Giveaway & Guest Post ~*~ Primal Surrender by Lori King



What’s better than a hot hunky man? Two of them and a Kindle Paperwhite Giveaway!


My new book, Primal Surrender, is the last book of The Surrender Trilogy, and it features a pair of heroes who have fallen from the top of their careers, and landed at the feet of a true Texas heiress. In order to win her, they have to prove they aren’t after anything more than her heart, and then figure out how to share her.

Let me tell you about the guys….

Cormac “Mack” Thompson is a thirty five year old former entrepreneur turned ranch foreman. For years he built a profitable business only to have it come crashing down around his ears, because of his own mistakes. Standing six foot five inches tall, with blonde hair, blue eyes and dimples to die for, Mack looks like an angel. But this angel has a few demons locked inside, and his new girlfriend Claudia has the key.

Ryker Thompson is two years younger than his brother, but that doesn’t make him the “little” brother by any means. At six foot six, two hundred twenty pounds, he’s built like a linebacker, which is exactly how he made a name for himself playing professional football for the last decade. So when an injury sidelines him, and then a personal betrayal knocks him to his knees, he settles into an easy chair with a beer and a chip on his shoulder. Can Claudia help him regain his backbone, is this sexy hunk all washed up?

Primal Surrender
The Surrender Trilogy III
By: Lori King

The Surrender Trilogy III: Brothers Mack and Ryker Thompson know the pain of failure intimately having recently fallen from the heights of success. One a former football star, and the other a master at his artistic craft, they couldn’t be more different from each other. Mack hides behind anonymity in order to cover up his pain, while Ryker figures it doesn’t matter if the glass is half-full or half-empty as long as there’s a bartender refilling it all will be well. Broken and haunted by the mistakes of their past, neither expected to find a ray of sunshine in the clouds of their pity party.

Claudia Schmidt, is the only daughter of a real estate tycoon that has a plan for turning the small town of Stone River into a suburb of Austin, Texas. When she is sent in to replace the project manager, and convince the town of the necessity of the project, she finds herself falling in love with the town, and the Thompson brothers.

Although ménage relationships aren’t foreign to Mack and Ryker, neither one intends on living one, so how can they decide who gets the girl? And what if the girl wants all or nothing? Welcome back to Stone River…

$0.99 New Release & Giveaway ~*~ Dark Passions #darkpassions



They make their own rules. They obey no one and they have no interest in allowing a woman to change them. They are the men you've always been warned about. They certainly have no interest in love or relationships, but they do want to control you - body and mind. They have complete disregard for your feelings and yet possess irresistible charm; they are the very definition of an alpha male.

And they will make you swoon.

Terry Towers writing as Elixa Everett (NYT/USAT bestselling author) – I Conjure Thee (Paranormal Romance) What would you do to save your child? For Clarissa the answer is simple... Anything

Skye Eagleday (NYT/USAT bestselling author) – Sex Research (Contemporary Romance) University Professor and Researcher Dr. Jacob Desmet is conducting the most extensive study ever done on Human Sexuality.

Aya Fukunishi – Her Submission (Contemporary Romance) Everyone has a line they swear they'll never cross, and straight-laced college graduate Kathryn is no different. She'll soon learn, however, that the lines are hard to see while wearing a blindfold...

Emilie Criss – A Stranger’s Hand (Contemporary Romance) In a near future where memories can be erased and created in hours, Jacqueline Fuller wakes in the home of a stranger who says she is now his. For the price of her freedom, he offers everything she could possibly desire, including answers to questions she never knew to ask.

Abby Weeks – Tangled Rose (Contemporary Romance) Rose has been captured. The MC that killed her father has taken her for use as a stripper. But first they need to show her just how little hope, and how much humiliation, exists in her new life.

Cheri Verset – Savage Bikers Lust (Contemporary Romance) Seeking an exciting life, Madden takes off across the Southwest with dangerous and dominating biker Curtis. She doesn't realize that freedom has a cost, namely becoming his private toy. Is this the life she really wants?

Savannah Reardon – The Queen Slave (Futuristic Romance) Queen Neenah loses her throne to an invading army and becomes the toy of mysterious, rich, and powerful mogul Max Carrington. With her life turned upside down, innocent Neenah learns that sometimes a man will stop at nothing to win and keep his prize.

Adele Allaire – One Night, Three Hearts(Contemporary Romance) Rose is desperate to become a mother, even if it requires expensive fertility treatments and putting her sex life on a schedule. Her husband recruits longtime friend Matt to reignite their marital passion.

J.E. & M. Keep – Outcast (Fantasy Romance) Elin is a half-demoness bandit who was almost grateful it had taken this long for the three outlaws to turn on her. When one of them offers her his protection, breaking a lifetime of precedence, can she dare hope that it might mark a change in her fortunes?

Alara Branwen & Christie Sims – Ravaged by the Ogre’s Tribe (Fantasy Romance) It was supposed to be another routine reconnaissance mission. Sneak into the cave, get the information on the enemy’s troops, and get out. It would especially be an easy mission for Kat, one of the most experienced spies in the army. It would, if she wasn’t spying on an ogre’s army.

Excerpt:

Leaning against the cool wood of the hotel room door, she met his stare trying hard not to smile like an idiot.
“This was fun.”
Drew’s eyes flashed. “If you ask nicely, I’ll let you take me to bed.”
She shook her head at his antics. “What if I’m not feeling especially nice?”
Drew brushed his hand over her hip. “You’re right. You did feel naughty,” he agreed. Holding her stare, he bent closer, giving her time to protest his advance. The door opened at Aubree’s back. If she hadn’t hit the solid wall of Max’s chest, she might have ended up sprawled across the floor. Tilting back her head, she took note of the angry expression on Max’s face before switching her gaze back to Drew. His eyes danced with humor as he mouthed, “Denied,” and Aubree slapped her hand over her mouth to smother her giggles.
“Have a nice night, Drew.” Drew ignored Max’s snarling words.
“May I see you again?”
“I’d like that,” she answered without hesitation. Max growled. At the sound, Drew flashed him a cocky grin before giving her a wicked version of it and turning away. As soon as he moved out of the doorway, Max slammed it closed, focusing his ire on her. She’d never seen him truly angry before now. She laughed nervously.
“Are you drunk?”
“No,” she answered, incredulous. “I’ve had two glasses of champagne all night.”
“Your face is flushed.”
Aubree shrugged. “I’m happy. I had a good time.”
Max prowled toward her. The hard set of his jaw caused a flutter of desire to run through her. “Did you forget who you came here with?”
Unable to think of a single retort, she shrugged again. “I’m young and single. Why shouldn’t I enjoy myself?”
Max’s eyes flashed dangerously. His tone had a bite to it when he spoke. “You are not single.”

New Release ~*~ Billionaire Undone by JS Scott


Synopsis

After four years of working for “the billionaire boss from hell” Ally Caldwell thinks she finally has her life on the right track. Her fiancé is out of dental school, ready to go to work at a thriving practice, and it would finally be her turn to go back and finish her college degree. Unfortunately, her carefully planned future crumbles when she finds out that her fiancé, the man she’d nearly killed herself to help get through school, has been cheating on her. With her wedding looming in the near future, Ally’s blindsided, realizing she’d never even knew the man she’d been planning to marry. Suddenly, her carefully organized life is turned upside down, and not one single thing is turning out the way it was supposed to happen. Even her boss, Travis the Tyrant, is beginning to act differently, throwing Ally into an even more confused and chaotic state of mind. Travis, the one man who she’d always counted on to be a jerk, was now the guy who actually steps up to try and help her straighten her life out again. Unfortunately, she doesn’t much care for his highhanded arrogance or his methods of “helping.” Ally wants to hate Travis. It makes her life so much simpler to fight with him than to admit to the combustible chemistry growing between the two of them. But as she begins to see more and more of the real Travis beneath his dark façade, she can’t seem to resist the dangerous lure of their unlikely attraction.

Billionaire Travis Harrison does everything he possibly can to repair the Harrison name after a scandal nearly destroyed his family years ago. He makes sure he keeps himself and his actions in check, his emotions buried under a thick layer of ice. Only his secretary and assistant, Alison Caldwell, makes him come close to losing his carefully constructed image. The obstinate female keeps shoving him closer and closer to the edge of sanity every single day. But when he finds out about her fiancé’s betrayal, his protective instincts roar to life inside him, making him want to ensure she’s never hurt again. The only problem is…Ally doesn’t want his help, and the infuriating woman does everything she can to push him away, even as the two of them are swept into an undeniable passion that neither of them can possibly ignore. Before long, Travis finds himself in ruthless pursuit of something much more important and elusive than just a business deal.

 Can these two very different, very stubborn people actually be meant to be together? Find out if Travis and Ally can let down their defenses and surrender to a love so powerful it will rock them to the depths of their souls in Billionaire Undone, Book Five of The Billionaire’s Obsession series.

Excerpt

“So why were you so insistent that I was coming with you to Colorado?  You’re obviously comfortable with the crowd here.  You know the Colters well.  Why is this any different than any other charity function?”  She’d been wondering that for a while now.  

“It’s an auction and a ball,” Travis answered grimly.  

“So?  You attend auctions,” she shot back at him.  

“It’s not a typical auction.  Tate thought it would be interesting to have a billionaire auction to raise more money.  Bastard!  And he has the connections to gather a very wealthy crowd.”  

“So only billionaires will be there?” Ally asked, bewildered.  

“No.  Billionaire’s are the auction items.  Women are bidding on the billionaire of their choice to be their escort for the ball.”  Travis visibly shuddered.  “I can’t believe Sutherland showed up.  Poor bastard.  I hope he knows what he’s getting himself into.  Tate’s own brothers conveniently had to be out of town.”  

“So you’re going to be auctioned off?”

“Hell, no.  I’m exempt because I have a woman.  It’s just the single guys.” 
“So you brought me along as your cover?” Ally asked, biting back a laugh, knowing that was probably initially the reason he’d needed her here.  

He hesitated for a moment and then answered, “Yeah. I’m not going up on some auction block like a damn antique or a show horse for sale.”  

Ally snickered, “Well, you are priceless and a stud.  That’s hilarious.  And I think it’s very unique.  I think it will be fun.  And the men that are participating are good sports.  Is Tate going to do it?”  

“Yeah.  Some unsuspecting woman will have to put up with his ornery ass all night,” Travis grumbled.  “He got a surprising number of men who volunteered.  We should raise a lot of money.”  

“So I’m going to be in the same place as many of the world’s most eligible bachelors?” Ally asked teasingly.  

“No.  You’ll be there with me,” Travis told her gravely.

Sam and Maddie are here!

Billionaire Sam Hudson has pretty much lived his life with no apologies because he tries never to do anything that he’s sorry about…except for what he had done in the past to Dr. Madeline Reynolds. Many years and regrets later, Sam meets up with Maddie again by chance; his brother Simon is marrying Maddie’s best friend and the two of them are forced to be civil. But Sam wants to be more than polite, and he wants another chance to make things right, so he offers Maddie a bold proposition, an offer he knows she’ll have a very hard time declining even though she hates him.

Dr. Madeline Reynolds adores her best friend Kara and her fiancé Simon, but being forced into the company of Sam Hudson, because they are both in Simon and Kara’s wedding, is pure torture. She’s hated Sam for years, but when he offers her a bargain, something near and dear to her heart, she’s torn between her dislike for the man and the offer of something she’s always desperately wanted. Once, Sam Hudson nearly destroyed her, but Maddie discovers that sometimes things aren’t always what they appear to be. Is Sam really a devious heartbreaker, or is there something more to him beneath the surface?

Can two people with so many years of hurt between them learn to trust each other again?

He'd been reunited with a sister he hadn’t realized existed. Finally he had family again, a reprieve from the pain and loneliness that had haunted him since his devastating loss.

Or so he believed…until the day he rescued a mysterious woman in the park, a female who somehow had managed to reignite a part of him that he thought was long dead...
Suddenly, Max's protective, dominant, possessive male instincts flare to life, leaving him at a loss as to how lightning could possibly strike twice in one lifetime. Is he truly being given another chance at real happiness, or would it be dangled in front of him, only to be taken away once again?

With his professional football career over due to a tragic accident, billionaire Kade Harrison takes on the task of solving a mystery for his brother-in-law and friend, Max Hamilton. Without his former career to fill every minute of the day, Kade's looking for something to challenge him--now that he's lost the career that had meant everything to him. But what starts out as a simple favor soon becomes a whole lot more than he bargained for when the woman he's seeking slips away from him every time he gets close to finding her. When Kade does finally corner her, things start to get even more complicated. Asha Paritala is nothing like he expected, and the female he had tracked down as a favor for Max soon becomes a woman he wants for his very own, a woman who makes protective and highly predatory instincts he didn't know he had flare to life inside him. Kade soon discovers that he wants Asha's total surrender to the desire and passion that vibrates intensely between the two of them, but he also wants her trust, the one thing Asha's history makes it difficult for her to give. Can Kade convince her that some things are worth risking it all?

Caught between two worlds, Asha Paritala is homeless, broke and damaged from a life of abuse and neglect. Born of an American mother and an Indian immigrant father, Asha was raised as an Indian woman by a foster family after the death of her natural parents when she was little more than a baby. She's spent her entire life under the control of others until finally breaking free two years earlier, and she's determined to keep her freedom, even if it means she has to struggle to survive. But when she meets Kade Harrison, her resolve is tested. After Kade helps her through a bad situation, she finds herself beginning to trust Kade as she's never trusted a man before. Kade is everything she always thought a man should be, but can she lose herself in him completely when she knows she's damaged and confused. And is it really possible that she could be a lost sibling to two people like Max Hamilton and Maddie Hudson? Asha is tempted by the possibility of family, and the irresistible lure of a man like Kade Harrison. Can a woman caught between two cultures, so flawed and so backward, really reach out and take what she wants, or will the instinct to run from the pain of her past destroy the hope of happiness for her future?

Find out if two broken souls can heal each other in The Billionaire's Game, book 4 of The Billionaire's Obsession series!!
