Coup De Grace by Lani Lynn Vale Release Blitz

By Miranda Arnold in Reveals & Tours

Title: Coup De Grace

Series: Code 11 KPD SWAT #7

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: November 4, 2015

Michael was that guy.

The one that everyone was cautious of. Maybe it was the tattoos. Maybe it was the way he gave off a ‘don’t screw with me’ vibe. Maybe it was because he just told them to leave him the hell alone.

Regardless, people gave him his space.

He was screwed up, and everyone knew it.

He got tattoos because he liked the pain. He was standoffish. He didn’t have many friends outside of work. And the only thing he had going for him was that he was a good cop.

Everyone wondered about him, but no one asked.

The only one that didn’t treat him as if he was screwed up was Nikki Pena, a woman that he couldn’t have.

Nikki was that girl.

The one that everyone loved.

The one girl that he’d destroy if he let her have her way. What did she want?

Him.

But, he couldn’t give her him. She didn’t deserve what it would take to be with him.

So Michael would suffer in silence…or so he thought.

The woman who loved him had different ideas.

Check out our 5 smooches review HERE.

Taking my two coffees, I walked back down the hallway to the ER. When I turned the final corner that would take me into the ER, I ran straight into a brick wall of flesh.

Instinctively, I lifted my hands up to save the coffee, and inadvertently padded my collision with my breasts which pressed up against a hard, well defined chest. They instantly pebbled.

“Oh!” I said in surprise.

“Fuck,” a deep voice hissed out, hands moving to my hips to keep me steady.

That voice always had the capability to send shivers down my spine.

“Michael,” I breathed, smiling timidly at him.

“Nik,” he sighed. “Sorry, I wasn’t watching where I was going.”

Bringing my cups down, I stepped back, and instantly regretted the loss of his heat.

I knew, though, that the longer I stayed there touching him, the harder it’d be to move away.

“I got you this,” I said, shoving the coffee in his direction.

He caught it before I could spill it all over his chest, but to be honest, his shirt really couldn’t get much worse.

Not with the massive amount of blood I could see soaking it.

He’d have to throw this one away.

It may be black, but there was no way he could get the blood out of this one.

The white lettering that designated him a KPD officer was stained red, and I had a feeling that it wouldn’t come out. Not with any amount of scrubbing.

“Thanks,” he said, sounding surprised.

“You look like you needed it,” I muttered, walking around him to the door that led into the ER.

He smiled sadly.

“‘Preciate it,” he muttered, staring at the coffee like it was the answer to all of life’s questions.

Seeing him like that made me remember the last time he’d done that.

It’d been at a SWAT meeting that’d turned into an impromptu party when I’d shown up with a box full of tamales from my mother.

***

Two years ago

“Holy crap that man’s freakin’ hot!” I said to my best friend in the whole wide world.

Georgia was freakin’ beautiful. Just as beautiful now as she had been when she’d left.

And I’d missed the absolute crap out of her.

Georgia smiled over at me.

“Which one?” She asked cheekily.

I knew that was right.

They were all overly hot.

Except my brother. He was just my brother, and eww. That was just wrong to think of that… on so many levels I couldn’t even list them all.

“Everyone but Nico. He’s ugly,” I told her.

She gave me a roll of her eyes. “Your brother is beautiful, and you damn well know it.”

I shrugged.

“I was talking about Michael,” I stated, watching as he leaned forward on his chair and laced his fingers between his knees.

Georgia rolled her eyes.

“Why are you always going for the bad ones?” She asked, forcing a beer in my hand.

I blinked.

“I don’t like beer,” I said, extending my hand to her, as well as the bottle.

She gave me a pointed look. “Go take it to him. He asked for it.”

Butterflies started to churn in my belly, and I smiled at my best friend. “I love you, you know.”

Georgia’s eyes sparkled with unshed tears. “Don’t make me cry. Take it to him before I do.”

Sticking out my tongue, I walked across the space separating Georgia and me from the men.

I knew he’d clocked me from the moment I left Georgia.

He wasn’t so much as watching me, as he was aware of me.

When I arrived at his side, he turned his face up to me and looked at me, not smiling.

“Your beer?” I offered it to him.

He took it from me carefully. So carefully that he didn’t touch a single piece of my skin in the transfer.

“Thanks,” he muttered, smiling half-heartedly. “’Preciate it.”

I had seen him before. Noticed him at SWAT events. Watched him while visiting my brother. That was the night I became aware of him.

That I became obsessed with him.

That was the night that my world changed, and I wished upon a star, while standing under the star-lit sky with Michael next to me.

Hours after handing him that beer, he told me about his ex-wife. About his job. About how his wife blamed him for not wanting kids, as for why she’d cheated on him.

That was the night I fell in love with him.

Head over boot heels.

***

“Do you need some clothes?” I asked softly.

He shook his head. “No. I’m gonna go straight to the station and change into my workout gear. Thanks for the offer, though.”

Smiling, I punched in the code that would get me through the door, but stopped when Michael called my name.

“Nikki?”

I turned to find him staring at me.

His eyes full of pain.

“You…you want to catch dinner and a movie this week?” He asked hopefully.

I blinked, then a small smile split my face. “Yeah, I think I’d like that.”

He nodded, turned, and walked out of the building. Not once glancing back.

And there I was left in the hallway, practically bouncing on my toes in excitement.

Then I turned around, and the smile slowly fell from my face when I saw Joslin standing there, her eyes full of fire.

Choosing to ignore her, I walked past her with a muttered, “Excuse me.”

But I knew that wouldn’t be the end of it.

Not even close.

I’m a married mother of three. My kids are all under 5, so I can assure you that they are a handful. I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us. I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.

Review

Coupe de Grace is the seventh and final installment in Lani Lynn Vale’s fantastic Code 11-KPD SWAT series and is Michael and Nikki’s story. One of the things I loved most about this series was the way Vale was able to surprise me in each book with an imperfect hero – each one of them had some characteristic, flaw, or issue that they hid, dealt with or had to live with. Some of these things I never saw coming, and of the ones whose situation I did see coming, the surprise was in the way that character handled themselves or their issue. It was really refreshing to read about these totally badass alpha males dealing with some of these things, it just made these guys all the more endearing to me.

Michael ‘Saint’ Alvarez, the lone police officer in a family of medical professionals, is used to not meeting up to expectations. His choice of profession is a constant source of friction with his family, a family that includes his pediatrician father, surgeon brother and his mother and sister who were both nurses. Michael attempted to tow the line by going to medical school. But while witnessing a particular procedure during his schooling greatly affected him, he realized he couldn’t actually pursue the profession. Instead, he went into the Navy, while finishing up his degree, and then upon his discharge, he joined the Kilgore Police Department as a patrol and SWAT officer.

“I was in love with the woman. No ifs, ands or buts. So in love with her that I could barely be around her.”

Nikki Pena is a phlebotomist working on the IV Team at the hospital while studying to become a midwife. The younger sister of Michael’s police officer colleague, Nico, she’s the life of the party, notoriously and chronically late and has been in love with Michael as long as she’s known him. They dated briefly two years earlier when a comment by Michael didn’t come out exactly as he intended and a devastated Nikki ended it. For his part, Michael never corrected her understanding his mistaken statement, thinking instead that he was doing her a favor by letting her go.

“She would forever have my heart, but I’d never hold hers.”

For two years, the pair circled or avoided each other while studiously attempting to ignore their feelings for the other. When finally, on a really rough day for Michael, Nikki reaches out by doing something kind for him, and he realizes he’s had enough of being without her. He asks her out, she accepts, and they begin seeing each other again.

“I’m not that fucked up mess I was when I was fifteen. I’m not ever ‘in my head!’”

Michael is working with some outside agencies to solve a string of murders against police officers and their spouses, and this case is affecting him greatly. Coupled with the fact that he’s “being handled” by his family because of his brother’s engagement to his ex-wife, the hospital whore, nurse Joslin, he’s grateful for the light that Nikki brings to his otherwise dark life.

“…the thing about Michael and me was that we’d both gone through hell together and come out the other side.”

These two had a lot to overcome and deal with in order to be together. If he wanted to keep her, Michael needed to open himself up and share with her. It wasn’t easy for him, but he did it. For her part, Nikki had to trust in their relationship and that Michael was going to let her in. Having been burned by him before, this wasn’t easy for her. Nikki gets news that could rip them apart, will she trust this new Michael with the truth or will she keep it hidden?

“I just knew everything would be alright. Why, you ask? Because Michael said it would, that’s why.”

I loved these two! These two have always been in love with each other. Stuck in the barely friends zone for so long, they had their work cut out for them to get to the other side. Michael was determined, though, that this time would be different, and Nikki was hopeful.

“We had our scars. We had our doubts. But we also had each other, and as long as I had him at my side, we could get through just about anything.”

I loved the way that Vale portrayed Michael. He had a lot of issues revolving around his condition, and she nailed those issues perfectly. This was probably one of the more emotional books in the series, and it dealt with some heavy issues. Ever the masterful storyteller that Vale is, though, she managed to balance it out perfectly with light and funny moments. And of course, no Lani Lynn Vale book would be complete without those hilarious quotes that kick off each chapter.

Another book down, another series complete, and what is sure to be yet another bestseller for the talented Lani Lynn Vale. Coupe De Grace was a fantastic ending to a fan favorite series! I love this author, I love this series, and I loved this book.

Five hot, honest and hopeful smooches for Lani Lynn Vale and Coupe De Grace!

From Crashing: The Wedding

In my boots and cutoff jeans, I pulled open the heavy wooden door of The Saloon. Whiskey and cigarette smoke burned my nostrils as I weaved around the packed bar trying to find everyone. All of a sudden, I was scooped up from behind by my waist, feet dangling in the air and the sound of Mitch’s voice trying to yell over the music, “Mags! Found her! I found Cali!”

I playfully struggled in his arms, whipping around to throw my arms around one of my best friends in the world. Mags, Randy, and Walker weren’t too far behind and right as Walker put a drink in my hand, Mags’ and my favorite line dancing song came on. We handed our beers off to the guys and darted to the middle of the wooden floor to boot stomp to Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne.

By the end of the fast-paced song, we were sweating and panting as we giggled off the dance floor.

As he handed me back my beer, Randy shouted, “Thanks for everything, Cal. Mags told me you made her see clearly again.”

I shoved his shoulder. “Don’t mention it. Besides, who can ever deny making sure true love finds a way?”

He laughed at me and hugged me around my shoulders. It was palpable what a good guy Randy was and how much he cared about everyone. It was also so freaking shocking that he and Walker were as good of friends as they were.

Walker was a two-timing, womanizing bag of dicks that had no respect for anyone except himself, and I felt like I was the only one that saw through the fakeness of his coy smile and good looks.

“So how does it feel to be out of the bar business for good?” Mags beamed at me as Randy wrapped his hands around her middle.

I took a long swig. “Fucking fantastic!”

“Can you believe we’re all growing up?” Walker chimed in, handing each of us a shot.

I smelled the straight Jameson, shivers immediately radiating down my spine. “Whiskey? Really?”

Walker winked and held his shot glass in the air to make a toast. “To Cali and her new job, and to us, the five best friends!”

You want to know more about me? Well, let’s see…

I am just an average twenty-something following my dreams. I have a full time “day job” and by night I am an author. I guess you could say that writing is like my super power (I always wanted one of those). I am the lover of wine, sushi, football and the ocean; that is when I am not wrapped up in the literary world.

Please feel free to contact me to chat about my writing, books you think I’d like or just to shoot the, well you know.

A portion of all my profits are donated to The Marcie Mazzola Foundation.

Taking It Off by Claire Kent Review

By Miranda Arnold in 3 Smooches, Reviews

3.5 Smooches

Synopsis

Can’t get enough Magic Mike? Let bestselling author Claire Kent introduce you to Matt Stokes, the sexy-as-sin male stripper and club owner who knows what it really means to bare everything.

Preschool teacher Elizabeth Marks isn’t exactly thrilled to be attending a college friend’s bachelorette party at a male strip joint. The sights—screaming women, half-naked hunks—are just as sleazy as she expected, with one exception: the man standing at the back, radiating sensual heat despite being fully clothed. When Elizabeth takes refuge outside, he chases her down and dares her to stay. It turns out that her mystery man is the owner—and, as tonight’s headliner, the one guy Elizabeth wouldn’t mind seeing naked.

Matt Stokes lives his life one day, one dance at a time. But as he challenges Elizabeth to get in touch with the passionate, impulsive woman behind her prim façade, she brings out another side of him as well. This girl isn’t just another pretty face—or paying customer—and Matt can’t help wanting more. Onstage, he’s used to exposing his body. Now Matt will have to expose his heart. Because when it comes to real love, that’s the one striptease that matters.

Review

The hot cover and Magic Mike feel of the blurb drew me in to this book and had me excited to start it. But once again, as I feel with many published books, I was left wanting more. I don’t know if it is a case of too many cooks in the kitchen but with published books I sometimes feel like the drama is just watered down (there are clearly exceptions to this and hence why I keep trying them.) Still the book was well edited and the writing smooth. It was in third person which is not my personal favorite but some people prefer it so it is worth mentioning.

“Because no matter how stupid and vulgar she’d found most of the evening’s performances, she didn’t feel the same about this one. About Matt. She found it sexy. She found him sexy.”

Taking It Off is the story of a rich girl, preschool teacher who goes to a male strip club for a bachelorette party and spends the entire time making it very clear that she finds nothing about the men dancing sexy or fun and cannot wait to get out of there. Then she makes eye contact with a sexy man across the room and instantly knows there is more to him. Enter Matt, former (sometimes still) dancer and owner of Bare Assets. After running into Elizabeth outside the bathroom he challenges her to give the club a fair shot and come back twice a week for a month. Never one to look weak she agrees and soon she is not only coming to the club she is coming (hehe) with Matt. The book involves the two of them having a lot of decently hot sex in the club and both thinking that it has an expiration date. Matt knows he is not good enough for a society girl and Elizabeth knows Matt is not the kind of man she always envisioned spending her life and starting a family with.

“A girl like that, you don’t just walk away from afterward. Not without damage to show for yourself.”

Taking It Off wasn’t a case of me not liking a book it simply was just a good, fast easy read that was low on the drama radar. If you are looking for a easy read with plenty of sex than Taking It Off might just be what you need.

Kayla Moore has always been comfortable with her feisty, maneating reputation. At least it was fine until she hit her thirties and saw her best friends Stephanie and Nicola settle down with Linden and Bram McGregor, leaving Kayla to be the odd one out. Tired of being the third wheel with nothing but one-night stands and dead-end dates in San Francisco, Kayla decides to take a vow of celibacy and put men on the backburner.

That is until she lays her eyes on Linden and Bram’s cousin, hot Scot Lachlan McGregor. Lachlan is her sexual fantasy come to life – tall, tatted, and built like a Mack truck. With a steely gaze and successful rugby career back in Edinburgh, he’s the kind of man that makes her want to throw her vow right out the window. But Lachlan’s quiet and intense demeanor makes him a hard man to get to know, let alone get close to.

It isn’t until the two of them are thrown together one long, unforgettable night that Kayla realizes there is so much more to this brooding macho man than what meets the eye. But even with sparks flying between the two, Lachlan can’t stay in America forever. Now, Kayla has to decide whether to uproot her whole life and chance it all on someone she barely knows or risk getting burned once again.

Published: October 27, 2015

He’s a walking contradiction…

Cam Strickland, one of the four owners of Pier 70 Marina, has earned the nickname his friends gave him years ago. Reckless. Sure. By definition. When it comes to fun, Cam hasn’t yet met a challenge he wouldn’t accept. In other areas, he’s likely far too cautious for his own good.

He’s his complete opposite…

Gannon Burgess, CEO of Burgess Entertainment, one of the top video game producers in the world, finds himself smack in the middle of the last place he would ever expect to be. But Gannon only thinks he is out of his element standing in the small marina office. Then… he meets Cam.

Rumor is opposites attract.

Sparks fly when this sexy, tattooed bad boy comes face to face with this buttoned-up gamer in glasses.

Can Cam and Gannon push one another out of their comfort zones? Or — thanks to the events that have shaped their lives — will the time they spend together prove to be just another reckless adventure? This one involving their hearts.

Reckless Excerpt © Nicole Edwards 2015

“That guy was totally checking you out,” Milly said when Gannon pulled out onto the road that would lead back to the office. “Holy shit. Did you see his tattoos? And those muscles.”

Yeah, Gannon had seen them, all right.

“And I’m pretty sure his nipples were pierced?”

Gannon didn’t take his eyes off the road, not wanting Milly to see the confusion on his face. “Pierced? Why would…? What makes you think that?”

“I could see the outline through his shirt. Sheesh. Pay more attention, Gannon.”

Oh, he’d paid plenty of attention. Too much attention.

Milly continued. “He was hot, right? You thought he was hot?”

Gannon chuckled, amused by her excitement. It wasn’t new for Milly. She was constantly attempting to set him up with someone, and on the off chance Gannon showed even the slightest hint of interest, she was all over it.

“You should call him,” she said, still rambling incessantly. “Ask him out. Or maybe he’ll call you. If he does, will you go out with him?”

“Take a breath.”

Milly made a dramatic effort to inhale and exhale, giggling as she did. “That was so worth the hour trip,” she told him.

“So does that mean we don’t have to go out on the boat then?”

She leveled him with a glare.

Couldn’t blame him for trying.

“I wonder if he’ll be the one to take us out on the lake next week.”

Gannon did, too. Part of him hoped he did; the other part, now that he’d had a chance to get his bearings, wasn’t sure he could handle being close to Cam for any extended period of time. As it was, every time he blinked, Gannon saw him as vividly as though he were still standing only a few feet away.

That couldn’t be good.

“When we get back to the office,” Milly began, “I’m gonna send out a memo and let the team know this is a mandatory team-building event.”

“Mandatory?” Gannon glanced over at her.

“If I give them an option, they’ll stay right there in the office.”

True, they would. He would, too.

Thankfully, Milly was silent for a few minutes. Long enough for Gannon to gather his thoughts about Cam.

He wondered if Milly was right. Maybe he should ask Cam out.

It’d been a long time since he’d felt this sort of attraction to a man; surely he shouldn’t ignore it. If he did, who knew how long it would be before it happened again.

You’ll see him on Tuesday, remember?

Okay, so the voice in his head had a point, but could he wait until then? What if he didn’t get to see Cam on Tuesday? What if someone else took them out on the boat? Then what would he do?

What if Cam wasn’t interested? What if Gannon made a fool of himself?

Gannon took a deep breath.

The pessimism didn’t suit him. He didn’t like to think negatively. Though he hadn’t always had the easiest life, he had set out years ago to think positive. He attributed his success to that, the fact that he didn’t look for doom and gloom around every corner.

So, yeah, what could it hurt?

“You’re thinking about him, aren’t you?”

Gannon shot a look at Milly. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Milly’s husky laugh filled the car. “And now I know you’re lying.”

“What makes you think that?”

“Because you didn’t answer my question with a question.”

Turning back to face the road, Gannon smiled to himself.

This woman knew him too well.

Cam Strickland, one of the four owners of Pier 70 Marina, has earned the nickname his friends gave him years ago. Reckless. Sure. By definition. When it comes to fun, Cam hasn’t yet met a challenge he wouldn’t accept. In other areas, he’s likely far too cautious for his own good.

He’s his complete opposite…

Gannon Burgess, CEO of Burgess Entertainment, one of the top video game producers in the world, finds himself smack in the middle of the last place he would ever expect to be. But Gannon only thinks he is out of his element standing in the small marina office. Then… he meets Cam.

Rumor is opposites attract.

Sparks fly when this sexy, tattooed bad boy comes face to face with this buttoned-up gamer in glasses.

Can Cam and Gannon push one another out of their comfort zones? Or — thanks to the events that have shaped their lives — will the time they spend together prove to be just another reckless adventure? This one involving their hearts.

Gay Romance

Review

No one can write M/M erotic fiction like Nicole Edwards. Her use of creative coarse language in sex scenes raises the bar from being simply erotic, to something more mesmerising and scintillating, the sexual tension that is paramount to building the stifling atmosphere of pheromones, is evident from the very first meeting between our two heroes, permeating the pages with lust and a beautiful and unpredictable journey, Nicole is able to take us on through her tale with complicated and lovable characters-the girl just has a knack for what constitutes as brilliant storytelling.

Reckless aka a super sexy and tattooed, thrill seeking Cam, spends his days at Pier 70 where he runs a boat shop with several of his friends, an eclectic mix of the hottest and most diverse gay men to ever grace my Kindle screen. It’s only when his company organises a fun filled staff day trip out on the water using Cam’s company, that charmingly geeky and wickedly studly Gannon crosses paths with the one man who is guaranteed to get his blood pumping (mostly below the waistline) and and take him out of his comfort zone.

Although there isn’t as much drama and suspense and action going on in Reckless, unlike a lot of Nicole’s other books, this one still managed to capture my heart and interest. Reckless is a character driven novel, relying heavily on Cam, Gannon and the Pier 70 crew to keep us hooked. Cam is delightful; he’s a little unsure in romance but give him water or a dangerous sport and he’s your man, Gannon however is his opposite-serious most of the time, hates water and likes to keep an orderly structured life, so it isn’t any wonder that when the two collide their passion is raw and real and so too are their fears and doubts.

‘The attractive tattooed bad boy had snagged Gannon’s attention for sure. It had been a long damn time since he’d had to play the cat-and-mouse game, and he had to admit, it was better than he’s remembered. Especially with Cam.’

It was a great book and had a fair amount of tension and a good dose of humour from a terrific set of supporting characters but it is the falling in love and battling back the fears that really made Cam and Gannon a sparkling set of heroes. I can’t wait to see which set of Pier boys get their story next.

When rock stars have too much time on their hands, they naturally turn to one thing…having a good time. A girlfriend. An ex-girlfriend. A best friend. A matchmaker. Four rock stars on tour. Plans are bound to backfire, but when they go right, it creates One Hot Christmas.

Nick – AM Madden

A one-night stand that broke all the rules. It was supposed to be one night. It was supposed to be meaningless–with no emotion. Just desire and passion. But it was so much more… By definition, a one-night stand is simply a sexual encounter lasting only a single night. Meaningless, mindless, detached fornication without an expectation of further relations. Each party then resumes their lives as if never having met the other. On a snowy night in Chicago, Nick and Angela had a one-night stand…and rewrote the definition.

Coming Home – Taryn Plendi

White Midnight – Shari J. Ryan

Christmas isn’t the same anymore, but at least I still have my little tree and the two unopened gifts that will forever haunt me. That’s what Christmas is to me now—sadness and bad luck. But then I met Bex in the middle of a blizzard in the mountains of New Hampshire (Did I mention I’m from Florida?). A chance encounter with this ruggedly good-looking mountain-man might just make me question how bad my luck really is.

A Holiday Discovery – Ellie Keys

Maria, a reporter, is in the center of a big story while on a trip. The decision: adventurous holiday or career goldmine?

Although she waited until she was in her 40’s to publish for the first time, writing has been a lifelong passion. Her motivation to take that step was her students: teaching creative writing to elementary age students all the way up through high school and encouraging those students to follow their writing dreams gave Samantha the confidence to take that step as well. When she’s not working on a new story, she spends her time reading contemporary romances, playing way too many games of Scrabble or Solitaire on Facebook and spending time with her husband of 25 years and their two sons in North Carolina.

My hope for The Geneva Project is that one day, with each book I sell, I can donate one book to a school or program in need of reading material for children.

My name is Elizabeth Hayes and I am from the Midwest. I have a few things I just happen to obsess over those include Hot pink and Zebra print, Unicorns, and cupcakes, and Books, I love to read and get lost in a book. I have thought about writing for a long time now and finally started to put words down. Ashlee and I are both new at this and our first book Finding Salvation is going to be thrown out there for you all to read. I must say I am having a hard time with this. I am the type of person that likes to know the outcome before I do anything. I want to know that this is going loved by most of you. The thing is I know that this book is going to be hopefully liked by some, hopefully loved by some, hated by some and just ok to some and I think I am finally ok with that. I am stepping out of my comfort zone. I hear that is a good thing. But with everything time will tell. So there you go! If you want to know more just ask.
