Blurb
I can see how a person is going to die.
I don't know when and I don't always know who but it's a curse I've had since childhood.
There are people who call what I see a gift but I disagree. After years of trying to ignore the visions that haunt me I'm being told I have to embrace this "gift".
If I refuse the punishment will be catastrophic.
Embracing the nightmares within my own mind is the only way I can save myself... and HIM.
The only man I've ever let close.
The only man I've ever loved.
Can I let go of the fear I've carried around my whole life in order to save him?
I just don't know.

About The Author

I'm a wife, mother, wino, coffee addict and avid a lover of all types of books, but romances are my main favs. My husband likes to say reading is my obsession but I just say it's my passion... there's a difference.

I've been writing since I was a little kid and I finally decided to take the leap and actually publish when Picking up the Pieces came to me. Now that I've been bitten by the writing bug I just can't seem to stop.

Synopsis:
Makenna Lewis cringes at any mention of the word commitment. She doesn’t want or need a relationship, but she does like sex (who doesn't).

That explains Noah, Sean, and Zander, her three 'friends with benefits'.
They know the score, they know they're not the only one, and each of them provide her with a different physical need that she craves and enjoys.

Until a late night encounter with the delicious Daniel Winters turns her preconceived notion of no-commitment completely on its head.
Soon she finds herself feeling things she vowed never to feel again, and when Daniel pushes for more than she’s willing to give, she falters.
What do you do when something that you’ve known to be so wrong in the past feels so damn right?
If you’re Mac, you run and hide.
But is Daniel the type of man who takes no for an answer?

Title: The Darkest Joy

Author: Marata Eros

Expected release: February 18, 2014

Genre: Dark Romantic Suspense

Age Group: New Adult



A sexy and poignant new adult novel from New York Times bestseller Marata Eros, about two lost souls who find each other in the wake of tragedy, only to learn that love may not be enough to heal the wounds of a dark and tortured past...

Twenty year-old Brooke Starr has escaped the aftermath of a brutal tragedy by abandoning her music studies and moving north to take a summer position as a part-time deck hand on a deep-sea fishing boat. When her survivor’s guilt becomes unbearable, Brooke realizes there's only one thing she can do to finally erase the pain.

Deep sea fisherman, Chance Taylor, has just wrapped his guitar set at the local saloon when he sees the silhouette of a young woman in repose, the full moon highlighting her shadow as she plummets from a pier too high for diving... into water too cold to survive. Without thinking, he plunges in after her, saving Brooke from drowning.

As Chance works to save her from her own emotional fragility, Brooke finally begins to learn how to save herself. But when their chemistry begins to consume them, Brooke withdraws. She’s determined to be the master of her own destiny... until the past catches up with her in a cataclysmic plan so dark, so final... it threatens their love and their very lives.

Review of Connected


Connected by Kim Karr

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Not even the parade of freaks wearing nut huggers on the beach was going to distract me from finishing Kim Karrs book Connected (Connections). Yesterday, I acquired a suck ass sunburn because I was so into this book ( I'm on vacation in the Dominican Republic). This morning I loaded up with SPF 80 or whatever the bottle promised, found a palm tree that I could read under for a while and paid off my drink server to give me top shelf Patron instead of the shit that I can use to take my nail polish off with. Nothing was going to distract me.

There are books with heavy cliff hangers that have inflicted some I NEED TO READ the next book NOW angst for me like S.C Stephens Effortless, Georgia Cates Beauty From Pain, Gail McHugh's Collide, Rebecca Donovan's Breathing series... you get the picture... now Connections has made my list. Oh my freaking God! This book is high grade Kindle crack! I refuse to spoil this book for others... but what story of mind fuckery, love, loss, heartbreak, lust, grief, throw in some fine smut and a murder mystery ( you might think you have it figured out... you don't). I should be effing pissed at this cliffEFFINGhanger...but this book rocked so much that I can't be mad. Gibert, my beach bitch drink pimp better supersize my next cocktail for the book hangover I am already starting to feel. Did I mention the FANtactic references about DBags and The Mighty Storm? Don't miss this book...Connections has made my favorite shelf.

A Brutal Tenderness by Marata Eros
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an arc in exchange for a fair and honest review. Expected publication date:  August 26th.

For two years he has stalked her…
For two years he has blamed her…
                              For two years he has hated her…
Jewell MacLeod’s life was in some serious danger.  She changed her name, appearance and runs away after her best friend Hope is brutally murdered. Jewell spins a web of lies in order to conceal her identity from the psycho killer who wants to get her next. It turns out she is not the only one who is telling lies. Everyone around her has an agenda and Jewell has no idea.

Warning:  Read A Terrible Love (book #1) first. A Brutal Tenderness (A Terrible Love #2) is a companion novel told in Agent “Cas” Steel’s POV.  Hot as hell alpha FBI agent Cas is hell bent on avenging the death of his cousin Hope.  Cas blames her death on her so called best friend Jewell.  After getting to know Jewell he is torn.  She isn’t the spoiled selfish bitch who did nothing as she watched his cousin murdered.    Cas never expected to fall hard and fast for his “live bait”…while on the job to catch a serial killer.

Marata Eros spins a wicked tail of romance and suspense. This tension filled novel takes some great twists and turns through Cas’s eyes… as well as Hope’s killers. I have to say…I was glad I re-read book one first or I might not have truly appreciated Cas’s POV as much as I did.  I found ABT to be a little regurgitated from book one (some of the dialogue and retelling of a story) -- but that was ok with me since I LOVED book one. Cas’s POV was great. I loved getting to dig deep into the steamy recesses of his alpha male/bad boy brain. The writer did a great job unraveling the back story. If you loved A Terrible Love and Cas…then you will love getting more Cas in A Brutal Tenderness. 3.75 – 4 Cas-stars.

Vanessa Fewlings Enthrall Book Tour

This is the world of the forbidden. This is the embrace of Enthrall.

Mia Lauren is a single, twenty-one-year old working in a West Hollywood art store who dreams of one day becoming a fashion designer. When an unexpected offer arises to work at Enthrall, L.A.'s premier fetish club for the wealthy, Mia accepts. It's a salary beyond her wildest imagination.

Mia becomes the secretary to the club's assistant director, blond and broody Richard Booth. Richard is not only one of L.A.'s most beautiful and wealthiest men, he is also the club's senior dominant. Mia is both drawn and terrified when he reveals flashes of his white-hot passion, threatening an unbound pleasure like no other. She knows her attraction may be her undoing, but the spellbinding feelings render her powerless to resist his advances.

What Mia cannot know is that Enthrall's dashing director thirty-year-old Cameron Cole, who is also the club's psychiatrist, has lured Mia to save his best friend and patient Richard from his obsession with thrill seeking. Cameron masterfully sets up sexy scenarios to ensure the collision of Richard and Mia, hoping that love will save him.

However, despite Cameron's noble intentions, he also finds himself enticed by Mia's haunting innocence. Passion and pleasure stir, forming a dangerous love triangle. This is the world of the forbidden. This is the embrace of Enthrall.
