The Syndicate - Cover Reveal

Cover Reveal!

I fell for this author duo after reading their Young Adult Science Fiction/Dystopian, The Talented Saga so I am quite excited about this new series and to help reveal the first book, The Syndicate's cover.  So with out further ado......

Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls of all ages, from both the future and the past...

We proudly present to you the cover of the exciting new release coming this Fall from Sophie Davis




Expected Release: September 2015


Book Description:

In a future where time travel has been outlawed, a black market exists for anyone with the money, connections, and nerve to request items from days past...

As a Runner for one of the underground syndicates that now controls the timewaves, Stassi 2334 has seen it all: the fall of Rome, the rise of Hitler, the end of democracy, the establishment of time tourism, and the devastating consequences of it. Stassi’s job is to seamlessly slip through the past, in search of items of value to the syndicate's clientele.

Stassi's next assignment takes her to Paris in the 1920’s, in search of a lost manuscript by one of the twentieth century’s greatest writers. She and her partner, Gaige, are swept up in the City of Light during the height of fashion and culture—as alluring a locale as they’ve ever visited. But a seedier side of life lurks beneath the glamorous façade, and the pair quickly discovers that this run is more dangerous than any of their previous missions.
Stassi and Gaige must ultimately decide how far they’re willing to go to ensure the future as they know it.






"Sophie Davis" is the pseudonym for two best friends, roommates, and now writing partners. The pair met at Penn State's Dickinson School of Law in 2005 and instantly bonded over their love of great books and bad horror movies. After they graduated, when one longed for the ability to read minds so she wouldn't have to study for the bar exam, a Saga was born. When the Talented Saga went on to be an internationally bestselling series, the girls decided to throw caution to the wind and follow their shared life-long dream of being writers.

The duo currently lives in Washington, D.C. with a poodle and an adorable rescued mutt. The pups are their faithful companions—with frequent social media appearances—as the girls navigate the world of Indie Publishing.



Unfinished Love - Cover Reveal (Books 1 & 2)


We are very excited to share the first 2 covers to the BRAND NEW Unfinished Love series.

Each fighting for their second first chance at love.
Years be damned.
A compelling new series from New York Times bestselling author Violet Duke.









BEFORE THAT NIGHT
(Unfinished Love, Book 1: Caine & Addison)

Before that night, Addison Millan had been just a college dropout secretly raising her two young siblings in a beat-up minivan she’d bought with her first semester’s tuition refund—the only money her addict mother hadn’t taken off with when she’d abandoned them the year prior.

Before that night, Caine Spencer had been just a rough, gruff cop sent to check out the phoned-in claims of suspected child neglect involving the same woman he’d met a month ago when she’d first served him the city’s worst diner coffee...which he’d been drinking daily ever since.

Before that night, Addison would never have thought the man she’d been fighting hard not to fall for—her only friend in her new shadow of a life—would be in a position to rip her family apart.

Before that night, Caine would never have believed any woman could make him fall head over heels, let alone make him feel so damn compelled to look the other way when it came to his job.

                    Then that one perfect night changed everything.






HIS TO LOVE
(Unfinished Love, Book 2: Caine & Addison)

Seven years.

Seven damn years of wondering whether the woman was still alive…whether she’d spent the last two thousand five hundred fifty five days wondering if he was still alive.

Wondering whether that night was as burned into her memory as it was his. 

Seven years having his heart tethered to Addison—and now she’s back. With even more reasons to run than she’d had then.

This time, Caine isn’t letting the gorgeous little flight risk out of his sight.

Regardless of how noble her reasons may be.






BEFORE THAT NIGHT (Book 1) chronicles the destiny-altering events that take place seven years prior to HIS TO LOVE (Book 2), Caine & Addison’s explosive story of love, sacrifice, and the lengths one will run—and chase—when their past threatens their future.

 Book Description:

Revenge is an euphoric thing. Trust me on this. Nothing compares to the release you get when you ruin someone’s life. When they’ve stolen important things. Things that didn’t belong to them. Things I revel in making them pay for. What? Have I offended you? I’m not here to appeal to your delicate senses. I have no intention of placating your wishes or living within your personal belief system nor do I care if you hate me. And you will hate me. Because I’m a brutal, savage, cold-blooded murderer and I’m here for my revenge. I’m Ethan Moonsong...And this is the story about how I went from the world’s most sacrificing man to the most feared and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.


Excerpt:

I decided that night I no longer cared to get myself under control. I decided I wanted a drink instead.
“Vi, one more?”
            “Sure, darlin’.”
I nodded when she set down the glass and walked toward another customer.
            “I’m surprised you’re in here again,” I heard over my shoulder, and I tensed.
            “What are you doing here?” I asked Finley.
            “Lookin’ for your dumb ass.”
            “Why?” I asked as she sat down beside me.
            “Oh, I don’t know, maybe because I’m an idiot? Maybe because I’m bored?” She sighed. “I don’t know.”
            The bell above the door rang out and we both turned to see Spencer Blackwell and Cricket Hunt walk in holding hands as if they didn’t have a care in the world.
            I narrowed my eyes and tried to steady my breathing. “What the fuck are they doing here?” I asked no one.
            My eyes locked in on them as they moved to the opposite side of the large room. They had no idea I was there. They sat together, totally unaware that their mere existence in that moment bruised me more brutally than I’d felt in a long time. I studied Caroline, the palm of my hand absently rubbing at the knot in the center of my chest. My Caroline. She had no idea just how much she’d worn me out since we’d broken up, worn my body and my soul. I felt too heavy to carry around since she’d gone from me. Far too heavy. She’d been unintentionally cruel, but cruel nonetheless. So I swallowed back the lump in my throat, a lump she’d put there with our childhood memories, our laughs, our love. The ache. The awful ache she caused me.
I continued to watch her. She was laughing, so happy, and very much in the moment with him. And that’s when I saw it. Saw what Finley and everyone else saw. She had never looked at me the way she was looking at him, and I was suddenly sick with jealousy and a terrible, terrible hatred. His hand wrapped around the back of her neck and I snapped. My hands trembled on the surface of my glass and I breathed from my nose in seething anger.
Finley whipped her head my direction, her eyes wide. “Let’s go,” she pleaded.
“Get out of here,” I ordered her.
“No,” she whispered, placing her hand on my own.
I peered into her eyes. “Just. Go.”
I stood up and threaded my way through the bodies. There was nothing planned, no finite idea, but I knew I wanted to get to my truck, the passenger side, the glove box. I shoved through the bar door and into the summer night, my blood pumping through my veins. My truck was parked in the space closest to the street, and each footstep it took to get me there felt like an eternity. I clomped through the gravel lot and threw open the passenger door. I’d forgotten that the glove box had been locked. My hand found my pocket to dig out my keys but they were stuck at odd angles, making it difficult or maybe it was that I was too drunk to remove them with any kind of finesse. This made me pause, but my body couldn’t catch up with the thought and I pitched forward, my hand clumsily finding the edge of the roof of the cab. I swayed and the memory of his hand on her neck renewed my fury.
“I told you you’d feel my wrath, Spencer Blackwell,” I spoke to no one. “And I never break a promise.”

Gentleman Mentor - Release Day Launch








**** THIS IS AN 18 and UP READ****


Book Description:

He calls himself the Gentleman Mentor.
Just reading his ad makes me feel more alive than I have in years.
He promises to teach me the art of seduction … and show me the most sinfully erotic pleasures. He’s going to help me become the kind of confident, sexy woman men can’t ignore.
Six lessons … with the most gorgeous man … who happens to be a Dom.
The only problem … now that I’ve experienced his brand of delectable domination will anyone else ever compare?

She’s a client. That’s all.
Or it should be.
But with every lesson, she’s becoming more.
The secrets I’m hiding behind the image of the Gentleman Mentor make telling her the truth—and having anything real—impossible.
I’m training her for another man, and that fact guts me every time I think of it.
I know she’s not mine … but part of me won’t accept that.
Am I willing to risk it all to keep her?

Super Fly - A Mom Monday Review





Author: Todd H. Doodler
Publication Date:  May 5, 2015
Publisher:  Bloomsbury USA Childrens
Series:  Super Fly, book 1
Genre:  Middle Grade
Age Recommendation:  7 and up
Rating:  3 Stars


Book Description:

From just a tiny larva in diapers to . . . SUPER FLY! This is the story of Eugene Flystein, a small and nerdy, mild-mannered housefly, who also happens to be the world's smallest superhero and humanity's greatest crime fighter.

SUPER FLY!: Able to stop tornadoes from destroying towns with just one breath. 
Strong enough to push a ship away from a looming iceberg. 
He's even read every book in the library twice. Yes, twice!

Can this four-eyed little bugger, along with his trusty sidekick Fantastic Flea, take on Crazy Cockroach and his army of insect baddies? It's housefly vs. cockroach in this epic battle of good vs. evil. Who will come out on top? Stay tuned!

My Review:

In this silly little tale we meet Eugene Flystein a little nobody of a fly who turns out to be a somebody.  After his family moves to a new town he is thrust into a school that is ruled by one Cornelius Cockroach, a big, mean, nasty bully of a bug who has his eyes set on Eugene.  

This is a silly fun book with a bit of a deep message if you can find it under all the bathroom humor, haha. This easy read is all about learning to stand up for what is right and not letting yourself or your friends get bullied and pushed around.  

This is a good read for the younger of our Middle Grade readers, I think it will appeal most to First through Third graders,  Children that are still have the ability to find the word 'poop' beyond hysterical.  The sentence structure is very simple and easy to read making it great for new readers and the length is perfect so that they don't find themselves bored.  The ending also leaves things wide open for a book 2, which if you r children are like mine is super exciting because they love getting to follow a series.  

I loved the illustrations in this book, they are simple with clean lines and just plan fun to look at.  This is an enjoyable book that will keep your readers interested and wanting to come back for more.  I know I want to come back so I can discover more about Elle, Eugene AKA SuperFly's sister...There is a big story there and I adore how she stands up for her older brother, she's a brave little fly!  

If your young reader likes Captain Underpants or Stink I think think this is a book that will catch their interest.

Publication Date:  April 30, 2015
Publisher:  Left Break Press
Series: Ladder Company, book 1
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Age Recommendation:  18 and up
Rating:  3.5 Stars


Book Description:
 
Melanie Kincaid is a trust-fund baby with a knack for sassy comebacks and unnecessarily complicating her privileged life. So, of course she would have to fall in love with a man she can't have. Jameson Hayes is a NYC firefighter for Manhattan’s oldest ladder company with big shoes to fill and a city to protect. He’s strong, sexy, and not looking for the complications Melanie brings. But he can't stay away from her either. The attraction between them is immediate and the pull between them is crazy powerful. But she's only home for the summer and long-distance relationships never work. Unfortunately, Melanie’s beauty and smart mouth are a lethal combination and Jameson isn't the only Hayes who's interested. As if his brother isn't enough to compete with, now the city's most famous arsonist wants to claim her as his next prize. Jameson can't stand to watch Melanie get hurt and she can't seem to keep herself out of trouble.   Fall for Me is the first Ladder Company novel, a stand-alone companion series about New York's most elite firefighting family with hot alpha heroes, snarky heroines, and an arsonist hell-bent on destruction.


My Review:


I was really excited by the premise of this book and I was not let down in terms of action, and suspense, but sadly the romance never hit the mark quite right for me. While they were witty and fun in the beginning and  there was definite chemistry between the two main characters, Melanie and Jameson they began to drag me down in their at times childish relationship.  I understand that Jameson was trying to be an adult when it came to his situation but it caused their relationship to feel drug out and at times overly frustrating. The reasons for Jameson holding out and hurting himself and Melanie in the process never felt real to me.  I don't want to give away the reason for why he did what he did, he had hard decisions to make, I just didn't appreciate how long it took him to make them, but seriously dude, that was lame!  I'd have given you the finger and never looked back. 

That being said, I love Jameson's family and am rather glad to tell you that he comes from a big family so I see quite a series developing in front of us.  I liked both Melanie and Jameson individually, just not their whole back and forth bit.  I am anxious to learn more about the on-going story line with the criminal events that occur in the book and while I am not a huge fan of cliff-hangers I appreciate that we will see this through out the series.  I am also looking forward to seeing these two again and watching how their relationship develops over time.  We got our HEA with them, but due to the length of time they went back and forth I never felt like we got enough of them actually together. 


I definitely think that this is a serious worth reading and watching.  This is the first book and I can only see great stories in our future.  If you like light and at times frustrating romances with a side of suspense you will want to give this series a try...who can resit a tight knit family with a long history of being NY's finest firefighters anyway? 





“Mom!” I move through the foyer and into the open great room— a large, open living/kitchen combo— where I leave my suitcase and kick off my flats before I hit the carpet. What the hell is she doing with gas? That stuff is toxic. “Well?” Mom says, appearing at the edge of the hall on the other side of the kitchen. She has a hand towel around her neck and one of her many yoga-specific exercise outfits on. This one is a light blue and she’s barefoot. Monica Kincaid is dedicated to many things in life— her husband Christian, her daughters (the youngest, especially), and her charity projects— but yoga is the one out of all of it that I don’t understand. It puts her at peace, she says. “Well?” I ask and drape the dress bag over the island counter top in the kitchen and move around to prop myself up on one of the bar stools. God, that gasoline smell is driving me mad. “Are we planning a spring wedding yet or what?” Mom says with a grin. Her nose wrinkles, catching the scent of the gasoline, I’m sure. “Janet and I have been taking bets.” “God, Mom,” I say and place my head in my hands. “No really,” she says, “Tell me.” “Nothing happened,” I say. Verbalizing it is even more disappointing than it probably should be. Apparently, Mom and Dad were also in on Jameson and Royal’s surprise trip. It took all of an hour after they landed for Janet Hayes to text me telling me she wishes she could have been there. It was sweet, but then she suggested she needed to leave me alone so I could spend as much time as possible with Jameson. And that we shouldn’t be disturbed. While the level of investment our mothers have in our has-yet-to-happen relationship is borderline creepy, the support is pretty awesome. It’s a rarity to find a woman as kind and loving as Janet Hayes is. Even if she doesn’t really know appropriate boundaries and likes to talk about when her sons were starting puberty… in all the gory details. I know more about Jameson’s solo activities when he was a kid more than I care to. “You must be joking,” she says and heads to the fridge where she pulls out a single-serve cup of yogurt. “That man flew down to that god-awful place—,”
 


As a child, JC was fascinated by things that went bump in the night. As they say, some things never change. Now, as an adult, she divides her time between the sexy law men, mythical creatures, and kick-ass heroines that live inside her head and pursuing her bachelor's degree in English. JC is a San Francisco Bay Area native, but has also called both Texas and Louisiana home. These days she rocks her flip flops year round in Northern California and can't imagine a climate more beautiful. JC writes adult, new adult, and young adult fiction. She dabbles in many different genres including science fiction, horror, chick lit, and murder mysteries, yet she is most enthralled by supernatural stories-- and everything has at least a splash of romance.
