  • Womanizer by Katy Evans ~ Release Tour

    WOMANIZER RT BANNER .jpgWomanizer by Katy Evans

    Release Date: December 5th, 2016
    Genre: Contemporary Romance

    Womanizer-v2-Ebook (1).jpg

    Synopsis:

    From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Katy Evans comes a brand new contemporary romance. WOMANIZER is a full length standalone, and no other books in the series need to be read.

    You’ve seen the headlines: Womanizing billionaire player! Watch out! Stay away!

    We were just two strangers. Facing a forbidden attraction, a chemical connection. Neither of us expected or wanted it to amount to more.

    But I had never been drawn to a guy the way I was drawn to this one: my brother’s best friend, and CEO of the company where I interned.

    Even knowing I should stay away, I proved to be too human, after all.

    The chemistry was amazing.

    The laughs were incredible.

    I opened up to him in more ways than I’d opened up to anyone before.

    But sex was as far as I’d go.

    Just sex because he was too irresistible.

    Just sex because I wouldn’t be falling for him.

    Just sex because I’d leave in three months, and I’d like for my brother not to kill me, and for nobody to find out he was my wicked little secret.

    He wasn’t the One.

    He was just a womanizer.

    But for a time, he would be mine.

    Review:

    Jill’s Review

    I had been looking forward to Callan’s story and Katy Evans definitely delivered with Womanizer.

    Womanizer was a sexy story that covered so many of those fun “taboo” tropes we all devour – best friend’s little sister, CEO & intern, and of course that womanizer, that playboy you know you need to stay away from.

    From the moment they meet… that chance encounter on the roof I was immediately rooting for them. You could feel that electricity pulsing between them from that first encounter. The banter between them was just perfect and drew me right in. I craved their meetings just as much as they did and I couldn’t wait to see where they led. I also just loved that they met not knowing who the other was. It made their relationship so much more honest. It allowed them to get to know each other as people without all the other baggage hanging over their heads. Just two strangers who met and were attracted to each other.

    I adored them together. Their chemistry, their banter, how they challenged each other and made each other better people. It was just a whole story.. not just their relationship and it kept me glued to the pages hoping that everything would work out for them.

    I definitely recommend this book. It is a story that will have you swooning!

    I received a complimentary copy of Womanizer.

  • A Veil of Vines by Tillie Cole ~Excerpt Reveal

    To most people, princes, princesses, counts and dukes are found only in the pages of the most famous of fairytales. Crowns, priceless jewels and gilded thrones belong only in childhood dreams.
    But for some, these frivolous fancies are truth.
    For some, they are real life.
    On Manhattan’s Upper East Side, people have always treated me as someone special. All because of my ancestral name and legacy. All because of a connection I share to our home country’s most important family of all.
    I am Caresa Acardi, the Duchessa di Parma. A blue blood of Italy. I was born to marry well. And now the marriage date is set.
    I am to marry into House Savona. The family that would have been the royals had Italy not abolished the monarchy in 1946. But to the aristocrats of my home, the abolition means nothing at all.
    The Savonas still hold power where it counts most.
    In our tight-knit world of money, status and masked balls, they are everything and more.
    And I am soon to become one of them.
    I am soon to become Prince Zeno Savona’s wife…
    … or at least I was, until I met Achille.
    And everything changed.
    Caresa
    I closed my eyes as the music pounded through my body. The air was sticky from the mass of bodies on the dance floor. My body swayed to the beat, my feet ached from the five-inch Louboutin heels I was wearing, and my skin was flushed from the copious amounts of 1990 Dom Pérignon I had consumed.
    “Caresa!” My name split through the harsh sound of drums and synthesized piano notes. I rolled my eyes open and looked across our cornered-off section of the club at my best friend.
    Marietta was sitting on an oversized plush couch, waving a new bottle of champagne in my direction. Laughing, I followed my throbbing feet to where she sat and slumped down beside her. In seconds, a champagne flute was in my hand and the bubbly was flowing once more.
    Marietta sat forward, swishing her long blond hair over her shoulder. She raised her glass as though she was going to make a toast. But instead, her bottom lip jutted out into a pathetic pout.
    I tipped my head to one side, silently asking her what was wrong.
    “I was going to make a toast to the Duchessa di Parma, my very best friend,” she shouted over a new but similar-to-the-last song. “To my best friend leaving me here in dull old New York to go marry a real-life godforsaken prince in Italy.” Marietta sighed and her shoulders slumped. “But I don’t want to. Because that would mean this night is almost over, and tomorrow I lose my partner-in-crime.” A sudden sadness bloomed in my chest at her words. Then, when her eyes filled with tears, those words became a punch in the gut.
    Placing my glass on the table before us, I moved forward and put my hand on her arm. “Marietta, don’t get upset.”
    She put down her own drink and grabbed my hand. “I just don’t want to lose you.”
    My stomach rolled. “I know,” I said. Then I didn’t say anything else, but I could see Marietta register my unspoken words. I don’t want to go either.
    Keeping my hand in hers, I slumped back against the couch and let my eyes drift over the busy dance floor below. I watched the throng of Upper East Siders losing themselves in the music. A pang of fear swept through me.
    This really would be my last night in New York. In the morning, I would fly to Italy, where I would live from that day on.
    Marietta shuffled closer to me and cast me a watery smile. “How are you doing?” she asked as she squeezed my hand.
    “I’m okay. Just nervous, I guess.”
    Marietta nodded her head. “And your papa?”
    I sighed. “Ecstatic. Overjoyed that his precious daughter will be marrying the prince he chose for me as a child.” I felt a pang of guilt for speaking about him so negatively. “That was uncalled for,” I said. “You know as well as I do, Baroness von Todesco” —Marietta scowled playfully at my use of her title— “that we don’t really get a choice in whom we marry.” I leaned forward and picked up my champagne. I took a long swig, enjoying the feel of the bubbles traveling down my throat. I handed Marietta her glass and raised mine in the air. “To arranged marriages and duty over love!”
    Marietta laughed and clinked her glass with mine. “But seriously,” Marietta said, “are you okay? Truly okay?”
    I shrugged. “I honestly don’t know how to answer that, Etta. Am I okay with the arranged marriage? I suppose so. Am I okay with moving to Italy permanently? Not really. I love Italy—it’s my home, I was born there—but it’s not New York. Everyone I know is here in America.” Marietta’s eyes softened with sympathy. “And am I okay with marrying Zeno Savona? The infamous Playboy Prince of Toscana?” I took a deep breath. “I have no idea. I guess that will become apparent in the next three months.”
    “In your ‘courting period,’” Marietta said using air quotes, and snorted with laughter. “What a joke. What twenty-three-year-old woman and twenty-six-year-old man need a courting period?”
    I laughed at her sassy tone, but then soberly replied, “Ones who don’t know each other at all? Ones who have to see if they can stand each other’s company before sealing their marital fates forever?”
    Marietta shuffled closer. “You know as well as I do that you could hate this so-called prince, detest everything he is—and he you—and I’d still be your maid of honor at your wedding on New Year’s Eve.” She sputtered a laugh. “The very fact that the date has been set says it all. This marriage is happening.” Marietta held up her glass, got to her feet and, with arms spread wide, shouted, “Welcome to the life of the European blue bloods of the Upper East Side! Drowning in Prada and Gucci, dripping in diamonds, but having no free will to call our own!”
    I laughed, pulling her back down. She broke into hysterics as her ass hit the couch, spilling champagne all over the expensive upholstery. But our laughter waned as the house lights came on one by one. The last of the dance music drifted into silence, and the rich patrons of Manhattan’s most exclusive nightclub began making their way to their limos and town cars. It was three o’clock in the morning, and I had six hours left in the city I loved beyond measure.

    I frown, peering over at the boat in question, now even blurrier than before. “I didn’t notice anyone there.”

    “Not surprised. Come on. You need to go to bed.” His hand slides around my lower back and prods me toward shore.

    A rare defiant streak surges. I didn’t fly thousands of miles away from my overbearing mama only to be scolded and ordered around by a stranger. I jab his chest with my finger. “You can’t tell me what to do. You’re not the boss of me. The boss is the boss of me. And he can boss me.” I’m not sure that made much sense.

    “And who is he?” Amusement laces his tone.

    “I don’t know. Some arrogant big bad wolf billionaire who sleeps with Victoria’s Secret models and changes women like underwear. He sounds like a complete jerk. But you’re not him. You’re…” I’m leaning against his chest now. A broad, solid chest, his muscles hard against me. I reach up with the hand I used to poke him to touch the few weeks’ worth of growth covering his face, my fingertips scratching across the coarse hair. “A lumberjack.”

    “A lumberjack.”

    “Yes. With this beard and this,” I rub my hand over his flannel checkered jacket, sitting open, and then to the shirt beneath, reveling in the ridges of his stomach. “Definitely a lumberjack. Did they hire lumberjacks to cut wood for that giant fireplace in there? They’ve hired people for everything else. I mean, seriously, who comes up to Alaska to get their pubic area waxed and their hair colored? And yet there’s a full-service salon!”

    His hands have found my waist again. He takes several steps backward, pulling me along with him.

    But I dig my heels in. “I’m not going anywhere until I check the water for my glasses! I have a flashlight!” I yell, earning his shush.

    He heaves a sigh. “Will you let me take you back to your cabin immediately after?”

    “Once I do that, I will happily go to bed with you. Not with you. I’ll go to bed. I’m not going to bed with a lumberjack.” My tongue feels thick and slow as it trips over my rambling words.

    “Fine. But I’m holding on to you the entire time. The owner doesn’t need any of his employees drowning.”

    “Deal.”

    He leads me back to the edge and drops to his knees with me. “Sit your ass right down or you’ll end up pulling us both in.”

    “That’s no way to speak to a lady.”

    He snorts. “It is when she’s as stubborn as a mule and as drunk as an Irishman.”

    Nathan Rush is a small town man who has never dreamed of a bigger life.

    Until, that is, the only surviving heiress of America’s richest family lands on his doorstep. Nathan is the groundskeeper at Hollis House, the Valon family’s upstate New York mansion just outside of Harlin Falls, the quiet, sleepy town he was raised in. He’s an honest, hard-working man who wants nothing more than a beer and a hockey game on TV at the end of the night. Except, when the ice princess starts to melt, Nathan pictures his future in a way he never has before.

    Camille Valon’s life has taken place in the spotlight.

    Until, that is, her parents are murdered in a mysterious Christmas Day fire. Now all she wants is to flee the prying news cameras and slow-moving investigation. She’s an upper crust ice princess who is good at keeping everyone at arm’s length. Grief-stricken and still fearing for her life, Camille arrives at her family’s safe haven estate with secrets and a chip on her shoulder. What she didn’t count on was the kind, ridiculously attractive man who caters to her every need.

    As the months go by, and an impending threat grows closer to discovering Camille’s location, the line between employer and employee becomes dangerously blurred. Nathan and Camille could be each other’s saving graces, if only they’d put aside their visions of a perfect life and take the chance fate has put right in front of them.

    Author: Isabel Lucero

    Genre: Romantic Suspense

    Release Date: November 28

    Goodreads

    Synopsis

    The moment it happens, everything in me changes.

    Imagine somebody was able to fit inside of your body. Their arms are the same length as yours. You’re both the same height. Everything is exactly the same. Now imagine that person not being a person at all. That thing inside of you is a shadow. Darkness. A silhouette of you, only living on the inside of your body. It doesn’t have a conscious. It doesn’t have a heart. Nothing within that darkness is remotely human. Its only goal is to take over your body. It fights against your muscles. It tries breaking through the skin. It wants to replace you. That’s what it feels like when the darkness that lives inside me starts trying to get out.

    I feel it happening. The pressure builds. My skin prickles. And the only thing that tames it, getting it back to resting peacefully inside me, is to unleash it. I have to let it wreak havoc, and I quite enjoy the mayhem.

    Analeigh Price comes into my life and does the one thing I hate; question me about my past. She can pretend she wants to get to know me all she wants, but she’s not ready for the truth. I won’t become a better person for her, because I am who I am. She can’t fix me, because my wounds are unfixable.

    You see, I’m not like everybody else. Oh, no. I’m different. My humanity was stripped from me long ago, and those who are responsible are about to be paid a visit. You’ve never heard a story like mine, because I’m unlike anyone you’ve ever met. I’m no hero. I’m the guy you don’t want to piss off, because once the darkness within me is unleashed, it’ll be too late to get away.

    What’s my name? It’s Donovan. Donovan James. But the darkness is taking over, and it’s only good at one thing, so I must go.

    Excerpt

    I narrow my eyes at her. “How old are you?”
    “Old enough,” she counters.
    “I don’t like that answer,” I say, settling back into my truck, ready to drive off.
    “Wait, wait,” she says, putting her hand on the window frame. “If you’re gonna be a baby about it, geez. If I’m at college, I’m clearly at least eighteen. Which is legal, by the way.”
    “Eighteen is too young. Legal or not.”
    “Well, lucky for you, I’m not eighteen. I’m twenty. I’ll be twenty-one next month.”
    “Hmm,” I murmur. “Good for you.”
    “And you?” she asks, leaning in closer through the window with a flirtatious smile gracing her lips.
    “Twenty-four.”
    “See. That’s perfect! We can have fun together.”
    “Don’t you have somewhere to be?” I ask. “You were flying across the street like the cops were after you.”
    She laughs. “Well, if they were, wouldn’t you want to help me escape them? We’ve been in the road for five minutes. They could be coming any minute now,” she says, playfully widening her eyes in a panic.
    “I don’t need to be an accessory to anything, so no, I wouldn’t help.”
    “You’re no fun,” she says with a pout.
    “I told you.”
    “Come on,” she whines. “Take me somewhere.” She leans in and I find myself leaning closer to her. Her brown eyes watch mine, waiting for me to object, but I don’t. I feel her lips touch my neck, but barely. She’s just brushing them against my skin, and then she whispers into my ear. “Take me somewhere and you can take me however you like.” Her voice drops to a husky whisper and my cock responds. She licks and kisses my neck, her free hand running across my stomach and towards my jeans. “Don’t make me beg,” she breathes into my ear. Her hand cups my cock through my jeans, and she moans.
    “Get in,” I growl.
    She hurries around to the passenger side and climbs in, throwing her book and messenger bag to the floor board before scooting next to me. I drive off, needing to find somewhere to pull over, because I’m not taking her to my house, and I don’t feel like looking for a hotel room right now. Whatever we do will be in my truck, but I don’t think she’ll mind since she’s unbuttoning my jeans.
    “I want to taste you,” she says seductively. “Can I?” she asks, unzipping my zipper like she already knows I’m not going to stop her.
    I lift up, helping her pull my jeans down a little, and then she sticks her hand inside of my boxer-briefs, pulling my hard cock out through the slit in the front. She strokes it a few times, before lying across the seat and putting the tip in her mouth.
    “Fuck,” I groan, trying to concentrate on driving and getting us to a spot where I can park and not be disturbed.
    “Mmm,” she moans around me, taking me deeper.
    I pass a for sale sign and turn off onto a side street, hoping to find the empty house. When I do, I pull into the driveway and cut off the engine, hoping the neighbors don’t look out their windows and get suspicious.
    She releases my cock from her grip and sits up to start pulling her clothes off. First she removes the black V-neck shirt and then shimmies out of her tight, blue jeans and white panties. I slide over, away from the steering wheel, and remove my shoes, jeans, and underwear as fast as possible.
    “I don’t have a condom,” I manage to say as she begins to climb onto my lap.
    She reaches down to her bag and pulls a shiny square of foil out, holding it up with a grin on her face.
    “You have everything you need in there?” I ask, lifting a brow as she rips it open and pulls the colored condom out.
    “Mmhhmm,” she murmurs, placing it on my head and rolling it down over my shaft. I groan and throw my head back as she strokes me.

    Tabby Collins is an honorary Montgomery and the organizational mastermind behind Montgomery Inc., the family’s construction company. She loves her planners, friends, and a certain dark-haired man who’s never given her a second glance.

    Alex is slowly re-immersing himself back into the world, but the demons he faced before aren’t out of the picture, and he’ll have to learn to rely on others to make it out whole. When Alex discovers that Tabby’s life is in danger, he not only finds a way to help her but also learns the true woman behind the soft smiles he’s always seen. Their romance won’t be an easy one, but nothing this passionate and heart-pounding ever is.

    EXCERPT:

    The clock mocks me.

    As the minute hand ticks closer to eight in the evening, I wrack my brain to figure out if I got the time wrong. Maybe we picked two. Maybe he said ten. Maybe we’re meeting tomorrow.

    My chest twists with a desperate anxiety as I toy with the band on my watch.

    But as the fountains of Lincoln Center dance higher under the waning light, I’m sadly certain there was no error in communication.

    The only error was one of judgment.

    Mine.

    Thinking he’d show.

    Drawing a deep, frustrated breath, I peer at my watch once more, then raise my face, searching the crowds that wander past the circular aquatic display at Manhattan’s epicenter for the performing arts. This fountain is so romantic; that’s why we chose it as the place to meet again.

    One week later.

    Foolishly I hunt for the amber eyes and dark wavy hair, for the lean, tall frame, for that mischievous grin that melts me every time.

    I listen for the sound of him amidst the melody of voices, wishing to hear his rise above the others, calling my name, apologizing in that sexy accent of his for being late.

    My God, Gabriel’s accent was a recipe for making a young woman weak in the knees. That was what he had done to me. The man melted me when I first met him last month in Barcelona at the tail end of my summer of travels across Europe.

    When I close my eyes and float back in time, I hear that delicious voice, just a hint of gravel in his tone, and a whole fleet of butterflies chase each other in my belly at the resurgence of that faraway romantic dream.

    I open my eyes, trying to blink away the inconvenient intrusion of memory. I should go. It’s clear he’s not coming tonight.

    But, just in case I mixed up the times, maybe I’ll give him one more minute. One more look.

    One more scan of the crowd.

    I let the clock tick past eight.

    I still don’t see him.

    I’ve been here for more than two hours sitting on the black marble edge of the fountain. Scouring the corners of Lincoln Center. Peering left, then right down Columbus. Circling, like an animal at a zoo—pathetic modern-day female waiting for male to stay true to his word.

    About THE ONLY ONE:

    From the New York Times bestselling author of THE SEXY ONE comes a romance about fate and second chances.

    Let’s say there was this guy. And he gave you the most mind-blowing night of sex in your life. And you never saw him again.

    Until ten years later.

    Now, it turns out he’s the ONLY ONE in all of Manhattan whose restaurant is available for my charity’s event.

    The trouble is, he doesn’t recognize me.

    ***

    This woman I’m working with is so damn alluring. The first time I set eyes on her, I’m captivated and I can’t get her out of my mind. Even if it’s risky to tango with someone I’m working with, she’s a risk I’m willing to take.

    The trouble is, she won’t give me the time of day.

    But I’m determined to change that.

    Tori Rivera thinks Jamie McCade is rude, arrogant, and worst of all . . . the sexiest man she’s ever laid eyes on. His reputation as a player is almost as legendary as his surfing skills. No matter how her body heats up when he’s around, she’s determined not to be another meaningless hookup.

    Jamie McCade always gets what he wants. The sickest wave. The hottest women. And Tori, with her long legs and smart mouth, is definitely the hottest one. He knows Tori wants him-hell, most women do-but she won’t admit it. After months of chasing and one unforgettable kiss, it’s time for Jamie to raise the stakes.

    Jamie promises that soon Tori won’t just want him in her bed, she’ll be begging for it-and he might be right. Somehow he’s found the spot in her heart that makes her open up like never before. But with all she knows about his past, can she really trust what’s happening between them? Is Jamie playing for keeps or just playing to win?

    This book can be read as a stand-alone.
