SHE KNOWS BETTER THAN TO SAY “I DO”

After a humiliating end to her engagement, investment banker Sidney Sinclair is done with commitment-phobic men. But when her sister winds up engaged after a whirlwind courtship, she’s thrown in to close contact with exactly the kind of sexy playboy she wants to avoid—the gorgeous best man. She’s stuck with him, for better or worse, until her sister walks down the aisle, but that doesn’t mean she has to give in to his smooth advances, no matter how tempting they are…

BUT HE MAKES IT HARD TO SAY “I DON’T”

Special Agent Vaughn Roberts always gets his man on the job and his woman in bed. So Sidney’s refusal to fall for his charms only makes him more determined to win over the cool and confident redhead. Only what starts out as a battle of wills ends up as a serious play for her heart. Because the one woman who refuses to be caught may be the only one Vaughn can’t live without…

~~~~~

Am I allowed to say that Julie James is one of my absolute favorite romance authors...ok, well I said it, and I truly mean it.  Every single one of her romances are just the perfect mix of Sweet and Sexy and just plain ole' GOOD!!

IT HAPPENED ONE WEDDING sucked me in from page one, and never let go!  Sidney Sinclair is a heroine that I will remember for a long long time.  She was strong, sarcastic, snarky and hysterical...I loved her...and she was the perfect pick for our boy Vaughn Roberts...or Special Agent Vaughn Roberts.

As always, Julie James does what she does best, gives us a romance worth the wait!  I just loved the whole story, from Meet "Not so Cute" to every time Vaughn and Sidney were in the same room together and the chemistry was FLYING off the pages!  And the sex...oh mama...Vaughn Roberts is like Milk...he does a body GOOD!!

Highly recommended read and a Top Tasty Read of 2014!

She might look like an angel...

The moment orphaned American heiress Titania “Tansy” Danforth arrives on English shores she cuts a swath through Sussex, enslaving hearts and stealing beaux. She knows she's destined for a spectacular titled marriage—but the only man who fascinates her couldn't be more infamous...or less interested.

...but it takes a devil to know one...

A hardened veteran of war, inveterate rogue Ian Eversea keeps women enthralled, his heart guarded and his options open: why should he succumb to the shackles of marriage when devastating good looks and Eversea charm make seduction so easy?

...and Heaven has never been hotter.

When Ian is forced to call her on her game, he never dreams the unmasked Tansy—vulnerable, brave, achingly sensual—will tempt him beyond endurance. And fight as he will, this notorious bachelor who stood down enemies on a battlefield might finally surrender his heart...and be brought to his knees by love.

~~~~~

Welcome Julie Ann Long...

One of the best parts of writing an ongoing, connected series is that I get to watch (more specifically, I get to make) my characters mature, evolve (more often than not, against their wills, especially the men) and ultimately fall in love. (Falling in love is what usually makes them evolve, of course.) 

And nothing is more delicious than taking an unrepentant, set-in-his-ways rogue like Ian Eversea—who readers first met meet in THE PERILS OF PLEASURE as his brother is about to go to the gallows, and then spend a little more quality time with, if you will, in WHAT I DID FOR A DUKE when he's ushered out a window at midnight at gunpoint by the titular duke—and shaking his world hard like a snow globe. Take that, Ian! When everything settles again in Ian's snow glob, his life will never be the same.

When the series begins, we know a few things about Ian. He's passionately loyal to his family: In THE PERILS OF PLEASURE (the first Pennyroyal Green series book), he's been kind enough to frame a broadsheet depicting his brother Colin (who's been sentenced to hang) as a devil, complete with majestic horns. It's their way of staring down doom with courage, insouciance and humor. He'd gladly have gone to the gallows in Colin's stead.

And we already discussed how his midnight foray through the window of the duke's fiancee set in motion the story in WHAT I DID FOR A DUKE. He inadvertently fomented a happy ending for his sister Genevieve and the Duke, but he also rather cemented his reputation as a rake, and earned himself an enemy in the Duke of Falconbridge.

BETWEEN THE DEVIL AND IAN EVERSEA opens, he's still a gorgeous, cheerfully jaded bed-hopper, maintaining his policy of never staying an entire night with a woman, and he still has no intention of getting leg-shackled. He loves his family and cares about the people who have comprised his daily life for decades—people like Ned and Polly Hawthorne of the Pig & Thistle pub, the villagers of Pennyroyal Green. But bed-hopping not enough anymore: he has a plan to dodge his mother's meaningful looks and his brothers' irritating matrimonial bliss by embarking on a bit of world travel, in the hope he can outrun the restlessness that has dogged him since he returned from the war.

He's absolutely certain of what he wants. And it's freedom, movement, and a variety of women.

And that's when I create a little blizzard in his snow globe. And by “blizzard” I mean “Miss Titania Danforth.”

Tansy Danforth at first seems like everything Ian finds dull—too young, too innocent, a blusher, an American. But it takes the element of surprise to capture jaded Ian's attention, and when Tansy creates an uproar by blithely collecting hearts all over Sussex, he begins to suspect she's not what she seems. And when he calls her on her game, to his amazement she calls him on his. Seems it takes a rogue to know one. And the fact that he can recognize her vulnerabilities makes her realize that he has vulnerabilities of his own, stemming from, like hers, losses and upheavals, from things they hide from others but can't hide from each other, since they see life through the same lens.

And suddenly Ian finds a woman who doesn't bore him. A woman he doesn't want to leave. A woman who makes him want to be a different and better man.

He doesn't know it yet, but after I shake his life up, it will be soooo much better, if nothing at all like what he envisioned for himself. (I couldn't bear to torture my characters for VERY long. Just long enough to entertain all of us.)

He may not get what he thinks he wants...but by the end of the story, he'll definitely get what he needs.

Choices Are Easy When You Have Nothing Left To Lose

Kennedy O’Connell had all the happiness she’d ever dreamed—until someone stole it away. Now on the run for her life, she has a choice to make—disappear forever or make those responsible pay. Her choice is easy.

Two men want to help her, each with their own agenda.

Detective Nick Gallagher is accustomed to pursuing killers within the law. Targeted for death, his life turned inside out, Nick vows to bring down those responsible, no matter the cost. But the beautiful and innocent Kennedy O’Connell brings out every protective instinct. Putting aside his own need for vengeance, he’ll do whatever is necessary to keep her safe and help her achieve her goals.

Billionaire philanthropist Grey Justice has a mission, too. Dubbed the ‘White Knight’ of those in need of a champion, few people are aware of his dark side. Having seen and experienced injustice—Grey knows its bitter taste. Gaining justice for those who have been wronged is a small price to pay for a man’s humanity.

With the help of a surprising accomplice, the three embark on a dangerous game of cat and mouse. The stage is set, the players are ready…the game is on. But someone is playing with another set of rules and survivors are not an option.

Air Force pilot Caleb Kelly has come back home with one mission in mind—to propose to the woman whose letters and lucky charm helped him survive his deployment in Afghanistan. But when he finds their apartment empty with a note saying she’s left him, he arrives at her mother’s house in rural Alabama less than a week before Kourtney is about to marry another man. Now he’s out to win her heart again and gets some unexpected assistance from her younger sister, Alex.

Alex Leadbetter has always thought Caleb was too good for her manipulative, social-climbing sister. She had assumed Kourtney’s identity to write letters to him and keep his spirits up until he returned home to the hard truth, never expecting to fall in love with him along the way. After he shows up in town, she convinces him that the best way to get Kourtney back is to make her think he’s fallen for someone new — her. But when a fake romance becomes all too real, her deception may leave them both grounded.

Fabulous, Fun and Flirty is how I would describe FALLING FOR THE WINGMAN, Book Three in the Kelly Brother's Series by Crista McHugh.  I have been hooked on the series since THE SWEETEST SEDUCTION, and I have to say, they only get better and better as the series goes on!

Caleb and Alex are a perfect pair...if only Caleb would clue in.  Instead he is trying to get back the ex-girlfriend who left him while he was away at war, oh, and that girl is also Alex's sister.  Alex is the perfect mix of tom-boy and girl-next door, with a hint of a wild side, and Caleb is finding that the more time that he spends with Alex, the less he thinks that trying to get her sister back is a good idea.  

I truly enjoyed the flirty banter between Caleb and Alex, and the steamy kisses don't hurt either!  This is one of those books where you can't help but be routing for the heroine and hero to FINALLY get together, and I have to say I enjoyed EVERY MINUTE!!

I highly recommend FALLING FOR THE WINGMAN, and I KNOW if you are anything like me, you will want to get your hands on the first two books in the series as well.  They are just THAT GOOD!! More Kelly brothers to come is the word from Crista McHugh and I for one am THRILLED!  Bring them on!!

When I wake up in a dark, unfamiliar room, I have no idea what's waiting for me in the shadows. My imagination conjures up demons of the worst kind. 

Reality is much worse: 

A collar with no leash. A prison with no walls. And a life stripped of meaning. 

I am presented with a vile contract and asked to sign. It outlines the terms of my servitude. The only information I have about my captor are the two small letters inked at the bottom: 

J.S. 

Armed with only my memories, I must do everything I can to avoid becoming ensnared in his twisted mind games. But in the end, it all comes down to one choice: 

Resist and die. 

Or submit, and sign my life away

About Mal Olson

Mal Olson writes adrenaline kicked romantic suspense. She enjoys skydiving, ski jumping, SCUBA, hang gliding, big wave surfing, car racing, mountain climbing—that is, vicariously through her characters, who are always kick-ass, and often boss her around rather than allowing her to spin her stories the way she intends. (She did, however, personally engage in zip lining this past summer.)

Her debut novel Shadow of Deceit, released by The Wild Rose Press in 2012, is an edge of the seat romantic suspense-thriller set in Milwaukee and parts of northern Wisconsin. A couple of her favorite reviews came from Beverly at The Wormhole, who said, "Wow! This one has it all! Non-stop action, hot and sexy characters, betrayal, smokin' romance, and a thrilling plot--" and Gothic Mom's Book Review, which stated, "In the 150+ books that I read per year, there are very few that receive a five star rating. Shadow of Deceit did just that. Non stop action, sexual tension, an adventure that had me on the edge of my seat...A fantastic book that had me from page one..."

Olson also offers two short stories. Danger Zone, which has spent months in the Kindle top 100 free romantic suspense category, is a guaranteed fifteen minute pulse pounder where two strangers survive a rock 'n roll landing on an icy Milwaukee runway and chase a could-be terrorist into the danger zone. Me and Brad, a feel good romance, features an irresistible K-9 and was ranked in the Kindle free top 100 list for months in the Contemporary Romance category.

Does being nobody's fool mean that you're nobody's love?

Colleen O'Rourke is in love with love... just not when it comes to herself. Most nights, she can be found behind the bar at the Manningsport, New York, tavern she owns with her twin brother, doling out romantic advice to the lovelorn, mixing martinis and staying more or less happily single. See, ten years ago, Lucas Campbell, her first love, broke her heart... an experience Colleen doesn't want to have again, thanks. Since then, she's been happy with a fling here and there, some elite-level flirting and playing matchmaker to her friends.

But a family emergency has brought Lucas back to town, handsome as ever and still the only man who's ever been able to crack her defenses. Seems like maybe they've got some unfinished business waiting for them—but to find out, Colleen has to let her guard down, or risk losing a second chance with the only man she's ever loved.

~~~~~

Ok....Another FABULOUS Romance by Kristan Higgins, I think next to THE BEST MAN, WAITING ON YOU has to be the funniest yet! Yet, she never loses the heart ripping emotion that you can expect with a K. Higgins romance. The ups and downs, the laughs and the tears are all a part of the journey, and I would GLADLY take it again and again.

The relationship between Colleen and Lucas is everything I love about a Great Romance.  The love between these two was REAL and neither was able to let it go after being apart for so many years.  I tell ya, Kristan Higgins knows how to make me bawl my eyes out (not as much as with MY ONE AND ONLY, cause that one just tore me apart), but she gets to the space in your heart and literally guts you, putting you in the heroine's shoes...That's talent right there.

And like I mentioned above, WAITING ON YOU might take the cake for the funniest Higgins' romance yet...I know...It might be funnier then the "Dog in Underwear" scene from JUST ONE OF THE GUYS, and I think it even might beat out THE BEST MAN (The one-liners are just unbeatable, but over-all scene, WAITING ON YOU might take the cake with the "Single Painting Class").  I literally laughed for I kid you not, half hour.  

If you haven't read the rest of the series, I recommend you start with THE BEST MAN, which I voted Best Contemporary Romance of 2013 (hands down), and then you need to read THE PERFECT MATCH (cause Tom...oh my), and then WAITING ON YOU, which will have you feeling the high's and low's and everything in between.

Loved it!!  Kristan Higgins...keep em coming...I just can't get ENOUGH!!

About Kristan Higgins

I started writing romance novels when my kids were little. I’d always been a writer of some type—public relations, advertising, research—but wanted to stay home with the bunnies. I’d been reading romance novels ever since I swiped Shanna by Kathleen Woodiwiss from my grandmother’s night table. “Higgins,” I said to myself, “I bet you could write one of these.” And so I sat down every afternoon when the kids were napping, took my lifelong love of romance novels and tried to make a career out of it. We’ve been living happily ever after since.

I live in my hometown, a small, pretty place in Connecticut where there’s a beautiful library and a wicked good ice cream stand. I’m the mom of two lovely children who have very long eyelashes and excellent vocabularies, the wife of a heroic and brave firefighter and the willing love-slave to a naughty mutt named Willow. Our cat, Huck, occasionally deigns to sit on my lap, especially when I'm typing.

I love to write books about relationships, since the search for love and security is one of the driving forces of life. My characters are regular people, folks like us, and I hope to give them a big, memorable love story rich with family, pets, food and laughter. When I’m not writing, I like to be with my kids, goof around with my husband, read, watch baseball, ride my bike and bake. I suffer from chronic bedhead and an unhealthy (and completely understandable) obsession with Derek Jeter, shortstop for the New York Yankees. We spend as much time as possible at our family home on Cape Cod, swimming in the Atlantic, shivering on the beach, swatting horseflies and watching fish evade my lure at Higgins Pond. It’s as close to heaven as it gets.

Rebecca Andrews knew she was lucky to be hired as a private nurse for an elderly lady who was going on a one-month trip aboard a luxury cruise ship. But there was one big problem. The client was the grandmother of her ex-boyfriend--the guy she was still in love with; the guy who didn't love her back.

Zach Carmichael couldn't say no to his grandmother's plea to join her on a month-long cruise for her eightieth birthday. But he didn't expect his spritely gran to bring two private nurses with her. One of them happened to be the woman who broke his heart--the one he believed lied to him about her feelings.

Aboard a luxury liner, their passion for each other flared again. Was it just a temporary flame brought about by the romance of being in a cruise? How could they give love another chance when they were both afraid to put their hearts back on the line?

About Miranda P. Charles

Ever since I was a young teenager, I have loved reading romance novels. My auntie used to send me boxes of her books and I would devour them one after another.

Every so often, I would read a mystery or a suspense or a paranormal novel as I love those genres too. But romance is still my favourite. :)

For many years, I wrote technical and non-fiction materials for professional use and had only dreamt about writing a novel. Then, one day, after a period of binge-reading sexy romances, I decided to sit in front of my computer and start writing my first fiction book. The result? My debut novel Will To Love, the first in the hot and sexy Lifestyle by Design series. After that, I knew that I would love to tell more beautiful love stories through my books.

I live in Sydney, Australia with my amazing husband who lovingly cheers me on in my journey as a novelist.

SAVED BY THE RANCHER

Jennifer Ryan's First Ever Release

BUY NOW

Amazon / B&N / iTunes

The black sheep of Fallbrook is back … and he's in for the surprise of his life.

Former bad boy, now-decorated Army Ranger Brody McBride is home and on a mission: Find the woman he never should have left behind and right the wrong he did eight years ago.

When the man she loved broke her heart and skipped town, Rain Evans picked up the pieces. But along with heartbreak, Brody left her something infinitely better than she could have imagined: two beautiful daughters. One she gave birth to, and the other she rescued from the woman who helped destroy her relationship with Brody.

Brody is shocked to discover he's a father, and he's more determined than ever to win back Rain and protect his girls. Can they rekindle the love they once shared and become the family they were always meant to be? Or will a danger from their past return and ruin everything? 

~~~~~

 I have been anticipating THE RETURN OF BRODY MCBRIDE since I read Jennifer Ryan's Novella from CONFESSIONS OF A SECRET ADMIRER back in January.  We met Rain Evans, single mother, and I was like "I NEED to know this story!!"

Let me just say, Jennifer Ryan did NOT disappoint!  Brody had some begging and pleading (that's right...on your knees boy!), but the way he was when he first meets his daughters...well that just seriously gets you right there...you know where...right in the heart!  He wasn't one to try and blame anyone else for what was his fault, and he even though he had grown up in the last eight years, he still had much healing and growing to do.  Who better to help then two little girls who think the world of him...and their mother, who still might care about him...just a little bit!

I won't get into how much I hate Roxy...cause...well...that just would take too long...BUT... I had a fabulous time reading THE RETURN OF BRODY MCBRIDE.  Had all the elements that I love in a romance, especially a second chance romance (and secret baby romance, two of my favorites), lots of emotion, a little heartbreak and a connection that lasts throughout the years.  Definitely grab this one up today!!
