​​​​​​Ryker Powers was the biggest prick I’d ever met.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​He was also my biggest mistake.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​He’d taken what he wanted then left, and I detested him for it. Not that the jerk had cared to stick around long enough to know how I felt.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​Everyone thought he was a perfect gentleman with all his quiet intensity but I knew better.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​I knew he had a filthy mouth. That he liked things dirty.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​He may have had people fooled into thinking he was a nice guy but I knew exactly who he was.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​He was a bad boy who’d ask for a light from the devil himself.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​And I wanted to see him burn.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​Until I realized—to my utter horror—that what I really wanted was him.
​​​​​
​​​​​​ 
​​​​​
​​​​​​Who was going to get burned now?

Note from the Author

Dear Reader,

Mental illness is a growing concern in our world today. On the Rocks is about surviving the aftermath of suicide, and believing in love again. Levi and Braunwyn’s love story is inspired by events that impacted the lives of people I care about deeply. With all of the research and ongoing concerns with mental health, I’ve decided to try and do something to bring awareness and light to this growing concern. I will be donating 10% of all pre-order and release week profits to Canadian Mental Health Association.

Blog Tour!!! Lawless-- T.M. Frazier!!!


Lady Fraizer!! What have you done to me?? To the book world?? How are we supposed to last until February to see the conclusion of Tia and Bear's story? How, I ask?? This book, God, what a mind trip--- in only the BEST way!! Just like with King, my head, my heart- my soul, are left dying. 
Bear and Thia are just as raw, gritty and real as King and Doe- maybe even more so. The things that Bear has endured, the things he has seen and done- they will break you. Thia is his one shining light in a world of continuous darkness. She is his beacon, the one thing that keeps him in the belief that he is able to love and be loved, even if he isn't sure how. 
Previously, I had said that no book would ever leave me with such a hangover as King did. I was wrong. Because then, Lawless happened. Quite literally, at the end of this book- the bottom drops out. Bear makes the ultimate sacrifice for love, and in turn- sets off a chain of events that we never saw coming. My heart stopped, the expletives came, and then- the rage, the confusion, and mostly- the anticipation.
I still haven't gotten over this book and I'm certain that I never will. It's just that damn good. I would give it a million plus one stars if I could, but since I can't- I'll settle for 5. 5 blindingly glorious stars!!!!



Lawless is book three in the King Series 
and is Bear and Thia's raw, and gritty tale!

New Release!!! On The Rocks-- Gillian Jones!!!




If it's possible, I think that I love Levi Eddison more than his brother, and that's saying a lot, seeing as how Ryker was amazing!! But, seeing Levi with Braun and the way he handled her, the way he handled her daughter, I couldn't help but be head over heels. 
Gillian was right to place the forward in the book about mental illness and suicide, because this book deals heavily with both- especially for Braun. The things she endures, before even meeting Levi, are heartbreaking. They're things that would break most people beyond repair, but somehow she finds a way to pick up her pieces and carry on. Luckily, Levi is the perfect guy to help her do that. Her family, is fantastic, and they make the story even more wonderful. 
I adore this series, and am so glad that I've been lucky enough to review it, as these characters resonate with me so much. Gillian does a fantastic job of bringing to light some heavier subject matter, and still keeps the book from becoming too dark. I hope that we get more from the Pub fiction gang soon because I love them, and would love to see Luke get his own book too!! Hint, hint Gillian!!! 
5 stars!!!

Blog Tour!!! The Homespun Holiday-- Sarah O'Rourke!!!

Homespun Blog Tour Banner 


 Homespun cover 4

Dr. Mackenzie Daniels was a loner. He had the divorce, a far-away family, and well-known cranky persona to prove it. And if he had his way, he would continue on his loner way, in spite of the attempts of the townspeople to infiltrate his life with their irritating, so-called charming ways. That was...until he met the beautiful Nurse Millicent Robbins.

Millie Robbins had done the love and marriage thing, and all she could say was that she got a beautiful daughter out of the entire debacle. Love was not in her long-term plans when she graduated from nursing school, thank you very much....until she found herself falling head over heels for the grouchiest but most gorgeous doctor she’d ever met.

Can Mack and Millie find their way to love in spite of their histories? Can happiness actually exist for two star-crossed lovers?

Join the entire town of Paradise for a Christmas celebration of lasting love!

 HH Teaser Rockin Around the Christmas Tree


 
Dropping his hands on his hips, Mack looked at the clock hanging above the plasma television.  It was already half past five.  She was expecting him by six.  Since she only lived ten minutes away, he had plenty of time.  Dropping into the leather recliner in the corner – the one where he sat and read at night – he dropped his head back against the chair.  “Fuck,” he groaned out loud.  He didn’t know whether he dreaded tonight or was excited by it.  It had been years… literal years… since he’d taken a woman out on a date.  Sure, he’d fucked women more recently than that, but those were chicks he’d picked up in a bar or at a medical conference ... women that he’d had a few hours of shameless fun with before sending them on their merry way.  Each one of them had been carefully selected and knew the score before their clothes had ever come off.  If any of those ladies had been interested in more than the number of orgasms he could give them, he’d sent them off on their way with a wave and a smile.
Because he didn’t do long-term relationships anymore.  He certainly didn’t fucking date.
Except, now, it appeared he did.
What the hell kind of voodoo magic had Millicent Robbins worked on him when he wasn’t looking that now had him contemplating more than a casual fuck with a woman?
Because he knew it could never be casual with Millie.  And not just because she had a kid, either.
No, Millie was the type of woman with whom a man put down roots.  That kind of guy bought a house.  That type of man would get a dog.  That man would help her raise a family.  Holy shit, he’d already done two out three of those things, he realized with a horrified gasp.   
Bolting to his feet, he darted toward his phone.  He had to call this whole thing off before he found himself shackled to yet another woman that would end up hating him for his dedication to his job.  He had to cut Millie loose before she looked at him and accused him of wasting the best years of her life waiting for him to be ready to concentrate on them instead of rushing off to take care of his patients.
He’d dialed the first three numbers of her phone number before he realized….
“Millie isn’t Tiffany,” Mack said out loud as he stared at the phone in his hand.  Looking toward his Newfoundland dog, he grinned.  “She’s nothing like Tiffany, is she?”
One sharp yap from Nugget confirmed what he already knew and he slowly replaced the phone on its base.
“Holy shit,” he whispered, sinking onto the couch as he stared at his huge long-haired dog.  “Millie couldn’t be more different from Tiff if she tried.”  First off, Millie wasn’t injected with as much plastic as a Barbie doll.  Her tits still bounced when she walked, unlike his ex’s that sat like stone against her chest.  Millie loved babies and kids.  Hell, she even had one of her own that she loved with a passion that rivaled any parent’s love he’d ever seen.  Tiff, on the other hand, couldn’t stand babies.   Sad, since he’d loved children and had wanted them to have at least a couple of their own. She despised the idea of having to be responsible for another person.  Although, in hindsight, he supposed it wasn’t really shocking since she could barely accept responsibility for the things she did.  Most important of all, though, was the fact that he could never see Millie being unfaithful to him because she had something his ex-wife had always lacked.  Something called integrity.  If Millie wasn’t happy with him, she wouldn’t troll the local bars looking for an easy hook-up to dull the pain.  Hell, no.  Millicent would march right up to him, rip off his scrotum, and shake it over her head much like the Native Americans did when they’d taken a scalp from an enemy.   Oh, Millie would probably give him the opportunity to make things right with her before she resorted to violence, but if that was unsuccessful, he had no doubt she’d go the other route. 
His Millie could be a firecracker when crossed.
Fuck, now he was thinking of her with highly possessive pronoun usage?  He was well and truly screwed.

Review:

Alright, I know that everyone has heard me wax poetic about Sarah O'Rourke before, but really- how can I not?? These books, just oh my god. They are simply amazing, beautifully written words that drew me in from the first teaser. Every time that I read another of their books, I swear there's no way it can be better than the last, and I'm always wrong, because somehow it is. The Paradise clan holds a special piece of my heart, and will forever be some of my favorite characters written. That's just a fact of life. So, when I saw that Mack and Millie were going to be thrown together as the next couple, I was ecstatic. 
I fell for Mack's grumpy overbearing ways in Heart of Stone, and Millie only added to the love, being the one woman who could hand it all right back to him. These two were like a well oiled machine at work, even if they were like fire and gasoline everywhere else. And, we all know what happens to fire and gasoline---- kaboom. Talk about an explosion of lust with these two. Who would've thought the quiet grumpy doc would be such a dirty bird!! I loved it!! Every filthy thing to come out of his mouth, every sensual thought and touch he gave to Millie, everything. Nothing could've made me love him more, except for the way he was with Paisley. Heart obliterated. It was like Jake Stone dejavu!! 
I also adored that we got plenty of page time with the McKinnon fam as well, because really- what's a Paradise story without them? The Crazies did a bang up job with Mack and Millie, and only served to make me want more Paradise, and want it NOW!! If you haven't started this phenomenal series yet, which is one of my all time faves, DO IT NOW!!!! You cannot miss out on this goodness!! 
5, wishing there were more, stars!!!

Excerpt

At first she doesn't even know I'm there, and I have the pleasure of seeing her lying back, her eyes closed, one leg bent up and peeking out from the bubbles. And damn those fucking bubbles, they're covering everything else.

The universe is doing everything it can to prevent me from seeing my wife naked. I would laugh at that fact if it didn't bug me so damn much. I'm pretty sure karma is slapping me in the face for insulting her so many times, and karma is a bitch who has no fucks to give about my blue balls.

Her eyes suddenly snap open and she jumps when she sees me, water splashing around her.

"Tally, you scared the shit out of me. Why are you creeping around?" She crosses her arms over her chest and a few bubbles float up in the air. I love that my childhood nickname just slipped out of her mouth without her even realizing it. It sounded so intimate on her lips that I want to hear her say it again and again.

"I wasn't creeping; I just walked in. Should I wear a bell around my neck like the Princess?" I lean against the doorframe and gaze at her in the candlelight, her skin dewy from the moist heat, and I can't understand why she doesn't want me in that tub with her.

"What are you doing in here?"

I cross the room and kneel down next to the tub, taking in the way her eyes shift to my naked chest.

"I wanted to see your bath bomb in action." My eyes travel languidly down the length of her in the tub and catch glimpses of pink water under the bubbles.

"This one is actually a bubble bomb. See the bubbles?" She lifts her hand and blows the bubbles up over my head.

I grab her hand and bring it to my lips. "I see that. Pink water, too. Very pretty." I close my eyes as I kiss her hand, tasting the sweet water on her. "What flavor are you tonight? It's yummy."

She swallows and I can feel her hand trembling ever so slightly in mine. "It's cotton candy."

I nod my approval. "I like it. A lot."

She shifts in the water, lowering the leg that was up and raising the other, giving me a quick glimpse of her thigh as she does so.

"Do you think about me when you're in here?" I ask her, releasing her hand so I can dip my fingers into the warm water.

"I think about you all the time."

My heart does a funny lurch I'm pretty sure it ain't never done before. "Well, that's just about the best thing I've ever heard."

I let my hand slide farther into the water until it's gliding over her outer thigh under the bubbles. "The water feels slippery," I comment. "So does your skin."

"It's from the oils."

Stretching my other arm out along the edge of the tub, I lean toward her face. "I like how it feels. I should be in there with you, all slippery and wet."

"You're too big," she murmurs, locking her eyes on to mine.

Laughing, I kiss her vanilla flavored lips. "I'm gonna ignore that big comment, baby."

She smiles against my mouth. "You're so bad."

"I know… So, I'm going to have to do this the hard way, then. Since I can't get in there." I slide my hand farther down her leg, over her knee to her calf, squeezing gently.

"Do what?"

"Give you your first orgasm."

A small gasp of surprise comes out of her, and a seductive little grin graces her lips. "Sorry to disappoint you, but I've had orgasms before."

"Not from me." I rub my nose along hers, feeling her breath against my face. "And that's gonna change right now, Mrs. Valentine."

I cup the back of her head with one hand and press my mouth to hers, licking her lips while slowly dragging my other hand up the inside of her leg beneath the water to finally brush my fingers gently across her lower lips. I silently curse the water for not letting me feel her wetness.

Her mouth opens to mine and I delve my tongue inside, tasting the heat of her breath and catching the sweet moan she lets out when I push my finger into her warmth. Her thighs part and her hand comes up out of the water to caress my cheek as I let my hand own her, my thumb rubbing her pulsing clit while I slip my fingers in and out of her. My cock throbs like mad in my shorts, begging to get into her. Holy fuck, is she tight. Three years of no sex is very, very good.

Her thighs squeeze my hand and she grasps the side of my neck, her breath panting against my mouth, and I know she's there already. I really want to drag this out, tease her and make her crazy, but that seems cruel right now when she's writhing her hot little core all over my hand and devouring my lips. I like little horny Asia. A lot.

I want to pull her out of the tub and take her right here on the floor and put an end to this madness, but I'm hell-bent on sticking to my promise to her, even if my dick hates me.

Her walls clench and drench around my swirling fingers up inside her, while the rest of her body arches up, pressing against me, her muscles tightening and quivering. I kiss her softly as she recovers from the first of many sexual escapades I have planned for her now that the doors have been opened, so to speak.

"Who's my girl?" I whisper against her ear, moving my hand up to caress her stomach.

"Me," she answers breathlessly

"That's right."

My girl. The last thing I thought I would ever want, and now, all I could ever want.
