FF_Facebook_BlogTourBanner_02A FAN PAGES\cooltext1348847950
If you dig into the deepest parts of your soul, what would you find? Happiness, pain, love, regret, peace, sorrow? Now imagine experiencing all those feelings at once and then nothing at all. These were the average days in the life of Lennox. An unhealthy and unstable mind is further challenged when fate intervenes. One tragic moment will test her wavering strength and leave a permanent scar on her conscience. Follow her journey of rediscovery, falling in love, and searching for her own fairy-tale ending.

Our Review

After readintg Harts book 'Reality' a few months back, his book wasn't at all what I was expecting! But it was amazing none the less! Taking on a completely different genre of book doesn't always work for authors. Typically it's a "stick with what you know" kinda thing. Not with Hart.

I loved this book and the crazy emotional journey it took me on. 

This book takes you through Lennox's life. Although this is a fictional story, it touches on some very real life struggles that people face everyday.

While I can't sympathize with the mental struggles Lennox deals with, while reading this book I felt like I could. Danni Hart does an exceptional job making you feel as if you are there. In the book. Struggling, loving, and surviving alongside Lennox. 

I'm not one for spoiler filled reviews so I won't touch on what goes on in this book. Just know that while it was an emotionally gripping story, it was a breath of fresh air. It's not everyday you come across a book, or an author, who flawlessly weaves a story with such real situations without insensitive to them.

Absolutely loved this story, and definitely recommend it to anyone who's looking for something a little different :)

Prologue
There was a time in my life when the light within me shined so brightly. At some point I lost it. I lost me. Life used to course through my veins like an out of control wildfire, unstoppable and infectious. Time was supposed to heal, but all it did was slowly strip me down to an empty vessel void of passion, desire, and drive. I wanted to scream, “Be the one to save me,” but my soul was drained, my heart was shattered, and time had siphoned the life out of me.

About the Author
I’m a California native, who lives in the South – Virginia to be exact. I still prefer sushi to fried chicken, avocados to okra, and I absolutely loathe humidity. I do love watching the seasons change though. My husband and I have been here for ten years, and I still get giddy like a school girl every time it snows.

I’m married to my high school sweetheart. We were married young, barely out of high school. Everyone told us we were crazy and stupid. We’ll be celebrating 12 years of marriage this year, and I love him more every single day. We’re living proof that true love knows no age limit.

We’ve been blessed with two beautiful daughters who continue to amaze and inspire me, and are probably making me go a bit insane. I’m obsessed with yoga and pilates and am a complete chocoholic. I apologize in advance for the amount of sweets in my book.

I’m absolutely obsessed with romance novels (duh) and probably could have built a vacation home with the amount of money I’ve invested in them over the years. Romance novels take you to another place, making your heart race, emotions swell, passion run free. After so many years of meeting hundreds of fictional characters and discovering their worlds, I found myself creating my own.


Synopsis

A move back to his beloved Los Angeles threatens to change the future he had written for himself when the shy and beautiful, Sophie Barringer, ends up being the Maid of Honor at his sister's wedding. 





Sophie has been burned at love. The last thing she needs is a self proclaimed bachelor to turn her head. But her heart may have other plans. 

Forced to spend a week together in paradise, can they deny their steamy chemistry and stay away from each other or will they give in to lust and take the chance? Can Mark get over his player reputation to take a shot at love or will fate be cruel enough to deny them their happily ever after?

I want to see it all. I haven't been everywhere but it's on my list.

"She travels the world & home is always in her heart."

Lately if I'm not traveling or chasing a toddler, I'm writing. Which is weird because I hated writing in college. Oh wait, that's because that was boring.

Then tell me about because I love indie authors.

Synopsis
An independent woman, a controlling man, and one wild one-night stand…

Kat Kennedy moved to the rugged coast of Maine to start a new life, but encountered much more than she bargained for in dark, dangerous, and seductive Lane Wild.

Desire and temptation smolder before she succumbs to her darkest fantasies with the captivating stranger. She doesn't expect to see him again after an explosive one-night stand leaves her breathless and craving more, but just like lightning in the darkness, he shows up in her life at the most unpredictable moments.

A sensual game of cat and mouse ensues before the attraction between them reaches a fever pitch—the magnetism combustible, the sexual tension nearly unbearable—and Kat finally abandons inhibition and explores the cunning, selfish, and sexual side of a world she's never known.

They have the perfect non-relationship—passion-fueled nights with no strings attached—until life gets real and the past and present collide in a dangerous storm of lust and obsession.

Synopsis
Ever since her parents passed away in a tragic car accident, Eden Cross has been living a quiet, stable and predictable life in inner Sydney – the total opposite of her carefree, relaxed, happy-go-lucky past. Her parents passing and the fact she’s an only child meant Eden was left with her best friend, Jules and Matt, her boyfriend of three years as her only family. That was until she discovered something about Matt that would turn her life upside down. Eden leaves Sydney in a hurry and begins an adventure that takes her across four Australian states before she lands in Pine Creek, Northern Territory.



Jackson Henley has lived in Pine Creek his entire life. He runs a massive cattle and cropping station with his twin brother, Jeremy, which they inherited when their parents retired. He’s had a bad experience with relationships courtesy of The Bitch - Dannika, so lately he’s preferred to play the field. That is, until he comes face to face with the stunning brunette beauty who’s behind the bar at the Cow and Calf. The problem is, she won’t tell him her name, she won’t give him the time of day, and she won’t give him a chance to prove himself.



What’s it going to take for Eden to give Jackson a chance? Does he have the patience to even bother fighting for her? How will he handle the competition?



In the end, will Jackson have what it takes to convince Eden to start living again, instead of just existing?

★Cover Reveal!★ The Cowboy in Me by Lorraine Britt


CowboyinMe_Cover



add-to-goodreads-button31

Synopsis
Mary Elizabeth Matthews is a reclusive novelist with a great appreciation for actor Cody McAllister, so much so that he inspires a character in her newest novel. Unbeknownst to her, Cody’s friend and co-star Jennifer Johnstone is a huge fan of her books and gives the newest one to Cody. She insists he find a way to make it into a movie, saying he’d be perfect for the lead. Cody is instantly lost in the world of this novel , absorbing it in one sitting. He makes it his mission to find the mysterious author and convince her to let him produce a film version, having no idea that the character he is so determined to play was written only for him…or how his mission would change his life…forever.
Adult, Romance, 18+ Includes some non-graphic sexual situations.
Excerpt
I knew Mary Beth was older than me. I had known that all along, from my dreams, from the picture, from what little I had learned from Julie and from what I had learned about Mary Beth since arriving in Texas. I had been foolish to think she was the one with the experience, wondering what in the world she would ever see in someone as young as me. Now I knew while she had life experiences that no one should ever have to live through, I was the experienced one as far as relationships were concerned. I was going to have to be the one in the driver’s seat where that was concerned, that was evident.
I don’t know what I expected Mary Beth to tell me today. Even though I feared the worst, what I feared was something that was going to end in her telling me she wasn’t interested and that she was sending me away. I would have taken that ten times over and would have lost her forever if it meant she never would have had to go through what she did. I had never felt such rage and anger and sickness over the vile things Mike had done to her. I wanted to kill him. I wanted in that moment to use every ounce of strength in the body I’d worked so hard to build, find Mike, and rip him to pieces. It hurt me in places I didn’t know existed to know that my Mary Beth had been hurt in such ways.

★Blog Tour Stop + 5 Star Review!★ Throttle Me by Chelle Bliss

Throttle Me by Chelle Bliss Blog Tour Stop


Men of Inked Series Book #1

SYNOPSIS:
Suzy’s a control freak and has her life mapped out - work hard, find a man with a stable job, and live happily ever after. She’s content with the status quo, but her plan comes to a screeching halt when he enters her life and turns it upside down.

City gave up on love when his heart was crushed in college, preferring to be the typical bachelor. He spends his nights hopping from one bed to another and his days working at his family tattoo shop, Inked. A chance encounter on a dark road makes him question what he had sworn off forever – a relationship.

A night of passion and lust causes them to question everything. Is City the knight in shining armor to the damsel in distress? Can their relationship survive when a fantasy falls apart and a secret comes out that changes everything?

Taylor's Review
Well, well, well! Look what we have here! A solid Five Star Review :) 

What do you do when everything you always thought you wanted changes? When the perfect checklist you have set up for the type of life you want to have, gets completely tossed out the window? Or in the case of Throttle Me, off the back of a bike?

Suzy has had her entire life planned out since...well since forever. Every aspect of her life has a checklist, from her career, to the perfect man, to the perfect house with the white picket fence, and her 2.5 children. They're all very well drawn up, no-nonsense, hard lined, checklists. Checklist's she's determined to stick to no matter what. While a man like Joseph "City" Gallo wouldn't even be a blip on her radar, he's determined to take her checklists and rip them all to pieces. 

City is just a normal guy. He's been through some tough stuff, with the loss of the only woman he ever loved, he finds it hard to open up to just anyone. But Suzy isn't just anyone. Not to City. When City finds her stranded on the side of the road alone and in the dark, he offers a helping hand, not knowing that the ride Suzy was going to take him on, would require holding on with both hands. 

City see's something in Suzy. Something innocent, and pure, and something rare he doesn't see in any of the bimbos hes been known to hang around. He see's something real. Little does he know, that Suzy isn't as innocent and pure as he thinks she is. While she may not drink or curse, the thoughts running rampant through her mind are anything but innocent.

Throttle Me, wasn't at all what I was expecting it to be. It was better! It far exceeded my very minimal expectations. When I review books for blog tours/honest review, I never read the synopsis, or reviews on the book. I don't set the bar too high, I keep my expectations low, because I have no idea what to expect. I like to be surprised, and Bliss did that for me in this book, and then some. 

I won't lie and say I didn't cast judgement on this book based on the title alone. Because I did. "Throttle Me." I just figured it'd be another bad attempt at copying something so few have been able to master. I honestly thought I was going to be reading an MC novel based on the title alone. Let me just say, I'm so freaking glad I didn't let those judgement's keep me from reading this book. This is NOT an MC book, City just rides a motor cycle and hangs out in biker bars. He's tatted up and sexy as sin, but he's not part of an MC :) 

Anywhoo! I was pleasantly surprised with Throttle Me. I loved it! I loved that City was definitely a little on the Alpha side, and although he pushed Suzy, he was also willing to compromise with her, instead of just demand that she do everything he says. I also loved that Suzy wasn't the typical girl you find in most romance novels these days. She was hard headed and stubborn, and she had a backbone! GOD I can't tell you how refreshing it is to have a heroine actually be able to stand her ground.

I fell in love with this book. I fell in love with not only Suzy and City, but the secondary characters too! Sophia was absolutely hilarious! She's the type of best friend every girl should have, and Kayden is the type of brother figure I wish I had growing up: protective yet still willing to give me my space to be a grown up and make my own choices.

This book was written in dual perspective and I have to say I AM SO GLAD that it was. I typically hate the bouncing around and back and forth between two character POV's. But being able to get City's input on this whole story, was an awesome added bonus. I'm glad it was part of the book, because I would have done everything short of kidnapping Chelle and making her write this novel in City's perspective.

This book has everything. A sexy as hell alpha male, a strong female lead, some amazing secondary characters, a lot of laughs, a little bit of drama, and of course, some very swoon worthy moments!

Chelle Bliss has me hooked, and I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!

“Do you swear?” I asked as she set the glass back on the bar.
“What?” She gaped at me.
“Do you swear? Simple question. You’ve said ‘heck’ and ‘friggin’’ so far, but nothing dirty.”
“Oh, um, yeah, I swear.” Her cheeks turned pink and a small smile spread across her face. “I’m just used to watching my words with the kids around all day.”
“Prove it,” I said as I stared in her blue sapphire eyes.
“What? Why?”
“Cause I need to know if it’s in you. Are you all good girl or is there more under there dying to come out?” I hid the smile and laughter that was so close to breaking free from my lips. The pink of her cheeks spread across her face. I know I embarrassed her, but fuck, I needed to know if I stood a chance.
“Yes, I swear. What do you think I am? I’m not a child, City.” She glared at me as she raised the drink to her lips and wrapped them around the rim. Fuck I wanted those lips wrapped around my shaft, taking me deep and sucking me off.
“Never said you were, babe. Do you drink besides tonight?” I asked, now smiling because I knew she was upset. I liked the fire I saw in her eyes when I pointed out her good girl qualities – she obviously didn’t like being labeled.
“Sometimes. I’m just responsible. I don’t drink and drive. My dad used to be a cop and it was drilled into my head at an early age.” The words she spoke hit me like a ton of bricks. Drunk driving was the one thing in the world that caused my blood to boil.
Good girl teacher with a cop father? Just my luck. “Nothin’ wrong with that. Virgin daiquiris aren’t always your thing, then?”
“Why? Do I have to be a drinker? I mean does it make me less of an adult?”
“No, Suzy. Just trying to get a feel for who you are – what you are.”
