#WOTR #Review #MC – Below the Line, Devil’s Due MC #2 by Chelsea Camaron

Leave a comment

Title: Below the Line: Nomad Bikers
Series: Devil’s Due MC #2
Author: Chelsea Camaron
Genre: MC Romance (standalone within series)
Release Date: January 30, 2017
 
The bastard boy was left alone when his mother was murdered and her killer never found. The domino effect of one person’s crime going unpunished is everlasting. 
He’s no saint.
Owen ‘X’ Gallow has never known a real home. Groomed by the streets, he now has a life with the Devil’s Due MC that gives him the only comfort he has ever known. Family comes by blood and by choice. All Owen has left is his by selection. He keeps his circle close and doesn’t care to have a future.

 

She’s not afraid to call herself a sinner.

 

Hadley Combs doesn’t ask questions, and she has never had anyone to cover her back. She was born alone and will die alone, or at least, that’s how she views her life. In order to get by, she has a job to do—get them off and get herself paid, no talking necessary. The life of a hooker isn’t easy, but she gets by.

 

However, danger climbs in her bed.

 

Will Owen find a way to let Hadley in? When faced with the dangers of her lifestyle, will Hadley let Owen and his brothers keep her safe?

 

Love, hate, anger, and passion collide as the time comes, and the devil demands his due.

 

 

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

Holy Moly!! What a book of twists and turns!!  X and Hadley have lived a life of torment and torture.  They have loved and lost while neither of them knew the “Why” and when they find out…..Man it’s just heart breaking.

X has lived forever with the heartache that he caused Hadley’s death.  He is stunned to find out she isn’t dead but in fact alive and on the run.  X will claim his woman or die trying!!  Look out Hadley this Devil is not going to stop until you are his!!

I gotta say I felt so sad and heartbroken for the two.  They have had so many bad things in their lives happen to keep them apart.  When they are finally together fear hits our girl Hadley hard and she tried to run but Trapper is there to help her face fears.  (Side Note: I need Trappers book like ASAP.  This man has some skeletons and demons BUT I can’t wait to find them out.)

The story is a bit darker then Chelsea’s other MC series so I hope you are prepared for it.  I loved it but I loved her darker standalone novel.  The topics covered are harsh and the emotion plus despair are thick.  Once I stared this book it was tough to put down because we need to see our couple happy plus we need to know WHY all of this has happened to X and Hadley!!

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

Chelsea has a way of taking you on a ride filled with twists and turns never knowing what will happen next. X spent his time tormented by the thought he couldn’t save the one good thing in his life. Hadley spent her time trying to protect the one good thing in her life.

Owen ‘X’ Gallow didn’t have a great life. He was on the streets after his mother was killed and escaping foster care. He found Hadley, his light; they stuck together watched over each other. Until the night he woke up to find Hadley was gone. I’m telling you this gutted me. X couldn’t stay in a place that reminded him of Hadley. He does find a home with the Devil Due MC. He is buying time to unleash the Devils Due on the man who killed his mother.

Hadley’s life was not rainbows and flowers either. She was out on the streets and found her safe place with Owen until the night she was torn from her happy place and found herself in the middle of a nightmare that she could not wake up from.

This book was a little darker than what I’m use to from Chelsea but wow she did a fabulous job. I kept turning pages needing to know more, needing to know what and why things happened but mostly needed to know the connections and how everything fit together. The connections X and Hadley have is undeniable and rock solid. It absolutely broke my heart to hear their stories. To see Hadley trying to protect X from his past and to see the determination X had to old onto Hadley was heartwarming. What I loved the most was seeing how strong-willed Hadley was she is a true survivor and I enjoyed seeing the side of X he only showed Hadley. I also enjoyed seeing the brothers and cannot wait to learn more about them.

“I’m loving this series! Not surprisingly since Chelsea is one of my go to authors who never leaves me disappointed.” – Goodreads Reviewer


“This was a good quick read and I can’t wait for the next in the series.” – Review from Cat’s Guilty Pleasures

~Owen~
People buy into that romance shit. If you look for it hard enough, I’m sure it can be found. There’s someone out there for everyone, all that bullshit. Shit, shit, and more fucking shit.
Love. Never known it.
Acceptance. Never had it.
Freedom. Depends on how you define it.
Only with Hadley it was all different. She loved me. Not in the climb on my cock and ride herself to oblivion way, I see so many women do. No, what Hadley and I shared even at our young age was a slow burn in your soul deep, she understood me way kind of love, companionship, and partnership. We were young. We were innocent and yet hardened by life. Even in all the dark, she found light with me.
She believed in me when I didn’t fucking believe in myself. Then she was gone.
She loved deep. She loved hard. She loved me.
Acceptance. Hadley took me at face value. No one cared to hear the story of my mother’s murder. The cops simply took me away and never put any resources into finding her killer. No one stopped in the deep south of Louisiana to give me a chance to explain. I saw him. Her killer. I know who did it. I remember finding her and seeing a figure running away. Deep in the recesses of my mind, I know I can identify him. Yet no one asked me back then. They didn’t question me. Instead, I was handed a pillowcase to fill as my new luggage and carted off to foster care. All the kids told me I was jinxed, a black soul one little girl said.
I wasn’t cursed.
Voodoo, black magic, I didn’t have the bad juju they all said I did.
Hadley didn’t look down on me for getting out of the system to face life on my own. She didn’t even gasp in surprise that I’m the one who found my mother’s body. She simply looked up at me with her midnight black eyes shimmering and said, “well you may be a bastard, but you’re still good to me Owen Maximus.”
She accepted who I was. She accepted where I came from. She accepted where I wanted to be … and it wasn’t living on the streets of NOLA.
Freedom. Hadley freed me from the chains of my past. She didn’t care where I came from or where I was headed. She only wanted to be with me.
Hadley gave me a simple freedom to be me. She freed me from society’s chains by not judging me. Hadley was my escape from all the bad.
Until she simply disappeared.

#WOTR #Review – Finding Gray (The Colloway Brothers Book 0.5) by K.L. Kreig

Leave a comment

31422305

Finding Gray is a Colloway Brothers short intro to Forsaking Gray. Get a peak into Gray and Livia’s story and see how they first fell in love.

Cocksure. Suave. Untouchable.

Gray Colloway is the very definition of these. He’s also sweet, drop dead gorgeous, and relentless in his pursuit of me. But I don’t let people in my inner bubble. That only leads to heartbreak. After I turn down his initial proposition for a date, he shows up where I work day after day until he finally wears me down and I give. I want to let him in. I do, but will Gray be able to truly break down barriers it took others a lifetime to shape?

Livia Kingsley is the entire sexy package. Outside of swimming curves and that angel’s face, she’s smart as hell, witty, and all fucking mine. I knew it the moment I laid eyes on her. Her resistance to give me a chance is cute and weak. And straight up futile. The harder she pushes me away, the harder I push back. But she gives in and our chemistry is off the charts hot, just as I knew it would be. And three years later when she agrees to be my wife, I am the happiest man alive.

Until she ruins me.

Goodreads

Amazon US

I picked this up as a freebie thinking this sounds like a good book that will be a quick read. Was I right this was a great quick read what I was not expecting was the amazing love story it was going to tell and the jaw dropping cliffhanger at the end.  If you do pick this up you will also want to get Forsaking Gray trust me you will be so sucked in by Gray and Livia you will want to know more.

Livia have a rough life her mother left her and her sister to deal with their alcoholic father. Livia worked at the pizza joint to make ends meet when her father failed. Little did she know her world was going to change when Gray walked through the door and sat in her section.

Gray knew there was something special about Livia when he first saw her knew she had to be his. He was persistent never gave up and finally broke Livia down and got her to agree to a date. After all Gray’s persistence and the best years of his life he asked Livia to be his wife. What happens next just floored me. I couldn’t figure out what went wrong why was this happening?

The chemistry between these two was off the charts. This was an amazing story I had to get Forsaking Gray and start it immediately I had to find out more about Gray and Livia. Great started to a series and way to hook me right from the start.

As a USA Today Bestselling author, I write stories that are deeply emotional with flawed characters, because humans ARE flawed and if we read about perfect characters living in their perfect world, first of all, snoozer, but secondly, we never experience the gratification of redemption.

Outside of writing, I’m just a regular ol’ Midwest girl who likes Game of Thrones and am obsessed with Modern Family and The Goldbergs. I run, I eat, I run, I eat. It’s a vicous cycle. I love carbs, but there’s love-hate relationship with my ass and thighs. Mostly hate. I like a good cocktail (oh hell…who am I kidding? I love any cocktail). I’m a huge creature of habit, but I’ll tell you I’m flexible. I read every single day and if I don’t get a chance…watch the hell out. My iPad and me: BFFs. I’m direct and I make no apologies for it. I swear too much. I love alternative music and in my next life I want to be a bad-ass female rocker. I hate, hate, hate spiders, telemarketers, liver, acne, winter and loose hairs that fall down my shirt (don’t ask, it’s a thing).

#WOTR #Review – The Fragile Line Series: Part One by Alicia Kobishop

Leave a comment

Series: The Fragile Line Series Parts 1-3
Author: Alicia Kobishop
Genre: New Adult Romance

 

“This story has everything. There’s love, loss, desire, passion and so much warmth between Chloe and Matt. They understand each other. Their connection is fierce. Their passion is combustible….I was blown away.” ~Verna of Verna Loves Books Blog (The Fragile Line: Part One)


“I absolutely loved this continuation of Matt & Chloe’s story! Again we get flawless writing, delicious angst, and scenes where the chemistry is super hot. When these two are together, you can feel their passion – they are perfect for each other.” ~Lori of BF Bookies Book Blog (The Fragile Line: Part Two)


“This book is so passionate and so real. Alicia’s writing will make you feel everything. Every struggle they have, every bit of pain they feel and the love. The love will flow through you.” ~Verna of Verna Loves Books (The Fragile Line: Part Three)

Love is the one emotion they just can’t shake off.

Part One of a Three-Part Story.

Chloe McCarthy has one rule when it comes to sex: one night, no strings. But for Logan Tanner, she made an exception. 

Big mistake.

When he breaks off their ongoing friends-with-benefits arrangement for someone else, reality hits her hard. She’s all alone and plummeting toward rock bottom. Until she runs into the one guy who can always make her smile. Matt Langston–mechanic by day, bouncer by night, ripped-and-tattooed-hot 24/7.
Matt would know that pink-tipped platinum-blonde hair anywhere. It’s Chloe, doing a half-naked walk of shame. He knows she’s no saint. Then again, neither is he–but he’s no douchebag either. Her slumped shoulders and tear-stained cheeks ignite his protective instincts even as his better sense warns him she’s a threat to his no-drama lifestyle.

As their friendship deepens, however, mutual desire reaches the boiling point. Chloe’s body hungers for Matt as a lover–but the last thing she wants is to ruin the best thing that’s ever happened to her with the best sex of her life…
Warning: This romance is appropriate for age 18+ only.
*The Fragile Line is a spin-off to The Fine Line, told in an addicting three-part romance novella series, with each part building on the last. Parts One, Two, and Three must be read in order. Reading The Fine Line first is not necessary, but will provide a further introduction to the characters which may enhance the overall reading experience.

 

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

UGH! I started this book and thought “OMG I hate Chloe” and “Ain’t no way I am going to want to see her happy” but then I read it and my heart breaks for her.  Chloe is a hot mess.  Her life is crazy.  She has had nothing but heartache and hurt which makes her kinnnnnda a crazy girl…Like boil a rabbit crazy girl…you get me???  Her on and off relationship with Logan has driven her right over the line of “Sane girls don’t act that way” line.

Matt, he met Chloe and enjoyed this spunky chick. He knows about her reputation but he gets a glimpse of her when her mask slips.  He helped her build herself back up and make her feel appreciated and even cared for.

The two have a fun dynamic of snarky attitude but some underlying chemistry.  I gotta say, Matt breaking down her walls made me really like Chloe and WANT a HEA for her.  The book ends abruptly so be ready to download book 2 to find out what happens next for the two. Thankfully for me all the books are out already so I don’t have to worry and wait longer than just a one-click!!

The only way to have her heart’s desire is to risk losing it all.


Part Two of a Three-Part Story

Chloe wants more than anything to FML–follow Matt’s lead. It feels right to be with him, even with his family. But in the past, every time she’s given her trust, it has torn a chunk out of her heart.

Things are moving too fast, but she feels powerless to put on the emotional brakes. She senses Matt is holding something back. Something that could spell the end of what they have.

Matt is ready to take the next step in his life. One dream calls to him with a once-in-a-lifetime career opportunity. The other–Chloe–sears his soul with eyes that tell him she’s not ready to follow.

Long ago, he gave forever love a chance and got burned in the most humiliating way imaginable. This time, the only thing he can offer is one night they can both look back on. And hope that one day, the warmth of that memory will draw her back into his arms.

Warning: This romance is appropriate for age 18+ only.

When the last spark of hope fizzles, love can light the way home.

Part Three of a Three-Part StoryIn her heart, Chloe knows she’s done the right thing to let Matt go. Her old life of clubbing, drinking, and hookups is over, but she isn’t finished growing into the person she wants to be, much less a woman who’s worthy of Matt’s love.She’s not exactly moving on, but she’s moving forward. Until she catches a glimpse of Matt on TV as one of the cast of the American Muscle reality show.And that’s not all. He’s holding hands with his co-star, Dalton Davis’s beautiful daughter, Ava.When Chloe walked away from Matt, he made a decision: he’d wait for her as long as it took. Meanwhile, he doesn’t see any harm pretending to be with Ava just to appease her father–at first. But he can’t pretend, not even for the cameras. Trouble is, Chloe has only seen half the story–the half that’s a lie.

It may take a tragedy to bring her close enough to tell her–and show her–the whole truth.

Warning: This romance is appropriate for age 18+ only.

#WOTRSponsor #review #Paranormal – Solis (Modern Descendants #2) by Elda Lore

Leave a comment

Event Sponsor

Solis (Modern Descendants, #2)

Veva Matron is a feisty girl raging with suppressed anger and distrust of men.
Solis Cronus is a blindingly beautiful, Greek god of a guy, who likes to play women.

An electric hatred thunders through each of them about the other until one night, lightning strikes. A world of secrets reveals the destiny of two at odds with one another, and clouds the line between love and hate. Can a lively girl find calm in the stormy tension of a boy made of sunshine and sin?

The mythical tale of Zeus and Hera reignites in this modern interpretation of enemies to lovers. Full of flirty sexual angst and teasing temptation, Solis might be the one man who can extinguish Veva’s angry fire and ignite a different sort of flame: desire.

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

Ok so Hades I fell in love with and didn’t think anyone could touch him annnd then I met Solis, AKA Son of Zeus and all time player struts by…uhm yeah I followed…LOL

So Veva (AKA Total snatch) is with Persephone after her heartbreak with Hades…sigh….that book…ok back on track.    Veva is not about to fall on love with a man annnnd then *Que the music* in rolls Solis….sin on a stick!!  This girl is not about to fall for some pretty boy player!!   (I love it when enemies fall in love with each other…HELLO Pride and Prejudice people!! )   The banter is always a fun part of the story as we watch these people unwillingly fall in love.

This couple’s love story is hawt and has this amazing chemistry and the burn ….let’s talk about the burn….it’s so slow and agonizing but yet soooo amazing!!  Yes people the slow burn of their story…EEEP.  I think that is a gift of LB’s.  She gives just enough tease and then runs away.

But yes this book will sit as a great read for me that is for sure.

Alter ego of L.B. Dunbar. A writer of mythical tales in the modern world.

#Review #Historical – Stealing the Rogues Heart by Erica Monroe

Leave a comment

Stealing the Rogue's Heart (The Rookery Rogues Book 4)

Scoundrels, thieves and rebels inhabit the rookeries–where the women are fierce and the men are dangerous. Are you willing to take the risk?

WHEN AN UNDERWORLD PRINCESS…
Beautiful, innocent Mina Mason has led a sheltered life as the sister to the most notorious crime lord in England. Her family’s wealth and expectations keep her in a gilded cage, never able to act on her true desires. Like kissing — and engaging in far more scandalous behavior with–Charlie Thatcher, her childhood best friend. As a member of a rival gang, Charlie is distinctly off-limits.

FALLS FOR THE WRONG MAN…
Charlie Thatcher has known since he was a boy where his loyalties should lie: with the Chapman Street Thieves, who saved him from a brutal death in the dark alleys of the Ratcliffe rookery. As a bartender for the Three Boars public house, he deals in information and secrets, protecting his fellow brothers with his mind and his fists. But when one of those members threatens Mina’s safety, Charlie’s primal, protective instincts are triggered–and his defense of her puts them both in danger.

PASSION MAY BE THEIR DOWNFALL.
——–
Stealing the Rogue’s Heart is a dark, gritty, and sexy romantic suspense set in pre-Victorian working class London. While it is book four in the Rookery Rogues series, it can be read as a stand-alone historical romance novella.

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

Ok so I love Historical books.  When my friend tells me “You need this book in your life” I grab it when the author offers me a copy ANNNND I owe my friend a big ol’ high 5.  I loved this book!!  Now I will admit I was a BIT sad that there weren’t any Dukes or Lords because that is the only historicals I have read.  HOWEVER, after I settled in to the story I was totally digging it.  It was like mafia families meets Romeo and Juliet.  How in the heck is that possible you ask?  Dude I have no clue but it just WAS!!  And I think that is why I ended up loving it.  Romeo and Juliet is awesome and then you throw in the Sopranos…GOLD!

Mina and Charlie are best friends BUT, yup you guess it, they are in rival gangs.  Now the two gangs are at an uneasy truce but when someone says something to Mina that is “not appropriate to the Princess of the King family”…ALL OUT WAR happens because Charlie defends her honor….sigh…so sweet.

The book is about Mina not giving up on Charlie and trying to figure out a way to be with the man she loves….FYI I love her plan.  I mean I died when she went to tell him her thoughts and his stunned expression…..BEST. EVER!!

I loved the ending and Charlie’s thought about his past, present and future…..gotta say I might have gotten a bit misty because he may have been a bad man but his heart is pure sugar.

This is the 4th book in a series.  I have not read any of the books. I had Zero issues picking it up and rolling with it.  I would say when my time allows it, I might like to take a read at the books and I will grab the next books when they become available because the cast of characters that need an HEA…I mean come on Cy…Jane…LET IT HAPPEN!!!!!

www.facebook.com/groups/tmcromerfanpage

When and Why did you start to write?

I’ve always toyed with the idea of being an author from a young age. My first story FINDING YOU was 3/4 completed by the time I was 25. It sat in a computer file for close to 20 years before I finally dusted it off and modernized the story for publishing in 2015. This started a new career for me. I’m thrilled with the journey to date.

What authors do you always read or suggest to others?

I love authors who make me feel strong emotion: laughter, love, heartache. Some of my favorite for that are Jill Barnett, Cynthia St. Aubin, Julia Quinn, and a whole host of others.

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

How tough it is to get the word out about your books. Marketing is tough and don’t let anyone tell you differently. I have a great respect for anyone in the marketing field.

What are you working on now?

I have a few stories going at one time. I’m still creating novellas for the Stonebrooke series, and I have plans to create a few novels for the Holt series.

When writing are you a pantser or plotter?

I’m a total panster. The story hits me, and I have to get it typed immediately. I’ll be partially through, and the plot takes a major twist. I follow where it leads most times.

 Sarah O’Rourke’s book review
I receive this book from the author for an honest review.
What a great, spicy short story from one of my favorite authors.
This story is a sweet story about a couple who have been married for 10 years but seem to be growing apart. Abby and Whit have had a great passionate love story. They have had a few tragic things happen that would cause great duress for any marriage. Abby and Whit get help from Lucy, Abby’s younger sister, who kick starts this couple into talking in the language of love vs taking to therapists about their troubles. Although I gotta admit, I loved Lucy a lot too. Her telling her sister she will be there with a shovel to bury the body if needed had me cracking up.
If you have read any of the stories from these ladies you will know to expect humor and some hawt sexy times in the plot. Any fan of their other books will love this new story as well.

Sarah O’Rourke is the alter ego of two best friends who have taken their passion for romantic fiction and erotica to the publishing world. Born and raised in the southern United States, one lives near Louisville, KY, while the other resides in Atlanta, Georgia. Neither is ever very far from a tall glass of sweet iced tea, their dog-eared copies of Gone With the Wind, or their Steel Magnolias DVDs!

Formerly an accountant and a chemist, they are now overworked, stay-at-home moms who adore their children, their husbands…and writing about love in every way possible!

#Review – Monster Mine, Fear University #3 by Meg Collett

Leave a comment

 

 

I, Sunny Lyons, am chasing my best friend’s ghost.

Or at least I thought I was until Ollie calls me on the phone and tells me to come to Anchorage, Alaska. We find her in a renovated warehouse surrounded by halflings and Hex, her father and the greatest aswang warrior who has ever lived.

While trying to protect Ollie from the people who want to use her as a weapon, I stumble across a secret the halflings will kill to protect—a secret that could save the man I love. I may be the Cowardly Lyon, but I’m willing to do whatever it takes to protect my friends—even if it kills me.

 

My name is Ollie Volkova, and I am not broken.

Though my friends may say otherwise after I spent three weeks with a sadistic madman. They think I’m crazy, but when a monster called the Manananggal surfaces on the outskirts of Anchorage, my father offers to tell me about my mother in exchange for my help in hunting down the winged creature. It’s a deal I can’t pass up. Not when my mother’s past is so important to my future.

But the more I learn about her, the more I discover about my monster’s soul, and when my father reveals the final, darkest truth, the decision I make will change the course of my life.

 

*Warning: Recommended for mature readers due to sexual content, violence, and language.*

 

Goodreads

 

Truths and lies, twists and turns…Fate. Ollie was kidnapped and tortured. Her friends are on a never ending hunt to find her, to help her. Turns out that Ollie has reunited with her father who she learns isn’t all the monster that everyone believes him to be, at least that is what she is trying to figure out. She learns so much about her mom and how her parents came to be, why her mother left, and why her father keeps fighting. Sunny is with Luke and Hatter looking for Ollie. Ollie reaches out to them and they come to the sanctuary that Ollie is at.

So many demons…Luke is dealing with the truth about Ollie being a halfling, Hatter is dealing with his manic episodes, Sunny is dealing with trying to protect everyone, and Ollie is putting her pieces back together.

The story goes back and forth between Ollie’s and Sunny’s POV. You are totally immersed in this story. Ollie is struggling with deciding where she belongs. With her father, Hex, and the halflings or if she needs to go back to Fear University. The lesser evil, right? They are all faced with major decisions, they fight with themselves and their demons to do what is right.

The story is jam packed with…with everything. Action, love, and all around badassery. There are so many warring emotions that you can’t help but to feel like you are right in the middle.

The Fear University series is one of my favorites and the author did not disappoint with Monster Mine!

Just One Look by Deb Julienne – On a secret mission for her father, Diana Clay aka ‘Diana Tolliver’ finds herself alone on a singles cruise. She befriends a passenger and they play a game…date for a cruise. Each must pick out the others date for the duration of the cruise. Between her research on the ship and her new “boyfriend” she has her hands full.

USA Today and Amazon Bestselling Author Deb Julienne has penned multiple romantic comedy and western novels and anthologies. While some say truth is stranger than fiction, her experiences run more along the lines of a slapstick comedy. She makes her own Limoncello…enough said.

After the day job, she loves to play in the kitchen concocting award-winning jams, jellies, preserves, and sauces (with alcohol of course). Born and raised in San Jose, California, she now resides in her own little bit of heaven in the Sierra Tahoe National Forest Basin, with her husband of 35 years, their three sons and one daughter, and five very precious grandchildren with number six on the way.

Pirated Pixie by Shea McMaster – Irene Lundquist has no plans for romance while on the cruise with her jilted best friend and his groomsmen. She’s surprised when Dutch Marshal’s good looks and charm do nothing to help her relax, and everything to steal her heart. For Dutch, things get complicated when the best man in charge of the group plans is a gorgeous pixie-sized redhead woman who lights his fire. Can either of them make it through the singles cruise and remain single, or will they get the happily ever after neither of them was looking for?

Shea McMaster lives for traditional romance. Born in New Orleans, raised in California, Shea got moved to Alaska in 1977, where she attended high school before running back to California to get her English degree from Mills College. Alas, once back home she met and fell in love with her own forever true hero, a born and raised Alaska man. Since then she’s had a love-hate relationship with America’s largest state.
With her one and only son grown and on his own, Shea is fortunate to spend her days playing with the furry child, and engaged in daydreaming, turning those dreams into romantic novels and novellas featuring damsels in distress rescued by their own brains and hunky heroes. She also writes under the steamy romances under the name Morgan O’Reilly.

Michele Shriver is a National and International best-selling author of women’s fiction and contemporary romance. Her books feature flawed-but-likeable characters in real-life settings. She’s not afraid to break the rules, but never stops believing in happily ever after. Michele counts among her favorite things a good glass of wine, a hockey game, and a sweet and sexy book boyfriend, not necessarily in that order.

Cinderella at Sea by Ellen Wilder – When girl next door Manda Reilly discovers hero country singer Hunter Cross is onboard her singles cruise, Manda finds herself indulging in the exotic. Hunter’s heroism goes more than skin-deep. Can the man she’s known forever really be her one true love?

Ellen Wilder was born and raised in Indiana. She is happily married to her husband of five years and enjoys raising their two girls and one boy in the house where she grew up. They have a border collie/corgi mix named Loki.

Her parents started reading to Ellen and her siblings at a very young age. They quickly tired of books for younger children and turned to chapter books like Tarzan, The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings forging Ellen’s love for reading.

Ellen started writing in Junior High with an assignment from her computer writing teacher. Her first attempt at a modern day Old Yeller crossover with NYPD Blue was “awful”, but that didn’t stop the inspiration from flowing. Ellen now writes contemporary romance novels with a realistic twist to them. If you’re looking for fairy tales, you won’t find them here as her characters deal with real life issues. She loves helping people with their writing, paying forward the help that she has received allowing her to be where she is today.
