What’s it about?
Author E.L. James & Maryse at #RT15
In Christian’s own words, and through his thoughts, reflections, and dreams, E L James offers a fresh perspective on the love story that has enthralled millions of readers around the world.
Christian Grey exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined, and utterly empty—until the day that Anastasia Steele falls into his office, in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair. He tries to forget her, but instead is swept up in a storm of emotion he cannot comprehend and cannot resist. Unlike any woman he has known before, shy, unworldly Ana seems to see right through him—past the business prodigy and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian’s cold, wounded heart.
Will being with Ana dispel the horrors of his childhood that haunt Christian every night? Or will his dark sexual desires, his compulsion to control, and the self-loathing that fills his soul drive this girl away and destroy the fragile hope she offers him?
“…as anyone who has ever been in a relationship knows, there are two sides to every story. It’s been a great pleasure to return to my happy place-writing, being with Christian and Ana in their universe…”
And:
“Grey is dedicated to “those readers who asked…and asked… and asked… and asked for this,” James says.”
She announced (via THIS video) her upcoming release entitled “Foreplay Unlimited” right here on the blog (a SPINOFF for Jeanette!!!), and now here is the COVER!!!
Let’s cheer for Foreplay Unlimited!!! 😀 LOL!!! 😉 *snort* That made me laugh.
P.S. More tidbits? Kathryn told me:
Kathryn: The book I announced in your VLOG has a cover now!!!! Look!!!! I’m in cover love! Eeeek!
Maryse: HOLY MOLY That is GORGEOUS!!!
Kathryn: This book will out in August. And this is the spin-off of Sex Unlimited… although it will be able to be read as a standalone.
Maryse: It’s amazing, the blurb on the back sounds SO exciting… I love that she’s 35 and he’s in his 40’s!!!!
Kathryn: Fun fact… My husband helped me with the male dialogue/thoughts. And it was pretty comical.
Beautiful Sacrifice: A Novel (The Maddox Brothers Book 3)
Yep yep yep!!! It’s Taylor the Maddox twin’s turn, and he’s a hot and sexy fight fighter. How do I know he’s hot and sexy. Hello!!?? His last name is Maddox and he’s related to Travis and Travis has been my main book-boyfriend for 4 years now. And I’m just lucky enough to be waiting tables and he’s in MY section today. Er… I mean… Falyn. FALYN is just lucky enough. *snort* 😛
The moment Taylor Maddox is seated in Falyn’s section at the Bucksaw, she knows he’s trouble. Taylor is charming, breaks promises, and gorgeous even when covered in filth—making him everything Falyn believes a hotshot firefighter to be. Falyn isn’t interested in becoming another statistic, and for a Maddox boy, a disinterested girl is the ultimate challenge.
OH GOD I LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT!
And I LOVE pre-orders ’cause they totally DO show up at midnight. Well… I passed out waiting for it for about 20 minutes, so I only saw it on my Kindle app at about 12:20am…
Yesssss!!! And not even just on May 31st, either… like EARLY on May 31st. That’s my kind of pre-order!
Maryse: It’s LIVE!!! Or at least it downloaded to my Kindle already!! YAY ME!!! *happy dance*
Meredith: It downloaded to my kindle as well!!! So excited to read it!
Kim: It’s on mine here in Colorado! Of course it took seeing someone post a pic of their Kindle for me to check lol
Karen: I’ve so got my fingers crossed for this one. Beautiful Disaster is an absolute favourite.
Yes Karen… agreed. OMG this just might be the “one” since my true book-love Travis and his book, Beautiful Disaster. Would it be weird that I fall for his brother too? And is it any weirder that this brother has another brother. An identical twin!! ‘Cause then that’ll be THREE for me, right? *Tee hee!!!*
Maryse: *squeeee* More bad-boy books a la Jamie McGuire. Yay us!!! Lily and I want to be the Abbys for the twins!!! Lily, do you care which?
Lily: A twin of my own?! Nope, I don’t care which one you give me! Can mine like Kettle Korn?
LOL!!! We’re not picky at all. He’s a twin and he’s a Maddox and they look like Travis. Just sayin’ 😉
So I read a bit… and passed out again. GAH! Blast my inability to stay up late anymore. But I’m up and I’m ready to spend an entire day with the Maddox boys yet again. Oh I hope this one give me tummy aches, and butterflies and makes me SO jealous. Sounds torturous, but when it comes to books, you know I LOVE romance-angst torture. *fingers crossed*.
I’m going in!
P.S. UPDATE!!! LOL OMG this part had me giggling HARD!
She crossed her arms. “Now, if he is anything but a gentleman—”
“I know,” I said. “I’ll punch him in the throat.”
“Good girl,” Phaedra said, punching the air. “They hate that.”
“She’s right,” Chuck called from the kitchen. “We do!”
I LOVED this author’s latest book (The Virgin Romance Novelist by Meghan Quinn <— my review) so I was happy to find out she’s got a few other series going too. And I dunno HOW I possibly missed this “sports-star romance series” (now complete with the release of book #3). And it sounds super romance-angsty!
Cheryl: Three and Out, the final book in my Love and Sports series by Meghan Quinn will be released October 14th. Haven’t read the series yet, was waiting for it to be complete, but I love sports theme stories!
Bobbi: I just read the first two books in Meghan Quinn’s Love and Sports series. Awesome!!!! Its been a while since I have read a series that drew me in like this one has. Great characters and the story just keeps going
Cheryl: …the writing improves with each book. The H and h in book 2 & 3 remind me a little of Kiera’s relationship with Kellan and Denny in Thoughtless – she loves 2 guys and can’t decide who to pick. *not saying this series is comparable to Thoughtless series*
About book #1:
Training, playing ball and studying is Lexi’s life and it never seems to bother her until her friend, Parker Hill, points out to her that sweat pants on a Friday night while watching sappy romance movies isn’t really living up her last year in college. Lexi didn’t see the need to party since she didn’t know what the hell she was doing with her life after college but her friends wouldn’t take no for an answer. Little did she know going to the first party of the season was going to flip her world upside down.
Jake Taylor, starting quarterback for Cal U and campus heart throb spent his entire college career, partying, getting drunk and winning football games but it is all finally catching up to him. He is ready to throw in the towel of his partying days when he decides to have one more last fling. That is when he runs into the one person that could turn his life inside out.
Lexi wants nothing to do with Jake and his partying ways but after one bet gone wrong , she finds herself on a date with the annoyingly obnoxious, egotistical heart throb. Even though she wants nothing to do with him, she finds herself gravitating toward him and giving into his charm. They fall hard and fast for each other as they find love, comfort and a home. They live in their own littler world where nothing matters besides the love they share for each other.
But love isn’t enough for Lexi when she is trying to find her way after college. She slowly sinks into Jake’s shadow and finds herself clawing out of the Jake sized hole she buried herself in so she can find who she is, who she wants to be and what her future holds for her.
Fair Catch is a true love story that goes through the trials and tribulations of Jake and Lexi’s insecurities, jealousies, short comings and strong personalities. Love is one hell of a strong bond but sometimes, it’s not strong enough. Follow Jake and Lexi as they try to hold on to the love they share while they try to find themselves and find out what life is after graduation.
