RELEASE DAY! DANE (BOOK 1-HUNKS) BY MICHELLE HUGHES

Title: Dane (Book 1- Hunks)

Author: Michelle Hughes

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release: September 1, 2015 

I’m your fantasy.  The man you want in your bed, the lover you’ll masturbate over long after I’ve gone, and the dream that leaves your panties wet making you crave just one more touch.  Tonight I can be yours.  It won’t mean anything except hot, pounding, mind blowing sex, but you don’t care.  Each breath you catch, every moan you let slip, I pull you deeper into my world of lust.  I want to serve you, maybe dinner or if you’re lucky something more fulfilling.  Walk through these doors and reality slips away.  This is my playground.  So tell me.  Are you ready for a HUNK?

Dane – Book 1 of HUNKS:  Behind every hunk is a story.  How much will you risk to go all the way? 

“Fuck me, Dane.  Show me how good you are.” Wrapping my hands under her tight ass I sank my cock balls deep and rode her hard and fast, the groan of pleasure I expected escaping right on time.  “God!  Yes! Just like that.”

I was a god when I fucked, and my balls tightened in that familiar preparation of release.  Pumping in and out, the condom caught my load and I felt her flesh squeeze and retract as her orgasm flooded my dick. She’d remember this as the best night of her life, I’d be lucky to remember her face. Straining into her, she milked me dry and a grunt of pleasure bellowed from my lips.  My dick shriveled and I flopped on my back, catching my breath a few minutes before standing up to discard the evidence.

Giving her a wink, I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower.  Women expected no cuddling session when we finished, they wanted the image. The man who made them cream their pants when I served them dinner or put on a personal show for the right price in our private rooms.  I’m not gay, so I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the fucking, but it was all hollow.  I couldn’t remember the names of the women that filled my bed, even the ones that made multiple visits.  They were just pussy, a way to bust a nut mostly.

Years ago when I had a conscious it bothered me, but the women that came my way used me way more than I used them.  I was the pretty eye candy they wanted hanging on their arm to impress their friends, or the fantasy to fulfill their deviant needs.  Their Hunk.  All of it was smoke and mirrors.  They didn’t know jack shit about me, and I knew even less about them.

The busty little blonde I’d just screwed, climbed in with me taking the soap to clean me up.  I let her.   “I can’t stay.  My husband will wonder where I am.”  

I just smiled, knowing it didn’t matter what I said anyway and let her finish soaping my six pack abs.  Returning the favor ended up in another quickie against the tiled wall before she sailed out of my life like the dozens of others before her.  Once upon a time I’d craved a woman who could see past the exterior that had earned me more money than I could piss away in a lifetime.  I grew the fuck up.  

Michelle Hughes live in Alabama with her husband Jarrod, and they have five children.  She was a singer/songwriter for twelve years and after hosting a televised talent showcase on the road decided to entertain in written word to raise a family.  Currently Michelle has fifteen books published and many have been international bestsellers.

RELEASE DAY! LEADERS OF THE PACK BY MICHELLE HUGHES

They were looking for a mate, but I refused to be any man's Bitch!

Tossed aside by my father as payback for a murder committed by our pack, my new Alpha gave me to three of his leaders.  As a half-breed who hadn't turned yet, he expected me to be honored by the act?  What honor was there in having three virile werewolves wanting to toss you on the ground and rip your body to shreds with their oversized, locking up anatomy?  The damn reason my mother kept me away from males was to spare me from that fate!  I wasn't any man's bitch, and planned on keeping it that way!

She thought she could resist our mating call, but eventually she'd submit!

Everything about us demanded her dormant sexuality awaken, and no bitch was strong enough to resist that pull.  What kind of female remained celibate especially when she'd been raised in a pack?  None that I was aware of until her.  Her luscious body called to the primitive nature of my beast, demanding I claim her for my own.  The only thought I had was bending her to my will and planting my cubs deep in her womb.  Our pack didn't support rape, so I use whatever seduction necessary to make her mine before the next full moon.  Sharing her with my friends was an afterthought, but she soon come to follow any command I gave!

Join the Phantom Wolves, MC as they journey to the Prowl, the South Dakota motorcycle rally for shifters.  Once you go pack, you never look back.  They'll make you their bitch, and you'll like it!

RELEASE DAY REVIEW! CHERISHED BY MICHELLE HUGHES

Luca Phillips dropped me to my knees with a promise...

He was sexy and confident, absolutely brilliant and Luca wanted me.  I was infatuated from the first conversation, wanting to be what he needed.  For the first time in my life I understood what it meant to desire.  All he demanded was my trust.  I had been broken by my past and doubted I could give that gift, no matter how badly I craved him.

Luca's world was dark when looking in from the outside, but the light in his eyes promised something more.  Hope.  Together we could change the downward spiral my life was taking.  His words.

Kneeling at his feet, handing over control, he asked one question.  How far are you willing to go to be...

This story touched me in a deep way. Everyone wants to find a relationship that is important to them. BDSM is a lifestyle that is misunderstood and judged harshly.  Michelle has done a wonderful job of weaving a story around truth.  Luca is a forever type of man. He understands Gina's (I know what you did there, babe) demons better than she does. Overcoming trauma is never easy and it takes a lot of strength to give another person something as precious as your trust. Luca earned it.  Thank you,  Michelle. You have shown us that we can overcome domestic violence and find our own forever types of guys.

RELEASE DAY AND REVIEW! TEARS OF CRIMSON BY MICHELLE HUGHES

The New Orleans Vampire Bar, Tears of Crimson,  comes back to life!  February 17, 2015

I was only fifteen the first time he found me.  I say he found me because I hadn't been looking for him... yet there he was when I closed my eyes. When my mother was declared insane, the only person I had left in the world was Granny Louise.  Even though she was good to me, I was a target for bullies, ones that were convinced that the apple never fell far from the tree.  I was tired of my life, tired of a world that fostered such heartache and pain.

Rafe changed things.

He salvaged what was left of my will to live.  Those six years became my lifeline.  He opened my eyes to passion, shared a world with me that was so vivid that I could still hear his words in my ears, and the ghost of his touch on my skin when I woke up.

Now that my world has seemingly fallen apart, the only place I can think of going is where my dreams took place- New Orleans.  Rafe and I have walked those streets in my fantasies.  Somehow, I feel like that's where I can find my salvation, my purpose.

What frightens me is, now that I've stepped in Tears of Crimson, a part of me is starting to believe that some dreams are meant to be lived.

I am one of the lucky ones who discovered Michelle in the early stages of her writing career.  I stumbled upon this book called Tears of Crimson.  I read it and was hooked.  How do you describe meeting your book soul mate?  This woman wrote the things that I wanted to read and wrote it in a way that drew me in and kept me hooked.  I never looked back.

Rafe is that man that you can picture clearly in our heads.  We all have one--that one man that could convince us that being single might not be a bad idea.  He is sexy, dominant and mysterious.  He comes in an immortal package that would make most of contemplate forever.  

Cara has been drawn to the man in her dreams but who knew she would literally find him?  New Orleans is a mystical place and the people are too.  This story is sensual and passionate.  I read the original and the revamp and I can't wait for you to discover the secret of Tears of Crimson. Michelle has managed to capture all the original steam and roll it into a sexy package that is on my permanent read again list. 

P.S.  Say hello to the wait staff.  Those girls have a little something special...

     

RELEASE DAY! STRAWBERRY WINE BY MICHELLE HUGHES

This Valentines Day remember your first love with Strawberry Wine, the new adult romance from bestselling author, Michelle Hughes.

Luke Parks was mine. My first kiss, my first love and my first broken heart. He swept me off my feet with just one look and after a summer of awakening my body to passion left me broken. He was twenty-four and to a girl of sixteen, I'd never been prepared for the devastation of loving and losing so completely. Time, like all things moves on, but my heart never fully recovered from watching him drive off down that country road out of my life.

Fate. Can you really escape your past?

I grew up, finished college and moved to the big city. I thought I'd left all those memories behind, but fate can be a real bitch. I'm a journalist now and my first real assignment throws me face first back in front of Luke. He's opening a new tattoo parlor in Chicago and they want me to get his story. One look into his blue eyes and I'm remembering drinking strawberry wine and the summer nights we spent sharing everything but my virginity.

It was inevitable that he'd be my first lover.

The last summer night we'd spent together, I was determined to give him the one thing I'd kept from our relationship. At the last moment I'd balked but like I said, fate. There was no doubt in my mind that now that he was back in my life, I'd end up in his bed. My only sanity? My best friend and roommate, Jake. He's that guy that you can always depend on, the one you have to call your friend because he's just too sweet to be anything else. Fate was impossible to resist, so I could only hope when Luke destroyed my soul again, Jake would be there to pick up the pieces.

Sometimes your heart has to be broken before you can really understand love.

REVIEW BY BRANDY:

I was a fan of Michelle's work long before I was her friend.  She always manages to grip me in some way and drag me into her stories.  I was given a copy of this story to read in exchange for my opinion.  This was a sweet story that had me intrigued at the beginning.  How many of us have fallen in love with the bad boy only to be burned?  Mia had loved Luke for so long that getting over him was proving to be impossible.  I am convinced that fate has a sick sense of humor.  The minute she tries to get over him, he walks back into her life.  Her best friend, Jake has been there with her for a long time and he is not happy with the turn things are taking when Mia falls under Luke's spell again.  I felt the tears streaming when she was broken and all hope was lost.  I know for a fact that you have to be broken before you can find the strength to discover what love truly is.  Thank you, Michelle for reminding me how much I loved Boone's Farm, hot summer nights, the sweet agony of first love and what a forever love feels like.

Amazon  Barnes & Noble  Paperback

About the Author:  Michelle Hughes

I grew up in the country and remember drinking Strawberry Wine with my friends on the lake.  Writing this book was like reliving my past and needless to say a few tears fell when those memories flooded through my mind.  Looking back now, I remember how I thought I'd never get over my first love.  I think we all have one of those, that guy that just never leaves your thoughts no matter how many years have passed.  Even though you know leaving him behind was the best thing, it still tugs at your heartstrings to remember how naive you were when that first kiss awakened you.

As a mom of five and married, believe me many years have flown by.  That being said I can recall with vivid clarity those awkward years when you thought you knew everything and doubted you'd be able to live another day if he didn't love you back. I'm hoping that when readers thumb through the pages, they remember those feelings.  For myself, I wouldn't go back to those days if I could, but when something stays in your mind for that long it's hard not to look back with a smile or a tear.

BLOG TOUR STOP! Beyond 10 Nights by Michelle Hughes and Karl Jones (@MichelleHughes_ , @kast1j)

Wow!  Do you ever put down a book and just sit there for a moment and wonder how in the world you were going to make it till the release of the next story?  That is how I felt when I finished reading 10 Nights.  (Click here for my review of 10 Nights!)  Let me tell you that Beyond 10 Nights was everything I expected and then some!

Leah is in love with Rhett and has accepted his proposal of marriage.  Even though Janie and David don't understand the relationship that she has with Rhett, Leah is hopeful that she will be able to fix things with her friends.  She is devastated when she realizes that Janie has no desire to support her relationship with Rhett and explodes on her.  Furious and in tears, Leah returns to Rhett's house where he makes it clear that he wants her to stay with him anyway and that he wants to take care of her.  The submissive side of her wants to take him up on that offer but she knows that she still needs to find a job to take care of herself.

Leah is very nervous when Rhett tells her that he is opening the dungeon back up and she will be doing a scene that night.  She is not sure how she will react but wants to please her Master.  Later that night, while folks are arriving a surprise guest arrives.  A lifelong friend of Rhett's who also is a Master and lives the lifestyle, Alex.  I have to stop here and say that there is not a single thing about Alex that I don't find sexy as hell.  The man is yummy with a capital Y and it makes me want to find the nearest dungeon and convince him to join me!  That being said, back to the story.  Alex is intrigued when he meets Leah for the first time and can't seem to figure out what has happened to his friend.  He has never treated a sub like he does Leah and Alex decides to take Rhett up on his offer to stay at the house so they can catch up.  Running into Leah in the kitchen the next morning, Alex joins her for breakfast and after talking to her for a bit, he begins to understand Rhett's obsession.  When he realizes that she is job hunting he offers to give her a shot at his advertising agency and convinces her to go with him to check it out.

When Rhett finds that Leah has spent the day with Alex, he explodes with pent up rage and emotion. Leah doesn't feel like she should have to deal with that so she leaves with Alex to take a break. I have to tell you that I don't think I would have been able to handle myself around Alex, cause when sex walks like sin, you have to take advantage. Leah and Alex develop a wonderful friendship and it eventually leads to more. I love where this story goes and the intricate relationships. Go Beyond 10 Nights and into a world of desire.

I don't want to ruin the story for anyone so I will stop there.  If you haven't read the first book in the series, 10 Nights, then you need to hop over to Amazon or click the link below to get started.  This book picks up where it leaves off so you might be a little lost! :)  I was invited to be a stop on this blog tour and excited doesn't even begin to describe it!  The genius behind this fabulous tour decided we should do a little This or That with our two amazing authors.  I have to admit that I was a little curious about their answers to my questions.

A Night at Tears of Crimson (Tears of Crimson Vampire Nightclub) by Michelle Hughes

This has to be one of the sexiest paranormal reads that I have found. When I first purchased this book I was unfamiliar with the work of Ms. Hughes but I decided to take a chance because lets face it, sex and vampires are pure seduction. I love the setting of a bar in New Orleans. I am from the south and those hidden little bars have some of the most fascinating stories to tell. Her characters, Rafe and Cara, are real. They feel a connection that doesn't happen everyday and seeing that passion develop is like watching a flower unfold.
