***Release Blitz!*** RIOT HOUSE by Callie Hart!

 

RIOT HOUSE by Callie Hart 
Release Date: April 29th   
    

  AVAILABLE NOW!!!

   

Blurb: They might be richer than gods, but they’re morally bankrupt. As far as the boys who run America’s most exclusive international academy are concerned, I’m an unwelcome interloper, an inconvenience, and they’re determined to make my life a living hell. When Wren Jacobi sets eyes on Wolf Hall Academy’s newest inductee, all he sees is an easy mark. A reserved little girl with a target painted on her back. He knows nothing of my troubled past, though. Nothing of my mother’s suspicious death, or the horrific treatment I’ve had to endure at the hands of my psychotic father. And he has no idea of the lengths that I, unassuming little Elodie Stillwater, will go to in order to break the savage beast who dreams of breaking me first. There’s a wolf stalking the forests that surround my new school. Little does he know… There are far scarier predators lurking out there in the dark.        


What a fantastic read! I thoroughly enjoyed this story and hope it is only the first of more to come! I love this author. I am always drawn to her dark plots and broody anti-heroes. The setting was quite alluring and the storyline very captivating. I adored Wren and Elodie and the complexity of their relationship. Their secrets, their chemistry, their journey, the anticipation... it’s the perfect read to get lost in!

It is a story that will make you walk a tightrope, question your sanity, and have you checking your moral compass at the door.

  “There was a truth once. Truth we shared in the dark and scribed scars upon our hearts. There was a lie once. A lie that shattered our hard-earned truth apart.” Eleanor Grace did the unbelievable. She fell for a man who trades in women, dabbles in myth, and has the morals of a cold-hearted beast. However, love isn’t enough where past sins are concerned and only pain can follow. Sully Sinclair did the impossible. He gave his trust to a goddess who has the ultimate power to break him. Unfortunately, paradise is just an illusion, his islands aren’t impenetrable, and now he has to pay the price. A fledgling connection. A war they can’t stop. A future that doesn’t bow to fate.

***Release Blitz!*** MY FAVORITE SOUVENIR by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland!


MY FAVORITE SOUVENIR IS LIVE!

A Contemporary Romance Novel
New York Times Bestselling Authors Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland

BLURB
My planned trip for two unexpectedly turned into a trip for one. Rather than let
my breakup get me down, I packed my bags and decided a week at a luxury
resort was just what I needed.
But one calamity after the next, and suddenly I was stuck without a hotel room,
along with a few hundred other people.
It looked like my fancy vacation was about to turn into me sleeping on the hotel
lobby floor.
Until I overheard a gorgeous man pretending to be someone he wasn’t in order
to steal a reservation from a guest who hadn’t shown up yet.
When I realized there were two rooms, instead of calling him out, I pretended to
be his sister. That’s how the story of “Milo and Maddie Hooker” began.
We were the Hookers.
My depressing trip quickly made a U-turn into an adventure.
My fake brother spent the next few days showing me around his hometown.
When it was time to leave, neither of us really wanted to go yet.
So, instead of flying back to our respective homes, we ventured on a road trip.
At every stop, we’d pick up souvenirs.
But as hot as our chemistry was, we never crossed the line.
Milo knew I’d just come out of a tough relationship and didn’t want to mess with
a vulnerable woman.
So instead, at the end of our trip, we made a pact to meet again in three
months.
It was always my intention to meet him.
But when I got back home, reality hit in a big way.
And I worried I may have lost my handsome stranger forever.
Was there a place for him in my future?
Or had the memory of him just become my favorite souvenir?

What a cute, sweet read! My Favorite Souvenir was light and funny and was absolutely what I needed to read right now. With everything going on in the world today, it was a perfect escape from reality. I loved the premise of this story. Matteo and Hazel were adorable and so relatable. I enjoyed joining them on their adventure of self discovery and inner healing. It was fun to watch them become friends first and then, fall in love. The slow burn was perfect and just made their connection even more special. If you are looking for a light-hearted read with little drama, but with lots of wit, I highly recommend My Favorite Souvenir. It will leave you with a smile on your face:)

***Cover Reveal!*** THE HUNTER by L.J. Shen!

Hunter - CR banner

Boston’s debauched elite is going up in flames, and it’s the Fitzpatrick family that set it on fire.

The Hunter, an all-new dazzling and delicious contemporary romance from USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen is coming May 11th and we have the stunning cover!

HUNTER_FINAL 4.35.30 PM

Hunter
I didn’t mean to star in a sex tape, okay?
It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds.
It just happened.
Now my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston’s nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan.
The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family’s oil company.
Little does she know, that’s not the only pipe I’ll be laying…
Sailor
I didn’t want this gig, okay?
But the deal was too sweet to walk away from.
I needed the public endorsement; Hunter needed a nanny.
Besides, what’s six months in the grand scheme of things?
It’s not like I’m in danger of falling in love with the appallingly gorgeous, charismatic gazillionaire who happens to be one of Boston’s most eligible bachelors.
No. I will remain immune to Hunter Fitzpatrick’s charm.
Even at the cost of losing everything I have.
Even at the cost of burning down his kingdom.

***Blog Tour!*** MASTER OF SALT & BONES by Keri Lake!



When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He’d ride up on his white steed and break the curse I’ve been fated to carry since the day I was born. 

Funny how things changed over time. How the fairy tale twisted into something far more crooked, darker than I ever imagined.  

In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn’t searching for me. He never was.

Lucian Blackthorne is as cursed as I am, and equally shunned by the locals, the fishers of men, who believe him to be the devil in the flesh. 

Perhaps he is, with the way his amber eyes draw me in, ignite me like an infernal blaze. And the sins he whispers in my ear are as wickedly intoxicating as the man himself.

Yet, his touch is heaven and his will is my weakness.

He calls us forbidden, an unsalvageable tragedy, with no happy end. Maybe we are. But in this story, her's the one who needs saving.

WHOA! What a read! This cover! This story! Lucian and Isa!
5 brilliant STARS!

I just finished this story and I am once again blown away by this author. Keri Lake​ has written a hauntingly, beautiful love story that will make you fall in love with Lucian Blackthorne, the devil himself. Everything about Lucian and Isa’s story is twisted and tragic, and like all tragedies, everything isn’t always as it seems. If you enjoy a dark and spellbinding romance, I highly recommend you read their story!

"There was only light and darkness, and in the darkness, I found peace."

Isa is a survivor. No stranger to tragedy and loss, she is searching for a new life. A life away from her past and the small town that has turned their backs on her. Her remarkable strength and maturity will lead her to the one place she never thought she would find solace and comfort. A dark and mysterious castle that holds more secrets and lies than anyone could have imagined.

"He looks like a god. One roughened by life and wounded in battle." ,.

Lucian Blackthorne. The Mad Son. The Devil of Bonesalt. Broken and lost. The fallen prince. Oh, how I loved him! An unconventional, beautiful anti-hero with a heart wrapped in barb wire. I was drawn to him immediately. Even when I wasn't sure I should have been. Dark and depraved never looked so good!

"Together, we are madness. And there is music in madness, and madness in love."

Lucian and Isa's story is so unique. The setting, the storyline, the twists, the characters... absolute perfection! I devoured their story. I was consumed by every event that led to the end and enjoyed every minute of it.

“I went in search of the villain, instead, and found him alone and in pain, living in a castle of bones. A darker version of my mother’s knight, whose armor had dents and cracks, and his hands sullied with blood. A broken man who tasted of salt and depravity, and who took me selfishly, without apology. He’s the curse my mother warned me about. The Devil of Bonesalt, the Mad Son, with whom I’ve fallen irrevocably in love.”

Gah! This quote! Master of Salt & Bones is a MUST READ!
