Release Blitz for The Aristocrat by Penelope Ward




Title: The Aristocrat
Author: Penelope Ward
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: August 30, 2021


BLURB

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?
Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer.
From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.
Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own—watching me watching Leo.
That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them.
Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.
Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.
Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn’t seem to stay away.
It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we’d fallen in love.
We both had one wish: more time together.
But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I’d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back.
A part of me always felt like I’d let my soulmate walk away.
I believed our story was over.
Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core.
I’d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?
Well, I knew nothing yet.

Review by Gia

The Aristocrat was a great read.  Penelope Ward is one of my one-click authors.  When my one-click authors publish a new book I'm always worried that I won't like it.  That wasn't the case with this one, I loved it.  I loved Leo and Felicity and everything about their story.  I was hooked right from the beginning.  Leo is a sexy British guy and he's definitely swoon-worthy.  Felicity is cute and smart and a down 1to earth girl.   Leo and Felicity have a great connection.  Their story is well worth the read.
5 Stars

Cover Reveal for Simply Complicated by S. Nelson




Title: Simply Complicated
Author: S. Nelson
Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance
Cover Design: CT Cover Creations
Release Date: September 29, 2021


BLURB

My plan is simple. Proposition a man and extend a challenge: help me accomplish something I’ve never been able to do before with past boyfriends.
But there are rules.
He needs to be a stranger and someone who won't judge me if I can't cross the finish line.
Luke Sorenson, one of the most famous soccer players in the world, isn't meant to be that man. He's the guy I grew up next door to. The man who broke my heart ten years ago, then moved across the country and never looked back.
He also happens to be the one person in the world I can't stand.
But as my best friend points out, he's the best option.
Besides, it's only for one night. What can possibly go wrong?

***

The last person I expect to see when I walk into a random corner bar is Olivia Brighton, the one woman I let slip through my fingers when I chased my dream a decade ago.
Not only do I run into her again, but I offer to help her out with her dilemma, and she accepts.
It's supposed to be a one-time occurrence. One shot to prove my skills in bed.
But that one shot turns into a deal, which morphs into something neither of us predicts.
One thing's for certain—everything is about to get simply complicated.

EXCERPT

“What are you doing here?” Olivia’s eyes were so big she reminded me of a cartoon character. A sexy, begging-to-be-kissed cartoon character.
“Surprise.” I moved to take a step inside, but she blocked me from entering. “You’re not going to let me in?”
“Not until you tell me what you’re doing here. How do you even know where my parents live?”
Her stunned expression had waned since she answered the door, but she was still a bit dumbstruck. I didn’t blame her, though. I did just show up out of the blue.
“Luke. Glad you could make it.” Mark walked up behind Olivia, but she was still blocking the doorway. When she continued to just stand there, he tapped her arm. “Don’t be rude. Let him in.”
“Yeah, Ollie. Let me in.”
“Ollie,” he repeated. “I haven’t heard anyone call her that in years.”
“That’s because it was my special nickname for her,” I said, my eyes veering to my friend before landing back on the gorgeous woman in front of me. With some light prodding from her older brother, she finally took a step back so I could enter. After shaking hands with Mark, who I’d run into earlier today at a liquor store of all places, I leaned in and kissed Olivia’s cheek right before I wrapped her in a huge hug. Pressing my lips to her ear, I whispered, “I miss being inside you.” She gasped the same time I released her. “How long has it been?” The only words Mark heard me speak were the last five.
“What?”
“I asked how long it’s been since we’ve seen each other.”
“Oh.” Her attention bounced between me and her brother. “Um… I… I don’t know.” She barely managed to get her words out, her flustered state not going unnoticed by Mark.
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you acting so weird?” he asked. “Is it because that guy will be here soon? Don’t be nervous. Luke and I got you. We’ll take some of the pressure off.” He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and kissed her temple. They’d always had such a close relationship and it was nice to see that aspect of their lives hadn’t changed.
“Who’s coming over?” I asked, pretending not to know that she was being set up on a blind date.
“My mom invited some guy over to dinner tonight to meet Olivia.”
“Doug,” she uttered. Her attention was on her sibling when she spoke. “Mom said his name is Doug.”
“Doug,” I repeated. I didn’t like the sound of his name.
“Yes, Doug. And don’t either of you say anything embarrassing.” With her shock at my intrusion finally gone, she followed Mark further into the house. And I had the pleasure of walking behind her. When I deemed my buddy was out of earshot, I grabbed her waist and stopped her in her tracks, resting my lips near her ear like I’d done a few minutes ago. “Do you like that I shaved?”
“It doesn’t make a difference to me.” She kept her back to me, but I could tell her breathing had quickened.
“It will, when my I bury my head between your legs again.”
She threw me a glare over her shoulder, but I saw the intrigue laced behind her eyes, even though she tried to hide it.
“You’re impossible.” She swatted at my hand.
“Impossibly horny.”

Valèrie

I scored my dream job at Stars Magazine.
And even though I have to work for a jerk boss,
I give it my all like I always do.
Even when I’m forced to work for Full Moon
and see Max, the lead singer, again,
I’m positive I can do this.
Apparently, he’s got his mind set on winning me back,
but I haven’t forgotten what happened the last time.

Max

Everyone thinks I have it all together.
But there’s one misstep I always regretted.
My choice for fame cost me the love of my life.
We’ll only be working together for a few weeks,
so I don’t plan to waste a single minute.
But one thing’s for sure:
she’s not letting me win without a fight.

CRAVE is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books in the Full Moon series, but if you prefer to read in order, start with TRUST and FATE as the characters do interconnect.

Release Date: August 27

From USA TODAY & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Meagan Brandy comes an all-new standalone romance set in college about a hotshot pitcher and the girl he never saw coming. 

You know how in college there’s that one guy everyone wants to be?

That’s me.

I’m the top dog.
The number one.
The big man on campus.

Some say those things are solid wins.
My new tutor would disagree.

My title means nothing to her.
My status lost on her.

And now my mind? That sucker is stuck on her.

She was told to make our sessions priority over all, to drop everything when I need her, and come to me. She does.

But I don’t want to steal her time anymore.
I want to earn it.

If anyone can do that, it’s me.

I’m Tobias Cruz, the king of the curveball. I don’t lose.
Not the game, and surely not the girl.

Little did I know, this girl has herself a secret … and it’s the dirtiest curve yet.

Review by Gia
Dirty Curve is a great read. It hooked me from beginning to end. I got a little lost in this story and lost track of time while reading it. When starting this one you should block out some time just in case you get caught up in it like I did. I loved Tobias and Meyer. Tobias is a really good baseball player. He's cocky and a player. He's struggling with a few classes so his coach gets him a tutor. Meyer is his tutor. She is a down-to-earth girl that has a lot on her plate. She isn't falling at Tobias' feet like most girls. She makes him work to learn and do his own assignments. There's a connection there but Meyer has a secret. She a has secret. If you read the blurb before you read you know she has a secret. I read the blurb and was intrigued by what her secret would be. I spent quite a bit of time trying to figure it out. I had theories but none of them were right. I really loved this story from beginning to end and you should definitely buy this one.
5 Stars!!

Release Date: September 3, 2021

Once I caught her, she was mine, and I always protect what’s mine.

JJ Marie
I always had a plan. A six-month job in Tennessee was the last step to my goal of opening my own interior design firm. Hanging out with my college best friend was just an added perk.

Love was never a part of my plan—then Brew Axton picked me up from the airport.

Brew was fire, and I was ice, and the mix made for a delicious sizzle.

I wasn’t ready to belong to anyone—that was… until Brew.

Brew Axton
I was not looking for the "happily ever after." I lived my life on my terms. My job and my club were all I needed.

Who knew doing a favor for my best friend would change the direction of everything?

I wanted JJ Marie more than my next breath. She made the hot-blooded male in me come to life and want things I never wanted before her.

JJ may have thought she was here for six months only, but I’m determined to extend her stay—indefinitely.

Winning a woman who could bring me to my knees wasn’t a game I cared to play—that was… until JJ.
