Blog Tour & Review ~ Runaway Groom ~ by ~ Lauren Layne

“Lauren Layne gets the red rose for this one, and fans of The Bachelor will fall in love with this thoroughly charming story.”—Kate O’Keeffe, bestselling author

For one charming playboy, getting cast on a Bachelor-esque reality TV show is the shock of a lifetime—until he finds love where he least expects it.
 
Gage Barrett’s reputation as a ladies’ man has been greatly exaggerated, but none of
that matters after a drunken bet lands him on Jilted, a reality TV show that
matches runaway grooms with wannabe brides. Now he’s stuck at a Hawaiian resort
with nineteen women competing to drag him back to the altar—and one contestant
who’s even more miserable than he is. Gage has no idea how feisty, independent
Ellie Wright wound up in the cast, but it’s obvious she hates his guts. And if
there’s one thing Gage likes, it’s a challenge. . . .
Ellie can’t believe she let her best friend talk her into exchanging her dignity for a
glorified bikini contest. Still, she could use the exposure—her business is
struggling—and she’ll probably be one of the first to get eliminated anyway.
But Gage isn’t the shallow jerk Ellie anticipated—and he’s in no rush to send
her home. As stolen kisses turn into secret trysts, she finds herself losing
track of what’s real and what’s for the camera. With the wedding finale
looming, this runaway groom is tempting Ellie to start believing in storybook
endings.

Ok I don’t like the show The Bachelor or any of the offshoots. I just don’t. This book is based off a Bachelor-type show except this one is featuring a Runaway Groom – hence the title…

Gage is less than thrilled to being the “bachelor” on this reality show, but a bet is a bet and he’s going to do this show – much as he doesn’t want to. He’d rather not be a spectacle on tv and have all these women “fighting” for him.

Ellie is only a contestant on this show for one reason and it’s NOT to land herself the runaway groom – even if he is a gorgeous movie star. So she’s trying to do whatever she can to get sent home. Except Gage is finding Ellie useful and keeps her around.

For someone who doesn’t like The Bachelor and those type of shows, this was a very enjoyable read!

Blog Tour & Review ~ An Ex For Christmas ~ by ~ Lauren Layne

Named Best Book of the Month by Amazon
AN EX FOR CHRISTMAS
Love Unexpectedly
Lauren Layne
Releasing Nov 7, 2017
Loveswept

 

She’s making a list—and checking it twice. But is there a nice guy among all her naughty exes? The New York Times bestselling author of Blurred Lines returns with a charming friends-to-lovers rom-com.

When a psychic tells spunky, superstitious Kelly Byrne that she’s already met
her true love, she becomes obsessed with the idea of tracking him down before
Christmas. Kelly immediately writes up an “Ex List” and starts contacting old
boyfriends to figure out which one is the one. When her college sweetheart
rolls into town, Kelly convinces herself that they’re meant to be. The trouble
is, sparks are flying with someone she’s never given a chance: her best friend,
Mark.

 

Mark Blakely has watched the guys on Kelly’s list break her heart, and he’s not
looking forward to watching them do it all over again. Mark’s always been there
for her, but the timing’s never worked out for their relationship to be
something more. Now, just as Mark is ready to move on, the sexual tension
between them is suddenly off the charts. With Christmas morning around the
corner, he just hopes Kelly will wake up and realize that everything she wants
has been right in front of her all along.

I absolutely LOVED reading this story!! Kelly is a single girl in NYC and getting ready to head home for her favorite holiday, Christmas. Kelly is UBER superstitious and when she runs into an older woman who tells her that she has already met her forever and she will again before Christmas. So of course, Kelly has to make a list of all her exes so she can run into “the one” again.

Mark has been Kelly’s BFF forever. They’ve been super close and even help each other out. But Mark is not looking forward to Kelly’s half-baked plan to get back in touch with all her exes that broke her heart. Especially when things seem to be a little sensitive between them.

A great read! Lauren Layne has been one of my favorite authors for a long time. I love everything she writes and will definitely buy once I see she has a new book out.

5 stars!

Sale Blitz ~ After The Kiss ~ by ~ Lauren Layne

She needed him for a story. He needed her for a bet. 

Wanting each other? Not part of the plan.

AFTER THE KISS
Sex, Love & Stiletto #1
Lauren Layne
Loveswept

Lauren Layne kicks off her Sex, Love & Stiletto
series with a delightful short novel! In After the Kiss, the
star columnist of Stiletto magazine will do anything for a
story. Anything . . . except fall in love.

Julie
Greene loves flings. Loves steamy first dates, sizzling first kisses, and every
now and then, that first sexy romp between the sheets. Comfy pants, sleepy
Sundays, movie nights on the couch? Shudder. But when Julie gets assigned the
hardest story of her career—a first-person account of that magical shift
between dating and “I do”—she’ll need a man brave enough to give a total
commitment-phobe a chance at more.

Normally, Mitchell Forbes would be exactly that man. A devastatingly hot
workaholic who tends to stay in relationships for far too long, he should be
the perfect subject for Julie’s “research.” But what Julie doesn’t know is that
Mitchell is looking to cut loose for once in his life. And the leggy journalist
notorious for avoiding love is exactly the type of no-strings fling he’s
looking for. In other words, Mitchell is the polar opposite of what Julie needs
right now. And, at the same time, he’s exactly what she wants.
