Author & Book News Roundup – February 12th 2017

I was riddled with jealousy, because they didn’t know that—to me—he was much more…”

NEWS #2: My latest review is up (a sort of psych-thriller romance, where SHE’S the stalker and in love with him, and she’ll do whatever it takes to get him back). It get’s a little crazy. 😉 ➔ Book Review – The Evolution of Ivy: Poison by Lauren Campbell

AND HERE’S MORE NEWS:

Bookstore Signing: Some of our favorite authors will be signing at a book store on March 18th!! Kristen Ashley, Kylie Scott AND Joanna Wylde will be at “The Ripped Bodice Bookstore” in California, and Kristen Ashley announces all of the details here, saying:

“We had a girlie writing weekend planned and we thought…we gotta hit this place!

SO WE ARE!

And we want you to hit it with us.”

Speaking of Kristen Ashley, did you know she wrote a story that will strictly be available as an audiobook only?? It’s called Complicated and USA Today released the details!

“…She’s learned from life that there are no hopes and dreams. The only thing to look forward to is peace. And that’s what she works hard to build for herself and her brother. Right up until Hix walks into her life…”

Tara Brown‘s upcoming book (Betrayers (The Devil’s Roses – Adult version Book 9) is now up for preorder and coming out soon! BUT!!!!!! There’s something special about this one. She says: “This story is only just beginning and it’s going to end with a bang. … Get this sexier version before it’s gone! It will only release for two weeks before it’s pulled and only the YA version of the Roses will be available.”

Emily Snow has a new release entitled “Distraction“, following her latest one “Friction“. No preorder yet for it, but she posted the super-sexy cover and blurb! “…She wants commitment, and she’s got a list that she’s anxious to check off. Love. Marriage. Baby (preferably twins, because two’s company). Then she meets Mateo Bailon. An attorney with a penchant for chains and kink, Mateo isn’t looking for commitment and he sure as hell doesn’t want marriage. Not again. He wants a distraction...”

E.K. Blair has a new love story coming out that’s called “Secret Lucidity” (but she’s still in “tease-mode” with us for now. 😉 She’s a psych-thriller/dare-to-go-there kind of author (like… Author Anonymous), so I can’t wait to see what she’s got in store for us with this one! And surprise!!! It’s a risqué student-teacher romance, but she does things differently. 😉 She says:

“This is, by far, my favorite book I’ve written to date! EPIC LOVE STORY!!!!! Details coming soon!”

and then…

“SECRET LUCIDITY is a student-teacher book unlike any of the others you’ve read. I’ve taken this popular trope and have put my own unique spin on it. Brace yourself for an emotionally intense ride!”

Abbi Glines just announced a surprise new release that just went live today on iBooks BUT will only be going live on Valentines Day for the rest of the online stores! Like A Memory (Sea Breeze meets Rosemary Beach).

“…Nate Finlay returns to Sea Breeze to help his fiancé open her new boutique clothing store. When the new employee walks in Nate is taken back seven years to the girl he thought he’d love forever. The one who never answered his calls or returned his text…”

Skye Warren announces a DARK anthology also coming out, just in time for Valentines Day called “My Sweet Villaintine” (tee hee!! How clever) and she says:

“Look at this gorgeous cover by By Hang Le for an anthology with Lili Saint Germain, T.m. Frazier, Callie Hart, Shari Slade, and me! This is the REALLY dark stuff!”

Tara Sivec revealed the cover and blurb of her upcoming book “Below Deck” (a rich girl and a deck hand on a yacht!) and it’ll be out in March!

Tiffanie Debartolo’s HUGE HIT “God-Shaped Hole: A Novel” is BACK!!!!! Well sorta. It’s back up for preorder. Remember when some of us were wondering where it went off to? Suddenly we couldn’t buy the ebook version. This is one of THOSE books that is on SO many favorites lists, it’s just crazy (and on my DYING-TO-READ-BUT-SCARED TBR list). LOL!!!!! Oh. And the reason it left? ’cause it was just picked up by a big publisher, and the cover was redesigned!! P.S. I jumped in and got the original paperback before I even realized it was in redesign mode. YAY ME!!! 😀

Karina Halle is releasing yet another book called “Black Hearts” in just a few days and OMG THAT BADASS COVER!!!! Seriously. “For Vicente Bernal, truth is all he’s known. The son of an infamous drug lord, Vicente was born to help run the family business, which means he’s been raised on a throne of sordid pasts and dirty laundry, violence and pride. But when Vicente stumbles across someone he’s not supposed to know about – a woman from his father’s checkered past – he sets out to California to find her behind his father’s back.”

***Black Hearts is book one of the Sins Duet, with the sequel, Dirty Souls, releasing shortly after. These books can be read as a standalone – though they are a spinoff of the Sins & Needles and Dirty Angels trilogies, you do not need to read those books in order to understand and enjoy Black Hearts and Dirty Souls as these books revolve around different characters.***

Fisher Amelie has one of the most beautiful covers in the whole wide world and this book entitled “One in the Morning” is coming out on Valentine’s Day, too! She hints: “A new installment in Jack’s and Adeline’s story… Coming #ValentinesDay#JackandAdeline #OneintheMorning”

Helena Hunting’s upcoming release (this month!!) Pucked Off (A Standalone Romantic Comedy) (The Pucked Series Book 6) also just had a sexy cover reveal. Has anyone seen it yet? BAD BOY HOCKEY STAR (and player 😉 ) has a woman that knows his secrets… and he wants to leave her but…

“…she makes it difficult, because she’s the kind of bad I deserve.

At least that’s what I believed until someone from my past gets caught up in my present. She’s all the good things in this world. She lights up my dark.

I shouldn’t want her.

But I do.

I should leave her alone.

But I won’t.”
