of a boyfriend throws her out, and her brother’s friend is the one that comes to the rescue, she can’t resist. And after one night of undeniable passion, her life will never be the same.

About the Author:

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.

A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible.

Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...

She was the one woman I couldn’t resist . . .

Half past thirty and still single, my father rode my ass daily about getting married, starting a family, and looking the part. I needed to soften my enforcer image and have the outward appearance that I was on the straight and narrow.

When I argued that I wasn't ready to settle down, he explained that no one ever was, and none of them ever did...with a wink. I laughed, until I thought about my mother. I might be a tough guy in a dangerous world, but I wanted a woman who could handle me at my worst and positively adore me at my best. Was that so much to ask of a wife?

There'd only ever been one girl who came close to that: Marla. She was plenty tough herself. She had to be. She grew up in the world, as well. And when she came to me asking for help to avenge her brother’s death, I was more than happy to help . . . for a price.

Marriage. To me. A mafia capo . . . the very thing she swore she’d never do.

Heartless Sinner is the first book in the Made for the Mafia series. Each book in the series stands alone and ends in a guaranteed HEA.

EXCERPT

He gives me a smile so sexy that makes me want to climb onto him and ride that erection of his.
“Give me a moment,” he says as he stands under the blast of cold water.
He stands there, still erect, watching me as the water sluices down his magnificent body.
Tilting his head back, he lets the water run through his hair and then he rubs his hands across his face.
A look of pure contentment crosses his eyes, and he looks like he’s enjoying standing under a jet of cold water.
His eyes close momentarily and I continue to watch the water cascade down his hard body. He doesn’t soap himself, just stands under the cold blast of water.
He then straightens up, fiddles with the tap, before he steps away. “Come, my sweet.” He extends his hand out to me, inviting me to join him.
“You enjoy getting wet?” I ask before biting my lip.
“More than you’ll ever know.” He grins at me, and I feel myself dampen with need.
The water is pleasantly warm and he encourages me to stand under it, as he picks up my jasmine scented body wash and squeezes some into his hands.
The first touch of his hands on my back makes me shiver with longing. His fingers caress my skin, gliding along thanks to the lather. His hands gently cup my breasts before he kisses me.
His mouth is hot and demanding. There is nothing sweet about the way he is kissing me. I return the hungry kisses, and an ache of need pools in my belly.
His fingers travel downwards, and move along my pussy. One hand is cupping my breast, one hand is fingering me, and he’s continuing to kiss me making me pant with need.
“You’re so hot,” he says.
I’ve never had shower sex so I’m wondering how this works. The space is generous enough for both of us, but how? Where?
His fingers caress me intimately and I want more. I bite his ear.
“I love it when you’re like a wild cat, it turns me on,” he says.
“I can tell,” I say with a downward look to his erection. The guy has been hard for most of the time I’ve been with him, doesn’t he ever tire?
“I’m going to fuck you now,” he says.
Apparently he doesn’t tire.

I know I’m an essential part of The Sinful Seven and revel in the roar of the crowd.
As the music thumps, I find my place under the spotlights.
For a few short hours, I can just be me.
Not the murderer’s daughter.

No kids.
Never let him get too close.

Being with him would break every single rule. But, whether I’m ready to admit it or not, he just might be worth the risk. Still, I pray I’m not making a mistake. If my heart breaks again, there will be no putting the pieces back together.

EXCERPT

My phone vibrates with an incoming text and I roll over to see Caleb’s number. I’m hesitant to answer. I also know if I don’t he’ll worry and pace. Best to just rip off the Band-Aid right here and now.
Caleb: How are you feeling?
Me: Like I’ve been hit by a train. But I’ll be fine.
Caleb: Try to get some rest. I’ll drop your car off after work.
Me: Caleb—
Caleb: What do you need, love?
You. Only you. How do you thank someone for saving you from the roller coaster called life? With all of its highs and lows. Swallowing the lump in my throat, I push on.
Me: Thank you for saving me when I never knew I needed rescuing. Sorry, I said and did all those nasty—
My phone rings and I know this is too deep for him to text. “Hey, Boss Man.”
“I didn’t save you, Willow. I was just the catalyst that guided you through. You did it all on your own, love. You don’t ever have to apologize for lashing out at me. I’d gladly absorb all of your grief if I knew you were pain-free. Now, get some rest and I’ll see you later.”
“Have I told you lately how bossy you are?” Caleb makes me smile, even with his dry sense of humor.
“Every time you call me Boss Man, so I’d say that’s a yes. I’ll grab us takeout so we can eat dinner together. Sound good?”
“I think you might be falling for me, Boss Man. Be careful, I’m a handful. See you later, and make sure it’s Thai.” Ending the call, I lie back down and realize that I’m the one who’s falling for him. Not the other way around. Caleb doesn’t need my crazy, but it sure would be nice to have someone who gets me.

COVER REVEAL: Ranger Danger by L.A. Wayward




Title: Ranger Danger
Author: L.A. Wayward
Genre: Dark Romance
Cover Design: Kendra Moreno, Rabbit Hole Graphics
Release Date: February 11, 2022


BLURB

You’re mine now

His raw words bring me to my knees
Making me beg for the freedom I crave
He found me alone in the woods
Brought me to his self-imposed prison to wait out the storm, locking us together in a forbidden embrace

To play with
To own
To mark as his

Releasing me from my dirty cage
He wants everything
All my firsts, staking claims for any man who dares to question him
His past still haunts his dreams, and I’m just the girl to release his demons

Can this Alpha, this lone older wolf, turn out to be my salvation?
The one to get my dark, twisted thoughts?
Yes, he takes what he wants, but will he ask me to stay once he finds out the reason why I’m here?

This Ranger is Danger personified
The only question is:
Will he fight for me, or let me go when the storm ends?

EXCERPT

“Trust me when I say I’m the wolf in the woods I warned you about,” he grounds out.
“I wasn’t insinuating,” I whisper. “I saw the picture of you in your uniform and thought—”
“You thought I had honor? You thought I wouldn’t take what I want when it’s being offered to me in such a pretty package.” His voice is hard with an edge, while he runs a single finger down my leg.
A shiver goes through me as wetness builds between my thighs. Without thinking, I open my knees a little, his eyes following each movement. What I would give to have his hands trail up and down my legs and slip between the waistline of my pants so he can feel how wet he makes me. How turned on I am knowing he could easily overpower and fuck me.
His eyes slip over my body, and the corner of his mouth twitches. I shudder because it isn’t a kind smile, it’s something entirely different.
I swallow hard when reality hits me. I’m alone in a stranger’s cabin, snowed in for days. Fear and excitement take hold of me, my stomach doing a little backflip.
He can do anything to me.
Anything he wants, and I would let him if he asked.

RELEASE BLITZ: My Beautiful Chaos by Swati M.H.




Title: My Beautiful Chaos
Author: Swati M.H.
Genre: Fake Relationship
Second Chance Romance
Release Date: January 20, 2022


BLURB

Love wanes.

That’s what my missing groom told me over the phone . . . on our wedding day, no less.

I wasn’t about to go down that road again—love, marriage, forever. I had enough on my plate serving as deputy general counsel of our family business and keeping my matchmaking parents off my back.

Then Wayland Ramirez comes roaring back into my life.

The boy who asked me to be his girlfriend in middle school. The man I shared a sizzling night of passion with five years ago. The man who made me trust him . . . then disappeared.

This time, I know better than to put my heart in anyone’s hands.

But when Dad throws down an ultimatum—bring a date to the office Christmas party or meet a stranger of his choosing—I spontaneously ask Wayland to play the part of my doting fake-boyfriend for a night.

He just wasn’t supposed to give an Oscar-winning performance.

Once more, his whispered words, his searing kisses, his body against mine almost have me believing that this could last. Almost.

I say love is a sham, a reservoir that depletes with time.

He says he wants it all—my todays and tomorrows.

But can I trust him with my tomorrows? Can I trust him to pick me up if I fall?

Because God knows, I am falling for this man.

EXCERPT

My face heats as I think about my admission, and I turn in his arms to face him. He’s still wearing his long white shirt and his other arm is under my neck. He’s been holding me like this all night. My eyes drift over his gorgeous face. His high cheekbones and square jaw with its delicious stubble makes me want to drag my tongue across it. I almost wish I was still high. I would have made good on that desire.

A thick fan of dark lashes rests on his golden-toned cheeks and his deep-pink lips are slightly parted, making his bottom lip look even plumper than usual. It’s not fair that he’s so breathtaking. My demigod. My beautiful warrior.

My eyes slip down to the smooth skin of his neck. There’s something I find so incredibly sexy about a wide, masculine neck, especially where the stubble ends and the smooth skin begins. Skin that reaches to the back of his ears; soft earlobes that I want in between my teeth.

I seriously have a thing for his ears.

I don’t think. Thinking seems overrated at this point. I’ve thought enough. I’ve been in my own way long enough. It’s time that I act.

Skating my fingers over the side of his head, I lean in and put my lips on his big, soft mouth. His eyes flutter open and I find myself in a locked gaze with him. He doesn’t move. Either he’s still processing what’s happening or he’s waiting to see what I’ll do next.

His eyes watch me intently as I slide my tongue over his lips and exhale softly. My chest presses against his and a wave of scorching heat runs through my body, collecting in a pool inside my panties. A need I’ve ignored for far too long pulsates inside of them. I suck his bottom lip into my mouth and my eyes shut on their own accord. My hands cup his face and I deepen the kiss, moaning with desire. Wayland stiffens—his erection is like a stone against my hip.

When I open my eyes, time stands still—every breath, every movement, every thought hangs suspended in midair. We search each other's eyes momentarily before I’m slammed down on my back with him hovering over me.

My heart jostles as hungry, animalistic eyes threaten to devour me. Wayland’s jaw clenches as the same gray eyes ignite like hot charcoal, burning over my skin. “You’re playing with fire, little bird.”

I shudder a small breath as my core tightens painfully in anticipation. “What’s a little arson when I’ve already been set ablaze?”

My hands tremble at the hem of his shirt before slowly gliding up the side of his torso, against the scar on his side. Dear God, has he formed new muscles in the past five years? Sliding them up over his smooth back, I dig my fingernails into his taut skin. His hips push against my damp center in response, and he growls, glaring down at me. “This isn’t a roundtrip ticket, so you better be real sure you want to hop on board.”

I open my legs in response—like an offering to the fire—letting his hard length settle between us.

I’m only wearing a tank top and thin pajama pants, and I have no doubt I’m soaking through them right now. Reaching for his lips again, I press my mouth against his, kissing him gently. “Just the one-way, please.”

He takes my mouth roughly, deepening our kiss. His rock-hard arousal slides between my legs as his tongue hunts for mine. I open further and his tongue dives in, working against mine. His hand slides into my tank and the heat of his palm sears my belly. “Fuck. I’ve missed this skin,” he growls, cupping my breast, sliding his thumb over my hard nipple. I moan, jerking my hips up to find the friction against him.

His mouth continues to work against mine. He bites my bottom lip, pulling it, as his fingers pinch my nipple hard. I yelp into his mouth and he swallows the sound, forcing his tongue in deeper. Goosebumps ignite across my skin and I’m so wet, I’m risking an orgasm simply from the friction alone. “Wayland . . ..”






AUTHOR BIO


I prefer to call myself a storyteller rather than an author. I'm a mom to two beautiful little girls and a wife to an incredibly supportive husband. My days start with caffeine and sometimes end with a glass (or three) of wine. 

I'm a Texas raised Indian American currently living in the Bay Area. With a degree in Computer Science and an MBA, I've had a successful career building software products but writing is both my hobby and my passion. 

For me, writing and reading are an escape from real life. I love meeting and creating characters who I'd love to take out for a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. My goal as a storyteller is to distract my readers from their daily grind with stories about everyday couples finding and fighting for incredible love with the help of a little luck.
