EXCERPT

Trip 213.

The odd numbered ones are always my favorite. The trips where I crank the classic rock as loud as my truck’s speakers can handle and grin like a fool until my face hurts.

It’s been thirteen days since I’ve seen my little man. Thirteen days that have fucking sucked in comparison to the two I get to spend with him every other weekend. Those forty-eight hours are the highlight of my weeks and, truth be told, I live every day without Jett just so we can have ones like this.

I don’t mind the drive.

I don’t care that I’ve put a shit ton of miles on my truck, running back and forth between his mom’s house and mine.

I don’t give a damn that our visitation arrangement means I have to abandon my crew every other Friday afternoon, sometimes in the middle of a big job.

Nothing matters more than my boy and nothing ever will.

Having a kid was never part of the plan.

But four years later, he’s my only plan.

Just twenty-seven more miles to go.

Book Tour ~ Aspen – A Love Story ~ by ~ T.K. Lucaith

Title: Aspen – A Love Story

Author: T.K. Lucaith

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: March 4, 2021

Can the demons of our past ever be completely silenced?

Or are we doomed to carry them into every one of our relationships?

Devastated by the death of his wife, middle-aged businessman Marc Gray sells the development company they built together and moves his life to Aspen, Colorado. Leaving the business behind is easy; but the loss of his wife follows him as closely as a shadow.

On his first night in Aspen, Marc meets Susan. A graphic artist working for a NYC advertisement firm, she’s waiting tables to help support herself and her teenage daughter when Marc walks into her restaurant.

There’s something charming about the way Susan lives her life; ever on the edge financially, ever in search of her happy ending. Marc can’t help but find himself irresistibly drawn to her creative magnetism.

But as they dance around the beginnings of a cautious relationship, Marc and Susan struggle with past hurt and loss; as feelings grow between them, so do questions. Questions with difficult answers.

If they face the truth with honesty, could they finally yield to passion?

A poignant novel that explores the life experiences that follow us into new scenarios and leave their indelible mark on our interactions with others.

K. has a passion for good food and great wine while enjoying a really good love story. T. K. and family – which include two very spoiled cats – live in the Southwestern US.

New Release ~ Priceless Ink ~ by ~ Giulia Lagomarsino

Title: Priceless Ink

Series: The Cortell Brothers #5

Author: Giulia Lagomarsino

Genre: Small Town Romance

Release Date: March 8, 2021

Sofia

I couldn’t do it. All I saw when I looked at Graham was my life going down the drain.

He didn’t love me, which he made perfectly clear last night.

The corset was too tight and I was on the verge of a panic attack.

So, I ran…right into a sexy biker. He tore my dress and drove off into the sunset with me.

But that’s where this romance ends.

Joe

Imagine my surprise when a sexy bride came running out of a church, right to my bike.

She was hot as hell, and when she asked me to take her away, I was more than willing to oblige.

But then she opened her mouth and I found out who she really was.

She was irritating as hell, so I screwed with her just to have some fun.

The funny thing was, as much as I wanted to send her home, something inside me just wouldn’t allow that.

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.

Release Date: March 6, 2021

A past that defined a future…

Shade has a secret.

One he’s hidden most of his life.

Secrets created in his past.

Of a broken family. A little boy lost.

Of broken dreams. With only nightmares left in their wake.

As a prospect, his MC nicknamed him Shady because he’s quiet and keeps to himself.

As a patched member of the Blood Fury, he changed it to Shade, because that’s what he prefers… to stick to the shadows.

To remain unseen.

Then he sees her. A flicker of light at the end of a long, dark tunnel.

The only problem is, he may never escape that darkness until he sheds the chains of his past that weigh him down.

A juvenile dare from my best friend, involving my teacher, changes the course of my life. And the subtle glances across the room turn to something much more. Our chemistry is palpable, even though we try to hide it.

New Release & Review ~ Her Royal Fling ~ by ~ Jodie Larson

Her Royal Fling by Jodie Larson is now live!

It was only supposed to be for a few days.

When Mr. Tall, Dark, and Sexy asks me to play tour guide to him and his friends for their bachelor getaway weekend, I’m helpless to resist. Then again, I’ve always been a sucker for an accent, piercing blue eyes, and a panty-melting grin.

Luke and I shared an immediate attraction. From the moment our eyes met, I was a goner. I would have done practically anything for a little more time with him.

Even wanting to be his three-day vacation fling.

Reckless? Maybe. Do I regret it? Not a chance – even if I can’t get him out of my head.

When a wedding invitation shows up at my door, it takes all of half a second to make up my mind to see the man I can’t stop thinking about.

Only I may be in over my head.

Royally.

His Royal Plan – https://bit.ly/HRPGR

I stayed up WAAAAAYYYY to long reading this book! But Gia and Luke and their friends had me so wrapped up in their story!

Never have I been a bartender so I don’t know how real this scenario is, at least the group of hot, foreign guys being so chill. At least enough that she would accept the invite to hang out with them. I’ve only seem to gotten creepers that do that. But that’s neither here nor there.

Luke and Bryce might be my favorites, except for Gia. Gia is awesome! She sorta reminds me of a Rock Chick-type character. Which I love. She’s a beer-drinking, sports-loving, bartender and she makes no apologies for it. Luke is quite the charmer and definitely quietly sweet. Which makes sense since he’s trying to keep a secret, low-key profile while in the States.

I won’t tell you what happens but there is a bit of a cliffhanger which killed me last night but I know the rest of their story is coming soon!

5 stars!!

Series: Of the Gods #2

Author: Gina Sturino

Genre: Fantasy Romance

Release Date: February 26, 2021

“Gina created a world in the first book, Fruit of the Land, then gave us a totally new experience in Light of the Sky…equally wonderful! MUST READ!!” ~ 5 Star Amazon Review

Will she fly or will she fall?

After completing her divine mission in the mortal realm, Novalee is offered the ultimate reward: a station in the Kingdom, the heaven of heavens. Accepting this fate means she’ll become purely divine as an angel, no longer burdened by the ache of humanity.

Claiming her ticket to serenity should be an easy decision, but the repercussions—including losing the ability to transcend the realms—last an eternity. Unprepared to leave behind those she loves most, Nova questions her destiny and returns to the mortal realm in search of closure and answers.

Instead, she finds Dane.

Nova’s mysterious new neighbor has her swooning, but his yo-yo signals give her mental whiplash. As Dane and Nova fight an undeniable attraction, they find solace in one another, each seeking peace with the past. With Dane’s help, Nova sorts through her muddled, masked memories. But the bounty hunters of the divine are hot on her trail, and she must find closure before they find her.

The second book in author Gina Sturino’s Of the God series brings an unforgettable story of redemption, hope, and a love that defies fate.

While each book in the series can stand alone, reading them in order prevents spoilers and offers the best experience. Enjoy the journey!

They’ve lived in cities coast-to-coast and have settled in their hometown outside of Madison, Wisconsin, where they are raising their daughter.
