New Release & Review ~ My #MNGirl ~ by ~ A.M. Brooks

♦ ♦ ♦

I was hidden so we could be safe.

I survived so I could reclaim my life.

Now, everything has been destroyed by the same evil always lurking in the shadows.

Time is running out and my world keeps unraveling.

All I can do is put my trust in the boy with the messy blond hair, icicle eyes and lips that tell lies.

Can the Midwest Boys protect me?

The body count around town would suggest otherwise.

My job was simple. Keep her alive, make sure she follows the rules and keep her out of trouble.

I’ll win back her trust and keep her safe no matter what it costs me.

The girl with the purple hair and eyes that flare to life when I’m near are my undoing.

She used to be my enemy.

Now death and destruction are following her and loyalty has been stained by spilled blood.

Someone waged a war against Rogue. It’s time to answer back.

I had not heard about this series before but yes, you do need to read book 1, #MNGirl first. This book picks up where that book left off. Saylor, Ciaran, Kai and Silas have definitely changed since we met them in book 1. And I’ve tried for both books to figure out how to say Ciaran and I’ve got nothing. I’m thinking Ci is like “Cee” or “Sy”? I could go either way. You tell me what you think.

This book, well this series, totally took me for a ride. I was not expecting what I read, but that isn’t a bad thing. There is romance, suspense, mystery, intrigue, and so much more. I will be re-reading this book again because I’m sure there are things I’ve missed that I will pick up the next time I read it.

I can’t wait to read more of this series. I need Silas and Kai’s stories STAT! Silas definitely intrigues me and I cannot wait to see his future.

5 stars!

I tell myself I can have three days. Three days to stay under my covers, eyes closed, be numb and drown out the world, before I need to make plans. Everything I thought I knew is gone. The pain in my chest roars and pushes against my organs, until I let a silent scream escape. My whole body hurts. It’s unbearable to do nothing, and yet, I have no energy to get up. I don’t want to face my reality. She was just sitting here, smiling and making plans for a future. Their faces are all I see when my eyes close. Those images on the screen at Rogue are all I see when my eyes are open. I can’t escape and that thought takes my breath away. I’m trapped.

New Release ~ #MNGirl ~ by ~ A.M. Brooks

My family’s scandal is my fall from grace. The night of my seventeenth birthday leads to the final event that catapults my future in a different direction. One call for help turns into my only chance of survival.

Now, the only way to stay safe is to keep hidden.

Hidden in a small town in the middle of “No-where”, Minnesota, away from my friends, my prestigious school, and my family, I have to mesh with the other hidden children in order to survive.

Though, it’s not just the Bogeyman that keeps me up at night…

Ciaran Jakobe, with his frosty blue eyes and instant dislike for me sets my nerves on end. There is no escaping his sharp words and constant torment. Every push from him sparks a fire of fight inside me. Every smirk from his full, pink lips makes me want to punch him in the face. He’s my nemesis and my dark hero.

I may be paying for my parent’s mistakes but I won’t let a Midwest Boy get the best of me.

It isn’t the screaming or crying that shakes me awake. It isn’t the front door being ripped from its hinges or the shattering of the glass coffee table that she is thrown into. What pulls me from the deep recesses of my dream world is the feeling that I’m suffocating. A pressure across my face yanks me from my sleep, my body jumping in response and my eyes flying open.

“Shhhh!” Mila begs me. It’s her little hand that’s covering my mouth. Tears slip down her cheeks and snot runs from her nose. Her tiny frame is shaking inside the flannel nightgown she loves to wear this time of year.

“They’re in the house. They’re hurting Mom,” her young voice cracks. I can tell a sob is waiting to escape. I’m fully awake now, my body moving in sync with my heartbeats. Blood rushes to my ears while I tiptoe across the floor and carefully move my hand to nudge the door open farther. Mila’s hand snakes out, grabbing my arm painfully, as tears fall faster and faster down her face. “No!” She mouths in silence, but damn, the words echo loudly in my brain.

“It’s okay,” I whisper, my hand peeling her fingernails from my skin. I push the door open farther, but not far enough for the hinges to groan. Biting my lip, I turn my head and look out.

New Audio Release ~ Hearts & Bruises ~ by ~ A.M. Brooks

With love comes pain.

And with pain comes scars.

Believe me, I have had my share of it all.

After my mother’s death, my father couldn’t deal.

So once again, we’re moving.

To a town full of lies, darkness, and corruption.

All masked in sunshine and money.

But then I meet him…

My biggest mistake.

My biggest temptation.

A royal pain-in-the-ass.

And Darrian King is no prince.

He’s controlling, aggressive, and downright wrong for me.

But what he dishes out,

I give right back.

After all, love hurts.

And so do we.

Sales Blitz ~ When Demons Hide ~ by ~ A.M. Brooks

♦ ♦ ♦

The City of Sin holds more than secrets.

He doesn’t remember me.

But, I remember him.

The mysterious and brooding Jay McCall.

His touch. His kiss. His hands on me.

It’s burned into my mind.

The one incredible night we shared.

But, that was before…

Before I lost my brother.

Before grief held me hostage.

He’s back, and it has nothing and everything to do with me.

The secrets he’s keeping are tangled with my brother’s death.

My heart. My body.

At war over a man I barely know.

A man who knows the truth.

He wants me to trust him.

I want to.

But to survive in a place where demons hide,

I must trust no one… not even myself.
