Liz Crowe – Stewart Realty Series Reading Order

October 27, 2012 By Maryse 7 Comments

This series has come up a few times as a “What to Read after Fifty Shades” option:

Christine: I don’t think I have seen this series posted before but wanted to recommend the Realtors Series by Liz Crowe. Not only is she a great writer who is so personable and answers all questions but she has created a to die for series that I can not get out of my head! The character development is amazing and you feel like you really know who they are and what they are feeling. All totally relatable! I have not felt this way since 50 and Bared to You! read more

Kelly Favor – For His Pleasure Series Reading Order

October 18, 2012 By Maryse

Another “short story” erotica/bdsm series that I’ve been hearing about, that seems to follow one specific couple. The reviews are… all over the place, but it would appear the reviews get better as the story progresses. Many mentioning/comparing this series to Fifty Shades and the Crossfire (Bared to You) series. A “what to read” if you’re looking for more like that (and then again, some of the more negative reviews also comparing, but on a less enthusiastic note). I am curious… after all, I LOVE Fifty and Gideon. I’d love to find another similar (and worthy) indulgence! read more

<— REMEMBER THIS MUST-READ forbidden romance (student-teacher) classic from back in our early indie days??? Well, they’re making a movie and book #4 will be out soon!!!! 😀

What our fellow readers are saying (Gabriel’s books are so often recommended and he is so very loved!!):

Annie: OK – dying to know what you think of this book – I absolutely loved it and the next one as well – Gabriel’s Rapture.

Jo: I now have another man in my life Professor Gabriel Emerson, he’s a well respected Dante specialist by day, but boy does he have a dark side. read more

Book Review – Reflected In You by Sylvia Day

October 4, 2012 By Maryse 41 Comments

Reflected in You: Book #2 in the Crossfire Series (see my review for book#1 – Bared To You, if you haven’t read this yet. I recommend THIS series as the perfect read after Fifty Shades of Grey. Or just… the perfect read. 😉

Finally!!! It feels like I’ve been waiting ages for this and the day finally came! Annnnnd…. went. *sigh* Yes. I devoured this one practically in one overnight sitting and I have a feeling I read it way too fast. I couldn’t help myself. I gorged on Gideon! I was a Gideon glutton. *blush* (too much?) Tee hee! read more

Congratulations on publishing your book! Your book deserves to reach the right readers, spark curiosity, and leave a lasting impression. But with so many books competing for attention, how can you make yours stand out, attract potential readers, and encourage more people to discover your story? A captivating book trailer can help make that happen. Imagine turning your book into a short, engaging video that brings your story to life, highlights its most intriguing elements, and gives readers a reason to want to know more. A well-crafted book trailer can help increase your book’s visibility, build excitement, and encourage potential readers to explore it further. We help authors create professional book trailers designed to capture attention, generate interest, and connect their stories with the right audience. I’d love to show you a few examples and share how a book trailer could help showcase your book. Would you be open to seeing some examples?
