LYRIC (A Rebel Novel) By Molly McAdams

Lyric (Rebel, #1)Lyric by Molly McAdams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 Stars!

Lyric was everything I have come to love from Molly McAdams. It was sexy, suspenseful, and unputdownable. I loved Libby and Maxon's story! I have enjoyed Libby's character from the first moment I met her. I really like how she is a strong, sassy woman with a heart for her family. I adored Maxon. He was perfect! The ideal book boyfriend. I loved the way he loved Libby. How he cared for her, made her feel loved, and allowed her to be herself. From the very start, I was captivated by the storyline and read with nervous anticipation of how it would all come to end. Lyric is such a great read. It is suspenseful, but not dark. It's steamy, but not all about the intimate scenes. It's a little mafia and a little rock star. It's a story about true love, family, and fighting for what you want. I highly recommend!

***Release Blitz!*** LYRIC by Molly McAdams

Lyric

A stand-alone romance novel in the Rebel series – a Redemption series spin-off




New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Molly McAdams delivers the first captivating, stand-alone novel in her REDEMPTION series spin-off—the REBEL series . . . 

I’m not the kind of girl you forget.  
I wish I was.  
I wish I was normal.  
That I could blend into a crowd. Have a future with the man I’ve loved my entire life… 

Maxon James understands me in a way others can’t. 
For as long as I can remember, he’s vowed that one day he would claim my wild, rebel heart. God knows I wanted him to try. I wanted the life he promised me in his lyrics. 
But his assurances couldn’t change the past, and the infamous mafia blood in my veins guarantees my heart can’t be claimed. 

Somewhere along the way, I slipped. I let myself believe we could have it all. Now a dark, menacing shadow hovers between us, mocking us for daring to hope for a normal future.  

And it’s come to collect on a blood oath.  

My name’s Elizabeth Borello—Libby for short. Don’t worry about forgetting it… He hasn’t.

Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband, daughter, and fur babies. When she's not diving into the world of her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and long walks on the beach … which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. She has a weakness for crude-humored movies and fried pickles, and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm ... or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados. That way she can pretend they aren't really happening.

Finding Us by K.S. Marshall - Release Blitz

Title: Finding Us
Series: Lost & Found Duet #2
Author: K.S. Marshall
Genre: Romantic Suspense/Thriller
Release Date: April 27, 2018

This isn't a love story. This is a story about redemption. She was lost and then she was taken. He found her twice. But will she ever be truly free again? How can you ever be whole after your entire world was ripped apart? How will they both survive the nightmare when they realize it's not over? She loved him and he loved her. But it wasn't that simple.
TRIGGER WARNING:
Triggers (for both part 1 and part 2): Rape, Violence, Assault, Mental/Emotional Abuse, Death, PTSD triggers

K.S. Marshall is West Coast girl with a heart for Texas, who found herself calling Pittsburgh, PA her home. Having grown up with an avid romance reader for mother, the pull toward the genre was automatic. She enjoys writing complex stories with dark elements that keep her readers on the edge of their seats. Life and love are both complicated and messy and, true to reality, her characters are authentically flawed. 
When she's not reading or writing another plot twist, you can find her having impromptu dance parties, eating her weight in tacos, and doing fitness stuff with her friends. She's absolutely crazy over her children and her fur-babies, Luna and Weston. And that Sean guy is pretty cool too.

Losing Her by K.S Marshall- Review by Juls

Losing Her (Lost and Found #1)Losing Her by K.S. Marshall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars!!

Talk about intense! The whole story was good and let’s just say that the last part of it, came out of no where! I really didn’t see that coming. I was enjoying the usual love story scenario, then BAM! I felt like I was reading a different book with that twist! It was a good one too! I felt it gave the book so much more. It brought it up to the next level for me and held my attention even more. It had such a great outcome. After that intense and kind of creepy ending, I’m excited to jump right into Finding Us!

Finding Us by K.S. Marshall - Review by Juls

Finding Us (Lost and Found Part Two)Finding Us by K.S. Marshall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Intense Stars!!

I’m done! I now know the conclusion to Derrick and Alina’s story! Every bit of it was worth the wait! It starts off with just as much intensity that Losing Her ended with. Derrick once again graces us with his alpha attitude and Jason really keeps us on our toes. There are some things that Alina does that I wish she didn’t because it kind of changed my perception of her. I do understand why she did them, but it was still hard for me to agree with. There were moments I almost felt sorry for Jason. I think he would have turned out to be a good person if it weren’t for his past haunting him. I think if he didn’t lose his first love things may have been different for him. When we get flash backs of him and Faye, I almost started to like him. That’s what was good about Finding Us! One minute your falling for the bad boy, then the good boy turns bad, meanwhile your just trying to figure it all out along the way. I really had mixed emotions throughout the entire story when it came to Derrick, Jason and Alina. I believe I had a love/hate relationship with all three at some point. To me, that’s what makes a great story, because no matter what, you will always be on your toes waiting for the next scandal to be revealed! That is exactly what keeps us coming back for more!

***Blog Tour!*** CO-ED by Rachel Van Dyken

COED-SBPRBANNER-BT.jpg

Co-Ed by Rachel Van Dyken 
  Publication Date: April 24th, 2018 
  Genre: Contemporary Romance

rvd-coed_1

Four guys.
Constant moaning.
And a revolving door across the college suite I somehow ended up in because my first name is Shawn.
They don't discriminate. Girls. Guys. Grandmas. Plants (okay maybe not plants) all walks of life stroll in stressed to the brim, and leave so satisfied I'm wondering what sort of talents lie behind that door.
My roommate calls them the pleasure ponies.
But the rest of the college campus?
They just call them the new face of Wingmen Inc. A paid for relationship service that makes big promises.
Breakup? They'll glue you back together again.
Depressed? They have the magic pill.
Lonely? Just spend a few minutes while they rub you down and you'll forget all about it.
And broken hearts? Well, that's their specialty. They'll fix you
For a price…
I swore I wouldn't get involved.
But apparently they like a challenge, and a girl who doesn't put up with their BS is basically like waving a red flag in front of a bull.
They. All. Charged.
But one holds my attention above the rest.
Knox Turner looks like a Viking — and getting pillaged is starting to look more appealing by the day. Though he's hiding something — all of them are. And the closer I get. The more I realize that some things are left better in the past.
You've read reverse harem books before — but you've never read one like this. It's not what you think, or is it? Dive in and find out…
Knox, Leo, Finn, and Slater are waiting, and they aren't patient men.
Welcome to the new face of Wingmen Inc — You're welcome.

Excerpt

It was happening again. The moaning. I put a pillow over my face and screamed. Not because it was too loud. But because I kept wondering who was causing it. One? Two? All three? Leo and Finn had both tried to talk to me in class and at the coffee shop again. I’d brushed them off but been polite. And Knox? Well, let’s just say that Knox had suddenly turned over a leaf that said, “Go out of my way to make Shawn’s life miserable.” He was suddenly everywhere. And with a different female every single day. It drove me insane. Bat-shit crazy. And he wasn’t even mine to go senseless over! The moan happened again. “That’s it!” I got up from my bed, stomped over to the door, and jerked it open. Then I pounded my way over to their room and almost took down the door with my knock . When Leo answered, he grinned down at me. “Come to play?” I gave him the finger. His eyes narrowed. “I’m confused. Is that yes or no?” “Agh!” I threw my hands up in the air. “I have practice tomorrow at five a.m. It’s three. I’ve had one hour of sleep. Can you please keep the moaning to a minimum?” “You seem stressed.” He tilted his head just as Finn joined him in the doorway. “Doesn’t she?” “Very.” Finn nodded then reached out and started massaging my right trap while Leo grabbed my hand and worked my fingers. It felt so damn good that I forgot I was pissed for about two seconds before I pulled away. “No.” I jabbed my finger at each of their chests. “Shame on you. Stop using your skills to make me less crazy. I need sleep.” “I could not agree more.” Leo put his hand over his chest. “If you want, I can come over and—” “No!” I made a fist with my hands. “I don’t need you to help me sleep. I need you to keep your clients quiet so that I can sleep. Big difference.” Knox appeared then and held out a pair of Bose noise-canceling headphones. “You can borrow them every Friday as long as you don’t set them on fire when you’re done.” “Do you think I really want whatever STDs are crawling around the surface?” I hissed. His eyes turned lethal. “Then I guess you won’t sleep.” “Dun, dun, dun,” Finn sang in a low voice, just as a small lady who could pass as my grandmother made an appearance and shoved a fifty-dollar bill in Knox’s pants then patted him on his rock-hard six-pack. She had a full-on red wig perched backward on her head and cherry red cheeks with black glasses that she kept shoving up her nose. And her purse looked like something I would have seen on I Love Lucy. It was this giant black clutch that probably held cough drops and prunes. “Thanks, boys.” “Love you, Edna!” Finn called while Leo brushed a kiss across her hand. She finger-waved at Knox and straight-up waddled out of the suite. I stared after her, my jaw dropping with each step she took until she was out of eyesight. “What…” I shook my head. “…I mean, seriously, guys, what?” Finn’s eyes got serious. “She’s lonely.” “She’s at least eighty!” I yelled, so exhausted I was actually arguing with crazy. Knox got all up in my business and said through clenched teeth, “Her husband died a year ago. She’s not comfortable with internet dating yet. We’re easing her in because she wants a partner for life, someone she can laugh with, so if we can give her that one laugh, that nice touch once a week, we’re going to fucking do it. Now jump off that pedestal, take the damn Bose, and go to sleep.”

Sinister Love by T.L.Smith ~ Release Blitz

Title: Sinister Love
Series: Dark Intentions Duet #2
Author: T.L. Smith
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: April 24, 2018
He was a drug I couldn’t kick. I’d overdosed on him before. It didn’t turn out well.
I was stupid enough to let him crack my heart, in hopes we would fall off the same cliff together. 
No matter how much my idiotic heart wanted to love him, my head knew better. 
He didn’t choose me. 
He chose her. 
That’s where the problem started. 
Maybe that’s how it should end.


5 T.L. Smith Did It Again Stars!

I’m so glad that T.L Smith didn’t let me down when it came to Ryken helping Saskia get out of the situation she was in. In my review for Distorted Love, I mentioned that I hoped I didn’t lose faith in Ryken. I’m ecstatic to say... I didn’t!! In fact, the little nugget he had up his sleeve to help Saskia was H.O.T!! We all know he’s a bad ass, but that scene was so intense, sweaty, and brutal. It made everything that much better!! I will say that enjoyed Distorted Love a little more, but I think it’s because there was so much more angst between Ryken and Saskia. I feel that Sinister Love started out really intense, but half way through, it turned into more of a love story. I personally would have liked a little more action in the second half of the book. However, I understand that T.L probably wanted to end this duet with a HEA. So... all in all, I think Distorted Love and Sinister Love will not go unnoticed! They really do have everything a reader would want between both stories. I’d recommend you 1-click these now!
