*COVER REVEAL* Unmaking Marchant By Ella James

UNMAKING MARCHANT

A LOVE INC. NOVEL

COMING WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2013

Marchant Radcliffe, owner of the exclusive Love Inc. brothel outside Vegas, is no stranger to darkness. He lost his sister in childhood and his parents in college. Since his best friend helped him finance the Love Inc. ranch almost ten years ago, Marchant has drowned himself in business—and he’s thrived, despite the heavy secret that has plagued him since his parents’ deaths.

Then, after ten years of good fortune, Marchant’s skeletons start to peek out of the closet, tossing him down a trail of ruin that begins with arson and could end with murder. Because he’s kept his struggles private, he has no one to pull him back from the brink.

Except for Suri Dalton.

After a breakup with her longtime fiancé, Suri, the daughter of one of Silicon Valley’s tech tycoons, has nowhere to go except her BFF’s new penthouse in Las Vegas. The last thing Suri is looking for is a man, but after drowning her woes in wine on the flight over, she stumbles into a torrid make out session with a beautiful stranger—who just so happens to be Marchant Radcliffe, a playboy and a literal pimp.

Despite an immediate attraction, Suri writes Marchant off as exactly the sort of guy she should avoid. Until Love Inc. goes up in flames, Marchant winds up at the bottom of a swimming pool, and Suri is the only one around to pull him out.

What happens when what you see isn’t what you get? What do you do when destiny is too alluring to resist and too dangerous to survive?

*ARC REVIEW* SWITCHED BY CASSIE MAE

SWITCHED BY CASSIE MAE
TBR: DECEMBER 2 2013

Ever since high school, Kayla has been crazy for gorgeous football player Talon. But before she could muster the courage to tell him, he became a hot item with her beautiful BFF, Reagan. The only person who knows Kayla’s secret is Wesley, Talon’s best bud—and he’s got it bad for Reagan. Now they’re all in college together, hanging out 24/7. For Kayla, seeing the two lovebirds together is absolutely unbearable. So Kayla and Wesley hatch a plot to drive them apart before Talon has a chance to give Reagan the Christmas gift she’s been waiting for.

Soon enough, the once happy couple is fighting. Reagan suddenly can’t get enough of Wesley’s goofy sense of humor, and Talon seems to be paying more attention to Kayla than a guy who’s “only a friend” ever should. But just when everything seems to be falling into place, Kayla and Wesley accidentally spend a night together and discover a hitch in their plan they never considered: that switching partners may not lead to a perfect ending after all.

        Le'BookSquirrel's Review

5 STARS..BUT as usually deserving of far more!!!

Disclaimer:I recieved an ARC for an HONEST Review!

     Here's the deal with Cassie Mae.Each one of her books is better then the last. So everytime I review her books Im like this is the Best Book ever..and then I read her latest work and I'm like well crap.She keeps blowing me away.She keeps going above and beyond what I expect from her.I was all giggly and dancing all around the house when I finished Switched.It took me about an hour to get my giddiness in check and here I am wanting to re-read it so I can just jump back into the lives of these Characters.

     Switched is the story of Kayla and Wesley who are both in love with someone else..specifically Kayla's best friends boyfriend and Wesley,is into Reagan.The problem is they are all four friends and Reagan and Talon are dating.Thus begins the great break up plan from Kayla and Wesley. Fortunately  things don't always turn out as planned and this book has an awesome little twist to it.

I kept envisioning Kayla and Talon during a certain scene

   Can I just say how much I LOVED Kayla and Wesley?In fact I loved the foursome group of friends. Wesley Is my favorite boy that Cassie has written.Cassie writes real characters and thats what I love about her.Wesley isn't this smoldering tattoed,motorcycle riding bad boy who knows exactly what to say every minute of the day.He is a real guy that blushes and has a sarcastic funny side.The Chemistry was on point.I was googly eyed over Wesley.Not going to lie.

 Im going to be honest.Cassie Mae makes it incredibly easy to write reviews for her books.They are all great and on par with those authors who have been given huge book deals. Im not even joking when I tell you to watch out for Cassie Mae.She is the next big thing coming and the book world needs to wake up and listen.I cannot express to you how important it is to read her books.Finally, Cassie You have written another amazing book and as always you deserve a round of applause and thank you for continuing to write.The world needs more writers like you.

But I’m ready to take back what’s mine. I’m ready to be whole again. But every decision has a choice and every choice has a consequence.

To find the grace in darkness, you must

Dare to be BRAVE

Melissa Andrea Bio:

I find it hard to sum up my life in a paragraph, but I'll try.

Reading has always been a passion for me and writing is as instinctive as breathing. Every inhale is an idea; every exhale a creation. Flutter, The Discover Series was my debut release and since then I have written a contemporary romance, The Edge of Darkness. The only thing I do better than writing? Making beautiful, sassy and independent, girls. My daughter's will always be my greatest accomplishment, my biggest fans and my every inspiration. I live, breath and would die for them! I've been married to one of the greatest men in my life for 7 years and I love him more than chocolate (you know shit just got real :), Justin Timberlake and Friday's. Without him my website would be a mess and I would probably being paying more taxes than I should be. He is a jack of many trades and this is just my opinion but I like to think besides my daughters, I'm his second biggest accomplishment. (Does anyone else hear a horn tooting?)I was born in Denver, Colorado -but I will always think of sunny Arizona as my home. I don't have a big family, but I'm close with my sister, brother & my mom. My mom is my hero, my inspiration, and I couldn't have asked for a more amazing person to be raised by. She has supported me throughout this crazy adventure and I'm lucky to have her on my side!

6 things you should know about me:

1. I'm a tornado with lipstick! Translation: I'm very girly, but I can get down and dirty with the best of them.

2. I adore the color pink!

3. I love things that sparkle (including vampires!)

4. I like even numbers (hence 6 things about me, not 5)

5. I'm loyal to a fault but I like to see the good in everybody. Don't mistake my kindness for weakness though because my bark is not always bigger than my bite :))

6. I don't like calling readers 'fans'. When it come down to it, I am all YOUR biggest fan! MWAH!I will never be able to thank every reader, every blogger or every author who has helped me in one or a million ways since I published but I will try every chance I get. Y'all are the reason I am here and every comment, every message, every review makes me feel like I have a reason to be. So to the moon and back, THANK YOU!

Okay, so this was a little longer than a paragraph.

*HAPPY RELEASE DAY* Review Of Making Faces By Amy Harmon

   

There Comes a moment when a book is so special that it leave you at a Loss for words.This is that book for me.I cannot even use Gifs to express how I feel because they aren't worthy enough.

Ambrose Young was beautiful. He was tall and muscular, with hair that touched his shoulders and eyes that burned right through you. The kind of beautiful that graced the covers of romance novels, and Fern Taylor would know. She'd been reading them since she was thirteen. But maybe because he was so beautiful he was never someone Fern thought she could have...until he wasn't beautiful anymore.
Making Faces is the story of a small town where five young men go off to war, and only one comes back. It is the story of loss. Collective loss, individual loss, loss of beauty, loss of life, loss of identity. It is the tale of one girl's love for a broken boy, and a wounded warrior's love for an unremarkable girl. This is a story of friendship that overcomes heartache, heroism that defies the common definitions, and a modern tale of Beauty and the Beast, where we discover that there is a little beauty and a little beast in all of us.

                                                                           5 STARS

I was given an ARC for an honest review

    There comes that moment in every bloggers life where they meet that book.The one that they know their review will in no way be able to express just how amazing the book you just read is. I am taking a deep breath right now and going to attempt my best to put into words exactly how amazing Making Faces is.

      Making Faces is a story from several different angles.You have Fern,Ambrose, and Bailey's Point of View.You also have the story going back and forth from past and present.It is done in a way where you can easily follow and it flows well with the story.In fact it adds so much depth to the story that it takes the story to a brand new level of amazing.
      I will do the best to summarize the story without giving spoilers away.Fern was basically the Ugly Duckling in school and Ambrose the Prince in school.Fern has loved Ambrose forever and Ambrose never really returned her affection during their school years.Bailey is in a wheelchair and suffers from a debilitating disease.Fern and Bailey are best friends and she helps him as best she can.Bailey has an amazing outlook on life. Ambrose is a wrestler who has scholarships waiting on him to take him to college.This story starts in the year 2001.Sadly Sept 11 2001 is brought to life in this story and Ambrose and his friends sign up for the military.Sadly something happens in Afghanistan like you would expect in war and Ambrose is critically injured and his Loss is great.The healing process is great and when he comes back to his hometown he literally runs into Fern.Suddenly the roles are reversed.Fern is no longer the Ugly Duckling(however she has no idea she is beautiful) and Ambrose feels like a monster. 
    Deep Breath, This book  when I read it brought back memories of how I felt when I personally was sitting in class the day the planes hit the World Trade Center Buildings.The fear.The no longer feeling safe and being scared.I remember it so clearly and Amy was able to portray that fear and portray the feeling of no longer feeling safe in America. 
   I connected with Fern like no other character before.She was ME in high school.I said to myself..Amy wrote me in this book.Not only did she mention one of my favorite classic books in there (Anne of Green Gables) but she actually put a bit of that in the story.At least in my opinion I was comparing her writing to that of L.M Montgomery.I saw some of Anne in Fern. Let me be clear when I say that This is in no way a retelling of Anne of Green gables. Im simply saying I felt that pull.
  Finally,Making Faces is breathtaking.Simply put.It is a must read and I honestly can say..Even though I have loved every Amy Harmon book I have ever read that this is her best work yet.I connected with the characters,none of the characters overpowered each other and most of all I connected as I have never connected to a book.Amy,You have written an amazing,amazing book and Kudos to you.You have blown me away.

*Happy Release Day!* The Billionaire Banker By Georgia Le Carre

The Billionaire Banker (Book 1)
Georgia Le Carre

It was meant to be a simple arrangement.  Sex for money.  But she made a mistake and now his life will never be the same.

Synopsis:
When Lana Bloom learns the devastating news that her mother is dying, she is faced with a terrible dilemma.  The one thing that can save her is the one thing she does not have.  For young and innocent Lana, the unthinkable becomes her only choice.


But when she walks through the door of that exclusive restaurant she has no idea of the seismic shift her life is about to take, for the highest bidder will not be the rich man she has accompanied.  Fate drops her at the feet of the deeply mysterious and dazzlingly gorgeous American banker, Blake Law Barrington.  Throbbing with raw masculinity and arrogance, this is a man who owns all that he pursues.

And now he wants her.

Lana cannot deny she is both intrigued and intoxicated by the world Blake inhabits and the smouldering passion he stirs in her body, but she is also fearful for this man is addictive, and right now she is very vulnerable.  She knows she should focus only on the arrangement, but how can she…when he has opened a door that cannot be closed?

Excerpt:
Rupert directs his astonished, vicious eyes at Lana’s.  ‘You offered yourself to him too?’  His eyes move derisively, hatefully over her.
Lana cringes with shame.
‘Does he know how much you charge?’
‘Do you doubt I will be able to afford her?’ Blake asks coldly.
Rupert shrivels the way a leech that has had salt thrown on it does.  ‘This is why you invited me here, isn’t it?’
‘Yes.’
‘What a joke!’ he taunts, but his jibe lacks any real bite.  ‘The great Barrington can’t find his own whore.  He has to steal mine.’
‘I didn’t steal her,’ Blake notes reasonably.  ‘I just offered to pay more.’
Rupert’s eyes bulge, bug-like.  ‘She’s just a cheap bloody tart.  I’ve just finger-fucked her out there,’ he lies maliciously, jerking his dandruff-laden head in the direction of the door.
Lana feels Blake’s hand tighten around her waist.  ‘Consider it an unearned freebie, then,’ he says quietly, but there is warning in the calm words.  A warning that is not lost on Rupert.  The air becomes tight with tension.  Lana looks from one man to the other.  It is like watching two lions fighting for supremacy.  But her body knows which lion she wants to win this fight.
Rupert shrugs.  He knows he’d be a fool to go against a Barrington.  He has much to lose.  ‘If you think I’m going to fight over her you’re mistaken.  Have her.’
He turns on his heel and leaves.
Blake lets go of Lana.  She realizes she is trembling.  She leans against the desk, hating herself, but unable to stop—nothing is more important than the money—she asks, ‘Did you…did you mean it about the money?’

*COVER REVEAL* A Long Time Coming By Heather Van Fleet

Guess who has a NEW Book Coming out?!?!?!?HEATHER VAN FLEET..Thats who!!!Today we are revealing her AWESOME Cover for A Long Time Coming!!!!!

Title: A Long Time Coming  (Perfect Timing Series #2)

Author: Heather Van Fleet

Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance

Release Day: November 12^th, 2013

Publisher: Sunshine Press

Reveal Host: Lady Amber's Tours

Blurb:

Abigail Orson has a problem. A love problem to be exact. And she has absolutely no idea how to go about fixing it.

For years now, she’s been chasing her best friend’s brother––demanding things from him that he’s never wanted to give. For one? A real relationship that stems well beyond that dreaded ‘just friend’s’ zone. You see, David Anderson is her perfection to a T. The one and only guy that’s ever had the ability to make her heart beat faster––make her toes curl with the simple blink of his long, girly lashes. But David is also a recovering amputee, and the only thing he really wants out of Abigail, is to be left alone. Abigail’s a fighter though, and losing the one guy who has ruined her for every other man is no longer an option.

He’s a waste of space. A guy with one leg who has lost his motivation to live––to love––to be a man in general. If only the beautiful girl, of his unattainable dreams, would get that through her perfect, blonde, stubborn head! He’s not the right guy for Abigail––he’ll never be worthy of what she deserves. But staying away is almost impossible, especially when he’s just as in love with her as she is him. But Abigail has a life ahead of her––one that’s definitely livable without a nineteen year old gimp like him holding her down. What makes her want to stick around is beyond questionable anymore.

Choices will be made. Lines will be drawn. And the two of them will face challenges that nobody saw coming. David and Abigail may have had thirteen years to fall in love, but the thing is, timing and love have never exactly worked in their favor either...

Not going to lie...that was about my Reaction when I read the blurb and found out Heather was releasing ANOTHER Book..YEEEEHAW.

Excerpt:

He made it to his feet, swaying slightly to the side, just as she reached out a hand to steady him. Her brows drifted together, her lips were pursed to kill. All sass and spice––the girl was straight up sex in a sweater dress. “And what is that supposed to mean?” She stood with her hands at her hips. David narrowed his eyes as her neckline slipped lower. He traced the edge with his gaze, wishing it was his fingers instead.

“It just means that you’re trying to mess with my head.”

She scoffed, pressing her hand over the dip of that crack he wanted to keep ogling. Damn. That was twice now in a span of two seconds that he imagined touching that very spot. This time though, he wasn’t thinking about using his hands… He sucked in a gasp and released a quiet groan at the thought. Yeah, he was in a shit ton of trouble with this girl.

But really though, what was new?

Author Bio:
