Blitzes, Reviews, and Release Date Announcement
Today, Widow of Papina has a blitz going on, so I'm being tweeted links to blogs like crazy! I'm glad to see it getting some noise around it, and I hope it picks up a bit of momentum.
The blitz for Quest for a Popstar is on January 16th, which is also it's release date! It's coming up so fast. If you want to join the blitz, sign up HERE.
Both books are available for review. I'd love to see some reviews up on the day of QfaP's release, and I'd love to see some reviews on Amazon and Goodreads for WoP. You can request Quest for a Popstar HERE and Widow of Papina HERE.

In other news, I am now back in college! I intend to earn my degree to become a Secondary English Teacher! So excited. I'm currently working at an Elementary school as an Interventionist, so I'm getting some real world skills while studying. But, because of work and school, my releases will likely slow down for a while. I'll work on keeping the series current, but new projects won't be in the works for a while. The studying should help improve my writing skills though, which, in the long run will be beneficial for my readers! Yay!
That's it! Update complete.

I NEED reviewers for:
Widow of Papina
Quest for a Popstar
(Reality Romance #1)
(Cover and links still to come)
Blurb:
I haven’t done much performing, not since high school. Yet
here I am, backstage, waiting for my turn to audition.
I’m excited, I’m nervous, and after witnessing the talent of
the Murphy family that performs before me, I almost throw in the towel. But I
don’t. I walk out on that stage, and what happens next is something I never
could have predicted.
The events that follow all fall like well lined-up dominoes.
My life, my world, everything
changes. Suddenly success is overshadowed by exploitation, loyalty wrecked with
betrayal, and trust gets slaughtered by life changing secrets.
Oh, and then there’s Lucas, the guy—of course there’s a guy—who might end up being the deciding factor
on whether walking out on that stage would end up being the best decision of my
life…
…or the worst.

Blog Tour: Capturing the Captain by @authorckbrooke
Capturing the Captain
(America Pirate Romance #1)
by C.K. Brooke
Genre: Adult Historical Adventure Romance
Release Date: April 26th 2016
Limitless Publishing
Summary from Goodreads:
In 1720, it’s a pirate’s life for Abigail Clear, daughter of a notorious colonial pirate captain…
But when a rival crew invades Abigail’s ship, she is taken prisoner. Now aboard the enemy vessel, she must contend with its formidable captain. But who is the real captive?
Locked away in the belly of The Indomitable is no place for a woman…
Captain James Morrow is more than displeased to discover his sole captive to be none other than an untamable young lass who will earn him no bounty. Yet if he can soften the little rogue, she just might switch her loyalties to him, and reveal the whereabouts of the infamous thief who sired her—and his stolen treasure. But two can play that game, as Abi is equally inclined to charm the dogged sailor off her father’s tail.
Might she and Captain Morrow run the risk of falling for their own charades?
They dance about their disguises as genuine developing emotions clash against deeper motives, and suspicion runs high. When the captain finally steals a first kiss, Abi decides it’s high time to make her escape—fleeing not only his vessel, but her fondness for the man who intends to see her father hang.
The high seas heat up as Captain Morrow’s quest to recapture Abi is halted by her pirate father, Captain Clear. Will James succeed in pursuit of his captive love, or will his desires conspire to make him a captive himself?

Excerpt:
“Well, don’t just stand there, gaping like a codfish,”
snapped the captain, the corner of his mouth twitching. “I want my decks
shining by noon.”
If Abi had been gaping before, now her jaw truly dropped.
“You want me to wash your decks?”
Morrow stepped in. Nearby, more sailors looked up from their
labor to watch. “Scrub it spotless,” he growled.
Abi rested her hands on her hips. “I’m no one’s swabber. I
did no such task on my father’s ship, and I sure as hell ain’t doing it on
yours.” She shook her head. “Clean an enemy vessel,” she scoffed, turning back.
A large, cool hand gripped her arm, just above her elbow.
Abi had to stop. “Excuse me.” The captain reeled her in, speaking under his
breath. “But do ye notice anyone absent here? None of my crew is above
maintaining the cleanliness and orderliness I expect. Least of all, you. Pirate.”
Abi knew he must have meant it as an insult, the way he spat
the last word. And yet, her pride couldn’t help but inflate. “You’re right.”
She looked him square in the eye. “I am a pirate. Which means I’m not
part of your crew.” She whipped her arm out of his hold. “And I don’t have to
answer to you.”

Blog Tour: Competing with the Star by Krysten Lindsay Hager
Competing with the Star
Release Date: March 22nd
2016
Limitless Publishing
Summary from Goodreads:
The
perfect guy, the perfect location. What could go wrong?
Hadley Daniels’s life seems perfect…
Before the beginning of sophomore year of high school, Hadley and her family move to a beautiful beach town, where she makes amazing new friends and lands the boyfriend of her dreams—Nick Jenkins. He’s the kind of guy every girl swoons over, and it isn’t long until Hadley discovers some are still swooning.
A famous ex-girlfriend makes matters more complicated…
After some time dating, Hadley and Nick form a deep bond. But insecurity sets in when Hadley discovers her boyfriend once had a huge crush on her friend—who just happens to be the beautiful former teen TV star, Simone Hendrickson.
The past is the past—or so they say…
Hadley confronts Nick, who confesses about his history with Simone. Though he claims to only have eyes for Hadley now, it’s hard to believe—especially when she’s blindsided with the news that Nick and Simone kissed after school.
Now Hadley must determine who is telling the truth. Love, betrayal, friendship…who needs soap opera drama when you’re busy competing with a star?

Now Hadley must determine who is telling the truth. Love, betrayal, friendship…who needs soap opera drama when you’re busy competing with a star?
Excerpt:
Two days passed and Nick hadn’t called again. I couldn’t
blame him. After all, I had pushed for him to be honest and then had bailed on
him. I’m sure he was mad at me for telling him he could tell me the truth and
then I punished him for it—and he would be right. I couldn’t handle the icky
feelings, and instead of being a big girl and dealing with them, I came home
from school and retreated into the world of books. A world where people were
kidnapped, jewels were stolen, but nobody’s heart ever got broken because in my
favorite series, The Raven Chronicles, Raven’s boyfriend, Fernando, was ever
faithful and loyal and would never even look at another girl. He was the
perfect book boyfriend. In other words, he was fictional and didn’t exist.
I saw I had a text from Simone. Oh great, maybe she was
asking for my blessing to go out with Nick, or if I was still planning to go to
Watson High School next year so she could make out with him in a different
hallway from my locker.
Simone: Are you mad at me? Nick said you’re upset because
you found out he used to like me.
Oh fabulous. He told her the whole gross story. Well, of
course he did, seeing as how he was always over with her clique and he could
tell the love of his life anything.
Me: Whatever. It’s not important.
Simone: He said he hasn’t talked to you in days because you
hung up on him and won’t return his messages.
Me: It’s not a big deal.
Simone: It is to him. You hurt him. You know I don’t like
him, right?
Me: Did you ever?
Simone: Can we talk about this on the phone? I’m calling
you.
I had no choice but to pick up. “Okay, I’m going to be
honest with you,” Simone said after I answered the phone. “He was super crazy
about me and honestly, it freaked me out a little. And did I think about going
out with him? Not right away, but yeah. I thought about it, but he only started
to look cute to me once he was with you. I know that sounds super bad, but I didn’t
notice him until you guys were a thing.”
“What?” I asked. It felt like my stomach plummeted several
stories down.

Excerpt:
“I don’t believe it.” His words were low and guttural. “After all of my patience with you…”
Abi snorted. “Patience?”
He took another step. “The kindness I’ve shown you…”
“Kindness!"
“This is how you treat me in return?”
Had Abi been a gentler woman, she might have lowered her eyes. However, she had the audacity not to.
“Your kiss, your sketch and company were but charades as you bade your time to deceive me,” he snarled. “And there I was, risking my hide and that of my friends to rescue you!”
“I do not need rescuing!” Abi whirled around and marched across the sand.

Blog Tour: Russian Tattoos by Kat Shehata
Published by: Limitless Publishing
Publication date: January 12th 2016
Genres: New Adult, Romance, Suspense
Synopsis:
Falling in love isn’t a crime—but falling in love with a Russian mob boss could be deadly.
Competitive tennis player Carter Cook wants a taste of freedom. Her overprotective father monitors every aspect of her life, so when he becomes employed by Vladimir Ivanov –a sexy Russian with an array of tattoos and an accent that weakens her knees—a taste of danger is within Carter’s grasp. Behind her father’s back, she enjoys spending time with Vladimir at his lavish estate. But is he really the upstanding businessman she believes him to be?
Vladimir Ivanov—godfather of a Russian mafia crime ring.
Vladimir spent five years of his life in a Siberian prison camp and has earned every tattoo inked into his skin. He is a powerful man who gets what he wants, and after stalking the gorgeous tennis player for years—he wants Carter. A little charm melts her heart, and behind the scenes, he orders his henchman to track her every move.
He’s a tattooed stick of dynamite ready to blow at the slightest spark.
As their romance reaches deadly levels, Carter senses something’s not right. When she’s lured into a compromising position at the hands of a shady European drug dealer, she calls in Boris, Vladimir’s right hand man, to rescue her—without telling Vladimir. With his authority questioned, he sets out to teach Carter a lesson about loyalty she’ll never forget.
When Carter realizes she’s in too deep, she must fight for her freedom before the attraction turns fatal. But the Russian mafia plays for keeps, and Vladimir’s fierce lust to possess her spirals their romance out of control.

Author's
Favorite Scene:
First,
I want to thank you for interviewing me about my new release, Russian
Tattoos. It is an honor to be featured on your blog.
Being an author is
the best job in the world. I love what I do, and I am grateful for every single
person who chooses to read my work. I
love writing the intense and dramatic scenes where Vladimir unleashes his dark
side, and the scenes where he lets his guard down and makes Carter feel like
the most important person in the universe. My favorite gritty scene is the one
that was most difficult to write: Chapter Twelve—Filthy.
Up
until this point, Vladimir has displayed his sexy, suave, and charismatic side
to Carter, a young woman he hired to work at his private estate. She is
enamored by his charms and looks up to him, especially after he hires her
father and rescues her family from financial hell. In this chapter however, she
has lied to Vladimir and is about to meet his dark side—the pakhan.
Vladimir dishes out a verbal lashing to Carter that reveals there is more to
his personality than simply the charming businessman she has grown to adore.
Vladimir
is a bad guy in some respects, but he’s not all bad.
Their
relationship is tumultuous, but there are many tender and romantic moments as
well. Vladimir is guarded with his feelings and when he reveals his sensitive
side to Carter, their relationship blossoms into a romance. My favorite sexy
scene is Chapter Forty-Five—An Imaginary Line.
The
scene takes place in Miami, Florida and Vladimir is doing everything in his
power to show Carter how much she means to him. It’s not the expensive hotel
suite, the flowers, or fancy food—it’s the moment when Vladimir reveals his
feelings and shows Carter how much he cares for her. He’s playful, loving and
sexy, but underneath the surface, the pakhan is waiting to make his
entrance. Will Vladimir prevail or will the pakhan? Russian Tattoos
is full of twists and turns until the very last page.

belligerent, and deadly— those infected with a mysterious virus.
If the world couldn’t get any crazier, a
letter ups the insanity...
After being assured day after day that the
world outside their little camp had been compromised, Brooklyn’s cabin-mate,

known upside down. There is a world outside the trees that surrounds their
camp, and the virus they all feared seems non-existent.
Determined to see it herself, Brooklyn plots
with others to attempt an escape...
On the outside, Brooklyn finds the world is as
normal as ever. But when they are
attacked in the city, they dispose of their attackers far more efficiently than
any normal human.. Is there more to Brooklyn and her friends then
just being highly trained?
As their exploration continues, the group is
faced with impossible feats. Betrayal, love, death, and a powerful sense ofcamaraderie lead Brooklyn and her friends to fight for
their life, their freedom, and most of all, each other.

Next Door to a Star
by Krysten
Lindsay Hager
Release Date: September 1st 2015
Limitless Publishing
Summary from Goodreads:
Hadley Daniels is tired of feeling invisible.
After Hadley’s best friend moves away and she gets on the bad side of some girls at school, she goes to spend the summer with her grandparents in the Lake Michigan resort town of Grand Haven. Her next door neighbor is none other than teen TV star Simone Hendrickson, who is everything Hadley longs to be—pretty, popular, and famous—and she’s thrilled when Simone treats her like a friend.
Being popular is a lot harder than it looks.
It’s fun and flattering when Simone includes her in her circle, though Hadley is puzzled about why her new friend refuses to discuss her former Hollywood life. Caught up with Simone, Hadley finds herself ignoring her quiet, steadfast friend, Charlotte.
To make things even more complicated, along comes Nick Jenkins…
He’s sweet, good-looking, and Hadley can be herself around him without all the fake drama. However, the mean girls have other ideas and they fill Nick’s head with lies about Hadley, sending him running back to his ex-girlfriend and leaving Hadley heartbroken.
So when her parents decide to relocate to Grand Haven, Hadley hopes things will change when school starts…only to be disappointed once again.
Cliques.
Back-stabbing.
Love gone bad.
Is this really what it’s like to live…

Next Door To A Star?
Excerpt:
The school year should end right after spring break, because
all anyone can focus on is summer vacation. You can’t learn anything new,
because all you can think about is all the fun stuff you’re going to do once
you don’t have to get up at the butt crack of dawn. Summer always seems full of
possibilities.
Nothing exciting ever happens during the school year, but
maybe, during summer vacation, you could run into a hot celebrity and he’d
decide to put you in his next music video. Okay, it wasn’t like I knew anybody
that happened to, but my grandparents did live next door to a former TV star,
Simone Hendrickson, and Simone was discovered in an ice cream parlor one
summer. Of course, she lived in L.A. at the time and was already doing plays
and commercials, so the guy who discovered her had already seen her perform.
But hey, it was summer, she got discovered, and that was all that mattered.
Amazing stuff didn’t happen to me. You know what
happened to me last summer? I stepped on a bee and had to go to the emergency
room. They’re not going to make an E! True Hollywood Story out of my life. I
didn’t go on exotic vacations—like today, I was being dragged along with my
parents to my cousin’s graduation party. Most people waited until at least the
end of May before having a grad party, but Charisma was having hers early
because she was leaving on a trip to Spain. I was dreading this party because I
didn’t want to listen to everybody talk about how smart and talented Charisma
was—making me feel like a blob in comparison—but my mom RSVP’d even though I
said I’d rather die than go. My death threats meant nothing. But still, for
some strange reason, I had a feeling this summer was going to be different.
Sequel out in March! Competition with the Star.
