NOAH and ME - BECKIE STEVENSON

RELEASE DATE:  15^th December 2014

“So you fix broken hearts, do you?” I ask. “Seems a little
ironic.”

Noah Carter is

one of the best cardiothoracic doctors in the country. He’s incredibly

intelligent, funny, kind and he’s a beast in the bedroom. He has scars that

drizzle down his chest and painful memories of an unforgettable night that

plague his every waking hour. 

Seven years

ago, Noah stumbled upon me at the side of a grave and saved me in one of the

most compassionate ways another human being can save another.  I will

always love him for that. Always.

He loved me in

a way that no man has ever loved me since, and I gave him everything. I gave

him it all until my secrets and lies tore us apart, forcing me to shatter his

heart into a thousand little pieces.

Seven years ago

he loved me, but now he hates me. And I hate that he hates me. Leaving Noah is

my biggest regret in life - and I have a lot of things that I regret. A lot.

I’m Ariel

Miller and this is the story of Noah and Me.

I glance around the corner of
the small building and spot a woman who isn’t dressed like a smart teacher.
She’s wearing white stilettoes and a tiny little black dress that just about
covers her backside. Her breasts, which are definitely fake, protrude out from
the scoop neckline of the dress. Her chocolate-coloured hair is poker straight
and falls to her shoulder blades. I hear her giggling. I see her hand shoot out
to touch a glistening, tanned and extremely toned forearm.

“That’s Candy,” whispers Ben.

“What does she do?” I ask. She
arches her back and pushes her breasts out even further than they were before.

“She’s a Lawyer,” he tells me.
“They call her the black widow.”

I glance at Ben and realise he’s
not joking. I look back at Candy and hear her giggle again, watching as she
flicks her hair over her shoulder. “Does she eat men after she’s slept with
them?”

“No,” he says, shaking his head.
“She eats them after she’s done with them in court instead.”

More
like she hypnotises them with her breasts and hair flicking, I think. “I see,” I say.

“Her tongue is evil,” he says
before adding, “and not in a good way.”

I grin at him.

“Anyway,” he says, pulling on my
elbow, “we should go and say hello to the birthday boy.”

I take a step forward and then
the earth stops moving as all of the blood in my body rushes to my ears. I can
hear the beat of my own heart as it bangs against my chest. The birthday boy’s
blue eyes collide with mine and they’re slowly turning to hard stone in front
of me. He steps away from the wall, roughly pushing Candy off him, and marches
towards me.

I can’t take my eyes off him.
How can someone who is beyond beautiful look so ugly at the same time? His
light brown hair is styled perfectly on his head as if he’s just got out of
bed. Or maybe he has, if Candy’s performance was anything to go by. His pale,
crystal-blue eyes display nothing of the thoughts that I have no doubt are
obviously running through his mind. He’s wearing a dark grey shirt and black
trousers. Even with his clothes on, I can tell that there’s a wall of pure
muscle hiding underneath them. I see a faint smattering of chest hair poking
out from the top of his shirt where his top button is undone. His face is
tanned and freshly shaven.

“You!” he says, his deep voice
wrapping around me like a warm blanket. His gaze shifts to my neck like lightning.
His eyes linger for a fraction of a second on my necklace and I see a hint of
astonishment flash across his face. Then it’s gone, replaced by the cold,
screwed-up face that he had before.

I open my mouth but nothing
comes out. Every single hair on my skin stands on end as his angry breath
washes over my face. Air leaves my lungs and doesn’t come back in. How the fuck
is he here? Of all the places in the entire world, how is he here?

I finally realise he’s still
towering over me, looking as if he wants to strangle me. I take a deep breath.
I can’t do this.

“Erm, do you two know each
other?” asks Ben.

Ignoring Ben, I continue to
stare at him. He stares at me. What could we possibly say to each other that
would make any of it okay? I can’t be here. I can’t be near him. I need to
leave.

“No,” he hisses, as his eyes
trail all over me.

Liar.

“I don’t know who this girl is,”
he says.

I know it’s wrong to feel hurt
that he called me a girl, but I do. I don’t want him looking at me like that
either. Not when I feel so shitty about what I’m wearing. I wish I could cover
myself up, but I don’t have enough clothes on to even start.

Ben blinks, looking confused.
“Noah, this is Ariel. Ariel, this is the birthday boy, Noah.”

This isn’t Noah. This is a
stranger that doesn’t know me anymore.

“I’m going,” I announce, tearing
my gaze away from Noah. I look at Ben and feel myself beginning to panic. “Erm,
I have to go.”

“You have to?” Ben questions.

I nod quickly and start to back
away from them. “I have to go. Right now. I have a horrible headache. Here,” I
say, pushing my glass into Ben’s hand, “take this. And I’m sorry.”

“Ariel,” Ben calls as I turn to
leave.

“Let her go,” Noah says. “She
wasn’t invited and she’s not welcome.”

DANTE’S FIRE - CHARACTER BLOG TOUR

“I want you as a man. Your body on top of mine, thrusting deep inside me until I become a part of you. Not as a friend, or a healer, or a damn shrink. Get it?”

Growing up in foster care taught me to be tough, in control, and take care of myself. But that night I was attacked, I became a different person. They say all things happen for a reason, and looking back, I can see this was the way I met Dante. The man who healed me, talked to me in the dark night after night, and made me believe in love.

Of course, I had no idea he was the same man that had become my friend over the past two years. We had a bond that was just as strong, but who knows how long it would’ve taken for us to take a chance on each other. As an up and coming executive going for partner, dating the mailroom guy is extreme.

Yes, even in today’s world society gives us limits. I guess it’s a good thing Dante and I like to break them.

Many readers are wondering how we are doing. They’ve written to see if we’re struggling, if we settled into routine, and how I deal with my lover’s disappearances. We may be eating dinner, sleeping in bed, walking in the park, and whoosh—he’s gone. Like the time traveler guy-who was pretty hot—but nothing compared to Dante. I mean, hello, have you seen him on the cover?

H-O-T.

Sorry, I digress. It’s not easy, but we didn’t expect easy. I think you’ll see more of our struggles in the next book. Am I jealous of all those other nameless, faceless women he heals in the night, like he once did me? No. Because I know he loves me and he needs to heal the others. But it’s hard to share the one you love every moment. I have my good days and bad days. The good always outweigh the bad.

Wait—did you think we rode off  into the sunset and had great sex and the birds flew and the music cued and everything came together?

No. But the sex is true. But when you love someone the way I love Dante, there’s no thought to failure. Whatever will happen, we’ll come out stronger.

I hope you read our love story. It’s not your usual, but we’re not the usual couple.

A sexy second chance romance from NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Jessie Evans

The home run neither of them expected…

Pike Sherman is a legend in Lonesome Point, a hometown boy who made it to the big leagues. Literally. Professional baseball acquired one hell of a pitching arm and its latest celebrity bad boy when the gifted Pike was drafted seven years ago. Pike’s broken heart came along for the ride, too, but he kept that private, and since leaving Lonesome Point has kept his distance from his hometown. But when Pike’s little sister, Mia, begs him to be the Dude of Honor at her wedding, he can’t refuse. He takes advantage of a break in the season and returns home to find himself thrown together with the one woman he never wanted to see again.

Tulsi Hearst is on the verge of losing her Equine Therapy business, and letting down all the kids she’s come to love. After a mix-up with the grant board, she needs to concentrate on finding more funding, not dealing with Pike Sherman, the boy she sacrificed so much for, and the one person she’s ever lied to. And what a lie it is… Pike would hate her if he found out. She knows she should stay far away from the brooding man her summer love has become, but Tulsi can’t resist a slow dance with the only boy who ever made her blood rush.

After just a few days back in Lonesome Point, Pike can’t imagine life without the girl he left behind, but when Tulsi’s secret is revealed, his heart is broken all over again. The only thing worse than losing Tulsi, is losing six years with the daughter he didn’t know he had.

Leggere questo romanzo è stato come vivere dentro al film "Basquiat", oppure in uno di quei documentari biografici su Andy Warhol. La vita di un artista è davvero qualcosa di incomprensibile, forse nemmeno loro si rendono conto di quanto incasinata sia la loro mente. Dopotutto non è quello che si dice generalmente degli artisti? La loro eccentricità, l'egocentrismo, il potere che hanno sulla creatività li rende affascinanti ai nostri occhi. Loro sono in grado di esprimere attraverso l'arte, in questo caso la pittura, la realtà....o per meglio dire, la realtà vista dai loro occhi.

Siamo tutti consapevoli che la vita di un pittore, fin dai tempi antichi, non è mai stato un esempio di sobrietà. Non lo è nemmeno quella di Maxfield Caswell, il protagonista/artista di questa storia. Diventato famoso fin dalle prime opere, il suo aspetto fisico eccezionale, il magnetismo sessuale e un caratteraccio niente male hanno fatto sì che attirasse l'attenzione di ragazze interessate solo dal suo aspetto fisico, collezionisti d'arte senza scrupoli e galleristi smaniosi per le sue opere mettendolo sotto pressione per averne sempre di più. Perde il senso della sua arte, sembra che a nessuno importi di lui come persona se non come artista, la pressione lo porta ad eccedere sempre più, annullando se stesso e dando agli altri quello a cui sono interessati. La sua vita è caratterizzata solo da facili avventure, esposizioni in diverse parti del mondo ed estenuanti interviste, quando incontra Ava. Lei lavora per un gallerista d'arte serio, che in quella specifica circostanza stava organizzando l'esibizione di Max. Oltre che per il fatto che il suo sguardo ha notato la bellezza del fisico di lei, quello che attrae maggiormente Max è la capacità di Ava di comprendere lo spirito di un artista,  le sue esigenze ma anche quando devono essere placati nei loro capricci. Gli tiene testa e Max rimane piacevolmente colpito.

Nonostante i suoi difetti, si rende conto di quanto preziosa e sana sia per lui la vicinanza di Ava. La coinvolge in un progetto che li vedrà trascorrere molto tempo insieme, dove Ava conoscerà le varie ragioni che hanno portato Max a questo tipo di vita dissoluta; viceversa Max rimane abbagliato dalla positività che lei ha portato con se e ne diventa dipendente, non gli basta mai ma allo stesso tempo non sa se è pronto per farla entrare definitivamente nel suo vortice di arte, follia e passione. 

Ava, è molto attratta da Max e comprende fino ad un certo punto la sua volontà di tenerla a distanza, sentimentalmente parlando.

Max vive in un equilibro estremamente precario, ce la farà Ava a non pressarlo troppo per non spaventarlo con il rischio di farlo fuggire da lei per sempre? 

Voglio motivare la via valutazione di tre cosmo....perché sono stufa di serie che mi lasciano con il fiato sospeso con un disgraziato cliffhanger!!! Io che sono lì a mangiarmi le unghie per sapere come accidenti andrà a finire tra i due personaggi, che giocano a flirtare pesantemente per tutta la storia, ammetto perfino di aver letto velocemente certe parti per scoprire cosa succede tra i protagonisti, e poi mi finisce così.....MA BASTA!!!!! A questo punto non lo accetto, adesso voglio solo un libro che abbia un inizio e una fine e non uno sviluppo in tre o più romanzi!!!

Sfogo a parte, non posso dire che non mi sia piaciuto. Il contesto è diverso rispetto a quello che ho letto fino adesso. Lo stile abbastanza scorrevole, i dialoghi sono un pò latitanti e questo fattore non aiuta. In quanto inedito e di conseguenza scritto in inglese, lo consiglio a chi ha una certa dimestichezza con la lingua.

Lei è molto carina, seppure ingenua e indecisa in certi momenti, una ragazza serie e un'instancabile lavoratrice. Lui è il classico bello e dannato ma almeno ha uno scopo nella vita, fare l'artista e non il womanizer che non pensa ad altro a dove trovare la prossima avventura. 

Lui vuole cambiare, quindi una base l'abbiamo, Ava sembra essere la medicina perfetta, e anche con questo siamo a posto.....il carattere ci frega! Non posso dire di più. A voi il giudizio finale.

Mai per amore - Penelope Douglas

Un tempo Jader e Tate erano grandi amici: sono cresciuti insieme, si sono arrampicati insieme sugli alberi, si sono aiutati a vicenda nei momenti difficili. Ora invece Jared è cambiato. Il bambino dolce di una volta si è trasformato in un ragazzo difficile e astioso, sempre pronto a offendere e deridere Tate di fronte a tutta la classe. A scuola le ha reso la vita un inferno, e Tate non sa più come difendersi. A volte invece è incredibilmente dolce con lei, e sembra volerla proteggere... 

Tate vorrebbe odiarlo eppure non ci riesce: sente che il suo vecchio amico è disperato e vorrebbe scoprire il motivo della sua rabbia: raggiungere il suo cuore e carpire il segreto che nasconde in fondo all'anima.
