LATEST NEW RELEASES, RECOMMENDATIONS, & PRE-ORDERS — WEEK OF May 16, 2017

UPCOMING RECOMMENDATION: Shacking Up by Helena Hunting (Read my Review)
WOOHOOO!!! I just finished reading an early copy of this FUN, SEXY, LIGHT-HEARTED upcoming romance in one sitting!!! It kept me laughing, chuckling, and smiling the whole way through!!! The hero and heroine meet when he accidentally kissed her (then coughed on her) at a party. She came down with a nasty flu and totally bombed her audition the next day. When he found out his part in her recent misfortune, he felt horribly guilty and offered her a place to stay (and a temporary job babysitting his exotic pets while he was away) until she got back on her feet. But their attraction was undeniable and pretty soon their temporary agreement turned into a sexy, steamy love affair… If you’re looking for a well-written, SWOOOONY, LAUGH-OUT-LOUD romance, definitely pre-order a copy of this book!!!

My father, the CEO of Ramsey Records, takes credit for all of his success, trying to control him in the same way he’s controlled me. But I finally get an opportunity to prove myself. To be wild. To be free.

Today I’m auditioning to be the replacement bass player for his band. If I get the job, I’ll go on tour and work with his every day, in very close proximity.

Fallen Crest Forever by Tijan — New Release!!

How can I say no to someone who already gave me my happily ever after?

Plus One by Aleatha Romig — New Release!!

And then there’s the way his designer suits drape over his broad shoulders and big…well, we’ve all heard the rumors, the ones that say he’s up for any challenge.

But I can’t see him that way. He’s my boss… And I don’t date men like him. Until that one time that I catch him in a compromising position when I’m also in need of a last-minute date for a wedding…and then it’s not real. It’s blackmail. For one weekend, he’s my plus-one.

Playing The Millionaire by Sandi Lynn — New Release!!

The skim of her hair over my body as she bends over… The scrape of her nails across my chest as she screams my name… The bite of her teeth on my shoulder just as we both reach the edge… It all helps me forget… I just didn’t bargain on finding my one night stand across the boardroom table the next day. She might be my latest conquest but I have a feeling she might just conquer me.”

Mother Fluffer by Max Monroe — New Release!!

Somehow, by magical mist or advanced parkour, the monster is gone. Okay, fine. It’s not hypothetical. The guy off of work is me, and the horse I lost is actually an ginormous dog. But I still have his kids and demon cat, along with my own child and pig. I’m practically batting .667 at this point, and that’s a pretty good average. Right?

Motherfluffer.

Falling for the Irish hottie was as natural as breathing. But figuring out what she’d do when it came time to leave? Not so easy…
