Starting over sucks.

 

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring…. until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.

 

And then he opened his mouth.

 

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something…unexpected happens.

 

The hot alien living next door marks me.

 

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades.

 

If I don’t kill him first, that is.

 

ABOUT LUX: Consequences:

 

Now available together for the first time, don't miss Opal and Origin, the third and fourth books in Jennifer L. Armentrout's bestselling Lux series. Also includes bonus content exclusive to the print edition! "A thrilling ride from start to finish," says RT Book Reviews.

 

No one is like Daemon Black.

 

When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around. Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on.

 

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

 

After everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I’m capable. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won’t turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever.

 

Together we’re stronger...and they know it.

Happy Release Day to Don't Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout!!

 

 

We are extremely excited that Jennifer L. Armentrout's DON'T LOOK BACK releases today!! DON’T LOOK BACK is a young adult suspense being published by Disney Hyperion!

 

 

ABOUT DON’T LOOK BACK:

Samantha is a stranger in her own life. Until the night she disappeared with her best friend, Cassie, everyone said Sam had it all—popularity, wealth, and a dream boyfriend.

Sam has resurfaced, but she has no recollection of who she was or what happened to her that night. As she tries to piece together her life from before, she realizes it's one she no longer wants any part of. The old Sam took "mean girl" to a whole new level, and it's clear she and Cassie were more like best enemies. Sam is pretty sure that losing her memories is like winning the lottery. She's getting a second chance at being a better daughter, sister, and friend, and she's falling hard for Carson Ortiz, a boy who has always looked out for her—even if the old Sam treated him like trash.

But Cassie is still missing, and the facts about what happened to her that night isn't just buried deep inside of Sam's memory—someone else knows, someone who wants to make sure Sam stays quiet. All Sam wants is the truth, and if she can unlock her clouded memories of that fateful night, she can finally move on. But what if not remembering is the only thing keeping Sam alive?

“This engrossing thriller packs a heady atmospheric punch with plenty of theatrical scares,” Kirkus Reviews

“Armentrout has written another winner. From the first page to the last, she builds both terror and confusion to the point where readers will be hooked and on the edge of their seat. This standalone contains all of Armentrout’s usual trademarks– a strong and determined heroine, witty comments and hot guys–but she adds in an extra layer by ratcheting up the suspense to the highest degree and follows it up with an ending no one will see coming.” RT BOOK REVIEWS 4 1/2 Stars TOP PICK

 

 

 

 

EXCERPT:

I didn’t recognize the name on the street sign. Nothing about the rural road looked familiar or

friendly. Tall, imposing trees and overgrown weeds choked the front of the dilapidated home.

Windows were boarded up. There was a gaping hole where the front door had been. I shivered,

wanting to be far away from here…wherever here was.

Walking felt harder than it should be, and I stumbled off the chilly asphalt, wincing as

sharp gravel dug into my feet.

My bare feet?

I stopped and looked down. Chipped pink nail polish peeked through the dirt…and blood.

Mud caked the legs of my pants, leaving the hems stiff. It made sense, seeing as how I wasn’t

wearing any shoes, but the blood…I didn’t understand why there was blood staining the knees of

my jeans.

My vision clouded and dulled, as if a gray film had been dropped over my eyes. As I

stared at the weathered asphalt under my feet, large and smooth rocks replaced the tiny stones.

Something dark and oily seeped over the rocks, slipping through the cracks.

Sucking in a sharp gasp, I blinked and the image was gone.

Hands trembling, I raised them. They were also covered with dirt and scratches. My nails

were broken, bloodied. A silver ring wrapped, encased in soil, around my thumb. Air froze in my

chest as my gaze crawled over my arms. The sleeves of my sweater were torn, revealing pale

flesh covered in bruises and gashes. My legs started to shake as I swayed forward. I tried to

remember how this had happened, but my head was empty—a black void where nothing existed.

A car drove by, coasting to a stop a few feet in front of me. Somewhere in the trenches of

my subconscious, I recognized the flashing red and blue lights as a source of safety. Elegantly

scrawled along the black-and-gray side of the cruiser were the words ADAMS COUNTY SHERIFF’S

DEPARTMENT.

Adams County? A flash of familiarity came and went.

The driver’s door opened, and a deputy stepped out. He said something into the radio on

his shoulder before he looked at me.

“Miss?” He started around the cruiser, taking tentative steps. He looked young for a

deputy. Barely out of high school and able to carry a gun seemed wrong somehow. Was I in high

school? I didn’t know. “We’ve received some calls into dispatch concerning you,” he said

gently. “Are you okay?”

I tried to respond, but only a hoarse squeak came out. Clearing my throat, I winced as the

motion scratched and pulled. “I…I don’t know.”

“Okay.” The deputy held up his hands as he approached me, as if I were a skittish deer

about to bolt. “My name is Deputy Rhode. I’m here to help you. Do you know what you’re doing

out here?”

“No.” Knots formed in my belly. I didn’t even know where here was.

His smile strained. “What’s your name?”

My name? Everyone knew their name, but as I stared at the deputy, I couldn’t answer his

question. The knots started twisting more. “I don’t…I don’t know what my name is.”

He blinked, and the smile was completely gone. “You don’t remember anything?”

I tried again, concentrating on the empty space between my ears. That was how it felt.

And I knew that wasn’t good. My eyes started to tear up.

“Miss, it’s okay. We’ll get you taken care of.” He reached out, lightly taking hold of my

arm. “We’ll get this sorted.”

Deputy Rhode led me around the back of his cruiser. I didn’t want to sit behind the

Plexiglas, because I knew that wasn’t good. Only bad people sat behind the glass in police

cruisers. I wanted to object, but before I could say anything, he settled me into the seat and

wrapped a coarse blanket around my shoulders.

Before he locked me in the bad part of the car, he knelt and smiled reassuringly.

“Everything’s going to be okay.”

But I knew he was lying, trying to make me feel better. It didn’t work. How could

everything be okay when I didn’t know my own name?

STONE COLD TOUCH Synopsis:

Every touch has its price

Layla Shaw is trying to pick up the pieces of her shattered life—no easy task for a seventeen-year-old who’s pretty sure things can’t get worse. Her impossibly gorgeous best friend, Zayne, is forever off-limits thanks to the mysterious powers of her soul-stealing kiss. The Warden clan that has always protected her is suddenly keeping dangerous secrets. And she can barely think about Roth, the wickedly hot demon prince who understood her in ways no one else could.

But sometimes rock bottom is only the beginning. Because suddenly Layla’s powers begin to evolve, and she’s offered a tantalizing taste of what has always been forbidden.  Then, when she least expects it, Roth returns, bringing news that could change her world forever. She’s finally getting what she always wanted, but with hell literally breaking loose and the body count adding up, the price may be higher than Layla is willing to pay…

"Constantly entertaining...the narrative sizzles with as much tension as romance."

WHITE HOT KISS! 

 

ABOUT WHITE HOT KISS:

One kiss could be the last.
 

Seventeen-year-old Layla just wants to be normal. But with a kiss that kills anything with a soul, she's anything but normal. Half demon, half gargoyle, Layla has abilities no one else possesses.

Raised among the Wardens—a race of gargoyles tasked with hunting demons and keeping humanity safe—Layla tries to fit in, but that means hiding her own dark side from those she loves the most. Especially Zayne, the swoon-worthy, incredibly gorgeous and completely off-limits Warden she's crushed on since forever.

Then she meets Roth—a tattooed, sinfully hot demon who claims to know all her secrets. Layla knows she should stay away, but she's not sure she wants to—especially when that whole no-kissing thing isn't an issue, considering Roth has no soul.

But when Layla discovers she's the reason for the violent demon uprising, trusting Roth could not only ruin her chances with Zayne…it could brand her a traitor to her family. Worse yet, it could become a one-way ticket to the end of the world.

EXCERPT:

“I don’t think of Zayne that way!” 

She laughed. “What man-parts-loving female in this world doesn’t think of Zayne that

way? I can barely keep myself breathing when I see him. All the guys in school have squishy

waists. I can tell Zayne doesn’t. He’s the awesome sauce with extra sauce.”

That he was and he so didn’t have a squishy waist, but I tuned Stacey out at that point. I

really did need to cram for this test and I also didn’t want my fantasies involving Zayne to

occupy my mind right now. Especially after I’d woken up this morning, carefully tucked under

the covers. The bed had smelled like him: sandalwood and crisp linen. 

“Oh, sweet baby Jesus in a manger,” Stacey murmured.

I clenched my jaw, cupping my hands over my ears.

She jabbed me in the side with her elbow. At this rate I’d be covered in bruises before

lunchtime. “Our bio class just got a billion times more interesting. And hotter, lots and lots

hotter. Holy mother, I want to have his babies. Not now of course, but definitely later. But I’d

like to start practicing soon.”

The cell wall is a thick and rigid layer covering the plasma something, something plant

cells… 

Stacey stiffened all of a sudden. “Oh my God, he’s coming—”

              Composed of fat and sugar—

Something slender and shiny fell from who knew where, landing in the middle of Sam’s

notes. Blinking tightly, it took me a couple of seconds to recognize the faded and half peeled

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sticker covering the back of the silver cell phone.

My heart slammed against my ribs. Gripping the edges of the notebook, I slowly lifted

my gaze. Unnaturally beautiful golden eyes met mine.  

“You forgot this last night.”

Happy Release Day to Be with Me by J. Lynn!! Excerpt and Giveaway.

We are extremely excited to say that J. Lynn's BE WITH ME has been released!!! BE WITH ME is a New Adult contemporary romance being published by Avon (William Morrow), an imprint of HarperCollins, and is a part of Jennifer L. Armentrout’s With You Saga. This book is smoking hot and one you need to go get today!

 

 

BE WITH ME Synopsis:

 

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Wait for You

 

Do Teresa and Jase have a real shot at getting together or will life get in the way?

 

Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year—she's in love with her big brother's best friend, but he hasn't spoken to her since they shared a truly amazing, mind-blowing, life-changing kiss. Then she got out of a terrible relationship. Now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good. It's time for plan B: college. And maybe she'll have a chance to convince Jase that what they have together is real.

 

Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he's not telling anyone—especially not his best friend's incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must take priority. He certainly doesn't have time for a relationship. But it doesn't help that all he can think about is kissing the one girl who could ruin everything for him.

 

As they're thrown together more and more, Jase and Teresa can't keep denying their feelings for each other. But a familiar danger looms and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must decide what they're willing to risk to be together and what they're willing to lose if they're not. . . .

 

EXCERPT:

 

“You got a visitor, Tess.” He rested his chin atop my head, which caused my pulse to try

 

to outrun my heart. “Two of them to be exact.”

 

“Okay.”

 

There was a pause. “Are your eyes closed?”

 

“No.”

 

His chin slid off my head and then his chest rumbled as he laughed. “Your eyes are

 

closed.” He laughed again. “Open them up.”

 

Cursing under my breath, I pried one eye open and then jerked against him. His arm

 

tightened. “Oh wow …”

 

The black-and-white horse was the closest, standing mere feet away from me. The brown

 

one wasn’t too far, shaking its head and making soft snorts. My eyes were wide as they bounced

 

between the two creatures. “They’re not carnivorous, right? Because at their size, they could eat

 

me.”

 

Jase laughed deeply as his hand shifted up, resting in the center of my stomach, just

 

below my breasts. “Horses do not eat people, you little idiot.”

 

I started, eyes narrowing. “There’s always a first.”

 

The lips pulled back on the black-and-white horse as if it was smirking at me.

 

“This one right here? Mr. Friendly? Jack calls him Bubba One,” he said in a quiet,

 

calming voice. But air hitched in my throat when his thumb moved in a slow circle over the thin

 

material of my tank top, hitting against the wire in my bra. “And the brown one is Bubba Two.”

 

Mouth dry, I wetted my lips. “That’s good for remembering names.”

 

He chuckled as his pinkie and forefinger started to move up and down, reaching my belly

 

button and then sliding back up. It was almost as if he was unaware of what he was doing, or the

 

electrifying response the tiny motions were dragging out of me. “I think so too, but his real name

 

is Lightning.”

 

Said horse shook his head, tossing the shaggy mane.

 

“Lightning seems to be a more suitable name,” I admitted, relaxing as the seconds

 

passed. Maybe that was his intention. Distract me with the soft, almost innocent touches. It was

 

working. “What about Bubba Two?

 

“Ah, the one who is staring at the pail like it’s the holy mecca of grain?” His cheek

 

grazed mine as I laughed. “That’s Thunder. And we’re going to feed them. Together.”

 

The friction his fingers created with my shirt sent tiny shivers up and down my back.

 

“With our hands?”

 

His answering laugh tipped the corners of my lips up. “Yes. With our hands.”

 

“After checking out the choppers on them, I’m not so sure about that.”

 

“You’ll be okay.” He slid his hand off my stomach and wrapped it around my wrist.

 

Slowly, he lifted my hand out in front of me. “Hold still.”

 

My heart lurched. “Jase—”

 

Lightning trotted forward and pressed his wet nose against my hand. I cringed, waiting

 

for him to eat my poor fingers. The horse didn’t. Nope. It nudged my hand as it whinnied softly.

 

He guided my hand up over Lightning’s jaw, all the way to the pointy, twitchy ears.

 

“See?” he murmured. “That’s not too bad, is it?”

 

I shook my head as my fingers curled along the soft coat. Lightning seemed to anticipate

 

the direction of the petting, pressing his long head against my hand as my fingers tangled in his

 

mane. It wasn’t bad at all.

 

Jase shifted behind me, and in an instant all thoughts of the horses evaporated. His hips

 

lined up against my backside, and I bit down on my lower lip as I focused on the white splotch

 

covering Lightning’s muzzle.

 

I could feel him—feel Jase. And there was absolutely no doubt in my mind that he was

 

affected by how close we were standing. That knowledge and the hard length of him left me

 

dizzy, just like it had done that Saturday night. An all too warm flush spread down my neck. In

 

the back of my head, I was rationalizing his physical reaction. He was a guy. Our bodies were pressed

 

together. If a wind blew on a guy’s private area, they got hard. So I should just ignore it,

 

but my body was so not on board with my head. My body was operating on a different playing

 

field. An ache centered low in my stomach. A sharp and sweet yearning raced through my veins.

 

“Not so scary, right?” His voice was deeper, richer. “They’re like dogs. Well, like a dog

 

that can carry around two hundred pounds, if not more.” Hand sliding off mine, he stepped back,

 

and the sudden emptiness of his body was like a cold shock. “Trust me.”

 

Then he smacked my ass.
