A rotten core with a deadly key that unlocks something even more sinister in one of the guy’s pasts.
And paradise is filled with lies and deceit…
As an ambassador for Tartarus, it’s my duty to bridge the gap between us and the other cities. But even more, as part of this team, it’s my right to know the truth.

LEE
I changed my name, but I can’t change what I did. My brothers died, and I spent three years in witness protection. Returning to Fields, where I once hid out, feels right. Seeing Miguel again feels even better. But when a dead body interrupts my tour of a building for sale, my start isn’t as fresh as I’d like.

MIGUEL
I’ve been trying to curb my habit of leaping into bad relationships, but when Lee comes back to town, he’s hard to resist. Kids are dying, and life’s too short to shy away from a good thing. But will Lee’s mysterious past come back to bite me?

Between police questioning and trials of trust, it’s far from smooth sailing. If we don’t figure out who’s selling synthetic drugs and convince the police Lee is not their man, we may all have a severe case of buyer’s remorse.

Take My Breath Away

Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

br />

Title: Take My Breath Away

Series: The Every Breath Duet #2

Author: Faith Andrews
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: October 1, 2018

 

Blurb

 

All I wanted to do was love her.
I couldn’t break her when she’d finally been
put back together . . . when she was finally mine.
I was a coward, a bigger a**hole than her
ex-husband, a more selfish pr*ck than her brother.
But London didn’t know that.
She only saw me as the man who would give her
the world, the man who owned her heart.
And even though the confession burned the tip
of my tongue and begged to be spit out and set free, I couldn’t do it.
Not yet . . . I needed to hold on to this lie
for just a little while longer to keep her safe.

Once Upon a Scandal

Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

 

Title: Once Upon a Scandal
Series: Royally Screwed #6
Author: Madison Faye
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: October 1, 2018

 

Blurb
Once upon a time, a nobody met a prince.
Then she met his best friend, a second prince.
Then she learned they like to share, and
that’s when things got interesting.
That’s when things got downright scandalous.
My life has never
been a fairytale. Absent parents, a grandmother gone too soon, and a job working
the kitchens for the most heinous bitch in the Kingdom of Bandiff.
But that’s before I
sneak into the hottest royal ball on the planet. That’s before I waltz right
into them.
The McDermott
Princes. Princes, plural. There’s two of them – both gorgeous
beyond belief, alpha as hell, and more tempting than sin. Both with their eyes
on me and both with that look that says that I’m theirs.
Two princes, one
baker. This might sound like too many cooks in the kitchen, but they say they
like to share. They say they’ll tear their whole kingdom down to make me theirs. They
say they want to make me their Queen.
Pretty soon,
breaking into a royal ball is the least of my problems.
This is a disaster
waiting to happen. It’s filthy, and oh-so-wrong. It’s a royal scandal of epic
proportions, and I’m right in the middle of it.
…I’m right in the
middle of them.
Maybe this is a
fairytale after all. Ever heard of the cook who found a crown? How about two
crowns? Two big, dominant, mouthwatering, pulse-quickening crowns.
I’ve never found a
happy ever after. Now, I think I’m about to find two of them.

Embracing forbidden love and testing the limits of love’s power to heal wounded hearts might be thrilling, but can they forge the kind of love that lasts forever?

House of Falling Embers

Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

Title: House of Falling Embers

Author: Krystal Jane Ruin

Genre: Paranormal/Retelling (Adult/New Adult)

Publisher: The Narcissistic Rose

Publication Date: October 1st, 2018

Hosted by: Lady Amber’s Reviews & PR

 

 

Blurb:

Once upon a time there was a witch. She was a kind witch, but that didn’t matter. The people were afraid, and fear often turns to hatred.

When Artemis was thirteen, her best friend Aris was swallowed by the crumbling house they found in the woods. Like a coward, she abandoned him to the horror within.

She moved away. She tried to forget. But when she finds herself back in her old neighborhood after college, the ghosts—and her guilt—are waiting. A charred figure stalks her dreams, and someone, or something, haunts her from the trees.

Going back into the woods might be the only way to save her sanity.

Because nine years later, the house is still there. Still waiting. Still restless.

Krystal Jane is the author of supernatural and paranormal fiction, living in the Tennessee Valley with a collection of swords and daggers. When she’s not hoarding stuffed

pandas, hourglasses, and Hello Kitty replicas, she can be found drinking chai tea or blogging about books, writing, and random things at KrystalSquared.net.

Fenton leads back against the bar, looking every inch the rich playboy. A woman I vaguely recognize as being a country music artist comes up to plants kisses on Fenton’s cheeks.

“Thank you so much for coming.” She bats her lashes at him and doesn’t spare me a glance. She uses her wine glass to gesture to the artwork and tables set up at the front of the room. “The silent auction is over there with all the usual fun stuff. When you have a minute, find me outside. I want to introduce you to someone.” She drifts away, the heavy scent of a flowery perfume trailing behind.

“So, I take it your boyfriend was okay with you going out tonight.” His eyes are fixated on something, or someone, outside by the pool. 

I’m not entirely sure why, but both his voice and what he said infuriate me. “I don’t need his permission.”

“You didn’t tell him.”

My fingers tighten around my glass. “I told him.” Not that it’s any of his business.

“Cute house you guys have. Off in the country like that. Surrounded by all those trees.” He shifts so his body is angled my way. “Isn’t that close to where that Asano kid grew up?” He’s still not looking at me when he says this, so he probably doesn’t see me nearly choke on my drink.

“What?” My voice wavers.

“You were friends with him, right?” He shifts his eyes to my face. “How are you holding up?”

It feels like the floor just dropped from under me. I clutch the cold trim of the bar for support. A thick mass of unshed tears fills my throat, and I have to mentally talk myself off a panic cliff.

When I don’t say anything, he continues. “The wellbeing of my employees is important to me.” His eyes trail over the dance floor before stopping back on my face. “I care.”

I lean away from him and drain the rest of my drink.
