Author: Terri E. Laine 
Release Date: June 2, 2016

Synopsis 

USA Today Bestselling Author, Terri E. Laine brings a new standalone New Adult Romance novel, Chasing Butterflies, about second chances on and off the field.

One night … one kiss … one touch … will change everything.

Kelley Moore’s tragic home life should make him a survivor. But when he’s uprooted yet again, his plans for a better future seem impossible. Being a player on and off the football field is all he knows, until Lenora Wells. The beautiful town princess makes him feel and want things he never thought he could have…

Lenora will do anything to get out of her town, even if it means dating the wrong guy. There’s one problem: she can’t stop thinking about the gorgeous, complicated boy with the unusual eyes who gives her butterflies and makes her question her choices.

When their lives collide, the world shifts and not in their favor. Four years later, the sins of their past can never be taken back and forgiveness won’t come easy.

College is a different game, a second chance for something better.

She’s not the girl he remembers and he’s the one boy she can never forget.

He’s made a name for himself as the star quarterback -- the golden boy who can do no wrong. But he’s only interested in being her hero.

Despite everything, she can’t deny he still makes her heart flutter; and she’s got him chasing butterflies.

Andrea's review
*ARC received in return for an honest review

Oh wow, I totally loved Chasing Butterflies!

What an emotional roller coaster the author took me on. I have shouted (quite a lot) and shook my fist at my kindle in anger. I have cried for what Lenora had to endure. My heart has nearly pounded out of my chest in fear of what may happen and I have swooned and sighed my way through a wonderful story of first love and second chances highly charged with so much emotion.

I am so in love with Kelly and Lenora. Their chemistry together was enough to melt my kindle! They were so perfect for each other.
Lenora was such a strong character that it was heartbreaking to follow her into college and see what became of her.
Kelley experienced so much heartache and loss for such a young boy, my heart wept for him.

The author did a fabulous job in keeping me hooked from from the very beginning, capturing my attention until the end, and boy what a beginning that was! 
Terri E. Laine certainly knows how to pack a punch. Just when you think the plot is ticking along nicely she blind sides you and leaves you reeling from powerful, and sometimes dark, plot twists.
I can't say much more without revealing spoilers but I'm hoping there will be a follow up as I feel Kelley's friend, Chance, needs his story to be told.

I can't recommend Chasing Butterflies enough, go 1-click today.

Author: D.L. Roan
Genre: M/M Romance, Gay Romance, Family Sagas

Some goodbyes are forever. Those are the hardest to say.

At the height of the Cold War, a soldier and a spy begin a forbidden, unlikely affair that leads to a lifetime of love and loss, triumph and tragedy. Daniel and Cade’s ageless passion has forged an extraordinary family, and healed the hearts of those they love, but their journey was never easy.

From their first goodbye to their last, this is their story.


Get your hands on Daniel and Cade now!



Andrea's Review
*ARC received in return for an honest review

This book rocked my world, I FREAKIN' loved it!!! Be prepared for a HUGE book hangover.

I've NEVER been so turned on by a love scene between two men until now. Holy sh*t!!!

I've only read a few m/m stories and that was because they were part of a series where I was following a supporting character's development and needing them to have their own story.
And that's one of the reasons why I read The Hardest Goodbyes  and the other, because the author is D.L. Roan whose writing I absolutely adore.

I have laughed, swooned and cried my way through this book, finally finishing with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. I love everything this author has ever written but this has to be the best so far. I was hooked from the first page until the very last, I didn't want it to end.
The author has done a wonderful job in bringing Daniel & Cade's story to life. You'd never guess that this is her first m/m book. It's raw, hot and sexy but beautiful, sensitive and heartbreakingly moving.

Daniel Gregory & Cade Candelle first made a brief appearance in The Heart of Falcon Ridge (The McLendons Family Saga #1) and have kind of stayed on the sidelines of each book in the series but creeping further and further into forefront until they demanded their own story. And boy, what a story!! 
I never realised just how much this couple had crept in to my heart until now and I was totally unprepared as to how I would feel afterwards...bereft. 

I fell in love with Cade because he is such a devil and a charmer, the way he had fun teasing Daniel made me chuckle but Daniel...I ADORE him! My heart hurt so bad for him and what he endured over the years. Never in my wildest dreams, when reading the previous books did I guess what he went through. I just wanted to put my arms around him and hug him tight.
Chapter ten, O.M.G!! That's all I will say. When you get to it then you will know and your heart will break too.

I can honestly say that this is the most beautiful and emotional story I could ever hope to read about the love between two men. Their love is enduring, unbreakable and everlasting, surviving the trials and test of time. Their love is ultimate.
If you've never read an m/m romance before then take a chance on Daniel & Cade and make them your first. Trust me, you won't regret it because this isn't a story about romance. It's a story about life and love.
I can't recommend it highly enough. Go 1-click NOW!!!

***Although The Hardest Goodbyes is the fifth book in The McLendon Family Saga it can be read as a standalone without the need to read any of the others in the series. However, I strongly recommend that you read them first, along with Surviving Redemption (Survivor's Justice #1) to give you a better understanding of the characters and their back stories. And because they are both awesome series and you'd be crazy not to!!

Book Tour: Je Suis a toi (Monsters in the Dark #3.5) by Pepper Winters + excerpt

JE SUIS A TOI_BOOK_TOUR.jpg


je suis.jpg

Title: Je Suis a toi
Series: Monsters in teh Dark #3.5
Author: Pepper Winters
Release Date: May 31, 2016
Synopsis
Q made me the happiest esclave in the world. He gave me his heart, his empire, his ruthless unforgiving love. And life finally left us in peace.

A man like my maître has special needs though, growing stronger as our lives intertwine. The only way to survive his monster is to agree to all his desires.

Including his latest wish.

I’m his. 

And I won’t refuse.



je suis a toi live.jpg

“Life taught me an eternal love will demand the worst sacrifices. A transcendent love will split your soul, cleaving you into pieces. A love this strong doesn’t grant you sweetness—it grants you pain. And in that pain is the greatest pleasure of all.”


Q is Back in Je Suis A Toi by Pepper Winters!


NOW LIVE!  

je suis a toi teaser 2.jpg
Excerpt
“Don’t struggle. You know I’ll keep you safe.” Q’s murmur danced down my back.
My panic receded as trust billowed fast and true.
Q was born into darkness, but he’d never baptized me in his blackest desires. And because of that, I could implicitly say he spoke the truth. No matter what he did to me, he would never truly harm me.
Q paused, his tattooed chest soaking. His feathered sparrows fluffing off droplets almost alive on his skin. “I told you once never to fall for me. That I didn’t want the curse of breaking your heart while I broke so many other pieces of you.” His hands landed on my breasts, cupping them reverently. “Yet you fought me, just like you said you would. You fell for me, just like you promised me you would. And now, you’re willing to give me what I need even after I tricked you and lied.”
I swayed as I fell even deeper for this complex husband of mine. Q was all my fantasies in one glorious lifetime. The fact he finally wanted to share me with his child spoke volumes about his capacity to love.
“I’m so glad you ignored me, esclave.” His fingertips branded my nipples with pain. “So fucking happy you married me.” Pushing me backward, he smiled harshly as my spine met the pool wall. His chest strained as he sucked in a heavy breath. “You’re so fucking beautiful.”
My heart hammered in my ears as he kissed me.
His tongue laced with mine, and I sank into the sweet embrace, knowing it would be the last I received tonight. The air crackled with an impending storm. Q’s control frayed every second, his eyes drenching in determination and the salacious need to hurt.
Breaking the kiss, he opened his hand, revealing the other item he’d retrieved.
A tiny pair of silver scissors.

Cover Reveal: A Beautiful Sin by A.M. Hargrove & Terri E. Laine


Title: A Beautiful Sin
Authors: A.M. Hargrove & Terri E. Laine
Release Date: June 23, 2016

Synopsis

Since I was a boy, my desire was to marry the church. To give my vows and life over to God despite the corruption in my soul. 

I am a sinner, the embodiment of temptation, or so I’ve been told.

Yet, I’ve never touched, never kissed, never sought the company of another until her.

She is my weakness, my salvation, my downfall and my freedom. Our sins are bound tighter than fate.

My name is Canaan. I am an ordained Roman Catholic priest, forever and always. 

Her name is Haven. She may be my destiny, my destruction.

This is not a love story, but rather a confession of all my sins.

**Warning – A Beautiful Sin is a forbidden romance that blurs the lines between passion and religious faith. 

Please be warned, the subject matter may be offensive to some readers**

About The Authors


One day, on her way home from work as a sales manager, USA Today bestselling author, A. M. Hargrove, realized her life was on fast forward and if she didn’t do something soon, it would be too late to write that work of fiction she had been dreaming of her whole life. So she rolled down the passenger window of her fabulous (not) company car and tossed out her leather briefcase. Luckily, the pedestrian in the direct line of fire was a dodge ball pro and had super quick reflexes enabling him to avoid getting bashed in the head. Feeling a tad guilty about the near miss, A. M. made a speedy turn down a deserted side street before tossing her crummy, outdated piece-of-you-know-what laptop out the window. She breathed a liberating sigh of relief, picked up her cell phone, called her boss, and quit her job. Grinning, she made another call to her husband and told him of her new adventure (after making sure his heart was still beating).

Other than loving writing about romance, she loves chocolate, ice cream, and coffee and swears they should be added as part of the USDA food groups.



I am the co-author of USA Today bestseller, Cruel and Beautiful. I write romance with heart and heat. Wife and mother of three, I’ve always been an avid reader. In my early years, my best friend and I would tell each other stories over the phone when we were bored. We called them our “soap operas” and generally revolved around whatever boy we liked at the time.

Over five years ago, I got this crazy idea to write a novel and try to publish it. And the rest is history. This journey has been a blessing, and a dream realized. I look forward to many more memories to come.

I write under several pen names with over a dozen titles under my various names. I have a few more up my sleeves to be revealed soon.

Getting kicked out to start. Running into the man who destroyed your family.
