Hello, Muses!
This is going to be a more laid back week for me-- no review, but I will be posting three cover reveals this week, one of which went live yesterday and a release day blast/blitz. So stay tuned for the rest of the posts this week.
Next week I will be posting my review for Fighting to Forget, the third book in the amazing Fighting series by JB Salsbury. Very excited to share my thoughts with everyone.
Congrats to Amanda for winning the Last Breath paperback and Jolanda for winning the e-book copy! It was a very successfully giveaway and blog tour and authors Jessica Clare and Jen Frederick sends their regards to everyone!
There are quite a few interesting releases this week. As I already mentioned, Fighting to Forget by JB Salsbury is out today. In Young Adult, I am sure everyone is excited for the anticipated release of the new Blood of Eden novel, The Forever Song by Julie Kagawa. While I did see most of the Oscar nominated movies, I missed a few, so I can't wait to check out Philomena and the buzzed about Secret Life of Walter Mitty. If you're looking for laughs, you may want to see Ride Along with Kevin Hart and Ice Cube. I heard it was hilarious. And if you are a fan of BBC shows, the second season of Ripper Street is available today.
enjoy,mia
Ace, The (Men of the Show, #2)
by: Rhonda Shaw
“Love ’em and leave ’em” has been real estate agent Karen Bently’s motto for as long as she can remember. She doesn’t need a man, except to make her toes curl. Or so she thought, until her longtime crush, Ace pitcher Jerry Smutton, sets his sights on her.
After signing one of the largest baseball contracts in history with the Detroit Rockets, Jerry enlists Karen to help him find the house of his dreams. Their connection is instant and electric, but neither of them is the relationship type. When Jerry proposes a friends-with-benefits arrangement, that suits Karen just fine.
Passionate sleepovers soon turn into long, romantic evenings… Still, Karen and Jerry refuse to acknowledge they’re a couple. Karen insists that she’s immune to Jerry’s heart-melting charm. Jerry’s not ready to settle down. Denial is the name of the game, until one pitch changes everything…

Billionaire Biker, The (Billionaire Club, #3)
by: Jackie Ashenden
The Billionaire’s Club: a fabulously sexy contemporary series about some of the world’s wealthiest, most powerful men and the women they claim…and keep. Wild and reckless, and more at ease with his biker gang than his business partners, Sean Morrow has always longed for Abigail Prescott, whose life he ruined when an innocent friendship turned into a night of red-hot passion back when they were in high school. Now that his brother, Jax, has decided to hire Abby to work for the Morrows, Sean can no longer ignore his old demons—or his desire. It took Abby time to get over Sean Morrow…and then he walked back into her life. And even though she can’t forget the pain, she can’t stop fantasizing about their one erotic encounter…and she still craves his touch. What she feels for Sean is deeper than need. It’s pure, blind lust—and the feeling is mutual…

Sensing their unspoken wounds, Sonja agrees to take a chance on a threesome. Their union is explosively perfect, but something is holding Levi back from sealing their searing emotional connection. Something that could destroy their love once and for all…

Fighting to Forget (Fighting, #3)
by: JB Salsbury
Every fighter is drawn to the violence, the release that a perfect hit can bring.
But very few are drawn to the pain.
Rex Carter lives behind a wall of indifference. The demons from his childhood act as an anesthetic, keeping him distant from emotional connections. Only the ache from a knock to the jaw, sting of a tattoo needles, or heat from a piercing, can jolt him back from the numbness. The fiery pain is all he can feel, and nothing compares to the burn.
Or so he thought.
Working in a Las Vegas bar isn't Georgia McIntyre's dream. But she hopes it'll be an end to the nightmare.
Over a decade she's watched him. Followed his career and kept tabs, all in preparation for this moment. To make amends, repair the wrong. But she didn't count on the feelings that seeing him again would stir up. The vacant look in his stormy-blue eyes, his perfect body now mutilated by ink and metal.
And she knows why. She's lived his pain, every single day, since the day he left.
Changed by time, Rex doesn't remember the girl from his past. If only she could do the same.
Will she get the absolution she's spent her life seeking?
Or will he continue, Fighting to Forget.
