RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW: Misadventures in Blue by Sierra Simone


Misadventures In Blue 
by USA Today bestselling author Sierra Simone

Genre: Contemporary Romance
#MisaventuresInBlue #SierraSimone #WaterhousePress #ReleaseBlitz

Synopsis

Senior Detective Cat Day has one hard and fast rule about dating: no cops. They live hard and die young—a truth she’s faced every day since her fiancĂ©’s tragic death several years ago. But when rookie Jace Sutton shows up to work the same burglary investigation, she feels desire she hasn’t felt in years.

Jace knows what he wants the minute Detective Day strolls onto his crime scene in heels and a pencil skirt tailored by God himself. He wants to thaw the legendary Ice Queen, and it only takes one hot, dirty night for Jace to realize he wants more. Much, much more.

But more is the last thing Cat wants from any cop—especially a playboy rookie like Jace. As the burglary investigation heats up and he repeatedly puts himself in danger, Cat must ask herself if Jace will be as reckless with her heart as he is with his life.


Caroline's Review

✮✮✮✮✮


Holy hotness, Batman! This story was sexually raw, intense, and heartfelt.

"It's something about this too-young-for-me rookie, with his earnest seriousness and intense eyes."

Catherine AKA Cat Day AKA Officer Ice Queen is 37, elegant, and tough. Ever since she lost her fiance, a fellow cop, in the line of duty, she's steered clear of relationships with fellow cops. In fact, she's pretty much closed off her heart to love. However, when she sets eyes on rookie, Jace Sutton, his sheer, hot presence is enough to thaw her icy demeanour. There is absolutely no denying the electric connection between them.

"The flare of ownership I began to feel was so powerful, so urgent, that I could barely breathe."

Jace Sutton is 24, ex-forces and has seen plenty worse in his former career. He recognises the haunted look in Cat's eyes. He also recognises the chemistry between them and has no issue about the age between them. However, can he get Cat to overcome her hang-ups and fears to give them a fair chance at something real and long-lasting.

"I look at you and I think you might be capable of breaking my heart."

Oh my god! This story was pacy and filthy almost from the beginning. I thrilled at the scorching sexual connection between Cat and Jace. He was so damn HAWT! He's big, powerful, and one hell of an alpha. On the one hand, I loved how he took command of Cat and made such a strong woman like her submit to him. I loved that he recognised her need to be dominated. On the other hand, I swooned at his tenderness and his softer feelings for her. His need to care for her and look after her. Yes, this book had all the sexy scenes but there was also some heart-clenching going on! For someone so young, he was wise beyond his years and I was rooting for him to win Cat over, all the way!

Gorgeous, super hot story!

COVER REVEAL: The Second We Met by Maya Hughes





BLURB


Dear Jerk Across the Street, sorry for accidentally walking in on you and catching an eyeful of your—equipment. And hard pass on the open invitation to join you in the shower “anytime”, A-hole. 

That’s the note I should’ve written. Instead I sent a pleasant and apologetic version. 

Had I known Phoenix “Nix” Russo would’ve been the neighbor from hell, I’d have told him right where he could shove my words. 

Nix is the big man on campus with everyone lined up at his games to make sure he knows it. Sure, he’s got piercing green eyes, abs that don’t quit and a smile that could set fire to a set of panties from a hundred yards away, but he’s also the biggest pain in my ass.

Dear Pink-Haired Menace, learn how to take a joke and stop being such a kill-joy...
Elle Masterson called the cops on one of my parties—again. My sweet talking usually gets me out of trouble, but this time it got me into a nice pair of silver handcuffs. Now I’m on a reputation rehab tour with a stop at a spring break community service project. 

Guess who’s my new boss? 

Now we’re shoulder to shoulder, sweaty, tired and…she’s not anything like I expected. There might just be a heart under that hardass exterior. She’s invading my dreams and I can’t shake the feeling she’s the key to unlocking a piece of me that I’ve hidden away. 

It’s only a matter of time until she finds out why I’m really here.

Maybe I can break through her walls and into her heart before that happens...one screw at a time.

COVER REVEAL: #FATE by Cambria Hebert


#FATE
Cambria Hebert
(GearShark, #6)
Publication date: November 4th 2019
Genres: M/M, Contemporary, Romance
What’s meant to be will always find a way.

Perfection isn’t an illusion.
I met it, held it in my hands.
But then it slipped right through.
Perfection isn’t an illusion.
It’s elusive, cleverly evasive, and, in many ways, a horrible tease.
I’m not a man to be toyed with.
Quiet, thoughtful, and even sometimes careful,
but never someone to taunt.
Even the most controlled men have a breaking point.
I just met mine.
Why mess with perfection?
You don’t.
Unless perfection messes with you.

RELEASE BLITZ: The Best Friend Hookup by Kylie King








My best friend is crazy.

She wants me to do things with her…in the bedroom.

The things she wants to do, wouldn’t be a part of our usual hangout, where we play video games, or stuff our mouths with extra cheesy pizza.

This is different. She wants me to teach her how to be on top, so she can hook up with a guy she’s always wanted to date.

Of course, I’m going to help my adorable, nerdy best friend Julia. I’m the best man for the job, and she trusts me with her life. Not only that, but I’ve been with plenty of women—enough to know how to show her the ropes.


Showing her what to do shouldn’t change anything between us…at least that’s what I think, until I realize that once she gets the hang of this, she’ll be on top of another guy.



AVAILABLE NOW













Kylie King is a soccer mom by day, and a writer of ridiculously smutty romances by night. She loves reading, swimming, and mixed drinks that includes lots of rum. 

All of her books are quick and hot, with over-the-top fantasies that probably shouldn't be taken too seriously.

I said I was better than them.
I wouldn’t fall for your charm, your arrogance, or how sexy you fill out that suit.
I wouldn’t fall for your deep brown eyes or the way that muscle moves in your square jaw when you’re pissed.

I said I could resist you.
I was wrong...

(BOSS OF ME is a STAND-ALONE workplace, military romance with a badass alpha boss and the feisty woman who steals and heals his heart. No cheating. No cliffhangers.)

BLOG TOUR: One Woman by Lisa Renee Jones





The second book in the dangerously sexy Naked Trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones 

Emma and Jax came together in the midst of secrets and lies, but in a castle in Maine, they seek passion and sanctuary. 
What they find is a mystery that could stretch beyond all their expectations. 
And what Emma finds is danger. 

One Woman begins where One Man ended, with Emma one step from death and Jax the only man who can save her.



Jax’s jaw tenses, he cuts his stare, and that says all I need to know. “What are we doing Jax?” I demand. “We’re poison to each other.” I turn away and charge toward the bedroom, and I don’t stop at the door. I already found my suitcase and took it to the bathroom. I had to brush my teeth because I imagined myself kissing Jax. I imagined all these wonderful things with him, but that can’t happen now. I hurry through the room, and I’ve made it halfway to the bathroom, just past the bed, when Jax catches my arm. Heat rushes up my arm, and it’s not all about anger. It’s about this man touching me. It’s about this man and how much I want him, how much I even feel as if want has transformed to need. I whirl around, intent to confront him, but I fail. He drags me against him, all those hard muscles absorbing all the softer parts of me, and the words linger on my tongue, but never leave my mouth. “What are we doing?” he demands, and he doesn’t give me time to reply. “This.” His mouth closes down on mine, and I try to fight, no, I tell myself to fight, to push back, to save myself before I go down and never find my way back up. But I don’t fight. I don’t even try to save myself. His mouth closes down on mine, and the taste of him, all man and demand, undoes me. I sink into his big, powerful body, as my tongue meets his. I’m all in, kissing him like there is no tomorrow, and maybe there isn’t, maybe there can’t be, but right now, right now, I reject that idea. I drink him in the way he’s drinking me in until his mouth is gone, his breath a warm whisper, as he says, “That. Over and over again, with no end I want to imagine. We’re not bad for each other. We’re not poison. Say it. We’re not poison.” But I can’t say it. How can I say what I’m not sure I believe?
