Penelope Ward releases the cover for her new book ‘The Crush’

  Title: The Crush Author: Penelope Ward Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance Cover Design: Letitia Hasser, RBA Designs Photo: Harol Baez Model: Jeremy Santucci Release Date: February 22, 2021 BLURB From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone, second-chance story of forbidden love…  It’s natural to want the one you can’t have. And for as long as I could remember, I’d secretly wanted my brother’s best friend, Jace.  He was six years older and always treated me like the sister he never had.  Fast forward a decade.  We were all in our twenties now. Jace had moved in with my brother, Nathan, and me to help us make ends meet after our parents died.  It was just the three of us—an odd family dynamic.  Living under our roof, Jace was as bossy and protective as ever.  But he certainly didn’t look at me like a sister anymore. That was what made things so complicated.  I was pretty much hot and bothered t...

Review: 'Every Breath' by Nicholas Sparks - story of second chances and if you are willing to take them

  Format Available : e-book, hard cover, paperback, audiobook Format Read : Audiobook by Sean Cameron Michael and Vanessa Johansson Goodreads Link : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38212843-every-breath Review Tru finds himself in North Carolina meeting his father for the first time, leaving behind his life in Zimbabwe. He runs into Hope and they have an instant connection. They know that they want to be with each other, but circumstances force them apart. Years later, they are given a second chance and they have to decide if they are going to be able to take it. I listened to this book as an audio book so the first part will be about that. then the rest will be about the rest of the book.  It took some time for me to get use Sean Cameron Michael who is the voice of Tru. The accent was hard to understand sometimes but I appreciate the dedication to wanting to be authentic. Vanessa Johansson was great for Hope. I think she did a better job at showing emotions for the c...

Marvel Studios announces plan for Disney+ and the next phase

  Marvel has been in the headlines today not only releasing the schedule for their next phase, but also releasing first looks at some of their new shows. Today, they released a trailer for The Falcon and Winter Soldier, Loki, What if?, and Ms. Marvel. Hailee Steinfeld makes her first appearance as Kate Bishop in the first still released from Hawkeye.  Let's start at the top. The Falcon and Winter Soldier is probably one of the most anticipated shows coming to Disney+. It starts Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie. They are taking over the role of Captain America (which makes sense because he does the work of two heroes)  The show is set to come out in March 2021. It is about time that Loki is the star of his own story. He is the villain that we all love and one that we all wish would win once in a while (if you need a reason why, watch the second Thor). It looks like Loki is going to be on the, dare I say, good side with this miniseries on Disney+. There is no release tim...

I might be one of the older players on the Arizona Vengeance, but I like to think that also makes me one of the wisest. Or at least I used to. Turns out, I’ve been a bit selfish. I’ve been married to hockey and my team for years, which hasn’t left much time for my actual wife, Ella. Now I’m juggling a separation I never wanted, the pressure of being a single dad to our teenage daughter, and the career I sacrificed it all for. While my game on the ice might be on fire, the game in my personal life i s clearly lacking, as evidenced by the fact I just saw my wife on a date with another man. If I have any hope of saving the family I love, I need to re - prioritize, and fast. So it’s time for me to get back to fundamentals, just like I did when I learned ho w to play hockey. I’ve never backed down from a challenge, and romancing my wi...

Check out the new cover for K. Bromberg's latest book 'Hard to Hold'

  The contract with Major League Soccer was supposed to help repair my damaged reputation. Then I discovered that I’d made a deal with the devil: the player I’m supposed to recruit is none other than the bad boy, star Premier League footballer, Rush McKenzie. British. Tattooed. Sexy. A man currently at the center of a huge scandal. The goal? To convince him to stay in the States. But what’s wrong with a little fun in the meantime? No strings. No sweet nothings. Just a way to pass the time while we’re both struggling to prove our true selves to the world. If someone found out our relationship was anything more than professional, it would only serve to prove all our critics right. *** I never should have agreed to take the fall. But I did and I’m a man of my word. Even if it means risking everything I’ve worked for. The only bright side is Lennox Kincade. Gorgeous. Defiant. Rumor-tainted. Totally off-limits. Sharing a house with the gorgeous sports agent should have been a fun distra...

Sawyer Bennett's latest book 'Code Name: Rook' is now available

  Code Name: Rook (Jameson Force Security, Book #6) Sawyer Bennett Release Date: October 27, 2020 Synopsis: Being a highly skilled operative for a company like Jameson Force Security is exhilarating and important work…until it comes time to date. I like to keep my profession under wraps for a number of reasons. Some of what we do is top secret, most of what we do is dangerous, and more than one woman has tried to latch onto me because she was more enamored with what I do than who Cage Murdock really is. And since I’m more of a ‘here for the night’ than a ‘here for forever’ kind of guy, what’s the harm in a little white lie about my job? My harmless deceit has never failed me. Until now. Because I met the most amazing woman and did the unthinkable. I married her. And now my beautiful, unsuspecting, probably-going-to-leave-my-sorry-behind-when-she-finds-out-the-truth wife doesn’t know that I’m not a used car salesman like I told her when we met. As it typically does with lies,...

Review - 'King of the Causeway' by TM Frazier: a quick read that touches on some very real issues

 In this quick story, someone is threatening to take over King's territory and he will not stand for it. Meanwhile, Ray is about to burst and she is struggling with her own demon and whether or not to let King in. The story is a quick look into the lives that we have all come to know and love. The story touches on  a very real issue and i would have liked to have seen this explored a bit more. King, of course, steals the show as the alpha male that we all know that he can be. He does not stand for anyone or anything threatening his family. I liked how he's changed from the first book and how he still has darkness in him, but has lightened since he met Ray. Preppy is of course front and center and once again proves why he is a fan favorite. He understands Ray in a way that King doesn't (much to his dismay) and the way that he is with her is very brotherly. I love when authors show that males/females can be friends and NOT have them just fall in love with one another. Yes, it...
