Remember that adorable little boy who ran around with a cape, cried and prayed hard for God to save his baby sisters and mother when she gave birth? Well, "C-man" Cohen is now grown up! This is his love story with Dani, Axel's daughter!

I have a new favorite author!!! I can sum up everything that will follow in this series review in that one, short sentence!

Last week I've had the absolute pleasure of reading Meghan March's BENEATH THIS MASK and the recently released BENEATH THIS INK. Here is my series review! But if you want the simple and short version: I absolutely love these books!

Publication Date: September 29, 2014
Book 1 of the Beneath Series

Synopsis:

He loves me, and he doesn't even know my real name.

The limelight that follows him could expose everything I'm hiding. But even knowing the risks, I can't force myself to stay away.

I'm going to break his heart, but mine will shatter right along with it.

Will we lose it all when I reveal what's beneath this mask?

The last time I went this gaga over a story and its author, I ended up following her career, looking forward to each upcoming book, and reveled in the successes and awards she and her books attained. That was Penelope Douglas, and before her, J.A. Redmerski. Now I've found a new, all-time favorite author: Meghan March!

This has been a want-to-read the moment I read the synopsis! It combines billionaire, boss, "the brother", and no-sex agreements, which we all know will not stay that way for long!

Okay, okay, the cover got my attention; but I did read the synopsis first before I even saw it. There's something about impossible story lines that attract us romance readers. Romeo and Juliet, Kili and Tauriel, student-teacher romances... for my part, it's because these stories are often intense and evoke strong emotions from me, and I love it when a book does that to me! So, partner stories like these with authors whom you know to be really good? Instant want-to-reads. :)

This is the second-to-the-last book in the series that I fell utterly in love with last year :) Ever since I read BULLY, the characters and this author's writing have stayed with me. I am so happy to have finally gotten to read Jax's story! Enjoy the excerpt and teasers, and don't forget to find more materials from and about the book by following the tour!

Book 3 in the Fall Away Series

Synopsis:

Jaxon is the guy she's supposed to avoid.

K.C. is the girl he won't let get away....

K. C. Carter has always followed the rules—until this year, when a mistake leaves her the talk of her college campus and her carefully arranged life comes crashing to a halt. Now she's stuck in her small hometown for the summer to complete her court-ordered community service, and to make matters worse, trouble is living right next door.

Jaxon Trent is the worst kind of temptation and exactly what K.C. was supposed to stay away from in high school. But he never forgot her. She was the one girl who wouldn't give him the time of day and the only one to ever say no. Fate has brought K.C. back into his life—except what he thought was a great twist of luck turns out to be too close for comfort. As the bond between them grows, he discovers that convincing K.C. to get out from her mother's shadow is hard, but revealing the darkest parts of his soul is nearly impossible.…

My Review: ★★★★★ 5 stars!

Four books in and Penelope Douglas is still on a roll! She is really very good at delivering the unexpected: unexpected twists, unexpected depth in characters you initially ruled out as vapid and shallow, unexpected bonds between unexpected people, and so forth. She has a certain method of writing where she keeps readers on their toes at all times. She makes it very hard to put down the book even to eat or take a bath (based on personal experience, yep!) because you just want, no need to know what happens next.

Holy banner, batman!! See why I was drawn to this story? This isn't the first student-teacher romance I've read, but it certainly is one of the few that I actually wanted to read. I am so excited to begin reading this book! I'll follow my review this week, but for the meantime here are some interesting things about BEAUTIFUL BURN straight from the author herself. :)

Release Date: November 21, 2014

My Review: ❤❤❤❤ 4 stars

It is no secret that I am a huge fan of Bella Jewel, especially her MC books. Just recently I finished reading ENSLAVED BY THE OCEAN, a modern pirate romance, and I also loved it! Can't wait for its sequel! Today though, we're celebrating the release of ANGUISH from her second MC series. Good news for Amazon US customers because it's only $0.99! Grab it while it's still on its release week promo price.

This is it!!! The final book in the beloved series by Harper Sloan. But it definitely is not the end. If you have read COOPER, and this one, LOCKE, you'll know why!

Book 5 of the Corps Security Series

Synopsis:

Darkness is the only thing I see. Ever since the day my life changed. The day that everything and everyone I held close to me ceased to exist. The day I lost it all and the demons of my past consumed my every waking moment.

I tried to keep others at arm's length. Tried not to let my darkness taint them. Ruin them. Harm them. And whether I want to admit it or not, as much as I wish I could keep them locked out, they refuse to leave. Refuse to let me suffer alone.

If I hadn't been so focused on keeping those demons from flying free, I wouldn't have missed how one perfect angel was able to sneak her way under my skin—refusing to let go. Making me want things I don't deserve.

She consumes me. Her beauty knows no end. The love she promises tempts me every time she's near. But that pure heart that makes her MY Emmy is the one thing I'm convinced I'll destroy if I ever let her close.

I'm a broken man. A broken man with too much darkness in his soul to ever let her light shine upon me. But even that doesn't stop me from craving her with every single breath in my body.

**This is the final book in the Corps Security series. This book is not suitable for younger readers. There is strong language, adult situations, and some violence.*
LOCKE definitely feels like the end of an era. Each of the men in the Corps Security team has finally met the woman he was meant to be with. Maddox Locke is the last man standing, but without his pigheadedness he could have had his HEA as early as two books earlier. But well, he wouldn't be the enigmatic, magnetic and intriguing man readers loved if he said yes to the prospect of love right away. Emmy just had to suffer first before she could get the one thing she wanted most in this world…

The moment I read the blurb for this book my curiosity was immediately piqued. It has that tantalizing, exciting aura of a forbidden and almost-taboo situation (they are STEP-siblings, not blood related) that blossoms into a sizzling romance. It also helped that one of my faves, Penelope Douglas, often recommended Penelope Ward. Then, there came the graphic teasers! They're very titillating, to say the least. Check them out below, PLUS!

Finally, STEPBROTHER DEAREST will be on sale for $2.99 today, during release day, only!


Synopsis:

You're not supposed to want the one who torments you. 

When my stepbrother, Elec, came to live with us my senior year, I wasn't prepared for how much of a jerk he'd be. 

I hated that he took it out on me because he didn't want to be here. 
I hated that he brought girls from our high school back to his room. 
But what I hated the most was the unwanted way my body reacted to him. 

At first, I thought all he had going for him were his rock-hard tattooed abs and chiseled face. Then, things started changing between us, and it all came to a head one night. 

Just as quickly as he'd come into my life, he was gone back to California. 

It had been years since I'd seen Elec. 

When tragedy struck our family, I'd have to face him again. 

And holy hell, the teenager who made me crazy was now a man that drove me insane.

I had a feeling my heart was about to get broken again.

Stepbrother Dearest is a standalone novel. 

**Contains graphic sexual content and harsh language. It is only appropriate for adult readers age 18+

Release Date: September 16, 2014

Synopsis:

Everything I ever learned about fairy-tales was a fucking lie…

Four years ago, my life was everything I wanted it to be: I had everything I wanted, everything I needed, in my best friend and newly wedded husband—Tyler.

Yet, hours after we said "I do," I lost him.

Forever...

The dreams we'd shared, the future we'd planned—all of our hopes and desires, were ripped away in mere seconds.

And now, four years later, my life still feels like a hopeless eternity.

So, I guess it's quite fitting that the last person I want to hear from is currently standing at my front door.

He wants to tell me the truth about that night, he wants to be my new knight in shining armor, but the thing is…

He was the best man...
