Nixon's Promise by Riley Edwards



Title: Nixon's Promise
Author: Riley Edwards 
Genre: Military Romance/ Romantic Suspense 
Release Date: June 25, 2019 



Former Navy SEAL Nixon Swagger was home.
After twelve years of service and twice as many deployments, all Nix wanted was quiet. He’d sought the solace of the land he’d grown up on and found the peace he needed to silence the noise and figure out his next move. Nixon’s stay was supposed to be temporary. He wasn’t supposed to meet a feisty, head-strong woman who made his pulse race and set his body on fire. Falling in love hadn’t been part of his plan. Taking a government contract to stop a homegrown terrorist group hadn’t been either, but when the organization threatens to attack Philadelphia, he had no choice but to accept.
McKenna Wilson was living. Every day was the same. Raising her two teenage siblings didn’t leave time for much else. Most days, she was okay with that. Then she bumped into the sexy war hero and, in an instant, her world changed. She had no idea falling for Nixon would be so dangerous. Now she was going head-to-head with the small-town’s dirty sheriff who was hell-bent on ruining Nixon and avenging a fifteen-year-old grudge. She’d lost her heart, but losing her life wasn’t part of the plan.
Nixon Swagger had learned a few things as a Navy SEAL—adapt, improvise, and overcome were among the many. In the middle of an inferno, so ominous even Dante wouldn’t buy a ticket, Nixon must adapt to his new surroundings and overcome multiple threats before he loses the woman he loves.


Tweet: Nixon was deadly. Both in words & actions. If I’d been the type of woman a man like him would pursue, that one statement would’ve had my panties in flames & me flat on my back. Nixon's Promise by @RileyEdwardsrom

Excerpt Two:

Chapter Five

He closed the doors behind him and, without saying a word, beckoned me toward him. I knew what was to come next. This was a test. He had his fill while away, last night included. He had no pent-up desires, as was often the case when he was home for too long, when he couldn’t risk his local reputation doing what he liked best on any flesh but my own.

He eyed me suspiciously. “I have a gift for you.” He hinted toward his inner coat pocket with a tap of his finger. “Do you deserve what I brought for you?”

He was taunting me, treating me like the shallow puppet he thought I was. He believed I longed for him to come home with pockets filled with trinkets. If he only knew that what I longed for was for him to stay away.

“I have done nothing to deserve your mistrust.” I mustered up.

Motioning with his finger, he directed me to turn around and I obliged. Even with my back to him, I felt him approach. I swallowed the dread. After years of his advances, I should have built up a defense, but my arsenal only contained an off switch. Once the fear had been pushed down, I could become his doll. A barely-breathing version of myself, unwilling but able to do as she was told, if only to save herself the repercussions disobedience would entail.

I watched as though from above as he used his body, now pressed against mine, to guide and bend me over the writing desk. He put a hand on my head and forced it to the side, pinning me. With the other found a ‘sweet spot’ at the base of my neck, above my shoulder bone, and pierced it with his tool. Briefly losing my distance from this moment, I cried out in surprise. I had forgotten the sharpness of this exchange. His lips fenced in the flow of blood and as he tasted me. Every now and again, he would attempt to torment me with a whisk of his tongue. Pressing into my back was the gift hidden in his pocket. I recognized the shape of it immediately. A bottle of perfume. What else would he bring me from Paris, from anywhere? It was what he always brought me.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

Born in Dundas, ON, Lilith Thorn is a restless wanderer. Her first move was to St. Catharines where she earned a Theatre degree at Brock University. Despite her parents’ wish that she would return home and work at McDonalds after graduating, Lilith refused and instead moved to Toronto to give acting the ‘Old College Try.’ After years of sacrificing her other passions for the stage and an empty bank account, she put away those dreams to say “Yes” to a different adventure. This took her to Dublin, Ireland for a few years where she met, fell in love with, and married another Canadian who took her to the one place she said she’d never live: Yellowknife. After nearly a decade in Canada’s Great White North, Lilith looks forward to further adventures with her husband and two children, just about anywhere.

Lilith Thorn is a pen name, the pseudonym used to protect the innocent; that is, so she hopefully never has to explain to her mother-in-law over dinner that she has written an erotic novel.

MEET IRIS & CLAY

Iris & Clay

Iris is a small town girl with a passion for writing and her biggest goal is to live under the radar with no attention on herself. With an outer beauty that is natural and basic, as some would say, she doesn’t dress to impress. Iris’s life has been lived inside her books, reading classic novels and writing her own life story. Iris has suffered great loss in her life which has left her with no plans for the future except being there for her Dad.

Clay Keller is a small town heart throb who had a long term relationship with ex-cheerleader, Lexi McAdams. When Clay left for college and his girlfriend cheated on him he reevaluates his trust in women and what he is really looking for in a relationship. It turns out that everything he has ever wanted in a girl is everything that he had, he just didn’t know it.

Until now…

Iris and Clay reconnect when he comes home from college for the summer and it isn’t long until she’s swept away into a world of just the two of them. Not everyone is a fan of their newfound romance and some make it clear. Iris begins to come out of her bubble and begins to dream of a future outside of her hometown but before she decides where the wind will take her she must think about all that she leaves behind.

Since then, she's progressed quite a bit to formulating longer and more complex stories with the hope of sharing them with much larger audiences.

Great Summer Reads Countdown Blitz The Three Crowns Series (Seven Books and Free Novella)/Kindle Edition by SONYA RAY Day 17








I grew up in Southeast Missouri; home
of the Throwed Rolls, high cotton, and the St. Louis Cardinals. I have a little
family consisting of son, daughter, son-in-law and a little Pi. Other than my
children (and grandchild), my passion is writing. My current project is The
Three Crowns Series. Sweet Tea is the first book in this seven-novel series
which published October 15, 2013.



Besides reading and writing, I enjoy singing. I love music period. Music is in
our family. Whether it be the bluegrass from the Ozarks that my Grandpa Sutton
use to play on his banjo or fiddle, or the smooth, family harmony in which I am
fortunate enough to sing with my Dad and Brother. But you can give me some
kickin' AC/DC too! I like it all!



I work full-time as an Administrative Assistant. Every free moment is dedicated
to my family and my current project, The Three Crowns, a seven-novel paranormal
romance series.





It all starts with a Queen and a Plan.


The Three Crowns is a New
Adult/Paranormal Romance series. There are seven books to complete the series,
with a novella. This series has your modern day vampires dealing with the Old
World Laws creating a struggle for ultimate power in the Night World.






THE THREE CROWNS SERIES SYNOPSIS



The Three Crowns series is about a normal girl whose life is more than what she
will allow herself to imagine. It is the journey of her accepting that
everything is not black and white, and our logic of what we understand does not
mean something does exist. Throughout the story she is protected, loved,
groomed and pushed to her limits to prepare her for what lies ahead of her. She
is tested in all areas of her humanity which will someday bring her to know the
person she is destined to be. The human nature of love is a tangled web of
emotions for she feels the love of two men who are continually being taken away
from her for the sake of their positions in the future as well.





Q&A With the Author:



1.  What do you like to do when you're not writing?
I work full time as an Administrative
Assistant, so the weekends are usually spent cleaning house and doing laundry.
But every Sunday I make time to sing with my dad and brother. I love being with
my family. My son is 21 so he doesn't like being around his mom so much, but I
still like when he is home. My daughter's family lives in TN so I enjoy any
time they come and visit with the little granddaughter who is a spitfire!




2. What would you say is your interesting writing quirk?
I like to write in first person, that
way you feel the depth of the story and how it is affecting everyone. Being a
reader myself, I love a good cliffhanger, so it is only natural that I love to
write leaving good cliffhangers myself. I know, I know. Some of you don't like
them, but I love reading and writing them!




3. Do you have any suggestions to help budding authors become better writers?
If so, what are they?
Stay true to your voice when you
write.
Talk with other authors when you can
Appreciate the small victories
Remember why you write
Never give up

4. Where do you get information
and ideas for your books?
How the Three Crowns Series came about was my
daughter asked me to write a story about a girl on a ranch with all her
friends. That turned into eight books, and paranormal at that! I think life
inspires me. When we went to Florida last year and I was floating in the Gulf,
I knew I had to write about St. George Island. I have so many stories written
in notebooks or on my computer. I can only hope that one day I will get them
all published.
5. What do you think makes a good
story?
I think it has to be heart-felt. If
I'm not feeling what I'm writing, my readers are not going to feel it. It
doesn't matter the genre, you have to be able to relate to the characters and
feel what they are feeling.

6. Tell us about your favorite summer
vacation? Or what do you like to do in the summer?


My favorite summer vacation was last
year when we went to St. George Island. I didn't want to leave! It was my first
time at the Gulf and I was fortunate enough to go with my kids. We stayed in a
house right on the beach, went swimming every day, chartered a boat and fished
for sharks and stingrays, watched the sun come up in the mornings over the
Gulf, ate wonderful food, and shopped in Apalachicola. I hope to go back again.

Genre: Contemporary Erotic Romance
Release Date: June 25, 2019
Cover Design: Concierge Literary Promotions

Pink’s Story:

As much as I love Finn, my brothers and our way of life... when things started to change, I found myself with only one option. I had to get away.

I need to clear my head and what better way than to hit the open road. My plan, for what it's worth is to drive, try and work out what I want and to take care of number one for a change. 

What is it they say about best laid plans? 

My plans might be about to change dramatically when I suddenly have to swerve to avoid hitting a runaway bride. She might be beautiful underneath all that dirt but she's a disaster, with drama written all over her tear stained face. 

I have to tell myself, this is not my problem. 

I don't care.

I tell myself enough, I might even believe it for a fraction of the second it takes me to stop my truck and haul a u-turn.

Again I tell myself, I don't care...until I do and then it's too damn late.
