Cover Reveal & Giveaway: Ready To Cash Out By K.L. Hiers

Ready To Cash Out Cover

Coming July 26th

Trevanion Usher’s mother had always told him that beauty faded but stupid was forever, so he aimed high and set out to be beautiful for as long as he could and only let people think he was stupid.

Since her passing, he’s managed to navigate the perils of Perry City, a dangerous metropolis run by the mob and oozing with corruption. His sharp wits, good looks, and absolute lack of shame have served him well, and he’s almost ready to escape and start over somewhere with a tropical climate. When his landlord calls in a favor, Trev is suspicious but jumps at the chance to score big in exchange for one night of work.

Naturally, that’s when everything goes wrong.

Jupiter Prospero is a member of the city’s ruling mob family and he’s interested in sharing much more than Trev’s company for the evening. He’s gorgeous, powerful, and has secrets to reveal—like Trev’s relation to a powerful gangster in the city of Strassen Springs.

Trev finds himself trapped as an unwilling pawn in a deadly game between two long feuding criminal families and he’ll have to use all of his skills to survive, but does he stand a chance against Jupiter’s devastating charms?

Or will he succumb to even darker forces before he has a chance to cash out?

Sexy psychic Simon Kincaide and skeptical homicide detective Vic D’Amato are getting married–if the ghost of a murderous magician doesn’t get them first!

Blurb

Simon and Vic’s wedding is just a few weeks away, and they’re hoping for a little peace and quiet to wrap up work before their honeymoon, but nothing ever goes that smoothly.

Strange circumstances around the death of a retired stage magician suggest supernatural involvement, bringing Simon in on the case. The dark secrets of a long-ago resort hotel lead to a trail of unsolved cold cases that have a chilling similarity. Old scandals, malicious magic, and vengeful spirits expose a web of lies, deceit, and death that is headed for a reckoning.

Can Simon and Vic solve the murders, stop the ghosts, keep Simon’s mother from crashing the party, dodge last-minute wedding disasters, and still make it to the altar on time? Or will the shadows of Myrtle Beach’s haunted past ruin everything?

Point Blank is a fast-paced thrill ride MM paranormal romance packed with supernatural suspense, sinister sleight-of-hand, mysterious monsters, psychic visions, hot men, hurt/comfort, loyal friends, wedding planning, found family, ghosts galore, dark magic, and an evolving, established romantic relationship with all the feels.

About the Author

Morgan Brice is the romance pen name of bestselling author Gail Z. Martin. Morgan writes urban fantasy MM paranormal romance, with plenty of action, adventure and supernatural thrills to go with the happily ever after. Gail writes epic and urban fantasy, with less romance, more explosions.

All of the modern-day Morgan Brice and Gail Z. Martin series crossover, so characters from one series appear in cameos and on page in important secondary roles in books from other series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but the more you read the more the expanded universe of friendships and connections becomes clear.

Morgan and Gail believe that paranormal elements make any story even better, and her worlds are full of ghosts, psychics, shifters, creatures, vampires, monster hunters, and magic.

She’s also a huge fan of the TV show Supernatural. (Chibi art by Kamidiox)

Blast – Provoking the Punter

June 30, 2024 Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

For these polar opposites, the most interesting plays happen off the field.

Provoking the Punter (Austin Troopers #2) by TJ Nichols is a spicy, standalone, M/M contemporary sports romance in a multi-author series. Read today and get ready to fall for Garrett and Chester!

getbook.at/ProvokingThePunter

🏈

For these polar opposites, the most interesting plays will happen off the field.

Garrett Stevens is done with scandal. The drinking, the hookups…he’s over it all. It’s time to grow up and focus on his pro football career. The last thing he needs is a new romance. So why can’t he keep his mind (or hands) off the sexy bar owner who makes him question everything he thought he ever wanted in life?

Chester Monroe is too busy working day and night, making his business a success, to worry about finding love. Even if he was looking for a relationship, it wouldn’t be with someone famous. Which meant getting involved with Garrett was definitely a mistake. The easiest one Chester ever made…

When all is said and done, will the ghosts of the past—and the secrets of the present—destroy Garrett and Chester’s shot at happily ever after?

RELEASE BLITZ: Hold Me Until Morning by A.L. Jackson

July 1, 2024June 30, 2024 Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

Hold Me Until Morning by A.L. Jackson is now live!

I should have known I’d be playing with fire when I found the sexy as hell woman moving in next door…

It was pouring rain, so I figured the neighborly thing to do would be to lend a hand.

I nearly dropped to my knees when I realized who she was.

Hailey Wagner.

It’s been six years since I’ve seen her, and she’s always been the one person on earth who is off limits.

My past sins I’ve kept like an ugly secret made sure of that.

Too bad this single mom with the soulful eyes still makes my pulse speed the way it did back then, and I soon find our chemistry is just as strong.

When I find her ex threatening her, I insist on staying with Hailey and her little girl until I’m sure they’re safe.

I thought I could handle being under her roof. Only the tension between us strains, and with one forbidden kiss, all restraint is lost. We collide in a lightning bolt of greed, the two of us locked behind her door night after night.

Falling so hard I know there will be no coming back from it.

But being with Hailey exposes the past I’ve been trying to hide, and I’ll do anything to protect her from it. Because if I don’t? We’re both going to pay the consequences…

Title: Magnificent Mess

Author: Elizabeth Standish

Genres: New Adult/Women’s Fiction

Tropes: Coming of Age/Slow Burn Romance

Academia/Second Chance/One Bed

Release Date: October 15, 2023

BLURB

College is over, and Emma’s supposed to know what she’s doing. Her overbearing mother thinks she knows: law school and then the family firm. Too bad Emma doesn’t agree.

Meanwhile, her best friend Kim wants to set her up with the new guy in Kim’s office. This is a problem. Patrick is more alluring than Emma wants to admit—infuriatingly so.

Stuck between casebooks and a man who can’t seem to make up his mind, Emma jumps ship and heads for a summer study abroad in Ireland. Unfortunately, Ireland doesn’t make things any clearer, especially when she finds herself in bed with cute and studious Alex.

In the wake of her rebellions, Emma is left grasping for a sense of belonging.

Whatever she’s doing, and wherever she’s doing it, Emma will have to embrace the messiness of getting to know herself. Maybe for the first time.

Spotlight : I Pucking Hate that I Love You by DL Gallie

July 1, 2024June 29, 2024 Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

Title: I Pucking Hate that I Love You

Series: Pucking Love Series Book 1

Author: DL Gallie

Genre/Tropes: Ice Hockey Romance ~ Coaches Daughter ~ Instant Attraction

Release Date: January 31, 2022

I vowed I’d never give my heart to another Ice Hockey player again. I learnt my lesson the first time. But then I met Kallen Jones and he became a huge problem.

Not only is he on my “Don’t Fall In Love With A Hockey Player” list, he’s sitting pretty high on my “I want you” list. But I can’t date a puck head again.

It doesn’t matter how good looking he is with his blue eyes, lickable abs and heart of gold. He’s a hockey player and my dad is his coach. Except Kallen isn’t like the others. He treats me like a princess and has me doubting my decision and breaking my vow at every turn.

Until he turns out to be just like the last puck head I gave my heart to.

I pucking hate him but I also pucking love him…I’m so pucking screwed.

DL Gallie writes spicy romance with elements of comedy and suspense. She currently lives in Central Queensland, Australia, her husband and two kids but has lived in many different places around the world and within Australia. She and her husband have been together since she was sixteen, and although they drive each other crazy at times, she couldn’t imagine her life without him.

Shortly after her son was born, DL began reading again. With encouragement from her husband, she picked up the pen and started writing. Inspiration strikes at random times (like in the shower or on the way home from school drop off) and now the voices in her head won’t shut up.

DL enjoys listening to music, drinking white wine in the summer, red wine in the winter, and beer all year round. She’s also never been known to turn down a cocktail, especially a margarita.
