Riley Smith, 25, is fresh out of her Ivy League MBA program and wants to make an impression on her employer, H & C Bank. Her first solo assignment is a fraud investigation on a business loan they made to Haymakers.

 

Even though Old Town is less than 90 minutes from New York City, Riley feels like she's stepped into another world in this remote, one-bar town. Riley can't wait to do her business and get back to the city as quickly as her sports car will take her...until she meets Cooper Wilde. He's not like the other guys in this rural town and Riley feels inexplicably attracted to him.

BLOG TOUR STOP! A PROMISE OF MORE BY BRONWEN EVANS (@TastyBookTours)

Cover(19)Blurb

 

In the second novel in Bronwen Evans’s sexy new Disgraced Lords series, two very independent souls find themselves fighting to resist a deepening passion.


When Beatrice Hennessey sets out to confront Lord Coldhurst, the notorious rogue who killed her brother in a duel, her intent is to save her family from destitution. She’s determined to blackmail the man into a loveless marriage. She’ll make the wealthy Lord Coldhurst pay for the rest of his life. But while greeting his ship, Beatrice takes a tumble into the Thames—only to be fished out by a pair of strong masculine arms that tempt her to stay locked in their heated embrace forever. That is, until she realizes those arms belong to Sebastian Hawkestone, Lord Coldhurst himself.


The little drowned mermaid has an interesting proposition indeed; one that Sebastian is surprised to find quite agreeable. Although he’s had women more beautiful, she is pleasing to the eye, and besides, it’s time he fathered an heir. Beatrice promises to be the ideal wife; a woman who hates him with an all-consuming passion is far too sensible to expect romance. However, it isn’t long before Sebastian’s plan for a marriage of convenience unravels, and he’s caught up in the exhilarating undertow of seduction.


Review2


This wonderfully written historical romance blends mystery, suspense, and passion beautifully!



Beatrice is a brave woman that will stop at nothing to protect her family. Ridiculed and cast aside by society, she takes a leap of faith and makes a bargain with the devil.



Sebastian’s a man of wealth, title, and honor. Riches, favor, and women cannot ease the guilt he feels for taking a young man’s life, but another source may help solve his problem. Although he’s caught off guard by a shameless request, the arrangement suits his fancy, and will help assure the continuation of his bloodline.


I was enraptured as passion exuded from each page involving a love scene played out, and fascinated by the suspenseful story line. The characters and setting were depicted perfectly for the time period, as well as the circumstances involved. I cringed as the hero and heroine made their mistakes, and shivered with delight as they made up! I didn’t always agree with their actions, as they were both a little hypocritical at times, but I loved them anyway. The villains were clever and implemented brilliantly. There were a few times that I became inpatient, but refused to ignore the beauty of the chase. I was greatly rewarded for staying the course.



As the ending leaves a little taste of what’s to come, I can’t wait to read the next installment! Excellent read & I highly recommend!

BLOG TOUR STOP! HOLD ME IN CONTEMPT BY WENDY WILLIAMS (@TastyBookTours)

Cover(20)Blurb

Move over 50 Shades, there’s a new romance in town. Superstar Wendy Williams brings on the heat in her first ever, no-holds-barred, down and dirty, romance novel.


Kimberly Kind is trying to get beyond her roots. A successful, beautiful, smart lawyer, she’s finally finding direction in her life and getting out of the streets. But a terrible accident threatens to throw her carefully laid plans off course. Now Kim’s hiding a huge secret… one that could threaten everything.


Enter King. A perfect mix of Justin Timberlake and David Beckham, the man oozes sex and has more swagger than anyone Kim’s ever met. Their chemistry is off the charts. But after passion-filled nights, the intensity of their emotions takes both of them by surprise.


Love was not supposed to be an option. Now it’s the only thing holding them together. When their pasts come back with a vengeance, can love possibly be enough?


Review3


Kimberly Kind is a successful, beautiful, smart lawyer trying to make her way in life and rise above her roots. However, an accident throws everything up in the air. Kim hides the secret even from herself. Kim also grows dependent on pills that stop the pain that she feels every morning and uses alcohol at night to dull the pain.


King is a hot and sexy man. Kimberly is drawn to King immediately. King is not a “nice” man but he is perfect for Kimberly. The chemistry between King and Kimberly is blistering. I respect King because he lets Kimberly figure things out herself without pushing.


I found this book well written with interesting and realistic characters. This author was very detailed and did not gloss much no matter how difficult the situation got. The ending leaves you hanging so I do wonder if there will be a sequel. Overall, this was an interesting read. This book is not your traditional romance novel.



 

Review2


 

I knew immediately that I’m not a member of the targeted audience, but that didn’t deter my interest.


This novel is mainly about a woman trying to come to grips with her past, her inability to see her self-destructive tendencies, and simply letting go. While there are some romantic scenes, the story line doesn’t support the act of calling this a romance.


The story uses a great deal of street slang, and a few references that some may find hard to understand, but it adds a certain roughness that makes the story more realistic. Williams’ has depicted addiction with precision and intelligence, giving the story more depth. The ending was a little cliché, but considering the characters, it fit. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it.

TRAILER REVEAL! AQUA BY M.A GEORGE (@GHBTours)





Aqua

By- M.A. George

Genre- YA Paranormal

Publication Date- April 16th, 2014 

 

Meet Layla McKelland:  

Novelist (unpublished, but cut her some slack…seventeen is a bit early to despair),

Slightly neurotic introvert (Alright, let’s be honest…there’s no “slightly” about it),

International Woman of Mystery, and…

Okay, just scratch the bio. 

 

The only real “mystery” in Layla’s life is why her father has never been on the scene.  Or why her mother drags Layla to a new coastal home every year.  

 

Nothing about the latest hometown seems too newsworthy…until a routine day at the beach leaves Layla questioning whether she’s read one too many paranormal fantasy novels.  The plot thickens when a random guy claims to know things about her father—a bizarre claim he backs up with an equally impossible stunt.  And Layla soon finds herself on the wrong side of a mysterious attempted drowning…on her own kitchen floor.

 

When all is done, Layla will attest that fact is far stranger than fiction.  And nothing in real life is ever as transparent as it seems…Not even water. 

 

Especially not water.

BOOK RELEASE BLAST! UPRISING BY ALLANA KEPHART & MELISSA SIMMONS (@GHBTours)




Uprising

The Dolan Prophecies Series Book #1

By- Allana Kephart & Melissa Simmons

Publication Date- April 18th, 2014

Genre- New Adult Dystopian 

 

The year 2102--the world as it was no longer exists. Ravaged by nuclear war and polluted almost to the point of no return, Earth was dying. When the faeries came and brought their healing magic, humanity was grateful at first. Centuries of damage repaired in just five years, and during the course of that rehabilitation, they invaded. Quietly overthrown, the human race is now enslaved. The majority doesn’t even realize they have no free will. Branded, herded and kept only to further the agendas of the Fae Courts, humanity could be facing extinction.  

 

But a resistance is coming…  

 

Fianna Dolan has spent her entire young life preparing herself for an uprising against the Fae. One scorching summer night Fi's parents leave and never return. Thrust into a position of power she never expected, Fi struggles with her new position and the responsibility it entails. When a secretive fae man known only as Flint breaches the city’s defenses claiming he can help, Fi begins to doubt everything she's ever considered truth. As betrayals and deception come to light, will Fi want the answers she’s been seeking, or will trusting Flint lead to her destruction?
