Blurb

Being arranged to marry a Highlander lord is hardly
uncommon.
But when he happens to be gorgeous, powerful, dominant,
and your best friend’s dad?
Well, that’s another story…

Lachlan McDougall is a lot of things: powerful, ruggedly
handsome Highlander Lord, fierce ex-soldier, my soon-to-be-husband

…And my best friend’s dad.

I grew up in their castle, under his eye. But secretly,
I’ve wanted him since before I even knew what the word meant.
On the surface, I’m marrying him for political reasons: to stop a war and save
his lands.

On the inside, though, binding myself to Lachlan McDougall
is a fantasy I’ve dreamt a thousand times.

I know this is wrong, and a sin. But once I lose myself in
those dark, piercing eyes, and once I feel his big, powerful hands on me, and
once I taste those beautiful lips?

…Well, it turns out, I might not be the only one with a
forbidden little secret.

In two days, I’ll be married to a man who I’ve
married a hundred times, in my head. The man who’s taken me to bed
ten times that number in my dreams.

Twice my age, a scandal waiting to happen, and my best
friend’s father.

…I’m in so much trouble.

Book Blast Love Calls You Home by Donna Simonetta


LOVE CALLS YOU HOME
by Donna Simonetta

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This post is part of a virtual book tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. Donna will award a $25 Amazon/BN gift card to a randomly drawn commenter. Click on the tour banner to see the other stops on the tour.


GENRE:  Contemporary Romance
Stephanie Williams left skid marks on the road out of Willow Springs, Vermont after she finished high school. She didn't return until her company sent her to evaluate the town for a massive development project. Back then she thought the town was way too small and too cold. Now the cold isn't as much of an issue since she's reconnected with her childhood friend, Donald Flanagan. Stephanie doesn't remember his eyes being quite so green, or his body quite so built. He's smart and funny as he ever was, and a forest-fire sized attraction burns between them.



Donald never understood his old friend's driving need to leave Willow Springs. He loves everything about it. When he learns the truth about Stephanie's project, and how it will turn his hometown into a theme-park version of itself, will it extinguish the flame that has sparked between them?



Read an Excerpt



Whenever she was ready. That was a joke. Stephanie wasn’t sure she’d ever be ready. She stood at the door to his apartment and crinkled the white paper bag she held in one hand and swiped her other hand’s sweaty palm on her white jeans. It had been years since she’d been this nervous about eating dinner with a man, and it was dinner with Donald Flanagan, for God’s sake! Her nerdy, childhood friend. There was no reason to be nervous with him. Except, he’d grown up and filled out, and was one fine looking man now, in addition to still being the smart, funny, nice guy he had always been. As a matter of fact, he’d become the perfect man. Not to mention, somewhere along the way he’d learned to kiss like an alpha male dream––all in control and powerful––Stephanie grew weak in the knees at just the memory of their kiss last night in Finnigan’s parking lot.


About the Author:
Donna Simonetta writes the kind of books she loves to read--contemporary romances filled with heart, heat, and humor, like the books of her favorite romance writers, Susan Mallery and Jill Shalvis.
A Sweeter Spot is the first book in the Rivers Bend trilogy, which is set in a fictional small town, populated by quirky characters. But if you prefer a big city setting and a little fantasy mixed in with your romance, try Angels Fly. A heartwarming story, set in beautiful San Diego, about getting a second-chance with your first love, with a little help from some unlikely guardian angels.


Writing is Donna's third career. She has worked in the business world, which she decided wasn't for her. So she went back to school to get her MLS degree, and worked in a school library, before deciding to pursue writing on a full-time basis. Donna lives in Maryland with her husband, who is her real-life romance hero. They enjoy traveling to visit far-flung family and friends, and spending time on the beach with an umbrella drink and a good book.

All the Dirty Secrets A Jake Carrington Thriller #4 by Marian Lanouette


All
the Dirty Secrets
A
Jake Carrington Thriller #4
by
Marian Lanouette
Genre:
Mystery, Thriller



Pub
Date: 5/14/19

It’s
a shocking blast from the past when homicide detective Jake
Carrington finds himself investigating the last woman he’d suspect
of murder . . .


Recovering
from a stab wound to the gut, and dealing with the news that his
sister’s killer might beat the system, Lieutenant Jake Carrington
needs some downtime. But that’s cut short by a very sensitive case:
the murder of the police commissioner’s wife. The crime scene—a
dive hotel, complete with provocative, incriminating photos—suggests
the victim was having an affair. But Jake finds that hard to
believe—as hard to believe as the #1 suspect . . .


Jake
hasn’t seen his high school sweetheart, Melinda Mastrianni, since
the day his sister, Eva, died. He’d turned down Eva’s request for
a ride so he could go see Melinda, and the guilt has never left him.
Now Melinda’s a local photographer, mostly shooting weddings and
graduations. Definitely not the kind of pics that led him to her
doorstep. But when Melinda disappears, and more prominent women turn
up dead, Jake will have to navigate through a twisted blackmailing
scheme to find out if the girl he once knew is long gone—or if
she’s a killer’s next target . . .


Tense
and authentic—a suspenseful page-turner!” --Leo J. Maloney on All
the Pretty Brides















All
the Pretty Brides
A
Jake Carrington Thriller #3

Homicide
detective Jake Carrington has an engagement that can’t wait—with
a killer.

Haunted
by the murder of his sister, Lieutenant Jake Carrington struggles to
control his personal demons as he stands over the brutalized body of
a young woman found dead on the railroad tracks. The victim
disappeared on July 6th, the fifth woman in as many years to go
missing on that date. The fifth happy bride-to-be. The only one whose
body has turned up.
Soon
the killer is sending personal messages to Jake. They refer to an
unidentified brother he believes Jake hates as much as he does. With
his partner distracted by turmoil at home, Jake is on his own. Drawn
deeper and deeper into a murderous family feud, his mission is to
find out who the killer’s brother is—and stop him before another
innocent woman’s life is cut tragically short.
Tense
and authentic—a suspenseful page-turner!”
Leo
J. Maloney











All
the Hidden Sins
A
Jake Carrington Thriller #2

When
it comes to crime, homicide detective Jake Carrington plays for high
stakes . . .


Assigned a missing
persons case, Lieutenant Jake Carrington investigates a local Mob
boss. The trail goes cold, but the Mafioso isn’t taking any
chances, and soon the heat turns up from another quarter. Turns out
there’s more than one dangerous suspect . . .
Kyra Russell is
drop-dead gorgeous and Jake is only human. But despite their mutual
attraction, Jake’s suspicion deepens when he learns about her
gambling problem—an addiction that cost her both husband and son.
Even more disturbing is Kyra’s day job. She runs a crematorium—and
it’s tied to the Mob. Now Jake will have to navigate a firestorm of
treachery to get to the truth . . .






All
the Deadly Lies
A
Jake Carrington Thriller #1

Homicide
detective Jake Carrington takes murder personally…


The
victim was bludgeoned, stripped, and left for dead. Shanna Wagner
deserves justice—and there’s no better cop than Lieutenant Jake
Carrington to find her killer. The brutality of the crime reminds
Jake of his sister’s murder seventeen years ago, and the
remorseless man responsible, now up for parole.
Then
another woman is killed—and Jake goes dangerously close to the
edge. He’ll have to face his personal demons and focus his
formidable skills if he hopes to stop a vicious murderer from
striking again—and hold on to his career, and his life . . .











A
self-described tough blonde from Brooklyn,
Marian Lanouette
grew up as one of 10 children. As far back as she can remember,
Marian loved to read. She was especially intrigued by the
Daily
News
crime reports. Tragically, someone she knew was murdered.
The killer was never found. Her Jake Carrington thrillers are
informed by her admiration for police work, her experience in running
a crematorium, and her desire to write books where good prevails,
even in the darkest times. Marian lives in New England with her
husband.

Can You Hear It by Casey Diam






Title: Can You Hear It

Series: Alpen Springs #1
Author: Casey Diam
Genre: Mature YA/New Adult Romance

Cover Design: Okay Creations
Release Date: August 1, 2019



Blurb


Secrets.
Deceptions.
Tragedies.
Those were the root of all evil. One those became the root
of mine, the day I lost the love of my life. My best friend. My lover.
Everyone disregarded it, ‘let’s face it, Averie, you have
the rest of your life ahead of you’ but they were wrong. James was my ever
after . . . until Ashton.
If only he didn’t come baring one of the roots of the evils.
A secret.
The reason he wanted me to stay away.
I should have listened, he should have tried harder, but
neither of us did either of those things. And if we did, if he had told me when
we first met—would it have altered the moment I realized that I was falling for
him? The slight variation in the air. The hitch in my breath. The lightness in
my chest.
Impossible to know, I’d already fallen.
I was already ruined.
