TORN

Ryan Blake is off limits.
She is everything I shouldn't want, but do.
She's my best friend's sister, so feelings for her are out of the question. Her passion and fire trigger a spark in the dark hollows of my heart.
Now she's turning eighteen, and my resolve is starting to wear thin.
I know I don’t deserve her, but I can't walk away.
No matter how my heart aches for her, I know I'll tear her heart in two.



TATTERED

Maverick Night is bad news.
He made me want things I knew I shouldn't but did.
Now my brother's best friend is back, but we are both different people. Time changed us.
I crave the way my heart beat when he used to look at me, how it felt to be in his arms.
Nothing good will come from opening myself up to him.
I just hope my tattered heart can take it if he walks away again.

To celebrate, Brooke has a $15 Amazon Gift Card up for grabs.

Dr. Hottie by Vivian Wood



Dr. Hottie


Vivian Wood





Contemporary Romance






I’m not a big believer in romance. I’m certainly not the type of woman to get drunk, meet a guy, and go to friggin Reno later that night to get married.

But Dr. Hottie himself, AKA Jack Stratton, changed all that. Even if it was all a lie.

Okay, so our relationship is as fake as a bad spray tan. It’s all to show up our mutual exes, make them realize how much they miss us. Can I help it if he’s so ridiculously handsome that simply being near him makes me blush? And when he smiles at me…

Maybe I should’ve nicknamed him Dr. Panty Dropper.

And I admit, part of me is head-over-heels in love with him. How can I not be when he keeps telling me we have to spend time together? We have to keep up the charade. We have to kiss in private so it looks good when we do it for show.


When my ex finally gets the message a month after our “wedding”, I’m left with two options. Go back to the man who the whole town says is right for me… or gather all my courage and strike off in a new direction. A direction that includes a new future that Jack and I make, together.







To celebrate and GET THE WORD OUT, Vivian is giving away a #SIGNED copy of Dr. Hottie, a Vivian Wood tote, a Vivian Wood cup, a salty candle, a beanie tab, and a penis-shaped bath bomb!

“This is a smoking hot story filled with guilt, anger, misunderstandings but so much passion - I just loved it!” ~ Jenn, Amazon.

“Lots of hot sex and a happily ever after is the trademark of a good Vivian Wood story. With no cliffhanger, I strongly recommend you one click for this delightful story.” ~ ResaEdits, Amazon.


He felt like kissing her. She smelled of flowers every time he got close. The rest of the morning unfolded with plenty of close calls. Once, in the dark zone of the cavern where daylight could never reach, he almost couldn’t stop himself. He came close, crouched down to avoid the low overhang. Addy didn’t need to duck at all. Instead, she looked up at him, her chin tilted upward and those plush lips nearly begged him to close the distance between them. 

Yet he resisted. This was a stupid idea, he realized as they made their way through the tightest quarters of the cavern. It required them to be on hands and knees. Addy moved ahead of him, her heart-shaped ass punctuated by the outline of the belt. He steadied his breath but couldn’t look away. It took all his willpower not to grasp that belt, pull her back to him, rip off her clothes and sink his hardness deep inside her. With every inch she moved forward on hands and knees, he grew harder. As they cleared the tunnel, she glanced back at him over her shoulder. Only his headlight illuminated her face. Ask me to take you, right here, he thought. But she didn’t. She only smiled and stood up, brushing her knees with her fingertips. 

“Oh, wow,” she said. “What’s that called?” Addy pulled out her own flashlight to illuminate the swirling column. 

“Helictite,” he said. “They’re amazing, aren’t they?” He prayed she wouldn’t shine the light down and see his raging hard-on. Jack had never been so thankful for the darkness. 

“Thank you for bringing me here,” she said quietly. She reached for his hand and wove her fingers through his easily. It should have been romantic, but it was beyond that. Jack had seen many things in his life, incredible things, but with Addy he saw them with fresh eyes—her eyes. 

Had he come alone or with anyone else, he would have simply ticked it off as another helictite featured in one of his many adventures. She made it different, special. She showed him the wonders right in front of him. He let her lead the way and choose the next fork. As he watched her ass sashay in front of him and her hips swing side to side, he tried to figure it out. He’d never obsessed about a girl so much in his life. But she’s not just any girl, is she? All the others had basically thrown themselves at him. Even Rosalie. He was used to all the games they tried, whether they were flirty or aloof. The ones like Rosalie who were skilled at playing hard to get were still easy to read. Rosalie had slept with him on the third date and swore she’d never done anything like that before. But not Addy. She wasn’t like any of them. It was refreshing, and strange, especially after he’d been awarded his MD title. 

The girls came easily enough before that, but afterward? Even a hint that he was a doctor made the most exquisite of women flock to him. Why was Addy immune to it? If anything, she seemed to be the one trying to keep everything light and breezy. 

Fuck. If this is a game, she’s better at it than I am. Had he met his match? 


Vivian likes to write about troubled, deeply flawed alpha males and the fiery, kick-ass women who bring them to their knees. 

Vivian's lasting motto in romance is a quote from a favorite song: "Soulmates never die."

Timeless Ever After Anthology


Timeless Ever After ~ Anthology

Multi-Author

Anthology

Timeless was created to raise funds for Candace's Cause ~ a foundation started to honor the memory of Candace Metten and to help raise funds for research, treatment and a cure for DIPG (Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma). 

At only six years old, Candace lost her battle with cancer, but because of her love of princesses, the idea behind Timeless Ever After was created.



Sweet. Sensual. Dark.

Words which only scratch the surface of what lies between the pages of the Timeless Ever After Anthology.

Fifteen titillating novellas, each inspired by a beloved fairy tale, describing just what would happen if the originals weren’t so… pure. Tales not meant for the faint of heart. Where lusts are fulfilled, love is found, and sin lurks behind every corner. Tales not meant for children…

A big bad biker (Lil’ Red), an undercover operative (Ella Uncovered), and a lonely veterinarian (Raising the Wild) are made whole, just as family lies (Tangled in You), forbidden love (Hush), and sadistic stepmothers (Red as Blood), threaten to tear other lives apart. The spoiled prince (Emerald Runs Deep) and spoiled little brat (Satin & Sin), have a change of heart while an alien king stops at nothing to collect his due (Wickedly Golden). One princess is rigorously tested (A Princess for Hans), one tortured by sleep (Upon A Dream), and another finds herself in a desperate battle for her warrior (Tala).

Gypsies (A Beautiful Dream), slaves (Frostbitten), broken vibrators (Sweeter Things)… Oh my!

Worlds are shattered, secrets uncovered, lives irrevocably altered from one tale to the next, as each set of characters find their own happily ever afters.

Can fifteen different authors each replace your favorite fairy tales with one of their own?

Only once upon a time will tell…

The Curse by H.L. Girton

 The Curse ~  H.L Girton


YA | Paranormal



KL Donn


Genesis Berkley’s place in this world is more confusing now than ever. After struggling for months to bring her aunt’s murderer to justice, she feels lost in the turmoil that his death has solved nothing. To make matters worse, the love of her life has gone, leaving in shame. Disappointment sets in and Genesis must find her way back to herself. Only the acceptance of who she must become will set her free.

Liam Volkov is on the run. He has become the monster that Genesis fears they all are. The love and trust between them is broken. The only way to free himself from the agony of becoming someone he hates is to face the consequences of his actions. He must cleanse himself for redemption.

With the prophecy looming over them, they find themselves at a crossroad. Can they learn to accept their fate and find their way back to one another or will their path lead to destruction? 




I heard the whistle of the metal when it was unsheathed from its case. The blade vibrated quickly from the slick movement. I felt the sharp point when the young man, his face hidden by the shadows, pressed it into my cheek. It sliced my face open with little pressure. It was well kept and sharp. So sharp it could easily cut through bone.

The blade was pressed against my neck, ready to slice it open and drain out every drop of my blood. I closed my eyes and tears spilled out. This was it. My life would end at their mercy to finally give me the death that I deserved. I thought of the night I first saw her. Genesis. My love. Seeing the terror on her face as she fled for her life broke my heart. I was glad I made the choice to step in and defend her then. It was no different with Thomas, and if dying at their hands meant she lived for eternity because of that one choice, then I served my purpose.

I remembered the way her lips had felt the first time I had kissed her. I had taken away her heartache, if only for a moment. It was blissful. Her kiss was as sweet as honey. I would never get to kiss those gentle lips again. Every one of my choices were worth it to have had her love for the time I did. Every argument, every kiss, every stolen touch, all of it worth it. I would do it all again for her if it meant that she would live on.

I felt the sharp edge cut slowly into my skin. The blood trickled down my throat as the sharp point found the vein in my neck that it was looking for. I was ready. Death had finally found me.



The Accalia (The Accalia Series Book 1)

After traveling the country with her aunt, Genesis Berkley finally feels like she is home. Settling in Tillamook, Oregon, she begins a new life and everything seems to be going smoothly. That is, until she runs into a mysterious young man.

The feelings that he awakens are unsettling, and soon, her simple, peaceful world shatters. Lies and secrets are revealed, and danger lurks in every corner.

Now, Genesis must discover if she is strong enough to fulfill her destiny. Will she learn to accept the truth before it is too late?
