Beginning with Forever Release Day Blitz- 3/4/14



Beginning with Forever
by Lan LLP

Love isn’t easy to forget even if you’re determined to never feel it again. It has a way of finding you when all hope is gone, resurfacing tender emotions you’ve buried deep in your core because the pain of acknowledging them is too much for you to handle.


Carson Bradley, CEO of a powerful, pharmaceutical corporation, will soon discover that his heart hasn’t really been dead for the last fifteen years since his first love passed away. He just hasn’t met Lillian yet. She’s a humble, young medical student whose heart is kind and generous enough to heal the sick as well as his broken heart. When their paths cross at an unlikely place thousands of miles away from home, they both realize that fate has brought them together, and Carson will never let anything or anyone tear them apart. He knows how desolate life is without love and refuses to return to that dark place again.

Lillian enters Carson’s world with the purest intention of loving him with all her heart, but discovers that his volatile world will alter her uncomplicated life indefinitely. Regardless of what obstacles are thrown in their path, Lillian and Carson will endure them all to hold onto their forever from the beginning to the end.







   As far back as I can remember I had always hoped that I would one day create something memorable in my lifetime. That day came when I had my first daughter and then again with my second daughter. I’m happily married to my real-life Mr. Happy Ending whom I’ve been with since I was sixteen. I’m a passionate mom with dreams and ambitions just like everyone else. God blessed me with artistic genes, and I thank Him every day for giving me so much to be grateful for. I’ve dabbled in floral, fashion and interior designs. I love makeup, hair, photography and art and cooking. There’s nothing creative that I don’t like. Just give me a challenge, and I’m sure I can figure a clever and imaginative way to work it out.


    Over a long year ago, I decided to pick up a pen and write the first sentence of a story I’ve imagined in my head ever since I was a daydreaming little girl, minus the steamy parts of course. That sentence led to the start of my book, “Beginning with Forever.” With all my heart, I wrote, rewrote, edited, re-edited and now, I’m finally ready to share it with the world. My one and only aspiration for this book is to have readers embrace my story and characters with all their heart. If I can make someone laugh, hate, cry, love, drool or feel any other emotions, than I’ve succeeded my goal.
   I’m the sappiest person in the world when it comes to romance. Don’t laugh! I believe in love at first sight, Prince Charming or Mr. Hot Billionaire and happy endings. In my heart, every women deserves all three, and they will when they lose themselves in my books.

Two To Tango by Mimi Strong Review

Two to Tango by Author Mimi Strong- Reviewed by Tonya


Charlie and Skye’s love story was very raw, emotional, and unique. It was a definite five star read for me. I loved the way the book was in two person POV and I especially loved all the twists and turns it took to make the story its own in a very unique way. 
Charlie Ward is wealthy 29 year old man that was born into money. He works for his family’s country club as the “fixer”, Charlie loves to fix problems. Ever since he was a small child and lost his mother, he has a need to fix everything. Skye Evans is a dance instructor and former stripper. She is trying hard to turn her life around and make good choices. With a scarred childhood, being the secret daughter of a mistress and a wealthy man with another family, she despises the rich people.  
When Skye’s dance class is threatened by the new classes at the country club, Skye decides to attend the open house in hoping to talk her parents out of taking their children out of her class. Before she has a chance to confront her student’s parents, she bumps into the clubs grounds keeper. Charlie thinks Skye is there to crash the open house and Skye believes that Charlie is the country clubs grounds keeper. Neither of them make the effort to ask each other because the sexual chemistry is enough for them not to care (and ummmm… its great… pool sex scene anyone?)They have an amazing night together but then they lose contact because of some crazy bad luck. 
 Speaking of bad luck, the universe is definitely not on the couple’s side as everything that could go wrong does. Skye ends up losing almost everything she has worked so hard for and her life starts to unravel. When Charlie finally finds Skye again, she is down and out. He tries to fix her problems for her and is succeeding pretty well, until she realizes that he is rich, and not the grounds keeper. Can she finally trust a wealthy man? Charlie is not without his demons, he is not so sure of Skye either, even though he has strong feeling for her, he thinks that she is hiding something from him. 
My favorite thing about this story is the way it keeps you on your toes. I loved not knowing what the next chapter was going to bring.  If you’re looking for a new kind of love story, Charlie and Skye’s story is it. 


**Excerpt**~ Charlie and Skye - 
Charlie: “I’ll do anything for a future member. When you get back to your car, you’ll find in addition to having your tire fixed, your vehicle will have been thoroughly washed, waxed, and vacuumed.” 
“You were so worried about me sneaking in here and stealing all your fancy cheese, and now you’re being so nice to me, Why?”
“Because you can’t trust first impressions.”

When I Break by Kendall Ryan Review

**Warning**
This book is intended for a mature reading audience and contains adult language and themes. 

Knox Bauer's life has unraveled to the point of no return. Fighting to fill the emptiness inside himself, he seeks solace in unfamiliar beds with unfamiliar women. As guardian to his three younger brothers, he can't seem to do a thing right. But this can't go on...they look up to him in every way and all he’s done lately is prove how messed up he really is. Needing a change, he attends a local Sex Addicts Anonymous meeting, where he finds himself tempted by the alluring instructor, McKenna.

Twenty-one year old McKenna is trying to make amends. After losing her parents in a horrific accident, she knows if she can just be good enough, maybe she can forgive herself for what happened. With her newly acquired degree in counseling, she begins leading a sex addicts group where she meets the troubled Knox and her life takes on complications she never bargained for. She doesn't have time for a bad boy who only wants to take her to bed, even if her body disagrees. The fixer in her wants to help, but trusting Knox's true motivations might take more courage than she has.

When I Break is book 1 in a new series by New York Times & USA Today bestselling author Kendall Ryan. When I Surrender, book 2, will be available April 7, 2014. Please note this is not a standalone, as the story continues in book 2. 

Note: Contains a stubborn alpha male with addiction issues and loads of sexual tension between two damaged characters. Read at your own risk.

Here is my review.. 

When I Break

When sexed up Knox has to attend Sex Addicts Anonymous he meets his instructor McKenna, the sweet and innocent virgin. (Unbeknownst to Knox or others in her group session.)
We meet Knox's younger brother who is fully responsible for after their mom dies & dad walks away.  Even though they are younger they fully respect Knox and help out around the house. 

The slow build up if friendship mixed with some sexual tension between Knox and McKenna is nice to see, they don't dive right in and have regrets. But McKenna finds it hard to deal with Knox's issues and you can't blame her if you ask me. Even though she thinks he is trying he isn't, until further into the book. 
They grow closer as does her connection with his brothers. When a new member is brought into the group you can feel the heartbreak is right around the corner. You can't help but feel for McKenna when she finally thinks Knox might change for her when his confession sucker punches her. Even I wanted to slap the boy silly. 
I'm looking forward to the next book to see how Knox and McKenna over come this huge hurdle in they journey. I give this book 5 stars for sure. <3 Amy

Twisted Ties by KA Robinson Review- March 1



Twisted Ties by KA Robinson

Wow! I could not wait to read this after Shattered Ties ended the way that it did and I just wondered what was going to happen when this book started. I did NOT expect to get what I got in reading this! I absolutely loved it but I drank a lot while reading it. LOL! This book had it all- drama, angst, passion, heartache and the token bitch that needs a punch in the throat. Ally- die, bitch, die!!! ;) No, seriously, I will not give the whole book or the ending away by saying too much, just go to Goodreads if you want someone to ruin a book for you! Hahaha! If you liked the story in Shattered Ties, you will LOVE the even better one in Twisted Ties. I absolutely did not see a friendship between Emma and Andy happened but I thought it was great for both of them and the fact that Andy moved all the way across the country to help Emma find Jesse made me love him like crazy, just not enough for me to want them to end up a couple. Emma and Jesse together is all I wanted from page one of Shattered Ties, so....Not to be missed 5-stars from KA Robinson.  #TeamJesse <3 Kellie 


Synopsis

Two years ago, Emma Preston walked away from Jesse Daniels. It is a decision she has regretted ever since. Plagued with the knowledge that Ally’s lies tore them apart, Emma enlists Jesse’s former best friend, Andy, to help her search for him. 

When he left California, Jesse was determined to start over in West Virginia with his mother. Now, the past is determined to catch up with him—first, with the appearance of Ally, and when Emma and Andy come back into his life.

Just when Emma thinks she’s found Jesse, a dark secret and misunderstandings force them apart before they can even reconnect. Jesse is torn between his love for Emma and protecting his childhood friend, Ally. Ally has an agenda of her own, and she’s not about to let Emma get in her way—even if that means getting rid of her…permanently. 

Can Emma and Jesse’s relationship survive all of their twisted ties?

***18+ only for adult content including, but not limited to, sexual scenes, cursing, and extreme violence.***

Spoiler Excerpt



“So, what are you going to do?”
“I need to talk to Ally first and tell her that you know. She’ll be angry
with me, but once she figures out that you’re not going to go out and do
something stupid, I think she’ll be okay. After that, I’m going to talk with
Emma. I said some really horrible shit to her tonight. I accused her of
sleeping with you since that’s what Ally told me.”
“Shit. Jesse, I need to talk to you about something.”
I was instantly on alert as I felt him tense beside me. “What?”
“I…okay, first off, it wasn’t something that either of us meant to do.”
“Andy, just tell me what the hell you’re talking about.”
He looked up at me, his eyes filled with remorse. “I slept with Emma.”
