I have always been a romantic at heart. I believe that while life is tough, there is always a happy ending just around the corner. I started reading traditional historical romances when I was a teenager, then life and law school got in the way. It wasn’t until I picked up a copy of Bertrice Small and became swept away to Queen Elizabeth’s court that my interest in romance novels became renewed.

But somewhere along the way, my tastes shifted. While I still enjoys a juicy Historical romance, I began experimenting with newer, more cutting edge genres and discovered the world of Male/Male romance. Once I picked up her first, I became so enamored of the authors, the character-driven stories and the overwhelming emotion of the books, I knew I wanted to write my own.

I live in New York City with my husband and two children and hopefully soon a cat of my own. My day begins with a lot of caffeine and ends with a glass or two of red wine. I practice law but daydream of a time when I can sit by a beach somewhere and write beautiful stories of men falling in love. Although there is bound to be angst along the way, a Happily Ever After is always guaranteed.

Author: Sloan Johnson

Release Date: February 4, 2015

You can’t choose who you fall in love with. Despite knowing from a young age that he was gay, Scott Murphy couldn’t imagine life without Shelly. He threw away the labels and had eleven amazing years with her, but now, he feels even more lost trying to figure out how to move on after Shelly’s death. After nearly a year of watching Scott fade away, Shelly’s father forces him to start living again.

As much as Chris loathes the idea of attending a bereavement group week after week, it’s one of the only places he can go in this town, other than the bar, to not feel so alone. When there’s nothing to distract him or dull his senses, he spends too much time obsessing over how he should have been able to help his sister. When Scott shows up at his group session, Chris decides that maybe some good can come out of his sister’s death.

There’s no denying that Chris is the first man to catch Scott’s attention in a long time, but how can he move on when just thinking of Shelly sends him to his dark place?

The road to recovery won’t be an easy one, but Chris is determined to help Scott see that life is still worth living. But before Scott can allow himself to admit what he feels for Chris, he knows he has to reveal the full truth about Shelly’s death.

I promised Ma that I wouldn’t drink my dinner every night, but some days, it’s impossible to keep that promise. I tell myself that it’s different on days like today because I’m not drinking to forget how much I miss Jill, I’m drinking to forget how miserable some people choose to make one another. Today, I just about lost it and told one couple that there’s no point in them even trying to get along. Unfortunately, my partner frowns upon me telling couples that sometimes two people just aren’t meant to be together, as was this case with this pair.

It takes a minute for my eyes to adjust to the dark atmosphere of Brewster’s after walking around for thirty minutes trying to tell myself I didn’t need a drink. I find an empty seat at the end of the bar and signal the bartender for my usual. Okay, so maybe Ma had a point since he simply nods and has a tall whiskey sour sitting in front of me in less than a minute.

I look around, the same way I do every night, wondering if this town will ever start to feel like home. It’s a nice enough place, but there’s a definite divide between those who are from here and those who move here at some point in their lives.

I sit a bit straighter when I see Scott, the quiet, broody guy from group, sitting at one of the high top tables in the center of the room. He looks absolutely miserable. When I catch a glimpse of his date for the evening, Adrian the annoying twink who thinks he’s God’s gift to all gay men in town, the annoyance radiating off Scott is understandable.

I nurse the first drink, rather than down it as quickly as possible. I’ve wanted to talk to Scott the past few weeks, but he’s ducked out as soon as the official meeting ends, even though Jim hangs around for a while. I’ve considered following him when he leaves, to see if I can talk to him, but then I tell myself that he must have his reasons for not wanting to deal with people and I have to respect that.

I feel like a creep, watching Adrian and Scott eating dinner, but I can’t help it. A few times, I’ve thought Scott was checking me out the same way I have been him and this is the first confirmation I have that I might be right. Scott excuses himself from the table and Adrian reaches out for him as he walks away. I laugh when Scott practically jumps back to keep from being part of an awkward and unwelcome embrace.

Once he’s in the restroom, I order another drink before putting a five-dollar bill in the jukebox. I don’t give a shit about the music, but it’s the closest I can get to Scott without following him into the bathroom, which is a level of creepy that I can’t imagine stooping to.

Sloan Johnson is a big city girl trapped in a country girl’s life. While she longs for the hustle and bustle of New York City or Las Vegas, she hasn’t yet figured out how to sit on the deck with her morning coffee, watching the deer and wild turkeys in the fields while surrounded by concrete and glass.

When she was three, her parents received their first call from the principal asking them to pick her up from school. Apparently, if you aren’t enrolled, you can’t attend classes, even in Kindergarten. The next week, she was in preschool and started plotting her first story soon after.

Later in life, her parents needed to do something to help their socially awkward, uncoordinated child come out of her shell and figured there was no better place than a bar on Wednesday nights. It’s a good thing they did because this is where she found her love of reading and writing. Who needs socialization when you can sit alone in your bedroom with a good book?

Now, Sloan is a tattooed mom with a mohawk and two kids. She’s been kicked out of the PTA in two school districts and is no longer asked to help with fundraisers because she’s been known to lose herself with a good book and forget she has somewhere to be.

#ReleaseBlitz ~ Shameless by Brynley Bush ~ @BrynleyBush @SBB_Promotions #BlackBrothersTrilogy #BYNR #Review

Posted on February 19, 2015February 18, 2015 by mamareads2014

Title: Shameless (Black Brothers Trilogy Book 3)

Author: Brynley Bush

Release Day: 02/10/2015

Release Day Blitz: 02/12/2015

Hosted By: SBB Promotions

Sheltered good girl Victoria Raine has always wanted to be a little bad. Tired of living life safely on the sidelines, she summons the courage to forge a new path for herself and applies to the FBI, looking for adventure and something to fulfill her vague longing for something…more. She gets more than she bargained for with her first undercover assignment—posing as the girlfriend of country music’s bad boy, Drake Maddox, a lone wolf with a reputation for having singularly erotic tastes. Hoping to catch a serial killer that’s targeting women close to Drake, Tori’s job is to convince the public, and the killer, that she and the wickedly handsome superstar are an item.

Although their relationship is a sham, there’s nothing fake about the hidden desires the sexy as sin cowboy awakens in Tori. As the killer draws closer, Tori finds herself falling for the one man she can’t have.

**Shameless can be read as a standalone novel**

Each book in the Black Brothers Trilogy focuses on a different brother and his story and can be read independently, although the books interconnect.

I received an ARC copy for an honest review of this book.

Wow! Talk about a HOT book. The battery on my iPad actually died while I was reading this and I screamed a very loud “NOOOOOOO” at the screen. I couldn’t wait until the morning to find out what happened to Tori and Drake. There is some light BDSM in this book, so if that sort of thing is not your cup of tea, don’t bother.

The black in the 5 stars is for the “Black Brothers Trilogy” – get it, Black brothers, black stars…

Brynley Bush has surprised me and made me a fan. Tori is an FBI Agent who is assigned to Drake Maddox, a super hot country singer. Female fans are disappearing from Drake’s concerts and Tori is going to help catch the sick individual. Tori took a chance, ran far from her father’s business and into the door of the FBI. She is new to the agency and needs to prove herself. This case is her chance, except no one believes this petite, home-town girl can do the job. Little do they know. (Insert evil laugh) Before Tori can be the strong, dependable agent, she needs to find herself. All of herself, including her courage. On the verge of being kicked off the case, she goes to Drake, the beautiful, amazingly sexy country singer to ask him to help her find the courage to be reckless, brave and strong. Drake does it with a power exchange. He helps Tori see another side to herself and in turn, helps Drake see a side to himself he didn’t know existed. Only then can Tori focus on being the agent to solve the case and find the sick person who is kidnapping female fans.

I found Drake to be very mysterious, not trusting the character until the end. He is written very well and since the relationship was supposed to be a fake one for the sake of the stalker, at times I didn’t know if Drake was serious or playing the role of the boyfriend, but all is revealed in due time. And it will make you happy. You even get to meet his brothers, each has their own books written for them so if you like this book, check out the first two. I know I am! The family bond is strong and I appreciate stories like that. I love the strong family who has each other’s back.

The sex scenes are amazing and tasteful. Got me squirming in my seat at time too. Drake is a god to Tori, always taking care of her needs. Always, but she needs to trust him! Well, just like a good Dom would I guess.

I found the ending to be predictable, the part where the stalker was revealed. Either that or I am a good guesser, but I felt the climax of the stalker meeting Drake was a little predictable. I was yelling at Tori when she was in the hotel room but she obviously didn’t hear me tell her to turn around and run away. Thank goodness for her phone though.

I give Brynley Bush and “Shameless” 5 stars! Looking forward to reading the other two books in the trilogy.

Fearless (Black Brothers Trilogy Book 1)

Fiercely independent and newly single mom Emmaline Hart has spent the last thirteen years putting everyone’s needs before her own. Secretly afraid that her ex-husband’s assertions that she’s too uptight are right, Emma nonetheless keeps her life, and her emotions, firmly under control, fearful of getting hurt again. However, when she meets the dangerously attractive Beckett Black on a job assignment, the way his casual touch sends her pulse racing forces her to acknowledge her growing need to move beyond her fear. When Beckett offers her a job writing the memoir of his father, a renowned cancer researcher, Emma jumps at the career opportunity and the chance to get to know Beckett better.

Emma spends her days with the renowned doctor, who has spent his career studying a plant in the Amazon that has the potential to cure cancer, and her nights with Beckett, who slowly pushes past her fears and breaks down her barriers, introducing her to a passionate and forbidden love that surpasses her wildest fantasies. As the doctor’s story of secrets and cover-ups unravels, so does Emmaline’s view on everything she thought she knew about herself and the power of surrender.

Matchless (Black Brothers Trilogy Book 2)

When her boss asks for her help on a high profile intellectual property case, the last person attorney Mila Kingston expects to walk into her office is the gorgeous stranger she had an unforgettable one night stand with on her birthday. Navy SEAL Griffin Black has been upfront since the beginning that he’s not looking for love or commitment, which is just fine with Mila, who’s focused on her career and certainly doesn’t have time for a charming playboy. However she can’t pass up the opportunity to represent Griffin and his brother in a landmark trade secret case involving a plant from the Amazon with the potential to cure cancer and the greedy woman who will stop at nothing to possess the rights to the research.

Although Mila’s determined to keep him at arm’s length, the more time she spends with Griffin, the harder it is to resist his easy going charm and his promises of forbidden pleasures. Before long, Mila is entangled with Griffin in a battle for the rights to medical research that could change the world of medicine, as well as her heart.

**Matchless can be read as a standalone novel**

Each book in the Black Brothers Trilogy focuses on a different brother and his story and can be read independently, although the books interconnect.

Brynley Bush writes the kind of books she likes to read: steamy contemporary romance featuring smart, sassy heroines with a sense of humor and the strong, dominant alpha males who love their women a little feisty.

Brynley loves rainy days, books (and more books!), worn-in jeans, hot coffee, traveling to new places, and happily ever afters. She lives in Texas with her husband, three children, and an assortment of pets.When she’s not writing, she loves to read, spend time with her family, and travel.

Amazon Amazon CA Amazon UK Amazon AU EllorasCave

Excerpt from The Biker’s Librarian © Shyla Colt

Juliette wrapped
arms around Shooters waist and held on tight. There was an electricity in the
air tonight they spoke volumes. The time for courting had come and gone. He
couldn’t keep his hands off her tonight. Every caress of her hand, side, and
knee had ramped up the sexual tension simmering between them. He’d
ambushed her after work, and taken her to dinner. There was no mystery why he’d
taken her to his apartment for the first time. The wind tousled her hair,
chilled her barely covered skin and forced her as close to Shooter as she could
get.

The man must be a
hypnotist. One look into his eyes and she’d been a goner. The heat between
them was undeniable. But it was the sweetness hidden beneath those layers of
gruff bluntness that had her falling for him. He’d been hurt before, badly. She
recognized the pain because she housed it too—like attracted like.

They came to a stop outside an apartment complex on the
south side of town.

“It’s not much, but it’s clean and safe.” He shrugged. “I
spend most of my time at the club.”

Swinging his leg off with grace likened to a dancer, he
stood. Holding his hand out, he helped her stand on her heels

“Doing okay?” He peered at her from beneath ridiculously
long lashes.

“Y-yeah. I wasn’t dressed for riding tonight.”

“No.” His heated gaze raked over her painstakingly slowly. Still
not used to being the center of his piercing gaze she fidgeted.

“Are you embarrassed?”

“No.”
She looked away as her cheeks heated.

“You are.” His teeth were a slash of white in the darkness.
“I’m going to devour you whole, Juliette.”

Please do.

He chuckled. “You finally loosening up on me?”.

“Oh my God, I said that out loud.” She’d never wanted to
make a cartoon exit so bad in her life. A black hole opening and engulfing her
would be welcomed.

“You did and I like it. Don’t hide yourself from me.” He
cupped her chin. “Ever. I live unencumbered by rules. When you’re with me I
expect you to do the same. You know that by now.”

Completely under his spill she nodded her head.

“Fuck, what are you doing to me, Juliette?” He pulled her
hips flush against his. The thick bulge in his pants pressed into her, dropping
her belly down into her shoes the way a deep hill would. “Now all I can picture
is you in a pencil skirt with a strand of pearls between your breasts. Those
long legs spread wide on the checkout counter while I take you hard and fast.”
The heated words he whispered tickled her ear and tangled up her insides. She
squirmed against him, moaning at the friction it caused.

“That’s it, baby. Feel what you do to me.” His silken voice
and the whirlwind events of their courtship seduced her, and robbed her of her
modesty. . Shameless, she ground her hips into him, whimpering as tendrils of
pleasure unfurled in her pussy. Wetness formed between her legs, soaking her
panties and the tops of her thighs.

“That’s it. Do you like the way my cock feels?”

“Yes.”

“It’s only going to get better from here.” He gripped her
hips, lifting her up, and she wound her legs around his waist out of instinct.
Stunned by her actions, she studied him with hazy vision.

“We need to get inside before I take you on my bike.”

“You can do that?” She whispered. Visions of their limps
entwined while she rode him made her moan.

“We will do that,
Juliette. You and I are going to do a lot of things together.”

She liked the way her
name sounded on his lips. Wild and untamed, the exact opposite of the woman
she’d been for the past twenty-five years. He made her feel adventurous and
sexy, like a brand new woman with no tainted past. His long strides devoured
the pavement as he began the walk to his apartment.

The controlled precision made her kitten purr louder. They
reached the top floor and he placed her back against the door as he fumbled for
his keys. His lips tempted her and for once in her life, she took the
initiative.

His slack-jawed, wide-eyed expression that followed would
have amused her if she hadn’t been so desperate. She traced his lips with her
tongue, seeking entrance as his flavor flooded her mouth. Whiskey, tartness and
Shooter. The trinity of tastes inflamed her and she dropped her legs lower,
lining up with his pelvis once more. They’d built up to this moment and now she
couldn’t wait another second. The prominent bulge she felted hinted at
something long and thick. She shuddered in anticipation.

“Fuck.” He hissed, bracing his arms on either side of her as
their tongues dueled. Bringing her hands up to tangle in his soft locks, she
tilted her head for more contact. A moan rumbled in his chest, and he obliged.
Her breasts grew heavy as he took over, dominating her mouth with a masterful
skill that made her lightheaded. “Need, now.”

His animalistic words filled her with pride. She’d brought a
powerful man to his baser self. Seeing the give in his dominating personality
turned her on.

The key shimmied, the tumbler turned and he staggered
inside. He kicked the door shut and kept going. Her back met the soft surface
of his couch.

“Have to taste.”

“No.” She clamped her thighs shut, embarrassed.

“Yes.” His dark eyes and commanding pitch left no room for
argument. “Open your legs and hold onto the couch, Juliette.”

Shyla Colt grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, but has lived a variety of different places thanks to her wanderlust, interesting careers, and marriage to a United States Marine. She’s always loved books and wrote her very first novel at the age of fifteen. She keeps a copy of her first submission letter on her desk for inspiration.

After a lifetime of traveling, she settled down and knew her time had come to write. Diving into her new career like she does everything else, with enthusiasm, research and a lot of prayers, she had her first book published in June of 2011. As a full-time writer, stay at home mother, and wife, there’s never a dull moment in her household.

She weaves her tales in spare moments and the evenings with a cup of coffee or tea at her side and the characters in her head for company. A self-professed rebel with a pen. Her goal is to diversify romance as she continues to genre hop, and offer up strong female characters.

After a few minutes, he says, “I know there’s more to you, Elizabeth. I can tell there’s someone hidden inside you dying to come out. I can see it in the fake smile you show everyone, including Cal, the way you frown when you’re alone in your thoughts, and the sadness that’s lurking in your eyes. Why are you hiding?”

God help me, but there’s something in the way he speaks to me that makes me want to lay all my secrets and sins bare. He’s soft and gentle, but most importantly, I believe he wants to know more about me. He’s not asking to gain leverage or use it to his advantage, he’s genuinely concerned. And it makes me want to tell him everything. But the rational side of my brain tells me not to, so I reel in this strange impulse to divulge my secrets to a man I hardly know.

Rachael Duncan is an Army wife living in North Carolina with her husband and two kids. She grew up in Nashville, Tennessee and went on to graduate from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville with a bachelor’s degree in political science. After working on Capitol Hill for a short time, she realized that a career in politics just wasn’t for her. A couple years later, she rediscovered her love for reading and writing. She’s the author of Tackled by Love as well.

Name 2 of your all time favorite authors?

Just two?! There are so many talented authors out there that I love, but the first two that popped in my head are Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher. I don’t even read the synopsis when I see they’ve published a book, I just one-click it. Their writing and storytelling are amazing, but in completely different ways. They inspire me in so many ways as a writer, and I’m in awe of them as a reader.

If you could take a character from any book and make them a real person who and what book would you pick and why?

It’s an oldie, but a goodie…Travis “Maddog” Maddox. Do I really have to explain why? He was my very first book boyfriend.

IF you were stranded on an island and you could take only 1 book with you which would you take and why?

A survival book because I have absolutely no outdoor/survival skills. I’d need all the help I could get.

If you could murder and get away with it any character from any book who would you pick and why?

Nan from Abbi Glines’ Rosemary Beach series. God, I hate that woman. She’s a terrible, selfish person who’s always causing trouble. She needs to be killed off.

Favorite TV Show?

“Nice ride.”

Lex’s head snapped toward the sexy, feminine voice. A woman
in a red skydiving suit walked toward him, her eyes on his bike.

He tried not to cringe. She was everything he hated about
Hollywood. Her makeup was over the top, like she was trying to cover up all her
imperfections. And it was impossible to tell her hair color because of the
atrocious multicolored wig.

As though she felt his disapproval, she shoved her hands in
the pockets of her jumpsuit. The action drew his attention to her generous
hips.

“Thank you,” he said politely and hoped the woman would go
away.

She stepped closer. “I like the modifications.”

Lex gave her a second glance, trying to see beyond the heavy
makeup. He noted her button nose, lush lips, and the gentle curve of her
cheekbone. “Modifications?”

“The handlebar, the chrome finish, and the hand-adjustable
rear suspension weren’t in the original Road King. The adjustable seats and the
fenders are also new.”

A woman who knew bikes. Now he was intrigued. He noted more
things about her. She wasn’t busty, but her posture said she was proud of
whatever she had under the suit. He was a curves man. Not something to brag
about, but curves and gentleness were two things he appreciated and enjoyed in
the opposite sex.

He couldn’t tell anything about her. Not her hair or the
color of her eyes hidden by the long fake lashes and hooded eyelids as she
studied his ride. Not that it mattered now. She could be wearing a sack over
her head and he’d find her interest in his bike fascinating.

“It can hit eighty in fifth gear and still run smoothly,”
Lex said. “You obviously know your bikes.”

“I’ve ridden some, modified a few. Road Kings are powerful
and beautiful, but I prefer smaller bikes. I own an XD after years of being an
F4i fan, but—”

F4i were made by Honda and were favored stunt bikes. Eddie
planned to replace them with Leeds bikes. “But?”

Her head lifted, and their eyes met. She flashed a smile.
“The XD could do with a little tweaking here and there. How does RK handle on
the highway?”

He’d pushed the RK to one-forty with ease, but he was still
reeling from the effect of her smile and couldn’t respond. It transformed her
face, garish makeup and all. She had gorgeous turquoise eyes, darker on the
edges and lighter toward the center. Then what she’d said registered.

More tweaking? Eddie and his team of engineers had worked
their asses off to get the engine and proportions right. He reigned in his
annoyance and forced himself to focus on her question. What was it? The RK on
the road.

“Handle her with care, and she’ll give you the best ride of
your life.”

“Sounds like something I’d like to try,” she purred,
grinning while giving him a slow perusal that said she was flirting with him.
“I love rides. All kinds of rides,” she added softly, voice all husky, eyes
meeting his under the canopy of her fake lashes.

And damn if she didn’t get a rise out of him. She wasn’t
even his type. “Maybe I’ll let you, if you ask nicely,” slipped out of his
mouth before he realized it.

“I don’t do nice, but I could make an exception”—she
laughed, her eyes twinkling—“for the Road King.” She turned and threw over her
shoulder, “Nice chatting with you. Take care of that baby. It’s truly a king
among bikes.”

Lex didn’t say anything. He was still trying to find his
balance. Who knew a woman’s laugh could have such an effect on him. When she’d
paused at, he’d expected
her to say him. He’d never been jealous of a bike until today.

His eyes followed her, loving the sway of her hips, which
was surely for his benefit. She confirmed it when she glanced over her
shoulder, winked, and laughed.

That rise she’d gotten out of him was now a throbbing
hard-on. Lex shook his head to clear it and focused on controlling his body. He
didn’t know what had just happened, but he was finally looking forward to being
at the Perris Valley Skydiving School today and
the party this weekend. He had to know the identity of that woman.

coming MARCH 3rd

CHASING ME by Jennifer Probst

BOOK SUMMARY:

Quinn and James’ Story Continues in Chasing Me…
It was supposed to be a love story….

I knew she was out of my league but I didn’t care. Looking back, I wonder if I hadn’t pursued her, would things have turned out differently? Is it Fate that determines our choices in life? God? Free will? Or just plain old innate selfishness?
I got her, of course. There hadn’t been a girl I wasn’t able to seduce. Problem was she seduced me right back, body, mind, and soul. She possessed me, tormented me, and showed me a world that was so bright and pure I was almost blinded.
Didn’t she know after such a drug I could never settle for less? Didn’t she realize no matter how many times I screwed up, or broke her heart, or bent her to my will, I’d never be able to let her go?
If I hadn’t known such intensity existed, would it have been better for both of us?
True love, the real kind, isn’t nice and sweet and pure. No, it’s dirty, and sinful, and messy. It’s like ripping a chunk of flesh from your body and watching yourself bleed out in slow, helpless intervals until you thankfully pass out.

This isn’t a love story. But it’s the only story I got.

LOSING US by Jen McLaughlin

BOOK SUMMARY:

When it all comes crashing down…

Everything I thought I had with Austin Murphy—safety, stability, the normalcy I crave but my celebrity lifestyle rarely allows—was ripped away in one night. I wanted to surprise him, but the joke was on me. Now I don’t know if I ever really knew him at all.

Someone has to pick up the pieces…

Mackenzie Forbes was everything I ever wanted and the one person I didn’t deserve. When a past mistake costs me the girl I love, I’ll do everything I can to get her back. We both have demanding careers and family secrets darkening our pasts, but I need Mackenzie in my future.

Sometimes everything you have to give just isn’t enough…

FINDING YOU by Jenna Bennett

BOOK SUMMARY:

Sex on the Beach, the do-over.
I had a simple plan for what to do in Key West the second time around.

Testify at the trial of the rapist I helped catch last year.
Make sure he gets locked away for the rest of his natural life, so he can never, ever hurt another girl.
Wait for my BFFs to get to town, so we can celebrate.
And stay far away from Ty Connor, because three months after breaking up with him, I still don’t know whether being with him is worse than being without him.

Spring Break, take two.
All of the above? Out the window.
Turns out testifying is a lot harder than I thought it would be.
Not only is the rapist I helped catch last year not locked away for the rest of his life, he’s on the loose and looking for me.
Oh yeah, and it’s definitely harder being without Ty than being with him, especially when I have to watch him with someone else.
Welcome to my world.
