Divorced. Single dad. Traded to a losing squad.

Cheated on, betrayed, exposed.

My perfect life blew up in my face and I'm still picking up the pieces.

The last thing I need is her.

A wildflower. A storm. A woman I can't resist.

Lotus DuPree is a kick to my gut and a wrench in my plans

from the moment our eyes meet.

I promised myself I wouldn't trust a woman again,

but I've never wanted anyone the way I want Lo.

She's not the plan I made, but she's the risk I have to take.

A warrior. A baller. The one they call Gladiator.

Kenan Ross charged into my life smelling all good, looking even better and snatching my breath from the moment we met.

The last thing I need is him.

I’m working on me. Facing my pain and conquering my demons.

I've seen what trusting a man gets you.

Don't. Have. Time. For. This.

But he just keeps coming for me.

Keeps knocking down my defenses and stealing my excuses

one by one.

He never gives up, and now...I'm not sure I want him to.

Skater boy cover reveal, Mary Catherine Gebhard

Title: Skater Boy

Series: Patchwork House #1

Author: Mary Catherine Gebhard

Genre: New Adult
Cover Design: Hang Le

Release Date: April 25, 2019

Blurb

Rebels. Misfits. Bad boys who rule the streets. Everyone’s welcome at the worst kept secret in town, just as long as you don’t mind getting your reputation—and your heart—a little dirty.

Welcome to Patchwork House…

Patchwork House is a boy’s club—a mean boy’s club. They made an exception for Tweetie once, and they’re going to make another, because she’s coming home. After two years away and one too many broken hearts, Tweetie swore off skaters—but she never expected Flip.

Flip was the most famous skater in the world until he traded his place at Patchwork with the little girl whose life he ruined. Now Tweetie’s all grown up, and one chance encounter brings them together. He knows the right thing to do is disappear before things get ugly, but he never was very good at being good.

She’s back, and so is he—all bets are off. Nothing will stop this bad boy from finally getting his lost girl. They're written in the stars, and it's time she knows it.

The first lesson Flip taught Tweetie was how to fall.

It was also the last thing she remembered when they met again, because she didn’t just fall for him.

She slammed.

Irresistible review and release blitz, Ady Anes

Attraction review: I may be a bit confused here but I came into this book thinking it was a MFM story. It’s not. In fact there’s a lot of things this book isn’t.

To be honest, it isn’t particularly fantastic.

There was no depth to the characters. I have no idea who Carina and Jason are. This book is crying out for dual POV, the chapter at the end, while it does shed much needed light, isn’t nearly enough. There’s also a massive disconnect between who the characters are. Are they promiscuous? Are they nice? At times they’re both but it doesn’t make sense. 

I felt like there was little to no chemistry between Jason and Carina, in fact, I felt there was more chemistry between Carina and Diego. Valentino felt like an afterthought.

I also felt like Carina fell into bed way too early. I want chemistry, I want a build up. I got none of that.

The constant mention of womb clenching also grated and the lack of punctuation after dialogue severely hindered my reading experience.

This isn’t a great book and to be honest, I’d give it a miss, sorry! 📖📖📔 (revised after reading book 2)

Irresistible review: This duet really confused me. As you may have seen from my review from the first book, I was really confused as to who the characters are, besides highly sexually active. I’m still confused. I’m also really confused about Jaxon’s part of this book. His part in this one is completely unnecessary, in fact, the entire first book kind of is. Jaxon is not a great character and I don’t know why his presence is continued. Marco is a massive part of this book but is only present in the first one for a page or two. It’s so confusing this is how things are structured.

There’s also a heap of contradictory statements. On one hand Carina doesn’t want a threesome, she’s not that sexual, then the next breath she is that sexual and she does want it. I don’t get it.

I’d also like to see more MM here. There’s supposed to be feelings between Marco and Valentino but I didn’t really get that.

Again, the punctuation at the end of dialogue really impacted my read.

This isn’t a great book. It’s confusing and I really don’t understand where the characters are going. I won’t be continuing, sorry. 📖📖📖

Title: Irresistible

Series: Scandalous Series #2

Author: Ady Anes

Genre: New Adult/College Romance

Release Date: March 26, 2019

What happens when you can no longer resist the irresistible? Jaxon Wright.

Valentino DeLuca.

The men vying for Carina’s attention and heart.

If things aren’t already complicated enough, Marco Soriano, Valentino’s business partner and best friend, throws a wrench in things.

Jaxon may be Mr. Wright, but he’s all sorts of wrong for Carina.

Jaxon on the other hand disagrees. Their chemistry is undeniable and explosive. He’s determined to win Carina back.

As great as Jaxon is in bed, Carina isn’t as willing to give her heart. Can Jaxon prove to be too irresistible and ultimately win her heart, regardless of the competition?

**Contains mature content. M/F/M action**

Irresistible - Carina

I slink into the passenger seat and watch Valentino disappear as Desirae drives away. "How was your weekend?" I decide to beat Desirae to the punch.

"I'm sure not as interesting as yours… But I did get laid so much that I needed a hot bath to soothe my lady bits... gotta abstain for a few days. Damn that man can fuck!"

I throw my head back laughing. It isn't often that Des can't keep up with a guy. She's usually complaining that they're done after five minutes and have completely neglected her. I'm starting to see a pattern her. MEN know how to please a woman. BOYS just aim to bust a nut.

"Unlike you" I playfully scoff, "Valentino took me out. He bought me some things and we had dinner at some nice place on Park Avenue."

Desirae bounces in her seat. "Oh, that hurt" she winces. She leans to the side and continues to drive in that position.

I scrunch my face at her. "Don't ask me to rub ointment on your shit! You need to learn your limits instead of letting the man fuck you into oblivion."

"Worth it" Desirae singsongs. "So..." she drawls, "Have you checked your phone all weekend?"

"I had to turn the damn thing off" I shake my head in disgust. "He finally decided to fucking start harassing me Saturday afternoon. He must remember something since this is the first time he’s tried reaching out to me in two weeks."

Desirae's face pinches like she's dying to say something but doesn't know whether to share it or not. "I'm sure whatever you want to say Des is already on this phone. Just spill it so that you can spare me the bullshit." I stare at the blinking red light letting me know I have all kinds of voicemail messages and unread text messages.

She exhales slowly causing my hackles to rise. Apparently, this is going to be big or bad, or both. What the hell did he do after we parted ways Friday evening?

"There are two things you should be aware of" Desirae begins, "The first is that there are social media pictures of you and Valentino leaving the club Friday night. Everyone's seen it and decided to call both of us about it."

My hands twitch wanting to pull up these so-called pictures. "Are they bad?" I quietly ask. Was I humping him in the parking lot or something? Are there cameras in his office? Why didn't he mention anything? Surely a man of his position would know what's out there posted about him.

"On the contrary... you two appear intimate, tasteful... Like a real couple. You make him look younger." Desirae laughs making me smile. Valentino isn't old, but he did confess that I'm the youngest woman he's ever been with.

"The other thing..." she hesitates. By the tension in her voice I know this is going to be bad. She parks the car at a nearby grocery store. Yep, really bad…. "Everyone's talking about Jaxon."

I arch my brows waiting for the rest. This isn't news. Where's she going with this? Desirae nods before continuing. "They say he banged that blonde bimbo he was feeling up Friday night."

I sigh not in the least bit surprised. Jaxon couldn’t mask the relief and irritation on his face when we'd "talked" during his drunken stupor. I doubt he even remembers the conversation.

"It gets worse" she hedges. Time to brace myself. "Apparently" she emphasizes the word, "It was so good that the bitch cried or passed out. That motivated the entire sorority to an orgy that featured Jaxon as the headliner. Word has it Pete and the other dickwads took advantage and partook in the sorority fuck-fest."

Aaannnddd whatever little hope I had left for Jaxon is gone… I swallow the bile threatening to climb up my throat. "Well, Jaxon Wright always goes big or goes home right?" I hate that my voice trembles. There should be nothing but disgust lacing every word. Just knowing he slept with that many girls in one night makes my skin crawl. I've allowed him to go bareback more than one. I make a mental note to get tested for every fucking thing under the sun after classes this week.

"For what it's worth I am sorry" Desirae whispers into the silence of the car.

A traitorous tear trickles down my cheek. "We both called it Des. This was just the kind of embarrassment I wanted to avoid when I left him the first time." What I would give to just be back in Valentino's condo away from all this drama. I lean my head back knowing I need to face this. I hand Desirae my phone so she can read the slew of text messages.

Ady Anes is a dutiful wife and mother in real life, but a dirty girl between the pages. Her love for reading transfers into her passion for writing. She always has stories floating in her head, ready to pour onto blank pages. Ady has a killer sweet tooth, loves music and sports, and names her kids and fur babies after fictional characters.

BRED
A coming-of-age romance inspired by Great Expectations
By Ginger Scott

My life was irrevocably changed the moment I stepped foot inside Elena Alderman’s grand front doors. A lifeless tomb on the edge of Chicago’s South Side, the Alderman home sat in one of the city’s oldest and wealthiest neighborhoods, and Elena Alderman was the queen.

She was also mad.

Not the kind of madness that’s readily apparent. No, her psychopathy was far more surgical—more…insidious. She was surrounded by beautiful things—most notably her grand piano and her adopted son, Henry.

I fell in love with both.

My gift blossomed when my fingers touched her black and white keys. But my life began when I became haunted by the boy. Henry Alderman was a handsome blend of arrogance and seduction, and as we grew up together, I found it more and more impossible to separate him from my thoughts. I envied his life. I imagined how my name—Lily—would look with his. I became his closest friend…and more. I gave him my kiss, locked away his secrets, and loved him even when it was hard to.

But we were just a game. Elena Alderman made the rules. And when she decided to change them, she broke everything.

Almost.

Nothing but trouble blog tour, P. Dangelico

I LOVED this book! I’ve never read anything from this author before, and I’m not entirely sure why I signed up to promote this book but I’m SO glad I did! 

The passion the characters have come through, as do their feelings. I love the one-liners as well as the deep thoughts. The supporting cast are awesome and I can’t wait for their books! Dallas and Brock in particular. I’d love to see Owen’s as well.

One thing I will say is at times it seems like this isn’t the first book in the series and prior knowledge of the characters has been imparted somewhere else. But it’s a very small complaint in what is an incredible book! Grab a copy now! 📖📖📖📖📖

Nothing But Trouble, an all new standalone Contemporary Romance by

P. Dangelico

Reagan Reynolds...

Water polo god.

Owner of a face that belongs under Wikipedia’s definition of drop dead gorgeous.

Too charming for his own good.

But most importantly––the worst driver on the planet.

No, really, I’m pretty sure his blind nana taught him how to drive.

I had no idea who he was until he almost ran me over. And frankly, I kind of wish I still didn’t because then I wouldn’t have a sprained ankle to show for it. And my leg wouldn’t resemble a boa constrictor that’s swallowed a feral pig.

Yeah, it’s that bad.

I’ve spent years saving every penny I’ve ever earned to be able to transfer to Malibu University. And now my entire future––including my scholarship––is in jeopardy.

So I either accept the help he insists on giving me, or lose everything I’ve sacrificed for.

In the meantime, I’m going to ignore the fact that we’re becoming friends.

And I’m definitely going to pretend he’s not turning into the object of my…umm, dirty fantasies.

That’s not happening.

Not even a little.

Because the minute I clapped eyes on him I knew he was nothing but trouble.

Excerpt:

Alice A strong gust of hot air invades the car and Reagan’s hair gets ruffled. It’s been like this the last few weeks. Crazy hot winds picking up now and then. Mine is literally standing on end. I’m forced to hold it down with both hands. “The Santa Anas,” he says as if reading my mind. I look over and find him smiling at me. “The hot wind.” He swirls his index finger. I let go of my hair, close my eyes, and let it have its way with me. It stands instantly upright, like I stuck my finger in a socket. I’m sure I look like an idiot but it makes me laugh, a burst of pure joy emanating from my chest that can’t be contained any more than the wind can. “Nice hair,” he mocks with a teasing smile. “Thanks, Flipper.” “I thought we established that it’s not a dolphin.” “You’re not going to like me saying this, but you’re more dolphin than shark,” I happily point out. He’s always perky and upbeat, likes to socialize, loves all the attention. He’s a dolphin––whether he likes it or not. He levels narrowed green vengeance on me, offset by a sly smile. “I’m the top of the food chain, babe. I’m all shark.” “That’s adorable. Especially coming from someone that wears a swim cap like my nana used to wear. Except yours has those darling cinnamon buns over the ears. Like Princess Leia.” He fights his amusement. “Those cinnamon buns are meant to protect my ears from all the rough, manly activity. And I’m tellin’ on you. I’m tellin’ all the guys you said that.” The Jeep comes to an abrupt stop. Only then do I realize we’re parked in front of the apartment building where my study group is being held. Scanning the parking lot, I see people I recognize from class pouring out of a car. My attention returns to Reagan and I find him watching me. His smile melts. His expression grows serious like he rarely ever is. I rake my hair down and get my fingers snagged on a few knots. Unfortunately I’m not the comb-carrying type. Mental note: purchase comb. Crazy winds are afoot. “Thank you for driving me.” I look for some sign of what’s going on in his mind and finding the door shut. “What time should I pick you up?” He reaches out and I lean away, staring at his hand. “Chill, Bailey. You have a piece sticking up.” “Oh…okay.” He’s trying to be helpful and I treat him like he’s a festering case of the bubonic plague. How embarrassing. I lean in and he sets about gently brushing down each and every one of my stray hairs, so gently I can barely feel him picking apart the knots. I can feel his breath on my skin. Fresh from a shower, I can smell his shampoo. My scalp tingles and goose bumps break out on my forearms. Lord give me strength.

About P. Dangelico:

Dangelico loves romance in all forms, cuddly creatures (four legged and two), really bloody sexy pulp, the NY Jets (although she’s reconsidering after this season), and to while away the day at the barn (apparently she does her best thinking shoveling horse crap). What she’s not enamored with is referring to herself in the third person and social media so don’t expect her to get on Twitter anytime soon. Oh, and although she was born in Italy, she’s been Jersey Strong since she turned six.

Desperately seeking roommate cover reveal, Micalea Smeltzer

Title: Desperately Seeking Roommate

Author: Micalea Smeltzer

Genre: Romantic Comedy
Cover Design: Emily Wittig Designs
Release Date: April 26, 2019

Blurb

WANTED: A ROOMMATE

Requirements

 1.     Don’t be a smoker. That’s gross.

2.     Don’t be a jerk. I have no time to deal with your mood swings.

3.     Clean up after yourself. Is it really so hard to put dirty clothes where they belong?

If you meet these qualifications, call me.

Sincerely,

Desperately Seeking Roommate

When I put the ad in my university’s newspaper, the last thing I ever expect is for the star football player to respond.

From what I know of him, Abel Russo is a womanizer and an absolute jerk.

Sadly, he’s the only thing stopping me from being evicted by my annoyingly gleeful landlord.

It should be easy enough—there’s no chance we’ll fall for each other. But then he gives me lingering looks, and I might just be looking back. 

All I wanted was a roommate, but I’m about to get so much more than I bargained for.

Hi. I’m Micalea. Ma-call-e-uh. Weird name, I know. My mom must’ve known I was going to be odd even in the womb. I’ve written a lot of books. Like a lot. Don’t ask me how many, I don’t remember at this point. I have an unhealthy addiction to Diet Coke but I can’t seem to break the habit. I listen to way too much music and hedgehogs have taken over my life. Crazy is the word that best sums up my life, but it’s the good kind of crazy and I wouldn’t change it for anything.
