About Jewel:

Jewel is a free-spirited romance junkie with a quirky sense of humor.

With 10 years of flossing lectures under her belt, she took early retirement from her dental hygiene career to stay home with her three awesome boys and manage the family business.

After her best friend of nearly 30 years suggested a few books from the Contemporary Romance genre, Jewel was hooked. Devouring two and three books a week but still craving more, she decided to practice sustainable reading, AKA writing.

When she’s not donning her cape and saving the planet one tree at a time, she enjoys yoga with friends, good food with family, rock climbing with her kids, watching How I Met Your Mother reruns, and of course…heart-wrenching, tear-jerking, panty-scorching novels.

New Release: The History In Us, by L.B. Dunbar

 

 

Cover Design: Shanoff Formats

 

Release Date: June 2, 2017

 

 

Synopsis

 

Are you a hero yet?

Her words rang in my head.

I wanted to be.

For you, I want to be, I told her in my dream, the dream where she kissed me again.

 

A hero-worthy kiss.

 

Stay safe, she had said. Come back to me.

My lips tingled.

The brush of hers over mine a memory held in the blackest of night,

the hottest of desert days,

and the cold-evil hell of war against hidden enemies.

 

I wanted another chance to taste those lips,

melt them against mine,

and mold her body to me.

I wanted to live.

For Katie.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Tank, by Laramie Briscoe

18623259_1450757968315118_3572573769277115560_o.jpg

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Laramie Briscoe puts out another heartfelt read with Tank! And I really enjoyed the maturity between the main characters in this second-chance romance as they dealt with their issues and came to a resolution.

Tank is the story of Trevor, Whitney’s brother from Renegade, and the story begins with the car crash in Renegade that nearly killed Trevor. Tank’s ex-girlfriend, Blaze, is one of the medics who responds to the call, and as Trevor fights for his life, she is forced to come to terms with how much she loves him and whether she’s willing to fight to salvage their relationship.

When Blaze moves in with Tank to help him with his recovery, the pair must face their demons, and honestly answer some tough questions about their relationship and the reasons behind their split. It was refreshing to see how Blaze and Tank handle the situation like mature adults, and really take to heart just how delicate life can be and to not take things for granted.

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: My Best Friend’s Ex, by Meghan Quinn

SBPRBanner-MyBestFriendsEX-BT.jpg

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

I cannot believe that I didn’t immediately realize that Tucker was Sadie’s ex from Co-Wrecker! That book was one of the best and funniest that I’ve read all year. I fell hard for Sadie and Andrew, but felt kinda bad for her ex, since Tucker clearly was having problems moving on. He came off as a bit desperate in Co-wrecker and unwilling to face the fact that Sadie met someone else.

Which brings us to My Best Friend’s Ex, set about a year after Co-Wrecker. Tucker is still hung up on Sadie, heartbroken over the end of their relationship. While drowning his sorrows at the local bar one night, he runs into one of Sadie’s best friends, Emma (who we also met in Co-wrecker). She is about to be evicted, lonely Tucker lives all by himself in the house he bought for Sadie, and before you can say “girl code,” Sadie’s got herself a place to live. And then the fun begins!

MBEteaser.jpg

WOW! Meghan Quinn outdid herself with Tucker’s story. He is so lonely and heartbroken and stuck in the past, and Quinn beautifully describes that brokenness. There is a true ease to Tucker and Emma’s friendship, and the way Quinn writes it, the reader is right there as they fall for each other despite their best efforts in a very organic way. One of my biggest pet peeves is when I’m TOLD such is true. I want to READ it, experience it along with the characters. And the reader gets to go on every step of the journey with Tucker and Emma in My Best Friend’s Ex.. I FELT all of Emma’s fears and insecurities right along with her when it came to how Tucker was with Sadie, and if she was nothing more than a distraction for him. And I loved how Tucker slowly comes back to life with Emma as his roommate, without even realizing that he’s developing feelings for her.

My Best Friend’s Ex was absolute perfection!

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Remember, by Dylan Allen

Remember_Amazon_iBooks.jpg

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Remember is so much more than a second-chance romance. After her marriage implodes, Milly is forced to reevaluate who she is, where she came from, and where she wants to go. As she sets out to chart a new course for herself, she crosses paths with her high school love, Dean. The man she never got over. And he never got over her. And while Dean’s reasons for orchestrating their reunion weren’t with the best of intentions, the couple ultimately overcome lots of obstacles in this emotional story to be together, including facing the demons of not only their own pasts, but those of their parents.

 

rememberteaser6.jpg

This book is the second in a series, and while it is a standalone, there were a few plot holes that I think could have been plugged up better for a reader like me who did not read the first book, Rise (which is the story of Milly’s sister, Addie, and apparently lays out the foundation to their father’s disappearance). I also felt that certain elements towards the end of the story felt rushed just to get to the HEA, but overall, Remember was a solid story that kept me entertained not only in terms of enjoying how Dean helps Milly “remember” who she was and explore her sexual awakening, but with the mystery surrounding her father’s vanishing act as well.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Mr. Fiancé, by Lauren Landish

55e44e617bc9e865b718e46c9102113212df28c3.jpg

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

I absolutely adored Mindy as Bri’s best friend in Anaconda. She was so sassy and full of spunk, so I was thrilled to hear that Lauren Landish was giving Mindy her own story.

Generally, the fake relationship trope is not a favorite of mine. Too often, the main characters falling for each other feels forced to me, and by the time they get to The Conflict that makes them realize their feelings for one another are genuine, I don’t feel emotionally invested. But that was not the case with Mr. Fiancé. Yes, this follows the basic formula of a fake relationship pact, but Landish did a great job in showing (as opposed to telling!) the reader how Oliver and Mindy were starting to fall for one another. There are a lot of little moments between the characters that sealed the deal for me, so by the time The Conflict arose and Mindy discovered Oliver’s reasons for agreeing to be her fiancé for a week, I was totally rooting for this couple to just get it together!

Oliver handled the argument in a mature way, and how he goes about wooing Mindy for real was so on point! Mr. Fiancé also had enough of the characters’ friendships with Brie and Gavin (from Anaconda) sprinkled in throughout the storyline that gives the reader an update on that couple without taking away from the story of Mindy and Oliver themselves.

Now, can we please get Roxy and Anthony paired up next???

✵✵✵COMING JUNE 7!✵✵✵
Sometimes the wrong choices bring us to the right places.

When I meet David Carmichael it’s as if the universe offered him as an apology for my life up to this point.

With his protective arm around me, he promises to keep me safe from the demons of my not-so-distant past.

But David has demons of his own … and even if meeting him felt like destiny, maybe karma isn’t so cut and dry.

Bad things happen to good people every day … and everyone is hiding something.

A house of cards will inevitably fall … I just hope the one we’ve built won’t end up in flames.

✵✵Prologue #SneakPeek ✵✵

Michelle

I never thought I’d be the girl with a gun in her face. Someone like me isn’t supposed to understand the way fear boils in your gut when you stare at the business end of a deadly weapon.

But here we are. I guess bad guys don’t understand that bad things shouldn’t happen to good girls.

He thumbs the hammer and fear sears through my veins like fire down a fuse. The tiny click might as well be a lightning strike. Chills race across my skin and I forget what it means to breathe.

“Is this what you want?” My husband steps towards me, the gun trembling in his hands as spittle flies from his lips. “Or is it this?” He presses the thing against his temple and I run from the room, chased by the demons in his head.

I grab my daughter, her wrist fragile in my fist. “Why is he doing this, Mommy?”

I press a hand to my chest, begging my heart to slow while I hold in the bits and pieces that crack off and crumble inside me. I pull my daughter down the hallway, her little feet stumbling behind me as her father lumbers out of our bedroom.

“Damn it, Michelle! Get your ass back here!” His voice eats through my resolve like acid through metal.

I grab my phone before I lose my nerve. Dial 911 as I race out of our home, praying the neighbors open the door in time.

“Why, Mommy? Why is he doing this?” Claire’s wide eyes stand out like little moons in the dark.

“Because,” I say as I run across the yard, grass clippings sticking to my bare feet. “I told him he couldn’t anymore.”

Now Live! My Best Friend’s Ex, by Meghan Quinn

SBPRBanner-MyBestFriendsEX-RB

My Best Friend’s Ex, an all new sexy, laugh out loud romantic comedy from Meghan Quinn is now LIVE!

MyBestFriendsEx

My Best Friend’s Ex by Meghan Quinn
Publication Date: June 1st, 2017

Genre: Contemporary Romance

 

 

Synopsis

 

When I found an eviction notice taped on my apartment door, I had two options: find a comfortable cardboard box to call home, or move in with Tucker Jameson.

Seeing that cardboard makes me feel itchy, I chose the latter. Which shouldn’t be that big of a deal since Tucker is one of my good friends. And because he’s still pining after his ex-girlfriend and I’m trying to finish my nursing degree, there is nothing to worry about in the romance department, making my last semester an easy one to conquer.

Boy, was I wrong.

Rules are set, dinners are made, conversations are had, and a shirtless, swoony roommate walks around in nothing but a pair of black briefs, ruining me for every other man.

Before I know it, I turn into a panting, lust-filled woman begging for Tucker to kiss me, touch me, and show me exactly what is hiding under those briefs.

But with great orgasms, comes great consequences.

Tucker might be my friend and roommate but he’s also my best friend’s ex-boyfriend, making him completely off-limits. At least that’s what my brain is telling me, my heart is speaking an entirely different language.

A BLONDE AT HEART

Born in New York and raised in Southern California, Meghan has grown into a sassy, peanut butter eating, blonde haired swearing, animal hoarding lady. She is known to bust out and dance if “It’s Raining Men” starts beating through the air and heaven forbid you get a margarita in her, protect your legs because they may be humped.

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.

​Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!

Teaser Reveal: Changing Hearts, by Terri E. Laine

Changing Hearts an all-new romance by Terri E. Laine is coming June 8th!

June 1st teaser (1).jpg

Most people see Sawyer Cargill as a gorgeous but cocky guy who doesn’t take anything seriously including the trail of hearts he’s left behind.

 

But there’s so much more beyond the jokes and the sexual innuendos; behind the mask he so carefully wears. It’s in the way he takes care of others, including me. It’s in the glimpses of the pain he carries in his soul.

 

I see him for who he really is. I know his heart is capable of changing from thorns and ice to love and flame.

 

It’s more than a little hero worship. I’m in love with him.

 

But, I’m not the only point of this triangle. Someone else who is important to us loves him too. How can there be joy if he chooses me when I know the other person will be hurt?

 

Together he and I will have to figure that out because when I have him, I won’t let him go.
