Blog Tour & REVIEW : #1 Lie by T. Gephart @InkslingerPR @TinaGephart.




#1 LIE by T. Gephart just went LIVE!

PURCHASE: 

BLURB: 

Working in Hollywood meant Jessica Dawson was used to lying. As an assistant to one of the biggest agents in town, biting her tongue and spewing out sugarcoated untruths were an almost daily occurrence. But fabricating alternate realities never spilled into her personal life, until three months ago when she told the biggest lie of all.

While her dear gran lay on her deathbed, Jessica mentioned she’d met her soul mate. It had been Gran’s last wish to see all her grandkids settled down before she went to see Jesus. And as the only one still single, Jessica didn’t have the heart to disappoint her.

No one expected Gran to make a miraculous recovery.

Now, Gran was expecting to meet Jessica’s perfect man at her cousin’s wedding, which meant she needed to find a perfect man fast. Hiring a professional was the only solution.

Enter Dave Larsson, younger brother to one of Hollywood’s elite.

Sexy, funny and just as smoldering hot as his super-famous sibling—he had talent and charm to spare. But most importantly, he was affordable and available.

All she needed to do was haul Dave home, have him meet Gran and the family, then shortly after the wedding, “break up” with him.

It was either that, or admit to her #1 Lie.

Only thing she didn’t plan on was the bigger lie she would need to tell herself when it was time to let him go.

Book Review : The Soldier Prince by Aarti V Raman (Book 1 Royals of Stellangård) @rt_writes

  • Publisher: Karou Publishing (22 May 2018)
  • Sold by: Amazon Asia-Pacific Holdings Private Limited
  • SeriesRoyals of Stellangård

The Soldier Prince...
Alexander ‘Iceman’ Heinrickson was born a prince.
The spare heir to a European principality whose future was set in stone.
Until circumstances forced him to abandon his wealthy lifestyle and royal heritage. He chose to become a soldier.
After years of seeing needless combat, he works construction in New York city. And craves a normal life.
Going back home is not an option for him.
But neither is leaving a brave damsel in danger.

...And The Commoner
Sasha Ray is an aspiring teacher and a soft touch waitress.
Her life is normal. Boring even.
She also has a massive crush on the newest Tall, Blond, and Handsome who frequents the New York deli where she works.
What she doesn’t know about the stranger called Iceman might get her killed. Or worse.
For one, he turns out to be a lethally capable soldier.
For another, he is the secret Prince of Stellangård, who is not used to the word no.
So, when Alexander sweeps her off on a private jet to his castle nestled in the Swiss Alps for her own protection, she has no choice but to go with him.
Falling for a tortured hero like Prince Alexander might be the biggest mistake of her life.
But Sasha knows some mistakes are worth risking your heart for.
With an unknown enemy closing in, Sasha and Alexander need to decide if happily ever after is just a fairy tale. Or can a Prince and a commoner find true love in the middle of danger?

Meet the Royals of Stellangård - Alexander, Helena, and Michael - burdened by their heritage, freed by love, in three standalone novels of romantic suspense and action. 


So I was asked to review this book by the author herself after finding me on Kit Rocha's diverse reads reviewers list on twitter. I am so happy she reached out because I think Aarti may be a new favorite of mine if all her reads hold as much steam and action as The Soldier Prince does.


Sasha Ray is a confident and bad-ass female lead that is 3rd generation Indian American.She's an aspiring teacher and novelist and she hails from the Bronx. She is working as a waitress when it is up to her to save the silent good Samaritan construction working hottie that comes to the diner on a regular.

This first action scene plays out like a sequence from The Punisher. SO FUCKING GOOOOOD.

It is then revealed that dude is a goddamn Prince.


                                              🎶Royalty Royalty Royalty!🎶



Alexander sweeps Sasha away too his homeland where he gets a warm welcome home,ya know with him being a Prince and a military soldier and a good looking S.O.B

His sister in law Daria def takes notice (she irritated me tbh).

Anyhow, moving on, Sasha and Alexander fight there serious attraction to each other and my god it is so perfect when it all comes together *pun pun* They are sexy and cute and sensual and I don't know if I'm talking about them or the goddamn library description. UGGGGH NERDGASM.

Of course things hit a snag and fall apart because backgrounds and all but Sasha remains a courageous beauty. No damsel in distress here. The close of this tale is really well done and swoony.

I'm very interested in Helena and Michael's stories because I enjoyed their moments very much.

Only CON I had was that I really wanted more of Sasha's Indian American upbringing. We get very little from the perspective of her parents and it felt so uneven because we get flooded with Alexander's bio and even side characters get a little more. Also, wouldn't have minded her on the cover in some way. 

Besides that I absolutely loved this.

BLOG TOUR : WILD RIDE COWBOY BY MAISEY YATES (@barclay_pr @maiseyyates)


In Wild Ride Cowboy, Alex Donnelly returns to Copper Ridge, Oregon to keep a promise, but the last thing he expects is to fall for his best friend's sister, Clara Campbell. Fans of Maisey Yates' Copper Ridge series will love this sweet, sexy romance releasing August 29th!

 
Title: Wild Ride Cowboy
Author: Maisey Yates
Publisher: Harlequin
Release Date: August 29, 2017
Series: Copper Ridge #9
Genre: Contemporary Romance
ISBN: 9780373803644

He's come back to Copper Ridge, Oregon, to keep a promise—even if it means losing his heart…

Putting down roots in Copper Ridge was never Alex Donnelly's intention. But if there's one thing the ex-military man knows, it's that life rarely unfolds as expected. If it did, his best friend and brother-in-arms would still be alive. And Alex wouldn't have inherited a ranch or responsibility for his late comrade's sister—a woman who, despite her inexperience, can bring tough-as-iron Alex to his knees.

Clara Campbell didn't ask for a hero to ride in and fix her ranch and her life. All she wants is the one thing stubborn, honorable Alex is reluctant to give: a chance to explore their intense chemistry. But Clara has a few lessons to teach him, too…about trusting his heart and his instincts, and letting love take him on the wildest adventure of all.

EXCERPT REVEAL : SIN by Emma Hart


 
SIN
A Vegas Nights Novel Book 1
By Emma Hart
Standalone
Release Day – July 18

Damien Fox lived up to his name. Cunning, sly, and dangerous, fifty percent of Vegas’ strip clubs were his.
Whatever he wanted, money, attention, women, he got.
And now he wanted to buy my bar, no matter the cost.
I wanted him to go to hell on a first-class ticket.
He played a dirty game, and I followed his rules. I let him think he would win.
Despite our differences, it was clear to see that we were no more than two broken hearts colliding in the darkness.
Closed off, sexy, and holding a pain that would crush a lesser man, he was the ultimate sin.
One I couldn’t deny myself, even though I knew better than to trust a fox...
(SIN is book one of the Vegas Nights series. Each book in this series is a standalone novel.)
