Release Day: The Pact by Karina Halle

Image
* The Pact is a standalone, contemporary adult romance* It all started with a pinky swear… Linden McGregor is tall, rugged, and gunslinger handsome; a helicopter pilot with a Scottish brogue and charm to spare. He’s also one of Stephanie Robson’s best friends and has fit into that box for as long as she’s known him. Beautiful, funny and an ambitious businesswoman (with one hell of an ass), Stephanie Robson is one of Linden McGregor’s best friends and has fit into that box for as long as he’s known her. But some relationships can’t be boxed, can’t be classified, can’t be tamed. Back in their mid-twenties and tired of the competitive hit-or-miss dating scene of San Francisco, Steph and Linden made a pact to marry each other if neither one of them are in a serious relationship by the time they hit thirty. It sounds like fun and games but as the years to thirty tick past and lovers come and go out of their lives, the pact becomes larger than life. S...

The Poet's Wife by Rebecca Stonehill

Image
Family sagas sometimes leave me feeling bitter sweet but it is combined with such pleasant weariness that I keep devouring more. The Poet’s Wife brings us to the world of Granada, Spain in the 1920s and onwards to the heart of Fidel Castro’s regime where a family villa, Carmen de las Estrellas, and its residents bore the earlier happy days of freedom and later on the ravages of civil war. It seemed quite a minuscule spot, spanning almost fifty years, in that period of Spanish history but a minuscule window worth peeping into. I am not certain I have read much books related to this turbulent time in Spain for most books easily found around bear stories of the Nazi regime so this is a novel read for me. From mother to daughter to granddaughter; three generations of women giving voice to their own views and experiences amidst the turmoil. Every chapter is emotional; in the beginning palpable and tentative till you reach the middle and from thereon it becomes a tumble, waves ...

Image
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby has been sitting on a secret, and we get to share it with you today! We think all of her readers across the board will be thrilled to hear what's coming next! Check out what Kristen has to say about the upcoming plans...   Dear readers,     As you know, the With Me In Seattle Series came to a close earlier this month with the eighth and final installment, FOREVER WITH ME . I've been steadfast in my decision that there would be no further stories from the series, no spin-offs, nothing more. In my mind, it was complete. And I still feel that the Montgomery/Williams families are complete, and I maintain that I'm happy with their happy-ever-afters.  But, I've also heard you when you've said that Asher, Matt Montgomery's partner in TIED WITH ME , deserves to have a happily ever after for himself and his daughter Casey. So, when the lovely ladies from 1001 Dark Nights asked me to participate ...

Blog Tour: Seducing the Princess by Jen McLaughlin (Diane Alberts)

Image
A sexy category romance from Entangled's Brazen imprint... He'll give her exactly what she needs… Protecting a princess is not what former marine Gordon Waybrook signed up for when he joined the Shillings Agency. But instead of the spoiled, regal little creature he expects, Isabelle VanGuard is a fiery, sexy-as hell woman who's been denied what she needs for too long. And he's just the man to break through her frozen public facade and give it to her. When she's with Gordon, all Isabelle can think about is pleasure. Their blistering chemistry is immediate and intense, but volatile. In fact, the only thing they agree on is that their one night together is just that—one night. Even after it becomes more. But tempers and temptation can't disguise reality. Isabelle is a princess, and a hot, hard, and tattooed bodyguard isn't the Prince Charming her country expects…even if he's exactly what she needs.

The Emerald Comb by Kathleen McGurl

Old letters and a lost comb, a crumbling old home and family secrets; it seems The Emerald Comb is a typical recipe for a modern day English mystery. Just as anyone fond of English mysteries, I was drawn like a moth to a flame. Katie, obsessed with her lineage, spends a lot of time tracing her ancestors, the St. Clairs much to her husband's disdain. When she steps into Kingsley House, the old residence of the St. Clairs, buried secrets of the family starts to unfold and it all becomes even more muddled for Katie. Who was the owner of the emerald comb? Which part of the family history does it come in?
