Tour: Katee Robert's Chasing Mrs. Right (Guest Post/Giveaway)

Today I would like to give a warm welcome to one of my favorite Brazen authors, Katee Robert! 

The Sophomore Slump.  We’ve all heard of it. We all dread it. It can mean different things – you’re second book out, the second book in you series – but it’s a very real scary thing for authors everywhere. Okay, maybe not. Maybe it’s just me.

I went into the first book in my Come Undone series all bright eyed and bushy tailed. It was the first in a lot of ways—my first Brazen, the first time I plotted out a book from beginning to end, the first time I wrote a heroine who was actually kind of a good girl. It was all new and brilliant and I rushed through the first draft as if I were on a bender, waking up two weeks later and going “What the hell did I just write?”

Tour: Wicked Cravings by Suzanne Wright (Guest Post/Giveaway)

Today we would like to share with you an excerpt from Suzanne Wright's WICKED CRAVINGS!

Despite having been besotted with Dante Garcea since she was a child, wolf shifter Jaime Farrow figures that it’s time to move past the crush. If he wanted her, he wouldn’t have ignored her flirtatious behavior, right? Hiding her intense attraction to him isn’t easy – especially now that they're part of the same pack again – but with bigger issues to worry about and with the submissive wolf act to maintain, Jaime is resolute on moving forward. Now if only the workaholic control-freak would let her…
As the pack Beta, Dante doesn't have the space or time in his life for a relationship. As such, he ignores his intense hunger for the willful – and sometimes crazy – Jaime. Yet when her flirtations abruptly end, Dante finds that he doesn’t like losing her attention. He finds something else too – Jaime's hiding something. Determined to uncover her secret, he sets out to break through her defenses, even though being around her intensifies his cravings for her. What he finds is a problem that Jaime is convinced not even a powerful Beta can solve.

Guest Review: Protecting What's His by Tessa Bailey - 5 Wine Glasses!

Protecting What's His 
Line of Duty #1

She’s running from the law, and the law wants her bad.
The opportunity was just too damn delicious for Ginger Peet to pass up. The purse full of money she finds—$50,000 to be exact—could give her and her teen sister the new start they need. So she grabs the cash, her gothy sibling, and their life-sized statue of Dolly Parton, and blows outta Nashville in a cloud of dust. Chicago, here we come...
Turns out, Chicago has some pretty hot cops. Hot, intense, naughty-lookin’ cops like Derek Tyler, who looks like he could eat a girl up and leave her begging for more. And more. Tempting as he is, getting involved with the sexy homicide lieutenant next door poses a teensy problem for a gal who’s on the lam. But one thing is certain—Derek’s onto her, and he wants more than just a taste. 
And as far as he’s concerned, possession is nine-tenths of the law.

Fiona's Thoughts:
After reading this book, the first 4 words that come to mind are,Sexy, Sassy,Alpha, and Funny! Which definitely took it from a 4 to a 5 for me. It's been a long time since I laughed so much while reading a romance novel.

Tour: Victoria James' A risk Worth Taking (Guest Post/Giveaway)

Please give a warm welcome back to author, Victoria James!

In my new release, A Risk Worth Taking, my heroine Holly has to take a leave of absence from her job in the city and return to her childhood home.  But she’s coming back to small-town Red River, with a baby, and with an agenda: renovate the house and then sell it and return to her regularly scheduled life in the city.  What she doesn’t count on are the emotions she’s buried deep inside to come bubbling to the surface-the home is filled with lots of bittersweet memories, and the town filled with all the people she’d tried to forget-most notably, Quinn Manning.

Holly Carrington’s Top Ten List for how to get through renovating your childhood home:

Locked by Maya Cross (Spotlight/Giveaway)

Today we have a spicy excerpt from Maya Cross' LOCKED as well as a giveaway!

Who is Sebastian Lock?
The bar Sophia Pearce is in doesn't look like much. The wine is bad and the decor worse. But when a sudden attack of curiosity leads her to sneak past security and into the back room, she discovers something unimaginable. The most lavish party she's ever laid eyes on, in the most unlikely of places.
But that's nothing compared to what comes next, to the man she meets back there. Sebastian Lock. Gorgeous, commanding, and radiating charm, he is exactly the sort of silver-tongued rake Sophia has sworn to avoid. Unfortunately, he doesn't care much for her promises.
Every instinct tells her to run, but the chemistry between them is as inescapable as gravity. Soon, he's opening her eyes to a whole new world of pleasures, pleasures she never thought she'd enjoy.
There's just one problem. Sebastian is more than he seems. Between the famous company he keeps and the almost paranoid secrecy of his employers, he's a puzzle Sophia can't quite solve, and his insistence on keeping things casual forces her to confront the demons of her past.
Can she learn to trust again? Or will Sebastian's privacy tear them apart?

This is a 35,000 word novella, or about 120 pages. It contains light BDSM, including spanking, restraint, and anal play, and is intended for readers aged 18 and over.
