<b style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">Rosalie Holloway put it all on the line for the Chaos Motorcycle Club.</b><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: "merriweather" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">Informing to Chaos on their rival club—her man’s club, Bounty—Rosalie knows the stakes. And she pays them when her man, who she was hoping to scare straight, finds out she’s betrayed him and he delivers her to his brothers to mete out their form of justice.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: "merriweather" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">But really, Rosie has long been denying that, as she drifted away from her Bounty, she’s been falling in love with Everett “Snapper” Kavanagh, a Chaos brother. Snap is the biker-boy-next door with the snowy blue eyes, quiet confidence and sweet disposition who was supposed to keep her safe... and fell down on that job.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: "merriweather" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">For Snapper, it’s always been Rosalie, from the first time he saw her at the Chaos Compound. He’s just been waiting for a clear shot. But he didn’t want to get it after his Rosie was left bleeding, beat down and broken by Bounty on a cement warehouse floor. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: "merriweather" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">With Rosalie a casualty of an ongoing war, Snapper has to guide her to trust him, take a shot with him, build a them...</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;" />
<b style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">And fold his woman firmly in the family that is Chaos.</b></div>

I used to wonder what happened to Rosalie after reading Own the
Wind. I used to tell myself it’s because I really wanted her to have her own
story. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I felt that she was such a good character and that she too deserves a
happy ending. It was kind of sad to see that she was so hooked up on
her feelings for Shy and that he didn't give her any second thought when he dumped her for Tab. It was hard for me to see her with someone
else after that but when I got my hands on this book I literally do not know how I would
feel. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Let me just start by saying that Ms. Ashley delivered this book very well.
I started enjoying the book and got quite intrigued from page 1. Even though it
was a little bit shorter than most of Ms. Ashley’s books, I actually got a hang
of this one. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
The book started with Rosalie brutally got beaten up and ended in the hospital with purple-black bruises, broken ribs, scrapes, cuts, and a broken heart. She put her life on the line and in return it back fired. After everything she had sacrificed it all went to nothing. So she decided then and there she was done. Done with men, done with Chaos, but then, Snapper, one of the brothers, is far from being done with her.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I find it understandable that Rosalie had some type of
issues that she needs to resolve on her own specially on what happened to her. It was hard for her to find that certain someone to fill the gap of yearning from her father. She was looking for the right man who would make her feel loved. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At first she found those in Shy, he showed her a window to that world she desperately wanted but knowing that didn't end well when Shy dropped her like a hot brick without a second glance.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then along came Beck, she also went into deep with him, probably because they both belonged to a motorcycle club and that they look exactly alike. Unfortunately, that didn't end well with him too, with her beaten up and ended in the hospital.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This then lead us to Snapper. Now, he is the kind of man who never backs down on a challenge. I was happy that Snapper didn’t give
up on her and have proven himself even from the beginning that he's worthy of her love.</div>

<strong>About ROUGH RIDE:</strong></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Rosalie Holloway put it all on the line for the Chaos Motorcycle Club.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Informing to Chaos on their rival club—her man’s club, Bounty—Rosalie knows the stakes. And she pays them when her man, who she was hoping to scare straight, finds out she’s betrayed him and he delivers her to his brothers to mete out their form of justice.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
But really, Rosie has long been denying that, as she drifted away from her Bounty, she’s been falling in love with Everett “Snapper” Kavanagh, a Chaos brother. Snap is the biker-boy-next door with the snowy blue eyes, quiet confidence and sweet disposition who was supposed to keep her safe…and fell down on that job.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
For Snapper, it’s always been Rosalie, from the first time he saw her at the Chaos Compound. He’s just been waiting for a clear shot. But he didn’t want to get it after his Rosie was left bleeding, beat down and broken by Bounty on a cement warehouse floor.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
With Rosalie a casualty of an ongoing war, Snapper has to guide her to trust him, take a shot with him, build a them…</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
And fold his woman firmly in the family that is Chaos.</h3>

<strong>EXCERPT: </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My dad had been a biker. He was a nomad when it came to that kind of thing (or, really, any kind of thing). He accepted being tied down by his woman and his daughter only, not anything else. Not a job. Not a mortgage. Not a membership to a club. He hung with a lot of them, including Chaos (in fact, Hammer, sadly now deceased, but one of the founding members of Chaos, had been my father’s best friend).
But he’d never hung with Bounty.
“Don’t like the feel of them,” I’d heard him mutter years ago. “If you’re an outlaw, own the outlaw. If you’re not, own that. You can’t wanna be a Gypsy Joker. You either are or you aren’t. They wanna be. But they aren’t. That shit just ain’t right and it could get dangerous.”
He’d been right.
It got dangerous.
I should have known.
I should have followed my dad.
Mom and me had done it all our lives, job to job, house to house, city to city.
Why I stopped…
Damn.
I knew why I’d stopped.
I’d wanted Shy; Shy, who reminded me of Dad.
And when I couldn’t have him, I’d gone looking.
I’d wanted what my mom had.
I’d wanted that sweetness. That love.
That devotion.
I’d wanted the stability that just seeped down deep into your bones from all that no matter the job changing, the scenery changing, the amount of times you boxed up a house.
Stability had nothing to do with income and locale.
Stability was all in the heart.</div>

<strong>About Kristen Ashley:</strong>
Kristen Ashley was born in Gary, Indiana, USA and nearly killed her mother and herself making it into the world, seeing as she had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck (already attempting to accessorize and she hadn't taken her first breath!). Her mother said they took Kristen away, put her Mom back in her room, her mother looked out the window, and Gary was on fire (Dr. King had been assassinated four days before). Kristen's Mom remembered thinking it was the end of the world. Quite the dramatic beginning.
Nothing's changed.
Kristen grew up in Brownsburg, Indiana and has lived in Denver, Colorado and the West Country of England. Thus, she's blessed to have friends and family around the globe. Her family was (is) loopy (to say the least) but loopy is good when you want to write. They all lived together on a very small farm in a small farm town in the heartland. She grew up with Glenn Miller, The Everly Brothers, REO Speedwagon and Whitesnake (and the wardrobes that matched).
Needless to say, growing up in a house full of music, clothes and love was a good way to grow up.
And as she keeps growing, it keeps getting better.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Freak. Witch. Crazy. Schizo.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Ember Brycin has been called them all. She’s always known she’s different. No one has ever called her normal, even under the best circumstances. Bizarre and inexplicable things continually happen to her, and having two different colored eyes, strange hair, and an unusual tattoo only contributes to the gossip about her.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">When the latest school explosion lands her in a facility for trouble teens, she meets Eli Dragen, who’s hot as hell and darkly mysterious. Their connection is full of passion, danger, and secrets. Secrets that will not only change her life, but what and who she is—leading her down a path she never imagined possible.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Between Light and Dark, Ember finds a world where truth and knowledge are power and no one can be trusted. But her survival depends on finding out the truth about herself. In her pursuit, she is forced between love and destiny and good and evil, even when the differences between them aren’t always clear. At worst, she will incite a war that could destroy both worlds. At best, she will not only lose her heart but her life and everyone she loves. Once the truth is out, however, there will be no going back. And she’ll definitely wish she could.</span>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">It's been four weeks since Ember Brycin witnessed what her powers are capable of. The Electrical Current Storm has turned Seattle, Washington into a natural disaster zone. The death toll is in the thousands with countless others homeless and hungry.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">And Ember is the one who caused it. Something she will have to live with every day.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Those people who were unable to escape either turned quickly into gangs or live in shelters. Ember, on the other hand, can’t do either. With a price on her head and a Dark Dweller on her ass, she is constantly on the move. Both Light and Dark are hunting her for their own purpose to use her as a weapon or a pawn in the war between the Unseelie King of the Dark and the Seelie Queen of the Light.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Em needs help but doesn’t know who to trust: Lars, the mystery man Torin told her to find? Torin, the Seelie Queen’s personal knight, who has sworn to keep Em safe? Or Eli, who wants to turn her over to the Unseelie King, but whom she has an undeniable, intense connection with?</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">No matter what she chooses she will probably lose—her life or everything and everyone she loves.</span>

<strong>Once upon a time, killer recognized killer.</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kella is a hunter. It was the only way to survive on the streets—and it feels good. She’s never met a threat she couldn’t handle. Never stalked prey she couldn’t destroy.</div>

And then she met the big, bad Ron Wolfe.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He rules all the darkest corners of this city. And he doesn’t have any soft spots left for little girls. Any pain in his past became armor long ago.</div>

In a town where everyone is hiding something, the only magic is survival.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fairytales are for children, and happy endings are lies. Some have to learn to make do with glimmers of hope, shining between grace and mercy.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m Noah Weston. For a decade, I’ve quarterbacked America’s most iconic football team and plowed my way through women. Now I’m transitioning from star player to retired jock—with a cloud of allegation hanging over my head. So I’m escaping to the private ocean-front paradise I bought for peace and quiet. What I get instead is stubborn, snarky, wild, lights-my-blood-on-fire Harlow Reed. Since she just left a relationship in a hugely viral way, she should be the last woman I’m seen with.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">On second thought, we can help each other…</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I need a steady, supportive “girlfriend” for the court of public opinion, not entanglements. Harlow is merely looking for nonstop sweaty sex and screaming orgasms that wring pleasure from her oh-so-luscious body. Three months—that’s how long it should take for us both to scratch this itch and leave our respective scandals behind. But the more I know this woman, the less I can picture my life without her. And when I’m forced to choose, I’ll realize I don’t merely want her in my bed or need her for a ruse. I more than love her enough to do whatever it takes to make her mine for good.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">More Than Love You is a sexy and emotional standalone novel in the More Than Words Series.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">About Shayla:</span></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Shayla Black is the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">New York Times</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">USA Today</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> bestselling author of more than sixty novels. For nearly twenty years, she’s written contemporary, erotic, paranormal, and historical romances via traditional, independent, foreign, and audio publishers. Her books have sold millions of copies and been published in a dozen languages.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Raised an only child, Shayla occupied herself with lots of daydreaming, much to the chagrin of her teachers. In college, she found her love for reading and realized that she could have a career publishing the stories spinning in her imagination. Though she graduated with a degree in Marketing/Advertising and embarked on a stint in corporate America to pay the bills, her heart has always been with her characters. She’s thrilled that she’s been living her dream as a full-time author for the past eight years.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Shayla currently lives in North Texas with her wonderfully supportive husband, her daughter, and two spoiled tabbies. In her “free” time, she enjoys reality TV, reading, and listening to an eclectic blend of music.</span>

<b><i>The Winter Games have begun…</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m the life of the party. A little loud and some buzz kills might say obnoxious, but if you’re around me I guarantee you’ll have a good time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Unless your name is Demi Harrison.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If that’s the case, you’d act like I’m the devil incarnate and go out of your way to avoid me. Which makes zero sense because at the last Olympic Games I rocked her world.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Whatever though. I need to concentrate on winning gold anyway. I was at the top of the standings coming into the games, but since arriving in Korea I’ve lost my edge.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I was never one for superstitions, but I can’t deny that there’s only one difference between my previous medal winning games, and these ones—her.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’ve pulled off amazing feats in the past, but getting Demi to agree to sleep with me throughout the games might require divine intervention.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">About Piper Rayne:</span></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Piper Rayne, or Piper and Rayne, whichever you prefer because we’re not one author, we’re two. Yep, you get two USA Today Bestselling authors for the price of one. You might be wondering if you know us? Maybe you’ll read our books and figure it out. Maybe you won’t. Does it really matter?</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We aren’t trying to stamp ourselves with a top-secret label. We wanted to write without apology. We wanted to not be pigeon-holed into a specific type of story. Everyone has their favorite authors, right? And when you pick up their books, you expect something from them. Whether it’s an alpha male, heavy angst, a happily ever after, there’s something you are absolutely certain the book will contain. Heck, we’re readers, too, we get it!</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">All that, AND we thought it'd be a helluva lot more fun if we did this writing thing together!</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">What can we tell you about ourselves? We both have kindle’s full of one-clickable books. We're both married to husbands who drive us to drink. We're both chauffeurs to our kids. Most of all, we love hot heroes, quirky heroines that make us laugh, and lots of sexy times. Here's hoping you do, too!</span>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Synopsis </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m a man without a conscience. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I deal in murder and mayhem.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m the best at what I do. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Frankie Helburn is supposed to be an easy job. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A means to flush her father out of hiding.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Simple. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Except there isn’t anything simple about Frankie or the secrets she’s keeping. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She’s stubborn as hell and the sexiest god damn thing I have ever seen, sending dark, dirty animalistic desire coursing through my veins. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She’s cocaine with legs. A f*cking addiction that makes me question things I’ve never questioned before. Want things I’ve never wanted before. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I might have her, but she isn’t mine to keep. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If her father doesn’t show his face, she will be mine. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">To KILL.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">** Other books in the King Series DO NOT have to be read to enjoy Smoke's book. Up in Smoke can be read as a standalone. ** </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Excerpt: </span></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“All these bruises,” Smoke muses. “And not one of them caused by me.” He trails a hand up my arms and down my flat stomach. “Pity, but I still have time to leave my mark on you yet.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">My entire body stiffens. I’m as rigid as a corpse. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Smoke chuckles and I’m glad I’m facing away because his laugh is pure torture, causing his erection to vibrate against my folds which are aching for more contact. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“You will be punished, hellion. You can be sure of that.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I look over my shoulder and meet his dark eyes which darken even further as his pupils dilate. His lingering gaze rakes me over from my feet to my breasts and back down to the space between my thighs. He licks his full bottom lip. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">My stomach flips. My will to fight him off doesn’t waiver, but my body isn’t getting the message. My core clenches again. I turn back around to face the tile, digging my teeth into my lower lip until I taste my own blood. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">His chest presses against my back, and his hardness pulses between my legs, rubbing against my inner thighs. He squirts some shampoo in his hand, working it into my hair. He tilts my head back and rinses my hair then slides his slick and soapy hand down my body. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m breathing rapidly now. Short quick breaths I can’t control. There’s a deep rumble in his throat. His hand travels lower and lower on my stomach until it’s between my legs. He’s working his thumb over my swollen nub, sending sparks of need, pangs of pleasure, and a wave of self-hatred, surging within my battered body and bruised soul. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“What…what are you doing?” I ask, seeing flashes of white hot lust behind my closed eyes. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“More questions…” his voice a hearty amused rasp. His fingers circle my clit while he continues to rock his hard cock between my legs. The pressure building is so strong it borders on painful. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Tears leak from my eyes. I’m so fucking mad at myself for being turned on. For Smoke being right. I’m so wet. He feels it. There’s no way he </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">can’t</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> feel it. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He leans in close. I’m stone still except for the tremors gripping my body. He licks the tear off my cheek and groans. He dips the tip of his finger inside of me and I tighten around the intrusion. It’s a foreign sensation. Strange. It feels both wrong and right. Pleasurable and painful. “Your tight little pussy is weeping too. I wonder if its tears taste the same.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I look over my shoulder as he withdraws his finger and sucks it into his mouth. He groans. “Fear or desire. They both taste real fuckin’ good to me.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He places his hand back between my legs. When I try to squeeze my thighs together to keep him out he parts them with his knee on a grunt and begins circling my clit again. This time harder. Faster. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m staying as still as I can, but when I feel something begin to happen inside my body. The sparks he ignited within me are all crashing together. I can’t hold back. My face scrunches as I try to fight the orgasm fighting its way out, but it’s no use. I can’t fight it. It’s too fucking strong. I’m so fucking close. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I arch my back without thinking, pressing my ass against him, begging for more. For what I need to push me over the edge. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Smoke hisses. “Oh, what I could do to this beautiful little pussy.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The pleasure builds and builds as he strokes me harder. Faster. I’m about to come all over his fingers when the feeling is lost. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I spin around. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Smoke is gone. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I can’t see through the steam so I shut off the spray and wipe the water from my eyes only to see Smoke toweling off in front of the sink on the other side of the bathroom. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The only proof I have of what just happened between us was real is his cock. Erect. Thick. Huge. The purplish swollen head bobs against his abs, jutting out over the top of the towel he wraps around his waist. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“What…what just happened?” I stammer, leaning back against the wall for support. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Smoke steps forward, and when I go to jerk back, he reaches out and pinches my nipple painfully hard. I yelp and leap back, slipping on the tile, falling on my ass, taking the shower curtain down with me.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Smoke rips the curtain off my head and glares down at me with a triumphant grin on his evil beautiful face. “What just happened was called punishment and you got off easy. Next time I’ll split that tight pussy in two with my fucking cock.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He goes to leave but stops. “You want pain?” he asks. “I’ll give it to you. You want pleasure? Now that’s something you’re gonna have to earn.” </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He leaves, slamming the door behind him. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I release a shaky exhale. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I’d hoped the rest of my time with Smoke would be tolerable, but there’s no fucking way that’s going to happen. Not now. Not with my skin crawling with need. I’m losing my mind. About where I am. About what this is all about. About this beautiful horrible </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">evil</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> man. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I feel like I’ve already been split in two. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">What Smoke is doing to me is far more than punishment. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">It's pure fucking torture.</span>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Andy Simpson never expected to be raising his teenage twin sons alone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Then again, he also never expected to walk into his house and see his wife with another man. In their bed. Or that it wasn’t her first time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Bitterness threatened to wrap around his heart, darkening every part of his life.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">But a brightness he wasn’t even looking for entered their lives and wouldn’t let it take hold.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Christine Jameson knew all about being a single parent. But she was holding a secret. A secret she wasn’t willing to allow anyone to find out. One she’d held tight for years.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">But one look at Andy, and she knew that she needed to be honest with him. That he deserved to know he wasn’t alone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">They both needed friendship. Needed someone who understood, who had compassion without judgement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">What they didn’t imagine was for it to become something more.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">That they would come to share something they never thought they would experience again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">They didn’t expect for it to… Feel Like Home.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">About Jennifer: </span></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">From the Ground Up was Jennifer’s first published novel and now that she was bitten by the writing bug, has no intention of ever stopping. Jennifer makes her home in small town Iowa with her high school sweetheart, three beautiful, hilarious and amazing kids, one crazy Jack Russell terrier. This is where her love for all things reading, baking, and cooking happen. Jennifer’s family enjoys camping, boating, and spending time outside as much as possible. You'll be her best friend if you can make her laugh and follow up with asking her what to read next. When she’s not writing, you can find her cheering the loudest at her kids’ sporting events (read as: embarrassing them), sipping coffee or iced tea out of a mason jar with her Kindle in her lap or binging on Netflix.</span>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Kristin Mayer is a wife and proud mother. Since an early age, she has always enjoyed reading and writing. While visiting her father one weekend, he suggested that she should take up writing again. With family and a career, she didn’t give it a lot of thought, until a story entered her mind and wouldn’t leave.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">At the beginning of 2013, she decided to sit down and write it all down, but she kept it to herself. One sentence developed into two, and before she knew it, she had the makings of a novel.</span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Kristin tries to live life to the fullest during every moment. She loves to travel, meet new people, and mark items off of her bucket list.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Living Out Loud, an all-new emotional standalone from Staci Hart is LIVE!</span></h1>
<img alt="LOL-wrap.jpg" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1372" height="1105" src="https://sarahneedshtml.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/lol-wrap1.jpg" width="1500" />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Bestselling author Staci Hart brings you another installment of the Austen Series, inspired by the works of Jane Austen, with a heartfelt contemporary retelling of Sense and Sensibility.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When Annie Daschle arrives in New York City, the only thing she can control is her list.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Not her father’s death or the loss of her home. Not the hole in her heart or the defective valve that’s dictated so much of her life. But she can put pen to paper to make a list of all the ways she can live out loud, just like her dad would have wanted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">See the city from the top of the Empire State Building: Check.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Eat hot dogs on the steps of The Met: Check.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Get a job at Wasted Words: Check.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">What wasn’t on her list: Greg Brandon. And just when she thinks she’s figured out where to put him, everything changes. In the span of a few staggering heartbeats, she finds herself her caught in the middle of something she can’t find her way out of, with no clear answers and no rules.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">List or no list, she realizes she can’t control anything at all, not even her heart.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Not the decisions it makes, and not the moment it stops.</span></div>

<b>About the Author</b></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she's not writing, she's reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.</span>

About J. Kenner</h3>
J. Kenner (aka Julie Kenner) is the <i>New York Times</i>, <i>USA Today</i>, <i>Publishers Weekly, </i><i>Wall Street Journal</i> and #1 International bestselling author of over seventy novels, novellas and short stories in a variety of genres.
Though known primarily for her award-winning and international bestselling erotic romances (including the Stark and Most Wanted series) that have reached as high as #2 on the <i>New York Times </i>bestseller list, JK has been writing full time for over a decade in a variety of genres including paranormal and contemporary romance, “chicklit” suspense, urban fantasy, and paranormal mommy lit.
JK has been praised by<i> Publishers Weekly</i> as an author with a “flair for dialogue and eccentric characterizations” and by <i>RT Bookclub </i>for having “cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them.” A five time finalist for Romance Writers of America’s prestigious RITA award, JK took home the first RITA trophy awarded in the category of erotic romance in 2014 for her novel, <i>Claim Me </i>(book 2 of her Stark Trilogy). Her Demon Hunting Soccer Mom series (as Julie Kenner) is currently in development with AwesomenessTV/Awestruck.
Her books have sold over three million copies and are published in over twenty languages.
In her previous career as an attorney, JK worked as a clerk on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and practiced primarily civil, entertainment and First Amendment litigation in Los Angeles and Irvine, California, as well as in Austin, Texas. She currently lives in Central Texas, with her husband, two daughters, and two rather spastic cats.<img alt="jkenner" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-112" height="3000" src="https://brookeblogblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/jkenner.jpg" width="2400" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">He knew her round eyes and the deep shade of brown along with the band of black that encircled her irises. He knew the slope of her breasts, the indent of her waist, and the flare of her hips. He knew the way she preferred to wear muted colors to help her blend in with a crowd. It had taken one look to put all that to memory, but he found his eyes going to her again and again, as if he couldn’t get enough.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">About Donna: </span></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Donna</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Grant is the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">New York Times</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and USA Today bestselling author of the sizzling Dark King series featuring dragons, immortal Highlanders, and the Fae.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She was born and raised in Texas but loves to travel. Her adventures have taken her throughout the United States as well as to Jamaica, Mexico, and Scotland. Growing up on the Texas/Louisiana border, Donna’s Cajun side of the family taught her the “spicy” side of life while her Texas roots gave her two-steppin’ and bareback riding.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite deadlines and voracious reading, Donna still manages to keep up with her two children, four cats, and one long haired Chihuahua.</span>

<br />
The world that was once known is gone. In its place is a society where the rich rule, and the female population is auctioned off to the highest bidder.<br />
<br />
<br />
Claire<br />
<br />
Xavier saved me, purchasing me off the auction block and making me feel human again. Although I knew he wanted me, could see it in the way he watched me, he never touched me.<br />
But I wanted him to.<br />
I wanted to feel what it would be like to have his big body over mine, his strong hands running over my bare flesh. I shouldn’t want a man like him: rich, dangerous … one of the elite.<br />
But I did.<br />
Maybe it was time to break free from my shell and give myself something I deserved … him.<br />
<br />
Xavier<br />
<br />
I had money and power, and I used those to my advantage, to purchase women from the auction under the guise that they were for me. But they weren’t. I purchased them to set them free. I’d been doing it for years without romantic attachment to any of them … until Claire came into my life.<br />
And once I saw her, I knew she’d be the one I couldn’t let go. She’d be my downfall, but I was more than ready to fall to my knees and worship the ground she walked on.<br />
<br />
Warning: Set in the same world as Mine To Keep, but a total standalone, this story is a safe read with a happily ever after. It might be short, but it promises to make you blush and reach for a fan. There is no OW/OM drama, just one alpha hero who knows what he wants … the heroine.<br />

<br />
Claire<br />
<br />
I shivered, the thin gown I was wearing barely keeping the chill off my body. I couldn’t see much aside from the bright lights that illuminated the stage. There were several other women behind me, some of them crying, others so emotionless I wondered if they were already broken.<br />
All of us were property.<br />
This was the world I lived in, where being a fertile female made me someone else’s property.<br />
I knew out there, in the crowd hidden behind shadows, were wealthy men of all ages. They’d purchase us, do whatever they wanted with us. We’d be nothing but chattel to them, a shiny new toy for them to use … to abuse. The society I lived in was barbaric, where humans could be taken against their will and sold off to someone who had the right amount of coin.<br />
That thought had fear freezing my body.<br />
How I wished I lived in a time where this was only read about in fiction, where it wasn’t a reality. How I wished I could go to the past, where society wasn’t fucked-up and people weren’t starving.<br />
Would the person who purchased me use me as a sex slave, strictly to get them off? Or maybe they’d use me as a breeder, a vessel to carry their heir and pass on their lineage. Either way, all I wanted to do was run off the stage and escape, but I knew I wouldn’t make it. I knew I would be captured before I even got to the front doors.<br />
I felt my hands shaking, and soon my entire body followed suit. It was a silent auction, one where I wouldn’t know who purchased me until it was far too late.<br />
It was already too late.<br />
And so I closed my eyes, focusing on something else, somewhere else. I thought about the small camp of “runaways” I’d been staying with, men and women who were against how the world was, how the government could sell humans as if they were nothing more than a new toy.<br />
I stood there, my eyes closed, my thoughts on being free, on being alone in the woods where I could pretend that where I was, wasn’t the end of the line for me. I didn’t know how long I stood there, not focused on anything but myself, but I finally felt someone take hold of my arm and cart me offstage.<br />
I was led into the back hallways, pushed into a room where I was changed into a thicker gown, my feet shoved into flats, my hair haphazardly put into a messy bun. I had a bracelet snapped around my wrist, a number etched all around it … my new owner’s purchase number.<br />
And so it is. I am a piece of property.<br />
Once I was dressed and ready for my hell-on-earth future, I was again led toward the back. There I saw two double doors wide open, the breeze washing over me and almost making me cry. I could see the woods just behind, so close yet so far away. I wanted to run, but I didn’t want to make this harder on myself. I didn’t want to make my life even more miserable than I knew it already would be.<br />
It can’t get any worse. Death would be far more humane.<br />
And then, once I was outside, I tugged on the two men leading me. They tightened their holds until the pain lanced up my arms. There, waiting no more than a few feet from me, was a dark car, shiny, reeking of money. The back door was opened by what I could only assume was a servant of the man awaiting me inside. God, would he be old? Would he be gentle or cruel and violent to me?<br />
Nothing was said, no words spoken. I was, after all, nothing more than chattel to them.<br />
Once in the car, my eyes adjusted to the darkness. I could see his big body across from me, the shadows partially hiding his face. My heart was beating so fast, and I felt sweat start to cover my body in fearful beads of emotion.<br />
The vehicle started moving, and I curled my hands into tight fists, afraid to breathe, let alone say anything. And then he leaned forward, the light finally making a swatch across his face. He was brutally handsome, with dark hair and even darker eyes. I saw the tattoos that covered his body, not something that was practiced much anymore, but seeming to make my heart beat harder, painfully fast.<br />
He was older, maybe in his thirties, still much older than my mere twenty years. But he appeared wiser, as if he’d seen more than he should have, experienced more than he’d wanted to.<br />
And then he leaned forward, grabbed my hand in his much bigger one, and I swear I felt fire kick across my skin. The cuff of his jacket rode up slightly, and I saw the tattoos painting his wrist and creeping up his forearm.<br />
I was frozen in place, my muscles tensed, not knowing what he was going to do. He stared into my eyes, his so dark, so deep. Who was this man? Why was he making me feel like I was on edge? Why was he making me feel aroused with just a touch? I should be disgusted by him, frightened because I had no idea what he would do to me.<br />
But he said nothing, his big body making me feel so small, so vulnerable. And then, before I could realize what he was doing, he tore the property bracelet from my wrist. I felt my eyes widen as I realized what he’d just done. That simple act was one of rebellion. I was not his property, and he’d made that clear without saying one word.<br />
Without saying anything, he leaned back, swallowed by the shadows of the interior of the car once more.<br />
My heart thundered so hard and fast, worse than when I’d stood on that auction block not knowing what my future held. The car ride seemed endless. But eventually we were slowing and I glanced out the tinted window to see a massive estate coming into view. Although I wasn’t looking at the man, I could feel his gaze on me, like tendrils of fire moving along my skin. It was as if he was reaching out and stroking my arms with his fingertips. But I refused to look at him. He might have taken off the bracelet, but that didn’t mean I knew what was going to happen or if he would let me go. I could’ve laughed at my thoughts.<br />
Let me go? No doubt he paid an exorbitant amount of money for me.<br />
The vehicle came to a stop, and I sat there, my breathing increasing as I thought about all the horrible things that might happen once I stepped inside that house.<br />
“You’re safe,” the man finally said, his voice so deep, so masculine I felt it race up my spine.<br />
I looked at him then. He leaned forward so the light moved along his face once more.<br />
“No one will ever hurt you again. I’ll make sure you’re protected and healed properly; then after that, you’re free to go.”<br />
I felt my eyes widen. “Free to go?” I whispered. Although I wanted to escape, I also knew I didn’t have anywhere safe to run to. The chances of being caught again played through my head like a horror movie.<br />
“Yes. I can set you up in a safe house once I know you’ll be protected and they can’t find you again.”<br />
I couldn’t believe what was happening right now. “I don’t understand.” I could have cried, and in fact I felt a single tear slip out of the corner of my eye.<br />
“We can talk about this more once you’re inside, a change of clothes covering you, and a warm meal in your belly.”<br />
I felt dizzy, like if I stood right now, I might faint. He helped me out of the vehicle and all I could do was lean on him for support, not sure if I was dreaming or if this was reality. I looked up at him, his body so much bigger than mine. Could this be real? Could I actually be … free?<br />
* * *<br />
Xavier<br />
<br />
She’s mine.<br />
Those words slammed into my head over and over again, a derailed train about to crash and destroy anything and everything in its path. I couldn’t control it, couldn’t stop the deep rumble that came from me. I could see her eyes widen farther, the blues so startling they made my heart slam harder in my chest. The long fall of her blonde hair had my hands twitching, my fingers tingling. I wanted to touch the locks, wanted to see if they felt as soft as they looked.<br />
Get yourself under fucking control.<br />
I exhaled slowly, reining in my control. I wasn’t about to lose my shit. I couldn’t, not in front of her.<br />
My words had shocked her. It was unbelievable to her, I was sure. I had purchased her just to set her free. But as I stared at her, something in me shifted. I didn’t want to set her free, not because I was a sadistic bastard, but because for the first time in my life I finally felt something come alive in me.<br />
It had taken one look, one sound of her voice, and this possessive side in me came forth like a dangerous beast. I was doing everything in my power to be calm, to keep collected and be stoic. No need to frighten her further. She needed to earn my trust, know that I wouldn’t hurt her.<br />
But despite all of that, I could only think about was how I wanted.<br />
She is mine. She will be mine. <br />
And as those words beat in my head like a war drum, a song before a battle, I knew she was different. She was so very different from any woman I’d ever seen, ever known.<br />
Mine.<br />
“What’s your name?” My voice was thick, scratchy. I’d kept in the shadows of the car, watching her, seeing her reaction play across her face. She licked her lips, and I lowered my gaze to watch the act.<br />
“Claire,” she said in the sweetest, softest voice I’d ever heard, a song from the very heavens above.<br />
My body became tense, my blood rushing through my veins. I wanted to protect her, to kill anyone who ever hurt her, who dared to even think about doing so. I wanted blood on my hands, bodies at my feet. It would all be in the name of Claire. I’d always been protective of the women I saved, but this was different. Where I felt an almost parental connection to those woman, a part of me wanting to care for them because they’d had such a rough go at life, with Claire I felt something much more personal. I was protective of her, territorial of her, not only because I wanted to make sure she was safe, but because I wanted her as my own.<br />
I watched her, not saying anything for long seconds. When I finally felt in control and knew I could say anything without sounding like a ravished animal, I spoke. “I’m Xavier…”<br />
And you’re mine.<br />

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
EXCERPT</h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Preoccupied with a text on my phone from my agent, I walk into the kitchen and suck in a breath when I come face to back with Grady. He’s standing with his hand on the refrigerator door, head leaned inside, and his back fully exposed to me. It’s broad and strong and scarred immeasurably.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I stare. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I can’t help it. The marks are a dizzying array of dark and light and ridged and smooth. And they’re undeniably burns. Goosebumps chase over my skin as I imagine the pain he must have endured when he got those. I think of his habit of wearing unbuttoned shirts but never going shirtless and the hint of scars just visible above his collar that I never could have imagined led to this roadmap to hell on his back.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A part of me instinctively wants to reach out to touch them, bring some kind of comfort. It sounds ridiculous, even to me, but that doesn’t abate the urge. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Not pretty, huh? Get a good look while you can.” His voice is gruff as his spine stiffens and body stills, emotion woven through the words. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Thank God not all of you is pretty. I was beginning to feel majorly insecure having to live with perfection like you,” I say off the cuff, trying to make this situation less awkward. My attempt to settle the sudden tension sparking in the air around us.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Perfection?” he asks as he turns to face me with a smile that masks the emotion swirling in his eyes.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Yeah. You have scars. I have mermaid thighs.”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Mermaid thighs?” He laughs. “What in the world are you talking about?”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Thighs that touch from the top all the way to my knees.” I shrug as if it doesn’t bug me, as if I’m not highlighting one of the insults Tara threw at me. It’s a whole lot easier to make fun of myself so long as it puts him at ease.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Do you ever give yourself a break?”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Do you</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">?” I ask the question, sparking a silent battle of wills as we stare at each other and wonder what to say next about the other’s insecurities. Coming up empty, I shift gears. “I think there is some type of rule about how many abs are fair for a guy to have when the rest of us are just struggling to find one of them.”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">His smile rings more genuine as he steps toward me, and I step back, my hips leaning against the counter now. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Is that so?” His voice lowers as his eyes flick to my lips and then back up. “I’m sure you have some under your shirt there.”</span>
<i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why does the simple action make it seem so hard to swallow?</span></i>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">He takes another step.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“What are you building outside?”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“A playroom.”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A nervous chuckle falls from my lips as I think of all of the versions of playrooms I’ve read about in my romance books. My cheeks stain red as I imagine Grady with a flogger in one hand standing beside a St. Andrew’s Cross. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“A playroom?”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Yeah.” He takes a step closer so we’re breathing the same air, his voice husky enough to cause every part of my body to grow alert. “A playroom. You know . . . a pool table. Foosball. A real man cave.”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">I exhale a shaky sigh, suddenly more than aware that he’s so close, shirtless, sweaty, and smelling like sun and soap mixed together. But it’s his eyes that make my thoughts falter. There’s an intensity to them I don’t expect from the perpetually cheerful Grady Malone. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Ah, that kind of playroom . . .” But my words trail off as he steps even closer and braces his hands on the counter on either side of me. I can hear his intake of breath. The music floating in from outside. The pound of my pulse in my ears. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Hey, Dyl?”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“Yes?” Our eyes hold, my lips fall lax.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“I need you to open up.”</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">What</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">?” I question as his hand brushes against my hip and his fingers pull on the drawer handle I’m standing in front of. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“I need the bottle opener. You’re standing in front of the drawer it’s in.” His lips spread into a full-fledged grin as I scramble away from the counter and, of course, run smack dab into the hardness, all six foot plus of him.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">And then I rebound off him again in a flustered state that has him laughing and me stuttering. “Sorry. I wasn’t—I didn’t . . .” His arms hold on to my biceps to steady me, which prompts me to look up and meet his eyes. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“We need to stop meeting like this,” he murmurs, the heat of his breath hitting my lips.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">“We do.” </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Brilliant, Dylan. Freaking brilliant response.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “I’ve gotta . . . I’ve gotta get back to . . . to writing.”</span>

About K. Bromberg</h2>
<i><span style="font-weight: 400;">New York Times </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bestselling author K. Bromberg writes contemporary novels that contain a mixture of sweet, emotional, a whole lot of sexy, and a little bit of real. She likes to write strong heroines, and damaged heroes who we love to hate and hate to love.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">A mom of three, she plots her novels in between school runs and soccer practices, more often than not with her laptop in tow.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Since publishing her first book in 2013, Kristy has sold over one million copies of her books across sixteen different countries and has landed on the New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists over twenty-five times. Her Driven trilogy (Driven, Fueled, and Crashed) is currently being adapted for film by Passionflix with the first movie slated to release in the summer of 2018.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She is currently working on her Everyday Heroes trilogy. This series consists of three complete standalone novels—Cuffed, Combust, and Cockpit (late spring 2018)—and is about three brothers who are emergency responders, the jobs that call to them, and the women who challenge them. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She loves to hear from her readers so make sure you check her out on social media or sign up for her newsletter to stay up to date on all her latest releases and sales: </span><a href="http://bit.ly/254MWtI"><span style="font-weight: 400;">http://bit.ly/254MWtI</span></a>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">It may be Winter Games, but the bedroom games are about to begin…</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Competing in South Korea on the world stage is hard enough.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Having to spend the entire press tour beforehand with a woman who hates me? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Karma really is a bitch.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">While she’s spent the last four years loathing me, I’ve spent them ignoring the guilt that gnaws at my stomach. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">All Mia Salter cares about is that I’m her brother’s ex-best friend and it’s her duty to hate me. The funny thing is, I barely noticed her back when she was trying to keep up with us on the slopes. Now, as both of us prepare to go for gold, I’m seeing her in a whole different light—and it involves a whole lotta different positions. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">No one said the path to the Olympics would be easy.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">About Piper Rayne:</span></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Piper Rayne, or Piper and Rayne, whichever you prefer because we’re not one author, we’re two. Yep, you get two USA Today Bestselling authors for the price of one. You might be wondering if you know us? Maybe you’ll read our books and figure it out. Maybe you won’t. Does it really matter?</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We aren’t trying to stamp ourselves with a top-secret label. We wanted to write without apology. We wanted to not be pigeon-holed into a specific type of story. Everyone has their favorite authors, right? And when you pick up their books, you expect something from them. Whether it’s an alpha male, heavy angst, a happily ever after, there’s something you are absolutely certain the book will contain. Heck, we’re readers, too, we get it!</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">All that, AND we thought it'd be a helluva lot more fun if we did this writing thing together!</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">What can we tell you about ourselves? We both have kindle’s full of one-clickable books. We're both married to husbands who drive us to drink. We're both chauffeurs to our kids. Most of all, we love hot heroes, quirky heroines that make us laugh, and lots of sexy times. Here's hoping you do, too!</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Synopsis </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Flint Hopkins finds the perfect tenant to rent the space above his Minneapolis-based law office.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">All the T’s are crossed and I’s dotted on Ellen’s application. Her references are good. And she’s easy on the eyes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Until …</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Flint discovers Ellen Rodgers, Board-Certified Music Therapist, plays music. Bongos, guitars, singing—not Beethoven administered through noise-cancelling headphones.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The cut-throat attorney serves up an eviction notice to the bubbly, constantly-humming redhead who's too sexy for her own good. But luck is on Ellen’s side when Flint’s autistic son, Harrison, takes an instant liking to her. A single dad can’t compete with guitars—and rats. Yes, she has pet rats.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">This woman …</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She’s annoyingly happy with a constant need to touch him—adjust his tie, button his shirt, invade his space, and mess with his mind.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Still …</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">She must go.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Their lust-hate relationship escalates into something beautiful and tragic. This sexy, romantic-comedy explores the things we want, the things we need, and the impossible decisions parents and children make to survive.</span></div>

<b>About Jewel:</b></div>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Jewel is a free-spirited romance junkie with a quirky sense of humor.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">With 10 years of flossing lectures under her belt, she took early retirement from her dental hygiene career to stay home with her three awesome boys and manage the family business. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">After her best friend of nearly 30 years suggested a few books from the Contemporary Romance genre, Jewel was hooked. Devouring two and three books a week but still craving more, she decided to practice sustainable reading, AKA writing. </span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">When she’s not donning her cape and saving the planet one tree at a time, she enjoys yoga with friends, good food with family, rock climbing with her kids, watching How I Met Your Mother reruns, and of course…heart-wrenching, tear-jerking, panty-scorching novels.</span>

<strong><span style="color: black;">About Marni:</span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Best-selling Author Marni Mann knew she was going to be a writer since middle school. While other girls her age were daydreaming about teenage pop stars, Mann was fantasizing about penning her first novel. She crafts sexy, titillating stories that weave together her love of darkness, mystery, passion, and human emotion. A New Englander at heart, she now lives in Sarasota, Florida with her husband and their two dogs who subsequently have been characters in her books. When she’s not nose deep in her laptop working on her next novel, she’s scouring for chocolate, sipping wine, traveling to new locations, and devouring fabulous books.</span></div>

<b>A short Valentine’s Day story by USA Today Bestselling Authors Ella Frank & Brooke Blaine—coming to Passionflix in 2019!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Christmas has always been Carter Pierce’s favorite holiday. But with his partner, Dr. Vaughn Bennett, working crazy hours in the ER, it’s difficult to make any kind of plans.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Easter was an appendectomy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Thanksgiving, a ruptured spleen.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">And Christmas had called Vaughn away to work for Doctors Without Borders.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">So when the calendar hits February 14th, Carter expects it will be just another day when he kisses his man goodbye so he can go and save the world.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Little does he know that Vaughn has a huge surprise up his sleeve—one that will change their lives forever.</span></div>

<b>A powerful contemporary romance set in the fast-moving world of international rugby.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
When your world crashes down<br />
When they all say you’re out<br />
When your body is broken<br />
I will rise.<br />
I will return.<br />
And I will be undefeated.<br />
<br />
Nick Renshaw is the golden boy of British rugby. When a serious injury threatens his career, he starts to spiral downwards, a broken man.<br />
Feeling abandoned and betrayed by those closest to him, he fights to restart his life. Maybe there’s someone out there who can help him. Maybe he can find his way back toward the light. Maybe … not.<br />
Dr. Anna Scott might be the one person who can help Nick, but she has her own secrets. And when Nick’s past comes back to haunt them both, the enigmatic doctor is more vulnerable than she seems.<br />
Broken and betrayed, the struggle to survive seems intolerable. Who will give in, and who will rise, undefeated?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The first time we met was at a party.
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Your ex arrived to show off the person he'd left you for last month, and you asked me to pretend to be your date.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
I was more than happy to help. You were attractive, smart and witty--and that kiss we shared? It left me wanting you for days.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
The second time we met was in my office on campus where we were both surprised to discover you were the new master’s degree student in poetry that I would be working with. You promised to be professional. I did no such thing.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
The late nights and intense study sessions spent alongside you majorly throw me off my game. I want you, and I fight with myself daily over this fact.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
I know I'm crass, that my sexual innuendos and dirty mouth annoy you, but I live for those two bright spots of color in your cheeks. If that's the only reaction I can get out of you, I'll gladly take it.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
You hate Mondays so every Monday I slip an anonymous poem into your bag and your smile gets me through the week.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
I think I'm falling for you, and I know it's wrong. I know that I'm only supposed to be your adviser and nothing more, but here's the thing. I think you're falling for me too.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
xo, Zach</h3>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">"What am I promising?" This man had a way of getting me to say things, to feel things, to admit things that I might not have otherwise. I wasn't sure if it was because he was older and wiser and that much more cunning at these types of discussions, or if it was just because being near him seemed to physically lower my inhibitions. He was like a walking shot of tequila. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">"I need you to promise me that if anything physical happens between us—that it will be very consensual, and very sex-positive. I need you to understand that I will worship you and make you come So. Many. Fucking Times."</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">He annunciated those words so clearly and slowly, I felt them with every beat of my heart, every pulse of heat between my legs.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Oblivious to my hammering heart, Zach continued. "But I also need you to know that if I do or say anything you don't like, all you have to do is say so and everything will stop. Just the word no, Poppy. Use it and I promise to leave you alone."</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">His face was serious and he shook his head without even considering it. "I will never stop mentoring you, as long as you want it. Giving in to our attraction—or not—will never be a condition for my help. I want you to succeed, and it has nothing to do with how much I want you in my bed. Do you understand that?"</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I felt myself nodding my head. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I knew what he was saying. Despite how aggressively Zach put his feelings on the subject of us out there—I knew he'd never betray my wishes. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">"Okay," I murmured.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">He considered me for a long moment, neither of us blinking. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">"Why did you approach me that night at the party, Poppy. Did you find me attractive?"</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Was he fucking serious?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Of course I find him attractive. Actually, attractive was too weak a word. I found him mesmerizing. Addictive. Enchanting. Impossible. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">"I'm not saying I do, but if I wanted something to happen ..." I swallowed a wave of nerves and took a shallow breath as Zach's mouth curved into a grin.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I held up one hand. "Yes. That. How would it work, isn't it, like, forbidden?"</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 5pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">God, why did the word forbidden make me feel even hotter? </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Lark O'Bannion learned early that life isn't really like a fairy tale. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Parents don't always love their children unconditionally. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Damsels are usually left to deal with their distress alone and Prince Charming rarely, if ever, comes riding to the rescue. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Happily-ever-afters are a lovely concept, but in reality are few and far between. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">When Sebastian Ross rolls into her life on his Harley, with his dark beauty and inked skin, Lark is willing to admit that maybe she doesn't know as much as she thinks she does. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Sebastian wants nothing more than to get out from under the control of his parents and their desire to force him into a mold. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Changing schools in his senior year isn't an act of rebellion, but his attempt to take control of his life by following his own path. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">One look into Lark's emerald-green eyes and control is taken out of Bastian's hands. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">He will discover that the only path he wants to follow is the one that leads to her. </span>
<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-weight: 400;">L.A. Fiore is the author of several books including Beautifully Damaged, Collecting the Pieces and Savage. Her favorite movie is Star Wars, a love her son shares. They hope to build their own Millennium Falcon one day. She would like to meet the Winchester Boys to thank them for enlightening her on the versatility of salt as not just a food enhancer, but as protection from supernatural threats. And she thinks it would be interesting to be a zombie, to get an idea of what life is like as a brain-addicted fiend so she can be their voice to tell their side of the story. She lives in Pennsylvania with her husband and kids, their two spoiled cats and their awesome dog.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">After eighteen months in the Mediterranean, newlyweds Polly and Leo Xanthus can barely keep their hands to themselves. The Greek isles have warmed their skin and hearts, but each longs for a life where they never have to hide from the mafia that forced them into seclusion.</span>
<span style="color: black;">The Marcello crime family is on the brink of going under. With their revenue streams drying up and the feds ever-present on their tail, aging crime boss Alfonso Balivino looks to steal a diamond owned by his one-time boss, Kostas Xanthus to fund the family. </span>
<span style="color: black;">Now, Polly and Leo will be forced to leave their unknown location and find their way home to New Orleans before the Marcello family murders again, forcing them and the ring on Polly’s hand out of hiding.</span>
<span style="color: black;">But the diamond is more than a stone. It’s a puzzle. A password to something monumental. And when Polly and Leo discover it’s the key to riches far greater than anyone could imagine, the race is on—not only to stay alive but to stop a heroin empire.</span></div>
