Today we have the blog tour for Truce? Hating Elijah Monroe by Amelia Kingston! Check it out and be sure to grab your copy today!

Title: Truce? Hating Elijah Monroe

Author: Amelia Kingston

Genre: Contemporary Romance

About Truce? Hating Elijah Monroe:

A small town enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy.

Harper Delaney is a newly certified elementary school teacher with the mountain of student loan debt to prove it. Moving back to her claustrophobically small hometown is about as tempting as two week old sushi, but the allure of free rent and a guaranteed summer teaching job are undeniable.

On the hunt for her dream job in San Francisco, Harper just needs to survive the summer without murdering Elijah Monroe. He may have grown into a scorchingly hot fireman, but he’s still her nemesis. Harper gave Elijah her heart when she was sixteen, and never forgave the jerk for not wanting it. Probably for the best, since he’s also her stepbrother.

Elijah still makes Harper’s blood boil and heart race. And he knows it. She’ll wipe that smug smirk off his gorgeous face before leaving town. The only question is if she wants to do it with a kiss or a slap.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

This book was so good! It started off kind of slow for me, but once I realized that Elijah was in love with Harper, it all clicked.

As the book flashes back and forth between when Elijah and Harper first meet as teenagers to the present day, we get a glimpse into their past and how nerdy, ordinary Harper never imagines that one of the hottest, most popular guys in school would ever look at her twice. Even if he was her stepbrother and lived across their shared bathroom. All of their interactions are tainted on her side as him being out of her league, and him barely standing the sight of her, but I could see from Elijah’s side how she was twisting it all wrong in her mind. And I loved it.

In present day, she is totally oblivious to his feelings for her, and it just kicks up the sexual chemistry so much between them. When they finally come together, it’s explosive. And then heartbreaking the next moment when Harper tries to run — thinking that Elijah is in love with a woman who is not her.

This story ends on a great HEA, and it was such a delight to read. I would love to see stories for Eli’s friends, too! I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Amelia Kingston is many things, the most interesting of which are probably California girl, writer, traveler, and dog mom. She survives on chocolate, coffee, wine, and sarcasm. Not necessarily in that order.

She’s been blessed with a patient husband who’s embraced her nomad ways and traveled with her to over 30 countries across 5 continents (I’m coming for you next, Antarctica!). She’s also been cursed with an impatient (although admittedly adorable) terrier who pouts when her dinner is 5 minutes late.

She writes about strong, stubborn, flawed women and the men who can’t help but love them. Her irreverent books aim to be silly and fun with the occasional storm cloud to remind us to appreciate the sunny days. As a hopeless romantic, her favorite stories are the ones that remind us all that while love is rarely perfect, it’s always worth chasing.

There’s more to me than just being awk-weird. I own my own flower shop, have some great friends, and I have my eye on adopting the most adorable kitten. But sadly, hot guys don’t tend to be blown away by my trivia-spouting, dorky self.

Heaven

I was fourteen the first time I laid eyes on the smoking hot, silver-eyed, goalie. Damon Wolfe was the most gorgeous boy I’d ever seen. All it took was one glance, one sentence and my heart was his. But I was too young and he was too broken.

Seven years later, he’s the biggest off the ice player in the NHL and I’m his virginal best friend.

Of course, I have the perfect solution to that particular problem, but Damon keeps on refusing to be the one to vanquish my chastity. He claims he doesn’t want to ruin our friendship, that he’s not good enough for me. Yet, somehow his eyes say something different whenever he looks at me.

Just one night, that’s all I’m asking.

What’s the worst that can happen?

Wolfe

I was mesmerized by Heaven Andersen the first time I looked into her sparkling turquoise eyes. She was a teenage kid with a mouth full of braces and bruised knees, but she was the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen—like a fairy-tale princess. With one look, she sent all my inner demons running. But she was just a kid and I was too damaged.

Seven years later, she’s my best friend. My best friend with a single-minded mission—to get laid.

She wants me to take her virginity and teach her about sex. But she’s an off-limits, flawless diamond girl, and so far out of the realm of anything my blackened heart is looking for or deserves it’s laughable.

So, how come I’m not laughing? How come my best friend is the first thing I think about in the morning and last thing I think about at night? More importantly, what am I going to do to protect her—from me?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 3.5 Stars

Cross Crease had a lot of potential… but it ultimately fell flat for me. I didn’t like the jumping around in timelines; it didn’t flow seamlessly from last to present. I hated that Haven just sat around waiting for D while he slept his way through half the hockey fans in the world. And his complete turnaround when it came to his feelings for her came out of nowhere. I felt like a chapter was missing from his POV there. And even once they got together, there was an incident that I think they both could have handled better.

If you like a lot of sex, once D gives in and takes Haven’s V-card, there is lots of it. Unfortunately for me, I felt there was little else holding these two together.

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Author Bio:

As a lover of the northeast US, my husband and I moved to the Poconos several years ago to open a Chiropractic Clinic. Four children and a menagerie of animals later, I have finally found time to fulfill my lifelong dream of writing novels. A dreamer at heart, romance is—of course—the genre I spend most of my time writing and reading into the wee hours of the morning. However, if it’s a good book, any genre can keep me immersed in the story for hours.

When I’m not juggling work responsibilities and writing, I enjoy baking, knitting, traveling, hiking the beautiful hills and woods around my home and spending time with my family.

** This will be a full length novel

A single Dad. A personal ad. What could possibly go wrong?

When Seattle journalist, Amanda McKendrick, pitches a new story about the increase of bear attacks in Sitka, her newspaper sends her north for two weeks. While there, she answers the personal ad of single dad, Luke Kingston, looking for a little no-strings-attached fun to pass the time.

But the sweet, widowered father of three—who just happens to be a smokin’ hot state trooper—turns out to be a lot more than Amanda bargained for. As the days go by, she wonders if it’ll be possible to return to Seattle without leaving her heart behind.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Single In Sitka is a great start to a new series featuring hunky Alaskan men! This debut book in the series is about widower Luke and the big-city reporter who captures his heart.

Luke has no clue that his sister placed an ad in Odds Are Good magazine, which targets women in the lower states looking for an Alaskan mountain man. Luke’s ad captures the eye of Seattle journalist Amanda, and before she knows it, some made-up story about bear attacks in Stika, Alaska, has Amanda headed up north to cover the story. And why she’s at it, why not meet up with the single dad/police officer? Their first meeting, however, is anything but romantic, so it’s quite funny when they go on their blind date and find each other at the restaurant.

Their relationship starts out as no-strings-attached while she’s in town on assignment, but they both feel a connection that is too hard to deny. While KR does a nice job of working in the way his kids feel about dad dating again, miscommunication/avoidance on the part of Amanda and Luke could have saved them both some heartache in the beginning when she first went back to Seattle. But that did prompt a lot of soul-searching on both their parts as to how they could stay together and highlight their different lifestyles and the concessions that they’d both have to make in order share their lives together.

I would have loved to have read the conversation when Amanda tells Luke that the story about the bears was kind of made up after she saw his single ad. The whole situation about the bear attacks that led Amanda up to Alaska in the first place was seemingly dropped, and I wished that there was more of an explanation there.

Overall, Single In Sitka was an enjoyable read, well-written, with good chemistry between the main characters, three adorable children and a HEA that will put a smile on your face. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

VIRAL by T. Gephart

Available Now!

Synopsis:

White Trash Circus will be taking an extended break and won’t be playing any time in the foreseeable future. Please lodge all your complaints to my guitarist—and my ex best friend—who I found inside the girlfriend I’ve had since high school. I will pull the freaking knife from my back and continue—without either of them—when the time is right. With enough hate and anger coursing through my veins to keep me in therapy for life, I’m going to save my cash and let the music heal me. Prepare all your bleeding hearts to be tormented with the most righteous, heavy and cataclysmic tunes to ever come out of me. So there’s that to look forward to. Thank you for all the support over the years, the gigs, the love and most of all memories. Don’t trust anyone and stay metal—Vaughan.

PS. Connor, you left your guitar and rig at my house so I took the liberty of relocating it to my front lawn. I might have dropped it on the way out the door. In your own words, brother, “Sometimes stuff just happens.”

PPS. Our drummer spontaneously combusted and is no longer with us.

WhiteTrashMegaFan- Whoa! Is this real?

VaughanLover4Eva – I love you Vaughan, you were too good for her anyway. I want to have your babies.

HeavyBrad69– So rock and roll!! Can’t wait for the new stuff, it’s going to be metal AF!

Nico – Ummm, Vaughan, what about me?

LicksNStick – LOL awks

White Trash Circus – No one cares about the bass player, Nico.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

He’s a fallen rockstar. She may be his salvation.

The worst day of Vaughan’s life ends up changing his life around when a social media post about his bandmate sleeping with his girlfriend goes viral. It catches the eye of music exec Gillian, who convinces her dad (one of the most powerful music execs) to take a chance on Vaughan. When THAT opportunity goes even worse, Gillian takes matters into her own hands and recreates Vaughan into something the music world never saw coming.

As they go about trying to relaunch his career, while sharing his small Pittsburgh apartment, Gillian and Vaughan can’t deny the sexual chemistry between them. And it’s explosive! At first they just use each other for some release, but it’s not long before messy feelings get involved. But she’s got something to prove to the world and her father — that she’s just as good as any other agent — and will the world think Vaughan’s comeback was all the result of sleeping his way to a new record deal?

It’s an interesting dynamic between them, as they juggle their professional and personal relationships. Gillian is so buttoned up and icy all the time, but Vaughan manages to get her to relax, have fun… and even fall in love. But is it enough?

Well, the book ends on a nice HEA, so yeah, it’s enough! I really hope that Viral was the start of a new series, because I need Nico/Emily to have a story of their own, and I’m really interested to see what kind of girl make the Christian twins fall to their knees!

AUTHOR INFORMATION:

T Gephart is a USA Today and International bestselling author from Melbourne, Australia.

With an approach to life that is somewhat unconventional, she prefers to fly by the seat of her pants rather than adhere to some rigid roadmap. Her lack of “plan” has resulted in a rather interesting and eclectic resume, which reads more like the fiction she writes than an actual employment history. She’d tell you all about it, but the statute of limitations hasn’t expired yet. But all those crazy twists and turns have led her to a career she loves—writing romantic comedy.

When she isn’t filling pages with sassy and sexy characters with attitude, she’s living her own reality show in the ‘burbs of Melbourne with her American husband, two teenage children, and her fur child—Woodley.

She loves adventure, to laugh, travel, and strives to live her life to the fullest.

Dark King (Advantage Play – Book 2)

Release Date: October 7, 2019

Cover Design: Sly Fox

Synopsis

Goodreads

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Dark King picks up right where Wild Card left off. We get more of the story from King’s point of view, but there are still alot of unanswered questions about his background and relationship with Ace.

Again, Kelsie Rae delivers a great book that is wildly different — darker, more intense — than her light and saccharine Signature Sweethearts series. But there is more to come from this series, and I don’t know that I am invested enough to find out what happens next in the subsequent books. Dark romances just aren’t my jam. KR has put together a great story with lots of twists and turns, but I think I’ll just wait for the next Sweetheart.

About the Author

Kelsie is a sucker for a love story with all the feels and enjoys a solid chick flick, too. When she’s not chasing words for her next book, you will probably find her reading or, more likely, playing with her three small children who love to drive her crazy. She adores chocolate, photography, and baking. And now that she’s actively pursuing her writing dreams, she’s set her sights on someday finding the self-discipline to not eat an entire batch of cookies in one sitting.
