Author: Lauren Rowe
Genre: New Adult, Contemporary Romance
Length: 280 pages
Publisher: Waterhouse Press

***MISADVENTURES ARE STANDALONE ROMANCES THAT CAN BE READ IN ANY ORDER***

Straitlaced freshman Zooey Cartwright has arrived at UCLA determined to have a heck of a lot more fun in college than she did in high school. What’s the first item on Zooey’s agenda before classes start in two days? Losing her pesky V card. She’s definitely not looking for a boyfriend, so where can Zooey find the right guy to do the deed and move along without a backward glance? At a party thrown by a bunch of football players, of course. Enter Tyler Caldwell. A beast on the field and off, cocky as heck, and often wearing T-shirts with sayings like “God’s Gift to Womankind,” Tyler is most definitely not boyfriend material. After a make-out session with Tyler leaves Zooey entirely unsatisfied, she is determined never to see him again. But her schedule lands her in not one but two of his classes, and it doesn’t take long before Tyler and Zooey have reached an arrangement for Tyler to teach Zooey exactly what she wants to know―and a whole lot more she never bargained for. Can Zooey surrender her body to this bad boy without giving him her heart, too?

Title: The Wrong Kind of Compatible (Love Undercover #1)
Author: Kadie Scott
Genre: New Adult, Romantic Comedy
Length: 192 paged
Publisher: Entangled: Lovestruck
Release Date: June 12, 2017

Data analyst Cassie Howard may be brilliant (and, okay, a little awkward), but she’s worked hard to get where she is. She definitely doesn’t need some sexy new analyst coming in and taking credit for her work. Or the inappropriate thoughts that keep popping out of her mouth she’d rather he not hear.
For undercover FBI agent Drew Kerrigan, computers have always made more sense than people, but he’d better develop some slick social skills in a hurry if he’s going to win over the too-tantalizing-for-his-sanity Cassie. Hacking their systems was easy. Now he’s just got to hack the one person in the company most likely to see through his ruse…

On sale for 99¢ for a limited time!

Kandi started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic (like most girls brought up on Disney movies).

She enjoys beach days, movie marathons, live music, craft beer and sweet wine – not necessarily in that order.

Corruption of the Heart by Jessica Manson ~ Guest Post and Giveaway


Corruption of the Heart
Jessica Manson
Publication date: January 3rd 2017
Genres: New Adult, Paranormal, Romance
Lilith Carson was a normal girl whose parents died suddenly. She moves to a different state with her aunt, and she cuts herself off from everyone. Until one day, when her crush appears beside her in the library. From there, they fall in love, fast and hard.
Lilith finds out that when she turns eighteen, she will transform into a Vampire-Witch hybrid. When a vampire conceives a female, that female already has a mate chosen for her. When Lilith was conceived, there was a mistake. Her world is turned upside down when she must choose between two guys she barely knows.
Lilith has chosen the guy of her dreams and has settled into a life that she thinks is perfect. But nothing is ever as it seems. She will soon face the ultimate betrayal by someone she loves deeply.

How to Find the Man of Your Dreams
by Jessica Manson


Finding the perfect man is every woman’s dream. But how do you turn dream into reality? There is no guarantee that you will ever find him but surely there are things we can do as women to make those dreams come true.
1-      Know yourself first.

You can’t give yourself to someone else until you know what you want. You have to know what your expectations are, what your needs are, and what it is you are looking for. You need to be honest with yourself about your own faults. What can you change about you to make you a better person? Really knowing yourself will help you understand what you want from a relationship.

2-      Don’t expect perfection
Don’t expect the perfect man to be perfect. Everyone has flaws including you so don’t expect anything different from a man. The key is finding a man with flaws that you can live with. Be quick to forgive those little annoying habits that get on your nerves but I can guarantee that you have an annoying habit too. If you except perfection you will end up being too picky. Now just because you don’t expect perfection doesn’t mean you have to settle.
3-      Be happy being alone and love yourself
In order to be happy with the man of your dreams you first have to be happy with your own company. If you don’t love who you are as a person you will never love the person you end up with.
4-      Get experience

You will need to get some experience before you can find the man of your dreams. Go on dates with different types of guys and find out what type suits you the best. Step outside of your comfort zone. You never know, maybe that is where the man of your dreams is waiting.

5-      Compromise
Stand your ground on what really matters to you but know when to compromise. Don’t cut a guy lose just because he only meets parts of your criteria. Have an open mind and adjust your criteria list to things you can live with and things you cannot. It is all about balance, making each other happy and fulfilling each other’s needs.

Groupie by C.M. Stunich ~ Excerpt and Giveaway


Groupie
C.M. Stunich
(Rock-Hard Beautiful, #1)
Publication date: March 21st 2017
Genres: New Adult, Romance
“Can one of these five rockstars fill the hole in my heart? Or will I stay broken forever?” 
Young, dumb, and broke. 
That’s what started everything. With five dollars in her pocket, and everything she owns stuffed in the back of her car, Lilith Goode’s life is over. Done. Destroyed. 
Ten words. One text. That’s what it took to change the whole world. 
A crumpled concert ticket. A chance encounter. That’s what it takes to start all over again. 
Five rockstars. One girl. Six dark hearts, six withered souls. 
But can one broken person really put another back together again?

Excerpt from Groupie!!!
(Ransom And Paxton Kiss, Super Steamy)

“Hold on a sec,” I say as I take a small step back and look between them, grab a quick glance back at Muse and Cope.  They're hanging back, watching the situation with interest.  Both of them have strange, almost wry smiles on their faces when they exchange a look.  “What's the hurry then?” I ask, taking the whip back from Ran and lifting a hand to his face.
         Gently, I push the hood back and press my mouth softly to his, just a peck before I pull away and do the same to Pax, sliding the whip across his cheek before I kiss him, too.  It's like kissing night and day, two halves of the same cycle.  Ran tastes like kindness with a healthy dose of anger simmering underneath, while Pax tastes like cruelty over pain.
         It's a lot to take in.
         I kiss Ran again, deeper this time, sliding my tongue against his, loving the feel of his hand sliding up my back.  Pax makes a sound and I switch back to him, letting that wicked sharp mouth take over mine.  And then when I pull back, I take him with me, drawing us together in a three-way kiss, just mouths and tongues and heat.
         I can feel my body responding to the hot warmth on either side of me, the rigid cocks pressed up against me, the sounds emanating from each guy's throat.  They might be pissed off at each other—might even hate each other—but right now, they both want me and that gives them some common ground.
         I pull back and take the whip with me, dropping down to my knees between them.
         “Don't stop,” I plead as I look up and pop the buttons on Ran's skinny jeans, on Pax's aubergine slacks.  “You stop, I stop,” I say as they stare at each other and Pax makes a face.
         “Oh, what the fuck.  I want my cock sucked,” he says with a shrug, putting a tattooed hand on the back of Ran's neck and kissing him like he's still kissing me.  Ransom goes completely stiff, so I go down on him first to relax him, freeing his hard shaft from his jeans and sliding my mouth over the head.  My other hand finds Pax inside his slacks and frees him, too.  I take a brief moment to slick my tongue over Paxton's cock so I have plenty of lube to work with and start pumping him with my hand.

         Stuck between cruel and kind right now.  That's where I am.  And it's a beautiful fucking place to be.  When I glance up, I can see Ran and Pax kissing, and although there's a definite tension there, they don't stop.

Some folks might call this crazy, but Caitlin Morgan doesn’t mind – especially considering she has to write biographies in the third person. Oh, and half the host of characters in her head are searing hot bad boys with dirty mouths and skillful hands (among other things).

She hates tapioca pudding, loves to binge on cheesy horror movies, and is a slave to many cats. When she’s not vacuuming fur off of her couch, C.M. can be found with her nose buried in a book or her eyes glued to a computer screen. She’s the author of over thirty novels – romance, new adult, fantasy, and young adult included. Please, come and join her inside her crazy. There’s a heck of a lot to do there. 
Oh, and Caitlin loves to chat (incessantly), so feel free to e-mail her, send her a Facebook message, or put up smoke signals. She’s already looking forward to it.

Moments of Beauty
J.B. Heller
Publication date: March 23rd 2017
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance
Ugly. It’s the only word to describe my upbringing. 
It drove my need to capture every moment of beauty I could find. A glimpse of a mother’s love. A feather floating in the breeze. A ray of sunshine emerging on a rainy day. 
And then there was her, Eliza Quinn, she signified everything I didn’t deserve. She showed me more beauty than I ever thought possible. And I took it all, despite knowing I was going to leave her, and never come back. 
Leaving her five years ago was my biggest mistake, and my greatest regret. Now I need to make amends. I thought leaving her was the hardest thing I’d ever have to do, but that was before I knew I had to win her back.


Author Bio:
JB Heller is an average Aussie housewife in her late 20’s with a wicked sexy imagination. She and her super sexy husband are the parents of three minions, two Great Danes and a Cat who thinks she’s a person. 
She spends her days running around after her wildling children and jotting down stories in her flower embossed leather notebook (She is very particular about her stationary.). She’s a self-confessed Stationary Junky who’s constantly on the lookout for more. 
Most day’s JB can be found glued to her laptop, taking advantage of school hours- writing as fast as she can while she can. Or trolling Pinterest for her next potential muse. And when she needs a break from the voices in her head she indulges in her favourite past time, reading.

Seduction Game by Candy J Starr ~ Cover Reveal


Seduction Game
Candy J. Starr
Publication date: March 23rd 2017
Genres: New Adult, Romance
Do a overseas exchange, they said. Tokyo. It will be good for your artistic development. Yeah right. The only reason I agreed to the whole deal was so that I’d be well out of reach of my abusive ex. 
The student co-ordinator even arranged for me to stay with a host family so I didn’t have to stretch my budget. Only, I seem to attract crazy – and this “respectable” family had their dark secrets. Can you believe they offered me money, a lot of money, to give their oldest son some life experience? Life experience meaning sex. 
I know why they asked me. They think I’m a trashy whore. 
But I’m not. Even though that money would give me an escape from my ex when I return home, I have principles. Anyway, Junichi is an uptight, arrogant jerk. 
Then I discover Junichi’s secret life – and, as we grow closer, he comes far more enticing. 
I’m tempted. Oh yes, I’m tempted. 
This is just a game, a seduction game, and no one is going to get hurt.


Author Bio:
Candy J. Starr used to be a band manager until she realised that the band she managed was so lacking in charisma that they actually sucked the charisma out of any room they played. “Screw you,” she said, leaving them to wallow in obscurity – totally forgetting that they owed her big bucks for video equipment hire. 
Candy has filmed and interviewed some big names in the rock business, and a lot of small ones. She’s seen the dirty little secrets that go on in the back rooms of band venues. She’s seen the ugly side of rock and the very pretty one. 
But, of course, everything she writes is fiction.
