#Interview with author Jenny Colgan of 500 Miles from You




Lexi: We’re all about finding comfort around here. And what brings more comfort than curling up on the couch to watch a romcom? Well that’s easy….curling up on the couch to read a romcom! So it’s perfect that we welcome, Jenny Colgan!!

Hello! It’s lovely to “be here” ☺☺☺


Lexi: We know 500 MILES FROM YOU was written well before the pandemic, but it’s quite serendipitous that it’s release is right now, when we all so desperately need an escape. And an escape is what your main character, Lissie, needs. She suffers from PTSD resulting from experiences at her nursing job and as a reprieve, she’s sent to a quaint, Scottish Highlands town to fill in for their paramedic who’s being sent to London. What are you doing to ‘escape’ from reality right now/what far-off locations would you like to escape to?

Well I am very lucky as we live in the country with a huge garden and a wood next door so I feel like it’s a big of an escape. (if you want a sticky beak at where we live, I always post lots on Instagram at @jennycolganbooks)

New York Times best-selling paranormal romance author Felicity Heaton is here today for the book tour of her new paranormal romance release, MAREK, the latest novel in her epic Guardians of Hades series.

(Guardians of Hades #4)
by Felicity Heaton
Kindle Edition, 466 pages
Published May 26th 2020 by Amazon Media EU S.à r.l.
ASINB086N23KWS
Prince of the Underworld and Lord of Earth, Marek was banished from his home by his father, Hades, two centuries ago and given a new duty and purpose—to keep our world and his from colliding in a calamity foreseen by the Moirai. Together with his six brothers, he fights to defend the gates to the Underworld from daemons bent on breaching them and gaining entrance to that forbidden land, striving to protect his home from their dark influence.

Haunted by a betrayal that shattered him and set him on a dark path of vengeance, Marek closely guards his heart, as determined to keep it safe as he is to wipe the scourge of vampires from the world.

Until a hunt lands him in the presence of a beautiful woman who threatens to steal that heart as she battles his sworn enemy, her graceful moves igniting a passion so fierce and hunger so deep it consumes him.

Caterina’s sole purpose for the last decade has been freeing her brother of the curse of being turned into a vampire. When an alluring dark warrior steps in to help her battle a nest of bloodsuckers, her entire life is tipped off balance. She knows deep in her heart the warrior can help her save her brother, but can she trust a man who is driven to slay every vampire he meets?

When Marek’s enemy emerges from the shadows, and Caterina is pulled down a dark rabbit hole into a dangerous world, will they be strong enough to overcome their pride and their prejudices or will a dark turn of events shatter both their hearts?

Read an #Excerpt from The Summer Deal by Jill Shalvis




49228821. sx318 sy475 The Summer Deal
(Wildstone #5)
by Jill Shalvis 
Paperback, 384 pages
Published June 2nd 2020 by William Morrow Paperbacks
ISBN0062897918
From New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis comes a friends-to-frenemies-to-sisters story… And then add in a love story (okay, two love stories). Shake. Stir. Read on a lazy summer day at the beach.

Brynn Turner desperately wishes she had it together, but her personal life is like a ping-pong match that’s left her scared and hurt after so many attempts to get it right. In search of a place to lick her wounds and get a fresh start, she heads back home to Wildstone.

And then there’s Kinsey Davis, who after battling serious health issues her entire twenty-nine years of life, is tired of hoping for . . . well, anything. She's fierce, tough, and pretty much the opposite of Brynn except for one thing: they're half-sisters. Kinsey is keeping this bombshell, and a few others as well. Long time frenemies from summer camp, there’s no way she’s going to tell Brynn they’re related.

But then Brynn runs into Kinsey's lifelong best friend, Eli, renewing a childhood crush. He’s still easy-going and funny and sexy as hell. When he gets her to agree to a summer-time deal to trust him to do right by her, no matter what, she never dreams it’ll result in finding a piece of herself she didn’t even know was missing. She could have a sister, love, and a future―if she can only learn to let go of the past.

As the long days of summer wind down, the three of them must discover if forgiveness is enough to grasp the unconditional love that’s right in front of them.

#CoverReveal of Can’t Help Falling in Love & Last Beautiful Girl by Samantha Chase




Can’t Help Falling in Love
(Magnolia Sound #5)
by Samantha Chase
Kindle Edition
Expected publication: August 10th 2020 by Chasing Romance, Inc.
ASINB088VW6JR4

Q&A with author Jamie Beck of If You Must Know + #Giveaway




How do you describe your newest novel If You Must Know?

This book is a “beach book” in the best sense. It’s not angsty, yet it has a page-turning plot and a bunch of interesting, relatable characters. I think it’s entertaining and heartfelt at the same time, which is exactly what many enjoy reading while on vacation.


What inspired the novel?

The external plot came to me as a result of the influence of two people in my life. My dear friend’s husband is a forensic accountant, so some of his stories about how people hide money and flee their families provided one point of inspiration. The second is my mother’s best friend who, in her seventies, sold her house and bought a boat, which she and her husband live on full-time. The impetus for the oil-and-water sisters was to provide myself an opportunity to explore the sibling-rivalry dynamic.
