& Tantalising Reads
The problem with crazy is that crazy, by itself, has no context. It can be good crazy, bad crazy … or crazy crazy—like it was when my ex-boyfriend sung about me on the radio.Eighteen-year-old Kate couldn’t be more excited about finishing high school and spending the summer on tour with her boyfriend’s band. Her dad showing up drunk at graduation, however, is not exactly kicking things off on the right foot—and that’s before she finds out about his mystery illness, certain to end in death.A mystery illness that she could inherit.Kate has to convince everyone around her that her father is sick, not crazy. But who will be harder to convince? Her friends? Or herself?
The Problem With Crazy is a story about love and life; about overcoming obstacles, choosing to trust, and learning how to make the choices that will change your life forever.
“Nice ass,” a deep voice said. I jumped and quickly straightened up. Heat rushed to my cheeks as my head spun from left to right, trying to identify where the noise had come from.
“Sorry,” the voice came again, only this time I identified its source. A guy stepped out from behind the tree. He was tall, about six foot, with floppy brown hair, olive-toned skin and chocolate-coloured eyes, a tiny freckle marring his right cheek. A small smile was twisted on his lips, showcasing a dimple that made something twinge inside of me.
“You can’t do that.” I frowned.
“If you’re going to bend over in my presence I’m not allowed to compliment you?” The guy stepped forward, closer to me.
“I was stretching.” I shot him what I hoped was a withering look. “And you were hiding behind a tree.”
“I was relaxing behind a tree.” He stepped closer again and I saw the light dancing in his
eyes. “But I do realise I might have come across a little sleazy. I meant it as a compliment. You have a great ass. Much better than some of the others I’ve seen around here.”
“You do this all the time?”
“Depends on what you mean by ‘this’.”
“Standing behind trees, and checking out peoples asses.”

When I was ten, my father indoctrinated me into the family.A brotherhood who would fight, protect, and give their lives for one another. A club whose ties ran thicker than blood, murkier than the dirt and grime that tainted my soul. Stronger than the bonds that connected me to my own family.
A band of brothers, where loyalty was kept and paid in a currency of blood.
When I was twenty-seven, I betrayed that brotherhood.
I’ve spent every day since running, avoiding paying back that debt.
My name is Daniel Johnson. I have betrayed everyone I ever loved.
And I’ll betray her too.
This is my story — if you’re screwed up enough to want to read it.

SALE BLITZ – Welcome to Sugartown & Enjoy Your Stay by Carmen Jenner
anything more than to hang up her apron, jump on her Vespa and ride off
into the sunset, leaving Sugartown in the dust.Elijah Cade never
wanted anything more than a hot meal, a side of hot arse and a soft
place to lay his head at night where he could forget about his past.
But you know what they say about wanting: you always want what you can’t have.
Nineteen
year-old virgin Ana is about to discover that’s not quite true because a
six foot three, hotter than hell, tattooed, Aussie sex god just rode
into town. He’s had a taste of her pie and he wants more– no really, Ana
bakes pies for a living, get your mind out of the gutter.
She’d
be willing to hand over everything tied up in a big red bow, there’s
just one problem; Elijah has secrets dirtier than last week’s underwear.
Secrets that won’t just break Ana’s heart, but put her life at risk,
too. When those secrets come to light, their relationship is pushed to
breaking point.
Add to that a psychotic nympho best friend, an
overbearing father, a cuter than humanly possible kid brother, a wanton
womanizing cousin, the ex from hell, and more pies than you could poke a
… err … stick … at.
And you thought small towns were boring.
Welcome to Sugartown.
*Content Warning. Intended for a mature 18+ audience. Contains explicit sex, oodles of profanity and a crap-tonne of AWKWARD.
Harris expected was to wind up nineteen, knocked-up, and all alone. When
Coop left to pursue his dreams of becoming a rock god, he left a tiny
piece of him behind.Holly wishes he hadn’t.
Jackson wishes he hadn’t.
Jackson
Rowe tried filling the void his family left by drinking, screwing
around, and leaving a string of heartbroken women in his wake. Moving
back to Sugartown should have been easy, but he hadn’t counted on the
fact his sometimes attraction to Holly would still be alive and
kicking—and he sure as hell hadn’t counted on her being pregnant with
another man’s baby.
They drive one another crazy, and yet they can’t stay away.
When
old flames resurface, and even older wounds are torn open, can two
people so similar make it work? Or will their stubbornness only drive
them further apart?
*Content Warning. Intended for a mature 18+
audience. Contains angst, a crap-tonne of profanity, short-tempered
Australian wildlife, and some very pregnant sex.
Life in Sugartown hasn’t
always been easy, not for an ex-con like Elijah, and certainly not for
Ana, who grew up desperate for a way out.Meeting Elijah changed all that; Elijah changed a lot of things.
You’d
think that after three years together and the worst behind them that
life would be a walk in the park, but Sugartown’s sexiest couple may be
about to face their biggest obstacles yet.
Between failed marriage proposals, a trampy ex-lover and a tempting new biker, Sugartown is suddenly not so sweet.
They’re head-over-heels in love. It should be simple—but it rarely is.
Will they make it down the aisle to the happy ever after they deserve? Or are some relationships just destined to fail?
She’s also a compulsive, flagrant prevaricator who gets to make things up for a living.While
Sugartown may not technically exist, Carmen grew up in a small
Australian town just like it, and just like her characters, she always
longed for something more.They didn’t have an Elijah Cade, though. If
they did, you can be sure she would have never left.
Her debut novel,Welcome to Sugartown, was released November 3, 2013.

Blog Tour – All I want by J Daniels
I didn’t want to give mine to him. Not when he kept me out.
He gave me enough, just enough to make me fall in love with him.
I say this to convince myself. But I know the truth.
I would’ve fallen in love with him at a distance.
Handing my heart over to Luke was the easiest thing I’ve ever done.
I was naive when I wished for more, when I hoped he wanted the same things I did.
I try to hate him. I try to forget him.
But it’s not that easy.
Love is a ruthless bitch, and I’m her latest victim.
When she sets her sights on you, she doesn’t just consume your heart, she goes for your soul.
What we had was perfect, real, and all I would ever want.
But she destroyed it.
She destroyed us.
I try to hate her. I try to forget her.
But it’s not that easy.
Love is for people who have hope, and I have none.
I have to say that ‘All I Want’ was a very pleasant surprise and is a much more consistent rounded out offering than the previous in this series. The cover suits the book on this occasion and the promise the author showed progresses and develops, don’t be mistaken I enjoyed ‘Where I Belong’ but it’s inconsistencies in character development and stretching of the plausible did rate it down for me.
‘All I Want’ is Tessa and Luke’s story. We pick up 12 months after their split. Tessa is unhappy and also “desperate for some dick” so resorting to internet dating.
I’ve been registered on Ignite for nine days, and every guy so far that has contacted me has either been too old, too weird, or given off a rapey vibe from his screen name alone. One guy landed on ClitMaster69 when he went through the tedious task of settling on a name. And then there was FingerBanger and ItsSmallButWorks. Seriously? I applaud you for your honesty, dude, but I believe my ideal mate is supposed to be able to fuck like a champion, and there is always a size requirement when it comes to my pussy. You must be this long to board this ride.
I thoroughly enjoyed Tessa, totally unapologetic for her sexuality, sassy, sarcastic, bitchy and a drama diva, funny to read and my type of girl. She is trying to find her way after breaking up with her One, he doesn’t want kids and commitment so it’s for the best, right?…………………
Luke I wanted to slap him as often as I wanted to jump him, much like Tessa’s feelings for him! After the breakup he returns to his manwhore behaviour, even though this hurts Tessa I had to laugh when she catches him at her brother’s wedding getting a blowjob. The girl has style!
Oh sweetie. You might want to go disinfect. He’s got the herp.”
“Oh my God. Are you serious? You have herpes?”
“What? No I don’t!”
“He’s really sweet about it though,” I say sympathetically at the blonde. “He pays for my Valtrex every month.”
Luke is not ready to let Tessa go, he may in his head think ok, so what? But his heart says different. Of course his stubborn ass takes its own sweet time to get on board with his heart and hence our story.
The chemistry, passion and pure unfinished business between these two explodes into angry sex that obviously sorts absolutely nothing but is hot! The pull/push between them is at times frustrating and yet at others tugs at the heartstrings.
Overall I enjoyed it, Luke is a bit of a dick (most men!) and juvenile to the point you dislike him sometimes but if you don’t throw your kindle and continue then it’s a sweet read with a little angst thrown in. Ben, Mia and Nolan of course make appearances, Nolan stealing the show as usual! It will be interesting to see where the author takes us with Reed’s story and if Luke and Tessa have killed each other with sex or weapons by that point!

has been a long, long time since I’ve seen your little face, chérie.
Not once did you visit. That really hurt; after all, it was thanks to
you I was convicted. That’s not something you forget.I thought
it was time— a visit was due. Seeing as you wouldn’t come to me, I
thought it only right I come to you. Sadly, you weren’t home, but your
furry feline was more than accommodating . . .
I’ll be seeing you soon, mon chérie. I’ll always find you . . .
For
six years, a letter has dictated Amelia’s future. She’s running from a
past that refuses to stop, always trying to get one step ahead. Amelia
is clever and resilient, and refuses to slip up.
Relying only on
herself, she’ll be anything and anyone she needs to survive. But
everyone slips up . . . eventually. You can’t always stay ahead of the
darkness.
walls I’d built were for a reason; locking myself in my own personal
prison was out of necessity. Now, with the rubble at my feet, I could do
nothing but watch as she ripped my soul in two, taking the half she
owned with her.
The need to settle down, to find that
missing piece, for the all-consuming love, was never Drew’s plan. He’d
spent the better part of a decade suppressing all memory of love, of
life. He told himself he had the essentials: the impressive apartment,
the successful club, the simple, uncomplicated life he’d worked so hard
to create. It was all he needed. Until Mia.
She entered his life
like wildfire, burning through his world and destroying all pretence of
simplicity, evoking everything he’d fought to deny.
Longing. Warmth. Love.
She
made him want it all, but Amelia lived in the darkness. It had always
been her constant yet terrifying companion. A shadow she’d never been
able to out run and one fateful night it finally consumed her,
shattering both their worlds and burying them deeper in the dark.
Drew
will stop at nothing to save her, for their happy ever after, but Mia
isn’t the only one with demons … It’s a long way out of the darkness.
