CRC - RB banner

“You can always count on Erin Nicholas for fun, sexy contemporary romance.”―Melissa Foster, New York Times bestselling author

Crazy Rich Cajuns, an all-new sexy, small town, opposites attract rom com from New York Times bestselling author Erin Nicholas, is coming September 30th!

CrazyRichCajunsNoTat300

He wears suits and ties. He’ll one day inherit a fortune. He has a law degree. He shines his shoes, for God’s sake. What is she doing attracted to a guy like him? But she is. She so is.

She drives air boats on the bayou, drinks and cusses, and gives city boys in suits a hard time just for fun. Why can’t he get her out of his mind? But he can’t. He definitely can’t.

A weekend trip to Savannah for a fancy-schmancy party with his highfalutin family is the surefire way to prove that they have nothing in common but intense chemistry. And to maybe scratch this I’ve-never-wanted-anyone-like-I-want-you itch once or twice. Or five times.

But it takes only about twenty-four hours for the bayou girl and the city boy to figure out that they don’t really know much at all–about each other, or about themselves. And figuring all of this out is going to be downright crazy.

About Erin Nicholas

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Erin Nicholas has been writing romances almost as long as she’s been reading them. To date, she’s written over thirty sexy, contemporary novels that have been described as “toe-curling,” “enchanting,” “steamy,” and “fun.” She adores reluctant heroes, imperfect heroines, and happily ever afters.

Erin lives in the Midwest, where she enjoys spending time with her husband (who only wants to read the sex scenes in her books), her kids (who will never read the sex scenes in her books), and her family and friends (who claim to be “shocked” by the sex scenes in her books).

Blog Tour w/Review: The Demons Beneath

Every so often, I come across a book that doesn’t exactly fit into the typical mold of a genre. The Demons Beneath is one of those books.

Part-demonic possession/horror, part crime-procedural, ALL interesting, this is a tightly written page-turner. From the introduction of the characters that read like a television show to the final twist literally on the last page, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

The author did a fantastic job of creating tension in both plot-lines and keeping the reader guessing. The way the book is written made me feel (at first) as if I was reading two different books, which was unique. When the plot lines seemingly merged (no spoilers) it was natural but done in a way that ratcheted up the tension.

I liked how the main character, DI Daniel Graves, was not entirely put together. He wasn’t the perfect policeman; he had doubts and fears like any typical law-enforcement officer would. I appreciate when an author seems to understand law enforcement and the pressures they face.

I also have to say that the title is brilliant. There is so much in the book that is covered by the title but in different ways. It’s hard to explain without giving away plot points. Some people believe that demons do exist and are the cause of evil, but it also alludes to the personal “demons” that guide peoples’ actions or make them feel inadequate.

It’s challenging to write a review of a book this twisty without giving anything away. But I will say that while the rest of the book was very good, the end had a twist I did not see coming and made me want more of the story right away. Too bad I have to wait until the next installment in the series.

The Demons Beneath is a perfect book for the upcoming fall season, especially close to Halloween. I highly recommend it.

Blog Tour w/Review: Fake Date by Monica Murphy

This is becoming one of my favorite series. I like the setting of Seaside/Monterey. I especially like how the heroines in the series are strong women who support each other. This time, we get Sarah, who works at Bliss, a lingerie store. Her romantic interest–well, the attractive guy, but a jerk–is Jared.

Jared is a fairly typical romantic hero, in that he is gruff on the outside for personal reasons, but the heroine can really get him going. His character had more depth than Sarah. It felt like her backstory was a little less fleshed-out, and I wished that her brother and sister had played a bigger part. As it was, they were mentioned off-handedly as a plot point but didn’t have much else to do.

Of course, you know from the title that there is a “fake date” involved, this time to an engagement party in San Francisco. The couple has to work through some family-related stumbling blocks and, as usual, there are a few misunderstandings. I thought the characters involved with the engagement party were interesting because they were not the stereotypical type one might find. There was no bitchiness (which was refreshing).

But there is a HEA. Overall, it is an enjoyable book with good characters, and I look forward to the next in the series. I was really happy to see that Jared’s sister Candice is getting a story, but there are plenty of gals left to match up!

Book Review: 29 Seconds by T. M. Logan

I loved T.M. Logan’s first book, Lies, and was hoping that he wouldn’t suffer a “Sophomore Slump” in the second book.

Spoiler Alert: He didn’t. This book was even better than the first.

From the teaser prologue, the book jumps back in time a mere two weeks to when the main character’s life takes a turn for the worse. Sarah is in a job that she loves with a boss who could win the title of “Worst Boss Ever.” A chance encounter and a split-second decision ultimately give Sarah the chance to change the trajectory of her life.

Sarah’s character was fascinating. I loved her job, and the academic setting was more interesting than a typical business or corporation. It also made the differentiation between public and private personas more striking.

As always, no spoilers, but in this case, I feel strongly about not saying much more about the plot because readers should be allowed to experience it on their own. As with the author’s first book, the action moves along at a swift pace. I finished this in less than 24 hours, reading deep into the night and getting up early in the morning to finish it (a girl has to sleep sometime; otherwise I would have read straight through the night. It was that good).  

Also, similar to the first book, there are a few twists that keep the reader guessing. At one point I wasn’t sure about anything I had just read because it went in a different direction than I thought it would.

There were only two brief parts that I could have done without, and they involved mention of American politicians. I have commented on this with other books as well. If the book is not politically-oriented, and there is no bearing on the characters, there is no reason to throw it in. It seems gratuitous, and it takes away from the story at hand. I, for one, avoid political thrillers for this reason – I read to escape. And a jarring mention takes me right out of the story.

Those were minor, however. Overall, this is one fantastic book, and I don’t know why you’re still reading this review – go pick it up now!

New Release: Fake Date

Fake Date - RB banner.jpg

“This book was like the best sort of dessert. I. Am. Addicted.” – #1NYT bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken

Fake Date, an all-new standalone contemporary romance by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Monica Murphy is LIVE!

Fake Date AMAZON.jpg

Working at Bliss Lingerie, Sarah Harrison deals with all sorts of—interesting clientele. Yet no one sparks her interest more than Jared Gaines, the ultra-rich, ultra-sexy businessman who frequents her shop, buying delicate little “gifts” for the women in his life.

But one day, Jared sends her a gift from Bliss. Then another—and another. So when Sarah walks into his office demanding to know why he can’t stop sending her gifts, he makes her an offer she somehow can’t refuse: be his fake girlfriend for the weekend while attending his brother’s engagement party.

Next thing Sarah knows, she’s in San Francisco, pretending to be in love with Jared. Not that it’s a hardship. Once you get the man away from the office, he’s much more relaxed. Sweet. Funny. Even…thoughtful? Oh, and sexier than ever, of course.

Their pretend relationship feels very real, very quickly. Soon Sarah’s in over her head. Could what she and Jared share turn into something real? Or is it all actually…fake?

New Release: Virtue & Vice



Virtue & Vice by Phoebe Alexander


Series: Spicetopia; Book 2
Genre: Interracial Erotic BDSM Romance



Who says denying your vices is a virtue?
Screw that person. Literally.

The creators of Spicetopia know adulting is hard. Bills. Mortgages. Parenting. Estate planning. Sometimes you just need to kick back and indulge your inner kid — except now that inner kid has grown-up tastes.

Two couples set out to create a world of adult fun in a slice of paradise called Spicetopia. Cy and Jolie have experience from the kids’ theme park Cy’s family owns. Moon and Katja bring technical and architectural expertise to the table. Can these four work together and build their dream world — while having plenty of adult fun along the way? Or will their dream end up being flushed right down the toilet?

Virtue & Vice is Book 2 in the Spicetopia series. Though these sweet and spicy books can be read in any order, we recommend you read Book 1, Sugar & Spice first. You can find it in the Sweetest Obsessions boxed set or in paperback.
