Judging Books by Shay Savage Release Blitz

LIVEfb-3

Blue with Green-3

JBeBook

The debutante path is a fairly straight track: who you are, who you associate with, and whose label you are wearing become priorities. They define you. They are the aspects by which you are judged.

Ashlyn’s world has been one of enlightenment and finesse, and now she is ready to take on the financial world at her father’s company just as he had always planned. Her future had been scripted long ago, but a chance meeting with a beautiful boy on a bicycle gives Ashlyn a new outlook on life.

Ethan is far too young, far too tattooed, far too pierced—just far too everything—to ever fit into her world. He has issues, too—major ones. Ashlyn knows he will never be accepted by her friends, let alone her overbearing father, but there is something about his live-in-the-moment outlook that keeps drawing her back into his arms.

Ashlyn must make a choice. Can she forgo the family dynasty and live life to the fullest with this fascinating but damaged young man?

Review

Jax and Penny may have known each other when they were younger but they have both grown up into very different lives. Jax is living the high life as a sexy, successful actor with the bad boy image thrown in. While Penny is living a very much opposite, mundane kinda life. So when Jax rings her out of the blue with a proposal to be his fake girlfriend to help clean up his image, Penny sees no reason not to. Things don’t stay simple for long however and soon this fake relationship starts involving, not fake and instead very real emotions and feelings. But with Hollywood, actresses and drama getting in the way, it won’t be easy for these two want to try and turn something fake into something real.

“It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that trying to find a decent guy to date in New York City is a damn near impossibility. Especially if you are—as my ex-boyfriend so charmingly put it—a grade-A, Type-A control freak with a stick up her ass.”

I don’t always love the whole Hollywood actor bad boy thing. I feel it can sometimes become quite boring and predictable BUT Heart Throb definitely pulled me back into enjoying this genre and I couldn’t get enough of Jax and Penny’s relationship!

“He tasted like salt and lime, and something dangerous. Pure Jax. We were in our own little world, and my head was spinning. Somewhere, a part of me was freaking out over the fact I was making out with Jax Hawthorne, but that part was muffled by how much my body wanted him, and just how good he felt.”

I LOVED LOVED LOVED Penny. I thought she was a brilliantly thought out heroine for this story. She was smart, funny, beautiful inside and out, and had a lot more to her than Jax first thinks. I thought she was the perfect match for our hero. Jax definitely has his “I’m the bad boy of Hollywood” moments but you can tell he generally cares for Penny. When he starts to realise there is more than just this fake relationship between them, we see a kind, sweet and caring side to Jax that just adds to his already sexy and confident personality.

“She was still fighting this connection between us, but after that kiss in the treehouse, I know. She felt it. All of it. And now it wasn’t a case of if, it was a case of when. And I could be patient. Because she was worth the wait.”

I would definitely class this as a rom-com read but it’s also a lot better than many of those already out there. There’s just something about the way the author writes the story and the characters that has you really connecting with this book and desperately wanting to get the HEA you need this book to have. It made me laugh, smile, angry, and ‘ahhh’ at the romance. I felt everything I want to feel for a romance novel that keeps me entertained. Jax and Penny’s story isn’t all hearts and roses and there was plenty of drama to keep this story flowing well and kept me wanting to turn the pages. Just a great all-round romance read!

“And for a brief moment, I had it all. But I was too stupid to see it for what it was. The reason everything was good, and I was happy and fulfilled, was you.”

Review

Wow. Van was nothing that I was expecting. I knew that the story, while a standalone, ran concurrently to Lucas so I thought I had an idea as to what it could be about but I was so so wrong. Van was so different than any of the other stories in the series, in some ways I adored and in some ways I had to grow to love the story and characters.

Let’s start by talking about how Simone had to grow on me. At first, her non-stop flirting, over the top aggressive sexual pursuit of  Van and generally immature behavior had me rolling my eyes. While in most romance novels it is the man being relentless to win the girl, in Van, it was Simone pursuing him and Van constantly telling her it was not going to happen. That being said by the halfway point I was warmed to her, she knew what she wanted and knew that despite how he acted Van wanted her. By the end of the book, I absolutely loved how she stuck to her guns and was confident in who she was. Simone might have been young and flapping in the wind when it came to what she wanted in her future but when it came to knowing who the man for her is, she was completely confident.

Now for Van! His story was difficult and his childhood has completely shaped the man he has become. He is closed off, brutish, and determined to be alone. Then Simone forced her way into his home, his bed, and his life. She is his roommate/teammate’s little sister and off limits, and yet when pushed to the edge of desire he can’t help but fall. I loved this broken hero. He wasn’t always kind or thoughtful but when he fell he fell hard. In my opinion, if you aren’t going to read all the books in this series this is not one you want to miss. Easily read as a standalone, trust me you want to read this EXTREMELY HOT hockey book!

Bad Dad by Sloane Howell Cover Reveal

 

cover reveal.JPG
AP new - synopsis.jpg
My son is my life. Nothing on earth matters but him.

Soon, I’ll have to send him out into society. The cruel machine that gnashes innocence and spits out the hollowed remains of a child’s imagination. It’s a place I know all too well, considering my past. I’ve worked hard to separate myself from it, but it looms in the back of my mind—waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

My son, Logan, wants to have birthday parties, make friends, play at the park—all the normal things that seven-year olds want to do. All the things I want to do with him.

I’ve put up walls around our life to shield us from danger. Giant barriers to ward off possible threats.

Cora Chapman crashes through them like a wrecking ball. She’s intelligent and hilarious with soft curves and a spark that ignites a flame deep inside of me.

There’s only one problem—she’s Logan’s teacher.

When my past wraps its tentacles around my throat and threatens to strangle the breath from my lungs, I’m given an option—fight for my family’s freedom, or die as they’re stripped away from me.

I can’t lose. I won’t lose.

My name is Landon Lane and I am a warrior.
Coming December 27th

Over Us, Over You by Whitney G Cover Reveal

Over Us, Over You

by Whitney G.
Publication Date: November 30, 2017
Genres: New Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Preorder: Amazon | iBooks

Subject: Delete this message after you read it…

Dear Hayley,

I’m assuming you’re still hungover, so I’ll make this brief.

Last night, you slipped under my sheets (without my permission), and we almost had sex. I got the hell out of the bed once I realized it was you, and I took you home.

That’s the story.

The end.

Period.

Just in case you’ve forgotten, you’re my best friend’s little sister. We will never be anything more. (We can’t be anything more.) Our previous friendship is still unresolved–or “over” in your terms, so I’d prefer if we worked on becoming ‘just friends’ again since you’re in town.

Nonetheless, I’m not a man who leaves questions unanswered–even the drunken ones, so to properly close our inappropriate conversation:

1) Yes, I liked the way your lips felt against mine when you were on top of me.
2) Yes, I do “prefer” rough sex, but I’m pretty sure I wasn’t rough with you.
3) No, I had no idea you were still a virgin…

This message never happened,
Corey

The Bachelor Contract by Rachel Van Dyken

4.5 Smooches

Synopsis

She’s everywhere.

Ex-wife.

Love of his life.

The last person in the world he wanted to see…ever.

And now that he’s working beside her every day, he can’t escape her. Her scent, glimpses of her smile, even the tension in the air that makes his body hum with the kind of need he’d only experienced with one person-all of it is driving him over the edge.

Brant Wellington was certain of three things:

Alcohol wasn’t going to solve this.

He really was losing his F-ing mind.

And his gorgeous ex-wife was going to be the death of him.

Review

While this is the third book in The Bachelor’s Of Arizona series this is only the second one I have read. I missed the second and sadly didn’t have time to catch up before this one was available. I can honestly say though that compared to the first in the series this one is definitely my favorite of the two. The Bachelor’s Contract is a second chance romance that has you rooting for NIkki to get the HEA she most definitely deserved.

After a whirlwind romance ended with the saddest of divorces both Brant and Nikki’s lives have been damaged beyond repair. Brant turned into an unfeeling manwhore and Nikki was left with wounds impossible to heal. After being forced back into each other’s lives by everyone’s favorite scheming grandma, Nadine for those longtime fans of the author, they have to face their past and acknowledge that the love they once shared might not be dead.

I absolutely love a second chance romance and Rachel Van Dyken has delivered an epic one wrapped up in a fun story. There were so many fun moments and the cast of characters has me desperate for more, please tell me that Cole is getting a book, please. If you want a second chance romance that has an amazing plot with a few twist and turns but not too much angst than this is the book you want to curl up with.

Respect by Aleatha Romig Cover Reveal

 

 

 

 

Respect – An Infidelity Stand-alone Novel

 

“The making of a man”

Standing at what I believe is the precipice of my life, I, Oren Demetri, was too young to understand that it wasn’t and too old to imagine that it couldn’t be.

The already hefty accumulation of my successes and failures, bravery and fears, and rewards and suffering, had brought me to this point. It was hard to contemplate the things I’d done, and yet, in reality I’d only begun to learn the possibilities.

 

I suppose that’s how it was for me at twenty-nine years of age on the brink of all I’d ever wanted without fully realizing the price I would pay. Yet in that moment, I knew there would be no cost too great or sacrifice I wouldn’t make. I had no idea how far-reaching that moment of self-discovery would be; because as the congregation’s murmurs quieted, bleeding into silence and allowing the thump of my heart to be the only sound I heard, I was a man filled with love and adoration, emotions in stark contrast to those I needed in the world I’d built or the one I was about to enter.

Angelina Costello was my dream and now my reality. I’d worked diligently to move beyond the actuality of being a dockworker’s son to becoming a self-made, successful entrepreneur, all in an effort to earn the right to call her my own. I’d overcome servitude to others, collecting their paychecks and lowly praises, to being the one who signed the paychecks and offered the accolades when they were rightfully earned.

The world was my oyster and walking toward me on the arm of her uncle was my pearl. I’d found her amongst the empty shells life had offered. There was no need to pry open another possibility. Angelina was all I wanted. Yet my path was uncharted. There was more for me to earn, lose, and willingly give.

The top of that list was respect.

This stand-alone novel may be read without reading the Infidelity series.

From New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author Aleatha Romig comes a stand-alone novel based from her beloved Infidelity series. With classic Aleatha Romig twists, turns, deceptions, and devotions, this new epic romantic thriller will delve into a world where family takes on new meaning and even the inhabitants are suspicious of the next chapter.
