**JET** Cover Reveal and Synopsis

E-book Release Date: May 28th

With his tight leather pants and a sharp edge that makes him dangerous, Jet Keller is every girl’s rock and roll fantasy. But Ayden Cross is done walking on the wild side with bad boys. She doesn’t want to give in to the heat she sees in Jet’s dark, haunted eyes. She’s afraid of getting burned from the sparks of their spontaneous combustion, even as his touch sets her on fire.

Jet can’t resist the Southern Belle with mile-long legs in cowboy boots who defies his every expectation. Yet the closer he feels to Ayden, the less he seems to know her. While he’s tempted to get under her skin and undo her in every way, he knows firsthand what happens to two people with very different ideas about relationships.

Will the blaze burn into an enduring love. . . or will it consume their dreams and turn them to ashes?

About the Author

I'm an natural redhead even though I haven't seen my real hair color in years. I'm a big fan of tattoos and have a half sleeve on either arm and various other pieces all over the place. I've been in the bar industry since I was in college and it has always offered interesting insight into how men and women interact with each other. I have 3 dogs that are all crazy. I live in Colorado and love the snow. I love music and in all reality wish I could be a rock star, not a writer or a bartender, but I have zero talent so there is that. I love to write, love to read, and all I'm interested in is a good story with interesting characters that make the reader feel something.

AROUSE Review and Dean's Top 10 Favorite Books

~*ENTER GIVEAWAY BELOW*~

"One day I'm going to touch you in a thousand different ways and show you how to touch me," he said.

And he did.

Struggling with a tormented past, undergraduate Olivia Winter once led a practical but isolated life. Then she met Professor Dean West, a brilliant scholar of medieval history who melted Liv's inhibitions and taught her the meaning of both love and erotic pleasure. But after three years of a blissful, lusty marriage, Liv and Dean now face a crisis that threatens everything they believe about each other...and sex might not be enough to save them.

Book Rating

Jodie Rae's Review

“I don’t want you to walk away,” I said.

“Good.” The lines between his eyes eased with relief.

I gripped his wrists, a knot of fear binding my throat. “But you… you might want to go,” I warned.

Darkness flashed in his expression. “Why?”

My eyes stung. I swallowed hard.

“Here be monsters,” I whispered.

A heartbeat of silence, brewing with danger, filled the space between us. Then Dean tightened his hold on me and, with his thumbs, brushed away the tears that spilled down my cheeks.

“Liv,” he said, his voice rough with tenderness, “you don’t have to be afraid.”

“Why not?”

“Because I’ll slay monsters for you.”

“Maybe this was meant to happen, this discovery of cracks where now a different, new light can shine through.” 

My favorite part about Arouse was that it was about marriage. Story lines usually build from the “first meeting” to marriage. I enjoyed the change of pace with Olivia and Dean already being married and established at the beginning of the story. The theme of this story should be “love conquers all.” Like all marriages, Olivia and Dean go through rough patches but their feelings and affection for one another always wins out in the end. Simply put, I love Dean. He is the ultimate husband, so strong. The character strength doesn’t stop with Dean; Olivia is enjoyable to read about because she holds her own in this story and doesn’t play the weakness trait. I’m looking forward to the second book, because I’m hoping we get a little more of a glimpse into their past.

**LET LOVE IN** Cover Reveal and Teaser

~Review Coming Soon~

Release date: May 10, 2013

Synopsis:

What would happen if you lost everything?  If the people who were supposed to love you unconditionally were no longer there for you, how would your world change? 

That’s exactly what happened to Madeleine Becker when her parents died when she was ten years old.  Ripped from her home and everything that she has ever loved, she is forced to start all over again.  The only way for her to move on is to build walls around her heart and keep everyone at a safe distance. Her logic: she can't get hurt if she doesn't fall in love.

That theory is blown to pieces when she meets Reid Connely during her freshman year at college. He is gorgeous and darkly mysterious. He understands Maddy's pain all too well, but sharing his pain would mean breaking down the walls he put up around his own heart. Conflicted between loving Maddy and hiding his dark past, Reid starts to reevaluate his world.  Maddy's inner strength, snarky personality and breath taking beauty help Reid to make peace with his past.

Together they find out what happens when they let love in.

Teaser:

There was a group playing quarters on the island and another group lining up shots on the breakfast bar – so not my scene.  I just shrugged my shoulders, opened the door, pulled out a bottle of water and, when I turned around to walk back outside, I face-planted into a wall of solid muscle. 

“Hand me one?” His voice was smooth and... gruff at the same time.  Red-faced, I turned back around and got him his water, glad for the cool respite that the opened refrigerator door offered. 

“Here you go.” I could not peel my eyes away from his mouth as he moved the bottle to his lips.  They were perfect - beautiful and full in a completely masculine way.  I watched, completely fascinated, as his throat moved, downing the water in three or four large gulps. He wiped his mouth with his forearm and I couldn’t help but let my eyes travel up the rest of his arm to his biceps and shoulders – those were the same as his lips – perfect.  Amazingly, gorgeously, utterly, divinely perfect.  Muscled and tanned, his arms were mouthwatering.

My knees wobbled.  My heart thudded.  Thousands of butterflies spread their wings in my belly. 

“Thanks…” he stared blankly at my face for a minute and I couldn't help but wondering if he liked what he saw.  He cleared his throat and roused me from my little daydream where the gorgeous boy is mesmerized by the maybe-a-little-above-average looking girl.  That’s when I realized he was asking for my name.

“Maddy.  Sorry, my name’s Maddy." I nearly choked on my tongue to get my freaking name out.

About the Author:

I’ve always been an avid reader. Majoring in English Literature was a no brainer. Becoming a teacher and instilling my love for reading into my students was also a no brainer. I’ve spent the last ten years teaching and I’ve loved (mostly) every minute of it. When I was home on maternity leave for my third son, I discovered a new genre that sparked my creativity. My passion for writing sprang from my love of reading and once I knew I had a story to tell, I couldn’t wait to get it out there. I only hope that my readers enjoy reading my story as much as I enjoyed writing it.  Links:

Lauren Blakely's **TROPHY HUSBAND** Excerpt

 

"I close my eyes, and picture a kiss that starts sweet and soft and slow. Then, his hands cup my face as if he’s claiming me, saying you’re mine with his lips and his hands and the way he draws me in close, his thumb tracing a line along my jaw. It’s such a small gesture, but such a poetically possessive one and I arch my back, inviting more. In one swift move, he pulls my chair to him, sliding me between the V of his legs. His fingers thread their way into my hair, and I lean into his hands, reveling in the way they feel against the back of my head, as if he’s holding me in the exact way he wants me, in the exact way I want to be held."

 

Release Date: May 21, 2013

 

About the Author:

Falling Into You Review

NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY Bestselling book.

Book Description:

I wasn't always in love with Colton Calloway; I was in love with his younger brother, Kyle, first. Kyle was my first one true love, my first in every way. Then, one stormy August night, he died, and the person I was died with him.

Colton didn't teach me how to live. He didn't heal the pain. He didn't make it okay. He taught me how to hurt, how to not be okay, and, eventually, how to let go.

Nell Hawthorne is in love with her life-long best friend, Kyle Calloway. Their young love is invincible and life is full of promise; then one night Kyle dies suddenly in a tragic accident and Nell is forever changed. She meets Kyle's older brother Colton for the first time at the funeral. They both struggle to move on with life as best they can. Years later, they meet again in New York City, and Colton realizes that Nell has never really gotten over Kyle's death. She seems to be harboring a deeply rooted pain, a heavy weight of guilt and regret. He knows he shouldn't get involved, but he can't help himself. Trust doesn't come easily for either of them, and they both have demons. Together, they learn the purpose of pain and the meaning of healing, and the importance of forgiveness.

My Review:

"But we have to learn to be free. We have to, Nell. Doesn't mean happy all the time, or okay all the time. It's okay not to be okay. I told you that, but I'm relearning it myself. But not being okay doesn't mean you stop living." - Colton

I rated Falling Into You with Four & One Half Leaves, because it is simply, heartwrenchingly beautiful. While reading this story about the art of learning to live and love after losing the love of your life, I fell in love with Kyle. Then, I fell into Colton. Jasinda Wilder proves her talent for writing true human emotion with Kyle, Colton, and Nell's tale. Usually when a lead character in a book dies, you are so surprised by the twist of events, your emotions are toyed with and you're left with a pile of soaked tissues. Falling Into You is all together different. For starters, you know Kyle dies from the first page. As the reader you think since you are prepared for the imminent death, you will be able to hold yourself together. Although Kyle's death is a surprise and the scene itself would make anyone want to call in to work sick after reading it, it is Nell's emotional transition after his death and her battle with self-injury that will have you closing the book just to take a breather. But don't close it too long, because there are three, crazy, steamy, hot sex scenes between Colton and Nell that are well worth the read.

About the Author:

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jasinda Wilder is a Michigan native with a penchant for titillating tales about sexy men and strong women. When she’s not writing, she’s probably shopping, baking, or reading. Some of her favorite authors include Nora Roberts, JR Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Liliana Hart and Bella Andre. She loves to travel and some of her favorite vacations spots are Las Vegas, New York City and Toledo, Ohio. You can often find Jasinda drinking sweet red wine with frozen berries and eating a cupcake.

Surrender Your Love Review

 

WARNING: SPOILERS INCLUDED BELOW

Jett Mayfield. Millionaire.  

"...the way the guy walked—full of confidence and cockiness—"

"...a deep, sexy rumble of a voice that had just a hint of a Southern accent."

"...judging from his wicked grin, definitely not the kind of man you bring home to meet your parents."

"His wet, dark hair was a tad too long and disheveled..."

"His coat...did nothing to hide his broad shoulders and muscular build..."

"...his electric eyes shimmered like emeralds."

Brooke Stewart, real estate agent, was scheduled to meet Mr. Mayfield, owner of Mayfield Realties, for drinks to discuss a partnership with her much smaller firm. She got the handsome Mr. Townsend instead. With a no-show from Mayfield and an inappropriate exchange from Townsend, Brooke leaves the meeting flustered and ready for a glass of wine. When Brooke wakes up the next morning, Townsend is naked in the bed beside her. She found him at the same club her and her best friend/roommate, Sylvie, attended the night before. When she arrives at work the next morning, her boss informs her she has been let go in order to report for work at Mayfield Realties. You have an idea where this is going, don't you?  

Upon arrival at Mayfield Realties, she is greeted by the front desk attendant with an envelope. She was to fly to Italy immediately to meet Mayfield to work on an important estate project. Add a dump session from her boyfriend, another night out with Sylvie, and a second "closed door" go around with Townsend, and we have arrived to a plot twist. Townsend=Mayfield! Same guy?! Yes, we knew that was coming, but still Jett is too hot to put down.   

The sexual attraction between the two characters jumps off the page, especially during the closet scene ;-) When it doesn't, Jett's confident remarks remind you. "The moment I met you, I knew you wanted me as much as I wanted you. Don't even pretend it's not true."

Mayfield proposes a type of deal us erotica fans have come to love. Together, they sign a Consensual Sexual Acts and Confidentiality Agreement. Let the naughty, interoffice sex begin! Amidst all of the oh-so-deliciousness that is Jett Mayfield and his wicked bedroom ways, the reader learns more about the important estate project Brooke was sent to Italy to work on. The Lucazzone Estate. The reader learns about the history of the estate and why Mayfield says he wants the property, but there seems to be missing elements to his story.

Jett and Brooke's relationship progressively grows as the story plays out. They tell stories of their pasts and slowly pull the walls down. Brooke, more so than Jett. Eventually, the two decide to ignore the no-strings contract and start a relationship. When Brooke returns home, she finds a letter and receives a call from Jake Clarkson, a lawyer who needs to meet with her to discuss an urgent matter. At their meeting, Brooke discovers she is the heir to the Lucazzone Estate.

Brooke confronts Jett about the set up and lies she believed him to be apart of. He didn't deny it, but he proclaimed his love for her and mentioned protecting her. She leaves his office heartbroken and planning to keep him from obtaining the Lucazzone Estate. End of book one.

Brook and Jett's story continues in Conquer Your Love.

Releases June 1st!

I highly recommend Surrender Your Love to all of my FALLowers! When describing a character, a setting, or a situation, J.C. Reed pulls her readers in to her written word twister with a whirl wind of emotion and sensuality. I've read tons of stories filled with some of the most blush-inducing sex scenes known to the erotica community, but there was just something about that kiss in the closet. A simple kiss, and I fell in lust with Mr. Mayfield. A heart-wrenching fight on the last page. The tear of Brooke's broken heart. It was then I knew I was in love with Jett.
