Resenha – Here’s to Series

31/07/2018

Hoje estamos compartilhando com vocês nossas resenhas, sinopses e alguns teasers da série HERE’S TO, da autora Teagan Hunter. Todos os livros podem ser lidos através do KindleUnlimited. Boa leitura!

Today we are sharing our reviews and some teasers from the HERE’S TO series by Teagan Hunter. Each book in this series is available to read for FREE in KindleUnlimited. Check out buy links below to grab your copies now.

Here’s to Tomorrow

Sabe aquele livro que vem de mansinho, mostrando ser uma coisa doce e de repente te surpreende com todos os sentimentos possíveis? Então… 😉
Rae e Hudson tem uma química perfeita e desde a primeira página você sabe que o romance deles vai ser explosivo. Acrescente a isso uma das crianças mais fofas que eu já vi em um livro, e você já teria um excelente romance. Mas essa história não fica só nisso, ela entra fundo nas emoções, traumas do passado e conflitos familiares, deixando você na ponta da cadeira e roendo as unhas para saber o desfecho. Leia esse livro, essa série para ser sincera, e você não vai se arrepender!

Here’s to Forever

Uma novella com a continuação da história de Rae e Hudson, essa pequena história não tem nada de simples. Não é somente o “e foram felizes para sempre” que estamos acostumados nesse tipo de livro, ela tem substância e emoções até dizer chega! Apesar desse ser o livro 1.5, eu super aconselho ler primeiro o livro 2, por causa de spoilers.

Here’s to Yesterday

Ah Trucker, você me enganou no primeiro livro! Tudo fazia parecer que você era o cara sem preocupação, brincalhão e pronto para uma farra. Como eu estou feliz de ter sido enganada. Trucker e Maura formam o casal impossível para quem você torce, ainda mais se o adversário for a mãe de Maura! Mais uma vez, tenho que dizer o quanto essa série é emotiva e profunda, fazendo você parar e pensar qual seria sua atitude naquele caso, torcer pelos personagens e comemorar cada conquista. O que você está esperando? Vai lá ler!!

Here’s to Now

Eu posso dizer que mesmo tendo os outros livros da série e lido a sinopse, eu entrei nesse livro às cegas. Hailey sempre foi uma incógnita pra mim e por boa parte desse livro ela continuou sendo. Se eu achei que os outros livros da série pegavam forte na emoção, como fui bobinha! Esse livro estraçalhou meu coração!! Dividido em partes, ele nos transporta para um mundo de dor, perdas, escolhas e consequências, todos na medida certa para nos encantar, fazer chorar, torcer e comemorar. Não vou entrar muito em detalhes para não dar spoilers, mas esse livro entrou para os meus favoritos do ano!

Book Blurb:

SEXY SINGLE DAD ROMANCE!

HUDSON
When I became a single father at seventeen, I knew my path wasn’t going to be easy. Hell, sometimes it sucked. Year after year, I tirelessly busted my ass until my business was booming. Until my daughter was happy. Until life? It was good. Settled.

But sometimes being settled is overrated. Boring. Especially when a little excitement walks through my door in the shape of Rae Kamden. With her sarcastic mouth and smartass comebacks, she’s the type of girl still sowing her wild oats and not looking to settle. Not with a guy like me.

RAE
I’ve been stuck in this small town since I was a child and nothing is going to keep me here. Not anymore. Done being tied down, I’m out of here the first chance I get. This town can kiss my ass goodbye.

I’m twenty-two. Single. Unwilling to settle. But if I did? It wouldn’t be with Hudson Tamell.

So explain to me why the moment he looks up from under the hood of my car, the sarcastic replies on my lips come out sounding sweeter. Why does he make me want to settle down, right here, with him?

That’s not what I wanted. But maybe it’s what I need.

Book Blurb:

HUDSON
I’ve been living in a blissful bubble for nearly a year now. Everything with Rae is perfect, and I feel like we’re on the fast track to forever.

Then I go and do something stupid and suddenly we’re speeding toward Splitsville. Well, to be fair, I’ve been doing something stupid. I just haven’t had the balls to tell her about it.

It could break us. Or make us stronger. I’m only hoping she sees things my way…

RAE
I never anticipated my life looking like it does, living with my boyfriend and his eight-year-old daughter. But here I am, happier than I could have ever imagined.

Until Hudson screws it all up, telling lie after lie after freakin’ lie. But he thinks he’s “doing the right thing”. He doesn’t see things my way…

How am I supposed to say yes to forever when I can’t even trust my tomorrow?

Maybe this was all a mistake…

Book Blurb:

You’re not supposed to fall in love with your boyfriend’s brother…

HER
My entire life has been “perfect” for as long as I can remember. A loving family, a boyfriend who adores me, and anything I wanted, I got. But it was all a lie, a façade. My family isn’t loving, my boyfriend is more interested in my body than my mind, and it turns out money can’t buy happiness.

I’ve felt lost and stuck for far too long. Then, everything changed when I was least expecting it. It wasn’t supposed to happen.

Not with…him.

HIM
I want to make one thing clear: I saw her first.

Not that it makes anything okay, but it’s true. The moment she walked into my line of sight, I knew she was something special. I could see past the mask she wore, could see right down to her soul.

I recognized instantly that she needed a friend…and it just so happens I did too. So, I wormed my way in. Took her out on the town, forced her from her solitary existence. Together we grew brave, stepped outside the boxes we’d been placed in. Walked a thin line between “just friends” and something more.

I just didn’t mean to fall in love with…her.

VEGAS WEDDING WITH A TWIST…

My life is full of regrets. I’ve screwed up more times than I can count, but I’ve spent the past several years atoning for my wrongdoings. I’m finally in a good place, ready to move on and step into the role waiting for me.

Then Haley Kamden comes crashing into my life, throwing me yet another curveball. Our relationship is one misadventure after the next. It’s explosive in all the right ways, and so are we.

But I have baggage, and a lot of it.

I’m just hoping she can handle it…

Sinopse

Blurb

Palpites, corridas de cavalos e corações quebrados

Dez anos após Simone Payton quebrar seu coração, tudo que Roscoe Winston quer é um doughnut. Ele também gostaria de esquecê-la completamente, mas isso nunca acontecerá. Roscoe Winston lembra tudo – cada olhar, cada palavra, cada segundo não correspondido – e a última coisa que ele precisa é outra memória de Simone.

Infelizmente, após um encontro ao acaso, Simone começa a aparecer em todos os lugares que ele está…

Dez anos após Roscoe Winston sumir de sua vida, tudo que Simone Payton quer é explorá-lo. Ela também gostaria de algumas respostas do seu antigo melhor amigo sobre o motivo dele ter sumido, mas mas se ela nunca conseguir essas respostas, está tudo bem. Simone largou o passado há muito tempo. Sério, ela largou. Ela completamente largou. Ela definitivamente não está pensando em Roscoe. Não. Ela está mais do que feliz em esquecer que ele existe.

Mas antes, ela só precisa de um favor bem pequenininho…

Dr. Strange Beard é uma comédia romântica, pode ser lido independentemente, e é o quinto livro na série Bestseller Winston Brothers.

Hunches, horse races, and heartbreak

Ten years after Simone Payton broke his heart, all Roscoe Winston wants is a doughnut. He’d also like to forget her entirely, but that’s never going to happen. Roscoe Winston remembers everything—every look, every word, every single unrequited second—and the last thing he needs is another memory of Simone.

Unfortunately, after one chance encounter, Simone keeps popping up everywhere he happens to be . . .

Ten years after Roscoe Winston dropped out of her life, all Simone Payton wants is to exploit him. She’d also like some answers from her former best friend about why he ghosted her, but if she never gets those answers, that’s a-okay. Simone let go of the past a long time ago. Seriously, she has. She totally, totally has. She is definitely not still thinking about Roscoe. Nope. She’s more than happy to forget he exists.

But first, she needs just one teeny-tiny favor . . .

Dr. Strange Beard is a full-length romantic comedy novel, can be read as a stand-alone, and is the fifth book in the USA TODAY bestselling Winston Brothers series.

Resenha – Sweet Sixteen

27/07/2018

A resenha de hoje é do livro SWEET SIXTEEN da autora Brenda Rothert.

Our review today is about SWEET SIXTEEN by Brenda Rothert.

 

Resenha

Review

Perturbador. Não tinha outra palavra para descrever esse livro quando acabei a leitura. Fiquei ali, com meu kindle na mão, pensando no que eu tinha lido. Uma história chocante, realística e tão bem desenvolvida. Meu maior conselho para você nesse momento é: leia esse livro. Mas vá por mim, leia o mínimo possível sobre ele antes. Esse é o tipo de história para entrar às cegas e aproveitar cada linha, cada nuance, cada descoberta.
Essa é uma história sobre amor, amizade, certo e errado. Um conto sobre acreditar no que te disseram, sem parar para analisar se os atos são corretos. Sobre fazer o que é certo, não importa o que.
Eu detestei Chase por um bom tempo, achava que ele não iria mudar minha opinião, ah como ele me provou errada! Ja Gin, essa ganhou um espaço no meu coração para sempre, que heroína maravilhosa! Vá ler o livro, acredite em mim, vale a pena! Depois venha aqui me contar o que achou…
Disturbing. It was the first word to come to my mind after I finished reading Sweet Sixteen. After that, others joined: original, well written, realistic…
I love how the blurb said so much but at the same time let you go into the story blind.
It is a story with all the high school clichés, without being cliché. It’s a tale of right, wrong, friendship and love.
A story about believing in what you are told without thinking, and about doing what is right.
For the majority of the book, I hated Chase and couldn’t see things working in the end, but oh how he proved me wrong! He changed so much, grew in the story and grew in my heart. Gin was completely different. She was perfection from beginning to end. I think I never loved a heroine so much in a YA book.
I really can’t say much without giving spoilers, so believe me and go read this book in the dark. Be surprise by the plot and enjoy your reading!

Sinopse

Blurb

Dizem que rosas são as mais bonitas…

Gin Fielding está contando os dias até poder escapar a vida de cidade pequena em Roper, Missouri para ir para a NYU. Ela prefere se misturar, mas ela está longe de ser invisível. Mas quando ela protege um estudante mais novo de um bully, o foco se vira para ele de maneiras que ela nunca imaginou.

Eu digo que cada rosa tem seus espinhos…

As luzes das noites de sexta-feira brilham para Chase Matthews. Menino de ouro de Roper, Chase é considerado perfeito, aproveitando sua celebridade de cidade pequena que existe por ser o quarterback. Quando Gin defende sua irmã mais nova do Bully, ele decide emprestá-la seu poder de estrela e muda seu último ano de colégio de um jeito que ela nunca imaginou.

Mas talvez espinhos sejam parte da sua beleza.

Quando Gin declina o convite de Chase para ser parte do grupo de elite “Sweet Sixteen”, as repercussões viram suas vidas de cabeça para baixo. Em meio ao Caos, Gin e Chase acham consolo em um ao outro. Juntos, eles confrontam a feia verdade — as vezes a glória tem um lado negro.

*** Atenção – Sweet Sixteen é um livro juvenil com temas maduros, e é indicado para leitores maiores de 18 anos.

They say roses are the most beautiful…

Gin Fielding is counting the days until she escapes the small-town life of Roper, Missouri for college at NYU. She prefers to blend in, though she’s far from invisible. But when she protects a younger student from a bully, the spotlight turns on her in ways she never imagined.

I say that every rose has its thorn…

The Friday night lights shine bright on Chase Matthews. Roper’s golden boy, Chase can do no wrong, enjoying the small-town celebrity being the star quarterback brings. When Gin defends his little sister against a bully, he decides to lend her his star power and change her senior year in ways she never imagined.

But maybe the thorns are part of their beauty.

When Gin declines Chase’s invitation to be part of the elite Sweet Sixteen, the repercussions turn both their lives upside down. But amidst the chaos, Gin and Chase find solace in one another. Together, they confront the ugly truth– that sometimes glory has a dark side.

***Warning–Sweet Sixteen is an upper YA book with mature themes and is intended for readers 18+.

Excerpt – A Little Bit Like Desire

27/07/2018

ALBLD-SBPRBANNER-Blogtour.jpg

Hoje temos um trecho de A Little Bit Like Desire, da autora Brooke Blaine. Para ler nossa resenha e a sinopse do livro, veja aqui.

 

IMG_1813.JPG

Excerpt:

I’d been inside Bash’s mansion enough times to know where he was taking me, even blindfolded. Through the front door, across the foyer, up the never-ending staircase. Walking down the hallway, I heard muffled sounds, as though there were people coupled up and already behind closed doors, and the further Bash took me, the louder the voices became. But there were no discernable words—it was more the breathless cries of men giving and receiving pleasure, and it made me hard as a fucking rock.

“Sounds like the party started without me,” I said, a smile tipping my lips.

“Not where you’re going,” he replied. I heard the sound of a handle being pressed down, felt the soft rush of air as a door opened and I was led inside, and then the click of the door shutting behind us. Whatever room he’d led me to was dead silent. We were alone.

Bash tapped the side of my blindfold lightly.“You’ll keep this on until you get inside,” he said, keeping his voice low, as though he didn’t want anyone to hear him.

Ah, so I’d be going through yet another door. I wondered at all of this secrecy, since usually these parties were informal, and if we wanted to wander off with someone, we did. Eyes wide open and lights on.

But I trusted Bash with my life and knew him well enough to know that he had to have a good reason for doing this the way he was. So I didn’t think twice when I heard a second door open, felt his gentle hand on my back guiding me forward, and then heard him say with a smile in his voice,“Enjoy,my friends.”

Then he was gone, and yet I was not alone.

I removed the blindfold, but I needn’t have bothered. The room was pitch black. Not a window, not a crack of light coming through the door. I couldn’t see a thing, but I could feel another’s presence, sure as if they were standing beside me. I waited for them to speak, but the silence lingered on. They didn’t say a word, and they didn’t move, though they had to know I’d arrived.

This must be part of the game,I thought. For whatever reason, we weren’t allowed to see each other, and I’d venture a guess that speaking was out of the question as well. Something told me there was more at play here than darkness simply heightening our awareness and setting the mood, and that had a shiver running down my spine.

If it’s a game they want, it’s a game they’ll get.

Opening my senses, I stood perfectly still and waited until I got a hint of where the man waiting for me was. My rapidly pounding heart was all I could hear for a long moment until a faint sound, maybe a quiet exhale, sounded to my right, and I stalked in that direction slowly, letting my prey hear me coming. Would he run and make me chase him? Or did he want me to find him waiting?

With my hands slightly in front of me, I moved forward until my fingertips grazed against smooth material cut with a cold and jagged line that ran vertically—a zipper. The smell of leather filled my nose as I slid my hands up the man’s jacket. He didn’t move, but I could hear his shuddering breath as I reached his shoulders and slipped my hands beneath the leather to feel the naked, tensed muscles there. He was maybe three or four inches shorter than me, and as I pushed the jacket down, I realized he wasn’t wearing anything underneath. No shirt. Nothing to cover the solid muscle of his strong arms and chest.

The leather fell to the ground, and then the man reached for me, his hands skimming up my arms, my shoulders, my neck, leaving goosebumps in their wake. There was something so tantalizing about a stranger touching me, wanting from me, as we stood toe to toe in the unlit room. I could see how the mystery of it all would make someone shy feel more bold and empowered, though that had never been something I struggled with. I had no problem telling someone what I wanted and when, which meant tonight’s clandestine activities were tailored for the man currently caressing my body—but it’d sure as hell be a fun, sexy pursuit for me.

When his rough fingers reached my lips, I grabbed his wrist and held him there. Then I kissed the tips and sucked his pointer and middle fingers deep into my mouth, swirling my tongue around him, and his gasp hit my ears.

The sound was so erotic, the salty taste of his skin so heady on my tongue, that I had to palm my already-up-and-ready-to-go dick to calm it the hell down. As if he sensed my arousal, he pulled his fingers from my mouth and punched his hips forward. I let out a throaty groan at the contact. His erection matched my own, though more constricted through the tight fit of his jeans.

Thirsty for more, I grabbed his trim waist and let my hands fall to his backside. His shoulders were against a wall, and with his ass firmly in my grasp, I held his hips against me, rubbing myself off on the bulge rocking against my own. All the while, his fingers deftly unfastened the buttons of my vest, and then he pulled loose my shirt and began removing those as well. My chest heaved as he pushed my jacket, shirt, and vest off in one go, and I kicked them away, not worried in the slightest about finding them later.

His touch made goosebumps break out on my naked flesh wherever he roamed. Down my neck and then my chest, where he pinched my nipples so hard that I cried out in painful pleasure and put my hands over his.

He froze, as if he’d crossed an unspoken line. But if he’d thought he’d gone too far or that I was about to stop him, he was dead wrong. I guided our hands down together, over my trembling abs and then further, further, until we pushed beneath the waistband of my pants to my—

“Fuuuck.” His head fell back against the wall as the curse left his lips on an exhale.

In the dark, I smiled. He’d broken the rules to his own game. With one word, he changed everything, and now? Anything goes.

Resenha/Review:

Sabe aquele tipo de livro que você ama mas não sabe como descrever, o que sentir e o que pensar? Everything Under the Sun é esse tipo de livro. Uma história pós-apocalíptica onde tudo é possível e necessário para sobreviver. Onde o abuso de poder se torna ainda mais comum e as leis não mais existem. É nesse pano de fundo que Thais e Atticus precisam sobreviver e se encontram e se apaixonam. Esse livro é tão mais do que um romance! Uma história épica de sobrevivência, família e amizade que vai fazer você sofrer, chorar, se desesperar e amar. Só tenho uma coisa a dizer: preciso de mais dessa história! Leia essa linda história que você não vai se arrepender.

Do you know when you are left speechless by a book? This is the case, so I’ll keep it short and to the point. A story of love, family, survivor and so much more! When left in a post-apocalyptic world, Thais and Atticus have to face a lot of hardship only to survive. It was amazing to follow their journey and live with them.  Just one more thing: I need more!!

 

Title: Everything Under the Sun

Author: Jessica Redmerski

Genre: Dystopian

About Everything Under the Sun:

Thais Fenwick was eleven-years-old when civilization fell, devastated by a virus that killed off the majority of the world’s population. For seven years, Thais and her family lived in a community of survivors deep in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains. But when her town is attacked by raiders, she and her blind sister are taken away to the East-Central Territory where she is destined to live the cruel and unjust kind of life her late mother warned her about.

Atticus Hunt is a troubled soldier in Lexington City who has spent the past seven years trying to conform to the vicious nature of men in a post-apocalyptic society. He knows that in order to survive, he must abandon his morals and his conscience and become like those he is surrounded by. But when he meets Thais, morals and conscience win out over conformity, and he risks his rank and his life to help her. They escape the city and set out together on a long and perilous journey to find safety in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Struggling to survive in a world without electricity, food, shelter, and clean water, Atticus and Thais shed their fear of growing too close, and they fall hopelessly in love. But can love survive in such dark times, or is it fated to die with them?

Resenha – Downbeat

26/07/2018

A resenha de hoje é do livro Downbeat, da autora Jodie Larson. Apesar de ser o quarto livro da série Lightning Strikes, ele pode ser lido sozinho sem problemas. Veja abaixo nossa resenha, sinopse e links de compra. Boa leitura!

 

Resenha/Review:

Preciso começar dizendo que eu amo livro com músicos e Downbeat não decepciona! Um romance lindo, construído com carinho e desenvolvido aos poucos, fazendo você se apaixonar pelos personagens e torcer pelo seu final feliz.
Paxton não é seu roqueiro comum, ele não está interessado numa vida de sexo, drogas e rock’n roll. Ele quer ter o mesmo que seus companheiros de banda, um amor para chamar de seu e uma família. E ele encontra tudo isso em Kylie. Alguém que o entende, ama conversar e tem uma família dedicada. Amei acompanhar essa história se formando e todas as surpresinhas que tivemos pelo caminho!

First of all, I love music stars’ books e Downbeat doesn’t changed it! A beautiful romance, written with care and somewhat of a slow burn. It makes you fall in love with the characters and hope for a happily ever after.
Paxton is not your typical rock star. He doesn’t want to be in the limelight, he wants what his friends have. Love, family and peace. Can he find it in Kylie? Someone to talk, to cherish, that has a family.
I loved reading this stories and that happened in there to surprise us!

Title: Downbeat
Series: Lightning Strikes #4
Author: Jodie Larson
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 26, 2018
Sinopse

Tempo forte (Downbeat) |n|: A primeira batida em uma medida, geralmente a mais forte. Fama, fortuna, viajando para diferentes cidades pelo país… Eu estou vivendo o sonho. Como o baterista da Lightning Strikes, é o meu trabalho para te viciar e você continua vindo atrás de mais. É o meu ofício, minha vocação, no que eu sou mestre.

Mesmo com tudo isso, eu continuo sendo um cara normal que quer comer em food trucks e vegetar no sofá, jogando video games até não enxergar. Tudo estava perfeito.

Pelo menos eu pensei que estava, até uma loira de arrasar entrou na minha vida e me fez questionar tudo que eu sabia. Eu a quero. Eu preciso dela. Só que ela tem medo de destaque, medo do que isso fará com ela e com quem ela ama. O muro em volta do seu coração está me mantendo de fora, mas eu sei que logo irei quebrar suas barreiras. Ela precisa saber que existe mais entre nós do que ela imagina, que a nossa química é o nosso “tempo forte” pra eternidade. Todos os caras da banda tiveram seus finais felizes. Talvez agora seja a hora do meu.

Blurb
Downbeat |n|: The first beat in a measure, often the strongest. Fame,
fortune, traveling to different cities across the country…I’m living the dream.
As the drummer for the Lightning Strikes, it’s my job to hook you in and keep
you coming back for more. It’s my craft, my calling, what I’m a master at.



Even with all that, I’m still just a normal guy who wants to eat at food
trucks and lounge on the couch, playing video games until I can’t see straight.
Everything was perfect.



At least I thought it was, until a blonde bombshell walked into my life
and made me question everything I thought I knew. I want her. I need her. Only,
she’s afraid of the spotlight, afraid of what it’ll do to her and the ones she
loves. The wall around her heart is keeping me out, but I know before long I
will break down her barriers. She needs to know that there is more to us than
what she sees, that this chemistry between us is our downbeat to forever. All
the guys in the band have their happily ever after. Maybe it’s time for
mine.

Excerpt
He slides his hand into mine as we chase after Jayce through the arcade, watching him bounce from game to game. It doesn’t bother him that he doesn’t know how to play or whether he’s heard of it. If it’s available, he wants it.
“Anything you want to do?” Pax looks over, still holding my hand with no intention of letting go. A million little butterflies take off in my stomach. Being with Pax is so natural, it doesn’t even phase me anymore when he does things like this, acting like two people who have known each other for years rather than weeks.
Looking over, I see a race car game that opened up. Way back when, I used to be good at these.
“Race you,” I say, dropping his hand and taking off like I’m one of the kids. Pax laughs behind me, as does Jayce, though neither are moving fast.
“I’ll help you,” Jayce says, acting like my own cheering section.
With Pax in the seat next to me, it’s hard to focus on the screen. I turn the wheel to choose my car, finally selecting one that had a good ratio of speed and acceleration.
“Ready?” the computer voice says. A digital, scantily-clad woman appears on the screen between our two cars with a flag in hand and the beach behind her.
“Go!”
I stomp on the gas pedal and weave around pedestrians and other cars, trying to catch up to Pax who flew off the starting line like a pro. Damn, I may be rusty at this.
Jayce’s directions aren’t helping as I hit the wall for the third time, dropping all the way to last place. Why can’t this be like Mario Cart? I could really use a blue tortoiseshell right about now.
Needless to say, I didn’t win. Pax leans over, cracking his knuckles as he stretches his arms out in front of him. “I thought this was going to be a challenge.”
That’s it. There’s gotta be something I can beat him at.
I look around, desperate to find something that will give me hope.
Nothing. I suck at video games, always have, always will. Instead, I opt for one of the non-video games in the entire place.
“There,” I say, pointing to the basketball hoops.
“Really?” He looks me up and down. “You don’t seem like you have the height.”
I shove at his shoulder. “It’s not like I’m going against Shaq.” He’s a basketball player, right?
Pax laughs and leads the three of us to the hoops.
“Can I try?” Jayce asks.
I hand him one of the balls. “I don’t think you’re tall enough but go ahead and try.”
To my surprise, Pax lifts him off the floor, holding him high enough to take a shot. “Now he is.”
The ball goes in with ease, leaving the two of them whooping and hollering, slapping each other’s hands, finally ending in a fist bump. He’s turning my own son against me.
“Okay, Mama, your turn.”
I dribble the ball against the carpet – which is useless because it doesn’t bounce – and raise my arms to take a shot. The ball flies over the safety net, hits the front of the rim and straight down.
Pax holds up Jayce again, repeating the same motions as before. With each shot, mine fall short while theirs sinks in.
I give up.
When the buzzer sounds, I acknowledge my defeat. “That’s not fair. There’s two of you.”
Jayce hugs my waist. “It’s okay, Mama. We’ll teach you how to play.”
Pax snorts and turns away. I smile down at my son and ruffle his hair.
“Thanks, buddy.” Pulling out my phone, I glance at the time. “It’s getting late and you need to take a bath.”
A collective whine from the two of them brings a smile to my face. “Do we have to?”
I nod. “Yes. Time to go home.”
We walk to my car, letting Jayce crawl in first so I can secure his seat belt. Pax holds out his arm, wrapping it around my waist to stop my progress around the car.
“You know, I’m kinda dirty too. Wanna take a bath with me?”
Everything clenches south of my navel at the thought of being naked with him. I’m not sure if we’re ready to take that leap yet.
“We’ve had enough firsts for today. How about we save that one for later?”
He smiles, the corners of his eyes crinkling in the corners. “Can’t blame a guy for trying.” Leaning down, Pax kisses my lips, softly, tenderly, not taking it further than necessary in public and in case prying little eyes spot us.
“Did you drive to the beach? I suppose you need your bike.”
Pax shakes his head. “Nah, I walked. I can call an Uber.”
“Get in the car,” I say with authority. It’s not often I use my mom-voice, but it’s ridiculous that he even suggested getting a ride from someone else.
Once we’re all situated, I head down the road, following Pax’s directions to his place. Since I was passed out the first time I went there, and then too focused on the man between my legs the second time, I didn’t remember where it was. It doesn’t shock me that he’s down the street from Grounded. No wonder why he’s always there.
Pax opens Jayce’s door and gives him a high five. “See you later, bud.”
“Bye, Pax. Come play with me soon, okay?”
With a final fist bump, he blows it up as they both laugh. “You got it.”
I step out of the car and stand by the door. Pax traps me with his arms, caging me in while leaning into me.
“When can I see you again?”
I chew on my bottom lip. He frees it with his thumb, only to find it trapped again because I can’t stop fidgeting with him this close.
“My next day off is on Saturday. Weekends are better for me.”
He pushes a lock of hair away from my face, running the finger down my cheek until he’s cupping my jaw, tilting my head up to stare directly into his bright, hazel eyes.
“Then weekends it is. I want them all. Yours and Jayce’s. I had a lot of fun today. More fun than I’ve had in a while.” He kisses the tip of my nose. “But don’t think you’re off the hook during the week. I expect excellent customer service when I stop in for my coffee.”
I laugh, clinging to his shirt while resting my forehead against his shoulder. Every muscle in my body relaxes as he holds me in his arms. This feels more natural than anything else I’ve ever experienced. It pains me to walk away and leave him here.
“No fake smiles. Only the real ones for you.”

Revelação de Capa – Love Online

25/07/2018

O novo livro da autora Penelope Ward, Love Online, será publicado em 27 de agosto. Veja abaixo a sinopse e os links de compra. 

Sinopse:

Nós nos conhecemos no lugar mais improvável. Tudo começou inocentemente. Eu era “ScreenGod” e ela era “Montana”, mas claro que esses não eram nossos nomes reais, somente capas que nos escondíamos atrás.

Logando à noite e falando com ela era meu escape – meu santuário.

Seu nome real era Eden, eu descobriria rapidamente.

Desde a primeira vez que conectamos online, eu me descobri fascinado.

Ela era um vício.

No início, não sabíamos nada sobre nossas verdadeiras identidades… e ela inflexível sobre mantermos isto desse jeito. Mas anonimidade não tinha nenhum efeito em nossa crescente química. Pelo contrário, ela permitia nos abrir em maneiras que não faríamos normalmente.

Eden era engraçada, inteligente, linda – tudo que sempre quis em uma mulher.

Mas eu não podia realmente tê-la.

Eu tinha aceitado que tudo teria que ficar como era – até o dia que achei uma pista que me levou direto até ela.

Então eu decidi arriscar.

E isso foi quando nossa história de amor realmente começou.

*******************************

Synopsis:

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

We met in the least likely of places. It started out innocently enough. I was “ScreenGod” and she was “Montana,” but of course, those weren’t our actual names, just the virtual cloaks we hid behind.

Logging in at night and talking to her was my escape—my sanctuary.

Her real name was Eden, I’d soon come to find out.

From the first time we connected online, I found myself transfixed.

She was an addiction.

At first, we knew nothing about each other’s real identities…and she was adamant that we keep things that way. Anonymity had no effect on our unstoppable chemistry, though. If anything, it allowed us to open up even more in ways we may not have otherwise.

Eden was funny, intelligent, gorgeous—everything I’d ever wanted in a woman.

But I couldn’t really have her.

I had accepted things would have to stay the way they were—until the day I found a clue that led me straight to her.

So I took a chance.

And that was when our love story really began.

Sweet Sixteen by Brenda Rothert

Sinopse:

Dizem que rosas são as mais bonitas…

Gin Fielding está contando os dias até poder escapar a vida de cidade pequena em Roper, Missouri para ir para a NYU. Ela prefere se misturar, mas ela está longe de ser invisível. Mas quando ela protege um estudante mais novo de um bully, o foco se vira para ele de maneiras que ela nunca imaginou.

Eu digo que cada rosa tem seus espinhos…

As luzes das noites de sexta-feira brilham para Chase Matthews. Menino de ouro de Roper, Chase é considerado perfeito, aproveitando sua celebridade de cidade pequena que existe por ser o quarterback. Quando Gin defende sua irmã mais nova do Bully, ele decide emprestá-la seu poder de estrela e muda seu último ano de colégio de um jeito que ela nunca imaginou.

Mas talvez espinhos sejam parte da sua beleza.

Quando Gin declina o convite de Chase para ser parte do grupo de elite “Sweet Sixteen”, as repercussões viram suas vidas de cabeça para baixo. Em meio ao Caos, Gin e Chase acham consolo em um ao outro. Juntos, eles confrontam a feia verdade — as vezes a glória tem um lado negro.

*** Atenção – Sweet Sixteen é um livro juvenil com temas maduros, e é indicado para leitores maiores de 18 anos.

Book Blurb:

They say roses are the most beautiful…

Gin Fielding is counting the days until she escapes the small-town life of Roper, Missouri for college at NYU. She prefers to blend in, though she’s far from invisible. But when she protects a younger student from a bully, the spotlight turns on her in ways she never imagined.

I say that every rose has its thorn…

The Friday night lights shine bright on Chase Matthews. Roper’s golden boy, Chase can do no wrong, enjoying the small-town celebrity being the star quarterback brings. When Gin defends his little sister against a bully, he decides to lend her his star power and change her senior year in ways she never imagined.

But maybe the thorns are part of their beauty.

When Gin declines Chase’s invitation to be part of the elite Sweet Sixteen, the repercussions turn both their lives upside down. But amidst the chaos, Gin and Chase find solace in one another. Together, they confront the ugly truth– that sometimes glory has a dark side.

***Warning–Sweet Sixteen is an upper YA book with mature themes and is intended for readers 18+.

Resenha – A Little Bit Like Desire

23/07/2018

A Little Bit Like Desire, o novo romance MM contemporâneo  da autora Brooke Blaine está disponível! Leia abaixo nossa resenha e sinopse. Esta semana ainda teremos um trecho do livro para vocês. Boa leitura!

Resenha:

O que dizer de Shaw e Trent? Shaw nós já conhecemos em A little bit like love e ficamos curiosos com o misterioso Tatuador/barman que praticamente lê mentes. Trent é uma estrela do rock e sem rumo no momento. O que começou na escuridão pode florescer na luz do dia? Acompanhar a descoberta pessoal de Trent, junto com a descoberta emocional de Shaw, foi delicioso! Junte com tudo isso, reencontrar Jackson e Lucas e conhecer um pouco mais de Bash, e a história fica completa! Se você gosta de romances deliciosos, música, tatuagens, e verdadeiras amizades, eu super recomendo essa série!

Review:

Shaw e Trent. What to say about them? A tattoo artist slash bartender. A rock star in the outs with his profession. A dark room, a relationship in the open. Emotions, discoveries, muses and music. It was a delight to watch Trent rediscovering himself and Shaw discovering his emotions. Seeing Jackson and Lucas again  and discovering more about Bash was the cherry on the top. If you like romance, friendship, tattoo and music, this book is for you!

ALBLD-PRINT-FOR-WEB.jpg

What if you had everything in the world you wanted…except the man you never knew you needed?

Shaw Jennings, the seductive, enigmatic owner of Body Electric Tattoo works hard and plays even harder. He’s built a life he’s proud of, and though that doesn’t include a significant other, he’s got plenty of sexy men to keep his bed warm at night. None of them have ever made Shaw sit up and take notice for long, though. But that all changes when a famous rock star walks through his door.

Trent Knox had the world in the palm of his hand as the lead singer of TBD, one of the biggest rock bands in history…until the day he walked away. A getaway to South Haven Island seems like the perfect place for Trent to find himself again and reignite his passion for music. But what he never expects is to find his muse in a six-five, tatted-up badass whose sinful smile he can’t get out of his mind.

The only problem? Trent’s a notorious womanizer, and Shaw isn’t interested in being someone’s experiment—muse or otherwise. But in a town as small as this one, Shaw is finding it more and more difficult to keep the persistent rocker at arm’s length.

As the tension between them builds, maybe it’s time to finally give in and get carried away with something a little bit like…desire.

Resenha – Saving Beck

23/07/201825/07/2018

A resenha de hoje é do maravilhoso livro Saving Back da autora Courtney Cole, retratando os efeitos do vício em drogas tanto em um filho quanto em sua mãe. Abaixo você encontra nossa resenha, sinopse, um trecho de livro e links para todos os participantes desse Blog Tour. Boa leitura!

Resenha:

Sem palavras. Foi assim que eu me senti ao terminar de ler esse livro. Sabe aquele livro que vai te deixar pensando por dias, meses, ou até anos? Saving Beck é um deles. Inspirado na história real da luta contra as drogas pelo filho da autora, a verdade nua e crua do que um vício causa em uma família é retratado em suas páginas. Passeando entre cenas atuais e do passado, Courtney nos mostra o desenrolar de tudo, não medindo palavras ou sentimentos, destruindo seu coração e mostrando a dura realidade do vício. Extremamente bem escrito, você se sente dentro daquela família, lutando junto com todos, sentindo suas frustrações e analisando como seus atos influenciam a história. Existe algum culpado para o início de tudo? Existe mais de um culpado para o desenrolar da história? Ou são todos vítimas? Recomendo fortemente a leitura!

Review:

Speechless. That is how I was finishing this book. Courtney delivered a raw, honest story about addiction and what it can do with a family. It’s a book you’ll be thinking about for years to come. Loosely based in her son’s war against drugs, you can feel the truth behind those words. It broke my heart, but at the same time, I felt like part of the family and fighting with them for everything. I cried, I sobbed, and I’m another person after reading it. Days after finishing it, sometimes I’m trying to discovery if there was a reason for all that happened. Is there a culprit? More than one? Was everyone a victim? Read the book, you’ll not regret it.

Sinopse de SAVING BECK:

Chega um tempo em que oferecer a sua vida em troca da do seu filho não funciona, você realiza que isso nunca será o bastante.

A agulha fria na sua veia quente, no início era um conforto bem vindo para o meu filho. Mas isso se tornou o monstro que nos mantinha separados.

A Heroína mentiu, meu filho acreditou. Ela o levou para um mundo onde o último ano não existiu, para um lugar onde seu pai ainda estava vivo. O que Beck não entendia, é que ela não podia trazer seu pai de volta da morte. Ela não podia tirar sua dor, não permanentemente.

Você pensa que isso não pode acontecer com você, com seus filhos, sua família nunca estará nessa situação.
Eu também pensei isso. Mas você está errado.

Entre no nosso mundo, e veja você mesmo.
Assista meu garoto de ouro virar escravo para uma crescente epidemia.
Assista-me tentar salvá-lo.

Vício em drogas tem um preço.
Confie em mim, você não está equipado para pagá-lo.

Não perca esse romance que irá quebrar seu coração, evocar emoções e também esperanças – ele o deixará mudado para sempre. 

************************

SAVING BECK Synopsis:

There comes a time when offering your life for your child’s doesn’t work, when you realize that it’ll never be enough.

The cold needle in his warm vein was a welcome comfort to my son at first. But then it became the monster that kept us apart.

Heroin lied, and my son believed. It took him to a world where the last year didn’t happen, to a place where his father was still alive. What Beck didn’t understand was that it couldn’t bring his father back from the dead. It couldn’t take away his pain, not permanently.

You think it can’t happen to you, that your kids, your family, will never be in this situation.
I thought that too. But you’re wrong.

Step into our world, and see for yourself.
Watch my golden boy become a slave to this raging epidemic. Watch me try and save him.

Drug addiction comes with a price.
Trust me, you’re not equipped to pay it.

Don’t miss this heart wrenching, evocative, yet hopeful novel—it will leave you forever changed.

 

 

Excerpt:

I stare at the door, and this is the same room and that is the same door, and this is the same blue-tiled floor. For a minute, I’m back in that moment, and the doctor is coming in. I’d waited for hours and his face was so grave and I knew, I knew, before he could utter a word.

I shook my head because I didn’t want to hear what was coming next, but he spoke anyway.

Matt’s injuries were insurmountable, he’d said. We did everything we could.

But everything wasn’t enough, and my husband died.

“Is it a different doctor tonight?” I ask suddenly. “I need a different doctor. One who can save my son.”

I know it’s illogical. I know it was never the doctor’s fault, but it doesn’t matter because Jessica is nodding. “It’s a different doctor tonight,” she tells me. “Dr. Grant, and he’s very, very good.”

“Okay,” I whisper. “Okay.”

“If you need anything, you tell me,” Jessica says and I can see that she means it. She likes me. Or she feels sorry for me. It doesn’t matter which. I nod and she’s gone, and I’m alone.

Just like I was a year ago, and just like that night all I can do is pace.

I’m a caged mama wolf and there’s nothing I can do, but I know that if I stop moving, Beck might die. My energy is attached to his energy. I have to move. It all depends on me.

So I walk in circles.

I walk six paces, over the six white tiles, then I turn, taking three steps over the blue. I tread back six paces over the white, and then turn again, taking three more over the blue.

I will not stop, Beck. I won’t fail you. I won’t.

It becomes rhythmic, and I match my breaths with my steps. I’m a machine, a time-keeper, a being made of clock-work as I walk in circles, marking time. Every step I take, Beck is still alive. I feel it in my heart. It’s all up to me.
