Happy EARLY BIRD Monday and happy big new release-day Eve!!!! 😉 It’s going to be a good one.
In fact, one that so many of us have been waiting for (and one that I just finished a review copy of) will be going live soon and I can assure you, it too, was awesome. The Brightest Sunset (The Darkest Sunrise Duet Book 2) by Aly Martinez <— I pretty much read it in one day, could barely out it down, and had my heart in my throat the entire time. Yes. This book, and the entire duet is an easy 5 stars!!!!
My review for #2 is UP, but here’s the short form of the review. 😉 It’s a must read, you won’t be disappointed, and it’s just as intense and intoxicating and emotionally nerve wracking as the first one. :D!!! If you haven’t started the duet yet, now’s the perfect time, ’cause the wait is over!! In fact, in case you missed it, here’s my review of book #1 ➔ Book Review – The Darkest Sunrise by Aly Martinez.
And don’t even get me started on how excited I am over Rachel Higginson’s new release (The Difference Between Us: An Opposites Attract Novel) that is going live at midnight too. Aly and Rachel are two of my absolute favorite authors in the world, so I’m jumping right into hers, next. 😀
But that’s not the only excitement for the day, because take a look at the…
EARLY BIRDS THAT JUST WENT LIVE RIGHT NOW!!!!!
Mara White – Maldeamores Series Reading Order
FORBIDDEN LOVE ALERT!!!! AND OMG the blurbs indicate the real kind of forbidden!!! P.S. Book #2 was JUST RELEASED!!
Maryse: MARA WHITE’S LATEST IS LIVE ALERT!!! Oooooh this blurb gives me the impression that this is a FORBIDDEN LOVE story!!
Natasha: Yes it is. The first book was meant to be a standalone but it never had a proper HEA. So she wrote this book for the people who needed it. And yes, Maryse, it’s super forbidden.
Maryse: *rubs hands together with glee*
Val: I read the first a few weeks ago! Forbidden and really great. Highly recommend. I am excited for this.
Amy: …a nice touch of angst because of the (slightly) forbidden factor. FUN!!
Nicole: Maldeamores by Mara White is really amazing!
Book Review – The Darkest Sunrise by Aly Martinez
The Darkest Sunrise (The Darkest Sunrise Duet Book 1)
INCREDIBLE!!! Absolutely, unputdownably incredible!!!!! It’s intense, romantic, shocking, deep, funny, and so real. I devoured this one, and gasped at that jaw-dropping moment that had me clapping with glee, delighting in the trouble that was about to ensue!
And oh boy am I embarking upon it, ’cause this is a duet and there’s a HUGE reason for that! This story could not be told in just one book.
Maryse: I just want to announce that I’m ABSOLUTELY in love with this book. This author always manages to rock my world (her characters and stories are wonderfully multi-faceted, and this one had my jaw dropping. I LOVE where it went…

SATURDAY MORNING BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!!! Wheeeeeee!!!!
Look what latest book by Stephen King just went on super-sale!!!! ➔➔➔➔➔ Gwendy’s Button Box!!! I one-clicked it SO HARD! Omg that blurb gave me the heebie-jeebies and it has awesome reviews. “One day, a stranger calls to Gwendy: “Hey, girl. Come on over here for a bit. We ought to palaver, you and me.” On a bench in the shade sits a man in black jeans, a black coat like for a suit, and a white shirt unbuttoned at the top. On his head is a small neat black hat. The time will come when Gwendy has nightmares about that hat…” ![]()
<— HAPPY FRIDAY FINDS DAY!!! A few just went live, and I have some great recommendations (including some feedback on a few recent releases). 😀
Okay I’m staring us off with my VERY OWN recommendation. The Darkest Sunrise (The Darkest Sunrise Duet Book 1) <— This is a MUST READ!!! It is… everything!!!
Reader Question – The series about the three male friends that own a strip club…
Tracie’s question is short and sweet, but considering the subject matter, I have no doubt this is one that has been read by some in our book-crew for sure! 😉 *waggles eyebrows*
She hasn’t read it yet, but she wants to!!
Tracie asks:
I’m trying to find a series of books that has 3 male friends that own a strip club?
I read a blurb, but i didn’t write it down, it sounded so good!
Stumped!!!
Anyone?
Lauren: Are they also escorts? I’ve read one with 3 friends that own a club but they were escorts.
