For April releases April 22 –EARTH DAY!

Ryan Cole has two stiff middle fingers for those who say, ”You can rise above your past”…because, yeah…when has that ever happened?

Until it does…

After aiding an influential Senator, Ryan is thrust into a scenario that lays the foundation for his dreams of becoming a trail lawyer. All he has to do is befriend the Senator’s daughter—a woman with no friends, no social skills, who’s past traumas are even worse than his own…and on top of all that, she’s the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen.

As Ryan manipulates his way into April’s life, he discovers he’d do anything to release her from the cage she lives within.

But when he slips and April discovers her father’s plan—and Ryan’s part in it, he must face the consequences of his betrayal and a possible future without the woman he loves.

There’s only one rule in this fatal game: They will have 72 hours to find a way out before the sadistic serial killer begins his hunt . . .But what he never could have expected was the explosive passion that ignites between the two ex-lovers—one that makes them strong. Fierce. And determined to do whatever it takes to escape—and to survive. . .

I was given a copy of this book via NetGalley for an honest review.

Oh my what did I just read. I need a second to let my heart fall back into place.  I will be honest here and say I say this was a Bella Jewel book and was all over it before I read the blurb.  That’s right I had no idea what I was getting myself into.  I don’t do scary books but this was great.  The suspense and thrill of trying to figure out what was going to happen next was amazing.  I was on the edge of my seat, heart in my throat, flipping pages like a mad woman.

What do you do when you wake up and find yourself in a game you never asked to be in and fighting for your life? That is exactly were Lara and Noah found themselves.  Lara and Noah use to be a couple a while back an now Noah is back in town ready to talk to Lara about what went wrong with the relationship an Lara is not having any part of it when they get taken by a psychopath and made to play a game where they are fighting to stay alive. Not only are they trying to stay one step ahead of the psychopath but they are trying to get along and do it together. This is not what the game master had planned.

This was a great read I was never sure what was around the next corner. I was always trying to figure out how they were going to get out of their current predicament.  What these two endured and attempted to overcome was outstanding. Lara was trying to overcome second guessing herself trying to find the old Lara and Noah was struggling with being mad at Lara and trying to protect her all at the same time. Both were trying to outwit, out play and out last the one trying to choreograph the game.   A true game of survival that only one side would win only question is who?

I am looking forward to more books like this from Bella.  Way to keep me turning the pages.

I was given a copy of the book from the author for an honest review.

Coby…Coby ….Coby!!  This brooding alpha is everything I wanted and more.  I was so excited for this book and man was I happy!!

Brogan…Brogan..Brogan!!  This girl kicked my butt.  I knew she was kick a$$ but reading her story and everything that she has gone through…..WOW.  I never expected her to be the one push Coby away.  I figured HE would be the butthead not wanting to commit but when Coby commits, he commits!!

There is so much happening in this story but holy crap was I blown away.  The things that Coby and Brogan endure and come out of was insane.   JM dug deep for this book.  There was a lot of sexy time, dirty talking and butt kicking.  But to see Coby being tender….I mean WHAT!!  Who saw that coming? Not me.  I mean yeah he is so naughty and even made me blush because who knew knife play could be so *gulp* hawt??? Not me!!

There are times in the book that might make you cringe…..yeah poor Coby and what he has to go through but the strength that he has and the resolve to be with his girl……I dunno who I love more…..Asher or Coby.  I think Coby stole me from his brother that is for sure!!

Review by: Becky

Harper Stills is making it. She’s paying the bills, she’s enjoying her time as a young adult, and she has the best friend of all best friends. When he moves out of their shared apartment and moves in a stranger, Harper’s one rule of ‘no sex with the roommate’ gets put to the test.

Knox Gregory is a man on a mission. A one track mind leads him to rooming with one of the sexiest women he’s ever met… but not under the right circumstances. He’s not allowed to fall for her, not in his plan, at least.

Sometimes things you plan for get shattered, though, and in the wake of it so does a lot more.

“All it took was one decision to ruin my life.”

*18+ for sexual situations and language*
*Stand alone, no cliffhanger!*

Review by: Jordan

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

My twin sister and I were born in the small town of Martinsville Indiana but raised for the greater part of our lives on the south side of Indianapolis—just five minutes from downtown. We played outside like most normal children do but when Indiana winters became brutal, and since I was always a sickly kid, we watched television; mostly science fiction or the old black and white monster flicks. When I wasn’t doing that I was in my room filling up notebooks with stories.

I met my husband on a blind date, arranged by my sister, at a concert at Ball State University. He was a drummer in a band. We now have been married for thirty-two years. We have three grown daughters and live in Mt. Comfort Indiana, surrounded by corn and soybean fields, with far too many pets.

Right now I have nine published books. Six in the Union Series, an adult paranormal/fantasy romance about animal shifters, and three in a young adult trilogy, titled Children of the Alliance. I tend to write more in the paranormal genre but I have several science fictions, one dystopian, and one dram-com (drama-comedy) waiting for my attention someday.

When and Why did you start to write?

When my stepfather heard that I was suffering from dyslexia, in the sixth grade, he decided to take me to a used bookstore with the belief that the best way to improve my reading skills was to read. Some of the books were hard to get through at first, but with his encouragement I refused to give up. Then one day, after complaining about the ending of a particular book, he told me that if I didn’t like the ending then I should just write my own book, so I did. My first attempt resulted in a horribly written western when I was fourteen, staring a cocky gun slinging cowboy by the name Curt Calhoun. Curt along with his seven brothers, who all shared C names in common, may never have seen the pages of a book, but that was the day I started writing, and never stopped.

Then six years ago I was diagnosed with Lupus, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, and connective tissue disease. Needless to say my life altered and I was left having to readjust, both physically and emotionally. The CTD has been very unkind to my knees and hips and I was no longer able to do the things I once loved, such as horseback riding and hiking. I let depression get to me for a while and then one day I got up, walked to my computer, and sat down. I opened up one of my stories and started working. At first writing was just a way to escape but after some encouragement decided to give the indie world a go.

What authors do you always read or suggest to others?

Of course I’m a big Poe fan. I love several classic authors such as Jane Austen, the Bronte’s and Tolkien. I’ve read several novels by Terry Brooks, Rachel Caine, along with Margaret Weis and Don Perrin to pass the time. Although, since indie publishing four years ago I admit that I read a lot less of the big publishing company books, and have chosen, that is when I have the time, to support my fellow indie authors and I have a very long TBR list.

What is the most surprising thing you have found out with the writing process?

When I die someday people probably won’t know my name or my books and that’s okay. Because when that time comes I’m going to look back over my life and see that a shy, dyslexic introvert, with a chronic pain disorder did not give up no matter what life threw at her. I once thought that it was the support of others that I needed in order to achieve anything but I was wrong. Through all the discouragement and my own inner doubting while writing my books, in the end, what it finally took to fulfill my dream, which was to actually finish a book, was my own belief. The belief that I can do anything I set my mind too.

“Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men.”
Johann Wolfgang Goethe.

What are you working on now?

Right now I am currently working on book seven in the Union Series, Rise of the Raven. I meant to have it out last year but 2016 was a very bad year for me. Hopefully it will be released later this year. I have a lot of make up work to do.

When writing are you a pantser or plotter?

Most definitely a plotter. I keep very detailed notebooks that contain definitions, maps, and scenes for each book. I tend to have one main plot along with several sub-plots so I write basic outlines to keep my mind on track, but keep it loosie goosie. We authors know how quickly characters can stage a mutiny. I’ve had characters that were supposed to die suddenly decide they want to stick around for a while, and that tends to change the story somewhat. Either way when I’m done with a book I pretty much feel that it ended the way it was supposed to. Sometimes I even write the ending first.

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

The final instillation of the Arnot brothers.  Echo, much like his brothers, meets his fake fiancé but he and she can’t keep their eyes off each other.  However, Fiancée Naomi had a secret…well a big secret actually.

The couple send a nice quiet night out when Naomi’s secret is revealed.  Echo does some diggin and finds out that she is in trouble…really big trouble with the bad guy from the last book.  The couple will have to do a lot of trusting and talking but of course *wiggles eyes* bonding to make sure that they are safe and can have an HEA.

I really love these short stories from this author.  I loved the other brothers books plus her paranormal series books are great reads. SO if you want a fun, flirty, steamy, short book then grab any of this authors books and you will love it.

Captain John Franzen.

Inside the lines…
It’s the definition of life for Tracy Rhodes, and she has no choice about that. Lines–lots of them–are what happens when one is sworn in as second-in-command of the free world.
But the lines are crushed beneath the boots of Captain John Franzen, assigned as a special advisor to her security team for a high-profile event in Vegas. The towering warrior with the haunted stare shatters her composure, invades her libido, and makes her yearn for things she shouldn’t. Sweaty, illicit things…with her body pinned beneath his…

Outside the boundaries…
John Franzen, six and a half feet of rigid composure on the outside, is a lost man on the inside. Why the hell is he even alive? A guy isn’t supposed to survive eleven years in Special Forces, especially after the crazy missions he’s been assigned. Accepting the security gig in Vegas is just a favor to a friend–a way to fill time that’s become too damn empty lately.
Until the cushy “babysitting job” becomes the most treacherous mission of his life–and the politician he’s protecting becomes the woman in his bed. The lover beneath his bonds…

The submissive he longs to claim forever.

Breaking all the rules…
She’s destined for marble halls and an oval office.
He’s wired for dirt and violence.
Will her passion be enough to tame his demons…to claim the ultimate wild boy as her own?

USA Today bestselling romance author Angel Payne has been reading and writing her entire life, though her love for romances began in junior high, when writing with friends on “swap stories” they’d trade between classes. Needless to say, those stories involved lots of angst, groping, drama, and gooey kissing.

She began getting a paycheck for her writing in her twenties, writing record reviews for a Beverly Hills-based dance music magazine. Some years, various entertainment industry gigs, and a number of years in the hospitality industry later, Angel returned to the thing she loves the most: creating character-based romantic fiction. Along the way, she also graduated with two degrees from Chapman University in Southern California, taking departmental honors for English, before writing five historical romances for Kensington and Bantam/Doubleday/Dell.

Angel found a true home in writing contemporary-based romances that feature high heat and high concepts, focusing on memorable alpha men and the women who tame them. She has numerous book series to her credit, including the Kinky Truth series, the Secrets of Stone series (with Victoria Blue), the W.I.L.D. Boys of Special Forces series, and the acclaimed Cimarron series. Temptation Court, a new series being launched through the Dark Nights Discovery project, debuts in 2016.

Angel still lives in Southern California, where she is married to her soul mate and lives on a street that looks like Brigadoon, with their awesome daughter and Lady Claire, the dog with impeccable manners. When not writing, she enjoys reading, pop culture, alt rock, cute shoes, enjoying the outdoors, and being a gym rat.
