Excerpt:

They say when you love someone you’ll do anything for them. Absolutely anything. That’s the beauty of true love. I know that I never thought it would feel like this. I never thought it would be like this. So deep, dark and twisted. True love is something everyone wishes for and now that I have it, I don’t know what I’m going to do.

Liam Amore, that was his name. He was tall, dark, handsome and there was a hint of danger that bubbled at his surface. I was attracted to the danger. I craved the danger. I needed the danger. Being with Liam was like constantly living life on the edge. He made me feel things I’ve never felt before. He was like a drug that I constantly craved. And I was his muse. I was his everything. Everything was perfect until I found out his secret. That was when everything changed and I became someone that even I didn’t recognize.

Title: Happenstance
ASIN: B00JOPR0ZK
#1 New York Times Bestseller Jamie McGuire returns to self-publishing with this page-turning YA account of Erin Easter, one of three Erins in the small senior class of rural Blackwell High School who not only share a first name, but also their birthday. Easter, raised by a neglectful single mom, keeps to herself and admires Weston Gates from afar. The other Erins, Erin "Alder" Alderman and Erin "Sonny" Masterson are the darlings of the community: daughters of the two wealthiest families in town, best friends, cheerleaders, and everything Easter isn't--and they never let her forget it. Alder has even claimed Weston since the 8th grade.

Weston is a well-liked star athlete, and the son of two prominent attorneys. He struggles daily with the pressures of living up to his family name and secretly empathizes with Easter's feeling that she belongs somewhere else; in a different life. Not until he begins sneaking nights out with Easter does he gain the courage to buck expectations and acknowledge his feelings ... both for his future, and for her.

A shocking tragedy rocks the tiny town, and Easter's life is turned upside down in the best way possible. But when the truth is revealed and everything she thinks she wanted falls into her lap, life only becomes more complicated.

Review of Finding My Way on Kindle Crack Book Reviews
Finding My Way (The Beaumont Series, #4)Finding My Way by Heidi  McLaughlin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just when I thought this series could not get any better...it did!
It's no secret I am a Heidi McLaughlin fan.  She has auto download status on my Kindle.  I read all four books in this series and loved them all.  Initially, I wondered how much this prequel could add to this series-- since I thought I knew Liam and Josies' story.  Finding My Way added a whole new level of depth and dimension to this story. I was captivated from the first to the last page.  There were a few times that  I wanted to smack Liam and a few times that I wanted to hug him.    Finding My Way gets five huge rock stars.

A Song For Us


Synopsis:
In this highly anticipated follow-up to White Trash Damaged, Cass and Tucker have
finally found their happily ever after, but can Eric, the band’s brooding drummer, ever
let go of his past and find love?

From a small-town boy with fantasies of superstardom to rock star on tour with the suddenly famous
band Damaged, Eric’s life has not been an easy journey. Now he struggles to let go of his past of
physical abuse, a past that still haunts him. His anger is causing him to spiral out of control and he
risks losing everything he has worked so hard for.

Only one person has ever gotten him to open up about his past: Sarah, the lead singer of Filth, the
opening act on their first national tour—a fellow rocker with a confident façade that masks her own
painful secrets. But their bands’ rocky past and Sarah’s tumultuous relationship with her bandmate
and boyfriend Derek force her to keep Eric at a distance. As their friendship begins to grow into
something more, Eric has to find a way to let go of his tortured past, or it could jeopardize his only
chance for a happy future...

About Teresa Mummert:
I was a Russian spy at the ripe age of thirteen, given my uncanny ability to tell if someone was lying
(I also read fortunes on the weekends). By sixteen I had become too much of a handful for the Lethal
Intelligence Ensemble (L.I.E.). I was quickly exiled to the south of France where I worked with wayward elephants in the Circus of Roaming Animals and People (C.R.A.P.). I was able to make ends meet by selling my organs on the black market for pocket change and beer money. At the age of twenty three I decided to expand my horizons and become a blackjack dealer in Ireland. I loved the family atmosphere at Barney's Underground Liquor Lounge (B.U.L.L.). People couldn't resist the allure of Liquor up front and poker in the rear. Eventually I became tired of the rear and headed off to the United States to try my hand at tall tales. That is what brings us here today. If you have a moment I'd like to tell you a story.

Cover Reveal & Giveaway - Overwhelmed By You by Nashoda Rose

Overwhelmed By You by Nashoda Rose promises to be "A contemporary romance with lots of angst and a taste of dark." This June release sounds like some absolute Kindle Crack! Check out the synopsis, except and Nashoda's paperback giveaway.

OBY_final_pick-ebook-copy

Book Title:  Overwhelmed by You
Author: Nashoda Rose
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date:June 3, 2014
Synopsis


Love is ugly and secrets will destroy you.


KAT

I don’t beg.

I don’t cry.

And I don’t give second chances.

Ream, the lead guitarist of the rock band Tear Asunder, deserves a gold medal for best dick move ever when he ran the moment he discovered my secret after two days of hot sex. Then he brings some chick to my coming home party from the hospital—after being shot.

I hate him.


Until …

Ream’s six foot two frame unfolds out of the car after being gone on tour for eight months. I stared. And in my defense, any girl would stare. It would almost be rude not to because Ream was the type of guy who stood out. Not because he was loud and obnoxious. No, it was because he was the complete opposite. Subtle and dangerously quiet. If he spoke, you’d better hope he liked you because otherwise you’d be falling at his feet begging for mercy. Except me … I don’t beg—ever.

But when our eyes locked, it was Ream’s steady confidence that had my nerves shooting off like jet sprinklers.


Then…

Ream told me he didn’t need a second chance because he was still working on his first.


REAM

Sex is ugly. It’s using someone for your own narcissistic pleasure. I did it and I hated it—until her. She was unfuckinexpected. Then I had to wreck our beginning with my screwed up past.


I don’t deserve her, but I’m selfish and I’m taking her anyway. This is who I am and it’s too late to change me.

*Warning contains violence, sexual content, and coarse language. Mature audiences 18+*
A contemporary romance with lots of angst and a taste of dark.

Bang....I need to read this now!

This looks like some mighty fine dark and twisted Kindle Crack.  Check out Bang (The Black Lotus Series (Book #1)  by E.K. Blair.  Read an excerpt below.



TITLE: Bang
SERIES: The Black Lotus Series (Book #1)
GENRE: Psychosexual Suspense / Romance 
RELEASE DATE: May 26, 2014

SYNOPSIS:
They say when you take revenge against another you lose a part of
your innocence.
But I’m not innocent.
I haven’t been for a very long time.
My innocence was stolen from me. Taken was the life I was supposed
to have. The soul I was born with. The ruby heart embedded in a life
full of hopes and dreams.
Gone.
Vanished.
I never even had a choice.
I mourn that life. Mourn the what-ifs.
Until now.
I’m ready to take back what was always meant to be mine.
But every plan has a fatal flaw. Sometimes it’s the heart

**Due to the dark and explicit nature of this book, it is 
recommended for mature audiences only as some scenes 
may be particularly disturbing.**

EXCERPT FROM BOOK:
In an instant, he's crouched down before me, hands spreading me
open wider before dipping his tongue inside me. I continue massaging
myself as he laps me up like I’m the only one who can quench his thirst.
He sickens me, and as soon as I feel the swirl of hate manifest, I turn
every part of me off and simply go through the movements I know he likes.
I’m a well-oiled machine at this point, flawless in my performance.
He has no idea that I’m the poison in his bones, making my home in
his soul. I’ve crept under his skin, and he never suspected a thing other
than everything I’ve wanted him to, but he’s made my life a hell, and
payback is a wicked bitch that comes in the form of me. I’m the devil
seeped within the cracks of him. What he doesn’t know, is that it’s
because of him that I am what I am, and he’s fallen into the cobwebs of my
lies like a fool. I guess I should love him for that, because when he least
suspects it, he’s going to give me everything I’ve been seeking—
vengeance.

I Love Boys Who Love Boys - Make You Mine by Ann Lister Cover Reveal

The Rock God series by Ann Lister is absolutely "unputabledownable".  This m/m rock star romance series is nuclear hot.  I  have a feeling I will be throwing a bucket of ice over my head at least once while reading Make You Mine.  Check out the synopsis below and add this yummy new gay romance book to your list.  

Title:  Make You Mine (Book #3 Rock Gods)
Author: Ann Lister
Release Date: Early May

Synopsis:
Cooper Rand is the high-energy drummer for his band Ivory Tower. Everyone is drawn to Cooper; which makes him the go-to party guy for those lucky enough to call him friend. He loves the lifestyle that comes along with being a rock star and feels perfectly suited for the role. He is also a professional when it comes to the hook-up, unwilling to stick around long enough to allow emotions to enter into what he's doing. He's lived his entire life 'in the moment' and it isn't until he meets Jayson that he begins to question the direction of his life and if he's been missing out on something truly special all this time.

Jayson Keller has spent most of his life living on the island of Martha's Vineyard working as a builder.
Living on a small, conservative island also has Jayson working overtime to keep his sexual orientation
secret. He has mastered the art of hiding in the closet, but he doesn't want it to be a forever thing.
Jayson always said if the right man came along he'd happily leave the safety of his closet and live openly as a gay man. The problem is, living where he does limits his partner options and finding someone worth coming out of that closet for seems an unlikely prospect.

A party at Alex Metcalf's island estate brings Cooper and Jayson face-to-face. Lightning strikes hot and fast and suddenly their lives take a whole new path. Has Jayson finally met a man worth leaving his self-imposed closet? Have a couple of hours spent alone with Jayson opened Cooper to the idea there is a deeper meaning to life beyond the stage and the value of a committed relationship? But, a bigoted
family and the rock star lifestyle could ruin everything and keep both men searching for what was
standing right in front of them: a soul mate.

Out of the Shadows by Samantha Young is LIVE - Release Giveaway & Excerpt


New from Samantha Young!  Enter Samantha's giveaway & read an excerpt of Out of the Shadows!


Synopsis
From the New York Times bestselling author of Into the Deep
LIVE YOUNG. LIVE HARD. LOVE DEEP.
Charley and Jake’s story concludes in Out of the Shallows…
Somehow, after everything they’ve been through, Jake Caplin and Charley Redford made their way back to one another. But finding each other and staying together are two completely different things.
When Charley’s world is flipped upside down, she begins to question the choices and decisions she’s made since her arrival in Edinburgh, and in an effort to grip onto what she holds most dear she believes she must sacrifice her love for Jake.
Returning to the States for her senior year, Charley struggles to find peace and happiness. While everyone else seems to be finding themselves in college, Charley is terrified that, along with almost everything else that’s important to her, she’s lost herself.
While friends and family deal with their own tumultuous lives, there is one person resolved to uncover the reason behind Charley’s sudden defection and unhappiness. Refusing to give up without a fight, Jake believes he is the only one who can truly understand what Charley is going through, and this time he’s determined to prove he’s there for her no matter what obstacles are thrown in their way.
However, as Charley strives to make it through the biggest personal journey of her life thus far, there is no guarantee that the woman she is becoming will still need Jake as much as the girl she once was did...

Excerpt
I couldn’t actually dispute any of that, which made me even more pissed, hurt, defensive, scared and … confused.
I started to shiver. “I … I can’t do this.” I turned away.
I hadn’t taken two steps when I felt his hand wrap around my wrist. Jake tugged me, forcefully, pulling me around so I stumbled into his chest. His lips crashed down on mine, his kiss hungry, desperate, angry …
For a moment I forgot everything else but the hard pressure of his mouth on mine, the smell of his cologne, the feel of his body. I was surrounded.
Drowning.
And I let it happen.
His lips moved from my mouth to my chin, along my jaw, as his hand slid up my waist, his thumb just grazing my breast. I sighed, my body arching into his. I was hot. Hot and wanting. Nothing else mattered but the way I felt when he touched me.
His voice was ragged in my ear. “I’ve missed you so much. I love you so fucking much.” He squeezed my waist and pulled me closer, his mouth reaching for mine again but those three little words had broken through the spell of lust created by Jake’s proximity and the four beers I’d had.
“Stop,” I whispered, pushing gently on his chest.
