Bane by L.J. Shen

Release Date: May 10th

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Cover Designer: Letitia Hasser at RBA Design

Photographer: Pavel Lepikhin

Model: Vadim Ivanov

Bane

Naked surfer. Habitual pothead. A con, a liar, a thief and a fraud.

Last I heard, he was extorting the rich and screwing their wives for a living.

Which is why I’m more than a little surprised to find him at my threshold, looking for my friendship, my services, and most puzzling of all—looking humbled.

Thing is, I’m on a boycott. Literally—I cut boys from my life. Permanently.

Problem is, Bane is not a boy, he is all man, and I’m falling, crashing, drowning in his sweet, perfect lies.

Jesse Carter

Hot as hell, cold as ice.

I wasn’t aware of her existence until a fat, juicy deal landed in my lap.

She’s a part of it, a little plaything to kill some time.

She is collateral, a means to an end, and a side-bonus for striking a deal with her oil tycoon stepdad.

More than anything, Jesse Carter is a tough nut to crack.

Little does she know, I have the f****** teeth for it.

It’s Holy Matrimony, Baby By Misti Murphy cover reveal!

Title: It’s Holy Matrimony, Baby

Author: Misti Murphy

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: May 8th

So many women spend their lives dreaming of their wedding day. Their mother’s dress. The walk down the aisle. The disgustingly perfect bouquet.

Yeah, that’s not me. I don’t believe in the idea that love is more than a complex chemical equation with an expiration date. In fact, I’m pretty sure it’s a curse.

But I have a secret…

A weakness…

A mistake…

Nox Casey is rock star gorgeous. Broody, blue eyed and built, he’s a fallen god among mortals. And he’s driving me crazy. When he looks at me science goes out the window. When he speaks my body catches fire like Hendrix’s guitar. And when he plays me…

Did I mention he’s my husband? I married him.

And now he won’t let me go.

Misti Murphy is a sadistic b*tch who loves to emotionally torture fictional people. If she did that in real life she’d probably end up in prison or a psych ward so she prefers to create dirty talking alphas and the sexually frustrated women who fall into their beds. And if someone needs to be smacked upside the head before f*cking turns to love then that makes her very happy indeed. She’s a huge believer in flaws making us human, and that not everyone likes bacon. She’s also addicted to chocolate and scared of the effects of the coming shortage. She swears like a f*cking trooper, and thinks that graphic smuttiness should be as real in fiction as it is in real life.

When she’s not writing she’s the perfect housewife and mother. Ha bloody ha! When she’s not writing she’s hiding in a cupboard with her kindle, scoffing chocolate, and stalking facebook.

Clipped Wings by Betty Shreffler review!

Synopsis:

They call me the Devil’s assassin. It’s true. I have blood on my hands.
As the VP of the Serpents, my life is driven by loyalty, honor, brotherhood.
Until I see her.
Too young, too innocent. Mine to claim.

What I am, what I do, can never reach her. My dark secrets are scars I bear alone.
I’m torn between my duties and the woman I’ll die to protect.
Until…they try to take what’s mine

-from Goodreads

My thoughts:

This was my first book by Betty Shreffler and I really enjoyed it. There is a little inner drama going on in the M.C. that had me so interested I couldn’t stop reading. The relationship was sort of instant but I liked it. Dom and Erika are so cute. Dom is the VP of the Serpents M.C. and Erika is kind of naive but full of hope but she’s got moxie lol! I was glad to see they got their HEA!

Soft Wild Ache by Vivian Lux

Title: Soft Wild Ache

Author: Vivian Lux

Series: The Kings of Crown Creek #3

Genre: Contemporary Romance / Rockstar

Beau King is the most beautiful sin I’ve ever seen.

I grew up knowing one thing: the outside world is wrong.
Books? Sinful. Nonbelievers? Destined for hellfire.
And rock music? Pure evil.
Beau is everything my mother warned me about.
Hazel green eyes. Tempting voice. And that ripped body? Heaven help me.

I want his mouth on mine and his hands in forbidden places.
I want to confess the soft wild ache in my heart to him.
But even though I’ve left the cult behind, I still can’t escape.
I’ve cast off its chains, but I’m not free.
If I let myself fall from grace and into Beau’s arms, can I ever be forgiven?

Vivian Lux loves bad boys who are good men. She lives in Upstate New York with her adorable twin boys and model-hot husband. When she isn’t writing, she’s reading. If she isn’t reading, she’d like to be hiking but is more likely dealing with the mountain of laundry that piled up while she was writing and reading.

Rebel Heir by Vi Keeland &Penelope Ward review!

Synopsis:
How to kick off a great summer in the Hamptons:

Snag a gorgeous rental on the beach. Check.

Get a job at a trendy summer haunt. Check.

How to screw up a great summer in the Hamptons:

Fall for the one guy with a dark leather jacket, scruff on his face, and intense eyes that doesn’t fit in with the rest of the tony looking crowd. A guy you can’t have when you’ll be leaving at the end of the season.

Check. Check. Check.

I should add—especially when the guy is your sexy, tattooed God of a boss.

Especially when he not only owns your place of employment but inherited half of the town.

Especially when he’s mean to you.

Or so I thought.

Until one night when he demanded I get in his car so he could drive me home because he didn’t want me walking in the dark.

That was sort of how it all started with Rush.

And then little by little, some of the walls of this hardass man started to come down.

I never expected that the two of us, seemingly opposites from the outside, would grow so close.

I wasn’t supposed to fall for the rebel heir, especially when he made it clear he didn’t want to cross the line with me.

As the temperature turned cooler, the nights became hotter. My summer became a lot more interesting—and complicated.

All good things must come to an end, right?

Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.

COVER REVEAL

Filthy Gods (American Gods 0.5), an all-new Sexy New Adult Romance by R. Scarlett is Coming May 15th!!

Cover Design and Photography by Regina Wamba at Mae I Design and Photography

Synopsis:
Prelude in the American Gods series.

Young. Wealthy. Elite. Attractive. The gentlemen’s secret society at Yale was filled with them.

And Nathaniel Radcliffe, the bane of my existence, was one of them.

As the right hand of the American Gods, he was conceited and arrogant. A dangerously handsome man in a tailored custom suit and shiny black oxford loafers.

The classroom was our battlefield. We made a sport out of arguing and debating, ready to do anything in order to win over the other.

Deadly opponents, deadlier minds.

The secret I’ve been hiding for the last three years?

He just discovered it…and now he has all the power.

Welcome to the Dark Side by Giana Darling review!

Welcome to the Dark Side by Giana Darling

OMG this book was just awesome! I laughed, I cried & was in complete awe of Zeus & Lou Lou’s story. Once I started reading I couldn’t stop. Dirty talking Zeus just blew my mind 😩….this was one of the hottest younger woman and older man books I’ve ever read. I loved how Zeus always had Lou Lou’s back through her fight with cancer. Giana Darling has become one of my favorite authors!

Lessons in Corruption by Giana Darling review!

Lessons in Corruptionby Giana Darling

So I read Daddy Zeus’ book first then I decided to come back and read King’s story and I’m so glad I did! The Garro men are freaking hot! King’s determination to woo and have Cress was so cute he just had a way with words. I hated that he didn’t tell her upfront he was her student and kind of just blindsided her but he apologized and wrote her lovely little poems! I hated Cress’s ex husband and her family they just wanted her to be a doll that did whatever they wanted. I loved how King being in her life led her to her being herself and his Queen ❤️ I love this series!

Sergio by Natasha Knight review!

Sergio by Natasha Knight

Ok so this book hurt my feelings!Sergio felt like death was coming for him and was feeling like life is too short and that should’ve warned me that I was going to cry! Sergio saved Natalie when she was younger and they cross paths again with Nat being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Sergio and Nat were so cute. Sergio didn’t want to condemn Natalie to the life he led but he couldn’t let her go. Even though I hated the ending it was still a good read.
