EXCERPT REVEAL: Twisted Twosome by Meghan Quinn

SBPRBanner-Quinn-TT-ER.jpg

Twisted Twosome, an all new sexy, laugh out loud romantic comedy from Meghan Quinn is coming August 3rd!

TwistedTwosome

Twisted Twosome by Meghan Quinn

Publication Date: August 3, 2017

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Racer McKay is a broody bastard.

From the moment I met him, he’s been rude, irritable, and unbearable.

A contractor working to remodel my parents pool house for extra cash, he stomps around in those clunky construction boots with his tool belt wrapped around his narrow waist, and a chip on his shoulder.

Racer McKay is also infuriatingly . . . sexy as hell. I want to take that pencil tucked behind his ear, and draw lazy lines slowly up and down his body all the while wanting to strangle him at the same time.

We try to stay out of each other’s way . . . that is until I have no other option but to ask for his help.

But what I don’t realize is he needs me just as much as I need him. I have money he’s desperate for, and he holds the key to making my dreams come true.

Our pranks turn from sarcastic banter, to sexual tension and lust-filled glances. Bickering matches quickly morph into slow burn moments. We’re hot, we’re cold. We push and pull. I need him, I don’t want him. We’re on the verge of combusting with an agreement dangling dangerously between us. Neither one of us can afford to lose one another and yet, we’re finding it quite hard to decipher the line that rests between love and hate.

Excerpt

Why is it so goddamn drafty in here? I grip my hammer in my hand, my tool belt riding low on my hips, and my stereotypical construction hat rests on my head as I finish up the project I was hired to do.

Taking a quick look around, I search the bedroom looking for an open window or AC vent that’s blowing a cold breeze right against my dick and sac, making it almost impossible to look semi-decent in this scrap of fabric.

“Mmm, I think you forgot a nail on the ground over there,” says the throaty, smoke-filled voice of Mrs. Sage, who is lying across her chase lounge wearing a silky pink robe that is barely tied around her waist. She makes it her mission to show me as much skin as possible, and as we’re talking about skin showing . . .

I bend down to pick up the nail she’s pointing at as the thin strip of man thong material rides higher up my ass crack than I care to admit.

Let’s pause for a second.

Are you wondering to yourself, is Racer really wearing a man-thong as he finishes building a solid oak shelf?

The answer is yes. Yes, I am.

I’m Racer McKay and I wear man thongs for older, rich women while I work on simple projects around their houses. Excuse me, I mean mansions.

Don’t worry. Yes, I’m also very much ashamed to admit the level I’ve stooped to in order to make some cash. I have my pride, but right now, when I’m offered three hundred dollars more to build a shelf in a man thong, I’m choosing to seize the opportunity.

Self-respect was thrown out the window two years ago when a pile of bills and responsibilities were thrust in my direction without any preparation or warning. Making money is as vital as breathing to me, so I will take it any way I can get it.

Cue the man thong.

“Oh, you’re right. Here it is,” I say, holding up the nail. “Thanks for the help, Mrs. Sage. I would hate to see you hurt yourself from my lack of attention to detail.”

She waves me off and puffs her chest toward me, her robe slipping farther apart, showing the cleavage of a very saggy pair of breasts. I’ve seen my fair share of boobs and even though I don’t mingle sex with work, I can’t help but want Mrs. Sage to remove the robe just so I can see what she has hidden under the silky fabric.

How saggy are we talking here?

I’m interested for exploratory reasons, for knowledge of every kind of breast out there. Because right now, Mrs. Sage looks like she’s rocking a pair of pancakes that have been flattened by a steamroller.

“You would just have to nurse me back to health if that happened.” Her finger trails up her varicose vein-covered leg to her geriatric hip. I hold back the shiver that wants to spin up my spine.

All I can say is . . . can’t unsee that.

I nervously laugh and tuck my hammer into its holster. “Not much of a nurse, Mrs. Sage. I might hurt you even more.”

“I don’t mind getting hurt.” She starts to spread her legs and that’s when I call it a day.

I turn around quickly, snag my jeans and slip them up and over my legs, struggling with my tool belt getting in the way. Once things are in place, I remove my hat, put on my shirt, and then cover my hair with a backwards baseball cap. The peep show is over.

Once dressed, I gather my tools, tuck my construction hat under my arm, and turn to Mrs. Sage. This is my least favorite part, getting the old bird to pay up.

“Leaving already?” She pouts, lipstick on her teeth.

“Unfortunately, I have another engagement I’m running late for.” A lie, but it’s the only way I know to get out of here.

“That’s a shame. I really should book you for a whole day. That way you can’t skirt out of here earlier than I’m ready for.”

She walks out of the den and into the entryway where she opens her purse and pulls out a wad of one-hundred-dollar bills. My brain explodes from the amount of cash in her purse, as if it’s chump change she’s ready to throw around at a parade dedicated to her and her riches.

“What do I owe you? Six hundred?”

Fuck, it’s five hundred and if I wasn’t a nice guy, I wouldn’t correct her, but I believe in good karma. Especially considering where my bad luck has gotten me—trying to climb my way out of a large debt. I try to put as many good vibes out in the world as possible.

“We actually agreed upon five hundred, Mrs. Sage.”

“Such a bargain.” She flips through her cash, pulls out five bills—damn—and hands them over to me. “Shall I call for my next project?”

I pocket the cash. “Email is best, Mrs. Sage. I always feel awkward taking phone calls at work.”

“Such a hard worker.” She pats my face and leans forward, lips puckered, but I step to the side avoiding an attack from her old-lady lips.

As I depart, I wave my hand in the air and say, “Thanks, Mrs. Sage. I look forward to your next email.”

Out of her reach, I toss my tools in the back of my truck, enter the cab, and place my hands on the steering wheel as I exhale a long pent-up breath.

About the Author

A BLONDE AT HEART

Born in New York and raised in Southern California, Meghan has grown into a sassy, peanut butter eating, blonde haired swearing, animal hoarding lady. She is known to bust out and dance if “It’s Raining Men” starts beating through the air and heaven forbid you get a margarita in her, protect your legs because they may be humped.

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.

​Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!

REVIEW TOUR: Beard Up by Lani Lynn Vale

Title: Beard Up

Series: The Dixie Warden Rejects MC #6

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: MC Romance

Release: July 27, 2017

Cover Model: Chase Ketron http://bit.ly/2qeeuih  @ChaseKetronFitnessModelFanpage4

Photographer: Golden at Furious Fotog http://bit.ly/2qexHAr  @FuriousFotog

Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35003202-beard-up

Ghost [gohst] noun:  the soul of a dead person, a disembodied, vague, shadowy spirit wandering among or haunting living persons; a mere shadow or semblance; a trace.

That noun sums up Ghost and what his life has become with painful precision.  He is barely living, merely existing but never thriving. There wasn’t much that could pull him from the darkness he willingly inhabits…except one thing.  Her.

She is the reason he’s done what he’s done, and his life has become what it has become.

He haunts his former life, lurking in the background, surviving on occasional glimpses of the only thing good that is left in his miserable life. The horror he has inflicted upon her is nothing compared to the terror that waits for her when someone moves in to take her from him.

The thing about being stuck in the past is that it is like walking through life backwards. She is always looking back, so she doesn’t see what is happening in front of her. Unfortunately for her, it turns out that the ghosts of the past aren’t nearly as terrifying as the monsters of the future.

They say that true love is like a ghost, something that many talk about but few have seen. It’s a good thing for that, too, because he’ll need that element of surprise to protect her. Hopefully when the dust settles, he’ll be able to resurrect more than just himself.


What Others Are Saying:

5 Star Amazon Review – “Perfection! The definition of true love and sacrifice! ALL THE STARS!!!!”

5 Star Amazon Review – “My best book of 2017”

5 Star Amazon Review – “** Sweet Jesus– Couldn’t put it down ** Absolutely LOVED IT!!!”

For some time now, Lani Lynn Vale has hinted about Ghost’s true identity, providing brief insights into a man who readers have met before and who they desperately want Vale to bring out of the shadows and give him a second chance to reclaim his wife and daughter while also ensuring that his family is protected from the monsters who are the reasons behind his original ‘death,’ horrific resurrection, and lonely and haunted existence.

Lani Lynn Vale has meticulously laid out Ghost’s re-emergence, ensuring that all pieces of his story connect and follow a precise timeline, and while the present day Ghost will always have parts of the man he was, it’s important to understand that he will NEVER be that person again, which means in order to understand the man he has become, readers must be privy to his backstory and the history of the events that turned Ghost into the quiet, aloof, and hardened man who readers catch glimpses of in previous storylines.

Then…

Ghost’s life was pretty picture perfect: he had a wife who loved him unconditionally, a daughter who meant the world to him, and a job he worked his butt off to acquire. His family was his body, his heart, and his soul, but in order to protect them and not take them down to hell with him, he had to give them up until the time came when he could reenter their lives and never be without them again.

The flashbacks of this time along with insights into what Ghost’s wife has to endure without him is spread throughout the storyline, showing just how heartbroken, lonely, and desperate both sides are without one another. These past events also force readers to truly understand just how evil and sadistic Ghost’s parents are and what they’re willing to do to get what they want.

Now…

Six long years have undeniably changed the man Ghost was, but what it hasn’t altered is his deep and unrelenting devotion to his beautiful wife and baby girl. It’s crystal clear that they are all that matters to Ghost and he’ll do what he has to, to ensure their safety, trudging through hell and back as well as haunting his former life so that when Ghost can come out of hiding, he’ll get the revenge he so desperately craves and deserves .

What Lani Lynn Vale reenforces in Ghost’s story is the bond that is established between MC brothers once someone joins their ranks. The Dixie Wardens have every member’s back, including their family members, and that idea is expertly illustrated throughout Beard Up. And even though most of his brothers are left in the dark about his resurrection, Ghost knows they’ll stand behind him…they’ll do what needs to be done despite their anger over the lies they were told and the grief they felt when they thought their brother was never coming back.

Beard Up is an intense story due to the deplorable operation that Ghost and his brothers work to take down, Ghost’s conflicted feelings over his need to protect his family, and his desire to finally be a part of his family’s life after his long absence. Ghost’s struggles play out on the pages of the story in a way that readers can’t help but feel his anguish, his guilt, and his fears. There’s so much pain and heartbreak that Ghost and his family must endure, and it feels like it will never end because what Ghost must contend with is not something that will easily fall.

Lani Lynn Vale does an amazing job with Ghost’s story; I couldn’t put the book down because I needed to know who he was, why he left his family, and how they and Ghost’s MC brothers would react once the truth was revealed. The layout of Beard Up is well thought out; readers must understand the characters’ backstories before reuniting them in present day, and with those pieces of their story provided, no one can question Ghost’s choices…no one can truly say they would do anything different given the circumstances he was faced with because he always had his family’s safety in the forefront of every decision made.

BLOG TOUR STOP: REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY: Alex in Wonderland by Max Monroe

Blurb

From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Max Monroe comes a new, sexy, and exciting twist on fairytales.

I’m Matt Hadder. 
I’ve been called ruthless, savage—even brutal—by the men and women who work for me. And I’ve earned my reputation.

Wonderland Inc., a party planning organization for every major player in the world, is Oz, and I’m its Wizard. I can make anything—drugs, prostitutes, deals—appear for a night and disappear just as quickly.

This doesn’t make me good or bad—it makes me essential.

Wonderland Inc. was my life, until a beautiful contradiction of innocence and impurity, obedience and rebelliousness named Alex Little stepped in and turned both of our worlds upside down.

Welcome to Wonderland, Alex.
A place where everything appears normal.
But we’re all mad.

Disclaimer: Exercise caution while reading. Evidence shows that Matt Hadder’s vibrant sexiness and alpha manner may lead to confusion, arousal, and questioning the necessity of one’s own moral code.

Review

Max Monroe’s carefully construction Wonderland, Inc. is definitely not Alice’s, but this darker and decadent version of the fairy tale world has Alex Little falling down a rabbit’s hole and involved with a Mad Hatter of a more dangerous and deadly variety. It’s an environment where anything goes…where there’s no such thing as only good or only bad when it comes to the members of this organization…where its surface depicts one idea and then hidden beneath the veil is something entirely different.

The setting for Alex in Wonderland is not for children, not even the one that serves as the cover for a lot of the party hosts and guests’ nefarious acts. Nevertheless, it is the one that Alex finds herself in when her job in a rabbit costume puts her in the path of Matt Hadder – the man at the helm of Wonderland, Inc. A man whose calm and controlled exterior conceals his ruthlessness and savagery. Matt rules with an iron fist and isn’t afraid to use fear, bribery, and blackmail to protect his clients, his employees, and even himself.

Alex Little is a curious person by nature, so when she’s invited into Matt’s world and is introduced to its sexy and sinister ways, she has to decide if she can be part of an environment that blurs the lines of right/wrong, good/bad, and legal/illegal, and interestingly enough, this innocent and moral beauty understands why an organization like Wonderland exists and excels because it’s human nature to push boundaries, to live life on one’s own terms, and to revel in a level of debauchery than can only exist if there are willing participants, and what Alex realizes is that this alternate universe that Matt has built and molded can only thrive with the backing of powerful and wealthy people, proving without a doubt, that people are only a little mad!

The path of Alex and Matt’s relationship doesn’t follow a straight line, which makes sense because, at first, they live in completely different worlds, but when a set of circumstances brings them together, what starts out as a potential liability becomes a connection that neither Alex nor Matt are willing to give up, despite her fear and his need to not show weakness as the head of a company that is ripe with deceit and has people looking to get ahead by any means necessary.

Alex in Wonderland is strikingly different than what Max Monroe readers have come to expect from the sassy and hilarious writing duo, but the new world they introduce us to in their first twisted fairytale is just as enticing and dynamic as any of their other stories; in fact, there’s a depth to Alex and Matt’s story with its explanation of human nature and the gray area concerning the deeds of men that isn’t necessarily a component of their other series because the settings and feel of the books are completely different than the mysteriously dark world that Max Monroe creates in this latest release.

And, with the titles of Max Monroe’s other twisted fairytales, I can’t wait to see what alternate universes they send readers to and how amazing it will be to explore these warped, adult versions of children’s classics.

Teaser

“It is. It’s just…jarring.”

      “You don’t find it natural?” I asked, putting a hand to her back and making her step closer. The pleasure girl moaned and writhed, her skin a flushed rose of arousal as Spade continued to play with her. Lou Diamond had joined them now too, feasting on her breasts and stroking his cock while kneeling on the plush red couch behind her opened leg.

      Alex shook her head and nodded at the same time, her every nerve ending buzzing with confusion over what she’d been taught was appropriate, and the very opposite way she felt.

      “That could be you,” I whispered, leaning into her back and grazing the shell of her ear with my breath.

      She shivered—for about a millisecond—before bounding away and turning to meet my eyes, panic stark in hers. “Me? Do that? Like…right here? In front of people?” she stuttered. “No. No. Um, no.”

      Excitement shot down my spine at her anxiousness. “No?” I questioned, careful to keep my tone reproachful. I wanted her to feel pressured—just to see if she could withstand it.

      After a brief pause, she confirmed with a curt, determined shake of her head. “No.”

      At six foot six and two hundred and seventy pounds, I was nothing short of physically intimidating. I was impressed by her backbone.

      “Okay,” I agreed easily. Her eyes widened, and her plump lips parted. I took pleasure in her surprise.

“I’m face-down in forty glorious inches of cock cake, seriously reassessing my life choices, when suddenly I hear it. The voice that launched a thousand teenage boy-band dreams. My #1 crush, Drew Delaney himself.”

Ten years ago, Drew was boy-band royalty: the subject of a million teenage fantasies – and the guy next door. He was so far out of my league, I couldn’t see him for stars, but now I’m back in town for our high-school reunion, guess who I run into but Mr. Right-Now himself…

Older. Hotter. And still sexy enough to make me forget about the glittery white frosting currently smeared across my chest.

Sparks are flying, and so are my panties, and soon, our trip down memory lane has taken a detour to ‘oh my god, don’t stop!’. Population: me.

But can I turn Mr. Right-Now into Mr. Forever? Or will crazed fans, vicious yoga moms, and three dozen cock-sicles (don’t ask) doom our romance to the ‘Where are they now?’ section of MTV’s greatest hits?

You’ll be begging for a taste of Lila Monroe’s new sexy, laugh-out-loud summer romance!

Review

Showing up to a high school reunion is never an easy task, regardless of how many years it’s been, but it’s especially difficult when the hopes and dreams that people struggled to achieve end up falling apart, making them feel like failures and forcing them to reconsider if they’ll be able to be better than their younger selves and reach the goals that now seem much harder to obtain.

This is where Maggie Hayes finds herself when she’s forced to move back in with her parents after her dream of opening her own bakery didn’t work out, and as if that level of embarrassment isn’t enough, she then proceeds to make a fool of herself in front of her high school crush, making the saying fangirl down way more hilarious than its original meaning. But despite her epic fails, Maggie’s dreams of making it as a baker and having a relationship with her dream guy don’t seem impossible because Maggie’s X-rated cock cakes become infamous regardless of their inappropriateness in certain circles and Drew Delaney, Maggie’s guy next door and ex-teen heartthrob, finds her mouthy comebacks and comical behavior exactly what he’s looking for after hanging up his boy band dance moves.

Maggie and Drew’s story illustrates just how fleeting success can be due to the fickleness of contemporary society and the sheer volume of people vying to be the next big thing. What I love about Maggie and Drew, though, is that they are figuring out how to be successful by traveling a different path, determined to make their dreams come true, even if it means taking a slight detour every once and awhile.

Lila Monroe does a great job of showing just how well suited Maggie and Drew are for each other as adults, and with every look, every kiss, every touch, their connection grows, hopefully indicating that Maggie might just have her Mr. Forever as long as they can mesh their professional goals with their personal ones and see their relationship as something more than casual fun.

Mr. Right-Now is a hilarious romantic comedy – one that illustrates just how awkward and embarrassing facing one’s former self can be, especially when their adult-self isn’t quite what s/he thought it would be. Readers will connect with Maggie’s insecurities and embarrassment when it comes to returning to her home town and dealing with old classmates who seem to be way better off than she is, and we can also relate to Maggie’s desire to prove to herself that she’s not a failure and can still make her dreams come true as long as she doesn’t become her own worst enemy.

Envy- A.D. Justice

Though I denied it, envy ruled most of my life.

I was always the outsider among people born to privilege.

Envy made me despise them, the Montague Manor elitists.

Until I fell in love with one of them.

Wyatt Spencer Weston changed my life.

He changed me for the better, at first.

Until his inconceivable betrayal nearly destroyed me.

He recently took control of his family’s business and the vast wealth that comes with it.

I’ve waited years for this day to arrive.

Envy used to rule me. Now a driving need for revenge does.

Wyatt will soon learn a valuable lesson in envy.

When you have everything, you have more to lose.

Revelation – Amy Briggs

Lucinda Quinn couldn’t wait to get out of her small town and make a name for herself in New York City. But what she found was the harsh reality that nothing comes easy. Working as an intern, with long nights and menial tasks doing nothing for her career, she doesn’t bat an eye at becoming an employee of one of New York’s best kept secrets – Infidelity. One year of companionship, with a well-connected rich man in the city, is just the ticket she needs to finally skyrocket her dream of becoming a successful businesswoman.

Ryder Donahue is one of Manhattan’s most eligible bachelors. With a thriving multi-million dollar company, and stunning good looks, he could have any woman he wants. Except that he’s tired of the distraction of the dating scene, filled with nothing but gold diggers, throwing themselves at him for status and money.

Collared-Leteisha Newton

Death changes us all …

Without my husband, my world caved. The business we built together is a prison. Our home, once filled with laughter and passion, is a tomb for what was. I want to give it all away and find a new place to start over. But the needs inside me, long-hidden whispers, won’t leave me alone. What I crave, a newfound darkness to match the pain, is impossible to ignore.

When Infidelity offers me a chance for fulfillment and a companion with no strings, I grasped it with both hands.

My Master is hurting. He’s filled with agonies and releases them on my flesh. We push and pull, an Owner and his slave, and I am helpless at his feet. But he strengthens me, giving me the power to fight his demons and substitute for what he’s lost.

I wasn’t supposed to fall in love, shouldn’t want to be more than a replacement. But I did, and I do. We only have the agreement between us, but I want him to own me irrevocably. Forever, always, to keep me …

Collared.

Diamonds by N Kuhn

As a diamond broker for the Costello crime family, you should never, ever, fall in love, with the Feds, especially one sexy black haired, green eyed vixen, set on putting you away.

They say, diamonds are a girl’s best friend. But when they are blood diamonds, from a criminal you’re supposed to put away, this Federal Agent can’t keep them, or him. Can she?

 

 

Devious-Solease Barner

Revenge is best served cold… until her.

Jaxson Montgomery has worked long and hard to climb to the top of the business world. His company is one in which image and connections mean success or failure. He’s known as ‘The Fixer’, and for the right price, he can make any problem disappear. His services are sought by the wealthiest and most famous people across the globe… and, quite often, the most notorious and criminally inclined as well. He’s respected by men and adored by women. To society, he appears to be a man with everything, good looks, charm, wealth, and, if he so desires, a different woman every night of the week.

But in his world, appearances are only a matter of perception. Jaxson Montgomery does not have everything. There’s one thing he desperately wants and he’s determined to have it, by any means necessary. After tragedy in his own life leaves him reeling and broken with a problem even he’s unable to fix, Jaxson is determined to seek retribution. He has the perfect plan. It’s devious, dark, and dangerous, but failure is not an option. Jaxson learned long ago to keep his friends close and enemies, closer. He’s prepared to do whatever it takes to have his revenge… even if it means sleeping with the enemy.

And the beautiful Silvia Demetri is the perfect pawn. After all, revenge is always best served cold…

Until it isn’t.

Kindhearted Silvia Demetri doesn’t have the perfect life. Yet, to the world, she appears to have everything a woman could possibly want… beauty, intelligence, sophistication, money. But we all know, appearances can be deceiving. There’s something missing, something very important. She yearns for love, but has given up all hope of finding it.

When Silvia begins preparations for her annual charity foundation event, little does she know her entire life is about to be changed by a simple chance encounter with a handsome, charming stranger, one who will sweep her off her feet, make her feel things she’s never experienced, and turn her world upside down.

A man who knows nothing about her or her family… or so she thinks.

But what if meeting Jaxson Montgomery wasn’t chance at all…

Maybe it was something far more devious.

Captivate – Stacey Lynn  

Claudia Townsend, daughter of disgraced Judge Keith Townsend needs a fresh start, and in New York, she finds exactly what she’s looking for.

Raised with poise and grace and a lifetime of being around the wealthiest members of society in Savannah, Georgia, becoming a client of Infidelity makes perfect sense. It offers her everything she needs—financial security, a new life, and the possibility of final getting rid of her pesky V-Card.

What—or who—she doesn’t expect, is for Liam Allistor to come crashing in and messing up all of her new plans.

Liam Allistor has more secret than he has tattoos. His deep set black eyes and banging body along with his mystery allure is what makes panties drop as soon as he steps on stage in crowded arenas. But then he’s rocked by a scandal and his ticket sales plummet. His tour ends at breakneck speed, and everyone, including Liam, is left wondering if his career has come to a screeching halt.

He needs a publicity makeover, but more than that…he needs a girlfriend. And Infidelity is just the place for him to find one.

His agent wants him to clean up his image. Infidelity wants his money and silence.

And Liam? He wants Claudia, and he doesn’t care what he has to do to get her.

REVIEW: Alex in Wonderland by Max Monroe

Blurb

From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Max Monroe comes a new, sexy, and exciting twist on fairytales.

I’m Matt Hadder. 
I’ve been called ruthless, savage—even brutal—by the men and women who work for me. And I’ve earned my reputation.

Wonderland Inc., a party planning organization for every major player in the world, is Oz, and I’m its Wizard. I can make anything—drugs, prostitutes, deals—appear for a night and disappear just as quickly.

This doesn’t make me good or bad—it makes me essential.

Wonderland Inc. was my life, until a beautiful contradiction of innocence and impurity, obedience and rebelliousness named Alex Little stepped in and turned both of our worlds upside down.

Welcome to Wonderland, Alex.
A place where everything appears normal.
But we’re all mad.

Disclaimer: Exercise caution while reading. Evidence shows that Matt Hadder’s vibrant sexiness and alpha manner may lead to confusion, arousal, and questioning the necessity of one’s own moral code.

Review

Max Monroe’s carefully construction Wonderland, Inc. is definitely not Alice’s, but this darker and decadent version of the fairy tale world has Alex Little falling down a rabbit’s hole and involved with a Mad Hatter of a more dangerous and deadly variety. It’s an environment where anything goes…where there’s no such thing as only good or only bad when it comes to the members of this organization…where its surface depicts one idea and then hidden beneath the veil is something entirely different.

The setting for Alex in Wonderland is not for children, not even the one that serves as the cover for a lot of the party hosts and guests’ nefarious acts. Nevertheless, it is the one that Alex finds herself in when her job in a rabbit costume puts her in the path of Matt Hadder – the man at the helm of Wonderland, Inc. A man whose calm and controlled exterior conceals his ruthlessness and savagery. Matt rules with an iron fist and isn’t afraid to use fear, bribery, and blackmail to protect his clients, his employees, and even himself.

Alex Little is a curious person by nature, so when she’s invited into Matt’s world and is introduced to its sexy and sinister ways, she has to decide if she can be part of an environment that blurs the lines of right/wrong, good/bad, and legal/illegal, and interestingly enough, this innocent and moral beauty understands why an organization like Wonderland exists and excels because it’s human nature to push boundaries, to live life on one’s own terms, and to revel in a level of debauchery than can only exist if there are willing participants, and what Alex realizes is that this alternate universe that Matt has built and molded can only thrive with the backing of powerful and wealthy people, proving without a doubt, that people are only a little mad!

The path of Alex and Matt’s relationship doesn’t follow a straight line, which makes sense because, at first, they live in completely different worlds, but when a set of circumstances brings them together, what starts out as a potential liability becomes a connection that neither Alex nor Matt are willing to give up, despite her fear and his need to not show weakness as the head of a company that is ripe with deceit and has people looking to get ahead by any means necessary.

Alex in Wonderland is strikingly different than what Max Monroe readers have come to expect from the sassy and hilarious writing duo, but the new world they introduce us to in their first twisted fairytale is just as enticing and dynamic as any of their other stories; in fact, there’s a depth to Alex and Matt’s story with its explanation of human nature and the gray area concerning the deeds of men that isn’t necessarily a component of their other series because the settings and feel of the books are completely different than the mysteriously dark world that Max Monroe creates in this latest release.

And, with the titles of Max Monroe’s other twisted fairytales, I can’t wait to see what alternate universes they send readers to and how amazing it will be to explore these warped, adult versions of children’s classics.

RELEASE BLITZ PROMO: Beard Up by Lani Lynn Vale

Title: Beard Up

Series: The Dixie Warden Rejects MC #6

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre: MC Romance

Release: July 27, 2017

Cover Model: Chase Ketron http://bit.ly/2qeeuih  @ChaseKetronFitnessModelFanpage4

Photographer: Golden at Furious Fotog http://bit.ly/2qexHAr  @FuriousFotog

Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35003202-beard-up

Ghost [gohst] noun:  the soul of a dead person, a disembodied, vague, shadowy spirit wandering among or haunting living persons; a mere shadow or semblance; a trace.

That noun sums up Ghost and what his life has become with painful precision.  He is barely living, merely existing but never thriving. There wasn’t much that could pull him from the darkness he willingly inhabits…except one thing.  Her.

She is the reason he’s done what he’s done, and his life has become what it has become.

He haunts his former life, lurking in the background, surviving on occasional glimpses of the only thing good that is left in his miserable life. The horror he has inflicted upon her is nothing compared to the terror that waits for her when someone moves in to take her from him.

The thing about being stuck in the past is that it is like walking through life backwards. She is always looking back, so she doesn’t see what is happening in front of her. Unfortunately for her, it turns out that the ghosts of the past aren’t nearly as terrifying as the monsters of the future.

They say that true love is like a ghost, something that many talk about but few have seen. It’s a good thing for that, too, because he’ll need that element of surprise to protect her. Hopefully when the dust settles, he’ll be able to resurrect more than just himself.

I’m a married mother of three.
My kids are all under 5, so I can assure you that they are a handful.
I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us.
I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.
