The Brightest Stars, a beautiful and gripping novel from New York Times and #1 internationally bestselling author Anna Todd, is LIVE!

The Brightest Stars AMAZON.jpg

International bestselling author Anna Todd returns with a gripping novel about a young woman’s journey towards love, and the obstacles life throws up at every turn.

Karina knows the harsh realities of military life. And like anyone who has grown up around an army base, she knows the background noise that follows a soldier home from war. That’s why she’s forging her own quiet life in her own little house. But she hasn’t turned her back on her family. She’s the glue that holds them together–when her father is deployed, when her brother, Austin, has another brush with the law.

Karina knows that she has to look after herself, that she can’t always fix what’s broken. But when Austin’s behavior worsens and her father’s reactions grow more extreme, Karina feels her own edges beginning to fray. That’s when she meets him–a closed book she’s desperate to open.

At just twenty, Kael is a handsome, brooding soldier struggling with the aftermath of two tours in Afghanistan. He’s emotionally damaged and closed off. Quiet doesn’t begin to describe him. But as Karina gets used to his stable presence, she finds it hard to ignore the way he makes her feel. In their time together, she finds the stillness she has always wanted and never found. She lets down her guard. And she lets herself fill in the blanks about this mysterious man.

But illusions quickly made are quickly shattered. That’s when Karina has to find her own courage–to untangle the truth from the lies, and decide what she’s going to do about it.

A riveting story about love and lies, THE BRIGHTEST STARS will stay with you long after the last page has been turned.

Cover Reveal: Royally Yours, by Emma Chase

 

 

 

 

 

Princess Lenora Celeste Beatrice Arabella Pembrook had an unusual childhood. She was raised to be a Queen—the first Queen of Wessco.

It’s a big deal.

When she’s crowned at just nineteen, the beautiful young monarch is prepared to rule. She’s charming, clever, confident and cunning.

What she isn’t…is married.

It’s her advising council’s first priority. It’s what Parliament is demanding, and what her people want.

Lenora has no desire to tie herself to a man—particularly one who only wants her for her crown. But compromises must be made and royals must do their duty.

Even Queens. Especially them.

**

Years ago, Edward Langdon Richard Dorian Rourke, walked away from his title and country. Now he’s an adventurer—climbing mountains, exploring jungles, going wherever he wants, when he wants—until family devotion brings him home.

And a sacred promise keeps him there.

To Edward, the haughty, guarded little Queen is intriguing, infuriating…and utterly captivating. Wanting her just might drive him mad—or become his greatest adventure.

**

Within the cold, stone walls of the royal palace—mistrust threatens, wills clash, and an undeniable, passionate love will change the future of the monarchy forever.

Every dynasty has a beginning. Every legend starts with a story.

This is theirs.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: No Tomorrow, by Carian Cole

 

Title: No Tomorrow
Author: Carian Cole
Genre: Contemporary Romance Standalone
 Release Date: September 13, 2018
Blurb
The people we love are thieves.

They steal our hearts. They steal our breath.

They steal our sanity.

And we let them.

Over and over and over again.
They say you never forget your first time.

Mine was with a homeless musician who effed my brains out under a
bridge.

He was my first love. And fourteen years later, I still can’t get him out of my
head.

He broke all my rules.

He also broke my heart.

I watched him climb to stardom, cheering him on from afar.

But I was never a fan; just a girl in love.

Like a tornado, he spiraled, leaving a path of destruction in his wake.

But love conquers all, right? It has to. Because here I stand, ravaged and
ruined, needing it to be true.

You can’t go back, but I want to. Back to the bridge. Back to when he sang only
for me. Before he was famous. Before he shattered my heart.

I thought I knew everything about him.

But I could not have been more wrong.

He promised me every tomorrow. And here I am, waiting.

And hoping.

Again.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

No Tomorrow is super-intense, and deals with a whole host of dark issues like addiction and mental health. Carian Cole doesn’t sugar-coat Blue’s struggles one bit, but handles it in an interesting, entertaining and delicate manner. The story spans years as Piper and Blue struggle together and apart, each finding their way in life. And Blue is so, so lost at times. My heart ached. They love each other so much, but there is so much working against them.

If you are looking for a great angst-filled read, then definitely check out No Tomorrow. It will run you through the gamut of emotions, but it’s such a beautiful and gut-wrenching love story. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

New Release: The Good Samaritan, by RC Boldt

 

Title: The Good Samaritan
Author: RC Boldt
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: September 18, 2018
Blurb
The biggest story of her life is the one he wants to
hide.
I’m homeless by
choice.
I have no intention
of returning to my former life after what I’ve done.
This—living among
the filth and discarded remnants of others—is what I deserve.
As atonement for my
sins, I give back; I help those who cannot help themselves. But it’s always
under the guise of anonymity.
Newspaper headlines
throughout the city are clamoring to discover my identity.  Including the
beautiful woman who manages to see through my “armor.”
She has the
capability to put my entire life at risk.

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

This book blew me away. I’ve read several books by RC, and they were light-hearted stories that had funny, quirky characters. Good Samaritan is a more serious book, and not your typical romance. It’s gritty, it’s intense, and it will restore your faith in humankind.

Jude is homeless by choice, paying a self-inflicted penance for a horrible tragedy five years earlier by going around the city doing good deeds. He crosses paths with reporter Faith when her car runs out of gas, and a tentative friendship forms between them that is strengthened when Jude is befriended by Faith’s friend, Father James. But when Faith’s next assignment is to expose the city’s Good Samaritan, everything changes between them.

This was such an amazing story of forgiveness, love, judgement, unconventional family and simple kindness. The connection between Jude and Faith was immediate and I fell in love with them instantly. Jude doesn’t feel he’s with being loved, and Faith has lived her entire life not being “enough.” But together, they are magnificent.

We should all take a page from Jude’s book. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Release Blitz: More Than Crave You, by Shayla Black

MTCY_RELEASE BLITZ.jpg

Logical. Rich. Driven. And he wants her. . .

More Than Crave You, an all-new sexy standalone from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Shayla Black is LIVE!

04 MoreThanCraveYou.jpg

I’m Evan Cook—billionaire tech entrepreneur and widower. Professionally, I’ve got it all. But since my wife died, my personal life has fallen apart. Remarrying seems like the obvious answer, so I place an ad. I’m not asking for much. The ideal woman only needs to be smart, organized, pretty, and helpful—both in and out of bed—without expecting romance. I never thought to look right in front of me…but it turns out that Nia Wright, my sexy, sassy assistant, just might be the perfect candidate.

After an unexpectedly hot night together, I’m ready to stop interviewing strangers and simply marry her. On paper, she ticks every box on my list. Best of all, she’s far too sensible to fall for me. I didn’t see the flaw in my logic until it was too late. I never thought I’d lose my heart for the first time. And I definitely never imagined Nia could consume me. But she’s harboring a secret that could tear us apart. Can I prove I more than crave her before it’s too late?

One Rule: No More Men.
Two years ago I walked away from a marriage I
thought would last forever and all I got from it was Dick … 
and I don’t mean the one between my stupid ex’s
legs. 
I’m talking about the one hundred fifty pound
furry dog said ex dropped off at my doorstep.
But I’d take Dick
over any man, any day. 
So why did I
resemble my dog, panting and drooling, whenever I ran into Hudson West, my sexy
new neighbor?
True, the gorgeous
veterinarian was hotter than sin.
And my new roommate
only made it impossible for me to avoid conversation with a man I didn’t need.
Until tragedy struck and some jerk decided to run
Dick down.
It was hotter than sin Hudson who
came to his rescue. 
Then it became impossible to ignore him. 
It was only supposed to be a fling, a quickie, a
one and done.
We both had reasons
to keep it that way … my one rule and his five-year-old son.
Except things didn’t quite work out that way.
One turned into two, then three, annnnd you get

Before we knew it, he gave me a lot more than
puppies and fairy tales.
And that stupid rule?
I should’ve stuck to it because now more
than my heart was at risk.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: It Started With A Lie, by Lisa Suzanne

 

 

Title: It Started with a Lie
Series: Truth and Lies Duet #1
Author: Lisa Suzanne
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: September 17, 2018

 

Blurb
Brian Fox is desperate for cash. When his business falls
into debt, he turns yet again to his rock star brother. Only this time, his
brother refuses to throw money at the problem…he intends to solve it. Enter
Vivian Davenport, business fixer extraordinaire, supreme professional, and
Brian’s new boss.
Brian has always called the shots, but now he’s the one
taking orders. When the tiny lie that Vivian is his new girlfriend slips out,
he’s forced to play the role of doting boyfriend to a woman he can’t stand.
It started as a lie, but what happens if it turns into the
truth?

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

NOT A STANDALONE! CLIFFHANGER!!

When I read Lisa Suzanne’s Destiny trilogy last summer, I was at first torn over whether I wanted Brian or his brother Mark to win the girl. But by the end of that series, I was #TeamMark and HATED Brian for being such a D-canoe. I seriously didn’t know how he could redeem himself in my eyes. He was that much of an arrogant ass.

It Started With A Lie is set three years later, and Brian is still pretty much a lying, manipulative asshole. But his lies are also causing things to financially spin out of control at his company, so he hits up silent partner Mark for another loan. But instead of just writing the check, Mark sends in a fixer, the beautiful Vivian. And Brian hates it. But he won’t tell his partners the trust about the financial disaster they are facing. So he pretends that Viv is his new girlfriend and hopes that they won’t catch on.

So… by the end of this book, I was an anxious wreck! The story is solely told through his POV, so the reader sees the shift in him as he goes from an obnoxious, lying playboy to someone who is terrified of the feelings that he’s developing. Feelings that he thought would forever be dormant. Brian grows so much after meeting Viv and completely changes! But is it too little, too late?

There is something holding Vivian back from starting a relationship with Brian, and it has nothing to do with crossing professional boundaries. I rightly suspected what her problem is… and now I need to wait for the sequel to find out what happens next!

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

About R.C. Stephens

As far back as R.C. Stephens can remember she was a sucker for a good romance. Of course there had to be a prince charming even if he ultimately was a dark knight and there had to be a happy ending.

She watched the movie Dirty Dancing way too many times growing up and Jean Claude Van Damme movies too. Go figure!

After years of saying she would write a book one day, she finally put pen to paper and carved out the plot line for what would eventually become the best selling Twisted Series. Now R.C. is just finishing up her tenth book and can’t seem to stop the stories running through her mind.
