Elena M. Reyes

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

Hi!!!!
I’m Elena M. Reyes and I write about dirty-talking alphas and the strong women they love. I also love long walks on the beach and margaritas. Actually, all booze is more than okay in my book; except gin. That is a huge no go. Lol

Where is your favorite place to write and what food must be present?

Favorite place to write…in the shower. Literally, I get the best ideas in there. As for food, all I need is COFFEE. Lots of it. Like amounts that should be illegal. 😉

What are you favorite things about attending signings?

Meeting people. I enjoy talking with everyone/discussing what we love about the books we read. The genres we enjoy the most–which for me is paranormal–and what is a must read at that moment. BTW it’s a huge surprise to people that I am a paranormal junkie!!! <3

What author would you love to meet (Who is your unicorn author)?

KATY EVANS!!!! I lover her. She gave me REMINGTON TATE and that alone is enough of a reason. He is EVERYTHING. <3

What author would you love to write with?

That’s a very hard one, but I will say that the authors I want to work with the most are all my closest friends. I admire these women. See the talent and respect their drive. 🙂

What is your favorite memory so far as an author?

The first time a reader asked me for my autograph. I didn’t understand it. Why would they want my signature? Why would they stand in a line for me? That single moment just left me walking on a cloud. Still has me smiling.

See Me

See Me (The Novus Pack Series Book 1)

Blurb –

Throughout history, The Lady, Goddess of the Lycan world, has gifted werewolf packs with humans who carry her mark. Theodora Morrissey’s plans to return to college for her graduate degree are ended when she is awakened by an otherworldly voice on a rarely used airstrip in Nebraska. Injured and disoriented, she has no idea the discoloration on her back has marked her as a Seer, and that she is now a possession—and the prisoner—of the Novus Pack of Lycans.

To the Novus pack, the word of their leader, their Laird, is the law. With compelling gray eyes and long dark hair, Raider Black rules his pack with intelligence and ruthlessness. To cement the security of his pack, Black has committed to mate another Packleader’s daughter. But he’s finding it impossible to fight his attraction to the pack’s alluring new Seer, claiming her as his own.

Sweet, fearless, and unintentionally funny, Theo upends Black’s world and pushes the boundaries of his rules. How far is Black willing to go, and what will he sacrifice, to save both his pack and the human Seer who’s found a way not only into his bed, but his heart?

REVIEW

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

Before I start this review, I am going to let you in on a little secret. I am a paranormal whore. I love love love paranormal AND shifters are like the icing on the cake for me. So, if you write a paranormal and I read it, I will judge/rate harshly. Its my favorite genre and its my go to read when I want something to read. With all that stated up front, you gotta know what I am about to say is deep and true to my soul……I. Loved. This. Book!! Like WTF!! It blew me outta the damn water. I will admit I was a bit skeptical about the whole Lady Goddess stuff at the beginning. I wondered if I would dig it or if it would be something I found to be an OK read. FRIENDS, this book rocked my world!! Like legit, ROCKED ME HARD!!!!

I absolutely loved the world M. Jayne (Melanie) created. I loved her mythology. I loved her side characters and seriously I am hard crushing over Lore BUT I am also scared outta my mind at him. Raider Black is our main character and he is so tough and bad ass but so tender when he wants to be but also please remember he is uber bad ass!!! Theo is thrust into this NEW world. She stumbles but runs into it with eyes wide open. When she is given her new title in the Pack, she tried to be 100% the best she can be. Her friends Solle and Conal are the best companions for her. They are loyal to Black but guide her and help her understand the human world is not at all like the Pack’s world.’

The story was so wonderfully written. I seriously kept saying “one more chapter before bed” and then the next thing I knew it was 11PM and I and 10% of the book left!! Might as well just read it and appreciate the reason for being grumpy the next day was because of the wonderful story telling. I thought the flow of the story was amazing. You were always wondering what would happen next. I know the angst of the two main characters fighting their pull and draw to one another was amazing. When they finally give in to one another it only made their bond THAT much stronger. The character banter was hilarious, but the emotional draw of the characters made me so excited for this new series!

I am so excited for the next book and wonder where the story will take us because I am totally hooked on the Novus Pack!! #TeamNovus #TeamLore #TeamSweetBabyJesusThoseWereHotScenes

January 15, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

Today we have the release blitz of Love and Pancakes by Lacey Black! Check out this fantastic contemporary romance and be sure to grab your copy on January 15^th!

Title: Love and Pancakes

Author: Lacey Black

Genre: Contemporary Romance

About Love and Pancakes:

Marissa Grayson’s dream went up in smoke. A devastating fire has ripped apart her family’s bed and breakfast, leaving her off-kilter and scrambling to repair the damage. What she doesn’t need, or have time for, is Rhenn Burleski. Sexy, confident, and dangerous to her heart. A man who clearly knows his way around the female body and will leave the moment the sheets start to cool. Yet that doesn’t stop her from making a deal with the devil himself.

Work hard, play harder. That’s Rhenn’s life motto. An electrician by day, Rhenn turns it up at night, always with a different lady friend in tow. He makes sure they know the score: he’s not looking for anything more than one night of fun. However, he knows the second he meets the shy daughter of the bed and breakfast’s owner that his life is never going to be the same. As hard as he tries, he just can’t resist one taste.

What happens when their time is up and Rhenn must leave, returning to his old life? Will they be able to walk away, hearts unscathed, or will their time together prove to be nothing more than a fading memory?

Exclusive Excerpt:

“Our first time together isn’t going to be on the floor or on the table.”

“I’m not opposed to the counter,” I whisper, apparently loud enough for him to hear.

Rhenn chuckles. “I promise you, our first time is going to be better than this,” he adds, nodding toward the floor, and believe it or not, I’m disappointed by this development. “Right now, my friends are probably getting ready for our day of sailing. We’re going to head back to my boat, you’re going to throw on a swimsuit, and I’m going to enjoy the fuck out of watching you prance around my boat. And tonight? I’m going to love sliding into that shitty-ass fold out bed, and do you know why?”

“Why?” My mouth is Sahara dry.

“Because you’re going to be beside me.”

“And because you’ll get sex?” I tease with a smile.

He shakes his head. “No, no sex tonight. Not with Nick and Meghan on board. When I finally have my way with you, there’ll be no one else around to hear your moans, Angel. No one else will know how many times I’ve made you come. No one but me.”

Then he kisses me again with a hunger that feels as if it won’t ever be quenched. Like he might die if he doesn’t have another taste. I know right then and there, I’m in trouble. I’m completely over my head with this man, which is why I must keep my heart completely out of the equation. In fact, I’m leaving it here at the house. No way am I taking it with me, allowing it to catch one glimpse of the man who kisses me like I’m the very air he breathes.

“And at the end of the two weeks, we walk away.” I say the words aloud, as confirmation to him, but to me, as well. Saying them makes it true, right?

“At the end of my time here, you probably won’t hear from me again.” Even though those are the words I expected to hear, actually listening to him say them causes a little hitch in my heartbeat. See? That’s why my heart is going to be locked in the cabinet at home and not allowed anywhere near my time with Rhenn.

“Just promise me one thing,” I say, pushing aside the heavy feeling in my chest and digging deep for the girl who’s engaging in a no-strings relationship.

“Anything.”

“Promise me you won’t fall in love with me.” I mean it as a joke, as a reminder of what this really is, but I don’t anticipate the catch in my breath and the slight pang of sadness when his eyes twinkle with laughter.

“No worries there, Angel. Love isn’t my thing.”

#WOTR19 #Bookbub #SaleBlitz : King by Kerri Ann

January 15, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

Title: King

Series: Broken Bows MC Duet #1

Author: Kerri Ann

Genre: MC Romance

Published: July 19, 2018

Why the hell did it have to be her?

The bartender at Four Horseman was a walking wet dream and now she’s my damn job.

I thought it would be simple. Get intel from the witness. Ignore her sass and sexuality.

I was wrong. She’s more than I bargained for.

I may risk everything to save her from her fate.

My life, my future….my club.

Busta… My jailer.

I thought he was good-looking at the bar. No more.

The man is arrogant, ruthless: a complete prick.

I need a way out of this and through him is the best.

I need to find a chink in his armor.

I’ll do what it takes to gain my freedom.

Anything to get free.

Except giving him the intel he wants.

Mother of two insanely (well trained) sarcastic men, wife to a dangerously smolder inducing grumble bunny (fireman), and friend to some amazing ladies (you know who you are). Thanks for reading, thanks for being a friend, and I look forward to meeting you in the future for drinks, danger and laughs.

Living in Northern Ontario, Canada, Kerri loves to read, travel and find new reasons to write you fantastic love stories. Remember, not all love is clean. Dark, light, angsty, sexually charged and twisted—that’s her genre.

It’s heart wrenching stories where the muse directs her. As the instrument of their lives, the stories are told piece by piece with emotion, that has the story read like a movie. You can hope for the good guy to win, but it won’t always happen. She can’t guarantee an HEA (happily ever after) or HFN (happy for now), because life doesn’t always have those.

Enjoy the OMG’s and tears. Tear your hair out, toss a book or two, because I want you to feel their pain too. As they live it, absorb it on the pages.

#WOTR19 #NewRelease #review #erotica – Anaconda Nights by Elissa Daye

January 14, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

Anaconda Nights

Some say ignorance is bliss, at least that’s what Tinley tries to tell herself when she sees the fresh meat on display at Anaconda. When she steps on the party bus, she has no idea it will be leading her to an exclusive resort with escorts that cater to a rich woman’s every need.

At first, she is afraid to give in, but when Adam enters the scene she can’t seem to get enough of him. His hard body, sweet silky voice, his eyes…if she could actually see them. All the men at Anaconda wear masks to protect their identities while keeping them mysteriously sexy at the same time.

All the same, she can’t help but wonder what would happen if she just tore the mask off. Would she be pleased with what she saw, or would the person beneath the mask lead her down a whole other rabbit hole altogether?

Goodreads

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

When Elissa asked if I would like to read her new steamy novel, I said sure thing. Who can pass up steamy right??? I liked the premise of the story and the whole “mystery man” so I jumped in.

Our girl Tinley is a hot mess. She is so worried that people don’t take her seriously because she is a woman, that she works herself to the bone. When her sister is getting married and is having her bachelorette night, she forces Tinley to come. She doesn’t tell her where they are going which is essentially a legal reverse brothel. Instead of the ladies doing the servicing, it’s the men who are. Needless to say, Tinley freaks. When she meets her “escort” for the night she is a bit stunned at how good of a time they had and books another weekend with him.

Seeing Tinley realize she can be a woman, feminine annnnd formidable in the workplace was priceless. Tinley reconnects with herself and soon embraces her sensual female side thanks to her time with Adam. When the next weekend happens and we find out who Adam is really…..welllll, I think we all saw it coming .

Seeing Tinley deal with her feelings and emotions while making major life changes after her weekend was awesome. We also see Tinley making Adam work for a chance at a future with her. The couple have some serious issues because she is worried she can’t satisfy man who has been “hooking” up with multiple ladies or so she thinks.

I enjoyed the story and liked the ending scene. It was really sweet but super funny as well.

Ever since childhood, I have enjoyed reading stories as an escape from life. When I was a teenager I started to write my own stories that kept me entertained whenever I ran out of books to read. When I was accepted into Illinois Summer School for the Arts in my Junior year of High School, I knew I wanted to become a writer. I graduated from Illinois State University in December 1999 with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and began my teaching career, hoping to find moments to write in my free time.

After seven years of teaching, I decided to focus on my writing and made the decision to put my teaching years behind me so that I could create the stories I had always dreamed of. I am now happily married and a stay at home mom. I try my best to master the art of multitasking to get everything accomplished and write in any spare moment I can find.

#WOTR19 #TwinsiefortheDayBecky #Review – Angel’s Collar by Anna Hague

January 13, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

Angel's Collar (Love Strictly Tested Book 1)

I have it all…until he shows me more.

I didn’t intentionally spill wine all over the most beautiful guy in the room, and one look at those icy-blue eyes brings on a major lapse in coherent speech. Jordan Caldera tells me his secret and wants me to join him. This is where my journey into submission begins.

So much about BDSM freaks me out, but at the same time, I can’t help but be intrigued. When I imagine Jordan doing those things to me, I can’t resist the adventure. Mind-blowing sex aside, my life is changing at an alarming rate and getting very complicated. Between balancing my career and my best friend’s concerns, the secrets I’m keeping are killing me.

What am I willing to risk for the new lifestyle I’ve embraced…and the man I love?

Goodreads

Review by Becky

I received the book for my honest review.

This book was different than others have read. I absolutely enjoyed it! Following Emma (Jordan’s Angel) step into the BDSM arena and learn added reality for me. Everyone has to start somewhere. Emma and Jordan feel deeply in love and had a connection from the first meeting. Sizzle!!! Dayum!!! Who wouldn’t want to give it a go with a hottie like Jordan??

We followed Emma and Jordan through their sexual growth together. It didn’t come without difficulties or strain on their relationship. Emma’s bestie, Sabrina, walked out of Emma’s live when she figured out and was able to confirm that Emma was a collared sub. The loss of her best friend and her job hit Emma hard. She lost herself and her marriage and the bedroom arrangement began to suffer.

Jordan and Emma stuck together. With Jordan’s BDSM knowledge, he was able to put together the ground rules for their relationship to regain their stronger than ever marriage and HOT, HOT, HOT bedroom action. Emma tells her story to a reporter, Jessica…….not as Emma, but as a disguised woman.

Anna leaves us with hanging when Emma answers the hotel door where the interview was held to see her long lost bestie….walk into the hotel room and ask if the reporter she talked to was Jessica…. Uh oh……there’s some shit behind that! Kudos Anna!

For 25 years, I’ve worked as a sports writer. I decided now was the time to pursue romance fiction as an author. I found a great group of RWA author friends who have helped me tremendously.
I get great support from my husband, and although they don’t know it, my three parrots and dog give me a huge boost everyday.

#WOTR19 #ThrowbackReview – Beneath the Skin, College Obsession Romance Book 2 by Daryl Banner

January 13, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

This is the second book in the College Obsession Romance series. This book is a standalone but has recurring characters from the first book.

They call me a player, but really I’m a lover.
I fall in love seven days a week.

Give me a few minutes and I’ll charm my way into any woman’s heart. Give me a few hours and I’ll have her flat on her back, headboard dented, panties on the lampshade, and begging for more – guaranteed.

Until I’m knocked off my feet by Nell, the bangin’ art school chick with the killer bod.

No, it isn’t some love-at-first-sight kind of thing. In fact, I hate how she looks at me with those sharp, gorgeous eyes and I’m tripping over my feet, my swagger lost.

What is it about this woman that drives me crazy?

She deflects all my advances. She doesn’t laugh at my jokes.
She makes me feel like I’m the joke.

Now, she’s got her hands on a new art project.

I’d rather she had them on me.

**** If you haven’t read “Read My Lips” – the first book in this series – don’t worry: the FULL novel is included with your copy of Beneath The Skin! PLUS, Read My Lips contains a *bonus* epilogue exclusive to this Kindle edition that you won’t want to miss. ****

The College Obsession Romance series centers around a group of friends and the relationships they form during their time at a small-town Texas school. They are angsty, steamy new adult novels with HEAs and NO cheating. Although they are obsession-themed romances, there are no stalkers or psychos!

Goodreads

This is what happens when the player becomes the played! Not intentional by any means but Brant is the player….at least that is what everyone says. He thinks with his second head all of the time. But when he is caught in a tricky position by Nell, he all of a sudden can’t get her out of his head. The interest in other women leave and he his swagger has vanished. It is completely hilarious seeing Brant trip over himself trying to get and keep Nell’s attention. Nell is the tortured artist who decides to give Brant a whirl. She tries to do what she can to scare him off but Brant doesn’t learn and keeps coming back for more. These two characters are completely different but the antics and shenanigans that they get into will keep you wanting more. Then again, opposites attract. The characters complement each other in an amazing way. The perfect love/hate relationship. As they get to know each other we get to see a completely different side to each character. The best thing about these characters and the story is that you feel that you are right in the story and you can relate to what each one is going through. I found myself smiling and laughing and the next minute my heart strings were being pulled. Bravo, Daryl Banner! You did it again! Looking forward to the next story.

T.M. Cromer

Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

T.M. Cromer

Where is your favorite place to write and what food must be present?

Favorite spot to write? The couch in my living room, but I like to plot in my kayak – preferably while on the lake, but I’ll sit in it in my yard if I have too. Yes, there is an unhealthy attachment there. I have a handy-dandy supply of chocolate always at the ready. I call it my brain food. 😉

What are you favorite things about attending signings?

Definitely the fans! It always blows me away at how welcoming and appreciative they are.

What author would you love to meet (Who is your unicorn author)?

I think it would have to be J.K. Rowlings because I admire her so much. I mean, what an inspiration, right?

What author would you love to write with?

Jill Barnett. Granted, I’d have to switch genres to Historical, but I don’t see a problem with that. 🙂 For the record, she’s a doll!

What is your favorite memory so far as an author?

It has to be from my first reader/author con. From across the room, a woman screamed and drew everyone’s attention. As she charged toward me, I looked behind me to see who she was rushing for. It was me! She nearly broke my ribs; she hugged me so tightly. Good times!

Twinsie Angie’s Review of Burning Resolutions

I received this book for an honest review.
*Snort* Yes I am still laughing at this book. I mean if you like funny and insane then this my friends is a book for you. I mean the first chapter had me LAUGHING so hard and out loud. It’s an over the top yet so much fun read. I think that if you enjoyed Tara Sivec’s writing then you will need to read these as well!
Erica, the main character is soo me….packing on a few pounds and hating the way she looks she decided to go to the gym. Holy Mother of God who is the work out sadist…errr…coach?? Why yes hottie from high school Zach that’s who! The banter had me cracking up at parts and laughing so hard. When the two are flirting and thinking about the good old high school days there is a bit of drama which causes Erica and Zach to spend more and more time together which makes them become more and more attracted to each other. The chemistry was hot and their relationship was a wild ride. The suspense storyline was good but you can kiiiiiiinda figure it out but the twist we get was something I wasn’t expecting!!
Yes there were times I was gonna vagina punch Erica for letting her insecurities push Zach away and same to him with a solid nut punch because he would compare Erica to women from his past but generally I loved the two. I laughed so hard and was thrilled when the book 2’s story line started to take shape…man Mason and Shondra are gonna be so much fun to read because he opened his mouth and inserts his foot A LOT around her!!

#WOTR19 #Review #MFM #Novella – The Trouble with Angels by Maggie Adams

January 11, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

The Trouble with Angels

Christine Baxter was having a helluva night. Her blind date had run out on her and the check. She had run into a mugger trying to steal her purse and succeeding. Finally, her beloved Beetle, Pinkie, had run out of gas on a deserted highway. Her only hope was a dimly lit club sign on the other side of a deep embankment riddled with trash. Apparently, her guardian angel had the night off.

Gabriel Easton and Michael Westmoreland were best friends looking for that special woman to share their lives and their bed. When the beautiful blonde literally fell through their club door, they thought their prayers had been answered. Michael knew she was sent from heaven. Gabriel felt she was hell on heels. Both agreed that she was perfect for them.

And Christine? Well, she thought she was in a lot of trouble.

Goodreads

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

Who doesn’t love a good Ménage??? I don’t know anyone who would pass up the chance to read a couple of hawt Doms falling in love with a sweet, bratty, sassy, and completely clueless submissive!!

I enjoyed reading this very short and quick read by Maggie. The story line is simple and quick for a lovely afternoon read.

Michael and Gabriel are everything you want to have in Doms. Christine would totally be me…clueless to the fact they want more from her then just a book keeper and friend.

The drama with the Christine’s ex and the threesome’s trouble because of him gives you a little but of a plot twist but the ending did make me giggle when “the surgeon” and “the pirate” came out to play.

All in all I liked the story and would read more of these characters if Maggie wrote more.

#WOTR19 #Review – Promises by Aleatha Romig

January 10, 2019 Angie J Leave a comment

The twisted and intriguing storytelling that you loved in Consequences and Infidelity continues with the epic conclusion of the all-new alpha anti-hero in the dark romance series Web of Sin, by New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig.

Have you been Aleatha’d?

Learn the truth behind the secrets and lies.

Surrounded by secrets and lies, can promises be believed?

Promises is book three—Sterling and Araneae’s epic conclusion—of the acclaimed Web of Sin trilogy.

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

I have been eagerly awaiting this release. The last book left me wondering what Kennedy/Araneae would do. When she is cornered what will she do? Pick Sterling or will she betray him???

I Could. Not. Put. This. Book. Down. Family be damned!!! The twists and turns were epic and totally in Aleatha style.

Sterling is the PERFECT Anti-Hero. We watch this arrogant prick change with each encounter he had with Araneae. We see his dark becoming a little bit lighter due to her love, rose colored glasses, and constant support even when he locks her in the glass tower.

Araneae. DAMN she is a tough cookie. She is never weak but maybe a little naïve to how the world works even with her past history. When we see her push back with each command Sterling gives her and we see him bend a smidge for her…sign….I mean he started to ASK not COMMAND. That is huge for him. LOL

I loved how each step of the book we uncover more and more of the reason of why Araneae’s birth farther did what he did. We start to learn more and more about her birth mother and “adoptive” family too and the roles they played in her upbringing. But what I loved was the “key” to everything was right where it all began.

This is another epic read for me from this author. I can’t say enough about the chemistry between the characters. Its so steamy and hawt. I loved the family element from Araneae’s past, Sterling’s past, and their present family of friends. I would love to see Reid and Lorna plus Winnie and Patrick get some book time *Wiggle eyes* but I am STOKED to see Mason is getting a book. I hope we will get a look Sterling and Araneae to see what they are up too in this series.
