*** Cover Reveal *** Keeping King by Anne Jolin


COVER REVEAL







KEEPING KING
Author: Anne Jolin
Genre: Erotic Romance
Series: Rock Falls #4
Add to Goodreads


~ SYNOPSIS ~



***Can be read as a standalone or as part of the Rock Falls series.***

Peyton Callaghan is a fighter, a survivor, a warrior. When it was kill or be killed, she didn’t hesitate. Now, she’s the only one left standing, haunted by the ghost of a dead man and plagued with the guilt of having taken another person’s life. The upheaval of her life to start over in Rock Falls has been rocky at best, her worst nightmares and wildest desires colliding with each other. Terror tortures her nightly, breeding fear inside her dreams, and in every waking moment, she fights against the lust that threatens to drown her. 

Jayden King harbors secrets beneath his outward playboy demeanor. The women who warm his bed lay claim to nothing—you can’t lay claim to someone who doesn’t have a heart. His wit and charm are exquisite means of deflection and distraction from the turmoil roaring inside him. He’s hidden in plain sight, a mask of humor keeping the sadness at bay. The only real reflections of his soul are in the artwork he creates, pieces of him muraled on the skin of others. If tattoo artists could have a calling card, the etch of pain and suffering in each design would be his. Because when the lights go out and the women he’s satisfied have gone home, he’s alone with every fear he refuses to face.

After suffering from a brutal attack at the hands of her roommate’s stalker, Peyton is forced to live with the object of her affection. Without intention, she breathes love into his starved heart, and although the mere thought of that terrifies him, Jayden would burn the city down to keep her safe, causalities be damned. 

Some people you have. Some people you hold. 

She can have him. She can hold him. But can she keep King? Or is it impossible for Callaghan to keep something that was never really hers to begin with?

Beth Rhodes has always had a game plan. Go to college. Get the perfect job. Get the perfect guy. Get the happily ever after she's always wanted. It is just her luck that everything falls into its precise place in her life. At least it seems that way until her blueprints go up in smoke. She loses the job she loves and her price charming is turning out to be the villain of her fairytale instead. With failures and mistakes piling up on her doorstep, she knows something has to give—or she could very well end up paying for those mistakes with her life.

Braxton Bennett is lethal, both in the courtroom and in the ring. Two sides of him constantly wage war against one another, and to keep the internal bloodshed at bay, he allows himself to indulge in his violent vice. Suit by day and brawler by night aren’t easy dual lives to manage for a man of his status. The only way to do so is by following a strict set of rules—rules he won’t break for anyone. But what if he already has?

On a summer night in the depths of the city, a chance encounter will turn both of their perfectly constructed worlds upside down.

Will they battle together against all odds to break Bennett’s rules? Or will Rhodes tap out to save herself before the fight is over?

~ ABOUT THE AUTHOR ~

Anne Jolin
I’m twenty four years old. I was born and raised in Ladner, a small farm town just outside of Vancouver, Canada. I grew up riding horses, shooting guns and riding in trucks. I’ve been married to my handsome redneck husband for a year and we are parents to our chocolate fur baby, Bear. No kiddo’s yet! I am completely and utterly obsessed with country music, you will constantly find me stalking iTunes. If you don’t find me on iTunes, you’ll find me on Netflix because I am a self proclaimed movie junkie. Yes, that means that I quote them constantly in daily conversation and my characters do too! You couldn’t keep me away from a good action movie if you tried. I’m also a planning nut. I love to plan parties, events, trips – you name it! I don’t know if that’s considered a real hobby, but it is for me. 

We were fortunate enough to travel a lot as a family growing up, and I think that helped spark my love of reading. I’m half Viking, my mom is Danish, and her entire side of the family still lives in Denmark. We’d visit them almost once a year, every year and it’s a nine hour flight. That’s a lot of uninterrupted time to read (or in my parent’s case, entertain four children – Yikes!). Somewhere along the way my love of reading, became a love of writing. I wrote short stories when I was younger, and although I majored in Business Management at college, I took as many English electives I could get my hands on. 

During the day I work at my family construction company wearing a variety of different hats and at night, I write! I had never thought about writing books before, but after a few suggestions that I should try, I decided to give it a go. I loved it instantly! Having always been a creative person, it felt amazing to harness all that energy and use it to tell a story. Now, quite frankly it’s all I can think about, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m grateful to have developed my love of reading into a passion for writing. You’ll be seeing many more books from me in the future!

Synopsis

Raine Kendall has been in love with her boss, Macen Hammerman, for years. Determined to make the man notice that she’s a grown woman with desires and needs, she pours out her heart and offers her body to him—only to be crushingly rejected. But when his friend, very single, very sexy Liam O’Neill watches the other Dom refuse to act on his obvious feelings for Raine, he resolves to step in and do whatever it takes to help Hammer find happiness again, even rousing his friend’s possessive instincts by making the girl a proposition too tempting to refuse. But he never imagines that he’ll end up falling for her himself.
Hammer has buried his lust for Raine for years. After rescuing the budding runaway from an alley behind his exclusive BDSM Dungeon, he has come to covet the pretty submissive. But tragedy has taught him that he can never be what she needs. So he watches over her while struggling to keep his distance. Liam’s crafty plan blindsides Hammer, especially when he sees how determined his friend is to possess Raine for his own. Hammer isn’t ready to give the lovely submissive over to any other Dom, but can he heal from his past and fight for her? Or will he lose Raine if she truly gives herself—heart, body, and soul—to Liam?





My Review


If you are a lover of sexy men, hot sex, love triangles, and BDSM then this book NEEDS to be read.

I swear this book reads like one big crazy sexed up soap opera.

Six years ago runaway Raine Kendall, was rescued behind club Shadow; a BDSM Dungeon, by not only one of the club Dom’s, but the Master himself Macen “Hammer” Hammerman.

For six longs years Raine has been so completely in love with Macen; her boss and savior that she is living within the establisment in a constant state of hurt, jealousy and confusion. Hurt over the idea that Macen sees her as merely a little sister/girl, not the beautiful women she’s blossomed into. 
Jealousy of the other subs that Macen is willing to “scene” with and allow to be his sexual slaves, women who she feels cannot give Macen what he needs or deserves. And then there’s the confusion, confusion as to why, if uninterested in her, has he not allowed any other Dom to touch or claim her? He he knows that she is longing for proper gaining and the chance to serve. Especailly to him.

Raine has been biding her time playing the perfect worker; tending to Macen, doting on his every need, always watching and longing for him from a far.

That is until one night when she decided to take a chance…a chance that results in helping to propel a crazy chain reaction. Resulting in the creation of one CRAZY hot triangle of friend vs. friend, vying for complete submission of Raine Kendall, the girl who thought she was overlooked, never realizing that Macen was actually in love with her, he who simply didn’t allow himself the pleasure of her complete submission.

Macen has a secret past filled with sorrow, and regret. Two feelings that he can’t seem to move past in order to admit and commit his true feelings towards Raine. He's so caught up in his fear of hurting her in the end he is the one who suffers.

Regrets were like assholes; everyone had one.

And oh boy would Macen come to regret is lack of willingness to give into his feelings for Raine as well as allowing her the chance she longed for to be his ultimate Sub.


Liam is another Dom, as well as Macen’s best friend. Having been privy to Macen’s past, knowing his demos he decides to intervene in order to help push his long time friend into, he hopes the arms of Raine, the woman he knows his buddy loves.

But of course the best-laid plans always seem to have a kink, and what follows is a ton of angst-ridden moments that honestly left me confused as to whom I wanted Raine to end up with. Both Doms are crazy sexy in the "I'm going to paddle your ass" kinda way, that was enough to keep me drooling as I read. I couldn’t get enough of the budding Dom/Sub relationship between Raine and the sweet man that is Liam. But holy toledo the hottness radiating from Macen had me on fire!!! I wanted the sex scenes and arguments between Raine and Macen to go on and on! 
Holy shit their chemistry was palpable!

That being said, I have to admit that there where a few spots that I ended skimming over, as I wanted to fast forward ahead to the "good stuff". There were also times when I found Raine annoying and wanted her to make a fucking decision already, as I had trouble with her having back to back sex with both men. I also felt that the story line had a few lulls here and there, resulting in my loosing interest for a bit. But my biggest irk was the ending... I hadn't realized this wasn't the only book, that it is indeed a series when I stated reading, so needless to say, I will need to read book 2 asap, as I need to know what the hell is going to happen after that ending.

One to Leave
By Tia Louise

Mariska If you asked where this sudden surge of bravery came from, I’d have to be honest. I had no fucking idea. Stuart rode into the barn looking like sex on two legs… very tired sex on two legs, but sex on two legs all the same, and I made up my mind. After the way he kissed me yesterday, I didn’t care what type of bullshit line he tried to spin, Stuart Knight was in the same space as me. He was fighting hard, but he wanted this. Now I was in his bedroom ordering him around, and he was actually allowing it. Humoring me, more like it. Not for one minute was I suffering from the delusion that this man took orders from anyone. Still, for whatever reason, exhaustion or simple curiosity, he let me take the lead. Once his shirt was off, I couldn’t hide the hitch in my breath at the site of his lined torso. Ridges crossed his abdomen, lines stretched across his broad shoulders and down his arms. He lay on his stomach across the mattress, and it was all I could do not to run my tongue over every inch of his beautiful body. Instead, I quickly took off my boots, and for increased mobility (yes, that was my excuse), I removed my denim shorts. Lightly I smoothed my palm across his lower back, trying to remember the touches I’d learned in the few massage therapy classes I’d taken. Why hadn’t I taken more? Kneading a little harder, I knew I had to get lower, down into the pelvic area to give him relief. “Do you mind if I remove your boxers?” My voice was breathless and trembling. Those snug, dark briefs didn’t hide much, but I knew once I saw that ass, I’d be a goner. “No.” One word. He’d sounded almost as cautious as me when he said it. Closing my eyes, I shook myself. Now was the time. This was my man. If I was going to make it happen, if I was going to make any of this make sense, from the day I left Bayville to this moment, I had to go for it. Fate had dropped this opportunity straight in my lap. Inhaling a quiet breath, I gently pulled the waistband out and lowered it down his legs. I knew what was on the other side, pressed between his pelvis and the mattress, and I didn’t want to hurt him. Miraculously, I got his underwear off, and Oh. My. God. Square and tight, with palm-sized indentations on each side… For a moment, I could only stare at his backside. Perfect and golden as the rest of him. Climbing back onto my knees, I took the quietest deep breath in the history of recorded time. It trembled going in, and my hand trembled reaching out. I touched him. He seemed to breathe at that exact moment as well—almost as if he’d been holding his breath, too.

Genre: Romance
Publication Date: December 21, 204
Add to: Goodreads
Purchase Links:  Amazon US  /  Amazon UK  

          









Synopsis 



Annaliese Harper knows that one tiny mistake can jeopardize a career before it’s even begun. Letting your boss find the extensive collection of porn on your personal laptop is one way. Sleeping with him is another. Liese manages to do both.


As the new librarian at a prestigious small-town private high school, Liese is drawn to her sexy, charismatic principal, Ryder Whitehall—an attraction she refuses to acknowledge given their relationship and her recent liberation from a delusional ex-boyfriend. 



Liese is certain Ryder’s flirtation is the product of her sex-deprived imagination—until he discovers her digital porn stash during working hours and demands a private meeting. Behind closed doors, their attraction explodes into a dangerous, passionate affair that not only threatens their jobs and reputations, but most of all, their hearts. 






My Review

OMG!! *Bows to the woman who is Helena Hunting!!!

Helena Hunting ‘s story telling talents are AMAZBALLS!!! From the moment I read the first few lines I was a complete goner for this book, completely sucked into Helena’s literary world of forbidden love, staying enthralled the whole time. I was soooooooo wrapped up in the smooth writing and vivid details while reading The Librarian Principle, I didn’t want it to end! Hunting’s writing style is one to be rivaled; her ability to paint a vivid picture without overdoing the details is insane, allowing me to see the world she’s created easily, but through the lens of my own imagination.

I am such a fan of forbidden love, so this plot was so right up my alley.  Nothing beats a good forbidden love story!! Especially one involving a sweet Librarian and the hottie of a principal.

Having begun a new job as the Librarian at FAHL we meet Liese Harper. Who I loved loved loved! Liese is sexy and oh so sassy! I liked her character immediately and never faltered in my opinion. I enjoyed how witty and independently strong she was, never coming across and whiney or needy, even met with some issues from her past.

Aside from a sassy female lead, we are given the ooooooh so hot and sexy principal himself Ryder Whitehall.  Ryder is all kinds of yummy goodness with the perfect hint of possessive bad boy underneath his principal persona. And oh boy, I would love me some Ryder for my own!

Ryder is immediately smitten with the sexy new Librarian, quickly agreeing to be her advisor despite knowing better, especially with his growing attraction and the rarity of principals’ taking on advisor roles. This of course leads to a few lusty looks, brief touches, and a case of crazy building anticipation was I waited with bated breath for these two to give into temptation and get it on already! When they finally do its explosive and so friggin hot!!! Hunting has given us a ton of hot scenes that will leave you panting for more.



But of course not everything can be rainbows and bufferfly’s, so we do witness Ryder and Liese face a few bumps along the way, but nothing strong enough to keep them form being together!


Honestly, I really loved this story and I’m such a huge fan of Ms. Hunting that I highly recommend this read, and I cannot what to see what she gives us next!
