Her Highlander by Alice Wilde Tour & Giveaway


Three gorgeous shifters. A queen on the run. One thrilling Scottish adventure.

***SPOILERS – DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU’VE FINISHED BOOK ONE***
The king is dead, I’ve run away from my throne, and my new husband is hunting me down.
My name is Annalise, and I am a runaway queen. But I’m not abandoning my people.
I’ve just found out that I’m the supposed key to unleashing a dark magic upon the world…and I’ve learned this from my pet leopards nonetheless. I’d try to explain, but I don’t think that will make things any less confusing.
Now, I must journey to Scotland with three massive, and ridiculously beautiful, shifters in tow to try to convince Roan’s kin to help us defeat my husband. I have a lot to learn and long ways to go. I don’t know how I’m going to do it, but I am determined to make it with the help of Li, Ero…and Roan.
Roan.
My green-eyed leopard.
My redheaded lover.
My highlander.

About Alice Wilde

ALICE WILDE grew up with a love of reading and spent her teens writing and submitting her essays as fantasy stories, much to the annoyance, but often high marks, of her teachers. Now, she spends much of her days writing historical fantasy paranormal romances (filled with gorgeous men and, of course, magic) that she hopes will spark a flame in readers as much as they do in herself.
Alice is currently living with her cat in a bustling city she never sees much of, as she’s too busy dreaming up, writing down, and living in her next paranormal RH romance, though she generally finds enough time for a real life date or two… We all need a bit of inspiration now and again, right?

The Wrong Highland by Lynsay Sands Tour & Review


A laird’s daughter kidnaps a Highlander—and loses her heart… in New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands’ new historical romance

Lady Evina Maclean has heard much about Rory Buchanan’s skill as a healer. What she hasn’t heard is how good the brawny Highlander looks bathing in a waterfall. But Evina can’t afford the distraction, for her ailing father urgently needs care. Only when she’s rendered Buchanan unconscious and dragged him back to her family’s castle does the truth emerge—it’s not Rory she’s kidnapped but his brother Conran.
Other ladies try to ensnare Conran with flattery. Evina hits him over the head with the hilt of her sword to save her kin—and Conran likes the spirited redhead all the more for it. He’s learned enough from his brother to heal Evina’s father, but there are other dangers swirling around the Maclean clan. And while the beautiful, independent lady has sworn not to marry, this wrong Highlander may be just the right man for her.

Loved
I can't get enough of reading books by Lynsay Sands!!  I love her writing
This is about a woman mistaking one Buchanan brother for another.  Then things go crazy as only they do for the Buchanan clan.
Not one brother (or sister) can fall in love and get married without someone trying to kill them or their future spouse!  Which always makes for a great story.
Loved that Evina is so much like the Buchanan sister, Saidh.
Each character, from Evina's "clan" shows much growth through the story.  And then Tildy, the maid, gives Evina a beautiful, heart-filled talk.
I can't wait for more!!!

Release Blitz for Build: A Bad Boy Snowed In Romance by Gillian Archer, plus #Giveaway




Title: Build: A Bad Boy Snowed In Romance
Series: Burns Brothers #1
Author: Gillian Archer
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 29, 2019



Blurb

Welcome to Bad@ss Builds where the motorcycles are as sexy as the brothers building them.

Austin Burns:

I thought she wasn’t real the first time I saw her. To be fair I was a hungover mess when I woke up and looked into her gorgeous eyes. After getting the second worst news of my life—that my father would be paroled soon—I’d escaped to my buddy’s posh cabin near Lake Tahoe. Now the maid with the gorgeous eyes is snowed in with me, and I wonder if she might be a better distraction than the mountain of booze I’d planned on drinking. She’s curvy in all the right places, and the snow is falling faster.

Rachel Tannenbaum:

As a single mom, I don’t have time for men, especially irresponsible tattooed bad boys like my ex. But Austin is hot. And sexy. And stuck here in the cabin with me. I can’t say no to a fling with this bad boy, especially since Austin is so gorgeous and awkwardly sweet.


One night becomes two, and I don’t know if I can risk my heart—and my little boy’s—if Austin wants it to become more when we get through the snow and back to reality.

Excerpt

I’d just straightened up the pile of mats when a scraping sound caught my attention. Raising the blinds, I looked out the window and saw Rachel standing in the middle of the road, shovel in hand, pushing the snow into big piles. She’d got about ten feet of road cleared in addition to her car.
Did she really think she could plow the fucking road between here and the highway? It was miles of road!
“Son of a bitch.” I ran out of the room. Three steps later, I almost tripped over Blue in the hallway. He’d taken up a post between me and the doorway, almost like he couldn’t decide who he should be guarding. “Hey, boy. You okay?”
Blue sat up with a whine and swung his head toward the front door.
“Yeah, I think we gotta talk some sense in her. She can’t plow the fucking road all by herself. Come on.” I grabbed my coat next to the door and pulled it on over my naked chest. My shirt was balled up somewhere in Cole’s home gym. I shoved my bare feet into my boots next to the door and half-assedly laced them up. Blue whined next to me, urging me to hurry. I ripped open the door, and Blue bounded out, with me close on his heels.
“What the hell are you doing, woman!” I shouted before I met up with Rachel.
She glanced at me then bent down to pet Blue. “What does it look like?”
“It looks like you’re fucking insane. You do know there’s like five miles of road between us and the highway, right? Are you planning on plowing the whole fucking thing by hand?”
“I have to do something!” Rachel waved an agitated hand as she stood back up to face me. “I can’t just sit here and wait for someone to call or show up. I have people waiting on me—my family is counting on me.”
“You think I don’t know that? You think the same fucking thing isn’t happening to me right now? I was supposed to be at work today too. Our scariest fucking client is expecting a bike delivery today, and I’m not gonna be there to stand between him and my brother. That’s my job! That’s what I’ve done my whole life, and today I’m not gonna be there. I won’t be there to protect him.”
Rachel stared back at me with wide eyes, and her mouth opened and closed like a fish.
I sighed as some of my anger melted away at Rachel’s bewilderment.
I hadn’t meant to reveal so much. My shit was my shit. No one else needed to know what was really going on in my life—least of all a piece of ass I’d hooked up with for a night. I just had so much anger pent up. Booze hadn’t helped. Exercise hadn’t helped. Really the only thing that’d worked was when I had her naked and under me, but that’d never happen again.
I needed to get my shit under control.
“Look, I’m sorry, okay?” I reached over and gently took the snow shovel out of her hands. “We all have shit—that’s all I’m saying. Well, that, and there’s no way either of us is going to be able to dig our way out of this mess. There’s too much road between us and the highway. It’s dangerous. We’re better off waiting until the plow comes. I don’t know where the hell Cole’s business manager is, but he still hasn’t called me back. If you’d like, I can call around and see if I can find another service.”
Rachel bit her lip and looked down the long, snow-covered road, her brow wrinkled.
“I’ll even pay.”
Rachel’s eyes shot to mine. “It’s not the money that’s bothering me. Well, it is, ‘cause I can’t afford it, but I’m worried about the weather. There’s supposed to be another system moving in this afternoon. If we can’t get out of here by noon, I doubt you’ll find another outfit willing to come out in the middle of another storm. We could be trapped here overnight again.”
I nodded slowly. “I’ll get on the horn and see if we can get you home to your little boy sooner than later.”
“Thank you.”

Daphne Foliot has always known she’ll be married off to a man who, like her, descended from one of King Arthur’s fabled knights.

Heir to the thirteen treasures of Britain, Gideon Kersey vows to do anything to protect his family’s legacy from a secret society bent on exploiting the items for personal gain, including marry a woman he doesn’t love. Except she ignites a passion he was certain died with his first wife, and when the truth behind the Order’s objectives threatens everything Daphne knows, Gideon must fight to save her—and any future they hope to share.

Unraveling the Truth About Love by Addison Cole Tour & Giveaway


Unraveling the Truth About Love

Sweet with Heat: Weston Bradens #3
By: Addison Cole
Releasing Jan 23, 2019
World Literary Press

Blurb
Small-town overachiever Riley Banks has finally scored her big break–working in Manhattan as a fashion design assistant for her childhood crush, Josh Braden. She enters her new job hoping to make a name for herself and–just maybe–explore the romance that slipped through her fingers way back when.


Josh Braden has models at his beck and call, a staff that never says never, and an elegant clothing line for
the holiday season. When he hires Riley Banks, he expects her to learn the business from the ground up. But
the girl next door turns out to be much more than he remembered.

When Josh and Riley’s friendship heats up, every steamy kiss, and every passionate caress stirs a love they
cannot deny. But when Riley designs a wedding gown that would cause even the most jaded fashion editors
to swoon, Riley’s mentor accuses her of stealing the design.

Facing indisputable proof and the mistrust of her lover, Riley is not sure she can take the heat of life in the
fast lane of the fashion industry–and Josh is forced to choose between the woman he loves and the career he
adores.

Unraveling the Truth About Love is a Sweet with Heat novel and conveys all of the passion you’d expect to
find between two people in love without any graphic scenes or harsh language. If you’re looking for a more
explicit romance, pick up the steamy edition, Friendship on Fire, written by New York Times bestselling
author Melissa Foster. Addison Cole is Melissa’s sweet-romance pen name.

THE ART OF LOVING LACY - Releasing May 8th, 2019



EXCERPT

Riley Banks hurried down Thirty-Seventh Street in her red Catherine Malandrino dress and Giuseppe Zanotti leopard-print, calf-hair pumps. It was the week after Thanksgiving, and Manhattan was buzzing with the feverish zeal of the holidays.  Riley slowed her pace to catch her breath. Tomorrow I’ll find the courage to take the subway. Maybe. She tugged her coat tighter across her chest to ward off the chilly air and silently hoped that nobody would figure out that she’d purchased her outfit on Outnet.com, an online designer outlet store. She felt like such a hypocrite, heading to her first day at her new job as one of world-renowned designer Josh Braden’s assistants wearing discounted clothing. The thought turned her stomach—but not as much as showing up in her hometown jeans and cowgirl boots would have. She was a long way from Weston, Colorado, and she’d spent the last few weeks gathering discount designer clothes and practicing omitting “y’all” from her vocabulary.


She stood before the thick glass door of Josh Braden Designs and took a deep breath. The sign above the
door read, JBD. This is it. She closed her eyes for a split second to repeat the mantra she’d been playing in
her mind like a broken record for weeks: I’m educated, knowledgeable, and eager. I can do this.

A warm hand on her lower back pulled her from her thoughts.

“Have any trouble finding us?” Josh Braden stood beside her with a friendly smile and perfectly shorn, thick
dark hair. His black Armani suit fit his lean, muscular frame perfectly. A few years earlier, he’d been named
one of America’s Most Eligible Bachelors. Back then she hadn’t given the magazine cover a second thought.
He was in New York, and she was back in Colorado, so far removed from him that she’d still thought of him
as Josh Braden, the boy she’d had a crush on for too many years to count. Now, standing on the streets of
New York City beside the man whose name rivaled Vera Wang, she felt the air sucked from her lungs.

His deep voice sent a shiver right through her. Not only had she had the good fortune to be reconnected
with Josh when he was back home visiting his family, but during his visit, the two of them had also spent
a few days getting reacquainted. Riley hadn’t been sure if it was her crush going haywire or if there was
something more real blossoming between them, but those few days had each felt a little more intimate than
the last. And while their lips never touched and their bodies remained apart, she’d felt like they were always
one breath away from falling into each other’s arms.


Find out what happens as Josh and Riley unravel the truth about love.
