COVER REVEAL Billionaire Undone By J.S. Scott

Billionaire Undone

 

After four years of working for “the billionaire boss from hell” Ally Caldwell thinks she finally has her life on the right track.  Her fiancé isout of dental school, ready to go to work at a thriving practice, and it would finally be her turn to go back and finish her college degree.  Unfortunately, her carefully planned future crumbles when she finds out that her fiancé, the man she’d nearly killed herself to help get through school, has been cheating on her.  With her wedding looming in the near future, Ally’s blindsided, realizing she’d never even knew the man she’d been planning to marry.  Suddenly, her carefully organized life is turned upside down, and not one single thing is turning out the way it was supposed to happen. Even her boss, Travis the Tyrant, is beginning to act differently, throwing Ally into an even more confused and chaotic state of mind.  Travis, the one man who she’d always counted on to be a jerk,was now the guy who actually steps up to try and help her straighten her life out again.  Unfortunately, she doesn’t much care for his highhanded arrogance or his methods of “helping.”  Ally wants to hate Travis.  It makes her life so much simpler to fight with him than to admit to the combustible chemistry growing between the two of them.  But as she begins to see more and more of the real Travis beneath his dark façade, she can’t seem to resist the dangerous lure of their unlikely attraction.  

 

Billionaire Travis Harrison does everything he possibly can to repair the Harrison name after a scandal nearly destroyed his family years ago.  He makes sure he keeps himself and his actions in check, his emotions buried under a thick layer of ice.  Only his secretary and assistant,Alison Caldwell, makes him come close to losing his carefully constructed image.  The obstinate female keeps shoving him closer and closer to the edge of sanity every single day.  But when he finds out about her fiancé’s betrayal, his protective instincts roar to life inside him, making him want to ensure she’s never hurt again.  The only problem is…Ally doesn’t want his help, and the infuriating woman does everything she can to push him away, even as the two of them are swept into an undeniable passion that neither of them can possibly ignore.  Before long, Travis finds himself in ruthless pursuit of something much more important and elusive than just a business deal.  

Can these two very different, very stubborn people actually be meant to be together?  Find out if Travis and Ally can let down their defenses and surrender to a love so powerful it will rock them to the depths of their souls in Billionaire Undone, Book Five of The Billionaire’s Obsession series.

Sam and Maddie are here!

Billionaire Sam Hudson has pretty much lived his life with no apologies because he tries never to do anything that he’s sorry about…except for what he had done in the past to Dr. Madeline Reynolds. Many years and regrets later, Sam meets up with Maddie again by chance; his brother Simon is marrying Maddie’s best friend and the two of them are forced to be civil. But Sam wants to be more than polite, and he wants another chance to make things right, so he offers Maddie a bold proposition, an offer he knows she’ll have a very hard time declining even though she hates him.

Dr. Madeline Reynolds adores her best friend Kara and her fiancé Simon, but being forced into the company of Sam Hudson, because they are both in Simon and Kara’s wedding, is pure torture. She’s hated Sam for years, but when he offers her a bargain, something near and dear to her heart, she’s torn between her dislike for the man and the offer of something she’s always desperately wanted. Once, Sam Hudson nearly destroyed her, but Maddie discovers that sometimes things aren’t always what they appear to be. Is Sam really a devious heartbreaker, or is there something more to him beneath the surface?

Can two people with so many years of hurt between them learn to trust each other again?

Yeah…he was as happy as a man could be, considering he had lost the other half of his soul and most of his heart when fate had torn his wife away from him.

Or so he believed…until the day he rescued a mysterious woman in the park, a female who somehow had managed to reignite a part of him that he thought was long dead...

Suddenly, Max's protective, dominant, possessive male instincts flare to life, leaving him at a loss as to how lightning could possibly strike twice in one lifetime. Is he truly being given another chance at real happiness, or would it be dangled in front of him, only to be taken away once again?

With his professional football career over due to a tragic accident, billionaire Kade Harrison takes on the task of solving a mystery for his brother-in-law and friend, Max Hamilton. Without his former career to fill every minute of the day, Kade's looking for something to challenge him--now that he's lost the career that had meant everything to him. But what starts out as a simple favor soon becomes a whole lot more than he bargained for when the woman he's seeking slips away from him every time he gets close to finding her. When Kade does finally corner her, things start to get even more complicated. Asha Paritala is nothing like he expected, and the female he had tracked down as a favor for Max soon becomes a woman he wants for his very own, a woman who makes protective and highly predatory instincts he didn't know he had flare to life inside him. Kade soon discovers that he wants Asha's total surrender to the desire and passion that vibrates intensely between the two of them, but he also wants her trust, the one thing Asha's history makes it difficult for her to give. Can Kade convince her that some things are worth risking it all?

Caught between two worlds, Asha Paritala is homeless, broke and damaged from a life of abuse and neglect. Born of an American mother and an Indian immigrant father, Asha was raised as an Indian woman by a foster family after the death of her natural parents when she was little more than a baby. She's spent her entire life under the control of others until finally breaking free two years earlier, and she's determined to keep her freedom, even if it means she has to struggle to survive. But when she meets Kade Harrison, her resolve is tested. After Kade helps her through a bad situation, she finds herself beginning to trust Kade as she's never trusted a man before. Kade is everything she always thought a man should be, but can she lose herself in him completely when she knows she's damaged and confused. And is it really possible that she could be a lost sibling to two people like Max Hamilton and Maddie Hudson? Asha is tempted by the possibility of family, and the irresistible lure of a man like Kade Harrison. Can a woman caught between two cultures, so flawed and so backward, really reach out and take what she wants, or will the instinct to run from the pain of her past destroy the hope of happiness for her future?

Find out if two broken souls can heal each other in The Billionaire's Game, book 4 of The Billionaire's Obsession series!!

This is a complete novel with no cliffhangers. 18+ due to sexual situations and graphic language.

SYNOPSIS:
If you dig into the deepest parts of your soul, what would you find? Happiness, pain, love, regret, peace, sorrow? Now imagine experiencing all those feelings at once and then nothing at all. These were the average days in the life of Lennox. An unhealthy and unstable mind is further challenged when fate intervenes. One tragic moment will test her wavering strength and leave a permanent scar on her conscience. Follow her journey of rediscovery, falling in love, and searching for her own fairy-tale ending.

Prologue
 
There was a time in my life when the light within me shined so brightly. At some point I lost it. I lost me. Life used to course through my veins like an out of control wildfire, unstoppable and infectious. Time was supposed to heal, but all it did was slowly strip me down to an empty vessel void of passion, desire, and drive. I wanted to scream, “Be the one to save me,” but my soul was drained, my heart was shattered, and time had siphoned the life out of me.

MY REVIEW
4 Stars ****

I was gifted a copy in exchange of an honest review

This story was full of Heart, as I wife of an absent husband I understand the trials and tribulations of being alone and having to come to terms with just spending few hours with your husband, this sometimes or most times I dare say affects us in how we see our relationship, it puts a strain and so in saying that, this book for me had a strong connection, I know my husband's job is not a life threatening job like a fireman, but I was still able to empathise,  I felt Dani dealt very well with the theme of depression and it was at points very hard to read it was very emotional. 

I felt the dialogue was consistent and fluid, the characters were engaging and very captivating it definitely draws you in and because it deal with something very real it felt honest, it had definitely loads of twists and turns sometimes you thought the story was going to go down one route and then the Author presented us with a completely different scenario and this was very well achieved,  I for one not keen on spoilers so I wont go into that detail. I will only say prepare yourself for a powerful read for this is a story of loss, pain, betrayal, passion, redemption, hatred, self discovery and ultimately love.

The Rise and Fall Of Empire By John Dawson Jackson

The Rise and Fall of Empire by John Dawson Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 STARS!!!

I was gifted a copy by the Author in exchange of an honest review.

What first attracted me to this book was actually the Author autobiography, I though if someone can come up with something so incredible when describing himself then certainly his books will be written with the same avidity.
Well I wasn't wrong,  this book is very special, I must confess I haven't read much in this genre for a while and I was somehow hesitant to not being able to engage myself in the story, however even from the dedication i was totally hooked.

The Rise and Fall of Empire follows ML character Jason Silver a high school senior who may I add its a bit of an alfa male and totally wins your hart ( and the hart of many) within the first few chapters, a hilariously funny guy who in reality is quite bright but has not yet found a motivation in his life, however there is an ancient evil looming over the city and suddenly takes shape in the form of Jason's best friend, after this there is pandemonium all over as the dead toll arises whilst the town begins to fall, Jason is then presented with an opportunity to use his "hidden" skills and perhaps save the day. There is an incredible amount of twist and turns, is full on action packed,  and witty dialogues aplenty, people are not what they seem, there are zombies,  assassins,  plus all the other secondary characters which together are a great complement to the story.

John writes with such eagerness, devotion and passion, that it makes it easy for the reader to submerge themselves in the plot.
I would like to add that there is plenty of romance in this story, but because of the pace and energy of the dialogue it is apt for both male and female readers.

I cannot wait for the next part, and yes hands up I  have found my new book boyfriend so PLEASE don't make me wait too long for more JASON!!!

My Review Of Dark Love By Olivia Howe

Dark Love by Olivia Howe
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am very privileged to have come across this book, Dark Love is the perfect paranormal romance read, it contains all the essential ingredients to make this indeed a very entertaining story, however what amazes me the most is the writer; Olivia Howe is an independent author, she is only 19 years old and has managed to captivate me with her style of writing, there is definitely a lot of talent; For Olivia is paramount to let the readers know that before writing this book she had been struggling with severe depression and anxiety, and writing Dark Love was a healing ingredient to overcome this illness, she is not afraid to expose that about herself, on the contrary she embraces that fact and has included this very delicate topic as part of her story, the lead character Nina is recovering from the same illness after the death of her father.

From the very first page we are drawn into the plot, 2 sisters who share a powerful bond and are desperately trying to rebuild their lives after their terrible loss are attempting to go back to their every day routines so they go back to school where destiny awaits them in the form of the Madsen brothers Andrew and William, the attraction between both couples is instantaneous and irresistible, but unfortunately just when things seem to be looking up reality couldn't be further from the truth as the brothers are hiding a dark secret, a secret that will have an impact in all their lives.

The book has great fluidity, there is plenty of romance, and drama and the dialogue is engaging, there were unexpected twists and turns within the plot. One particular thing I liked was that Olivia wasn't afraid to take a gamble writing some parts of the book in a monologue style as our lead keeps entries in a diary, but this actually payed off as those parts in the book were extremely heartfelt and I cant help but think there might be some of her essence written between those lines, and for that she has my complete admiration, she has set the foundation for what will be an incredible series and I can't wait to read the next instalment.

5 STARS!!

J.S. SCOTT A Dangerous Hunger COVER REVEAL!!!!

Synopis

Dr. Talia

Maris had lived her entire life as a freak—a too tall, too plain, too odd a

woman who sees and senses the presence of otherworldly entities.  A total recluse, Talia spends all of her time

on her research, living a contented, quiet life with only her loyal feline

companion for company.  Until that sedate

existence comes crashing down around her when she starts being pursued by demon

Evils.  And if there’s one thing she

hates…it’s demons.  She ditches every one

of them until Sentinel demon, Drew Winston, finally wins the game of pursuit by

trapping her with a deceitful, underhanded trick.  Not only is she infuriated by Drew’s stunt,

but when he tells her she’s his mate, Talia wonders if the too handsome, too

tall, too sexy Sentinel demon needs some serious psychological help.  All she wants is to get rid of Drew as

quickly as possible! But the stubborn Irishman isn’t budging, and her

resistance slowly crumbles as she gets pulled deeper and deeper into the world

of the Sentinels by the relentless attempts of the Evils to capture her.  And what is she supposed to do with Drew

Winston, a Sentinel demon who would do anything, even sacrificing his own life,

to protect her? 

There are

two things Drew Winston loves about his life: being a billionaire Sentinel

demon and food.  He loves having

everything he wants, and he’s perfectly happy slaying Evils and rescuing unsuspecting

humans, until the irritating Dr. Talia Maris evades him one time too many.  Yeah…sure…maybe he was a little devious in the method he used to finally meet her

face-to-face, but he ends up being the one who is actually surprised when he

discovers the elusive woman is actually his mate.  Worse yet, she’s being pursued by ancient

Evils, and it brings every protective instinct he has to the surface, making

him want to kill anything that might hurt Talia.  Maybe Drew had never wanted or expected a mate

of his own, but once he has Talia in his grasp, he’s determined to keep her

safe and make her want to stay with him forever. 

Excerpt:

 “I’m not

bringing you back,” Drew informed her casually. 

“You’re being pursued by Evils, and you’re not safe here.  I have no idea why they’re after you, but

they obviously are.  You’ll stay with

me.  You’re my mate, and that’s something

we have to work out.” 

“It doesn’t mean we have to do

anything about it.  You could find

someone else.”  Strangely, that thought

didn’t sit well with her at all, and she felt a sharp, proprietary instinct as

she said the words, a jolt of negative reaction to her own statement fluttering

in her belly.  She didn’t want him to

find anyone else. 

“There is no one else, Talia.  A Sentinel has one mate.  Period. 

There isn’t anyone else for me but you.” 

He turned to her, his eyes turbulent and stormy.  “It isn’t a choice, and you have no idea how

I feel right now.” 

“How do you feel?”  Talia wasn’t sure why she asked.  She could see the truth on his face.  Gone were all traces of his earlier humor,

the carefree look replaced with the expression of a predator that had found its

prey. 

Pressing

her back against the arm of the sofa, his body imprisoned her, enthralling her

with the heat radiating in waves from his muscular form.  “Like a demon,” he answered hoarsely, his

eyes dropping possessively to her mouth.

SYNOPSIS

The first book In The Sentinel Demon Series, a paranormal romance by NY Times and USA Today bestselling author J.S. Scott.

27 year old Kat Larson is haunted by demons. Literally. And how was she to know that there was more than one type of demon? The Evils want to destroy her soul, while billionaire Sentinel demon, Zachary Winston, claims that he wants to protect her. Kat opts for Zach’s protection…but it doesn’t come without a price. It requires a demon bargain…and what he suggests surprises poor Kat almost as much as the fact that demons really do exist. Why would the handsome billionaire want to make such an agreement with a curvy, plain redheaded woman like her?

Billionaire Zachary Winston has a mission and it’s one that he vows to complete. As a Sentinel demon, his task is to protect Kat from the Evils that will corrupt her soul. His only problem is that she is his “radiant,” the one woman who can lighten the darkness of his demon existence and be his eternal mate. Zach has to fight an internal war between man and demon as he protects Kat, not quite sure which one will win. He’s one part demon, one part man, but they both yearn for Kat’s lush, full figured body and kind, compassionate heart. As Zach becomes more and more enchanted with Kat, he’s hoping she can learn to love a lonely man/demon that’s only slightly wicked.

This paranormal romance contains graphic language, steamy love scenes, and lovable alpha males that also happen to be mythological demons.

Review of The Coolest Way To Kill Yourself By Nicholas Tanek

The Coolest Way to Kill Yourself by Nicholas Tanek
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sometimes in our lives, amazing things happen to us, things that don't come often, things that stay with us forever, things that change us unexpectedly in an unexplainable way; for me it was reading The Coolest Way to Kill Yourself.

When I came across this book, I was obviously taken aback by its title, I thought, hold on a minute that can't be right, then I read the description and slowly things made sense, I immediately wanted to know more about this story, I was absolutely captivated so I purchased the book, however, nothing could have prepared me for the incredible journey which I was going to be transported into.

Nicholas Tanek has written this book for "Lynn", the love of his life who unfortunately passed away in 2012, but, in order to do that, he has to take us through a trip down memory lane from the first time they met, this may I add, is no easy task, Nicholas has to go back to the early 90's when he was only 16 years old, what starts as friendship soon develops into something else, in a time when drugs were an easy distraction and music was a vital ingredient the leads embark in a passionate love affair which would withstand the test of time, however, most of us readers have been through our teenage years, and we know that at this age every day represents a new adventure, external factors, and things beyond our control have an impact in our relationships, and at this time Nicholas and Lynn part ways.

I would like to think whereas Lynn's feelings towards Nicholas even as a young teenage girl were pretty much a given, for Nicholas at that time as a romantic, love came and went without consequence or true happiness, he is not afraid to share each and every one of his painful relationships for they each had an impact in the man he came to be, to each he gave his love but in reality not his heart, each lover is a stage, each is a learning curve, each is a piece in a puzzle forming a new identity that would kill his old self and replace him with a genuine personality, through it all he is not afraid to open up and talk about his insecurities, his addictions, his desires and his obsessions; For Lynn unfortunately, the journey wasn't without difficulty and Nicholas allows us to get a glimpse into her years as she fights a terrible illness, an abusive partner, a battle with addiction and ultimately the loss of her identity.

It's not common for destiny to offer us second chances, these very seldom come, very few of us have the opportunity to do things right, to correct mistakes and to love again, Nicholas and Lynn were given a precious gift by being able to find each other after many years apart, to love each other the honest and purest way, for Nicholas it was a realization of the greatest love he felt for Lynn and for her it was the satisfaction to finally being with her one true love, for both it was being with a person that knew and accepted the worst parts of each other, their darkest past but still loving each other with a ferocity few ever experience in a lifetime.

"Lynn and I felt thankful to have each other. The comfort was truly magical in the sense that we both felt that we would never be alone again. We felt that we would always feel the love of one another in our hearts. We were looking forward to our time together. We were looking forward to our lives together."

As I write this review listening to Roxy music playing "Mother of Pearl" in the background still feeling quite emotional, I am so thankful that life has given me the opportunity to have read this book, it has changed me in so many ways, it has taught me to live life to the fullest, and love with intensity, with purpose, I would like to say this story is of love lost and found only to lose it again, of many different types of love and passion, Nicholas wrote this story for a girl who once thought nobody would ever write about her, he does it with so much emotion and conviction, I am in awe of his accomplishment to overcome so many obstacles, to immortalize Lynn through the pages of this book and to do it in the coolest way.
