Latest Romance Book Releases – April 30th 2019

April 30, 2019 By Maryse 127 Comments

HAPPY NEW RELEASE DAY & HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NAY!!!! 😀 !!!!

I can’t  believe it’s the last day of April already. It feels like Christmas was just a few weeks ago. How can this be??? That’s okay… I’m loving the longer daylight hours. It’s getting hotter, but there’s nothing better than it being past 8pm and the sun is still out. I can garden!!! 😀 Or read outside as the sun very slowly sets.

Like maybe… one of THESE blurb jolters: ➔ Slow Burn (that title and Kristen Ashley means *fingers crossed* it’s got that addictive old school KA-pining that we love so much!!), Fluffy (she’s a “Fluffer” but not the kind that was being requested on Craigslist. Ooooops!!! *snort*:P ), Tangled Up in You (she’s a single mom and new in town, and he’s the cop that is recovering from being shot), Perfectly Played (two strangers meet in Vegas and have a one-night stand… and then he leaves, and leaves her a note which she doesn’t find *oooomph*)… and Under the Northern Lights (S.C. STEPHENS!!?? :D!! YES PLEASE!! Plus her plane goes down, and she’s rescued in the middle of Alaska by a reclusive man and they’re stuck together until spring…) Oh this one sounds like it’s going straight up to the top of my TBR list!! read more

Monday Early Bird Book Releases + some that are going live at midnight! 04-29-19

April 29, 2019 By Maryse 63 Comments

Good morning and Happy Monday everyone!! This weekend has been crazy awesome with the surprise early book releases, and today seems just as amazing!!! Take a look at what just went live. But first…

THREE THINGS:

1.) I’m pretty much into Billie Eilish right now. Is that weird? She’s kinda weird but holy moly, every song I hear of hers, just once… and I’m hooked. And they just get better. She’s got this… Fiona Apple/PJ Harvey/Lana Del Rey/Kate Bush feel to her. LOVE IT!!!! And come to find out, so many of in our book world (authors and readers alike) are totally into her, too. One author is even playing one of her songs on loop while she writes. Eeeeeep!!! That will be intense. read more

Robin Hill – Waiting for the Sun Duet Reading Order

April 28, 2019 By Maryse 9 Comments

 <— An angsty, old-school indie feel, “unrequited love” (just enough to hurt!!) romance from our very own R!!! WE LOVE R, and we (I!!) LOVED book #1 (in fact, here’s my review). 😀

And book #2 JUST WENT LIVE!!! Ahhhhhh sweet relief!!!! The duet is complete!!

Maryse: I just finished R’s book!!!!!! Wow. I loved it. I cried twice. <3 Great writing, and fantastic little details during conversations that made the conversations flow naturally. The characters came to life and moved as if I were watching a movie. And yes, I was so excited about the proposition and then I was all… WHAT? OH RIGHT!! GAH!!!!!! LOL! But I love that kind of “cliffhanger” because it’s not so much a cliffhanger since the end of this one essentially came to a solid conclusion… it’s just the start to part 2. 😉 I’m in! read more

J.B. Salsbury – Love, Hate, Rock-n-Roll Series Reading Order

April 28, 2019 By Maryse 1 Comment

ROCK STAR ALERT!! OMG this series sounds like SO. MUCH. FUN!!! And… book #2 just went LIVE!

About book #1:

Jesse Lee is the worst!

He’s a multi-millionaire, triple-platinum-selling, Grammy-Award-winning man-slut—a worldly, self-indulgent heathen. I wouldn’t sleep with him if he were our last chance to ensure survival of the human race. The only reason I put up with him is because he’s my boss’s brother.

Whatsherface is one of those holier-than-thou types.

She’s bossy, has a horrific singing voice, and she’s so ordinary, she practically blends in with the eggshell-colored walls—the complete opposite of anyone I’d bang. The only reason I put up with her is because my career is on the line. read more

AWESOME PSYCH-THRILLER SALE ALERT!! I read & enjoyed it, and if you love domestic psych-thrillers featuring a creepy child... this is for you!!

Tasha J: Maryse, Baby Teeth is on sale today. I thought I remembered you loving this one. I’m seeing a ton of reviews comparing and contrasting that and The Push. Some love one, some the other. Some say they’re super alike, some say no way.

Here's my review (and it's linked up to the sale price). 😀
