EXCERPT

He remembered the shock and the beginnings of anger rolling through him when he walked into the apartment and heard the porn he had been watching the night before blasting from all the way down the hallway.

Who the fuck was in his room putting their hands on his shit?

In hindsight it was a pretty stupid question. Who else was there during the day but Nicole? Nicole was in his room rummaging through his things! He never pegged her for the type that would be so disrespectful of someone’s personal space. And she was watching the porn he’d used the night before to get off. How fucking embarrassing. His day had already been shitty and his fuse was already short.

He was just starting to storm down the hallway, prepared to confront her, when he heard it.

That moan.

It happened so fast and it was mingled with the sounds of the girl on the DVD. But as soon as he

heard it something low in his body stirred.

She couldn’t be….she wouldn’t be…

“Gabriel! Fuck me, Gabriel!”

He felt his whole body rush with a heat that had nothing to do with the weather he had just

escaped. His eyes were focused on the floor as if he could hear her better if he didn’t stare down the hallway towards his room. He realized he was moving, and then he realized he was purposefully keeping his footsteps quiet, slowing his breathing so it didn’t interfere with the sound of his bed moving or the sound of Nicole’s moans. She was moaning in between high-pitched gasps that made his cock twitch. He could hardly believe she was masturbating in his room to his porn, let alone that she was obviously thinking about him. And the hunger in her voice nearly killed him.

He approached the edge of the door, peaking around the side as slowly as possible. The door was wide open, the TV clearly visible. The girl on screen was getting pounded from behind. There would be a come-shot soon, he knew because he had seen it. Even though he felt himself responding to the quick flash of images on the screen he was more concerned with the hand gripping a metal rung on his bed, with the glimpse of dark hair coming into view. He nearly gasped and retreated when she turned her face in his direction. But then he saw her eyes were closed tight, her lips were parted and her breath was labored. Her body was moving her back and forth on the bed, her left arm jerking quickly against her side. He had to hold his breath to keep from groaning out loud when she bit her lip and moaned, pressing her forehead against his mattress.

She was close.

“Gabriel,” she whimpered, and he wondered if he would have heard her if he hadn’t been able to see her. He was moving without even realizing it, almost as if he wanted her to find him watching. A strangled cry escaped her throat and her hand moved faster, her hips rolling under that skirt. It was the only thing she was wearing and something about just barely being able to see her full ass peeking out from underneath it, made his cock vibrate with need. Her back looked so smooth and soft, her wide spread thighs making his hands ache to feel her skin under his fingertips. He could only see a sliver of her breasts every time she rolled into the fingers hidden and smacking against the sensitive flesh under her skirt. He didn’t remember ever wanting to see a girl’s pussy so bad, didn’t remember being so turned on with so little to work with. He watched her moan, watched her shake and come. He watched and he listened, and he could almost feel an invisible curtain drop to reveal the real Nicole to his gaze.

A powerful shiver coursed through her that his body echoed, and a little laugh escaped her lips.

She sat up and his throat was suddenly so dry it felt like he was swallowing sandpaper. Her breasts were full, round, and the dark chocolate nipples pointed high. They swayed softly as she lifted her hand to run her fingers through her hair. He watched the place where her fingers were still hidden under her skirt and he watched the skirt shimmy over her thighs as she continued to rock her hips over those fingers. Her eyes flitted over the screen for a second, and then she pulled those fingers out of her skirt, smiling as if she had done something very bad and gotten away with it. She brought them up to her face, inhaling her own scent quickly, and then dabbed her finger lightly over her full bottom lip.

The moment her tongue darted out over her lips to taste what she had done, he made his decision.

He was going to fuck her.

Synopsis

Nicole Langley’s #1 Crush has always been Gabriel Roberts, but settling for being a friendly acquaintance has had to be enough.

Gabriel has always seen Nicole as his good friend’s very pretty, but extremely off limits baby sister.

Then a hot summer day and an even hotter discovery pushes them over the lines of friendship, over the lines of unrequited desire, and into each other’s arms.

Will they indulge and move on? Or will this crush turn into something more, something deeper? Something that leaves loose ends begging to be tied…

#1 Crush is book one in the Loose Ends series. Each book is a full novel and the series will conclude with book three.

Review 

Crush is one steamy, exotic read! If I read this book in public, there would be no doubt by my facial expressions that a passerby would know what genre I was reading! I mean, holy smokes, 5%, now that’s a way to start a book Ms. Bennett!

Now this story is different than the forbidden love of a best friend’s sibling. This book had flashbacks to show the moment they had met,  the moment when Gabriel offers his brotherly advice, and just the overall friendship before sex became involved. Nicole Langely is the little sister of Jackie. And it just so happens that Gabriel, her childhood crush, is a roommate of Jackie’s. A crazy embarrassing moment for Nicole occurs and was just enough of an icebreaker to nab Gabriel. Flashbacks, dual point of view and erotic sex scenes are key elements in Crush. Chemistry is definitely there with these two and it’s pretty freaking hot! If you’re in the mood for something sizzling hot, I suggest you pickup Crush! 4 smooches!

About ASA:

Starting over in Denver with a whole new circle of friends and family, Asa Cross struggles with being the man he knows everyone wants him to be and the man he knows he really is. A leopard doesn’t it change its spots and Asa has always been a predator. He doesn’t want to hurt those who love and rely on him, especially one stunning arresting cop who suddenly seems to be interested in him for far more than his penchant for breaking the law. But letting go of old habits is hard, and it’s easy to hit bottom when it’s the place you know best.

Royal Hastings is quickly learning what the bottom looks like after a tragic situation at work threatens not only her career but her partner’s life. As a woman who has only ever had a few real friends she’s trying to muddle through her confusion and devastation all alone. Except she can’t stop thinking about the sexy southern bartender she locked up. Crushing on Asa is the last thing she needs but his allure is too strong to resist. His long criminal record can only hurt her already shaky career and chasing after a guy who has no respect for the law or himself can only end in heartbreak.

A longtime criminal and a cop together just seems so wrong . . . but for Asa and Royal, being wrong together is the only right choice to make.

BLURB:

 

Grace Shaw is on the run from her crazy ex-boyfriend who refuses to believe their relationship is over. He’s a cop and is willing to use police resources
to track her down. So Grace comes up with a plan and tricks his fellow brothers in blue into thinking crying wolf a couple of times when he’s reported her
missing. Little does she know she’ll go running into the arms of a real wolf when she finally makes her escape for real.

 

She just wants to be left alone, but then she meets Hunter Tate – the alpha of the Black River Pack. Grace tries to hold Hunter at arm’s length, but
there’s just no reasoning with an alpha male werewolf who insists she’s his mate.

This is book one in the Black River Pack series. Each novella will feature a different couple.

Excerpt:

Then a pure, sweet scent drifted my way and my wolf wanted to know where it was coming from so he could roll around in it. Parker was looking over my
shoulder with a welcoming smile on his face. A growl crept up my throat at the flirty gleam in his eyes as I turned to see who had caught his attention.

She was the opposite of any woman I’d ever fucked in the past. Everything I’d thought I would never want. Her tiny frame looked practically breakable by
human standards, let alone a wolf’s. I had to be at least a full foot taller than she was and more than a hundred pounds heavier. She looked nothing like
our she-wolves, who were tall, lithe and athletic. But even though she was small, she had curves that were just begging to be touched.

Licked.

Sucked.

Bitten.

Her full breasts strained against the red fabric of the T-shirt she was wearing, the one with my brand stretched across her chest. The only thing that even
remotely resembled the women of my pack was the long, brown hair that flowed down her back and the brown eyes that blinked up at me. But even those were
better somehow. Her hair gleamed in the sun that streaked through the windows and her eyes held a softness I was unaccustomed to seeing. They also flashed
with awareness as chemistry arced between us. I heard her breath hitch as a blush crept up her neck and spread across her cheeks.

She ducked her head for a moment and took a deep breath before she looked up again. Only this time, her gaze didn’t meet mine as she smiled over my
shoulder at my brother. The beast inside me, who’d been howling in appreciation as I’d been staring at her, quickly turned to snarling at the sight of her
smiling for another man.

About Me

I absolutely adore reading – always have and always will. My friends growing up used to tease me when I would trail after them, trying to read and walk at
the same time. If I have downtime, odds are you will find me reading or writing.

I am the mother of two wonderful sons who have inspired me to chase my dream of being an author. I want them to learn from me that you can live your dream
as long as you are willing to work for it.

When I told my mom that my new year’s resolution was to self-publish a book in 2013, she pretty much told me “About time!”

Review

“But even though she was small, she had curves that were just begging to be touched. Licked. Sucked. Bitten.”

This being only my second shifter book I wasn’t sure how I would feel about it! But I have to admit, I really really enjoyed it. Wolves make some of the best Alphas and I am a super sucker for an Alpha Male! I love the intsta-connection that they feel and the fact that they are even more alpha-licious than the normal alpha-male really get me excited!

“I’d already claimed her as mine. She was just going to be the last one to know it.”

Grace is on the run from an abusive ex and she is keeping all this hidden from her new boss and super sexy bar owner, Hunter. Hunter, unknown to Grace is the Alpha of the Black River Pack and from the moment he meets Grace he is sure she is his mate. I LOVE how strong these shifters feel for their mates and how protective they are. Why does it get me so excited when at the first drop of trouble they have their women moved in and under their watch all the time. Hunter is no different and when it seems like Grace’s secret past is finally catching up to her he takes that opportunity to move her in and take over the situation. But when is he going to let her know about the depth of his feelings and the truth of who or what he really is?

“Don’t worry about me, Gracie-mine. There’s nothing here that can harm me.”

This was my second book by Rochelle Paige and I am completely convinced that she gives good Alpha and being an Alpha Whore I am only too excited to read more from her and after enjoying this book I look forward to more from this new paranormal series by her as well. My only qualm with this book was that it was a novella, I enjoyed it so much I wish there was even more. But even with the shorter length I felt the story was well developed and full. No cliffy and a wonderful HEA!

***The powerful continuation of the story that began in Reclaiming the Sand- a tale of love and forgiveness and learning to over come a past that has come to define you.***

Bully and Victim

Friend and Lover

Past and Future

Ellie McCallum and Flynn Hendrick’s story was as painful as it was devastating. But they were able to find within each other an unlikely yet beautiful love. Despite the obstacles that tried to keep them apart.

And together they rose out of the ashes of their tragic history.

Now years after their life changing reunion Ellie is back in Wellston, having just

graduated from college and ready to start her future with the man who taught

her how to love. However, returning to a town that held so much bitterness and

anger was the last place she wanted to start over.

But for Flynn, who is now an art professor at the community college and firmly rooted

in the place that gave them their beginning, she’d do just about anything.

Yet it’s difficult building a life when you’ve only just learned how to live.

And love, no matter how strong, doesn’t always conquer all.

 

Ellie and Flynn must learn how far they are willing to go to stay together. Or whether the ghosts of the past will consume

them both.

 

Because finding a happily ever after is harder than it seems. Particularly when you’re

fighting against the one thing that could destroy you.

 

 

 Check out our 4 Smooches Review HERE!

From the New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author of Find You in the Dark and Bad

Rep comes a story of forgiveness, redemption and finding love in the most

unlikely of places.

*THIS IS A STANDALONE WITH NO CLIFFHANGER!*
Bully and victim.
Tormenter and tormented.
Villain and hero.

Ellie McCallum was a bully. No connection to anyone or anything. A sad and lonely

existence for a young woman who had come to expect nothing more for herself.

Her only happiness coming from making others miserable.

Particularly Freaky Flynn.

Flynn Hendrick lived a life completely disconnected even as he struggled to become

something more than that boy with Asperger’s. He was taunted and teased,

bearing the brunt of systematic and calculated cruelty, ultimately culminating

in a catastrophic turn of events that brought Ellie and Flynn’s worlds crashing down.

But then Flynn and Ellie grew up.
And moved on.

Until years later when their paths unexpectedly cross again and the bully and the

freak are face to face once more.

When labels come to define you, finding yourself feels impossible. Particularly for

two people disconnected from the world who inexplicably find a connection in

each other.

And out of the wreckage of their tragic beginnings, an unlikely love story unfolds.

But a painful past doesn’t always want to let go. And old wounds are never truly

healed…and sometimes the further you try to run from yourself the closer you

come to who you really are.

The New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Contemporary and Paranormal romance including The Find You in the Dark and Bad Rep series as well as the upcoming stand alone romance, Reclaiming the Sand, and a dark new adult series for Gallery Books.

A. Meredith spent ten years as a counselor for at risk teens and children. First

working at a Domestic Violence/Sexual Assault program and then later a program

for children with severe emotional and mental health issues. Her former clients

and their stories continue to influence every aspect of her writing.

When not writing (or being tortured with all manner of beauty products at the hand of her very imaginative and extremely girly daughter), she is eating chocolate, watching reality television that could rot your brain and reading a smutty novel or two.

Review

Ok, Chasing The Tide is a continuation of Flynn and Ellie’s story from Reclaiming The Sand. so I must insist that you read Reclaiming The Sand first because you will totally be a lost hot mess if you don’t.   Reclaiming The Sand was one of my tops reads this year.  I absolutely loved it.  I fell in love with Flynn, and Ellie too, somehow.  I was dying for more of their story!

But I know that one day I won’t need to miss you anymore because you’ll come back and find me again.

(way to leave a sister hanging, Ms. Walters!)

Chasing The Tide begins with Ellie coming back from school.  She has been away at college for a few years and true to Flynn’s word she is home simply to come back to him.

Every story has a beginning.  Flynn was mine.

Oh God, I was so happy for Ellie to be home with Flynn.  Their story in this book is a hard one.  Ellie is not crazy to be back home with so many bad memories from her past and childhood and she refuses to get help for her problems.  Living with a significant other is always hard at first but Flynn is even harder to live with and Ellie has reservations about making the jump with him even though it has already happened.  Flynn is fully committed to her and I have to say that I really enjoyed getting to read more of his ADULT point of view this time around.  Meredith does a fabulous job with Flynn.  She must have done a lot of research because Flynn’s personality rang so true to me.  He was beautiful, honest, and if Ellie could look just a little harder she could see how uncomplicated he is.

“Where’s your happy place?”

“With you,”

I really enjoyed this book.  I did love Reclaiming The Sand a bit more, but I felt like this story provided the closure and HEA  that I needed for Flynn and Ellie!  Definitely worth a read, folks!

A lost girl had met a sad, lonely boy and had found her heart.

New York Times bestselling paranormal author, Nicky—Nick—Love is anything but successful in

love. For years he’s lost himself in his writing career, but now he’s ready to

get back to his rebel-boy roots. While restoring a motorcycle at Stone’s Auto

Service, he meets the Wildcat of his dreams. She’s a shock to the system for

the romance writer who doesn’t remember a damn thing about wooing a woman.

Cool-as-ice, Catarina “Wildcat” Steele is utterly

untouchable until Nicky ignites a spark she can’t control. Their electric

attraction explodes as Nicky pursues her, but he comes bearing the baggage of a

family tragedy he’s hidden from everyone. He knows love has no guarantees.

Their passionate romance falls apart when Nicky discovers

Cat’s secret rivals his own. The truth about her past reopens Nicky’s raw

wounds and awakens a ghost he never laid to rest. He doesn’t know how to have

Cat, and now he can’t trust her. Will they be torn apart . . . or tamed by love?

EXCERPT:

 

“You get to me and I don’t want to be got

at.” Cat slung herself into the chair next to mine.

“I like getting under your skin.” Pulling her chair closer, I pinned her

legs between mine. I caressed along her neck until I cupped her face. “If you

give us a shot, I guarantee I’ll make it worth your while.”

 

She slammed her lips against mine. This kiss was volatile and urgent as

our tongues fucked against each other. I slipped back for a moment, listening

to her jarred breaths. That goddamn ponytail had to go. I freed the elastic as

she unbuttoned the shirt I’d thrown on earlier. Playing with the line of hair

down my torso led Cat to my jeans. Her palm cupped my hard cock hidden beneath

the rough fabric.

 

Fuck. FUCK!

 

Straight black sheaths of sweet smelling hair fell to her waist. “Jesus

Christ, Cat.”

My fingers spun through the silken strands. When she claimed my mouth

once more, that black velvet curtain closed around us. With one hand at the

back of her head, the other on her waist, I pulled her into me. The sweet wet

pressure of her mouth and tongue made me dizzy. Her gasps and moans were hot as

hell.

 

“Stand up for me,” I ordered.

 

When she did, I kicked her chair away. She stood between my spread legs.

Her pale blue irises were almost eclipsed by her pupils as she gazed down at

me.

 

I skimmed a knuckle along the buttons on the front of her shirt. “Any

more ink?”

“Maybe you’ll have to find out.”

 

I unbuttoned her up-to-the-throat, down-to-the-wrists top. Underneath was

a scant black bra, the cups overflowing with mounds of flesh.

 

I gave her a wicked grin. “I can’t think of anything I’d like to do more

than uncover you inch by inch.”

 

Kissing her stomach, I listened to her gasp. I worked her shirt down her

arms, leaving it bunched at the wrists by the cuffs. The flat of my hand moved

down the center of her body and back up. When I reached the front clasp of her

bra, I gave it a tug. “Can I?”

She inhaled shakily. “Yes.”

 

I unclasped the hook, and oh holy shit. Her tits burst forth. I rocked

back in my seat and stared. “Maybe not any more ink, just these beauties?”

“Nicky,” she whimpered.

 

That was the best sound on the planet, but it wasn’t to be outdone by the

sight right in front of me. I touched the very tip of one nipple, barely

holding myself in check. But fuck, I wanted to feast on her with my eyes before

I sucked on her with my mouth. Her teardrop-shaped tits were topped by

plum-colored nipples. But that wasn’t it, not by a long shot. Cat’s sexy,

dusky-colored nipples were fucking pierced. I circled one with my fingertip,

then the other. I tucked my finger into the dangling filigree decoration

hanging from one piercing and flicked it.

 

“Nicky,” she groaned, her hands digging into my hair.

 

I lifted my mouth to her, sucking a hot, pert pearl of flesh into my

mouth. Sucking it in, letting it slip out. Nibbling on the jewelry, I tugged

with my teeth it until she moaned. And because I was pretty damn sure I’d never

get enough of having my face in her tits, I moved to the other one. Licking,

tonguing, suckling. Oh yeah. The

suckling, she liked that, maybe as much as I was getting off on it. Her moans

escalated the longer I held her nipple and jewelry in my mouth, curling my lips

around her. Grunting, I moved into the deep valley between. I lapped there too.

 

 

I sat back for a moment. Her tits glistened and the color of her peaks

was even deeper. Her skin was pink from my face rubbing against her. The

piercings swayed with each of her breaths, her hips did too, silently asking

for more.

 

“Sexiest woman I’ve ever seen,” I growled.

 

I reached up and pulled her face to mine. My lips were rough on hers. She

was just as hungry, lashing her tongue into my mouth, rasping it across my

teeth and cheeks.

I let her go. I needed more of her breasts. “I’m gonna be here awhile.

You don’t mind, do you?”

 

She quickly shook her head. Her long black hair swished around her back.

Her mouth opened, but all that came out was a long low mewl. The sound set my

stiff cock right on the edge of release. I swooped down to nuzzle and tease her

some more. With my hands clasped at her waist, my thumbs circled her taut

belly, which trembled.

 

I unbuttoned her jeans. “How about this, darlin’? Is this okay?”

 

Her nails scratched across my scalp, pulling me closer.

 

I’d take that as a yes.

Carolina Bad Boys novella

January 8, 2015

 

BLURB:

The full, sexy, New Adult

version of RIDE, the novella featured in Stone, At Your Service, Carolina Bad Boys series.

College man Jase Everly

has bad boy written all over him. Rides a

motorcycle? Check. Has tats? You

bet. Couldn’t give a shit about rules? He’s

all over that.

When he’s cut off from

the oil baron family funds, he finds a new way to support his education, his

bike habit, his bad habits. And his business venture is nothing he’s proud

of.

Top-notch student Avery

Greene is a good girl. Deans List, never

missed a class, straitlaced material. She’s on the college fast track until one

night and one jock destroy her life.She

hides inside her sweaters. She buries her nose in her books.

She ignores the pain

inside her, and she’s sure she hates Jase from the moment she lays

eyes on him.

The

problem is—Avery needs someplace to stay,

and Jase wants a roommate. They’re enemies at first sight. Now they’re going to

live together.

Roomies?

Maybe.

Romance?

Never.

That’s what she said.

 

 

 

 

 

Author Bio:

 Rie is the badass, sassafras author of Sugar Daddy and the Don’t

Tell series–a breakthrough trilogy that crosses traditional publishing

boundaries beginning with In His Command. Her latest endeavor, the Carolina Bad Boys series, is fun, hot,

and southern-sexy.

 

A Yankee transplant who has traveled the world, Rie started out a

writer—causing her college professor to blush over her erotic poetry without

one ounce of shame. Not much has changed. She swapped pen for paintbrushes and

followed her other love during her twenties. From art school to marriage to

children and many a wild and wonderful journey in between, Rie has come home to

her calling. Her work has been called edgy,

daring, and some of the sexiest smut around.
