Title:Broken Souls
Series:Primani Book 1
Author:Laurie Olerich




Synopsis:

Broken Souls is the first standalone book in the Primani series. It’s a dark romantic suspense that layers a decades-old murder with chilling demon possession on top of two broken people who must somehow heal wounds too deep to see the light of day.






Book Blurb: 

Rori Austin’s life is over. She just doesn’t know it yet. Orphaned as a toddler and raised in foster homes, she’s had a pretty crappy life so far. Since turning 24, she’s been plagued by terrifying nightmares that leave her gasping with a hunger she doesn’t understand. Alone and broke, she’s struggling to make it one day at a time. When she blacks out and wakes up in 1969, she knows something is desperately wrong. 
Declan Manning is Primani, an immortal soldier charged with keeping demons under control. Lucky for Rori, he’s in the right place at the right time. After saving her life, he vanishes with no intention of coming back. The last thing he needs is a woman in his life. But his intentions can’t override his instincts. Something is wrong with this woman. Something that will get her killed. When he looks into her eyes, he knows there’s no walking away from her.
The clock is ticking on more than Rori’s life--her soul’s been marked for Hell, and the demon is ready to collect. As Rori’s secrets are revealed, Dec’s stunned to realize she’s so much more than human and he will do anything to keep her by his side.

Teaser:

Dec’s eyes met hers from across the room, and he refused to let her go. Could she accept him for the killer he was? She truly didn’t know. His jaw tightened as though he read her thoughts, but he didn’t break eye contact. A beautiful soul? Well, he was certainly beautiful on the outside. But then so were leopards… and they ate people. She shivered as she remembered the feel of his teeth on her neck…


About The Author:

I love to create guilty pleasures full of exciting locations, rollercoaster action, strong, quirky heroines, and steaming hot heroes who'll raise the temperature in any room you're in! Paranormal romance? Check! Urban fantasy? Check! Romantic suspense? Check! My Primani series combines the best of the three. When I'm not plotting, writing, or fantasizing about my next hero, I'm planning parties, traveling, and spending lazy nights with my son, my Dal pals, and my friends. Thank you so much for taking a chance on a new author and picking up my story! I hope you'll fall in love with the Primani world as much as I have.

Release Blitz: Thicker Than Blood By:Madeline Sheehan and Claire C. Riley

10754834_10205320148704901_502287080_n

A true friendship never dies.

Leisel and Evelyn lost everything. Husbands. Families. Friends. Lives that made sense. All they had left was each other, and a friendship that could withstand anything…
Even an apocalypse.
Until one fateful night, the marginal safety they’d come to rely on comes to a vicious and brutal end. With the help of Alex & Jami, both unlikely allies, Leisel and Evelyn are able to escape their shattered sanctuary only to find themselves face-to-face with a much altered, much crueler life where they have to find the way—and the will—to stay alive in a world they no longer recognize.
Traveling across a broken and infection-ridden country; the road-weary group are pitted against endless violence, improbable circumstances, and the ultimate loss. Everything comes at a price—especially safety, the cost of which could very well strip them of the one thing they’ve tried so hard to cling to: their humanity.
Yet along with all the trials they’re forced to endure, there’s also hope in the form of love. Having loved Leisel from afar, Alex attempts to put the pieces of her fractured heart back together.
But in such a savage world, is there room for love?
In a place of nightmares-made-reality, where the living should be feared far more than the dead, an unbreakable friendship and a love amongst all odds can mean the difference between life and death.
There are friends…
And then there are Leisel and Evelyn.

Synopsis



They say there's a fine line between love and hate.


There is.

I married a douchebag.

I didn't know it at the time.

He came in like a handsome stranger and blew me off my feet.

I fell madly in love, like the naive girl I am.

Then he left me high and dry.

Turns out, I was nothing more than a business plan for billionaire playboy, Marcus Tandem.

He needed to be married in order to obtain his grandfathers business, and I was the poor victim in his path.

I believed in what we had, until the truth reared its ugly head.

I never meant anything to Marcus. Not a damned thing.

With my world spinning on its axis, the girl I once was has long since died.

Instead he left me as this empty, emotionless shell.

I may have made a vow before God to love and cherish him ‘Til Death do we part, but it’s time for me to give back to Marcus, exactly what he gave me.

He has to pay.

And pay he will.

Release Blitz: Total Submission By: Roxy Sloane





Synopsis
Her secrets are tearing us apart, but I can't give up on us yet.

When I'm with her, the beast inside of me is tamed.  My every craving sated by her gentle touch.

I won't let her go without a fight.

No matter what the cost, I will protect her.  She belongs to me now.

*Part 3 of the sensual suspenseful new serial*


Excerpt
“You need me,” I whisper in her ear. I slip a hand between her thighs, stroking a fingertip over the damp lace of her panties and the heat of her core. “You want me to order you down on your knees right now, command you to suck my cock. You want me to dominate you, my darling, because that’s the most alive you’ve ever felt before. And I can give it to you. I can give you what you need.”

She sways against me with a breathy sigh – not surrendering, but not resisting either.

“So don’t fight it,” I tell her softly, stroking again. Fuck, she’s so wet for me. Ready for my fingers, my tongue, my cock. “Give in to me, Isabelle. Come home, where you belong. Where I can take care of you.”

I slip her panties aside and sink two fingers deep into her slick cunt as I claim her mouth in a kiss.

Isabelle moans into my mouth, arching against my hand. I plunge my fingers deeper, relishing the feeling of her yielding to me, surrendering to my will. My tongue probes her mouth as my fingers explore her tight wetness, and she opens, willingly. I can taste the champagne on her lips and feel the slickness of her desire.


Isabelle was made to be my sub. Made to be mine.

tpcteaser2 Exclusive Excerpt: Setup: Senator Shep Conover has just asked Congresswoman Grace Colton to consider being his vice presidential running mate in the 2016 presidential election. But before he’ll choose her, she must be vetted and coached by his political consultant, Jared Rankin—the stranger she thought was a one-night stand.     I hold the wingback chair for support and paste a smile on my face as I watch the senator leave the suite. That leaves me and Jared and a hell of a lot of silence. He picks up several thick manila files from a side table, perhaps the same ones I saw in his hotel room last night, and sits in the chair opposite me. His expression is unreadable. I remain standing. Fight or flight. That’s what I’m deciding as I lament there’s nothing in view that I could bludgeon Jared with. “Ms. Colton. Please, have a seat.” He gestures to the chair I’m supposed to occupy. “No.” I sound like a petulant child. “Grace—” “No! What the hell was that, Jared? What the fucking hell?” I bend to get in his face to really shout him into submission, but he grabs my wrist. I struggle but can’t break from his grasp. His deep brown eyes are smoldering with intensity, and I shoot as much hatred as I can from my eyes. I’m embarrassed. Mortified. This man who has seen me naked, who made me scream his name less than twelve hours ago, is now Ms. Colton-ing me like I’m his kid’s schoolteacher. That sends a shockwave to my gut. I know nothing about this man: not whether he’s married, or has a kid, or exactly what his business is here. Sensing that the fight’s left me, Jared drops my wrist and slowly stands. I hold my ground, standing toe to toe with him. His hair is combed neatly, but I remember the way my grasping fingers teased it into wild waves last night. His stubbled jaw remains. I fold my arms across my chest because my gray pantsuit and silk top aren’t doing the trick. My heels don’t boost me to an even height with Jared. His thumb brushes my lower lip and I gasp and take a step back. “Pouting doesn’t suit you. Tuck that lip back in.” “Don’t touch. I bite,” I snarl, angry that he’s mixed the familiarity from last night with the utter seriousness of this political opportunity. “So do I,” Jared says, taking another step toward me and forcing me to step back. “But you like it.” I bump into a wall covered in fancy wallpaper. Jared’s body cages me in. “You’re a bastard.” I’m even angrier he’s getting to me. I grab his shirt, ready to push him back, but he captures my wrists and slams them against the wall above my head. “I hear that a lot.” Jared’s body molds against me. I feel his erection hardening as he presses his hips into mine, and my traitorous body responds in turn, too eager to tip my hips at just the right angle. I can’t get the word bastard through my lips again when every cell in my body is screaming Encore! Encore! “How could you?” I hiss. “It’s what you wanted. No stories. No strings.” “But I’ve got a hell of a lot of regret.” I move to turn away from him, but Jared lowers his mouth toward mine. His lips land on my jaw and skim down my neck, his tongue explores the hollow of my throat then glides back up my neck to taste the soft skin behind my earlobe. I whimper and twist, but he just anchors me harder, both body and wrists. “You knew,” I hiss, trying to get my brain to focus on why I’m here, not the hardening length in his pants that has me rubbing against him like a freaking cat in heat. “You knew who I was and you let me … you let me humiliate myself.” I stifle a cry as his teeth come out, sinking into the flesh at the base of my neck. It stings, and the twinge heightens my need to retaliate, to touch him in all the ways he’s touching me. To drive us to release. His knee presses between mine and my legs part, my body in full meltdown. “You didn’t humiliate yourself. You just let go. Got out of your head for One. Fucking. Minute.” With each word his hips rock against mine until my core is aching to be filled again. My God, is he really going to make me come? With every stitch of clothing on? I struggle against his hold on me. “You knew who I am. You knew we could be working together!” “I didn’t go to the club expecting to pick you up, if that’s what you’re wondering.” His lips are inches from mine and his eyes narrow. The force in his expression nearly my undoing. “Bullshit. You were all about picking me up.” “And do you regret it?” Jared’s voice drops to a low, dangerous whisper. No! “Yes.” He drops my hands. Spins and strides to the opposite side of the room. I go cold. And fucking frustrated. He wound up my body so tight that I’m vibrating with tension, needing just a little more to take me over the edge. He gathers the folders and slides them inside a leather attaché case as if we’ve been sipping coffee for the last five minutes rather than slammed up against a wall. “Let’s go.” “Where?” “Your place.” I almost snap, imagining the relief he could offer to my wound-up state. But his face says all business. He looks at his watch. “We’ve got a long list on our agenda today. Your place is good enough to start.” tpcteaser About The Phoenix Candidate: the-phoenix-candidate-mediumFans of Scandal, House of Cards, and The Good Wife will love Grace Colton… Congresswoman Grace Colton is the most famous woman in politics—and the loneliest—until a drawling, sexy stranger offers her one night, no strings and no regrets. Grace wakes to an empty hotel room and a phone call: the dark horse for the 2016 presidential election, Senator Shep Conover, is considering her as his vice presidential running mate. But first, Grace must be vetted and coached by Shep’s political consultant, Jared Rankin, who already knows too many intimate details about her. He’s Mr. One-Night Stand. Grace is torn: Play nice with Jared to join the senator’s ticket, or play hardball and back the slick frontrunner? Grace must decide where her loyalties lie and if she can trust Jared with her future—and her heart. The Phoenix Candidate is an erotic romance set in the world of presidential election politics. Recommended for mature readers due to sharp dialogue, wickedly hot sex, and a few delicious taboos. This full-length novel is first in a series and can be read as a standalone.
