BLURB

I promised to love.
I swore to obey.
I was compelled to betray.

Married to my college sweetheart, I thought I knew my path. We were forging our perfect future, everything falling into place. Until the man I promised my life to changed into a cruel, cold shadow of the man I loved.

With everything I thought I knew in tatters, I find myself in a bar, face to face with a sexy stranger who unlocks things about myself I’d long forgotten.

Just one night. Wild and passionate. A balm for my bruised and lonely heart. Now I can’t stop thinking about him, wishing I knew the name of the man who has set me free and stolen my heart.

But happiness is never easy. Now caught between a twisted and dangerous past that won’t let me go, and the hope for a future that once seemed so far out of my reach. I face the ultimate price as I’m left fighting for everything I want.

Love that will last a lifetime.

Duty or desire, what would you choose?

All she wants is his surrender.

Samara

I’m more like my brother than anyone knows.
I knew who was meant to be mine as soon as I was old enough to understand what the definition of “want” was.
Some would say it is an obsession.
They may even whisper that I am…crazy.
But when I set my mind on something, I don’t stop until I have it.
And what I want is him.
Elias Reid.
No one knows how twisted my mind has turned for him.
How tangled up my heart has gotten over the older, sexy biker.
My plans are in place.
Every step precisely executed.
I have been playing the long game, and now, he is within my grasp.
The life we are meant to have together is so close.
I just need him to surrender to the inevitable.

#CoverReveal: Fairy Tales of the Magicorum #1-3 by @CB_Bauer @XpressoTours



Fairy Tales of the Magicorum #1-3
Christina Bauer
Genres: Paranormal, Young Adult

“Must read YA paranormal romance!” – USA Today

Seventeen-year-old Bryar Rose has a problem. She’s descended from one of the three magical races—shifters, fairies, or witches. That makes her one of the Magicorum, and Magicorum always follow a fairy tale life template. In Bryar’s case, that template should be Sleeping Beauty.

Should being the key word.

Trouble is, Bryar is nowhere near the sleeping beauty life template. Not even close. She doesn’t like birds or woodland creatures. She can’t sing. And she certainly can’t stand Prince Philpot, the so-called “His Highness of Hedge Funds” that her aunties want her to marry. Even worse, Bryar’s having recurring dreams of a bad boy hottie and is obsessed with finding papyri from ancient Egypt. What’s up with that?

All Bryar wants is to attend a regular high school with normal humans and forget all about shifters, fairies, witches, and the curse that Colonel Mallory the Magnificent placed on her. And she might be able to do just that–if only she can just keep her head down until her eighteenth birthday when the spell that’s ruined her life goes buh-bye.

But that plan gets turned upside down when Bryar Rose meets Knox, the bad boy who’s literally from her dreams. Knox is a powerful werewolf, and his presence in her life changes everything, and not just because he makes her knees turn into Jell-O. If Bryar can’t figure out who—or what—she really is, it might cost both her and Knox their lives… as well as jeopardize the very nature of magic itself.

#BookReview: The Curse of Penryth Hall by @JessL_Armstrong @MinotaurBooks






Synopsis: An atmospheric gothic mystery that beautifully brings the ancient Cornish countryside to life, Armstrong introduces heroine Ruby Vaughn in her Minotaur Books & Mystery Writers of America First Crime Novel Award-winning debut, The Curse of Penryth Hall.

After the Great War, American heiress Ruby Vaughn made a life for herself running a rare bookstore alongside her octogenarian employer and house mate in Exeter. She’s always avoided dwelling on the past, even before the war, but it always has a way of finding her. When Ruby is forced to deliver a box of books to a folk healer living deep in the Cornish countryside, she is brought back to the one place she swore she’d never return. A more sensible soul would have delivered the package and left without rehashing old wounds. But no one has ever accused Ruby of being sensible. Thus begins her visit to Penryth Hall.

A foreboding fortress, Penryth Hall is home to Ruby’s once dearest friend, Tamsyn, and her husband, Sir Edward Chenowyth. It’s an unsettling place, and after a more unsettling evening, Ruby is eager to depart. But her plans change when Penryth’s bells ring for the first time in thirty years. Edward is dead; he met a gruesome end in the orchard, and with his death brings whispers of a returned curse. It also brings Ruan Kivell, the person whose books brought her to Cornwall, the one the locals call a Pellar, the man they believe can break the curse. Ruby doesn’t believe in curses—or Pellars—but this is Cornwall and to these villagers the curse is anything but lore, and they believe it will soon claim its next victim: Tamsyn.

To protect her friend, Ruby must work alongside the Pellar to find out what really happened in the orchard that night.
