Excerpt:
“Know why I moved here?” he asked, keeping his voice low.
She wrenched her eyes from his and focused on a spot over his shoulder.
“Because you didn’t want to live in Columbus anymore.” That’s what he’d told her. That he wanted a change. That he and Lyon had outgrown the house. And, she imagined it’d be hard to live in the house where Rae had passed.
“But why here?”
“Um…”
His fingers grazed her jaw and turned her head, his palm moving to her neck where he cupped her nape and forced her eyes to his.
Reluctantly, she met them.
“Rae’s more alive when you’re around, Ace.”
Her heart, oh her heart. Kicking against her chest in a confusing, hectic rhythm.
“You bring her to life for Lyon—more than anyone else. I need him to remember her because he can’t remember her alive.” His hold stayed, his palm warming her neck, his gaze unwavering.
She tried to separate the two feelings she was having—one that she was now talking about Rae with Evan and two, that he was touching her while talking about Rae.
Before she could, his lips closed over hers.
Her thoughts short-circuited.
This wasn’t anything like a soft peck hello. This was his lips moving over hers, slanting over hers, warm and firm and then his mouth opened and—
Oh my gosh!
His wet, warm tongue slid along the seam of her lips and she stopped being passive and started kissing him back. When she would have touched her tongue to his, he relocated it, running along her bottom lip instead and tugging with his teeth.
If she’d been standing, her knees would have given out and dropped her right on her butt.
And then there was the palm on her neck, now spearing up through her hair and clutching onto a handful of it. He held her captive, his hand fisting her hair as he angled his mouth again. In response to the soft whimper escaping her throat, he swept his tongue into her mouth. He tangled his tongue with hers once, twice, and released her.
When he pulled his mouth away, a long, satisfied sigh escaped her lips. Because that was a kiss. A kiss to rival all other kisses.
She opened her eyes to realize A) she’d closed her eyes and B) she’d at some point wrapped both hands around his forearms where she was holding tight and C) Evan looked as please as she felt.
“God damn, Ace. Your mouth.” His eyes flicked to her lips. Lips still tingling from the rough scrape from the stubble surrounding his.
She concurred with that sentiment. Not that she said anything. She’d gone dumb; completely mute.
He backed away, but held onto her chin and tweaked it lightly with the rough pad of one thumb. “That’s the way this is gonna go from now on.”
Her breathing went shallow, her thoughts went muzzy and her head blurred as her heart palpated to the point of panic attack.
“Sorry, Rae.”
She didn’t mean to say it, and it had only been a whisper, but by the look twisting Evan’s face—the angry look twisting his face—he’d heard. And he hadn’t liked what he’d heard.
“Sorry,” she said to him this time. “I should go.”
Unbelievably, he leaned closer. She pulled her chin back until she realized she likely had a double chin, then settled her head on her neck in a more reasonable position.
Gosh. He was making her crazy.


About Jessica Lemmon:
Jessica Lemmon has always been a dreamer. At some point, she decided head-in-the-clouds thinking was childish, went out, and got herself a job . . . and then she got another one because that one was lousy. And when that one stopped being fulfilling, she went out and got another . . . and another. Soon it became apparent she'd only be truly happy doing what she loved. And since "eating potato chips" isn't a viable career, she opted to become a writer. With fire in her heart, she dusted off a book she'd started years prior, finished it, and submitted it. It may have been the worst book ever, but it didn't stop her from writing another one. Now she has several books finished, several more started, and even more marinating in her brain (which currently resides in the clouds, thankyouverymuch), and she couldn't be happier. She firmly believes God gifts us with talents for a purpose, and with His help, you can create the life you want. (While eating potato chips.)

To Chuito the apartment was a self-imposed prison for a lifetime of sins. To Alaine, the girl next door, it was salvation from her overbearing, religious father.

He was a devil. 
She was an angel.

Two people who should’ve never met, let alone become friends, but it’s not until they give into the dangerous passion that’s been simmering under the surface for five years that things go to hell. 

On the outside, Chuito ‘The Slayer’ Garcia is on top of the world.  He’s successful. He’s wealthy. He's a champion MMA fighter surrounded by friends who support him, but they don’t know what he was before he came to Garnet.

A gangster. 
A thief. 
An addict. 
A murderer.

Now his past is churning up demons he can’t ignore. Chuito knows he needs to go back to Miami to end it, but there's something holding him back, a single temptation he can't resist before leaving.

Alaine. 

She’s the one drug he can’t give up…even if it destroys them both.

“To me you’re coke. Fine. Smooth. Perfectly white. Very bad for me, but so fucking sexy I don’t give a shit. It’s worth going down for.” – Chuito Garcia

Synopsis

Life changes in the span of a heartbeat—one tiny heartbeat.

Blake and Layla have lived through disappointment and regret, only finally finding relief through the powerful love they have for each other. A love they intend to fight to keep.

They’ve had to forgive each other, but can they truly move forward without facing the pain of the past?

Layla’s been avoiding the phone calls. Nine months pregnant and exhausted, she doesn’t want the complication. But she can’t run from the truth. Whoever’s calling was there eighteen years ago. Unlike her, he remembers the night that changed the course of her life, and he’s ready to confess.

Blake’s preoccupied with an email, a few simple sentences sent through cyberspace that have the capability to rob him of his sanity, his freedom, and the people he loves most in the world. When he’s called home for a mysterious reason, leaving Layla isn’t ideal, but hope for reconciliation with his father combined with his brother’s secrecy ignites a curiosity he refuses to ignore.

Putting the pain behind them is no longer an option.

To get the answers they need, they must face the past and open up old wounds that threaten to bleed them dry.

Release Blitz & Giveaway: Miami Hush Club (Episode #2) by Michelle Warren...



I always believed that girls like me didn’t find happily-­ever­-afters. But despite my sordid past and personal demons, the Miami Hush Club promised to make my every fantasy a reality.

With a membership, they could gift me my dream job, dream car, dream house, and the perfect life for me and my little family. They easily sucked me into the madness and twisted me inside out, caging me until I didn’t know right from wrong.

The steep price of entry? My darkest secret.

There’s only one problem. Some secrets destroy. Some crush. Some fragment. Some even endanger the ones I love, and the one man I never imagined I would. Because some secrets, when shared, give power.
And power is a dangerous thing. Especially when the one pulling my strings, playing god, has the terrifying means to destroy me.

And worst of all, after I’ve given my secret away, I find the only thing that’s left is my wrecked and tortured soul. But guess what? Nothing’s safe. The club can take that too.




Miami Hush Club: Episode 2 ~ Excerpt:

“Hello, Nicolette,” Casper says slowly, his voice low and seductive.

The timbre of that voice causes my blood to hum with unwanted delight, and I wrap my arms tighter around my body, rooting my feet to my spot to secure a safe distance from him.

Not to be outdone by my presence, Alex instantly treats him as an object that she owns. It’s a clear message for me to stay away. She gives Casper another lingering kiss, and they both moan with pleasure as her hands travel down the front of his pants.

With a forceful grasp, she leads him to her room, tugging him by his dick. She may think she’s in charge, but it’s him who will dominate when they make it to the mattress—if they make it that far. I expect her bedroom door to slam shut behind them, but it doesn’t. Instead, they continue their sexual encounter as if I’m not even
here.

Another message: He’s mine.

Like a voyeur, I step to the door and peer in because it’s always me on the outside of the glass, looking in at and wanting everything that Alex has. Another reminder: She gets what she wants when she wants it.

That used to be me too, but now it’s only her.

I’m seething that she’s brought Casper here, outraged that they’re still an item and she didn’t warn me, and furious that I still care. She’ll protect me from everything else, but not from Casper. He’s the one person she feels for more than me. Maybe I’m jealous of that too.

He’s already naked and wrapped in her embrace as I watch him, every hard angle and curve. His abs. His ass. His cock. Perfection. He licks the slope between her bare breasts, but he’s watching me. Fucking her, but mind­fucking me.

Nothing’s changed.

And though I desperately don’t want to, all I can imagine is his body settled between my legs, sharp hip bones pressing into my thighs, injecting his soul into mine, hurting me in the most mind­bending and delicious way as I revel in every second.

I can practically feel it, but it’s not me.

It’s her. Always her.

Always Alex.

I’m sick. So very sick with envy and disgust that the past is replaying before my eyes again, and I can’t control myself. Anger and lust races through my veins. Alex and Casper are moaning and rocking with each other now, hanging over the side of the bed, half supported by the floor as I zone out yet again, transfixed by what’s happening and I cannot make it stop. She screams with pleasure and grabs his ass to gain his attention, but he’s still focused on me.
