Heart Thief

As promised, I will review Heart Thief today by Taylor Dean. I will also be giving away an ebook of this amazing book next week, so leave a comment. As I posted yesterday, Heart Thief is the first book in the Love Under Wraps series. It’s a forbidden romance with lots of heart-tugging, emotional tug-a-waring, and ultimate happy ending-ing. (I know that’s not grammatically kosher, but I’m going with it).

Taylor Dean is from Texas, and she’s pretty much the nicest person ever. When I was a newbie author with no idea how to do anything in the writing world, I reached out to her–a total stranger, but one who I admired greatly because of her writing style–and asked for some guidance. She went beyond the call of duty to mentor me, helping me gain confidence as a writer (which is hard in this world of haters). Now, I feel I can call her not only a helpful writing mentor, but a true friend. If we lived in the same state, we would be hanging out a TON. You can learn more about Taylor and all her awesome books on her website. Now, let’s get to her newest book:

Shhh…it’s a secret!

 Happy dance!!! I’m so excited to announce that the Love Under Wraps stand-alone series kicks off tomorrow. Yea!!! I’ve been waiting for this for a long time…because I’m one of the authors involved–so, yeah. 🙂

I’ll be giving away free ebooks as each book releases, so check in here, or join the Stuck on Love FB page so you don’t miss out on the fun. Also, if you have a birthday, you should join the page so you can be in our monthly bday drawings as well. Winning is fun.

The Love Under Wraps series contain 3 forbidden romances written by 3 different authors. Taylor is from Texas, I’m from central Utah, and Mylissa is from Belgium. Taylor drove through Utah on her way to see grandkids recently, so she met me at an Olive Garden and we probably drove the waiter crazy because we just talked and talked and talked. For a long time. And we could’ve talked longer. Sadly, Mylissa could only be with us by picture (so we couldn’t talk–although we talk a ton on emails–yea for emails!). Here we all are together (kind of).

I wish you could know these authors as I’ve come to know them. They are not only talented, but they are kind–which is the best praise I feel I can give to someone these days. They truly have become my friends, and I hope you can connect with their amazing spirits as you read their books in the next month or so. Here is the release schedule.

Nov 1: TOMORROW! Heart Thief by Taylor Dean. I will post about this then, and announce a giveaway. So stay tuned.

Dec 1: Mylissa Demeyere’s book, Rules Are Made to be Broken, will release. Isn’t her cover so cute?

Jan 1: My book, A Wrinkle in Forever, will end the stand-alone series on New Year’s.

To end, I’ll just leave this link to the song that Mylissa chose to inspire us all from the beginning. It’ll give you a little peek into what you’re in for with these books.

 

My Brother’s Bride

 

I am so excited to reveal this newest book by Rachael Anderson today. For the last month, I’ve had some scrumptious reading to keep me super satisfied. This book was amazing… and there’s a rafflecopter giveaway at the end of the post. So read on & enter for a chance to win. Here’s the blurb:

Synopsis

Abigail Nash leads a lonely existence. Her mother died giving birth to her, her father’s business dealings took him away more often than not, and her ailing great-aunt, unable to provide much in the way of companionship, was a lack-luster guardian at best. So when her dear friends offered to launch her into London society, it appeared Abby’s life was taking a turn for the better, with suitors and social engagements aplenty. When she marries a proclaimed darling of the ton, it seems she will at last settle into the life of her dreams.

Narcissistic Tendencies

***This giveaway is over: Winner is Emilee!!!

Today I have a fun treat for you. The 3rd book in the Dating by Design series by Jennifer Peel–Narcissistic Tendencies–was so good that I want to give the 1st book away to a lucky commenter. So read all about it, then leave a comment at the end if you’d like a chance to win Book 1–His Personal Relationship Manager.

Each of the books have been so awesome…and witty. This one pairs up Kate, Binary’s Dating Service’s resident psychologist, with Nick Wells, an over-the-top handsome, egotistical movie star. When Nick signs up for Binary’s matchmaking services, Kate questions whether that is wise. The man seems like a total narcissist to her. And she should know since she’s dealt with one up close and personal before. Her boss asks her to be his Relationship Manager, which she is loathe to do. But her job is on the line. So Kate tries to do her best. But when

Scarlet

Today’s reading treat & giveaway comes to you from the French Revolution. “They seek him here, They seek him there, Those Frenchies seek him everywhere. Is he in heaven, Or is he in hell? My own elusive Pimpernel.”  This twist on one of my favorite classics was definitely worth reading.

The Highlander’s Hidden Heart

Here’s another fun read by Julie Coulter Bellon. I’ve read many of her romantic suspense novels and a few contemporary ones lately, but this is her first historical romance between a Scottish lord and an English lady. I thought she did a good job! Read on to learn more, and enter the rafflecopter giveaway at the end of this post for a chance to win.

My Dearest Enemy

Here’s the latest by Jennifer Moore. I love her historical romances, and this one was set in a unique period of time. Canada. Early 1800’s when England fought against the States (again). I love learning about small pieces of history through fictional stories, and this nibble of history I hadn’t run into before, so I wanted to share. Here’s the synopsis (And don’t you LOVE that cover?):

Blurb

Struggling alone on the family farm, Abigail Tidwell knows exactly who to blame for her hardships: the Americans. If it weren’t for their part in the war, her father and brothers would be home rather than fighting abroad. But no amount of antipathy could have prepared her for the shocking sight of a wounded American soldier on her property, a man in dire need of her help. Grudgingly, Abigail tends to the soldier’s injuries and anticipates the satisfaction of turning him over to the authorities once he is healed. But fate has other plans. Captain Emmett Prescott remembers little of the ambush on his men by a group of Shawnee Indians and even less about how he arrived in the unfamiliar barn.
