Bitter Love by Emily Goodwin

 

Bitter Love by Emily Goodwin is now live!

If there's one thing I know to be certain in life, it's to expect the unexpected. I never expected to become a teen mom or have to flee a toxic relationship years later. And I certainly never expected to go head-to-head with Jacob Harris, doctor of veterinary medicine, to prove I'm worthy of running the struggling rescue full of misfit animals I suddenly inherited.

Jacob is as smug as he is good looking, and I refuse to let that cocky grin or sharp jawline distract me. I won't go down without a fight, and this time, it'll be easy to stand my ground when my opponent is someone I can't stand--even though my body reacts whenever he's around. This time I'm not backing down no matter how much he gets under my skin.

But the more I push, the more he pulls...until I don't know what I'm more at a risk of losing: the rescue or my heart.

I have been dying to get my hands on Jacob’s story for some time now and what we are given is a raw and passionate story. Not just about a relationship but for the love of horses. You can really feel the author's joy and love for the animal bleed into these pages and I am living for it. Josie is a fighter. Right from the start, regardless of how scared she was being a teen mom, she fought to make life good for Everly. When things get rough for Everly, and they pack up to Josie’s aunt’s place, a chain of events change their course for life. But the determination and grit that Josie has is inspiring. Enter Jacob, who, while at times being a little bit of a jerk to Josie, just wants what is best for her and the horse rescue. These two verbally spare like it is foreplay and gives this book such an epic slow burn that is so combustible.

Overall, this is a great addition to the series and I am now dying to get my hands on Mason’s story because that boy is intriguing and a half! With that said, I adore the concept and the passion that Goodwin has woven within these pages about the horses and rescue as a whole.

Oh my stars! Where do I begin with this one? I mean, I have been intrigued with Spider since we first met him in prior books but what a wild ride this one was. What started out as one thing, completely turned into another with insane and unexpected twists that will keep you on your toes from start to finish. I lived for Reyna! She was just as fierce as the previous ladies but there was something about her grit and determination that made her that much more epic. She is a fighter, loves her niece and would do anything to protect her. Mix Reyna and Spider together, you get insane fireworks, hate to love but love to hate and such a ride! There are so many twists and turns within these pages that I could not get enough.

While I am sad that this series is over, I am so happy it happened. Geissinger gives us something so brutally stunning with this series that I lived for every book as they each brought something different to the table. However, I think this one, Brutal Vows, is my favorite. There is just something about that spark between Reyna and Spider! Time to binge this series because you NEED these Queens and their monsters in your life!



Excerpt

2
Spider
I get only a glimpse of the woman in the window before the curtains fall back into place and she disappears, but the image of her is seared onto my retinas.
Dark hair, red lips, olive skin.
A black, low-cut dress.
Acres of cleavage.
And eyes that glittered silver in the afternoon sun like the flash of coins at the bottom of a wishing well.
She can’t be Liliana, the lass I’m here to meet. I’ve seen pictures of her. She has a sweet, innocent face. A shy, lovely smile.
The woman in the window looks like she’d only smile if she were slitting your throat.
Mindful of the armed guards, I say in Gaelic to Kieran, “I thought the lass’s mother died?”
Standing beside me, he follows my gaze and looks up at the blank window.
“Aye. Why?”
“Who else lives here?”
He shrugs. “Dunno. From the size of the bloody place, probably a thousand people.”
She’s not a servant, that much I know. There wasn’t a hint of servitude in those flashing eyes.
She looked more like a warlord about to lead an army of soldiers into battle.
“This way,” says the guard nearest to me. He nods toward an arched opening in the brick wall that leads from the circular driveway into an interior courtyard.
Dismissing the thought of the mystery woman, I button my suit jacket and follow behind the guard as he leads Kieran and me away from the car. The other guard walks behind us. We’re led through the lushly landscaped courtyard to a set of enormous carved oak doors, flanked on either side by towering marble columns.
The main house looms over us, three sprawling stories of beige limestone with elaborate balustrades and scrolled iron balconies, topped by a line of Roman centurion statues gazing down at us from a ledge on the red-tiled roof.
Inside the main foyer, the décor becomes even more ostentatious.
Naked cherubs frolic with hairy satyrs and woodland nymphs in colorful frescoes on the walls. Instead of one drop-crystal chandelier overhead, there are three. The floor is black marble, the carved mahogany furniture is edged in gilt, and my eyes are starting to water from the kaleidoscope glare of stained-glass windows.
Under his breath, Kieran says, “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. Looks like Liberace hurled his lunch all over the bloody place.”
He’s right. It’s fucking awful.
I have to force myself not to turn around and walk out.
“Ah, Mr. Quinn!”
I turn to my right. A man approaches with his hands spread open in greeting.
He’s fit, of average height, and somewhere around forty. His dark hair is slicked back with pomade. Wearing a navy blue pinstripe suit I can tell is custom made, a powder blue tie with a diamond tie pin, a chunky diamond watch, and a gold pinky ring on each hand, he oozes wealth, privilege, and power.
His cologne reaches me before he does.
His smile is blinding.
I hate him on sight.
“Mr. Caruso, I presume.”
He grabs one of my hands in both of his and pumps it up and down like he’s a political candidate campaigning for my vote.
“It’s a pleasure to finally meet you. Welcome to my home.”
“Thank you. It’s a pleasure to meet you as well.”
He hasn’t stopped grinning or shaking my hand.
Ten more seconds of this shite, and I’ll break those Chiclet teeth of his.
“This is my associate, Mr. Byrne.” I extract my hand from Caruso’s death grip and gesture to Kieran, who inclines his head respectfully.
“Sir.”
“Mr. Byrne, welcome. And please, both of you, call me Gianni. I prefer if we’re all on a first name basis, don’t you?”
I’d rather blind myself with acid, you wanker.
Kieran politely offers his name. I offer nothing. There’s an awkward pause while Caruso waits, but he gets the hint and suggests we retire to his study to speak in private.
After what feels like a death march through miles of echoing corridors, we arrive at the study. It’s probably larger than the law library at Notre Dame. We sit across from Caruso in a pair of leather chairs so uncomfortable, they had to be designed by sadists.
I haven’t been here ten minutes, and I’m already regretting the fuck out of this.
Until she walks in the door.
Dark hair, red lips, olive skin.
A black, low-cut dress.
Acres of cleavage.
Not only cleavage, but long legs and an hourglass figure that would make any man stupid with lust.
If he wasn’t too busy being turned to stone by the ice in her eyes, that is. I’ve never seen an attractive serial killer, but I bet this is exactly what she’d look like.

Cover Reveal: When a Moth Loved a Bee by Pepper Winters

Release date TBA 2022

New York Times Bestseller, Pepper Winters, delivers a brand new passionately raw and romantically dangerous Dark Fantasy Romance.

Special Preorder price of $3.99 will go to $4.99 on release.

Not all love stories begin with connection. Not all romances grow into affection. And not all soulmates are destined to be together.
However, this is not that kind of story.
This story?
Stars, where do I begin?
I could tell you when I fell in love with her. I could tell you how we fought so hard to belong. And I could tell you where it all went so horribly wrong.
But that would ruin our tale.
Instead, I'll just tell you that we are the reason the world wept and turned to ashes.

Darro is a Child of the Moon.
Captive on Vremya island, he was found instead of born. Gifted by the moon and imprisoned by prophecy, his masters wait to see if he is the one foreseen to destroy the world.

Runa is a Child of the Sun.
Delivered by an eclipse on the night of a full moon, she is everything the masters have feared. It is said that the fate of Simperium exists within her palm, and unless she is guided and protected, she will deliver death instead of life.

What a shame prophecy didn't warn them what would happen when a moth fell in love with a bee...

Full Blurb, Cover, and Release Date to be advised. Preorder date is a placeholder only and will be confirmed soon. Guaranteed 2022 release. Not suitable for under R18 due to the graphic nature and explicit content of this Dark Fantasy Romance.

Meet Me At Midnight by Melissa Toppen

 




Title: Meet Me at Midnight
Author: Melissa Toppen
Genre: Friends to Lovers Romance
Release Date: April 29, 2022


BLURB

Meet me at midnight- whispered words from drunken lips.
Lips that I had spent years wanting to kiss.
Lips that I had dreamt about night after night, waking to wonder what if.
What if he noticed me?
What if he wanted me?
What if…
But I quickly learned some things are better left to wonder.
Especially where Levi Mills is concerned.
He didn’t just steal my innocence that night.
He broke every part of me.
Dismantled me from the inside out until there was nothing left of the girl I used to be.
Years passed. Moments faded into the background. Until eventually he became nothing more than a distant memory- a dream that almost didn’t seem real.
But then suddenly he’s there, standing in front of me again like he never left. And in that one heartbeat, in that one breath, I relive it all over again. Every touch. Every word. Like frozen snippets of time suspended in front of my eyes.
And then he smiles that all too familiar smile, meet me at midnight moving soundlessly across his lips.

This is one of those second chance/best friends to lovers type romance that will hit you with the swoon, the feels and intense emotions. There is a lot to unpack from this story because of the trauma that Levi has in his head from his past. Which in turn bleeds into what he ultimately destroyed with Olive. Fast Forward six years later, and he is back and wants to not only make things right but get that second chance with Olive. There are some heartbreaking moments, some raw ones plus some sizzling ones that all meld together to make this story. Lots of soul searching as well not just for Levi but for Olive as well. But this story is about growing, forgiveness and ultimately being with your one that makes you whole.

Oh my stars. The ending to this epic series was just everything. I lived for the dynamics that is River and her men. It is intense, twisty with something so unexpected that happens, to a story of finding your footing, love and so much more. Threats that were not honestly expected when they did happen to opening up and growing. My heart ached so much for Jax as he is still trying to navigate his trauma to Zach actually caring with Diesel being that rock for this group. River is the balm on their souls and I lived for it. There is so much raw passion within these pages as well. It gets really steamy, really emotional and everything in between. I loved the blend from start to finish and I am sad to leave this group but DYING to get my hands on the next books!

We get a stunning second chance romance between Miranda and Ransom and you are taken on a wild ride of twists and deception. While Miranda is engaged to be married, things are not what they seem. Ransom rolls into town and the insanity ensues! These two cannot deny the connection they still have. It is raw and emotional between these two and I adored them rebuilding their relationship.

I have been dying to get my hands on this story between Lawson aka Judge and Mercedes! I had been intrigued by the arrangement made by her brother with Judge and oh my stars is it intense. Not gonna lie, I am not sure how much Mercedes is redeemable after what happened within the first set of books but you cannot help but love her fierce love for her family and determination. But Judge.. Oh man, that one is sin on a stick that makes you question so much. There is an intense slow burn within these pages as this is only book one in this set and the build is insane to say the least.

I have to say, these two authors, when they co-write, are pure magic. I cannot get enough of their words on their own but together, gimmie it all! I am dying to get my hands on the next book of this trilogy because I need answers and I so need more Judge!
