RELEASE BLITZ: Turning the Page by Jean Marie




Title: Turning the Page
Series: Carraway Falls #1
Author: Jean Marie
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 21, 2021


BLURB

You know what they say about best-laid plans…

After eight years away from home, my plans have been blown out of the water and I’m right back where I started. Carraway Falls. I never wanted to return to my small town life but I also didn’t plan to get laid off.

So here I am. Trying to figure out what’s next. Picking up the pieces isn’t easy but at least I’ve got the safety of my best friend’s couch to land.

Oh and did I mention my childhood friend/crush is still around. And he’s a ridiculously hot firefighter. Yeah, I don’t have time for that kind of distraction. I’m on a mission to rewrite my story and nothing’s going to get in the way.

I mean it. Nope. I’m trying to dust off and make some new plans. Jack Fuller’s sexy smile won’t veer me off course. Not even if a second chance at…whatever we had in the past is enticing.

Turning the Page is a full length, standalone small town novel. It is the first book in the Carraway Falls series.

EXCERPT

Lily doesn’t reply. Doesn’t say another word. She just leans in, tilting her head to one side, and kisses me. Slowly. Her lips brush against mine so lightly that I barely register it. But my body does. The moment her lips touch mine, my body ignites. She’s the match, and I’m the TNT.
And holy shit.
Fireworks.
The second I lean in to deepen the kiss, to pull her even closer, it ends. Far too soon, Lily pulls away, right out of my arms. The next thing I know, she’s got the passenger door open and is standing outside looking into the cab.
“I think I can do slow.” She regards me with a smirk. “I look forward to date two, Jack. Good night.” She blows me a kiss with her mitten-clad hand and closes the door on me without waiting for a response.
I drop my head back against the headrest and blow out a breath that actually comes out more like a groan. I’m in so much trouble with this woman. On the drive home, I’m no longer trying to convince myself that going slow is the right thing to do. No. My mind is firmly focused on the very cold shower I’ll be taking when I get home.
Fuck.

RELEASE BLITZ: The Faker by Gina Azzi




Title: The Faker
Series: Boston Hawks Hockey #3
Author: Gina Azzi
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance
Release Date: April 21, 2021


BLURB

NHL hotshot Torsten Hansen is a lot of things. My husband shouldn't be one of them.

One emotional night slinging tequila shots and singing karaoke with the Hawks defenseman turns into more than I bargained for. A wicked hangover, an eviction notice, and a marriage proposal.

If Torsten and I wed, he can fulfill a promise to his grandmother and the debt I'm drowning in will be paid by his trust fund. It's a win-win, an easy and straightforward arrangement between friends.

So what if my friend has piercing blue eyes, a sensual smirk, and a body that occupies my dreams? It shouldn't matter that Torsten understands my past and makes me feel safe.

Except it does. Because if I give my heart to my husband, how will I survive our eventual divorce?

EXCERPT

I walk beside her, wondering if I’ve lost my damn mind.
What the hell was I thinking? Did I seriously just propose marriage to a woman I’ve spent a total of fifteen hours with, in group settings, over blueberry pancakes?
Yes, yes I did.
We’re quiet as we walk, both of us lost in our thoughts. Except mine swing from angry to needy to frustrated. I hate that Rielle questioned our friendship, as if I don’t give a shit about her. I know we aren’t close and don’t really know each other but does she seriously think I treat her the same way I treat puck bunnies? Her accusation stung and it shouldn’t have because it’s the perception I’ve spent years cultivating.
I just don’t like that it worked on her.
Then, there’s the fact that she’s obviously in some kind of trouble. Four hundred and seventy thousand dollars? Really? That’s not normal credit card or student loan debt. That’s serious, life-altering, damaging debt. Is someone trying to shake her down? Is that why she has bruises on her arm?
Jesus. I scrape a hand over my face, glancing at Rielle from the corner of my eye. She keeps her head straight ahead, her footsteps even, her shoulders pulled back. I couldn’t get a read on her if I was a fucking mind reader.
But marriage? No, I didn’t propose marriage. I proposed something different. A transaction. And she knows it.

RELEASE BLITZ: Jagged Line Paradise by Brynn Ford




Title: Jagged Line Paradise
Author: Brynn Ford
Genre: Contemporary Romance with
Dark Elements
Release Date: April 15, 2021


BLURB

I left our hometown—a place she once called paradise—when we were just a couple of dirt poor teenagers. I left to flee the aftermath of a horrifying event that completely broke us. And now, ten years later, I'm going back to face the wreckage that I thought I'd put behind me—my father's gruesome legacy, the trauma of our past, and the girl who survived it all without me by her side.

She hates me now for leaving her behind and I don't blame her.
I don't blame her, but I want her.
I want her, even though I know I should stay away from her.

I could be dangerous.
I am my father's son, after all.

Content Warning: This book contains brief scenes of violence and is premised around a theme of trauma and healing. Some parts may be triggering to some readers—discretion is advised.

EXCERPT

"What did you wish for?" he asks, picking the candle from the cupcake and licking the frosting off the end.

I'm momentarily distracted by the way he sucks the end of it into his mouth. My heart skips a beat and butterflies flap their wings like crazy as my mind drifts. I shouldn't be thinking about my best friend's tongue licking frosting off things…and places.

I shake my head and take the cupcake from his hand, working to peel the wrapper off as I turn forward to look at the mountain sunset. "You know I can't tell you that. Then it won't come true."

He moves to sit beside me, hip to hip, with our legs dangling over the edge. He sets the candle down on the dirt beside him and pulls the hood of his sweatshirt up before shoving his hands into the pockets. I don't know why he wears hoodies in the summer—it's scorching hot until nightfall—but it's kind of a signature look for him.

"But if you tell me what you wished for," he says, "then I could make it come true."

"Really?" I lick blue frosting off my finger before I set the cupcake wrapper beside me. "What if I wished for a million dollars?"

"Then I'd get it for you."

"How?"

He chuckles. "I don't know. But I'd figure it out if that's what you wanted."

I swallow hard though I haven't even taken a bite of the cake yet. "You really have to stop being so nice to me." I take a dramatically large bite of mostly frosting and say the next part with a full mouth and good humor. "You're gonna spoil me."

Andrés nudges his shoulder against mine. "You can't spoil someone who's already spoiled, brat."

The way he calls me brat makes my spine tingle and I don't know why. I'm glad the sun is falling behind the mountain line and darkness creeps in to hide my flushed cheeks.

"Did you make this?" I ask, glancing over at him to find him watching me, his eyes on my mouth as my tongue swipes frosting from my bottom lip.

His eyes lift to meet mine and he smiles. "I did. Are you impressed?"

"I am. You wanna bite?" I hold out the remaining half of the cupcake in offering.

His thick, dark eyebrows knit together as he looks at it. "Yeah. Sure." He leans in and takes a bite from the side at a strange angle and his lips brush against the top of my finger.

It makes me flinch, but not in a bad way. It's because of the way my stomach tightens at his touch. Touch isn't foreign between us, it's always been there—hugs and side jabs and the occasional playful wrestle. It's just that things have felt different lately.

Good different.

Scary different.

AUTHOR BIO


K.L. Savage decided they were tired of looking for the kind of books they wanted to read. They had an itch that needed to be scratched, and as every girl knows, nothing scratches better than an alpha.

They write about gritty, alpha males, sometimes their dark sides, and the women they love.

If you have the same itch, their alpha males should fix that.

EXCERPT

“Ooh, if it isn’t the princess herself.” I look up from where I’m sitting in the VIP section to see a tall, dark and decidedly unhandsome man in front of me.

Looking around, I see my PPOs are stationed off to the side. Close enough in case there is a problem, but just far enough away to give me the illusion of freedom.

“Looking for your Prince Charming? He’s right here.” He waves his hands over himself before taking the seat right next to me. He smells of cheap cologne and bad vodka.

“I’ll be sure to let you know if I find said Prince Charming.” I slowly sip my drink, showing as little interest as possible. Usually the whole princess thing is enough to scare any potential love interests off, but this man has a cocky air about him. They have no interest in me as a person. They only want to say they spent the night with the princess.

“Ouch. Right through the heart.” His calculated gaze peruses over my dark, form-fitting jeans and off the shoulder top. “Let me buy you a drink, then I can show you what a real Prince Charming I can be.”
