Cover Reveal: All Broke Down by Cora Carmack.


We are so excited to get to share the cover for Cora Carmack's ALL BROKE DOWN today!

But you can pre-order it NOW! Check out what it's about and then fall in love with this gorgeous cover!

 

ABOUT ALL BROKE DOWN:

In this second book in New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Cora Carmack’s New Adult, Texas-set Rusk University series, which began with All Lined Up, a young woman discovers that you can’t only fight for what you believe in . . . sometimes you have to fight for what you love

 

Dylan fights for lost causes. Probably because she used to be one.

 

Environmental issues, civil rights, corrupt corporations, and politicians—you name it, she’s probably been involved in a protest. When her latest cause lands her in jail overnight, she meets Silas Moore. He’s in for a different kind of fighting. And though he’s arrogant and infuriating, she can’t help being fascinated with him. Yet another lost cause.

 

Football and trouble are the only things that have ever come naturally to Silas. And it’s trouble that lands him in a cell next to do-gooder Dylan. He’s met girls like her before—fixers, he calls them, desperate to heal the damage and make him into their ideal boyfriend. But he doesn’t think he’s broken, and he definitely doesn’t need a girlfriend trying to change him. Until, that is, his anger issues and rash decisions threaten the only thing he really cares about, his spot on the Rusk University football team. Dylan might just be the perfect girl to help.

 

Because Silas Moore needs some fixing after all.

Review: Becoming a Jett Girl by Meghan Quinn.


Title: Becoming A Jett Girl

Author: Meghan Quinn

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: July 1st, 2014


 

About Becoming A Jett Girl:

How did I start the Lafayette Club?

Well, I’m in the business of saving tarnished souls. I hand pick girls from the street who have no options left in life and give them an opportunity they can’t possibly refuse.

They come to work in the Lafayette Club which is full of EXQUISITE DEBAUCHERY, where influential men come to conduct business and lap dances are considered a fine art.

The girls are trained, they are morphed, they are educated, they follow the rules of the club and they know to submit to me. They live by my motto, no relationships, no love, just sex.

They are never touched, only by me, they are never completely naked, only with me, and their personas are entirely anonymous. The only person who knows who they truly are, is me, Jett Colby.

If these girls were ever seen on the streets of New Orleans, you would never know they were a Jett Girl.

My thoughts:

5 stars

The only thing that I would change about this book would be to have more. More Lo, more Jett, and definitely more Kace!! In fact, I had to bug the author to find out what's in store for the rest of the Bourbon Series. I'll let you know what I find out, because I'm dying for more. There has GOT to be more!! (***UPDATE*** Check out the screenshot at the end of this review!!)

Jett...I love him, but there were a few times I hated him as much as I had previously loved him. He goes after what he wants, and gets it. No matter what. I'll admit that if this was happening in real life, some of Jett's tactics would have creeped me out. He's hot, but until you get to see his softer side and the reason he is the way he is, the things he'll do to get what he wants can seem a bit extreme. He takes alpha male to a whole new level. At one point I made a note of : "Holy shit!! No freaking way did he just do that!!", but amazingly, it's written well enough that by the next few paragraphs I am right back to loving him again. He is dark, but you get these little glimpses of light in him every so often. THOSE are the awesome moments. The ones you devour the book for.


Goldie/Lo is a hellion. Circumstances have her living a life she never dreamed she would, and Jett saves her from that. While he is trying to tame her, her spunkiness and mouth break down his walls, and causes him to have feelings he never thought he would. She also has the patience and the ability to forgive of a saint. There were more than a few times that if it had been me, I would have walked out and never looked back, but she sees something in him that has her sticking around. I'm dying to see more of what's going to happen to these two...and Kace....I want a book of just Kace. I freaking LOVE him!!

If this first book is any indication at all, this series is going to be amazing. Definitely one to look out for; the type you would drop everything you are doing to sit down and read. The premise is interesting, it has moments of funny (there's a "fishing" scene that has scarred my brain. Anytime I see a fish hook, my brain is going to flashback to that!!), and it's fan yourself, blush while reading kind of hot!! I'm already ready for more!!


(Here's what's coming for the rest of the Bourbon series!! And all I can say is YAYYYYY!!)
 








 

 
 
 
About Meghan Quinn

When I was in high school I occasionally read books but was consumed by other teenage things so I didn’t take the time to appreciate a good book on a cloudy day, wrapped up in a blanket on the couch, besides “The Notebook” I made time to read the heartbreaking novel.

It wasn’t until I received a Kindle for Christmas one year that my world completely flipped upside down. When looking for books, I came across the Contemporary Romance genre and was sold and I haven’t turned back since.

You can either find my head buried in my Kindle, listening to inspiring heart ripping music or typing away on the computer twisting and turning the lives of my characters while driving my readers crazy with anticipation.

​I am currently residing in beautiful Colorado Springs where the sun is always shining and there is a trail waiting to be hiked on every corner. I share a lovely and warm home with the love of my life and my five, four-legged children.

EXCERPT:

 

“You sure you’re not sneaking off to Los Angeles to get me a ring?”

 

He laughed once more. She’d been trying to get it out of him since the night he told her he’d wanted to take her to Vegas for the weekend. Even with her business meeting, she was hunting for clues of a proposal. Only his brother knew he planned to ask her to marry him this weekend. “I’m not going to Los Angeles to get a ring, but even if I were I would never tell you,” he said.

 

“You do realize that gives absolutely nothing away?”

 

He nodded, tapping her forehead lightly, then running his finger down to her nose. “I know,” he said, then nibbled on the end of her nose.

 

“Well, enough about rings. What’s in that box there you’re hiding by your leg?”

 

“You saw it?”

 

“My gift-spotting skills know no bounds.”

 

He handed her the turquoise-wrapped box with a white bow on it. She eyed the bow. “In case you want to tie me up on the plane, looks like we already have something to use.”

 

His dick twitched against the denim of his jeans. She was always on the same wavelength as he was. “I may need to tie up your hands as a reminder to bring your poker face to the meeting today.”

 

She gave him a sharp-eyed stare. “Do not ever doubt my poker face. It is masterful,” she said, as she tugged one end of the ribbon, letting the white satiny bow fall across the shiny wrapping paper. Ripping off the paper, she popped open the top of the box, and there it was. That glow in her eyes. The absolute joy in receiving gifts. She was a delight to give presents to because she never faked her appreciation. Reaching inside the box, she wrapped her fingers around the necklace then gently lifted the long strand of pearls. “Oh my God, they’re stunning. They’re so fucking gorgeous.”

 

She draped the pearls over her hand, the long strands like waterfalls of smooth, rounded beads. She gazed at them like they were precious, a fitting response, since they were. “They’re real,” she said, with wonder in her voice as she looked up at him.

 

He nodded. “I would never give you something fake.”

 

“I’ve never had pearls before. I’ve never thought of myself as a pearl person.”

 

“Then let me show you how I want you to wear them, so you can see how absolutely fucking sexy a pearl person can be,” he said, standing up and making his way to his suitcase. He opened one of the zipper compartments where he’d tucked a dress for her, and brought it over. “Another gift. Put this on.”

 

“Now?”

 

He nodded. “Yes. Model it for me.”

 

“As you wish,” she said, standing up and glancing once at the cockpit. “What about the pilot?”

 

“I told him we’d be making full use of the plane and he said he’d have his eyes on the sky the whole time.”

 

“Then keep your eyes on me,” she said, looping the strand around her neck, then stripping off her skirt, letting it pool at her feet, her gaze locked on him the whole time. He watched her, growing harder with each layer she removed—now her shirt, then her lacy bra. He reclined the spacious leather seat, taking in the show, savoring every second of her undressing.

Blog Tour: Amber reviews The Dare by Rachel Van Dyken.


 
 
Welcome to The Dare Blog Tour!!
 
 
The Dare:


From #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Rachel Van Dyken, comes the third and final book in the New York Time's Bestselling Bet Series...


Boring Beth Lynn has always lived up to her nickname... until she wakes up in a hotel bed next to a sexy as sin state senator she re-connected with at a wedding the previous night.



The biggest problem? She can't seem to remember anything about the night before except for crying into a box of cookies, and she's pretty sure Grandma Nadine slipped something in her drink. And what should have been a one night stand turns into a six day adventure when Grandma whisks them off to Hawaii to save them from the ensuing media firestorm.



Jace isn't looking for commitment -- he believes he made that clear when he left the wedding with Beth. Then again, he can't remember much of anything other than the way her skin felt beneath his hands. Now he's stuck with her at some lame couple's retreat and trying his hardest to fight the attraction only a woman like Beth could invoke.



He doesn't think it can get any worse.



But one spider attack... A donkey ride from hell... And an unfortunate episode with Viagra tea -- and there's one thing Jace knows for sure: He should never have agreed to Grandma Nadine's suggestion in the first place.

Because if this isn't paradise, and it isn't a vacation -- that only leaves one option.



Survival.



But to make it through alive... they might lose their hearts in the process.

Amber's Review:
5 Holy Thor Hilarious stars
 
The Bet was my first Rachel Van Dyken book and to say that I fell in love with her writing and these characters when I read it last year would be a major understatement! Rachel never fails to make me fall in love with her characters because there is never ANYTHING predictable. Plus this series gave us Grandma Nadine, and if you haven’t yet read these let me just tell ya she steals the show!! This installment finds all our favorites from The Bet and The Wager and it sets us on a whirlwind of love, laughter and the pursuit of happy-ever-after.
Beth has always been the quiet, smart and unassuming one in her family. Her nickname in high school was boring Beth, and at this point she is wondering if she should just go ahead and adopt the cat she has saved on the shelter website and begin her path as the crazy cat lady. She works as a chemist, loves her kindle and her sister; but she wishes for someone to love her. After watching her sister get tricked into marrying Jake and watching her friend Kacey marry Travis, Beth is a bit depressed and just wants to drink herself into oblivion and forget everything. Enter Grandma Nadine (and when she gets involved things are always a bit unpredictable). Beth wakes up with a sexy as sin Senator the next morning; and neither really remembers what happened other than nakedness, drunkenness and cookie fits.
What ensues is nothing short of a crazy adventure as they find themselves hiding from the paparazzi and are whisked along with the newlyweds to Hawaii via Grandma. Despite both Jace and Beth’s protests to the contrary they have crazy electric chemistry and despite neither initially saying anything, they remember each other and the unforgettable encounter they had at Beth’s senior prom. It was that night, that dance, that kiss that altered them both. Beth says “that one touch had destroyed my idea of what a kiss should feel like.” For Jace he ponders that “life isn’t like the movies, and Beth isn’t like any other girl I’ve ever met.” So it seems both are affected by the other, but Jace has been burned in the past and can’t see committing to anyone again, even Beth.  However with Grandma’s meddling the pair find that they are more alike than they believe and not just that but that crazy chemistry they had as teens? Oh yeah they got that big time! But can chemistry that sets them both ablaze turn into the happy ever after that Beth craves and that scares Jace to death? Well if Grandma gets her crazy matchmaking way, yes it will though they will have to overcome couples therapy, Viagra tea, killer spiders named Frank and the ever popular dose of Benadryl.
Well I have to say that Rachel wrapped up this trilogy in the most wonderful of ways. A happily ever after that was ever so gratifying! In some ways I loved this installment the most because I identified with Beth a lot, but then I think that I’m not sure I can choose because those Titus boys and their girls were yummy too! Though Jace had the Thor thing happening and that was “Holy Thor” hot!! All and all I laughed, I cried and I cheered! It was a great story of hope, of family and love; and a great reminder that life is short and if you’re not prepared to take a leap of faith you may just miss your chance at happiness.
