BOOK BLURB:
Running about 7 bananas strong on shots from Hale and Oscar Maree’s wedding bar, what happened between Landon Grace and Sher Traifere was supposed to be a one time thing. A quickie on a romantic night. Sher wanted a fast evening of fireworks to remember on the dull horizon of her life; Landon wanted to get his mind off his psycho ex by feeling Sher’s curves. By the end of the evening, a secret of Sher’s complicates Landon’s attempt to escape the girl’s chainsaw giggle.
Some one-night-stands just can’t be finished in one night.
Even more complicating, this one rises back up with a hard shot of morning sickness and an entire repertoire of questions. The most important being: how much pull does a guy really have in a woman’s choice to pursue or terminate a pregnancy?
And in this case, how clever can he be about stealing her pants?

Struggling to fit into the destiny she’s accepted, Nalena Maxwell has been left with one objective: she must find her murdered grandfather’s Memory. Stolen and hidden away by her own father over seventeen years ago, the Memory could be the key to ending the Cusp and destroying the Ianua’s rival community, The Fury.
Driven by each individual’s selfish desires, The Fury has always lacked the loyalty and organization it needs to be an actual force of power.
Until now.
Someone masterminded the Fury’s massive attack on the Ianua, slaughtering twelve of their thirteen community leaders, the Addos. Now there are rumors that the 13th Cura, to which Nali belongs, has gone to the Fury, manipulating the last Addo in order to control the other 12 Curas.
As the Cusp brings the Fury and their own communities against them, Nalena’s Cura must preserve the Ianua, but finding the key to the Cusp isn’t as simple as it seems.

And she was safe in Garrett’s arms.
Then it all comes rushing back—the riots, The Fury, the Cusp. The Ianua community is in a major jam.
Forced into survival mode, the Ianua are holed up in the fortress of the Hotel Celare. Each Cura’s top-ranking members have gathered to guard the last remaining Addo, as the entire community also scrambles to trust one another and organize a new game plan to overthrow The Fury.
The trick is to keep the human race alive.
But The Fury’s game has changed. They have a Mastermind at the helm and he is out to destroy the Ianua.
Terrifying and brilliant, this mysterious Mastermind has organized and focused The Fury like never before. He has recruited the Simple and unleashed the Cusp’s wide-spread chaos all around the world.
And behind the scenes of this big picture, Nalena and everyone around her are busy trying to keep up, while also absorbing the rapid-fire aftershocks of their changing lives. There are traitors everywhere.
While The Cusp is expected to bring twists and turns, Nalena and Garrett never expected it to throw a silverware-drawer full of forks into the road. Each path tests their loyalty and their faith and makes them question who is who.
Including themselves.
And each other.
And in the end, some things, you can never see coming.

But for now, she’s just a 18-year-old girl with a flimsy hope, barely getting by with her alcoholic father, Jerry.
But for Hale, ‘crappy’ suddenly takes a nosedive, when Jerry becomes the sole witness to a horrible accident. It is an event which means to affect everyone, especially Hale, who wasn’t even involved.
While the depth of the accident has just begun to unfold, Otto Maree, a prominent business man and old family friend, stands to lose everything because of it. Otto is desperate for Hale’s father to stay quiet about what occurred the night the two men meet for a drink. Out of mutual moments of desperation, the two fathers forge a deal. Jerry is desperate to gain financial stability for both himself and Hale, and Otto Maree is more than willing to pay to keep his secret just that.
But deals like this need to be made of the strongest vows and bound with the most faithful of loyalties. Otto proposes a marriage between Hale and his playboy-son, Oscar, in order to assure that the secret remains ‘in the family’. The mystery surrounding the accident continues to grow and Hale struggles against her own mysterious feelings that begin to develop for Oscar, who turns out to less of a playboy, but just as fiercely loyal and dedicated as his father.

New Release: One Tiny Secret by Adam Kunz

A couple weeks ago I was lucky enough to get an advance copy of Adam’s new book. I’ve known Adam for a while now and I think he’s an amazing person. Smart, creative, nice as they come and funny as hell. I read One Tiny Secret in a single day. I love a good mystery now and then. My mother was probably the world’s biggest Agatha Christie and Alfred Hitchcock fan, so I grew up watching countless whodunnits. I’m VERY good at figuring out who the culprit is early on. Just ask my husband who used to be annoyed at how quickly I was able to spot the killer on the TV shows we watch.

Did I figure out who did it in One Tiny Secret? Yes. But it took the better part of the book. Adam did his homework as a writer and laid down the tracks and clues subtly and one by one. That’s much harder than it sounds, folks. Did I see the twist after the reveal? No. I simply wasn’t expecting it because frankly, not many mystery/suspense writers employ what I call the Hitchcock method – added twists. That twist wasn’t just thrown in there, either. Nope. It was skillfully done. Adam set up the entire plot structure like a complex Domino train and it was delightful to watch them come down with such precision. One Tiny Secret also has something else I prefer in my suspense: a healthy dose of horror. I don’t do cozy mysteries.

It says  in my FAQ’s that I don’t do reviews and that’s true. I’m a writer, not a reviewer. But I adore Adam and I love his writing. Personally, I think he’s found his stride in dark suspense. I give One Tiny Secret

Okay, so here’s the blurb:

**Mature Content Warning** Recommended for 17+ due to language, violence, and sexual content.

Just one tiny secret has the potential to ruin everything.

Being the daughter of the sheriff in a small town like Holden Ridge means that eighteen-year-old Danielle “Dani” Marks’ life is under constant surveillance. She’s made a habit of staying under the radar by being a floater among social circles at school, which has kept her out of trouble—until now.

After a missing persons case stirs up the entire town, Dani finds herself caught right in the middle of the scandal. When she’s labeled a possible suspect, things quickly go from bad to worse. The sudden return of her old flame, Parker Reed, manages to make her whole situation even more complicated.

When an elusive unknown person begins to blackmail Dani by threatening to reveal her deepest secrets, Dani refuses to play along. That is, until the person’s actions take a violent turn. Holden Ridge loses its sense of quaint town security, and Dani is caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse.

Who can she trust when anyone around her could be a suspect?

One thing’s for certain though: Never underestimate the power of one tiny secret.

Witch Hearts by Liz Long

WITCH HEARTS by Liz Long LIVE on Amazon!

One of the best things about my job is meeting wonderful, new people. Liz is certainly one of them. She’s always there for her fellow writers and has a heart of gold. She’s released a new book and I couldn’t be happier to host her. Take it away, Liz!

—-

To my friends and readers: Thanking you is the first thing on my list. Writers do it for the readers and I am so excited to introduce this new story to you. For the fellow authors, the book bloggers, the Twitter friends, and support groups in my writing life, know that we’re in this together and I couldn’t do it without you. I am so honored you joined me for this fun ride.

I am proud to say that my second title WITCH HEARTS is now LIVE on Amazon for paperback ($8.99) and your Kindle ($2.99).

Witch Hearts is an adult paranormal thriller meant for those who liked to be a little creeped out and also enjoy a murder mystery. Touted as a “Criminal Minds” meets “Charmed” story, Witch Hearts contains three of Liz’s favorite things: Magic, Murder, and Mystery.

Below you’ll find the cover and blurb, as well as a bit about Liz Long plus a special excerpt not available anywhere else.

Witch Hearts Synopsis:

How does a witch stay safe if a killer can get through her protection spells?

Witches like Ruby and Courtney can take care of themselves. So when Courtney is murdered, Ruby’s world crashes to a halt. The only thing keeping her grounded is the return of Courtney’s brother, Cooper. He seeks revenge, but Ruby wants to help other witches stay alive. To do that, she’ll have to reunite with her old coven’s High Priest, who also happens to be her cheating ex-boyfriend.

If that wasn’t awkward enough, when the killer gets too close, Cooper temporarily moves into Ruby’s place while a police officer tails her every move. Cooper’s presence distracts Ruby as they fight their desire against their need to stay safe. Then Courtney begins to haunt Ruby’s dreams and secrets are spilled, things from Cooper’s past that could get them both killed. The killer continues to stalk Ruby and the more she discovers, the more she fears she won’t be able to keep her heart in her chest.

Excerpt:

Cooper and Ruby hopped on his bike and drove back to her place. She even managed to peek out from beneath her helmet to see the city whip past her in a blur. When they finally came to a stop, she untangled herself from him – albeit a tad regretful about it – and handed him back the helmet.

“Thanks again for everything tonight. I know it wasn’t the most fun you could have, but I want everyone to be safe,” she said.

“I understand. I’m glad I went, too. I don’t want anyone else in danger. Plus, you’re good company.” He stood up as he said it, hooking the helmets on his bike.

“You don’t have walk me in or anything. I don’t want to keep you any longer than you need.”

He snorted. “You’re not keeping me from anything. I want to do it, but especially because I want to make sure you’re safe.”

Ruby bit her bottom lip. Her nerves fluttered a bit at the thought of a possible goodnight kiss. She could hardly believe how immature she sounded in her head.

It’s your best friend’s brother. This is Cooper we’re talking about, a voice in her head screamed at her.

Another voice spoke up. Yeah. It’s Cooper. And your thoughts about him have never been exactly brotherly.

Shaking both voices away, she swiped her key fob by the entrance door and Cooper held it open for her. They took the stairs up to the second floor and walked around the corner to her apartment. Ruby stopped as soon as she saw her door.

“Something’s wrong,” she said.

“What? How can you tell?” He looked up and down the hallway.

“There was a barrier when I left. Remember I checked, put my hand on the door when we left? My spell was in place.”

“There was a soft glow on the door,” he said absentmindedly, as though remembering. His eyes narrowed and Ruby could see his veins throb in his neck as his jaw tightened.

“Only witches would be able to see it, but it’s not there.” Ruby took a few steps forward, placing her hand on the door, which was now simply cool and wooden. She retrieved her key and turned the lock, but Cooper stopped her.

“I’ll go in first.”

He swung the door wide open; he held his hands up in case of a fight or a spell, but silence greeted them. Cooper did a quick sweep of the apartment while Ruby waited in the entryway. He returned with Aziza in one arm and a letter in his hand.

“This was on your coffee table,” he said grimly. “Aziza was hiding behind the couch. She hissed until she realized it was me.”

Ruby took the note from him. As she opened it, Cooper stood beside her to read over her shoulder.

“Not all witches are equal. Some are born with extraordinary gifts; anyone can practice, but few are truly powerful. You are one of the lucky ones, Ruby. I apologize about your friend Courtney. She was powerful, but nowhere near your capabilities. I’m afraid that in order for my powers to thrive, yours must come to an end. I’ll be seeing you very soon. -X”

The Beezlepup Diaries: Pleased to Meet You. Hope You Guessed My Name

Hey! It’s Ronan again. Last week I said I’d tell you how Mom came up with calling me a Beezlepup.

I was just a pup – 10 wks old. I’d just settled in to my new home with Mom, Dad, and my new doggie sister, Tasha. Settling into a new home is ruff! So much to get into the first week!  Activities:

Digging in water bowls. This time, I did it outside.

Aerating Mom’s slippers.

There might have been a few other things, too, but I’m a fast learner. Mom wanted to see if I could climb, so she put up baby gates in the kitchen. It was exhausting, climbing over that first gate, but I just put one paw into the the holes and up I went! Nothing was going to keep me from snuggling with Mom!

Learning to climb over the baby gate.

I also left my mark by well, leaving my teeth marks in a widow sill. Oh! And the housebreaking! What IS it with you humans? You get to pee inside and we have to go in the yard?

Grrr!

Mom made this weird steel mini den in her bedroom for me to sleep at night. Put padding down and everything. But I was smarter than that! Well, no, I wasn’t. I was scared. Gimme a break! I was just a baby! All I wanted was to sleep with Mom. I knew that if I just kept at it all night for a couple of nights she’d have to see it my way. Luckily, she did.

My first big weekend out was with the whole family. We went to a local coffee shop and sat outside on the patio. Mom said it was a Sunday, which was silly, because I don’t recall there being any sun. Anyway, Mom and Dad were finishing their drinks, and big sister was laying at their feet. I was sitting in Mom’s lap. Ah! It was good to be the pup!  Anyway, people where ooohing and ahhing over me. I know, right? I was just so adorable!

I mean, just look at me!

Do I need a breath mint?

I guess they’d all come to see me and it was a special event because most of the people there were all dressed up. Mom said something about church and the bible belt,  but I still don’t know what that means.

This woman  at the far end of the patio sees me and smiles. She gets up and comes toward us. “What kind of dog is that?” she shouts at Mom and Dad from halfway across the patio.

Mom got that question a lot. She was tired that morning, saying I’d kept her awake at night again or something ridiculous like that. I just looked up at her and waited for her to explain. “He’s a Beezlepup,” she replied.

I thought that was weird because I’d been told I was a Shikoku. But I guess I was now this new breed called a Beezlepup. It was sort of pleasing, thinking that I was the first of a whole new breed. Kinda like that tiger in Winnie the Pooh – the one who calls himself a Tigger.

The woman turned to face her husband and shouted back across the patio, “George! He’s a Beezlepup! I think our neighbors have one, too!”

Which can’t be! Blasphemy!

 Everyone of those other church-goers must have thought so too, because they all whipped their heads to look at us. I heard someone mention the words Beezlebub and demon, whatever those are.

Dad scrambled to his feet and took Tasha. Mom had me in her arms and followed. I wanted to tell them to wait, that those people clearly had misunderstood! Beezlepup only sounds like Beezlebub, but we were already in the car.

Anyway, now you know how Mom came up with that name. Beezlepup. It’s so cool that I’m the only one! Just like that Tigger guy.

Okay, that’s it for this week. I think the Fex Ex guy is here. Time to do my job and scare him away. I don’t get this guy! He comes back every so often to kill us all and I scare him off. Every time he leaves us a present to say he’s sorry. Silly humans!

Emma Hart: Holding On

 

Blurb:

Living in London after spending almost twenty years in a town with a population of three hundred would be hard on anyone – and Alec Johnson is no exception to the rule.

When Alec followed Lexy to London, he knew his life would change drastically. He just didn’t know how much. With Lexy’s friends and admirer to contend with, he has to show there’s more to the country surfer boy than is ability to ride the waves. With his own shameless admirers, he has to keep Lexy’s trust – and despite her love for him, that’s no easy task.

 

Beneath her tough girl exterior, all Jennifer Mason has ever wanted to do is paint. London’s School of Art can give her that, and she couldn’t be happier she’s finally breaking free from Lilac Bay. What she’s not happy about is having to leave Carl behind – or his reluctance to visit her while she’s studying.

Their relationship is put to the test as living on her own for the first time and university take their toll on Jen. After all, three hundred miles is a long way to be away from your boyfriend when you’re eighteen years old.

And it’s even harder when you can’t keep your eyes off your best friend’s older brother.

Excerpt

Alec:

She throws a grape at my head, giggling. I gasp in mock shock, and she freezes. One side of my lips curl upwards. She shakes her head and steps backwards.

“I’m sorry. I was aiming for the, errrr, television,” she hedges.

I run forward, and she squeals. I grasp her round the waist, tickling her. She cries out as I pull her towards the sofa. We both fall onto it, me leaning over her.

“Stop tickling me, please,” she begs, writhing and wriggling beneath me.

“Fine.” I rest my hand against her side instead, pressing my lips to hers. She stops moving for a second. She grazes her teeth along my bottom lip, sucking it into her mouth. I growl a little deep in my throat, feeling the movement all the way down to my dick.

She fists a hand in my hair, holding me against her. Her other hand grips my back, and she loops her legs around mine. I lower my hips until they’re pressing against hers, my tongue slipping between her lips. She whimpers when my hips meet hers, her body tensing slightly under mine. I run my hand along her side, down her thigh, and back up. It creeps beneath her top, making contact with the hot skin waiting there.

I hear her intake of breath at the exact same time there’s a knock on the door.
