The Authors
Rebel Adams is writer and lover of good prose, better cigars, well-aged whiskey and fine women– and not always in that order.

Scarlett Dawn is the author of the Forever Evermore new adult fantasy series, which include King Hall and King Cave. She lives in the Midwest, where she loves to ‘people watch’ and daydream. She adores her music loud and her fries covered in melted cheese.

Bev Elle is the author of sweet and spicy, contemporary romance. She’s a lover of books–those already written, and those she harbors in her very active imagination. Writing is a passion she’s had for many years, but was unable to act upon. Until now. Bev Elle is the mother of three human children and two canines. She is also the lover of one husband. When Bev isn’t writing in her spare time after work, she is thinking of doing so.

Nicole Flockton is an Australian living in Texas. Nicole writes sexy contemporary romances which seduce you one kiss at a time. She enjoys taking two characters and creating unique situations for them. When she’s not busy writing, she’s attempting to keep up with two active children and a busy husband.

Lara Henley is originally from Oklahoma, but has lived in several places. She began writing in 2009 when she had a dream about a little girl traveling with her grandmother. That is how Jessie Discovers Christmas was born. She then ventured into YA and adult romance. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Fashion Marketing and a Masters in Administrative Leadership. She loves all things creative and aspires to have a fulltime writing career.

Missy Johnson in a small town in Central Victoria, Australia, with her husband and her confused pets (a dog who think she’s a cat, a cat who thinks he’s a dog…you get the picture). When she’s not writing, she can usually be found looking for something to read.

Angel Lawson lives with her family in Atlanta and has a lifelong obsession with creating fiction from reality, either with paint or words. On a typical day you can find her writing, reading, plotting her escape from the zombie apocalypse and trying to get the glitter out from under her nails. She is the author of five books, including the Wraith Series, Serial Summer, FanGirl, and Vigilant. She is the co-author of the New Adult Paranormal book, Odin’s Murder with Kira Gold.

t.h. snyder is a 34 y/o single mom of two amazing kids. She lives in Central PA where she works full time for a local business/technical school.

Since then she’s read over 300 romance and paranormal books. In June of 2013, she decided to try her go at writing. She had a vision and went with it….hence Touch Me. To date she’s published 6 books and now 2 anthologies…The Touch Series (NA Romance), Pierced Love (YA Romance), Cursed Love, Cursed #1 (Erotic Romance), My Dirty Little Valentine, and the Obsidian Collection.

Emily Walker loves creating worlds and stumbling around in them. She is constantly losing her chap-stick, and has an obsession with the color pink.

EXCERPT

She started out watching the movie on the opposite end of the couch, but pretty soon she found herself flush against him, needing to feel human contact. They shared her blanket, but it wasn’t a sexual thing. It was comforting to feel his warmth pressed against her body. To her delight, he jumped when she did, but when she looked at his face to see if he looked scared, he showed very little emotion. Only his eyes held the fear that she knew her entire face was projecting. At some point, one of his arms crawled around her shoulders and he pulled her close to him. At another point, she reached for his other hand, holding it to her chest and squeezing it when she closed her eyes against the soggy girl in the movie. His warmth and comfort was something she had never experienced, though had often wished for. She tried not to dwell on that thought too much. In Renae’s experience, dwelling on the positive was inevitably a mistake. It always set her up for a let-down. After it was over, Jason let out a pent up breath. “I forgot how freaky that damn movie was.” “Not me, I remembered. I won’t be sleeping tonight.” She laughed nervously and unfolded herself from the ball she’d curled up into on the couch, standing and stretching. Jason stood too. “I guess I should go. As much as I would like to stay… I don’t think you want a repeat performance.” He sounded hurt, and she wanted to reassure him. He’d been so agreeable all night, and they’d gotten along so well. Renae touched his arm. “It’s not that I don’t want that, Jason, I do. As long as we’re talking about that amazing night we shared.” She watched as he nodded. “But I was really drunk that night, and I want a real relationship with you. Not like a marriage or anything, but I don’t want something based on great sex. Does that make sense?” He nodded soberly, waited a beat, then his face cracked into that grin that made Renae willing to do anything. “Great, huh?” She laughed. “Stud-muffin caliber sex.” He stilled, a perplexed expression on his face. “I don’t know what that means.” She answered with a shrug, secretly amused by his confusion. “But sex in the future is still on the table, right?” Renae nodded. “Yes, I think so.” It was something she’d considered, repeatedly. Especially at night when she was supposed to be sleeping. “Good.” He lowered his head to hers and kissed her. It was such a sweet and tender kiss, considering they’d just been talking about how great the sex between them was, that Renae was caught off guard. She’d been preparing for a conquering kiss of triumph, since she’d just agreed they might have sex someday. But this kiss was a consuming kiss, his warm lips softly nibbled on her lips and when she opened, he slowly swept his tongue inside, softly overwhelming her senses, until yet again she was a trembling mass of nerves. He seemed to sense it, and his hand came to her lower back where he supported her. He didn’t pull her closer, or press himself against her, he just held her, kissing her softly. When his other hand reached for her face, she couldn’t stop herself from melting into him. Her own hands tugged on his hair, adjusting the position of his face so she could deepen the kiss. As much as she loved the tender kiss, Renae wanted more. She whimpered into his mouth as she pulled his hair, and something seemed to snap inside Jason. He hauled her against his body and a primal sound came from the back of his throat. He trailed kisses across her cheek and down her neck, whispering about her smell and the things she did to him. “No control around you… so fucking perfect… want more.” She pulled his head back up to her face to keep kissing him and wrapped one arm around his neck while her other hand snaked down his chest. She felt like a volcano had erupted inside her and her veins were filling with molten lava. The only thing to quench it was Jason.

Tumbleweed Cover
Title: Tumbleweed
Author: Julia Bramer
Release Date: April 16, 2014
Genre: Erotic Romance
Synopsis
“Two men were infinitely better than one, an intoxicating combination if I could find it, and my greedy self-indulgence was boundless, my sexuality unleashed those many years ago with him. His shadow haunted me and shaped my obsession, the depth of my depravity deep and forged in the cafes and nightclubs and back alleys in a dozen countries with dozens of men. Once I’d started down that road, I couldn’t stop and couldn’t go back, a dark and insatiable impulse propelling me forward and driving me into the arms of strangers like the Mohammeds and into the sweltering barren desert.” 〰 Haley 〰 Unable to cope with the loss of her first love, a charming and seductive Spanish soccer player, beautiful, headstrong Haley Hanson abandons love entirely. She seeks solace in the arms of strangers and fame, a tumbleweed rolling where the gusts of wind carry her, and she lands between a garbage bin of rotting food and a brick wall. Stuck in limbo and near death. Will love destroy her or conquer all?

Excerpt
I was awestruck by the mega yacht and the lifestyle. Celine gave me the grand tour, proudly pointing out its lavish features, and she started at the top deck, which included the master suite, four VIP suites, a private dining room, lounge and large verandah. I was given the VIP suite situated next to the master bedroom at the rear of the boat, and May was waiting for me there, my camera case in hand. I removed the camera and immediately starting snapping pictures. The suite was double the size of the hotel room in Paris, and the entire exterior wall, including the one in the luxurious bathroom, had large windows with a spectacular sea view, giving it a light and airy feel and making it seem even larger. The décor was a stunning display of contemporary art deco design with abstract geometrical shapes and bold colors, and it featured the latest technology–flat screen TV’s, a toilet seat warmer and electronic window shades, and the dressing room was equipped with light settings that matched the illumination in the public areas so a woman could apply makeup in the perfect light. The deck below it featured the helm, heliport, a discothèque and bar, large salon, dining room, state-of-the-art kitchen, gazebo lounge and finally the pool, where I was shocked to see another guest sprawled out on a comfy deck chair, and my jaw dropped again. The guest was a magnificent specimen of manhood, his well-built body glistening with oil and his bronze torso teeming with tattoos and toned muscles that rippled into a perfect “V”, and a gasp stuck in my throat at the sight of his generous cock bulging provocatively inside a snug speedo. I glanced at Celine, who was grinning conspiratorially, and my pussy twitched, wanton desire surging through me. “That’s Kostas, your birthday present. You said you like guys,” she smirked. Then he noticed us, gracefully sprang to his feet and strutted to me, smiling a dazzling, friendly smile. “Kostas, this is Haley,” she introduced. His eyes were a striking crystal blue that seemed bluer against his tanned skin, his black hair was thick and curly and cut short, and he was a good six inches taller than me. “You are as lovely as Celine said you would be,” he murmured silkily as he kissed me on both cheeks. There was a trace of an accent, and because of his name, I assumed he was Greek, and my stomach constricted. Kostas, my birthday present.

My Review on Goodreads

Tumbleweed
Julia Bramer
I was given this book as an ARC for an honest review.
WOW… What do I say?  This book, at some points, is not for the faint of heart.  The prologue was a powerful statement as to where this book was going to lead the reader.  I loved the flow of writing by Ms. Bramer and how the book captured the reader right off the bat.  This was my first read from her, but won’t be my last.
Aspiring photographer Haley Hanson, finds the love of her life in a compromising position.  Leaving her heart to the man that broke it, she sets out to make a name for herself in the photography world by traveling all over the country.
Travelling to Cairo, to photograph the revolution, she is greeted by her personal tour guide and her driver, two sexy cousins who run a tour business.  When they awaken the sexual side she’s had suppressed because of her ex, she pursues them and ultimately wins both of their affections in a hot and steamy ménage.  They help her with her career by placing her right in the middle of the crisis, and help her live some of her fantasies about these Egyptian men.
While they enjoy each other’s flesh in a sexual m/f/m relationship, they fail to notice how dangerously close the surrounding environment has come.  Ultimately found out by Mohammed’s father, Haley receives a brutal punishment.
This story is gripping, and had me emotionally drained pulling for Haley to be strong and for someone to help her.   It’s a powerful story with the right combination of sexual heat, and suspense.  

I gave this 4 stars.
