Strike Release Blitz 



Title: Strike (Spark, #3)
Author: Jennifer Ryder
Genre: Steamy Erotic Romance
Expected Publication Date: August 30, 2014



Blurb

Until April.
A sexy-arse freelance photographer who’s travelled the world, and doesn’t do long walks on the beach or romantic candlelit dinners. She enjoys running with the bulls and food spicy enough to make your hair fall out. If that weren’t enough to get me hard, she rides a mean mother of a motorcycle.
I’ve gotta have a taste of this wildcat.
~Spencer (Jones)
I don’t do fast. Not anymore. I’ve got my career, my independence, and since I fled Spain to come back home I promised myself that I wouldn’t be put second—or third, for that matter—again.
Then I meet pretty boy Spencer.
He’s smooth, oozing the most potent pheromones probably known to modern science, and he’s making a move on me. One kiss was almost enough for my promise to dissolve.
My head says no—my treacherous body screams yes. I’m gonna make Spencer work for it. Make him fight for the chance to have me, because I know that deep down I’m worth it.
~April MacIntyre

Prologue

SPENCER (JONES)

My head pounds, alerting me to the fact that I’m alive. Barely. I run my hand over my bare chest to find a set of fingers clad with rings. The hand tightens, sharp nails scratching my skin as they sweep over my ribs. I shudder with the realisation that she’s still here. That was not part of the plan.
Her hand continues over to my hipbone, and curls around my side. I turn to see her face buried in the pillow beside me, a cascade of fiery red curls tangled down her back, a strong contrast to her pale skin.
I strain to lift my head off the pillow, and there he is. Ryan. On the far edge of my king-sized bed, face down, bare arse and all.
Fuck.
I’m here again. My life on repeat.
My liver screams out its hate for me, and my body aches in silent protest. And why the fuck is my arse sore?
I wriggle to release myself from her hold.
I don’t like them to stay, but Ryan and I were obviously too fucked-up to care. I must’ve passed out, because normally I deal with their exit.
I don’t do mornings. I don’t do awkward. I like simple hook-ups, and then “see ya”; No expectations, no complications.
This here looks complicated.
Walking naked across my bedroom, the floor littered with condom wrappers and clothes, I pick up a rogue black leather shoe and throw it at Ryan’s arse.
He chokes on his snore, and stirs. “Hey, what the fuck, man?” He rolls over, thankfully tugging the tangled sheets with him to shield his dick. I don’t need a vision of his giant cock in the back of my head today.
“What’s up is that you and Princess Redhead need to leave, buddy. I gotta get to work,” I whisper loudly. Working for Dad today is totally gonna blow.
Ryan swings his legs off the bed, and stretches his arms over his head. “Well, you never fail to disappoint, man. Guess I’ll catch ya next time I’m in town.”
I take a white crumpled towel that I must have left on the floor yesterday and wrap it around my hips. “That depends, mate. If you’re the reason my arse is sore, then this was the last time. Oh, and you might just get the shit kicked out of you.”
He chuckles quietly to himself. “You don’t remember?” He grabs his jeans from the floor in front of him, and slips them on.
“Remember what?” Oh no. Ryan did not go there. I’ll kill him. On instinct, my teeth grind against each other, and I breathe out heavily through my nose as I stalk towards him.
He holds up a hand. “Relax,” he says, as he juts his chin towards the redhead. “Miss Ginger Sex Fiend over there brought toys.”
“Fuck,” I gasp. I’ve seriously gotta lay off the drink.
“Now, get outta here. I’ll take care of Ginger.” Ryan winks, and runs his hands through his mussed up sandy-coloured hair.
Yeah. I need to get to work.

Ruin The Waking Release Day Blitz


Lucian Bane
August 28, 2014
Paranormal Romance

Synopsis: To judge and to execute. That is Ruin's power and desire. But Ruin's memory of how he came to be here on Earth and why. After saving Isadore - a neuroscientist living in the swamps of Louisiana - from a sexual predator, she volunteers to help him.
Ruin soon discovers that judging and executing wicked humans which linked to such a difficult and beautiful woman who can't help but involve herself in every aspect of his business, is proving to be more difficult that judging the world.



Ruin The Waking Book Trailer: 

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bw_s4pzK4sxjT1NFTjRQSnlJZGM/edit

Author Bio: 


My name is Lucian Bane, and I'm an Ineffable Dom. That just means, do yourself a favor and please don't try to fit me into categories. Complicated Dom, Intricate Dom, or Confounding Dom work too.I don't want a woman I can break, or overpower, or exercise my dominance over. I want a woman I can come undone with. I want a woman I can jump off the cliff with into that abyss of holy hell, this is beyond me, beyond my control.
I think there are many men like myself, and I hope my writing will be a map for them. (A map for women as well, to let them know Doms like this exist.) I want to challenge them to go for the complete power exchange with a woman, but don't be a coward and not give the same that they demand or expect. Consider that when you give one hundred percent of yourself to a person, there is no more of you to give away. You now belong to them the way they belong to you.


Inner Doms need a master to train them. I once bowed to my Dom's reckless and tireless desires, but when I gained control, he bowed to my will. The transformation made me into what I am today. What many would call an Ineffable Dom. But its equal term in the Vanilla world, in my opinion, is a real man.

My Review:

The first thing I want to say is that I liked this book, but I don’t think the title suits the book. Although I liked the plot of Someone Like You, I think the characters were the best part of this book.
I loved the characters, not just the main characters, Kayleigh and Niall (I love that name), but all of them. Well, maybe not ALL of them. You’ll soon find out which ones are the ones to dislike.
Kayleigh was sweet and self-sacrificing so I was really pleased when she stood up for herself. Niall was truly the strong, silent type and I loved the way he came out of himself during the course of the book. He was also very hot. The residents of the assisted-living centre were priceless. In some ways, they were the heart and the soul of this book as well as being the light relief. I also loved the part of the story involving Niall and Josh, Kayleigh’s nephew.
I wasn’t sure how Someone Like You would end, but I did like the way the book ended. However, I did think the final stage of the story was a bit rushed or maybe the build-up was too long. I would have liked it to be longer.
I gave Someone Like You 4 stars.

Excerpt: FRIEND TO LOVE

Strong hands slid into hers, and Kayleigh shivered with pleasure. “I wondered where
you went.”
She forced herself to meet his kind eyes. “I’m sorry about that, Niall. Sorry for what I
said. Sorry for lots of things. You’ve always been such a good friend to me, and I treated
you badly.”
“A friend?” His eyes searched hers, and she felt her heart open up to him like a flower
touched by dawn. He wanted more than friendship. She couldn’t predict how this would
go, but after years of knowing each other, they had a good start.
“No. Not just as a friend,” she admitted, and felt herself melt at the passionate flare in
his eyes. She angled her head and leaned closer, aching for his kiss.
“We have to get out of here,” he said suddenly and stood, pulling her with him.
“Huh? Why?” His words broke through her romantic fog, and she flushed,
embarrassed. Had she misread the situation? Either way, she wouldn’t regret it. But
another look into his soulful eyes reassured her. She was right about him. She knew it
down deep.
“Because I can’t kiss you here.” His eyes slid to Gianna’s open door then back to her,
and heat raced up her neck and flooded her cheeks.
“Oh.”
He lifted her fingers to his lips, then pulled her out the door.




Viper's Den Pt. 1 Cover Reveal & Release Event

* Book: Vipers Den
* Author: Eliza Brown
* Genre: Contemporary Romance Novella
* 1st in a series of Novellas

Synopsis:
I’m Piper Jones, owner and operator or Vipers’ Den; a hair and beauty salon catering to the unconventional. My clients are often referred to as: eccentric, freaks, or misfits.

I’m also single, a fact my mother is less than pleased with. Making it her mission to change my status, she continually sets me up on dates with her friend’s offspring. Only her roster of “gems” is dwindling. Each date is worse than the last.

Then Kade Benson, the one man I have loathed for as long as I can remember, approached me with the most asinine (borderline genius) plan I’d ever heard to rectify both of our situations.

As ludicrous as it is, it might just work.

However, I never expected things to work out the way they did.


Author Bio:
Eliza Brown is a simple little housewife from Cairns, Australia, with a wicked good imagination. She is the mother to three crazily cute kids and the wife of a Sexy Arse Tree Lopper. She is also baby sister to a Certified Nutbag, a Linesman and a Fireman.

Eliza spends her days running around after her kids and jotting down stories that come to her at inconvenient moments in her leather, flower embossed notebook. (She is very particular about her stationary.) Or in her iPhone or iPad or whatever she can get her hands on. (Damn kids keep running off with her stationary.)
When the kids are napping nine times out of ten, you will find Eliza sitting at her computer typing as fast as she can while she can. Generally with her phone wedged between her shoulder and ear bouncing ideas off her sister.

PERMANENT BLISS RELEASE DAY BLITZ

SYNOPSIS
Makenna Lewis never thought she would be the one walking down the aisle to marry her superhero. But then again, she hadn't expected Daniel Winters to crash into her life and tilt her world off its axis two years earlier. As they celebrate their last days of singledom, they find themselves battling over the guest list, managing the in-laws, and dealing with last minute disasters that threaten to disrupt their special day.

In true Bliss fashion, we’ll see freak-outs, awkward situations, hilarity, drama, and cringe-worthy moments as Mac and Daniel prepare for one of the most important days of their lives. Join the Bliss gang as they watch two of their own walk down the aisle and conclude their happily ever after.

This companion novella follows on from the end of True Bliss and will lead into Finding Bliss – Noah ‘Walking Dildo’ Taylor’s story.

***Disclaimer – Hot sex, drunken texts, horny phone calls, and a wedding anticipated by all but one. And, of course, a few freak outs along the way (but NOT the kind you’re used to) because that’s how Mac rolls ***

EXCERPT
I’m riveted and distracted as he walks around to the driver’s window and hands him the money to pay my fare before he walks back around and opens my door. Clutching my bag of dirty fun in one hand and my purse in the other, I look up at him in awe as he stands there with his hand out and a perceptive grin.
“C’mon, gorgeous. Time to come inside.”
“Thought that was your job,” I say, forgetting that I’m sitting inside the cab and within earshot of the driver.
Daniel laughs before grabbing my hand and helping me to my very shaky feet, causing me to reach out and grab his biceps. “Shit,” I mutter under my breath as I’m gently moved sideways so that he can shut the car door behind me.

With a double tap on the roof of the cab, he bends slightly before scooping me up into his arms, one wrapped around my shoulders and the other underneath my knees. “Whoa, Superman. Pulling out all the stops?” I lean forward so that my mouth is right by his ear. “You do know I’m a sure thing tonight, right?”

#3.5 Permanent Bliss

BLISS SERIES FACTS
-          The books are all standalones that can be read separately in their own right but feature common characters throughout the books.
-          There are currently four books planned for the series but I have tentative ideas for one more novel and one novella.
-          Out of the three females in the three books so far, there has been a brunette, a red head and a blonde – I wonder what Noah’s female of choice will have ;)
-          Each of those females have a favorite drink of choice; Mac likes tequila, Kate likes her win, Sam has a close relationship with Vodka (and couches)
-          Ben & Jerry’s ice cream features in every book (and I only tasted Ben & Jerrys’ for the first time in March this year!) Mac and Kate like Chunky Monkey, Sam likes Karamel Sutra.
-          Temporary Bliss (Bliss#1) is the only book that features all of the main characters (Sam first appears in True Bliss (Bliss #2).
-          All four planned books in the Bliss series will soon be published in portuguese in Brazilian book stores
-          Every book has songs as chapter titles
-          Permanent Bliss (Bliss #3.5) was written to give Mac and Daniel fans their happy ‘forever’ after for the couple that started it all. It also features all of the characters from the first three books and one scene you would never expect to happen ;)

ALSO AVAILABLE IN THE BLISS SERIES
#1 Temporary Bliss (on sale for 99c)
US:  http://amzn.to/1jwj4mj
UK:  http://amzn.to/16B3kYO
*Disclaimer - There is absolutely no cheating in this book. However, this book does contain descriptive and super hot sex scenes that will make you blush and leave you hot and bothered. Make sure you have you husband, partner, boyfriend or significant other nearby when reading, or else batteries. Lots and lots of batteries*

Makenna Lewis cringes at any mention of the word commitment. She doesn’t want or need a relationship, but she does like sex (who doesn't).

That explains Noah, Sean, and Zander, her three 'friends with benefits'.

They know the score, they know they're not the only one, and each of them provide her with a different physical need that she craves and enjoys.

Until a late night encounter with the delicious Daniel Winters turns her preconceived notion of no-commitment completely on its head.

Soon she finds herself feeling things she vowed never to feel again, and when Daniel pushes for more than she’s willing to give, she falters.

What do you do when something that you’ve known to be so wrong in the past feels so damn right?

If you’re Mac, you run and hide.

But is Daniel the type of man who takes no for an answer?


#2 True Bliss

She watched her best friend find her superhero.

Now she wants her turn.

Despite a run of bad dates with Mr. Wrong, Mr. Boring, Mr. Bad Breath, Mr. Grabby Hands, and even Mr. Say I Love You After One Date To Get Into Your Pants, Kate McGuinness is more determined than ever to find the one.

Having tried everything else, she turns to the internet in a last ditch attempt to find her elusive prince.

But Kate doesn't want an everyday, run of the mill love.

She wants the kind of love that makes your heart skip a beat. The kind of love that makes you dance in the rain and bottle up the sunset. The once in a lifetime kind of love that authors write about, musicians sing about, and lovers dream about.

Could a certain police officer in training, who has come to her rescue in the past, be the one to swoop in and save her heart?

What if the love Kate desperately seeks has been in front of her the whole time?
She just needs to open her eyes to see it...

*Disclaimer: This book contains a hot as hell stripper with a penchant for public sex and exhibitionism who may or may not succeed in bringing out the inner firecracker in all of us. Oh, and don't forget the batteries.*


#3 Blissful Surrender
This is a story of Sean Miller, a dom that will have your panties diving for cover with an eyebrow quirk. That will have even the strongest woman dropping to their knees in submission with a piercing stare, and Samantha Richards, a female cop who’s tough, seemingly impenetrable shell is strong enough to resist everyone except the one man it was build up to protect her against.

**Disclaimer – If you thought the first two Bliss books were hot, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Creative use of handcuffs, batons, a club scene you have to read to believe, and a tough as nails dominant who is blindsided when the one woman strong enough to disarm him threatens his resolve not to let his past dictate his future.**



COMING SOON (Winter 2014/15)
#4 Finding Bliss
They call me the walking dildo.
Gratifying? Yes.
Something to be proud of? Certainly.
What I wish to be known for? Absolutely not!
Watching my best friend and my old fuck buddy walk down the aisle blissfully happy has just reiterated the fact that I’m thirty and perpetually single.
I thought I’d found someone I wanted to spend my life with but sometimes you have to face facts and realize it’s never gonna happen.
Funny how it just takes one person to make you finally see sense.
My name is Dr Noah Taylor and this is the year my life changed for the better.
*Disclaimer – This book features hot sex, filthy language, misuse of on-call rooms and the overdue redemption of the fake orgasm*

MY REVIEW OF PERMANENT BLITZ
I loved Mac and Daniel’s story in Temporary Bliss and I also loved reading little snippets about them in True Bliss and Blissful Surrender so I was really looking forward to reading about their wedding in Permanent Bliss.  BJ Harvey did not disappoint me.
I decided to keep to the wedding theme when I writing my review. I’m sorry if you don’t appreciate my analogy.
The Bliss series by BJ Harvey could be likened to a wedding cake. The foundation layer is Temporary Bliss and a very tasty layer it is. It consists of a romantic story flavoured with hot sex and funny lines. This is where I fell in love with Mac and Daniel aka Superman as well as Kate, Mac’s best friend.
That brings me to the second layer, True Bliss, Kate and Zander’s story. The third layer is Blissful Surrender, Sean and Samantha’s story. Both of these layers are rich and decadent.
But everyone knows that the top layer of a cake is the best one of all and Permanent Bliss definitely met my expectations. I was able to have more of Kate and her Superman, Daniel plus the Super twins. I was in cake heaven. So many of the characters from the Bliss series were added into the mixture plus a few unknowns. Once all those ingredients were combined, BJ Harvey produced another 5 star book.
