Sweet Trouble by Sasha Gold

Sweet Trouble

Nick

Bad blood. That’s what’s between me and the Voss family. I vowed to come after the Voss men when I got out of prison. By then they were all dead or gone. Imagine my surprise when a Voss I didn’t know about comes to town. Bailey Voss is gorgeous, sexy and way too young for me. I tell myself I’m going to stay clear but then on a stormy night I see her. At a bar. Getting hit on. When she tries to leave and can’t get her car to start I make one, simple offer.

Bailey

Bad vibe. Mr. McKinley’s got a grudge against me. Why? I have no idea. But he scares me. When I run into him at the dance hall, I want to keep my distance, but I can’t. The man practically forces me onto the dance floor… but his touch makes me feel something I’ve never felt before. The attraction is potent, raw and carnal. I might be innocent, but I’ve never wanted a man like I want the man everyone calls Nicholas “Mount” McKinley.

Colleen Charles Bio

Two truths, one lie is one of my favorite games. It's so much fun! No really ... let's play. I'll go first:

1) I once sang the national anthem for college basketball.

2) I've been hit on by Bill Cosby.

3) My horse won an Arabian National Championship.

I answer all e-mails personally so contact me at the address below and we'll see if you're right ;). Then, you can test my skills.

In the meantime, I'll be writing stories with sassy, curvy heroines and swoon worthy bad-boy book boyfriends who have an a**hole edge and hearts of gold. I might sprinkle in some romantic comedy along the way. By my side will be my fur posse and a Starbucks.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, enjoying and recommending the steamy romance stories stories that I write. When you share my work with others, it's so rewarding. Your word of mouth is my very best friend ... that, and your reviews. There is nothing more important to me than all of you.

Home Run Baby (A Sports Romance) by Tabatha Kiss

Home Run Baby

Love. Marriage. Babies.*
*Not necessarily in that order.

I got hit in the head with a baseball. A damn home run. I didn’t even see it coming.

The next thing I know, I’m in the hospital with a headache but that’s not all…
There’s an idiot doctor standing in front of me telling me I’m pregnant.

Who’s the father, you ask? The damn baseball player that hit the ball.
Hunter Novak. Home Run Hunter himself — but that’s not the name he gave me when he took me home with him from that bar six weeks ago.

Call it coincidence. Call it fate.
I call it a pain in my ass.

For the first time in my life, I’m responsible for someone other than myself. This baby deserves to grow up with a real family. It can’t get that from me and my one-night stand. Or can it?

I barely know Hunter. We skipped to the end before but now we have to start from the beginning.
How is that even possible now that a tiny heartbeat is involved?

Home Run Baby is a sweet and steamy stand-alone romance. For a super limited time, your Kindle edition of Home Run Baby includes the other Bad Baller Books as bonus reads!

Meet Niki Hebert McQuilling, author of Prison Blade and Sadistic

What was the inspiration behind this story?

My readers were my inspiration to writing Sadistic. Most of them tell me, after they read Prison Blade, they want 'more' so I decided to give them a little bit more until I complete the second book.

What is one of your favorite scenes?

My favorite scene in Sadistic is when Susan and James sleep together. Although under the odd circumstances they were put together, it was the only time she's ever felt peace, love and pleasure.

How does it relate to your previous work, Prison Blade?

This is a short story of Erik Benton's parents.

Will we see these characters again?

Maybe by name only but you probably won't see these characters again.

On what are you working right now?

I'm currently working on the sequel to Prison Blade plus two other novels.

How has your work in law enforcement shaped you as a writer?

Being in Law Enforcement has shown me both sides of domestic violence (the victim's and the abuser's). I've seen things that no one wants to see. There's a lot I haven't seen which I'm thankful for. I believe that survivors of a violent crimes are strong people. The strongest in my eyes. I wanted to give them a voice even if my stories are fiction.

What are some of your other writing influences?

Henry Cavill. He is my hot male character in every story.

What is your writing routine like?

I write any chance I get.

You deal with some intense topics in your books. How do you manage them?

When I first began writing the intense scenes in Prison Blade, I had panic attacks. I realized I had to treat it like I was at work. I had to lock up my own feelings. By doing that, writing Sadistic wasn't as hard to do.

What are you reading right now? What's next on your list?

I just finished reading THE DEVIL'S WIFE by Gemma James. Now, I've started RULE'S SEDUCTION by Lynda Chance.

What is one of your greatest accomplishments?

My greatest accomplishment is the completion and release of Prison Blade.

What is something still on your bucket list?

A tattoo. I don't have any, I really want one.

How has your family influenced your writing?

My family is amazing. They push me to keep writing when I feel like I've hit a wall.

What is something readers may be surprised to learn about you?

I've been told that when I wear my glasses, I look a lot like Penelope Garcia from the show Criminal Minds. Some of my coworkers call me Garcia.

Is there anything else you would like to add?

Thank you to everyone who has read both Prison Blade and Sadistic. It means the world to me and I promise to give you more.

Thank you for your time!
