Title: The Last Resort Motel: Room 13
Series: The Last Resort Motel #4
Author: D. Kelly
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 12, 2018

Never in a million years did Sage Garcia think she would be spending her three-day weekend at The Last Resort Motel with the man she swore off years ago. If she hadn’t agreed to do a favor for her best friend Baxter, she would be enjoying her time off instead of being stuck up on a mountain with him. 

After tricking Baxter into picking him up, Gabriel Ross is looking forward to a guys’ weekend. Besides, he can use all the help he can get while he runs the motel restaurant for the weekend. When he opens the door and finds Sage on the other side, he’s anything but disappointed. Too bad he can’t say the same about her. Sage still holds a grudge from a hookup years ago, but Gabe isn’t the boy he was back in the day and is looking forward to proving it to her. 

With their chemistry burning hotter than ever, will Sage give in and let Gabe make amends? Or will she remain resentful while keeping her heart under lock and key?

Title: Harper and the One-Night Stand
Author: R. Linda
Genre: NA Romance

Release Date: April 10, 2018

 

 

A few too many cocktails in paradise, and I woke up in someone else’s bed. My ex-boyfriend’s cousin’s bed, to be exact.
Huge mistake.
Nate and I agreed it wouldn’t happen again. We didn’t want to hurt Brody. Only it did happen, repeatedly, until I finally found the courage to walk away.
But I couldn’t ignore the temptation, and I soon found myself back in his bed—or on his floor—stealing secret kisses and forbidden touches, sneaking around behind everyone’s backs.
I tried so hard to resist Nate’s charms, but my resolve crumbled. How could I not be swept off my feet by water towers in the rain and deep confessions on the beach?
The last thing we want is to hurt anyone, but it is out of our control. And there isn’t a thing I can do except give him my heart and hope he keeps it safe…regardless of the consequences.

 

 

R. Linda drinks wine and writes books.
A coffee addicted, tattoo enthusiastic fangirl with a slight obsession for a particular British boy band and solo artist, she is a writer of Contemporary YA/NA Romance and Suspense, sometimes dabbling in Paranormal as well.

BOOK TOUR! ~ Never After by Billie Dale

Leave a comment
Title: Never After: A Fairytale Inspired Romantic Comedy
Author: Billie Dale
Genre: Romantic Comedy/Fantasy Fairytale Novella

Release Date: April 6, 2018

When I walked down the aisle all those years ago, I thought I was about to begin a fairytale romance…
Boy, was I ever wrong.

Now my would-be Prince Charming is doing a stint behind bars, and my two kids and I are back in the one place I never wanted to see again – the home of my witchy, poisoned-apple-giving Wicked Stepmother.

A loveless home is no place to raise your kids and playing cleaning lady to the seven messiest brothers in history isn’t going to cut it.
Elsabeth Delle bursts into my life like a winter storm – with an idea that might get both of us damsels out of our distress.
It starts with a bed, a webcam, and whichever Internet strangers are willing to offer up their golden coins.
What could go wrong?
As it turns out, it’s not a what. It’s a who.

Royal Princeps.
He seems almost too good to be true – all radiant green eyes, perfect scruff and a body that’s just made for sin. He’s definitely the fairest of them all…. But I’ve got to figure out if this handsome hunk is my Knight in Shining Armor, or the Big Bad Wolf in sheep’s clothing; ready to eat me all up (and not in the good way.)
Or, as I’m starting to suspect, maybe he’s a bit of both…

Never After is a Snow White-inspired, curse-word infused bedtime story for adults only – exploring what happens when your fairytale “happy ending” is actually just the beginning…

 

The Red Hatter Book Blog – “Never After is one of the cutest, funniest, original fairytale retellings I’ve ever read!”

Witchy Richey’s Booktastic Reviews – “A frolicking fun trip to happily ever after. I love the characters, tons of laughs and just an all around entertaining read!”

Ani – “Billie Dale sucked me straight into her modern day story with a magical twist.”

 

He’s so close his face blurs, he slips one hand up along my cheek easing me toward him. I have enough time to wet my dry lips before his mouth fuses with mine. Oh my God, he’s kissing me. His beard scrapes my skin, and his tongue caresses my lips before I let him inside. The tart taste of green grapes and sweet Moscato wine explode across my taste buds while our mouths tango with each other. My heart pounds in my chest, blood rushing through my ears and speeding through my veins, pooling in my core.

My vagina does a cheer, give me a ‘D’, give me an ‘I’, give me a ‘C’….you know where she’s going with this, right?


Billie Dale lives in no-where middle earth. Lost in a small village in the Midwest with four kids, three animals and an amazing, word inspiring book boyfriend worthy husband.

A blogger by nature and a writer because she got tired of arguing with the voices in her head. She loves and lives the words on the page, whether writing them or reading them her life is consumed by the worlds her head creates.

Her greatest wish is that readers will fall in love with her words as much as she loves writing them and as much as she loves reading others. She loves to create new worlds to explore and loves to write words that will take root in you soul.

Paranormal, New Adult, Romantic Comedy, Contemporary — there is not one box she fits in. She’s a rebel in the author world who writes what her head tells her even it jumps from genre to genre.

Title: Surface
Series: Guarding Her #1
Author: Anna Brooks
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: April 11, 2018
Cover Designer: Leticia at RBA Designs


 

She was off limits. Too young. The boss’s daughter. Forbidden.

 


I knew it all along, but it didn’t change the absolute possession I felt when it came to her… nothing would change how I felt about her.

So I did what I had to; I waited until the time was right to make her mine, only to find out there is one thing that could ruin it all.

Anna began writing when she thought the world would want to hear her sick lyrics through song. Since then, she’s realized her childhood dream wasn’t so far-fetched, just misguided. Now she writes romance with real emotions and happy endings. If Anna isn’t writing or reading, she can be found by a space heater painting her nails and drinking a ridiculous amount of Diet Dr Pepper. She also likes to hang out with her husband and two boys. If it wasn’t for them, she wouldn’t ever leave the house. Anna was born in Wisconsin but now lives in the Evergreen State.

Title: Love & Madness
Author: Leah Parker
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 6, 2018
Cover Credit: Indie Solutions by Murphy Rae


Luna Terrone never wanted to settle down. A free-spirit by nature, she spent her time running from responsibility, going through a long list of men and cities in the process.

 


When she meets Tyler Hastings, she expects nothing but a fun night in yet another new city, but fate has other plans.

As they get to know each other, the pair discovers their flaws may be too much to manage. Falling in love and spiraling out of control simultaneously forces them to look at themselves, and at each other, in a way that they never thought they’d have to do.

Luna is faced with a future she can’t imagine.

Both wanting to help the other, they begin to digress little by little on their own.

Love is madness, and for Luna and Ty, madness rules.

 

“Leah Parker’s writing is raw and relatable. She isn’t simply trying to give you a HEA, she delivers stories that are real and honest.” ~ Amazon Review


“The writing is great, the story hooked me in from the beginning and I can’t wait to pick up the next one!” ~ Amazon Review

 

Leah resides in Massachusetts. She’s been an avid reader since fourth grade when she fell in love with the Dear America books and Harry Potter. When she’s not writing, she’s likely reading. Though she doesn’t much believe in fantasy, she does make an exception for all things Disney. Leah received a degree in psychology this past May, and she has absolutely no idea what she wants to do with it. She enjoys wine, Italian food, candles, coffee, and being outside. She hates cold weather, long pants, staying in one place for too long, and going to bed (though she does love sleeping.) Leah has always had a passion for writing, but it wasn’t until the Winter of 2015 that she finally got an idea in her head for her first novel, Clemency, which she wrote the following Summer. Love and Madness is Leah’s second novel. She is currently working on her third.
