Exquisitely Yours by M. Jay Granberry

What happens in Vegas…?
I don’t take anything too seriously
Not the career that’s brought me fame and fortune, or the never ending string of women that fill my bed, and definitely not myself.
But life has a way of turning on a dime.
The party is over.
All the jokes have been told.
One beautiful face blurs with the next beautiful body and all I feel is…empty.
Until her.
The sexy complication too intelligent to ignore and too complicated to keep.
Jessica Johnson isn’t supposed to be in my world but now that she is, I plan to make sure she enjoys the ride.
So, what happens in Vegas…?
Boundaries are crossed.

Author Bio:
M. Jay Granberry is first and foremost an insatiable reader.
Among her favorite things are classic fairytales, smutty books where characters have heart, old lady sweaters (preferably chunky knit), gift baskets (giving not receiving), and charcuterie trays (green olives, smoked cheese, and Genoa salami).
M. Jay earned a degree in words and stories, and after fifteen plus years of doing everything other than writing, she penned her first novel.
​She is a true Las Vegas native, the one in Nevada not New Mexico, and to answer the most frequently asked questions about growing up in Sin City…
No, she doesn’t live in a hotel.
No, she has never been a stripper although she does know some.
Prostitution is absolutely illegal in Clark County (Las Vegas).
And what happens in Vegas does indeed stay in Vegas.

About Proceed with Caution by Sandra Alex

He’s a heartbroken heartthrob. She’s a fugitive fiance. Sparks fly when Julia flees…right into Colton.

He had me at hello. Months later, I’m fleeing the state with an engagement ring on my finger. John isn’t the one. What looks good on paper is ugly behind closed doors. My sister Liz doesn’t know about John, but she takes me in, with problems of her own. The night I help tend bar with Liz is when I meet Colton. Liz warns me about him. Says that he’s a hardened man. And he looks it, too. With his smouldering eyes and square shoulders, he’s a force to be reckoned with. But he notices me looking over my shoulder and teaches me a thing or two about men like John, and not in a way that I would expect.

***

Afghanistan changes a man in a way that nothing else can. Betrayal does the same. Mix the two and you get me. It’s like I wear a badge, marking my military background, and then they find out that I’m a Ford boy and suddenly I’m a piece of meat with dollar signs. But they can all drop dead, because a woman is the last thing that I want. I bounce at a bar strictly to protect my little brother. He plays in a band in this seedy joint, and I’m here to keep his nose clean in more ways than one. But then Liz brings her little sister Julia in one night to cover, and I realize that I’m not the only one with a sibling looking over their shoulder.

A suspenseful, steamy romance, with loads of family drama, ‘Proceed with Caution’ has feel-good elements with heart-stopping, page-turning twists and angst.

About the Author

Sandra has been writing poems and short stories since middle school, and writing full length, self-published novels since 2010, using several pen names.

Writing full-length steamy romance series has quickly become a love for this author. Her stories have elements of humor, family issues, suspense and personal growth. Her books take the reader right into the bedroom with the characters to feel the same intensity as the lovers do in the story. Sandra’s goal is to have the reader rooting for the main couple…and she doesn’t disappoint.

You’ll find this author working out weekday mornings at ungodly hours. She’s gluten and dairy free, and is probably the only person on earth who doesn’t do coffee or chocolate.

Her favorite movie is Bohemian Rhapsody, her favorite tv shows are Friends and The Connors. She’s also a die-hard Rocky fan and has read the Fifty Shades trilogy and watched the movies more times than she cares to admit.

Sandra is married with two daughters and is a lover of all things four-legged, including her own two furbabies.

The Ford Brothers series focuses on five swoon-worthy brothers who each served in the military, and lost their billionaire father suddenly, which left them to run his airline after his death. Each book features one brother, but they make appearances in all five novels. In case you haven’t guessed, the titles in the Ford Brothers series have been inspired by hazard warning signs, an idea the author came up with after completing a health and safety course prior to starting the series.

The Miles for Love series is about unexpected love, and it features the Lynch family; four brothers and one sister, who are each passionate, imperfect, and are just like you and I…but way sexier and with much more interesting lives. They are very individual and each have a unique story to tell.

The Rock Star Romance series is inspired by the death of Eddie Van Halen on October 6, 2020. It is a standalone series unlike any other this author has written. Look for this series! It’s available now!

Baltimore, 1909. The city is jumping with danger and excitement. Cars, cocaine, ragtime music, and moving pictures are new.

After getting fired for looking too closely into a showgirl’s killing, she refuses to back down from the investigation. She forms an unlikely bond with Jack Harden, a down-on-his-luck private detective suffering from a wartime emotional trauma. Despite their many differences, Sarah and Jack develop a rare mutual understanding and form a potent team.

About The Magic Words and the 12 Steps – We Are All Recovering From Something

The Magic Words and the 12 Steps – We Are All Recovering From Something

“Embrace and enjoy the journey, and the journey will carry you graciously into a new life – one far beyond anything you ever could have imagined.” ~~~Jon Lovgren.

What is the journey? For the alcoholic or drug addict or any of the other multitude of 12-step groups, the journey begins with the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous® in one form or another. As you know, this 12-step program has healed millions of people struggling with alcohol, drugs – both street and pharmaceutical, food, sex, gambling, etc.

The fact that so many people have healed and are healing every day is testament to the validity and soundness of the program. Why is everyone not practicing these principles in all their affairs? Because they think they are not addicted to anything and the Big Book only applies to those that are addicted.

We believe the 12-step program and the Big Book is applicable for everyone with only a few minor changes that do not take away from the program.

We both have over 25 years of the AA program and remain sober today. We, like many others, had a point in our journey when we asked ourselves, “Is this all there is? Now what?” We were in a spiritual quandary; we did indeed have the Spiritual Awakening the program promises; however, we felt there must be more. How can we maximize or enhance our spiritual connection? The awakening promised in the program opens the door. We experience the peace, joy, and happiness on occasion, but how can we keep it, maintain it, have it more often than not?

We open the door and look for things that will improve our spiritual journey. We find there are many books on the subject and all are helpful if we but keep an open mind. Our path led us to an ancient Hawaiian practice of love, humility, forgiveness, and gratitude. Ho’oponopono teaches us that we are all 100% responsible for everything in our lives. When we embrace and embody that, we stop blaming, we realize we are the only one to blame. When we eliminate blame, we begin to see we no longer have excuses. We take full responsibility for our own lives, not relying on anyone else to ‘fix us’ or control us.

Is this not the primary purpose of the steps – to teach us self-responsibility? We can best carry the message to others needing it if we are living it ourselves. Getting our own houses in order.

When we added ho’oponopono to our own programs, we noticed very profound changes. We are at peace more than not, regardless of the situation or circumstances, and if we do lose our peace momentarily, we know how to get it back immediately.

Ten years of combining ho’oponopono with the steps has opened our eyes to the endless possibilities before us. As we learned in the program, “You keep what you have by giving it away.” In that vein, we wrote a book combining the two as well as bringing the 12-step program to everyone. It is no longer, “Just for alcoholics and drug addicts.”

About The Blood King

Ruthless dragon king Ladon Ormarr must keep his throne—and his people—safe from the cruel High King at all costs. With war on the horizon, he’ll need a miracle to protect his clan. Luckily, the fates have dropped the irresistible Skylar Amon right into his lap.

Or so he thought. Because the last thing this phoenix wants is him.

A phoenix mate is the ticket to securing his throne, but this fiery Amon sister detests Ladon, doesn’t stick to protocols, and regularly offends his warriors and advisers.

Skylar also has no intention of sticking around, nor does she believe in the whole destined-mates thing. But if it means taking out the High King who murdered her parents, she’ll put up with the too-sexy-for-her-sanity Ladon…temporarily.

Their mating bond may make them want to tear off their clothes, but outside the bedroom…well, Ladon is positive the fates hate him. Just as he starts to win over the mercurial phoenix, everything goes to hell when the High King makes his final move. And Ladon will burn down the world to keep the mate he is unwilling to live without.
