I'm not good for her, but I can't resist her anymore.

 

Elowyn, the new girl next door, is sweet, kind and radiates joy. My past makes it impossible to feel like that, but just being near her eases something in me that I can't explain. When I see a strange man outside of her door making her uncomfortable, I have to get involved.

 

Turns out, her ex is there to make trouble, and if that's what he wants, I'm more than happy to give it to him. As I wrap my arm around her, I feel a connection that's undeniable.

 

As Elowyn leans on me, I realize that the shadows of my past can't hold me back any longer. She ignites a fire within me that I never knew existed. We're drawn together, like magnets, unable to resist the pull.

 

But with her ex still lurking around making threats, she'll never truly feel safe. I vow to protect her, to be there whenever she needs me. For Elowyn, I'll face my darkest fears to see her light shine again.

TEASER ALERT 

 


Armageddon is coming, and this is her final stand.
Preorder Reality Bites by Lia Davis now!



The end is near.

In the wake of Vassago’s deadly game, Randi endures a lull almost worse than another tango with Stone. Her paranoia feeds on the quiet, filling the silence with fears of Shade reprisal. Sure, the Vampire Council is rebuilding, her once-dead husband has come home, and she’s got time again to spend with her son, Logan.

But what are her enemies up to?

It doesn’t help matters when her new friend, Misty Drake, reports fractures in the unholy alliance that point to possible Shade spies. And then there’s the dead John Doe case, which seemed at first to be a garden variety mob hit but reveals magical connections.

When the investigation dovetails with Shade machinations, Randi slowly uncovers Stone’s biggest plot yet. But Shade spies and secret agents abound, thwarting Randi at every turn. Attacks, betrayals, subterfuge, and a hurricane brewing off the coast of Florida conspire to try and defeat Randi and her coalition of the middle.

When the storm makes landfall, Armageddon comes to Jacksonville. With the help of her two lovers, Cash and Kalon, as well as new allies and old friends, Randi prepares to make the final stand.

The last chapter in the Shade saga packs a punch of apocalyptic proportions. The ultimate battle for the middle unfolds in an epic and emotional climax that will put Randi Sanderson’s strength, heart, and soul to the test.

The Rebound by Jennifer Bernard is #NowLive!
 
 
 
Available on All Platforms

 
 
 
This summer at Lake Bittersweet is going to be a scorcher…

Firefighter Jason Mosedale doesn’t take anything seriously except fires—not even himself.  With his lighthearted approach to everything from dating to raising his teenage sister, he loves his life just how it is.  But if he wants to catch the attention of gorgeous Kendra, he’s going to have to break out of his comfort zone and prove that he’s more than the charming town heartthrob.

Kendra Carter has always been an over-achiever, which is why losing her business and her boyfriend in one swoop was so soul crushing. Now she’s back home in good old Lake Bittersweet, running her father’s restaurant and licking her wounds. If she isn’t the big success everyone expects, who is she? Maybe what she needs is a sexy distraction in the form of a gorgeous fireman--even if she could never take Jason seriously.

So what if they’re both on the rebound? As long as they agree it’s just for now, not forever, no one will get hurt.

Between toxic exes, heroic rescues, and a teenager’s secret, who has time for romance anyway? But that’s the thing about rebounds…you never know where it’s going to end up.

NEW RELEASE SPOTLIGHT: KISSING MY CRUSH (KISSING GAMES) BY C.A. HARMS

 


 

 

 







BLURB



Amara

Tyler Collins has always been the object of my affection. He just doesn’t know it.
I’ve spent years admiring him, fantasizing about him, but never once making a move.
That is until I see him across the room, already a few beers in and drunkenly decide to press my lips to his. One minute I’m sharing a drink with a friend, and the next, I’m Kissing My Crush.

Now I’m trapped at a beautiful resort with the man I so desperately want to avoid, to celebrate the nuptials of our dear friends.

I can feel his eyes on me. He’s watching. Waiting for what I’m not sure. The fear of rejection is too strong for me to mention the kiss. That night is on constant replay in my mind. I often wonder how he would react if I could confess that to me, our kiss was not a drunken mistake.

Tyler

Quiet, sweet Amara, the one woman I never expected to crave and the one I can’t seem to shake. One unexpected kiss, and now all I can think about is her lips pressed to mine.

I’ve managed to avoid attachments, keeping things casual and enjoying one day at a time. Yet, a timid blonde marches across a hazy bar and grabs hold of my hair, giving me the kiss that changes it all. Changes me.

She wants to pretend it never happened, but I never was much for playing games. She might want me to believe the kiss was forgettable, but we both know better. Hands down the hottest kiss of my life.

That moment with her wasn’t nothing. It was everything.
It was the turning point and the start of something I know without a doubt will be more than we both ever could have expected.

REVIEW: KISSING MY CRUSH (KISSING GAMES) BY C.A. HARMS

 

Kissing My Crush (The Kissing Games Book 3)Kissing My Crush by C.A. Harms

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


The Kissing Game series explores love from every angle. With interconnecting friendships and five individual romances this series gives the heart a voice. McLain laid the groundwork, Ryan exposed emotions and Harms is intent on laying claim to the heart. Kissing My Crush is an awakening. Amara and Tyler are caught in a rabbit hole of heartache and yearning that is determined to have lasting results. From captivating temptation to heartbreaking romance, the Kissing Games just keep getting better.
