THIS IS A STAND-ALONE, Contemporary Romance: Due to language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

For some people falling in love was a happy, glowing experience. For Briar Kelly and Arrow Donovan it was more like getting hit by a freight train.

Caring for one another was never an easy feat. They constantly fought to hold their feelings inside, not wanting to jeopardize their friendship. Then, Arrow left for the Marines, and everything changed. Briar was shattered. Arrow was hurt.

While Briar told herself she’d never let another man affect her in such a way, Arrow still remained in the forefront of her mind. For Arrow, his memories of Briar kept him alive in both of his near death experiences. When Arrow’s demons threatened to drag him under, Briar was there, pulling him from the darkness.

“What ifs” keep piling up while resentment and redemption battles continue; will Briar and Arrow be able to find their happily ever after, or will this be one war that Arrow can’t win?

FIGHTING REDEMPTION

Ryan Kendall is broken. He understands pain. He knows the hand of violence and the ache of loss. He knows what it means to fail those who need you. Being broken doesn’t stop him wanting the one thing he can’t have; Finlay Tanner. Her smile is sweet and her future bright. She’s the girl he grew up with, the girl he loves, the girl he protects from the world, and from himself.

At nineteen, Ryan leaves to join the Australian Army. After years of training he becomes an elite SAS soldier and deploys to the Afghanistan war. His patrol undertakes the most dangerous missions a soldier can face. But no matter how far he runs, or how hard he fights, his need for Finlay won’t let go.

Returning home after six years, one look is all it takes to know he can’t live without her. But sometimes love isn’t enough to heal what hurts. Sometimes people like him can’t be fixed, and sometimes people like Finlay deserve more than what’s left.

This is a story about war and the cost of sacrifice. Where bonds are formed, and friendships found. Where those who are strong, fall hard. Where love is let go, heartache is born, and heroes are made. Where one man learns that the hardest fight of all, is the fight to save himself.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Kate McCarthy grew up in a small town outside of Port Macquarie, Australia. Raised in a house just a short walk to the beach, Kate enjoyed the peaceful, relaxed atmosphere and friendships that come from being raised in a friendly, small town area.
She now resides in Brisbane, Australia, a city in the state of Queensland where she works as an accountant, along with a sideline wedding cake business and her writing.
She is married with two children, has two dogs and house in the suburbs, and a pile of friends and family dotted all over the country that help keep her sane.
When she’s not busy running after naughty kids, filthy dogs, crunching numbers, piping buttercream and writing books, you can find her curled up in bed in the early hours of the morning reading new books and re-reading old favourites. Her favourite books are the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J.R. Ward in which she longs to eventually join the brotherhood and change her name to Phierce Mutha.

COMING BACK TO YOU

At one time twenty three year old Maura had it all, loving parents, a best friend and a gorgeous boyfriend. Slowly over the years things were being ripped from her little by little. Her boyfriend left right out of high school to join the Marines. Her parents died a while later, leaving her on her own. She only had her best friend Ruby to rely on and keep her afloat while she dealt with her losses. Ruby has been the one constant and still remains her best friend after meeting in high school.

Finally Maura’s life was seemingly better, as she graduated college and opened up her own catering business, she was her own boss and life was normal again. But like always in life, once you get comfortable a ball drops. That’s when Pierson comes back to their hometown and back into Maura’s life, turning her world on it’s axis.

Pierson has demons of his own after serving in the military for five years. Tormented from his past and present, he has to come to terms with everything that has happened. He hopes to make amends with his first love.

Can Maura forgive Pierson for leaving all those years ago? Can they love each other like they used to? Things can never be what they used to be, but love was worth the fight. Wasn’t it.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I’ve always had my nose inside of a book ever since I can remember. And I thought Id try my hand at writing, and Ive wrote ever since I was young, never showing anyone what I was writing. Initially I started writing Coming Back to You without intending to publish, but my hubby of 15 years encouraged me to publish it. And I did. I cant imagine never writing. Its in my blood.

My mind is always wondering, plotting and full of ideas. I think my hubs questions my sanity sometimes, because I say my characters are real. They feel real to me.

And I hope my stories make some sort of impact to you readers. I love hearing from you and enjoy talking with you.

CRAZY GOOD

Before there were bikers, or fighters, or even good old-fashioned jerks, there were Navy SEALs. They put the bad in badass because, well…it’s their job.

Navy SEAL Maverick Hart has everything. Women want him. Grown men idolize him. Little boys want to grow up and be like him. The job, the glory—it’s all his. Not because it’s handed to him…because he works hard for it. The second his sights lock on something, he owns it—or destroys it. Unfortunately he does both at the same time.

Windsor Forbes only takes calculated risks in her profession and in her personal life. After being left at the altar by the only person she’s ever loved, the very last thing she’s looking for is a relationship—especially the insane brand an arrogant Navy SEAL is offering. Hesitant, yet trusting to a fault, she gives in.

She knew she shouldn’t take the chance, especially a second time, but love is irrational and their love is perfect, infallible. Or so she thought…

The downfall to having everything is you have that much more to lose. A man like Maverick can’t have it all without something slipping out of grasp.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Rachel grew up in a small, quiet town full of loud talkers. Her words were always only loud on paper. She has been writing stories and creating characters for as long as she can remember. After living on the west coast for many years she recently moved to Virginia Beach, VA.

IGNITE

After nearly a year and a half of grieving the loss of her husband, twenty-seven year old Alexa Sullivan Tate is headed back to her hometown after a decade of being away. She has no idea her high school crush, Jace McAllister, the guy who stole her heart the same night that he broke it, is more than ready to pick up the pieces.

Jace has spent the last ten years in the Army defusing bomb after bomb, trying to forget the girl who ignited all his passions. Little does he know that the spark still exists.

Ten years ago they had smoldering chemistry, but the spark between them now might light a fuse that leads to an explosion even Jace can’t stop. Not that he wants to. If only Alexa can get past her guilt and trust her heart again.

But how do you put it all on the line when you’ve already lost everything once before?

*Mature Audiences only, 18+. While this is a series, each book will be standalone.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I’m a twenty six year old book junkie who is also obsessed with sports. Bengals, Buckeyes, Reds are my teams!

COVER REVEAL ~ Compulsive Fascinations by N. Isabelle Blanco

Aug 20

Event Organized by
❤ MaE Book Tours & Promo Stars Services ❤

❤ Cover Design by: N. Isabelle Blanco ❤

Synopsis

You get hurt once; you assume that’s the norm. You see others suffer; you assume that’s the norm, too.

At least, that’s what Livana once did. One rough go-around was enough for her. After that, she kept it simple, no strings attached. It was just easier that way. Even necessary.

Until she went out one night and met Calum Alexander, a man whose intensity broke through each of her defenses, leaving her vulnerable.

Afraid to fall in love, she tries to keep some of her walls up around herself, even though Calum is determined not to let her.

Faced with a man that seems intent on possessing her, Liv knows it’s a mere matter of time before she no longer has a choice.

That is…until Calum’s own insecurities come to the fore, throwing their new, fragile relationship into a tailspin.

Will the feelings between them be strong enough to keep them together, or will their issues get in the way of what they had just started to build?

Genre Erotica/ Contemporary Romance

Expected Publication Date To Be Announced

Exclusive MaE Interview with N. Isabelle Blanco!

Pssst: She finally talks about the Obsessions Series!
Does this mean we’re getting Ang and Luke soon? We’re praying!

1. What can we expect with the continuation of Liv and Calum’s story?

Nyddi: Oh man. It’s totally different from book one yet it’s makes perfect sense that their story is now heading in the direction it’s heading. Calum began discovering a whole new side to himself in book one, but it was still so simple and so “Sweet” almost. In this book, things get crazier, darker, more dramatic. Liv is dealing with her relationship phobias/issues as well as her feelings for Calum. Calum is dealing with an utter lack of control because of her that he’s never dealt with before, and they’re both absolutely clueless as to how to deal with what’s happening.

2. Why the new direction?

Nyddi: I think it was always meant to be. When I wrote the first book, Calum’s personality developed on its own and he was so much more in control at first than any male I had ever written. He wasn’t an innocent, but he definitely wasn’t as wild as the men I usually write. At least, not that he was aware of. But I remember writing the scene when he first saw Livana, and his visceral reaction to her, and I felt that dominating “I’m going to pull your hair and own you” part of him awakening and I sensed his panic at that. He truly does not know how to accept this new side of him at first, especially when faced with such an independent woman such as Liv, who seems to sometimes not care whether she has him or not.

As for Livana, I truly think some people might not like her at first. This book is in her POV, and we get a front row seat to her mindset. She was hurt and betrayed in the worse way and she was really, really young when it happened. When you get hurt that bad at such a young age, you erect these faulty defense mechanisms in order to protect yourself from it happening ever again. Liv now has to deal with Calum tearing down each of those defenses one by one, although she’s nowhere near ready to trust anyone again.

3. How does this book tie in to what will be book 3 of your Allure series?

Nyddi: Well, the two series are tied together anyway, and they all are leading to my Obsessions Series (Angelina and Lucas). This book ties in because many of the events are happening during book two of Allure (Allure Magnified) and there are events at the end of this book that will be occurring during the beginning of Wrecked Allure, which will be the third and last installment of the Allure series.

And I will say no more on the matter! LOL I don’t want to give away too many spoilers :p

4. Tell us about the sex scenes. Calum is slowly losing more and more control when it comes to Liv, and we’re dying to know how this translates in the bedroom ^_~

Nyddi: Who said anything about a bedroom? *Runs to check* Yup. I don’t think there’s a single love scene in this book that takes place anywhere near a bed…although, if you count his couch, then yeah, it was “near”. Then again, his house is really big LOL

Calum is exploring all these crazy new urges he has because of Livana, so trust me when I say that the new, upgraded Calum 2.0 is going to definitely rock her world. I’m barely surviving writing him!

5. What else are you working on now and what can we expect from you in the future?

Nyddi: The project I’m most immersed in, aside from CF, is Need. I’m writing that book with K.I. Lynn and OMG. I’ve already predicted that it will break me once we’re done writing it. It’s turned into one of the most emotional, fun, frustrating rollercoaster rides of my career. We’re almost at the halfway point and I have to say that I have never been prouder of something I’ve worked on before.

Bringing an alpha male to life alongside K.I. Lynn is exhilarating, hormonally painful, and spiritual all at once LOL! (I really, really mean this.) I am so excited for us to get this one done so we can show it off to the world.

After Need is finished I have the following books in the cue to be written and published in 2014/2015:

Wrecked Allure (Allure #3)

Blood Drenched Conquest (Szolites #3)

Systematic Seige: Provocative Tendencies (SSPT Episode #1)

Broken Headboard, Power Panties, & Penis Charms (Broken Headboards #1)

Damage Owed (Retaliations #2)

Systematic Seige: Provocative Tendencies (SSPT Episode #2)

The Exchange Part 2 (Project Sapphire #2)

And these are only the ones I’m allowed to announce so far!

So yes. The next year or so will be the busiest year of my life. But I wouldn’t change it for the world. Thank you so much to all my fans that keep pushing me and keep me going. I could never live without your support and I go to sleep and wake up in the morning with the drive to write faster because of you ❤

About the Author

N. Isabelle Blanco was born in Queens, NY (USA). At the age of three, due to an odd fascination with studying her mother’s handwriting, she began to read and write. By the time she’d reached kindergarten, she had an extensive vocabulary and her obsession with words began to bleed into every aspect of her life.

An avid reader in her teens, her fascination with Japanese anime eventually led her to the universe of fan fiction, which became her on-again, off-again hobby for the next ten years. During that time she amassed a following of fans that, by her own admission, she would never be able to live without. It was those fans who encouraged her to step beyond the fan fiction realm and try her talent in the publishing world.

N. Isabelle Blanco spends her days working as an author, web programmer, marketer, and graphic designer. That is when she isn’t handling her “spawn”, as she calls her son, and brainstorming with him about his future career as a comic book illustrator.

SYNOPSIS

Since moving to beautiful Cedar Tree, Colorado, Emma Young, mother of one adult
daughter, has worked from home doing some online bookkeeping and
baking for her best friend’s diner to supplement her disability pension.
Life has been pretty damn good. That is, until she received a strange
phone call that started an alarming chain of events.

Investigator Gus Flemming was hot on the trail of a bail skip with organized crime
connections, when he ended up in Cedar Tree. Here the focus of his
investigation landed squarely on the gently rounded shoulders of the
vivacious red-headed Emma, whose physical limitations have done
nothing to dampen her zest for life.

When it becomes clear that Emma is at risk, Gus doesn’t hesitate to step in and protect
her. Call it a job with some very hot benefits…..

COVER REVEAL ~ STEPBROTHER DEAREST by PENELOPE WARD

COVER REVEAL
‘Stepbrother Dearest’ by Penelope Ward

10561765_915360368478159_7172855436475371532_n

BLURB:

STEPBROTHER DEAREST

You’re not supposed to want the one who torments you.

When my stepbrother, Elec, came to live with us my senior year, I wasn’t prepared for how much of a jerk he’d be.

I hated that he took it out on me because he didn’t want to be here.
I hated that he brought girls from our high school back to his room.
But what I hated the most was the unwanted way my body reacted to him.

At first, I thought all he had going for him were his rock-hard tattooed abs and chiseled face. Then, things started changing between us, and it all came to a head one night.

Just as quickly as he’d come into my life, he was gone back to California.

It had been years since I’d seen Elec.

When tragedy struck our family, I’d have to face him again.

And holy hell, the teenager who made me crazy was now a man that drove me insane.

I had a feeling my heart was about to get broken again.

BLOG TOUR & COVER REVEAL ~ Dark Indiscretions by Shakuita Johnson

Jul 31

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Dark Indiscretions:

What happens when your
whole family is scarier than any nightmare and you have no desire to be
anything like them? Do you stay and go along with the family plans or do
you rebel and have them possibly turn their viciousness on you?Jennifer Johnston experiences first hand why whispers are spoken in the dark
about her species being evil when she was just a century old. What
should have been another family dinner spent arguing over why she didn’t
want to keep the bloodlines “pure” by being married off to her older
brother turned into a nightmare and left her with more than tortured
memories.

Jackson Dawls and Taylor Durham had been pack mates,
best friends, and the other’s mate for as long as they could remember.
They were a deadly species all their own but even they feared the
Mystics and their overly cruel and barbaric ways, but unforeseen
circumstances bring them face to face with not one but a few. Will there
lives be in danger or is something great and unexpected awaiting them?

They also have to stay under the radar of the human society that is set out
to destroy those they believe to be “Tarnished” and a danger to mankind.

When the three meet long ago secrets are brought to the light. Secrets no
one but Jennifer knew. Not only do they have to learn to get along with
each other because they are fated, someone is also stalking Jennifer and
preforming sinister acts without her being any the wiser.

Jennifer must seek guidance from old acquaintances and form alliances with those
she never thought she would. She is met with riddles and startling
revelations that she never would have imagined possible.

Will they accept their fates and work together or will old fears destroy
their lives? Will Jennifer be able to reclaim what was taken from her
right from under her nose?

~ Amazon ~ Goodreads ~ B&N ~

The smell of sex was definitely in the air, and already Jenny’s heart was pumping.
She could hear the blood calling to her from the veins of all the humans present at Heaven’s Angles.
Stupid humans didn’t know they were in a bar full of killers. Not her problem.
Just because she wasn’t as bloodthirsty as some didn’t mean she still didn’t
need her fix. She didn’t have a death wish. She still needed the occasional sip
of blood to survive. She blamed it on her dual nature. Whatever; she would just
take what was needed and be on her way. She spotted a cute little couple that
was probably in their early twenties. They would do. All she had to do was turn
on the charm a bit and they would take her home. She would have a little snack
with her sex. Take care of both problems at once.

She walked over with her body’s calling powers in full effect to start the subtle seduction.
She loved the thrill of the power running through her veins. She didn’t give in to her
body’s demands very often but when she did she relished in it. She felt nothing;
“regret” and “remorse” were just words in a dictionary when she felt her Mystic
nature rising to the surface. She was in full predator mode. Now it was time to
catch her prey.

***

Perfect. Someone was coming out the back door. Now, as his soon-to-be bride hunted,
he would do the same. Poor sap wasn’t even going to see it coming.
He moved faster than the human eye could perceive and dragged his prey to the dark corner.
Fear was thick in the air. Good, he loved it when they were scared. He looked his prey over.
A cute little twink, slim, lean muscles, spiky blond hair, loads of mascara,
and cute lips. Mm, he would do nicely. He took his knife out his back pocket
and made a tiny slit below his prey’s collarbone.

“That’s right sweetie. Squirm for me. Just makes it more exciting.
Maybe I’ll fuck you while I drain you. Make it that much sweeter.”

***

Jenny had made it to her mark. Their eyes immediately darted toward hers.
“Mm, aren’t you both adorable. Are you guys up for a little fun tonight?
I promise you won’t be disappointed.”

She was ready to go. She could already feel her fangs trying to bust out of her gums.
She needed to get them out of here like five minutes ago.

“We’re always up for some fun,” the female purred at her.

Her boyfriend just nodded his head in agreement.

“Our place isn’t too far from the club. If you’re ready we can leave now.
It’s just me and Jim tonight, so we don’t have to say any goodbyes.”

That’s fucking perfect, Jenny thought. She made sure to use her powers of concealment on any
witnesses who might have seen her leaving with the couple, just in case.
You could never be too fucking careful, especially since the Mooyers.
She didn’t need their bullshit in her life.

***

Well, it seems like his Jenny found herself a nice couple to fuck and suck.
He loved it when she fed her Mystic. It gave him hope that she wouldn’t fight him too much.
Having finished with his prey, he discarded the useless body. He then made sure to use
his magic to remove all evidence that he had been there.
Any human or other who got any bright ideas would think that there was a serial killer

running rampant

Even the two little holes in his neck where gone. Usually after a kill, he
would at least try to move the body, but he didn’t have that kind of time right
now. His prey was getting away and he didn’t like her out of his sight for too long.

Dark Indiscretions: Monster Unleashed

What would you do if the
one fate chose for you vanished into thin air? What would you give up?
Who would you become to stay with that person?

Krista Bell Johnston finally knows what it’s like to be free.
The torture she endured at the hands of her psychotic father has unleashed the monster
her mother tried so hard to help her suppress. The only thing she wants
to do is be the shadow in the night that everyone is afraid of.

Taser “Taz” Jameson is barely holding it together. He lost Kris once to her
father and now he’s losing her to the monster she is becoming. He’s also
barely containing his own monster since Krista decided she didn’t need
her mates anymore. Nathan is still near but he may not be enough.

Nathan Brimming, Jr. is on the verge of losing not one but both of his mates.
One vanished without a trace. The other is avoiding him. He has run out
of patience with them both.

But when the monster that Krista has
become comes to them with a proposal; will they take her up on it and
possibly lose themselves or will they try to talk her down and get the
beast to put back on her chain?

~ Amazon ~ Goodreads ~ B&N ~

“About damn time!” Jennifer yelled from
the backseat. She quickly exited the car before Jackson could respond. She
needed to see her daughter. Jennifer walked as quickly as her escalating
pregnancy would allow her. Her steps faltered when she heard the heart-piercing
howl of a Dylia, a howl that could only mean someone was in serious pain.
Before she knew it, Jackson was right beside her and holding her by her elbow.
She didn’t say a word.

“Do not leave my side. Something is wrong with Taser.
I would know that damn howl anywhere,” Jackson said.

They made their way into the compound and Jackson questioned the first wolf he saw,
which happened to be one of the triplets, Bane. He wasted no time in the questioning.

“What in the hell is going on around here?
Why does your Alpha sound like someone just shot him in his balls?”
Jackson inquired.

“It would seem that the Alpha Mate has vanished.
Poof, without a trace. She did so right in front of both her mates.
Nathan is just standing there boiling mad, while the Alpha won’t stop howling
and running circles around Nathan. He also growls at anyone who gets too close
to either of them. I was on my way to call you and Taylor when I ran into you,”
Bane explained.

“What in the hell do you mean vanished?” Jennifer screeched.

“Poof,” was all Bane said in answer and walked away, leaving Jennifer screaming
every unpleasant word she could think of to his retreating form.

This could not be his life right now. This shit could not be happening.
He was in the Twilight Zone. Yep. That had to be it. No other explanation.
He was going to wake up any moment from this cluster-fuck of a situation.
He had to wake up. He wouldn’t accept any other option, but as he looked at the face of his Nyhyia,
he knew that shit was long past ever happening. He should have fucking let Taylor drive her.

COVER REVEAL ~ Beneath The Scars by Melanie Moreland

Jul 28

Posted by Book Loving Pixies

Event Organized
by
❤MaE Book Tours & Promo Stars Services❤

Synopsis

The sound of the ocean, the crash of the waves as they kick up against the sand and rocks—these are the only sounds Megan Greene wants to hear. She wants to leave the rest of the world behind, and find some peace. The offer of a private house on the beach, set in a small town in Maine, is perfect. Time to think—to be by herself. It’s all she wants. It’s the escape she needs. Until she stumbles across the painting that seems to echo her own chaotic mindset. Until she meets the unfriendly artist behind the stormy painting and discovers his secrets.

All Zachary Adams wants is to be left alone. His canvases, and the unending scope of the ocean and sand, are his life. They direct him—fill his hours. Bring him focus. Until she enters his life. She dredges up memories of the past—the haunting images he has hidden for years; the fears he has never shared. A story he keeps buried below the surface.

Can she make him see what he is missing? Can he trust her enough to believe?

Together they embark on a journey where their pasts collide and threaten to tear them apart. Will their fragile bond hold or wash away with the ebbing tide?

Genre Adult Contemporary Romance

Expected Publication Date October 14th 2014

About the Author

Melanie Moreland lives a happy and content life in a quiet area of Ontario with her husband and four children. Nothing means more to her than her friends and family, and she cherishes every moment spent with them.

Known as the quiet one with the big laugh, Melanie works for the sporting teams of a local university. Her (box) office job, while demanding, is rewarding as she cheers on her team to victory.

While seriously addicted to coffee, and somewhat challenged with all things computer-related and technical, she relishes baking, cooking, and trying new recipes for people to sample. She loves to throw dinner parties and socialize, and also enjoys traveling, here and abroad, but finds coming home is always the best part of any trip.

Melanie delights in writing a good romance story with some bumps along the way, but is a true believer in happily ever after. When her head isn’t buried in a book, it is bent over a keyboard, furiously typing away as her characters dictate their creative story lines to her even more inspired tales, for all to enjoy.
