New Release & Review ~ Hostage ~ by ~ Jas T. Ward

 

Jas T. Ward’s Hostage is a thrill ride of adventure with a sexy paranormal romance twist written in K. Bromberg’s The Everyday Heroes World project.

 

When Duty Holds Your Heart Hostage

Evan O’Brien lived his immortal existence committed to a life of hardcore service to the secret war and army of The Grid. He had zero time for love, an emotion that complicated his control on all aspects of his life. He was determined his heart had no say. And nothing or no one could change that.

Lily Devenmore spent her days working with kids in a job surrounded by books at the library. She lived as loud and as bold as being born to the Grid allowed. As love found her sisters, Lily longed for it too. But she had yet to find a man who wanted her as she was.

That all changed in one day. Not only was she held hostage but Evan also learned his heart had been held for ransom for far too long. Could they rescue each other? With the help of some of your favorite characters from The Everyday Heroes World, they just might.

If you like an alpha hero, Evan is for you! Add in the fact that this is a paranormal and I was here for it. It took me a little bit to get into this book even though I loved Lily and her sass and Evan and his alpha-ness. I was a huge fan of Lily from the beginning, her attitude LEAPS off the page and she LIVES to sass Evan. And I loved me some Evan! Definitely a great character and built to be a book boyfriend, with his alpha-ness, his tormented soul, his principles. Just everything. This is totally the book to read if you like alphas, paranormal, sassy heroines and a good storyline!
4 stars!

Hostage is written in New York Times Bestselling author K. Bromberg’s Everyday Heroes World, which is one of two KB Worlds projects. With over 100 authors, who were selected by and are working with K. Bromberg, these stories are fan fiction at its finest—and sexiest. Devoted fans of the Driven and Everyday Heroes series will have the opportunity to revisit their favorite characters and settings. Jas T. Ward is bringing the sexiness of first responders to the page writing in the steamy, swoon-worthy world of the Malone brothers. You can find out more about K.

Meet Jas

Ms. Ward was born and raised in Texas, Ward is a mixed bag of creativity spinning tales of paranormal, urban fantasy and even dark romance and horror; wrapped within a love story. She’s been dared to write a few contemporary romances but even those reads have characters that are real and twisted by their creator.

Ward publishes her wildly popular Paranormal/Sci-Fi romances as an indie and her contemporary romances were picked up for traditional publication with Hot Tree Publishing in 2020.

A mother of three diverse and independent bold children, Ward prides herself for being the “Queen Niche’ Bitch” which is her handy way of saying she sucks writing to market. But her readers don’t seem to mind.

Blurb:
Love, life…death—a few seconds can change everything.

I’m a criminal defense lawyer determined to build my own firm from the ground up.
My ex, the new prosecutor, complicates things; especially when the animosity between us infects the whole courtroom.

Then I meet Callum—my brother’s friend, a bounty hunter, and the accused in my new case.
The charge—sexual battery.
The supposed victim—a bail jumper he’s been chasing halfway across the country.

My instincts tell me he’s innocent, which I set about proving, but I didn’t expect to fall for him in the process.
Our mutual attraction becomes a tempting complication neither of us can resist.

When a body turns up, Callum and I realize a war is raging around us; and one of us is the target. With an ex-husband eager to take me down, and a woman determined to ruin Callum, we need to figure out who the perpetrator is…before time runs out.

Grayson:
It was
shocking how quick love could turn to hate.
In a matter
of seconds, life could be happy and destroyed.
Trust was a
mythical, make believe fairytale. 
Eight-years
of my life was ruined because I trusted. I wouldn’t be making that mistake
again.
At least,
that was what I told myself.
Life got
lonely.
And I fell
in love with someone I had never met.
Online.
She lived
across the country. That was so much easier than dealing face to face.
Online
dating didn’t make the relationship real.
Until she
showed up on my doorstep.
Not looking
a day over eighteen. 
I wasn’t
sure if I should be shocked or used to life dealing me a bad hand. 
And what
the hell was I supposed to do with an eight-year old kid that gets dropped at
my door saying I was his dad?
The
eighteen-year-old smoke show brought trouble.
The
eight-year-old was chronically ill.
I grew to
love them both and now two difference threats could take them away from me.
I wouldn’t
let another eight-years of my life get ruined.
Not when I
finally learned how to live again.

Cover Reveal ~ My Brother’s Roommate ~ by ~ Kendall Ryan

 

The My Brother’s Roommate

By Kendall Ryan

Release Day: December 1, 2020

 

About the Book

There are a few things you should know about my brother’s roommate.

Wolfie Cox is . . . complicated. Terminally sexy, and more importantly, he has an impressive stick lodged so far up his ass, he’s about as emotionally available as a chinchilla. Actually, that might be an insult to the chinchilla community.

So, naturally, I want to ride him like a bicycle.

He thinks I hate him. Mostly because I’ve led him to believe this. It’s easier than admitting the alternative.

And while Wolfie is about as soft and cuddly as a fork, I’m the opposite. A good girl. Reliable. Conscientious. Oh, and completely panicked about an upcoming work conference.

Wolfie’s usually allergic to altruism, so when my brother volun-tells him to help me out by escorting me to said conference where everyone else will have a plus-one . . . I say thanks, but no thanks. Surprisingly, Wolfie is unflinching about this. And that’s the story about how I got stuck in a hotel with my brother’s hot (grouchy) roommate.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

In all seriousness, this isn’t a game to me, and hormones aside, I need to impress my boss this week so the promotion I’ve worked hard for doesn’t get handed to his spineless nephew. But with Wolfie and me sharing a hotel bed, things get confusing quickly.

Cover Reveal ~ The Billionaire’s Cinderella ~ by ~ Ava Ryan

 

Ava Ryan has revealed the cover for The Billionaire’s Cinderella,

the third, standalone book in the Fairy Tale Billionaires series!

 

Releasing October 22, 2020

 

It only took one night with her to make me

reconsider everything I thought I wanted.

 

Marriage and relationships aren’t for me.

I have no desire to revisit my failures. Now I work hard and play hard–period.

Until suddenly there she is. Sexy. Unexpected. Sweet. Unforgettable.

One unprecedented night with her only whets my appetite for more.

She’s been burned before, which makes her suspicious of me. Doesn’t think she’s good enough, that I’d prefer someone more… society.

If only she knew how uninterested I am in other women since I first laid eyes on her.

And I hope she never knows the things I think about when I look at her now.

Fairy tales endings are meant for children’s books. I know that.

But I write my own stories…

Universal — getbook.at/CenteredEF

Liam Williamson was a legend in the NHL.

Or rather . . . his family was legend.

He was the least talented of his family of hockey players—with his father and two older brothers seriously outplaying, outscoring, and out-succeeding Liam’s limited achievements. He’d been traded to four teams in as many years and it was widely accepted that his career was nearly at an end.

Now he was with the San Francisco Gold, barely on the lineup and just waiting for notice that he’d been scratched from every game. His trade to another—and probably final—team was imminent.

That was that. He was embracing the fact that his playing days were over—

Then he met Mia. She was funny and sweet and the most beautiful woman he’d ever laid eyes on. Unsurprisingly, Liam had fallen and fallen fast.

But he was about to be traded and Mia lived in San Francisco. Her life was there . . .

And how in the hell was he going to leave the woman he loved?

About the Author:

USA Today bestselling author, Elise Faber, loves chocolate, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and hockey (the order depending on the day and how well her team — the Sharks! — are playing). She and her husband also play as much hockey as they can squeeze into their schedules, so much so that their typical date night is spent on the ice.

Book Tour & Review ~ The Dating Itinerary ~ by ~ Brooke Williams

THE DATING ITINERARY

by Brooke Williams
Publication Date: September 7, 2020
Genres: Adult, Entangled: Lovestruck, Contemporary, Romance, Romantic Comedy

SYNOPSIS

As if it wasn’t bad enough to be deemed the “most single person” at her magazine’s office, budding reporter Penny has now been tapped to write a series of features called “The Dating Game.” From speed dating to Tinder, old-fashioned matchmakers to up-and-coming “dark dating,” Penny now has to go on a lot of dates. Silver lining: meeting new people should be fun, right? But running into her old rival, George, at her first dating event is decidedly not. Not only does the arrogant know-it-all have zero trouble attracting women, wherever Penny goes, somehow he just. Keeps. Showing. Up.

Geo knows he’s right on the cusp of writing success with the chance to have his own syndicated column. All he has to do is follow his agent’s ideas for showcasing different dating avenues, and he’ll pull in enough to help his sister’s non-profit women’s shelter get off the ground. Sure, his itinerary is starting to look strangely similar to his old rival Penny’s, but all’s fair in love and syndication, right?

The more they look for love in all the wrong places, though, the more they start to wonder if it was right in front of their noses all along. Still, the brutal dating scene just might end them, if these two don’t kill each other first.

 

First, it took me ENTIRELY too long to “get” Penny Coyne and her sisters, Quarter, Dime and Nickel. I blame me not getting much sleep and being slow to understand… That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!

I loved the premise of this story and I loved that George went by Geo – makes him that much more insufferable. I’ve never heard anyone shorten George to Geo. So I wasn’t a huge fan of his name. I much preferred the “G” that his sister calls him.

Geo and Penny were hysterical together. Although I’m glad both had to grow in the book. Geo seemed too immature, and Penny just didn’t seem like she put herself out there. This book was full of funny dates and what tribulations dating can be.

4 stars!

Cover Reveal ~ A Date With A Foodie ~ by ~ Heidi McLaughlin & LP Dover

Title: A Date with a Foodie
Series: The Dating Series
Author: Heidi McLaughlin & LP Dover
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: September 15, 2020
Cover Design: MadHat Studios

 

New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors Heidi McLaughlin and L.P. Dover come together for a sexy new series that delivers romance for every season!

 

 
Spicy sweetness. Mouthwatering meat. Finger-licking goodness. 
 
The restaurant community is abuzz with excitement. World renowned food critic August Cahill is coming to Chicago and a review from him can make or break even the best chef’s career. 
 
As much as Madeline Metcalf would love for him to sample her goodies, she fears her bistro hasn’t made enough of a name for itself yet to earn his attentions. Thankfully, her nervous energy is put to good use when Adam, a smokin’ hottie she dated her freshman year of college, pops in for a bite. The heat between them has marinated with time, creating a savory dish of desire. 
 
When Madeline learns August Cahill will be at the Taste of Chicago event, Adam insists they go. Dragging her to the pulled pork cook off, he feeds her succulent tastes that leave juices dribbling down her chin. But when Madeline learns Adam has been keeping a startlingly truth from her, it cooks up a recipe for disaster. 
 
Crank up the heat and slather on the sauce, this kitchen is getting hot!
 

She flattens out the paper and points at one of the articles. “Check this out. Guess who’s coming to the Taste of Chicago?” 

Heart racing, I grab the paper and slide it my way. The second I see August Cahill’s name, I freeze. Every restaurant owner in the country fears him, but yet, also wants him in their restaurants. He’s a food critic who can make or break you. I’ve seen restaurants go under after a scathing review from him. That’s how terrifying he is. But then, the restaurants he’s praised are appearing on TV shows and making bank. Those owners will be set for life. 

“What if he comes to our restaurant while he’s here?” Katy asks. “He never uses his real name.” 

The thought of him coming into my tavern is exciting and terrifying, but there’s no way he’ll choose to come here over the hundreds of restaurants in Chicago. “I doubt we’ll have to worry about that, Katy. He’s not going to come here. I’m a nobody.” 

Katy scoffs. “Seriously, Maddy. You’re not a nobody. We’ve been open for a year and we’re booked every single night. That’s not being a nobody.” 

Shrugging, I close the newspaper. “Still, I don’t think he’ll come here. Would it be nice? Of course. But if he hates our food, I can kiss this place goodbye.” 

She shakes her head. “Our reviews are phenomenal, and we have over five hundred of them. That’s pretty damn good after just one year.” 

“True. If he’s going to be at the Taste of Chicago in a couple of days, we have to believe he’ll be tasting our barbecue. I need to make it epic.” 

Katy takes me by the shoulders. “You always do. We’re going to kick everyone’s ass at that event. Just you wait and see.” 

We’re going to be up against the best barbecue makers in the city. I know my pulled pork is amazing, but is it the best? We will see.
