#ReleaseBlitz #Reviews PITCH DARK by A.M. Wilson & Alex Grayson @EJBookPromos @AMWilsonAuthor @AlexGrayson10


Title: Pitch Dark
Author: A.M. Wilson and Alex Grayson

Genre: Dark Romance
Cover Designer: Covers by Combs
Release Date: September 15, 2017

Available on Kindle Unlimited


One girl disappeared. After fifteen years, her cold lifeless body was found on the damp forest floor. Not an inch of her was unmarked by the horrors she endured. Alone, malnourished, abused in horrific ways; this was how she died.
One girl was found walking the streets, covered in dirt and scars. She had no memory of who she was, where she came from, or what happened to her. Even though the marks on her body attested to years of heinous abuse, her strength shone through at every turn.
Revenge and justice were sworn.
Years of searching brought up nothing but dead ends. Detective Niko James was too late to save his childhood friend, but he vows not to let down another. 
The clock is ticking and the trail is pitch dark.



Wow wow wow !!! 
I wish I could give more than 5 stars to this book because it really does deserve it. 
The story starts with Detective Niko James getting a call he's been dreading. He's been searching for his childhood friend who mysteriously disappeared years ago it's the reason he became a police officer in the first place. As the blurb says 1 girl is found dead and another girl is found wandering the streets. 
Doe is a fascinating young woman she has no memory of who she is, where she's been and how she got her injuries. 
Reading the book was like watching a really good thriller it grabbed me and didn't let go. I became obsessed with every word every action every clue. The authors have created a story that at times made my skin crawl because 'he' is seriously creepy like off the charts creepy. So many twists and unexpected revelations that I never saw coming. 
I'm always amazed that I can never see the 'join' in co-author books, the two authors have excelled with this dark and gritty read. 
 * * *


My absolute favorite thing is walking into a story blind. It truly makes the whole experience better for me. I definitely suggest you do that with this story. I went in completely blind and loved it. I love dark reads and this story has those qualities but also those of a psychological thriller. It was a great blend of both that it had me all over the place emotionally. I won't give anything away but I will say this story sticks with you and you honesty think about it and read every chance you get. This story seemed like it went fast but in reality it's actually a long story which gives you all the greatness this story deserves. Loved this story and how seamlessly the authors wrote together.

This chilling story sent shivers down my spine. I could not stop reading. Powerful characters that will stay with me for a long time. A must read! ~Alta Hensley, USA Today Bestselling Author
My heart was ripped out while reading Pitch Dark. I couldn't believe the immediate darkness and extreme grit that came with the very beginning of this novel. I'm talking some Stephen King type shit! ~ Alecia, The Staircase Reader
A riveting story and I think this in reality could be one hell of a twisted movie. ~ Melissa, Book Addicts Reviews
I was blown away by the characters and how well written this is. This is much more than I originally thought it was going to be. This is now currently my top favorite book of all time not just for 2017. ~ Amanda, Goodreads Reviewer
This book brings to life a monster that just very well could be lurking in your neighborhood and that is down right terrifying to think about. ~ Misty, Goodreads Reviewer

[Release Boost * Reviews] FORGET ME NOT by Willow Winters @willowwintersbb @GiveMeBooksBlog #Giveaway


Forget Me Not
Willow Winters

Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: September 12, 2017

Blurb
I fell in love with a boy a long time ago.
I was only a small girl.  Scared and frightened, I was taken from my home and held against my will.  His father hurt me, but he protected me and kept me safe as best he could. 
Until I left him.
I ran the first chance I got and even though I knew he wasn’t behind me, I didn’t stop. The branches lashed out at me, punishing me for leaving him in the hands of a monster.
I’ve never felt such guilt in my life. 
Although I survived, the boy was never found.  I prayed for him to be safe.  I dreamed he’d be alright and come back to me.  Even as a young girl I knew I loved him, but I betrayed him.
Twenty years later, all my wishes came true.
But the boy came back a man.  With a grip strong enough to keep me close and a look in his eyes that warned me to never dare leave him again.   I was his to keep after all.
Twenty years after leaving one hell, I entered another.  Our tale was only just getting started.
It’s dark and twisted. 
But that doesn’t make it any less of what it is.
A love story. Our love story.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
Everyone has a past. It can shape you into who you become or define the way you live. But everyone has a past...
Some are sweet. Some bring smiles and wistful glances. Others are the stuff nightmares are made of. And still others lurk just past nightmares into a horror we can only pretend to understand. 
Forget Me Not was a beautifully dark tale of those hidden horrors no longer lurking in the corner. No, these ones came leaping out and refuse to go back. I am fighting happy/sad/fufilled tears as I type this. 
I was joking with a friend that I must be deranged for gobbling up the dark romances but I think it's a reminder for us broken ones that there's hope. Look at me waxing poetic...Just remember I like the bad boys, so Jay is MiNE!

I love Willow's writing style every word pulls you in, you want to go on reading to unfurl every twist and turn.If you like an unconventional love story then get this book you won't regret it.

About Ker Dukey



My books all tend to be darker romance, edge of your seat, angst filled reads. My advice to my readers when starting one of my titles…prepare for the unexpected. I have always had a passion for storytelling, whether it be through lyrics or bed time stories with my sisters growing up. My mum would always have a book in her hand when I was young and passed on her love for reading, inspiring me to venture into writing my own. I tend to have a darker edge to my writing. Not all love stories are made from light; some are created in darkness but are just as powerful and worth telling. When I’m not lost in the world of characters I love spending time with my family. I’m a mum and that comes first in my life but when I do get down time I love attending music concerts or reading events with my younger sister.

[New Release * Review] I'LL MAKE YOU MINE by Gia Riley @AuthorGiaRiley @forewordpr

Cover Design: MG Cover

Release Date: 
September 13, 2017
Synopsis
A girl who’s ready to love. A guy who only wants one girl. Sounds like a match made in heaven, right? Wrong. With a twin sister encouraging her to hook up with all the wrong people, Zoe’s being pulled in a million different directions. Dylan Tuner can’t stand by and watch it happen. He’s tired of loving Zoe Allen from a distance, and he’s more determined than ever to escape the friend zone. Can Dylan get his best friend to fall for him before they graduate college? Or does Zoe already have a plan of her own? Two best friends. Two polar opposites. One final chance. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Her bio says " GIA RILEY writes because if she doesn’t, she’ll go crazy." That is a lie- direct quote from Maury Povich.
Gia Riley writes so she can maintain her place at Satan's Tea time. She laughs at your tears and plots the destruction of your feeble unsuspecting heart.
Perhaps, I came on a bit strong, you say. Ha! Clearly you haven't read I'll Make You Mine. Btw, Dylan is MINE. He got over Zoe and he and I live happily ever after the end- just ask Gia. Or don't she will just lie and tell you "that's not what happens." 
No, she will say...she wrote the book because Zoe would not stop rambling at her no matter what. And Dylan, sweet Dylan, was catering to Zoe and helping her drive Gia nuts. It's probably true. Zo is a weirdo, but the quirky kind you can't help but love. Or perhaps because she reminds me of me...(Don't snort, we both know I'm irresistible.)
So quirky girl and her best friend who has been eternally friend zoned but forever wanting more...(I saw you sit up straight.) She's clueless of his wants. He clueless how to tell her. (Just one click, I saw you scroll back to the link. You will not regret it.)
It's a perfect mess of awkward, sweet, and shake the shit out of the clueless. Oh and let's not even talk about the blurry eyed, squint I have going on typing this. We won't mention the fact that Gia Riley had me in tears and calling her an evil cow. Nope, I will keep that to myself...besides she just laughs at your misery. In case you feel like sharing, you have been warned. (Perhaps, she would say she was laughing at the evil cow and I hate you comments. But really I think it was the tears.)
Ok, all teasing aside...well most, it is a great story. It's chock full of feels. Everything from awww to WTF you say to her...So from gushing granny sighs to combative wannabe gangstas. Trust me she will have you up in grills and pulling out the Ben and Jerry's with the emotions on this one. This roller coaster only has one way it can go and you won't want to miss the ride.

[Release Boost] LUCKY NUMBER ELEVEN by Adriana Locke @AuthorALocke



Title: Lucky Number Eleven
Author: Adriana Locke
Genre: Romantic Comedy/Sports Romance
Release Date: September 7, 2017



Blurb

People say not to believe the things you read in magazines, but you know what? Most things you’ve heard about me are probably true.

I totally banged the reporter in the locker room after the championship game last year.

Those pictures in Expose from last summer? Those were not modified.

I’m also not really six-foot tall. (But let’s keep that between us.)

Now, I know you’re wondering about that last Expose headline—the one about me and my teammate (and ex-best friend) Finn Miller’s sister, Layla James. That one is a little more complicated.

Here’s the thing: I’ve played football my whole life. If there’s one thing I know, it’s how to adjust when the game changes. And if there’s one thing I always do, it’s find a way to win.

Granted, the stakes are higher. The playbook has changed. There’s more on the line than (another) MVP title. But guess what hasn’t changed? Me. I’m still Branch “Lucky” Best and I’m not about to fumble this one.

Grab a seat and a subscription to Expose. I’m about to make some headlines. (Again.)

A sexy, swoon-filled standalone novel.

Excerpt

“One question,” Poppy interjects, looking at Branch. “What position are you?”
“I typically like the bottom so I can watch—oomph,” he says, getting another elbow from Finn. “Wide receiver. Why?”
Looking at Poppy, I can’t help but laugh as her eyes light up.
“You got a problem with wide receivers?” Branch asks.
“You do,” Finn interjects, giving me a narrowed glare. “They aren’t any better than quarterbacks.”
Branch looks from me, to Finn, and back to me. “Why do we not like quarterbacks?”
“My sister was dating Callum Worthington.”
“No shit?” His face puckers like he just bit into a lemon. “How in the hell did that cocksucker end up with you?”
“He didn’t. We’re not together anymore.”
Branch’s eyes heat, the look causing my pulse to quicken. “I’m not a bit sorry to hear that.”
“You better forget you heard any of that,” Finn warns. “This is my sister, Branch. Not a cheerleader or reporter or some chick from a dating app. Got it?”
“Finn, relax,” I say, shoving a swallow past the lump in my throat. “I appreciate the big brother spiel, but I can handle myself.”
“I know you can,” he says, pulling his gaze away from Branch. “But you can’t handle him.”
