Jezebel by K. Larsen is FINALLY LIVE again! And the reason it disappeared in the first place…

July 2, 2015 By Maryse 4 Comments

Jezebel by K. Larsen <— IS it my imagination!??? It’s BACK UP my friends!!!! For some reason it was up for only a few days, BLEW READER’S MINDS and then it disappeared off of Amazon, and I have no idea why… Ohhhhh the intrigue ’cause EVERYONE seemed to have LOVED the first version.

AND NOW THE COMPANION NOVELLA IS UP TOO!!! —-> Lying in Wait: A Companion Novella to Jezebel

Amy: Maryse, don’t forget about Jezebel in the midst of this week’s bookgasms. ;) That. Freaking. Ending. I was REELING. Even if it seems slow at parts and even if you think you have things figured out, stick with it! The ending will have you saying WTF, even if you don’t ever say that, LOL!! …  I was saying yesterday that I was pretty sure I had figured out what was happening (the twist), and I even started to feel a little indifferent towards the story near the end because I was right about it, but then BA-BAM!!! What happened was so WTF to me and was so NOT the ending I was expecting. If for nothing else about it, read Jezebel for that twist. ;) read more

Reader Question – The book where she wants to learn to be a sub and the Dom that helped her online + a $10 gift card giveaway!!

July 2, 2015 By Maryse 5 Comments

“Guess the book” time! Dana needs out book help! We still need help with this reader question! We tried on Facebook, but our fellow reader said still no go, so maybe someone here knows?

She asks:

“I’ve been driving myself crazy for the past week trying to remember a book I read. Not sure when I read it, I need to start keeping a book journal.

Anyway, the book was about a woman who was interested in learning about being a submissive and had a girlfriend who was into that scene. read more

C.L. Stone – The Ghost Bird Series Reading Order

July 1, 2015 By Maryse 1 Comment

This series is L-O-V-E-D by many in our very own crew here!!!

Michelle: I have to plug it again because it really is one of my favorite series – House of Korba came out today which is the newest book in the Ghostbird series by CL Stone. They are crazy addicting… It looks like a young adult novel but especially in the later books, ramps up on mature topics and romance. It is already riske since there is one girl and 7 guys who are all into her. And the Academy part is not what you think…ie not just a school. read more

Lauren Blakely’s Sweet Sinful Nights excerpt & signed book giveaway!!

July 1, 2015 By Maryse 15 Comments

<— To celebrate Lauren Blakely’s latest book release (Sweet Sinful Nights), she has sent over an excerpt, a little note about the books, a Q&A AND a signed book giveaway!

Message from Lauren:

Dear Readers:

I am thrilled to share some exciting news with you! Many of you have been patiently waiting for SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS, the story of Brent Nichols and the woman he loves. Many of you already know Brent since he’s the younger brother of Clay Nichols, from NIGHT AFTER NIGHT….The good news is this-SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS is Book One in a new erotic romance series, Sinful Nights, written in the high-heat, high-stakes, high-glamour style of the Seductive Nights series that readers know and love, but heading in a new direction with a new family that’s full of drama, checkered pasts and dangerous life-and-death secrets.

SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS kicks off this new series with a fiery, passionate, and suspenseful story of two lovers reuniting after ten years. Each book in this series follow a new couple and will be set against the backdrop of sin, money, sex, greed, passion and love in the city of Las Vegas. Brent’s love interest is Shannon Paige, and she has three brothers. Yep, you guessed it – each of her brothers will be getting a book! And while each book in the Sinful Nights series follows a new couple, get ready for a storyline that will carry across the entire series — a story of danger, risk and high-stakes suspense.

Q&A about the Sinful Nights series:

Does this take place after the events in the Seductive Nights series?
A: Yes. This story begins one year after the final Seductive Nights book.

Can I read this if I haven’t read the Seductive Nights series?
A: Yes! You won’t miss a beat if you start with SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS. That’s why it’s Book One!

Brent is Clay’s brother. Does this mean Clay will be in SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS?
A: Why yes! He will indeed appear in a handful of scenes!

Is this series similar to the Seductive Nights series?
A: Absolutely. The hero in book one is a Nichols man! Nichols men are known for being dirty, passionate and fiercely loyal! You can also expect scorching hot sex scenes, dirty talk, high-class and glamorous settings, and passionate love. Have I mentioned the heat :)?

Now for the signed book giveaway!!

How to enter for a chance to win? Just leave a comment below and by 10pm EST, Thursday July 2nd 2015, I will randomly select ONE winner for the prize above.

The winner will be contacted and will have 48hrs to respond with a mailing address, so if you are picked, do not delay or you will lose your chance. This book will be sent to the winner directly by the author/publisher.

Giveaway open to international!

Ready for that excerpt? IT IS VERY STEAMY so NSFW or with someone looking over your shoulder that shouldn’t be… 😉

LANI LYNN VALE'S LATEST IS LIVE!! SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE WITH A BAD BOY!!!

“…we were once again reunited. Only this time in an undercover FBI investigation—me, the FBI officer, and Troup call sign ‘State’ as a military liaison. Trouble always finds him. You’d do better to run far, far away. Truer words had never been spoken.

#amazonaffiliate #CommissionsEarned #bookrelease #SecondChanceRomance

From the time Troup was a young boy, he’d been in some kind of trouble. So it only goes to show when he winds up in the FBI investigation with none other than Beckham Spurlock, his high school sweetheart, things are bound to go wrong.

Only, he has no idea how wrong until things go bad. Really, really bad…”

LIVE!!! SHE’S BEEN KILLED OFF HER SHOW & HE’S THE RECLUSIVE EX-HOCKEY STAR…

“...She needs a break, and sanctuary comes in the form of Rosemont, a gorgeous estate in California promising rest and relaxation.

#amazonaffiliate #CommissionsEarned #bookrelease #reclusivehero

Then she meets the owner’s equally gorgeous grandson, ex–hockey player and current recluse Lucian Osmond, and she sees her own pain and yearning reflected in his eyes. He’s charming when he wants to be but also secretive and gruff, with protective walls as thick as Emma’s own.

Despite a growing attraction, they avoid each other…”
