Title: Free Falling Author: GL Chapple Genre: Romance Maddie Love shouldn’t hurt. Love should make your heart soar - not break it apart Love should make you feel safe - not broken and vulnerable.

Can happy-ever-afters exist if you no longer believe in fairy tales? Friends told me how sorry they were – but it wasn’t their fault. They told me I needed to move on - as if it were that fucking easy, and I could just pick up and carry on. They apologised for my loss – as if I’d misplaced an item of value, instead of the person that had helped hold me together, all the broken, messed-up pieces of me…It devalued her and everything that we had, and I hated that they could make such stupid, thoughtless and ridiculous statements. I knew they cared and I knew they were concerned, but it took all my willpower not to punch them and tell them to fuck off and leave me alone. I couldn’t give them what they wanted from me. I didn’t want to talk. I didn’t want to feel… GL Chapple is a welsh author that strongly believes she was born in the wrong country.

Title : Inked Babies (The Inked Brotherhood Epliogue) Author: Jo Raven Genre : Romance Photographer: Eric Battershell Models: Burton Hughes and Coco Liliana Hughes Five brothers in all but blood, five girls who love them, emerging from a past fraud with darkness and danger. There are wedding bells, and baby cries and laughter all around. They have found their happy ending. Only one cloud is marring these blue skies, and it has to do with Zane, the rock of the brotherhood. Nobody knows exactly what is wrong, but here’s the thing, folks: There are five of us, and we’re brothers in all but blood. We stand all for one and one for all. If you messed with one of us, you’ve messed with all of us. We protect our own. And Zane is more than one of our own. He’s our leader. He’s our steady center. If our center shatters, we all shatter. This brotherhood is strong. We’re gonna find out what troubles him and put it to rest, once and for all, bury it, stomp on it, crush it until it’s fixed or gone. Time we celebrated our happy ending. “How many lines do you see?” Audrey asks. “I’m not drunk, you know.” “Maybe I am. Humor me.” We’re both kneeling on the cold tiles of the bathroom, but can’t seem to move from the spot. “Two. Red. Lines.” I lick my lips. “And that means?” She punches me in the shoulder. It’s like a kitten pawing at me. “Ash.” “What?” I grin. “You know very well what it means.” She starts to laugh, covering her face with her hands, and she sounds kinda hysterical. “Oh my God, Asher Devlin.” I can’t stop my grin from widening. “We’re having another baby.” The pregnancy test is positive. I knew it in my gut for weeks now that she was pregnant, and here’s proof. I feel sorta proud, and scared, and happy at the same time. I whoop and draw her into my arms to kiss her mouth. “I love you, Auds.” “Love you, too, but…” She trembles a little in the circle of my arms. “So soon? Scott is not even two yet. He’s still breastfeeding, for God’s sake.” I lower my hand to her still flat tummy. “And he’ll love a brother, or a sister to play with.” “It will be hard.” “We’ll be fine. We’ll do this together.” I bite my lip not to laugh at the look she sends me. “Well, I’ll help as much as I can. Rub your feet and all. Rub anything you need rubbed.” I lift my hand to cup one of her breasts, and yeah, I had thought her tits were heavier, and look, I’m right. “It’s your fault,” she mutters, that mutinous look still flashing in her green eyes. “You and your… your cock.” “It’s a super cock.” Apparently. I glance down where my dick is starting to rise to the occasion, tenting the front of my briefs. All this talk of baby making and the feel of her breast in my hand are giving it ideas. “Super Cock would like to say hi to Super Mommy.” “Stop it.” She punches my shoulder again, and I brush my thumb over her hardening nipple, making her gasp. Wow, her tits are almost spilling out of her fine-laced bra, and all I wanna do is drag her to our bed and sink into her. Looks like she’ll need some persuading first, though. Her fine brows are knit. “I’ll never finish my studies, not with another baby. Oh God…” “Hey. Auds.” I put my hand under her chin, tilt her face up until she’s looking at me. “Yes, you will. This baby wasn’t planned, hell, the previous one either, but we’re in this together. I meant it when I said it. I’ll help. We’ll find a way, and you’ll do everything you’ve ever dreamed of, okay? I promise.” She nods, her eyes filling up, but she’s smiling. “I want your babies, Ash. All your babies. I trust you.” My girl. I brush my mouth over hers, tasting her sweetness. “I hope I never give you cause to regret it.” “You won’t.” She smiles at me, and her expression turns dreamy, just like it did the time we found out she was pregnant with Scott. Her hand covers mine over her tummy, and I try to imagine us with another baby. A sudden stab of panic hits me, and I swallow hard. “Am I… Am I doing this right, Auds? With you and Scott? Am I…?” “You’re the perfect daddy,” she whispers, calming me down like every time my fears flare up. “You’re amazing, and I’m yours.” Jo Raven does a fantastic job with her revisit to the Inked Brotherhood! There's babies, wedding planning, a proposal and life after their individual stories concluded, but not all things are tied up and wrapped with a bow for these couples. The leader of the group, Zane, is battling demons of his own and trying to do it without the help of his brothers. What Zane forgets though is like he has done for all of the men, they will push to help no matter what the situation is. As Tyler, Asher, Dylan and Rafe band together to protect their own they are drawn into a fight none could comprehend the magnitude of the ripples it causes. The fight that takes them from the comfort of Madison to Wausau, where Zane's nightmare began and back to Madison where that nightmare is currently haunting him. The ladies of the Inked Brotherhood are just as tight as the guys so when Dakota is struggling Erin, Tessa, Megan and Audrey are there to help. These couples struggle to keep their happy endings and even though they have found the other half to their souls the relationships still take work and nobody is completely healed from their past. I absolutely loved coming back to the Brotherhood and surrounding myself in these guys all over again. Jo Raven never ceases to amaze me with her writing, the depth of her characters and the (sometimes) hard to read torture she puts these guys through, but through it all she has me hooked from the first to the last page.

However, in order to truly enjoy Lou-Lou and Ricardo's story, it is advised you read 'Blame It on the Pain' first as this story will follow the same timeline. I don't know where he is...but I know he's close. I open my eyes and blink rapidly due to the rain coming down much harder now. Tingles erupt on my skin and the air thickens when I look ahead and see the outline of him walking. Only he's not walking toward me, he's walking away from me. He must have just left. When he takes another step, I realize he's not actually walking at all...he's stumbling. He holds his arm out, bracing himself against the alley wall briefly and I continue to watch him. He waits a beat and attempts to walk again, but stumbles...even worse this time. I've never seen Ricardo so out of sorts before. Panic jams in my chest with my next thought. Oh, god. What if he's hurt? What if someone attacked him? And just like that, I'm running as fast as I can to get to him. Since he's less than a block away, I catch up quickly. His back is turned to me but I reach for his arm as he begins to sway. His arm twitches and I can feel the chords of his muscles begin to tighten. Shit, he's going to take a swing. He hates being touched. “It's just me,” I say quickly. “Only me.” “I know it's you.” His voice comes out slurred and gruff. “Are you okay?” He yanks his arm away. “I'm fine. Leave me the fuck alone. I don't need your help.” I force myself to ignore the sharp sting of his words before slowly backing away from him. He falls against the alley wall and hangs his head. “Christ, I hate it when Tyrone's right. I'm never drinking again.” “Famous last words,” I say before I can stop myself. Memories of the day we first met and when he said those very same words to me begin to play through my head like a slideshow... At least, until his head snaps up and he shoots me a look so threatening the entire world stops. “Fuck you,” he spews. I'm a lover of psychology, romance, erotica, dark romance, dark erotica, and anything thought provoking...except for math. I've always read books growing up, and after having a strange dream one night; I decided to just go for it and publish my first series.

Life is good. Finley Dey is a surgeon and the new hospital director. He’s tragically lost his family in an accident and has come to England to make a fresh start. He’s also stunningly attractive. Despite the guilt she feels for betraying her husband, Kathryn and Fin are thrown together, lust and desire grasping every clandestine opportunity. But a prediction from a psychic unnerves Kathryn and soon deceit, denial and ultimately death knock her world off its axis, turning her perfect life upside down.

Finn Dey knows heartache after loosing both his son and wife in an accident and moving to England is meant to be a fresh start. When the two meet there is an instant attraction that neither can deny, even thought Kathryn had previously thought she was happily married. I am normally not one to read a book with cheating involved, but there are so many twists and turns surrounding the issue it was hard not to want to see Kathryn and Finn together. A husband who is controlling and has secrets of his own, a best friend and sister who has her own secrets that no one will fully know and a coworker who is obsessed with wanting Kathryn in her life. This was a very well written book by a new author for me. As a working nurse, Joy Wood has been creating stories in her head for years, but never found the time to do anything with them – life just got in the way somehow. Two years ago, she moved to Cleethorpes, in Lincolnshire, and loves nothing better than walking along the sea front. She particularly enjoys the melancholy charm of the seaside in winter. Neighbours think she is so healthy walking for hours each day, what they don’t realise is, she stops off for endless refreshments along the way, and on occasions, the odd bacon sandwich! Daily, watching the tide turn, gave her the idea for her debut novel, For the Love of Emily. She would develop the characters in her head, and create the chapters on her laptop when she returned home. At various book signings, readers would ask Joy if she was the nurse they’d seen in the local newspapers, which gave her the idea that maybe readers would like a romance based around a nurse, so that’s where the idea for Knight & Dey initially came from.
