Book Tour ~ The Debt ~ by ~ Quinn Miller

Title: The Debt
Series: Portland Social
Author: Quinn Miller
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: August 12, 2021
Cover Design: Kat Savage
For Gretchen Holt, it was barely a debt.
 
It wasn’t something she thought about, day in and day out. She didn’t feel she was owed a single thing in this life—she learned that early on.
 
She wanted something, though.
 
That something else went by the name of Chase Carmichael. The very man who’d taken possession of her heart, years ago.
 
He just didn’t know it.
 
He also wasn’t supposed to know about the worst night of her life, let alone witness it.
 
But he did.
 
For Chase, it was the debt of all debts. The thing he lived for, on a mission to make things right between them.
 
He didn’t want to believe a secret could destroy so much—let alone the same girl he so desperately wants to save.
 
Will the perfect time ever come for them, or will his attempt at payback make them both sorry they ever tried to begin with?
“What was your peach and pit of your day, Chase?”

“My what?” He looks down at me curiously. Chase is six-foot-three to my five-foot-three.

“Your peach, the good part of your day. And every peach has a pit, a bad part. Or maybe a part of your day you wish went differently. But the peach is the good part. I want to know what your peach for the day was.”

He looks out to the ocean for what feels like eternity but is probably less than twenty seconds.

My heartbeat skips. It feels like something is about to happen.

“My pit is I wish I got here earlier.” He looks at me, taking his hands from his pockets as he reaches over and pulls my hood up. His hands drop from my face but his eyes stay on me, catching every reaction to him. “And my peach, that’s easy, G. Right now, with you.”

 

Quinn Miller lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, two daughters, and a crazy dog who her family calls her boyfriend. She loves to write stories that make readers feel, with a dash of spice added in.

From a past of righteousness to a future of anything but…
Rev rarely does what’s expected of him.
The Blood Fury member’s rebellious nature tends to lead him on the road less traveled.
In his youth, he fought the chains meant to restrain him, meant to force him on a righteous path. A path he never chose. A path he never planned to follow.
He prefers to pave his own road, taking detours to forge his own future.
Even if it’s one full of sin.
But an unexpected call drags him back to the painful past he’s left far behind. One he’s tried to forget.
No good reason exists for him to return. Except to witness the final moments of the person who made him and his sister suffer.
Maybe even get a taste of revenge.
However, he’s not sure he can deal with it alone. He wants someone to stand by him and help give him strength.
A woman who also carves her own path and spits in the face of restrictive rules.
The problem is, she’s off limits. No matter how tempting she is, no matter how satisfying the sin would be, touching her is one rule he can’t break.
Ultimately, mistakes are made.
Secrets are forced to be kept.
Because he’s a sinner.
He was born one.
He will die one.
And in between, he plans to enjoy the life he chose.
Sins and all.
Note: Blood & Bones: Rev is the eighth book in the Blood Fury MC series. As always, this book has no cheating, no cliffhanger and has an HEA. It’s recommended to read this series in order.

Michael

I’ve always known what I wanted in life, and never shied from an opportunity, especially with my art. Nothing can stop me.
When Morgan comes along, the shy girl with the most expressive eyes, I’m certain she’s it for me. I know she has doubts about us, but I’m going to do whatever it takes to show her I’m all in.
When Morgan lets her insecurities get the best of her, she gives up on us, saying it’s not forever. I’m left with no choice but to let her work through her feelings. I just hope she comes back to me; I couldn’t stand to lose her forever.

Morgan

I’ve always had doubts. About everything, but mostly myself.
Growing up, I was never the girl boys fought over. I’m not ugly, but I’m no showstopper. So, when I catch my boyfriend cheating on me, my self-esteem takes a nose dive and reinforces what I’ve been thinking on the inside—there’s nothing special about me.
When Michael takes an interest in me—with the help of his beautiful dog—I’m wary. My ego is bruised, and I’m not ready to fully trust. He goes out of his way to prove what’s between us is real, but I can’t get past the hurdles in our way.
What if all I do is bring him down?
So, I do the only thing I know how, I run. I can only hope it’s not too late for us when I figure things out.

He slides a finger along the length of my arm, and it feels amazing… warm and soft. And suddenly I want him to touch me everywhere. 

 

He presses his mouth against my head. “I’m glad I’ve finally got you alone,” he says. “I’ve been dying to smell your hair all night. It always smells so nice.”

 

I close my eyes, inhaling his scent too. “You smell nice too… manly.”

 

He laughs into my hair, and pulls me in closer. He’s barely touched me, and I’m already so turned on, I fear I might explode. I don’t know if it’s the drugs, or the fact that I haven’t been laid in years, or maybe it’s just… him. 

 

He presses a finger under my chin, and lifts my face to his. “You are so pretty.”

 

I love his words. I don’t know if he says them often, if they mean anything at all. But I love them anyway. I do feel pretty in his arms. I’m desperate for his kiss, but he teases, almost as if he knows how much I want it. This is a man who loves to play, and I’m his chosen toy tonight. 

 

His lips travel softly across my mouth, around my chin, down my neck, and back up again, his breath hot on my skin. I honestly don’t know how much more of this I can take. 

 

He finally presses his hot mouth on mine. His lips are just as soft and delicious as I imagined in my fantasies. And he tastes of mint. And God, he knows how to kiss. Every stroke of his tongue, every soft bite of my lips reels me in deeper, arouses me more intensely. I lose myself in him, and I feel him lose himself in me. 

 

He hikes up my thigh against his hips, and presses me against the wall of bottles. I wrap my arms around his shoulders, and hike up my other leg against him, wanting to get closer to him, craving more. I grind against him, and when he jerks up the skirt of my dress, I’m game for anything. 

 

He pulls away, tearing his mouth from mine, and I ache. I want his kiss. He travels south as he kisses my shoulder, then bites the swell of my breast. God, I want him. Now. He kneels to the floor, and his hands travel upward.

 

Oh no… the Spanx! 

 

Just then, the cellar door swings wide open and Victoria stands there, wide-eyed. 

 

Oh, shit.

Francesca Penn lives in Texas with her husband and son. While obtaining her Technical Writing degree, a creative writing course and playwriting elective reawakened her desire to create stories. Her brain lives in fiction; even the songs she listens to become music videos in her head.

When she is not writing, she can be found hounding her loved ones with multiple “What-if” scenarios. As a true closet romantic, she is prone to filling up her DVR with Hallmark movies. A friend once told her that she’d trained the whole 20 plus years she’d known her to write romance since her nose was always in a love story.

Francesca believes that love is colorblind and plans to provide a mix of couples of different races and ethnicities because – to her – men are like Skittles, and we all know their motto.

 
 
 
King Ellie discovered her love for dark romance through reading and as she read more and more of them, she discovered that this was the genre she wanted to write it. The antiheroes and what others would classify as villains, she sees them as an opportunity to show what a hurt, heartbroken male who is seen as anything but can love harder. The heroines get a chance to be loved deeply and only by the antiheroes. Love isn’t always just black and white… it’s a spectrum of color.
