ALLTHEREIS_heartwarming2

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Violet Duke debuts an emotional series about letting go, starting over, and trusting in the redemptive power of love.

Emma Stevens made a fresh start in the small town of Juniper Hills, but she still lives with the guilt of an impossible choice from her past: saving her sister—but leaving her stepbrother behind—in a fire that destroyed their home. The boy next door may have dragged them to safety, but he also caused the fire that devastated her family. She swore she’d never forgive him, so she’s stunned when he shows up on her doorstep.

Jake Rowan has never been able to escape the worst day of his life, when he took the fall for his older brother, who started a tragic fire. Years later, he’s carved out a life as a carpenter, but when he runs into Emma again, he’s reminded of everything he’s lost—and everything he still longs for.

Jake has never forgotten Emma, the dream girl whose life he destroyed. And she’s never stopped thinking about her first crush. As they grow closer—and old secrets are unearthed—will they be able to help each other heal, or will their hearts remain broken and burdened by the past?

About the Author:

NEW YORK TIMES & USA TODAY bestselling author Violet Duke is a former professor of English Education ecstatic to be on the other side of the page now writing emotion-rich stories with fun, everyday characters and sweet, sexy match-ups.

She lives in Hawai’i with her kids (Violet & Duke) and Mr. Violet Duke (their ringleader), with a PJs-and-rubber-slippers work dress code she takes very seriously.

Before That Night
Before that night, Addison Milan had been just a college dropout secretly raising her two young siblings in a beat-up minivan she’d bought with her first semester’s tuition
refund–the only money her addict mother hadn’t taken off with when she’d
abandoned them nearly two years ago. 
Before that night, Caine Spencer had been just a rough, gruff cop sent to check
out the phoned-in claims of suspected child neglect involving the same woman
he’d met just months prior when she’d first served him the city’s worst diner
coffee…which he’d been drinking daily ever since. 
Before that night, Addison would never have thought the man she’d been fighting hard not to fall for–her only friend in her new shadow of a life–would be in
a position to rip her family apart.Before that night, Caine would never have believed any woman could make him fall head over heels, let alone make him feel so damn compelled to look the other way when it came to his job.
Then that one perfect night changed everything.

Every Night Without You

Seven years. 


Seven damn years of wondering whether the woman was still alive…whether she’d spent the last two thousand five hundred fifty-five days wondering if he was still alive.

Wondering whether that night was as burned into her memory as it was his.

Seven years having his heart tethered to Addison―and now she’s back. With even more reasons to run than she’d had then.

Only this time, Caine isn’t letting the gorgeous little flight risk out of his sight.

Regardless of how noble her reasons may be. 

“Violet Duke is my go-to read when I just want to immerse myself in a captivating romance.” – NYT bestselling author J.S. Cooper 

EVERY NIGHT WITHOUT YOU (Bk 2 of 2) takes place seven years after BEFORE THAT NIGHT (Bk 1 of 2), and is the conclusion of Caine & Addison’s story of love, sacrifice, and the lengths one will run―and chase―when their past threatens their future.

TBRreview
Violet Duke is one of my #mustread authors! And Caine and Addison’s story just cements why she is!

Caine is so alpha-y goodness and growly and has a crazy group of brothers/friends and I just love them! Oops and sister. Can’t forget Lia. And Alec. Even though he’s Addison’s friend first, he fits right in and I love it. Can’t wait for his story!

Addison and her siblings have had a crap hand delivered to them. But Addison is NOT going to let that happen any more. She’s going to make sure Kylie and Tanner want for nothing and she does an AMAZING job with them. I wish there were more kids like they are.

Caine and Addison’s story spans years but it’s well worth it. And in this box set, you get them all in one! 

5 stars!

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CHARACTERS!

CONNOR

Occupation: Corporate Attorney & Anonymous Philanthropist
Hobby: Working on a muscle car he bought for himself that no one knows about. And sex.
Well known for: His notorious courtroom reputation, and his equally notorious reputation with women
College: Columbia

BRIAN

Occupation: High School Business Economics Teacher & Football coach
Hobby: Building things with his hands. And being a good single dad to his preteen daughter.
Well known for: Loving and caring for his late wife for over a decade while she battled Huntington’s
College: Arizona State

ABBY

Occupation: Doctoral Student & Middle School Tutor
Hobby: Cooking all the beloved dishes from every country in the world. And do-gooding.
Well known for: Being able to keep up with Skylar, Brian’s daughter, in the consumption of sweets
College: Arizona State

Abby describing Connor:

With the contrast of his sexy, espresso dark hair—almost black in this light—and his piercing ice-blue eyes that always looked deep in thought and so hauntingly deep at times, the man was a danger to female kind the world over.

Abby describing Brian:

Charming farmer-boy-next-door look with a body that belonged on a billboard selling grit-covered denim and boots like it was going out of style, and hair that always looked slightly overdue for a haircut…and all the sexier for it.

Connor describing Abby

Wide, guileless eyes—a charming novelty he was positive he hadn’t encountered in years—untinted lips, a light tan that actually appeared to be from the sun, and deep, dark reddish brown locks done up in a ponytail more comfortable than fashionable. She was the very definition of a buxom beach babe brunette, if such a category existed, with an appealing blend of innocence and intelligence behind a pair of unaccountably sexy, cliché-free glasses.

Brian describing Abby:

From the day they’d met, Abby had always been the sweet, gorgeous ‘nice girl’ with the soulful doe eyes, killer curves, and the incredible smile that always made his day. Not classically stunning as his late wife had been, but just as captivating in her own unique way. More than that, she had an unparalleled inner beauty and a trademark quirkiness that had immediately drawn him in, catapulted her to the status of his best friend practically from their first conversation.

He’s the ruthless lawyer with a not-so-little black book. And one simple rule as unyielding as his heart: nothing more than a month.

She’s the doctoral student helping to raise his niece. His brother’s best friend. And the valium for his soul he had no business wanting.

To be fair, she did ask him for advice—on what she could do to stop being ‘the nice girl’ for a little bit.

All he did was answer truthfully.

“Try something new that excites you.”

…Preferably him.

He’s her best friend. The good guy–the polar opposite of his brother Connor. The one everyone’s hell-bent on believing is her perfect match. But the thing is, that was just never an option for her with Brian.

…Until now.

For over a decade, through his high school sweetheart’s illness and eventual passing, Abby had been his pal, his rock. A second mother to his young daughter. His heart simply wasn’t free to love her then.

But it is now.

Now that Connor’s left her with a shattered heart to put back together on her own, Brian has exactly one chance to speak up or forever hold his peace.

Blurb:

Being a single dad who’s loved and lost twice in his life, all Brian’s looking for now is something casual for a change. Unfortunately, being the nice guy poster boy and all, he isn’t exactly versed in the fine art of flings. So he looks to the outrageously unique and button-pushing Tessa for a crash course.

There’s absolutely no way he’s falling in love with this one…right?

Tessa has no idea why she told Brian that she was some sort of fling expert. She’s never been flung before and she sure as heck doesn’t know how to begin flinging a guy like him. Not only does the man have as many demons as she does, but he’s got her thinking of the one thing she stopped hoping for years ago.

A happily ever after.

“Emotionally charged with wonderful characters, Violet Duke made me laugh and cry in this incredible romance. One of the best I’ve read this year.” — NYT Bestselling Author J.S. Scott

“I love the way Violet weaves real life into her fictional characters, and I applaud her for tackling issues most authors wouldn’t think of using in a romance book.” — Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews

“Refreshing, engaging, sweet, and spunky all at the same time. This book tugs at your heartstrings in those oh-so-sweet ways…definitely a keeper!” — The Naughty Vixen Blog

About BEFORE THAT NIGHT

Before that night, Caine Spencer had been just a rough, gruff cop sent to check out the phoned-in claims of suspected child neglect involving the same woman he’d met a month ago when she’d first served him the city’s worst diner coffee…which he’d been drinking daily ever since.

Then that one perfect night changed everything.

BEFORE THAT NIGHT (Book 1) chronicles the destiny-altering events that take place seven years prior to EVERY NIGHT WITHOUT YOU (Book 2), Caine & Addison’s emotional story of love, sacrifice, and the lengths one will run—and chase—when their past threatens their future.

Get a peek at BEFORE THAT NIGHT:

Christ, she just kept getting sweeter every day.

When Addison rounded the counter and hopped up onto the empty stool next to him so she could stick up another collage of carefully cut, colored, and glittered Easter eggs on the wall, Caine felt his brain blitz out for a second or two. The woman was a petite little thing, but she had curves for days. And that perfect hourglass figure of hers was currently inches from his face.

Good lord.

“So you don’t think your brother’s making a good business decision?” she asked him quizzically as she wobbled a bit to try and reach a spot about a foot beyond her reach.

His hands shot out to grab her waist and steady her.

What in the world were they talking about again?

“Thanks. I’m good now.” She finished taping up the eggs and blushed from the apples of her cheeks to the tips of her ears when he picked her up off the stool and gently settled her down on the ground. “Um, yeah. Again, thanks for the assist.” Quick as a skittish kitten, she scurry-shuffled back behind the counter.

Meanwhile, Caine felt like his entire body was drifting in slow-motion—his brain especially, which was taking its sweet time un-fuzzing. Jesus, she’d felt good in his arms.

Release Day Blitz ~ Jackson’s Trust ~ by ~ Violet Duke

 

 

Title: Jackson’s Trust

Series: Fourth Down #1  

Author: Violet Duke
Publisher: Loveswept

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release
Date: March 8, 2016

 

Blurb

New York Times bestselling author Violet Duke kicks off her fun and sexy new Fourth Down series with a heartwarming friends-to-lovers romance between a no-strings-attached sports analyst and the hottest damn tomboy he’s ever met.It’s no secret that sports analyst Jackson Gray doesn’t do relationships. What is a secret, however, is the reason why. Jackson’s life is . . . complicated. And it doesn’t help that his current hands-off “friendship” is with the cute-as-hell new sideline reporter he’s assigned to train. Turns out, not only is the woman damn sweet, she also knows as much about football as he does. Like it or not though, Jackson has to remind himself that sex is the only thing he has to offer . . . until now.

Leila Hart’s fast-growing friendship with Jackson is something she’d never risk, no matter how unbelievably seductive the reward. Becoming an NFL sportscaster has always been the goal, and thanks to Jackson’s fierce support and mentoring, it all finally seems within reach. Problem is, a girl can only take so much of that sexy-as-sin voice whispering dirty, filthy football stats in her ear before she loses all self-control. A workplace romance with Jackson is a disaster waiting to happen, especially for someone with big dreams . . . and secrets of her own.

I’ve read a lot of Violet Duke’s books and I’ve loved them all.  Jackson’s Trust is no exception!  And it just makes me want to read MORE of her books, especially this series!!
Jackson is an uber alpha who doesn’t seem to be one at first.  More of a closet alpha but holy crap, he was definitely a HOT alpha later in the book.  But he’s also a truly nice guy and a sweetheart.  Jackson is definitely book boyfriend material ladies!
And Leila!  I LOVE her!  She is a no-nonsense broad (I hate that term but she defines it in my head) who has tried long and hard to play with the big boys in the male-dominated football commentary career track. And for that, I envy her greatly.  She has made a successful career from knowing facts and figures and stats about football players, coaches, plays, teams, trades, etc.
The one thing I couldn’t understand was the football.  I don’t understand football at all.  That being said, I appreciate and envy the time and dedication that went into the research for this book.  The statistical analysis that Jackson and Leila do is just outstanding.
Kudos and 5 stars!!
