Assassin's Heart by Ella Sheridan





Title: Assassin's Heart

Series: Assassins #4
Author: Ella Sheridan
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: August 26, 2019





Blurb


My brother
believes he made me a killer. The truth is, I’ve always been different. I can
smile while sliding a knife between your ribs—and not feel a moment of regret.

Until Leah.

A man like
me shouldn’t have a family. But the minute I opened my eyes from a coma and saw
her, I knew I’d forever be tied to her. A nurse who nurtures life. A mother.

I’ve
stalked her for two years, unable to stop but refusing to give in to the need
to have her. To love her. Until the night her daughter is taken. I’ll light up
the world to get Leah’s child back to her.

And then
I’ll walk away for good. Not because it’s the right thing to do, but because I
know how she’ll look at me after seeing who I truly am.

She’ll see
the murderer inside me. And God help me, but she’ll be right.

Excerpt

A ragged sigh escaped Leah when my arm settled across her belly, but she
didn’t wake, not then and not when I pulled her into the curve of my body. The
silence wrapped around us like a warm blanket, turning tense muscles liquid and
soothing the runaway thoughts in my head. Warriors knew to sleep when given the
slightest opportunity. I knew to be grateful for the slightest bit of peace,
and I reveled in it now.
At least until Leah stirred in my arms. Seconds later her body went
rigid.
“It’s all right, just me,” I murmured into her hair.
“Remi.”
My name, husky in her sleep-roughened voice. Blood surged to my cock
without my permission. “Yeah.”
Leah tried to turn, to face me, but I tightened my arms. Just a few
minutes longer. Or a lifetime. I wasn’t anywhere near ready to let go.
She stilled. Relaxed. Her body went boneless against mine in an age-old
display of trust. Leah wasn’t submissive, not anywhere else, but here, now, she
was surrendering her body to my demands. It was the kind of gift a man like me
would never dream of receiving because we didn’t deserve it.
Leah gave it anyway, hardening my cock even more.

Submissive Lies by Shane Starrett




Title: Submissive Lies
Author: Shane Starrett
Genre: Erotic Romance with themes of infidelity
Release Date: August 10, 2019





Blurb


Thomas was everything a woman should want. Smart, sweet,
gorgeous... but that first spark I’d felt between us had fizzled. There’s
something wrong with me, something broken. Or... at least I thought it was
broken. Then I met Steve. We went from spark to raging inferno with one flick
of his eyebrow, one dangerous smile, and now all I can think about is the side
of myself I’d tried so hard to lock away. He’s everything Thomas isn’t. He’s
everything I’ve been missing. Fire and passion... and dominance. If I was a
good girl, a vanilla girl, I could have been happy with Thomas. But now that
I’ve met Steve, I know that’s impossible.

My name is Jen. I am a submissive.

I’ve deceived everyone around me about who I am, and I’ve
lied to myself. But this time I won’t.

This time I will choose happiness... even if it
hurts.

Excerpt

“Okay. Jen.” Thomas' shoulders relaxed in another small
release of tension as he gave a slight chuckle. “just for future reference,
you might want to think of another way of starting a conversation right
after we’ve had sex other than ‘Can we talk?’ followed by ‘Have I ever told you
about my past lovers?’”
“Ugh.” I slumped back a bit, groaning. “This is getting all
twisted around…”
He laughed, then reached down, kissing the top of my head.
“It’s fine. Just tell me what this is about.”
“In my past relationships, I…” I paused, letting out a small
sigh. “Well, there have been certain things about them that were…well, aspects
of them that have included…umm…” I wasn’t sure exactly how to approach this.
This was not a conversation I’d ever thought I was going to need to have with
him and coupled with the fact that the discussion had already gotten off to an
awkward start, I was quickly beginning to lose my resolve to continue. However,
Thomas was patient and didn’t press me.
“Certain,” I picked up where I had stopped. “…certain, uh,
what people would call … kinky things.” I looked up at him, hopeful, expectant,
and saw his expression change from mild uncertainty to one of bemusement.
“Kinky things?”
“Yeah, you know, kinky…sexual things.”
“Okay.” Thomas frowned, his brows knitting together. He was
deep in lawyer mode, and I could almost see his brain attacking this. “Are we
talking about things like the toys in your drawer?” He made a slight motion
towards the nightstand on my side of the bed.
“Well,” I pursed my lips together, taking a deep breath,
trying not to let my frustration show. “Those could be considered part of it, I
suppose, but what I’m referring to are things that would be a little
more…pronounced than that.”



Author Bio


Shane Starrett has spent twenty-five years writing steamy,
erotic technical documents (okay, the erotic part is probably a bit of a
stretch) for major companies in the live events industry. His first novel, Submissive
Lies, was long in coming, but with guidance from his long-time beta reader
of 30 years (Ms. Starrett), it is now complete and available. When he isn’t
writing, which isn’t often, he can be found hiking trails up and down the
Sierra Nevada’s, and the coastal range in Southern California.

Fighting for Valor by Patricia D. Eddy

Title: Fighting for Valor
Series: Fighting from the Keyboard Collection
Author: Patricia D. Eddy
Genre: Military Romance
Release Date: September 10, 2019
Cover Design: Deranged Doctor Design
Photo: Paul Henry Serres



val·or: great bravery in the face of danger, especially in battle

 Once, Jackson Richards had it in spades. As a member of the United States Special Forces, he fought alongside the bravest and most capable men he’d ever known.


Then one mistake landed them all in Hell.

For six months, he fought. But one terrible day, his captors learned the full extent of his skills, and that sealed his fate.

Tortured and broken for endless months in conditions that made Hell look like a five-star resort, Jackson Richards died, and Isaad was born. Shaped into a weapon for the wrong side, he’d forgotten who he once was. Who he was meant to be.

Until the days his captor imprisoned Joey Taylor.

Helping Joey and her marine escape reminded Jackson of the man he used to be. And now, he’ll fight. For himself. For the friends he thought he lost in Hell. And for Caro. The woman with a secret he can’t ignore.

If he’s strong enough, he’ll leave Isaad behind. Maybe then, he can take back his true name.

Ripper.

WARNING: This book contains scenes of torture and implied sexual violence that may be disturbing to sensitive readers








“You’re a piece of work,” I mutter to myself, and a quick inhalation from the sidewalk causes me to jerk my head around. Brown eyes meet mine, and the woman from the previous night freezes. In one hand, she carries her set of kitty cat brass knuckles, and in the other, a grease-stained bag. 

“I…uh…b-brought you something,” she stammers as she climbs the first step and then stops. 

“Hoping to bribe me into not axe murdering you?” She flinches and squeezes her eyes shut for a brief moment. “Bad joke. Sorry. But Ripper…really is my name. Or what everyone calls me.” I push up to sitting and rest my back against the church door. “And I’m not a charity case.” 

“Didn’t say you were.” She thrusts the bag at me, and when I don’t move, drops it next to my hip. “We had extra. It’s rainy and kind of cold tonight. I thought…a hot meal might…shit. Never mind. Take it or leave it.” 

She turns, and the scents of cheese and salsa waft up from the bag. “Wait a minute, sunshine.” Digging into the paper, I find an aluminum foil pan covered with a healthy serving of enchiladas lightly covered in cheese and red sauce, a half pint of refried beans, and a bag of marinated carrots and jicama. “This smells great.” 

A hint of pride straightens her shoulders, and the corners of her lips curve into a half-smile. “Thanks.” 

“You made this?” I grabbed a granola bar and an apple at my apartment, but my stomach rumbles at the prospect of something…so very different than my everyday diet. The first bite takes me back to my mama’s cooking, and I think I moan a little. 

In the light of the street lamp, her cheeks glisten with the misty rain and turn a bright pink. “I work at a food truck. Today’s menu was Mexican comfort food.” 

“My mama learned how to cook from my abuela, who grew up in Mexico. These are the best enchiladas I’ve had since I left Texas.” 

She toys with a blue pendant hanging from a silver chain around her neck. Joy and sadness battle for control of her features, but joy seems to win in the end. “Thank you. That means a lot.” 

A tendril of long brown hair plasters itself to her cheek as she stares down at her sensible black shoes. Her ankle’s wrapped in an ACE bandage, and as she fidgets, I can tell she isn’t putting all her weight on it. “You okay? After last night?” 

“Oh. Yes. I should…go. Let you eat in peace.” 

“Wait.” I don’t know why I’m stopping her. But the idea of her being hurt, and that I caused it, doesn’t sit well with me. “What’s your name?”

“Cara,” she says quietly.

“You live…uh…close?” Her eyes widen, and I kick myself. If she didn’t think I was a stalker or an axe murderer before, she does now. “I just mean…it’s wet out. And you weren’t the most graceful last night. I…be careful, okay?”

A scowl twists those heart-shaped lips, and she levels me with an acerbic stare. “I’m not the one sleeping on the streets with no defenses. And I’m very graceful. When I want to be. Good night, Ripper.” Her curtsey is a little lopsided since she isn’t putting her full weight on her right foot, but she turns on her left heel and starts limping away. 

“‘Night, Cara.” As the rain intensifies and I dig back into the takeout container of enchiladas, I wonder why it’s easier for me to talk to a stranger than it is the men I consider my brothers.



Patricia D. Eddy likes to consider herself an unstoppable force. As long as there's coffee. Then, the voices in her head come to life.


Her tales of werewolves, vampires and witches; Doms and subs; and battle-hardened, scarred military heroes feature characters so real, you'll want to jump inside the pages of her books to be friends with them. Or just give them a hug.

When she's not writing, she's a professional freelance fiction editor and technical writer. On weekends, she loves to take on home improvement projects, especially if they involve power tools.

Patricia lives in Seattle with her husband and very spoiled cats. You can find Patricia all over the web, and she loves to hear from readers. Email her at patricia@patriciadeddy.com

For Sofia, it’s everything. 

What happens when the two tango?
