June 12, 2014 Cover Reveal for Let Love Live by Melissa Collins


RELEASING JULY 14, 2014

Synopsis

Who would you become if you lost the only person who ever mattered?

For twenty-six year old Dylan Hopkins, the answer is easy. He’s become no one. Memories of the happier times are all he has left as he finds himself meandering numbly through his now dull life. Though he cares about his work and family dearly, he’s yet to let himself find love again. Afraid of letting go of what he once had, Dylan chooses to keep his heart buried, where it belongs, having died a long time ago. 

Conner Michelson is about to change everything Dylan knows. He’s every bit the bad boy persona - tatted up, ex-MMA fighter, but after an injury leaves him unable to fight, he has to rethink his goals. Having just opened his own gym, Conner can cross his first major life accomplishment off his very short list. Next up: find a man he can settle down with and build a family. Seems simple enough - a dream most people have, but when he meets Dylan, his carefree, easy-going life is thrown into a tailspin. 

Determined to keep Dylan in his life, Conner vows to resurrect Dylan's long ago buried heart and let love live once more.

MeetTheAuthor





   

Melissa Collins has always been a book worm. Studying Literature in college ensured that her nose was always stuck in a book. She followed her passion for reading to the most logical career choice: English teacher. Her hope was to share her passion for reading and the escapism of books to her students. Having spent more than a decade in front of a classroom, she can easily say that it’s been a dream. 

Her passion for writing didn’t start until more recently. When she was home on maternity leave in early 2012, she read her first romance novel and her head filled with the passion, angst and laughter of the characters who she read about it. It wasn’t long before characters of her own took shape in her mind. Their lives took over Melissa’s brain and The Love Series was born.

Review of Blissful Tragedy by Amy L Gale



I was given this book as an ARC for an honest review.

Alexis (Lexie) Waters is a fresh out Lakeview University, waiting to start her dream job with an advertising company. She has the summer free to travel and do as she pleases. After finding her ex-boyfriend having sex with someone else, Lexie is not interested in men. However, that changes when she, her sister and college roomie go to a Devil’s Garden concert with backstage passes. This is where she gets to meet Devil’s Garden lead man and extra hottie Van Sinclair. They talk and find that there is chemistry between them. 

They talk and text and finally give in to hot steamy sex. Van really tries to pursue Lexie, he even suggests that she come on tour with him, to spend the summer. She hesitates but eventually gives in to her feelings, knowing that it has to end when she starts her job in August. 

This book is not without angst… Jesse comes back in the picture “to see you and talk some sense into you. I had no idea you turned into some groupie whore?” This earns him a severe beat down by Van. Van is attacked by a groupie that follows him in to the bus and Lexie finds him, Lexie’s family (mother and father) think he’s the epitome of trash, and he ditches the band to come to the wedding of Lexie’s sister.
There is a back story with Lexie and her new job/boss, you will have to read the book to experience that, because it would spoil the plot if I told that part of the story. 

Overall I really enjoyed this book. It’s not like the typical rock and roll books I have read. The sex scenes were hot and steamy, perfectly timed. The main character is Lexie and her future life. It takes you through the emotions of love, hurt and challenge.

I give this book 4 stars.

Release Blitz for Monica James June 11, 2014


The I Surrender Trilogy has been re-edited, re-vamped, and re-covered, and will be released July 1st, 2014!!! Are you ready for more Jasper White?

I Surrender (Book 1 in the I Surrender Trilogy)

Singapore has stolen a piece of Ava Thompson.


It took one life shattering moment for her to realize her ex-boyfriend is not the man she believed him to be. Returning home to Los Angeles was never going to be easy for Ava, as her heart has been shattered to smithereens and she’s convinced it’ll never heal. Or, so she thought.



Enter Jasper White.



Unbeknown to Ava, he will change her life forever.



The attraction is instantaneous, which troubles Ava, who has sworn off men indefinitely. Yet, she is finding resisting Jasper—with his tousled bedroom hair and piercing cerulean eyes—harder than she ever imagined. That’s because Jasper knows what he wants … and he wants her.


Can Ava surrender to her feelings for the one man who compels her to love again? What happens if love isn’t enough? 




Surrender to Me (Book 2 in the I Surrender Trilogy)
Ava Thompson left her one true love, Jasper White, to unearth her destiny. It was the only way for Ava to grow into the woman she’s always wanted to become. 
Sadly, that destiny has led her back to the place that broke her … Singapore.
And more importantly, it has led her back to the man who broke her … Harper.
Ava is no longer the scared, lost girl she once was. She is stronger and determined to accomplish her dreams in order to find happiness. Hopefully, at the end of it all, she will return into the loving arms of Jasper White. 
Six months later, Ava travels back to Los Angeles for an event that embraces the true meaning of love. Sadly for Ava, her meaning of true love has been lost. 
Los Angeles is not how Ava left it. Things have changed. People have changed. She has changed. However, what has remained untouched is her passionate love for Jasper White. 
But does Jasper feel the same? 



Surrendered (Book 3 in the I Surrender Trilogy)

When Ava Thompson met the cerulean eyed rock god, Jasper White, her whole world was tipped on its axis, and nothing has been the same ever since.


Thankfully, life for Ava has settled, and that includes being in a healthy, stable relationship with Jasper at long last. 

Their turbulent love has withstood many obstacles, but when not one, but two bombshells are dropped at Ava's doorstep, will she and Jasper be able to survive? Will the cunning ex and bothersome mother rock the stable foundation they have built together?

Will Ava get her happy ending? And will that happy ending be with the man everyone desires?
