SHATTERED BY PAMELA SPARKMAN AND DEANNA GOHN


Synopsis


Close your eyes for a moment and picture this.

A gorgeous redhead walks into a bar.

No, wait, a wedding reception. 

A gorgeous redhead walks into a wedding reception. Poised, polished and flawless - on the outside.

He's tall, dark, and handsome, exactly like a fairytale prince and he won't take no for an answer as he leads her to the dance floor.

But this will be no ordinary dance and theirs is no ordinary story. What begins as rhythmic steps on a dance floor fluidly and beautifully becomes the rhythm of two hearts meant to beat as one. 

Until the music stops.

In a moment everything she's put behind her comes crashing down, threatening to destroy what his love has helped repair and rebuild. 

Life throws punches and it hits hard when you least expect it.

What they learn is that sometimes, in order to be truly whole, you have to first be shattered to your very core.


Release Date: October 1st, 2014


Excerpt


“Maggie.” The way he said my name so softly, with such reverence, it sent a shiver up my spine. He pulled me inside, closed the door and pressed me up against it. It was so fast I barely knew what was happening. And when he pressed his hands against the door alongside my head, I was cocooned inside his arms. He stared down at me with pained concentration. His eyebrows pinched together while deep blue irises burned through me. He breathed out a long deep sigh as he closed his eyes into thin slits for several seconds. My heart raced as I struggled to anticipate his next move.

When his eyes opened, the intensity had subsided, but not disappeared. The burning desire behind them remained. His eyebrows smoothed, no longer pinched together. I had to close my own eyes as his warm sweet breath feathered across my lips. I was inundated with all of his emotions as they came flooding through me like a giant tsunami.

I was going under.


MEET PAMELA


I grew up in Alabama and have always been an avid reader. I had a stack of those Little Golden Books and I can remember reading Three Little Kittens over and over and over again. It was my favorite. 

Fast forward and the older I got the more in love with books I became. So, I'm admitting that I am a huge nerd. The only reading I don't like are those math word problems. And I'm okay with that because no one has ever asked me in real life... "If I give you two bananas and take away six apples, how long will it take the southbound train to collide with the northbound train if Johnny left his house at midnight?" It just doesn't happen. 

So, yeah, books are my thing. 

Oh and music. All kinds.  Love. It.

AMOUR AMOUR by Krista & Becca Ritchie

I love KBR. They are one of my TOP favourite authors and they have a new standalone romance coming this December. This book will be one of my highly anticipated book for 2014. If you haven't read their ADDICTED series than you have been MISSING out. Seriously get ready to be addicted. One of my 5 STARS series. I highly recommend them.


Synopsis


Love is a circus 

"Every day,” he says lowly, “I hold a person’s life in my hands. The circus is based one-hundred percent off of trust. I give it all to someone, and they give it all to me.” 

The best aerial technique won’t land 21-year-old Thora James her dream role in Amour—a sexy new acrobatic show on the Vegas strip. Thora knows she’s out of her element the second she meets Amour’s leading performer. Confident, charming and devilishly captivating, 26-year-old Nikolai Kotova aggravatingly lives up to his nickname as the “God of Russia.” 

When Thora unknowingly walks into the crosshairs of Nikolai’s after-show, her audition process begins way too soon. Unprofessional. That’s what Nik calls their “non-existent” relationship. It’s not like Thora can avoid him. For one, they may be partners in the future—acrobatic partners, that is. But getting closer to Nik means diving deeper into sin city and into his dizzying world. 

Thora wants to perform with him, but when someone like Nikolai attracts the spotlight wherever he goes—Thora fears that she’s destined to be “just background” to his spellbinding show. 

This sexy and exhilarating New Adult Romance can best be described as Cirque du Soleil meets the steamy, athletic romance of Center Stage

*standalone & no love triangles—recommended for readers 18+ for mature content*


RELEASE DATE: DECEMBER 12, 2014

COVER REVEAL: BURYING WATER by K.A. TUCKER


THIS BOOK SOUNDS FREAKING FANTASTIC. I CAN'T WAIT TO READ THIS BOOK!!!




Synopsis

The top-selling, beloved indie author of Ten Tiny Breaths returns with a new romance about a young woman who loses her memory—and the man who knows that the only way to protect her is to stay away.

Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survives—but she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to “Jane Doe” for another day, the woman renames herself “Water” for the tiny, hidden marking on her body—the only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbor, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why won’t Ginny let him step foot on her property? And why does Water feel she recognizes him?

Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesn’t know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that she’ll stay so much safer—and happier—that way. And that’s why, as hard as it is, he needs to keep his distance. Because getting too close could flood her with realities better left buried.

The trouble is, water always seems to find its way to the surface.

THERAPY by Kathryn Perez


Synopsis
I’m needy.

I’m broken.

Cutting breaks through my numbness, but only opens more wounds.

Depression, self-harm, bullying....that's my reality.

Sex and guys....that's my escape.

The space between the truth and lies is blurred leaving me torn, lost and confused. And while the monsters that live in my head try to beat me-- the two men that I love try to save me.

This is my story of friendship, heartache, and the grueling journey that is mental-illness.

Sometimes you have to get lost in order to be found…



Review

I was completely unprepared for the vast number of emotions Therapy put me through. I knew it not a light book from off the bat nonetheless still knowing that didn't prepare me for angst and pain filled in each word. No one can put to words what this book did to me certainly I can't. I needed THERAPY. It was just the book I needed. 

I need to pour my emotions on a blank white canvas, splash the dark colours on to it and release my hurt, my anger, my happiness, my tears and little bit of me added in the mix creating the masterpiece of what Therapy brought out in me.

When we hit the point of rock bottom in life, we suppress any bit of happiness in our lives. We push people away who mean a lot. You keep making mistakes. You take up bad habits. Make bad decisions and in the end you start hating yourself. Loving yourself is important because only than you can love another person without reservations. Only when you truly see yourself with all the flaws that glare at you every second and love all of them, only than you will able to see the person who accepts and loves the whole package that is you. 

This book did a number on me. I cried so much when I finished it. It was like a dam broke and whatever is in me bursted out trying to get some air. There was so much emotion and depth packed into this book I just couldn't stop reading. I was thrown face first into the pool of pain. It shook me, tied me, unhinged me and caressed me. There was love, hate, pain and happiness mixed in a potion that I inhaled in and keep reliving. 

Jessica's pain reminds me of my own pain. At some points in our lives we have all been bullied but Jessica has been bullied to point where she cuts her self, hates herself, sells her self short. In her mind her self worth is lays at the very bottom. Where everyone walks all over her. She has a lot of issues that she needs to overcome. Than there is Jace who's this charming, good looking young man who's the boyfriend of the mean girl. The popular girl that seems to hate her guts for no good reason but the fact that she is mean, hateful person. 

This is Jessica's story of growing up and overcoming her fears. When Jessica stops being the punching bag and says enough is enough. This is a story of a young girl who has been bullied and starts living her life to the fullest and not just hoping it all ends waiting in the sidelines. 

The writing, poetry is a beautiful. The story hits home. Makes a point. Breaks you and than mends you. Join Jessica in her journey and get Therapy. 

★★★★★

5 THERAPY STARS!

MEET LESLEY


I was born and raised in a small working class town in Essex, just outside of East London. I am married with three sons and in 2006 we all moved to the other side of the world, settling on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, about 50K outside of Melbourne Australia. It's a whole new way of life for us down here, we are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world.

I am currently a stay at home mum but in the past I have worked at Marks & Spencer, as a classroom assistant/teachers aid and have run my business.

As well as writing, I love to read and have been known to get through four or five books a week. My other interests are watching my boys play football...The round ball version. I am happy to admit to being an addict of social media and I owe a lot to my Facebook and Twitter family in promoting my work. I am also rather partial to a glass... or bottle of wine, a nicely chilled Marlborough Sav Blanc being my favorite. Being a born and raised Essex girl, I will happily admit to be being a big fan of spray tans, Shellac and am regularly, waxed, tinted and sculpted, although I am more likely to be found in thongs/flipflops than a pair of white stilettos these days.
