Cover Reveal Taken Love by K.C. Royale

COVER REVEAL BLITZ

Taken Love

by KC Royale

Your first crush isn't normally the man who ends up dating your best friend, nor is he the man you end up wanting to marry. But my inexperience on how to handle such a strong reaction to one guy nearly cost me everything back then. They say you can't control when you first fall in love or who you fall in love with. So when I found myself in love for the first time at seventeen, it was a bit shocking. Not for the reasons you think, but then again, maybe it was.

His name was Johnathan Pierce, the one who drove me insane with lust, and frustrated me to no end. How could I not fall for him? How could any girl refuse his green eyes, experienced touch and intoxicating words? I knew that he was no longer the seventeen year old boy who had taken me for the ride of my life, he was a man now. It's been six years since my heart was taken by Johnathan, a man who was now a CEO of a billion dollar empire. A man who has taken all that I had to give, and hurt me in the worst way imaginable, causing me to give up everything and run away. The indescribable pain I felt has consumed me for six long years, but now the time has come for me to return home. Home, where it all started for a girl name Kathleen Toth-Chamberlin. Every story has a beginning... and an end.

COVER REVEAL

Bain (An Undefeated Streak Novel)

Author: A.L. Wood

BAIN Synopsis

Raised in an environment that exuded love, Bain couldn't understand why he felt so empty inside.

He had it all- a financially stable, successful career and the overwhelming support of his loved ones.

She had gotten this far on her own...why accept a strangers obvious charity?

Bain wasn't trying to save her, nor was he donating his time freely.

Has Bain finally found his match in the ring of life?

Can Rumer crush his undefeated streak?

Sneak Peek of BAIN

Prologue

An inkling, that’s how it always starts. Something that can’t be seen, only felt, hardens into knots in your gut. Catching you off guard, unaware as to why you feel that way. You start questioning everything around you and wondering what’s going to go off like a bomb, because this feeling always comes back to something bad. I couldn’t have predicted that the something bad was going to be horrific, no one could have known.

Yes, the possibilities were endless as to what could have caused the feeling of my stomach sinking, the nausea threatening to exhale what I ate earlier for lunch. I didn’t expect a phone call as I stood in line at airport security, to change my life forever. To cause irreversible damage.

“Lawson, what’s up?”

“You need to meet me at your place, immediately.” I hear Lawson say over the line in a haunting tone.

“You know I can’t, I’m headed to Vegas. Remember, the meeting you sat up?”

“Bain that can wait, this cant. Please, I can’t explain over the phone.”

Something about Lawson’s tone told me I shouldn’t argue, that he needed me to just shut my mouth and do as he asked. He wouldn’t have called me without reason.

Even while running out of the airport and hailing a cab, my baggage in hand, did I not recognize the sickening twist of my stomach to be a sign of what was about to come.

Tossing money to the cab driver I haul ass into Sara’s and my apartment. The door opens as I approach it, Lawson’s face greeting me. His eyes drawn down, looking away from me.

It’s bad.

I know it is.

“Tell me.”

His eyes meet mine, and he breaks. Fucking folds right in half, his weight too much to hold up underneath the stress of whatever it is he has to tell me.

My gut. The feeling.

This is why. This moment right here, it’s going to define my life.

“There’s been an accident…We need to get to hospital. I’m driving us.”

Sara.

Samantha.

My world. My life. The reason I’m doing what I do with such devotion.

“What?” I pause, my thoughts leaving me. I stumble back, falling on my ass. On my front porch. I just…this can’t be real.

This isn’t real.

It’s just a horrible nightmare that I’m bound to wake up from at any minute.

No.

“Bain, get in my truck. Now.” Lawson says with renewed strength.

I stare at him, one million questions on the tip of my tongue.

My 4 Star Review

Relent (Sydney Storm MC, #1)

by Nina Levine

Relent by Nina Levine

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was graciously provided and Arc copy of Relent for an honest review. I really enjoyed Evie and Kick's story.
Kick and Evie have pretty much grown up together. There parents was the best of friends. Until the unthinkable happened, which split the families apart. With their family torn apart Kick and Evie find themselves growing closer together. But that soon ended when Kick joins the Club. He is convinced that Evie deserves better and leaves. Due to unfortunate circumstances three years later they are brought Face to Face.

I love a good MC read, and this was a great story.. These two have a unconditional love for each other, their chemistry amazing you can not help being drawn to them.. Their wasn't a lot of the usual drama in this read, but you get so wrapped up in the love for these two you wont miss it..

Title: SCORCH (Delirious, #3)

Author: Clarissa Wild

Genre: Dark Erotic Romance

Release Date: March 3, 2015

Blurb

Sweet revenge keeps her alive … and drives her to kill. I am the forgotten one, the girl who was left for dead. In this mental hospital I call prison I plot my revenge. I remember everything. Their faces. Their touch. Even their smell. What they did to me was beyond cruel. I’m going to return the favor. In here I survive by using someone just as they used me. One of them wants to claim me as his own. A man without mercy, without a conscience, craving the wickedness inside me. But I won’t be a puppet for his desires. I will play his strings like a puppeteer and use him to escape. And when I do … I will kill them all. This is Ashley's story and the final book in the Delirious Series. This is a full-length novel. These books should be read in order. WARNING: This book contains very disturbing situations, strong language, dubious consent, and graphic violence.

Excerpt

I stomp on his balls so hard he squeals like a pig. “Aw.” I laugh out loud. “Look at you, screaming like a little girl.” “Please, stop. Don’t do this,” he grunts, heaving. “Why would I? You never did.” I lean in, grab him by the hair, and pull back. “All you fuckers are the same, thinking you can get away with stealing someone’s innocence.” “I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” he sputters over and over again. “You should have thought of that before you jingled your balls, dude.” “I can’t change the past, but I am sorry. I’m so sorry …” he whimpers. “Stop. You’re pathetic, but it won’t make me go easy on you. So just stop the crying. It doesn’t work on me.” “Please.” Suddenly, he grabs my hand. “I’ll do anything. It doesn’t have to be like this. I can change it all.” I jerk my hand free. “No, you can’t. It’s too late for any of that.” I grab my bag and start rummaging through it, but he tries to scramble up and leave. As I finally find what I’m looking for, a pair of cuffs and a stapler, I walk toward him and kick him in the back. I hear something snap, and a god-awful sound explodes from his mouth. He falls to the ground with a flop, screaming his lungs out. “Whoops.” I laugh. “I guess you don’t like Brokeback Mountain. The mountain being me, in this case. Television ain’t all that, now is it?” He cries out as I haul him back to the couch and cuff him to the heater. His hand is so close he screams even more. “Burn, motherfucker,” I say, chuckling to myself. “Please!” he begs. “Please, end your life quicker?” I ask, leaning in with raised brows. He nods quickly, trembling in place. I shake my head. “No.” “Yes,” he pleads. “No.” I frown. “But I guess you don’t understand that word, now do you?” He shakes his head even more so. I shrug. “Oh well, it’s time for you to learn what it means when you don’t listen and use someone for your own pleasure.” I place the stapler on the table and search through my bag until I find a pair of scissors, which are so sharp the blade cuts me when I reach for it. His eyes almost bulge out of his head as he sees me grab all these tools. I smile at him, fascinated by the decline of his sanity. Or mine. I’m not sure.

Christy's Review ✰ ✰ Descent From Grace-A Luxe Novel by H.Q. Frost

✰ ✰ Descent From Grace- A Luxe Novel ✰ ✰

✰ ✰ by Author H.Q. Frost ✰ ✰

http://radicalreadsbook.blogspot.com/2015/03/christys-review-descent-from-grace-luxe.html

Synopsis

This novella follows the aftermath from the novel Destructive Gods and explores the descent from the bliss the Caribbean left our main characters in. Ready to plan out an unconventional future, Ian starts rushing a unfeasible destiny that not even Lily can see.
Lily's unexpected moodiness brings about more questions than answers for everyone and Ian begins to see his prospects slipping away. When questions are answered, the results promise devastation, plummeting them both from grace.
Life at Luxe begins to pick up for Lily, introducing her to a world she'd never imagined. When a new, high profile client suddenly starts offering her more than money, she's left denying feelings that are more than she bargained for when starting her job as an escort.

This work of fiction is intended for a mature audience only. Do not purchase if descriptive sexual situations, explicit language, and mature circumstances offends you.

My 5 Star Review: Descent From Grace

A Luxe Novel by H.Q. Frost

Descent From Grace- A Luxe Novel (Book 1.5)

Descent From Grace- A Luxe Novel by H.Q. Frost
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Unbelievably HOT STARS..
I was lucky enough to receive an ARC copy of Descent From Grace (A Luxe Novel)by author HQ Frost I fell in head over heals for Ian and Lilith and their completely messed up lives in Destructive God. I sat not so patiently waiting with a twitching foot wondering what these two had in store for us. Let me just say this you will not be disappointed..

I loved every twisted minute of Descent From Grace. HQ Frost is absolutely amazing.. It is so refreshing to read something that's not the same old thing. There is no predicting what will happen next. Because you just don't know and that makes it all the more thrilling.

We get to meet some new people in Descent from Grace. The hot shot tattooed attorney Justin whom I have developed a secret crush on. "Maybe more than a crush" I love his character. Justin has weaseled his way in to being one of my favorite characters in this series..

Ian, I love him , but I want to just knock him upside the head sometimes for being the fool he is. Same for Lilith for putting up with it and agree to his arrangement.

The hot cop Shaun is fixing to come to the states to visit Lilith and Ian is not happy about it at all, but not much he can say..

Karen Ian's girlfriend is still a pain in the butt, but Ian still feels some sort of misplaced love for her.

If you are looking for Hearts and Flowers this is not the book for you if you thrive for that Happy Ever After it might not be the one you want.. This is Twisted AT IT'S BEST... If you are a fan of Ker Dukey and DH Sidebottom, Ella James, Clarisse Wild then you will fall in love with HQ Frost as well.....

My 5 Star Review:

Destructive Gods-A Luxe Novel by H.Q. Frost

Destructive Gods-A Luxe Novel by H.Q. Frost
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bravo *****
What a great Debut novel by H.q Frost. Is was absolutely fabulous. This story sucks you right in, it was so much more than I expected.

What I loved the most about this book is you get to see things through all the characters eyes. You know what all party's involved are thinking, and going through, and yet your still on the edge of your seat wondering what is going to happen next.
Destructive Gods is most definitely a page turner. I could not put it down. I absolutely loved this book !

Lilith has not had an easy life. Tragedy started when her mom ran off. Her father became an alcoholic, then liver cancer took over.
Lilith is young, beautiful, quite, somewhat shy, reserved, her clothes are outdated, she wears no make up and very inexperienced and naïve when it comes to men, sex or the real world.

Sloan (Lilith boyfriend) is much older, manipulating, very controlling, demanding, and treats Lilith like a child.
Lilith moved in with Sloan little over 10 months ago. They got together shortly after she started working part time for him while going to school. He is her first and only boyfriend she has ever had and She loves him because he takes care of her in a fatherly way. For Sloan he just wants complete control over her. What she wares, what she eats, when she goes to bed he even tucks her in. Lilith soon realizes she loves Sloan but has never been in love with him. She sees him more of a father figure than a boyfriend.

Excerpts ~ Sloan
He cautiously approached her desk, planning his words carefully. “Sweetheart, I don’t know what it is, but since last night you’ve been divergent.” He knelt at her side and placed his hand gingerly on her leg. “You just sexually attacked me while we kneeled before your desk. Is there something upsetting you?” Those words turned her stomach: ‘sexually attacked’. Lacking vivaciousness in a relationship hardly gave just cause to calling her attempt at a spark a sexual attack. “Maybe it’s my time of the month.” The sweetest, most fake tone she could muster backed her words, and her blank stare settled on her boyfriend’s face. “I’m sorry I’ve been acting so strangely.” That was the second she realized she was never in love with him. She loved him because he took care of her in a sick, fatherly type of way, showing some semblance of love for her. But in love? The excited butterflies and nervous giggles; she’d never experienced that for Sloan. “Would you like to go home and take a rest?”

Ian is a is rich, good looking and is currently in a relationship with Karen who is constantly screaming suicide for attention. They have a history together and Ian fears change, even though he is pretty sure she is cheating.
He has an older twin sister who I absolutely love. She is fun, witty and let a little on the wild side.

You can definitely feel the connection between Lilith and Ian. It's there it's strong and it's hot as hell !!! The first time Lilith see Ian she feels drawn to him. He awakens every part of her.
Ian feels this connection to her he can not explain he has never felt this way before. The magnetic pull is just to great to try and fight.

Meeting Ian completely changes her life. She changed they way she dresses, the way she talks, she is doing things she never dreamed she would do. She finds herself falling in love with Ian, but afraid of the complications change will bring. Ian loves her too but he is not willing to admit it to her or leave his girlfriend because Karen is a safe bet. He does not want to be alone. He is afraid of the love he has for Lilith. She has the ability to destroy him.

Excerpts Ian
And why the fuck can’t I just break up with Karen? I suppose it’s the fear that Lily and I won’t work out, but I’d pretty much do anything for that girl. I just don’t think the feelings are mutual. I know she likes me, but I think she’s starting to see she likes a lot of things, and I only introduced her to them. You’re only in school with your teacher for nine months and then you move on. That’ll be the relationship we have. I glance up and see her sleeping on the couch with her hands tucked to her cheek and her lips parted only a little, showing she’s at peace in drunken slumber. I want to sit by her side and stare at her while caressing her silky skin until she wakes up. I know it’s fucking weird, and I’ve never done that before, but this girl is like watching a mythological creature. Yes, I’m comparing her to a fucking unicorn. I think I’m going insane thanks to this girl.

Ian and Lilith will take you on an adventure full of love, lust, laughter and heartache.
This Is A Must Read !!!
