Virtually Impossible (Once and Forever #2) by Lauren Stewart

Title: Virtually Impossible
Series: Once and Forever #2
Author: Lauren Stewart
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 5, 2016
Fairytales aren’t real…but love is.

Sara has a kick-ass life—loyal friends, a house in San Francisco, and an amazing job as a virtual assistant. It's perfect…except that Sara doesn’t actually exist. She’s just a borrowed name that Andi Clark hides behind. Using a fake identity lets Andi stay safely shielded behind the screen of her computer and concealed from the real world. With her history, pretending to be someone she’s not is the only way Andi can make up for the mistakes of her past. Not exactly ideal, but hey, no one’s life is perfect.

Actually...

Hayden Bennett’s life is pretty damn perfect. He’s married to a beautiful woman, lives in a luxury apartment, and is prepped to take over the multi-million dollar company his father built. Perfect...except that his wife is madly in love with someone else, his career is meaningless, and he’s forgotten how to live, let alone be happy. But when Hayden hires a new virtual assistant named Sara, her sharp wit and intelligence leaves him wanting something more. Something real. Something incredible.

Two people need to wake up to understand how perfect they are...for each other. If they can't, any chance either of them have of finding a happily ever after will be virtually impossible.

~~~~~ 

This highly-anticipated sequel to DARKER WATER is a standalone contemporary romance inspired by Sleeping Beauty. VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE is Hayden and Andi's story, and this is how their fairytale begins: 

Once upon a time there was a woman who made the mistake of trusting the wrong man. And that mistake led to another. And another and another, each more damaging than the last. But the woman was as ignorant of her mistakes as she was of the damage they caused. Until she was punished for them. 

Around the same time, but in a totally separate part of the city, lived a noble man and his beautiful wife. Though their castle was the envy of all, its empty halls echoed of loneliness and regret. For the man had lived his entire life asleep, and both of them remained silent of who they truly were and what they truly wanted. And then one day, the woman entered the man's life and forced him to awaken...

The Law of Moses di Amy Harmon


If I tell you right up front, right in the beginning that I lost him, it will be easier for you to bear. You will know it’s coming, and it will hurt. But you’ll be able to prepare.

Someone found him in a laundry basket at the Quick Wash, wrapped in a towel, a few hours old and close to death. They called him Baby Moses when they shared his story on the ten o’clock news – the little baby left in a basket at a dingy Laundromat, born to a crack addict and expected to have all sorts of problems. I imagined the crack baby, Moses, having a giant crack that ran down his body, like he’d been broken at birth. I knew that wasn’t what the term meant, but the image stuck in my mind. Maybe the fact that he was broken drew me to him from the start.

It all happened before I was born, and by the time I met Moses and my mom told me all about him, the story was old news and nobody wanted anything to do with him. People love babies, even sick babies. Even crack babies. But babies grow up to be kids, and kids grow up to be teenagers. Nobody wants a messed up teenager.

And Moses was messed up. Moses was a law unto himself. But he was also strange and exotic and beautiful. To be with him would change my life in ways I could never have imagined. Maybe I should have stayed away. Maybe I should have listened. My mother warned me. Even Moses warned me. But I didn’t stay away.

And so begins a story of pain and promise, of heartache and healing, of life and death. A story of before and after, of new beginnings and never-endings. But most of all...a love story.

Sweet Hope (Sweet Home #3) di Tillie Cole



My name is Ally Prince and I've always been unlucky in love. I don’t know why, I just always… have.


When all of my best friends were falling for their soul mates in College, I was left behind. I was Ally, the pretty cousin of superstar quarterback, Romeo Prince. I was Ally, the best friend to the most amazing group of girls I've ever known—a title I loved, but one I became tired of 'just' being. And I was Ally, the one on which they could all rely.



But to me, I was Ally, the girl with the heart no one had claimed... And I was, Ally, the girl, who underneath it all, was heart-breakingly lonely.



I LOVE love; the thought of it, the nervous excitement of falling for Mr. Right, the desire of someone becoming my entire world... of me becoming theirs. I’ve always wanted passion, heart-stopping, epic, life-changing romance... I’ve always wanted the fairytale… I’ve always wanted it all.



It just never seemed like I would get it.



For the past few years I've thrown myself into my career as a museum curator. I’m the best of the best, the person every museum wants to hire, so when an opportunity came up to move to Seattle, I jumped at the chance. My cousin and my best friend lived in Seattle and I needed a change. 



I needed a new beginning.



I wasn't expecting to meet anyone in the Emerald City. I wasn't expecting to work closely with the reclusive new sculptor my all-important gallery design was centered around. And I certainly wasn't expecting to fall for him... heart-stopping, epic, life-changing love...

My real life fairytale come true.



But, like in every fairytale, there’s a villain, a dark and tortured soul... I just didn't know that the villain and the hero in my story would end up being one and the same.



New Adult Romance Novel—contains adult content, sexual situations and mature topics. Suited for ages 18 and up

Dirty di Kylie Scott


L’ultima cosa che Vaughan Hewson si aspetta di vedere, quando fa ritorno nella casa in cui è cresciuto, è una sposa nella sua vasca da bagno. Tanto meno tutti i drammi che arrivano con lei. Lydia Green non sa se dare fuoco alla chiesa in cui avrebbe dovuto sposarsi, o se sedersi in un angolo da sola a piangere.

Per un soffio riesce a scappare prima del fatidico sì, e conosce Vaughan solo poche ore più tardi. Vaughan è l’esatto opposto del perfetto e rispettato uomo d’affari che avrebbe dovuto sposare. Ex-musicista, diventato barista, Vaughan ha un carattere un po’ scontroso e si porta dietro la sua parte di drammi.
Ma se il Signor Giusto, si è scoperto essere del tutto sbagliato, forse è tempo di dare una chance al Signor Giusto per adesso. Dopotutto, cosa c’è di sbagliato nello sporcarsi un po’?

Desperately Seeking Epic di B.N. Toler





Paul James amava Clara Bateman. Odiarla sarebbe stato più facile. Era una cosa del passato, e James era davvero intenzionato a non rivederla mai più. O almeno così pensava…
Craiglist Ad: Cerco disperatamente Epic.
Tu sei mio padre.
Non so molto di te. So che il tuo nome è Paul James, che sei un amante del brivido, e una volta eri uno stuntman e la gente ti chiamava Epic.
Mi hanno detto che tu non sai niente di me. Che è complicato.
Ma per me, è molto semplice, invece.
Ecco… Io ho dodici anni… e sto morendo.
E per quanto questo annuncio possa ferire mia madre, devo conoscerti prima di morire.
Sono sicura che col tempo, capirà. Lei ti ama ancora.
Per cui, Epic, se stai leggendo, ti prego torna a casa. Non devi farmi da papà, se non vuoi. Non devi dirmi che mi vuoi bene o che ti dispiace. Solo… vieni a trovarmi.
In paziente attesa, ma a corto di tempo,
Neena.

But as the Brotherhood readies for an all-out attack on them, one of their own fights a battle within himself…

Mary, his beloved shellan, is by his side and his King and his brothers are thriving. But Rhage can’t understand—or control—the panic and insecurity hat plague him…

And that terrifies him—as well as distances him from his mate. After suffering mortal injury in battle, Rhage must reassess his priorities—and the answer, when it comes to him, rocks his world...and Mary’s. But Mary is on a journey of her own, one that will either bring them closer together or cause a split that neither will recover from...

Bounty (Colorado Mountain #7) by Kristen Ashley




Justice Lonesome has enjoyed a life of bounty. 

Even so, she’s inherited the curse of the Lonesome. A poet’s soul. Which means she’s still searching for something. Searching for peace. Searching for the less…that’s more. 

And when the foundation of her life is pulled out from under her, grieving, she goes to the mountains to find her oasis. She hits Carnal, Colorado and decides to stay. 

Deke Hightower lost everything at the age of two. He lost it again at fifteen. His life has not been about bounty. It’s been about learning to live with less, because there’s no way to get more. 

Deke’s also watched all his friends go down to the women who gave them what they needed. He wants that for himself. But he knows that search isn’t going to be easy because he’s a rider. His home is the road. That’s the only place he can breathe. And the woman who takes her place at his side has to do it sitting on the back of his bike. 

When Deke meets Justice, he knows she’s not that woman. She’s cute. She’s sweet. And she’s into him, but she’s got it all and Deke knows he won’t fit into that. So he holds her at arm’s length. Establishes boundaries. And Justice will take it because she wants Deke any way he’ll let her have him.

But when Justice finds herself a pawn in a dangerous game, Deke makes a decision. 

When he does, he has no idea he’s just opened himself up to bounty.

RELEASE BLITZ
Title: The Fire Between High and Lo
Series: Romance Elements #2
Author: Brittainy C. Cherry
Genre: Romance
Release Date: March 25, 2016


There once was a boy, and I loved him. 

Logan Francis Silverstone and I were complete opposites. I danced, and he stood still. He was quiet, while I ran my mouth. He struggled to find a smile, and I refused to frown. 

The night I saw the darkness that truly lived inside of him, I couldn't look away. 

We were broken together, yet somehow whole. We were wrong together, but always right. We were the stars that burned across the night sky, searching for a wish, praying for better tomorrows. 

Until the day I lost him. He threw us away with one hasty decision--a decision that changed us forever. 

There once was a boy, and I loved him. 

And for a few breaths, a few whispers, a few moments, I think he loved me, too.

COCKY BASTARD di Penelope Ward e Vi Keeland



Un tipo del genere apparteneva alle mie più selvagge fantasie erotiche, non a un’area di servizio nel bel mezzo del Nebraska. Chance era l’ultima persona che mi aspettavo di incontrare nel mio viaggio attraverso il paese. Arrogante, bellissimo, australiano. Ma quando rimasi a piedi con la macchina, stringemmo un accordo, e iniziammo a viaggiare insieme, dormendo notti bollenti e facendo deviazione impreviste. Il mio noiosissimo viaggio si trasformò presto nell'avventura di una vita. Fu tutto divertimento e giochi, finché le cose iniziarono a farsi intense. Volevo Chance, e credevo che anche lui mi volesse, ma qualcosa lo tratteneva dal fare la prima mossa.
Non avrei dovuto innamorarmi di quel bastardo arrogante, soprattutto perché sapevo che le nostre strade, alla fine, si sarebbero divise.
Tutte le cose belle, devono finire, ad un certo punto, no?
Soltanto che, la nostra fine, non è stata come me l’aspettavo.
