Michelle Graves is a self-proclaimed nomad, moving every two to three years with her husband the Army man, her beautiful daughter, and a fat tailless cat named Torri. When she is not writing away trying to purge her mind of yapping characters she can be found entertaining her daughter, attempting to craft (whilst trying not to injure herself with the glue gun), baking yummy treats, or reading. She admits to having a restless spirit and forces her family to go out on adventures whenever possible. They lovingly play along.

Spotlight ~ An Unlucky Moon by Carrie Ann Ryan

Humans aren’t as alone as they choose to believe. Every human possesses a trait of supernatural that lays dormant within their genetic make-up. Centuries of diluting and breeding have allowed humans to think they are alone and untouched by magic. But what happens when something changes?

He's spent the last few years in hell fighting in the demon games and doing things that would haunt even the fiercest of men's nightmares. But now Hunter Brooks is back in the human realm,ready to take on the Pack that left him behind...and take the mate he's just met.

Becca Quinn is one of the seven lightning-struck women—a human who isn't so human and only needs to find her true half to unlock all that she could be. Hunter, the dangerous, sexy wolf,has saved her life twice, and yet she knows nothing about him—only that she wants to know everything she can.

Between the Pack's council and strangers who could take everything away from them, Becca and Hunter have more to fight and everything to fight for. Hunter's dark past takes over their courtship, and just when he thinks all his lost, he’ll find that Becca’s more than he—or she—ever thought.

Warning: Contains a sexy wolf who broods with the best of them, a woman who defines the term unlucky, and a chemistry that's sure to make the wolf howl in all of us.

Spotlight ~ Personal Assets by Kelsey Browning With Giveaway

Sex therapist Allie Shelby has the professional credentials, but she could use a bit more practical experience. Finding the right man to bring out her inner bad girl is tough in a population-challenged Texas town. So when sinfully sexy Cameron Wright rolls back into Shelbyville, Allie wastes no time inviting him to join her in some hands-on research.

But while her personal life heats up, Allie’s business is about to crash and burn. And she has to convince Cameron that she’s one princess who’s not looking for a prince to ride to her rescue.

Amazon / Barnes & Noble

Praise for Personal Assets

"A hot man, a headstrong woman, and sizzling chemistry set against a homey Texas backdrop--Browning's contemporary debut has all the assets that count!"

--Ruthie Knox, USA Today bestselling author of Flirting with Disaster

“Sinfully hot, sassy, and laugh-out-loud hilarious—everything a southern romance should be!” 

–Macy Beckett, author of the Sultry Springs series

******** EXCERPT ********

Allie steadied her breathing and tightened her halter top’s tie to simulate cleavage.

She swung open the front door. Cameron, wearing a pair of starched khakis and a light blue polo shirt stretched enticingly over his chest, leaned against her porch rail. She glanced down at his feet and had to grin. His cowboy boots would look more at home on a tractor than paired with date clothes.

He held a handful of summer flowers in his calloused fist, and warm pleasure welled up in her chest. “Princess, you can take the frog out of the pond, but…”

“I was thinking how much cuter you are than my first high school date.”

“Well, I can guarantee your daddy would’ve had a heart attack if he’d ever opened the door to find me waiting on the porch for his teenaged daughter.”

Would her life be different now if she’d dated Cameron back then? She probably wouldn’t have pursued her current career. Heck, she wouldn’t have needed to. Dating the hottest boy at Shelbyville High would’ve given her sexual knowledge and self-confidence to spare.

“And I would’ve had a heart attack if fifteen-year-old Alice Ann Shelby had come to the door wearing that scrap of a top, those sexy shoes, and a skirt that had a teenaged boy’s hands itching to find out what was underneath it.”

The phantom sensation of his hands under her flirty full skirt trailed up the backs of her thighs. Allie suppressed a shudder.

He was going to play it that way, was he? She could handle a battle of sexual wills. She was a sexually confident woman and he would not melt her into a puddle of teenaged uncertainty.

Cameron didn’t have to know it had taken a lot of courage for her to wear a flimsy crocheted halter. Achilles had a bum heel and Allie had itty-bitty titties.

Sept 2013

Amazon | BN | Kobo | iBooks | Indiebound | The Book Depository

AN ASSIGNMENT SHE CAN’T REFUSE

Agent Vaughnne MacMeans would do anything to avoid setting foot in Orlando again. But her new assignment, keeping tabs on a psychic kid who may or may not be in danger, is forcing her right back to the city where her sister was murdered. And the Special Agent in Charge isn’t taking no for an answer.

AN ATTRACTION HE CAN’T DENY

Protecting the boy Alex is a priority for Gus. Gus may not understand the boy’s “gift” but he just knows that some people would kill for it. When a beautiful stranger moves in next door, his impulse is to take the kid and run. But Gus has learned never to flee without a plan, and besides…she doesn’t exactly look like an assassin.

A GAME THEY’LL PLAY FOR KEEPS

When some dangerous people from Gus’s past catch up to him and Alex, it’s too late to run. His cute neighbor is the last person he thought he could turn to, but Vaughnne isn’t just cute. She’s fearless. And she’s the only chance Gus and Alex have left

Spotlight ~ Loving Lachlyn by R.E. Butler With Giveaway

Loving Lachlyn

Ashland Pride, Book Two

Available for Preorder in August 2013 in the AppleiBookstore,Barnes & Noble, and Kobo! 

**Official Release Date:  August 27, 2013**

For many years, mountain lion Alek Fallon believed he was fated to be alone forever.  But after meeting Lachlyn, he knows that he’s found his mate in the sweet she-bear and opens his home to her and her second mate, were-bear Jericho.  Lachlyn is a shifting dud and cannot transform into her bear self.  When Jericho’s father tries to force her into her bear form using a cattle prod, she nearly dies.  Jericho’s father swears to find them, and now Alek, Jericho, and the lion pride are working together to keep everyone safe.  When the mountain lions’ enemy interferes, it’s not only Lachlyn’s life that is on the line, but all of theirs.

This book contains plenty of m/f/m loving, two men who will love their woman to the best of their ability, interfering female lions who don’t know when to give up, and a camper used as a honeymoon suite.  Be prepared for growling, neck biting, ceremonial marking, and a lot of sweethearted male mountain lions who just want to find love.

I always wanted to be a homebody and live in one place for my entire life, but fate had other plans. In the past twelve years of my married life, we’ve moved seven times, including from one coast to the other. Southern New Jersey is home now and I love it.  I have two young children, a husband who begrudgingly pays for my ebook addiction, and two dogs that think they’re people. After college, I spent eight years as an executive assistant before “retiring” at twenty-seven to become a stay-at-home mom. I have a soft spot for self-published authors, Ghirardelli chocolate, muscle cars, and men with tattoos.  Most people who know me don’t know I have a tattoo of a tiger on my hip or that I have an unhealthy obsession with The Simpsons.

I love sunsets, several cups of coffee in the morning, and I absolutely cannot live without books. When I’m not busy with my family, you’ll find me sitting at my desk working on any number of projects, including reading, reviewing, and writing.

I adore talking to fans and other authors, so please write to me!  You can email me at rebutlerauthor@gmail, find me on Twitter, or join me on Facebook.

Book Spotlight ~ Three Days on Mimosa Lane By Anna Destefano With Giveaway

THREE DAYS ON MIMOSA LANE

 Seasons of the Heart, Book 2 

Publisher: Montlake Romance

Publication Date:  July 23, 2013

One day can change your life forever...Three days change a painful past into a beautiful tomorrow...

Once, Sam Perry had it all. A loving marriage, an amazing job she adored as a preschool teacher, and a beautiful home. She was safe, happy and secure. Then the unthinkable happened... Watching his once carefree wife withdraw into herself was almost more than Brian Perry could handle. The only thing that kept him going was knowing that he loved her more than life itself. Moving her out of New York to Chandlerville, a small, quiet suburb of Atlanta, felt right. Anything, to get her away from the memories of the buildings, and her world, crashing around her.

Now, two sons and many years later, Sam cherishes the new life on Mimosa Lane that Brian built for them. Until lightning strikes twice... Called a hero by her small community, Sam feels more like a coward than ever. Instinct draws her into an altercation at her children's school- an instinct that also drives her away from the warm cocoon of her family. Brian refuses to lose his wife again. He agrees to give her the space she asks for, but he soon realizes space isn't something they and their children can afford. He knows their love can still conquer all. But this time he'll need their entire community to help him win his wife back.

Available at:  Amazon

Nationally bestselling author Anna DeStefano has searched her entire life for the soul of the matter at the heart of her world's mysteries. As a small child, she drew from her experiences, senses, and dreams to paint a lush fantasy world, filled with endless possibility and characters of her own creation. Putting pen to paper, Anna transforms these inner landscapes into rich storytelling.

Hers is a realistic but optimistic vision, searching for hope and transformation through intense emotional journeys. Her fuel--the inner passions and conflicts of the characters she crafts. Much like a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly, Anna's characters face the ultimate of human choices: finding the courage to conquer their fears and thrive until, despite every obstacle, they become the beautiful things they're meant to be.

An author, workshop and keynote speaker, writing coach, and acquiring editor, Anna's creative vision permeates every challenge she undertakes. She wants you to stop, look, and keep digging, until you find the soul of your own fantasies. Her novels' rich blend of realism and fantasy invites Anna's readers into her creative mission to dig deeper and see each of life's moment with emotional honesty and clarity. 

Discovery and joy are her touchstones, regardless of how difficult her characters' journeys might be. She will challenge you to transform into all you're meant to be, as well. She speaks and blogs regulary. Join Anna each week for Soul Of The Matter, Dream Theories, Things My Teenager Says, How We Write, Waterfall Challenges, and more.
