seriously romantic: chance seduction by jess dee

this is another re-release of jess dee's samhain publishing titles and the companion novel to planned seduction. i'm going to be super honest here, i liked chance seduction so much more compared to planned seduction where both main characters annoyed me like whoa.

so in chance seduction, lexi tanner is intent on meeting aj riley because she has a proposition for him. she wants him to invest in a charity project that is near and dear to her heart. he's kind of reclusive though and she's not really sure what he looks like. when she literally runs into the hottest guy she's ever met she's distracted but not for long. when she runs into the stranger in an elevator and finds herself in his arms, well, it couldn't be helped. the spark between them was that strong. and the one night of sex was extraordinary.

so imagine her horror when she finally meets aj riley and realizes that he was her hot one night stand. aj, or adam, has been trying to get over the feelings lexi arouses in him for months. that encounter in the hotel wasn't the first time he'd laid eyes on her. and even from across a room he'd known that he should stay away from her. because she had the power to break through his shell.

ever since he had suffered an indescribable loss, he'd  been living a half-life. and unsure about how to best protect his fragile heart from more pain he blows so hot and cold that lexi suffers some severe whiplash. he rejects her cruelly and then pins her to him as if letting go were an impossible task. the extent of his pain is excruciating. what he puts lexi through is excruciating. but they have that explosive chemistry. and the fact that no matter how he protests he can't seem to let her go.

and that's something. and is it enough for lexi? because even though she understands his pain and why he suffers, it's still no excuse for how hot and cold he is with her. especially not when you consider how she lays herself bare for him. it would be an easy thing to hate adam, except you see how much he suffers. i love the deep emotional connection these characters share. and how they must overcome their suffering by letting love in.

**chance seduction will publish on july 24, 2017. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/entangled pubishing (brazen) in exchange for my honest review.

hmmm, it's been months since i've blogged about gh . partly this is due to the fact that i fell behind while i was traveling. partly because all the outrage lapsed into disinterest when i realized i couldn't bring myself to care anymore and everything that was happening was just so trite and boring. some days i still feel that way. and there are still whole storylines that i either hate or just fast forward through. but there are some good things too. in no particular order, here are my thoughts on the goings-on in port charles: 1. soras [and why re-casting roles works on soaps even if you do miss the original actors]: the new, older versions of sonny's kids are turning out to be quite enjoyable. [although hilariously, cameron whom i believe is older than molly is now younger. and because cameron is so cute, i'm kind of hoping they won't fix that. we also haven't seen spencer in ages, so he may be approaching 50.] in any case, at this point we've only s

genre debate: urban fantasy versus epic fantasy: team epic gets their say

Team Epic: Why I Love Epic Fantasy! Since it's my blog, I'll go first: Epic fantasies take you on quests that take you beyond the limits of what is real. The rules can be different, they are different, and everything just matters more. It's not just one life at stake, it's lives, it's a whole world, a whole way of being. Epic fantasies force you to use your imagination and take you on an adventure to places you never thought possible, but as different as everything feels, there are still things that are always real, no matter how you write it. Keep reading to see what a handful of Entangled TEEN authors think about epic fantasies: Erica Cameron - Island of Exiles (The Ryogan Chronicles, #1): Why do I love epic fantasy? It's a blank slate. We can erase all of our preconceived notions of society and law and even science, throwing all of that over the side of a cliff. Epic fantasy lets us push humanity well past the breaking point with ever

Releasing on August 8, 2017, read on for more information about The Forbidden , including an excerpt and giveaway! Synopsis What do you do when you can't control your feelings for someone? When you know you shouldn't go there? Not even in your head.  Annie has never experienced the 'spark' with a guy-the kind of instant chemistry that steals your breath and blindsides you completely. Until a night out with friends brings her face to face with the wickedly sexy and mysterious Jack. It's not just a spark that ignites between them. It's an explosion. Jack promises to consume Annie, and he fully delivers on that promise. Overwhelmed by the intensity of their one night together, Annie slips out of their hotel room. She is certain that a man who's had such a powerful impact on her and who could bend her to his will so easily, must be dangerous. But she's already in too deep. And Jack isn't only dangerous. He is forbidden.
