Faking It - K. Bromberg - Release Blitz

Faking It RB banner.jpg

Faking It never felt so good in this red-hot new standalone by New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg--available now!


fakingit_kBromberg.jpg



Zane Phillips mistook me for his dog walker. It shouldn't surprise me that the man with a suit more expensive than my rent would assume that I was there to serve him. The positive? I put him in his place. The negative? I missed my job interview because of it. Now I find out he's a rich Australian entrepreneur, and he wants to make up for tanking my interview.
Yes, he's impossibly hot - but he's also an arrogant jackass - so...no thanks. 

But after a little white lie I tell spirals out of control, I'm somehow offered the chance to play Zane's girlfriend to help promote his new dating website - and the best part? He can't say no because he'll get caught in his lie, too. 

Little did I know this would entail sharing a tour bus with him for the next few months. The fact that the bus has just one bed isn't the most ideal of circumstances, but this spokesperson gig might be the kick in the pants my career needs, so why not take a chance? 

Famous last words. 

Now I'm crisscrossing the country - and sharing that bed - with the one guy I can't stand. And even worse, my traitorous body is wondering at every turn what it's like to be down under the gorgeous Australian. But as the miles unfurl, so does our passion...and if I'm not careful, I might end up believing that fairy tales really do come true.

4 Stars

Love a romantic comedy, with a hero and heroine who are complete opposites, but inexplicably drawn to each other, and get on each other's nerves then Faking It is the title for you!

Zane is a successful entrepreneur, he's a ladies man, who's well aware of his appeal to the opposite sex.  He's charming, sexy, cocky and has a tendency to be quite arrogant. 

Harlow is confident, independent, and bold.  She can be charming when required, but she's also quite feisty, sassy and snarky, and not afraid to speak her mind.

The sexual chemistry between this pair just oozes off the page, but it's their banter that draws you in.  Zane and Harlow love to bicker, manipulate and attempt to outsmart each other and it makes for interactions that are witty, fun, flirtatious and full of sarcasm.  

Although not my favourite of Ms Bromberg's it's still a humorous, entertaining and steamy fast paced read that I quite enjoyed.

Reckless Love - Kelly Elliott - Release Blitz






The first time I kissed Scarlet, I knew I was in trouble.
The night I slept with her, my life changed forever.
The day I found out I was going to be a father, I ran from her.

Now that I’ve been given a second chance I won’t be so reckless.

Will my love be enough to prove to her that even in the darkest times I won’t repeat t

he past?




Amazon | Amazon Paperback | Amazon UK | Amazon AU

Reckless Love is the seventh title in the Cowboys and Angels series.  It's a bittersweet, emotional ending to the Parker siblings finding their happy ever afters!

Trevor is a cocky, fun, flirtatious ladies man.  He is definitely a character that will push your buttons, and have you going through a gamut of emotions.  At times he made me angry, then frustrated, and then I literally wanted to slap some sense into him, but despite these unsavoury elements to his personality, he does redeem himself beautifully.  When he shows his sweet, protective and fun side you just can't resist falling in love with Trevor. Scarlett is his perfect match, she's incredibly endearing, warm, giving, strong, resilient and forgiving. 

Whilst the connection and chemistry between Trevor an Scarlett is undeniable, this pair really struggle to communicate and share their feelings, which results in a quite a messy and tumultuous relationship, making their relationship all the more realistic and relatable. 

Reckless Love is an emotional, moving and endearing story with equal parts heat, heart and humor.  

I adored the epilogue, and it's left me even more eager for more of Ms Elliott's writing.

The Kiss Thief - L.J. Shen - Blog Tour





THE KISS THIEF BY L.J. SHEN
Release Date: January 9th
Cover Designer: Letitia Hasser at RBA Designs.




 


AVAILABLE NOW!



FREE IN KU!






Add to Goodreads:





They say your first kiss should be earned.

Mine was stolen by a devil in a masquerade mask under the black Chicago sky.

They say the vows you take on your wedding day are sacred.

Mine were broken before we left church.

They say your heart only beats for one man.

Mine split and bled for two rivals who fought for it until the bitter end.

I was promised to Angelo Bandini, the heir to one of the most powerful families in the Chicago Outfit.

Then taken by Senator Wolfe Keaton, who held my father’s sins over his head to force me into marriage.

They say that all great love stories have a happy ending.

I, Francesca Rossi, found myself erasing and rewriting mine until the very last chapter.

One kiss.

Two men.

Three lives.

Entwined together.

And somewhere between these two men, I had to find my forever.






“Are you sure you’re on my card?” I turned to the man with a polite yet distant smile. I was still disoriented from the exchange with Angelo when the stranger pulled me against his hard body and pressed a possessive hand lower than socially acceptable on my back, a second from groping my butt.

“Answer me,” I hissed.

“My bid on your card was the highest,” he replied dryly.

“The bids are undisclosed. You don’t know how much other people have paid,” I kept my lips pursed to keep myself from yelling.

“I know it’s nowhere near the realm of what this dance is worth.”

Un-freaking-believable.

We began to waltz around the room as other couples were not only spinning and mingling but also stealing envious glances at us. Naked, raw ogles that told me that whomever the blonde he’d come to the masquerade with was, she wasn’t his wife. And that I might have been all the rage in The Outfit, but the rude man was in high demand, too.

I was stiff and cold in his arms, but he didn’t seem to notice—or mind. He knew how to waltz better than most men, but he was technical, and lacked warmth and Angelo’s playfulness.

“Nemesis.” He took me by surprise, his rapacious gaze stripping me bare. “Distributing glee and dealing misery. Seems at odds with the submissive girl who entertained Bishop and his horsey wife at the table.”

I choked on my own saliva. Did he just call the governor’s wife horsey? And me submissive? I looked away, ignoring the addictive scent of his cologne, and the way his marble body felt against mine.

“Nemesis is my spirit animal. She was the one to lure Narcissus to a pool where he saw his own reflection and died of vanity. Pride is a terrible illness.” I flashed him a taunting smirk.

“Some of us could use catching it.” He bared his straight white teeth.

“Arrogance is a disease. Compassion is the cure. Most gods didn’t like Nemesis, but that’s because she had a backbone.”

“Do you?” He arched a dark eyebrow.

“Do I…?” I blinked, the courteous grin on my face crumpling. He was even ruder when we were alone.

“Have a backbone,” he provided. He stared at me so boldly and intimately, it felt like he breathed fire into my soul. I wanted to step out of his touch and jump into a pool full of ice.

“Of course, I do,” I responded, my spine stiffening. “What’s with the manners? Were you raised by wild coyotes?”

“Give me an example,” he said, ignoring my quip. I was beginning to draw away from him, but he jerked me back into his arms. The glitzy ballroom distorted into a backdrop, and even though I was starting to notice that the man behind the demi-mask was unusually beautiful, the ugliness of his behavior was the only thing that stood out.

I am a warrior and a lady…and a sane person who can deal with this horrid man.

“I really like Angelo Bandini.” I dropped my voice, slicing my gaze from his eyes and toward the table where Angelo’s family had been seated. My father was sitting a few seats away, staring at us coldly, surrounded by Made Men who chatted away.

“And see, in my family, we have a tradition dating back ten generations. Prior to her wedding, a Rossi bride is to open a wooden chest—carved and made by a witch who lived in my ancestors’ Italian village—and read three notes written to her by the last Rossi girl to marry. It’s kind of a good luck charm mixed with a talisman and a bit of fortunetelling. I stole the chest tonight and opened one of the notes, all so I could rush fate. It said that tonight I was going to be kissed by the love of my life, and well…” I drew my lower lip into my mouth and sucked it, peering under my eyelashes at Angelo’s empty seat. The man stared at me stoically, as though I was a foreign film he couldn’t understand. “I’m going to kiss him tonight.”

“That’s your backbone?”

“When I have an ambition, I go for it.”
A conceited frown crinkled his mask, as if to say I was a complete and utter moron. I looked him straight in the eye. My father taught me that the best way to deal with men like him was to confront, not run. Because, this man? He’d chase.

5 Stars 

I was initially drawn to The Kiss Thief, because of it's phenomenally gorgeous cover, and L.J. Shen does not disappoint. 


 I went into this story having only read the blurb, and it doesn't give much away, which is why I've struggled with writing a review.  Everyone needs to read this book with no preconceived notions so that they feel all the emotions, and be just as surprised, and amazed by the twists and turns as the initial readers felt. 


This title is captivating, intriguing and engaging with characters that will draw you in and have you experiencing a gamut of emotions.  This is not a sweet romance it's dark, raw and passionate.  It's a tale full of tension, angst and vengeance with blackmail, betrayal and danger around every corner.  


The cast of characters within The Kiss Thief are incredibly complex and well developed.   The hero is quite formidable and incredibly ruthless in going after what he wants.  He's intelligent, driven, charismatic and ambitious.  He's quite closed off, but when he does gives his heart, he will do anything to protect those he holds dear.    The heroine is sophisticated, beautiful and comes from a background of wealth and privilege.  But she's so much more than her delicate appearance, and she's far from fragile with backbone of steel, she's incredibly strong, resilient, courageous and not at all afraid to speak her mind. 

The interactions between this pair are raw, but very clever and witty.   Both are incredibly intelligent and prideful, their barbs are meant to flay, full of sarcasm, ridicule, and emotion. 

Honestly I was quite surprised with how much I enjoyed this title, It's not the type of story I'm usually drawn to, and I was completely surprised by the unique and heartfelt plot, and I'm sure The Kiss Thief will feature heavily as one of the top reads of 2019!

Forgiving Keven - Siobhan Davis - Release Blitz

FK_SBPR_RB.jpg

She’s the one who got away. He’s the boy she can’t forget…

Forgiving Keven, an all-new suspenseful, second-chance, new-adult romance from Siobhan Davis, the USA Today bestselling author of When Forever Changes and Inseparable, is available now!


ForgivingKeven_ecover.jpg



Cheryl

They say you never forget your first love, but I’m determined to prove Keven Kennedy is just a random boy from my past. 

It’s not like I still think about him after all this time. Or daydream about how hot his kisses were and what it felt like to have his hands on my skin.

Nope, that’s not me. I’m in a happy place in my life. Engaged to a great man and finishing the last year of my photography degree. 

Yet, since I returned to Massachusetts, everything reminds me of the boy who ripped my heart to shreds. Especially when my fiancé’s constant business trips, and dwindling attention, raises old fears to the surface.

And then the unthinkable happens—Keven saunters back into my life, turning it upside down once more. 

It’s ironic he thinks he’s protecting me when the only one I need protecting from is him.

Keven

They say you never forget your first love. In my case, it’s true. Most everyone in high school thought Cheryl and I were a match made in heaven and that nothing could tear us apart. Until I messed up spectacularly and lost the best thing to ever happen to me. 

Years have passed, girls have come and gone, but no one has laid claim to my heart in the way Cheryl did.

I thought she was lost to me forever, when an unexpected encounter with an uptight FBI agent, and an intriguing proposition, brings the beautiful blonde back into my life. 

I didn’t hesitate to sign on the dotted line.

I let Cheryl down once before. I’m not going to fail her this time.

Forgiving Keven is a STANDALONE title in the Kennedy Boys world. No cliff-hanger and a guaranteed HEA.

Forgiving Keven is a second chance romance, and the seventh title in The Kennedy Boys series. Keven and Cheryl's story is full of drama, intrigue, suspense, and danger, with twists and turns aplenty that will keep you completely engaged. 

Keven is intelligent, protective, confident, strong and loving.  He recognises the mistakes of his youth an is prepared to do anything to win the woman of his dreams, even if it's making himself vulnerable.
Cheryl is strong, determined, hardworking and fierce. 

I love that so many of the Kennedy family appear throughout this title.  The interactions between the members of the Kennedy clan, are always full of love, but also sass, sarcasm and humor. 

Although this title is a standalone I would highly recommend at least reading Seducing Kaden, prior to reading Forgiving Keven, as both Eva and Kaden featuring heavily in this title and if you read it after there are several spoilers that will be revealed throughout this title. 

I will be eagerly awaiting the next addition to The Kennedy Boys series.
