#CoverReveal #SmallTownRomance #EnemiesToLovers #SportsRomance #ComingSoon #Blitz – BLITZ by A.M. Williams

Cover Credit: Sarah Kil Creative; Lindee Robinson Photography

One sexy football player. One sassy small town librarian.

Is there any hope for happily ever after?

Charlie

HEA? No way.

Jasper Sutton is the reason I watched my dream go up in smoke.

I don’t care that he’s ridiculously hot and the night we met was one of the best of my life. The fact that he’s also funny and easy to talk to means next to nothing.

He tore all my hopes to shreds when he bought the old library to turn it into a gym.

I can’t forgive him.

Jasper

Charlotte “Charlie” Drake is something else. And I don’t mean that as a compliment.

She might be gorgeous and sexy, but she’s also headstrong and stubborn.

I get it–I messed up. I didn’t have all the facts and took things too far.

But I’m crazy about her. She’s the only woman who looked past my name and reputation to see the real me. I want to prove to her that I’m serious, I’m sorry, and we could be good together.

What does it take to get over the ultimate fumble and still win the game?

Goodreads

A.M. Williams is just a simple girl from the south that found herself living abroad. When she’s not annoying her cat or reading, she’s spending time with her husband and traveling as much as possible. She has a serious case of wanderlust and wants to go as many places as possible while she can. She loves Cheerwine, sweet tea, and North Carolina (eastern style) BBQ as well as those crystal clear waters on the North Carolina coast.

#romanticsuspense #partofaseries —Soulless: Lawless part 2 (King book4) by: TM Frazier

A USA Today bestseller!
Sacrifice. LOYALTY. FAMILY.
Bear wants to bend the metal bars of his jail cell
with his bare hands and escape. Not because of the
men on the inside who want him dead, but because
Thia is out there where he can’t protect her.
Thia isn’t the type of girl to wait around to be rescued,
especially when she has some rescuing to do of her very own.
Bear and Thia are in for a fight, not only for their lives,
but for their love.

SOULLESS is book FOUR in the KING SERIES and the finale to LAWLESS.

Goodreads

Amazon

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Oh my! I don’t even know where to start. Bear was first introduced in King, book one of the series. The more he was mentioned in King- the more I wanted him to get his own book. I just liked his character and wanted to know more about him. Well, I just finished Souless, book 2 of Bear’s and let me just say, his story did not disappoint, it was freaking EPIC!

T.m. Frazier is truly a master of her craft. She can really weave an MC tale. Several times I had chills because of things that happened I didn’t really see coming. When I finished Souless I literally hugged my Kindle. It is just one of those books. You will completely understand once you read it.

If you do not know who this Bear is I speak of, you are missing out on something amazing! I suggest you start with King so you can get acquainted with everyone because they are quite an amazing bunch.

Well I’m off to read Preppy, book 5 in the series. I’m so excited to see where T.m takes things next.

About T.M. Frazier

T.M. Frazier lives in sunny Southwest Florida with her husband and daughter. She dreamed of being a writer since the day she learned how to read. After spending many years working in real estate she decided could no longer ignore that dream.

She published her first book, The Dark Light of Day, in 2013 and has since become a USA Today bestselling author several times over. Her books have been translated into numerous languages and published all around the world.

T.M. enjoys writing what she calls ‘wrong side of the tracks romance’ with morally corrupt anti-heroes and ballsy heroines.

Her books have been described as raw, dark and gritty. Basically, what that means, is while some authors are great at describing a flower as it blooms, T.M. is better at describing it in the final stages of decay.

She loves meeting her readers, but if you see her at an event please don’t pinch her because she’s not ready to wake up from this amazing dream.

#tearjerker #firstlove #soulmates —No Tomorrow by: Carian Cole

The people we love are thieves.
They steal our hearts. They steal our breath.
They steal our sanity.
And we let them.
Over and over and over again.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

They say you never forget your first love.
Mine was a homeless musician who wandered straight into my soul.

He was my first everything. And fourteen years later, I still can’t get him out of my head.

He broke all my rules.
He also broke my heart.

I watched him climb to stardom, cheering him on from afar.
But I was never a fan; just a girl in love.

Like a tornado, he spiraled, leaving a path of destruction in his wake.

But love conquers all, right? It has to. Because here I stand, ravaged and ruined, needing it to be true.

You can’t go back, but I want to. Back to the park. Back to when he sang only for me. Before he was famous. Before he shattered my heart.

I thought I knew everything about him.
But I could not have been more wrong.

He promised me every tomorrow. And here I am, waiting.
And hoping.
Again.

_______________________

Note: This is not a fluffy, light read or a swoony romance. It’s a journey of love between two people who can’t let each other go, even though they are far from perfect. It’s about loving someone who is struggling with mental illness and addiction and all the ups and downs that come with it. It’s about finding a happily ever after that works between two people loving each other the best they can with patience, understanding, and unconditional love. Not everyone will agree with this kind of love and acceptance – but it exists, and it’s real, and it happens every day.

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Soulmates– some people believe in them, some don’t. I always have but even if I didn’t I totally would have changed my tune after reading No Tomorrow.
Evan and Piper’s story was beautiful and tragic. Not some sunshine and rainbows love story. But a love story that is real, raw, and uncensored. From the moment the Blue and Piper met, though they were an unlikely pair, I was really hoping they would get a happy ending. They both deserve it. But if these 2 want anything close to a happy ending they are going to have to work extra hard to get there. And even then- will all of the hard work and dedication be enough?
No Tomorrow was absolutely amazing! I loved every minute of it and seriously could not read fast enough. This was my first book by Carian Cole, but it definitely won’t be the last. I just love her writing style and look forward to reading more from her in the future.

About Carian Cole

#Wotr21 #AttendingAuthor #MMRomance #Fakerelationship —Crave (Remington Place book 2) by: A.D. Ellis

When two friends agree to be fake boyfriends and add in casual sex, what could go wrong?

Raiden Ono is a nerdy gamer with a painful past and a solid plan for his future. He just needs a break so he can get back on his feet.

Spencer Nelson sees himself as a failure and not worthy of anything remotely resembling good. But then Rai pops into his life and makes him question everything.

Will Rai and Spencer protect their hearts and settle for their status quo friendship? Or will they finally accept the truth and let love take control?

**Crave is a steamy, friends-to-lovers, fake relationship M/M romance with a virgin nursing student and a gruff, grumbly construction worker. It’s the second book in the Remington Place series and can be read as a stand-alone, but is likely best enjoyed when read in order.**

Goodreads

Amazon

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Crave is book 2 in the Remington Place series and can be read as a stand-alone but I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND  starting at the beginning and meeting all of the men of Remington Place. They all have something special about them. And don’t even get me started on their house mother, Bev. She is something else and I just love her to pieces.

Raiden Ono is a gamer and a server at a local diner. He is pretty much alone in life, with no place to call home, so he has been couch surfing to save money. Even though he refuses to admit it out loud, the highlight of his days are when Spencer Nelson shows up at the diner and sits in Rai’s section.

Spencer Nelson is a blue collar construction worker. He, too, was basically alone in life until he found Bev and Remington Place. Now he has his own little “found family” and he’s not alone anymore but there’s still something missing in his life.

Rai and Spencer become friends but when the 2 friends agree to be fake boyfriends for a while there’s no chance that either could catch feelings and their little “fake boyfriends” game could blow up in their faces. Nope- absolutely not. *insert eye roll*

Spencer and Rai’s story gave me ALL THE FEELS!  I am loving this series and cannot wait to meet the next couple of Remington Place.

About A.D. Ellis

Escape into addictive, sexy, emotional romance.
A.D. Ellis is an Indiana girl, born and raised. She spends much of her time in central Indiana as an instructional coach/teacher in the inner city of Indianapolis, being a mom to two amazing school-aged children, and wondering how she and her husband of nearly two decades haven’t driven each other insane yet. A lot of her time is also devoted to phone call avoidance and her hatred of cooking.
She loves chocolate, wine, pizza, and naps along with reading and writing romance. These loves don’t leave much time for housework, much to the chagrin of her husband. Who would pick cleaning the house over a nap or a good book? She uses any extra time to increase her fluency in sarcasm.

#AngstySlowBurn #FriendsToLovers #PartOfASeries #InterconnectedStandalones —Finally Us (Next Generation #5) by: JM Walker


-Vince-
She was perfect.
Her heart.
Her soul.
Everything.
I had been in love with Gigi Rodriguez for as long as I could remember. I had never been shy about my feelings toward her. Everyone knew how I felt. Except for the person who mattered most.
I needed her like I needed my next breath. Our souls called out to each other, entwining together to form a bond I had never felt with another person.
She was passionate.
Strong.
Mine.
Just when I thought I had her in my arms for good, an unknown force threatened to take away the only thing I had ever wanted…

-Gigi-
He was stubborn.
Obsessed.
Dominating.
Vincent Stone Junior was the very reason I danced. Every time I moved, I moved for him. He just didn’t know it yet.
It all started the night of his eighteenth birthday, but school got in the way and I didn’t see much of him for the next three years.
When he came home for good, I knew that he had one mission: To crack down the walls I had built.
I didn’t want to love him.
I didn’t want to need him.
But losing a piece of myself made me realize that I did in fact want those things. He taught me to love myself first and that he would be there, ready and waiting…
For me.

WARNING: Please be advised that there are scenes in this book that deal with infant loss. If you have triggers, please read with caution.

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Ahhh Vince and Gigi, oh how I have anticipated their book. The wait was long with the authors constant teasing but this story was definitely worth waiting for.

You look up the definition of soul mates in the dictionary and I’m sure there will be a picture of Vince and Gigi there. These 2 were destined to be together. There were SO MANY obstacles in their way. He is younger than her by 4 years, so he felt he needed time to mature. She was constantly in her head so Vince had a tough job ahead of him, working to break down Gigi’s walls. Then, just as he starts making progress- BAM- things manage to get crazier! But Vince is determined and Gigi can only deny her feelings for so long.

Gah! This book had it all. An oh so hot Alpha male who had me fanning myself on more than one occasion. A sweet Heroine. One who I admit, I wanted to shake some sense into several times. I just loved Gigi. And don’t even get me started on the villain. JM writes a good villain and this one takes the cake! Finally Us brought out all of my emotions. I laughed, cried, yelled, and even cussed a few times. A definite binge worthy read. I am LOVING this Next Generation Series. And seriously cannot wait for the next release.

#MMRomance #bisexualawakening #agegap #dadsbestfriend #wotr21 #attendingauthor Adore(Remington Place book 1) by: A.D. Ellis




Getting involved with your dad’s best friend is always off-limits. Too bad Cooper has no problem pushing limits.


Cooper Scott is a snarky twink with no filter. He has big plans for a successful future and falling for his dad’s best friend is NOT on the agenda. No worries, they’ll just keep it casual.

Jesse Thompson is a widower and new father at the age of fifty. The offer of help from his best friend’s son should have sent Jesse running. Instead, he finds himself in a predicament he’s spent his life avoiding.

Will Cooper and Jesse end up in a heartbroken crash-and-burn situation? Or can love overcome all and give them a happily ever after?

**Adore is a steamy, age-gap, bi-awakening, dad’s best friend M/M romance with a sassy smartass and a sexy silver fox. It’s the first book in the Remington Place series and can be read as a stand-alone.**


Goodreads

Amazon

Review by Twinsie Tenise

Adore is book one in The Remington Place series. Cooper is an aspiring pre-school teacher. He rents a room from an amazing grandmother figure named Bev. (I freaking love that woman. She adds a special element to the book.) Jesse is a mechanic. He moves in next door and is getting ready to reopen the towns autobody shop. The 2 meet and there is definitely a possible friendship worth exploring. The question is- what happens the more time they spend together?

I flipping adore Cooper and Jesse! Complete opposites with a 25 year age gap and a bit forbidden since, you know, Jesse is Cooper’s dads best friend. Buuut that didn’t stop these 2 men from at least a casual fling. Absolutely nothing can go wrong when you keep things casual, right? Riiiight!

Book one in this series really set the bar high. I seriously cannot wait to meet the rest of the men from Remington Place.

I received a copy of this book from the author and this is my honest review.
