Review: On My Knees by Meredith Wild





Released: March 17
Bridge Series #1


Synopsis:

Haunted by the responsibility of caring for her troubled family, Maya Jacobs gave the only answer she could when Cameron asked her to marry him. Years later, entrenched in a soulless professional routine, she distracts herself from the lingering regret of her decision with a “work hard, play hard” lifestyle that guarantees no man will ever find his way into her heart again.

Cameron Bridge has spent the past five years married to the military, trying to escape the painful memory of losing Maya. After fighting his own war in the desert, he starts a new life in New York City, with his siblings, Olivia and Darren, by his side. 

When fate brings Maya back to him in the heart of a city filled with its own hopes and shadows, can Cameron find the girl he once loved in the woman she’s become?

Review:

I fell in love with Meredith Wild's writing through her Hacker Series, and she hooked me again with On My Knees!

 I was completely captivated by their story before the prologue was even over.  I just knew I would need plenty of tissues handy and I was right.  The way Meredith sucks you in immediately is amazing.  My heart was broken before the book even began and very, very slowly, she put it back together through  a beautiful second chance love story.

Cameron might possibly be the most patient and understanding man ever!  Maya put him through so much, but she herself was going through so much too, that I felt for her even when I was utterly frustrated by her.  I kept cheering for Cameron to stay strong, and he did!  My heart broke for both of them. Their struggles, their triumphs, their heartaches, their love, and all the highs and lows were so real that you can't help but become a part of them and feel everything they go through.

 The characters are so well developed, the writing phenomenal, and the story itself is A+. -Tynna

USA Today bestselling author, Meredith, Wild picked up her first romance novel at the tender age of twelve. Shortly after, she put pen to word processor and made her first attempt at writing a love story inspired by those she so enjoyed reading well past her bedtime. 

Her dream of writing took a back seat to college, parenthood and eventually entrepreneurship, which led her into the fast-paced high tech industry. With enough life experience to fill a few lifetimes, she now devotes her hours to writing contemporary adult romance with a hint of kink.
When she isn’t writing or mothering, Meredith can be found sunbathing with an adult beverage.

Book Blitz: The Ransom Series by A.T. Douglas

 



Synopsis: 


My body is broken.

My life is shattered.

Everything I've ever known is gone from me, yet I've discovered something beautiful.

I didn't expect to be taken.   I never dreamed that love would find me while my life was slowly stripped away.  With him something new and alive stirs within me, and I am completely changed.

Though battered and broken-down, I'm not alone.   The most unlikely man protects me and gives me strength.

I will survive this for him.  I will find a way to save us both.

While they hold me, he holds my heart, and I'm not willing to pay the price to get it back.

WARNING: Beyond Ransom and Beyond Revenge are New Adult Romantic Suspense novels intended for mature audiences 18+.  They contain disturbing situations, graphic violence, strong language, and sexual content.


EXCERPT

 

I don’t think Leo even notices our proximity until a slight gasp escapes my lips.  They’re parted slightly, eagerly awaiting another pair of lips to reciprocate theirfervent desire for contact.

Leo stills above me for a moment, observing me intently and clearly interpreting the signals my body is sending to him.  He dips his face down toward me until ourmouthare within centimeters of each other.  I can feel his breath pass between my lips.  I can feel the heat of his skin so close to mine.


He moves the tiny amount of distance to close the space between us and connects with my lips, touching them gently with his own before engaging them more forcefully.


Our kiss becomes frenzied and desperate, as if this may be the last night we ever see each other and we’re making the most of the time we have left before we’re separated.  Leo’s hands are in my hair, his thumbs caressing my cheeks, his tongue exploring my mouth.  I feel like he’s all over me and in me and on me in every way possible even though we’re only kissing.  My hands fist his shirt and pull desperately at his shoulders and neck.


I’ve kissed guys before in high school, but never like this.  This is passion at its purest.  This is undeniable lust.  These are the needs and longings and desires of two bodies coming together in one moment amidst a swirl of surrounding chaos.


I feel the change in Leo’s demeanor even before he withdraws from me.  He stares at me for a moment, my eyes still wide with lust and my chest rising and falling erratically.


“This is a bad idea,” he says quietly before standing up and looking at the door behind him.  “This will not end well for either of us if we’re caught.  We can’t do this.”


I pause for a moment before looking away from him.  Though my mind completely understands his concern, my body really doesn’t give a shit.  Whatever just passed between us made me feel alive.  I felt a strange taste of freedom despite my captive state.  That one experience and this gorgeous and caring creature in front of me gave me something to live for, even if only for a few short moments.  Now I just feel hollow.




“Okay.”  It’s my go-to answer in this place.  It’s obedient and submissive, just how they want me to be.

I can’t look at him now.  I’m too embarrassed and disappointed in what just happened to face him.


I hear the first aid kit being closed up followed by footsteps moving away from me to the door.  My eyes close to fend off the burn of tears behind my eyelids.

 

Leo doesn’t say another word as he leaves me, vulnerable and alone, locking the door behind him.

Cover Reveal: Pursuit by Dawn Robertson and Jo-Anna Walker

 
 

Synopsis:
Jude Emerson would never admit his love for Jenny Sunshine until he lost her to another man.
Lori London’s world crumbled when her husband was killed in combat, leaving her pregnant and alone.
Time has passed but hearts haven’t healed.
Obsession drives Jude.
Desperation leads Lori into a life she never would have considered.
When their paths cross, broken souls slowly begin to mend.
But can the ghosts of their pasts stay away long enough for love to be born?
Or will they be destined to a life of hurt, and loneliness?
When Jo-Anna isn't working her Monday-Friday 9-5 job, she's spending her time reading, writing and with the love of her life.
 
She's an all-around Canadian girl. Born and raised in a small city.
If you don't see Jo-Anna writing, you'll find her with her nose in a book. Whether it's her words or someone else's, she's drawn to it.
Jo-Anna loves stories with Alpha broken males and that need to be ripped apart and put back together again. Men that fall to their knees over a wink or a giggle from their females.
Two things you will never find Jo-Anna without; her cell phone and lip gloss. If she has both of those items, you have a happy girl.
Since starting her writing adventure in 2013, Jo-Anna has met many people, real life, online, in her head and she loves every single one of them. Without the support from others, none of this would be possible and she's grateful for all that has been given to her.
To learn more, visit Jo-Anna on her blog, on Twitter, Facebook, Goodreads and Pinterest.
Jo-Anna Walker is also author of Break Me, Always Me, In the Heart of Forever (A Heart Story) and Possessed by You.
 Dawn Robertson is a twenty-something indie erotic romance, and mother. She lives in sunny senior citizen packed Florida, where she wrangles her kids, and Pitbull puppy.
Dawn can normally be found swearing like a sailor, making late night drive-thru appearances, arguing with her kids (or being run over by their power wheels), reading a steamy romance while hiding in her bathroom, writing her little heart out on her laptop (or dragging her Macbook to the Genius bar praying they can save her latest work in progress), or sipping on a smoothie. She loves to hear from her fans, readers, and authors alike. Feel free to drop her a message.
Dawn rarely takes life seriously, so be sure to expect heavy sarcasm from her. She is also the life of the party, so be sure to meet up with her at one of the many author events she will be attending in the next couple months. Buy her a shot of whiskey, and she will love you for life.
