Crave by Shanora Williams

Release Date: December 14th, 2017

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Designer: Jersey Girl & Co.


Every Sunday morning it’s just us in a fancy hotel suite.
We fight, argue, and make up like teenagers do.
We touch, we suck, but we don’t kiss.
No, we never kiss.
His lips have been all over my body - everywhere but on top of mine.
I wasn’t supposed to need his touch.
To beg for a kiss . . . just one little kiss.
But our little arrangement has swallowed me whole.

I only crave one thing, but I know he’ll never give it to me.
Because the only way he’ll kiss a woman is if he loves her.
And my playboy boss will never love me.

Kaylin McFarren
Series: Threads Book 4
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Publisher: Creative Edge Publishing LLC

The only thing sweeter than a secret is revenge
Twisted Threads
A family becomes an assassin's target after a crime lord's sister is brutally murdered in Kaylin McFarren's latest erotic, psychological thriller, Twisted Threads.
Akira Hamada, a beautiful Japanese geisha, failed at killing Kaito Mitsui two years ago - the same yakuza gang leader who destroyed her lover and forced her to become an assassin. Now, with his sister's murderer traveling to the Caribbean on a cruise ship, Akira has ten days at sea to identify her target and complete her assignment as her penance, or face her own death.
Devon Lyons, unaware that his aunt and uncle could be singled out and murdered, brings Akira into their lives. In searching for evidence to justify Mitsui's revenge, she soon discovers that no one is who they seem to be. All the while, Devon is drawn into the mystery of mounting deaths on board the ship, putting his own life at risk.
With killers on the loose and no avenue for escape, tension is ratcheted to a breaking point, forcing everyone to choose between love and loyalty - or deeply held honor - in order to survive.

Heartthrob is a sweet romantic comedy. I seriously loved, loved, loved the heroine. She is all balls to the wall.

Penny Pollack works in risk analysis and financial projection, she likes numbers. She prefers to play it safe, with work, with life, with clothing. She thought she was doing the right thing by being carful, being responsible but she was getting nowhere. So when her childhood friend, who she had made arrangements to marry at twenty-five, asks her to be his fake girlfriend she decides to take the risk.

Jax Hawthorne needs to clean up his image. He needs a fake girlfriend to convince the press that he's in a serious relationship because he's up for a really big, important part in a movie. Penny fits the bill.

It doesn't take long for the fake relationship to turn real. But can Jax move past his friendship philosophy? Penny is a no holds barred fake girlfriend. She stands up for Jax when he needs it most. But also knows when to move on. The characters are relatable. It's easy to get lost in this story. 5 Stars!

 Excerpt

Book Review: Holiday for Hire by Laurelin Paige & Kayti McGee

Holiday for Hire

After Jane Osborne is unceremoniously dumped by a rich man, and then invited to his Christmas Eve wedding, she decides to hire a date from Craigslist and pass him off as an upgrade.

Fake-boyfriend for hire Ian Brooks ends up being a delightful surprise—and a mysterious stranger she's definitely met before.

Could he be her Christmas wish come true?













This is a short holiday romance. I'm not sure about this one. Usually I love holiday romance novellas but I wasn't able to relate to the heroine even a little.  She was overtly logical and somewhat vindictive. Love was no more than a contact. When her last relationship failed and she's invited to his wedding, she hires a date. She plans on sculpting him to her standards. She soon discovers that there is more to life beyond social standings. 3 Stars

SYNOPSIS
You’ve heard this story before. Woman feels her biological clock ticking and gets someone to knock her up.
Not for love, for baby.
Crazy, right?
That’s what I thought.
Then I found out my fiancé had a vasectomy. The life I thought I had? Nope. Suddenly I’m 33, and I don’t even have a kissing buddy.
When my mom’s health takes a turn and I wind up back in my hometown of Fate, Alabama, I tell myself to leave things up to…well, you know.
Then I see Gabriel McKellan. He’s Fate’s most famous son, a bestselling author who is beautiful, complicated, and living just below me. In addition to his plus-sized brain, Gabe’s well-endowed in other ways, and great in bed to boot. I would know. He's my ex husband.
When I suggest The Plan, I don't imagine that he'll take the bait. It's been ten years, and we don't work. But Fate has other plans for both of us.




EXCERPT
I veer into the bushes, heading across the lawn toward the home’s rear right, where there’s supposed to be a staircase tacked onto the house’s back side.

“Not your walkway,” he says coolly.

“Figured that out,” I snap over my shoulder.

Hurt stings my cheeks and neck, prickles tears in my eyes. I whirl. “You are such an asshole! Always were. The biggest jerk in our class!”

“What was it, then, Marley?” He takes a long stride down the walkway toward me. “Oh, wait, I remember.” He looks pointedly down, and then back up at me with those electric eyes—and I know what he’s meaning.

“Jesus—you’re a pig!”

He smirks. “Only for you.”

“Fuck off.”

With those ungraceful words, I march toward the house I’m sharing with my ex-husband.

I like ice in my whiskey and virgins on their knees.
Sly
Aside from my whiskey collection and back alley brawling, virgins are my secret guilty pleasure.
People can judge me all they want, but I don't care.
Not when I was the street rat they walked by with their noses turned up.
Not when I had to talk with my fists to stay alive.
My life on the streets made me what I am today.
Cold.
Heartless.
Callous.
A sadistic bastard.
It all plays out in my bed, and the world can't get enough of it on stage.
They just don't know that I was all of that and more, long before I decided to hide behind this image.
Then I meet Emmy.
The only thing hotter than her temping curves and mile long legs is her smart mouth that was made for sin.
And when I find out she's a virgin, it's game over. Emmy belongs in one of two places: in my bed or on her knees.
I'm supposed to keep my distance. Because of who she is, I shouldn't cross the line, but she's the thing I desire most.
I just hope she realizes there won't be a happy ever after with me.
You can't fall in love when there's venom where your heart should be.

Cover Reveal: Bad Dad by Sloane Howell


cover reveal.JPGAP 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.
