Blurb

Two and a half years ago, we made a plan—had our life all mapped out—knew where we were going and how we were getting there.

It was the four of us against the world and we were so close to having everything we wanted.

But life had other plans for us.

Now, rodeo has become Chase's primary focus, and he leaves our girls and me home while he follows his dreams week in, and week out.

We've lost so much already. I'm afraid if he doesn't come back to us soon, resentment will set in and our marriage will fail.

Do we have what it takes to make it through one more season? Or will this be the end of our dreams? And our marriage?

Eight seconds...

That's all it takes to change our lives forever.

Excerpt

“I won, you realize that, right?”
“Yes, cocky one, I do. What’s your point?” she retorts, clearly not realizing where I’m going with this.
“I won, therefore you arrived last…”
Realization flashes across her features and she looks up at me, where I’m still perched atop Thor, with her hand providing shade over her eyes and her lips slightly parted. “You can’t be serious. Right now?”
“Mhmm, right now.” I nod my head and fold my hands over the horn of Thor’s saddle. “I need to see you gloriously naked and getting into the water.”
“You really are serious.” She shakes her head and starts to pull her hair back. “You can tell me you’re joking anytime.”
“Allie, I’m serious as a heart attack. You agreed, last one here is the first to skinny-dip. And I want to watch every second of you doing exactly that.”
“My God, you are so full of yourself. I suppose you’re going to stay there on top of Thor, like you’re the ruler of the lands?”
My only answer is to smile at her.
“Impossible. You’re impossible.” She pulls the band off her wrist and secures her hair into a messy pile above her head then she works her boots off with a huff. “How am I supposed to dry off?”
“I brought two blankets, we can share one so you can use the other to dry yourself.”
“And what are you going to—you know what—never mind.” She steps up in front of Thor and slides her hand over his face. “You’re a traitor, Thor. You should’ve lost for me.”
She makes me laugh loudly. “He knows whose horse he is. Now, quit stalling”

Author Bio


I was born and raised about twenty minutes north of Denver, Colorado where school and soccer were always my primary focus growing up. Though, I read and wrote as often as humanly possible, too. I’ve always loved doing both, and my love for words has only grown since my childhood.

I stayed local for college and majored in Biology, with every intention of going to medical school. That never panned out. I realized right before I took the MCAT that what I wanted most out of life was to have a family of my own one day, and to be able to write a book. It was then that I decided that being a doctor wouldn't have left much time to accomplish either of those things.

Since then, I've done child care, and tried to figure out where to go next, while also finally working on my own stories that I can share with the world.

And I hope that the amazing people that give me a chance fall as in love with my characters as I have.

Exclusive Excerpt:

I approached Paul at the helm. He handed me a beer and gave me a sly half smile. “Thought you were leaving?” His half smile morphed into a full-blown shit- eating grin. “Yeah, me too.” I knocked back half the beer in two large gulps. “She got you, didn’t she?” “Yeah,” I grinned and nodded, “she did.” Paul guffawed. “I knew it. I told Nadine when we met you two, ‘That boy doesn’t know what hit him!’” He chuckled once more and clinked our bottles together. “She’ll take good care of you. That’s a good woman. I can tell.” “The best,” I said. “Well, I don’t know about the best. You have met my wife?” He grinned again, and we both laughed. “So how did you and Nadine meet?” Paul grinned and took another sip of his beer. “I used to work with her brother down at the shipyard. She was the most beautiful looking girl I’d ever seen, but she was a skinny little thing back then and mean as a snake. She did not fancy me. Every day when she would drop her brother off at work I would say, ‘Good Morning, Nadine,’ and she would roll her eyes and drive away. One day, her brother forgot his lunch, and she came to drop it off. Now, I never ate much for lunch, a piece of chicken between two slices of bread with some pepper sauce. She took one look at my pitiful lunch, screwed her face up and walked away. The next day, her brother gave me a bag.” Paul’s face spread into a wide grin. “Inside was a container with peas and rice, curried goat and a slice of coconut bread. Best meal I’ve ever had.” He laughed. “So, she talked to you after that?” “No,” Paul laughed as if I’d made the most absurd suggestion,” but,” He held up an index finger and wagged it at me. “That’s when I knew I had a chance.” We laughed again. “So, I know what happens when you cross a Bajan woman. What happens when you try to leave one?” “I don’t know, man,” Paul shrugged and took another sip of his beer, “I’ve never tried.”

Exclusive Excerpt:

When Emma and Rowek were alone again, her gaze snapped back to his. He watched her, his lips tugging to the side. His eyes were brighter, the golden hue shining through. Like a flame doused with gasoline. “What’s one thing you’d like to know about me?” Emma thought for a moment. “What would happen if I touched you again.” His expression burned hotter as a wicked grin spread his lips. The invisible cord that drew her to him pulled tight, and she surrendered to it. A tendril of heat licked through her. Any fear or hesitation on her part was gone. She slid her hand across the table, lightly brushing her finger over the top of his hand. A spark crackled above their skin. She started, but she didn’t withdraw her hand. Rowek didn’t seem at all surprised, he just watched her. Her fingertips trailed up the back of his hand, and his eyes flared in response. Gently, as if trying not to startle her, his hand grabbed hers. A jolt went through her, but it wasn’t power. It was a heady sensation to be touched by him. She let him pull her to her feet. Like she was in a trance, she let him guide her. His hands cupped her hips, and her heart galloped wildly. With little effort, he tugged her down onto him, her dress curling up her thighs as she straddled his lap. A fire stirred inside, every inch of her aware. Her hands ran up his chest, under the dark suit jacket. She could feel the toned muscle hidden beneath as her fingers brushed up to his tie and pulled it loose. “What is your tattoo of?” Her voice was like silk. “I’d show you all of it, but I’d have to take my shirt off.” His hot breath tickled her neck. She worked the first button open as his lips brushed against her skin, setting her on fire. Her fingers stilled, eyes fluttered closed, letting his touch consume her. Kisses trailed up her neck, and she shivered. His lips touched her jaw bone with feather-light delicacy. “Is it a symbol?” she rasped, fighting to remain in control. He made a noise in the back of his throat that sounded almost feral. Like he didn’t want to stop kissing her. “Yes,” he replied, voice gruff. Then he kissed her.

Blood Ties by P. D. Baldwin

Blood Ties by P. D. Baldwin
Published May 31, 2019 by Dark Half Productions
Urban Fiction/Black Mafia

Synopsis:

Legacy. For some people it’s merely a word but for Phineas Johnson and his brothers, building a legacy means hard work and sacrifices today so that their families can reap the benefits tomorrow. “Family over everything” is the Johnson Family’s mantra, one that Phineas lived and breathed until the day he died.

His sons, Shane and Cedric are supposed to carry on that legacy but instead, they become locked in a bitter war to control it. One son wants Phineas to be remembered as a loving father, devoted husband, and a philanthropist while the other wants him to be remembered as a ruthless gangster who ruled with an iron fist.

In the midst of this war, the family is forced to choose sides and in doing so opens a Pandora’s Box of lies and secrets that will destroy the very foundation the Johnson Family is built on.

Title: Beyond Her Desire
Series: Beyond Surrender #3
Author: Nicky F. Grant
Genre: Contemporary Romance/BDSM
 Release Date: May 30, 2019



Blurb

With his ring, I wed.
With his collar, I obey.

By my own free will, I surrendered my life to my Master. I vowed to honor him through my thoughts, words, and actions. We were linked by love and trust. He would never forsake me. 
He owned me.

When tragedy came, his control carried us through. But cracks showed in my surrender, and as we were one, the cracks slowly broke him. Our promises bound us, but not even my Master’s power could keep us tied together.

Sharing is a dangerous game and we may not survive.
