About Domino Effect: One small movement can impact the rest of your life, like a set of dominoes lined up one after another. It’s not until you step back and see the big picture that you realize the damage you’ve done…   Brandt Mattox had it all—love, success, and friends. One impulsive wrong decision led him down a path that ended in a prison of regrets. He now only dreams of the happiness he once had before the consequences of his actions cost him everything.   He lost his love—not just any love, but his soul mate.   Nikola Kingston has worked hard to keep the past in the past while she focuses on her career and spending time with her grandmother. On a random night, she runs into the one man who will forever hold her heart captive. Her heart knows she still loves Brandt, but her mind cannot forget the dreadful night that cost her the love of her life.   Will the domino effect of Brandt’s and Nikola’s decisions be too much to overcome? Or will the love they never thought they would get back have an everlasting effect? 


Pageflex Persona [document: PRS0000032_00043]

Exclusive Excerpt: “If I had to wait another day, I was coming to get you. I’ve done it before.” It was true. I would have started driving this morning. I moved an inch forward and a police officer held up his hands for me to stop. I complied. Police were out to keep people for idling too long in front. The officer blew his whistle and signaled for us to keep going. I pressed the gas, but we were moving at a snail’s pace due to the congestion. Nikola pulled the scarf down; she was smiling. “I remember. You came to get me during the last ice storm, three years ago, when I was stranded on Stone Mountain. I was at that conference and the company had put me up in a cabin. You ended up staying with me when they closed the roads for two days. Do you remember—” Abruptly, Nikola stopped and turned to face the window. I finished her sentence with memories of my own. “I remember making love to you in front of the fireplace in that cabin. I remember what it felt like to be inside you. I remember having you as mine. I remember it was the first time we said, “I love you” to each other. Is that what you were talking about?” Every chance I got, I’d remind Nikola of how happy we were—even though she seemed to remember everything, too. She turned my way as we continued to inch along in the baggage claim traffic. “It would be impossible to forget.”

Frozen Cover


synopsis 

 Neala Clarke is a woman of her word, when she gives you it, expect her to deliver. Neala gave her niece Charli her word that she would get her a doll for Christmas. Never mind that there is only one week until Christmas and everywhere that stocked toys is practically sold out. Neala gave her word that she would get that doll for Charli, so she will move mountains to make it happen. Darcy Hart is a people pleaser, when he is asked last minute for a doll by his adorable six year old nephew Dustin, he of course, says yes. However, Darcy faces a dilemma, the particular doll he needs is sold out everywhere. Darcy makes one last attempt to get the doll at a local toy store, and finds out they have only one left in stock, but he also finds out he is not the only person interested in claiming the doll. Neala and Darcy go way back, playing in each other’s play pens kind of way back. They are not friends, more like mortal enemies, and both of them wanting a single doll was the start of a series of events that no one could have predicted, not even Father Christmas himself.

Frozen Teaser #1


excerpt


It all happened in slow motion. Darcy was shouting at me from inside of the tunnel one minute, and the next his upper body disappeared as the roof of the snow tunnel collapsed in on top of him. It literally collapsed on top of him and now he wasn't moving. At all. For at least twenty seconds I did nothing but stare at him then my senses kicked into overdrive. "Darcy!" I screamed, and threw my blanket off my body as I rushed over to him. I licked my lips and stared down at his body with wide eyes, and shaking limbs. My heart was slamming into my chest, and each pulse got louder and louder. I could hear each beat my heart took and my ears rang with the noise. "Darcy!" I shouted hoping he would make a noise from under the snow or at least move his legs. Nothing. Not a sound or kick from him. I really started to worry then, the thought of him drowning crossed my mind. I mean, snow was made of water and he was buried under the snow, which meant he was technically under water right now. Fuck. I had to save him. I dropped my candle to the ground and ignored it as the glass bowl that encased the candle smashed causing it to blow out. It was darker now, but the rest of the candles along the hallway were still lit so I could see pretty well. "Darcy, don't worry!" I shouted. "I'm gonna get you out of there!" I dropped to my knees and began to scoop handfuls of snow off his body. I threw the snow onto the pile Darcy created while digging the tunnel off to my right, but I had to stop because my hands hurt with the cold. I instead moved to Darcy legs and gripped onto them and pulled. I pulled with all of my might and the idiot's body only slightly moved. "Move!" I shouted and pulled at his legs again. I held onto Darcy with every fibre of strength I had and pulled again, and by the grace of God, his body moved. It actually moved. I was strong! "Yes!" I cheered. I scrambled up to Darcy's back when his shoulders became visible. I placed my hands on both of them and pulled as hard as physically possible, the wet floor under Darcy made him slide which made things so much easier for me and my arms. "You're out!" I cheered. Darcy was gasping for air so I rolled him over so he could suck in as much air as he needed. His eyes were closed, but his body was shaking. I instinctively placed my hands on his arms, directly on his biceps. His firm biceps. Stop it. I began to rub up and down very fast hoping to generate some heat for Darcy to ease his shivering. All the rubbing was pointless though, unless I got him up off the cold wet floor he would just get sick. "Darcy, stand up," I said. He didn't move, nor did he reply to me. That worried me. I looked to Darcy's face and found his eyes were still closed. I looked down to his chest and saw it was moving up and down which relaxed me immensely. "Darcy!" I said loudly, shaking him. "Darcy!" Einstein called from the kitchen. I screeched, "Shut up, Einstein!" Stupid bloody bird. I looked back down to Darcy when I thought I heard him chuckle, but I was mistaken because he was motionless with his eyes still closed. This wouldn't do, I had to wake him up because we'd be stuck in this house if he didn't fix the tunnel and continue to dig so we could get out of here. Was that selfish? "Darcy!" I shouted and shook him, hard. He groaned and it caused my pulse to spike. "Neala?" he croaked. He was alive! "Yes, Darcy, it's Neala. I'm here. It's okay, I saved you." I was so proud of myself for saving him, too. "Neala," he gasped my name again, and this time it was followed by a cough. I frowned down at him. Why was he coughing? "Are you okay?" I asked, genuinely concerned for his well being. Darcy coughed again. "I don't think so... everything is fading." Oh, my God. Fading? As in fading to black? "Don't you die and leave me here alone!" I snapped at him. I may have still hated him close to ninety percent, but I didn't want him to die... I also didn't want to be left on my own with just Einstein for company. "I'm... I'm dying... Neala." Oh, no. "You can't be, you weren't under the snow for that long- Darcy!" I screeched and shook him when he started to go limp. "Neala," he gasped. "Come closer." I couldn't believe what was happening. This was not how things were supposed to end, we were supposed to get out of here... together. "I'm here, Darcy," I said and swallowed back a sob that wanted to escape. Darcy's breathing slowed. "I can see the light," he whispered. I blinked back tears. "Go to the light, Darcy." Darcy gasped for breath, then all of sudden everything stopped. His movement. His breathing. His everything. Oh, no. "Darcy?" I whispered. Nothing. Oh, my God. "Please don't be dead," I said then released the sob that was dying to be let out. I stared down at Darcy's face, and I couldn't believe what just happened. He died in my arms. What was I going to do? I never even told him I was sorry for giving him the runs, or for all the other times I was a bitch to him, and now I would never get the chance. I felt like dirt. I began to cry, but Darcy's body suddenly twitched then he inhaled sharply, and loudly. I blinked then widened my eyes in shock. "Darcy?" I whispered. Darcy blinked opened his big brown eyes. He was alive! "Am I in Heaven?" he asked. He thought he was dead! Darcy blinked his eyes a couple of times then he flicked his eyes to mine and he stared at me for a long moment before he sighed. "Nope, not Heaven. This must be Hell if you're here," he said, his face was as serious as if he just told me someone had a heart attack. I stared down at him then narrowed my eyes. Ex-fucking-cuse me? "What?" I asked, completely confused. Darcy looked at me then burst out laughing. Laughing! I gasped and dropped him to the floor. He grunted in pain, but continued to laugh. That... that fucking bastard! He played me. "You joked about dying?" I screeched. Who does that?

Author: Carmen Jenner
Publisher: Carmen Jenner
Genre: Adult, Dark Romance
Cover Designer: Cover It! Designs
Release Date: January 26, 2015


Synopsis

When I was ten, my father indoctrinated me into the family.

A brotherhood who would fight, protect, and give their lives for one another. A club whose ties ran thicker than blood, murkier than the dirt and grime that tainted my soul. Stronger than the bonds that connected me to my own family.

A band of brothers, where loyalty was kept and paid in a currency of blood.

When I was twenty-seven, I betrayed that brotherhood.

I’ve spent every day since running, avoiding paying back that debt.

My name is Daniel Johnson.  I have betrayed everyone I ever loved. 

And I’ll betray her too.

This is my story—if you’re screwed up enough to want to read it.

Warning: KICK contains graphic violence, profanity, drug use, and explicit sexual situations of a taboo nature. Intended for an 18+ audience only. Not intended for pussies.

ABOUT EASY LOVE: Eli Boudreaux’s family has built ships and boats in Louisiana for generations. He comes from a hardworking, wealthy family and his empire is growing by leaps and bounds. At thirty, he is the youngest CEO to ever head Bayou Enterprises, co-chairing with his eldest brother. His head for business and his no-nonsense work ethic is also quickly making him the best the company has seen in generations. His staff admires him, women adore him and Eli’s family is solid. But he’s recently discovered that someone on the inside of his business is stealing from him and he’s determined to find out who. Kate O’Shaughnessy is hired by companies all over the world to slip inside and investigate every member of the organization from the CEO down to the custodial staff to find the person or persons responsible for embezzling. She’s excellent at blending, becoming part of the team, and finding the weakest link. She’s smart, quick-witted, and she’s now been hired by Bayou Enterprises, specifically Eli Boudreaux. The attraction is immediate and the chemistry is off the charts, but Kate has heard all about Eli’s playboy past and she has a job to do. Sleeping with the boss isn’t a part of that job, even if just the sound of her name rolling off that Cajun tongue and the way he fills out a designer suit does make her sweat. Eli’s southern charms surprise Kate. The man whose reputation labels him as a ruthless, callous womanizer is not the man she’s coming to know intimately. He’s generous, protective and makes her smile. Cracking through Kate’s cool, reserved demeanor and discovering her love of sexy, expensive lingerie is a challenge Eli can’t resist, but her sweet nature, love of family and sense of humor pull at him in ways no one else ever has. But when the person responsible for trying to single-handedly dismantle Eli’s empire comes to light, and it’s time for Kate to move on, to what lengths will Eli go to keep the woman he’s fallen in love with by his side?
