Christmas Treats Blog Hop and Giveaway


Welcome, Christmas Treats Blog Hoppers!

Pull up a chair and I'll pour you some nog (with the good stuff, of course ;)and regale you with stories about billionaires and other fun-ness!


Christmas (or the week or so leading up to Christmas) is always crazy 'round these parts. I'm a bit of a procrastinator, so I usually wait until...right about now to do my shopping and packing lol. Basically, I turn myself into a nutcase, then somewhere along the way, it all falls together seamlessly. ;)

That doesn't leave too much time for reading unfortunately but this year, I'm about halfway done with Pretend Your Mine by Lucy Score (with plans to finish it this weekend, and then Christmas shop. Maybe.)

A Small Town Love Story

I only wanted to protect you...

Luke Garrison is a hometown hero, a member of the National Guard ready to deploy again. Strong, sweet, and sexy, he doesn't have a girlfriend and doesn't want one. When the wildly beautiful Harper stumbles into his life, though, he realizes that she's the perfect decoy. A fake girlfriend to keep his family off his back until he's out on another mission.

So what if a single bite of her lip sends his mind to wicked places? He can control himself. Can't he?

Harper was on her way to starting a new life... again. But something about Luke makes her want to settle down in this small town and make Luke's house a home. When his arms wrap around her like steel, she finally knows what it's like to feel safe. Protected.

One night of sleeping in the same bed turns into something much, much more... and soon Luke can't keep his mind off Harper's wide gray eyes, or his hands off of her luscious curves. He never thought he'd feel this way about a woman again. But he knows that he can't tell her the truth about his dark past, and she can't reveal to him what she's running from.

Anyway, this isn't a real relationship. It's only for a month. Only pretend. Until it isn't...

Omg. The way the characters pop off the page, the chemistry between Harper and Luke has practically melted my kindle (on several occasions)...it is a must read for romance fans. Luke Garrison is so alpha and down home and stubborn and HOT. Lord. Have. Mercy.

What are you guys reading during the holidays?

Jingle Book Blog Hop and Giveaway


First off, I want to say thanks for swinging by my page! Really excited about chatting with you all and sharing a bit of my Christmas quirks with you guys. :)

I'll dive right in.

Chocolate cake.


That's right -- gooey, moist, melt in your mouth chocolate cake. And not a conservative, this-is-our-first-date-so-give-me-a-itty-bitty-slice...I'm talking about a huge, calories be damned piece of cake.

Every Christmas, my mom cooks a handful of cakes for our Christmas feast...and a very special chocolate cake. As soon as it's bright enough outside to be considered morning, said chocolate cake is sliced, a big cup of milk or eggnog is poured, and we cozy up on the couch. That's one of our Christmas traditions...and definitely my favorite: breakfast for dessert on Christmas while we watch the twinkling lights on the tree.

How about you? What's your favorite Christmas tradition?

Yellow (The Safeword Series: Book Two) is Now Available!

Yellow (The Safeword Series: Book Two) is Now Available!


Will it hurt?"

The leather strips of the flogger danced across my skin. There had to be something seriously wrong with me because I wanted him to say yes.

I wanted to say green, more, and we hadn't even begun.

"Sin," he breathed into my ear, "I made you a promise...and I'm a man of my word." His voice darkened. "I'm gonna make you scream."

Sophia Slater is in the perfect position to write the story that will jumpstart her career. She's a new hire at Hush, a BDSM club where the rich and famous can live out their wildest fantasies. Her plan to infiltrate Hush went off without a hitch--until she spends a night with the man in the black mask.

Desmond O'Connell is still reeling from the loss that inspired him to create Hush in the first place. Attachments are dangerous, and falling for a submissive? Insane. The crazy thing is, he can't help but fall for the one submissive who wants more. Who wants all of him...

Yellow (The Safeword Series: Book Two) is the second book in a three part series.

Red (The Safeword Series: Book One) is Now Available!


"Do you surrender?" I repeated, dropping my cuff links in the jewelry tray near the door. "Will you trust me with your body? With your submission?"

Sophia Slater is dying for her big break. An expose on Hush, an elite, invitation-only BDSM club that boasts a member's list full of the rich and famous, is her way in…she just has to pretend she's a submissive.

When she snags a job at the club as a hostess, she begins plotting the story that will put her name on the map. But her lie lands her at sexy Dominant Desmond O'Connell's feet, and Sophia is thrust into his dark, dangerous world…

Red (The Safeword Series: Book One) is the first book in a three part series.

It's here! It's here! Thanks for coming with me on this crazy roller coaster ride inside Jacob's head...Ireland, Paris, crazy Alicia/crazy Brit, and Jacob and Lay weathering it together...I hope you guys have had as much fun reading as I've had writing it. <3


Billionaire Jacob Whitmore can remember when the biggest obstacles he faced with his wife was exploring the world of D/s and a celebrity ex determined to destroy their relationship. Kidnappings, crime lords, and now a truth that nearly brings him to his knees...any rational person would run for the hills. 

For Jacob, there's no escaping this. 

Can they weather the storm and finally find the peace they deserve? 

His Love is the final installment of the best-selling The Billionaire Dom Diaries series.

What's next?

Jacob and Lay will always be my first love and I def will do more stories about them. As far as my next release, I'm putting out something new and different--and hopefully y'all will be just as excited about it as I am! :)


Because You Want Me (Falling For You, Book One)--May 29
Because You Need Me (Falling For You, Book Two)--June 26
Because You Love Me (Falling For You, Book Three)--July 24

Penny Robertson just wanted to get through the events leading to her sister's wedding with as little drama as possible. Smile until it hurt, avoid questions about her lack of someone special, then put it all in the rearview.
She wasn't counting on traipsing to The Red Door Club--or meeting the drop-your-panties sexy businessman, Xander Wade. Xander has a proposition for her: if she agrees to pretend she's his girlfriend for a month, he'll go with her to the wedding...and pay her twenty thousand dollars.
It seems like easy money; a business arrangement that benefits them both, but she wasn't counting on falling for him.

Xander Wade works hard and plays even harder. CEO of a cutthroat investment firm, his philosophy on romance is no strings attached.
When his ailing father threatens to boot him from the company if he doesn't settle down, Xander makes a choice to play the game. He'll pretend he's the marrying type for a month, then go back to the jet set life. No complications. No love.
He wasn't betting on Penny. A month seemed like a breeze before her. Now, a month isn't long enough...

Because You Want Me (Falling For You, Book One) is the first book in the Falling For You trilogy.

~

Note: My most recent releases have been serial/installments...because I like to switch it up, the Falling For You series will be a little meatier. The books won't stand alone, but it won't be as cliffhanger-y as my last series with me putting it out as I write it. Any questions/comments/feedback is, as always, welcome and appreciated! <3


**And for Jacob and Lay fans...The Whitmores will be back in August!**
