Anna Todd's "The Brightest Stars" release celebration giveaway!!!

By 31 Comments

The Brightest Stars
<— Okay so, it’s not live YET (it’s going live at midnight) but Anna Todd is partnering with me for a giveaway and I’m starting it early!! OMG I am IN LOVE with that bracelet (I actually have an “Alex and Ani” bracelet that I NEVER take off given to me by one of my very best friends). 😀 And the one in the giveaway (see it below) is the PERFECT one to go with this book.
AND!!!! Speaking of this book, it sounds utterly AMAZING!!! I love the angst and introspection that comes with the plight of a military hero (and the heroine that loves him), and this one gave me a blurb jolt, BIG TIME!

…That’s when she meets him—a closed book she’s desperate to open.
 At just twenty, Kale is a handsome, brooding soldier struggling with the aftermath of two tours in Afghanistan. He’s emotionally damaged and closed off. Quiet doesn’t begin to describe him. But as Karina gets used to his stable presence, she finds it hard to ignore the way he makes her feel. In their time together, she finds the stillness she has always wanted and never found. She lets down her guard…

Yep!!! This one’s for me! 😀
Here’s the whole synopsis:

Karina knows the harsh realities of military life. And like anyone who has grown up around an army base, she knows the background noise that follows a soldier home from war. That’s why she’s forging her own quiet life in her own little house. But she hasn’t turned her back on her family. She’s the glue that holds them together—when her father is deployed, when her brother, Austin, has another brush with the law.
Karina knows that she has to look after herself, that she can’t always fix what’s broken. But when Austin’s behavior worsens and her father’s reactions grow more extreme, Karina feels her own edges beginning to fray. That’s when she meets him—a closed book she’s desperate to open.
At just twenty, Kale is a handsome, brooding soldier struggling with the aftermath of two tours in Afghanistan. He’s emotionally damaged and closed off. Quiet doesn’t begin to describe him. But as Karina gets used to his stable presence, she finds it hard to ignore the way he makes her feel. In their time together, she finds the stillness she has always wanted and never found. She lets down her guard. And she lets herself fill in the blanks about this mysterious man.
But illusions quickly made are quickly shattered. That’s when Karina has to find her own courage—to untangle the truth from the lies, and decide what she’s going to do about it.
A riveting story about the love and lies, THE BRIGHTEST STARS will stay with you long after the last page has been turned.

Now for the giveaway 😀 !!

Leisa Rayven – Masters of Love Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

Leisa Rayven’s latest and book #2 JUST WENT LIVE!!!
About book #1:

Max Riley is the man of your dreams. Or at least he will be, for a price.
As his alter-ego Mister Romance, Max is a drop-dead gorgeous escort who makes romantic fantasies come to life. No sex, just swoon-worthy dates to die for, and the cream of New York’s socialites can’t get enough.  Whether they want a dominating billionaire, bad boy with a heart of gold, hot geek, sexy biker, or best friend who loves them from afar, Max can make it all happen, but he’s careful to keep his real identity a secret.
Enter investigative journalist Eden Tate. Having caught wind of the urban legend of Mister Romance, Eden is determined to publish a scathing expose on Max and his ability to swindle lonely society women out of their fortunes.
Desperate to protect his anonymity and his clients, Max challenges Eden to give him three dates. If she doesn’t fall in love with him, she can run her story with his blessing. If she succumbs to his charms, the story dies.
Cynical Eden has no doubt she can resist his fake romance personas, but when the real Max admits he’s falling for her, she has to decide if the professional liar is telling the truth, or if the passionate man with the mysterious past is just one more character designed to con her out of her career-making story.

 

Lauren Blakely – Heartbreakers Series Reading Order

By 1 Comment

LAUREN BLAKELY ALERT!! Sexy (rock star!!) series, with two more books already up for preorder and coming out soon and each one can be read as a standalone.
About book #1:

That smoking hot one-night stand with a former rock star? Turns out he’s my son’s new music teacher. Oops.
But I didn’t know that the night I met Campbell. All I knew was he played my body the same way he played a guitar — like he owned it.
My libido is still high-fiving me after being self-served for too many years, and we’re both ready for another night or two of fun, especially since we don’t just have chemistry in bed — we connect over everything.
That is, until I learn he’s the man who’ll be coming to my house twice a week to teach my son — the best music lessons money can buy. Time to turn down the volume on our shenanigans. Only that’s easier said than done.
***
I can rock a guitar solo in front of thousands, I can write chart-topping tunes, and I can absolutely stop thinking about my student’s mother naked. After all, I’m a single parent too, and I know what it’s like to put your kid first. That’s what I do every damn day.
Trouble is, now that I’ve had Mackenzie, it’s hard — and I do mean hard — to stop wanting her. Harder too when I get to know her, and learn she’s an awesome mom, a great friend, and, oh yeah, she happens to get along perfectly with my daughter.
All we have to do is set some rules. No dating, no nookie when the kids are around, and no one gets hurt. It’s all working out beautifully. Until we start breaking the rules, one by one.
Making music with her in the bedroom is easy. But will we be more than just a real good time when the music stops?

By 85 Comments

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! Now THIS is what I call a Friday list. :D!!! The amount of awesome-sounding new books that just went live in the last 24 hours rivals’s this week’s new release list, BIG TIME!! And of course, reader recommendations for those that want tried-and-true.
I hope everyone in the path of the hurricane will be safe, and maybe we can all hunker-down and read together. I read so much during the last hurricane and it helped me a lot (the characters kept me company). This time, I’m not in the path, but I know many who are, so I worry.
TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT WE FOUND FOR THE WEEKEND :D !!

  • Muse by Katy Evans <— LIVE!!! KATY EVANS OMG ULTIMATE SERENDIPITOUS FAMOUS ACTOR FANTASY ALERT!! She missed her flight… and he did too. “…I ended up at the airport, heading home in the same condition that I arrived. In a rut. Add to all that, missing my flight and losing my laptop—the laptop, where the Best Love Story Ever sat on my hard drive. Enter Noah Steele. Eerily familiar. Movie star. Heartthrob. Sultry romeo with bedroom eyes. (But we’re not going there.) He missed his flight too...”
  • No Tomorrow by Carian Cole <— LIVE!! BLURB JOLT ALERT!! CARIAN COLE ROCK STAR ROMANCE & IT’S ALREADY TRYING TO BREAK MY HEART!!! He once broke her heart… “…You can’t go back, but I want to.

Before he shattered my heart.  I thought I knew everything about him. But I could not have been more wrong. He promised me every tomorrow. And here I am, waiting. And hoping.  Again.”
  • Bewitched And Bewildered by Alanea Alder <— Ji-Aara is now HOOKED and loved this paranormal rom-com!!
Ji-Aara: I just love bewitched and bewildered. When I first read My commander I thought it was absolutely ridiculous, but I completed the series and am waiting for more. I have to say, Alaena Alder’s Bewitched and Bewildered series have ruined me. I can’t finish my other books.
  • Drilled: (Hard ‘n Dirty Book 7) by Ava Sinclair <— LIVE!! RICH GIRL & HE WORKS FOR HER FATHER…” …If her oil baron father finds out, losing my job will be the least of my worries.

She will finally get relief *snort* 😛 AND WE get to dive in!!!

Jennifer: This one is most definitely NOT fairytales and rainbows. It’s hard and sad and brutal with bits of sweet mixed in. If someone is looking for a happy read….this is NOT it! But man oh man it’s so gripping ….. I can’t seem to put it down.
and then…
Jennifer: I’m in tears, my heart is racing and now I have to wait until September 13th for the sequel. UGH. I’m dying….. These authors are killing me with these cliffhangers. This book RIPPED my heart out of my chest, put it in a blender then attempted to piece it back together alllllllll to be ripped to shreds again with A FRIGGIN CLIFFHANGER! I need a blood pressure pill, vodka tonic and electroshock therapy IN THAT ORDER!

  • To Love Again by Andria Large <— LIVE!!! M/M ROMANCE ALERT! HE’S ESCAPING HIS ABUSIVE EX… “…England was supposed to help Jack get away from his ex and find himself again.

Loving Jack may be the one thing I can’t fix.”

Crave her. She was my way out, now she’s my downfall…”
  • Keep Her Safe: A Novel b K.A. Tucker <— PSYCH-THRILLER WITH TWISTS & SECRETS!!! Theresa can’t put it down (and I can’t wait to read this!)
Theresa: Reading Keep Her Safe by K A Tucker of course. I don’t want it to end but can’t read fast enough. It has so many twists and secrets. I can’t think of a thing that the book does not have in it for a perfect read. You must read every word or you might miss an important word or clue so slow read for me. I have been impatiently waiting for Simple Wild so must get this finished. Ahhh, too many books so little time lol.

Amy: All the Little Lights by Jamie McGuire is on sale…can’t go wrong with a JM book. 😉

  • That Thing You’re Good At (A Starview Novel Book 1) by Isabell Lawless <— LIVE!!! SOUNDS CUTE & CRAZY (Ex-pro hockey player turned cop, and speed-dating?) but anyway… stuff. That blurb has a ton going on and I don’t know WHICH part to highlight. I say read it and see for yourself. 😉

  • Marry Me (Lyrics and Love Book 1) by Samantha Lind <— LIVE!! SHE’S GETTING MARRIED BUT STILL LOVE HIM… “…Sam was always my constant. My rock. My best friend. That feeling, the one I only got around him, had never been matched by another man.

Jan: …a very popular HR that I’m FINALLY getting around to reading: The Madness of Lord Ian MacKenzie by Jennifer Ashley. One of those everyone’s-read-it-except-me. It’s really good so far. The H is a hot Scot who seems to be somewhere on the Aspergers scale, and in the past was committed to an asylum for his supposed ‘madness’. Sounds like an unlikely premise for a HR, but it’s very well written and has been hugely popular.

  • Hard Rock Kiss by Athena Wright <— LIVE!! ROCK STAR ALERT!!! “…From the minute we met, I knew there was something more to him. Every brush of his lips, every touch of his skin, makes my body, heart and soul sing. It’s not just physical. In those moments we share together, I know he cares for me. Just like I’m beginning to care for him. But there’s a secret I’m keeping from him. A secret that will change everything. A secret that could ruin his dreams, his future...”
  • Beautiful Lies (The Beautiful Series Book 2) by Emery Rose <— SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE ALERT!! “…Once upon a time, my foolish heart believed that my love would be strong enough to fix him. How very wrong I was. We soared to the greatest heights and crashed to the lowest depths together. Starting over wasn’t possible. Yet here he was, heart in hand, asking for another chance. Only a fool would agree. But when it comes to Connor, I’ve always been a fool…”
  • Brokenhearted by Bella Emy <— LIVE!!! INTRIGUING…?? “…Bruce, demands a divorce and she is left utterly brokenhearted. She’s completely devastated and fears she cannot go on.

I agree to sign the contract on one condition: they hire New England’s reigning queen of media to call the shots...”
