Well, overnight I went from career lawyer to single mom.
It’s okay, I can do it. I’m ready to face this alone until…
Along comes Nathaniel Chadwick. Billionaire adrenaline junky. Everyone’s favorite playboy… and my sister’s brother-in-law.

I didn’t expect any of this…most of all him.

Gail Haris believes in fairytales, love, and laughter as the best medicine.
She was born and raised in a small town in the Midwest. After graduating with a degree in Mass Communications, Gail married her high school sweetheart and moved back to her hometown.
She’s been on many adventures traveling across America and Europe. But her favorite adventures are the ones where she gets lost in a book.
Her love for reading and traveling led her to attend book conventions. Those conventions gave her the encouragement she needed to combine her passion for creativity and storytelling. Using coffee and her imagination, she loves writing contemporary romances that blend laughter and true love out of every day chaos.
When Gail isn’t day dreaming in front of her computer, she’s busy raising her two daughters with the man of her dreams. She loves traveling with her family, binge watching television series with her husband, singing Disney songs with her daughters, and having huge family and friends get-togethers that involve lots of food and usually a cake.
She hopes by following her own dream of becoming an author, she can set an example to her daughters that dreams can become a reality. Maybe she can encourage you too.
Never stop believing in love, dreams, and yourself. And coffee…don’t give up on coffee and books.

Kace August: famous, intense, dark, addictive. Aria Alard: a woman with secrets, passion, and a dangerous past.
Passion. Secrets. Mystery. Aria fell hard for Kace. She trusted him. But did he deserve that trust? And where is Gio?
A Wicked Song is the second book in the Brilliance Trilogy.
“I want you,” he says. “Just you.”
“How do I know that?”
A low, frustrated sound escapes his lips and he drops the medication bag, and spikes fingers into my hair, a low curse escaping his lips. His eyes meet mine, and the depth of the emotion he then spikes in me steals my breath. Before I can catch it again, he’s breathing for me. His mouth slants over my mouth, his tongue licking a wicked, seductive note against my tongue. And despite my injured hand and my burdened heart, I melt the way I always melt for this man. I melt and I moan, and when he tears his mouth from mine, I am panting.
“That is how you know,” he declares. “We are connected, you and me. We both feel it.”
“All that says is that I want you and that I have the potential to be foolish because of that desire, but I won’t live up to that potential, Kace.”
“How do I know you aren’t after my money?”
I blanch. “Because I’m not. You know I’m not.”
“Can you prove it?”
“You know I’m not,” I repeat.
His hands come down on my shoulders and he pulls back to look at me as he says, “I do know you, but that still requires me trusting you and I’ve had plenty of reasons in my life not to offer you that trust. Reasons you don’t know. Many reasons, Aria. Many betrayals. But I give you my trust anyway. I’m not after the formula, but all I have to offer is my word. You have to decide if you trust me.”
My hand settles on his chest, and his heart beats a rowdy song beneath my palm. “I’m very confused right now,” I confess, and it’s as honest as I have ever been with him or me. “And my head is spinning.”
His hand covers my hand on his chest. “Then let me take care of you. Let me take you home.”
There is a library filled with books the size of all the reasons I should say no, but even as I have that thought, he says, “Don’t say no.”
Words he’s said to me every moment of indecision I’ve ever shared with him. And right or wrong, like every time before, I don’t say no. I say, “Yes.”

I read this book immediately after book 1 and I still need to re-read them before book 3 because I know I need the immediate gratification. And I have to follow the story of Kace and Aria from start to finish in 1 fell swoop.
This book picks up where book 1 left off. Aria is still trying to find her past and trust Kace again. But because of who he is and who she is, she isn’t sure that Kace wants her or her lineage. But Kace and Aria’s off the charts relationship just leaps off the page.
As with every Lisa Renee Jones book I’ve ever read, the characters and storyline SUCK ME IN! I’m immediately captivated and must read from start to finish what happened. As with every multiple book series, this one ends on a cliffhanger that will leave you BEGGING for more! And that’s definitely what I am doing. September 22 cannot come soon enough!!
5 stars!

She has vanished… without a trace.

When Kellan finally finds Makayla, she’s in bad shape, but she’s alive. Now he just has to keep her that way…
Finding refuge on a remote island with a kind, handsome Marine is not how Makayla expected her nightmare to end. As the days turn to months, Makayla and Kellan develop an unbreakable bond, falling in love with the island, and with each other. But they can’t hide forever. Because even in paradise, danger lurks…


“Sexy, emotional, and heartfelt. I read this second chance love story in one sitting!”―Mia Sheridan, New York Times bestselling author on A Love Like Yours
“Robin Huber is a fantastic storyteller. A Love Like Yours is a breathtakingly romantic debut.”―Melanie Harlow, USA Today bestselling author on A Love Like Yours
“A story that doesn’t shy away from the complexities of tangled hearts. Achingly romantic.”―K.A. Tucker, USA Today bestselling author on A Love Like Yours
“A Love Like Yours has angst, heat, conflict, tension,and heart…. Fans of Meghan Quinn and Katy Evans will enjoy.”―Harlequin Junkie on A Love Like Yours

This book was so not what I was expecting! I was interested because Makayla (love her name) is working for a pharmaceutical company that she is in the dark pharma world – which is fascinating to me, because I work for a drug monitoring program. So I was in when reading the blurb.
The dark pharma world is just the tip of the iceberg! Although it’s how Makayla ends up getting swept up into this whole thing – which is a little terrifying to be honest because it wouldn’t surprise me if this was something that could happen. Plus it brings Kellan into her life and he was exactly what she needed at the time that Makayla needed him.
This story had highs and lows and everything in between. This was a wild ride from beginning to end and I was sucked in from the beginning!
4 stars!

Determined to live life on her terms, Jenna Lachlan
focused her energy on growing her business all the while
flying under the radar, but fate had other plans.
Insert the sexy, assertive, and captivating Cameron Rijker
into the fold, and the stakes just got higher. He pushed
her buttons, decimated her comfort zone, and made
her yearn for a life she long since vowed wasn’t
in the cards.
Their attraction was immediate, their chemistry
undeniable, and their connection unparalleled.
However, beneath the surface remained a secret so
big that Jenna would go to any lengths to keep
hidden no matter the cost.
The only downside to anonymity was that you could
never fully trust anyone but yourself.

“Something amusing you, Jenna?” He asked.
“Yes, you.”
“Me?” His spine straightened, and the tension brewing below my waist began building momentum.
“Where’s the dominating man I know—”
“He’s not far away I can assure you.” He interrupted before I could finish.
“It’s not like you to be so willing to hand over control, yet here you are, letting me take the lead on the designs. You’re giving me an awful lot of power. You know that, right?”
“I do.” The edge in his voice was a seductive purr, making me question his agenda.
“I’m not interested in playing games, Cameron,” I replied, fully prepared to go head to head with him.
“I can assure you; I never play games.” His shoulders pushed his upper body back flush against his desk chair while his arms folded across his chest. “When it comes to business,” he added with a cocked eyebrow and a suggestive glint in his eyes. “Business aside, what are your plans for dinner tonight, Jenna?”
I stood up and took my growing frustration out on the laptop as I jammed it in my purse with authority.
“Jenna, I asked you a question.” His brusque tone startled me.
“I don’t know I’ve lost my appetite.” I lied. Irritated by his behavior, I refused to inform him of my plans for heading out of town.
“Hopefully, not because of me?” His voice softened.
Yes, because of you and your mercurial personality disorder, I wanted to say. “I’m not sure really what to think right now.” This man had me exasperated and running in circles.
“What’s with this attitude of yours?”
“My attitude?” My hand flew to my chest as if I’d been stung by his words. “You didn’t sleep in your bed? You barely spoke two words to me in the kitchen this morning. What’s a girl to think? But don’t worry. I get it. You’ve had me now, and it’s time to move on. So for the sake of both of us, let’s not drag this out any longer. I can still keep things professional as long as we are working together if that is a concern.” A sinking feeling pushed down on my chest, threatening my next breath.
“Is that what you really want?” he asked. His expression was unwavering as he studied me intently, searching for a hint as to the direction I was leaning.
No, was my gut reaction. If Cameron was having doubts, I wished he’d be upfront about them.
“Isn’t this what you want?” I twisted his words and threw them back at him.
He stood up and held his hand out to me. “I’d rather show you what I want.”
I needed to keep my composure, stand my ground, and end this now before my emotions delved deeper. However, my head and heart were miles apart as I placed my hand willingly in his.

Release Date: September 15th
With everything Jenna had worked toward at risk,
yet everything she’d ever dreamed of to gain, she had
to decide if Cameron jeopardizing her trust was
worth the risk of letting her guard down.
Getting involved with another man was never part of
her plan. However, Cameron wasn’t just any other man.
He was the one. He was an unexpected ray of light
in an otherwise darkened existence.
So, when Jenna’s past and present collide, and viable
threats emerge from the shadows, she finds herself
fighting for the future and a life she hadn’t believed
she was worthy of until Cameron showed her what
it meant to be truly loved.
Release Date: October 13th
When Jenna’s past was called into question, truths
uncovered, and a stunning secret revealed, her world fell
apart in the most earth-shattering of ways.
One so devastating and profoundly painful, there
was no escaping the hollowness that would remain
in her heart until she righted the wrongs of the past.
While Jenna was no stranger to a blindside, nothing
would stand in her way as she fought to reclaim the
life she rightfully deserved. However, being
confronted by one’s worst nightmare, meant her
fortitude would face the ultimate test.
The problem with putting your life on the line was not
everyone would walk away unscathed.
