We’re kicking off the month-long celebration with three new Brazens, each with a smoking hot military man front and center and each for just 99 cents!



Marine for Hire, by Tawna Fenske


She thought she’d sworn off military men for good…
Sam Kercher is every inch a wickedly hot Marine. Tall. Sexy. Lethal. When his best friends call in a favor, Sam is forced to face an entirely new line of duty—playing nanny for their newly divorced sister and her squirming seven-month-old twin boys. If Sam can dissemble an M16 in his sleep, diaper duty should be a cakewalk…right?
Unfortunately, Operation Nanny isn’t quite that simple. Sheridan has sworn off overbearing military men, so Sam must protect her from her dirtbag ex without revealing just how much he has in common with her brothers. Or that he’s been ordered not to touch her. Ever. Problem is, Sheri’s one hell of a gorgeous woman, capable of making this hard-bodied Marine even harder. And Sam wants her bad.
Protect the girl. Care for the babies. Hide his identity. And keep his hands off. But even the most disciplined Marine has weaknesses...and Sheridan is one Sam might not be able to resist.




Staking His Claim, by Tessa Bailey


He wants her. All of her.
NYPD sniper Matt Donovan is in Hell. Instead of driving his best friend’s little sister home from college, he’s stuck with her roommate—a fresh-faced ray-of-sunshine with a body that makes grown men weep. There’s no way he’ll allow himself to taint the little vixen, no matter how hard she tries to tempt him, so he resigns himself to the longest—and hardest—drive of his life.
Matt’s obvious attraction suits grad student Lucy Mason just fine. She had no idea her brother’s best friend was so deliciously hot. Knowing he’d never have his wicked way with his buddy’s sister, she lies about her identity and seduces him. But Matt’s no fumbling college boy. His desires run deep—and dark—and he wants to teach Lucy what wicked really means.
Matt’s demanding appetites only make Lucy want more. But when her cover's blown, he’s furious—even as his hunger for her becomes insatiable. Matt can’t trust anyone, least of all himself. And he knows all too well that darkness always destroys the light…




Temporarily Yours, by Jen McLaughlin, writing as Diane Alberts


This soldier’s the perfect hoax…if she doesn’t fall for him first.
Stats whiz Kayla Moriarity knows her way around numbers and algorithms. Men, on the other hand, are unsolvable equations. Now Kayla’s en route to her sister’s wedding—without the fictional boyfriend she invented for her family. Fortunately, her plane comes complete with complimentary cocktails and a ridiculously hot ex-marine in the seat beside her. And that’s all it takes for Kayla’s inhibitions to go sailing out the airlock...
Cooper Shillings has soft spot for people in trouble, but he certainly wasn’t expecting to land in it himself—and definitely not while getting naughty mid-air with a sexy southern belle. When he hears Kayla’s predicament, however, he offers his services as a stand-in boyfriend. After all, he’s heading overseas soon...and how could he refuse a little no-strings wickedness?
It’s the perfect plan. And all Kayla has to do is ensure her family falls for the ultimate bluff, without falling for it—and Cooper—in the process...



We appreciate you and want readers to be able to fill up their eReaders all month long with great books at introductory prices. Thank you for an amazing first three years. This is just the beginning.

Cover Reveal ~ Transcendence by Shay Savage

Genre: Pre-historical Romance
Expected Release Date: 2.14.14
Cover revealed Presented by
Synopsis:
It’s said that women and men are from two different planets when it comes to communication, but how can they overcome the obstacles of prehistoric times when one of them simply doesn’t have the ability to comprehend language?

Ehd’s a caveman living on his own in a harsh wilderness. He’s strong and intelligent, but completely alone. When he finds a beautiful young woman in his pit trap, it’s obvious to him that she is meant to be his mate. He doesn’t know where she came from; she’s wearing some pretty odd clothing, and she makes a lot of noises with her mouth that give him a headache. Still, he’s determined to fulfill his purpose in life – provide for her, protect her, and put a baby in her.

Elizabeth doesn’t know where she is or exactly how she got there. She’s confused and distressed by her predicament, and there’s a caveman hauling her back to his cavehome. She’s not at all interested in Ehd’s primitive advances, and she just can’t seem to get him to listen. No matter what she tries, getting her point across to this primitive, but beautiful, man is a constant – and often hilarious – struggle.

With only each other for company, they must rely on one another to fight the dangers of the wild and prepare for the winter months. As they struggle to coexist, theirs becomes a love story that transcends language and time.

Reaper's Legacy (Reaper's MC #2) by Joanna Wylde


WELCOME TO THE CLUB

Eight years ago, Sophie gave her heart—and her virginity—to Zach Barrett on a night that couldn’t have been less romantic or more embarrassing. Zach’s step-brother, a steely-muscled, tattooed biker named Ruger, caught them in the act, getting a peep show of Sophie he’s never forgotten.



She may have lost her dignity that fateful night, but Sophie also gained something precious—her son Noah. Unfortunately, Zach’s a deadbeat dad, leaving Ruger to be Noah’s only male role model. When he discovers Sophie and his nephew living in near poverty, Ruger takes matters into his own hands—with the help of the Reapers Motorcycle Club—to give them a better life.

Living with outlaw bikers wasn’t Sophie’s plan for her son, but Ruger isn’t giving her a choice. He’ll be there for Noah, whether she wants him or not. But Sophie does want him, has always wanted him. Now she’ll learn that taking a biker to bed can get a girl dirty in every way…

4.5 Stars


Holy shit on a stick. That was…unprecedented. 



Ahhhh, Ms. Joanna Wylde. I just couldn’t resist reading this. I waited a long ass time for the next book in your Reapers’ Series. After I read Reaper’s Property, I craved the next book. You so did not disappoint me with this. It was exactly what I wanted and it certainly brought me out of my book funk. So for that, I thank you! 

Now onto Sophie and Ruger’s story. 

“Answer one question for me – total truth,” he said slowly. I nodded. “Was it real? Yesterday, when I kissed you, when I sucked on your tits and fucked you with my hand? How about when I went down on you four years ago and you screamed my name? Before Zach found us and it all fell to shit. Was that fake?”
“No,” I whispered. “Aside from Noah, that’s the only part of those years I want to remember, because it was beautiful, Ruger. Whatever else happened, you gave me beautiful.” 

Sophie first met Ruger when she was only sixteen. Their meeting wasn’t the best of circumstances either. She was caught by surprise when Ruger walked in on her while losing her v-card to his stepbrother Zach. Eight months later, Ruger was helping her with the birth of Noah, Ruger’s nephew and Zach’s son. Ruger’s life was forever changed after he literally caught Noah during childbirth. He knew he would do anything for him and Sophie.

“You just admitted you’re mine,” he replied slowly. “I’ve been wonderin’ if I could take you – whether Ishould take you. I keep thinkin’ about Noah and whether it’s right for him, but now I get none of it matters, because you’re mind already. You’ve been mine for a hell of a long time and I just didn’t realize it.” 

Ruger is member of the Reapers MC. He loves the life and the freedom to do whatever and whomever he pleases. But no matter how much freedom he had, he knew he would drop everything to help Noah and Sophie whenever they needed him. He thought his connection to her was only because of Noah, but he knew there was more to it. Circumstances brought Sophie and Noah back after four years of being away from him. How long can he resist her, especially with her being so close? 

Sophie’s situation was pretty low. Single mother with a deadbeat ex who never paid child support. Ruger helped her and Noah out of a situation and practically forced her to move in with him. He claims he only wants to keep them safe, but both knew differently. 

There was always a connection between the two ever since they met. We also learn that there was more to their relationship four years ago and why she left. Now that she’s back, she wants more from Ruger, but he’s not ready to settle down for anyone. With Noah in their lives, Sophie knows she knows she needs more from Ruger and is constantly battling her feelings. This is where the heart of the story really lies.

“This whole situation is like a great big zit that needs popping,” she continued. “The damage is already done – your face looks like shit and no concealer’s gonna cover it. You might as well squeeze hard and get your money shot. You’ll both feel better afterward.” ~ Kimber (Sophie’s friend)

Talk about sexual tension! These two needed to get it on or move forward. I was glued to this story thinking oh my god! Is this where they finally give in? I will not lie, these two fought their connection with every fiber of their being. Sorry if that’s dramatic, but it’s so true. I didn’t care though. I knew sooner or later, someone (or both) was going to crack. 

Yea. This was really good, not as good as book one, but pretty damn close. This was just the right amount of sexual frustration, angst, drama and it contained a whole lotta steam. Normally I would get pissed off when the sexual tension would get to be overwhelming, but I did not mind this at all. I don’t know if it was the writing or something else altogether. One thing I know is that I love this series. I’m already counting down until Em and Hunter’s book comes out. With what went down with Em in this book, I was already salivating at what’s going to happen to her and Hunter. Oh, but wait! What about Painter? Yea. Cannot fucking wait!



Ok, so seriously, what's NOT to love about a hot, tattooed, bad-ass biker with a strategically placed, delicious piercing? NOTHING! THAT'S WHAT!!

Let me just begin by saying I love Ruger!! Now, I didn't love him right away mind you. He was such a contradiction, but you just knew he was a great guy, I mean what kind of story would this be if the hero was awesome?!! OMG, the fingerprint tattoos melted me, total teary eyed chick moment for me!!(Once you read it, you'll understand)



Sophie and Ruger are great together! From the very beginning when Ruger's no good stepbrother Zach took her V card and knocked her up, Ruger was the one to step up and be there for her. He even delivered her baby on the side of the road! They spent the next 7 years or so fighting their amazing chemistry. That is until Sophie makes a mistake that puts Noah in danger and Ruger decides enough is enough and takes them home with him. This is where life gets really interesting!

Sophie doesn't understand or trust the life of the Motorcycle club. She believes the stereotype that they are all criminals and incredibly dangerous and absolutely will not live that life. That is my only real complaint, IMO it took Sophie wayyyy to long to realize how much Ruger loved her and that she belonged in, and was safe with the club.

Of course Ruger didn't make that real easy for her, with his Alpha cave man, biker attitude and no need to explain things to her, he just expected her to go along with no question! Hell, it was like he didn't even know her!! :)

But let me just say that once they did get together it was EXPLOSIVE!

“I think you're a raging asshole. Ruger laughed. "Yeah, well I think you're a bitch, but my cock likes you, so we'll figure something out.” 

Yeah, this is what their relationship was like but it was a hell of a ride, literally!! There is a lot of drama and some serious pain and revelations along Ruger & Sophie's journey but it's never boring!

This is the second book in the Reaper's MC Series and I hope there are many more to come because I love the Reaper's and I especially love their motto!!

"Fuck with us, we'll fuck you back. Harder. Always."


Archer's Voice (Sign of Love #4) by Mia Sheridan


When Bree Prescott arrives in the sleepy, lakeside town of Pelion, Maine, she hopes against hope that this is the place where she will finally find the peace she so desperately seeks. On her first day there, her life collides with Archer Hale, an isolated man who holds a secret agony of his own. A man no one else sees.

Archer's Voice is the story of a woman chained to the memory of one horrifying night and the man whose love is the key to her freedom. It is the story of a silent man who lives with an excruciating wound and the woman who helps him find his voice. It is the story of suffering, fate, and the transformative power of love.


THIS IS A STAND-ALONE NOVEL. The first three books in the series need not be read to enjoy this book. New Adult Contemporary Romance: Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

Five Stars

Archer Hale’s voice was one of the most beautiful things in the whole wide world. 

It’s official. Mia Sheridan is a writing genius and with this installment, she has cemented herself as one of my favorite authors. This is the fourth book in the Sign of Love Series and I just cannot get enough of it. Not only is each book a standalone, but it seems like each book gets better and better. The Hero in this book floored me. Archer made me a swoony mess. 

The most beautiful kind of fate. 

Bree Prescott was running away from a nightmare. Months prior to hopping into her car headed to the small town of Pelion, Maine, she witnessed the murder of beloved father. She wanted to start fresh, even if it was only a temporary escape. What she didn’t expect is to meet the town recluse, Archer Hale. 

Something about Archer Hale intrigued me - something I couldn’t put my finger on. Something that went beyond the fact that he couldn’t hear or speak and that I was intimately acquainted with that particular disability. I pondered it for a minute, but couldn’t come up with an answer. 

Archer Hale is an enigma - to the town, to its people and especially to Bree. He lost his parents and his Uncle Connor when he was only seven years old. He also lost the ability to speak that fateful night. He lived with his rather strange Uncle Nathan since that night, but when he lost him, he found himself alone; his existence secluded one. He rarely ventures outside his property. The townsfolk are very weary of him. To them, he just…exists. When he met Bree, he couldn’t believe that this woman wanted to know him…Him! She made him believe that he mattered, that his voice mattered. 

I want to be able to love you more than I fear losing you, and I don’t know how. Teach me, Bree. Please teach me. Don’t let me destroy this. 

Archer is such a lost soul. I love Heroes like him. He’s vulnerable, but it wasn’t his handicap that made him such. It was everything around him – the townsfolk, his so-called family, and even his looks – the full on beard and long hair did nothing but make him more invisible. His long isolation only added to his insecurities and it seemed that no amount of reassurance from Bree could ever ease him. So where do they go from here? 

Only you, only ever you. 

I loved this story. Everything about it just clicked. I easily connected with the H/h, especially with Archer. I adored him so much. As for Bree, she was absolutely perfect for him; they were designed for each other and once you read this you will come to the same conclusion too. And their chemistry?! Seriously HOT!Yea. I didn’t think it was possible, but I think this may be my favorite so far of the series. Whatever Mia Sheridan publishes next, I will automatically buy it. This was pure gold. 

It’s just…life. And no matter who we are, we have to take the hand we’re dealt, crappy though it may be, and try our very best to move forward anyway, to love anyway, to have hope anyway…to have faith that there’s a purpose to the journey we’re on.
…And try to believe that maybe more light shines out of those who have the most cracks.
