There’s something for everyone in this mile-high compilation – from a love story born in a blizzard to a steamy encounter spawned by a series of crazy events.

A Midsummer Flight's Dream by Kira A. Gold - Twenty years ago, he promised to catch her if she fell. Contains young lust, old books, and wild strawberries.
Fly Me To The Moon by Bev Elle - Ticketing agent Jessamy Taylor has been in a dating slump that was exacerbated when she moved her sickly mother in. Truth is, she's never gotten over the quirky Dr. Griffin Sanderson whose OCD drives her crazy, despite his excellent bedside manner.

Blog Tour For Ruth Cardello's Home To Me

Synopsis 

Nick Andrade:
Sexy, charming, bad boy. He’s never been a one woman man, but he’s willing to give it a try every Saturday with Rena.
Rena Sander:
Confident, caring, a woman who plays by the rules. She’s never been in love, and thinks keeping sex with Nick contained to one day a week will protect her heart.
He’s the hot fantasy she’s always craved.
She’s the only woman he’d consider reforming for.
When their relationship is exposed and they must defend it, will these two lovers discover that home is in each other’s arms?

Excerpt

He didn’t believe for a moment she wasn’t interested in him. No woman kisses a man the way she’d kissed him unless she feels something for him.
She’s scared. She said she’d been warned to stay away from him, and Rena had always been one to play it safe.
He told himself he should respect her decision.
He should call any of the women he’d been with recently and fuck them until he couldn’t remember how incredibly hot Rena’s mouth had been. Or how her tight little body had felt pressed against him. He needed to do something that would dull how vividly he remembered how her perfectly rounded ass felt in his hands.
There was only one reason he wouldn’t do that.
He looked down at his traitorous dick. “You’ve never been picky before. Why start now?” 



Rena brought a shaky hand to her temple. With her other hand she retrieved her phone and reread Nick’s messages.
He wanted to see her.
And more.
Rena shivered as she imagined all the possible things that could mean. Images of the two of them, naked and sprawled across his bed, sweaty from a marathon of raw fucking, brought a blush to Rena’s cheeks. Part of her wanted to simply text Yes.
Yes to whatever he had in mind. If their kiss was anything to go by, sex with Nick would be unlike anything she’d experienced.
It wouldn’t be warm and comfortable.

It would be hot, consuming . . . and wrong.

          What happens when the Gentleman of Rock decides to play dirty?

A drummer for the hottest rock band on the planet, David has a single, powerful weakness: Thea, the band’s publicist and the woman who steals his breath away with her every move.

Only problem is, Thea doesn’t date clients—or musicians. Emotionally scarred by a cheating ex, she’s not about to risk her heart with a man who has groupies buzzing around him like flies. Even if his sexy smile ties her up in knots.

What she doesn’t know is that David is a one-woman man...and he’s madly in love with her. David’s determined to prove he’s worth the risk, and willing to court her, step by exquisite step. Thea’s about to discover just how long and hard this handsome drummer can play.







Excerpt: Rock Courtship (Book 1.5) A Rock Kiss Novel
“Beer—whatever you have on tap,” David said to the grizzled bartender and grabbed a stool, his eye on the rugby game in progress on the TV screen bolted above the bar.
He’d hardly taken a sip of his beer, the dark liquid bitingly cold, when he felt a presence at his back. Instincts honed by a childhood in one of the toughest areas of New York had him focusing on the mirror behind the bar to check out the situation before he turned. A big, bald, and heavily muscled male with a spiderweb tattoo on his neck was standing behind and just to the side of David, a smirk on his pockmarked face.
Belly heating, David turned with a slight smile. “Problem?”
The bald man bared his teeth and, laughing, looked to a table to his right. “Hear that, boys?” he called out to his friends. “The pussy rock star here wants to know if there’s a problem.”
Laughter and shouts from that particular table, while the rest of the men in the bar went quiet. David didn’t move, taking a measure of the players without letting it show. “Always know your opponent” had been one of the first things his father had taught him—Vicente Rivera didn’t believe in turning the other cheek; he believed in teaching his sons how to put bullies on the ground and keep them there.
“Yeah, there’s a problem,” the bald guy said, shoving at David’s shoulder. “This is a real bar for real men. Not pussies.”
Like that, then. Good. He was in the mood to do some violence. Lifting his beer, David took a long drink, then slammed it down… and punched Bald Head in the jaw at the same time that he kicked out with his foot to connect with the other man’s knee. The jackass went down like a ton of bricks.
Roaring in rage, the man’s friends came at David.
He grinned and started to show them what this “pussy rock star” could do.
It wasn’t until they’d broken a table and several chairs, and the bartender had called the cops that David realized Thea would have to deal with the fallout from this. Fuck, fuck, fuck, he thought as he was shoved into a cell alone, his erstwhile opponents in the cell opposite. Sliding down the graffiti-marked wall to the floor, he thought about the phone call the desk sergeant had said he could make and decided against it.
Fox had Molly with him—the band’s lead singer had been waiting for his girl to arrive since the instant Schoolboy Choir set foot in the city. As for Noah and Abe, they both had their own plans. He knew any one of the three men would drop those plans in an instant to come to his aid, but since the cops had made it clear he’d be spending the night in a cell no matter what, why mess up their plans?
“You do or say anything that’ll hit the media, you call me. Day or night. I hate surprises—so don’t you dare surprise me.”
Thea had given that order to all four of them when she’d agreed to act as their publicist. Her up-front nature and dedication to her job was part of the reason they’d hired her; Thea was the best and she didn’t take any shit from her clients. He wasn’t doing himself any favors by not calling her.
Right then, David couldn’t find it in himself to care. It wasn’t as if she could hurt him any more than she already had. And Jesus, how long was he going to carry this torch that was burning him alive? “Fuck, fuck, fuck,” he said aloud, banging the back of his head against the wall.

THANK YOU!

Featured Interview With Tina Torrest - Author Of The Remember Trilogy

We have Tina Torrest with us today,

Hi Tina



Tell us a little about yourself.

I am a New Adult author from the U.S. I’m a wife, mother to two boys, and I used to be a voracious reader until I became a writer. Now, I’m lucky if I can sneak in a few books every month, so they’d better be good! Oh. And I’m also a pop culture junkie (80s are my specialty) and a lifelong Jersey girl.

How did you become a writer, and did you always want to write?

I didn’t grow up knowing I wanted to be an author, but I always wrote: Kept a diary through most of my life, wrote plays and short stories when I was younger, composed bad poetry in high school. While on bed-rest with my first son, I needed a way to pass the stagnant hours. That’s when I started writing my first book. Eleven years later, I’m rewriting it—again—and finally getting ready to actually release it.



How do you hope your readers react to the stories you write?

I want them to laugh, swoon, cry… but mostly, I want the characters to stay with them long after they’ve finished the book.




What responses to your writing have affected you the most and why?

I love the people who send me emails, asking if I spied on them their whole lives and wrote my books based on them. I also love the readers who refuse to believe me when I say Remember When is not an autobiography.



Other than writing great stories, what other goals do you have for your life?

Good question. First and foremost, I hope to raise these two amazing boys so that they turn into two incredible men. I hope my husband and I get to grow old together. I hope to buy a beach house in Lavallette one day. I hope to get my charity T-shirt business off-and-running again. I also hope to drop 30 lbs. and bring about world peace… but there are only so many hours in a day and a girl has to prioritize.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

Spare time??? I’ve always loved to read, but unfortunately, I’ve had to make the choice between that and writing. I manage to squeeze in a few books every now and again, however. I also love movies, girls’ night out, and family game night, and I’m constantly redecorating the house (at least in my own mind).





What can you tell us about your latest works?

DOWN THE SHORE (summer 2014) is a rock-and-roll romantic comedy that takes place at the Jersey shore in 1995. That was such a great time for music, even for those of us that didn’t live in Seattle.

The follow-up to DTS is BRIDESMAID FROM HELL (fall 2014), and is a bit of a departure from my usual genre. The lead character is a self-absorbed wrench-in-the-gears in her supposed best friend’s wedding, aka the girl you love to hate. Anyone who has ever been a bride—or a bridesmaid—will relate.


What stories can your fans expect from you in the days ahead?

I have a third standalone in the DTS series planned. Then two additional books (and a possible Trip novella) should round out the entire Norman Series to my satisfaction. After that, I’m counting on divine inspiration.


What would you like to say to your fans in New Zealand and others worldwide?

I’d like to say that I don’t refer to them as fans! LOL. But to my current and potential readers… thank you.




Do you have any parting words?

Just these: Thank you and happy reading!

Cover Reveal For Bella Jewel's Til Death



Title: 'Til Death: Volume One
Series: 'Til Death #1
Author: Bella Jewel
Cover Design: LM Creations
 Release Date: November 25, 2014


Synopsis

I married a douchebag. 

It's my own fault, really. He came in like a handsome stranger and blew me off my feet. I fell madly in love, like the naive girl I am.

Then he left me high and dry.

Turns out, I was nothing more than a business plan for billionaire playboy, Marcus Tandem. He needed to be married to obtain his grandfathers business, and I was the poor victim in his path. I thought we had something real, I believed it was special until the truth reared its ugly head.

I never meant anything to Marcus. Not a damned thing.

Five years on and my life has been a struggle. Left with nothing, I've had to work myself into the ground to clean up my debts and take care of my sick mother, as well as trying to divorce a man that refuses contact with me.

Five years is a lot of time to plot the perfect revenge.

What my dear husband didn't count on, is that fact that I was smarter than I looked. After all, what married couple doesn't take out a life insurance policy? If he dies. I get five million dollars.

Of course, Marcus doesn't know about it.

One drunken night just after I left made sure of that. My mother is unwell, she can't pay for treatment. And I'm a bitter woman. I've been the joke of Marcus Tandem for five years while I've formed the perfect plan. Now it's my turn.

I have to kill him.

Oh yes, Marcus will pay for what he did.

I made a vow before God, that I would be by his side 'Til death do we part.

I plan to keep that vow.
