Title: Destroying the Soul
Series: Destroyed Series #2
Authors: L. Grubb & Abigail Davies
Cover Designer: Clarissa Wild

Goodreads:


Synopsis:
I’m a man with a troubled past. Growing up with a drug addict for a mother and trying to be both mom and dad for my little brother was hard, but I was determined for him to make something of himself, to help get him in the best college out there and get him away from the hellhole we call home; even if it took everything in me.

The plan was to make my business legit and make some real money so I could make sure he had everything he needed. 
I was on a one track mission, bounding ahead with tunnel vision.
That was until her. 
Until I saw her sweet face behind the counter of the coffee shop and suddenly, I had another focus.

She had an aura of sadness about her that drew me in. Her softly spoken words made me wish I could listen to her all day long. I made it my mission to make her smile whenever I got the chance to see her. The invisible thread that connected us started getting smaller and smaller as time went on, bringing us closer than I’d ever been to anyone before.

At least, I thought we were close. I had no idea that she was suffering at the hands of a monster. A monster who did everything he could to keep me from her. He ripped me away from her when she needed me the most and I was powerless to fight against the law, even if I didn’t break it.

My life was turned upside down and the worst of it was leaving her without getting to tell her how I really felt. I never once forgot about our connection and when I finally got out of prison and went to check on my Ivy League brother, I never expected to see her there. 

I knew it would be hard to explain why I just up and left without a word, but I never thought it would be near impossible to even talk to her, to explain that I didn’t even have a choice in leaving. 

Then he turns up, the monster that haunts her memories. I won’t let him keep me away from her again and I certainly won’t let him hurt her.

I’ll do anything to protect her. Torture, maim, kill. And I’ll do it all without a second thought or conscience.

About the Authors:

L. Grubb:

Lucii is your typical British girl, hates the sun and hibernates when summer arrives! She lives at home with her 3 year old daughter, where they spend the day watching Frozen and playing playdoh.

After reading the Fifty shade phenomenon, she went onto social media to seek other authors writing the same or similar genres.

Inspiring dreams took a back burner while she learned the book community and met a bunch of amazing authors and readers alike.

A year later she decided to start writing, hoping against hope that her friends and fellow readers will like what she brings to the table.

Book Tour- The Tattered Gloves by J.L Berg

ttg-amazon

About THE TATTERED GLOVES

Head down. Don’t look up. Never make eye contact. Those were the words I lived by growing up, the words that protected me in an unsafe home. But words are only letters and eventually even they couldn’t keep his hands off me.
Hoping to leave behind the shattered life of my past, I find myself in a boring, small town, with an aunt I’ve never met and at a school I loathe.
But soon I learn, not everything in this world is as black and white as I’ve determined. Sometimes those we are so quick to judge often need a second, third or even fourth time to make a first impression.
And often, there are friendships and even love waiting just around the corner, if we are brave enough to take the first step.
Am I brave? Or will I hide behind these tattered gloves of mine forever?

My Review 

I really enjoyed this book from J.L Berg. It's been a while since I read a YA read and this was a great choice. The characters in the book were well developed. Willow the lead was great strong lead and those characters around her were a great support. It's a very heart felt, heart warming emotional read. I was quickly hooked in to the story and wanted to keep reading. The book dealt with some tough issues and I had tears in my eye's whilst reading. Fans of YA reads will love this one.

Release Blitz- Thanos by Ella Frank



Thanos by Ella Frank
Series: Masters Among Monsters #3
Publication Date: January 26th, 2017
Genre: Paranormal Romance






Synopsis

CHARMED FOR LIFE?

Thanos Agapiou has always been a charmer. For over two millennia, the vampire had no problem acquiring whom and what he wanted with a flash of his handsome smile. He took for granted the boyish good looks he presumed he’d possess for the rest of eternity.

How very wrong he was.

A nearly fatal attack distorted his entire existence. With his appearance now matching the title many have bestowed their kind—monster—he hides away from the world and all of those who know him, including his Ancient, Eton.
Until one night when a stranger draws him out from the shadows.

OR CURSED FOR ETERNITY?

Ever since Paris Antoniou was thrust into a world of vampires, his reality has become stranger than the history and the myths he’s studied for the past decade.

When he learns the truth about his origins and the power he wields, his confusion and fear have him running for his life. What he doesn’t expect is to run into the arms of Thanos—a vampire who doesn’t intimidate him as much as he intrigues him.

WHAT HAS THE POWER TO MAKE YOU WANT TO SURVIVE?

As their worlds collide under extraordinary circumstances, an attraction neither can deny takes hold. But will that be enough to save Thanos from his demons, or will he condemn Paris to his fate?

Destinies have been changed. Lines have been crossed. And, with tales of the vampire race coming to an end, who will make the ultimate sacrifice?
After all, in a world run by vampires and gods, only one can be the true Master among the Monsters.

Release Blitz- If I Dream by K.M Scott




Title: If I Dream
Series: Corrupted Love #1
Author: K.M. Scott
Genre: Erotic Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 24, 2017



Blurb

If I dream, will you dare?

All I wanted was my freedom. It's all I'd dreamed of from the first time I stood in the ring. Until I entered Robert Erickson's world. Until Serena. Cruelty and ugliness surrounded me, but she was beautiful and good. I wanted to protect her from her father's world, even though I knew being with her could mean the end of me.

I wanted for nothing as the daughter of one of the richest men in the world. But all my father's money couldn't buy what I truly craved. Until Ryder. I wanted all he was, all he brought out in me. All he made me desire.

Our love was forbidden by the one person who had the power to harm us. We dreamed of more than living in that world, though. We dreamed of having it all, but did we dare?





My Review 

This was a great start the series and it gave me some serisuly good feels. 

It's a heartbreaking and emotional read and I hope that we don't have to wait for the next one. This is beautifully written by the author. It did take me a little while to get in to the story but once it hot around 40% I was hooked.  The characters were all well developed and this came out in the emotion in the story. I can't wait to read the next book.

Read a Sneak Peek:

My normally quiet nature seemed to take a backseat when it came to this guy. He made me angry, flustered, and… something else I couldn’t put my finger on. Annoyed maybe? No, that wasn’t it. “What is your problem?” I blurted out, chasing behind him. “My problem?” he asked, spinning around to face me. Suddenly, he was too close. I could feel his breath on my face, his presence looming over me. I took a step back. He seemed to notice the unease settle around me, and a bit of the edge he carried chipped away. His next words were said with a slightly softer quality. “Look, maybe we got off on the wrong foot. I didn’t mean to sound so harsh, but if the store doesn’t do well, it’s on me. My dad thinks it’s a waste of time.” “And you don’t?” I didn’t know what a rich, popular kid wanted with an old bookstore, but I kept my mouth shut. He shrugged. “We have nothing in this crummy town, not even a movie theater. Last month, I wanted to see the new Marvel movie, and my friends and I had to drive thirty minutes away just to see it.” “Haven’t you ever heard of Netflix?” I asked. “It’s not the same as seeing it on the big screen.” “I wouldn’t know,” I replied. “What?” He grinned. “You’ve never been to a movie?” The way he said it was meant as a joke, but all laughter died when I shook my head. “Seriously?” “I mean, I’ve watched several on TV but never at a theater,” I answered, not able to meet his stare. “I thought you were from the city.” My eyes flew up to his. “Oh, so you really did think you were invisible. That doesn’t work around here, Mittens.” My brows furrowed as I tried to figure out what he meant until he pointed to my gloves. Mittens. Cute. “My name is Willow,” I corrected. Sam just kept smiling. “Word of advice, Mittens. The less you try to be invisible, the less interested people will be.” I let out a heavy sigh, snatching the remainder of the books from the counter. As he’d reminded me earlier, I wasn’t being paid to mess around. And I sure as hell didn’t need life lessons from an over privileged daddy’s boy. I hated this place.

Release Blitz- Torn Between Two by Mia Kayla




Title: Torn Between Two
Series: Torn Duet #1
Author: Mia Kayla
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 23, 2017



Blurb

I believe in fairy tales — the kind where a knight in shining armor sweeps me off my feet. Coming from a broken home, fairy tales housed the hope I clung to. Never in my life did I imagine two knights coming into my life— two knights that wore very different armor.

A rockstar versus a lawyer.
Fast and furious versus deliberate and calculated.
Intense and passionate versus strong and devoted.
Chaos versus stability.

I fell in love with one in the craziness of a concert.
I fell in love with the other in the silence of his compassion.

And now I am Torn Between Two.


ADD TO GOODREADS

My Review 

I have been a fan of Mia Kayla's other books so I was looking forward to reading this story- especially with the love triangle aspect, which I normally love or hate. For me this story worked perfectly and I can't wait for book 2.

Sam was a great female character and very likably, as were the two male leads Hawke and Josh. I was hooked from the beginning and the author certainly took us ride with these characters. They was plenty of twists and turns. It is fairly quick paced read.

This was a great heartfelt, sexy read and I can't wait to get my hands on book 2.

Life is made up of choices.
Single choices like bricks laid out in a path. A path that leads to your future.

At twenty four years old, I would have never guessed I would be stuck between two men—two men from opposite spectrums of the universe.
Their lives, their worlds, their demeanor is as different as the darkest of nights and the lightest of days.

I love them both, but I have to choose.
There is only one choice I can make.
And I choose forever.

Release Blitz- Courage to Fight by Pavan Kaur

Title: Courage to Fight
Author: Pavan Kaur 
Genre- Romance 
My Rating- 5 Stars 


About 

He told me he loved me.
I put myself in a place where I thought I would be safe again. Never did I think I would hurt more than I did before. But I do.
I let the wall fall around my heart, only for it to get burned.
I cried, but now I’m back and I won’t let the demons get me again.
I won’t make the same mistake twice…

But there he stands in front of me. 
The man who hurt me.
Rhett Johnson


My Review 

This was a great second instalment in the series. 

I fell in love with the characters in the first book and this carries on in Courage to Fight. It picks off pretty much where Courage to Trust ends. It's so hard to write these and it not give away any spoilers from both books. Will Scarlett have the courage to fight for Rhett? Will Rhett have the courage to fight for Scarlett or will his secrets which we are yet to know keep them apart? 

All of the characters are back from the first book- Adam makes a return but can he be trusted and CeCe is still around causing trouble for Rhett and Scarlett. 

It was a great plot and a good pace- I was quickly sucked in- I didn't want to put it down and go to work. I felt mixed emotions whilst I was reading- at times I wished Scarlett would stand up for herself but I could understand why she did what she did and accepted what others told her. There is a section near the end where I had tears in my eye's it so well emotional and beautifully written. It does end on a slight cliffhanger so I can't wait to read the final book as there are still a few questions to be answered. 

The author adds in some great sexy steamy scenes. Overall this was a great sexy, steamy and emotional read which I really enjoyed and I would highly recommend this series.

Singe FOR WEB.jpg

Blurb
She was my nightmare. Every time I closed my eyes, I watched her fall into that inferno. Over and over, I failed to save her.
I hadn’t been able to reach her, and the guilt only burned hotter over time. Four years later, I was the unreachable one.
Heroes aren’t always saints. Sometimes, we’re nothing more than jaded sinners driven by sleepless nights and hearts full of darkness.
And then I met her. She was a dreamer who managed to soothe my scars and heal my wounds.
But, as the flames closed in around us, I feared I wasn’t the right man to save her. That is until I realized she was the one woman I’d burn the world down to protect.
