Release Blitz & Review...Hard Pass by Sara Ney

Release Date: June 16

“Hard Pass.”
That’s what the last girl I slept with said when she got her first sober glimpse of me. She laughed, walked out of my penthouse—and I never saw her again. It doesn’t matter that I’m a rich, professional athlete; what mattered was my face. 


Beauty might only be skin deep for some—but I know better.

“Pay Up.” 
That’s what the last girl I spoke to said over the phone when I made her an offer she couldn’t refuse. Desperate to sell a set of rare baseball cards, she’s clever and entertaining. I’m instantly smitten, but nowhere ready to reveal myself. Thank god she has no idea who I am—or what I look like. 

I’m a professional athlete--how hard can playing the love game be?

I absolutely loved Noah and Miranda’s story. I don’t know what it is about Ms Neys men that makes me go wild for them but she’s done it again with Noah. He wasn’t at all what I was expecting and I loved it. He’s just a really down to earth, decent, all round good guy who happens to be a successful, professional athlete. There’s something real about him that I couldn’t get enough of. Maybe it was his shyness, his maturity, his insecurities that are so easy to relate to. It could be all of it, I’m not sure but he had me swooning all over the place.

Miranda is another great character. She’s selling her grandads baseball cards, she doesn’t want to but needs must, so she ends up sticking them online in the hopes of getting the money to start up her new business. Noah is a collector and just about loses his mind when he sees his chance to get his hands on one of his longed for cards and can’t get in touch with Miranda fast enough. The banter between these two is great, I loved the back and forth messages and the slow burning chemistry between them. There’s some really funny parts that had me cracking up and I didn’t think I’d be saying this but I’m quite the fan of Buzz (really hoping I get his story).

I picked this up late on a Saturday night with every intention of reading just one chapter. I ended up staying up until the early hours without even realising how late it was. This story really sucked me in, I was fully invested in the characters and their relationship and I definitely recommend picking up a copy of Hard Pass.

Cover Reveal...Only One Kiss by Natasha Madison

Release Date: September 1


From USA Bestseller Natasha Madison comes a brand new Hockey series The Only One.


Ralph 
Being traded to Dallas was a dream come true. I had everything I wanted, my game had never been better, and my wife was due to have our baby any day now.

What could go wrong?
Everything.

I was now raising our baby on my own. After hockey practice and games, I didn't have time to sleep, let alone make sure my social media was up to par.

I never thought I'd get a second chance at love.

Candace 
When my hotshot brother was drafted in the NHL, he didn't have time to do his social media, so I took over for him. Little did I know it would become my career.

My plate was full with over fifty NHL players, and I wasn't taking on any new clients.

Yet when he showed up on my doorstep with the cutest little girl in the whole world, I couldn't say no.

I was just helping, but it turned into more than that. He's the man I've been waiting for.

All it takes is one touch, one night, one chance, and only one kiss.

Meet Natasha Madison 
When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...

Release Blitz & Review...The Change Up by Meghan Quinn

  The Change Up by Meghan Quinn Release Date: June 11th Genre: Romantic Comedy   Add to Goodreads: https://bit.ly/3c58fnB
       
  AVAILABLE NOW!! FREE in Kindle Unlimited! Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3hcyDzK Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/2YkBIoz Amazon CA: https://amzn.to/30viSOf Amazon AU: https://amzn.to/30vj1kL       
  Blurb: BREAKING NEWS: The Bad Boy of Baseball, Maddox Paige, is totally and utterly whipped. Okay, that might not be the headlines in the newspaper this morning, but it's the reality of my current situation. It all started a month ago when I received a call from my best friend, Kinsley. She got a new job in Chicago and needed a place to stay. I've known the girl since I was five, what harm would it be to have her stay at my place for a while? Ha! Total disaster. Now instead of going out every night with my teammates, I'm couch surfing and sketching endless photos of my best friend . . . but that's the least of my concerns. The disaster, you ask? I'm rapidly falling head over cleats in love with my best friend, my roommate, and my number one fan. And she has no idea . . .       
  Prologue: **MADDOX** Have you ever said something you regret? Something you haven’t forgotten about an hour later? Something that sits with you, stews deep in your belly, and then seeps into your bones, burying itself so far into your marrow that all you can think about is the one thing you said . . . and how you wished you could take it back the minute it slipped past your lips? That’s where I am. Full of regret. People always say, “Don’t regret anything. It’s what makes you who you are.” That was said in a whiney, nasally voice. Did you hear it? Well, those people, the ones trying to spew rainbows and sunshine up your ass about blatant mistakes . . . yeah, they’re only saying that because they fuck up on a daily basis. Think about it, what REAL person is okay with all their regrets? No one. There is always that one thing you did, that one time, that you will always, always, always think . . . “What if I’d done that differently?” It keeps you up at night. You wonder, what transformed, what took over my brain, to utter such words. To alter your life completely and send it down an entirely different course. Yeah, my life has been fucking altered all right. Everything was fine. I was pitching one hell of a fucking season for the Rebels, my ride or die team. I was getting along with my teammates, even the infamous Cory Potter, who made a splash after last season. I’ll hand it to the man, he really is the boss. I was getting laid whenever I wanted, which is always a plus for a guy who has massive amounts of adrenaline pumping through him daily, especially on a pitching day. And there were no strings attached. None. Yeah, I might have a rotation of women I call, but any single player in the major leagues does. You need the outlet. Even the prestigious Cory Potter had some booty call numbers before he found Natalie. I was living a great life, and then it all changed. And it changed fucking fast. Before I knew it, I was staring into my fridge at dairy products not made from a cow, but rather from oat. What the fuck is that? Oat milk? Explain to me where an oat has a goddamn nipple. My toothbrush is made from bamboo, which gives off a very woody, splintery taste, and I’ve been using toothpaste tablets instead of paste from a tube . . . because apparently, tubes suck up life in the landfill. The eco-friendly toilet paper in my apartment disintegrates in my hand and is worthless, making bathroom breaks a fucking nightmare. And there’s a goddamn three-legged dog in a suit and tie sitting on my couch that goes by the name Herman, or Hermy for short. I don’t have any privacy, I don’t even remember what meat tastes like anymore, and “Hermy” has a goddamn staring problem. And the three-legged motherfucker, yeah, he’s stealthy. I find him waiting for me outside the shower . . . staring. When I wake up . . . staring. When I’m trying to make a goddamn tempeh sandwich . . . staring. Every time I tell him to “get a life” or to “fuck off” or for the love of Christ “get a new hobby”, he doesn’t even bat an eyelash. He just stares! I can’t fucking take it anymore. I’m losing my goddamn mind and I don’t know . . . maybe it’s because I haven’t had sex in what feels like forever, or because my burgers are now made of imposter “meat”, or maybe because I’m forced to do things I don’t want to do. Either way, something needs to give, because I’m pretty sure from all the vegan shit I’ve been eating, my armpits are just about ready to spring their own mung beans. Christ. One phone call. That’s all it took. One fucking phone call from a person I cannot say no to, a person who will forever and always be . . . my insanely beautiful and free-spirited best friend.
     
  About the Author: USA Today Bestselling Author, wife, adoptive mother, and peanut butter lover. Author of romantic comedies and contemporary romance, Meghan Quinn brings readers the perfect combination of heart, humor, and heat in every book.
   



I love this series and I’ve already claimed my man (Cory) but boy did Maddox came close to making me change my mind. I loved everything about this guy.

Maddox and Kinsley have been friends for years, they talk regularly on the phone but it’s been a while since they’ve seen each other. Kinsley has recently been offered a job in Chicago and needs a place to stay. She’s Maddoxs best friend so why wouldn’t he offer to let her stay with him? He’s not expecting her to have such a massive effect on him though. He’s gone from bad boy baseball player who likes the odd fight and been young, free and single to suddenly living with his vegan best friend who loves animals and who surely but slowly has him becoming a better person.

I absolutely loved Maddox and Kinsley. She is a sweetheart and a genuinely caring person who’s got a heart of gold. She’s a little quirky but I liked that. Maddox is completely different to what I’d been expecting. I loved how thoughtful he was when it came to Kinsley, the guy can’t say no to her and I really liked how wrapped around her finger he was. The banter and chemistry between them was perfect and I may have even swooned a time or two (that sweet side of Maddoxs is a killer).

This is another fantastic book from Ms Quinn. Full of witty banter, toms of chemistry and really likeable characters, this is a definite must read.

Release Boost & Review...Asher by Carian Cole




Title: Asher
Series: Ashes & Embers #6
Author: Carian Cole
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 3, 2020



Blurb

I should have died.

I should have been forgotten.

But I didn’t, and I wasn’t.

Living the life most women only dream about, I was madly in love with my soulmate—Asher Valentine—amazing husband, loving father, and rock’s favorite kick-ass front man. A man who loved me every day, in every way, since we first met as teens. We were blessed with a beautiful daughter who was the light of our life. My all-female rock band was tearing up the charts.

Then tragedy struck, and I lost it all.

Now all I have is a stack of journals, an antique key, and a big black void where my memories should be.

Used to be.

And I have him—this man with wild hair, tattoos from head to toe, a soft voice, and an even softer touch that gives me butterflies. He’s clearly hopelessly in love with his wife.

I’m told that’s me.

But that wife is gone, and she took everything they once had, leaving me in her place.

A broken replacement. A new version that doesn’t quite fit.

I’m slowly falling in love with him, but will he ever truly love me? Or will he forever be in love with her, the phantom woman who haunts us both?

I wasn’t sure what I was in for with Ashers story and I’m not going to lie I was extremely anxious starting it. I knew it was going to be heart wrenching and I knew I was going to have to pull my big girl pants up and hang on for the ride even if I didn’t feel ready to.

I’m keeping this review fairly short and sweet. I really don’t want to give details away because let’s be honest we’ve all been waiting what feels like forever for this book (patience is not one of my strengths, I think a week is a long time to wait) and I know I’d be pissed if I saw a spoiler before I’d read it so....

Asher is everything you think he’s going to be, I could not love that man more if I tried. The strength that guy shows absolutely amazed me. So often people give up when things get tough and I loved that Asher never wavered. He’s loyal and determined, and giving up just isn’t on his radar. When he married he married for life and honestly, is there anything more attractive in a man? (No, no there isn’t).

This is a really emotional story. It didn’t make me cry but it made my heart ache. There’s times it hurts to read and that is a testament to Ms Coles talent. It’s obvious she’s put everything she’s got into this story, it really does show. I’m a huge fan of her other books but with this one she’s gone to another level. Prepare to feel every single thing the characters feel and get ready to ignore your family and everything else around you while you get lost in Ashers story. Once you pick it up there’s no putting it down. I loved this book and can’t recommend it enough.
