Author & Book News Roundup – July 29th 2018

By 19 Comments

I’m in the mood to round up some awesome book news (and that’s because, all I’m seeing on my feeds today, is exciting stuff). For example… THESE TWO awesome new releases that just went LIVE today!! 😀

  • Playboy by Katy Evans!!! <— THE LATEST BY KATY EVANS IS LIVE!!! And it CAN be read as a standalone! “...I discovered who he was: Gambler. Famous playboy. Silver-eyed player who never plays to lose. …And my best friend’s soon-to-be brother in law, Cullen Carmichael. He needed a good luck charm, I needed a distraction. So we made a gamble and set off for Vegas—but pretty soon—I was in too deep...”
  • Someone Else’s Ocean by Kate Stewart <— KATE STEWART’S LATEST IS LIVE!!! I JUST READ THIS ONE and I had a feeling it was going live today!! :D!!! Heartfelt and so good. I’ll be reviewing shortly, but I definitely recommend it. This is one of my favorite authors!

Grey: Quiet weekend around here. I am finishing my current read, then getting ready to jump into an ARC that I am SUPER stoked about. You know…since this cover screams my name. Someone Else’s Ocean by Kate Stewart, it is gorgeous and *glitter, all the glitter*. I haven’t read anything about it… I want to read the book based on the cover…period. 😆 That makes me slightly insane, right?
Nay: Someone Else’s Ocean, a new one by Kate Stewart!
Maryse: Nay I’m reading that one (Someone Else’s Ocean ARC) as we speak. 😀
Grey: Kate Stewart hit the publish button for Someone Else’s Ocean, so my guess is that it will go live on Amazon sometime this evening… read more

Pam Godwin – Trails of Sin Series Reading Order

By 2 Comments

I keep hearing about how CRAZY-INTENSE (or shocking?!) the first scene is, in this book, and I am soooooooo curious and kind of scared. WHAT? WHAT HAPPENS??!! *gasp* No. Don’t tell me!!! 😉

Brandi: Brandi: Pam Godwin has a new series the first was released on 5/1 “Knotted” I love her dark style of writing and this one was tragic, full of angst as well as dark but a beautiful love story. I could not put it down a 4.5 star for me only because I can’t wait for the next book! (Note: this is a complete standalone but will continue the storyline in the next book) read more

Lisa Renee Jones – Dirty Rich Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

STEAMY ROMANCE series (with arrogant, high-powered alphas ;)) A fairly new series by Lisa Renee Jones, each book can be read as a standalone AND!! Books #3, #4 & #5 just went up for preorder!
About book #1:

DIRTY, RICH ONE NIGHT STAND.
That’s all it was supposed to be. Her. Him. Pleasure. And then a fast goodbye. He’s a stranger. And yet, he’s not. She knows him even though he doesn’t know her.
He’s the powerful attorney, now world-renowned after coming off the trial of a century which was publicized across the country. And I’m one of the reporters that sat in his courtroom. I watched him, studied him, got to know him from afar which isn’t hard since I know his exact brand of confidence, arrogance, and wealth.
I know his type. I’ve dated his type. Which is why when I happen to come face to face with him, when sparks fly and heat simmers between us, I know what happens if I say “yes” to Reese Summer. I know he’ll taste like sin and sex, even before he kisses me. I know he’ll feel like pleasure and passion, even before he touches me. I know he’ll demand more than I wants to give, and yet, because I dare to give myself to him, the result will be deliciously hot. I know that I will not leave his bed without being utterly, completely sated.
And I know that I will leave the next morning anyway.
And so, I do. And so, he follows.
And as the chase begins my question becomes: Is Reese Summer THE one or is he really just a dirty, arrogant lie that should have stayed a one night stand? read more

By Leave a Comment

A new series by Devney Perry and book #2 just went up for preorder!! 😀 P.S. They can be read as standalones.

Linda: Reading Tattered by Devney Perry and loving it!!

About book #1:

“Thea Landry has always known her place in modern-day society. It’s somewhere just above the trash can her mother dumped her in as a newborn but below the class where much comes easy. With her tattered shoes and bargain-bin clothes, her life has never been full of glamour.
So when a rich and charismatic man takes interest, she doesn’t fool herself into thinking their encounter is anything more than a one-night stand. Months later, she’s kicking herself for not getting his phone number. Or his last name. She’s given up hope of seeing him ever again.
Until one day, years later, Logan Kendrick waltzes into her life once more and turns everything she’s built upside down. This time around, she won’t make the same mistake. She’s going to fight to keep him in her life—not for herself.
But for their daughter.” read more
