Welcome everyone!
Hey! A Stacking the Shelves post!! Thanks for STILL coming back and supporting me/the blog!!! YOU are AMAZING PEOPLE!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!! YOU KNOW THAT!!
You all know I have been doing some other things in life that have taken some time away from my blog a bit, in particular, swimming for physical therapy (the ONLY exercise I can do because of the rare neurological muscle disease I have, Stiff Person Syndrome, the rare disease that doctors are starting to think is VERY under-diagnosed!! I'm always trying to bring awareness to it and other rare diseases as well!! 
I've ALWAYS LOVED swimming, so this is more FUN than ANY other physical therapy I have EVER done in my life!!! I MUST admit that!) a huge PLUS from the swimming is losing weight! I have now SURPASSED my goal of losing 50lbs, and I've lost 54lbs!!!! I'm SO HAPPY!!!! 
I will also say I don't recognize MY OWN BODY at times!!! I see my legs, and I wonder WHO DO THOSE BELONG TO???? LOLOL!!! This is AMAZING!!!! I can't think of a time I've been MORE FIT!!! (Yes, I DO STILL get muscle spasms, so it's a delicate balance I have to do with everything, and takes a LOT of thought and dedication to get it right - then there are times that no matter WHAT I do that I STILL get muscle spasms!!!! Ugh!!! It's a disease with it's OWN mind ALL of the time!!) There are other things I've been up to as well, but I am LIVING and enjoying life the it's FULLEST NOW more so than I EVER have!!!
YES!!!! I AM STILL READING, how could "I" not??? LOL! The bummer part is I am SO BEHIND in writing reviews it's crazy!! I WILL catch up! Promise! I have so many books to read, too. The swimming takes EVERYTHING out of me at times, and sometimes I DO OVER-DO it!! 
I've also been fighting a few health issues as well, colds and other things, so it hasn't been easy, but I AM doing it!!!
About swimming - I swim 3-4 times per week, as much as my BODY WILL ALLOW ME TO. I added swimming the 50 Mile Club!! Yes! We sign up to promise to swim 50 miles in the lap pool and we have a year to do it, (just in case the spasms set in I thought that time-line was something I AM capable of doing!) I started swimming my miles last December, and I just hit mile #42! This means I only have 8 more miles to swim and I have hit 50! Yeah! I can ALMOST TOUCH that t-shirt!! LOL!!! Yes! We win a special t-shirt for accomplishing our goal!!! This is a goal we set for ourselves, and it's not set against any other people, you can't set it against other people because we are ALL DIFFERENT!! So this is our OWN SET OF GOALS FOR ONLY OURSELVES! (I must admit I think that is a much harder! I tend to push myself TOO HARD at times, and I have to rein myself back in and remind myself, or the muscle spasms will!! I have NO OTHER WEIGHT LOSS GOALS NOW. I am allowing MY BODY to set the tone it wants to lose weight OR NOT!! I am healthy, eating healthy, and doing whatever I can to STAY as healthy as I am able to with SPS!!
I will continue to keep you posted!!!
If you have read any GREAT books, please leave a comment below!! We'd LOVE to know!!! Tell us a little about them!! Please!!! ANY recommendations you have, WE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THEM!!!

The Night Mark by Tiffany Reisz - Rel. March 28th - MIRA (I JUST got this book this week, so I'm NOT behind on it! LOL!)


*An Almond for A Parrot by Wray Delaney - Rel. Feb 28th, 2017 - this book is amazing to read!!! The woman is in jail getting ready to have her trial because she killed someone, and this takes place, if I am remembering correctly, the 1700's. She decided to write the story of her life because she found out she is pregnant. Verified by a doctor that she is pregnant, she has time to write that life story down! She worked most of her life as a prostitute in a bar, and it is SO interesting!! I read this one and can't stop! Wow!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and I'm ONLY into the first part of it! I know the rest of this story has a LOT to tell!!


I Love You Today by Marcia Gloster Rel. April 18, 2017  Story Plant This book is ALSO VERY interesting! It's about the mob from the WOMEN'S points of view!!! WOW!!!


*The Cutaway by Christina Kovac Rel March 21, 2017  - I 'just' got this book, too.


*The Forgotten Girls by Owen Laukkanen - Rel. March 17, 2017  Penguin
Another AMAZING story! About a railroad track in a certain area where through the grapevine, it's KNOWN - do NOT travel the railways there alone. Many girls have done so, despite the warnings, and now ALL these girls are now gone. Now starts the investigation after a woman met a man and went back to his home with him. HE was NOT the danger. What she did was paid attention to the code he used as a key to get into his home. She saw his phone sitting on the table as he went into the other room to do something. Out of boredom, she picks his phone up and tried that same 4 digit code to get into his phone. It works! She looks at his photos until she comes to one particular photograph, and she starts screaming and doesn't stop until the police arrive! In the photo behind the man she just went back to his house with, she sees a dead body just behind him in the photo. She starts screaming and never stops until the police get there. This opens a HUGE investigation, and come to find out, MANY, MANY MISSING GIRLS' BODIES ARE FOUND THERE . . . thus starts a HUGE investigation! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED just from the first several chapters!!

All the Best People by Sonja Yoerg  Rel May 2, 2017  Berkley
Sonja Yoerg is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE AUTHORS!!! She started out with the birth of the ebook! I've known her a long time now, and she TRULY is a wonderful person, someone I call a dear friend! I am SO looking forward to diving into this NEW book of hers! First I have to finish reading It Happens All the Time, above, then I am going to read this book IMMEDIATELY!!! Sonja has written a variety of fiction books, and each book is so different from the other, I find it refreshing! She always has every little detail written to perfection, and keeps you glued to her writing. She is one author who does not let one little detail slip by! Her previous books she has written should be read as well! You'll be impressed with this author! You'll be looking forward to each new book she writes! I say to simply enjoy the stories as she writes them! Set some time aside to be able to really dig into her work! You'll LOVE it!
This book will examine a woman who starts losing touch with reality. Mental issues start to cloud her judgement, and it is the early 1970's as this is happening. Psychological issues in women at that time were simply to call women crazy. So MUCH has changed since then, for the better, thankfully! You can expect a full and very satisfying read with this or ANY book Sonja Yoerg has written! Enjoy this book to it's fullest!!

#Book #Spotlight The Beast and the Sibyl, A Prydain Novel by AJ Adams

The Beast and the Sibyl, A Prydain Novel

by AJ Adams


*•.¸(`*•.¸(`*•IT’S LIVE•*´)¸.•*´)¸.•*´






the beast.jpg


The Beasts of Prydain are back! He’s a vicious Beast, violent and dangerous. Bliss knows she ought to walk away. After all, she has a dark and dangerous secret to preserve. When she can’t leave him to burn, her rescue tumbles them both into danger, adventure and romance.



Self-standing PNR novel! Here's the universal buy link for The Beast and The Sibyl




Universal Buy Link:


Excerpt:


“We caught a Beast! A real live poxy Beast!”
Bastards. Calling us beasts while they cheat, steal, and lie. I got kicked in the ribs, a whip laid about my shoulders, and all the time they were screaming.
“Hang him!”
“Beat him!”
“Kill the Beast!”
Then I saw her. She was standing there, staring right into my eyes. For a moment, I thought I was looking at a Valkyrie, one of Valhalla’s shield maidens. She had hair the colour of ice, and eyes as blue as the sky. Tall, willowy, and silent, she looked unworldly. There was a wolf at her side, too.
I blinked, expecting her to vanish, but it wasn’t a vision. She was real. The knowledge hit me with a punch that sucked the breath out of me. She was one of us, a Skraeling of Thule.
She leaned on the wolf, controlling it with a touch of her hand. “Lady Freyja always advises counsel before action.”
A Skraeling woman who invoked our goddess yet who was a traitor. I was filled with sudden hate, poisoned by the thought of one of our own people contaminated by foul betrayal.
If the will were a weapon, she would have fallen on the spot. Instead, the world blurred again. I think I passed out for a few moments because when I opened my eyes, he was there. The Patriarch. A cheat, a liar and all-round scum bucket
He certainly hates us Skraeling. “Glorious Ullr will bring us wise counsel. And tomorrow we will flog the Beast to cleanse him of his sins, and then we will burn him alive!”


He’s a vicious Beast, violent and dangerous. Bliss knows she ought to walk away. After all, she has a dark and dangerous secret to preserve. When she can’t leave him to burn, her rescue tumbles them both into danger, adventure and romance.

#NEW RELEASE #NEW #REVIEW "Never Let You Go" by Chevy Stevens


Description:
Eleven years ago, Lindsey Nash escaped into the night with her young daughter and left an abusive relationship. Her ex-husband was sent to jail and she started over with a new life. Now, Lindsey is older and wiser, with a teenage daughter who needs her more than ever. When her ex-husband is finally released, Lindsey believes she’s cut all ties. But she gets the sense that someone is watching her. Her new boyfriend is threatened. Her home is invaded, and her daughter is shadowed. Lindsey is convinced it’s her ex-husband, even though he claims he’s a different person. But can he really change? Is the one who wants her dead closer to home than she thought?


Chevy Stevens targets her readership with a novel that hits all the notes they come to expect from her—and ratchets up the stakes even more in a novel that explores the darkest heart of love and obsession.
My Take:
5 Stars!!!
Lyndsey marries Andrew, a wonderful husband, in the beginning. Their marriage was blissful, had a daughter, Sophie, but as time goes on, Andrew starts to become controlling, abusive, and does just horrible things to poor Lyndsey, and she is always having to play cover-up so her daughter, Sophie, doesn’t end up knowing or seeing what has happened because a child should NEVER be on the receiving end of things that one adult might do to another to cause spite or harm to another adult, so Lyndsey is always having to protect Sophie and not let her catch onto what has happened or is happening, and this isn’t just in the beginning of the book, but Lyndsey is always protecting her daughter, Sophie, all through this story, or so she thinks she is even as her daughter grows older.
As Lyndsey gets the nerve up to leave Andrew, as they are doing so he manages to do something that lands him in prison for the next decade. That works out well for Lyndsey and her daughter, but not so good when we find out that her daughter, Sophie, has been in contact and is staying in contact with her father while he was in prison and even after he gets out of prison. Sophie never confides this in her mother. Andrew knows where they live, but Lyndsey knows nothing about ANY of this! Things happen, Lyndsey starts to question the little things that happen, such as losing her keys, and then they pop up in a similar to the way that Andrew used to do to her. She really does think he is after her. There are a number of things that happen to make Lyndsey think Andrew is after her again. This book is constantly keeping us wondering who or what is going to happen next! There is also a HUGE twist to this story that occurs as if often the case with Chevy Stevens! I’m not one to give away the secrets of the book, so if you want to know more about this one, I’m leaving it to you to read and find out what happens, but if you love sitting on the edge of your seat, waiting in anticipation about what is going to happen next, and you can't turn the pages fast enough, then THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! I highly recommend reading this NEW release! This author is brilliant the way she manages to keep our undivided attention on this story the entire time we are reading it, and our hearts pumping with adrenaline, wondering what’s going to happen next! I had a hard time putting this book down when I had to, as is always the case with this author!
This is another outright brilliant domestic psychological thriller that Chevy Stevens pulls off again! This is one author you can count on to give you the thrill ride of a lifetime from every book she writes! Enjoy!!
ALL thanks to St Martin’s Press for letting me read and write a review about this book!

The Stage by Jenna Galicki


JennaGalicki.jpg

Synopsis:

Even rock stars get star-struck. Meeting heavy metal icon Brandon Bullet was a dream come true for Tommy Blade. When Immortal Angel decides to add Tommy’s rock star idol as a guest singer to their set at the Get Rocked! festival, sparks fly and egos collide.

Angel Garcia, Immortal Angel’s flashy frontman, isn’t happy about sharing the spotlight or Tommy’s attention. That all changes once Angel has a mind-blowing rehearsal with the charismatic lead singer of Bulletproof.

The sexual chemistry on stage between Angel and Brandon is something Tommy never counted on. Now he’s forced to watch his husband and his idol strut on stage together and share a connection that, up until now, only he and Angel shared. And the guest appearance by Tommy’s rock star idol just lost most of its appeal. Commissioned to design custom-made rock and roll attire, even Tommy’s wife Jessi gets one-on-one time with Brandon Bullet.

Taking a back seat wasn’t on the agenda. Add Angel and Brandon’s secret rehearsals together, and Tommy is left in the shadows wondering exactly what’s going on between the two. Like everything else in Tommy’s life, it all unfolds on stage.

Epilogue by Brandon Bullet of Bulletproof.

Beating Hearts by Jade C. Jamison

JadeCJamison.jpg

Synopsis:

If you thought Las Vegas was hot…

Brandon Bennett, inexperienced young drummer for a famous rock band, is about to play his first festival…but before that he needs to find out who’s stalking him. And, when he does, things just might get too hot to handle…


Something Wicked by Theresa Hissong


Theresa Hissong.jpg

Synopsis:

Aiden Hawke, the lead singer for the rock band Something Wicked, was used to raising hell and partying every night with his all-male band. When their bassist quit right before the beginning of their tour, saying he needed to go back to a normal life, the band hired on a female to take his place.


Kit Ellis knew she was stepping into a predominately male industry when she signed on with Something Wicked. There weren’t that many female bassist in the business, but the gutsy woman knew she could run with the big dogs. Her dream had come true when she landed a spot as the newest band member for Something Wicked, but there was one problem she had not anticipated. Aiden Hawke ignited something inside her, and with each day spent together, their heated glances and casual flirting sent her hormones straight into the danger zone.


One steamy night at the Get Rocked Festival in Las Vegas, Aiden and Kit find themselves giving in to their need for each other. Can the two of them survive when Kit’s family calls with news of trouble at home, or will Kit give up her dream after she realizes that she crossed the line by falling for the lead singer of Something Wicked?


Rock Casualty by Lisa Gillis

LisaGillis.jpg
Synopsis:

With this ring… or not?

June Loren and her metal-music-god have an open relationship. No drama. No complications. That is, until down on one knee, he slides a ring on her finger and suddenly declares himself monogamous. Convinced there's no way this man-whore musician who spends two-hundred-plus days on the road is faithful husband material, she jets to Vegas… the perfect venue to escape her life and her wedding the next day.

After getting kicked out of his band and a stint in rehab, one-time rock star Creighton Stone needs more than a little luck to get his life back on track. A reunion gig at the Get Rocked Vegas Festival is an opportunity to redeem himself. But when he’s sidetracked by an intriguing woman at the blackjack table, his world flips upside down… again.
Hard liquor and heavy partying lead to waking with more than a hangover. The gleaming rings on their fingers suggest Creighton and June had more fun than a one-night stand.

Everyone knows "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas."

But...What happened in Vegas?


Jagged Dawn by Lashell Collins

But when the pressures of planning a Vegas wedding and the bachelor party blowout from hell start to weigh on him, Benji begins to wonder if a real future with Fae is something he’s even capable of having.

Mackenzie Winters is excited that they will have an entire weekend to explore Las Vegas and each other. She is anxious about their upcoming wedding, so she needs the escape.

MariaBernard.jpg

Synopsis:

Alice Electra is an amazing guitarist on the run. Fate leads her to Southern Jackass, Jay's struggling rock band. She is offered a chance to shine.

Refrain & Reprise by Sadie Grubor

SadieGruber.jpg

Synopsis:

Known for his outlandish and often law breaking onstage performances, the fans of Vehicle of Destruction have expectations from America's number one bad boy of rock. Zarek Sisko hates to disappoint, but something's not the same. Something changed him. That something being her.
The world of opera is surprisingly cutthroat and Gemma Harper, the latest diva in demand, knows this all too well. She's a natural commanding an operatic performance with minimal training, but apparently, pink hair, facial piercings, and being covered in tattoos negates her talent in most professional's eyes. Gemma's fought her entire life to get what she wants and now that she's here, there's no backing down. She's no quitter… well, almost. She quit on him.
Once upon a time, two people from different worlds collided and it was everything they never expected. Until it wasn't and one walked away.

Pretending you don't know someone is exhausting. Acting like someone means absolutely nothing to you isn't easy. Especially when fate keeps throwing them back in your life.
One Rocker. One Diva. One weekend to Get Rocked in Vegas!





Rocking Vegas by Kacey Hamford



KaceyHamford.jpg

Synopsis:

With the guys from ‘Flix’ getting ready to head home to the U.K they didn’t realise that this final weekend away was going to change everything for guitarist Frank.
Stepping on to the bus and seeing him there left him reeling… he had no idea how different his life would be after this weekend.

He should have known that what happens in Vegas, never stays in Vegas…
This is an M/M story and is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18, due to strong language and sexual references.

Vegas Style by Toni Kenyon


ToniKenyon.jpg

Synopsis:

Sam MacAvoy’s a British rocker who has charted consistently at no.1 all over Europe since following in his brother, Julian’s footsteps. Now Sam’s been invited to Vegas to debut at the Get Rocked! In Vegas Festival and he’s brought his red hot band, Style Strike with him.


Ashley Jacobs can’t stand musicians, or over-the-top egotistical men. Somehow she finds herself in amongst dozens of them when she agrees—against her better judgment—to take a three day summer job at the Festival.


Paul Gray, Style Strike’s bass player and the star of his own social media channel, has women falling at his feet. What he can’t quite understand is why his charm isn’t working on the attractive and curvaceous, Ashley. She’s not interested in his social media stardom, nor does she care that he could have any woman he wants at the rock festival.


Or does she?


Guitar God by Lindy S. Hudis


LindySHudis.jpg

Synopsis:

Diego Ortega: The wild, sexy rock guitar legend with the raunchy strut, long onyx hair and dazzling soulful eyes. His renowned rock band, Medieval Steel, will be performing at the celebrated Get Rocked Music Festival in Las Vegas!


Diego has it all! A life in the fast lane, parties, booze, drugs, power and sex. However, the bright lights can't erase the price he paid on the raw, lonely road to the top. Diego has rocketed to fame as his heart is starving.


His one and only soulmate, Susan, who has been his constant companion and true love, will become a permanent fixture in his life. Unbeknownst to her, he plans to present her with a Cartier diamond engagement ring.


Fates collide. As the music blasts to a climax, one deranged and obsessed fan and her secret, rage filled vendetta will trap each and every one of them in its sudden, murderous heat.

Jade C. Jamison

For years, Jade C. Jamison tried really hard to write what she thought was more "literary" fiction, but she found herself compelled to write what you read by her today--sometimes gritty, raw, realistic stories and other times humorous, light tales--but most of the stories she writes revolve around relationships and characters finding their way through life. While she doesn't confine herself to just one genre, nor is there a nice neat label for what she writes, most of her work could be called erotic romance. Her main writing passions include rock star romance, romantic comedy, and romantic suspense. She lives in Colorado with her husband and four children.

Lashell Collins

Lashell Collins is an American author of romantic suspense, paranormal romance and rockstar romance. She walks to the beat of her own drum, but that’s okay ’cause she’s got a pretty good sense of rhythm. Basically, she’s a geeky, quirky, laid-back, rocker-loving kinda girl who’s married to a retired cop, motorcycle-riding, bad-boy alpha all her own, and she likes to write about sexy police officers, werewolves and rockstars, or some inventive combination of the three!

When she’s not busy tapping away on her laptop and living vicariously through her characters, she can usually be found watching Grimm, rocking out to Slash ft. Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators, stuffing her face full of Chinese food, or riding on the back of her husband’s Harley-Davidson. Between her book characters and the ones she knows in real life, her plate stays pretty full. But she loves to hear from readers, so give her a shout sometime!

Bella Jeanisse

Bella Jeanisse lives for rock music. Addicted to concerts, Avenged Sevenfold, fictional rockers, and blasting music in the car, she can’t get enough. After her father turned her on to Queen, there was no going back. Of course, it didn’t stop there. Playing guitar became a pastime, which didn’t turn into a career… until she started to pen her fantasies and publish them.
Originally from Brooklyn, New York City, she grew up with access to clubs like L’Amour and CBGBs, hung out in Greenwich Village, as well as had plenty of friends in bands. No wonder rockers stayed on her mind. Bringing her ideas to life was a long time coming.
She is now living near Tampa, FL with 3 kids and 2 grandkids, as a single mom. Her family supports her writing even when it seems to take up more time than they feel is necessary. Can’t stop the muse, ya know! Besides erotic rock star romances, Bella also writes about wild bikers, hot college men and more.

Sadie Gruber

I'm a self-professed, foul-mouthed, book nerd who seeks world domination with her sinister side kick, evil minions, fatal depth dwelling feline, hell hound, and villainous quadruped lagomorph.

Oh-Kay, so in reality...I'm a foul mouthed, wife, mother of two children, a cat who refuse to leave our basement, a fluffy white ankle biter named Puff, and an over eating bunny rabbit, who happens to spend the little spare time available in a day writing and reading. 

We are still seeking world domination - No Seriously, we are.

Kacey Hamford

Kacey Hamford is a pen name for me (Kelly). I am in my thirties and started this journey in 2014, I love to read romance books about rockstars, so thought I would have a go at writing one myself. I really enjoyed it and got a boost of confidence once my books started selling. 

I have gone on to write a young adult series, set in a college. The series is still on going. 

I also have an MC series, it was something different for me to write and I enjoyed it so much, especially when I got readers telling me they would love to read books about the sub characters. 


I work full time as a dog groomer, I love to read and my friends and family are very important to me. They are all so supportive of my writing career and encourage me to carry on.
