Hollywood Scandal, an all-new contemporary romance by Louise Bay is available NOW!!

HollywoodScandal.Ebook.v3

HE’S A HOLLYWOOD SUPERSTAR. SHE’S LITERALLY THE GIRL NEXT DOOR

One of Hollywood’s A-listers, I have the movie industry in the palm of my hand. But if I’m going to stay at the top, my playboy image needs an overhaul. No more tabloid headlines. No more parties. And absolutely no more one night stands.

Filming for my latest blockbuster takes place on the coast of Maine and I’m determined to stay out of trouble. But trouble finds me when I run into Lana Kelly.

She doesn’t recognize me, she’s never heard of Matt Easton and my million dollar smile doesn’t work on her.

Ego shredded, I know I should keep my distance, but when I realize she’s my neighbor I know I’m toast. There’s no way I can resist temptation when it’s ten yards away.

She has a mouth designed for pleasure and legs that will wrap perfectly around my waist.

She’s movie star beautiful and her body is made to be mine.

Getting Lana Kelly into my bed is harder than I’m used to. She’s not interested in the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, but I’m determined to convince her the best place in the world is on the red carpet, holding my hand.

I could have any woman in the world, but all I want is the girl next door.

A sexy, standalone romance.

 

Excerpt:

 

Matt Easton

“You have a boyfriend?”

She took another sip of wine and set it back on the table before she replied. “You’ve half asked that before.”

I chuckled. True. Not that I was going to act differently if she told me—either way I needed to keep my distance. I just wanted to meet the man who had managed to land this woman. “And I’m still coming up empty.” I glanced at the rise and fall of her creamy breasts, only barely covered by her camisole, and swallowed. Hard. I really should leave.

“See that?” she asked, pointing up over the ocean. “Lightning. And again.”

“Wow, that nearly cut the sky in half.”

Our eyes locked first in excited, shared understanding and then the connection transformed into something that had nothing to do with the lightning. She looked away first. I would have stayed, my eyes fixed on hers the whole night, if she hadn’t. “The air feels charged with something.”

“I don’t have a boyfriend,” she whispered.

It was an invitation, and not one I wanted to turn down. I wanted to touch her, see if her lips were as soft as they looked.

“I want to kiss you,” I said, shifting so that she, and not the storm, had all my attention.

The thunder rumbled again.

Despite the noise surrounding us, I could only focus on the sound of her breathing. My pulse jumped under my skin, at my neck, in my wrists, in my dick.

I really shouldn’t be doing this.

But it was just a kiss.

And she was so beautiful.

And then it would be over.

I slid my thumb over her bottom lip. “Look at me,” I said.

My gaze flickered down as her breasts rose with her breath. It took every ounce of control not to yank her cami down and put my mouth on that warm, soft, pliant flesh.

As I looked at her, our eyes locked, and this time heat passed back and forth between us, growing more scorching with each passing moment.

She wanted me to kiss her. Maybe even strip her naked on this deck and fuck her hard and long until I knew every part of her.

I groaned, blood rushing to my dick, and leaned in to press my lips softly on the corner of her mouth. Her breath was hot and heavy against my cheek. I dropped my hand to her ass and slid her onto my lap.

Wrapping my hands around her silky hair that smelled of the ocean, I pulled, tilting her head back and exposing her neck.

I’d been kidding myself to think this was just a kiss. I wasn’t sure if it was because it had been so long since I’d fucked someone new or whether it was the storm or just the way Lana looked at me, but my whole body reverberated with lust. I wanted to touch, hold, possess her.

I trailed my teeth along her jaw and she squirmed in my lap. I slid my palms up her thighs and lifted her so she was straddling me.

Just a kiss. Right.

I wanted her closer, so I wrapped my hand around the back of her neck and brought her mouth to mine in a fractured, desperate connection. With my other hand, I pushed her ass against me. The heat of her covered pussy against my erection made me groan. Sliding my tongue against the seam of her lips, I delved deeper. Fuck, I’d forgotten how hot making out could be. The stuff before the fucking. Before my reform, it had been all about release. All about seeing how fast I could have a woman’s mouth wrapped around my cock after making eye contact with her.

But not now. Not out here on the porch with Lana. All I could think about was how I couldn’t fuck her, how I’d never make it that far.

She smelled so damn good. Tasted even better.

About the Author

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life — a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She’s been a wife, though she’s certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she’s been drinking whiskey.

From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Filthy Beast, by B.B. Hamel

23603b74-deba-4daf-ba79-4969b9c47846.jpg

Blurb:

She calls me a filthy beast, but I know she still wants me.
Years ago, I left and broke her heart. I had no other choice back then.
Now I have one last chance, just one final night of passion.
But the memories are back and I might not be able to give her up . . .

After leaving the military, I move to L.A. and end up working as an actor on action movies, putting my SEAL skills to good use.

That’s how I find her again. We’re working on the same movie together. I still remember those delicious lips, and I know I have to have another taste.

I can see the anger in her eyes, even after all these years, which means she still wants me. She can’t let me go.

I need to remind her how good it felt to have me slowly strip the clothes from her skin. I taught her everything about how to make her body feel good, and now I want to get a lot deeper.

I have to feel that spark again, that magic, still strong after all this time. I can walk away once I’ve had her and never see her again if that’s what she needs.

But I forgot just how good it feels. I forgot how perfect we fit.

And now that I know… I’ll do anything to keep her.

Filthy Beast is a second chance romance with steamy scenes and bad language. It’s only recommended for readers 18+.

Filthy Beast is a STANDALONE, full-length novel. No cliffhanger. Guaranteed HEA

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

BB Hamel has great knack for writing steamy alpha males who set their sights on a woman and go after her, no matter what. And Jackson in Filthy Beast is no different.

Jackson and Tara were high school sweethearts, but then he disappeared one night without saying goodbye, and enlisted in the Navy. Ten years later, his career as a SEAL is done thanks to an injury, but he’s found a second career as a Hollywood stuntman-turned-action star. And the only reason he’s even bothered with this new career is to win back Tara, who works as a script coordinator. But will she be able to forgive him for breaking her heart?

Filthy Beast is full of hot scenes and dirty talk, but there’s a vulnerability to Jackson when it comes to Tara that is rather endearing. Of course, their road to reunion has a few obstacles, and how Jackson manages to knock them out of the way in order to get Tara back in his arms once and for all is quite impressive.

CBTM Teaser I see Him.jpg
Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Come Back To Me is an epically emotional rollercoaster. Adriana has experienced so much loss in her life, and she is drowning in the guilt of not being able to save her parents, her sister, her grandmother. But the biggest loss of all was the sudden, tragic death of her husband, Blake, whose death she’s still mourning. Except that he didn’t die. Four years later, the universe — fate — brings Blake and Adriana face to face again. Will she be able to forgive his betrayal? Can he convince her to come back to him?

This book is not a light read. It’s emotionally draining at some points, and deals with some sensitive subjects like addiction. The awful, heartbreaking decision that Blake was forced to make was done out of love and sacrifice. And I really appreciated that Coopmans doesn’t have them jumping back into where their marriage left off, because the consequences of his actions changed both of them immensely.

There were a few moments where the lines blurred between past recollections and current thoughts/conversations. But overall, Come Back To Me is a haunting tale of love, loss, sacrifice and the miracle of getting a second chance with the love of your life.

Taming Mr. Flirt is Coming Soon!

TMF-Teaser2.jpg

 

Taming Mr. Flirt, a sexy all-new standalone from A.M. Madden & Joanne Schwehm is coming September 12th!

 

Here’s a tip: never say never.

 

It all started in a barn, rolling around in the hay with a hot brunette. When I hooked up at my best friend’s wedding with the bride’s best friend, I had hay in places it should never be. And how my bowtie ended up around my dick was an entirely different story. I’ll give you a minute to consider the possibilities.

 

That first romp set the tone, and each sexual encounter with her that followed became more intense. The fact that all my fantastic orgasms were coming at the hand of one woman baffled me.

 

A lifetime of observation taught me that monogamy equated to boredom. Variety was the spice of life, in and out of the bedroom. I enjoyed the company of a sexy, smart, confident woman. It was my kryptonite. I was a master flirt, and my sexual skills were unrivaled.

 

Until her.

With this woman, I had met my match.

 

Her carnal appetite a perfect match for mine, and she also taught me a few things along the way.

 

She called me Mr. Flirt, and could bring me to my knees at every turn.

 

Lesson learned: Sex always trumps sanity.

image1.JPG

Because of Him an all-new romance by Terri E. Laine is coming September 7th!

Past and present intertwine with light and dark to tell a story …Because of Him

Something inside me fiercely craves normal.

Sheltered all my life and taught to be afraid, I want to be bold, fearless.

Up until now I’ve kept myself and my heart safe.

Tade Astor, a guy so hot he steals my breath away, jeopardizes it all.

He isn’t the kind of guy to give up on what he wants—me.

He’s determined to prove my safe world is missing something—him.

Even though he may not be the cocky guy I assumed him to be…

He’s definitely not the guy I should give my heart to.

But each time I see him, he becomes harder to resist.

I want to be brave and give him a chance… though it might come back to haunt me.

At the heart of Because of Him is a love story. But due to certain sensitive topics, it might not be suitable for all readers.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Hot Single Dad, by Claire Kingsley

20292575_460882430948660_1431935516441018544_n.jpg

Blurb:

Reasons I need to stop fantasizing about Linnea:

1. She’s too young for me.

2. She’s my daughter’s nanny.

I could stop there, couldn’t I? I’m already a cliché. The single dad who’s hot for the nanny. But it gets worse.

3. She’s my sister-in-law.

My wife died when our daughter was a baby, and Linnea was just a quiet teenager. I barely knew her. When my in-laws insist she move to Seattle to be my live-in nanny—after a string of caregivers who didn’t work out—I reluctantly agree.

I wasn’t counting on the smoking hot blonde with sinful curves, kissable lips, and shy smile.

Linnea is perfect for my daughter—fun, patient, and kind. She might be perfect for me too, but I can’t think that way. She needs to live her own life, not be saddled with my insta-family.

Being around her is a special kind of torture, but I have to keep this infatuation to myself. I can’t fall for my daughter’s nanny.

But it might be too late.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Claire Kingsley has done it again! I couldn’t wait to read this book cover to cover, but at the same time I didn’t want it to end because I have loved spending time with the Lawson family!

We first met Caleb in Book Boyfriend and Cocky Roommate — the hot, widowed surgeon struggling to raise his young daughter, Charlotte, with the demands of being an ER doctor. I often wondered, what was Caleb’s life like? Was he still hung up on his late wife? Did he not date because of his young daughter? Kingsley answers all of those questions in the very best way in Hot Single Dad as she tells the story of Caleb and his new nanny Linnea — who just so happens to be the younger sister of his late wife! Yes! Forbidden romance on top of the nanny/single dad trope!

Kingsley has Caleb and Linnea walk the perfect line between feeling sparks and not acting on them, so that the reader gets so invested in the characters that the build-up to their eventual first kiss was so worth the wait. Like with the rest of Kingsley’s characters (not just in this series, but in all of her books), Caleb and Linnea are real, relatable, likable and the struggles in their lives are commonplace to most ordinary folks. Then there’s the supporting players. The big old group of Lawsons. Can they adopt me?

The tight-knit Lawson bunch are such a big part of each other’s lives, as anyone who has read BB and CR know. So when they all gang up on poor Caleb in Chapter 7 — oh my goodness! Those were some of the funniest things I’ve ever read!! And I really liked how Weston — sweet, asshole Weston — was the one who ultimately convinced Caleb to get over his damn self and make a move before it’s too late.

Because Kingsley always knocks it out of the park with her epilogues, it’s no surprise that Caleb and Linnea get a HEA. But I absolutely adored the two-fer in her HEA. I read it with a tear in my eye. Amazing, Claire. Amazing. I wish there were more Lawson siblings because I didn’t want this series to end.

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

New Release! Hooked, by Karla Sorensen and Whitney Barbetti

 

RB Banner.jpg
Hooked Ebook Cover.jpg
Title: Hooked
Authors: Karla Sorensen & Whitney Barbetti
Genre: Dark Romantic Comedy
Release Date: August 23, 2017

 

Blurb
X and I were probably doomed from the start.That’s what happens when you meet in court-mandated group therapy and then try
to steal from him to pay off your blackmailing drug dealer. Former drug
dealer, thank you very much. I’m turning over a new leaf and all that.

Which is why I should leave him alone.

Except he tempts me to do things I swore I’d stop doing. It’s that whole gruff,
grumbly, anti-social thing he has going on. Him, flame. Me, moth. Something
about him calls to me, makes the blood hum in my body. And I don’t want that
feeling to end.
Lucy Connors is straight-up insane.

She looks like a Disney princess and tries my patience in more ways than I
thought possible. Besides the fact that I have to save her cute little ass from
jail, I can’t quite figure out how to leave her alone. Even when she’s trying
her hand at Breaking and Entering. Especially when it’s myhouse
she’s burglarizing.

Yeah, we were probably doomed from the start.

But that’s the thing about being hooked on something so good, and so bad for
you—you don’t walk away when you should.

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

I don’t think I’ve read a book with two mismatched characters more than X and Lucy. But they are just so hilarious together, I devoured this story in a single day.

Hooked Teaser 2.jpg

Everyone has their issues, and X has more than most. I love a good damaged hero, and X had it going on in spades. Reformed drug dealer Lucy is a hot, hot mess, and when X gets dragged into the shit-show that is her life, he is so far out of his comfort zone! I felt a teensy bit badly for X, but the escapades and criminal activity that these two embark on was just too hilarious to feel THAT badly for X.

Lucy and X are such beautifully flawed characters, but bring out the best in one another in such a pure way that I immediately fell in love with them both. For as much as she shakes up his organized, structured life, he grounds her in a way that she so desperately needs and has never had. (And therein lies my one complaint about this book: I wish the authors would have fleshed-out Lucy’s backstory more, because I felt like knowing more about her lack of family and why she had the upbringing she did would have provided a better insight to her current predicaments and behaviors.)

Hooked Teaser 4.jpg

Hooked is a darker romance than the other books I’ve read by Sorenson (her Bachelors Of The Ridge Series), and had a lighter feel than the Barbetti books I’ve read. There are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments in Hooked, so I’d still consider this a romcom.

Well, let’s see … I’m a wife and a mother. I’m a writer who wants to make people smile when they read my words. I own a dog that sheds roughly eighteen pounds of hair every day. I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob. If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies. I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I’ll love you forever.
