Excerpt

The elevator slows to a stop on the ground floor, saving me from having to answer any more questions. I step off first, eager to leave, when I feel a firm hand on my arm, stopping me.
Turning back, I find Rebel standing over me, a tight look on his handsome face. “I’d like a minute of your time.”

Over his shoulder, I see Darren stepping out. He’s watching us, a curious frown on his face. When he sees the urgency in my eyes, he slows his strides. He’s waiting for me. Thank God!

“I don’t have time right now,” I reply curtly. When I attempt to walk away, his grip on my arm tightens.

“I guess I wasn’t clear. Let me rephrase.” His dark gaze holding mine, he says curtly, “Follow me, Miss Hart. I have something I need to discuss with you.”

This time, he doesn’t wait for me to answer. Turning, he begins walking away with me in tow. Twisting my head around, I search frantically for Darren. He’s still standing where I left him, staring after us with a helpless look on his face. I gesture for him to help, but he lifts his arms, shrugging as if he doesn’t know what to do.

Before I know it, I’m being whisked into an empty boardroom. With only one window and one door that serve as both an entrance and an exit, we’re completely closed off from the rest of the building. My heart is pounding erratically inside my chest as Rebel pushes the door shut behind us and turns the lock.

Standing with my back pressed against one of the chairs, my breath catches as Rebel turns and stalks toward me. “You haven’t returned my calls.”

An absurd urge to laugh overcomes me. For this to be the first thing out of his mouth speaks volumes. It means between us, I’m the one with the upper hand. Folding my arms over my chest, I look him straight in the eyes. “That’s because I changed my number.” It was the first thing I did after receiving those pictures.

Narrowing his eyes, Rebel closes the distance between us, forcing me to tip my head back to maintain eye contact. “Then give it to me.”

“Oh, sure. No problem. It’s 419-Go-Fuck-Yourself.”

With a movement that’s too quick to register, Rebel grabs a hold of my face and squeezes, tearing a startled gasp from my lips. “Was that a request?”

“More like a suggestion,” I reply, my words slurring from the inability to speak properly through pinched together lips.

“Hmm, well, I have a better suggestion.” Shoving the chair I’m leaning against away, he backs me into the table and, using my face as leverage, bends me backwards until I’m laid out flat on the hard wood.

With his free hand, Rebel gathers my skirt and pushes it roughly up to my hips, then parts my thighs with his, insinuating himself between them. Lowering his face to within inches from mine, he growls, “How about instead of standing here listening to you run your mouth I peel your panties off right here, stuff you full of my cock, and fuck you against this table until the only thing you can use that mouth for is screaming my name?”

Without wasting a second, Rebel’s mouth crashes down on mine, stealing my words, stealing my breath, and stealing my wits. Without another thought in my head, I open my mouth and my legs to him and begin to sink, a willing victim to his spell.

Grayson’s Vow by Mia Sheridan Review

5 Smooches!

kis34-1-3-4 kis34-1-3-4 (1) kis34-1-3-4 (2) kis34-1-3-4 (3) kis34-1-3-4 (4)

Synopsis

A full-length, standalone romance from the New York Times bestselling author of Archer’s Voice.

Kira Dallaire is desperate.

Some challenges in life seem too hard to overcome. With little money, and even fewer options, the quick-witted and vibrant twenty-two-year-old needs to reinvent herself. Known for her generous heart and impulsive personality, she devises a survival plan, possibly her most outrageous idea yet.

Grayson Hawthorn is losing hope.

Some obstacles in life seem too hard to overcome. Betrayal definitely being one of them. With limited capital, and dwindling resources, he is attempting to resurrect his failing family vineyard, a self-imposed vow seemingly destined to fail. That is until a young woman enters his office with an outlandish, unexpected proposition impossible to refuse.

What begins as a temporary business arrangement, soon evolves into more as vivacious, spirited Kira challenges detached, arrogant Grayson to want more from life. To want more for himself. But as their wills clash and fiery passion ignites, they’ll realize that sometimes the past creates walls too difficult to climb, and that lies and deception rarely precede a happily every after.

As Kira and Grayson race toward their destiny, they will discover that some vows are meant to be broken, and others are worth risking everything for . . . even your very own heart.

THIS IS A STANDALONE SIGN OF LOVE NOVEL, INSPIRED BY LIBRA. New Adult Contemporary Romance: Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

 

Review

“In wine there is truth.  Only here, there are only lies and deceptions.”

God, Mia Sheridan.  What you do to me.  Your books just take me to somewhere special and I literally get lost in that world and before I know it, it’s one a.m. and I am completely done with a book that feels like I just started it.  Mia’s books capture me, transport me, and enchant me.  They are ALL brilliant.

Now I definitely have some favorites of Mia’s and I am happy to report that Grayson’s Vow is no doubt among my favorites.  This story was just so unexpected.  It had a little of everything.  At times it was dark, and then it would be histerically funny, and the next so very very full of angst and feelings.  I can honestly say that I think this story has a little something for everyone, even lovers of fairy tales, because this book has it’s very own witch and dragon. 😉

Kira is the queen of schemes and harebrained ideas.  Well, she is in trouble, so she approaches Grayson and they strike a deal that will help the both of them.  But it doesn’t take long for their business arrangement to turn into more.

‘When I made lover to her, I wanted it always to be in light so I could see the flames in her hair, the glow of her emerald eyes.  I wanted to see all the ways in which her body proclaimed she was life itself, full of heat and passion.’

OK, so one of the most amazing things about this story were the two main characters.  I loved them so much.  See, they are really complete opposites.  They both had pretty sad and awful upbringings but they took each different routes on how to handle it.  Grayson is dark, brooding, and so very adult while Kira is almost childlike.  She likes to race and play games and pretend and have fun.  And one of my absolute favorite things in this book was seeing her bring Grayson around to her way of thinking.  Races on stair rails, drunken tree shanningans, and tractor dancing all made me fall in love with Kira right along with Grayson.  How could he not?  She embodies everything that he never got to experience as a child.  Seeing him be childlike with her was really one of the most amazing things about this story.

“You bring me peace, little witch, and you put a fire in my blood.”

And Kira, watching her fall in love with this magical house with its own maze and vineyard along with Grayson’s make shift family just made me smile.  Grayson’s “family” is hilarious and meddlesome and absolutely adorable.  Kira has to overcome her own insecurities before she finally lets go with Grayson but she when she does, it is magical.

‘My knight in shining armor standing in front of that bank, the promise that he would save me, and I, him, flowing through my heart like a secret whisper.’

These two had so much to overcome in this novel; their tragic past, a failing business, and Kira’s family.  But all through this novel, there is the underlying hope that everything will be ok.  Grayson’s Vow really did read like a modern day fairy tale for me.  The writing was amazing as is usual with Mia Sheridan and while some will say that this storyline has been done before I say so what?…. I bet that hasn’t been done THIS WELL!

Excerpt

 

“Have you thought about me?” I ask. “Since last night at the show? Because I’ve thought about you.”

 

“What did you think about me? That I’m your next victim?”

 

“No, actually.” I smooth down the blanket on the ground of the shed and then step towards her, taking her face in my hands and pulling her tight against my chest. “I’ve thought about your hot breath as you panted against my cock when I was standing on your chair. I thought about your upturned eyes, looking at me if I ever got the chance to get you on your knees.”

 

She gulps air.

 

“Now tell me what you’ve been thinking about. Because you wouldn’t be here if you didn’t want to be.”

 

“We’re locked in,” she whispers as my mouth moves in closer.

 

I kiss her softly. No tongue, just a small, tender kiss that makes girls melt. “You have a phone, Tiffy. One call to your BFF, Claudio, and you’re free.”

 

She stares at me.

 

“But even though I might be the biggest prick you ever met, you want me, don’t you.”

 

She swallows hard.

 

“And I want you. That’s why we’re here. I want you. So if you don’t feel the same way, now’s your chance to say so.”

 

“I want…” She stops. There was a word on her lips, but I’m almost certain it was not my name. Jealousy heats me up in a millisecond. What kind of girl has another man’s name on her tongue when she’s gazing up into my eyes?

 

“What?” I say sharply. “What were you gonna say?”

 

“I want to be irresistible. Like you.”

 

“What?” I have to admit, I’m surprised. And then I laugh. “Are you a virgin?”

 

“I’m twenty-six, asshole. I’m not a fucking virgin.”

 

“Then what do you mean? I’m confused.”

 

“You’re just…” She sighs. “So good at this stuff. Seduction, right? I’m bad at it.”

 

“Who do you want to seduce?” My jealous rage is back.

 

“No one. Not specifically. But you’re so confident. And I’m so… not. I feel like I should take notes.”

 

It’s my turn to sigh. “What, you want me to teach you how to seduce someone?” The irony is not lost.

 

“Well, look. I hate you. I really do. You had me grabbing your cock last night and then I got accused of sexually harassing you. You made me feel like an idiot in that meeting with your plans and proposals. And now I’m up in your sex den, and I’m not sure what’s happening.” She looks at me with pleading eyes. “Tell me how you get all this control. How do you do it?”

 

I think about this for a few seconds, and then take a calculated risk. “How many blowjobs have you given in your life, Tiffy?”

 

“What?” She laughs, putting her hand over her heart like the word ‘blowjob’ is an assault on her virtue.

 

“Any?”

 

“I’ve given… one,” she admits, and then averts her eyes.

 

I’m turned on again. “One? One is not enough. If you want to know how to control a man, you don’t need to look any further than your own mouth. Men are drawn to lips. Every girl they ever think about sexually starts with an image of their cock in that girl’s mouth. So if you want control, you gotta lead a guy to your mouth.”

 

She takes a deep breath. “Go on.”

 

God, why am I so annoyed that she’s asking me for pointers? I can make her do anything I want right now. I should be celebrating.

 

“Please,” she begs. “Tell me.”

I place a hand on her shoulder and push. “Get on your knees.”

Excerpt

I pulled the heavy wood door underneath the stairs open and entered the wine cellar. The walls were lined with custom shelving, filled top to bottom with an assortment of different wine bottles, the scent of the cedar heavy in the air.

 

I stopped short.

 

Jamie? What the hell was he doing in here?

 

“You following me, hot stuff?” he said with a practiced smile.

 

“Of course not! I just came to get my salad from the fridge. What’re you doing here?” I propped my hands on my hips, irritated once again to be forced into such close proximity to him.

 

“Same.” He nodded toward the fridge he was holding open. “I brought some dip.” He closed the door and leaned against it with his arms crossed over his chest. The way his muscles bunched drew my eyes to them. He pushed up and stalked toward me.

 

It wasn’t warm in here, but I suddenly felt like I was overheating, as if I was still out in the summer sun. As he moved closer, I backed up into one of the shelves, the tops of the bottles pressing into my back.

 

Finally, he came to a stop mere inches away. “Don’t you think it’s about time we addressed whatever’s going on between us?”

 

I guffawed. “There’s nothing going on between us.”

 

His gray eyes narrowed. “That’s bullshit and you know it. Why would you follow me in here otherwise?” Reaching out, he ran a finger down from the base of my throat, dragging it slowly over my heated skin to the juncture of my cleavage, then let his hand drop.

 

I didn’t stop him. Why didn’t I stop him?

 

I suppressed a small shiver and fought the urge to close my eyes, instead pinning him with a glare.

Cover Designer: Hang Le

 

Blurb:

Callie

Blood, sweat, hard work, and a disconcerting lack of tears—my entire life—was meant to culminate in a flourish of glory and significance.

I’d thought I’d always known exactly what that meant.

But I’d had the timing wrong by about three minutes.

I knew now.

This moment wasn’t everything. The one person I found myself wanting more than anything during it was.

Nik

One preconceived notion can haunt you for the entirety of your life.

I thought I owed it to myself and to everyone who’d ever backed me to do what was expected. What was right. What I was supposed to do.

But nothing is forbidden in love. Not circumstances or propriety or the denial of the object of said affection.

I knew now.

This was it.

If I wanted it, I had to take it.

This gymnastics love story is more than grips, rips, and battered hands.

For Calia Nickleson and Nikolai Bagrov, it was everything.

Lily White

Lily White is a dark writer who likes to dabble on the taboo side of eroticism. Most of the time she can be found wandering around aimlessly while her mind is stuck in some twisted power play between two characters in her head. You may recognize her in public by the confused expression, random mumbling, and occasional giggle while thinking up a scene. Lily’s favorite things in life are reading, thinking about reading, buying books for reading….and writing. Her other secret pleasure is meeting with her plot editor in public to discuss her books and watching the shocked expressions of the people around her that don’t realize she’s talking about a book. When Lily is not reading, writing, wandering or freaking out innocent bystanders, she’s sleeping.
