Midnight Reads: Choose Me by Natasha Moore Releases Today!

Eve Corcoran hates being a cliché, but after her husband leaves her for a younger woman, she’s surprised how much she enjoys being on her own. When the empty nester hires the contractor next door to renovate her new apartment, her surprising feelings for him threaten to turn her new life upside down.

After Rick Best lost his wife, he never expected to fall in love again, especially not with the mother of his daughter’s best friend. He’s gone on enough rescue calls with the volunteer fire department to know life can change forever in an instant, and he can’t understand why Eve resists grabbing a second chance at happiness.  

Rick wants her to choose a life with him, but Eve is holding on tight to her newly-found independence. As she keeps pushing Rick away, however, being on her own starts to feel a whole lot like being lonely.

Time to grab a second chance at love. Book #1 in a new series Choose Me by @natashamoore http://amzn.to/2cNH56I

Tuesday Special: Right Now by Marie Hall

Sometimes in life....

Things were supposed to get better when Ryan met Lili. I was supposed to move on, get a life... but I'm stuck and lost. Things with my father are not good. There are demons in our closet, big ones. Ones I want to kill him for, I'm seeing a shrink, I'm trying to get better... but my life feels out of control, like I'm a raft adrift on the sea. I don't know where to look, how to get anchored again, and then I meet Zoe Stone. Something about her draws me out of my rut, makes me laugh for real, smile, and for the first time in years I want to be more. But what will she think when she discovers who I really am?

...all we have...

When Alexander Donovan, aka The Golden Adonis, walks into my tattoo parlor, I know I'll do anything to make that man mine. There's an instant connection, a need to know more about him. Everything about him. But there's also a mystery surrounding the guy, when people look at him they only see the man that laughs, that cracks jokes and makes the world think that everything's okay, but I see the truth... I see the darkness that lurks so deep inside few would ever recognize it. I want to help him, I want to be with him, now I just have to make him trust me enough to let me in.


Is Right Now.

But fate has other plans for him, Lily finds and rescues Ryan, determined she'll not only save his body, but his soul too.

Cover For Mr. Hawtness!

Very excited to share the cover for my upcoming ebook, Mr. Hawtness!

Timing is everything… 

Business broker Megan Lassiter knows the axiom better than anyone. Her keen instinct for being at the right place, at the right time, has propelled her up the corporate ladder. When it comes to love and relationships though, she's usually got it all wrong.

An opportunity to visit her old college roommate and attend her friend's Derby party almost ends in disaster when she runs into the college ex from hell. Rescued by a sexy, mysterious man, she decides what she needs to break out of her bad relationship luck, is a fling with Mr. Hawtness.

When would she recognize what he already knew? 

The last time Jonathan Presten saw Megan, she was sobbing on the front steps of his parent's house, waiting for his sister. More than anything, he'd wanted to be the one she trusted to comfort her. 

 

Jon knew she was his one true love…except at the time, he was only seventeen. With a six year age difference, he was smart enough to know he didn't stand a chance with his older sister's hot best friend.  Now, twelve years later, she's back in town and Jon realizes his feelings haven't changed. But would his second chance get stopped before it started?

Coming soon...

Before she can make a decision, she discovers the vampire who’s been charged with sunproofing her blood isn’t so fond of her patron either. In fact, Dominic is unlike any vampire she’s ever met, but is she desperate enough to put her trust in another noble? Her heart says yes…
