'Griff Montgomery, Quarterback (First & Ten Series)' by Jean C. Joachim

Blurb:

Two people, two tragedies, two deep, devastating secrets…. Griff Montgomery is the headline-making, heart-breaking star quarterback of the Kings – a 6’4”, 33 year old womanizer. Lauren Farraday is a beautiful young interior designer, bitterly scarred by divorce, whose life is falling apart. Though they violently oppose one another in court over her beloved pug (she thinks he’s arrogant and conceited, and he thinks she’s a bitch on wheels), something happens....

These are the bare bones of this sizzling romance, riddled with passion -- the first in a brand new series that’ll tantalize football fans and have readers glued to every page and on the edge of their seats!

Griff looks like a super hero with his tousled, mahogany hair, dazzling smile, dark, sexy eyes, and a body that does something indescribable to a tight pair of jeans. Though Lauren’s sworn off men forever, one look sends shivers down her spine, making her feel lonelier than ever before. Her lustrous, long hair, sparkling green eyes, and nonstop curves make his fingers tingle at the thought of touching her. How do they deal with their cataclysmic attraction? Will they be able to drop their protective facades – his to camouflage his grief over his sister and her family, for whom he was a surrogate father, moving 3000 miles away…. And hers’ to shield her from the incalculable loss of her husband and hoped for child?

For Griff, the thought of falling in love is as foreign as toe shoes and a tutu. For Lauren, it’s like putting on cleats and a helmet and running 50 yards…. Can they, will they, risk it?

Read an excerpt:

“Even better.” Carla licked her lips. “I’ll bet she has no idea you’re having sexual fantasies about her.” 

“I’m not. It was an accident,” he hissed. 

“Sure, sure. Keep telling yourself that. Wonder what she’d think if she knew?” 

“Don’t, Carla. Please don’t. I’m begging you.” Griff reached for her arm, but she shook him off. 

Buddy faced the quarterback. “What the hell did you do?” 

“You don’t wanna know.” 

“Oh no. You didn’t?” His eyebrows rose. 

Griff nodded. “Guilty.” 

“Whoa, stand back, Tony. There’s gonna be some fireworks in a minute.” Buddy pushed Hastings to the wall. 

“You wouldn’t be lying, now, would ya?” Carla asked, directing her stare at Buddy. 

“See for yourself.” He gestured to the brunette at the corner table. 

“Lauren!” Carla cupped her hands and yelled. 

Lauren stood up, turning to face them. 

“You Lauren?”

“Please, please, Carla. I’m sorry, so sorry,” Griff whispered. “Don’t do this.”

About the author:

Taryn discovered her love for books at an early age, spending many hours lost in someone else's story.

It wasn't until well into adulthood that she discovered, late at night while the house was quiet, that she had just as many stories inside her just waiting to be let out. Writing has been a way for her to step away from reality and live a bit through her fun and sometimes damaged characters. You will almost always find a Happy Ever After at the end of her stories. She can't help it, it's an addiction.

She lives in a small city in the Mid-Atlantic with her husband of eighteen years and two incredible daughters who inspire her daily. She is proud to be an advocate for her child with autism, and feels incredibly blessed to be able to see the world through her eyes. Both of her daughters teach her more than she could ever teach them.

She enjoys reading, writing and spending time with her family, but cherishes those quiet nights after everyone is asleep when she can curl up on the couch with her geriatric dog. (Shh, don't tell...He's not supposed to be on the couch.)

Keep an eye out for more from her!

'Life & Literature (Based on a true Ukranian-American Love Story)' by Gala T. Grey & C.S. Alice

Blurb:

“FINALLY A REAL ROMANCE!”

LIFE & LITERATURE is written as literary romance. Authors Gala T. Grey & C. S. Alice interact with fine literature and write in an epistolary format, with their letters tracing the protagonist's (Olga's) path to self-discovery. The story is based on a true Ukrainian-American love story; it's cross-cultural and progresses as Olga becomes the woman life intended. She overcomes her insecurities to enjoy a complete and fulfilling male-female relationship, characterised by her willingness to share, feel vulnerable, and trust David to protect her. Lovemaking in the broadest definition of "expressing love" becomes selfless, with Olga's expression of her passions as most important. In some ways this story in the continuing “Life in Literature” series is a manifesto for women and how they should be loved.

Read the introduction:

“Last night was wonderful and I struggled to comprehend what happened as we made love for hours, fell asleep in each other's arms, and awoke to make love again. You were beautiful in your black tights and dress with open sleeves, as well as wonderful and passionate as we made love. We loved each other slowly to enjoy each kiss and caress; I encouraged you to enjoy even more freedom in our love making; and you openly told me what you wanted; you guided me and we would have loved each other through the night and awoken side-by-side in the morning, under different circumstances. This will happen very soon, if you are willing.” 

“We were comical at times as we grappled with the limitations of the backseat, but we laughed about our awkwardness and discovered new ways to enjoy each other; and we shared intimate conversations as we made love. I cannot contain my admiration for you; you are incredibly beautiful and I cannot resist you. You are my soul mate, the gentle woman who quiets my soul and allows me to give and receive love. You wanted me to express my love for you and I did; "I love only you and cannot imagine ever feeling this way again. I would love you forever and you would feel loved every day; you would never doubt my devotion; I would enable you to be the delicate and vulnerable woman life intended; I would protect you from the harshness of life, as I already do; and I would help you become Lily Bollinger great, as you enjoyed exceptional experiences and invested in yourself. Your passions have become mine and you would never relinquish your place as the focus of my life. Nothing and no one could be more important." We shared words of love last night and this excited me as much as the physical intimacy; you spoke of your acceptance of us; and something impossible happened within me.” 

C. S. Alice

Now read about The First Kiss:

Dearest Olga, 

It feels like I can remember every second of our time together with vivid detail and there was a moment in the car that just knocked me out. 

You were nervous and began to overthink rather than feel. I cupped your face in my hands, came close, looked into your eyes, and said, "We're not going to do that." You looked beautiful with your hair already mussed, framing your face, your chin tucked in, and your eyes carrying the expression of an innocent and uncertain girl. It was as if you were twenty years younger and first exploring your sexuality. You captured my heart in that moment. I held you tight to my chest, repeated the phrase, "You're alright; just relax," and could feel your skin quickly warm and turn moist. You raised your mouth to mine and we shared many, many unrestrained and exploring kisses in the kind of embrace that can only happen when intense passion takes over and two people disappear into one. The air rushes from my chest and I still feel weak just recalling that moment. You say I'm the poet; I'm just relating an experience we created together and it was beautiful. 

You were absolutely bouncy when we took a brief walk. You stood at the harbour’s edge and announced in a celebratory tone, “I want a picnic with champagne.” We'll soon make this happen. 

With love,

David

About author C.S. Alice:

CS Alice enjoyed a productive career publishing in science for more than twenty years, with forays into the application of neuroscience in life; and in 2013 ventured into writing literary fiction in collaboration with Gala T. Grey. LIFE AND LITERATURE marks the inaugural publication for Grey and Alice in the promising series, "a Life in Literature," written in an epistolary format (exchange of love letters) between Olga and David: an elegant Ukrainian woman and thoughtful American. The immediacy of desires and insecurities expressed in near-daily letters, as well as the desire to author a life worthy of fine literature, notably distinguish the stories of Grey and Alice. Readers will feel the realism and aesthetic beauty of a cross-cultural, male-female friendship told through the eyes and hearts of this modern-day Barrett and Browning.

'A Promise Kept' by K.S. David

Blurb:

Quinn McGuire only wanted to lay her mother to rest. She planned hustle out of Hayden County, Kentucky once it was all done and never look back. The town held nothing but bad memories for her. She’ll never forget the echoes of children’s taunts calling her poor trash and whispers about her daddy's crimes. With the exception of her best friend, Jack Lassiter, there was no one in Hayden she cared about - and she’d even been hiding from him for the last two years. But in less than 24-hours after her arrival, Quinn’s brother gets arrested for murder, derailing her plans for a quick exit. Quinn has to find a way to clear his name, but dark shadows from her past threaten her efforts - and her sanity. And as she moves closer to the truth she becomes a target of the real killer.

Read an excerpt:

Jack was an intentional man who rarely did anything that didn’t serve a purpose. When he trained his shrewd green eyes upward, I realized it had been his aim to touch me. My reaction to his hug earlier hadn’t gone unnoticed.

Taking the swing next to him, I pushed off gently and moved back and forth.

“How long are you going to be home this time?” he asked. There was no reservation in his voice - no indication there had been a break or shift in our friendship. His easy way belied the fact that we hadn’t spoken in over two years. 

Shrugging, I said, “Dunno, a couple of weeks I guess. I figure it will take that long to settle Ava’s affairs - sell the house and do something with the salon.” 

The answer seemed to satisfy him, and an awkward silence settled between us as an afternoon breeze whistled and tossed dry leaves across the yard. We shared the same birth date, but at thirty-eight, there was wisdom in Jack’s face that made him seem wiser than his years.

I sighed and looked at the sky before speaking. “I’m sorry for not staying in touch.” 

He took a sip of coffee and nodded toward me. “And.” 

“And…” I hesitated, “you are… my best friend, and you deserve more than that.”

He rolled his eyes. “And... you are going to tell me why you disappeared without a word for two years.” 

Taking a deep breath, I shook my head slowly before looking at him. “No,” I said quietly. “Not yet. I will tell you one day but not right now.”
