Department of Covert Operations Training Officer Kendra Carlsen has been begging her boss to let her go into the field for years. When he finally agrees to send her along on a training exercise in Costa Rica, she’s thrilled.

Bear-shifter Declan MacBride, on the other hand, is anything but pleased. He’s been crushing on Kendra since he started working at the DOC seven years ago. Spending two weeks in the same jungle with her is putting a serious strain on him.

When the team gets ambushed, Kendra and Declan are forced to depend on each other. But the bear-shifter soon discovers that fighting bloodthirsty enemies isn’t nearly as hard as fighting his attraction to the beautiful woman he’ll do anything to protect.

About the Author: Paige Tyler is the USA Today bestselling author of sexy, romantic fiction.

Check Out This Sneak Peek of Her Wild Hero:

Kendra glanced at Declan to see him looking off into the jungle again.

“What aren’t you guys telling me?” she asked. “Declan, where have you been disappearing to all day?”

It was Tate who answered. “Declan thinks someone’s following us and has been since late last night.”

She pinned Declan with a look. “You think? Or you know?”

He met her gaze. “There’s definitely someone out there, but they’re quiet—too quiet. And they’re keeping their distance most of the time. Every once in a while though, I’ll hear them move closer, but they disappear whenever I try to get a look at them.”

Kendra glanced at each of the guys. She knew they trusted Declan’s instincts, so that meant she did, too. “Should we tell the others?”

“Tell them what?” Tate asked. “That we’re suspicious about the coordinates we’ve been following for the last three days? That the bear shifter on our team is certain he’s heard someone following us, but that they’re a couple miles away? Would you believe any of that if you didn’t work for the DCO?”

He had a point. “So, what do we do?”

“We keep our eyes open and be ready if the shit hits the fan,” Declan said.

Teaser Tour: Kilts & Daggers by Victoria Roberts

Posted April 29, 2015 by Rowena in Promotions | 0 Comments

9781402292033KILTS AND DAGGERS by Victoria Roberts TEASER TOUR! – Day 2

Fagan Murray and Grace Walsingham, the hero and heroine in Victoria Roberts’ new Highland romance, KILTS AND DAGGERS, have a very interesting relationship. In their first meeting, the stubborn guard of Laird Ruiari ends up with a black eye from the sharp-tongued and hot-headed sister of Ravenna, a spy for the English crown.

You won’t want to miss the hilarious banter between Fagan and Grace that begins in My Highland Spy (Highland Spies, book 1) and fills the pages of Kilts and Daggers (Highland Spies, book 2).

Will these English-Scottish enemies ever see eye-to-eye?

FAGAN AND GRACE TEASER 2

Excerpt from My Highland Spy by Victoria Roberts

While the uninvited company sat in the great hall, Fagan listened to the woman’s endless prattle. Although she spoke in a low tone, he could still hear every word. Meanwhile, the driver hadn’t uttered a single peep. Who knew? Perhaps he was unable to get in a word or two.

“The castle is beautiful. Don’t you think so, George? I’m not surprised my sister has been away for so long if she’s been living like this. Our small manor house doesn’t even begin to compare. Why do you think the tapestries have nothing but swords, shields, and scenes of war, and what is that imbedded into the mantle over there? It looks like a giant cat sitting upright. I despise cats as much as Ravenna despises dogs.”

When there was a moment of blessed silence, Fagan said a silent prayer that the rant was over. Of course he spoke too soon.

“The Highland men and women certainly dress differently than we do, even when we’re out in the country. Why do you think the Scottish men wear those ridiculous skirts, George?”

Enough was enough. Fagan approached the table and gave her a roguish grin. “’Tisnae a skirt, lass. If I work something under it, then it would be called a skirt.”

Sweet by Tammara Webber’s Teaser

Posted April 21, 2015 by Rowena in News, Promotions | 0 Comments

Holly and I are fans of this series and are looking forward to reading Boyce’s book.

Sweet

He’s the love of her life, but he doesn’t know it.
She’s his one moment of sacrifice in a lifetime of survival.
He was damaged and wild, but resilient.
She’s always been obedient; now she’s restless.

Home for the summer between college and med school, Pearl Torres Frank knows two things: Boyce Wynn is the embodiment of everything she should run from, and everything she wants to run to. Rebellious and loud. Unconcerned with society’s opinion of him. Passionate. Strong. Dangerous.

And one more trait he hides from everyone but her:

Sweet.

(A Contours of the Heart novel – can be read as a stand-alone story)

We’re delighted to share with you lovely readers a teaser from the book before it releases. Check it out:

Book Spotlight (+ Giveaway): Keep Me Safe by Maya Banks

Posted October 7, 2014 by Holly in Giveaways, Promotions | 15 Comments

Publisher: Avon, Harper CollinsGenres: Paranormal Romance, Romantic Suspense

keep me safeToday, Maya Banks has a new release. Keep Me Safe, the first in the Slow Burn series, which follows the exciting and heart-pounding adventures of Ramie St. Claire, a woman with the remarkable talent of locating missing victims by feeling their pain, is available today!

Rising above the talents of a typical psychic, Ramie uses her gift to locate missing victims by connecting with their emotions and feeling their pain. However, every gift comes with a curse. Every time Ramie locates another victim, she loses a piece of herself and experiences the same physical and mental pain the missing victims do. When the younger sister of Caleb Devereaux disappears—rich, handsome, impatient Caleb Devereaux—he immediately seeks out Ramie’s help and talents, igniting chemistry between the two that they never expected.

When tracking down Caleb’s sister leads to Ramie’s suffering and eventual disappearance, Caleb vows to do everything within his power to help her. After Ramie suddenly reappears, deeply in need of Caleb’s aid, Caleb knows he will lay everything on the line, even his heart, to shelter Ramie from harm.

I love books that feature parapsychology. I generally don’t read romantic suspense, but I’m going to make an exception for this book, I think.

The second book in the series, In His Keeping, will be available in January 2015 and the third book in the series, Safe at Last, will be published in March 2015.
