New Release & Review: Promised Love by Vikki Jay


Promised Love by Vikki Jay is now live!


Getting stuck sharing a honeymoon suite with a hot, ex-NAVY Seal sounds like it should be a good time. Except Lukas is my husband and we haven't spoken in years. 

Until today, we were living separate lives, waiting to get out of this arranged marriage. But my family's meddling has pushed us together. And now he's here filling out his t-shirt just a little too well and staring at me just a little too intensely.

Don't even get me started on the cleft on his chin that pops up every time he smiles. The man has temptation written all over him.
We manage to stay out of each other's way–mostly. Until the tension boils over one night in a car.
I straddle his lap. I press my lips to his. I feel his body against mine. And that one hot moment has me offering something I never thought I would.

What happens in the honeymoon suite, stays in the honeymoon suite. 

But what Lukas and I share in that room is so much more than just physical. With every kiss, every caress, every touch, I start forgetting our reality, and wonder if we've got it all wrong.
We planned our divorce four years ago. But what if our plans have changed?

My Review:
Promised LovePromised Love by Vikki Jay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What an unexpected and wonderful romance. Autumn and Lukas find themselves married because of a family promise. The plan is to fulfill the promise for Autumn’s grandfather and then have an annulment. Well, 5 years have passed and suddenly Autumn is called to Lukas’ bedside after he’s been shot. Even though they haven’t lived together as husband and wife, they had been exchanging emails and building a solid friendship. Now they find themselves sharing a suite as Lukas recuperates. Will they realize that love is possible? Lukas is very hesitant to allow love in his life since everyone he’s loved has left him. Autumn is trying to show her family she can take over the family business. I really loved how they had built a solid friendship as pen pals which they were able to build on as they navigate their new situation with Autumn’s family. Lukas is a fabulous supporter for Autumn without being overbearing. I enjoyed all the nuances to their journey. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

Meet Vikki Jay


In those early morning hours when I'm alone, my imaginations run wild and I pen down the life of people living in my head. All my life, I have lived in small towns in different parts of the world. The friendships, the camaraderie that people share around me inspired me to create Cherrywood and St. Peppers, the two towns where all my stories take place.

I write about beautiful coincidences, finding love in unexpected places and times, and fighting hard to get that happily ever after.

I reject to read, see, write anything that does not promise a HEA. My characters are sexy yet shy, strong yet reserved...

I am married to a man whom I fell in love at an age of 15, proposed him at an age of 23 and married at an age of 30. He has no clue what I write or do when he is snoring quietly in the next room.

New Release: This Woman by Jodi Ellen Malpas

This Woman by Jodi Ellen Malpas is now live!

Jesse Ward has stumbled through life drinking and indulging himself within the rooms of his high-class sex club, The Manor, numbing himself to the pain, grief, and guilt of his wrongs. Pleasure and alcohol are his medicine. Hedonism is all he knows.

It's how he copes.

How he survives.

Until Ava O'Shea strolls into his office and knocks him back with her breathtaking beauty, ambition, and drive. It only takes one look into her eyes, one touch of her skin, and one word murmured, before his heart is kick-started, offering him something he never thought possible. A distraction from his daily torment. A semblance of peace.

Women never reject Jesse Ward. They fall at his feet, melt from his charismatic, devious smile, and obey his every salacious command. All except the one woman who unwittingly becomes his obsession and the only thing that can keep him from the brink of self-destruction.

He needs Ava and will do anything to have her.

Even hide every last skeleton in his large closet.

Because the truth could destroy them both.

Cover Reveal: Love Me Forever by Layla Hagen

Release Date: December 2


A surprise baby romance from USA Today bestselling author Layla Hagen

“Have dinner with me.”
Four words. That was all Travis Maxwell needed to charm me, even though I’d just met him. In my defense, we were kind of stuck together, and he was the hottest man I’d laid eyes on. We spent a glorious week together, knowing we'd go our separate ways in the end.

Then two blue lines turn my life upside down. I'm pregnant.
Travis and I agree to be friends—nothing more—and to focus on raising our child.
Easier said than done.
Travis transforms from a master flirt to a caveman, intent on protecting me and our unborn baby. He spoils me and tends to all my cravings, including supplying my favorite cupcakes on demand and watching Netflix with me.
As we bicker about which season of Bridgerton is better, he suddenly tells me that he wants me.
That he needs me.
And I need him too.
But I want him to want me for me, not just because of the baby. Travis doesn’t want to settle down. He told me as much when we met. I fear he's mixing up his feelings, and I don't think that's the right recipe for forever…

Cover Reveal: Playing Hard to Get by Monica Murphy

 

Monica Murphy has revealed the gorgeous cover for Playing Hard to Get!

Releasing: December 1, 2022

Cover Design: Emily Wittig Designs 

Knox Maguire is the king of our college campus.

Star offensive tight end on the football team.

He is the complete opposite of me in every way.

I'm quiet. He's loud.

I'm shy. He's definitely not.

Everyone loves him. No one knows me.

Fresh out of a breakup, I don't really trust him, and why should I? Knox is the ultimate player. When I become his English tutor, I tell myself we need to keep things between us strictly business. Watching my mother deal with my ex-athlete father long, long ago taught me to stay far away from that type of man.

Yet Knox is impossible to resist. Next thing I know, we're getting hot and heavy in the library—and that was never part of the plan. When Knox admits he can't stop thinking about me, I have a realization.

I can't stop thinking about him either.

Instead of keeping my distance, I pull him in closer. Until somehow, we're spending all of our time together and I find myself falling for Knox. Hard.

Will this actually work between us? Or am I getting played?

My Review: 
Second Chance Mine (Second Chance, #6)Second Chance Mine by M. Robinson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Adrian and Paige carry a lot of history and hurt feelings. When they end up working together 10 years later, Adrian pulls out all the overbearing and controlling actions he has to convince Paige that he deserves a second chance. To make it even crazier, Paige has a stalker and as these two work on repairing their relationship, the stalker gets more aggressive. One of their biggest challenges comes from Cade, Adrian’s brother and Paige’s former best friend, and everyone not wanting to let him down. There is a lot to keep you interested in this story but for me, I felt like I had read this story before from this author. I was also frustrated by the lack of editing, almost as if this story was rushed to be released which let me down.

Meet M. Robinson

Release Blitz: More Than Desire You by Shayla Black

More Than Desire You by Shayla Black is now live!

I seduced her for revenge...but I won't let up until she's mine

I'm Xavian Costa—financial genius, maverick, and heartbreaker. Since my dad ran out before I was born and my best friend slept with the woman I intended to marry, I don't get close to people. It's fine. That leaves me more time for what I'm best at: making money. But Parker, who poached my ex, is now a mega bestselling author with movie deals, and he's modeled his number one villain after me. I want revenge. I'm just looking for the perfect vehicle.

Then the sexiest brunette I've ever seen literally falls at my feet. Best of all, she's my former pal's innocent little sister, all grown up, and she needs a fake fiancé. I'm happy to help—for a price.

We begin our whirlwind "engagement," and I get to know Corinne, not as the gawky fourteen-year-old I remember, but as a beautiful woman. She's snarky, sassy, and smart as hell. I admire the serious way she attacks life. I like her ambition to do something besides inherit. And I love the way she moans when I take her to bed. But soon, I'm falling for her and questioning my plans to stab Parker in the back by breaking his little sister's heart. And when my dirty laundry gets aired for everyone—including Corinne—I have to prove that I'll put her first. She has no idea I feel more than desire for her, but I'll show her until she says yes for good.

My Review:
More Than Desire You (Reed Family Reckoning, #8)More Than Desire You by Shayla Black
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Xavian is shocked when Corinne reaches out for his help with her business. She is the sister of his nemesis, Parker, who wrote a book about him which is now becoming a movie. He is more surprised that Parker isn’t willing to support his sister as she makes her passion a success. Getting revenge on Parker by working with Corinne is too hard to pass up. As Xavian introduces Corinne to his family, she finds a supportive environment that she’s never had from her own family. As Xavian gets to know Corinne, will he find that revenge is really what he wants? Or will he realize love is possible for him to have like his brothers? The passion and drama are always compelling with the Reed family which this story delivered.
