Excerpt
“So, are you . . . interested in anyone now?” Evan leaned forward, his voice low and husky.

“Actually, yes I am.” Oh God, I was really doing this! “He’s a friend of mine, so it’s a little weird . . . but he’s sweet and sexy . . . and it annoys me that I never noticed how amazing he was. I think he might be interested, too—but like I said, my instincts are shit so who knows.” I shrugged and took a sip of my coffee, pretending to focus my attention on my computer screen.

I had never been so forward with a man in my entire life. How could I play this off that I was talking about someone else if I read him wrong? 

“Maybe not.” Evan scooted his chair closer to the table and slammed my laptop shut. I had nowhere to look but into his hay-colored eyes that, at the moment, seemed to burn right through me.

“Maybe he’s noticed you for years, but never thought he had a shot. Maybe he’s sick of watching you waste your time with guys who don’t deserve you. Maybe if you ask, you’ll find out he’s very, very interested.” The intense expression on Evan’s face as he fixed his gaze on me made my pulse race.

“Maybe he figured out who I was talking about?” I crinkled my nose and gave Evan a playful grin.

He lowered his eyes and chuckled. “I need to work this weekend; the diner job starts on Saturday morning, but I’m free Thursday night. There is an awesome restaurant I know in Brooklyn if you wouldn’t mind making the drive with me.”

“I would love that. But, if you’re busy, it can wait. I know you guys are trying to get as much work as you can. We can always go out when things aren’t so crazy—”

“If things go the way I hope they will, business will always be busy and crazy.” Evan rose from his seat and threw away his empty cup. He sauntered over to where I sat and leaned over, one hand on my chair and one on the table—completely closing me in.

He pressed a soft kiss right below my ear and whispered, “I’ve waited for this date since I was fifteen years old, and I’m not waiting anymore.” I stiffened as his wet and warm lips lingered on my skin. My breath hitched, and I was sure Evan noticed as he stood with a sweet and satisfied smile.

“See you Thursday, Daisy.” I watched him stroll out the door, too tongue-tied to say anything in reply. Sweet, butter-doesn’t-melt-in-his-mouth Evan was hot as hell, and had a little alpha streak.

I had a lot to learn about nice boys, and couldn’t wait for Evan to teach me.

RELEASE DAY BLITZ ~ Love to Hate You by Isabelle Richards

Love to Hate You_Finalhigh

Love to Hate You is LIVE! 




Synopsis
Some connections are so powerful they will not be denied. Despite doing everything in their power to fight their feelings, Chase and Arianna decide to give their love a second chance. They hope that the long, painful journey back to each other will have taught them not to make the same mistakes again. This time they’ll get it right. All they need is a little time for the wounds to heal.
Unfortunately, life doesn’t stop just because love is in the air. Just as they begin to reconcile, their relationship is bombarded by crisis after crisis throwing their lives into a tailspin. Had they learned from their past, Chase and Arianna would find a way to lean on each other during trying times. But some people never learn.
Instead of revealing their strength, each challenge exposes their vulnerabilities. The cracks in their relationship turn into chasms as they let each other down time and time again. Hurt and betrayal overshadow the love, and they slip back into old habits. Hiding behind hatred for each other is much easier than facing the truth.
Will they find their way back to each other or will they stay trapped in the space between love and hate?

Holy Moly Batman! The anticipation for this book was killing me I jumped right in and didn’t come up for air until about 2AM! Yes you read that right 2AM in the morning! Once I started I couldn’t put it down. Since Hate to Love you, the first book, left me wondering where this will book would take me I was ready to get in! I Hated to Love this book. In the absolute way possible!

Chase and Ari’s relationship and story is amazing. The dynamic of the story is unbelievable. The uncertainty I felt when started slowly fading away. I felt like everything was right at the moment then….BAM! I was hit with so much emotion I was crying ugly tears! I was broken but as good as Isabelle is it took me awhile to get over that event. She sucked me back in and I was happy again! I had no idea where the story was going to go because it was sooooo good at the moment. I love Ari and Chase. On a side note I have to mention Charlie and Spencer, I love these two, they are the best like seriously if they were real we would be together all the freaking time! Charlie is hoot and I love the relationship she has with Chase and especially the one she has with Ari. Spencer when he gets involved is hilarious. Always giving Chase crap because he got it from him for YEARS!

Time to really grab the tissues. Big fat ugly tears! I just knew something was going to come out of this and it wasn’t going to be good at all. What is life? What is life? Gosh I don’t even know how to exactly explaining what I am feeling half way through the book. The rollercoaster is far from over and I am ready for this to go down! I was on the edge of my seat from this moment on. I don’t know how many times I wanted to throw my kindle at the wall and then there were times I just wanted to hug it so I could hug Ari personally! Isabelle you really do this to me EVERY. SINGLE. TIME!!

Towards to end of the book I was so freaking happy my cheeks hurt from reading it! Especially the running photography part! I can’t believe that was actually in there! Facing fears and breaking down walls is exactly what Chase and Ari did thru the whole book. Overcoming what is thrown at you and the downfalls and the struggle to get back to where you want to be. Gosh I have so many things I could say and it wouldn’t be enough for this book!

Chase and Ari story is a journey that I will go through over and over again as I re-read this book. The emotions that I felt going through this book is happy, throw my kindle at the wall, crying ugly tears (which is so worth it), and I never expected it do be this big of a rollercoaster. I am still in book hangover mode. I felt like I was there through it all and I think that’s how you should always feel reading. Isabelle girl you really have done it again and I cannot wait for more to come from you. You did it girl!!!!

Now go grab this amazing book! Go! Go! Go!

COVER REVEAL - The Fall Up by Aly Martinez

Maybe there’s only one direction to go when two people fall
in love at rock bottom—up.


The Fall Up
Aly Martinez
RELEASE DATE - October 26, 2015


BLURB
I wanted to jump.
He made me fall.

As a celebrity, I lived in the public eye, but somewhere along the way, I’d lost myself in the spotlight. 

Until he found me.

Sam Rivers was a gorgeous, tattooed stranger who saved my life with nothing more than a simple conversation.

But we were both standing on that bridge for a reason the night we met. The secrets of our pasts brought us together—and then tore us apart.

Could we find a reason to hold on as life constantly pulled us down?

Or maybe there’s only one direction to go when two people fall in love at rock bottom—up.
