Liberty

by C.A. King


She was the law on the run, hiding from the danger past arrests brought with them, searching for a new place to call home. The Old Pass held promise... at first. That was until they came into her life. Now, everyone saw her as compromised in more than one way and by more than one man.

It didn’t matter if her judgment was clouded. Other clans could take their Justice... their pursuit of happiness. Once the pack had a taste of Liberty, they knew what was worth fighting for. She was their everything, and no one, no matter how powerful, was going to change that.


I was diagnosed with clinical depression after the loss of my mother, father and husband within three years of each other; all to cancer. 24/7 in-home care, coupled with the loss I felt, left its mark on my psyche.

Depression takes up a lot of my life. Reading and writing are the only things I have found that help (in connection with regular medication), even if only for a short time. To escape to a different world can make a big difference in my mood in real time.

To put things in perspective, when I was at my lowest point, I couldn't open mail, talk on the phone, or even drive to the store. Walls of sadness surrounded me. As they closed in, tears would fall. There didn't need to be a reason or trigger.

People ask me why I started writing. My answer is simple: I wanted to create a world into which other people with similar problems could escape. I wanted to share the one place that had helped me for many years.

I have always said that as long as one person finds a little bit of happiness out of my books, I am, in my opinion, an accomplished author. The same is true for every writer out there. Please don't ever let anyone tell you different.

I read books as well as write them and have visited the worlds many different authors have created. Those worlds not only make me feel better, but give me the strength to face real life again. I want to thank everyone who writes—I want them to know they are making a difference.

Fast forward to today...

Cover Reveal ~ In the Shadow of a Wish by Maci Aurora

In the Shadow of a Wish
Maci Aurora
Publication date: April 26th 2022
Genres: Adult, Fantasy, Romance

In the Kingdom of Kaloma, women are forced to marry by the age of 26. It’s the law.

In the remote village of Sevens, at the northernmost point of the king- dom, there lives an impoverished family with four daughters and a son. Without the means to make love matches, the daughters are trapped by their circumstances.</ strong>

When one daughter discovers a golden key deep in the Whitling Woods, it may have the power to change everything...

Auri Fareview, practical and realistic, does what she can to serve her family. When she finds a golden key that could be the answer she needs to save her sisters from the unjust Kaloma Marriage Laws, she discovers the treasure might be more than she bargained for. Enchanted, it doesn’t just come with a price attached, it’s also home to an imprisoned god, who wreaks havoc on her body, her heart, and her soul. And those aren’t practical matters. He has the power to break her.

Nixus Uraiahs has lost track of how long he’s been imprisoned by the spell on the key. There have been six key-keepers, all of whom have failed to break the spell to free him, and Nix knows he’s the reason why they haven’t. So, he will hold this 7th key-keeper accountable to the bargain of the spell: three wishes and a price for each. There’s no hope in her freeing him, however. Nix knows she’ll be like all the key-keepers who came before her. Except Auri approaches her wishes differently than any of the others, and Nix begins to see her as more than just a key-keeper. She intrigues him, proving her strength, surprising him, and enchanting him. Though he’s entrapped by the enchantment placed on the key, Nix realizes his heart is at risk of being captured by the seventh key-keeper. That is a risk he can’t afford to take knowing his villainy is just a single wish away.

Book Blitz ~ Unmeasured by Alyssa Turner #giveaway

Unmeasured
Alyssa Turner</ strong>
(Unmatched, #1)
Publication date: March 15, 2019
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

SHE’s a good girl, or at least she tries to be. People think Samantha Hunter lives a fairytale life. Only this young, wealthy American in Paris has a secret. If she lets it free, there’s no telling what she’ll do. Being the wild child is one thing. Letting her dark fantasies run wild is quite another. How could she? The better question is...how could she not?

HE wears a suit, but he is not entirely civilized. Oleg Balashov is often hungry for something he’ll probably never find. His closest friends have similar appetites and the private club they own is the perfect place to feed their desires. Oleg is ready to pay an old debt with an arranged marriage, mafia style. Then Samantha appears on a bar stool with just enough curiosity to get her into trouble. She’s in way over her pretty head. Or is it the other way around? The Masters of Club Duval have a new pet and she isn’t so easy to tame. Samantha Hunter is about to rewrite all the rules for these Doms and nothing will ever be the same.

Trigger warning: Oleg owns a whip, and he knows how to use it. After the hap- pily ever after ending, the epilogue of this book will be an introduction to the pro- logue of book 2, Unleashed.

EXCERPT:

Finally, he spoke. His voice was a raspy and feral version of itself. “Your safe- word... Scream it loud. Scream it at the top of your fucking lungs, because I need your screams today for all the wrong fucking reasons.”

He cracked the whip again, and it snapped her shoulder blade with the thinnest of cuts, sounding like a gunshot, feeling like a hornet’s kiss.

“If I hurt you...” he said.

She turned around, and her gaze locked first on his trembling hand and then his tortured eyes. “I will survive you.”

“If you survive me, then you can have me, because truly I belong to no one else.” The whip cracked above her head.

“Turn the fuck around!”

When she did, he snapped a sideways strike across her ass. Her flesh lit with fiery agony. She balled her fists and inhaled deeply, trusting his control over the nine-foot length of braided leather.

Then a loud thud sounded, and a crash followed. She turned around to see Oleg stalking toward her, his whip strewn across the floor next to a broken vase.

Heavy, billowing breaths blew past his lips. He scratched his chin and then rubbed the back of his head. One last swallow, and he steadied himself. The worst of the storm had passed and she’d survived. In fact, she’d more than survived. Samantha had stood in the eye of the storm and remained on her feet.

“Where the hell did you come from?” he demanded, grabbing both of her shoulders, shaking her once, though she was certain he wasn’t concerned with the name of her hometown.

She didn’t flinch. His hold on her was nothing to fear. Then his thumbs swiped at the teardrops on her cheeks before he decided to sip on them instead. She melted right there. “How did you find me?” she asked the same unseen knower of all things.

God, how badly she wanted this man inside of her. She pawed at the chastity belt, angry at it so suddenly. Danger wafted off him in invisible waves, unspoken, ul- trasonic, undeniably magnetic. The beautiful, broken monster had revealed himself, raw, untethered, and she devoured his anger, his pain. It had given her peace even as she hungered to know the limits of his pain, to be at the sharp edge of his de- spair with him. But why? What could be found in dark, bottomless pools that made her want to jump in? She’d been asking herself that question all her life and still didn’t have an answer.

Release Blitz ~ Down and Dirty by Mari Carr

Down and Dirty, the first all-new standalone romance in the steamy Italian Stallion Series from New York Times bestselling author Mari Carr is available now!

Confirmed bachelors Tony Moretti and Dr. Reece Beaumont share the same motto—work hard, play harder. But when fate drops a homeless waitress and her young son on their doorstep, their wild and free lifestyle takes a sharp turn. Their desire to help her is only surpassed by their desire to claim her, share her, make her theirs.

Jess has one goal in life—protect her son. But when an overcrowded shelter puts her and Jasper out on the street in the dead of winter, she fears she's going to fail that mission. Help comes in the form of not one, but two sexy saviors.

Tony and Reece offer Jess a place to stay and security, and there's no denying the chemistry between the three of them. However, Jess's past is lined with people who've hurt her and she's not looking to add anyone else to that list. No matter how persuasive, how determined, how deliciously possessive her new roommates are.

Fall in love with Tony and Reece!

Blog Tour ~ For the Strange and Surprising by M.F. Adele #Excerpt #Giveaway

For the Strange and Surprising: Where the Mongrels Are
M.F. Adele
(Where They Are, #1)
Publica- tion date: August 27th 2021
Genres: Adult, Reverse Harem, Romance, Science Fiction

I’m a catastrophe waiting to happen—I always have been.

When a waterspout drops me on the shores of a seemingly deserted island, I soon realize that I’m not on Earth, and I’m not alone.

This new world is full of dangers, from sea monsters and feuding tribes to poi- sonous food and beasts that lurk in the shadows. None of those things are as dan- gerous as the Mongrel men appointed to guard and teach me.

All I want to do is go home, but the island has no intentions of letting me leave.

I’ll be forced to interact with total strangers to survive this perilous land sur- rounded by treacherous waters.

My dreams of happiness sink into the dark depths below as I struggle to save myself from certain death.

The Mongrels will learn that fear makes a person reckless.

My name is Adelaide Storm.
But they’ll call me Ada Stormbrave.

Goodreads / Amazon

Excerpt 

I just grin at him, unable to find a single care about what he thinks of me or where I came from. 
He’ll figure out that I’m not lying when I leave, when I finally get to go home.
 “Could you find it in your heart to do one last, tiny favor for me?” 
I ask in a sullen voice, making sure my eyes are slightly downcast. 
I see Talodus smile while shaking his head, so I know that he sees through me. 
“What’s that?” Ecaeris questions dismissively, ready to throw me out as soon as he can. 
“Would you kindly check the beach where the guards found me? I left something important there.” 
His brows pinch together, not following why I would ask for that. 
“And what should I be looking for exactly?” “Any of the fucks I could have given you. 
I feel like I had more when I started swimming toward the shore earlier.” 
The prince glares at me, and I shrug. “If they aren’t on the beach, then they probably sank somewhere in the hundreds of yards that I had to swim to get to land. 
You’re more than welcome to check with the huge fucking octopus that was chasing me, too.”

Blog Tour ~ One Spring Break by Sophie Stevens #Excerpt #Giveaway

One Spring Break
Sophie Stevens
Publication date: January 10th 2022
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance

Flat-ass. Chubby cheeks. Whore.

Pre-med student, Rosie Magee, has been called every slur imaginable by her obnoxious roommate, a foul-tempered fellow who drops food on the floor and poops wherever he pleases. If the insult thrower didn’t have scarlet feathers and a beak capable of shearing fingers, she’d happily kick him out. But her roommate, a macaw named Baby, belongs to her snotty sister Maria, and according to their mother, if the siblings want room and board, they’re stuck together until graduation. After scrimping and saving, Rosie has finally tucked away enough money to escape from her boyfriend-stealing sister and her evil, yellow-eyed minion for one spring break.

Wholesome. Good guy. Boy next door.

Engineering student, Erik Snider, never believed good guys finish last until his girlfriend has a one-night-stand with a local thespian, Tulsa Lester. She wants to reconcile, but Erik can’t forgive a betrayal so deep. When he learns she’s moved on while he’s still mourning their relationship, his roommate hatches a plan for revenge —ask out the prettiest girl on campus, Maria Magee, and take her to the spring for- mal his ex will be attending. Though not the vengeful type, Erik is desperate enough to agree in hopes a date with a gorgeous girl will help him heal, but pretty girls have agendas of their own. If he wants an evening with Maria, he’ll have to take care of her demanding macaw for one spring break.

When Baby escapes Erik’s care, Rosie ditches her vacation to help him find her sister’s macaw. As they fight off parrot hungry hawks and navigate trees with flimsy branches, they form a bond that might just verge on love. But nothing comes easily for Rosie. With a man-stealing sister who lives to torment her, and a best friend Tulsa who tore apart Erik’s relationship, happily-ever-after will be anything but smooth sailing.

One spring break brought them together.

An insolent bird...

A hateful sister...

A best friend with secrets...

Will tear them apart.

Excerpt

Sweet baby Jesus, she’s staring at my lips. Not just staring, but eying them longingly as 

though she wants me to kiss her, and at the same time, she’s terrified I might try. 

Oh, hell yes. Game on. 

I rise up to sitting, moving slowly enough not to spook her. Guys are always wishing 

for the obvious sign, the go light that tells them it’s okay to make a move. Most girls are 

so damn vague when they give it, but not Rosie. Oh no. Not the beautiful girl sitting next

to me. She doesn’t just like me—she wants me. It’s written all over her face. I want her 

five times more, but we can deal with the inequality later. Right now, I have a girl to kiss.

Her cheeks are stained pink as she watches me, seeming both wary and intrigued 

by what I’m doing. Her eyes flick to my mouth again, then just as quickly, rise to hold my

gaze. When her tongue glides over her bottom lip, moistening it, I know the moment is 

right, and I lean as close as I can without actually touching her lips. 

Her breath catches, and she ever so slightly leans away, but I already have my hand

gliding toward her neck, and when she tries to lean back farther, I wrap my palm around

her neck and hold her steady. 

Our lips brush tentatively, and she inhales softly. On a whimpered moan, she says, 

“Erik?” 

That’s the last thing I allow her to say, and I crash my lips into hers, hard and 

reckless. My tongue glides over the seam of her mouth, and she tastes like flour tortillas

and tangy heat from the tacos. I wait to see if she’ll open to me, allow me inside, and 

when her lips part, I want to sing with joy, but instead I draw her closer, wrapping my 

other hand around her waist and dragging her to me. I’d climb a thousand more trees to 

kiss her like this. 

My tongue delves inside her mouth, and she lets out a tiny whimper then moans with

what I hope is pleasure. When her hands thread delicately through my hair, I know I 

have her. She wants this as much as I do. Her mouth presses harder against mine, and 

in what can only be called a daring move for a girl as sweet as Rosie, her tongue 

tangles with mine, sparring, then tentatively slips into my mouth. 

I hadn’t expected that, and I moan my approval then slip both hands into her glorious

hair. Dear God, her hair. It’s so soft and thick, my fingers get caught in the tight curls. I 

never want to escape them. She has the hair of Merida from Brave, wild and alive, just 

like the way she kisses me. There’s more fire in this girl than I had realized, and that 

makes me want her even more. 

Closer. I need her closer, like in my lap. 

Just as I slip both hands around her waist and urge her up, I hear the intruding 

sound of a man clearing his throat. Rosie must not have heard it because she’s doing 

exactly what I had wanted—sliding into my lap. Her hands are on my shoulders as she 

shifts her weight onto me, and her lips never leave mine. 

The intruding sound comes again, and I know I need to open my eyes and see what 

the heck is going on outside our little mouth and tongue party, but I want to hold onto 

this moment for one second longer because I’m afraid that once it ends, I may never get

it back.

Release Blitz ~ The Best Men by Lauren Blakely & Sarina Bowen

   

  THE BEST MEN by Sarina Bowen & Lauren Blakely Release Date: January 18th, 2022   THE BEST MEN by Bestselling authors Sarina Bowen and Lauren Blakely is NOW LIVE!! Don’t miss out on this enemies-to-lovers, opposites-attract, irresistibly sexy standalone romance between the best man and the other best man!  

  NOW AVAILABLE!!! 
Narrated by Teddy Hamilton & Jacob Morgan!    
   

   

    Blurb: 

In my defense, I was left alone with a bottle of single-malt and a life-long penchant for protecting my baby sister. Still, that's no excuse to send ten drunk-texts on why her hasty marriage would be a mistake.   If only I had just texted my sister. But nope. I accidentally sent the message to her, her groom, and his super hot wingman.   I also used the phrase “super hot wingman,” so I’d like to die now.   Instead, I have to plan a wedding with the aforementioned hottie and share a too-small guesthouse in steamy Miami.   Three days in the sun with the cocky, charming former athlete who likes to push my buttons? Fine, two can play at that let’s-infuriate-each-other game.   Until Asher ups the stakes with one wildly sexy suggestion. A no-strings fling, then I go back to my single dad life in New York, and he returns to his star- studded one.   Sign me up.   But the more nights I spend with the other best man, the more I want days too, and that just can't happen. Especially when I find out the real reason why...   Contents Include: First times, a secret to-do list, champion-level flirting, fast cars, #eggplants, and two men who look good in formal wear.
