RELEASE BLITZ: Neighbors With Benefits by Isabel Jordan

THE 'BURBS HAVE NEVER BEEN SO HOT
Neighbors With Benefits by Isabel Jordan is live!

Universal: https://geni.us/IJNeighbors
Read it #free with your #kindleunlimited subscription.

BLURB:
The enemy of the HOA is her friend…and maybe much, much more…

Ridley Lennox is not having a good day.

Her high school nemesis becoming president of the Homeowner’s Association and trying to ruin her life is bad enough. But when Satan himself moves in next door, everything really starts circling the drain.

Finn Doyle is a menace. The fact that he’s the most gratuitously sexy, extroverted jerk she’s ever laid eyes on is irrelevant. His unneighborly actions make him her sworn enemy.

Which makes it super weird when he joins her war against the HOA.

That’s when everything gets…wacky.

Because somewhere along the line, Ridley, born introvert and known advocate of commitment avoidance, becomes friends with Finn.

And, to her complete disbelief, he seems to want out of the friendzone and into an infinitely more…hands-on relationship.

The wild part? She’s starting to think about it, too. Neighbors with benefits is a thing, right?

Maybe. But only if neither of them does anything stupid…like falling in love.

Neighbors With Benefits (a contemporary romantic comedy) is book 1 in the Love in the Burbs series. It's a light, hilarious, comfort read featuring small town/suburbs hijinks, meddling septuagenarians, copious pop culture references and casual cussing, and tons of witty, snarky banter. Like, TONS. Told in the 3rd person with dual points of view, it has a guaranteed happily ever after. Download today and happy reading!

BLOG TOUR: The Doctor's Daughter by Shari J. Ryan

THE DOCTOR'S DAUGHTER

by Shari J. Ryan

Blog Tour

Release Date: April 28, 2022

Genre: Historical Fiction
Trope: World War II

Synopsis

Auschwitz, 1941: It was her father’s job to save the lives of the SS. But she chose to risk everything and save the lives of prisoners.

In Nazi-occupied Poland, Sofia cannot look her father in the eye. Sofia’s mother, her papa’s cherished wife, is Jewish—how dare he work as a doctor for the SS? She cannot forgive him, even if the bargain was made to spare their lives.

In the middle of the night, Isaac emerges from a packed train with hundreds of others. Beneath Auschwitz’s barbed wire, soldiers surround them, and gunshots pierce the dark sky. The SS decide prisoners’ fates on the spot—and Isaac is chosen to work, rather than to die.

Every day, Isaac and his fellow inmates are sent to a nearby farm. From sunup to sundown, they toil the land with barely a scrap to eat. Every breath feels like it could be Isaac’s last, so when he sees a beautiful auburn-haired girl peering out of the farmhouse window, it feels like a dream…

Sofia refuses to accept what she is seeing. Disobeying her father and evading the guards, she risks her life to sneak a letter to the green-eyed boy outside. She explains that she has hidden them food, and that she’ll do everything in her power to save them.

This secret exchange sparks an escape that should have been impossible—and a love story that is unforgettable. But is love enough in the face of evil? And when Sofia and Isaac are concealed underground, holding their breath as the Nazis hunt them, will they survive?


Fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Choice, and Orphan Train will be utterly gripped by this heartbreaking and unputdownable tale. This tear-jerking page-turner shows that even if your freedom has been robbed, and your loved ones torn from you, nobody can steal your hope…

RELEASE BLITZ: Taken by Maddie Taylor

HOT NEW CYBORG ROMANCE
If you love sci-fi romance, make sure you get Taken by Maddie Taylor and Morganna Williams!

Universal: https://geni.us/TakenCL
It's #FREE with a #KindleUnlimited subscription!

BLURB:
Stranded at the edge of the galaxy, and forgotten by Earth in the wake of tragedy, the small group of survivors on Walker Colony turn to their founder's granddaughter to lead them. With dwindling supplies and an abundance of failing equipment, Shayla keeps the life support systems running with little more than her wits and duct tape as they wait for a ship that may never come.

Built to be faster, larger, and more powerful than human men, cyborgs are the perfect killing machines. The only mistake their creators made was giving them the ability to think and learn. Although fearsome and formidable, they are also enlightened and conscious of their human emotions. They rebel against their programming, escape their enslavement on Earth, and begin their search for a safe place to live in peace.

When the cyborgs discover the abandoned humans on Walker Colony, hope is renewed. The twelve surviving women are in desperate need of supplies and support, while the cyborgs require just a small sample of human female DNA to begin the process of ensuring the survival of their race. To protect the humans, the imposing cyborg captain decrees all women are hands off. Yet, once Freeman sees the fiery-haired Shayla, the powerful leader is on the verge of breaking his own rules.

As she learns more about the cyborgs' heart-wrenching story, Shayla agrees to help. Convincing the other survivors to join her won’t be easy. With the colony crumbling around them, a deal is struck, but a malevolent force is bearing down on them as secrets and betrayals jeopardize their mission. Will the threat result in tragedy for the colonists, or will Free and his cyborgs come to their defense, risking their hard-fought freedom in the process?

About The Authors:

If there was romance to be found between a strong alpha male, and a sassy, adventurous and ofttimes defiant yet loving woman, Maddie was all over it. As an author, she stays true to those themes writing steamy erotic romance, with a side of kink, and adding elements of intrigue, danger and suspense to her plots.

Maddie started writing as a hobby. Her stories stayed private while she raised a family and worked full time as a registered nurse. It wasn't until 2012 that she decided to take the plunge and submit her first book for publication: Captain My Captain. She went on to publish eleven novels the first year.

Morganna Williams is a USA Today Best Selling Author and Internationally Best Selling Author on Amazon in BDSM, Sci-fi Erotica, Humorous Erotica, Medical Romance, Romantic Suspense and Erotic Romance.

A fresh start is finally in view for Arden Winters after escaping an abusive relationship, but settling in a new town, with a new job, and a two-year-old son has its fair share of obstacles. When her car throws a fit on the way to work and dies in the parking lot, her manager offers a solution—in the form of a broad-shouldered hunk who just happens to be in the restaurant having a couple of drinks with his boss. 

Dash Hardt gave up on love years ago, but with one look at Arden, the shadows of his past shrink away. He begins to wonder if there’s something to this “boom” his bosses have always gabbed about but cracking away the chip on Arden’s shoulder that seems to weigh more than the crappy car she’s driving won’t be easy.

Can he win her trust before the threat of her ex sends her running to another state—again?

Until Arden is part of the Aurora Rose Reynolds' Happily Ever Alpha World. If you loved Until Talon and Until Jax, then you will want to read Until Arden.

EXCERPT

“Oh my gosh. Sorry I’m late.”

I looked over my shoulder to find a red-faced and wild-haired Roxy come blowing into my office. In a blur, she dumped her backpack and coat on a corner chair, and set up her laptop on a flimsy little table I’d pulled out of storage.

“Don’t worry about it, darlin’.”

I hoped my voice wasn’t tight. It wasn’t that it was a problem for her to arrive late. She’d texted me that her last class went over time. What I was preoccupied with, but desperate to keep to myself, was the building tension around will she or won’t she?

Yeah. I couldn’t lie. Her self-imposed ‘trial period’ was killing me, and I was so enjoying having her around—for a variety of reasons—I found myself really hoping she’d stay.

Of course, it was completely her choice, and I’d support whatever direction she wanted to go in. But I knew what I wanted. I knew what the guys wanted.

Shit, we’d discussed it late into the night when she was asleep.

It was cool we were all attracted to her. It made sense. We were good friends, and valued similar things. I never thought I might be sharing a woman with these guys, but after I’d gotten used to the idea, I’d realized it was hot as fuck.

Catching her breath, she turned to me from her makeshift work area. “Should I continue on the presentation for next week’s class? Or do you need me to do something else?”

Something else…

Get a grip asshole.

“The presentation would be great. Thank you,” I said, turning back to my own computer before I lost the battle to keep my thoughts clean and my hands to myself.

There she was, a regular college girl. But she was so much more than that. I loved her drive, and her ability, most of the time, to keep her chin up in the face of all that was raining down around her.

She was going to be fine. I knew she would. Things would turn a corner for her, one way or the other.

Despite my best intentions, I peeked at her anyway, watching her peck away at her keyboard, because I was such a goddamn smitten pussy. Her blonde hair nearly covered her pretty face, and her foot tapped with her overload of energy. She stopped what she was doing for a moment, and drew a finger to mouth, where she chewed on a nail. Then, in a new burst of energy, she got back to the keyboard, working like an artist struck by inspiration.

I had to say I was impressed. It was hard to get excited about making a presentation for a finance class. But Roxy was finding a way.

It was that ‘light’ that followed her, which attracted me like a moth to a flame.

I knew the other guys felt the same.

I was so fucked. We were so fucked.

AUTHOR BIO

I’m contemporary romance author Mika Lane, and am all about bringing you sexy, sassy stories with imperfect heroines and the bad-a*s dudes they bring to their knees. And I have a special love for romance with multiple guys because why should we have to settle for just one hunky man?

Please join my Insider Group and be the first to hear about giveaways, sales, pre-orders, ARCs, and most importantly, a free sexy short story: http://mikalane.com/join-mailing-list/.

Writing has been a passion of mine since, well, forever (my first book was The Day I Ate the Milkyway, a true fourth-grade masterpiece). These days, steamy romance, both dark and funny, gives purpose to my days and nights as I create worlds and characters who defy the imagination. I live in magical Northern California with my own handsome alpha dude, sometimes known as Mr. Mika Lane, and two devilish cats named Chuck and Murray. These three males also defy my imagination from time to time.

A lover of shiny things, I've been known to try new recipes on unsuspecting friends, find hiding places so I can read undisturbed, and spend my last dollar on a plane ticket somewhere.

Check out my latest series, Study Hard, about hot professors and the sexy college co-eds who give them a run for their money.

I'll always promise you a hot, sexy romp with kick-ass but imperfect heroines, and some version of a modern-day happily ever after.

RELEASE BLITZ: Meet Me at Midnight by Melissa Toppen




Title: Meet Me at Midnight
Author: Melissa Toppen
Genre: Friends to Lovers Romance
Release Date: April 29, 2022


BLURB

Meet me at midnight- whispered words from drunken lips.
Lips that I had spent years wanting to kiss.
Lips that I had dreamt about night after night, waking to wonder what if.
What if he noticed me?
What if he wanted me?
What if…
But I quickly learned some things are better left to wonder.
Especially where Levi Mills is concerned.
He didn’t just steal my innocence that night.
He broke every part of me.
Dismantled me from the inside out until there was nothing left of the girl I used to be.
Years passed. Moments faded into the background. Until eventually he became nothing more than a distant memory- a dream that almost didn’t seem real.
But then suddenly he’s there, standing in front of me again like he never left. And in that one heartbeat, in that one breath, I relive it all over again. Every touch. Every word. Like frozen snippets of time suspended in front of my eyes.
And then he smiles that all too familiar smile, meet me at midnight moving soundlessly across his lips.
