EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT: Hot Shot Rock Star
Jazzy
“Afraid not this morning, baby. We have a team meeting and then—”
“Fuck the team meeting.” Need pulls at my senses and I know I can convince him. I need him to choose me over his team. A ball of fear rides in demolishing the sexy desire, turning it into this acute pain. Fuck. I squeeze my eyes shut, struggling against the irrational boogeyman from my past. I can’t do this to him, to us.
He pulls from the grip of my legs like I’m a rag doll because he’s stronger than Hercules and I know better.
“Sorry, babe. Raincheck for later.” He kisses my lips and then each of my eyelids, soft and loving kisses like he means it. “You know I’ll make up for it,” he whispers. Then lifts himself off the bed and stands as I pry my eyes open, forcing reason and logic to come back to me, fisting my hands so I don’t touch myself to satisfy the ache in my core.
“What’s so important?” I ask without a whine in my voice, not showing the fear in my soul, not hinting at the rapid beating of my heart. He pulls on his sweats and sits next to me on the bed, strokes my cheek because he knows I need reassurance, because I’m a fucking needy shit sometimes and I hate it, but he never does.
“Team meeting, weights and films.”
“Oh that’s all. You can be a little late for weights because you already have more muscles than a girl knows what to do with.” He laughs and kisses me long and hard
“Can’t babe. I’m a rookie and I can’t make any mistakes or I’ll end up in the minors.” He stands and throws on a t-shirt and his team hoodie and sneakers all so quickly that it makes my head spin watching him. My eyes follow him to the door.
“We’ll talk more later,” he says. Then he gives me that killer heartbreaker smile, the one that makes all the unicorn promises, the one I want to believe in so much it stabs at my heart and makes me bleed. He adds, “When we pick up where we left off.”
Kneeling on the empty bed, naked, I watch him walk out the bedroom door and close it softly behind him. As if I’m going to wait right here where I am until he returns.
I wish I could. I really do.
Then would I be happy?
Or would he be happy? Same thing, right?
I wonder if he’s going to visit Hal Walker before his team meeting. But if he does, that would make him a big fucking liar.
Only $0.99 until Release Day

Special Feature Books:
Tell Me Tru by J. Haney & S.I. Hayes
Tru Averdeen had everything a person could want. Money, fame, the power to influence others. Her way was paved on her fortune and her face. With porcelain skin, a head of fiery curls, all framing a pair of pastel blue eyes and lips like to pink roses she has been a Media Spectacle since she was born. Then she met Holly…
Holly Turner came up rough. Emotionally damaged all she wanted was a life worth living. Then she sees a face on TV crying over some lost rich daddy. Her wheels turn and soon she is face to face with Tru and the truth…
It’s been four years since that night. They don’t speak of it, not anymore. Tru has fallen away from the limelight, letting Holly take on her name, her face, friends. All Tru wants is a quiet happy existence away, and all Holly wants is what’s owed to her. It’s worked for four years…
Worked.

Cross by Heather Young-Nichols
Indie Cinderstone
All I want is to spend a nice summer with my rock star father.
But then some random guy assumes I’m a groupie and tries to kick me out of the venue.
That’s never happened before. Imagine my surprise when I find out that the random guy is actually Cross Rhodes, the smoking hot drummer for Courting Chaos, Dad’s opener.
I don’t fall for rock stars—ever. Yet Cross quickly has me wanting to break all the rules.
Cross Rhodes
What bigger mistake could I make than to call the sexy, sassy daughter of the man could make or break us a groupie?
Oh. I could also try to kick her out of the arena.
Better yet, I could not be able to get her out of my mind. Indie is off limits.
I don’t seem to care.
Hooking up with her could definitely ruin our big break and we already have our bassist determined to do that.
Still I can’t stay away.

Hope you're enjoying the fall and football season and have all the reading time you wish for.
