Can't Stay Away




Can’t Stay Away
by Lilly Avalon
NOW LIVE!




Piper Winchester is fresh out of college. With only three weeks until her father remarries and five weeks until her first business venture launches, she's got her hands full. She certainly doesn't need any distractions to get in the way of building the future her father's always wanted for her. But when a familiar boy with bright green eyes walks back into her life, she's thrown for a loop. Four years ago, Chase MacKenzie left for college without looking back. He didn't mean to disturb the peace then, and he definitely doesn't want to do that now. Once he lays his eyes on Piper again, there's no way he can leave without fixing what went wrong in the past. Although she's more determined than ever to push him away, he still manages to get under her skin. Regardless of what happens between them, there's one thing that will always be standing in their way... He's about to become her stepbrother.













Lilly Avalon is the author of the RESIST series as well as other romances. She's somewhere in the midst of her twenties and lives mostly in the stories in her head. When she's not enveloped in the worlds she creates, she's out in the real world making stories happen. That or reading other romances. It's a toss-up.

This is War, Baby

ThisIsWar_BlitzThis is War, Baby by K. Webster 
Publication Date: February 29, 2016 
Genres: Contemporary, Dark Romance

  This is War Baby FRONT ONLY



My life had a plan. Until he invaded it and stole it all away. My captor took me and I became a pawn.
His strategy changed and he sent me away to WAR, because money is everything in this world.

In my WAR, though, I found peace.

I couldn’t help but find love where I least expected it, with a man who lived a battle every day of his life …all inside his head.

But then my captor came back for me.
Yet, this time, battle lines had been drawn and I was protected.

So we thought.
Even though my WAR was raging, my captor would fight to the death.
The good guys always win, right? Not always.

All’s fair in love and WAR, right?
Not this time.

Warning: This is War, Baby is a dark romance. A really dark one. So dark you’re going to wish you had a flashlight to see yourself to the end and someone to hold your hand. Human trafficking, dubious consent, and strong sexual themes that could trigger emotional distress are found in this story. This story is NOT for everyone.

Soulless














Bear & Thia’s epic conclusion is FINALLY HERE!

SOULLESS IS LIVE! 

PROLOGUE
I was mad at the world, at the whiskey for not being strong enough, at the drugs for not lasting long enough, at the fucking whores I banged for not getting me off when it was my fault my dick was fucking useless after a bucket of fucking blow. I went so far as to be pissed at random people on the street for laughing or smiling when I felt like I’d never be able to smile or laugh again.

How dare they?

How fucking dare they be move on with their lives like my friend hadn’t just died.
I was on the verge of losing what little sanity I had left when I rode out of Logan's Beach and set off to find a place, or places, where I could numb myself against the feelings that followed me from town to town, cheap motel to cheap motel, girl to girl, high to fucking high.
Then, this pink haired girl from the past came barreling into my life and it was like for the first time, I’d found a purpose. A real genuine purpose and not just some shit Chop spewed out as orders that I and every other member of the Beach Bastards took as bible, but a true reason to live again.

To WANT to live again.

Someone to live for.

Ti was my chance at some sort of real happiness when Lord fucking knows I had no idea what that really was before her. The only glimpses of real genuine happiness I'd ever had came courtesy of Preppy, King, and of course Grace. Like when King tattooed us for the first time and we loved them, even though they were crooked and downright fucking awful. Like when Grace made me my very first birthday cake. Like the time King Prep and I sat at the top of the water tower and thought the world was ours to take.

Because at that time, it was.

Then there was Ti and my new happiness became the first time I saw her smile. The first time I kissed her. The first time I tasted her pussy by the fire. The first time she let me inside of her, shamelessly pushing through her virginity in a frantic need to make her mine.

Because that's what she was.

That's what she would always be.

And I will kill every motherfucker who dares to try and take her from me.

Mine.

Soulless picks up where Bear and Thia's story left off in the previous book, and had me on the edge of my seat from the beginning. I was really excited to finally get everything concluded and see this couple get their HEA. 

I really liked these characters, their relationship was a like a battle taking place, bloody and dark, and it doesn't end without pain. I was rooting for them from the very beginning and couldn't wait to see what else TM Frazier could bring from them. Thia really showed her strength in this book, and I loved seeing that, and it really made her perfect for Bear. Apart they were two damaged people fighting their way through life, but together they were strength and courage, and now one could break them.

We were also introduced to a new character, Rage, who took some getting used to, but after I did, I started to like her. At first I was a little annoyed at her over the top character, but as the story went on, her craziness was actually kind of cool, and I really hope something will come of her character, and that this isn't the end to her.

With all of that being said, it pains me to also say that I was a little disappointed by Bear and Thia's conclusion. This book ended up being the quintessential ending to a cliffhanger, different and full of more questions. I used to avoid any book with a cliffhanger because I could never deal with getting the next part only to realize that the characters did a complete turn around in personality, and that some of the plotlines didn't follow to the next book.Sadly, that's what happened with this story, Bear seemed different, which didn't make sense to me, and the book was just a lot slower. 

A part of me was super excited by the ending. Like hyperventilating kind of excited, and it brought up so many questions that I can't wait to be answered. But then once the excitement died down some I was left confused, and still am. I don't understand how it's possible? Is it even what we think it was? Just, how? These questions are still bothering me! And I don't even know if I'll be happy with any of the possible answers to them because it just really doesn't make sense to me.

Overall, I liked the story, and I was happy with Bear and Thia finally getting their well deserved HEA. There were many moments that had my heart racing as I read it, and I loved that it could affect me in that way. I had my issues with it, but the bottom line is that it's a good read that anyone who likes a darker tale should pick up. 


From Sanctum with Love



Psychologist Kai Ferguson has had his eye on Kori Williamson for a long time. His assistant is everything he’s ever wanted in a partner—smart, caring, witty, and a bit of a masochist. More than a little, actually, but that’s the problem. Kori won’t admit her own desires. She’s afraid of him and what he has to offer. Luckily for her, helping patients face their fears is one of his specialties.

Kori knows she wants Kai. Her boss is the most amazing man she’s ever met. She’s also smart enough to stay away from him. Having been down this road before, she knows it only leads to heartache. She’s just found a place where she can belong. Another failed relationship is the last thing she needs. It’s better to guard her heart and let Kai think she’s frightened of his dark, dominant nature.

When Kai is recruited for an operation with McKay-Taggart, everything is turned upside down. Kai’s brother, international superstar Jared Johns, is in town and Kai must juggle his family issues along with a desperate hunt for a serial killer. The investigation throws Kori and Kai together, and they quickly discover the chemistry between them is undeniable. But even if their newfound love can survive his secrets and her lies, it may not be enough to save them both from a killer’s twisted obsession.

Kori ran from her life in Hollywood when it all got to be too much. She's much safer from emotional pain being a secretary for Kai Ferguson, a psychologist that works out of a BDSM club. Crazy, right? But for Kori, it's the perfect escape seeing as she's a masochist. She hides that part of herself from her friends, and definitely from her boss, though, because she's afraid of being hurt again. 

Kai has had his eye on his secretary for awhile, but he's too afraid to try anything with her since he thinks he isn't what she needs. But when the Feds need his help catching a serial killer, who they happen to think is his brother, it leads to both Kai and Kori's past coming back, and pushes them together. Soon they realize that the secrets they were both hiding, make them closer than they ever thought.

I can sometimes get bored with a series once it goes on for too many books, but this is the tenth book and the series is still going strong. Each book focuses mainly on the two important characters so there isn't any going back to catch up with old characters, that frankly, after their book is done, I don't care about anymore. I think that's why this is one of my favorite series and this author is an automatic read for me. 

This series is always very action packed and suspenseful, and while this book was the same in that aspect, it was also very different at times. McKay-Taggert is still a big part of the story, but not as focused on like in previous books. We still got to see the team kicking some ass, but it was more focused on the mystery of the killer, and Kai and Kori figuring out their relationship. 

I really liked the characters, probably more than I thought I would, and I enjoyed getting to know them more. Both Kai and Kori have been in the earlier books but we never knew much about them, so I really liked seeing their relationship develop and learning more about their characters. They were both interesting, and had me wanting more of them until the very end of the book. 

Overall, I loved this book and it was a great addition to this series. There's one person's story that I am dying for so I was a little disappointed when I learned that it was Kai and Kor's book next, but now that I've read it, I'm happy that it was. But it did get me ten times more excited for the upcoming books.

When I'm With You Cover Reveal


Coming soon from New York Times Bestselling Author Harper Sloan is the third book in the Hope Town Series   WhenImWithYoufull 



Nate: 
It’s nearly impossible to be surrounded by love but not understand it. My parents, my sister, and just about everyone around us has no trouble accepting that love. To give your trust to someone else and believe they would die before hurting you. I’ve witnessed it—I’ve seen the power of it—but I’ve also seen the pain. Because for me, I’ve only loved someone I could never have, and my biggest fear is that by giving her my love, all I would do is ruin her. I should have tried harder, but I’m not sure I can because I only feel complete when I’m with her. 
Emberlyn: 
The only time I feel like I belong is when he’s near. His infectious smile warms me straight to my bones. Any insecurities I have vanish with just a wink from him. A sliver of his attention makes me feel invincible. But all it took was one drunken night of truths for me to lose everything I had begun to crave. Now, I’m not sure how to move on because I only feel complete when I’m with him.   He said I was too young. I said he was perfect. He said our families wouldn’t understand. I said we could weather any storm. He said he would ruin me. And he was right.

RoomHate



Swoon-worthy Justin Banks is FINALLY HERE in
 RoomHate by Penelope Ward!  

AVAILABLE ON ALL RETAILERS:

Blurb

From New York Times Bestselling Author, Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.

Sharing a summer house with a hot-as-hell roommate should be a dream come true, right? 

Not when it’s Justin…the only person I’d ever loved…who now hates me.

When my grandmother died and left me half of the house on Aquidneck Island, there was a catch: the other half would go to the boy she helped raise.

The same boy who turned into the teenager whose heart I broke years ago.

The same teenager who’s now a man with a hard body and a hardass personality to match.

I hadn’t seen him in years, and now we’re living together because neither one of us is willing to give up the house.

The worst part? He didn’t come alone.

I’d soon realize there’s a thin line between love and hate. I could see through that smug smile. Beneath it all…the boy is still there. So is our connection. 

The problem is…now that I can’t have Justin, I’ve never wanted him more.

Author's note – RoomHate is a full-length standalone novel. Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

It's time to come home, Finn. It’s been seven years since Daniel Finley left his hometown in Florida for the hustle and bustle of Chicago’s city life. Since then, he’s worked hard for his position at the prestigious law firm Leighton & Associates, even when it’s caused distance and isolation from his family and friends. But that’s all about to change. On his thirtieth birthday, he receives the one thing he never dared hope for. Something that was promised to him years earlier—a note. One simple sentence from the man he’s never been able to forget.

Six words will forever change the course of their lives. Brantley Hayes has it all. Or so he thinks. When he first made the decision to take a job down in Florida, his family thought he was crazy. But, after years of living in the quiet beach town, he finally feels a sense of community. He’s surrounded himself with friends who are like family, has a job he loves, and owns a spectacular beachfront property that is his sanctuary. Yet he still feels unfulfilled, as if a piece of the puzzle is missing, and he knows exactly which piece it is. On an impulse, he follows through with a promise he made years earlier. A promise to call home the one he sent away.

Nothing is as simple as it seems. After years of separation, the former lovers are reunited, but Brantley wasn’t expecting to encounter the high walls now guarding Daniel’s heart. Daniel may not be the same person he was when he left, but he knows that the first step to healing is the note in his hand.

HEALING LOVE
Love to the Extreme #4
Abby Niles
Releasing February 15th, 2016
Entangled


Doctor Ella Watts wants her old life back. Desperately. But the past has returned for its rematch, and going back home—even telling anyone her real name—isn’t an option until she’s confident in her MMA abilities. Personal trainer Lance Black is the man to help her reach her goals. Not only is he toned, muscular, and gorgeous, he’s patient, a great teacher, and willing to treat her like a worthy opponent. Except his size makes her freeze whenever he gets too close. If Ella can’t learn how to overcome her fear of being attacked, she’ll never be able to move on with her life.

Underground fighter Lance Black knows there’s more to the mysterious blonde ninja than a beautiful woman determined to improve her fighting skills. She can best anyone close to her size – man or woman – but insists on working out with him, even though he’s got a good 70 pounds and several inches on her. Despite her reticence, he’s determined to get her to open up so he can help her get over her mental block. And if that means he can get to know her outside the gym, all the better.

As long as she never learns his secrets.

Ella aka Kelsey ran away from her past when it got to be too scary. Before she will allow herself to go back home she wants to train with a light-heavyweight MMA fighter, and get over her fear of bigger men. The plan was never to get mixed up with her trainer, and it certainly wasn't to fall for him. 

Lance has enough to deal with in his own life so he doesn't need to get involved in someone else's life. But when he meets the woman he's supposed to be training, he knows she has secrets, and he want's to help her let go of what she holds so deep. Soon, though, it's not just her past that he needs to worry about, and his is starting to haunt him too.Question is, can he safe them both? 

I started this series when it the first book was released, and I was instantly a fan. I love these stories and how there's always MMA in them, but how that part of the story doesn't take over the book. Healing Love reminded me how much I love the characters that Abby Niles creates.

I loved how strong Ella was, she didn't just run from her past, she left so that she could get the courage to live at home. I liked that she wasn't just some tough girl that didn't show her fear, she took her fear and did something with it. Honestly she was the character I liked the most from this book because of how courageous she was, and how we got to see the path she took to become that strong. 

Usually it's the heroine that I only sort of like, and the Hero that I fall madly in love with, but this time it was different. Lance was only okay for me. I liked his character but I wanted more from him, there just seemed to be a few things missing from his life that I wanted to know, and some of the things we were told didn't seem like they were focused on enough. 

Overall, this book was just as good as the rest of the series and if you haven't read this author, I strongly recommend her books. The story was amazing, and the characters captured my attention from the first chapter. Even though I felt like I was missing some things about Lance, I definitely recommend this one.
