Book Spotlight: Better When He's Bad @JayCrownover @WmMorrowBKS



So you’ve met Rule, Jet, Rome, and Nash!  But there’s a new boy in town, along with a new series, by Jay Crownover.  Better When He’s Bad (Welcome to the Point #1) is a new adult novel scheduled for publication on June 17, 2014, by William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishing. 

This is how Jay describes her new novel/series: 

“It’s dark and dangerous and set in a fictitious underworld/bad part of town. The men in all of the books are way more along the line of being anti-heros than true leading men. I guess the easiest way to sum them up is by saying the books are all about the choices these characters have to make and the outcomes and results of those decisions. Bax’s book is all about having to make the hard choices and what becomes of him and his lady in doing so. They are super fun, very atmospheric and I think really what writing a bad boy should be like if you’re going to do it :)”

Look in the back of Nash’s book to find the first chapter of “Better When He’s Bad.”

Synopsis
Welcome to the Point

There’s a difference between a bad boy and a boy who’s bad . . . meet Shane Baxter.

Sexy, dark, and dangerous, Bax isn’t just from the wrong side of the tracks, he is the wrong side of the tracks. A criminal, a thug, and a brawler, he’s the master of bad choices, until one such choice landed him in prison for five years. Now Bax is out and looking for answers, and he doesn’t care what he has to do or who he has to hurt to get them. But there’s a new player in the game, and she’s much too innocent, much too soft…and standing directly in his way.

Dovie Pryce knows all about living a hard life and the tough choices that come with it. She’s always tried to be good, tried to help others, and tried not to let the darkness pull her down. But the streets are fighting back, things have gone from bad to worse, and the only person who can help her is the scariest, sexiest, most complicated ex-con The Point has ever produced.

Bax terrifies her, but it doesn’t take Dovie long to realize that some boys are just better when they’re bad.

About the Author
I’m supposed to share interesting details about myself so that my readers get to know me so here we go in no particular order: I’m an natural redhead even though I haven’t seen my real hair color in years, I’m a big fan of tattoos and have a half sleeve on either arm and various other pieces all over the place, I’ve been in the bar industry since I was in college and it has always offered interesting insight into how men and women interact with each other, I have 3 dogs that are all crazy, I live in Colorado and love the snow, I love music and in all reality wish I could be a rock star not a writer or a bartender but I have zero talent so there is that.
I love to write, love to read and all I’m interested in is a good story with interesting characters that make the reader feel something.

Synopsis:
Ren Sharpe was abducted at fourteen and chosen by the mysterious F.A.T.E. Center to become a Shadow: the fearless and unstoppable guardian of a future leader. Everything she held dear—her family, her home, her former life—is gone forever. Ren survives four years of training, torture, and misery, in large part thanks to Junie, a fellow F.A.T.E. abductee who started out as lost and confused as she did. She wouldn’t admit it was possible to find love in a prison beyond imagining, but what she feels for Junie may just be the closest thing to it. At eighteen they part ways when Ren receives her assignment: find and protect college science student Gareth Young, or die trying. Life following a college nerd is uneventful, until an attack on Gareth forces Ren to track down the only person she can trust. When she and Junie discover that the F.A.T.E. itself might be behind the attacks, even certain knowledge of the future may not be enough to save their kidnappers from the killing machines they created.

Yeah y'all, this is so awesome. I'm a huge fan of soundtracks for books, I accidentally when I was younger created soundtracks for books when I was reading them, there are still books to this day that when I read then i hear the songs, or if I hear the songs the book plot, story and characters pop back into my head. I have so many fond memories of books because of this. But the formal book soundtrack for me didn't happen until I was reading Rachel Caine's Weather Warden series about bad ass djinns. And my love for book soundtracks took flight.

When I signed up to read and review this books and they told me a soundtrack was being added?!?!?! I was ALL. OVER. IT. I love playlists and I couldn't wait to share, because this one really fits the book, the characters and the plots, and it isn't until your deep into the chapter that you realize the author has really picked some winners. I'm of course going to create a B-Side list, of songs I think go well with the characters and the overall story, but that's come later, once I actually finish the book (as soon as I'm done here that's where I'm going back to!!). I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Here's your chance to meet the wonderful characters. Read the excerpt. And here's what the author's Playlist looks like. Youtube link below for the playlist.

I learned long ago I can’t listen to music and write at the same time.  I end up singing along or often times dancing instead.  But I’ll always listen to a song or two before I start to get me in the mood for a specific scene, or set the tone for what I’m about to write.  So for a bit of fun I decided to create the I BECOME SHADOW chapter by chapter companion playlist.  These are the songs I either listened too before writing that chapter, or I feel best sets the tone for what’s to come.  I really, truly had a good time doing this and hope that before you read each chapter you listen to the song I’ve connected to it.  If nothing else, and pardon the ego, it’s a pretty darn good playlist.

Romance Monthly Feature (3) & Giveaway : June

Hello my loves

If you didn't know already I'm a huge fan of romance (well duh it's pretty obvious with all the reviews and such).  And I'm excited to share all the romantic goodies I can find.  So here I'm going to highlight some of my faves coming this month and even feature a few lust worthy oldies but goodies.

I am a Harlequin junkee, and I would have named the blog that but there's already a blog out there with that name (dammit!!). I loved reading their books because these were the first romances I read when I started the genre ( I was subscribed to all of the mail~out book clubs for years as well) So when my favorite publishers gave me a chance to read books for them and share the love with a lucky winner?? I signed right up. So the books below are the ones I'm personally enjoying/looking forward to.

I'm required to let you know that I received advanced readers copies of all of the books, from the publisher (Harlequin) in exchange for my honest opinion.  This does not affect my review nor my recommendations. These are the books that I love and wanted to share. My reviews will be up soon for the others.  

This Month from Harlequin the Theme is Summer Blockbusters:
When Hayes Cardwell arrived in Big Sky, Montana, for his brother's wedding, the Texas P.I. didn't expect to play hero. But ever since he saved her from a brutal abductor, he can't get McKenzie Sheldon out of his mind and heart. McKenzie was drawn to Hayes from the moment she awoke and saw the tall, dark cowboy who'd saved her like some Western fantasy. But can he protect her from a danger that's much closer than they think? In the reader-favorite Wanted Woman, Maggie Randolph was searching for something and running from someone. But she didn't plan on meeting a man she could…trust. Except Timber Falls deputy sheriff Jesse Tanner had to catch her before it was too late



There ain't a rider that can't be thrown. And large-animal veterinarian Regan O'Connelli was thrown hard when he discovered his fiancée with his best friend. Now he's starting his life over at the Last Chance Ranch, run by the tightly knit Chance clan. But damned if his libido hasn't perked up over the spirited redhead who looks a lot like trouble…. Lily King is the queen of anti-structure. Turns out, that makes running a horse sanctuary a challenge. Regan's help is exactly what Lily needs—not to mention the seriously sexy sparks that are flying between them. Now she just has to convince this fallen cowboy to dust himself off and get back in the saddle…and into her bed!

What kind of cockeyed Pollyanna is Colin Cade working for? Her porch is rotting, her "guest cabin" is cheerless and her land and livestock have only a geriatric cowboy to care for them. Yet Hannah Shaw is positive she can turn her ranch into a successful B and B—and that Colin's the man to make it happen. But Colin can't stick around. He lives with the loss of his family by avoiding the memories, and the way he feels around Hannah and her young son is like a knife to the heart. Trouble is, he's better at ignoring his own pain than someone else's, and bright, cheerful Hannah has a heart as haunted as his own. She deserves to be happy—but could she really be with him?

In her now classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon told the story of Claire Randall, an English ex-combat nurse who walks through a stone circle in the Scottish Highlands in 1946, and disappears . . . into 1743. The story unfolded from there in seven bestselling novels, and CNN has called it “a grand adventure written on a canvas that probes the heart, weighs the soul and measures the human spirit across [centuries].” Now the story continues in Written in My Own Heart’s Blood. 1778: France declares war on Great Britain, the British army leaves Philadelphia, and George Washington’s troops leave Valley Forge in pursuit. At this moment, Jamie Fraser returns from a presumed watery grave to discover that his best friend has married his wife, his illegitimate son has discovered (to his horror) who his father really is, and his beloved nephew, Ian, wants to marry a Quaker. Meanwhile, Jamie’s wife, Claire, and his sister, Jenny, are busy picking up the pieces. The Frasers can only be thankful that their daughter Brianna and her family are safe in twentieth-century Scotland. Or not. In fact, Brianna is searching for her own son, who was kidnapped by a man determined to learn her family’s secrets. Her husband, Roger, has ventured into the past in search of the missing boy . . . never suspecting that the object of his quest has not left the present. Now, with Roger out of the way, the kidnapper can focus on his true target: Brianna herself. Written in My Own Heart’s Blood is the brilliant next chapter in a masterpiece of the imagination unlike any other.
Add To Goodreads  It's Book 8 Y'all and the show starts in AUGUST!!! I SO EXCITE!! (swamp family shoutout!!)  NO I don't have an ARC of this, if I did you won't hear the end of it!! I would be screaming from the top of the Empire State Building.

BEA (Book Expo America) Day 1: & Haul

It's BEA (Book Expo America) 2014 and once again my sister and I are off to NYC to romp all over and revel in the books!!.

We've been invited to several book events and I'm planning on going to the Youtube Blogger Meet Up on Saturday at 1230 and again at the Strand at 5pm.  I was supposed to goto a event last night but as always life intervened and I can't role into the city until way later. ( I hate real life man, why when I was sooo close to accomplishing one of my yearly book goals, so darn close. Le Sigh)

Well here's what happened, we waltzed into the Javitis Center at 620 am thinking we ruled and we were there early. Ha, Ha I tell you.

This is what we found when we walked in.
It appears we all have the same idea.Get here early and get the best tickets.  We jumped on line, I went downstairs got my press pass and then dropped off my bags at the coat check ($3.00 per bag, best $6 ever!!). 

 Making those lists and checking them more than twice. (lol we were book elves) Switched with my sister for her to get her badge, then grabbed our choices of ticketed authors then off we went to waste time until doors opened for breakfast at the Harlequin Teen event.

Harlequin's Teen Event featured, Julie Kagawa, Jennifer L Armentrout, Robin Talley, Alexandra Ardenetto and Adi Alsaid, along with all the editors for each book and several publicists.   

We sat at tables and ate breakfasts while they came around and talked to us in a Round Robin style which allowed us to meet them all and hear more about each book and why they choose to write it and help get it published.  Then when it was all done we got pictures with the authors and autographs if we wanted them. I got a chance to meet the newest hot new adult author of the moment and take pictures with her:
Yes y'all I met the awesome Jenn L Armentorut.
From them we hauled the following:

Ghost House by Alexandra Ardenetto
Talon by Julie Kagawa (One of the books I really came to BEA for)
Lies We Tell Ourselves by Robin Talley
Invisible by Dawn Metcalf
Stone Cold Touch by Jennifer L Armentrout

Yes y'all I had breakfast with some awesomely inspiring authors!! And an awesome Harlequin notebook and pen set, along with the amazing Harlequin bag!! (I'm a little excited so excuse the exclamation points)

By 9 my sister left to hit the showroom floor for the Neil Patrick Harris signing, and I joined her after my photos with the breakfast authors.  After that I was lost in the awesomeness of BEA and I snagged books from all over. Here are a few I got and can't wait to read:

For whatever reason the Harlequin booth was the most popular booth this year, every time I went over the lines were long as hell.  For the 10 am signing they ran out of books. Boo!! I was so disappointed then I went and got a few books at the autographing section and that helped to make me feel a little better.

I got:
That old black magic Mary Clack 
Strong Darkness by Jon Land who I completely fawned over,. I loved talking to him especially because I was the last in line this year.
Deep Blue by Jennifer Donelly
I Am Pilgrim (which my sister snagged for me while I was on the Deep Blue line.  I got more but just watch the video to see all the awesome books from day 1.

I will say that this year BEA went all in and had well versed and knowledgeable staff on hand to help out when we had questions, This year they also had a charging station for us to sit and use. There was one to pay for and it cost a bit of money ( I forgot to write down the price). Luckily I could head into the press office and so I did. I used it as a safe place to unwind a few times throughout the day and I met several wonderful people who I talked to a while before heading back out onto the showroom floor.

I noticed that this year the entire building was being used for the event with events booked for downstairs that I wasn't aware of before. The food court was busy as ever and there were more chairs than they have had in a while.  

This year as well there were more buses that went to Penn Station as well as being more frequent. I loved that we didn't have to worry about how we were getting to the station and i loved that each bus was marked.

This was one of the most organized years I have seen, in my three years of attending.  From the beginning to the end of the day, the Expo staff were doing their best and were well prepared unlike the other years.  I found that the bag checks were all open and fully staffed that the staff was courteous and were very good at maintaining a great flow for the bags.  

I'm hoping the rest of the week goes just as smoothly.  *crosses fingers*

An agent and a jaguar-shifter chase trouble, and each other, through the jungles of Belize... Agent Tammy Anderson has a reputation: she prefers to work alone. So when she’s paired up on a mission with jaguar-shifter David Patterson—who’s only recently been released from jail—to say she’s less than thrilled is a understatement.

USA Today bestselling author Terry Spear has written over two dozen paranormal romance novels and medieval Highland historical romances. In 2008 HEART OF THE WOLF was named a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year. A retired officer of the U.S. Army Reserves, Terry also creates award-winning teddy bears that have found homes all over the world. She lives in Crawford, Texas.

Excerpt

“Good night.” David closed his eyes, but he couldn’t stop taking in deep breaths of her jasmine soap and she-cat scent mixed into one delightful fragrance. He couldn’t ignore the beat of her heart - or his - that told him he was way too turned on, and that she was feeling the same way. He couldn’t help feeling the heat of her body and wanting to ratchet it up a few degrees, starting with a kiss.

A kiss. Hell, he’d never gone to bed with a woman when it meant total hands off. But lips...they didn’t count, did they?

She’d closed her eyes, but she wasn’t sleeping. She hadn’t pulled away from him, giving him her back. That meant something. Didn’t it?

He could ask. And she could say no.

He could kiss her, and when she got ready to slap him, he’d tell her it was a good-night kiss. And it would be. Unless she wanted more.

He could get lucky and she’d kiss him back.

Somehow it didn’t seem right to go to bed with a woman and not at least kiss her good night.

She opened her eyes to see him looking down at her - well, he was judging her lips, but when they curved up a bit, he lifted his gaze to meet her eyes and saw she was watching him.

“What?” she asked.

He couldn’t say it. David Patterson, who had no trouble interesting women in kisses and so much more, couldn’t say it.

“Don’t...tell...me. You want a good-night kiss,” she said, but he wasn’t certain whether she was offering or...not.

Not about to lose the opportunity, he placed his hand under her chin, lifted her face, and waited only the briefest period for her to pull away if she wasn’t in the mood for this. When she didn’t, he leaned down and kissed her mouth.

We're once again back in the jaguar world, this is the third jaunt through this world and i'm loving it!!   We meet up this time with David, brother of Wade, from book two in the series (which I own but have yet to read. Boo Hiss Aisha get on it).  You don't have to read the books in order to get the story. It's actually fun, funny, quickly gets to the action and had Terry's brand of humor and shenanigans that makes this a great rom-com read.

Now even more information is given about some of our fave characters from the beginning books but it doesn't spoil the story at all. ( I would still recommend reading in order though, just to get the whole experience).  This time we're chasing a stolen jaguar from the zoom a set of teens who think they know more than they do and two Jaguar agents who only have half the story. And boy what a story!!

As with all the books I've read by Terry, I laughed and chuckled quite a bit while reading, I did a bit of googling when I wanted to understand more and I was just genuinely in awe of how well Terry writes not just the characters but the scenery. Reading her tales just make me want to go there, and try so many of the adventures, although I'll gladly skip the misadventures.  I got sucked into the world of Tammy and David's adventure and kept trying to figure out what was going on and would laugh when things were revealed and I found out how off base I was.  I finished this in one night and really enjoyed the ride with the couple and their friends.

I loved reading David and Tammy as characters, Tammy's both scary and inspiring because man there would have been time I would have quit! I loved their unconventional methods and their round about way of coming together. Tammy is awesome and I loved reading her.
 ★★★★☆
I've already pre ordered my physical copy, it should be here soon to sit proudly beside all my other Terry Spear books on the shelves. I love this series so much!!

Ok so for those who would love to get to know the characters Terry's having a giveaway:
