Eroe 
( St. Andrews: A Sabato Origin Story)
Ties of Steel Book 3

Sabato Efisto was born from an unholy union, the bastard son of a martyred saint and the Devil. At least, that's what he's believed, for most of his life. 

His father is an Italian crime lord, a man so dangerous that Sabato's mother died trying to get away from him. For that tragedy, which happened on his seventh birthday, Sabato blames himself. Every year, he practices the ritual of self-punishment, flirting with death the way most boys his age flirt with girls. 

Until ten years later, when he meets a sweet girl named Luciana, at St. Andrews of the Holy Cross. For the first time in his life, Sabato doesn't want to end it. The darkness in his soul is replaced by hope. But, as the priests will tell you, the sins of the father are not easily escaped. 
And those who are born into darkness, must carry that cross forever....

******************

Sabato loved his mother so much it was heart breaking. Her death causes him to be a reckless young man. When he meets Luciana he is very abrasive with her but she breaks down his walls until he only see's her. They want to spend the rest of their lives together but they both come from very different backgrounds and it's going to be messy, very messy. Their story ends but I have a feeling it's not over.

The sex scenes were hot & steamy just like all MJ's books are!

We also got the first chapter of "Sabato's" story!

Always

I never understood the phrase there’s a thin line between love and hate, until Dallas Wesson and I, became us.

The beautiful green-eyed biker with the broken soul tantalizes me with glimpses of the man behind the vest. He‘s gravity. I have no choice but to return to him, regardless of what it costs me. Our story is messy, unconventional, uninhibited, and insane. Still, it’s real, and until now it’s always been more than enough. I’m broken, bleeding out, and completely wrecked. I walk away. Yet, he refuses to let me go. Because no matter how much I resist him we both know what lies between us is for always.

**************

"Leaving Amarillo" Blog Tour Stop & Giveaway!

Nashville meets New Adult in Neon Dreams, a dramatic, sexy series from bestselling author Caisey Quinn, about a country band’s rocky road to fame—and the ambition, dreams, and love of the people who make the music.

Dixie Lark hasn’t had it easy. She lost her parents in an accident when she was young and grew up in a ramshackle house on a dirt road in Amarillo with her ailing grandparents and overprotective older brother. Thanks to her grandfather, Dixie learned to play a mean fiddle, inspired by the sounds of the greats—Johnny and June, Waylon, and Hank. Her grandfather’s fiddle changed Dixie’s life forever, giving her an outlet for the turmoil of her broken heart and inspiring a daring dream.

Ten years later, Dixie and her brother, Dallas, are creating the music they love and chasing fame with their hot band, Leaving Amarillo. But Dixie isn’t enjoying the ride. All she can think about is Gavin, the band’s tattooed, tortured drummer who she’s loved since they were kids. She knows he feels the connection between them, but he refuses see her as more than his best friend’s little sister.

Convinced that one night with Gavin will get him out of her system, Dixie devises a plan. She doesn’t know that her brother has forbidden Gavin from making a move on her-a promise he swore he’d always keep . . . a promise that once broken will unexpectedly change the future for Dixie, Gavin and the band. 

**************

This is Dixie's journey in getting what she wants, Gavin. There ends up being so many more lessons that she learns along the way than getting what you want. Gavin is haunted by his past and is chained to a mother who he should be running far away from. When Dixie starts making her moves on him he can't fight his attraction to her any longer and soon realizes it's more than just a physical connection they have. He needs to do what's right for him for once and go after what he really wants. As their band starts to get noticed it doesn't  go as they all had planned and things are about to change in a big way. Some sex scenes - they were hot & steamy. The ending now that was odd because finally Gavin is on the right track to Dixie but Dixie is on her own adventure so we are left not knowing how things end for these two. The next book is Dallas' book and I can only assume things will be set straight as far as Gavin & Dixie are concerned in that book. 

Quotes:

 But here, where I am right now, Gavin Garrison is making love to me with his eyes. And I don’t want him to stop. Ever.

 He’s not watching you like he’s worried you’ll screw up. He’s watching you like he’s worried you’ll disappear and take his heart with you.

 I don’t know when I became this pathetic mess so completely codependent on the happiness of someone who has told me in no uncertain terms that he will never cross the friendship line with me, but here I am.

  

 I will make it impossible for him to say no, somehow. I have five floors on the elevator to figure it out. My heart rises into my throat as we make our way upward.

 “All I can think about is how good this ice cream would taste if I was licking it off your body instead of this plastic spoon.”

Hard and Fast

Rose Weatherston was top of her acting class in small-town Illinois, but in Hollywood, the only roles she’s being offered are spots on the casting couch.

Faced with the possibility of having to go back home with her tail between her legs, Rose takes a job as a personal assistant to bridge the gap until she can finally land a legitimate acting role.

The advertisement calls for someone discreet, available 24/7, and willing to live-in.

It sounds terrible, and more than a little ominous, but as Rose’s best friend points out, beggars can’t be choosers.

Turns out that she’ll be working for Cole Dean, the international movie star whose face is on the cover of every tabloid. Cole Dean, the lady killer with the mysterious past, electric green eyes and devil’s smile. Cole Dean, who turns out to be wickedly charming and sexy as hell.

Rose tries to deny the instant, intense, and very unwanted attraction. After all, she didn’t say no to the casting couch this many times just to end up sleeping with her boss. But when their mutual desire becomes too much to bear, Rose sets up some ground rules between them.

She never wants to see Cole naked. Ever again. So he can stop working out shirtless and stripping when he knows she’s watching.

She won’t be a personal lackey in his depraved sex life. Thank you very much.

And absolutely, under no circumstances, will they have sex.

But Cole Dean’s charm proves difficult to resist, and before long, Rose finds herself wanting to break every single one of her own rules. 

********************

When Rose first meets Cole Dean it's quite and interesting affair. Now that she has seen him in all his glory she can't stop thinking about him. Things between them turn into more quickly but besides it being hot, steamy, juicy sex Rose isn't sure what else it is. She is constantly seconding guessing everything going on between them. When things get a bit out of control Rose get a phone call that sends her home. Now home with a broken heart she has to do what her family needs her to do. When Cole shows up laying his heart of the line will Rose be able to do what she wants or be obligated to her family? The ending was good- nothing spatular.

EXCERPT:

“So, it’s true then?”

My breathing stopped. “What’s true?” I asked cautiously.

“That you don’t have sex before a big fight.” Her look was so innocent and hopeful, yet it still took me a second to figure out why she was asking this.

“Yes,” I finally answered. Her cute little frame seemed to relax a little, making me feel—once again—like a total dick. She didn’t know I paid Sara; she was talking about something completely different, about the night we almost hooked up. The night I told her I couldn’t because I had a fight the next day.

She chewed at the inside of her cheek a moment, maybe considering what I’d just said. Shit, that meant she thought I’d just made that up to get rid of her. Not fucking likely. Putting the brakes on that night had been the hardest thing I’d ever done.

“So,” she said as she looked up at me innocently through her eyelashes. “What does that do? For a fighter, I mean.”

I chuckled. “You mean besides frustrate the hell out of us?”

She smiled—thank fucking goodness—then nodded for me to continue.

“You know that stereotype that most guys are boneheaded cave dwellers driven by instinct?”

“Is it considered a stereotype if it’s true?” she said, then giggled.

God, she had a great laugh.

I nodded. “That’s what I was getting at. On some very basic level, we fight in order to survive and procreate.”

She scrunched up her nose, making her look super cute. “But wouldn’t you fight better then? If you have sex, then you have someone to fight for, right?”

Her hand went up to mine, which was still resting on her shoulder. She absentmindedly played with my fingers until she noticed I was watching her, and realized what she’d been doing. She let her hand drop.

I shook my head. “We fight to procreate. Once we’ve had sex, we’ve done the job and have no reason to fight.”

“Hmm.” She nodded. “So I guess now that you aren’t fighting for a while, you’re free to take care of business.” Her gaze drifted down my body.
