RELEASE DAY! ~ Taming the Alien Prince by Rie Warren

Title: Taming the Alien Prince
Series: Intergalactic Lurve Book 2
Author: Rie Warren
Genre: Sci-Fi Alien Royalty Romance
Release Date: March 26, 2018 

 

Area 51 . . . the new hook-up spot for aliens and humans. Who knew?

One might describe Zaneeviex as cocky, with good reason. He’s been doubly blessed, and his extra endowments haven’t gone to waste on his own planet. But the Zenithian Prince is ready to mate for life. Where does he locate his perfect breeder? Area 51, natch. 

Astrid’s no stranger to Believers—crazy folk who dedicate their lives to making contact. As a NASA astrobiologist, she’s studied the possibility of extraterrestrial life forms, though really, she just wants to make contact with a man who melts her panties right off. 

Imagine her surprise when she discovers A. Aliens are real, and B. Zane, a Zenithian Prince, doesn’t just melt her panties, he absolutely incinerates her body into a pile of do-me-goo. 

Two dicks—and two hearts—really are better than one. Until the ongoing peril facing humans on Zenithia threatens to tear Zane and Astrid apart.
“You were jealous, Prairie.” X’s voice rumbled deliciously from the widest chest I’d ever seen. 

“What?” I huffed. “Not.”

Smug sexy alien stud. 

A grin tipped up one corner of his mouth. 

Without another word, he began to undress, and I was once again treated to the insane sight of his incredibly muscled body. He stopped with the lacings of his pants coming undone, revealing the root of his impressively thick cock. 

He ducked his head, licking across my lips before delving inside. I trembled with awareness of him, my hands roaming to the ropey sinews of his shoulders. Before I even knew it, he’d completely disrobed me, leaving me in only the humungo necklace and nipples so tight I thought I’d come if he so much as touched them. 

He set my hands on the lacings of his leathers, watching with a hungry smile as my fingers pulled them open one by one. 

My heart pounded harder. My pussy got wetter and wetter. The peaks of my breasts rubbed against the heated glossy skin of his chest. 

Tugging the pants down, down, down, my breath caught in my throat at the feast of flesh presented in front of me. 

Our skin still gleamed from the earlier oil treatment, and I stood quivering in front of him. 

“Now we fuck.” His voice came out like sexual thunder, sending a bolt of dirty desire zinging desperately through me. 

My belly clenched, but when he picked me up and tossed me onto the bed, I held up my hands. 

“Holy horse cock, alien boy!” I stared at the lewd length kicking up from his groin, veins pulsing all over, the big domed head pushing out one drop of liquid after another. “Seriously though, is that thing really for real? Or is it just another hologram?”

“You touched my cock earlier. Did it feel real?” He wrapped a massive fist around the base jutting from his body and stroked all the long way up to the tip. 

Involuntarily, my thighs spread, and I felt myself dripping all over the bedding. 

His eyes—gleaming nearly fluorescent green—latched onto the sight of my pussy, and his lips curled off his teeth, nostrils flaring. 

I writhed at the primal sight of him as he crawled up between my legs, pushing them wider and wider apart with his sheer size. 

As soon as his cockhead touched my labia, sizzling heat rippled through my body, but my hands rose again to push at his chest. 

“Uh unh. On second thought you can’t fuck me with that thing. No way will it fit.”

“Then tonight I will stretch you.”

Growing up as MC royalty, my path was set, but it was never my destiny. Liberated by my father’s death, I left the Heaven’s Rejects Clubhouse to make my own way in life. But fate had other ideas. My brother’s club was the only option, once a target had been painted on my back, because of one of my patients. I never expected that going home would result in my entire world being flipped upside down, at the hands of the man meant to protect me. With him as a bodyguard, my heart never stood a chance. Could I sacrifice my soul to go back to the life I left behind?

Now that she’s here, needing protection from the club, I have a choice to make. She wants nothing to do with the MC life, much less have a relationship with anyone associated with it. But I’m determined to show her how much she means to me. Am I really willing to give up my brothers and the club all for her? 

The game is just now beginning, but in reality I might only have one life left.

Greed and power are the least of his worries now. Death is knocking on his front door, wanting to collect.
The woman he’s given his heart to just might become his collateral this time around. Past sins may trump everything…

 

You went home alone again last night, Boss?” Kemp leans back on the truck, crossing his arms with his dark aviators covering his steely eyes.

 

I drain the rest of my black coffee and toss the cup on the ground. I match his stance, leaning back on my Ford truck. “Last time I checked, you ain’t my fucking babysitter.”

 


 

We both continue to stare ahead while holding a conversation. “You gotta get over her. We are worried about you.”

 


 

“Again, don’t need no damn babysitters. I am over her.” It’s a lie, point blank. I miss Whitley, and it’s only been a handful of days. She was my companion, and I realize more than ever all this sorrow is over the fact I don’t like being lonely.

 


 

“Yeah, keep telling yourself that, Boss.”

 


 

All of my employees know damn well how Whitley was my world. I protected her, and she flourished. Hell, they’d been under strict instructions for years not to let one hair on her pretty little head get touched.

 

“It ain’t like that, and you damn well know it. I just miss her. Worry about her.”

 

He stands up and pats my shoulder. “You’re doing the right thing. You gave her the world, and now it’s time for her to make it her bitch. A little lady will come along for your ugly ass.”

 


 

I smirk and flip him the bird. Bastard knows I’ve always been the better-looking one and hasn’t been able to live that shit down. I notice a cloud of dust rolling down the road; it’s about show time.

 


 

“You gonna tell me what you found on this slimy bastard?” I pull down my aviators and watch as our company nears.

 


 

“Nope. Can’t wait to see the shock on your face.”

 


 

“Bastard.”

 


 

We stand side-by-side, arms crossed over our pristine white button-up dress shirts and sleek black suit coats. Dressing the part is always high on my priority list. Gotta dress the part every single day to be taken seriously. A lesson I learned from Preston.

 


 

“I am trusting you, man.”

 


 

Kemp snorts and throws his head back in laughter. “J.J., you could ask for anything after I drop this little bit of news.”

 


 

I turn my head and raise an eyebrow. “Anything?”

 


 

He nods. “We could have his nuts on a silver platter if you’re into that kind of thing.”

 


 

We face back to the road, the dust cloud getting closer and closer as the seconds tick. Kemp has always been my best friend and right-hand man. I trust him with anything in my life, and I’ve never seen him with a shit-eating grin like he’s sporting now.

 


 

Kemp is the techie of our operations, the king dweeb when it comes to technology and codes. Better than any private investigator I could hire. I’m the front guy keeping everything running like a well-oiled machine. Together we’ve proven we are an unstoppable duo.

 


 

Kemp knows Jordan has been on my radar for a long fucking time now. Once you land a spot on my radar, the next plan of action is to take everything you have and destroy you.

 


 

The parade of trucks roars past us, each of them without a second glance, until the last one. A massive silver GMC truck screeches to a halt, and none other than Jordan Vincentino leaps out. He slams the door behind him like he’s some goddamn king or something. He’s scared. I can sense it. This bastard may be smarter than I give him credit.

 


 

I don’t flinch or even acknowledge him. I remain standing with my hands crossed over my chest with my no-shit attitude printed clear for anybody to see.

 


 

“Two days in a row. What’s the honor, York?”

 


 

Jordan kicks up dirt with his expensive alligator skin boots as he nears me. I shrug. I’ll let Kemp do the talking until I know where we stand on this whole situation. Kemp uncrosses his arms and takes a step toward Vincentino.

 


 

I have to give it to the guy because he doesn’t flinch or back down. Kemp is one of the biggest sons of bitches I know. Played all four years of college football on the defensive line for Alabama and is still in the same shape. He could walk on any NFL field and kick ass in his current condition. I have him in the looks department, but he’d destroy me when it came to a fist-to-fist battle.

 

 

HJ Bellus is a small-town girl who loves the art of storytelling. When not making readers laugh or cry, she’s a part-time livestock wrangler that can be found in the middle of Idaho, shot gunning a beer while listening to some Miranda Lambert on her Beats and rocking out in her boots.

Title: Even If It Breaks Me
Author: Dominique Laura
Genre: YA/Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 2018
Cover Credit: Liv Moore with Liv’s Shoppe

 


At fourteen years old, I loved him.

Hard.

So hard it hurt.

I loved him, but love isn’t what it was.

It was a game, a lie. And I would never be the same.

I fell in love with a liar, and when the truth was uncovered, he left my heart shattered and never looked back.

So I didn’t either. I moved on, went to college, and I lived my life without him, pushing thoughts of him away whenever they tried to break through the bubble I had created for myself.

I was twenty-four when he came back into my life, a month before I was set to marry someone else, someone who had pieced together the broken parts he had left behind.

I shouldn’t have agreed to meet with him, but I did. I had to.

My heart broke all over again.

My head and heart were officially at war.

I had a choice to make, and it should have been easy, but it wasn’t. Because whatever choice I made, head or heart, I knew it would break me.

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.

Series: Savannah PD Series Book 3
Author: Rachel Renee
Genre: Mystery/Thriller
Release Date: March 23, 2018
Even the best of us carry ill will in our hearts—malice, animosity, bad blood, revenge. Even the best of us can be pushed to the brink.

Detective Eliza Sheppard doesn’t typically have a problem moving on from a case. Except for one, which lingers in the back of her mind like a looming shadow cast over everything she does. 

When an assignment turns rogue, discoveries are made and it turns out…Eliza and her team are not the only ones on the case. 

In a race against time, Eliza’s need to shed light on the injustices of the past does not cease in her pursuit for answers. Detective Sheppard’s history of being on the straight and narrow is put to the test. The line between good and evil is muddied, leaving her to decide if she truly knows right from wrong—if she’s truly the detective she claims to be.

Rachel Renee, born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, finds herself residing with her family in the suburbs. After completing a degree in psychology and racking up thousands of dollars in debt, she decided to become a stay at home mom and homeschool her children, all the while working on her writing career. While she is not using her degree in the secular world she uses it on a daily basis, psychoanalyzing her husband of almost 15 years and two children (10 & 8), her two dogs, three cats and her life as a writer and teacher. While Rachel enjoys reading books from many different genres, she also enjoys writing different genres as well. Her first release is a contemporary romance and her second two are in the murder mystery/crime series genre entitled Instincts and Human Nature. The third in the series is coming out later in March!

Stay tuned as Rachel continues her journey!

HAPPY RELEASE DAY! ~ Cut Short by Julia Wolf (Trailer & Giveaway INSIDE!)

Title: Cut Short
Author: Julia Wolf
Genre: Romantic Comedy

Release Date: March 22, 2018 

 


 

Of all the towns and salons he could have walked into, he had to walk into hers…

Rachel Sachs finally has her life together— almost. She owns a salon in the town she’s always loved, dances the Running Man like nobody’s business, has regular wine nights with her girls, and does really good hair.

After a trail of failed Tinder hook-ups, she’s finally ready for something real…

Until she sees Joe Silver— the object of her high school obsession and the breaker of her young heart. That might be a little too real.

Fourteen years ago, Rachel ghosted when Joe made it clear she’d never have him. But now? He’s not letting her get away. And soon they’re right back to where they started, only instead of the all night instant messaging they did in high school, they’re blowing up each other’s phones with texts.

Rachel wants nothing more than to savor the slow, delicious burn of falling for Joe Silver again, but can she trust that what they’re building is the real she’s looking for? Or will history repeat itself and leave her with another broken heart?

Joe and Rachel were kind of exhausting. Their story itself was cute, but they all seemed like they were very immature, in their early twenties rather than actual adults.

My biggest problem with the story was that, at times, there was an insane amount of detail for random things. It just felt out of place and I would go back to make sure I hadn’t skipped a page or two. I liked the story, but I just wanted it to be so much more.
