Giveaway & Cover Reveal - Corrupt by Penelope Douglas

I seriously cant wait to read Corrupt by Penelope Douglas.   This Spring 2015 release sounds like its going to be one fine piece of dark and steamy Kindle Crack.  Three $10.00 Amazon or B&N gift cards are up for grabs. 


Title: Corrupt
Author: Penelope Douglas
Genre: Dark, Erotica, Contemporary Romance
Expected Release Date: Spring 2015
Cover Designed by: Kari from Cover to Cover Designs 

Synopsis:
I was told that dreams were our heart’s desires. My nightmares, however, became my obsession. 

His name is Michael Crist. 

My boyfriend’s older brother is like that scary movie that you peek through your hand to watch. He is handsome, strong, and completely terrifying. The star of his college’s basketball team and now gone pro, he’s more concerned with the dirt on his shoe than me. 

But I noticed him. I saw him. I heard him. The things that he did, and the deeds that he hid…For years, I bit my nails, unable to look away. 

Now, I’ve graduated high school and moved on to college, but I haven’t stopped watching Michael. He’s bad, and the dirt I’ve seen isn’t content to stay in my head anymore. 
Because he’s finally noticed me. 

Her name is Erika Fane, but everyone calls her Rika.
My brother’s girlfriend grew up hanging around my house and is always at our dinner table. She looks down when I enter a room and stills when I am close. I can always feel the fear rolling off of her, and while I haven’t had her body, I know that I have her mind. That’s all I really want anyway. 
Until my brother leaves for the military, and I find Rika alone at college. 

In my city. 

Unprotected. 

The opportunity is too good to be true as well as the timing. Because you see, three years ago she put a few of my high school friends in prison, and now they’re out. We’ve waited. We’ve been patient. And now every last one of her nightmares will come true. 

***Corrupt is stand-alone dark erotica set to be released Spring 2015.

SECOND CHANCE HERO
Author: REBECCA SHERWIN
Cover Design: RfR design
Re-Release: May 12, 2014


'He owns me. Completely, irrevocably. He always has. My heart, body and soul belong to this man and I wouldn't have it any other way. I just hope I'm not too late...'
Two best friends. One Christmas. Unpredictable events that tear a perfect friendship apart.

Jenna Rivera changed after the night on the beach where her heart was broken and she lost everything she thought she had. Gone is the girl who was raised by the sea, replaced by the city girl she swore she'd never be.

Deacon Reid, owner of D R & Son Property Development and the town playboy spends his days avoiding everything his life was before the death of his father five years ago. After losing his dad and his best friend in the same night, Deacon went in search of the trait girls...
Five and a half years, countless one night stands and a stockbroker boyfriend later, Jenna and Deacon reunite. The past and present collide as they mask the all consuming love they feel for each other with a dangerous cocktail of anger, jealousy and lust.
Deacon makes it his mission to win Jenna back, to save her from the years of pain he caused. He swears to be her hero, grasping with both hands at their second chance at the kind of love many dream of .

In life nothing is certain, and every day must be treated as if it's your last. Can they save their love, and each other, before it's too late?


Author Bio: Rebecca is a coffee drinking, music loving, working single mother and writing insomniac. When she’s not writing, she’s reading and when she’s not reading she’s squeezing her eyes shut and willing sleep to descend. She writes about serious issues, giving emotional turmoil a twist and adding a little humour and sarcasm. Her stories are real and relatable, yet unexpected and unpredictable. Every writer was a reader first and Rebecca owes her passion for creating and telling emotional tales to the stories she has read and the people, places and experiences that have, and continue to, inspire her. Rebecca wants her readers to escape to a world where fairy tales and true love exist, wrapping her stories up with angst, passion and curveballs you won't see coming.

Summary

The New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Bastard, Beautiful Stranger, and Beautiful Player starts a brand new story of friends, love, and lust with Book One of the Wild Seasons series.

When feelings begin to develop behind the provocative roles they take on, and their temporary masquerade adventures begin to feel real, Mia will have to decide if she belongs in the life she left because it was all wrong, or in the strange new one that seems worlds away

I found a new author to love! Review of On My Knees by Meredith Wild


On My Knees is one heck of a second chance roller coaster ride romance!  It's official...I am a fan of Meredith Wild!  Check out my review & author giveaway. 
Synopsis:
Haunted by the responsibility of caring for her troubled family, Maya Jacobs gave the only
answer she could when Cameron asked her to marry him. Years later, entrenched in a
soulless professional routine, she distracts herself from the lingering regret of her decision
with a “work hard, play hard” lifestyle that guarantees no man will ever find his way into
her heart again.

Cameron Bridge has spent the past five years married to the military, trying to escape the
painful memory of losing Maya. After fighting his own war in the desert, he starts a new life
in New York City, with his siblings, Olivia and Darren, by his side.
When fate brings Maya back to him in the heart of a city filled with its own hopes and shadows, can Cameron find the girl he once loved in the woman she’s become?

Author Bio:

Review of On My Knees by Meredith Wild on Kindle Crack Book Reviews
On My Knees (Bridge, #1)On My Knees by Meredith Wild
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Kindle Crack Book Reviews rating 4.5 – 5.00 stars.
No cliffhanger
Stand alone: book one in a series.
Steam factor: amazing character chemistry.

ARC kindly provided by in exchange for a fair and honest review. Spoiler-free review. 4.5 – 5.00. On My Knees by Meredith Wild is an emotion packed story about love, heartbreak and second chances. I am physically and mentally fried after reading On My Knees.  This book was “unputabledownable.”

I am not going to regurgitate the synopsis, but I will top-line it in order to remain spoiler free.  Maya is in her last year of college and head over heels in love with her boyfriend Cam.  While on leave from the military, Cam visits Maya and proposes to her. Maya declines his proposal.

“As head over heels as I was, as we both were, I couldn’t go through with it.  One day, yes.  But I couldn’t say when that would be.  He wanted to take care of me, but he’d never really understand the weight I carried.”

Cam is devastated and servers all contact with her.  Maya is crushed from their breakup.  She did not want to lose him, but she just wasn’t ready to tie the knot and expose her less than perfect family life.

Five years later Maya is on a career fast track and has turned into party girl train wreck.  She is extremely unhappy and numbs herself with booze. Maya was never the same after Cam left her.  While she is pretty successful…she is also broken and bitter after losing Cam. Cam was a huge mess after he and Maya broke up. He threw himself into his military career by volunteering for dangerous tours of duty. He is a successful gym owner and still head over heels in love with Maya.  After running into Maya on the street by her office, Cam manages to wiggle back into her life. He wants to get back together with her. Maya is still devastated from their breakup and pushes Cam away…again and again…and again and again. What will it take for love to find its way?

Let me start off by saying Maya frustrated the life out of me at times.   I think I was on my knees begging her to get her act together and give Cam a second chance. Yeah...she gave me emotional whiplash.   Overall, I didn’t let my frustration with Maya get in the way of loving this book.  The plot and the characters got under my skin in a big way. Cam & Maya’s story flowed beautifully from alternating points of view. I was captivated from the first to the last page.  I couldn’t put this book down and read it in one sitting. One click this rollercoaster now.  I think I found a new writer to love and will auto-download the next book in this series.
