Synopsis

My name is Autumn
Winters.

The truth is, that’s the biggest lie I’ve ever
told.

My real name is Olivia Redmund. Autumn Winters
is the curtain I hide behind. You see, I write bestselling erotic romance
novels. But my life is far from erotic. The only fantasy exists in my head.

The day I met Hunter Grayson, that all changed.
A handsome stranger on a train who turned my world upside down, made me think
and feel things I never knew were possible.

But he’s hiding, too.

What happens when I slowly realize that who I
truly am is more similar to who I’m pretending to be? I want to be brave enough
to tell the world, but the fear is crippling.

Fear of myself. Fear of the unknown. Fear of
what others will think.

But life is too short to be afraid.

And I’m so damn tired of hiding.

Finding Autumn Book Trailer

Excerpt

“Shit,” I mumble to myself when I spy the pink
vibrator, glaring proof of my non-existent sex life now on public display. “God
damn it,” I utter again, shaking my head and scrambling to grab it, when I
notice a pair of beautiful, masculine hands scooping up my belongings.
Completely mortified, my cheeks flush a deep red, and I’m silently praying he
hasn’t spotted my favorite sex toy. My eyes make their way from the ground,
climbing past the hands and up the length of strong, muscular arms to an
absolutely gorgeous face, and I take a hard swallow. A chiseled jaw with a hint
of stubble, irises the color of aged brandy, a sharp, sculptured nose, and
perfectly tousled hair that matches his hypnotic eyes. I don’t realize that I’m
staring until his lips quirk up into a grin.

Could I be any more obvious?

He tosses the items back in my purse and nods toward
the vibrator. “I’ll let you handle that one,” he offers, his voice a rich
timbre to my ears. “Although,” he whispers, leaning in close, “I’m sure I could
put it to good use.” My mouth drops open in surprise, just as he reaches his
thumb out to skim my bottom lip. “I’m pretty sure I could put this sexy mouth
to good use, too.”

**This is an Adult Contemporary Romance and due to strong language and sexual content, is not intended for readers under the age of 18.**

Review

I really enjoyed this novella but then I am a huge fan of a dirty talking man. Beth Michele did a great job of telling a fun and intriguing story in the short amount of time provided in the novella format. I was intrigued by the blurb with the main character being an erotic romance writer and I was not let down. This story was witty and fun and I cannot wait to read more from Beth.

Autumn Winters writes erotic tales of men taking women in very fun and dirty ways. Olivia Redmund stays alone in her apartment with her cat most nights. These two could not be more different . . . except they are the same person. Before a business trip Olivia decides she needs a little more Autumn in her life!

Enter Hunter Greyson. I LOVED HUNTER. He is a sexy, dirty talking man and I am a sucker for a dirty talking man. No lie. Hunter meets Autumn in line for coffee at the train station when she spills all her stuff (including some very personal items) from her purse. Instantly you can see the connection between them and then when he shows up on the train she is riding I was jumping for joy because I just knew this was going to get HOT.

The sexual chemistry is very apparent between these two but I could definitely see that it could be more than just that. But this is not all hearts, roses, and good sex. Both Autumn and Hunter have trust issues that make forming relationships very difficult. Throughout the whole story, I was rooting for them to get past their issues and see that they could be more than just a fun time on a business trip.

Beth Michele did a great job a telling an engaging story in a short period of time and I will definitely be looking forward to reading more by her. My only concern with the book is sometimes the phrases felt repetitive, not enough for me to not enjoy the book and definitely not enough to make me want to stop reading. Overall I found this to be a very enjoyable novella that I would recommend people read.

Author Bio

I’m an Ineffable Dom. That just means, do yourself a favor and please don’t try to describe me or fit me into your categories. Complicated Dom, Intricate Dom, Confounding Dom work too.

I love very much the soft side of a woman. Not just her body, but everything on the inside– her passion, her intelligence, her convictions, her delicate tenderness. But the one fetish that might be a part of what makes me an Ineffable Dom is that I love her strengths. I love a woman that isn’t afraid to look me in the eyes and say ‘make me’. But I need it to be real, not staged, not pretended. She has to be a fighter at her core the way I’m a Dom at my core. I want an equal that is willing to come hard against me in every sense of the word, exhaust me. I want her so deep inside me that we’re lost in each other. I want her to never doubt that I will always use my power to adore her, protect her, liberate her. I don’t want a woman I can break, or overpower, or exercise my dominance over, I want a woman I can come undone with. I want a woman I can jump off the cliff with into that abyss of holy hell, this is beyond me, beyond my control. The greatest fear of most people is losing themselves or unravelling their roots. My greatest fear is not finding a woman I can take that plunge with. Yes, it’s a huge risk. That’s the yin and the yang of it. And while the risk titillates my Dom, it’s the ineffable fruit of that risk that moves him. He knows he has to have it. He knows he’s supposed to have. And he’s prepared to dominate for it.

I think there are many men like myself, and I hope my writing will be a map for them. A map for women as well, to let them know Doms like this exist. I’d like to call them out of the woodwork. Help men join with their natural inner Doms in a way that I think is one of the most fulfilling experiences there are. I want to challenge them all to go for the complete power exchange with a woman, but don’t be a coward and not give the same that they demand or expect. And consider that when you give one hundred percent of yourself to a person, there is no more of you to give away. You now belong to them the way they belong to you.

Inner Doms are dogs that need a master to train them. I once bowed to my Dom’s reckless and tireless desires, but when I gained control, he bowed to my will. The transformation made me into what I am today. What many would call an Ineffable Dom. But its equal term in the Vanilla world, in my opinion, is a real man.

Rev by JC Emery Cover Reveal

By Miranda Arnold in Reveals & Tours

We met him in Ride as the no-nonsense Sergeant-at-Arms of the Forsaken Motorcycle Club who disapproved of Ryan’s choice to be with Alex, and again in Thrash as a man who few dare to challenge. Now, get to know Grady in his own words as he struggles to keep his club and his personal life from falling apart before his very eyes.

Rev will be released on May 8th

Synopsis:

Everyone belongs somewhere. Even the
misfits.

With the looming threat from the
Mancuso Crime Family, the Forsaken Motorcycle Club is preparing for a war that
could destroy them. Grady, the club’s Sergeant-at-Arms, knows that love makes
you weak, and he has zero interest in adding to his liabilities– especially
now. He’s already got his teenage daughter who keeps him on his toes and a beef
within the club that could fracture his relationship with a fellow brother for
good.

For Holly
Mercer, her life is finally getting on track and the last thing she wants is
trouble from her hometown’s resident outlaws. Keeping her nose clean is easier
said than done, when suddenly she finds herself embroiled in club business.
Holly might like the idea of being with a real-life bad boy, but even being in
the same room with tough-as-nails Grady flusters her.

Ride

Death comes
in Armani. Salvation comes in leather.Principessa to the Mancuso crime family, Alexandra knows a thing or two about
living outside the bounds of the law. Suffocated by the future her father has
laid out for her, she makes a choice she can’t take back, changing the entire
trajectory of her life.Thrust into the dark and dangerous world of the Forsaken Motorcycle Club for
her own protection, Alex finds herself faced with the last thing she needs
right now: the man of her dreams. He’s sex in leather, the devil incarnate, and
one hell of a kisser. But he’s also off-limits. Ryan Stone can be her friend,
but he’s forbidden to be her lover.Third-generation Forsaken, Ryan knows nothing other than life on two wheels,
and he wouldn’t have it any other way. He enjoys the many privileges that come
with the patch, and the only laws he recognizes are the ones set-forth by his
club. That is, until who he wants more than anything isn’t allowed on the back
of his bike —or in his bed. Balancing his desire for her body, and need to keep
her safe, Ryan tries to keep Alex at a distance. Finally having made a choice
for herself, she’s done hearing the word “no” and will push boundaries even
Ryan himself doesn’t dare cross.Love is never more tempting than when it’s forbidden.

THRASH

Loneliness
suffocates the heart. Acceptance breaks down walls.As a Lost Girl to the Forsaken Motorcycle Club, Nicole Whelan knows how to
party. She’s not cut-out for relationships and her life is way too complicated
for anything more than casual encounters. But one night when she falls into
Duke’s bed at the clubhouse, he sees something in her that he can’t let go
of—no matter how many times she tries to run.Having been left to raise her teenage brother, Jeremy, she’s already got her
hands full and isn’t looking for anymore complications. But Duke’s just watched
his best friend fall for the only girl he couldn’t have, and then almost lose
her so shortly after, shaking him to his core. Faced with his own loneliness,
he’s more determined than ever to break down Nic’s walls and show her that he
can be good for her; but he’s got a bad track record and she’s got a bad
temper. Changing his ways isn’t easy when he’s not sure what he’s even changing
for.The violence and turmoil are at an all-time high, and Forsaken is in a
vulnerable place when a twist of fate breathes new life into the club. It’s a
much-needed beacon of hope for the embattled biker family, even if everyone’s
not exactly on board. With Duke and Nic’s relationship already on shaky ground,
and something even more important at stake, the Forsaken Motorcycle Club will
fight like hell to keep their family together and whole.Love is never more precious than when it’s new.

As a child, JC was fascinated by things that went bump in
the night. As they say, some things never change. Now, as an adult, she divides
her time between the sexy law men, mythical creatures, and kick-ass heroines
that live inside her head and pursuing her bachelor’s degree in English. JC is
a San Francisco Bay Area native, but has also called both Texas and Louisiana
home. These days she rocks her flip flops year round in Northern California and
can’t imagine a climate more beautiful.JC writes adult, new adult, and young adult fiction. She dabbles in many
different genres including science fiction, horror, chick lit, and murder
mysteries, yet she is most enthralled by supernatural stories– and everything
has at least a splash of romance.

Dom Wars Round Two By Lucian Bane Review

By Amie Knight in 5 Smooches, Reviews

5 Smooches!

Synopsis

Review

OMGEEEEE! Lucian and Tara are back and they are still up to all kinds of craziness! I cannot believe how much I am loving this series. I feel like it is my guilty pleasure. It is just so cray. The first book was really hilarious and I laughed hysterically through most of it. Round Two is funny too, but I really felt like I got to know the characters backgrounds and personalities better. Lucian…ohhh Lucian. You are just so damn sexy. I cannot get enough of him. He is just the right combination of Dom and Gentleman and lord…I need aftercare. Lots and lots of aftercare. Whew.

Tara is just as neurotic and wackadoodle as ever but you cannot help but love her silly ass. Now, Lets discuss the sexy time in this book. Dear Lord Sweet Baby Jesus! It was so hot. Just so damn SMOKING HOT! So taboo..it even made me blush. Oh, I loved it!

Damn, Author Lucian Bane did it again! He proved me wrong with the first Dom Wars and Round Two was even better. I kind of hate myself for how much I like this insane series. Oh well, when is the next?!

Dom Wars-Round One by Lucian Bane Review

By Amie Knight in 5 Smooches, Reviews

5 Smooches!

Synopsis

Review

I am not going to lie. I went into this review negatively and with a lot of preconceived notions about this book. First, I took a look at the cover and was like, meh. Its just OK. I wasn’t crazy about it. Then I saw the author. Lucian Bane. Ugh. Another man claiming to be a Dom and writing a book about it. It seems like everyone in the world has hopped on this money train lately and left the station. The third thing was the synopsis. It sure as hell isn’t a lot to go on. At just four sentences long, how am I supposed to know what this book is about? I love when a book surprises the hell out of me and proves me wrong. So, Dom Wars was pretty much like “EFF YOU, Amie, EFF YOU”!

Dom Wars was everything I didn’t expect; comical, romantic, and sexy! I truly expected a dark book with an abusive Dom and submissive woman. What I got, was a charming lovable Dom and the most un-submissive sub EVER.

Lucian and Tara have entered Dom Wars, a competition to find the best dom. This competition is stiff (haha, you love how I did that, right?) and the stakes are high ,as Lucian and Tara both need the grand prize money in a bad way. Tara and Lucian antics are down right hysterical through most of this book. I found myself laughing out loud at some of Tara’s un-sub like behavior, and Lucian’s response.

When they weren’t making me laugh, they were capturing my heart with their troubled past and sympathetic love for each other. I really did enjoy this book. My only other gripe is that is was sooo short and their is a bit of a cliffy at the end. I cannot wait until the next one!

Finding My Way by Heidi McLaughlin Excerpt Blitz

By Miranda Arnold in Reveals & Tours

Today is the excerpt blitz for the upcoming book FINDING MY WAY by Heidi McLaughlin. The book will be released April 14th and is currently up for pre-order.

FINDING MY WAY Excerpt Blitz

“Liam?”

I turn at the sound of my grandmother calling my name. She beams at me when I step toward her with an out stretched hand.

“I want to you meet a friend of mine,” she says. “Liam this is Tess and her son Harrison James. Tess is the personal assistant to my casting agent.” We spent a day going over all the jobs in the industry. There are so many that I got lost and like a true grandma, she made a list for me so I wouldn’t forget. “Harrison plays the drums at a club called Metro. They have open mic nights if you’re interested in talking to him about it,” she whispers. I nod, acknowledging what she’s telling me.

I step forward and shake both their hands. “It’s nice to meet you both,” I say.
“You too, Liam, your grandmother has told me so much about you. She’s very happy you’ve decided to stay with her.” I look at my grandma who is smiling from ear to ear.

She pats my arm. “Why don’t you take Harrison out back and show him around?”

“Okay, grandma.” I kiss her on the cheek and signal toward the patio door. Harrison follows, stepping out into the early evening sun. I walk until I’m at the back, where there is a table set up.

“Sorry about my grandmother in there. I think she’s trying to make up for all the years we’ve missed.” I sit down and lean my chair up against the tree.

“It’s okay. I was pretty much forced to come here tonight.” I inspect Harrison. He’s a bit taller than I am and far skinnier. He has a few tattoos on his arms, making wonder if they’re a necessity in the music industry. I quickly look down at my arms, curious as to what they’d look like with inked etched on them. One thing is for certain, my parents would flip and that thought alone makes me want one.

“Because of me?” I ask already knowing the answer but needing the confirmation.

He nods. “Yeah,” he says without making eye contact. “My mom is close to your grandmother so they plotted and here I am.”

“I’m sorry. If you want to leave, I can make up some excuse.” I know what it feels like to be put in awkward situations. My dad has done it to me many times, which only spurred me to withdraw from him more and more.

Harrison shakes his head slightly. “I’m cool.” He looks down at the ground or his feet. It’s not like I want to stare, but I’m trying to figure him out. He runs his hand over his beanie, moving it back and forth before leaving it where it originally was.
