Take Two-Cover Reveal!!



Take Two by Heather M. Orgeron
Release Date: March 19, 2020

BLURB

Who says you can’t marry the same mistake twice?

Certainly not Nya Perez...because that’s precisely what she’s done.

Liam Watts is the bane of her existence.
Her first love. Father of her child. And breaker of her heart.

Oh, he’s also her ex-husband. Well, he was, anyway...right up til this morning, when she woke up beside him in a Vegas hotel room, sheathed in satin and tulle with a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach.

If it were just between the two of them, an annulment would be the obvious solution. After all, they wouldn’t be the first to marry and divorce at the little white chapel in the span of twenty-four hours.

But their daughter’s greatest wish has just been granted, and if there’s one heart Nya wants to protect more than her own, it’s Ellie’s.

So, she promises to give it six months.

There’s no way she’ll be swayed by his thick southern drawl, those well-defined abs, or that annoyingly delectable scruff lining his cheeks.

Nope. She’s got it all under control. Six months of playing house, then everything can go back to the way it was before.

But first she’ll have to muddle through marriage with Liam—take two.

Dirty Prince- Review!!!

Dirty Prince by V. Darling
Series: Scarsdale Royals #1
Genre: High School Bully Romance
Release Date: March 12, 2020


BLURB

There’s only one thing you need to know about Scarsdale High.
The Royals rule here.

We say when to jump and how high, and the rest follow like lemmings because to do otherwise is social suicide.

As cheer captain, I have everything I’ve ever wanted, including Scarsdale’s star quarterback, Navrin Fox.

There’s just one problem … his twin brother.

Lev Fox knows exactly how to push my buttons—he’s been doing it since childhood, after all—but when I give into my baser instincts and let the boy I hate best me in a battle of wills, it’s not only my reputation as Queen Bee on the line, it’s my heart too.

Secrets, betrayal, and lies—that’s what we Royals do best.
But no one ever said anything about love.

My Review:My Rating: 4.5 Stars



Lev and Scout have known each other since they were about 8 years old. Lev and Scout have always bickered  and pushed each other's buttons, that hasn't changed since they've grown up. It's just gotten worse, especially with Scout dating Lev's twin brother Navrin. More buttons are pushed and finally all that hate turns into chemistry that's too hard for Lev or Scout to deny anymore. Afterall, there's a thin line between love and hate.

I absolutely loved Lev and how he does what he thinks is the right thing, even though it's not always the things he should do. Scout's inner turmoil is realistic and explained well about the choices she makes. I was glad this book was written in dual P.O.V because otherwise we would not understand the characters like we do.  While the main characters were great I really enjoyed the other "royals" and can't wait to read their stories. This is an author I will keep requesting arcs from because the stories are well written.

EXCERPTS

#1

         I lean against the opposite wall and watch her as she sips her coffee and takes several bites out of her bagel—probably gluten-free because Scout Taylor would never eat carbs. As if she can sense me, she turns and scowls, ripping the earbuds from her ears. “Jesus, Lev. I knew you were pathetic, but I never took you for a stalker.”
         
         I give her a jaded smile and slowly, indolently, roll my gaze up her tanned legs. “I’d rather slit my goddamn throat than have to watch you all day.”
             
         “Knives are in the top drawer; knock yourself out.” She picks up her plate and tosses the rest of her bagel in the trash. “Just don’t spill your blood or entrails on the rug. You know how Ebba gets about stubborn stains.”
           
          “Oh, Cub. I always knew you were sociopath.”
           
           “Takes one to know one,” she chirps in that saccharine-sweet voice.
             
            If only every cell in her tight little body wasn’t dripping with venom.


#2

        “You’re sick. You know that?” But even as I say it, I know we’re both infected, tainted, ailing from the same illness, and neither one of us will do anything to cure it. There is no cure for a love as vicious and cruel as this. There’s only embracing what we are, what we have, and what we’ll do to one another. What we’ll do to see each other fall.
           
         “I want you to leave me alone.” I pant as his hands work my pussy faster and his cock pumps into my ass harder.
             
          “I don’t think that’s true,” he whispers.
             
            I gasp, struggling for breath as I climb closer to climax. “I hate you so much it hurts.”
             
            “I know.” He bites down on my shoulder. The way a beast might bite the neck of his consort as he fucks her and claims her as his.
           
              I always thought of Lev as a big bad wolf so in love with his own solitude—angry and untouchable—but he’s not. He’s a fox, sly and cunning, determined to shred, and tear until there is nothing left.
           
             He groans as he spills inside me, and the sensations push me over the edge. My body clenches tight around him, riding him, milking him, and all the while he fucks me harder through my orgasm.
             
            When the only sound in the room is our labored breaths, and the sweat cools on our bodies, he releases my shoulder and smiles. “The feeling is fucking mutual, Cub.”

#3

           I’ve done everything I could to ruin you, to hurt you, and I never wanted that. I never wanted anything but for you to be happy … just not happy with him. I wanted you for myself. I wanted you happy with me.”
             
           “I am happy with you,” I sob, and the irony isn’t lost on me.
             
            He takes my chin in his thumb and forefinger and tilts it up to him. “Happiness isn’t ruin, Cub. I’ve destroyed you. I got what I wanted, and it wasn’t what I wanted at all. If you love me, if you ever loved me, you’ll let me go.”
           
             I shake my head, but I know that steely determination in his eyes. I’ve seen it before too many times to count. Lev kisses my forehead, my nose, and finally, my lips. I grab onto his shirt and pull him closer. I try to pull him down on me, I try to hold on for dear life, because my world is spinning out of control and Lev Fox is the only thing worth holding onto.

#4

          “Fuck you, Lev.”
             
           “Not even if you begged me.” I chuckle quietly and wrap my arm around her waist, dragging her closer, so she’s practically on my lap. Her stool scrapes along the floor, but the room is dark, so no one notices as she squirms against me. “And you would beg, like you never have before. All. Night. Long.”


#5

         His hand snakes under my skirt and yanks my panties aside. He doesn’t touch my clit. This isn’t about pleasure; it’s about ownership.
             
         He slides two fingers along my slit, and bares his teeth in a Fox smile when he finds my wetness. He dips inside, hard and rough, claiming my pussy as his once more. “I knew you’d be soaking for me. Were you thinking of me when he shoved his fingers inside you, Cub? Did you think of my mouth on your cunt when he was licking your clit? Did you imagine my face when you glanced down and saw him between your pretty little thighs?”
             
          “Fuck … you,” I pant, wishing he didn’t know how to make me scream from his touch alone, wishing I didn’t love that fact.
           
             “Well, since you asked so nicely.”
             
              The sharp zing of his zipper echoes through the silent bathroom. I shiver in anticipation.

Taming Hollywood’s Baddest Boy-Release Blitz!!



BLURB:

Do people say they hate someone’s guts so that they can still fall stupidly, head-over-heels in love with the other parts?

Asking for a friend.

Taming Hollywood’s Baddest Boy, an all-new hilarious enemies to lovers standalone from New York Times bestselling author Max Monroe, is available now!

Okay, fine. I’m not asking for a friend.

I’m asking for me—and I’m begging you to tell me that the practice of falling in love with your should-be-enemy is common.

Please tell me that I’m not the only person to track down a guy—who used to be Hollywood’s baddest bad boy before he left LA for good—at his off-the-grid cabin in

Alaska, show up unannounced, and find him gloriously naked.

This probably happens all the time…right?

Tell me I’m not alone in my stupidity—that I’m not the only woman who would fall for gorgeous blue eyes and a sexy devilish smirk, even if they belong to a broody, mysterious jerk.

Please. Please. Please. Tell me I’m not alone in this.

For the love of everything, I need all the supportive girl power I can get if I’m going to convince Luca Weaver to come back to Hollywood—otherwise known as the place he hates so much that he ghosted Oscar-level success and escaped to no-man’s-land for the last eight years just to avoid it.

Yeah, don’t worry—that smoke you’re smelling isn’t your house catching fire as you read this…it’s just my career and what was previously known as my heart going up in flames.

Gah. Is it just me, or am I totally, completely, and utterly screwed?

Easy to Fall- Sneak Peek!!

Easy to Fall, the epic conclusion to the heart-wrenching, edge-of-your-seat gripping Hard to Love series by USA Today bestselling author Willow Winters is releasing March 24th, and we have the first peek!

BLURB:

With her I was always on the highest high. That's why it was so easy to fall.

I never stood a chance without her. The two of us were made for one another. It's as simple as that. The world could try to rip us apart, but it would fail. Until this.
She told me once, love isn't enough. I never would have believed it ... until now. Neither of us could have prepared for this.

I won't stop fighting. Not until the very end.

Sneak Peek:

I love him with all my heart.

Every piece of it beats for him.

My hands tremble as I undress, taking more time than it should and I know that, but I can’t stop picturing him there, his shirt unbuttoned at the collar, his broad shoulders hunched over with a dejected look on his face.

I’ll never unsee that look in his eyes, like he was questioning if he still had me, if I was still his, and desperately needed to know.

Because he wants me still. He loves me still.

And I’ve never needed to feel that more than I need it now.

The door behind me creaks open just as I unhook my bra. It hits the floor just as I spin to face him and before I can move or speak, he’s almost on me, closing the distance between us in three broad steps.

His strong arms wrap around me as he gathers me up, capturing my squeal of surprise with his lips in a kiss. I can’t hold him close enough as my arms wrap around his broad shoulders. They only stay there for a fraction of a second before I tear at his shirt, needing it off and desperately needing his skin against mine.

I’ve never felt so close to him, yet so far apart at the same time.

I need more of him and all of him. I want him to surround me and consume me until I am nothing but his. Protected and loved and cherished.

My kisses devour his, but somehow he does just the same to me.

Although it all feels reckless and desperate, he lowers me to the bed as if he has full control. Of course he does; he is so much stronger than I am.

The thought reminds me to tear at his clothes, a button popping off as I do and neither of us care.

In a single motion, Seth parts from my embrace, removing his shirt with one hand over his head and tossing it somewhere behind me.

BLURB:

The enemy of my enemy is my friend…

I never thought my father would ask this of me, to become the second generation at Eagle Elite University, to rule with an iron fist, and to take care of anyone who gets in our way.
But ever since the incident.
Ever since Him.

There’s been a war in our little clique.
After all, a house divided cannot stand.
He’s the problem, not me.

The second worse thing?
Fall in love with your best friend.

Enemy.
