Purchase on Amazon     Purchase on B&N

Henry Maximus is a super-hero-loving geek and proud of it. He’s also a genius when it comes to business. It’s how he earned the title of CEO of Maximus Gaming … not to mention the billions of dollars in his bank account. Henry’s tried living the life of a bachelor, but a different girl every night has left him wanting more. Needing more.

Aubrey Vincent is in love with her job. She’ll love it even more if she lands the promotion that gets her out of her parent’s attic. She loves it so much that she has no time for relationships, not that she was ever very good at them to begin with. Aubrey is perfectly happy with the random, nameless men she picks up at the bar. After a brief encounter with Aubrey on a business trip, Henry packs his bags and moves back to the small town where he grew up. Aubrey’s town. Aubrey attempts to find her way into Henry’s bed, while he tries everything to get into her heart. Will Henry’s plan to break down the walls Aubrey has built around her heart work or will his unbelievable million dollar offer scare her away?

About Adrianne James

Growing up, Adrianne couldn’t get her hands on enough books to satisfy her need for the make believe. If she finished a novel and didn’t have a new one ready and waiting for her, she began to create her own tales of magic and wonder. Now, as an adult, books still make up majority of her free time, and now her tales get written down to be shared with the world. During the day, Adrianne uses her camera to capture life’s stories for clients of all ages and at night, after her two children are tucked in bed; she devotes herself to her written work. Adrianne is living the life she always wanted, surrounded by art and beauty, the written word and a loving family. As a young adult and new adult author, Adrianne James has plans to bring stories of growing characters, a little romance, and perhaps a little magic and mythology down the line for her readers to enjoy.

Release Blitz- Surviving Love

“She is my heart and the other half of my life, and now, that life no longer exists." ~Drake Evans, Surviving Love

For Drake Evans, life was once happy. He was living the kind of existence that any man would envy. By his side was the woman he loved and a daughter he cherished. Life was truly perfect, until the day demons from the past came crashing into their perfect world, destroying everything he had been so sure would last forever.

Today, Drake’s life is shrouded in misery. Every day he faces the unyielding pain of losing the love of his life at the hands of a drug dealing murderer. On top of it all, he has to live with the anguishing betrayal caused by the devastating role his brother played in Presley’s death. Gone are the days of carefree happiness and impending futures. They've all been replaced with the shallow emptiness hollowing out his heart and the undeniable rage pumping through his veins. Drake is only moving through the motions of life, raising his daughter and earning a living, in the only way he can tolerate—alone.

Since the day she was banished from her family, Zoe Ledoux lives her life as a free spirit. For the past four years, Zoe’s been moving through life day by day, place by place. She never stays in one area long enough to establish relationships. She refuses to get close to anyone, protecting herself from the fear of once again being left behind. Then a turn of fate sends her to Sulfur Heights where she lands a job working as a bartender.

In a chance meeting, an instant connection forms, bringing together the wounded souls of Drake and Zoe. It is together that they begin to cope; to mend the brokenness of their pasts and feel what it is like to truly live again. However, will their newly formed friendship be enough to pull Drake and Zoe from their dark pasts? Can Drake overcome the fear of losing someone he loves and eradicate his anger just enough to let someone in? Will he learn that Surviving Love with Zoe is what he ultimately needs in order to be happy?

I yank open the door and pull the half empty bottle of whiskey left in the cupboard. Unscrewing the cap, I tip the glass to my lips and allow a few more tears to fall down my face.

“Here’s to the rest of a useless life,” I toast to no one and chug down the whiskey. It instantly burns and calms my insides. The raging ocean of emotions I can’t seem to shake is finally subduing, and it’s welcome. Jack Daniels is always welcome to ease my agony. Always.

I rip my tucked-in shirt from the waistband of my pants and move down the back stairs. The last time I wore this fucking shirt was when I saw Presley in rehab. I will never wear this piece of shit again. Still grasping the bottle, I rip open my shirt, popping buttons as my chest is exposed to the cold, damp air.

I walk to the driveway and see the spot where I last held Presley alive. My boots scuff the pavement when I walk toward the dreaded spot. I hold the bottle to my lips again and chug. Then again and again. It’s burning my gut and suffocating my throat, but I keep gulping it down. My legs give out, collapsing to the concrete. The pain stings when my knees connect with the ground. I relish in it. It’s more welcome than the pain in my heart.

“This is the only way I can get you out of my mind,” I whisper out loud to no one, or maybe to her, but I don’t fucking know. “I need you out of my mind. I need peace for just a day. I love you, Presley, but I just need peace.” I expel a deep breath and choke back another drink. “Don’t hate me, baby, but please…give me some peace.”

I lay down on the cold concrete just as the rain begins to pick up again. I don’t care. I want to be in this spot. I want to be with her. And I want to be numb. I choke back a few more drinks until the bottle is empty then close my eyes, envisioning only her honey-brown irises and the world I will no longer possess. ~ Drake Evans, Surviving Love

Title: Retribution Genre: Contemporary Romance Organized by: Indie Sage, LLC Release Date: June 17, 2014

Synopsis

I’m a woman on a mission. I make my own rules. I face my own consequences. Much of what I’ve done would horrify you; or at the very least make you wonder why I am the way I am. I’ve been broken one too many times, my confidence and self-worth reduced to nothing. I’ve been lied to over and over again. I’ve been treated like shit for the last time. Now, I take control. I’m no longer the weak, helpless woman you once knew. I am stronger. I am fearless. I don’t care who I hurt. The aim of my game is retribution. If you’ve ever hurt me, I’m coming for you. Not even love is going to stop me.

About the Author

Missy lives in a small town in Central Victoria with her husband, and her confused pets (a dog who think she’s a cat, a cat who thinks he’s a dog…you get the picture). When she’s not writing, she can usually be found looking for something to read.

Author interview- Jessica Gibson

Today I’m very lucky to be interviewing Jessica Gibson author of The Harder I Fall

Hi Jessica, thank you for agreeing to this interview. What are your ambitions for your writing career?

I think my ambitions are like most authors, I would love to be on the top 100 on Amazon, and NY Times Bestseller’s List. That would be like a dream. I really just want the write stories that people want to read.

Which writers inspire you?

There are so many. When I was younger, Nora Roberts was my idol, I devoured her books. Now, some of the amazing indie authors out there are doing some amazing things, and it’s so inspiring to see them hit it big.

So, what have you written?

I started out writing paranormal, I have a vampire series called the Blood Ties series, and a YA paranormal book called Haunted U. Then I switched gears and started writing contemporary romance and I have to say I love it. Dressed in White was my first contemporary romance, and now I have The Harder I Fall.

Give us an insight into your main character. What does he/she do that is so special?

Becca is so focused, I wish I had some of her drive. She’s also so fragile, you just want to protect her from everything bad in the world.

What are you working on at the minute?

Right now I’m working on The Deeper We Get which is sort of a spin off from The Harder I Fall and features Becca’s brother Chad.

What’s it about?

It flashes forward 4 years from when The Harder I Fall left off and will show Chad finding who he is.

What genre are your books?

Contemporary Romance and Paranormal Romance

What draws you to this genre?

I love contemporary because the characters are so real, and it’s real life situations they are in. With paranormal, I just love the fantasy aspect of creating worlds and different beings.

Which actor/actress would you like to see playing the lead character from your most recent book?

Haha, this is actually the first book where I did not have a set cast in my head. The characters were so real to me in my head that I just couldn’t cast them.

How much research do you do?

With this book I actually spoke with a working ballerina so I could get all the terms right. I like things to be as correct and true to life as possible.

Have you written any other novels in collaboration with other writers?

I haven’t, but I think it would be a lot of fun to do it!

When did you decide to become a writer?

In 2011 when my husband told me to get off my butt and actually do it lol.

Why do you write?

I write because the stories need to be told. I love the whole process of seeing the character’s and how they develop.

What is the hardest thing about writing?

The end of the book. I hate saying goodbye

What was the hardest thing about writing your latest book?

The Harder I Fall was an emotional book to write, I got wrapped up in it a lot. I sobbed during some scenes.

What is the easiest thing about writing?

The storyline itself, it just sort of flowed out of me.

How long on average does it take you to write a book?

2-5 months, depending on how much time I have.

Do you ever get writer’s Block?

All the time! Which is usually why I write in a few at a time so I can switch to one that is flowing.

Do you think that the cover plays an important part in the buying process?

I really do! The book cover will sell your book. A crappy one will cause it to fail.

How are you publishing this book and why?

Indie published, because I liked having the control.

Any amusing story about marketing books that happened to you?

Not as of yet, but I’m sure there will be some in the future.

What’s your views on social media for marketing?

Social media is so important! It’s really the only way we can get our names out there. If you put out a book and don’t do any marketing, you may as well have not put it out at all.

What is your favourite book and why?

Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. I love the history and the romance.

What is your favourite quote?

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. -C. S. Lewis

What is your favourite movie and why?

Hmmmm, probably Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Universe or Kiss, Kiss Bang, Bang. I like them both because they are clever and funny.

Where can you see yourself in 5 years time?

Hopefully on top of the charts! I want to be writing still because I love it so much.

What advice would you give to aspiring writers?

Keep going! Don’t quit. Also, hire a professional editor, and get someone to do an amazing cover for you.

Where do you see publishing going in the future?

I feel like print books will be a thing of the past. E-readers will be where all books will be.

How can readers discover more about you and you work?

Synopsis

Nothing is going Lizzie’s way. Her sex life is unsatisfying, her job sucks and she has more debt than
she needs thanks to her loser brother. Against her better judgment, she lets her best friend sign her
up to be auctioned off at a high-rolling venue called the Club. Agreeing to a weekend of adventurous
sex with a stranger is one thing, but being bought by the brothers who own the Club means Lizzie is
up for a weekend beyond her wildest fantasies.

Ryan and Lizzie hit it off, in bed and out, but it’s his quiet brother, Trace, that has her heart pounding
and her panties in a twist. But is Lizzie what Trace needs? Having been burned before, will he take a
chance on what his heart is telling him or trust his instincts and send her home after their weekend
is over?

SHORT EXCERPTS

“That can’t be legal, surely. And even if it was, no. No way am I going to let you auction me off to the
highest bidder for a weekend of sex.” Lizzie sat stunned on the couch, her gaze on Bel.

“No, of course not. Sex is natural anyway, and you’re always complaining you never get anything
worth talking about. Why not use your God-given charms to earn a decent living.
Allan grabbed her chin in his hand and twisted her face from side-to-side. “First things first,

hairdresser and spa. Lots of waxing to do from what I can see. Do you wax down below, darling?”

“No, it’s excruciating. Why any woman would want to go the whole Brazilian is beyond me. I’ll
never be able to wipe my butt again after that. Certainly never look that poor woman in the eye again
either. I’m so embarrassed.”

“Listen to him.” Trace walked out onto the deck, pulling off his tie and undoing the buttons on his
white shirt. His jacket was in his other hand and he dropped it casually over an empty chair. “I on the
other hand, will say whatever I need to if it gets me what I want.”

He reached out, cupped his hand around the back of her neck and pulled her toward his lips. With soft
lips, Ryan kissed her cheek, working his way around to her neck. Touching the skin underneath her
ear made her gasp and he licked down her throat as she arched her neck sideways for him.
She glanced back over her shoulder and saw Trace watching them with cool calm eyes. He still had
a drink in his hand and saluted her with the glass. The hot mouth latching onto her distended nipple
made her turn her head back to Ryan.

“I didn’t expect to like it so much though. I feel like a slut.” She ran her hand over her forehead and
blew out a breath.

“I feel like a slut being delivered like this.” A tremor ran through her skin and he kissed her mouth
before the tears he sensed under the surface filled her eyes. She moved under his lips, meeting him as
his mouth devoured hers hungrily.
Lizzie looked at him and he noticed the uncertainty in her eyes again. “Perverse, maybe. I think my
brother has said more than once I like control. Buying sex gives me that. Is that a problem for you?”
He grinned at her and held out his hand. “Look, the glass is one way. Nobody can see you unless I
change the setting. Believe me, none of my customers are going to see me butt naked fucking in my
office.”

Title: Reveal (Cryptid Tales #1)

Author: Brina Courtney

Genre: YA Paranormal Romance

You think seeing ghosts is weird? Tell me something I don't know.

Shay Tafford's childhood has been fatherless, filled instead with memories of speaking to the dead. She is forced to hide her unique ability from those living around her. That's why it's been comforting to have Jeremy, a child ghost, as her confidante. But recently he's been absent, perhaps lost as her father is. When Shay meets Hugh, the guy she's had a crush on for weeks, and finds he can speak to ghosts too, she's just starting to find a normalcy in her life. But as Hugh reveals the truth to Shay, about who she really is and about what it is she can do, he erases all chances she had at a normal existence. Turns out talking to ghosts is just scratching the surface of her genetically engineered gifts. Shay learns she may be part of an age old prophecy that could save the entire race of cryptids. But can she?

Quotes

"So here I am with a dead girl in my car, in a super creepy forest, stalking a potentially dead father…yeah, not one of my brightest moments."

"She sighs, “Shay you can’t live your life in fear. If you do there’s just no point in living."

"He turns and leaves, heading towards the math building and though I hate to see him leave, I do love to watch him walk away."
