Cover Designer: Sommer Stein

Roan Diamond’s loyalty to the family may be obligated by blood, but nobody ever said he had to love them all, right?

As the next in line to head the Diamond dynasty, he has loose ends to take care of, and one of those is his brother Royal. Yet his plans for revenge fall
apart the minute he lays eyes on Alina—Royal’s ex-girlfriend, who also happens to be the daughter of the rival Solokov family.

As a mafia princess, Alina Solokov knew it wouldn’t be easy when she made the decision ten years ago to leave the family for a new life at a college in
England—but betrayal is often a dish served cold by those who you love the most. Now, back in the United States after a job offer that she couldn’t refuse,
her new found strength is pushed to the limits when Royal returns to claim her for his own.

When the man who captures her heart amongst the chaos is front and center in a lifestyle she swore never to return to, can she hold her ground and fight
being sucked back into the black hole that is the mafia underworld? Or will Roan’s love be worth the ultimate sacrifice?

We are absolutely thrilled to bring you the dual cover reveal for Cora Carmack’s Muse Series! INSPIRE and INFLICT are New Adult Paranormal Romance novels and are book 1 and 2 in the Muse Series. INFLICT is due to be released in January 2016! These beautiful covers were designed by Regina Wamba of Mae I Design. Be sure to grab your copy of INSPIRE today!

Amazon eBook ** Amazon Paperback

INSPIRE (Book 1):

Kalliope lives with one purpose.

To inspire.

As an immortal muse, she doesn’t have any other choice. It’s part of how she was made. Musicians, artists, actors—they use her to advance their art, and she uses them to survive. She moves from one artist to the next, never staying long enough to get attached. But all she wants is a different life— a normal one. She’s spent thousands of years living lie after lie, and now she’s ready for something real.

Sweet, sexy, and steady, Wilder Bell feels more real than anything else in her long existence. And most importantly… he’s not an artist. He doesn’t want her for her ability. But she can’t turn off the way she influences people, not even to save a man she might love. Because in small doses, she can help make something beautiful, but her ability has just as much capacity to destroy as it does to create. The longer she stays, the more obsessed Wilder will become. It’s happened before, and it never turns out well for the mortal.

Her presence may inspire genius.

But it breeds madness, too.

And check out the gorgeous cover for INFLICT, coming January 2016!

About INFLICT (Book 2):

Wilder Bell made a dangerous bargain…

For a chance at love, he gave up his life.

History knew Kalliope as an ancient Greek muse, but to Wilder, she was simply the woman he wanted to fall asleep with every night and wake up next to every morning. He made a deal with Hades, but the only thing the Lord of the Underworld deals in is death. Now Wilder is wasting away in a cold and wretched afterlife, waiting for Kalli to come for him. She will come. He has to believe that. Because the alternative is worse than death.

Kalliope lived her entire existence knowing that she was both a blessing and a curse to anyone she encountered. Wilder was no different. She loved him, and she got him killed. Now to get him back, she’ll have to face a scheming god, a perilous task, and death itself. But before it’s done, the Underworld will take more from her than she ever thought possible.

To be made whole, all must first be lost.

Untouchable Darkness

The Dark Ones Saga – Book 2

By Rachel Van Dyken

Release Date: December 29, 2015

Pre Order for .99

Amazon / B & N / ITunes / Kobo / Smashwords

Synopsis

To love a Dark One is to invite death…

It is wrong to love her.
It is worse to want her.
It is sin to consume her.
I desire all three.

I’ve been given thirty days to prove my love to another immortal–as a human. Cursed to use nothing but the side of myself I’ve always despised to win her affection. I am Cassius, the King of the immortals, A Dark One.
And today I tasted fear for the first time.
How can I win her when my human emotions over take every ounce of logic I possess?
A darkness is brewing.
One I cannot stop as a human.
One that Stephanie, my loves visions, have shown, will be my end.
Thirty days ago I was King of the immortals.
Today I know fear.
Today I know how I will die.
By her hand.
The woman I love.​

______________________________________________

To touch a Dark One is death.

To talk to an immortal is suicide.

Yet, I’ve been marked by both.

A Vampire.

And the King of the immortals.

My life is no longer my own.

And now I know the truth, my life was never mine to begin
with.

It was theirs.

It’s always been theirs.

Tracey’s Review

When Cate Forbes meets Drew McKnight, it doesn’t take long for the fairy tale to begin. Attraction quickly turns to love, to a perfect life shared between lovers. Life is beautiful. But when the unthinkable happens, with loss so great that Cate isn’t sure how to go on, the face of her life becomes more cruel than she can bear. Second chances, though, have a way of showing up when least expected.

When I received the synopsis for this book I was not sure that I could read it, because it looked like I would be ugly crying for sure, and, while I like some angst in my books, I really am all about the happily ever after. After hearing that it was an absolute must-read, and would not disappoint, in I went, and am I ever happy that I did. A.M. Hargrove and Terri E. Laine have written a book that is, by turn, joyous, devastating, and life-affirming, and I enjoyed it very much.

Written from Cate’s point of view, CRUEL AND BEAUTIFUL alternates between past and present, from the early days of her burgeoning and passionate relationship with Drew to her current life. Filled with characters that are intelligent, realistic, passionate, and humorous, this is a difficult but very fulfilling book. I was hooked immediately and entirely, and couldn’t stop reading until I got to the end, because I just HAD to see how everything tied together.

There are twists that I cannot give away for fear of ruining the reading experience for anyone, but I will absolutely say that this book should be on your list of books to read this year. 4.5 heartbreaking, uplifting, second-chance stars for CRUEL AND BEAUTIFUL; do yourself a favor and don’t miss this one.

ABOUT A. M. HARGROVE

One day, on her way home from work as a sales manager A. M. Hargrove realized her life was on fast forward and if she didn’t do something soon, it would be too late to write that work of fiction she had been dreaming of her whole life. So she rolled down the passenger window of her fabulous (not) company car and tossed out her leather briefcase. Luckily, the pedestrian in the direct line of fire was a dodge ball pro and had ¸ber quick reflexes enabling him to avoid getting bashed in the head. Feeling a tad guilty about the near miss, A. M. made a speedy turn down a deserted side street before tossing her crummy, outdated piece-of-you-know-what laptop out the window. She breathed a liberating sigh of relief, picked up her cell phone, called her boss, and quit her job. Grinning, she made another call to her hubs and told him of her new adventure (after making sure his heart was beating properly again).

So began A. M. Hargrove’s career as a Naughty and Nice Romance Author.

Her books include Adult, New Adult and Young Adult Romances, including, The Guardians of Vesturon Series (Survival, Resurrection, Determinant, reEmergent, and the novella Beginnings); Dark Waltz and Death Waltz (The Praestani Novels); The Edge Series (Edge of Disaster, Shattered Edge, and Kissing Fire); The Tragic Series (Tragically Flawed and Tragic Desires); Exquisite Betrayal; Dirty Nights: The Novel; and The Hart Brothers Novels (Freeing Her, Freeing Him, and Kestrel).

Please find her at www.amhargrove.com.

ABOUT TERRI E. LAINE

Wife and mother of three, I’ve always been an avid reader. In my early years, my best friend and I would tell each other stories over the phone when we were bored. We called them our “soap operas” and generally revolved around whatever boy we liked at the time.

Over five years ago, I got this crazy idea to write a novel and try to publish it. And the rest is history. This journey has been a blessing, and a dream realized. I look forward to many more memories to come.

Rolling In The Deep 

By Rebecca Rogers Maher

Synopsis

In this raw, moving novel for readers of Jill Shalvis, Molly O’Keefe, and Karina Halle, two kindred spirits share a winning lottery ticket—and discover what it really means to get lucky.
Holly Ward is stretched to the breaking point, raising her young son alone and working long hours for minimum wage at a local superstore. Sure, she’s noticed the new guy with the easy grin and warm brown eyes, but she’s learned the hard way that relationships aren’t worth the pain. Still, when he invites her to split a lottery ticket, she figures a little innocent fun couldn’t hurt. The last thing she expects is to score big, which is exactly what happens . . . in more ways than one.
From the moment he meets Holly, Ray Lopez is drawn to her quiet dignity and openhearted beauty. And when they hit the jackpot together, he’s thrilled that the single mom can give her kid a better life. The only problem is the chaos surrounding them: lawyers and reporters swarming, friends and family angling to get their cut. In all the chaos, Ray discovers an oasis of calm and passion in Holly. But with the stakes higher than ever, winning her trust could cost him everything.

Tina’s Review

⭐ ⭐ Provided by Netgalley in Exchange for an Honest Review ⭐ ⭐

Judging a Book by it’s Cover:
Chastely kissing couple, sun flare and water in background. Synopsis sounded somewhat reminiscent of 1994’s “It Could Happen To You”, which was a fun movie.
Looking Deeper:
First person POV. Longer Novella > 150 – 200 pages. Divorced, single mom barely living week to week. New guy in town trying to follow his mom’s last directives before dying only a few months prior. They each put in a dollar for a Powerball ticket where the jackpot is over 200 million – and their ticket is the sole winner. But things are not all “… and they live Happily Ever After” once they win. There are many undesirable issues that come with such a sudden windfall and these two young adults must learn to navigate the minefield that their lives have suddenly become.
Ray is truly a solid character. Kind, considerate, mature. I really enjoyed his character. Holly, on the other hand, needed a backbone. I really hate men like Brett and the fact that she allowed things to progress like they did after divorcing and put up with being treated like that by her ex? That was disappointing and annoying enough, but then to allow it in front of her son? That enforces Drew’s dad’s negative behavior as acceptable. That is NOT okay in my mind, for any reason. The other secondary characters represented the best and the worst of mankind.
The chemistry between Ray and Holly was a natural one. Under extreme circumstances, it’s often wondered if it’s “just the adrenaline”, like a survivor’s rush of having to validate they are still alive. Dialogue was good, interaction was good… most of my issues still revolve around Holly and her insecurities and indecisive attitudes. Other than Brett’s depravity and Chad Winters being a douchebag of amoral standards, the plot lacked the truer depth of the darker aspects that money can and does draw out in others. Several missed opportunities, grazed over but never fully explored. The flow of the plot is smooth and fluid. The conflicts in the end are resolved in somewhat rather vague manners. Predictability is low. The conclusion is abrupt, again creating some missed opportunities. The epilogue provides mediocre closure, but it’s just not quite satisfying nor as solid as I’d have liked it to be. Overall, it’s not a bad read. It’s a fast-paced, rags-to-riches story.

My boss just loaned me out to this guy.

I wanted her.

Really wanted her.

And I was in the position to change the course of her life.

But I’ve got secrets, secrets that could destroy her.

Rebound Remedy

By Christine D’Abo

Synopsis

The last thing Cole expects to get for the holidays is dumped. But there he is, in the airport on his way to Banff for a romantic getaway, helplessly watching as his boyfriend’s ex declares undying love, proposes—and is accepted. With a few weeks to go until Christmas, Cole’s mood dives from jolly to jaded. But instead of sitting at home alone and feeling sorry for himself, he goes to his favorite bar, McGregor’s, for a pint and some company.
The moment Owen McGregor sets eyes on Cole, he knows there’s something wrong. So he takes it upon himself to ensure that Cole has a happy holiday: twelve outings for the twelve days before Christmas. Even if he can’t quite think up twelve activities that don’t involve getting the forlorn hunk into his bed.
With each outing they take together, Cole realizes that the love he thought he’d shared with his ex was less than perfect. And that Owen might prove to be more than just his rebound remedy.

Tina’s Review

⭐ ⭐ Provided by Netgalley in Exchange for an Honest Review ⭐ ⭐

Judging a Book by it’s Cover:
Cozy pair of males, lounging fully clothed Holiday graphics overlayed.
Looking Deeper:
Third-person narrative with a dual-angle perspective. Holiday novella: 150 – 200 pages.
Do nice guys always finish last? Cole planned a wonderful holiday vacation for him and his boyfriend only to be left – dumped – at the airport when said boyfriend’s ex shows up with a dramatic apology and marriage proposal. Now Cole is alone for the holidays in an apartment that holds no holiday joy. Enter Owen, local pub owner. He’s seen Cole come into his pub on many occasions, seen Cole’s unwavering and selflessly kind spirit. Now he sees a broken-hearted man and, for some reason, is compelled to “fix” him. Both lead males are great characters with plenty of positive attributes. There are minimal secondary characters. While the compatibility is obvious from the start, the chemistry is a slow and natural progression. Neither man is in a place to rush things and they are smart enough to enter into the friendship with open eyes. The dialogue and interactions are mostly believable. The plot is good and the flow is great. There are a few small conflicts along the way, but they are resolved in a timely manner. Predictability is low. The conclusion was not as satisfying as I’d hoped, it felt unfinished and rushed… too abrupt. I’d have liked to have seen an Epilogue that detailed Owen’s father’s prognosis as well as the guys meeting each others’ families down the road. Overall, not bad. I just was not a huge fan of it ending like it did.
