Cover reveal - A very bossy billionaire by Scarlett Avery

 Release Date: February 16


A sinful night with your boss’s boss isn’t the recommended path for career advancement. In my defense, I didn’t know who he was when he suggested we take things to a more private setting… 


I don’t usually lose my head when I meet a guy, but in the land of the size zero supermodel, as a full- figured woman, I rarely catch the attention of a sexy as sin man that makes my toes curl with lust at first sight. 


A tall, dark, and very handsome man who wears a bespoke suit like it’s nobody’s business and who loves women with plenty of curves?! 


Yes, please.


I blame his disarming charm and potent masculinity for making me throw caution to the wind. That’s the only explanation as to why I allowed this stranger to do unspeakable things to me after meeting him for a New York minute. 

Imagine my shock when he wanted to see me again.


Finally, finally I get to break my one-time coffee date curse.


Standing up Mr. Suit for our second encounter is the biggest Shakespearean tragedy of my life. I didn’t mean to be a no-show. It was totally out of my control. 


Forcing myself to move forward, despite the crushing setback, I show up at my new job. And… there he is—the smooth-talker with a sexy British accent who corrupted me. 

I’m going to be working under him––I mean, with him?!


Turns out, my boss’s boss doesn't appreciate being stood up without the curtesy of a call or a text. And boy, the man holds a grudge.


Note to self: Hell has no fury like a boss’s boss scorned…

Meet Scarlett Avery


I live in the Great North (aka Canada)!

I’m a USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR and an Amazon Bestseller author! 

Here’s the reason I step into my dream every single morning when I wake up:

“Some books you read. Some books you enjoy. But some books just swallow you up, heart and soul.” — Joanne Harris (Author of the award-winning novel, Chocolat)


I muse about dangerously loving and fierce alphas and the sassy women who bring them down to their knees.

I write sultry, sensual and steamy romance novels, laced with kinks. I’ll admit my novels are scorching hot, but if you can’t push the boundaries between the pages of a book, it’s just not fun.


I’m constantly walking around with new stories/dialogues floating in my head. I consider myself lucky I get to spend my days dreaming up the most delicious alphas in romance. I love every minute of it!

  ;

On a personal note… 

I have a serious love affair with Italian gelato, ice cream, pound cake, white chocolate and Macadamia nut cookies, peanut butter cookies, and Martinis. I could live off French or Italian charcuterie boards. California Chardonnay? Thank you, God!

 

Like most women, I have way more shoes than I need, but it’s so hard to resist getting new ones. If you’ve read my books, you know I have an obsession with high heels, hence the photo at the top. At 5’9, I hardly need more height, and God knows I can’t walk like a lady with anything higher than 2 1/2 inches, but I drool all over them, and admire women who can rock heels. That’s why I live vicariously through my main female characters who wear 4 and even 5-inch heels with elegance and poise.

 

I hold two University degrees in two different languages from two of the two prestigious international business schools. Just like Sofia and Ciara, the main female characters of my first two romance books, I speak several languages.

 

Since publishing my first book, I’ve been blessed with an insanely awesome group of faithful readers. I love those ladies so much. Their passion for my books makes the very, very long hours rewarding.

Release blitz - The game by Vi Keeland




Title: The Game
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 16, 2023


BLURB

It started out like any other Tuesday.

I spent twelve hours writing algorithms for one of the largest companies in the world and then came home to work on a pet project of mine—feeding facts about the men I knew into a formula to find my perfect match before my twenties came barreling to a close.

But then a man knocked on my door and handed me some papers that turned my life upside down.

Apparently, a father I never knew existed had left me something in his will. That something turned out to be part ownership in a professional football team.

Next thing I knew, I was learning a sport I knew nothing about by spending time with the team’s quarterback who was out with an injury, a man who my formula would definitely determine was all wrong for me.

Christian Knox was too handsome and confident for his own good and could have any woman he wanted. Only lately the only woman he seemed to want was me.

But there was no way I was getting involved when I was now his boss, even if he was insanely gorgeous and had the dirtiest mouth I’d ever come across.

It would be wrong, wouldn’t it?

Probably. But you know what they say about things that are wrong...sometimes they feel so right.

Cover reveal - When sinners hate by Hart De Lune

 



**Cover Reveal**

When Sinners Hate by Hart De Lune

Blurb

It's easy to think you know hate.

Especially when you're set on revenge.

Men are all the same, and getting them to bend to my will has never been a challenge. I'd just break whichever Cortez brother I had to marry and let him feel my wrath, because this was my chance to finally prove myself to my father.


That was the plan. But I knew nothing of hate before I met him.

He was a monster hiding in plain sight, wearing fine, cut cloth and pouring champagne. And after that day, he broke me.

Abel Cortez. Menacing. Possessive. Cruel.

My enemy.

My husband.


Note: The House Of Skin Series deals with themes some may be uncomfortable with. These are bad men who make no apologies for their particular trade.

Release date - 27th February 2023

Excerpt reveal - The game by Vi Keeland




Title: The Game
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 16, 2023


Take a sneak peek of THE GAME. 
You know you want to...


I tilted my head. “Can I ask you something?”
He shrugged. “Sure.”
“Why are you here?”
“You mean at the Bruins?”
I shook my head. “No, here with me at this moment. You must have plenty of other things you could be doing right now that are more fun than listening to my drivel.”
“Maybe I like drivel.”
I snort-laughed. “No one likes drivel.”
He smiled, and his eyes dropped to my lips for a fraction of a second. “Maybe I like you.”
I shifted in my seat to face him. “Why?”
Christian shrugged again. “I don’t know. I think you’re interesting.”
My eyes narrowed. “What about me is interesting?”
“You’re a billionaire who lives in a rent-controlled apartment over a fruit stand and tried to give the team you inherited to your grandfather. What’s not interesting about you? Given your situation, most people I know would live in a penthouse by now and take car services, not walk twenty minutes to the stadium every day after getting off the train.”
I raised an eyebrow, and a grin spread across Christian’s face.
“Plus, you’re hot.”
That last part made me smile. “And technically, I’m your boss.”
His grin widened. “That makes you even hotter.”
I chuckled. “Tell me about yourself, Christian. I feel like you know so much about me, but I don’t know anything about you, other than your stats, of course.”
“What do you want to know?”
“Do you have a girlfriend?”
“You think I’m hot too, don’t you?”
I laughed. “Just answer the question, Knox. Something tells me your ego gets stroked enough.”
“Yes, ma’am.” He shook his head. “No girlfriend.”
I tapped my lip with my pointer. “What do you do in the offseason?”
“Recover. Let my body heal. Sleep. Fish. I have a cabin on a lake up in Maine. Spend time with friends. Travel. Keep up with my training.”
“That sounds so…normal.”
“The season is anything but normal when you play in the NFL. It’s tough on the body and mind. You’re on the road all the time, the media follows your ass around, women hand you underwear with their numbers written on them and sneak into your hotel room. So normal is good.”
My face wrinkled. “Women give you their underwear?”
Christian smiled. “Any other questions?”
“Am I demented if I’m curious to know whether the underwear are clean or not?”
He laughed. “Maybe. But I like the way you think.”

Excited? We are too!

Release blitz - Home sweet home by Lacey Black




Title: Home Sweet Home
Series: Burgers and Brew Crüe #6
Author: Lacey Black
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 10, 2023


BLURB

Leo

Everyone has a past they’re trying to outrun, myself included. My time in the military left me with scars, both physically and emotionally, which is why I keep to myself. Since returning home to Stewart Grove, I work a lot so I have little time to think. To remember. I’m just content to make it through the day.

Then I meet Kallie Carpenter.

I am drawn to the sexy bartender in a way I’ve never experienced, and despite knowing I should stay away, I can’t. Kallie calls to the very depths of my soul, every broken piece of it.

I hope I don’t destroy us both.

Kallie

Taking care of my injured dad and his horse ranch, as well as working at the local bar doesn’t leave me much time for a social life. Between home and Burgers and Brew, I keep myself plenty busy, despite my dad’s insistence I give dating another try. It’s not that I wouldn’t mind it, I just barely have any time to myself, let alone making room for another.

Then I find Leo Martinez sitting at the end of the bar.

He’s guarded and a little rough around the edges, but I can’t stay away. There’s a darkness in his eyes that speaks of pain, yet I only see the amazing man he tries to hide from the world.

I pray he lets me in.

Sterling

It’s always been her, and I just never realized. Now that I’m looking at her that way, I can’t unsee it… and I don’t want to. Alyssa has been my best friend since kindergarten, and these intense new feelings could cost me our friendship.

She’s the one I share everything with, good or bad. It makes sense to share my life with her. But I can’t risk losing the only woman I’ve ever loved, which will happen if she doesn’t feel the same.

Alyssa is loyal and kind and takes my breath away. I just wish it hadn’t taken me so long to figure out what’s been right in front of me.

Alyssa

Falling for my best friend is easy, but keeping it to myself while figuring out what to do about it is the hard part. Because in a small town, everyone knows everyone… and their business.

Sterling is the perfect guy—handsome, with a heart of gold and a protective streak. I know he’ll do anything for me… except maybe admit he feels the same way I do.

So, I’m stuck in limbo and am in love with my best friend. Just when I work up the nerve to finally tell him how I feel, everything changes with a confession and two words: stay tonight.
