Excerpt:

Ember

Jackson Cane tastes like red-hot cinnamon, salt water, and sin.

When he concentrates, his long fingers twist in the back of his dark hair, right at the base of his neck, and he tugs.

Tugs… tugs…

I like to weave my fingers between his and pull.

Then ocean-blue eyes blink up to mine sending electricity humming in my veins. He smiles. I smile, and it isn’t long before our lips touch. I climb onto his lap in a straddle as I open my mouth, and his delicious tongue finds mine heating every part of my body. Our kisses are languid and deep, chasing and tasting. We sizzle like fireworks on a hot summer night…

Eventually, with a heavy sigh, I pull away, but hours later my mouth is still burning. I taste him everywhere I go.

Lying in my bed in the dark room, my heart aches, heavy and painful in my chest. Every breath is a burden. I blink slowly at the ceiling and slide my tongue against the back of my teeth thinking about hot cinnamon, tangy salt, caramel and sugar, sunshine and the best summer of my life…

The instant I hear it, I’m on my feet and tiptoeing to my open window. The low growl of an engine tells me he’s there in the darkness, out on the street in the shadows just past the streetlight.

It’s late summer, and the humidity hangs heavy in the air. Bugs scree from the limbs of the mighty oak tree outside my window. Their damp wings make them too heavy to fly, and the sadness in my chest is replaced with breathless anticipation.

I’m panting. I’ve never felt this way for anyone, and I’m desperate to hold onto it. I somehow I know I’ll never feel this way for anyone ever again.

Quiet as a mouse I scamper to my bedroom door and listen. The only sound is the hum of Mama’s oscillating fan pushing the warm air around her bedroom. I can’t hear her breathing. I can’t hear anything… except the noise of Jackson’s engine on the street below, waiting.

Red-hot cinnamon.

Salt water.

Sin.

Pressure tingles around the edges of my skull, and a bead of sweat tickles down the side of my neck, dropping past my shoulder, slipping between my breasts.

I’m at my window slowly lifting the glass, and I don’t care if she hears me. I dive through the space, out onto the cedar shake roof in my bare feet. I’ll get a splinter if I’m not careful…

So many reasons to be careful—I ignore them all.

Synopsis:

From international bestselling author Tia Louise comes a new STAND-ALONE second-chance romance…

Ember Rose was spicy-sweet seduction.

My biggest temptation.

My biggest regret.

I thought she’d always be waiting for me.

I was wrong.

Now I’m back in Oceanside searching for peace, hoping to escape what my life has become.

She isn’t supposed to be here…

Dark hair blowing in the ocean breeze,

Luscious curves barely hidden by thin cotton.

I didn’t come back for her.

But when we touch, I know I’ll do whatever it takes to make her mine…

Release Day Blitz!!! Happy Release day to Sidney Halston with her new romantic suspense Last First Kiss


Title: Last First Kiss
Author: Sidney Halston
Genre: Romantic
Suspense



He’s an A-list Hollywood heartthrob. 

She’s trying to prove herself in a man’s world.
For this female bodyguard, protecting her client is simply business, but what happens when sparks fly and the danger heats up?
After a series of box office flops, Rocco Monroe needs a hit. Bad press, shit talking, rumors, lies…it all goes with the territory after almost two decades in the spotlight, but when he lands the role of his career in a controversial biopic, the part of a lifetime comes with a catch: a hired bodyguard.
Annabelle Clad is so bored she wants to scream. Her life is coding and algorithms and binary codes…rinse and repeat. To her Rocco Monroe means freedom, a chance to show her overprotective brother and business partner that she can contribute to Iron Clad Securities. And no arrogant playboy will fuck up her concentration by batting his lashes at her. She would never jeopardize her reputation by swooning over any man. 

That had happened once, and she wouldn’t bear that loss or humiliation ever again. Even if Rocco looks like a walking fantasy…

LAST FIRST KISS

“You’re
twenty-seven years old, and you’re absolutely stunning. And I say that as a man
with eyes, not as a man who’s hitting on you. Although, please, be aware I’m
hitting on you. I’ve been doing that since we me.”

USA Today bestselling author, Sidney Halston lives her life with one simple rule: “Just Do It”–Nike. And that’s exactly what she did. 
After working hard as an attorney, Sidney picked up a pen for the first time at thirty years old to begin her dream of writing. Having never written anything other than very exciting legal briefs, she found an outlet for her imaginative, romantic side and wrote Seeing Red. That first pen stroke sealed the deal, and she fell in love with writing. Sidney lives in South Florida with her husband and children. She loves her family above all else, and reading follows a close second. When she’s not writing, you can find her reading and reading and reading. 
She’s a reader first and a writer second. When she’s not writing or reading, her life is complete and utter chaos, trying to balance family life with work and writing (and reading). But she wouldn’t have it any other way.


<a href="http://Last First Kiss (Iron Clad Security #2)Last First Kiss by Sidney Halston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Last First Kiss by Sidney Halston is the second book in the Iron Clad Security series. This book is one that is really close to my heart because I too was an MP in the Army. Annie is the little annoyingly smart sister to Joey Clad, the co-owner of Iron Clad Security. She is one of the best when it comes to computers but she has the combat training under her belt and she is ready to get into the fight as an actual security guard, except everyone seems to be against her. Rocco is the playboy actor looking at playing the lead in a movie that will make his career, yet this movie is one that people don’t want to be made. Rocco is forced to get a bodyguard but he didn’t expect what else he would get when he hired the feisty girl in the conference room. These two have great chemistry, they are well developed, instant lust but a slow growing love and I love that as tough as she is, Rocco brings out her softer side and gets her to open up about what happened to her while she was in combat. Thank you Sidney for writing another amazing book and one that I hope ladies can look up to this heroine/soldier.

Balance Check: Review 

Review and graphic by: Taylor 

Rating: 5 stars 

Greg and Elena are still some of my favorite Rom-Com characters. They really know exactly what to say and do to make my day.

I plowed through this book in a day because I could not put it down! I just had to know what crazy thing was gonna happen next! Carter made them so lovable that I just didn’t want to let them go! 
M.E Carter is lucky she gave me this beautiful ending to this story because Getting a Grip left me wanting to get a grip around her neck! Balance Check was the exact thing that not only I needed, but that Greg and Elena deserved. Love them and love Carter for making them.

Rating: 5 Stars 

Thank you, thank you! This book is just what I needed after Getting a Grip. It was funny and fun! I’ve never read a book with more relatable characters. 
The book follows up after the last with the lives after Greg moves. Let me tell you, him moving made me so mad! UGH LIBBY SUCKS!  

I’d write more, but I just put some hotdogs on to boil. enjoy the book, it’s perfect!

Coming Up For Air: Review 

Review and graphic by: Taylor 

Rating: 5 stars

I’ve always loved Miranda Kennally’s books and Coming Up For Air was no different. 

This book was a coming of age story. It told the story of Maggie who is a Swimming Superstar. 

Even with someone who is amazingly talented as Maggie though, will have some confidence problems. She battles not just others in the pool, but herself as well. 

I really love how well Kennally told the story of a girl who wasn’t afraid to go for what she wanted, even if she had every right to be. 

I can’t wait to read yet another book by her.

Body Parts: Review 

Review and graphic by: Taylor 

Rating: 5 Stars

This book was a dystopian lovers dream! It explored so many different aspects of what our future could possibly become. 

Everyone in this day and age wants to be faster, stronger, smarter, more beautiful. No one is satisfied just being themselves. 

Body Parts is a scary thrill ride that I couldn’t decide if I wanted off of it or not. 

It takes you down the path of what can happen if we let our vanity get to out of control. What happens when we no longer care about anything but ourselves? Are we willing to do anything to be better versions of ourselves, even if it has a great cost? 

I don’t think we are prepared to pay it.

I highly recommend this book and I look forward to other books by Kapp.

Steady: Review 

Rating: 4 stars 

Polly and Erik’s chemistry is off the charts from the very beginning. They are immediately drawn together. I love how the chemistry between them two just leapt off the pages. 
Polly and Erik both have had extremely horrible things happen to them in their lifetimes. So it makes sense that they would be the ones to heal each other. 
I’ve read all of Brooks books, and they always manage to really suck you in and bring you to her worlds. I love how her books are so intertwined with each other. It makes you feel like you already know the characters beforehand.

The Learning Hours: Cover reveal

 

He’s not a douchebag;

but that doesn’t stop his friends from

turning him into one.

 

 

MY FRIENDS WANT ME TO GET LAID.

So much so that they plastered my ugly mug all over campus, in bold printed letters:

Are you the lucky lady who’s going to break our roommate’s cherry?

Him: socially awkward man with average-sized penis looking for willing sexual partner. You: must have pulse. Text him at: 555-254-5551

The morons can’t even spell. And the texts I’ve been receiving are what wet dreams are made of. But I’m not like these douchebags, no matter how hard they try to turn me into one.

THIS ISN’T THE KIND OF ATTENTION I WANT.

One text stands out from hundreds. One number I can’t bring myself to block. She seems different. Hotter, even in black and white.

 

However, after seeing her in person, I know she’s not the girl for me. But my friends won’t let up—they just don’t get it. Douchebags or not, there’s one thing they’ll never understand: GIRLS DON’T WANT ME.

Especially her.

He’s seated at a table in the far corner when I spot him from the door. He’s not hard to miss—not with his purple t-shirt in a sea of black and yellow, and wavy mussed hair.

He’s slouching, hunched over his table.

Defeated. Tired.

My stomach rolls with nerves, nerves that have me rooted to the spot in the doorway, watching him.
Just watching.

For the entire four minutes I stand here, he sits immobile, studying his laptop, eyes moving along the screen, completely transfixed by whatever he’s reading.

Learning.

“Just go over there,” I whisper to myself, blowing out a puff of pent-up air.

I put one foot in front of the other and begin toward him, spine ramrod straight, steeling myself, prepared for another argument.

Twenty feet.

Fifteen.

Eight.

Two.

“Hi.”

No reply.

“Do you mind if I sit here?” I lay my hand on the back of the wooden chair across from him, intending to pull it out.

He stiffens but doesn’t lift his head. “Yes I mind.”

“Would you mind if I sat at the table next to you?” I’m pushing his buttons, looking for a reaction, but he only spares me a brief glance.

Shrugs. “Free country.”

I bite my lip to hide a smile, glad he didn’t tell me to take a hike…
