Cover Reveal - Surrender To Me by Ashley Piscitelli




Rebecca Chase has never been interested in dating, and definitely not in relationships. She only had two goals in life, to get her college degree and to get the hell away from her house. When she meets Lucas everything that she thought she had wanted was now turned upside down.

Lucas Masterson has it all money, fame, and his dream job of being in the music industry. He knows that most people are just out for themselves and will use him as much as they can. When he meets Becca he realizes that he never really knew what he wanted. He thinks that she is the most amazing person he has ever met, but can he balance her and his crazy life?

Can two people who come from completely different worlds make it work or will the people trying to tear them apart succeed?


Get ready to get lost in this crazy romantic adventure and surrender yourself to Lucas and Becca.

Author Bio and Links
My name is Ashley Piscitelli. I live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with my husband, two kids, and two dogs. On top of starting a writing career, I am a full-time student and a full-time mom. I love spending time with my kids, although I have to hide away with the computer from them when I am writing! I love being active and being outdoors.
I have always been passionate about writing. I wrote this book in about three months. I love reading romance books! I feel like being able to lose yourself in a book is one of the more exciting aspects. The books I love to read and write will be ones that make you feel for the characters. You should have an opinion on every character in a book whether you love them, hate them, or think they are up to something.
I have always thought that the most important critic is your reader, so I would love to hear from you. If you read the book and loved it or hated it, tell me. As long as it is in a constructive way, I will always answer and interact with you. I want my fans to be open & talk to me what they want for the characters in the story, and what they would  like to see happen.
I hope you all enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Blog Tour Review, Excerpt and Promo Giveaway - Wild Chase by L.A. Bressett

This is one hell of a rock and roll fairy tale that had me hooked from page one. I love a good second chance romance and L.A. Bressett’s debut novel definitely rocked. Check out Kindle Crack Book reviews take on this book, excerpt and author giveaway. 




 Title:  Wild Chase, Book #1 in the Vengeful Honor Series
Author:  L.A. Bressett
Release Date:  September 14, 2013
Genre:  Contemporary Romance

 Synopsis:
"Music is a Moral Law, It Gives Soul to the Universe"- Plato

 Sometimes it doesn't matter how long you know a person. The effect they can have on you can happen after four seconds or four years.

 In Chase Taylor's case - it's both.

 Avery McGuire doesn't just flip on a light inside of her - he sets a blaze to everything holding her back. After only a week together, he has to leave, but he strikes a match before walking away that won't easily burn out.

 Four years later, Chase finds herself face to face with the boy -now rock star - who changed everything. The same one she still can't admit to falling head over heels in love with. She has no idea that her world is about to get rocked, in more ways than one.

 Wild Chase (Vengeful Honor, #1)Wild Chase by L.A. Bressett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
ARC kindly provided in exchange for a fair and honest review.  No cliff hanger. Spoiler-free review. 4 stars.

One night changes everything.

Chase goes out one night and meets a hot guy in a band, loses the "big V" and decides to move out of her parent’s prison-like home. Fast forward four years later Chase is living her life on her terms…but can’t forget Avery or the night they shared. She still stuck on the man that made her want more from life.  There is still a huge hole in her heart from never seeing Avery again...that is in person. His face is on every magazine cover and it looks like it has moved on and forgot about her. A twist of fate brings them together - but will he remember that passionate night and the things they promised each other?

This is one hell of a rock and roll fairy tale that had me hooked from page one. I love a good second chance romance and L.A. Bressett’s debut novel... was a fun read. I'm looking forward to reading book two...where I hope Chase’s pseudo ex gets his HEA (I felt bad for him getting screwed over).  When is book two out?!

Four Rock Stars! Great debut book.

Review to follow closer to blog tour. 

Excerpt:
A few minutes later, my best friend had me laughing and spinning around with her, my jitters leaving me with every swing of the hips. I closed my eyes and turned to bump against her again; however, the deep "oomph" that followed was most definitely not Victoria's.
My horrified eyes flew open and found themselves eye level with a red guitar pick attached to a sliver chain. The chain almost distracted me from the black shirt stretched tightly across a broad chest lying beneath it. Almost. My gaze wandered up almost a foot above my five and a half foot frame, and landed on the most gorgeous face I had ever seen. Like a domino effect, my eyes fell from one impressive feature to another. Charcoal gray eyes stared down into my light blue ones, smiling just as much as the full lips on his face. The silver lip ring on his bottom lip was absolutely hotter than the sun. In the dim bar lighting, I noticed script writing tattooed across his forearm, and even one peeking out above the collar of his shirt. He pushed his stylishly messed up, shaggy blonde hair out of his face, and I watched as his eyes slowly roamed up and down my body.
Holy crap.

Cover Reveal: Last Shadow by Pepper Winters

Pepper Winters knows how to write dark and twisted stories. I have a feeling Last Shadow will be pretty raw and intense.  I was crazy glued to Pepper's first book --Tears of Tess. Check out synopsis for Last Shadow.  It might not be for everyone..so proceed with caution.

Title: Last Shadow
Author: Pepper Winters
Genre: Dark Romance
Tentative Release Date: April 2014
Add to Goodreads:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18403217-last-shadow
Hosted by: Love Between the Sheets

 Synopsis
A New Adult Dark Contemporary Romance, not suitable for people sensitive to slavery, cruelty, and non-consensual sex. A story about a killer with no remorse, a woman living in nightmares, and a future that binds them in servitude. 
***
I’m named after the blackest of shadows. Conjured from earth, created by demons, molded by fire to become the perfect killer. I need no-one. I feel nothing. I am nobody… until her. 
***

My name is of no consequence, they sometimes call me whore, slut, or possession. I dance by night and waste away by day. Every foul moment of this life is replaced with my hopes and dreams, inked onto my skin for the world to see.  I have a promise to keep. I will be free—it’s only a matter of time…until him.
Pepper Winters wears many roles. Some of them include writer, reader, sometimes wife. She loves dark, taboo stories that twist with your head. The more tortured the hero, the better, and she constantly thinks up ways to break and fix her characters. Oh, and sex… her books have sex. She loves to travel and has an amazing, fabulous hubby who puts up with her love affair with her book boyfriends. 
Her debut book Tears of Tess will be followed with Quintessentially Q. You didn’t think Q could stop so soon, did you? Her other two titles, Last Shadow and Broken Chance will be coming soon.

EXCLUSIVE Blog Tour Giveaway & Top Five List - The Edge of Always by J.A. Redmerski


Did you read The Edge of Never (book #1) by J.A. Redmerski? If you didn't read it yet... you can try and win a copy below or just one click a copy now on Amazon. Trust me on this. The Edge of Always (Book #2) just hit eBook shelves this week.   Both books earned five plus stars from Kindle Crack Book Reviews.  JRed is one of my all time favorite writers.  Reviews of both books, an exclusive top five list for Kindle Crack Book Reviews from Andrew and book giveaway of the series below.  
  
Do you want to know the top five things Andrew loves about Camryn? How could you not. Andrew Parrish is on my top five ultimate book boyfriend list. I'm not a "swooner" - but I actually swoon over this man!
Top 5 thing's Andrew loves about Camryn
•  Andrew loves Camryn's smart mouth and how she's not afraid to tell him like it is.
•  He loves that she is ambitious and driven to think and live outside of the box, and that she doesn't want to live a average life.
•  Andrew loves that Camryn takes his mom's feelings so often into consideration.
•  Her rockin' body and the intelligence and kindness that comes with it
•  Andrew loves that Camryn is so much like him.
Synopsis:
He was taking the long road. She was taking the road to nowhere. It just so happened that they led to the same place…

Determined to prove that their love can survive anything, Andrew decides to take Camryn on a new journey filled with hope and passion. If only he can convince her to come along for the ride…

 Review by Kindle Crack Book Reviews:
The Edge of Always (The Edge of Never, #2)The Edge of Always by J.A. Redmerski
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
ARC kindly provided by Netgalley and Hachette Book Group, Grand Central Publishing Forever in exchange for an honest review.  No cliff hanger. Book one should be read first. Spoiler-free review.  Release date – November 5th.  Five stars.

The Edge of Always is the stunning conclusion of J.A. Redmerski’s The Edge of Never series. Camryn and Andrew are back on the road living their dream in book two.  Their spontaneous adventure continues with a few painful pit stops and detours to tackle some real issues with drugs, dependency and health.  Camryn and Andrew’s hearts were like passports…stamped with so many emotions. They visited love, lust, pleasure, pain and depression to name a few.

TEOA unravels from both Camryn and Andrew's POV.  It was so nice getting into Andrew's head and I think I might love him a little more in book two!  There were times that I wanted to hug and smack the heck out of Camryn (but mostly hug).  The Edge of Never (Book #1) is still my favorite…but book two was certainly worth the wait.  JRed did not disappoint -- if anything she exceeding my expectations with how this story continued.  The Edge of Always had me on the edge of my seat up until the very last page. I was swept away in Camryn and Andrew’s emotional road map and loved the way this story played out.

I can only wish a spin off with a new character that came into the picture. Maybe we will be lucky and get “The Edge of Forever”? This book is an absolute must read. Thanks for the Kindle Crack J.A. Redmerski.

Promo Blog Tour - Hers by Dawn Robertson

I think I just found my next steamy and twisted book. I just added Her by Dawn Robertson to my TBR.  Check out the synopsis below. 



Synopsis:
I am weak.
I am lonely.
I am a slut.
I am strong.
I am Dominant.
I am independent.
I am Seven James.

 My entire life, no one has wanted me, and that was fine, because I sure as shit didn't need anyone else. Blah, Blah Blah, insert sad story here about negligent parents, and shitty siblings, and you have my life story in a nut shell. When my college boyfriend dumped me, it was just icing on the cake. Five years, and a booming career later I am here to collect my revenge.

 That was until a delicious plaything walked into the kink club I frequent, and rocked my typically un-rockable world. Causing me to break the one rule I have lived by since Daniel Alexander walked out of my life, never have sex with the same person twice. Ever.

 Warning!!!! Hers contains sexually explicit situations that may be uncomfortable for some. These include FF, FMF, and MFM interactions

Author: Kerry Heavens
Release Date: October 22, 2013

Synopsis
Danny and Liv are back...

 Danny loves Liv. He knows he loves her more than she loves him because she ran without a word when she saw their future mapped out before her. He knows he will never love anyone like he loved her and this time he doesn’t think he can move on.

 Liv loves Danny. She knows she loves him more than he loves her because he broke her heart in the worst possible way, right when things were falling into place. She knows she will never love anyone like she loves him and this time she doesn’t think she can move on.

Kindle Crack Book Reviews: Still Human (Just Human #2)
I feel so lucky I didn’t have to wait to read the sequel to Just Human. What a cliffhanger!  Still Human (Just Human #2) picks up right where JH left off with Liv and Danny.  I can’t believe it took me so long to read this series.   I felt so many emotions reading Still Human. Aghhh. Grab a box of tissues and prepared to go into lock down lode mode to read this gut wrenching and beautifully written sequel.  I think Kerry Heavens is such an incredible story teller.  I loved the way this story unfolded through Danny and Liv’s pov.  There were times I was so incredibly frustrated and wanted to smack them both.  Danny is too nice.  Yes, I added him to my book boyfriend list.  Go one click this one (actually both books 1 & 2).  I can guarantee you will want to read book two a millisecond after you finish book one.  4.5 stars.

This review appears on www.kindlecrack.net, www.facebook.com/Kindlecrack, Goodreads, Amazon and Twitter.

Excerpt:
Danny’s hand slides over my stomach as his tongue twists around my hard nipple. I’ve never wanted him more. It feels so urgent, like it could be taken away at any second. “oh!’ I moan, startled by the sound. Why does it feel odd to make that sound? 
His fingers slide into my underwear and I groan again, another strangled sound which takes me by surprise. My whole body aches for him, but he misses out the place I want him most. I try to move to guide his fingers, but this just makes him move further away.
He pulls his lips away from my nipple and I gasp. I beg him to take me, but he laughs. His gaze falls over something behind me and I turn to see what has taken his attention from me. But my body lets me down, I can't turn. I can only lie flat and the ache I thought I felt for Danny now feels like a physical pain, restricting my body. A woman appears beside me, it’s her…Brooke.
 “Look at me,” I beg him. “I need you.” Tears sting my eyes.
They both laugh at this. With his hand still circling inside my underwear he begins to kiss her. I watch helplessly, sobbing and pleading with him to love me. I cry out as he finally pulls his hand away from me and turns it to her.

Cover Reveal - More Than Her by Jay McLean


I more than excited to read More Than Her by Jay McLean.  I absolutely LOVED More Than This (Book 1#). It's one of those books that will stick with me forever…just like Colleen Hoover’s Slammed and Hopeless.  So you can imagine that I am more than excited to read book two.  This is a no brainer....one click both.  


Cover reveal of More Than Her by Jay McLean
Blurb:
"For every action there is an equal or opposite reaction. "For every choice you make there are rewards, or there are consequences.It was my choice to walk away the first time.
And my choice to chase her the second.But sometimes you don't get a choice, and all you get are the consequences.

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.” Unless that someone is Logan Matthews. Because loving him didn't give me the strength to walk away.It didn't give me the courage to fight for him. And when it was over, all it gave me was a broken heart.

Review of More Than This On Kindle Crack Book Reviews:
More Than This (More, #1)More Than This by Jay McLean
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow effing wow!  Where did this book come from?  I read More Than This in one sitting.  I couldn’t put this book down if I tried.

Mikayla has it all.  She has it all….an amazing family, boyfriend and best friend.  Its prom night and she is ready to go make some memories. While at a pre-prom dinner some ass clown spills a drink down the back of her dress to get her attention.  She runs off to the bathroom to dry off and finds walking into the beginning of the worst night of her life.  Mikayla’s world is turned upside down.  Nothing will be the same and life as she knows it is just a memory.  Enter Jake Andrews…a hot Aussie transplant who helps Mikayla try and get her reassemble her shattered existence.

I’m not a “swooner” but Jake effing Andrews has made me into one.  That is all.

I want to remain spoiler free and not ruin this book for you.  Be prepared to go on a tsunami sized emotional roller coaster. I never saw the ending coming…talk about twists and turns! I laughed cried big ugly tears and even wanted to throw my Kindle a few times.  More Than This by Jay McLean is one of those books that will stick with me forever…just like Colleen Hoover’s Slammed and Hopeless.  FYI – the characters are seniors in high school/college freshman – but this not a YA book.  There is no cliffhanger but a HUGE set up for the next book.  FIVE baseball sized stars! Read this now.

Review will appear on www.KindleCrack.net, www.facebook.com/KindleCrack, Goodreads, Amazon, and Twitter.
