Maxon Chambers has a way of stealing all the attention.
All my affection, and all my dreams.
What I needed to remember was he’d stolen my good judgment and my virginity, too.
When he broke up with me, I ran across the country and swore I’d never return to Broadshire Rim.
But here I am, thirteen years later. 
Maxon is all grown up.
Sexier than sin and more tempting than ever.
A detective on the Charleston force, he lives on the outside of safety, devoted to protecting the people of his city.
But with the way he’s looking at me now? I’m pretty sure what needs protecting is my heart.
Can we mend the pieces of us? Or will he leave my heart shattered forever . . .

AMIE'S 4 STAR REVIEW

This was a GREAT story - sadly I need to read books 1 &2 BUT I don't feel like I was reading anything out of order. I just knew I was missing out on other great stories and felt jealous of those who read them in order !! AL Jackson is a go to author for me. i read anything and everything she writes. Years and years ago someone told me to read Pulled and I never looked back !! Here I am years later , tons of stories later and still getting the same feels from her writing as I did then. The angst , the emotion and always something in the storyline to keep me hooked until the end. 

Mack and Izzy are about to find their second chance at love. They had a great friendship as kids and Izzy was there for Mack when he struggled through life with his father. The stories of the past were heartbreaking to read but I was so glad to have those pieces of the puzzle. Of course we can feel for Izzy and her broken heart but once you get to know more and more of what Mack went through back then you can start to understand his actions more. I won't say you will like his actions but maybe you can forgive him and move on !! Keep in mind this isn't just a love story it is filled with suspense too. Clarissa's piece in the story isn't much deserved but again helps us to understand Mack a bit more. Fear drove them apart, fate brings them back together and love heals all wounds.




Don't miss the awesome giveaway for the Pieces of Us release! It's the first two books from the Confessions of the Heart Series + Kindle Fire + Polaroid Camera + All the Goods!




Ahhh I can't wait for you to experience this story! I'm so insanely proud of it! I can't wait to hear what you think!
xoxo ~

AMIE'S 4.5 STAR REVIEW

First off this cover just embodies everything ED !! Totally fits the character and makes me love him so much more just seeing the hurt and trouble in his eyes. So great cover choice !! Secondly I have become such a fan of this author and I sadly never read her until after her big loved series everyone raved about. 

This story is as second chance as you can get. Clementine has no memory of her past and her sister and friends are pretty cautious with what they offer up for answers. As she grows stronger and takes things into her own hands she begins to realize her life was way more complicated than anyone has let on. The tattoo , the tattoo artist , the friends she doesn't recall that know her. It is a lot to take in yet she wants to figure out who she was so she can start building on who she will be. Ed is reluctant to help because their relationship had just ended and not on a good note. He is hurt and defensive yet Clementine can't stop prying to figure out exactly what happened to make things so tense. It is a great story and watching Ed and Clementine figure out the best way to handle themselves is amazing. There is angst and love and hate and danger. An air of suspense trying to figure out the who and the why. Once it all ties together you may be shocked to see just how everyone is connected. It is frustrating at times to feel their pain and not be able to yell into the book but in the end we get what we want and I love how it all plays out.

The Naked Truth by Vi Keeland ~ RELEASE BLITZ ~

TNT_Title_Black


A Standalone Second Chance Romance Novel
By: #1 NY Times Best Selling Author, Vi Keeland

TNT_FrontCover with black edge


RELEASE DATE: Monday, July 23, 2018 


  Synopsis: 

It was just a typical Monday. Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client. After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed. Or so I thought… Until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch. My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance. And that was the good part of my day. Because the gorgeous man crouched down and looking at me like he wanted to eat me alive, was none other than my ex, Gray Westbrook. A man who I’d only just begun to move on from. A man who my heart despised—yet my body obviously still had other ideas about. A man who was as charismatic and confident as he was sexy. Somehow, I managed to make it through my presentation ignoring his intense stare. Although it was impossible to ignore all the dirty things he whispered into my ear right after I was done. But there was no way I was giving him another chance, especially now that he was a client…was there?

AMIE'S 4 STAR REVIEW
Having read a few books by this author before I knew I would enjoy this. I am a sucker for the second chance , childhood sweetheart , friends to lovers types of books and this is all that wrapped into 1. Friends then young love then quick marriage then ghosted for years and now here we have them face to face. Jenna and Crispin were young and in love , sharing firsts and building dreams. Crispin's homelife was on the rocks and his mom got a job that would move them far away. As heartbroken as he and Jenna were they decided marriage was the only way to solve their problem and keep them together. They married , he moved , they carried on with life separately but then all of sudden it stopped. No communication , no idea what happened and no clue where Crispin had disappeared to or WHY. Jenna was brave to say the least I would have crumbled , and she did at times BUT she has held onto their love and has faith that she will find him and get back to where they should be. As she goes off to college she begins to make friends and go out and enjoy life. She doesn't share the full story of her trouble but she does make sure EVERYONE knows she is married. This girl is determined that Crispin still loves her and is as committed to her as she him. When one of her so called new friends has too much to drink and is harassing a non willing guy at a party Jenna steps in to pry her away and you can guess but will never guess who the guy is...BINGO !! Regardless if it seems predictable or easy BUT that is part of the appeal , we have been waiting for this moment since we started the story and FINALLY have it... Where has he been , WHY did he stop contact and HOW can they or he fix this. Now we find out that Crispin's family has been struggling for years with issues and his father is no longer the man Jenna once knew as happy. He is miserable and has made his children the same. Promises made give Crispin the feeling of hopelessness but his love for Jenna is undeniable and he needs to grow the balls to face his father and be a MAN and HUSBAND !! Anyhow - you can imagine there is back and forth , excitement of reconnection and of course a bit of poor choices and aggravation. The things dreams are made of for the readers !! In the end we have an HEA and no cheating or any of the other people crap that can ruin a great story !! 



E.A. Weston was born and raised in Dublin Ireland, She now resides in southern California. 

She is the best-selling author of New Adult contemporary, paranormal, and Fantasy romance novels. By day she stays at home with her daughter but each night she slips away to spin her tales and gets lost in her fantasy worlds. 
As an avid reader, Elizabeth enjoys anything with a bit of romance and a paranormal twist. When she's not writing or devouring her latest read, she can be found spending time with her family or watching movies.

Don't Be Afraid by C.A. Harms ~ TOUR PROMO ~

Title: Don't Be Afraid
Author: CA Harms
Genre: A 2nd Chance Romance
Release Date: January 28, 2018 
“Harms takes you on an emotional journey that will tear you down and build you back up. Make sure you have lots of tissues for this one” -Kaylee Ryan, NYT & USA Today Best Seller "10 STARS!!!!! That's what I would rate it if I could! This book BLEW ME AWAY!!!" ~ Goodreads reviewer

Have you ever looked at someone and just knew,
knew that they were put in your life for a reason?
The one person that would be not only your best friend,
but would be your absolute everything?
That’s how I felt the first time I saw him.
That one day when a few little words changed our entire lives forever…
Don’t be Afraid, he said.
Life can change so quickly.
One moment you can be smiling and feeling as if you're walking on clouds and the next, everything you love, everything you treasure crumbles at your feet.
I told him to fight, I told him I needed him.
We needed him.
But there are just some fights that can't be won…
He was my angel then, and he’s still my angel now.
In a way, I believe he’s still looking out for us, giving us a future.
Sometimes it’s as if I can still feel his presence,
guiding us and keeping us safe.
So, I won’t be Afraid.
I'll live. I’ll fight.
It’s what he would have wanted.
I’ll do it for him…

“Hey, pretty girl.” His voice was weak, raspy, and groggy, as if he’d just woken up.“Come over here and give me one of those kisses I love so much.”
With each step I took toward him, I could feel myself falling apart, like pieces of me were being chiseled away to expose my bleeding heart. I wanted to ignore it and to forget that our time together was limited. I just wanted to pretend this was a nightmare and I would wake up to find him happy and healthy.
Only I knew that wasn’t going to happen. That was cleared now than ever.
“Dry those eyes,” he said as I reached the side of his bed. His reached for my hand and linked our fingers, then pulled them to his lips. Seconds passed in silence. Then a long beep made me jump.

C.A. Harms is like any other addicted reader. She enjoys happy endings and HEA love stories. She hasn't always been a lover of Romance and had once been addicted to a good Mystery. Just recently she has taken on a new liking and now is a full blown Romance novel addict.
She lives in Illinois and enjoys spending time with her husband and two children. You will always find her with her kindle or paperback in hand as it is her favorite pass time.
