Carina Painter lives a life she created in between the pages of her bestselling novel. At least, that’s what she outwardly portrays. A heart-rending childhood followed by an abusive engagement leaves her broken in all ways possible. A chance encounter provides the fork in the road she so desperately desires. 

Navy SEAL Smith Eppington is fighting the war of his lifetime. One that isn’t fought with weapons and highly sought intelligence. It’s a battle to remember his past. The accident that scarred seventy five percent of his body, and stole the life of his best friend also seized parts and pieces of his memory. When an author asks to interview him for a fiction novel, he’s ready to pour his heart out no matter the cost. 

The friendship that blossoms between Smith and Carina is something extraordinary. It’s a living, breathing love story about finding yourself, change that is out of your control, grasping what you can, and letting go of everything else. 

In a twist of kismet, remembering could destroy everything, but fiction may be what saves the day. A friendship built on new truths and a relationship torn apart by old lies collide in a poignant novel by International Bestselling Author, Rachel Robinson.



About the Author


Rachel grew up in a small, quiet town full of loud talkers. Her words were always only loud on paper. She has been writing stories and creating characters for as long as she can remember. After living on the west coast for many years she recently moved to Virginia Beach, VA.

Rising Storm Season 2 reviews

rising-storm-header-banner

    Welcome to Storm, Texas…

A town nestled among rolling hills and painted with vibrant wildflowers, where everything seems like perfection.

But there are secrets beneath the facade.

Dark and powerful secrets. The kind that can destroy lives and tear families apart. That can cut through a town like a tempest, leaving jealousy and destruction in its wake, along with shattered hopes and broken dreams.

Rising Storm is a soap-opera style drama. A powerful series conceived by Julie Kenner and Dee Davis, full of scandal, deceit, romance, passion, and secrets.

…get caught in the storm!

  rising-storm-season-2-series-image    

Experience Rising Storm Season Two: Episodes 1-8 here! A new season…a new storm - get caught!

      episode-1_against-the-wind-cover


Episode One: AGAINST THE WIND by Rebecca Zanetti As Tate Johnson works to find a balance between his ambitions for political office and the fallout of his brother’s betrayal, Zeke is confronted with his brother Chase’s return home. And while Bryce and Tara Douglas try to hold onto their marriage, Kristin continues to entice Travis into breaking his vows…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU        

My Review:
Season 2 definitely heats up! Strife among brothers, lovers, affairs, family struggles, oh my! The readers are getting to see characters that haven't been the focus until now.  We're still seeing the affects of Dakota's devastation.  We see longing in Dillon's eyes and what may or may not come of that. The Johnson family may have a lot more coming their way if Tate makes the run for mayor.

  episode-2_storm-warning-cover

Episode Two: STORM WARNING by Larissa Ione As Joanne Alvarez settles into life without Hector, her children still struggle with the fallout. Marcus confronts the differences between him and Brittany, while Dakota tries to find a new equilibrium. Meanwhile, the Johnson’s grapple with war between two sets of brothers, and Ian Briggs rides into town…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU       


My Review:
In this episode, the reader gets a peek into Ian Brigg's life and the changing things in Patrick Murphy's world.  Ian is enthralled by Marisol but he’s in Storm for Marcus.  The Alvarez’s are trying to find a new normal and Marcus is dealing with the backlash from Brittany's father. Marisol knows Patrick isn't the guy for her but she is feeling things for Ian that she's never felt for Patrick. Tate and Tucker are still not on good terms. There were so many things beginning in this book and I couldn't devour it fast enough!
   episode-3_brave-the-storm-cover

Episode Three: BRAVE THE STORM by Lisa Mondello As Senator Rush’s poll numbers free fall, Marylee tries to drive a wedge between Brittany and Marcus. Across town, Anna Mae and Chase dance toward reconciliation. Ginny longs for Logan, while he fights against Sebastian’s maneuvering. And Hector, newly freed from prison, heads back to Storm…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU        

My Review:
The more we see Sebastian Rush and Marylee, the more I want to throat punch them! They need to quit using others for their gain, but sadly I guess that is a lot of politics.  We see more from Chase and Anna Mae and their past. Celeste is still falling apart and Travis and Kristin are still seeing each other. But this book ends on a delicious cliffhanger, so be sure to have Lighting Strikes available!

  episode-4_lightning-strikes-cover

Episode Four: LIGHTNING STRIKES by Lexi Blake As Ian Briggs begins to fall for Marisol, Joanne and Dillon also grow closer. Joanne’s new confidence spreads to Dakota but Hector’s return upends everything. A public confrontation between Marcus and Hector endangers his relationship with Brittany, and Dakota reverts to form. Meanwhile, the Senator threatens Ginny and the baby…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU      

My Review:

Lighting strikes, indeed!  Hold on to your book; Hector is back!  And he's PISSED! Dakota is the only one happy to see him. Joanne's family are concerned about her now that Hector is back and Dakota is reverting to her old self. Ian is still wooing Marisol and getting to know her. Ginny is missing her friendships and relationship with Logan and she's still optimistic the baby is Jacob's. She's tired of people always talking about what happened. She wants everyone to just forget and move forward.

   episode-5_fire-and-rain-cover

Episode Five: FIRE AND RAIN by R.K. Lilley As Celeste Salt continues to unravel in the wake of Jacob’s death, Travis grows closer with Kristin. Lacey realizes the error of her ways but is afraid it’s too late for reconciliation with her friends. Marcus and Brittany struggle with the continued fallout of Hector’s return, while Chase and Anna Mae face some hard truths about their past…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU      

My Review:
Holy Cliffhanger, Batman!  What a doozy!  Celeste is not acknowledging anyone, she's so deep in depression she lashes out and no one can get through to her. It's quite sad.  Lacey realizes her family is falling apart and she comes up with an idea to bring her family back together. While Travis avoids his family as much as possibly and leans on Kristin.  Anna Mae and Chase try dating; it's sweet!

   episode-6_quiet-storm-cover

Episode Six: QUIET STORM by J. Kenner, writing as Julie Kenner As Mallory Alvarez and Luis Moreno grow closer, Lacey longs for forgiveness. Brittany and Marcus have a true meeting of hearts. Meanwhile, Jeffry grapples with his father’s failures and finds solace in unexpected arms. When things take a dangerous turn, Jeffry’s mother and sister, as well as his friends, unite behind him as the Senator threatens his son…
  
  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU  

My Review:
Oooh, THIS episode!  They get better and better. Patrick comes to terms with his and Marisol's friendship.  Things heat up for Jeffry.  He's finally figuring out who he is.  Lacey misses her friends and wants to make things right with them, then she sees something she has to talk to them about and decides it's now or never.  Payton finally takes control of her life and the lives of her kids.  

       episode-7_blinding-rain-cover

Episode Seven: BLINDING RAIN by Elisabeth Naughton As Tate Johnson struggles to deal with his brother’s relationship with Hannah, hope asserts itself in an unexpected way. With the return of Delia Burke, Logan’s old flame, Brittany and Marcus see an opportunity to help their friend. But when the evening takes an unexpected turn, Brittany finds herself doing the last thing she expected—coming face to face with Ginny…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU      

My Review:
I think this was my favorite episode! I enjoyed getting to see more from Ginny in this episode.  Ginny and Celeste accidentally come face to face and Ginny finally stands up for herself. Logan is talked into a double date with Delia and it isn't what he thought it would be.  Mary Louise starts dating someone that she's had her eyes on for awhile.  They just seem to fit.  Tate and Tucker finally begin to heal.  And things start looking up for Ginny in many ways.  


  episode-8_blue-skies-cover

Episode Eight: BLUE SKIES by Dee Davis As Celeste Salt struggles to pull herself and her family together, Dillon is called to the scene of a domestic dispute where Dakota is forced to face the truth about her father. While the Johnson’s celebrate a big announcement, Ginny is rushed to the hospital where her baby’s father is finally revealed…

  Amazon US ** Amazon UK ** Amazon CAN ** Amazon AU    

My Review:
This episode is intense! Dakota sees the hard truth about her dad.  But its also healing for her and the family.  Celeste pulls it together to get some things done. Have I mentioned Senator Rush needs to be punched in the face!?! Yeah, that.  Marisol and Ian need to talk and everyone finds out the truth about Lil Bit.  Lots of things jammed packed into this episode and it was a great way to end this season! 

All around, I loved reading each episode for various reasons. I highly enjoy how they are written by different authors, but if you weren't aware of that, it feels like the same person wrote them.  These authors work so well together and Dee Davis and Julie Kenner came up with such a fun concept.  This season is like crack. You seriously can't put it down! Be prepared to get all the episodes and binge read!

Adriana Locke - Written in the Scars cover reveal and giveaway




Title: Written in the Scars
Author: Adriana Locke
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Cover Design: Kari March Designs
Photographer: Lauren Perry, Perrywinkle Photography
Cover Model: Ghent Scott
Release Date: October 20, 2016


Blurb

Falling in love is easy.

Falling out of love is the hardest thing in the world.

And Elin and Ty Whitt are terrible at it.

The first time the local basketball star smiled at Elin, she was a goner. It was just so damn easy to fall for the dark-haired hometown hero with his charming smile and strong, athletic build.

Thousands of sleepy smiles, aimless drives down country roads, and squeaks of the backdoor after a swing shift later, reality hits. And it hits hard. Falling in love was definitely the easy part. Watching it break apart was impossible.

Through the tears, the second-guesses, the memories of a life built together, the world keeps spinning. With each turn comes clarity and hope—sometimes in the form of a pair of muddy boots by the back door or from the words of a wise friend.

When Ty shows back up with a new found determination to put his family back together, Elin's torn between the fights of the past and the possibility of a new start. This is the man that holds her heart, the man she loves beyond anything else. But this is also the one person in the world that can cause her the most pain.

Life’s not always easy. Love’s not for the faint of heart. But with life comes lessons and Ty and Elin have the scars to prove it. But it's their love written in those scars that will hold them together … or break them apart.

Catherine Bybee - Not Quite Perfect review and giveaway


NOT QUITE PERFECT
Not Quite Series, Book Five
Montlake Romance, Contemporary
September 20, 2016, First Edition
Paperback & Kindle


With true love, there’s no such thing as a safe distance.


Mary Kildare knows how to read people. It’s both why she makes a great therapist and why she refuses to trust the average bachelor. Staying fiercely independent has been her primary relationship strategy—until wealthy playboy pilot (and commitmentphobe) Glen Fairchild reappears in her life. After a yearlong teasing tug-of-war, Mary and Glen test the waters of attraction, only to find that their physical chemistry runs deeper than flirtation.

At first, a bicoastal romance suits them both—especially since Glen can swoop in and whisk Mary away on one of his company’s planes. But no matter how close they get, they’re still three thousand miles apart. And when Mary’s life is threatened, Glen realizes the one luxury he doesn’t have is time. Can he close the distance between them before it’s too late?

Praise for the Not Quite Series



“Bybee’s magnetic fourth Not Quite contemporary proves that romance can happen in the most unlikely places...The love scenes are sizzling and the multidimensional characters make this a page-turner. Readers will look for earlier installments and eagerly anticipate new ones.”


Publishers Weekly on Not Quite Forever



" Not Quite Dating offers a sweet and satisfying Cinderella fantasy that will keep you smiling long after you've finished reading..."


USA Today, Happy Ever After



"Bybee's gift for creating unforgettable romances cannot be ignored. [Not Quite Enough] will sweep readers away to a paradise, and they will be intrigued by the thrilling story that accompanies their literary vacation."


 RT Book Reviews, Top Pick

My Review:

This book was so sweet. Ohhhh the feels!!!! Catherine Bybee is the queen of the feels! Her characters are real, the women are sweet and sassy and the men are alpha goodness. And Glen! *Swoon!* He's chivalrous, romantic and a good guy! And he's a pilot to boot! Yes, please. 

I love the mystery /drama Catherine's stories hold. Not only is there romance between Mary and Glen, but something happens Mary has to figure out. And it's so maddening! Poor girl. And I was on the edge of my seat waiting for it all to play out. Sleep? Who needs it?! I couldn't go to bed I was so wrapped up in this book. 

The story line was fun, scary, sad and quite romantic at times. This book was a good blend and it definitely held my attention. I didn't want to put it down!! I was completely wrapped up in Glen and Mary's budding relationship and their friendships with friends and family in their lives.  Another great book in the series and one not to be missed! Go get your copy today. And? You're welcome!

J. Daniels - Four Letter Word excerpt



Excerpt

I showered and shaved, slathered on my favorite sweet-smelling body lotion, slid into the dress after deciding on a thong and no bra, thanks to the mesh, and curled and teased my hair, giving it body and height that looked kick-ass paired with my outfit.
I also went to town on my makeup job, keeping everything heavy but the kind of heavy that screamed fierce concertgoer and not back alley hooker.
Dark, smoky eyes, false lashes that flared at the ends, and warm cerise lipstick.
I felt pretty. Really pretty.
The kind of pretty a girl had to commemorate with a selfie, and there was only one person in the entire world I wanted to send that selfie to.
I bit my lip while swiping my phone off the bed and pulling up the camera mode.
I was nervous.
Understandably so. This would be the first time Brian was going to see me.
Like ever.
Heavy stuff right there.
I’d thought about sending him pictures before, but got sidetracked with conversation and his sweet as warmed honey voice I wanted to taste, and all thoughts of pictures would slip my mind. Considering he never asked to see a photo of me didn’t help either.
Since he wasn’t bringing it up, I was hardly thinking about it.
But right now, standing in my bedroom with my makeup done up and my hair looking prettier than it had on prom night, sending Brian a picture of me was suddenly all I could think about.
And before I could think or whisper talk myself out of it, I reversed the camera so I could see myself on the screen, held the device out in front of me and off to the right a bit, pursed my stained lips into a kiss, other hand poised at my chin to blow it, and snapped the picture.
Then I attached it to a text and hit Send.

Feeling WILD.

I wanted to put my phone down. Really I did, especially since I had to snap on my studded cuff bracelet and that required use of both hands, furthermore because Tori had given me a fifteen-minute warning close to fifteen minutes ago, but I couldn’t let the damn thing go.
I couldn’t stop looking at it either.
My stomach was clenched. I was biting my fist and pacing the length of the bed, head down and eyes anxiously focused.
But when the little bubbles floated in teasing intervals on my screen and I knew Brian had seen my photo, that’s when the real panic set in.
Would he like how I looked? Would it be how he had imagined and confessed to imagining countless times late at night to me, or better, would my photo exceed the limits of his imagination and paint a more pleasing image in his mind?
Or would he hate it and me for sending it to him, shattering his dreamed-up spank-bank material and ruining every orgasm I ever gave him?
Shit.
Shit!
Which was it and why the hell was he taking so long to type? Didn’t he know this was killing me?
“Hurry up!” I whispered against the screen.
It started ringing in response to my plea, startling me and nearly slipping out of my hand.
Oh, God, he was calling.


Fate. Hate. Love. Lies.
Which four letter word will change their lives forever?

But if he wants her, she's going to make him work for it.
