Her Temporary Hero 
by Jennifer Apodaca





HTH_500Blurb:

Former beauty queen Becky Holmes and her baby are on the run from her dangerous ex. With her dreams of love and marriage destroyed, she’ll do anything to protect her child…even agree to hide out in her boss’s cousin’s house while he’s away.  

Wealthy, sexy, and emotionally haunted Logan Knight needs a temporary wife to get his land, per his dad’s rules. No wife, no inheritance. But when that wife lands on his doorstep and comes with a baby, his darkest memories are triggered. He tries to keep his distance, but his efforts are shattered when he starts to have real feelings for his fake wife and child.  

 Just as Logan begins to think he may have a future with Becky, his attempt to have it all backfires into a betrayal that forces Becky into a heart-wrenching choice no woman should ever have to make.

Author, author... Spotlight on Her Royal Protector by Alexandra Sellers + Giveaway

Her Royal Protector

Alexandra Sellers

 

Blurb: Aly Percy is her family's ugly duckling, and she's never been allowed to forget it. So she knows better than to imagine that Cup Companion Arif al Najimi's blue gaze holds anything but contempt for her as a woman, or ever will. But if he's offering to show her just how wild one night with him can be, wouldn't she be a fool to turn down his charity? She may never get another offer like this one.

Arif al Najimi isn't sure why he's dreaming about the little scientist who's so determined to take crazy risks for the sake of her research into the endangered turtles of his country. But as luck would have it, he's going to get the chance to do a little research of his own…into the question of why Aly believes her own negative publicity about how desirable she is—and how hard it will be to convince her of the truth.

Author, author....Hollywood Temptation by Scarlet Wilson

... read all about it !!




Interview with Selena Harris – heroine of Hollywood Temptation

What brings you to Hollywood, Selena?

It’s a funny kind of story.  I’m part Scot, part Texan.  I came to the USA for the job opportunities.  And I had a job, then kind of lost it when everyone else lost theirs.  I’ve been trying to find something else but keep meeting the same people at every interview I go to.  It seems that every barista at Starbucks currently has an MBA.

Why have you stayed?

I love it here.  The weather and people are awesome.  And I met someone who told me just to move in and have a good time.  So I did.  Until the visa bill came in and he threw me out.

How did you get your injury?

Mark threw one of my Christian Louboutin’s out of the apartment window.  It kind of took me by surprise and knocked me out.

Were you angry with him?

Not really.  Well, maybe.  Once I realised he’d damaged my shoes.

What about Seacliffe clinic?

I was lucky.  I went there to get my head stitched, forgot I’d maxed out my visa and needed a way to my bill.  Colt Travers decided to let me temp here for a month.

What do you make of Colt Travers?

Doctor Temptation?  He smoulders.  Constantly.  Particularly when he’s around me.  I’m counting down the weeks until I’m not officially an employee anymore.  Because, after that?  Who knows what could happen between us.

How will you keep your hands to yourself in the meantime?

Superglue.  Or I’ll sit on them.  Or I’ll imagine Helen the owners face.  She’s on to me already.  Or I might have to resort to taking cold showers.  If I don’t,  I’ll end up in the spa hot tub and hope that someone will join me….

Hollywood Temptation

Scarlet Wilson

 

About the book:  Hollywood surgeon Colt Travers needs a new receptionist ASAP.  When the adorable—and completely broke—Selena Harris comes in needing stitches, he takes a risk and hires her on the spot. She can pay off her bill, and he won’t have to answer the phone anymore. They're opposites in every way, and she's exactly what he doesn’t want in a woman—impulsive, carefree, and amusing. He's trying to resist her, but the longer she's around, the further he sinks into temptation.

 

Selena never meant to get herself in such deep financial straits. LA has way too much temptation, from high-end shopping to gorgeous men, and now her life is in chaos. But Colt is different—responsible and noble—and although their chemistry is off the charts, he’s keeping her at arm’s length. She's determined to win his trust--and his heart--but will the secrets she's desperately trying to hide ruin their chance for a big Hollywood happy ending?

Excerpt:

Excerpt:  A car skidded to a halt outside. He stood up and walked over to the window. It wasn’t the type of car that normally appeared in their parking lot. Not the usual parking spot, either. It was usually cars-for-the-stars around here. But this was a run-of-the-mill car. He watched as a blonde bombshell emerged from the car, pressing something to her head. There was a parking

lot directly to her left. It was clearly marked. She had practically blocked the driveway parked there. Another woman who thought the rules were made for everyone else.

She looked upward and he caught his breath. Even in her disheveled state he could see she was a knockout. Blond hair around her shoulders, lovely bone structure—the one thing a plastic surgeon always noted—lightly tanned skin, curves in all the right places, and fuchsia-pink lips. His favorite color on a woman.

He watched as she struggled to straighten her blouse and skirt with one hand, a signature handbag weighing her down as she continued to press something to her head. She stumbled. He winced. The last thing they needed was someone to fall on their way into the clinic and sue them. Bad publicity and lawsuits were not what they needed right now.

Something was caught around her ankle. He could see the bright scrap catching on the stiletto heel of her shoe. She stopped and dumped her bag on the ground then bent down to retrieve the wayward piece of material. Her head shot back up quickly, glancing at all the windows in the clinic. Her face was scarlet.

It wasn’t. It couldn’t be.

Yes, it was.

Colt couldn’t stop the hearty laugh he let out as she bent down and stuffed the pink thong into her bag.

Author, author... Sofia Grey with CRASH INTO LOVE + giveaway

Thank You by Led Zeppelin


 

Music plays a huge part of my life and it feels perfectly natural when I’m writing, to weave it in alongside the story. I listen to music obsessively when I’m working on a book, and also when I’m curled up reading. One day I’ll either dedicate an entire room to being a library, or I’ll have a padded window seat to snuggle into. Until then, I’ll make do with a sagging-but-comfortable sofa. And if I have to put up with the TV in the background, well that’s where iPods and earbuds come into their own.

 

Where do you like to read? Do you have a favourite place? 

Want some exclusive swag?  One Lucky Commenter will get one of these gorgeous little fridge magnets, and yes, I will post international :)  Don't forget to leave your email address in case you win !!
 

 

A lovely, gentle song to read to is Thank You originally by Led Zeppelin.

 

And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,

 Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.

 Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.

 

I actually prefer the cover version by Chris Cornell.

 


 

 

In Crash Into Love, Cass thinks longingly about curling up with a good book to pass the time, but that’s before she meets Jonah, the much younger guy staying next door.

 

~

Jonah lifted his head and opened his mouth to speak. I braced myself for the thanks-and-good-bye spiel.

“Can I hold you?” I blinked. Not what I expected.

“I’d love you to.” Cuddles as well? Maybe this was all a sexy dream conjured up by my inner romance author? I rolled over, and he spooned around me as naturally as if we’d been doing this for years. One arm pillowed my head, the other lay around my waist with his hand cupping my breast. Soft kisses peppered the back of my neck, and a warm sigh tugged at my heart. Don’t even think of wanting more than this. He’ll be going home in a few days. Don’t spoil the moment.

I relaxed into him, turning my head occasionally to kiss wherever I could reach. The rain renewed its frenzied dance on the roof, and I smiled at my earlier daydream. I’d wanted to snuggle up on the couch, but this was a million times better. 

~ 

 

Blurb:


Cass thought spending a month at a beachside hideaway relaxing and collecting shells would be the perfect escape to finish her novel. When she meets the dark and brooding and much younger Jonah, who's staying next door, her book becomes the last thing on her mind.

 

Jonah would rather stay home alone than go on vacation with his brother and their friends, but does his best to tolerate the situation after being convinced to go. But when he sees the beauty next door, he can’t avoid his attraction.


Together, they break all the rules, but will Cass be able to bring Jonah out of his shell forever, or will he leave her with only the crash of the surf to keep her company?

Author bio:

Romance author Sofia Grey spends her days managing projects in the corporate world and her nights hanging out with wolf shifters and alpha males. She devours pretty much anything in the fiction line, but she prefers her romances to be hot, and her heroes to have hidden depths. When writing, she enjoys peeling back the layers to expose her characters’ flaws and always makes them work hard for their happy endings.

 

Music is interwoven so tightly into my writing that I can’t untangle the two. Either I’m listening to a playlist on my iPod, have music seeping from my laptop speakers, or there’s a song playing in my head – sometimes on auto-repeat.
