BLURB:

From USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ashley Jade comes a gritty, off-limits romance about mistakes, choices, and love conquering all.

He was the mysterious dark knight always swooping in to save me when I needed it most.

I was the troubled girl with scars and a bleeding heart.

He was the gifted guitarist destined for big things.

I was the small-town girl battling her demons.

He was my earth….always keeping me grounded.

And I was his sky…always just out of his reach.

Our love was everything I wished for.

Until I destroyed it.

I never thought I’d see Memphis Payne again after I broke his heart, but the stars had other plans.

Because here he is…needing me to clean up his mess this time.

Only problem is…

Doing so will break both our hearts.

They say only the strongest love can survive an apocalypse.

That if two people are meant to be, they’ll find their way back to each other.

I hope they’re right.

★Review★
Memphis was enchanted by his new neighbor Skylar from the first time he met her when he was a teenager. He knew that she was everything he wanted however the feelings he had for her she had for his foster brother Josh which begins a long and painful journey as he puts her wants first with devastating results.

Skylar has a difficult past and the present situation is even worse. She has never had the support she needed to understand and fight for what she deserves. She and Josh became closer over a trauma that they have both endured so she just overlooks everything he does not prepared to acknowledge the feelings she has for Memphis and that he has for her.

Skylar is a woman whose actions may be understandable but have hurt the one person who cares deeply for her while Memphis has learned that the only way to protect himself is by letting people so close and no further. Experiencing the backstory of these two damaged characters leave us wanting the rest of their story.

I’m about to lose everything.

My home. My name. My future.

My husband was involved in something that could cost us our lives, and on his deathbed, he demands my daughter and I flee Britain.

I had no idea he found her biological father, Holden James, in Rose Canyon, and that’s where we’d start over.

The moment we see each other, feelings I’d long forgotten rush over me. Holden doesn’t hesitate to care for us. We find ourselves reaching for each other, even when we should hold back. His smile warms me, his arms protect me, and against my better judgment, I fall for him. All the possibilities of a future are threatened by a looming past.

I’m being hunted, and it’s just a matter of time before someone finds me guilty of crimes I didn’t commit. Whatever trouble my husband was involved in won’t evade me forever.

I am trying to keep my promise and stay for Holden, but I don’t know how long it’ll be before we have to run.

My name was Sophie Pearson, but I vanished, just like my hope to ever find love again.

💚Review💚
The life that Sophie and her daughter Rose are living is about to be turned upside down as they are about to face not only the death of her husband and best friend but the danger that is going to come with it. She isn’t certain why he sent her to Rose Canyon until she sees Holden, the man she spent one steamy evening with and the man who also happens to be the father of her daughter.

Holden is surprised to see Sophie but even more surprised to find out he has a daughter. The one thing he does know is that not only will be the man and father they need but he will do whatever is necessary to protect her from escalating danger of her past.

Suspense and romance combine as Sophie and Holden are reunited. The more time they spend together the more the dormant feelings they have for each other continues to grow as they face the challenges and the danger and prove that as long as they are together they can overcome anything.

Blurb:

I wanted to be a painter. But that’s just a dream because a mafia princess doesn’t get to choose her future.

Still, I never let it get me down. I always try to make the best of everything.

Until I’m forced to go for brutal training, and I meet Nikolai Vetrov.

Forbidden and way too attractive, the man turns out to be my worst nightmare incarnated.

He’s cold and ruthless, and I’m pretty sure there’s no heart to be found in his chest, unlike mine that won’t stop beating overtime at the mere sight of him.

Just because I flirted with him, he’s dead set on making my life as miserable as possible.

And as if the hell I’ve been thrown into isn’t enough, the worst thing possible happens to me. It strips me of my light and drops me into a darkness so suffocating there’s no way for me to escape

There’s a lot I can endure and overcome, but the trauma and Nikolai Vetrov are two things I can’t handle. One of them is bound to be the end of me.

Unless a miracle happens, and let’s face it, I’m well past the point of believing in miracles.

EXCERPT:

“What a mess,” the woman said, brushing at her coat with the napkin Sassy handed to her. “I’m not usually such a klutz.” She gave up dabbing at the cider soaking into the white cashmere and looked to Bo again. “Thank you for catching me before I fell. I’m Juniper, by the way. Juniper Haynes.”

“Juniper,” Bo mumbled, finally managing to gain a miniscule amount of control over his tongue. However, his heart pounded so fast and loud, it echoed like a bongo drum in his head.

“That’s an awesome name,” Sassy said, with the enthusiasm summoned by a teenager impressed by someone older and more worldly. “I’m Sassy, and this is Bo Jensen.”

Juniper’s smile widened as she looked up at him. Even with her high-heeled boots, she barely came up to his chest. Then again, at six-four, he tended to tower over a lot of people.

“Sassy and Bo. It’s so nice to meet you. Thank you, again, for catching me. Happy Christmas Eve.” Juniper turned away and took a lopsided step, but her foot slid on a patch of hidden ice. She would have fallen if Bo hadn’t caught her a second time, his arms looping beneath hers from the back. She tilted her face upward and offered him a look of gratitude.

Something that felt like an electrical current trailed up his arms, threatening to short circuit what few working brain cells he had left.

Words.

He needed words.

To speak—to say anything—but nothing seemed to be able to work its way from his overloaded brain to his mouth. The sharp elbow Sassy jabbed into his side didn’t help any more than her questioning glare to rattle something loose.

Bo stared at the woman, fascinated.

Juniper.

What an intriguing name for an entirely captivating woman.

❄️Review❄️
Between the ranch and his sleigh tours it doesn’t leave Bo much room or energy for romance especially since he is also responsible for his younger sister. When Juniper comes crashing into his life he is drawn to her despite the fact that he doesn’t believe they have a future together but how could something that feels so right be wrong?

When Juniper decides to visit her sister and brother-in-law for Christmas, she begins to realize that she may have a successful career as a realtor but not much else. Spending time with Bo shows her what her life could be like if she opens her heart to the possibilities.

This is a heartwarming story about love and family as with the help of each other and those closest to them Bo and Juniper realize what truly matters

I loved her when she was just a splattering of freckles and big brown eyes.

When she brought an extra sugar cookie just for me in the first grade.

When our class goldfish died and she held me in front of everyone until I stopped crying.

I loved her even more when she had another man’s baby.

But I hate her for what she did, a chess move in a game of unforgivable sin. I hate myself even more for what I’m going to do to her. I wanted her gone, but I was the one who left. Now, I’ve returned, and I have no intention of leaving again.

This is my campus, and it’s time to pay for your sins, little mouse, because I am a vicious king.

— Molly —

I loved him the first day I met him on the playground, when he was all gangly elbows and knees.

When we buried our toes in the sandbox and pretended we didn’t have legs.

On our first day of middle school when he smiled at me across the quad.

He was my white knight, my protector, the one who always made sure I was okay.

But that boy’s dead and gone, and I killed him.

I can’t undo what happened.

I never meant to hurt him. I never meant to hurt anyone.

I was the nudge that toppled the dominos.

Defending by Jami Davenport releases on January 24th!
https://geni.us/Defending
Available on All Platforms

Much to my utter dismay, the Portland Icehawks chose me in the expansion draft, and now my estranged father is my hockey coach. No one on the team knows he’s my dad. They think he’s a distant relative I don’t get along with. They’re right about that last part. We hate each other. He blames me for the death of my sister, and I blame myself, too. He’s unfairly targeted me, and his constant criticism is destroying my confidence and my game.

The only thing I look forward to is my time spent working with the homeless, especially one feisty, attractive female, but neither of us do relationships because those require trust and commitment, and we’re too scarred to take the risk.

Can we conquer our demons so I can rescue her from the streets, and she can rescue me from my past?
