Author: Ker Dukey

Tropes: Enemies to Lovers/Revenge
Re-release Date: October 25, 2024


BLURB

On the eve of her wedding, Rogue learns darkness is always waiting to snuff out the light and happily-ever-afters aren’t fated for girls like her.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way.
I came to the Kings of Sin MC for revenge—to make them pay for their sins in blood.
I didn’t account for him. The vice president, Callan “Pain” Cox, is darkness and depravity
wrapped in a beautiful, compelling package.
And I’ve become addicted.
I need to hate him.
I should hate him.
But it’s hard to hate someone when you’re fighting every part of yourself not to fall in love with them.
The lines are blurring, and I forget whose side I’m on.
When the world around me erupts into chaos, I must decide where I belong. Better yet—who I belong with.
Because when Callan finds out who I am, it will be my sins paid for in blood.

(This title ends on a cliffhanger)

#BookReview: Murder on Demand by Al Roker & Mark Costello



Murder on Demand , the new book in the delightful Morning Show Mysteries series, finds Billy Blessing investigating a suspicious boating accident in Long Island. Ten years have passed since Billy Blessing's adventure in Chicago, and a lot has changed. With the advances in television -- the vanishing cable news and the flood of streaming channels entering the market -- Billy found himself out of a job. Oh, and his restaurant had a fire (maybe suspicious? Billy does have enemies ... ), but the insurance won't cover a rebuild. So Billy is reinventing himself down in North Fork Long Island, where on a clear day you can see the Hamptons across the bay. The pace of life is slower -- and more affordable -- and he's been enjoying his new job as a chef in Greenport. That is, until a young woman walks into the restaurant talking about murder. Her father's boat washed up down the coast, but the man himself is nowhere to be found. The police are calling it an accident, but she thinks it's more, and would Billy, maybe, look into it? Nice and quiet since, well any other way might not be safe. Billy is back in another hilarious, suspenseful, and delectable murder mystery perfect for new and old fans alike.

Oh, oh, the mistletoe, hung where I did NOT see.
My brother’s friend waits for me and gets down on one knee—What is happening?

Somebody stop it, please!
Oh, those dreamy blue eyes batting at me, and all the words he dares to say.
This is bad.
Like really, really bad.
We’re now planning a wedding day.
But it’s all for a good reason, not love.
Oh, cough, cough, let’s not bust out the L-word.
It’s purely business.
It is a solid plan until it isn’t.
So maybe I love him, but we agreed not to do that . . . whoops!

Let’s Not and Sleigh We Did is a fake marriage of convenience, brother’s best friend, just-kisses-but-all-the-swoons romcom. Oh, yeah, there’s a fluffy cow too!

Piper Griffiths wants one thing in life: To become a Consul, a keeper of the peace between humans and daemons. There are three obstacles in her way.

The first is Lyre. Incubus. Hotter than hell and with a wicked streak to match. His greatest mission in life is to annoy the crap out of her, but he isn’t as harmless as he seems. The second is Ash. Draconian. Powerful. Dangerous. He knows too much and reveals nothing. Also, disturbingly attractive — and scary. Did she mention scary?

The third is the Sahar Stone. Top secret magical weapon of mass destruction. Previously hidden in her Consulate until thieves broke in, went on a murder spree, and disappeared with the weapon.

And they left Piper to take the fall for their crimes.

Now she’s on the run, her dreams of becoming a Consul shattered and every daemon in the city gunning to kill her. She’s dead on her own, but there’s no one she can trust — no one except two entirely untrustworthy daemons … See problems one and two.


#BookReview: Hypnotized by Love by Sariah Wilson



The power of suggestion does wonders for the heart in an absolutely captivating romantic comedy by Sariah Wilson, the bestselling author of The Chemistry of Love.

Hypnotist Savannah Sinclair is known for helping clients overcome their deep-rooted issues, from anxiety to addiction. But her nontraditional approach also attracts plenty of skeptics—including her high school nemesis and rival, Mason Beckett, who just so happens to be the boy who broke her heart.

Mason’s life hasn’t gone according to plan. His latest novel was a flop, and the only gig he can land is writing a scathing exposé of his hometown hypnotist, Savannah. But in order to write an authentic article, he has to be a willing participant. Hypnosis is the last thing he he’s shedding his negative nature and opening himself up to new experiences…and when a fire alarm interrupts their session, Mason walks out into the real world entranced and sporting a sunny disposition and a tendency to say yes.

Hypnotized Mason is fearless, revealing things he’s never told a soul, acting completely out of character, and leading Savannah on a frantic chase to keep him safe. He likes his new self. The problem is, so does Savannah. She can’t fall in love with a man who’s in a trance, but can she keep him still long enough to get him to snap out of it?

Barrie:

I am determined to make my best friend’s wedding weekend perfect. That includes editing the best man’s speech and making sure he doesn’t drink too much.
Except, he’s the worst kind of grump with a capital G.
Not only that but when this perfect wedding unravels, I find myself the object of his wrath.
He blames me.
So I run.
And I’m wearing the wedding dress. (Don’t ask.)
As I hide out in a small town, following my dreams, I stumble upon a decades-old murder mystery.
Turns out texting the grump might be my only lifeline. And I’m definitely not flirt-texting. Nope. Not me.
Because falling for a grump can only lead to a broken heart.
Right?

Miles:

For the record, I am not a grump.
It’s not me. It’s them.
It’s women.
I’m looking forward to the wedding this weekend. My best friend is getting married.
And the maid of honor texts me.
Not just once.
Oh, no, because that would be much too sensible. Nope. Try a dozen. It felt like a hundred.
I can tell by a glance at the texts that she’s one of those micro-managing, in your business, thinks-she-knows-everything type of woman.
Forget it.
I don’t want her number. I don’t want coffee. I don’t want a date.
I don’t want a single conversation.
Okay, fine. I’m a grump.
But can you blame me?

How to Solve a Murder with a Grump is a full-length hilarious romantic mystery with a swoony, heart-thumping, happily-ever-after kind of ending complete with glitter bombs, snapping turtles (imaginary or not), a decades-old murder, and grand romantic gestures.

Why Pain and Suffering Are Our Greatest Teachers

 

Self-Help

Publisher: Mindstir Media



Have you ever questioned the importance behind the pain, suffering, and desperation we feel in life? Often times, it's easy for us to lose ourselves in the moment and not see the big picture of things. Yes, pain is uncomfortable, suffering is horrible, and desperation makes us feel like we're losing ourselves before we've had the opportunity to find ourselves. Often times, these emotions have so much they can teach us, yet we avoid them because we don't want to experience any kind of suffering in our lives.

In Why We Fall, I take you through a journey to uncover the truth behind the importance of these emotions in our lives. I walk you through the importance of learning to understand them and how to find the best way to cope with them. It's not an easy journey, but once you grasp the concepts and ideas that we'll discuss in the pages of this book, you'll find that living a fulfilling life and one that you feel satisfied with, has never been easier.
