Jingle Bear

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by TK Lawyer

Is the woman to jingle Gabe’s interest his best friend?

Of all the people in Gabe’s life, Arabelle meant the most.
Chasing her across the playground, he used to call her Belly, and pull her pigtails.
They became best friends, but that was long ago.

He holds a secret not even she knows.

Sweet, caring, and different, Gabe did things, said things that left Arabelle confused and crossed the unspoken line beyond friendship.
Yet, Arabelle crossed that line, long ago, getting her heart stomped.

She wasn’t going through that again.

Still, there is something about Gabe she cannot resist.
Will his secret undo their special friendship, or will she realize Gabe is that one man worth fighting for?

The Blues of Atlantis

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Patricia Elliott

For as long as there have been men, there have been myths. And as long as there have been myths, there have been dreamers. Dreamers who wonder what else is out there.

Nerina Winters is no different. She lives a fantasy life as a mermaid, putting on daily shows at the aquarium. Until one day, she finds herself sitting in the doctor’s office. The revelation of what’s ailing her reveals a family secret she isn’t supposed to know about until her thirtieth birthday.

But it’s too late. The secret is out. Now she’s on the run with a husband she no longer trusts, who harbors a secret of his own. Her husband quickly learns that secrets are perilous by nature.

Some swear by them.

Some die from them.

But who will live, and who will die?

And will they live long enough to find out?

Excerpt

“Wait. How did you get a copy of it when it’s not available?”

“I signed up for her- what do you call it- ARC team and got a copy for free for my honest review.”

“Oh lord… Is it bad? Tell me, please.”

She snorted. “She has you in all kinds of sordid scenes, if you know what I mean.”

He went silent. What in the hell did that mean? Was the book an erotic romance? Good gods! Did she place him in precarious situations? Granted it was pure fiction so why should he care. Yet, the fact that his mom read Off Limits- the only book, so far, that had his half-naked body plastered all over the cover- He slapped the palm of his right hand against his forehead, and uttered a strained sigh. Holy shit. This was embarrassing.

“Mom, remember I was placed on the cover after the book was written.”

“Yeah but don’t authors search for a type of man that resembles the character they’re writing about?”

She had a point- a very bad one- but still, a point.

He peered over at the back of the door, concerned with the length of time that had passed, and wondering what his temporary roommate was up to. He didn’t know her, at all, solely bringing her to his home, for the night, to engage in carnal pleasures. He hoped she wasn’t taking the opportunity to steal from him. He’d watched too many movies where that happened with strangers. He decided to cut the conversation short so he could find out what was going on back in the bedroom. “Look, I don’t know what she wrote but I have to get back to what I was doing before. I’ll call you, later.”

“Oh, you’re not curious? I can tell you about one scene that peaked my interest.”

He knew his mom liked reading explicit sex scenes, but he wasn’t really interested in hearing any of them. He’d seen enough hard-bodied men, and soft, enraptured women romantically intertwined across the covers of her books adorning the coffee table of their old house when he was growing up. It had him both curious and embarrassed at the same time as his friends ventured over. He imagined what she had read in Natalie’s apparent scathing book.

“I’ll just say this. It has you, and your girlfriend in an interesting position over your desk.”

He slapped a hand across his eyes, covering them, completely. Then, he groaned.
“Okay, mom. Well, I gotta go now. I love you.” He ended the call before she had a chance to reply.

Even in Madness

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

Our world is a depressing place sometimes. Just watch the news.

Ah, but in another world …!

In another world, a werewolf might go on the hunt for a human mate. In another world, the stars might shower us with sexy cowboys. Perhaps a pair of serial killers will fall madly in love, or a crumbling manor reveal itself as the gateway to another reality. Perhaps a fallen ‘goddess’ will seek refuge in the mortal world, or maybe a mysterious redhead will save her people from certain doom. Hell, Frankenstein’s monster might even re-emerge from the shadows!

Welcome to a kaleidoscopic collection of tales by the bestselling, award-winning author Virginia Wallace. For even in madness there is often an element of love, and love itself would soon become meaningless without the necessary contrast of horror …

The Unwanteds

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by TK Lawyer

They are the rejected. The ignored. The barely tolerated.
They are the ones no one wants to talk about.
The Unwanteds.

These are the stories of six of them.

Rose enjoyed her co-worker’s company. Yet, one night when she witnesses something startling, she wonders if she ever really knew him, at all.
Daphne’s trip to the local bar turns into an amazing, unforgettable night with a stranger. Can she give him more than one night?
Pietro was hired to be the janitor. Yet, when he takes off with the Alpha’s betrothed to save her from a fated, loveless marriage, will he survive the pack’s vengeance?
Hopper was, only, searching for his next meal. He never expected a reunion with a girl from his past. A girl who has matured in ways that leave him wanting.
Cameron’s next-door neighbor proves to be exactly what he is searching for. Yet, there is one major problem. A respected, powerful shape shifter, living next door, who also has his eyes on her.
After losing her job of fifteen years, Jaela wants nothing more than one night of sheer, unadulterated bliss. Yet, her escort is no ordinary man and Jaela plans to win him. The only problem is, she doesn’t know his name.

Bounce Trilogy book 1

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by SK White

BOUNCE …into the unknown by S.K. White.

What if you found yourself in a different reality… same face, but different you? Whitney Ann Rhodes bounces into the alternate realities of Whit and Annie. Can she navigate Whit’s complicated and volatile life or survive Annie’s dystopian world living under the rule of a global authoritarian leader and his military regime? Will she resist or comply? Afterward, can Whitney return to her world and face what lies ahead?

EXCERPT: from Whitney’s first bounce: Whit’s World:

Jay pulled his chair over next to her. “You’ll have to explain each one to me in full detail. And you know what this means, don’t you?” He lifted her long dark hair and put it to the side over her shoulder and whispered, “We’ll just have to spend a lot more time together alone. He spotted the head of a dragon draped in roses that were left exposed from the scooped back of her sleeveless little black dress. Jay slowly leaned down and kissed the back of her neck. Shivers raced down Whitney’s back and she closed her eyes. He put his lips up to her ear. “I like your dragon. I would like to see the whole thing.”

She opened her eyes and turned to look at him. She bit the inside of her lip and chewed nervously on the side. He flashed the edges of his bright white teeth and gazed into her eyes. “Stay with me tonight?”

Whitney scraped the edge of her teeth against her bottom lip. “I don’t think I’m ready for that yet.” She inhaled and slowly released her breath. “I’m still fresh from a nasty break-up.”

He sat back in his chair. “Take all the time you need. You’re worth waiting for.”

Fury

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Anna Hackett

Dante is a grey character… sort of. He protects his own. He’s willing to take on the seedier side of New Orleans including drug dealers and organized crime. He had a rough childhood and now he keeps everyone but his four brothers at arm’s length. Until Mila walks in looking for a job. Mila is hiding. She keeps everyone at a distance and keeps to herself but Dante noticed her and wants her. She’s his employee so she’s off limits. At least until people start trying to kill her. Then Dante’s all over making sure she’s safe.

Hackett has created some shady brothers. They can get their hands dirty but fall on the right side of the line of right and wrong. This story is well paced and written. The characters are well developed and the story is believable. There’s more romance, a bit of alpha dominance, and a lot of heat. I gobbled this one up and enjoyed it thoroughly. I like how balanced Hackett made her characters. I like how she allowed Dante to be vulnerable but still alpha male. I like how she made Mila at risk but strong enough to fight her way out of things.

The Hero She Craves

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Anna Hackett

This was a 3.5 for me edging towards a 4 so I’m leaning into the 4. Ren and Halle have known each other for years. On her 20th birthday they shared a kiss and then Ren disappeared. The problem? Halle’s dad is Ren’s best friend. So she’s off limits. Until she isn’t.

This story has heat and danger. It’s got mystery and action. The storyline is good. But I felt like Hackett leaned on the characters knowing each other too much. I, as a reader, don’t know the characters and I wanted more character development.

Excellent writing and story telling but I wanted more in the way of knowing the characters. She’s 23 and he’s in his 30s I think. I’m not sure it was ever mentioned about his age but he was older.

It was a good story. Solid and worth reading. I’m not sure I’ll revisit it but I enjoyed it and didn’t want to be bothered with other things while I read it.

Stone

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Anna Hackett

Hackett is brilliant with her military series. She creates action filled dynamic stories which seem plausible even as they are out there.

Stone or Knox is the new guy in New York. His first day on the job and he’s kissed one of his co-workers sister. He wants her but the code is not to mess with family. So he steps back… at least until her life is in danger and then he does everything in his power to keep her alive.

Magnolia is bored with men but she wants what her best friend and half brother have – love, marriage and a baby. When she meets Knox, she boldly tells him she is interested and wants to spend more time with him.

This story is fast paced and a quick read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the dynamic. I wanted more – but that’s because of how well Hackett writes and develops her story.

This was a great addition to the Sentinel Security series!

Lola and Her Millionaires Part Two

by eileentroemel, posted in Book Tour

by Kathryn Moon

I am not allowed to read Moon’s books after 10 pm at night. I stayed up until 4 am reading the conclusion to this duology.

Moon does an amazing job connecting Lola to her pack. She develops individual relationships among all seven members. The men she developed are believable and unique. None of them seem like carbon copies. The story and world is engaging and unique. Her intimate scenes are steamy, intimate and delightfully different.

I’ll be diving into her back catalog to discover more of her stories.
