Title: Cavalier
Series: Crimson Elite #1
Author: T.L. Smith
Genre: Romance (standalone)
Release Date: December 27, 2018
“⭐ 5 "Explosive" Stars ⭐Cavalier sounded amazing just from the blurb and it incontestably ended up being a highly addictive read! I couldn't put this book down and read it in one sitting! T.L. Smith shaped a couple with an explosive chemistry that burned up the pages and fashioned an intriguing fast-paced plot! I absolutely loved everything about this novel!” - Book Maniac Forever 
“This book... holy god, it was like a shock to my system, to my senses... to everything in me. From the moment I saw the blurb of Cavalier--and that delectable cover--I knew I wanted to get in on it. It just sounded so dark and daring and sexy as hell. And I was right--it was absolutely all of that and more. It was raw and gripping and downright intriguing. Every page had me holding my breath and clutching the sheets.” - Rentastic Reads
“WOW, what an incredible blend of dark alpha men and strong sassy women. Creed and the Crimson Elite Boys set the new standard for powerful, possessive and down right irresistible men. Though the playfulness of Echo and Falcon sharply contrast with the darker, no nonsense Creed and Darby.” - Kathryn Clik Book Blog
“5+ PHENOMENAL CRIMSON ELITE STARS!! This book is in my top 10 books for 2018. T.L. Smith is going out with a bang for 2018, with her new series....It is PHENOMENAL. Creed is the perfect man hot, quiet, confident, rich and knows how to take care of a woman” - Rhonda Goodreads reviewer
Welcome to Crimson Elite, the most exclusive sex club in the world.
Enter at your own risk, and always remember our number one rule—
You must never speak of Crimson Elite—the punishment is severe.
Creed ‘Too Hot For Words’ Christopher
If God created the perfect man he would closely resemble Creed, on the outside that is.
He’s as cavalier as they come. Unconcerned. Cold. Dismissive. I wonder if he has any feelings at all.
And when his lips touch mine, everything goes black. He takes me into his world, and it’s the most magical thing I’ve ever experienced.
And I’m sucked in time and time again.
Like a moth to the flame, I am ready to be set alight.
Elicea ‘F*cks With My Head’ Beckham
Elicea is a firecracker. She has piqued my interest, and no one piques my interest anymore.
Beautiful women are what I do—it’s my work.
Not one of them has managed to get their claws into me the way she does. It’s as if she’s seeing my ice heart and trying to set it alight with each touch of her sinful lips.
But that can’t work, it won’t work.
Not in my world.
HOSTED BY:


I practically inhaled this book. The first in a brand new series, Cavalier is Creed and Eliceas story and gets the Crimson Elite series off to a great start. 

Creed, along with his three friends, owns the exclusive sex club Crimson Elite. He’s all business, dealing with beautiful women all day long has made him unaffected. Until he meets firecracker Elicea. Elicea isn’t having the best night when she meets the alluring Creed and neither her or Creed are expecting him to offer a solution. 

Creed and Elicea are explosive together. With Creed blowing hot and cold and the sexual chemistry between them off the charts, I was completely hooked on their story and it’s left me desperate for more from the Crimson Elite series.

Release Blitz & Review...Right Where I Want You by Jessica Hawkins




Title: Right Where I Want You
Author: Jessica Hawkins
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: December 28, 2018



Blurb

There’s a thin line between love and hate . . . and it cuts right through the middle of their office.

Bad boys? They run right over good girls like Georgina Keller.

But after a confidence-shattering breakup, she’s determined not to let anyone at her new workplace push her around—least of all the brooding creative director, a “bad boy of publishing” who’s made it clear she’s enemy #1.

Sebastian Quinn's taste for fast cars, late nights, and beautiful women may have gotten him to the top of a leading New York magazine, but the reputation that made him is suddenly threatening to end his career.

Georgina can help Modern Man shed its bad reputation, but in order to do that, she’ll have to start at the top—and no amount of rakish charm or inconvenient attraction will distract her.

Because if Sebastian gets her right where he wants her, it means she’s going down.

Excerpt

At the stadium’s concession stand, I took a tall stool, putting Georgina and I at eye level since she stood. “So, why didn’t you kiss François?” I asked. “Bad breath?”
She gasped into her hand. “My breath is fine.”
“I meant his. I’m sure yours is pure relish on a hotdog.”
She made a face. “Gross.”
“I happen to love relish,” I said. “But does François?”
Each time I said François with flourish, she flinched. I didn’t care. Something about him bugged me—I just couldn’t put my finger on it.
“We didn’t kiss because you interrupted us,” she pointed out.
“So? If I were in his position, and we both wanted that kiss, I wouldn’t let anyone stop me.”
Frank and I are clicking,” she said, scowling. “There was even mention of spending time at his summerhouse.”
“Hamptons?”
She coughed into her fist. “Boca Raton.”
The idea of Georgina spending a summer with him in Boca Raton was tragic enough that I almost smiled. I got the sense she was playing up the date. If it was so great, why wasn’t she sitting here with him? And why was I more relieved than smug about that? “Meanwhile, Justin and I will be clamming in Montauk.”
“You two should really just make it official and announce your love to the world.”
“But then I wouldn’t get to flirt with pretty girls.”
“For someone who pretends to have as much game as you,” she said, “I still haven’t seen you successfully flirt with any girls since I’ve known you.”
I smirked. “How do you know I’m not flirting with you right now?”

I love romances that go from hate to love, throw in the whole working together and I’m all over it. 

Sebastian and Georgina don’t get off to a good start when Georgina is brought in to help get the magazine back to the top and Sebastian feels as though his toes are been stepped on. Everything about these two is absolute perfection. Their banter and chemistry and the depth of their character drew me in and quickly had me hooked. You get a real feel for the true person behind both Sebastian and George and the more I got to know them, the more I could relate to them which made them really easy to like. There’s also some brilliant supporting characters that I’d love to see more of (hint, hint). 

This is another brilliant book from Ms Hawkins. It made me laugh, it made me swoon and it completely sucked me in, I couldn’t put this book down.

Release Blitz & Review...Conor by A. Zavarelli

Title: Conor (Boston Undercover)
Author: A. Zavarelli
Genre: Dark Romance
Release Date: December 27, 2018
Ivy
When I stumbled into a mafia run club seeking a job, I was looking for protection. Little did I know I’d need protection from him.
Conor O’ Callahan was exactly the kind of danger I was trying to avoid. He was gorgeous as sin with an accent hotter than Hades, but that’s where the charm ended.
He was also cynical, cold, and downright cranky.
So, you could imagine my surprise when he gave me a proposition. Marry him or lose my life.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. I’ve learned to do what’s necessary to survive in this world, and that includes marrying a mobster. Regardless of what he might say, it’s only temporary.
It’s not like I’m going to sleep with him. Or fall for him.
Because that would be stupid, right?

"It held me in its clutches with the hotness, the sweetness, and the action-packed ride I never wanted to end!!"- Erika, Bookhaven Bookblog

"I love me some Conor. He is dreamy af. Lethal and sweet, my ultimate book boyfriend!"- Amber, Leave Me Alone I'm Reading

"I read this in one sitting, devoured it, inhaled it, loved it!! Not once did I put it down."- Kitty Kat's Crazy About Books

"He is the ultimate alpha perfection!" - Sansa Reads

"JUST GRAB THIS BOOK ASAP and READ IT."- Gone With the Romance
A. Zavarelli is a book junkie, cat lover, and traveler when plagued by intense cases of wanderlust. She likes all things chocolate, books that come with warnings, and putting her characters through hell. 
Her tales have been known to flirt with darkness and sometimes court it unabashedly altogether. Revenge themes and tortured souls are her favorites to write and this gives her an excuse to watch bizarre and twisted documentaries in her spare time.
She is slightly obsessed with Theo James and funny animal memes. If you don’t mind these things, you should add her on facebook.

I absolutely loved this book. I’m a massive fan of the Boston Underworld series and it’s men and Conor is right up there with my favourites. 

Conor is supposed to be keeping an eye on Ivy when she’s given a job in their strip club. He knows there’s more to her than meets the eye but he’s not going to be won over easily. I loved Conor. He’s cold and at times quite harsh towards Ivy but as she wins over his trust, his brooding possessiveness starts to come out. 

This is a great novella with brilliant characters that’s filled with plenty of drama and action aswell as some really sweet parts that balances it out nicely. Another great book from A. Zavarelli that I definitely recommend.
