  • Real Dirty by Meghan March ~ Review Blitz

     

    Real Dirty AMAZONI have everything a guy could want—a new single burning up the charts, more money than a simple country boy could spend, and a woman I’m planning to marry.

    Until she doesn’t show up for my proposal.

    The life I thought was so perfect, isn’t.

    The guy who thought he had everything, doesn’t.

    I’ve got my heart on lockdown, but life sends me straight into the path of a mouthy bartender who puts me in my place.

    Now the only place I want to put her is under me.

    I thought I was done with love, but maybe I’m just getting started.

    REVIEW

    Jill’s Review

    With a title like Real Dirty who wouldn’t want to get down and dirty with Boone Thrasher and delve deep into those pages?

    Poor sexy country superstar BooneThrasher has just had his heart stomped on by his fiancee. I mean really the man planned THE most elaborate proposal in the history of ever, and the B**** didn’t even have the nerve to show her face! I mean really, it looks like he dodged a bullet with that one — but try telling a bruised and battered heart that! (but then again — great country songs come from stuff like this! — just saying!) But a good man doesn’t stay down for long. And underneath that bad boy exterior, that is exactly what this swoonworthy grumpster is! And when he slinks into a bar and comes face to face with a sassy bartender named Ripley the sparks start to fly.

    I loved how these two pushed each other out of their comfort zones. Neither of them just sat back and took life as it came flowing over them, but they fought back, and they fought for each other. And pushed the other to be a better version of themselves. They brought out the best in the other — and really isn’t that what we look for in a relationship. Even when that relationship wasn’t one we were looking for. Even when it comes up out of nowhere at the most inconvenient of times. We want someone who is going to compliment us and boy do Boone & Ripley compliment each other — both in and out of the sack 😉

    Real Dirty is the first book in the Real Dirty Duet… and OMG do I need the next book NOW. But never fear — Real Sexy is literally just around the corner and Meghan March will answer all of our burning questions and finish Boone & Ripley’s story. I have to say that I really adore how she gives us these duets and doesn’t make us wait to get the conclusion. Seriously it is brilliant!

    So do I recommend this — ummm… Hell yes! Go on and #1click now!

    I received a complimentary copy of Real Dirty.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Real Sexy AMAZONIn Nashville, country stars are a dime a dozen.

    I swore I’d never get caught up with one, but Boone Thrasher made a liar out of me.

    I said I’d never put my heart on the line, but he didn’t ask before he stole it.

    Now we’re facing my worst fears, and we’ll see if this country boy is tough enough to see it through.

    Girls like me don’t get happily ever afters… but maybe he’ll prove that wrong too.

  • Tease by Ella Frank ~ Blog Tour

    SBPRBanner-Tease-BT.jpg

    “The Temptation Series by Ella Frank was proof that if we open our minds and our hearts to love without boundaries, the result is nothing less than extraordinary.”

    — Audrey Carlan, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author

    TEASE-EBOOK-AMAZON

    Tease, the sexy new installment in The Temptation Series by Ella Frank is available now!!!

    Tease (Temptation #4) by Ella Frank

    Four years ago I met a man

    who forever changed my life.

    He dared me to try.

    I dared him to love.

    And while that’s where our story began, it’s certainly not where it ended.

    -Tate Morrison

    Excerpt:

    “Hello, counselor. How’d the big case go today?”

    Tate had been eyeing the clock all afternoon waiting to hear the outcome of the Berivax trial, and while he was happy it was finally going to be over, he also hoped all of Logan’s hard work had paid off.

    “When was the last time we had sex?” Logan’s question was so blunt and unexpected it had Tate stumbling over his response for a second, and when he didn’t answer, Logan continued, “You don’t know, do you?”

    The side of Tate’s mouth twitched at Logan’s disgusted tone. “Well, to be fair, you caught me off guard. I had to think for a minute.”

    “And now that you’ve had time to think?”

    “Umm…”

    “Oh my God. You can’t remember,” Logan said, and Tate couldn’t stop his laugh then. “That’s fucking shameful.”

    “We’ve just been—”

    “Don’t say it—”

    “—busy.” Tate headed over to the door that separated the bar from the tiny foyer and stairwell that went up to their loft, shut it behind himself, and took a seat on one of the steps. “Well, we have been. This case of yours has taken up most of your time, and with the bar hours we just got…busy.”

    “Yeah? Well, that shit needs to stop. Right now.”

    Tate leaned his shoulder against the wall and shut his eyes, picturing Logan with his jet-black hair, those piercing blue eyes, and that full, sensual mouth. Tate had barely had time to say goodbye to him this morning, and no matter how much he was laughing it off, Logan was right—this not seeing one another was bullshit. They needed to sit down and work something out, now that Logan’s schedule would be returning to something more manageable.

    “Agreed,” Tate said. “Something needs to change.”

    “Good. How about we discuss it at dinner?”

    Tate winced. “I’m here until one.”

    “Can’t you beg Amelia to stay and come meet me?” Logan asked, and if he hadn’t sounded quite so desperate, Tate might not have caved.

    “Depends.”

    “On?”

    “What am I going to get if I come to you?”

    Logan’s voice lowered to a tone that never failed to make Tate hard. “Me. All night. And maybe again in the morning. I’m in a giving kind of mood.”

    Tate swallowed and stretched his legs out in front of himself, suddenly needing a little more room in his jeans. “All night, huh? It’s been a while since that happened.”

    “It has. So come find me and I’ll rectify that little issue you’re having with remembering our weekend away at the cabin. That was the last time my cock was inside you.”

    “Jesus, Logan.” Tate pressed a palm to his erection, recalling the weekend trip they’d made around three weeks ago. Or maybe it was four. Shit, okay. They did need to work something out if he was having trouble remembering that. “Let me get things settled here and I’ll be at your office in”—he checked his watch—“an hour? Hour and a half?”

    “Perfect,” Logan said. “I’ll be waiting.”

  • Stand by A.L. Jackson ~ Excerpt Reveal & Giveaway

    STAND

    A Bleeding Stars Stand-Alone Novel

    Coming May 22nd

    “Stand is a lyrical dream of power and strength that will steal your mind, body and soul…A mind blowing 10 stars!!!” Queen Zany Book Blog

     

    From NYT & USA Today Bestselling Author A.L. Jackson comes the next seductive, unforgettable Bleeding Stars Stand-Alone Novel…

     

    Zachary Kennedy has never been known as a fighter, but he’ll never regret fighting for her…

     

    I’m Zee Kennedy.

    Quiet. Reserved. Predictable.

    When my brother died, everyone thought I was just the good guy who stepped up to take his place in the band.

     

    No one knew what I was hiding. The one thing I’ve been fighting for.

     

    For seven years, I’ve never lost focus.

     

    Not until one chance encounter with Alexis Kensington.

     

    Now she’s become my greatest temptation.

    I knew better than to touch her, but now that I’ve had a taste, I can’t get enough.

    Her kiss becomes my air. Her body my salvation.

     

    She needed a savior and somehow she became mine.

     

    Taking her was a betrayal. But keeping her means risking everything.

    One look at Alexis Kensington, and I know she’s worth the fight.

    Will my past continue to keep me down or will I finally find the strength to pull myself up and Stand…

    My hands lingered on the keys, and she reached out and set her hand on top of mine.

     

    Warmth and light.

     

    It invaded my senses. Clouded my judgment.

     

    My hand flipped over, palm up, and she threaded her fingers through mine. Her head angled, so soft, this girl so fucking good.

     

    “What is it you want, Zee? What is it you can’t have?”

     

    You.

     

    Flames leapt into that space between us. Alive and dancing and inciting.

     

    A siren’s call.

     

    My tongue darted out to wet my lips, and I was shaking as I lifted our entwined hands. I brushed my knuckles along the silky flesh of her cheek. I swore I saw the trail of pink it left behind, the simplest touch affecting this girl.

     

    She released a shuddered breath. It mingled with mine.

     

    Our mouths were close—too close—and our noses just touched as we hovered in that space.

     

    “I want things that will only ruin me, Alexis. But you…you make me want to wish for them anyway. Make me believe there’s a chance that maybe they could belong to me.”

     

    Tension tethered us, this rigid band that had me rocking in indecision, every second getting closer and closer as I fought the foolish ideas that tried to take root.

     

    Giving in would only destroy me. But none of that seemed to matter when I leaned in and brushed my lips at the corner of her mouth.

     

    Her fucking delicious mouth.

     

    Because fuck. I just needed a taste. Something to take with me. Something to tuck away, even when doing it felt like some kind of brutal tease.

     

    Alexis gasped at the contact. I edged back the barest fraction, and she was panting these tiny breaths.

     

    Breaths I was breathing.

     

    Her eyes locked on mine. Hungry and pleading. Brimming with belief and hope.

     

    I ran my thumb over the corner of her mouth where my lips had just been. “You are so beautiful. I’ve never met a girl quite like you.”

     

    Something so genuine took hold of her expression. “I hardly know you…and somehow you make me feel like I am. Like when you look at me…you see the person I always hoped I’d become.”

     

    Everything stilled at her words.

     

    At her confession.

     

    Because that’s what I wanted.

     

    For this amazing girl to know the way I saw her. That in her space, I felt something different from all the bullshit I’d dealt with for all my life.

     

    I felt like someone different. Someone better. Like the person I’d once hoped I’d become.

    I clutched her stunning face in my hands, searching for resolve. For that dedication that right then somehow felt out of reach.

     

    “Zee,” she whispered.

     

    That was all it took for that band to snap.

     

    My hands drove into her hair. And my mouth? My mouth was devouring hers.

     

    Frenzied in its demand. Pleading the same way as her eyes had been pleading with me. Saying all the things I couldn’t ever say.

     

    Our tongues tangled, and my spirit coiled. Heat spread in a flashfire of need. Lust rose in the knitted air, like this intangible greed we both were grappling for, searching for the fastest way to get to the peak.

     

    Our hands searched and clawed and explored. We were a mess of limbs as we struggled to get closer to each other where we sat side by side on the bench.

     

    “Zachary…Zachary,” she whimpered, grasping me by the back of the head. She crawled forward so she could straddle me.

     

    Motherfuck.

     

    My hands sank into her hips, and she edged up and pressed those gorgeous tits against the wild beat thundering in my chest. A groan rumbled out from somewhere in my soul.

    She felt so perfect. So good.

     

    I wanted to touch her. Explore her. Claim her.

     

    My dick raged against its confines, all that delicious heat at the apex of her thighs grinding against my jean-covered cock.

     

    It’d been too long. Too damned long. I was goin’ out of my mind.

    I warned her I wasn’t the man for her.

    Now she’ll learn what happens when you tempt an animal.

     

    I left my past behind me.

    I ran.

    I didn’t slow down and I didn’t look back.

    I just couldn’t outrun the memories—or the nightmares.

    I came to North Carolina to die.

    Alone.

    I want to be left alone.

    Which would have been fine, if she wasn’t here.

    Hayden Graham claims to want the same thing I do—to be left alone.

    But, she’s a thorn in my side.

    The woman stumbles into one mess after another.

    This time the mess she’s in puts her life and her unborn child in danger.

    I’m barely existing—rotting from the inside out.

    She’s a woman in distress, waiting for a Prince to save her.

    I’m no Prince. I’m just a wounded animal.

    A Beast.

    She tastes like Heaven. She only adds to my Hell.

    She makes me remember things I don’t want to remember.

    Want things that I can’t have.

    Hayden might just be the one to finish destroying me.

    EXCERPT

    Michael doesn’t have that problem. He reaches up and pushes my bra out of the way. Freeing only one of my breasts, the other remaining in the twisted fabric. Cool air hits my nipple, and I moan as a second later his mouth captures it, greedily sucking it into his mouth. He keeps his mouth there, sucking and pressing the nipple to the roof of his mouth, then teasing it with his tongue. At the same time his hand comes back down. He moves to my hips where he pulls me in closer and grinds me against his hard erection.

    Sometime last night he changed from his jeans into cotton jogging pants. I liked them. I appreciated them. They hung low on his hips and he totally rocked them. He was mouthwatering and very warm when he snuggled against me. Right now, I appreciate them for a completely different reason. They’re soft and stretchy over the rigid outline of his hard cock, allowing it to press against my center at just the right angle. It pushes against my pussy hitting my clit when he pulls me down. My body trembles as desire shoots through me.

    “Ride me, Hayden. Ride me,” he urges around my breast, before his hands palm my ass and his fingers bite into my skin. “Fuck baby, ride me.”

    Meet Jordan

    I’m just a girl standing in front of you and asking you to love her

    heh (I might watch too many Rom Com’s)

    The Boy Next Door - ABOUT BOOK


    The boy next door. That’s what he was. Dash Frasier—my hero from the day we met, when I was six and he was nine. His sister was my best friend, the three of us one happy crew. Then one sweaty summer night changed everything.

    No one understood me like Dash. No one made me feel so loved. That’s why, when he skipped town, it wrecked me.

    Now I’m older. Wiser. I’ve just snagged my dream job, writing at a film studio. The lead animator on my project? You guessed it.

    He’s not the boy next door. Not anymore.

    I’m guarding my heart this time.

    But Dash has secrets that could break us both.

    REVIEW

    Jill’s Review

    In The Boy Next Door Ella James gives us a friends to lovers second chance romance that sucked me in and had me rooting for them to find their way back to each other.

    Amelia and Dash grew up as next door neighbors. He was her best friend’s brother (and haven’t we all had a crush on our friend’s older brothers!) And really he was the perfect crush material he rescued her the very first time they met — and he was always around to talk and hang out.. until one day he just stopped showing up. Fast forward to now! Amelia walks into her new summer internship and who the F does she run into? Who is the lead animator of her team? The one she will work oh so closely with? Yeah, you nailed it — that boy from next door! Uh oh!

    Their story is told through both of their POVs as well as through flashbacks. I loved how this was done as it really connected me to them. It made me want to reach through the screen and squeeze them and figure out what secrets were hiding out there so that I could make sure it didn’t explode in their faces and ruin the beauty that was building between them. Becuase I wanted them to succeed. And because damn — the sexy times… I REALLY didn’t want to see that end!

    I recommend this one — this sexy second chance romance is definitely one where you are hoping all that angst that the boy next door went through wins the girl in the end!

    I received a complimentary copy of The Boy Next Door.

    SBPRBanner-SexEd-CR.jpg

    Sex Ed, an all-new HOT and hilarious M/M comedy from Z.B. Heller is coming May 31st!

    Sex-Ed-for-Web

    Sex Ed by Z.B. Heller
    Publication Date: May 31st, 2017
    Cover Designer: Pink Ink Designs
    Genre: Contemporary MM Romance

    Jaxson Dane is harboring a secret.

    Not the fact that he’s a geeky comic book lover, or that he secretly draws his own comic, Bunny Fu Ninja Warrior. It’s not even classified information that he’s out and proud!

    His secret is the shame that he’s a twenty-three-year-old virgin.

    Jaxson isn’t waiting for marriage or even afraid of taking that step, he just hasn’t found the one guy who will accept all of his adorkable qualities. Due to an unfortunate mishap with a self-pleasuring apparatus and his favorite appendage, Jaxson meets Tyler Mason. The emerald-green-eyed nurse is a witness to the mortifying incident, leaving Jaxon both grateful and disappointed in their one-time meeting.

    And then Tyler somehow shows up at Jaxon’s family dinner.

    The very dinner at which Jaxson’s hidden virginity is revealed to everyone, including the captivating nurse.

    Even though he secretly found the ER situation hilarious, Tyler is also able to look past it to see Jaxson’s genuine nature and is drawn to the charming and hapless comic book artist. He’s tempted to pursue the inexperienced Jaxson, but a recent and life-altering decision puts a damper on his wants and desires. However, the more time they spent together, the more willing he is to take the risk of juggling his new commitments and winning Jaxon’s affections.

    A large, insane, and meddlesome family, two prying co-workers, and a sexy nurse are all trying to give Jaxson a crash course in Sex Ed. Will he pass?

    As a little girl it was always a dream for Z.B. Heller to become She-Ra Princess of Power. Since this dream was unobtainable, she spent what was probably way to long in college trying to “find herself”. Becoming an artist scratched the creative itch until the stories in her head were getting to be to loud for her to get anything else accomplished.

    She lives in St. Louis with her husband, son and Flemish Giant rabbit Chloe. In her spare time she likes to read, stalk celebraties on Twitter and create the type of art people scratch their heads about.

    Chance Encounters
    by Jessica Prince
    Publication Date: May 8th, 2017
    Genre: Romantic Comedy

    Chance Encounters, an all-new romantic comedy from Jessica Prince is available now!!

    CHance-Encounters-for-web

    There are three kinds of nerdy women in the world.

    – The Sexy Nerd

    – The Confident Nerd; and

    – The So-Socially-Awkward-it’s-Painful-to-Watch Nerd.

    You can probably guess which one I am. After witnessing me making a fool of myself, Chance Hoffman decided to take pity on me. He’s smart, sexy, charming, and totally out of my league… and for some unexplainable reason, he wants to help me. Who am I to say no? Besides, I need all the assistance I can get.

    There are three things that make a woman irresistible.

    – Confidence

    – A Wicked Sense of Humor; and

    – A Killer Rack.

    Melany Fitzgerald had none of those things. Or so I thought… until I really got to know her. She’s the total package and she doesn’t even realize it. Now I’m stuck with the uncomfortable task of helping her land another guy, all the while trying to ignore the fact that I’m starting to fall for her.

    She thinks she’s an ugly duckling and wants to become a swan. All I want is her. And I’m not giving up without a fight.

    Jill’s Review

    Oh Chance! I wanted you to find a woman… I just never really saw it going down like this! Leave it to Jessica Prince to make it so that after Chance has been spurned by every woman we have seen him with — the shy, bumbling assistant he agreed to help land her crush is the one that brings him to his knees! But OMG! Watching him fall was such a treat! The chemistry between them was electric! But what was truly swoonworthy was how he saw Melany’s true worth right from the start and how he helped to build her self-esteem up! And Melany really had it all — yes she was beyond awkward… yes social situations were her downfall.. but she still had a spine and confidence beneath it all. It was just finding the courage and support to pull it all together.

    I adored this sexy read that managed to be fun and touching at the same time!

    About the Author:

    Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.

    Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.

    In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.

    Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.

    BLURB

    I know what it’s like to have your heart split down the middle. 
    One-half chases her. The other half chases after the lies, deceit, and betrayal. 
    It’s a burning ball of hell. 
    Seconds, minutes, hours, and years all spent endured the depth of my own burning inferno. 
    All of it runs together while life passes me by.
    Thirteen years ago, the woman I was in love with left me standing at the altar. 
    Hurt. 
    Broken. 
    Humiliated. 
    Some say thirteen is a lucky number. 
    Me? I curse the number.
    Now she’s back. 
    Reminding me.
    Torturing me.
    She says things are not what they seem.
    That they weren’t then either.
    Do I believe her?
    Do I forgive? 
    Forget? 
    Time and truth will tell.

    What keeps you motivated and moving forward to conquer your dreams? And why?

     

     

    Humanity keeps me motivated. I have a personal drive to inspire others to their highest potential. I found my passion by helping people transform their physical health/wellness. When I see people becoming better because of me simply sharing my passion inspires me to keep moving each day.

     

     

       What made you decide to become a model?

     

     

    When I was 5 years old I went to a commercial audition for Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The acting/modeling bug bit me early in my childhood and stayed with me. I enjoy the creative process that goes into creating a look. It’s an art of expression.

     

     

      What is it like to see yourself on the cover of a book? 

     

     

    I think it’s awesome.  You get to be something different and fun. It’s a showcase to your work and gives the character in the book somewhat of a face.

     

     

      How many book covers have you been on?

     

     

    I have been on 4 so far and hopefully a few more by the end of this year. I have some new shoots scheduled  and love working with the authors.

     

     

        How do you get into character for a shoot?

     

     

    Shoots are a chance to play a different role. I get to break into an alter ego for a few hours. I also usually have a lot of creative input into the shoots so I truly get to play and have fun. It’s
    work but it’s just fun. We just need to get the best shot that displays the character
    in the authors vision.

     

     

        How did you feel when you did your first ever photo shoot?

     

     

    I was definitely nervous but once the music comes on and you hear the click of the camera and flashing lights.. It’s go time. It’s work and fun. You do what you need to do to get the perfect look and vision. You just have to be playful and have fun. The crazier and more awkward you feel the better the shoot.


        Which tat is your most sacred and why?

     

    R.U.L.E. located on the lower portion of my left thumb. “Rule of THUMB” acronym from RESPECT. UNDERSTANDING. LOVE. EQUALITY.  A reminder of non negotiable attributes
    of a healthy relationship moving forward for myself..

     

     


    What are some of your passions and hobbies?

     

     

    The gym and my health are top passion/hobby. Human awakening, yoga, internal peace, keeping an open mind about the world, mediation, inspiring others. Reading, live music 

     

     

       It’s a Sunday Afternoon, what would we find you doing?

     

     

     Food prepping, gym, cheat meal-usually pizza and cake/ice cream, maybe the beach or  movies, or taking my little man aka LION MONKEY dog aka TRIPP to the park.

     

     


    What’s the most embarrassing fan run in you’ve had because of your modeling?

     

     

    I love running into people that have followed me on social media.. I always find it flattering as long as I am making a positive impact on their lives. However I hate it if I don’t know them
    back it always makes me feel bad or embarrassed.

     

     


    What is the oldest item in your refrigerator and how old is it?

     

     

    Probably the baking soda refresher.. I think you are supposed to change those from time to time and I never do…oops.  Things don’t’ stay in my fridge that long. I EAT A LOT and love food.

     

     


    Favorite quote?

     

     

    Follow your own soul, it knows all the answers, you just have to trust and listen to what you already know. 

     

     


    Song that you can’t help but dance to?

     

     

    I love EDM, R&B, and POP.. so anything with a good beat and sexy lyrics that get your hips moving like MAGIC MIKE.  There is this cool Henry Krinkle remix called STAY by Justin Martin that gets me moving right now.

     

     


    What did you want to be when you were a kid?

     

     

    I wanted to be so many things. Orthodontist, news anchor, actor/model,  but so happy
    that I found my passion to help others through health/wellness and run #RVDFIT as an entrepreneur.

  • Real Dirty by Meghan March ~ Release Blitz

     

    Real Dirty AMAZONI have everything a guy could want—a new single burning up the charts, more money than a simple country boy could spend, and a woman I’m planning to marry.

    Until she doesn’t show up for my proposal.

    The life I thought was so perfect, isn’t.

    The guy who thought he had everything, doesn’t.

    I’ve got my heart on lockdown, but life sends me straight into the path of a mouthy bartender who puts me in my place.

    Now the only place I want to put her is under me.

    I thought I was done with love, but maybe I’m just getting started.

    Real Sexy AMAZONIn Nashville, country stars are a dime a dozen.

    I swore I’d never get caught up with one, but Boone Thrasher made a liar out of me.

    I said I’d never put my heart on the line, but he didn’t ask before he stole it.

    Now we’re facing my worst fears, and we’ll see if this country boy is tough enough to see it through.

    Girls like me don’t get happily ever afters… but maybe he’ll prove that wrong too.
