power couple blurb

Everett James Thompson I’ve been in the spotlight since I was born, thanks to my famous parents. Reaper and Harmony have been the gold standard when it comes to celebrity love stories. It’s hard to be in that shadow, to live up to that precedent. Which is why I stopped trying when my band, Grey Skies hit the big time. But when I go to Vegas to support my Mom, in her new residency, I have absolutely no idea I’ll leave Vegas with a new pop-star wife. Brianna Jenkins As one of the top pop-stars in the world right now, I don’t have time for anything. Much less love, or even a night out. When my best friend surprises me with tickets to the sold-out Harmony Stewart show in Vegas on my one off weekend of the month, I’m beyond excited. Especially when we find out our seats are next to her family . Harboring a crush on her oldest son added with a few more drinks than I normally have equals consequences neither one of us bargained for. The next morning, I wake up no longer Brianna Jenkins, pop star. I’m Brianna Thompson, member of the new power couple, about to take the world by storm. Whether we want to, or not.

Blog Tour Stop Day Two: Times like these (Inspector Marco #4) by Stephen Puleston @books_n_all @Inspector_Marco

A grotesque killing. A killer without mercy and out for revenge. Can Inspector Marco capture the madman before he exacts his final act of vengeance?

The death of Frank Armsby is no ordinary hit and run especially when his links to organised crime suggest a gangland killing. But two failed prosecutions of Armsby for rape and a recent case where the charges were dropped paint a different picture.
When a man is brutally killed in a sadistic attack nothing immediately suggests that both deaths are connected. Detective Inspector Marco is convinced that one killer is at work despite the pressure from his superiors to believe otherwise.

Once an executive in the TV world is found dead in his luxury apartment Marco and another body turns up brutally mutilated Marco is more determined than ever that a single killer is at work.

When he finally determines the culprit, a kidnapping has taken place and Marco has a race against time before the victim is killed.

I write crime fiction based in Wales and about Wales. The rural landscape of north Wales provides the backdrop to the Inspector Drake novels. And Cardiff the capital of Wales provides the setting for the Inspector Marco novels set in a modern urban environment.


I love the novels of Raymond Chandler, Ian Rankin, Mark Billingham, Henning Mankell, Val McDermid – the list could go on! And I enjoy watching detective series on the television the recent Hinterland series based near Aberystwyth in Wales was great. One of my favourites is the French series Spiral but The Bridge and Broadchurch and the Rebus series with Ken Stott and Kenneth Branagh in Wallander are great too.


I have been on writing courses at the Welsh Writers Centre in Llanystymdwy, North Wales tutored by Matt Whyman and Marcus Sedgwick as well as crime writing courses with Peter Robinson and Andrew Taylor at the Scottish Writers centre.


I was born in Anglesey an island off the north Wales coast and after leaving school in Holyhead I went to University in London before training as a solicitor/lawyer. I practised in a small family business doing criminal work in the magistrates and crown courts, divorce and family work.
I still live on Anglesey, North Wales near the beach and the mountains of Snowdonia

MY REVIEW:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

I love a crime and suspense story that holds my mind captive while trying to find the criminal in the story. This story did that through the entire book. At first, I thought it was one character and then I thought it was another, but I did not entirely suspect the correct criminal. I had a feeling I was correct, but then something would come up and I would discount them. A story like this keeps my interest entirely and makes the book so much better for me. I love Detective Marco and Lydia, they are a great team, and they respect each other. This shows towards the end of the book when Detective Marco is having a difficult day. He may be Lydia’s superior, but they have a mutual respect and a great working relationship.

Detective Inspector John Marco is called to a murder scene while he is in the middle of a Taskforce Forum for Domestic Violence. He knows that the speaker, Chief Superintendent Harper, did not appreciate interruptions while he was talking, but Marco also knew that he needed to go to the scene as he would be the lead investigator. He has multiple scenes throughout this book and a few will hit him, Lydia, the CSI Team, and the Coroner pretty hard. This case would be a tough one for DI Marco as the scenes that he has to go to are brutal and depraved, and little to no leads as to who they are looking for.

This story was intriguing and dark, but it was a great read. It pulled me in early on and the suspense and intrigue kept my attention through the entire book. DI Marco is a man that looks at all angles to find his suspect and he has a hard time curbing his snarky side, but he works on it. Lydia seems to be worried at times as to how he will react and respond to some situations. I loved the story and I love the characters. I give this book a 5-star review and look forward to more DI Marco stories. Hopefully there will be more with Alison Swan as well.

Release Blitz and Review of Cruel Intoxication (Underground Kings, Book 4) by Kelli Callahan @kellicallahan92 @GiveMeBooksPR



Title: Cruel Intoxication
Series: Underground Kings #4
Author: Kelli Callahan
Genre: Dark Romantic Suspense
Release Date: October 22, 2020


BLURB

Promise me you’ll love again. I hear the last words my wife said to me every day. 
A promise I have never and will never fulfill. 
My heart is stone. Impenetrable. I don’t care. I spent twenty years in prison for a crime I didn’t commit. The punishment is what I deserved. For not being there for her. I’m on one mission now. And it isn’t to find love like I promised. 
It’s to kill the man that killed my wife. 
It’s near the anniversary of her death now and I’m in the woods, camping. 
Hunting. Keeping my skills sharp. And that’s when I happen upon her. She’s stumbling naked in the forest, cut, bruised, and half dead. I should give her to the authorities, but something about her makes the stone of my heart crumble a bit. But years ago, I made a promise I couldn’t keep. 
And this girl is better off without me. I’m tarnished. No matter what, no matter how tempted, no matter how much I crave her touch, I cannot give in. Promises are made to me broken. But can I live with broken promises? The more I convince myself that I can, the more whiskey says I can’t.

MY REVIEW:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Wow! This story definitely had a plot twist to it that I did not see coming! I loved it.

The Underground Kings are brothers and family by choice. They may get irritated with each other and want to be left alone at times, but they are loyal to each other and love each other unconditionally, the way a family should. However, these men have been accused of crimes they did not commit, and they have been treated as criminals because of it. They all have a rough past and want retribution for the time they have done because of someone else. Owen accepted his punishment and was ready for more, but he was saved by Jaxon when he walked out of prison. He then became a part of a family that would have his back at all times, few questions asked.

She found her way out of a bad life after she finished high school and was making a good life for herself until one day when she ended up being a captive to a monster. She doesn’t even know how long she has been captive, but one thing is for sure, she can’t let this monster win. She has to fight back and get away. Jolie had a path in life that took her from the dead-end family that she was unlucky to be born into. She wanted to go to college and become an accountant. She was on the right path until she wasn’t any longer because of one monster’s path.

This story is tragic, dark, twisted, action packed, suspenseful and such a great read. I have loved the Underground Kings all along the way, but I think Owen’s story may be my favorite so far. I think I may have said that after each story, but Owen and Jolie’s story broke me. Owen has always been such a stoic character and reading his story and seeing a whole other side of him, I love him even more now. Jolie is a strong woman in so many ways. She fought so hard and is such a great character. She’s perfect for Owen and they really complete each other and make each other stronger. I can’t wait for Heaven’s story. I love this series and cannot get enough of these characters. The women are strong, funny and great for their partners. I give this story a 5-star review and highly recommend it and I look forward to more.

MY REVIEW:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

He’s old enough to be her father, but she can’t deny the attraction she has to him. He’s strong, sexy, kind, and caring. Murder has showed her more kindness and caring than her own father ever had. Alexa was raised to be perfect and not disappoint her parents. She’s done the best she could for seventeen years, now she just needs to get away from them and their rules. She finds herself in a bad situation and has no one to turn to for help or safety. The only person she can think of is her best friend’s father, the President of the Royal B’s MC in Charleston, WV, but he’s also a man that she is attracted to.

He knows that she is trouble the first time he lays eyes on her. His daughter shouldn’t be hanging around with her, they’re not even the same age. James “Murder” is a man that is not happy in his marriage and wants his daughter’s best friend. He couldn’t curb his temptation and now these two have a bigger secret than before. The trouble is that can’t be together, James has to try to make his marriage work. It isn’t easy and he has convinced himself that he will never have the woman he loves and will have to watch her find someone to make her happy.

I had not read Lady and the Biker before starting this book, but after reading the note from Ms. Maynard that it would be best to read these books in order, I purchased Lady and the Biker and read it first. I am so happy I did too. This story is a continuation of that book and I would have been a little lost at first had I not read the other book first. The Charleston, WV chapter of the Royal B’s MC have had to rebuild over the years after Murder took the presidency and they have done well. This story shows that not everything is great for the MC, there is betrayal, twists, action, secrets, and eventually, an HEA. There are some crazy characters that are crazy and made me want to scream and tell Murder that he was crazy for thinking things would go as he planned. Did he not know the people that he was living around or with for so long? I really enjoyed the book and can’t wait for more of the RBMC Charleston, WV characters to have stories. I give this story a 5-star review and highly recommend the book as well as the series. These men are dangerous, sexy and very possessive.

BLURB:

A biker princess. A broken billionaire. Can they have more than a few hot nights between the sheets?

The darling little sister of the Demon Squad MC, Sammi loved everything about growing up in the club, including her infuriating older brother Puck. She’d do anything for Puck. After he gets arrested, she marches into the courtroom to give him a piece of her mind and marches out with the prosecutor’s full attention.

Recently clean and sober, prosecutor Stanton Prescott is focused on two things: working his caseload and making his very unprivate life, well…private. But when a sassy woman interrupts one of his cases to give the defendant a dressing down, she’s a temptation he can’t resist.

Stanton tracks Sammi down and makes her a proposal – be her sugar daddy in exchange for a taste of her luscious body. After a month in rehab, Stanton’s active imagination is dying to be set loose. He counts on her to agree, in exchange for getting Puck out of prison. What he doesn’t expect is for Sammi to see past his sophisticated mask. She not only sees him, but revels in the demanding beast within.

Together the pair battle angry exes, suspicious bikers, and other shadowy figures. Will their unlikely love survive the sins of Stanton’s past?

Come follow them on the ride of their lives with just one click.

About Monique
Growing up in New York City, I used to walk the hot pavements in the melting heat of the long summers, and dream. Uptown to downtown, eastside to the westside, and underground to catch a subway racing out into the boroughs.

During my wanderings, my magic pencil spun out fantasies full of romance, with first meetings, heartbreaks, and reunions. Sometimes my boy crush (unrequited, of course) starred as the hero.

I grew up, and after a stint in art school, became a lawyer ‘cuz a woman’s got to make a living. I came from parents who fled to France as refugees, and as an attorney, I dedicated my work to helping survivors of trauma and persecution.

I believe in them. In their grit, in their determination to hold on, to pull through and, somehow, someway, to keep themselves intact, body and soul.
Perhaps that is why I am drawn to writing stories of men and women who live through heart-rending pain, desperate yearnings and, ultimately, reach a place of redemption.

For a long time, I fought the urge to veer off the expected, safe path until I couldn’t go on unless I took a chance and made a change. I began to write, stopped, and began again. Finally, I gave in and here I am.

Come join me on my journey…

Cover Reveal: Thunder (Hells Handlers MC) by Lilly Atlas @EJBookPromos @lillyatlas

Title: Thunder
Series: Hell’s Handlers MC
Author: Lilly Atlas
Genre: MC Romance
Release Date: November 3, 2020
Photographer: Golden Czermak – Furious Fotog
Cover Model: Shane Williams
Cover Artist: Leah Suttle



Makenna has a past she’d rather bury deep in her mind. Unfortunately, as the sole guardian for her five siblings, forgetting where they came from isn’t possible. All she can hope for is to provide her loved ones the kind of untroubled childhood she’d always dreamed of and keep them far away from where she grew up. Friendships and relationships, especially the romantic variety, don’t rank on her priority list. That is until she’s introduced to a hot biker whose playful personality and mesmerizing smile would make any woman perk up and take notice, even one with more responsibilities than sense.

Thunder has seen it all, done it all, and has no interest in the high maintenance, in-your-face, party girls. Give him a no-frills woman, like the diner’s adorable new waitress, who doesn’t play games rather than a scantily clad bimbo who manipulates men for sport. Makenna is precisely the kind of fun he needs to celebrate patching with the Hell’s Handlers MC. Only he quickly discovers Makenna is a package deal with more baggage than a carefree guy like him can handle.

With each passing day, Thunder finds himself increasingly drawn to Makenna despite her mountain of responsibilities and his distrust of relationships. Even crazier is how some of her siblings are working their way under his skin and into his heart, as is Makenna.

Just as Thunder starts thinking about dates and promises, the CDMC roars back into his life. They’re responsible for his beloved club brother’s death, and he wants nothing more than to make them suffer.

When the threats start coming, and Makenna finds herself caught in the crossfire, Thunder will discover exactly the kind of man he is, and how far he’s willing to go to keep Makenna and her siblings in his life.

Title: Courage
Series: Blackstone #4
Author: J.L. Drake
Publisher: Limitless Publishing LLC
Genre: Military Romantic Suspense
Release Date: October 15, 2020


BLURB

Blackstone is at it again. We’re chasing down the cartel, but this time, the tables have been flipped on us. 

Members of Team North Rock are being plucked off one by one. The race to understand what is happening can be the difference between life and death. 

My position at Blackstone requires a clear head, and yet the stress and guilt I carry are affecting my concentration. But after what happened to my sister and the situation I’ve put my family in, I don’t deserve any sort of peace. My team doesn’t even know, and I choose to bear this burden alone. 

Despite my constant internal struggle, I can’t help but notice her – Sloane Harlow. Falling for the lawyer who’s supposed to help us figure things out was never something I planned or expected. 

With danger at every turn, things seem to only get worse. Missions fail, lives are in danger, and somehow, the cartel always seems to know our next move. 

I can’t help but wonder…could there be a mole in the team?

EXCERPT

“John,” Daniel spoke up, “she’s only here for a bit, and for now she’s confined to here and town. We’ll get Davie or Dell to drive her around when she needs to come and go. Frank just wants her out of Washington for a while until the dust settles on the trial.” 
“Why do I have the feeling there is more to this story than I’m being told?” 
Frank smirked and hit my arm playfully. “Because there’s always more, son.” 
I rolled my eyes, and Daniel chuckled. 
“Be nice, John.” Savannah poked her head around the corner. 
“I’m always nice.” 
“You can be, but you also can be a bit cold too.” 
I pointed at her, and Daniel shrugged like he agreed. 
I wasn’t cold, I was quiet. People misunderstood that about me. 
“Would you mind meeting with her tonight?” Frank jumped in. “She’s down at Tin House getting settled.” 
“Yeah, okay. But I would be kinder,” I glared at Savi, “if you gave me something on her.” Frank closed his eyes before he spent the next three minutes giving a tiny rundown of who she was to him. 
I headed outside and started to jog down the pathway. The cold wind made me hunch my shoulders. Winter was quickly taking over the crisp nights of autumn. We were warned this winter was going to be harsh, and nights like this proved it. 
Once I got to the steps, I swallowed back the urge to turn and head back up to my peak and ignore the rest of the world. It was my little oasis and one no one could touch or take away from me. 
The last twenty-four hours had been shit, and the idea of discussing it with some citified- privileged lawyer didn’t sound like a good time. 
With a deep breath that felt cold in the lungs, I knocked on the door. 
“Come in,” a muffled voice called. 
I stepped inside to see a woman bent over a box. I closed the door, and when I turned back around, she was balancing a stack of files. 
Wait? 
I looked around, confused at who I was seeing. 
“I’m here to see Sloane Harlow.” I jolted forward to grab the papers just as they began to slip off the top stack. Slipping my arms under hers, I took the stack and put them on the table. 
“Thank you.” She pushed her hair off her face, and I couldn’t help but stare. Her indigo blue eyes latched on to mine. She was shorter than I was, and if she removed her heels, she’d probably only come up to my shoulder. 
“Agent Black?” 
“Yes, and you are? 
“Sloane Harlow.” 
“Son of a bitch,” flew from my lips. Fucking Mark. 
“Are you calling my mother a bitch?” 
“No.” My eyes popped out of my head at the realization that it sounded like I had insulted her. 
She smirked playfully. “Good.” 
“It’s just, Mark said you were…” I stopped myself again. Why was I talking out loud about this? 
“I was what?” 
“Just, ah,” I stumbled and felt like an ass. “Nothing. Sorry. He’s just a—” 
“A son of a bitch,” she finished for me with a chuckle. 
“Yeah,” I chuckled. 
“Now that we have that cleared up, why don’t you take a seat?” 
“Sounds good.” 
Oh, yeah, that was a great first impression. Savi will have a field day with this.

MY REVIEW:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

John has it in his head that he does not deserve a life or happiness, so he lives his life working for Blackstone and climbing to his peak. His family hasn’t been the same since his twin sister Elle’s accident and he blames himself for it. He will drop everything to be there for his parents and his twin, but when he’s away on an op, it’s not as easy. He hasn’t shared this with his team because it’s his burden to carry. What he doesn’t realize though is that his team would drop everything to help him and his family as well. When an op goes bad and a lawyer is brought in to look at the situation to help figure out what’s going on, John discovers that there may be a happy life for him after all. He just has to overcome his issues and find his way.

Sloane Harlow is a lawyer that needs a place to hide out for a bit after losing a case. She doesn’t believe that she is in danger, but Frank and her father believe otherwise. Besides the fact that Frank is the one in charge of Blackstone and a family friend, he wants to protect Sloane, but he also wants her help in figuring out how the Cartel keeps one step ahead of Blackstone and Team North Rock in Mexico. They’re losing team members and it’s becoming a dangerous situation for the teams when they go on ops. They need answers and Sloane digs until she finds them.

All of the Blackstone men are sexy as heck and loyal. They are a family that plays hard but work hard as well and live dangerously. The Blackstone family is large and growing. When you prove yourself to these men and women you are part of the family for life. John has lost a lot in his life but when Sloane comes into his life, he sees so much more for himself. It may take him a bit to figure it out and let her in, but it is so worth the wait. I have loved all of these stories and John’s story was no different. I had a hard time putting it down, I was so afraid I’d miss something. I needed to know what was going to happen and only put it down at 2:30 in the morning when my husband told me I needed to go to bed. I love the family shenanigans, the strong bond these characters all have together and the Furby incidents. I’m going to miss him too. I give this story a 5-star review and would give it five more if I could. I love Ms. Drake’s stories she has a knack for writing books that draw you in and hold you hostage until the final page. I can’t wait for more stories from Ms. Drake, she’s one of my one-click authors for sure!

BLURB

He was the Golden Boy until she tarnished him… 

I woke up to my roommate and best friend missing. In her place was a note on my bedside table that read: You can only find me with your eyes closed. 
No one thinks a note like that is meant for them. 
I knew it was meant for me, a clue, a way to seek Justice
Whoever left me that note was hoping I didn’t let my parent’s legacy die when they did. They wanted to see what kind of warfare I was capable of. 
Justice before starting a war with the man who wrote the rule book… 

I woke up every day to the same nonsensical bullshit that was my life. 
They say only bad things only happen after dark but I was the exception to every rule. I was bad and I happened whenever I wanted. 
I wanted someone to challenge me, put me in my place, force me to be better than war strategies and hold the audacity to traipse across enemy lines. 
A pink haired receptionist wasn’t my first choice for shaking my resolve. 
I can still smell her but I wanted to know if she’d taste like Victory.
Death before dishonor meant not losing to her…






EXCERPT

Answering the phone, I held onto my breath, when I heard an older woman’s voice come through. “So, you’re the guy responsible for her bad attitude.”
A nervous laugh erupted from me. I had never dated anyone long enough to give them the idea that I would want to speak to anyone important to them.
Besides her.
“I’m so glad you called me back…” The Clave mask slipped back into place, polishing all my stained edges in the hopes of impressing her.
“Didn’t give me much of a choice, since you’ve been calling me every day. Is there something I can help you with?” Her voice showed her age, but her mouth was a family heirloom passed down to Justice.
“I love Justice very much. I wanted to express this to you and prove that I deserve her hand in marriage.”
Laughter poured in from the other end of the phone. “You don’t take no for an answer, do you? If she wanted to marry you, I don’t think she would have evacuated LA like a natural disaster was headed her way.”
“Respectfully, no. I don’t lose gracefully.”
“Go on. I’m gonna need to hear you express those feelings,” she said, but not with an iron fist. Her voice sounded tired and worried for Justice.
“Okay… I’m not a great person, but I’m a better person because of her. I want to be good enough to deserve her.”
“Oh, honey, she wasn’t always a good person either and don’t you let her forget it. Wicked girls like her can’t forget to be humble…”
