Author: BJ Harvey
Expected Release: Jan 30th
Hosted by: The Book Avenue



Long before he moved to New York to protect Elle Halliwell, Shay McCarron felt like a drifter. 

Working with his best friend, Brax, he took whatever job he could get to survive until mob boss, Victor Bertorelli, offered them both the opportunity of a lifetime, a life line. 

Now working security and close protection for some of Georgia’s richest families, the boys are living the high life. High profile jobs, nights of easy women, and copious alcohol...with their very lucrative, if not slightly illegal occupation, the boys think they’re sitting pretty. 

Brenna, the youngest daughter of mob boss, Victor Bertorelli, hates her family’s mob ties, their morals, the whole damn thing. She wants to get as far away from them and the notorious Bertorelli name as she can. 

Until the blonde haired, green eyed, cocky as hell Shay storms into her life and succeeds in capturing her attention, and her heart.

Unfortunately, it’s the very world they live in that will tear them apart forever. 

Get to know the history of the best friend who gave his all in the highly acclaimed Lost series.


Shay

After waiting ten minutes in Victor’s kitchen, and another ten minutes in my car as it rumbled loudly in the driveway, the princess is finally seated in the black leather bucket seat beside me, arms crossed and looking none too happy about her predicament. 

“You going to sit there and pout like a spoiled brat not getting her own way, or you actually going to talk to me?” I look over at the raven haired woman in my passenger seat who still has my groin tight and my breath lost. 

She looks my way and scowls. “I don’t even know your name! And anyway, why would I want to talk to one of my father’s underlings who probably doesn’t know his head from his ass? Hell, even your hot ass muscle car is probably paid for with dirty fucking money.” She smirks, and I see it—that spark. The fire that I saw burning in her eyes this morning when we met. 

I stop at an intersection and wait for the traffic lights to change. “Seems there are a few things we need to clear up, cupcake. My name is Shay, and this hot ass muscle car is mine and mine alone. No dirty fucking money involved. And I can assure you right now, I definitely know my head from my ass. You know what else?” I lean in towards her ear. “I also know where your ass and head are, and right now one is stuck so far up the other, it’s a wonder you don’t need breath mints.”

Cover Reveal-Then There Was You by Melanie Dawn



https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxAaDM-Usy9oNlpXSofR0otz5pSojqr4jtbdN9cq22Ey1yK_AYeh6qoqrjo3h_ui2Ee_nGnuq-yx0qnGLAbayCrkR6V3g9UvF9qgbIJ9EYuGN0oCgcoWemwCjMpdQtIIfwwBzLUldL7c5H/s1600/synopsis.png
Chris King never saw it coming…

In some ways, closing the book on my first love was the worst day

of life. I was gutted, and yet I was completely at peace with my

decision. I walked away knowing that I did what was best for her,

unsure if I could ever recover. Little did I know that one concert

would change the entire course of my life. There I stood, signing

autographs and snapping pictures with fans when a familiar face

in the crowd catapulted my mind back in time—Salem Honeycutt,

once a balm to my pain and a calm in my storm. Yet again, her

smiling face gave me hope. Only one question remained: did she

still see me as a wayward teenage boy who was completely off

limits, or could she see the man I'd become…focused and driven,

yearning for another chance at love?

For Salem Honeycutt, postpartum bliss seemed like a lie...

No one told me that I’d hate my baby when I brought her home

from the hospital. No one told me that I’d want to put a pillow

over my husband’s head and smother him in his sleep. No one told

me that I’d want to slap every person who gave me the ever-so-
cliché advice to ‘cherish every moment.’ No one told me that I’d

despise my life the minute I became a mother, but I did. Then I

met Chris King, the kid who made me want to pull myself up from

the dark recesses of my mind and face each day. This kid, whose

passion for life and talent for music, touched my soul deeper

than I could ever touch his. Chris gave me a reason to live. I was

once affectionately known as Mrs. H., Chris’s juvenile detention

counselor. This is our story.

Melanie Dawn is a thinker, a dreamer, and a hopeless romantic.

When her head isn't in the clouds, she spends her time as a jack

of all trades to her family. Melanie resides in the hills of North

Carolina with her husband, her three children, and her cat. She

enjoys lazy summer afternoons cruising around the lake on the

pontoon boat with her family.

Melanie graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill with a BA in

Psychology and earned her MA in School Counseling from

Appalachian State University. She spent the first six years after

graduate school as a middle school counselor. Those were years

she deems as some of the best years of her life. That is, until she

had children of her own. The last seven years have been spent as

a stay-at-home mom. She has learned some tough life lessons,

like what the inner absorbent pellets of a diaper look like scattered

in the washing machine. She has also learned the strength of the

willpower of a two year old lacking a nap. Through it all, Melanie

has learned how to roll with the punches and appreciate the time

she has been able to spend at home with her children.

Now that her last child has started Kindergarten, Melanie is ready

to add a new chapter in her life. That chapter begins with her debut

novel—So Much It Hurts.

It All Started with a Lima Bean

It All Started With a Lima Bean (Intertwined Hearts, #1)It All Started With a Lima Bean by Kimi Flores
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

OMG, this has got to be one of the sweetest stories I have ever read. It has made me laugh cry and then laugh some more.

I was given this book in preparation for an ARC from this series and o boy was I surprised. This was so sweetly romantic I loved it.
This is a story that starts out sad but ends greatly.
Caleb is a single father who loses his wife and is struggling to get his life together for the sake of his daughter, Abby is a woman who has had a little trouble with men growing up. Madison is the cutest daughter ever.
This story has family,friends and love, life and a little bit of drama all rolled into a sweet story.
Can't wait till the next installment...
