 ~ Review ~
4.5 Star Review by Guest Reviewer Cybill
Denver is a girl who seems to have it all. Fame on the rodeo circuit, college, great friends, and great looks. But under it all is a deep self-hatred and a doubt that love really exists. Her past has made here the way she is. 

Greer

Greer has been Denver's best friend since the womb. He want to make Denver his, even willing to accept whatever part of her she will give him. He will do whatever it take to keep her. Will he do too much? Or will he show her love can and does exist?

Ransom

Hot bull riding God! He's a womanizer whose a little twisted but a whole lot of hotness. He wants Denver, there's a spark he can't deny. Will rumors and accusations tarnish their chemistry? Will her past haunt her forever?

This is an amazing story of self realization. I am left wondering where this is going to go. It broke my heart with some of the events, your not sure who to root for. Who will Denver chose? What type of person is Ransom, really? There are supporting friends that add some humor with the angst. Austin and Maggie add wonderfully to the story. I will sit with bated breath and patiently wait for the next installment. A definite 4.5 stars for me.

Cover Reveal: Tied With Me by Kristen Proby

Tied With Me -FrontCover

This cover was created by Sarah Hansen from Okay Creations.

~ Synopsis ~

A man whose lifestyle is so different from her own… Nic Dalton’s cupcake bakery is thriving. She serves both rock stars and locals alike, content with her growing business. But one adventurous night out with her best friend, Bailey, turns her life upside down. She meets a handsome stranger who makes her skin sizzle and her heart race. Their one night together is explosive and unexpected, but when he has to suddenly leave without taking her phone number, Nic resigns herself to never seeing him again. …What will it take to trust and submit to his every desire? Matt Montgomery is one of Seattle’s finest. He works hard, loves and protects his family fiercely, and is loyal almost to a fault. And he has a penchant for bondage. Matt enjoys the way a woman looks wrapped up in his ropes, and makes no apologies for his preferences. When he meets Nic at a fetish festival, the small, beautiful woman catches his eye, drawing him to her. His one night with her was everything he’s ever looked for in a partner, but is cut short because of a family emergency. Even before he sees her again weeks later, he knows he’ll never get her out of his system. And he’ll do whatever it takes to make her his. “Give in to this, Nic. Let me prove to you that I will be one of the best decisions you ever make.” –Matt Montgomery   
  ~ Excerpt ~

 I grin and offer her a fresh bottle of water, which she accepts, unscrews the cap and takes a sip. 
 Fuck, she has beautiful lips. Lips that look amazing wrapped around the head of my cock. 
“It’s not a crime to belong to a gym,” I reply. 
“My gym?”
“Do you own it?” I ask with a grin. 
 She laughs and shakes her head. “No.” “It’s not far from my apartment, and it’s convenient to work, too, so here I am.” She nods and glances down, not sure what to say next. 
“The cake was delicious today,” I comment casually, giving her the opportunity to talk about her work.
 “Oh, good!” She grins and joins me as I walk toward the smoothie bar, pull out a chair for her to drop into at one of the tiny two-person tables and sit opposite her. “I’m glad you enjoyed it.”
 “You do good work. Leo and Sam are always talking about your cupcakes.” 
 “Leo and Sam keep me in business, I swear.” She laughs, sending electricity down my spine. “They’re very good customers.” I nod, watching her.
 “I like your shorter hair,” I murmur and reach out to brush the ends with my finger, enjoying the softness. “Most men like long hair,” she replies softly.
 “I like long hair, too. You look beautiful in both.” 
 She frowns and glances away from me.
 “Why did you cut your hair, Nic?” 
 She shrugs and won’t meet my gaze. “It was time for a change.”
 “Try again,” I reply.
 She turns her eyes to mine and squares her shoulders, firms her chin. “It was time for a change.” 
 That’s a lie. 
 I cross my arms over my naked chest and drag my finger over my lip, watching her squirm. 
 She isn’t a good liar. 
 Good.
 “Okay.” 
 She sighs, relieved, before I continue.
 “For now.” 
 She scowls at me, making me laugh. “Friends don’t lie to each other, little one. The sooner you remember that, the better.”
“You’ve known me for three minutes, Matt. Don’t assume you know all there is to know about me.” 
“You know what they say about assuming,” I murmur with a grin. 
“Well, you are an ass,” she replies and then giggles.
I lean in and rest my mouth next to her ear. “This ass would love to smack your pretty little ass until it glows,” I whisper so only she can hear.

Cover Reveal and Giveaway: The Prince of Punk Rock by Jenna Galicki


Title: The Prince of Punk Rock (Radical Rock Stars #1)
Author: Jenna Galicki
Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance
Expected Release Date: March 1, 2014
Cover Designer: Taria Reed Cover Artist 

~ Synopsis ~
I love her, but I also love him.
She's everything to me.
He sets my world on fire.
It's our dirty little secret, and it’s about to blow our record deal sky high.
I’m Tommy Blade, the Prince of Punk Rock, and this is our story.
Tommy Blade is a man with a secret. It’s a secret he only shares with one person, Jessi Blade – and the men he surrenders to in the bedroom. Her only condition to their tumultuous sex life is that these men are one night stands. But when Angel Garcia enters his life, it’s like a match to gasoline.
Mega-talented punk rock singer Angel Garcia, with his smoldering ebony eyes, tight leather pants and unstoppable stage presence, is a man who is use to getting what he wants. He has his eyes set on Tommy Blade as his new lead guitarist, and as his life partner.
Jessi Blade, sympathetic to her husband's bisexual needs, loves him enough to share him, but she never counted on Angel Garcia to test the threshold of her marriage. He makes her life hell . . . and heaven. He’s her damnation and her salvation. She wants to hate him. She wants to despise him. But, his charm and raw sex appeal are impossible to resist. Without warning, she finds herself falling in love with her husband's gay lover.
At the height of it all, their punk rock band catapults to stardom.
Their lives are marred by secrecy, deception and sacrifice. Feelings of betrayal, backlash from the sensationalistic media and threats of blackmail send them down a hard road filled with tough decisions.
They aren't your ordinary rock stars. They're radical rock stars. And they have a big story to tell.

~ Excerpts ~
Excerpt #1
The faces changed since the last time he was there, but the intention was still the same.  It wasn’t a place to socialize or partake in camaraderie or drop in for a drink on your way home.  It was meeting place for men interested in casual sex.  The backroom served as a shanty for a quick encounter.  You could stop in, get your rocks off and be on your way in half an hour.  It was a smorgasbord of testosterone, a buffet of muscle and beefcake.
Men flocked around him as soon as he walked through the door.  They always did.  A guy once told him that it was the mixture of his rugged jaw and strong upper body, offset by the innocence of his big blue eyes that made him so attractive.  The ladies always said it was his long blond hair and the guitar.

 Excerpt #2
He played for Jessi.  He always did, and it made her feel like a queen.  He sat back on his knees, nodded at her and they shared a smile.   The spotlight was on the two of them as he rattled of the intricate guitar solo, and she felt every pair of eyes gravitate toward her.  Gooseflesh rose on her arms and the pitter-patter of her heart made her feel like a teenager.   She needed to cover her lips with her fingertips in order to suppress the jubilant emotions that bubbled up inside her.  Every time he played for her, it felt like the first time.
