How far would you go to make the man that destroyed your family pay?

Total Surrender, an all-new standalone in a brand new series of contemporary fairy tales with dirty, sexy twists from New York Times bestselling author Erika Wilde is coming June 25th, and we have the steamy cover!

TOTAL SURRENDER_EBOOK (1).jpg

Maddux Wilder is a man consumed, a beast in a three-piece suit. Rich and powerful, he built his empire with one thought in mind: revenge.

After years of patience and planning, the wait is finally over. Tonight, Maddux will finally watch Theodore Cole’s kingdom crumble. At a lavish ball in the New York City castle the Wilder siblings call home, the man that killed their parents will atone for his sins.

If only he’d planned for her.

Arabella Cole is Theodore’s only child; his cherished and sheltered daughter. She’s an innocent, captivating beauty that would do anything to save her loving father, including sacrificing herself.

With her freedom gone, she must surrender to a man she hates. A man that makes her want things she shouldn’t. A man that awakens deep, forbidden desires.

But everyone knows that roses don’t bloom in darkness.

Enter Maddux Wilder, a man that doesn’t believe in fairy tales.

Can the beauty tame the beast or will revenge cost them both everything that matters most?

Leave a Comment

KMN-BANNER1.jpg

What do you do when you’re the reigning kissing booth champion but the only person you want to kiss is your best friend’s brother?

Kiss Me Not, an all- new hilarious brother’s best friend standalone romance from New York Times bestselling author Emma Hart is coming August 27th and we have the fresh and fun cover!

KISSMENOT-FULL-ebook.jpg

Let me make this clear right here, right now: I, Halley Dawson, do not care that Preston Wright is kissing other women.

Not a lick. Not at all. Nuh-uh-freakin’-uh.

I do care that he’s doing it six feet away from me behind a gaudy velvet curtain—making him my competition in this year’s kissing contest.

Why do I care, you ask? Because I’ve had an unfortunate crush on the insufferable idiot since I was sixteen years old, but I also know it’s never going to happen.

He’s the Creek Falls bachelor to die for, and I’m the Creek Falls racoon lady who puts peanut butter sandwiches out for them every night.

I’m not going to let him break my four-year-long reign—no matter how many times he breaks the rules and slides the curtain across to do the one thing he’s not allowed to:

Kiss me.

BOOK FEATURE: “Salty Sebastian”

Leave a Comment

“Salty Sebastian” by Jen Luerssen

Blurb: Salty? I mean, it’s better than “f*cking” or “just” but I think it paints an inaccurate picture of my genial personality. I’m assuming that “sexy” or “sophisticated” were too pedestrian or already taken. Joe tells me that I can pretend it’s about how I taste. I ignore that affable deviant as much as possible. 

Generally, I’m a pretty easy going and friendly guy. 

My new intern, Kit calls me “Salty” and so I guess it’s a thing now. Joe says I tend to act like an ass around women I’m attracted to.

Am I attracted to Kit? Hell yes and in the past I’ve treated her very well. Several times in one night as a matter of fact. A night we didn’t exchange real names or numbers, it was Vegas, for fuck’s sake.

Maybe I’m a tiny bit salty that I find that the co-owner of my winery, Mikey, hired Kit as our new intern. I’m not the type of guy who sleeps with his interns.

If being stuck working with a woman I’ve been intimate with, who is amazing at her job, yet treats me like I gave her chlamydia pushes me a little in the salty category, then I guess that’s an apt description. Despite her clear displeasure with me now, Kit was once happy in my company. I’m just going to have to figure out if it’s worth making her happy again.

**About the author: Jen Luerssen grew up in New Jersey and then lived for 20 years in the San Francisco Bay area. She has held various jobs in her adult life. Some examples are nanny, waitress, receptionist, dispatcher, caterer, and finally teacher. She spent 10 years teaching 4th and 5th graders, until she finally felt the call to write. It’s been plaguing her thoughts and dreams for years, and those thoughts finally fought their way out.

Jen loves to read, obsessively. She has an unhealthy attachment to her Kindle and is rarely seen without it. She’ll read anything, but especially loves good smut or a post-apocalyptic young adult book.

After “retiring” from teaching, Jen sat down and wrote a book and then another and another and it was the most fun she’s ever had working. She is self-published even though she’s not sure how it works and hopes that people like her funny stories.

Jen is back in her native New Jersey and lives with her husband, daughter, and dog, enjoying suburban life.

Misfit Tattoo, Book 1 by Jennifer Labelle Publication Date: June 4, 2019 Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Preorder: Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon CA | Amazon AU

We’re both broken. Together we’re a disaster waiting to happen. I know what it’s like to bleed. To have so much pain you can barely breathe. My entire life got burned down in flames, and now I’m nothing. My escape? Friends, booze, and willing women. They make me feel numb. Better yet, they keep me distracted from the memories that plague me. When a curvy brunette walks into my tattoo shop I immediately recognize the sad look in her eyes. Pain. Regret. Grief. But I’m drawn to her, wanting to be near her all the time. Maybe it’s because we have something in common. A broken heart. Harlow has just about as many walls around her as I do. We’re both ruined, but despite being shattered into a million pieces, the more time we spend together the more she’s beginning to show me what hope looks like. It’s terrifying. If I keep on pursuing her, there are only two ways this could end. We’ll either help each other mend, or we’ll destroy the last bit of humanity we have left.

The Hook-Up Experiment by Emma Hart

1.Hate-screw my high school nemesis.

2.Remember to hate him.

3.Prove my brother wrong.

It should be easy.

It isn’t.

As the owner of Pick-A-D*ck, New Orleans’ premier hook-up website, my job is simple. Connect two people for a no-strings, no-expectations hook-up. The plus for my clients is that I’m the one who gets to sift through the d*ck pics—except this time, they’re required.

My problem? My brother, co-owner of Pick-A-D*ck’s sister dating site, doesn’t believe it’s possible to hook up with someone three times and not fall in love.

I disagree. I know it’s possible.

And my disagreement is exactly how I end up reconnected with my high school nemesis, Elliott Sloane. The guy who asked me to junior prom and then stood me up. Who egged my car when I rejected him, and convinced my senior homecoming date to ghost me.

It should be easy to hate-screw him. If only he was still that person, instead of a hot-as-hell single dad, working as a builder to make ends’ meet, fighting for custody of his daughter.

Three hook-ups.

One outcome.

Right?

Excerpt:

“Rex?” “Hmm?” He won’t look at me. His grip on the steering wheel so tight his knuckles are turning white. He swallows so hard I can hear the gulp from where I’m sitting next to him. When I lay a hand on his forearm he almost jumps out of his seat. “You okay?” “Fine,” he croaks. “You don’t sound fine.” I almost start giggling because if I’m reading the situation correctly, he’s nervous about having sex with me. Or, maybe, just what my intentions are. Rex, the sexy bartender that every single female in town lusts over and many have slept with — which I refuse to think about — is hesitating. I know he wants to. His body language, actions and words have told me as much. When he kisses me, it’s real. It sounds simple, because it is. I’ve kissed other men. He’s kissed other women. But it’s never been like this for me. And I know it’s never been like this for him, either. I know that might make me sound arrogant or overconfident, but I’m not clueless. Nor am I insecure. His feelings toward me are obvious, he’s not hiding it in any way, and unless he’s the most devious person in the world, I think he’s just as turned on by my presence as I am with his. Which is at holy shit levels, if I’m being honest. I’m in a dang near constant state of arousal around him. We pull into my driveway and he cuts the engine. His left leg is propped against the door and aside from the constant tapping of his thumb against the steering wheel, he’s the picture of relaxation. “Just gonna sit out here all night?” I ask, already sensing his hesitation to come inside. I can also see how badly he’s battling with himself right now. To sex her. Or not to sex her. I think we’re on the same page here, though. It’s just going to be fun messing with him a little bit. He’s made it very clear that his past relationships have either ended horribly, by way of his brother, the ass, or by the night being over with. He’s also hinted he would like to see where this thing between us is going to go. For that to happen, we need to not have sex. At least not yet. Even though every molecule in my body is currently firing and screaming at me to HAVE SEX WITH THIS SEXY AS FUCK GUY ALREADY. Okay, so maybe I’m not as secure in my decision as I thought but hey, I know he isn’t either. I open my door and step down. “Come on, you big baby. I don’t bite.” Then before I close the door I pop my head back through the opening, “Unless you want me to.” I slam the door and run up the few stairs to my front door, quickly unlock it, and rush inside. I count to five and he’s already charging in after me. “You think you’re so funny, don’t you? Teasing me like this?” “Whatever do you mean?” “I’m in your head, gorgeous. I know what you’re thinking.”

AUTHOR INTERVIEW: Alexa Riley

Leave a Comment

Author Interview with Alexa Riley

About the author: Alexa Riley is two sassy friends who got together and wrote some dirty books. They are both married moms of two who love football, donuts, and obsessed book heroes.

They specialize in insta-love, over-the-top, sweet, and cheesy love stories that don’t take all year to read. If you want something SAFE, short, and always with a happily ever after, then Alexa Riley is for you!

INTERVIEW

  1. Describe your writing style in five words: Easy, over the top, fluffy, sexy, and fun.
  2. Tell us about your writing/editing/publishing process: We write as much as we can during the week and take weekends off. Our editor has been with us from the beginning and we trust her to help us write our best stories. We’ve self published almost all of our books and luckily Amazon makes that process super easy.
  3. How did the two of you start and learn to collaborate? We started out as bloggers and when we couldn’t find the romances we wanted to read we decided to write our own.
  4. What do you love about the genre you write in? Romance is fun and the women who read it are so supportive and really celebrate that.
  5. Describe your perfect day: It sounds silly but we get to live that most of the time. We get to write the stories we love for people who love reading them. It’s a ton of work, but it’s something we both love more than anything.
  6. Do you have any writing superstitions? Usually when Lea thinks the heroine is too over-the-top the book is successful. Which is probably why our heroines are always over the top.
  7. Every author must have (a): One person who won’t judge what you write. It doesn’t have to be a friend or even someone you know that well. But a person in the romance community who can read your work and not judge you for your fantasy.
  8. What keeps you two motivated on a daily basis? Each other. It’s fun writing together but it also holds each of us accountable.
  9. Is social media more of help or hinder? It’s an amazing way to connect with readers and to talk about what we love. It can hinder a productive day if you’re not able to put the phone down, but otherwise how awesome it is that we get to meet so many people from across the globe we wouldn’t have been able to otherwise!?
  10. What is the best advice you can give those who want to collaborate with another author? Check your egos at the door. You can’t write well together if you think your words are better than your partners. It’s a collaboration and everyone has their own strength to bring to the table. Being able to recognize that is awesome, but you’ve got to be able to take the criticism and keep going.
  11. What do you want readers to take away from your books? That reading romance feels good and is an amazing form of self care. It’s easy to get sucked into fantasy and not pay attention to reality all around you, but loving romance and having those feelings of lust are wonderful and we hope people who read our books experience that.
  12. What are you working on right now? Out this Friday is Too Many that is the follow up to Too Hard. Then our podcast book comes out the 3rd of next month and we’ll be releasing a eBook with it Pretty Virgin. Currently we’re writing two books. Restored is about a guy who fixes the car that the heroine and her dad used to take to car shows before he died. It’s a steamy quick read with lots of emotion. And the other one is called Not Yet, and it’s a step-siblings high school romance that is so hot it’s going to light up the night!
