TWH Synopsis

“Not everyone you love is going to leave you…but what if they do?”

For Nate Lucas, this was his reality.

When he lost her, he was left with no choice. Life was impossible in Crawley without her. He couldn’t live with all of the memories or her ghost.

He vowed to never return again.

It was business that brought him back and the chance to right a wrong, but then she needed him; his best friend’s little sister. Her life and her child’s were in danger.

It was an arrangement until it became more.

He vowed to never love again; to never allow the past a chance to repeat itself, but sometimes you’re left with no choice.

When the walls around your heart are finally breached, do you run and save yourself or stay and fight for the chance to love again?

When you lose your way, how do you find the way home?

**The Way Home is an Interconnected Standalone in The Chasing Series. Each book features a different couple.**

The Way Home Teaser #1

TWH Excerpt

We’d spent Sunday celebrating with her family never even managing to have a moment alone until the end of the night when she’d walked me out to my truck to say goodnight. The sky had been splattered with stars, thousands of them piercing the darkness above us. The tiny pinpoints of light were not nearly as captivating as Natalie; nothing was. We walked with her tucked against my side, gazing up at the sky. Her face had been radiant as she pointed out the constellations. In her excitement, she’d stumbled, dragging my attention away from Orion’s Belt and back to her. I’d only looked away because she’d insisted. I’d much rather have looked at her. I’d gripped her close. Both of us laughing. I could still recall the expression on her face. Her smile had shined brighter than any star I had ever seen.

The promise ring I’d saved six months for had been sitting proudly on the fourth finger of her dainty left hand. My birthday gift to her, and I hadn’t given two shits if her parents had liked it or not. Natalie was mine. She’d smiled at me, peeking up shyly through her lashes before sliding her hands into my hair and tugging my head closer to hers. My girl had loved to tease me. So in tune, I’d known exactly what she’d wanted and had fitted my mouth against hers while pulling her body close to mine. She’d fit me perfect.

That had been our last kiss. Thinking back on that day, I’d wished I’d held her a little tighter and had kissed her a little longer. Instead, I’d taken it all for granted; thinking we’d have tomorrow, our whole lives ahead of us. I wished I’d taken the opportunity to memorize every single fucking detail no matter how small. Now, my last memory of her was measured in a single moment in time, and selfishly, I wanted every second, every minute, and every hour of it back just to spend it with her all over again.

As the president of the Sin City Outlaw Motorcycle Club, l fuck as hard as I ride and rarely go to bed alone.

The women are fast and the violence is intense.

I excel in both.

People either respect me or fear me. I’m not arrogant. It’s just the truth.

I was a king, reigning over Vegas without complication, until one gorgeous sheriff made everything fall apart.

When I saw her, I became a Neanderthal, wanting nothing more than to be between those legs.

I guess that’s where I went wrong, because my reality was shot to hell real

fucking fast.

One kiss caused her to step over that blue line.

One night in her bed made me a traitor.

And now… we’re both screwed.

It’s all in the luck of the ball…

Hosted by: Book Enthusiast Promotions

book blurb

Lieutenant John Sullivan of the U.S. Navy SEALs is used to control in all things and especially when it comes to love. He has one rule.

DO. NOT. GO. THERE.

A recent mission gone wrong sees him seeking refuge at his cabin in the Adirondack wilderness, a place where he goes to deal with the things he has to do as part of his job.

Dr. Maggie O’Brien, Senior Trauma Surgeon at Hillview hospital, New York is dedicated to saving the lives of her patients, leaving her little time for anything resembling a personal life.

When it comes to love she has one belief.

NO. TIME. FOR. THAT.

A work related crisis sees her fleeing New York for the seclusion of the Adirondacks where her burnt-out body and weary soul crave solitude .

The last thing John Sullivan wants whilst he tries to deal with the emotional aftermath of his last mission is the distraction of a fiery red-head with curves that would tempt a saint.

The last thing Maggie O’Brien wants as she finally takes some time to examine her life is to deal with her body’s unwanted response to the bossy, over-bearing man who rescued her in the woods and who drives her crazy in every way.

Soon, though, each realizes the other may not be what they want but what they need.

However, ghosts from the past and shocking events from the present shake John to his core and lead him to make a fateful decision that may just cause him to lose the woman he loves, forever.

excerpt

“What the hell?” she exclaimed, “who the hell are you and why are you licking my leg?

A soft chuckle was all she got in reply and another lick accompanied by what seemed like a sniff.

Oh just my luck, Maggie thought to herself, I’m stuck in the middle of nowhere with car trouble and a lick-freak.

“Okay mister,” she announced, “you lick my leg one more time and I’ll come out from underneath this car and split your head open with this tire iron.”

Her bravado was rewarded with a laugh this time and annoyance flashed through her. The fact she didn’t have a tire iron or that the guy could be standing there with a gun, hence his laughter, didn’t occur to her as she wriggled furiously out from underneath the car. A trickle of fear did, however, wind its way down her spine as her eyes fell on one of the biggest men she had ever seen. Beside him sat what she now guessed was the source of the licks.

Never Too Late by Sloan Johnson Blog Tour and Giveaway

Title: Never Too Late

Series: Home in the Heartland #1

Author: Sloan Johnson

Genre: Adult, M/M Romance

Published: March 7, 2016

Dax: My life ended six years ago. No, really. I was dead on the side of the road following a gruesome motorcycle accident. From what I’ve been told, it’s only because of one stubborn man that I have another chance to make something of my life. I no longer hate him for screwing up what I thought I wanted. I want to thank him. NEED to tell him what his actions mean to me.

Now, I’m headed back to the town I’ve never set foot in even though it’s a huge part of my life. I’m not thrilled about that, but the job offers haven’t exactly been flowing in. They’ll probably think I’m crazy, because there’s no way I won’t be able to look at every guy I walk past, wondering if he’s the one who saved me.

Michael: My entire life, I wanted to save lives. I’d earned a full-ride scholarship and had been accepted to med schools across the country. I was so close to making those dreams a reality until the night held a dying man in my arms. I’ve never been able to get the images of his lifeless body caked in mud out of my head. Even when the paramedics tried to take over trying to save him, I couldn’t let go. I never let go. Eventually, my guilt over not doing more cost me everything but my son. And now, I worry I’ll lose him if I don’t get it together.

I’ve often thought that if I could find him, maybe I could get some closure and finally get my life back on track. Now he’s here and I’m more of a mess than ever. Once the truth comes out, will he keep trying to save me or will he realize that it’s too late?

 

Sloan Johnson is a big city girl trapped in a country girl’s life. While she longs for the hustle and bustle of New York City or Las Vegas, she hasn’t yet figured out how to sit on the deck with her morning coffee, watching the deer and wild turkeys in the fields while surrounded by concrete and glass.

When she was three, her parents received their first call from the principal asking them to pick her up from school. Apparently, if you aren’t enrolled, you can’t attend classes, even in Kindergarten. The next week, she was in preschool and started plotting her first story soon after.

Later in life, her parents needed to do something to help their socially awkward, uncoordinated child come out of her shell and figured there was no better place than a bar on Wednesday nights. It’s a good thing they did because this is where she found her love of reading and writing. Who needs socialization when you can sit alone in your bedroom with a good book?

Now, Sloan is a tattooed mom with a mohawk and two kids. She’s been kicked out of the PTA in two school districts and is no longer asked to help with fundraisers because she’s been known to lose herself with a good book and forget she has somewhere to be.

Hawke by Sawyer Bennett Review

854

4.5 Smooches

a4 a4-5 a4-4 a4-2 a5

Synopsis

The Carolina Cold Fury hockey team proves that love is a power play. As Sawyer Bennett’s New York Times bestselling series continues, the league’s most notorious party animal gets blindsided by the one that got away.

Off the ice, elite defenseman Hawke Therrien enjoys his fair share of booze and good times. And why shouldn’t he? He’s worked his way up from the minor leagues and made himself a star. The only thing Hawke misses from that life is the pierced, tattooed free spirit who broke his heart without so much as an explanation. She’s almost unrecognizable when she walks back into his life seven years later—except for the look in her eyes that feels like a punch to the gut.

Vale Campbell isn’t the same girl she was at twenty. As crazy as she was about Hawke, her reckless behavior and out-of-control drinking were starting to scare her. She had to clean up her act, and that would never happen with Hawke around. Cutting him loose was the hardest thing Vale ever had to do—until now. Because she’s still crazy about Hawke. And if he could ever learn to forgive her, they just might have a future together.

Review

‘It was a realization, maybe a recognition , of something that Hawke does to me that I believe no other man will ever do. I can’t name it. I can’t place it other than it resides deep within me.’

I have been reading and reviewing this series since the very beginning and some I have loved more than others but all have been good. I was slightly hesitant when going into Hawke because some early reviews were stating that while they liked it, they didn’t love it. You would think by now I would realize that each reader gets something different out of each book because while many loved Ryker and fell for his story Hawke is where it is at for me. This story might just be my absolute favorite in the series.

‘Vale may have changed into someone virtually unrecognizable to my old self, but this mouth . . . these lips . . . her taste. It’s all 100 percent the same, and a jolt of lust seizes me hard.’

Hawke and Vale’s story is one that spans many years and comes with a good does of heartache. I think that is why I loved it so much! The angst and hurt that grew from when they were teenagers deeply in love to adults thrown together working for the same organization. Vale killed hopes dreams of living a good life with the girl he loved when she dumped him right before he left to go play hockey. Years have past and both have made great aspirations in their careers and even moved on in their love lives but no one has ever made either feel like they did when they were teenagers in love. But now that they see each other daily they can’t keep trying to deny the hurt and the love that has been simmering since they parted. Secrets are revealed and the two try to become friends again but can they ever really just be friends?

‘For a blessed moment, I don’t question all the hurt between us. I simply hold her.’

The tension between these two really helped build the story and up the drama and I LOVED IT! While still being true to Sawyer’s sexy and fun style Hawke delivered a good does of heart and made me fall in love with these two characters. They were young, reckless and flawed and while the timing wasn’t right and events occurred that drove them away it was clear from the beginning that they belonged together and something about that kind of strong epic love just completely draws me in.

‘I kiss her to shut her up. I kiss her to keep her preoccupied. I kiss her because I’m dying to kiss her again, and it just seemed the right thing to do at the time.’

Hawke can be read as a continuation of the series or as a standalone and I for one highly recommend reading it whether you want to read all the Cold Fury Men or if you just want a good second chance love story. Don’t miss this one!

Drop Dead Sexy by Katie Ashley Release Blitz

DDS_LIVE_BANNER

dropdeadsexy1Synopsis:

For Olivia Sullivan, love is more a four letter curse word than a sentiment. Growing up as the daughter of a small town mortician, guys didn’t warm to the fact there were dead people in her house. At thirty, taking over the family business and becoming the town Coroner helped to cement her undateable status. Of course her past sex history didn’t help matters either.

Attempt number one with her first love ended barely before it got started with a horrific latex allergy hospitalization. Attempt number two had him coming and then going with an undiagnosed heart condition. For the past three years, Olivia has closed up shop for fear of what might happen next in the bedroom.

After being forced to go single to her mother’s lingerie shower, Olivia stumbles into an out of town bar with one intention: find an able bodied stud to go home with to end her losing sex streak. Enter Holden Caulfield Mains aka Catcher, who earned his nickname not just from the book he was named for, but for the fact he was sure to catch the attention any woman who came within a five mile radius. Waking up after a night of the most mind blowing sex she could have ever imagined, a horrified Olivia runs away thinking she’s left Catcher behind.

When Olivia’s small town is wracked by its first murder, she never could have imagined her one night stand would reappear in the form of the GBI’s lead investigator. To her mortification, Catcher isn’t ready to let go of their sizzling chemistry, and he doesn’t understand the meaning of no. As things start to heat up between them, the body count starts to rise, and they’re led on a wild goose chase from backwoods mountain Nudist Colonies to altercations with the Dixie Mafia. Can Olivia and Catcher survive to solve the murder while also not succumbing to their explosive passion?

Love, Chloe by Alessandra Torre Review

5 Smooches!

a4 a4-5 a4-4 a4-3 a4-2

Synopsis

From NYT Bestseller Alessandra Torre…
The sexy serial that exploded on Cosmopolitan.com is now a full-length, standalone novel.

Chloe Madison. That’s me. A former NYU princess who just fell from grace, right off my pampered Manhattan throne and onto the unforgiving steps of Nicole Brantley, socialite and queen bitch. Now, I walk her dog and mix her smoothies. Try to navigate my own problems while fixing all of hers.

I want what every New York girl wants. A career, an apartment, and true love, preferably in a smoking hot package.

It turns out I’ll have to fight for all of it.

REVIEW

OK, I am a HUGE fan of this author.  I have read other works of her’s and mostly  they have been thrillers but I really loved this cover.  I mean, it is seriously adorable, so I wanted to give Love, Chloe a try.  I am so glad that I did because this book was sassy, smart, funny, sweet, and ridiculously sexy!  I fell in love with it and it just might be a favorite of mine of this author’s.

‘Life might be a bitch, buy love?  She kicked that bitch’s ass.’

Oh, Chloe I love your ‘rich girl turned poor girl’ self.  I admit at the beginning of the book that I rolled my eyes a time or two at your ridiculously snobby self but as you grew into a better, hard working, real person, I admit I totally fell for you.  I found myself rooting for your successes and mourning your loses.  The author somehow managed to make me feel incredibly connected to Chloe, like she was a best girlfriend of mine instead of a fictional character.  My understanding is that this book was based on a serial that the author wrote for a magazine but I never read them so I was enraptured, it being my first time meeting Chloe and all.  I also really loved that Chloe’s rich girlfriends in the book weren’t really snobby and were great friends to her.  But I have to admit that one of the best parts was blue collar, sexy as sin, Carter.  Holy moly, this guy is melt your panties sexy and I instantly wanted him for Chloe!

”Then again, my tastes seemed to be changing.  I might have to dip my toe into that pool once or twice.  Just to taste that poison.  Just to have it on my skin.’

But I have to admit I did enjoy rich boy ex-boyfriend, Vic.  I mean he is ridiculously rich and quite alpha!  He got my mojo going, if you know what I mean.  So I bet as you can tell there is a bit of a love triangle happening here.  Just a bit, along with some other very very sketchy stuff.  Like crazy dog watching jobs, and assistant to a queen B!

So, since I have read mostly thrillers where this author shocks the pants off of me, I was wondering if Love, Chloe had any shockers or surprises and it did have a few.  Nothing major but not stuff that I saw coming.  On top of the surprises, you get some hilarious moments, complete sweetness from two crazy for Chloe men, and fabulous love story about a girl who falls in love with herself too.  I just loved this one!  5 Stars!

‘Thats right, bitches.  I couldn’t balance my checkbook and I didn’t know the capital of Iowa but apparently I gave amazing head.’
