Synopsis


My name is Angelica McCoy and I am a man-eater. I use men. I use them to make me feel worthy and beautiful, to help me get through the day. To help me forget.



That is until a certain man walked into my life and turned it upside down. He’s the only person that’s been able to see through the lies, the bullshit masks. He turns every wall I've carefully constructed around my broken heart to rubble.



Without questioning it, without asking for permission he takes my heart and makes it his.



The question is can I get over my own fears, the suffocating disbelief in happily ever after to give him what he needs? What he deserves?

Excerpt and


“Look at me, baby.”
Opening my eyes at his soft command I find his blue ones trained on me. In the past week he’s told me that he adores me and that he wasn’t letting me go. Staring into his eyes as he moves above me, I believe him. His eyes are nearly screaming the words I’m desperate to hear, the words I’m too afraid to say out loud. I wish more than anything for the strength to tell him how I feel.
I thought all of my firsts were used up but I know now just how wrong in that assumption I was. I’ve never made love before. Until now. The emotion in this room is tangible, the delicious feeling of security washing over me as I finally grasp onto those emotions.
I shatter under the man that is slowly taking over my heart. Tears form in my eyes that I’m unable to hold back. I’m toeing the edge so close to jumping, falling for this man. And I have to believe Ryan is right there with me.
My name is no more than a whisper as Ryan follows closely behind with his own release. Even that one whispered word feels more important than any word another man’s spoken to me in the past.



Review


I was so happy when I read Vanquish (book 1). I knew immediately that S.J. McGran was going to be another notable author that I could fold up and put into my sacred box of "keepers". You know what I'm talking about, when your reading a book and it just.. clicks. So naturally I couldn't wait to read Conquer (book 2).

It centres on Angelica McCoy who we are introduced to in Vanquish. She is a man-eater & party animal, and although her family comes from money & status, they are grounded and loving. Angelica harbours a deep seated pain from long ago and guards her heart fiercely. She is only capable of physical intimacy and is happy to burn through men to temporarily numb her pain. Until she meets the man who will not allow her to use him and throw him away. A man who, with his GQ good looks and exceptional intelligence, will melt your panties off!

I don't want to say who that man turns out to be because I dont want to spoil your experience, you'll just have to find out yourself. But I promise you this book will have you feeling every emotion on the spectrum. 

S.J. McGran absolutely nailed it!I couldn't put Conquer down. It is written in dual POV in a tone that is flawless, I absolutely believed every word. These characters & their stories have permeated my heart and I CANNOT WAIT until book 3. LOVE LOVE LOVE this series and so will you- HOS guarantee!!
5 shiny, indefectible stars!! Thanks for another amazing instalment S.J McGran!

COVER REVEAL - THE HURRICANE by R.J PRESCOTT


The Hurricane by R.J. Prescott 
Publication date: February 16th 2015 
Genres: New Adult, Romance


Synopsis:

Emily McCarthy is living in fear of a dark and dangerous past. A gifted mathematician, she is little more than a hollow, broken shell, trying desperately to make ends meet long enough to finish her degree.
Through an unlikely friendship with the aging, cantankerous owner of an old boxing gym, Em is thrown into the path of the most dangerous man that she has ever met.
Cormac “the Hurricane” O’Connell is cut, tattooed and dangerous. He is a lethal weapon with no safety and everyone is waiting for the mis-fire. He’s never been knocked out before, but when he meet Em he falls, HARD. Unlike any other girl he’s ever met, she doesn’t want anything from him, but just being around her makes him want to be a better person.
They are polar opposites who were never meant to find each other, but some things are just worth the fight.












AUTHOR BIO:

I was born in Cardiff, South Wales although I left to study law at the University of Bristol, England. Four weeks before graduation I fell in love, and stayed. Ten years later I convinced my crazy, wonderful fire fighter husband to move back to Cardiff with me where we live with our two equally crazy sons. Juggling work, writing and family doesn’t leave a lot of time, but curling up on the sofa with a cup of tea and a bar of chocolate for family movie night is definitely the best part of my week. “The Hurricane” is my debut New Adult Novel.

One to Leave

By Tia Louise

*unedited draft, subject to change

Release Date: Dec. 29, 2014



Years earlier, behind enemy lines.



Long nights, sitting against the wall staring into darkness. We’d shared just about everything to pass the time, to keep from going insane from the monotony combined with the stress of knowing at any time we could be blown up or shot. We were walking targets, and we’d been lucky.

“You’re right,” Derek exhaled, looking away again, out at the expanse of beige. “I’m proud of my service, but when the time comes, I’ll walk away.”

“You’ve got another road ahead of you.” I didn’t think any less of him. Some guys in this outfit didn’t have the right stuff, the right attitude or the honor, but that could never be said of this guy. “I’m glad we served together.”

“Now who’s getting soft?” His deep laugh was the last sound I heard before the staccato CLANK! of a grenade dropped into the space with us.

We had seconds, if that long. No time to speak, only time to act. Reaching down, I grabbed it, and threw it as fast and hard as I could. It was just out the window when the BLAST! threw us both against the wall.

My back had been curved from the throw, and I hit a bare space. I was winded, but not hurt. Derek was out cold. White smoke filled the room. Our luck had run out, and we were under attack.

Shots fired outside as I made my way through the blindness to where his dark body was slumped on the stone floor.

Fuck!” I shouted. He was as big as me and twice as heavy, but I’d be damned if I left him. With a deep grunt, I hauled him onto my shoulders.

His voice was a groan in my ear. “Stuart. Go on. Go.”

“You’re not dying today, soldier,” I shouted back.

Months of working out and not much else between the explosions and the darkness had me strong as a damn mule. I went up the short flight of steps to the exit. I had no idea what I’d be stepping into when I went through that door, but they knew we were in here. We couldn’t stay.

I held Derek steady on my back as I peered into the smoke and dust filling the air. Two bodies in robes right ahead of us. Not Americans. There wasn’t anything we could do for them, but I would do something for us.

A convoy had been preparing to transport the last of us two houses down. If I could make it that far, it was possible we’d be safe. I couldn’t see a damned thing as I made a break for it. My thighs burned with the exertion and the extra weight, and my lungs seized from the smoke. Derek was a fucking dead weight on my back, but I barely noticed with the adrenaline pumping in my veins. I was born for this.

Blinking hard, I could just make out the hulking shapes of the armored trucks waiting to take us away.

“We’re almost there,” I shouted, even though I was pretty sure he was out again.

Taking the first step, I dug in with my heel, trying to gain speed with traction. Combat boots, thirty-seven pounds of weaponry, ordnance, spying shit, and my commanding officer. I ran as fast as I could to the symbol of safety. I was just there when my feet went out from under me. My ears rang with the noise of the explosion, and pain shot like fire through the lower half of my body. I flew forward and landed on my chest in the dirt.

I couldn’t stop shaking. It wasn’t fear—it was adrenaline combined with the effort I’d been pushing to get us to safety faster. My brain tilted on its side. The trucks were near, but they couldn’t see us in all the smoke and confusion. Bodies were running all around us. I needed to get up, but I was dazed.

God dammit! I was made for this. I tried to force myself to get up, but my body didn’t respond. I was above myself looking down. Derek lay on my back exposed, unprotected. What the fuck was happening to me? I fought against this pansy-assed flake-out. I had to get back down there. I had to carry my brother to safety. I was stronger than this.

Somebody had to see us, but the whole place was in confusion. Another whistling rocket, another explosion. I struggled to open my mouth and yell for backup. Nothing came out. I saw a truck jolt and fly back. It was hit.

Then, like an old-fashioned television switching off, everything blinked to black. I didn’t see anything anymore.

5 STAR REVIEW! BAIT BY M.MABIE (BOOK 1 WAKE SERIES)


SYNOPSIS
He was trouble from the start, but I couldn't resist.

[She was the best kind of trouble. The kind that was so wrong, it felt right.]
I’ve tried and failed to stay away from him.

[I’ve done everything in my power to make her mine and keep her.]
He’s almost impossible to say no to.
[She never tells me yes.]
We’re always fighting.
[When we’re not fighting, we’re… well… making up.]
He makes me laugh so hard.
[I miss her laugh the most.]
I'm a liar.
[She knows the truth, but won’t admit it.]
Sometimes, I wish I'd never met him.
[I wish we could meet all over again. I'd do better.]
His girlfriend knows.
[The guy she’s with is a fool.]
I’ll never love anyone like I love him.
[She doesn't love me enough to choose us.]
It was the wrong place.
[It was the wrong time.]
It should have been him.
[It will always be her.]

*This book contains adult situations and is recommended for adult readers.

MY REVIEW

This has not been an easy book to review, the good ones never are, nor are the ones that hit close to home. So we are introduced to Blake Warren, fresh out of culinary school, her life seems to have itself pieced together nicely. She is dating Grant, a handsome, traditional, all- American and all-round good guy. Although she loves him she can't deny deep down that their relationship is... well...bland.

On a trip to see her best friend Micah she meets Casey Moore. After an initially cool introduction the chemistry that quickly develops between them is meteoric. Soon enough they both become aware that they are standing at the “betrayal-border of no return” and while Blake wars with her conscience and her desire to do the right thing, Casey struggles to deal with the unfamiliar emotions that have gained a stronghold of his heart.

"He wrapped his arms around me, low on my back and we swayed back and forth holding a stare that was loaded. Loaded with 'should we's and 'shouldn't we's, Loaded with pleasure and reality."

The two cannot resist the pull their souls feel to one another and the events that take place next are both exhilarating and tragic. The former because these two are so obviously made for each other; their connection is profound, and the latter because their love faces so many unavoidable obstacles, it seems hopelessly doomed. The story pulls you in until it comes to an incredibly heart-wrenching, bittersweet peak that will have you crying a river  for days after you've put it down.

This book is a shout out to all those who have risked everything in the name of love, for those brave enough to give status quo the finger and go after what their heart truly longs for no matter the cost. It is also a sobering cry to those that chose the path of least resistance in life, the "safe" route, if thats you- be warned- 'Bait' will prod the door behind which you locked away that one big love. 
The one you were too scared to let yourself have.

It is written in dual point of view which was so true to life. I absolutely LOVED Casey, I fell for him hard and while I wanted to bitch slap Blake so many times I could not help but love her also. I totally empathized with the soul crushing position she found herself in...she is braver than me.

I cannot wait for the next instalment M. Mabie thank you for making me feel so many feels ♥

5 bonafide heartfelt stars!
