COVER REVEAL: Cocky Bastard by Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland


cocky bastard cover.jpg

RELEASE DATE: August 17th, 2015
He was someone who belonged in my wildest fantasies instead of a rest stop in the middle of Nebraska.

A sexy, cocky, Australian named Chance was the last person I expected to run into on my cross-country drive.

When my car broke down, we made a deal. Next thing I knew, we were traveling together, spending sexually-tense nights in hotels and taking unplanned detours.
My ordinary road trip turned into the adventure of a lifetime. It was all fun and games until things got intense.

I wanted him, but Chance wouldn’t make a move. I thought he wanted me too, but something was holding him back.

I wasn’t supposed to fall for the cocky bastard, especially when I knew we’d be going our separate ways.

All good things must come to an end, right?

Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.

In Deep by Brenda Rothert




In Deep 
by Brenda Rothert  
Buy on Amazon 


I’ve got a secret.

No one knows how I blow off steam, and that’s how I like it. Most of the time, I’m happy just being part of a big family in a small town. And those times I need to get away are mine and mine alone.
My secret stays safe until I meet her – the woman who simultaneously pisses me off and turns me on. She seems like a wallflower at first, but it turns out there’s a lot more to her than I realized. Despite her hidden strength, she has a vulnerability I can’t resist.

As we open up to each other, I realize she’s starting to mean everything to me. She doesn’t feel the same way, but that won’t stop me from doing whatever it takes to keep her safe – even if it means exposing my secret to her. I’m in way over my head, and all I can hope is that someday, she’ll feel the same way about me.


April

I pressed my lips together, silencing my indignation. Mousy? Librarian? Who the hell did Mason Lockhart think he was?

If only I was the kind of woman who’d fly out from behind the corner I was hiding around and defend myself. Poke a finger against his chest and show him just how unmousy I was.

But I wasn’t that kind of woman. His words hurt because of the spark of truth they held. My cheeks were flaming with embarrassment as I managed to sneak into another room to hide from view so they wouldn’t see me. I’d die of shame if Reed and Mason saw me, or if they knew I’d accidentally overheard their conversation.

I’d been waiting to meet Mason and thank him for helping move my stuff in. Ivy and I got back early and I had headed down to my room to start unpacking. But I heard the brothers talking as they headed to my room and I didn’t want to interrupt so I managed to make myself scarce. But I still heard every word of their conversation. Fat lot of good that had done me. Now I knew Reed’s brother thought I was a frumpy, mousy bore.

But, seriously, did Mason Lockhart think people got dressed up for moving day? I’d just pulled a U-Haul truck from Seattle to Lovely, Missouri, stopping at motels on the way. Today I’d completed the last leg of the journey and judging by the dark skies it looked as if I arrived in the nick of time. I’d be willing to guess that snow was in the forecast. This morning, after I’d showered and looked through my stuff for my hair dryer and clean clothes, I hadn’t been able to find exactly what I wanted.

And that was why my long curly hair was wound into a bun and I was wearing a random, longish skirt. But the cardigan? That was totally on purpose because it was soft and warm. Mason Lockhart could piss off if he didn’t like it.

I’d seen him at Ivy and Reed’s summer wedding. The Lockhart brothers were pretty much impossible to miss. They were the quintessential tall, dark and handsome man – times five. Other than Reed, I didn’t know any them. Except, possibly, Mason. I doubted I’d ever forget his name now.


These Lockhart Brothers are going to do me in! Mason Lockhart is just as swoon worthy as his brother Reed and I just couldn't put this book down.

Mason Lockhart comes from a big family - all brothers and all successful in their own ways. Mason is the smart one - graduating from MIT, running his own computer business. He's the only one in the family besides the youngest brother who has not settled down. Getting pressure from his brothers and family, is just not helping either. He likes his manwhore ways and really doesn't see the appeal to having one woman all the times.

When his sister-in-law's best friend, April, moves to Lovely to help run the teen pregnancy house, Mason helps Reed move the "mousy librarian" into the home as the new house mom. But looks can be deceiving and soon Mason realizes that April isn't everything he thought she was.

Mason also has some big secrets that he's been hiding from his family - thinking they will never understand his excuses of why. As April and Mason start to become friends, he feels a pull towards her that he's never experienced with anyone else...letting April in on his secret.

April has been burned in the past. She just doesn't know what to think of Mason Lockhart. She knows his reputation and has seen it first hand, but there is no denying that the two of them together - fireworks explode. Can she open up to the guy that she knows will end up breaking her heart if she just lets go? Or is he playing her and it's all going to end before it even gets started.

April and Mason as combustible. I loved their push and pull and couldn't wait to see what happened next. It was quite the page turner and my only complaint is that I just wanted more. Loved seeing Ivy and Reed involved in the storyline too and now I'm on pins and needles waiting for the next Lockhart brother to steal my heart.

When You're Back by Abbi Glines


From #1 New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines comes the next new adult novel in her beloved Rosemary Beach series, which continues the story of Mase and Reese from When I’m Gone.

“She was where my home would always be. It was time I took the next step and proved to her I was all in. Forever.”

A chance meeting in Rosemary Beach has turned into a fairy-tale romance as Reese prepares to move in with Mase on his family ranch in Texas. With the loving support of the Colts, and her recent discovery that she has family of her own, Reese can finally move on from the dark horrors of her past and into a bright future.

But Aida isn’t going to let that happen. The beautiful blonde has been raised to think of Mase as her cousin, but it’s clear to Reese that Aida doesn’t love Mase like a cousin should.

And then there’s Captain, the inescapable stranger who has connections in Dallas and Rosemary Beach—and who conveniently shows up wherever Reese happens to be. Hot, mysterious, and plain-speaking, Captain isn’t afraid to tell Reese what he thinks about Mase—and how he feels about her.

As the competition for Mase and Reese’s hearts heats up, Reese’s past begins to unravel, illuminating shocking truths that will forever change the lives of the happy couple—and set the final stories of Rosemary Beach in motion.

  
Another great book to the Rosemary Beach Collection! An auto buy author for me - and I can't get enough!

Mase and Reese have been separated for a month while Reese is in Chicago getting to know her father and family she never knew existed. But it's time to return home to Mase. She decides to surprise him and the person who gets the surprise is Reese. Mase's cousin Aida has been keeping him company while she is away- the only thing is Aida isn't acting like any average cousin.

Mase is clueless to the advances of Aida and assures Reese that she's just a little spoiled...nothing going on because she's the only one for him. But Aida has plans to get Reese out of the picture and she won't stop until she gets Mase all to herself.

Doubt creeps into Reese mind - especially when Blaire's brother Captain seems to be around every corner putting even more doubt into her mind.

Mase says that Reese is the one for him, but will Reese be able to get over her self doubt and see she is a strong, a survivor. Will Mase be enough for Reese and she starts to grow in her confidence and make friends other than Mase.

This book has a ton of twists and turns. As always it was steamy and romantic and a page turner through and through.
