Release Day : Playing It Cool + Giveaway


Harper Nugent might have a little extra junk in her trunk, but her stepbrother calling her out on it is the last straw… When rugby hottie, Dexter Blake, witnesses the insult, he surprises Harper by asking her out. In front of her dumbass brother. Score! Of course, she knows it’s not for reals, but Dex won’t take no for an answer.
Dexter Blake’s life revolves around rugby with one hard and fast rule: no women. Sure, his left hand is getting a workout, but he's focused on his career for now. Then he overhears an asshat reporter belittle the curvy chick he'd been secretly ogling. What's a guy to do but ask her out? It’s just a little revenge against a poser, and then he'll get his head back in the game.
But the date is better than either expected. So is the next one. And the next. And the heat between them…sizzles their clothes right off.
Suddenly, this fake relationship is feeling all too real…

        Blog Tour : Faking It


        Fake it till you make it.

        That’s Lexi Hall, the wild socialite’s motto for how to live life.

        Single and allergic to commitment, Lexi is having the time of her life.  Or is she? With
        a new promotion at the art gallery, and her colorful lifestyle as bright as ever, she
        swears she has no interest in slowing down. When Lexi receives a phone call that
        can change her career, she pounces on the opportunity. But what this outgoing diva
        doesn’t plan for is her new client, the closed off, secluded artist, Hunter James.

        Fighting to draw the line between work and pleasure, it’s up to Lexi to figure out
        how to balance her fake life for something real.

        Hunter James is an artist without a muse. Lacking the beauty in his life that he
        craves, his art is beginning to suffer.  Unfortunately for the mysterious artist, a past
        mistake also tarnishes his trust in women. Forced to take a meeting with an art
        gallery dealer, he accepts knowing he’ll turn her down. He turns them all down.  But
        what he doesn’t anticipate is for the seductive bombshell to turn his world upside
        down.  As his body and mind come alive, he vows to stop at nothing to have her on
        his canvas and in his bed.

        As Lexi’s life begins to brighten with the promise of something beautiful, can she
        stop faking it and find a reason to make it real? Or will Hunter’s past replace theirlight with darkness?

        EXCERPT & TEASERS


        We haven’t been up in the friendly skies for more than a few minutes before Hunter begins to unclip his seat belt. “I need you to come to the bathroom with me?”

        “Why? They don’t like too many people standing in the aisle, you know.”

        “You won’t be standing in the aisle. Let’s go.” I’m looking at him strangely. Until it sinks in. “Why exactly do you want me to go with you?”

        “Because I can’t stand it any longer,” he whisper-growls. “I need to take you into the bathroom and make them think I am fucking you senseless so these vultures know you’re with me. Get up, let’s go.” He snaps his belt off and attempts to stand.

        I pull his shoulder down so he falls back into his seat. “Hunter, we can’t both go into the bathroom and do any of that. It’s illegal.” And I also refuse to admit why I know that.

        “It’s not. I’m sure people still do it all the time. Up you go.” His pupils are beginning to dilate and I know he is serious.  The poor man has been festering about the non-competition on each side of us since we took off.

        “Hunter.” Turning my body toward him, I take my hands and cup his face. I raise my voice so my words are dramatized and so that the two meat cakes on each side of us can hear. “I know you are aching to do so many dirty things to me, but my sores aren’t gone yet. The doctor said we should wait. We don’t want you to get them again, do we?” I tease. I watch the meat cake next to Hunter, scrunch his face and turn away from us. I turn to the aisle and flag down the flight attendant. “Yes, excuse me, do you think I can get some ice? I have some... ya know, blisters... down below, and the ice helps.” I smile while catching the cringing face of my other ex-fan.

        Mission complete. I offer my attention back to the only person on this plane who I care about. Hunter is stock-still, except for his eyes, which are now as big as saucers. “You realize you just announced to most of the plane that you have genital herpes, right?”

        “Yep. And now no one will give me the time of day. I’m all yours.” I wink. Hunter’s expression has dissolved into one of humor, although he is shaking his head at me.

        “You amaze me more and more every single second, Lex. And I do believe that if you’re not careful, we will end up searching out those chapels.”

        I try to hide the surge of emotions that shoot through my heart.

        I bring his mouth to mine and with my lips and my tongue, I offer him the best French kiss ever, convincing him just how little anyone else on this plane matters. And just how much he does.

        It takes the flight attendant telling us we’re about to land for us to break away. I don’t lose eye contact with Hunter and I can tell he is appreciative of what I did. He feels like the man in charge. Even if his prize was herpes.

        Oops.

        EXCERPT & TEASERS



        The clacking of my stilettos on the shiny marble of his penthouse floor is the only 
        sound that can be heard between us. As I hit the button for the elevator, I feel 
        Hunter behind me. His body heat is setting my back ablaze as he pins me with his 
        dominant frame.  I expect him to say something. Do something. But he doesn’t. His 
        solid chest pressed against my back, his heavy breaths hitting the outside of my 
        earlobe. 

        “Please,” he finally whispers, almost like a plea.  “Please say yes to me, Lexi.” His 
        words sending a spiral of heat down my spine. He’s barely touched me, yet I feel as if 
        I’m going to combust. “Let me paint every contour of your exquisite body. Every 
        curve, every dimple.” His mouth is so close to my skin that I imagine his lips on me. 

        His warm breath caresses the back of my neck, traveling down to my collarbone. 
        “Tell me you don’t feel just a little bit intrigued at how freeing it would be to sit for 
        me. To expose yourself to me while I take in every part of your body and transform 
        it into my own private masterpiece.” 

        I exhale audibly, my shoulders beginning to weaken. His arms lift, enclosing on each 
        side of my now pulsating body. His strong hands press against the wall forming a 
        barricade around me. “Tell me that you don’t agree that your body is a paradise for 
        any man’s eyes. I need that. I need to be able to capture that beauty and paint a 
        vision that leaves me struggling for air every time I look at it.  That is what you will 
        give me if you say yes.”
