Title: Keep the Beat
A Band-Com for Romance Geeks Author: Kata ÄuiÄ Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: April 21, 2020
Blurb
Sophia Reston has never been bothered by the term band geek. The definition of geek is an enthusiast or expert in a particular field or activity. She loves marching band with all her heart, so the term is appropriate. Of course, one of the lesser known definitions of a geek is a carnival performer who is often billed as a wild man and whose act typically includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake. This definition also seems accurate since there is one snake Sophia fantasizes about maiming in the most deliciously torturous waysâher archnemesis, James Fossoway.
He has a stupid nickname, stupidly attractive muscles, a reputation for sleeping around, and he is a fellow band geek. Unfortunately for Sophia, heâs also an enthusiast of pushing all her buttonsâand not in a good way.
When their rivalry leads to one final showdown during the competition for head drum major, the entire band is invested in the outcome. And James has some new tricks up his sleeve to win the last battle theyâll ever wage against each other.
Because, after years of pranks, James isnât out for revenge. He wants Sophiaâs heart.
Or maybe it's just another dumb challenge.

Excerpt
âWhy is it so hard to imagine that I could put the needs of the band before my own? You might hate my guts, but you canât deny you know me. I love band, James. Iâll do anything to make our senior year successful.â
Silent laughter dances in his eyes. This is not the reaction I was hoping to get from calling him James again. âYou mean, youâll do anything to make your senior year successful.â
He never denies hating my guts. Thatâs noteworthy. Or not.
âItâs no secret or surprise every one of us wants the head drum major spot for ourselves. You, me, and the other guys are all going to be trying to get the votes. Donât make it out to be some sort of covert operation that only Iâm participating in.â
Only I am. And so are they.
Screw being an attorney. I should be a spy. I actually think I just said all that with a completely straight face.
âIs that right?â James nods, his gaze sweeping over my face like heâs trying to play hide-and-seek with all the lies piling up between us in this room.
âYes, thatâs right.â I struggle not to nod and raise my voice to the liar, liar, pants on fire octave.
âOkay.â James crosses his arms over his chest without stepping back, nearly knocking me off-balance. âProve it.â
âProve what?â That physical move was meant to reinforce this mental one. âThat I love band?â
âProve that weâre friends now.â He swings his finger in the miniscule distance between us.
Distance that feels stifling all of a sudden. Did the AC break down? Maybe I am dehydrated after all. Iâm sweating while chills skitter down my spine.
âHow?â
He rolls his eyes up and sticks his tongue in his cheek, making a big show of pretending to think about it when itâs obvious he already has a suggestion waiting to pounce out of his throat like a bloodthirsty tiger. When he focuses his intense blue eyes on me, a sneery sort of smile creeps along his lips until he looks like a lopsided Joker. Itâs turning into a freaking circus in this tiny, tiny room.
âKiss me.â

Nothing else has mattered. Until her. She dug her way in without any invitation. Now, she haunts my dreams and makes me lose focus. The one mortal off-limits, and regardless of how hard I try, I can’t stay away. And the more untouchable she becomes, the more I want her. At first, she’s a distraction that could cost me the eternity I’ve worked so hard to protect. But then she becomes a danger beyond anything I’ve ever imagined. When it comes to her, it’s not only my immortality hanging in the balance. This woman threatens my soul’s very existence Our story was always meant to be messy—because, at the end, one of us has to die. ★ Start reading today! ★ Amazon: https://amzn.to/2JsI2U5 Goodreads: http://bit.ly/darkenedsoulGR Catch up on the series with book 1, Fallen Rebel. You've never met a fallen angel like this before! Amazon: https://smarturl.it/7hsnon Goodreads: bit.ly/FRBlaine-GR My voice trembles, and unwilling to give him my tears, I start to walk away until Chaz spins me by the waist, trapping me between his arms and his hard body. I have to lean back to put space between us, and I tip my chin up to meet his harsh glare.“Trust me, Nyx,” he says, “I want to hate you.” One of his hands moves, and I can’t tell if he means to or not, but his cool fingers graze my back under my shirt, making me shiver. “You want to, or you do?” I sound out of breath, and I realize how fast I’m breathing, my grip digging into his biceps. He licks his lips, his eyes falling to my mouth at the same time, then they come back to mine different, darker. “Want,” he rasps. “I want to hate you. So. Fucking. Much.” Two breaths—one mine, one his—and then his lips are on mine. I grab the back of his neck as he sets me onto the sad excuse for a kitchen counter, knocking over the row of plastic cups. No part of him is asking permission, not his hands tugging my straps down my arms, not his tongue sinking into my mouth. And I know he won’t be trying to take any second of it away from me this time.

I loved to hate her...
She made it so easy. She was everything I wasnâtâeverything I didnât want to be.
A reminder that from the moment I was born, I was the outcast. The rebel.
I went against everything that was expected of me and created a life on my terms. I built my own empire, carved out my own destiny.
Then she shows up at my tattoo studio, representing everything I tried to escape. She expects to just fit in, like she ever could.
Tabitha Anderson.

If everything changes and she proves she does fit in, will it still be hate Iâm feeling or something else entirely?
And if Iâm wrong, then sheâs right where she belongs... with me.

Title: By a Thread
Author: Lucy Score
Genre: A Grumpy Boss Romantic Comedy
Release Date: April 23, 2020
Dominic was staring at me like he couldn’t decide whether to chop me into pieces or pull my hair and French kiss me.
Dominic
I got her fired. Okay, so I’d had a bad day and took it out on a bystander in a pizza shop. But there’s nothing innocent about Ally Morales. She proves that the first day at her new job… in my office… after being hired by my mother.
So maybe her colorful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine’s offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe my after-hours fantasies are haunted by those brown eyes and that sharp tongue.
But that doesn’t mean that I’m going to be the next Russo man to take advantage of his position. I might be a second-generation son of a… fill in the blank, but I am not my father.
She’s working herself to death at half a dozen dead-end jobs for some secret reason she doesn’t feel like sharing with me. And I’m going to fix it all. Don’t accuse me of caring. She’s nothing more than a puzzle to be solved. If I can get her to quit, I can finally peel back all those layers. Then I can go back to salvaging the family name and forget all about the dancing, beer-slinging brunette.

MAXIMUM DARE by Vanessa Fewings
Release Date: April 30th
Add to Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50224502-mBlurb: Daisy:
You’re probably wondering what I’m doing hanging off the edge of London’s tallest building, The Shard.
I can explain. Kind of. Because I’m not even sure who the invitation came from to join the Dare Club. But I’ve narrowed it down to two men: Max Marquis, a tall, gorgeous Brazilian lawyer with an accent to die for and Nick Banham, a dashing English athlete who may have just broken my heart. Their reasons? Could be love. Could be a desire to watch me suffer. Or maybe those two are the same. Oh, yeah, and they’re half brothers. And I’m in love with both of them. So you see, thrill-seeking is just what I might need to sort this all out. If I don’t fall to my death first. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned, when it comes to love, you have to hang on tight. Maximum Dare is the STANDALONE contemporary romance novel from Vanessa Fewings, USA Today Bestselling Author of the The ICON Trilogy. Excerpt: That was my in - my chance to warn him.
None of his mates from his football team were here. The only reason I’d found out about this party was because I’d seen Morgan showing off about the event on Facebook.
Turning up like this probably seemed a bit stalkerish – but trust me, this was about saving a man who’d once saved me…back when all I’d known was grief. This was me looking out for Nick now, making sure he didn’t blow up his life for a girl who could never truly love him. It was easy to see why she’d hunted him down. Nick was a rising football star destined to follow in his dad’s iconic footsteps.
Why did he have to look so adorable with his tousled dark blond hair and expressive grey eyes? Chiseled features made him stand out even in this freakishly good-looking crowd, along with his athletic physique. I was now entering the hating phase…the I-can’t-bear-to- be-in-the-same-room phase. Yet Nick still made my insides do a flip-flop.
The last few weeks had been crushing in so many ways. The house we’d shared in Bermondsey was going to be sold. Moving out was inevitable because Nick was now living with Morgan in her Chelsea high-rise.
That girl was my opposite: Tall and blond and a first prize winner in the genetics lottery. I was a brunette with blue eyes who wore round-rimmed glasses – my look was more the girl next door. Not wild and sexy like Morgan, a woman who chased after endless fun and thrived on surprises.
Before she’d stolen my man, I’d followed Morgan’s make-up tutorials posted for and viewed by millions. She had two speeds – partying fashionista or poolside babe.
My speed was literally in reverse. There was no competing with a woman who was an expert at wooing men with her fake charm. And I’d never have the kind of money it would take to look like her. She indulged in cosmetic surgery to tweak imperceptible imperfections, giving her a flawless, airbrushed appearance that was hard to imitate.
Nick was destined to become another “Most Hated” post on Morgan’s Instagram page after she’d tired of him and moved on. It was inevitable. That was her thing.
I couldn’t let it happen to him.
A few minutes alone with Nick and I’d be able to show him the evidence I’d found on Morgan’s social media pages to prove she was bad news. He seemed oblivious to the long list of exes mentioned in her blog posts – whimsical fancies who formed the fodder for her emotional breakdowns and at the same time garnered her more followers.
But even knowing all of this, I still hesitated – guilt for stealing that envelope niggling at my conscience.
Don’t do it.
Don’t lower yourself to her standards.
Rummaging around in my handbag, I retrieved the envelope ready to slip it back into Morgan’s Prada purse.
Oh, no!
They were leaving.
Hand in hand, Nick and Morgan waved goodbye to the crowd like they were a celebrity couple. My worried glare tracked their movement along the other side of the window.
Having not quite used up my stalker quota for the evening, I decided what the hell and grabbed my parka from the barstool, pulling it on. I followed them out and was hit with a blast of freezing cold January wind that stung my face.
A limo was waiting for them. A chauffeur wearing a grey suit opened the back door in a formal gesture so that Morgan could elegantly slide into the back.
Nick stopped short of climbing in behind her to pin me with a look of disbelief. My humiliation rose with each faltering step and I forced a weak smile to reassure him.
It’s just me, your ex. The girl with no life who refuses to let you go.
I gathered the courage to sprint forward, holding out the envelope. “She dropped this—”
SLAM!
My glasses went flying as I collided with a rock-hard male body. My cheek squished against a woolen coat as my body fell heavily against his, a flood of pheromones rushing through me from his heady cologne. It reminded me of endless nights filled with sordid pleasures. At first I was reluctant to look up, afraid I might be disappointed after that incredible preview…
“Hi, there,” he said, his tone amused, his accent seductively foreign.
Dazed, I peered up at his face. He was too tall to kiss, this dark stranger with a three-day stubble. His masculine scent stirred a forbidden desire deep inside of me and I couldn’t speak for a moment. He was so damn gorgeous. His temples revealed just a hint of grey – making me think he was in his thirties. His hypnotic brown eyes crinkled with kindness as he gave me a dazzling smile.
“Thank you?” I finally said. The response had made sense in my head.
He must have found it humorous, as I saw his full, kissable lips quirk up in a smile – a smile that suddenly faded as he glanced over my shoulder.
Someone from behind me gripped my arms and dragged me away from him, forcing me to trot on unsteady heels towards an SUV. I had no choice but to move in that direction, feeling dizzy as the world whooshed by.
My handbag slipped off my shoulder and landed on the ground as that someone then shoved me against the front of the vehicle, pushing me forward until my cheek pressed against the hard metal of the car bonnet. I tried to push myself up, but my hands were suddenly drawn behind my back and I was held down, incapacitated – and vaguely aware that the handsome stranger was watching.
My cheeks ablaze, I cringed at the thought that Nick was seeing this, too.
I lifted my head a little and saw Morgan climb out of the limo. She whipped out her iPhone and pointed it in my direction.
The flash was blinding.

Excerpt
âSeriously? I thought youâd be all over that.â The woman was one of the most tenacious I knew. No way sheâd just roll over and hide her head in the sand. That wasnât Sabrina.
âYeah, I guess itâs taking me a minute to come to terms with the fact that my whole life has been a lie.â She swiped suspiciously at her eyes. But she couldnât be cryingâher voice sounded too flat and matter of fact. âI thought you of all people would get that.â
âWhatâs that supposed to mean?â
âOh come on. Youâve spent the better part of two years pushing everyone you know and love away from you because you survived when most of your crew didnât. It doesnât take a psychologist to see that you have a serious f*cking case of survivorâs guilt.â
âF*ck you.â She didnât know what the hell she was talking about.
âAlready have.â Her smile looked more like a snarl. âWouldnât mind having one last throw though.â
âYouâre nuts.â
âTakes one to know one.â
I snorted a laugh. Christ, how could she be so cute while being all angry and plastered?
âIâve heard that angry sex is hot. Maybe we should try it.â
I about swallowed my tongue when she said that. While I was busy sputtering, she leaned over and kissed me. Her hand cupped the side of my face as her lips covered mine.
Contrary to her angry words, she was just as soft and delicious as I remembered. She moaned deep in her throat, and I lost it. I took control of the kiss, moving my lips over hers, relearning everything I forgot I knew about her.
I pulled her onto me until she straddled me then pulled her face down to mine so I could kiss her some more. While I was busy kissing her, our hands roamed. I had my hands full of her amazing tits and was thinking about the best way to get her bra off. Because I loved her breasts. They were gorgeous and soft and just everything. I had to have more.
Sabrina mustâve thought the same since her hands raked down my back, her nails scoring my skin under my shirt.
I stiffened.
That used to be something I loved, but not anymore. I couldnât bear to even look at that part of me in the mirror, let alone touch it. I sure as hell didnât want her to feel my f*cked-up skin.
A prickling sensation swept over my scalp and my body heated in a way that had absolutely nothing to do with the alcohol or the gorgeous woman on my lap. I pulled back and gulped to keep the champagne down.
Sabrina slumped into me with a moan. âIs the room spinning, or is that just me? Or maybe itâs you.â
F*ck. I held her a little bit away from me, wary she was going to puke. She blinked blearily back at me and smiled.
I sighed. âYouâre wasted. We canât do this.â
What had I been thinking? Everything about this was so f*cking wrong.
But I still really wanted to. My dick throbbed impatiently under her round ass.
We hated each other. Or something. I couldnât remember exactly. Something else held claim to the majority of my blood flow.

“There was hate once. Hate born from dangerous attraction and fate’s cruel design.
There was love once. Love destined to kill us if we didn’t surrender to our war.”
Eleanor Grace suffers an awful affliction. She’s falling for a man who doesn’t deserve her affection or her forgiveness. But there is no cure, so she does something reckless, stupid—she throws safety to the sea and leaps into danger. Sully Sinclair suffers the same affliction. He’s falling for a goddess who will never earn his trust or his heart if he can help it. However, he wasn’t prepared for the lengths she’d go. How far she’d push to either stop such a bond or kill them both trying. An elixir given to a monster.
Hands down, Third a Kiss is the hottest book of this series. We have learned so much in this book of what we speculated happened in the first and second book. I couldn't get enough of Sully and Eleanor. Even though they both have their issues (mainly Sully) they fit like a glove, they are undeniably perfect for each other. I loved how Eleanor would break those damn walls that Sully had so high up that it was impossible for anyone to break, but Eleanor managed to break them. Their chemistry and attraction was so freaking hot that I felt like crawling into that book at times and actually seeing it in person. For as much as Sully tried and tried to get Eleanor to hate him, she just couldn't. She knew, she just knew that Sully was the man for her. She figured shit out that Sully never in a million years thought she would. Together Sully and Eleanor were like a tsunami waiting to happen! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED and couldn't get enough of Sully and Eleanor! ♦ ♦ ♦Enter the Release Day Giveaway HERE!♦ ♦ ♦♦ ♦ ♦Read the First Chapter HERE!♦ ♦ ♦
I was afraid of her in that moment.
Afraid of what she’d do to me.
Afraid of what she’d make me become.
Afraid that there was no turning back from this…regardless if I was ready or not.
Adrenaline rushed through my bloodstream as I locked my knees and closed my eyes.
I didn’t know why I was afraid. Why standing before Eleanor with my arm outstretched made me feel defenceless, exposed, and utterly at her mercy.
Seconds ticked past, making me bristle and my stupid heart double-beat.
I needed to see. To look at her. To know what the hell she was doing.
But the softest feather touched my hand, followed by another on my forearm.
I jerked.
Shit.
Heat.
Sizzling.
Crackling.
Potent and powerful and perfect.

My favorite books to read are anything taboo and super sick and twisted. I'm not sure I will ever write anything dark, but I would love to give it a shot oneday. I live in South Florida with my high school sweetheart and three kids. I grew up in Burlington, ON, Canada but made the move to South Florida in 2013 and definitely don't miss the snow. I'm not sure where this writing journey will take me but either way, I know it will be a fun new adventure, and I'm super excited about it.
