    Lies and Solace by Jana Richards

    She can’t live with one more lie. He can’t tell the truth.
    Harper Lindquist is convinced she’s found the answer to her financial prayers. Unless she pours cash into crumbling Solace Lake Lodge, she’ll lose her family’s legacy. Her would-be savior arrives in the middle of a Minnesota blizzard and she’s determined to prove to her reluctant, and trapped, financier the lodge is a sound investment. But Harper isn’t completely honest with him. And she has no idea the lake is hiding secrets of its own.
    Ethan James is a liar, but his money is very real. He isn’t convinced a broken-down inn is a smart investment opportunity. But the more he understands Harper’s dreams and desires, the more he wants to be the man to make them come true. The trauma in both their pasts means neither can fully trust the other. They must find the courage to love, to trust, and to accept, or yesterday’s sorrows will keep them apart.

    Very human Tau Cetus police agent Jai Turner goes undercover as a Beautiful Dolls sex robot in order to bring down the planet’s most notorious arms dealer, Marque Callex. The police have never been able to get close to Callex, and Jai’s assignment is to coax information out of Marque on his illicit dealings – information that will lead to his conviction.
    Reclusive arms dealer Marque Callex only accepted an invitation from Beautiful Dolls because with his deadly line of work – and the dangerous secrets he’s keeping – he can’t afford to let a real woman into his life.
    But neither Jai nor Marque are what they seem, and their week together has consequences neither expect.

    Is It True: Marriage, Mobsters, and the Marine by Kryssie Fortune @KryssieFortune #RLFblog #Contempory #romance

    Is It True: Marriage, Mobsters, and the Marine by Kryssie Fortune @KryssieFortune #RLFblog #Contempory #romanceWelcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Let’s play Is It True with today’s guest, Kryssie Fortune, author of Marriage, Mobsters, and the Marine, a contemporary, erotic romance. This is a game with yes and no questions. Writers can elaborate on answers as much as they choose.

    Marriage, Mobsters and the Marine) by Kryssie Fortune

    Genre Contemporary, erotic romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    Abigail Montgomery, a small-town schoolteacher with zero self-confidence, longs for the loving family she never had.
    Each month she attends a masked BDSM club, but her next visit will be her last. If she doesn’t marry within the next year, her military brother won’t inherit Montgomery Hall. Desperate, she advertises for a husband.
    Jared Armstrong, a former Marine sharpshooter and occasional Dom, needs $125,000 to get his family out of a hole. His solution – to marry Abigail Montgomery for her money. His only regret is his wife won’t accept his spanking lifestyle.
    Soon, Abigail dreams of making their marriage real, but she promised Jared a divorce two-years after their wedding. Can they share some Christmas magic as their relationship faces extortion threats, a kidnapping, and an attempted murder? Or will Jared walk away and break her heart?

    Is it true:

    this is your first book?
    No. My first book is a paranormal romance, To Wed a Werewolf. That led to a series full of hot werewolves, sexy vampires, and one cursed Fae who rides a dragon
    this book is part of a series?
    Yes. Marriage Mobsters and the Marine is the first novella in my Heroes of Westhorpe Ridge series. Each one features a former military man finding love in the small North Carolina town of Westhorpe Ridge. Although there are recurring characters, each book can be read as a standalone romance.
    you lost sleep while writing this book?
    Yes. My main publisher has shut its doors, but before they did, they put out requests for three linked stories.
    I’m the sort of girl who’s always late to the party. I couldn’t think of anything that met their full criteria. Then, six weeks before the submission deadline, I had three stories in my head. I’ve never written so fast or burned so much midnight oil.
    The fourth book in the series is a full-length novel, and I took my time over that.
    you did research for this book?
    Yes. I knew nothing about the American military and very little about North Carolina – except that it has a history of pirates. (That really mattered in the third book of the series – Desire, Deceit, and the Doctor.) Plus it has a beautiful coastline. Since Sean, the hero of Sex, Scandal and the Sheriff is a former navy Seal I needed that.
    Fortunately, I have lots of Facebook friends in North Carolina who didn’t mind me hounding them with questions. I did worry I’d get American agents hammering on my door when I started researching military bases in North Carolina, though.
    some characters in this book are not human? (pets for example)
    There’s Duffy, Sean’s dog. He’s a collie and crops up in the first three books. He’s important in Desire Deceit and the Doctor since he helps save a child who had fallen over a cliff.
    this book has more than one genre?
    Yes. I like my stories to feature more than just scorching hot sex. Each book is an adventure and romance.
    you speak more than one language?
    Yes, badly. I learned French in school and can make myself understood in France if I have to. I prefer to point and smile, though.
    you grew up where you live now?
    No. I grew up in a housing estate in Leeds, West Yorkshire. There was plenty of green space and loads of trees to climb. I stayed in Leeds until I retired then moved to the Yorkshire Coast. A few of my paranormal romances start in Whitby or Scarborough, close to my new home.
    you love to read?
    Yes. I’d get withdrawal symptoms if I didn’t have a fully loaded kindle.
    you are never late?
    No, not if I can help it.
    you love pizza?
    Yes, as long as it’s homemade. I love breadmaking, and pizza base is a doddle. Then we get creative with the toppings.
    you love sushi?
    No. I don’t mind vegetable sushi, but the thought of raw fish – other than smoked salmon – turns my stomach.
    you have a pet?
    No, but I’d like one. I a Welsh Terrier as child. He looked like a teddy bear on legs, but he was as fierce as he was small (14 inches). When the kids were little we had cats, and I’d have another now, but we shoot off to babysit grandkids on a monthly basis. It’s not fair on the animal to constantly put it in kennels.

    Kryssie Fortune Social Media

    Kryssie Fortune writes the sort of hot sexy books she loves to read. If she can sneak a dragon into her paranormal books she will. Her paranormal heroes are muscular werewolves, arrogant Fae, or BDSM loving dragons.
    Kryssie likes her contemporary heroes ex-military and dominant. Her heroines are kick ass females who can hold their own against whatever life – or Kryssie – throws at them.
    Kryssie’s pet hates are unhappy endings, and a series that end on a cliff hanger.
    Her books are all standalone even when part of series. Plot always comes before sex, but when her heroines and heroes get together, the sex is explosive and explicit. One review called it downright sensual.

    Fall for You (An M/M Romance) by Valerie Ullmer

    Sebastian, the outgoing life of the party, had taken advantage of his freedom of being away from home for college while Ethan remained the same, quiet and reserved.

    Genre New Adult Gay Romance
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    Ethan Sutton came to the stunning revelation he’d fallen in love with his best friend, Sebastian Young. Although friends since childhood, Ethan vowed to keep his feelings for Sebastian under wraps and live the rest of his life with this one secret between them. He’d rather keep their friendship than risk a lifelong connection and never see him again. But when they move into their own place at the start of their junior year, can Ethan keep his feelings from showing when they live so close together?
    Sebastian Young had an epiphany about Ethan at the end of last year. He moved them into a loft he’d found over the summer allowing him to be closer to Ethan. As they settle into their lives in a new place with such close quarters, ex-girlfriends, nosy downstairs neighbors, and Sebastian’s own doubts could put their relationship in jeopardy before it even begins.
    Can two best friends admit their feelings and fall in love?

    Know the Hero from Sebastian from Fall for You (An M/M Romance)

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your hero.

    He wakes Ethan and starts a stupid conversation about anything. Ethan will give him that soft smile that makes Sebastian stupidly happy and soon, Sebastian forgets about everything.
    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?
    A hotdog or nachos, something that you could get a movie.
    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.
    He likes shorts and a tee, something casual.
    Does he know how to fix things?
    He does, he’s good with his hands.
    What is he like first thing in the morning?
    Groggy. He has to have Ethan wake him up and push him toward the shower. Even then, he needs several cups of coffee and breakfast, cooked by Ethan, before he feels awake enough to pay attention.
    Can he use chopsticks?
    Of course.
    What apps would he have on his phone?
    Several puzzle games he uses to pass the time when he’s bored. Skype, so he can see Ethan’s face whenever he wants.
    Android or iPhone?
    He doesn’t care, but Ethan chooses an iPhone for him.
    Beard or clean-shaven?
    Clean shaven. He doesn’t like the feel of stubble.
    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?
    Unadorned.
    Personal vehicle or public transport?
    SUV
    Recycle or toss?
    Recycle

    In obedience to the oracle’s command, Thelan abducts a human woman and takes her to the Deepwood where she is unmade and remade by ancient magic.

Forging her own path and upsetting ancient tradition, she befriends the mysterious archivist, learns to live in a sentient palace, talks to dragons, and discovers a puzzling attraction to cats. And she must come to terms with the handsome and powerful fae male who claims her as his own and stirs her blood like none other.

    Perfectly Honest (Perfectly Series #1) by Linda O’ConnorFree Book by Linda O'Connor #FreeBookFriday #RLFblog

    You never know where your words will take you…
    When Mikaela Finn agreed to be Sam’s “fiancee” for a weekend, she probably should have told him that she’s a doctor. Sam O’Brien, aka “Dr Eye Candy”, is trying to shed his playboy reputation and convince a small town hospital that he’s ready to settle down. But when his ‘fiancée’ helps deliver a baby in the middle of the meet and greet, it’s a bit of a shock. If he’d known the whole truth, he might have done things a little differently because somehow his “fiancee” ends up stealing his job and his heart. Not exactly the change he wanted.
    Lies and deceit – it’s a match made in heaven!

    Free Book by Liese Sherwood-Fabre  #FreeBookFriday #RLFblogThe Life and Times of Sherlock-Holmes (#2) by Liese Sherwood-Fabre

    Return, once again, to 1895…
    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle references many everyday Victorian activities and elements of daily life that are lost on the twenty-first century reader. These short essays provide further understanding of nineteenth-century England and insight into the tales of Sherlock Holmes. With greater appreciation of such details as the significance of the blue ribbon, the role of doss houses for the poor, or how one contracted brain fever, Holmes’s cases take on a deeper meaning.
    Explore such topics as the Victorian pastimes of horse racing, boxing, and train travel; how the role of women changed with the introduction of the bicycle and typewriter; and common pleasures such as visiting pubs or drinking tea. The reader steps back to the London of 1895 and the realm of the world’s most famous consulting detective.
    “We have…always found [Dr. Sherwood-Fabre’s] essays to be both entertaining and informative as well as very well researched.”

Finding his solace in alcohol and women only made matters worse until he finally hit rock bottom. Now, he’s looking for redemption. When he’s asked to fly a wedding gown across the country for one of the victims of his wrongs, he doesn’t hesitate.
    Arriving in Indigo Bay, Josh finds himself captivated by the artist creating the wedding favors. He knows exactly what he wants—Hope—even though she deserves someone better. Can Josh prove he’s more than a broken has-been? Or will he not only lose Hope but also lose himself?
    Why did you write this book?
    While I was writing another book Jenny, part of the Beach Brides series, I couldn’t stop thinking about Josh Cooper, a secondary character who had a really bad first date with Jenny. Although that’s only mentioned briefly, I wanted to know more about Josh and his struggles. When I was given the opportunity to write for the Indigo Bay Sweet Romance series, Josh popped back into my head. I wanted to tell his story and knew Indigo Bay was the perfect world to do that.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    I love reading sweet contemporary romance. I think that’s why I love to write it.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    The Stand by Stephen King is my favorite novel so I’d have to say Nick Andros, with a couple other characters from that story coming in a close second and third.
    What are you working on at the moment?
    I’m working on a Christmas story that will be out in mid-October. It’s not part of any of my series so it’s been fun creating a new town and introducing the residents who live there.
    What books will we see from you in coming months?
    The Wedding Lullaby will be out in late September. That’s the second book in my new One Night to Forever series. The Christmas book will be out in October. The third book in my new series will be out in November. Still working on a title for that one.
