RELEASE DAY GIVEAWAY BLITZ: Beautiful Illusions by Addison Moore

SYNOPSIS Sometimes the past comes back to haunt you—in the most heartbreakingly beautiful way. Gavin’s story. I fell in love hard and fast as lightning. As quick as she came into my world she was gone. Demi said she has secrets—that she’s done horrible things. Who hasn’t? I’m not going to let the past determine our future. Sometimes love lays forever at your feet and sometimes you need to fight for it. Demi is worth every damn battle we’ll have to go through. I’d burn down the world just to keep her safe. And, after what I’ve discovered, I just might have to. All I need with Demi is one more night to convince her we’re worth it. And that one night is going to cost me everything. I’m reading this one now and I’m loving how swoon-worthy Gavin is! *sigh* Enter here for the GIVEAWAY! a Rafflecopter giveaway Add… Read more »

$25 GIVEAWAY and EXCERPT: Scratch by Rhonda Helms

$25 GIVEAWAY and EXCERPT: Scratch by Rhonda Helms

EXCERPT “When I was a kid I would stay in the pool for hours until I wrinkled,” Daniel said. Somehow while we treaded water he’d moved closer to me, and I could feel the moving water beneath the surface pulsing against my own legs. “In fact, in elementary school I wanted to be an Olympic diver. I had no fear.” “I can just imagine.” A tiny Daniel, diving into the pool, his scrawny body plunging the surface as he practiced relentlessly. “What made you change your mind?” “I look terrible in Speedos.” His grin widened and he gave a cheeky laugh. I laughed in response. “I used to pretend I was a mermaid. I’d sit on the bottom of the pool and press my legs together and make believe they were a tail.” How many hours my sister and I had lived in our neighborhood’s pool. She’d refused to go… Read more »

FRIDAY NIGHT FREEBIE – TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF NEW ADULT ADDICTION!

FRIDAY NIGHT FREEBIE – TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF NEW ADULT ADDICTION!

So I just did my two year indie author anniversary post on Facebook as well. I started this blog right about the same time as I published my first book. And I guess it’s possible that the two together created some sort of synergy, but I don’t think so. I think people are not all that interested in me personally here on the blog. They like the giveaways mostly. Those posts get the most interaction. And of course, the Friday Night Freebie. That meme has been going on for over a year now and holy shit! It’s just amazing how big it’s gotten. Getting signed books for the blog when I go to signings is fun. I’ve made a lot of changes this year. First of all, I rarely do reviews anymore. I have read sooooo much romance in the past three years as “research” and as a blogger, that… Read more »

$10 GIVEAWAY and INTERVIEW: Wishful Thinking by Elle Jefferson

$10 GIVEAWAY and INTERVIEW: Wishful Thinking by Elle Jefferson

  AUTHOR INTERVIEW Did you know that my life as a writer started when I was pregnant with my second child? I had just finished my fifth or sixth read through of Harry Potter and was left going “now what?” And thus I started writing. In the beginning I started reading all the books I could find on writing … on editing … on plots … on characters … on grammar. I took classes, mostly online, and then I plunged head-first into the world of writing. It was in the seas of writing while trying to tread water but mostly drowning that I learned of a forum. It was a magical forum where other wannabe writers talked, shared, laughed and mostly gave each other encouragement (I also happened to meet Colleen Hoover there long before Slammed became a NY Times bestseller). It was through this forum that I met some… Read more »
