Nashville Trio, A Music City Ménage
by Joy Daniels

Description:

Music City, USA

After years of hard work country music duo Sweet Talk is on the verge of success. Singer Ashley Ford swore off the romantic entanglements that cost her mother her musical career, but her playing has fallen flat. She needs a spark.

Where inspirations strikes

Co-singer Rob usually find his pleasure with men, but when Ashley runs back to the arms of her ex lover Ty, he realizes that he’s no longer content being only a friend.

A tangled trio

Pride kept Ty from pursing Ashley to Nashville. When Ashley returns to his bed, Ty vows not to give her up again, even if it means sharing her with a man he finds aggravating – and surprisingly attractive.

When secrets and ambition seem poised to destroy her chance to be a star, Ashley must decide if she’s willing to risk it all for a Nashville Trio.

About the Author:

I write erotic romance because I like to expose my characters completely – strengths, flaws and scars. My debut novella, Revving Her Up, was the first story in the Full Throttle series, which focuses on the bad boys – and girls – of stock car racing. It was a Night Owl Reviews Top Pick, and has been called "one heck of a sexy ride" (Sizzling Hot Books), and "a hell of a sexy read" (Read-Love-Blog). I am currently working on the next two stories in the series.

My newest novel, Nashville Trio, is a steamy MMF ménage novel about a country singer and the two very different men in her life. It comes out May 5, 2014.

New Adult romance is my new favorite passion. I love writing stories with angst and heart, heart-melting kisses, and happy endings. I'm currently working on two New Adults series. The first, Running Scared , is about a Boston University student and the bodyguard hired to protect her from herself. It will be out in August 2014. The second series is a trilogy (Scarred, Burned, and Marked) about three friends bound together by a terrible tragedy and the scars it left behind.

I'm originally from New York City, (and still a loyal Yankees fan!), but since moving south, I've developed passions for NASCAR and country music. Both feature in my recent stories. In addition to writing (and reading) I enjoy yoga, bellydancing, and growing veggies in the Washington, D.C. area with my scientist husband and two curious kids. I'm active in the Washington Romance Writers, and the Maryland Romance Writers, and have been a member of the Romance Writers of America (RWA) since 2009.

Thrown By Love by Pamela Aares

Tour Schedule

Book: Thrown By Love
Author: Pamela Aares
Series: Heart of the Game, #2
Tour Organized by: Indie Sage, LLC

Synopsis
A kiss in a dark alcove triggers the greatest challenge of their lives… Ace pitcher Scotty Donovan has been traded from his longtime team—and hates it. But to his surprise, he now finds himself in the sweetest game of his life: winning the heart of smart, sexy physics professor Chloe McNalley. Chloe loves teaching, but she’s never fit into academia. When she falls for Scotty, she discovers his arms and heart are where she belongs. They share a passion for the game, a fascination for the mysteries of the universe and an increasing love for one another. Then Chloe inherits Scotty’s new team. As player and team owner, they shouldn’t be dating. They try to hide their passion, until a blackmailer threatens them personally and professionally. Exposure could be the end of everything–Scotty’s career, Chloe’s team ownership, and their new love—unless they find a way to transcend the taboo standing between them.

Thrown By Love by Pamela Aares My rating: 4 of 5 stars I received this book as a complimentary copy for an honest review. This is the first book I have read from Author Pamela Aares.

This is the story of a woman, Chloe, who looses her father, her last living relative, and inherits a baseball team. I really liked how the relationship with her father and the loss of him was approached, it brought another detention to this story and made you love Chloe. She struggles with the grief and loss while falling in love with a man who is off limits. Scotty the pitcher of her baseball team is a sweet, sexy man who falls hard for Chloe and wants to find a way to be together.

There are many interesting twists and turns in this book that kept my interest in the story. The struggles that are faced with the press and the many obstacles that are thrown in the way of having a relationship along the way made me keep turning the pages to find out what was next.

I very much enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from this author. View all my reviews

Come Away With Me by Ruth Cardello
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been a Fan of Ruth Cardello since Book one of the Legacy Series and her books keep getting better. This book is the first book of her new series The Andrades, and is an extension of the Legacy series .

I loved the story just as much as the Legacey Series. I couldn’t put it down once I started reading it. It is everything I want in a Romance; Hot, Sweet, Sassy with enough humor thrown in to keep the pages turning at a rapid pace.

Come Away with Me is Geo and Julia’s story. Julia is a jewelry maker and artist that moved to the bug city to try to help her family back home recover from hard times. Through a series of mishaps (Including clocking her boss) she meets and falls for Geo who is a strong, rich, protective male who decides that he wants Julia.
Congratulations Ruth on another great book. I am looking forward to meeting the rest of the Andrades, Keep the coming.

Oceans Apart by Emma Fitzgerald

Nobody ever cares for second place. Talented public relations associate, Annie Scott, knows second place well. She has never been anyone’s priority and is sick of wallowing in self pity, sick of being an option. In a snap decision, she flees her hometown of Nashville for the unknown shores of Sydney, Australia. There she can be whoever she wants to be. Perhaps, the enforced solitude will give her back her identity and kickstart a new path in life. Professional surfer, Cam Hart, is home on leave from the Pro Tour, and in desperate need of some rest, relaxation and maybe, a little female company. All extremely achievable at his home in Bronte, Sydney. There will be women willing and waiting for him, of that he has no doubt. He’s never been a relationships kind of guy, and after his embarrassing defeat for the recent World Title, the idea of losing himself in between the sheets for some no-strings fun, definitely has appeal. Fate throws Cam and Annie in each other’s path. Their attraction to each other is immediate. Cam believes he has found the perfect girl to distract him for a few weeks, while Annie is ready to throw caution to the wind and dive into a holiday romance. The two drifting souls soon realise that their chemistry and passion is more than they bargained for. Cam has never wanted to entrust his heart to anyone again. But, with Annie, he sees that he may indeed want a future, a change from his impulsive and wild ways. Could Cam actually be capable of such change? Should Annie consider Cam to be more than a summer fling, or will she be bound by her insecurities and not believe him worth the risk? Will she return to her hometown, the same as she left it: alone.
