Nothing lasts—and I pray that’s true for Brett Walker.

 

I heard “nothing lasts” when my father first said it.
I understood “nothing lasts” when my mother died and my dreams of becoming a romance author also withered away.
Now, I find myself begging that “nothing lasts” with the arrival of the town’s newest alphahole, Brett.
Every word out of his foul mouth and every smirk on his handsome but cruel face ignites contempt. I dish the misery right back at him, and in those few moments of triumph, I relish those gritted teeth, and the red glow on his face.
But beneath the biting comments, there’s something we share.
A yearning for something to endure and to hurt those who have wounded us.
However, it may be too late.
Our rough start might override our new fire filled connection, and when he starts to challenge all my beliefs, I might be too scared to give myself over. But if we do work past it all, something unusual may happen––we might fall in love.
Now if he can only make me believe that it will last.

 

Garnet Christie is an author and Midwestern native living in the desert. Though she misses trees, Garnet admits there is an acrid beauty to the place that has been home for twenty years. A traveling enthusiast, Garnet has visited over thirty-seven states and when challenged with something new, whether it was ice skating, tap dancing, ballet, piano lessons, or horseback riding, she never backed down. Armed with that bravery, a childhood spent in the company of English teachers, and her creative soul, Garnet took to writing

She loves serving up Alpha male’s who are searching for their happily ever after, and paring them up with women who are equally, if not more, reluctant. Inspired by experiences in life, friends, family, and countless stories on television and books, Garnet writes whatever story is screaming at her the loudest.

When not writing, Garnet is found reading, dancing, and spending too much money on K-pop merch. All the above is achieved by drinking too much tea, avoiding sleep, and eating chocolate. Garnet also adores Italian food and will go to great lengths to hunt down a fantastic plate of Chicken Marsala that comes with a cannoli.

New Release ~ Heavy Petting ~ by ~ Erin Nicholas

Friends becoming lovers should be the easiest thing in the world. Right?

Heavy Petting, an all-new sexy and sweet romantic comedy by New York Times bestselling author Erin Nicholas is available now!

He’s her best friend. A reformed bad boy turned hot teacher. And after one spur-of-the-moment Vegas wedding… her husband.

Jordan Benoit and Fletcher Landry have been best friends since they were six. He’s always been The Guy. When she needed picked up, cheered up, or lifted up–like literally, to see the stage at a concert–Fletcher was the guy.

So when her boyfriend dumps her–on national TV–Fletcher immediately gets on a plane and comes to her rescue.

And when she ends up in a Vegas wedding chapel and needs someone to say, “I do”…yep, Fletcher’s the guy. Of course.

But being The Guy 24/7 is a lot. He just wants everyone to give him a freaking minute to get this marriage thing right. Including his sexy, sweet new wife who he’s wanted for three years. Who is exasperatingly, temptingly all-in from minute one.

Jordan knows what she wants. A life in her hometown. A job with alpacas. And Fletcher. Not necessarily in that order.

They’ve said the vows. They’d told the world. They’ve told their grandmas. Forget taking things slow. Forget just heavy petting. Forget any chance of backing out when things get tough. They’re going to have to go all the way, in every way.

After all, friends becoming lovers should be the easiest thing in the world. Right?

I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

BLURB: Ava Harper may be a raiser of the dead and a not-so-famous author, but she isn’t a vampire hunter. Not even close.

With the decision made to stay in Shipton Harbor, she returns to the home she shared with her deceased husband in Pennsylvania to put it on the market. But saying goodbye to the memories of the home they raised their son in is a lot harder than it had sounded in her head.

In the months she’s been in Shipton, new neighbors moved in across the street from her Philly home. Now, Ava has nothing against vampires. But when people in the neighborhood start turning up dead, she can’t help but to check into the newbies in the hood.

Since she doesn’t know enough about law enforcement red tape, she calls her best friend to come and help. However, Sam is working a case with a neighboring town and Sheriff Drew takes it upon himself to show up at her door instead.

And now, as if dealing with how the sheriff makes her knees weak isn’t bad enough, her house is haunted.

Just another day in Ava’s life at this point.

Sales Blitz ~ The Stolen Papyrus ~ by ~ Cate M. Turner

 

 

Title: The Stolen Papyrus
Series: The Artifact Guardians #1
Author: Cate M. Turner
Genre: Romantic Suspense/Mystery
Release Date: July 16, 2019
It’s every archaeologist’s dream to explore the hidden tombs of Egypt. Unfortunately for Leila Sterling, her dream turns into a nightmare when Xander Harrison, a childhood friend who betrayed her, joins the team.

She came to Egypt to study the ancient past, not to be confronted with her own. Besides Xander’s questionable motives for joining the excavation, she’s also convinced he’s the one responsible for her father’s death. But she can’t prove it. And if she doesn’t want to miss out on the excavation of a lifetime, she’ll have to put her personal feelings aside and work with the annoyingly handsome Englishman.

But as they find clues to the whereabouts of an ancient tomb, secrets start to surface, revealing pieces of a deadly plot against them. Soon, she starts to realize she might have been wrong about Xander. The only way to discover the truth is if she gives up the very secrets her father died to protect.

If she doesn’t…she might share her father’s fate.

The Stolen Papyrus is a gripping mystery, full of suspense and adventure, plus a dash of romance. It would be enjoyed by fans of Elizabeth Peters, Indiana Jones, and The Mummy.

Book Tour & Review ~ Mr. Not Nice Guy ~ by ~ Katherine L. Evans

 

Title: Mr. Not Nice Guy

Author: Katherine L. Evans
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: May 5, 2021
Cover Design: R.L. Cover Designs
Nice guys finish last, but not this time…

I’m angry and ticked off. Period. End of story.

Well, that’s not entirely true. It’s the start of the story, actually.

I’m August Hawkins, and I’m the nicest guy you’ll ever meet.

But right now, I’m cranky and sick of being “Mr. Nice Guy,” especially working for a record label that’s run by my ex-girlfriend and her new fiancé. And that’s not even the worst of it. The label signs a sultry, sexy, and shameless singer, and they want me to manage her.

Perfect plan, right? No chance. This mischievous singer just so happens to be the same irresistible woman I spent one night with on my first night in New Orleans. And now Scarlett, the sex-pot-jazz crooner, isn’t playing nice with her seductive ways and tantalizing body.

She knows I’m too nice to play dirty, but it’s all I want. Some way, somehow, I need to cure this Scarlett fever.
 

 

 

“A breath of fresh air.” — Goodreads review ★★★★★

 

 

“Hysterical banter and off-the-charts sexual tension.” — Goodreads review ★★★★★

 

 

“What a fun, sexy twist on the bully romance plot! I loved it!” — Goodreads review ★★★★★

I haven’t read the other books in the Romance in NOLA series but I definitely need to go back and read the others now! Not that you need to read it to appreciate August and Scarlett’s story, but I just like the other characters and want to know their backstories.

It was instinctive to feel bad for August initially. Between hearing his backstory and being new in town, you just felt bad for him. But that quickly changed when I heard Scarlett’s story. Her Maw Maw struck something in me because I was in the same situation before my dad passed last year. So it hit home for me. Plus August was just totally a butthead to Scarlett once they started working together.

But I’ve totally got to give Scarlett so many props for being sassy and unwilling to back down with August. And for not being a tattletale for how things weren’t working with August but she still was willing to deal with it herself and not go running to Brennan.

5 stars!

A struggling single mom gets caught up in the web of a notorious Casanova who likes to play games.

When Clara Scott signs up for the Player’s Game, she does it only for the money. As a struggling single mom, she needs the extra cash.

Colton Rossi is beautiful, but he’s also a notorious player. Women swoon all over him. Yet Clara’s not interested in the least in a Casanova like him, nor does she have time in her life for romance.

She knows she can’t get tangled up in his games. She needs to look out for herself, and her small son too. As intoxicating as he is, she vows to pull herself away from him, but when he makes her an offer she can’t refuse, she’s drawn in further despite her best intentions.

Will her preconceptions be confirmed, or is there more to Colton Rossi than meets the eye?

WICKED PLAYER contains some coarse language and sexual scenes. For 18+ audiences.
 

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.
