Lots of new releases todays along with plenty of great sounding bargain finds. Some “new-to-me” bad boy motorcycle club reads on this one, approx. five famous guy books (sports!! A wrestler, hockey player, football player and BMX’er, and a rock star!) <— I experienced a few blurb jolts with those. Plus plenty of angsty ones, and some sweet sweeeeeet sounding romance reads that just might cleanse our palette enough to be ready for Tuesday. Oh and a fun-sounding “coffee shop series” that had me giggling with the titles alone. I noted ’em, below. Maybe some gems on this list? *fingers crossed*.
What’s coming Tuesday, you ask? LOTS!!! Including that darkish-creepy-sexy sounding one (Alpha by Jasinda Wilder) where that girl gets those mysterious checks with one word on ’em, and it ends up saying “You. Belong. To. Me.” And THEN!!! “And then, after a year, there was a knock on my door. A sleek black limousine sat on the curb in front of my house. A driver stood in front of me, and he spoke six words: “It’s time to pay your debt.” Would you have gotten in? I did. It turns out $120,000 doesn’t come free.” <—- *eeeeeeeep!!!* MINE!! 😀 😀 😀 😀
Right?!!??
P.S. This is what I’m starting tonight —> Jahleel. It caught my eye a few weeks ago upon it’s release, and I’m getting some great feedback from our fellow crew that decided to give it a go. She sees him, goes nuts for him, he doesn’t even notice her, so she gets kind of stalker-y obsessed with him… for years! <— *eeeeeeeep* Sounds FUN!!!! Anne says: “OMG, the author certainly knows how to ramp up the sexual tension!! ( and the sex scenes are hot as hell ) There is lots of angst and heaps of heartbreak – put this near the top of your TBR list Maryse, you won’t be disappointed!”
P.P.S. Let me know if I’m missing any or if you loved any (from this list or elsewhere).
NOTE: bargain priced when I added them, but prices can change on Amazon, so make sure to check before you finalize your order.

But you know… I’ve been surprised by my team-choices before, so maybe I’d like the good boy ever more?
- Falling for Autumn by Heather Topham Wood <— RECENT RELEASE! She’s “starting over” in University (bad rumors) and… “Blake Preston is precisely the type of guy Autumn wants to avoid.

He shows up everywhere around campus, offering her a no-strings attached friendship.“
- The Rock Star And The Girl From The Coffee Shop #1 by Terry Towers <— Has that “normal girl accidentally meets famous guy” angle. 😉 “Hanna is a small town girl working a mundane job at the local coffee shop.

- Choose Us by Caylie Marcoe <—- RECENT RELEASE and I just got a mini-blurb jolt!!! I think this is a delicious case of unrequited love. How did I miss this one? He’s a BMX racer that will be starring in a “Bachelor-type” reality show, and she’s his best friend/assistant. “Riley Logan and Travis Grayson have been best friends for the last fifteen years. She would do anything for him, go anywhere for him…and she has, countless times. Except now. Now he’s asking for too much.
