Have Connor and Shawn finally found themselves in a battle they cannot win?<o:p></o:p></span><br /><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14pt;">Excerpt<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">The firefight was fierce, bullets slamming into the crates, the tightly packed drugs inside the only thing preventing Shawn and Connor from being torn to pieces. Planks of wood shredded under the onslaught, sending shards flying, cutting into Shawn’s face and he turned away, looking toward the right. He spied Chloe, Mandy and Sebastian just as pinned down as he and Connor, but still keeping their enemies at bay with deadly accurate shots.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">Shawn turned back and leaned out sideways from behind the crate, snapping off several rounds. They found their target, the man’s head nearly exploding as he dropped to the ground. Shawn did a quick count and saw at least eight hostiles still standing outside, plus the three shooting from the windows and two from the doorway, all of them using AK-47’s—the terrorist weapon of choice.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">Multiple sustained bursts of gunfire further off to Shawn’s right signaled the arrival of Bravo Team joining the fight. Connor’s rifle angrily spat out rounds next to him, nearly deafening Shawn. Another quick look around the crate showed Shawn that several of the terrorists were being driven back closer to the building under Bravo Team’s advance.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">“They’re falling back!” Shawn shouted to Connor.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">His partner nodded and popped up over the top of his crate, eagerly looking for another target. Connor squeezed the trigger rapidly as an answering burst of gunfire sounded in return. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">Shawn watched in horror as Connor’s body suddenly jerked multiple times, a splash of blood arching through the air as his partner was knocked off his feet, landing backwards in a heap, eyes closed, not moving.</span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">“No!

Jamie Lynn Miller has destroyed it with Dying Soldier.<br /><br />I had the honor and privilege of being a beta-reader for Dying Soldier (as well as Hunted Soldier), and I have to say that Dying Soldier is the best in the Shadow Unit series, which consists of Broken Soldier (book 1), Rogue Soldier (book 2), Hunted Soldier (book 3) and now Dying Soldier (book 4).</div><div><br /></div><div>Through several email exchanges I found out that, although Jamie Lynn has written and published many stories, the Shadow Unit books is her first attempt at writing a series, and she's done an outstanding job.</div><div><br /></div><div>We first met the two main characters, Sergeants Connor Finley, a former SAS operative, and Shawn Weller, a former Navy SEAL and CIA operative in Broken Solder (Shadow Unit book 1)., along with a superb supporting cast of Sergeants Mandy Cho, a brilliant computer analyst/hacker from British Military Intelligence, Sergeant Chloe Davis, a former Army counter-intelligence agent. and Lieutenant Colonel David MacDonald, their commanding officer. Others are introduced throughout the series.</div><div><br /></div><div>Each book builds upon people and events from previous books. Jamie provides enough information on characters and events from previous books so that the books are tied together like a TV miniseries. Hmm, not a bad idea, right Jamie?</div><div><br /></div><div>She has a tendency to put the boys through hell, which is not all that hard to believe since Shadow unit is THE ELITE unit in a joint UK/US (and occasionally other organizations like the CIA) anti-terrorism task force, based in London.</div><div><br /></div><div>Dying Soldier is no exception. Shawn and Finn are top-notch soldiers used to being on the battlefield, breaking up one terrorist cell after another. But, what happens when they face an enemy that they can't fight? One that can take them out of the equation once and for all?</div><div><br /></div><div>After working together for four years, they finally gave into their feelings for each other and decide to become a couple, which happens approximately five months prior to the beginning of Broken Soldier.</div><div><br /></div><div>The characters of Detroit-born Shawn (with 'his patented middle-finger reply' and mission to see how many times he can say the word, or any form of the word, fuck in one day) and London-born Connor (A.K.A. Finn) are so well developed you can't help but get emotionally invested in them.</div><div><br /></div><div>Jamie plays on this as if she were a concert violinist playing a concerto on a Stradivarius. I'm going to be totally honest here. There were a few moments in the previous books that kinda tugged at the old heart strings, but at one point reading Dying Soldier I had to put the book down. I found myself crying so hard I couldn't read the words, which is extremely rare for me. I've never developed such an emotional attachment to a character like I did with Shawn.</div><div><br /></div><div>Dying Soldier is an emotional roller coaster the likes of which I've never seen, filled with angst, tenderness, camaraderie, and a team of soldiers (designated Shadow Team),which consists of Finn (designation Shadow One), Shawn (designated Shadow Two), Mandy (designated Shadow Three) , and Chloe (designated Shadow Four), who would readily lay down their lives for their teammates.</div><div><br /></div><div>If Shadow Team were real, I'd be honored to be a part of it. Perhaps I could be designated Shadow Five.</div><div><br /></div><div>Seriously though, there is a section of Dying Soldier that involved a hospital scene and medical procedures. Jamie doesn't allude to a situation such as 'he went into the hospital, had the operation and went home two days later'. Not a very interesting way to describe what could become a major plot point. Instead, she takes us right into the hospital and takes us through whatever procedure is being done with a great deal of accuracy, and there is a MAJOR scene in Dying Soldier. She makes you feel like you're right there as a family member would be.</div><div><br /></div><div>I cannot recommend Dying Soldier, indeed the entire Shadow Unit series, highly enough. It's a must have on everyone's eBook Reader AND on everybody's bookshelf in print form. Trust me, I have them all in eBook and print.</div><div><br /></div><div>Do I need to say it? Five out of five stars! Well done, Jamie. Very well done.</div><div><br /></div><div>Have you started writing Shadow Unit book 5 yet? I'm sure it's a question that everyone who reads the series will be asking.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

believe him, but he didn’t push the issue, either. Instead, he helped Liam to
his feet and back into the jeep. Liam leaned back against the seat with a long
exhale, cursing himself for acting like this. Especially in front of Colin.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times",serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

But freedom has found him faster than he’s ready for. His only brother hates him, and with nothing but PTSD and a newfound fascination with plants for company, the outside world is a terrifying place.<br /><br />A prisoner rehabilitation scheme lands him at a stately home that might as well be the moon. Working for gorgeous gardener Sid is a welcome distraction—his shoulders are broad, his rugged jaw unshaven, and his long, tanned legs?<br /><br />Wow.<br /><br />But Sid has problems of his own. A life-changing disease has left him limited in ways he can’t bear and accepting help, even from a stranger, makes him want to curl up and die.<br /><br />If Dante would let him.<br /><br />Newsflash: he won’t, and he’s not a stranger for long. With his dark smile and sinister ink, Dante Pope is the most beautiful man Sid has ever seen. Life is hard, but falling for each other is easy.<br /><br />Sunshine and shadows. <br /><br />Old ghosts can haunt Dante all they like. Loving Sid is the only salvation he’ll ever need.<br /><br /><i>Salvation is a sweetly angsty standalone MM romance novel in the Darkest Skies series. Expect: second chances, forced proximity, friends-to-lovers, and buckets of hurt/comfort themed loveliness. Content warnings for childhood trauma, violence, and chronic illness.</i></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMmqnEqYQVEOvLAqLcH6KShOyK2GsQr-SY58fxGKcBMbjKr6-KyXOtus1gycQLewVYThrbsAhh6qYnpdAYGI25equQdFI0iefC2CR35cehBSReBxxSLUaya_660xdonBSW5rkX4PsuA7o/s960/GLLogo.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMmqnEqYQVEOvLAqLcH6KShOyK2GsQr-SY58fxGKcBMbjKr6-KyXOtus1gycQLewVYThrbsAhh6qYnpdAYGI25equQdFI0iefC2CR35cehBSReBxxSLUaya_660xdonBSW5rkX4PsuA7o/w200-h200/GLLogo.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Garrett Leigh</b> is an award-winning British writer and book designer.<br /><br />Garrett's debut novel, Slide, won Best Bisexual Debut at the 2014 Rainbow Book Awards, and her polyamorous novel, Misfits was a finalist in the 2016 LAMBDA awards.<br /><br />When not writing, Garrett can generally be found procrastinating on Twitter, cooking up a storm, or sitting on her behind doing as little as possible, all the while shouting at her menagerie of children and animals and attempting to tame her unruly and wonderful FOX.<br /><br />Garrett is also an award winning cover artist, taking the silver medal at the Benjamin Franklin Book Awards in 2016.

As their wedding grows closer, it seems that nothing can stand in the way of an idyllic celebration, surrounded by friends and loved ones. But things appear to be changing; Jacob is forging a future that might take him away from Ryker, and Ryker alternates between pride and fear when a new man comes into his fiancé's life. A hockey season from hell has him doubting his life choices, but worse, he's driving Jacob into another man's arms. How has their perfect life suddenly gone so wrong?<br /><br />Life has certainly thrown many twists and turns in Jacob's path. Most of the goals he’d set for himself as a teenager had to change, but one has remained constant: finding his heart's desire and marrying him. That aspiration was reached when Ryker said, "I do". Planning their wedding was meant to be the best time of their lives, but Jacob unwittingly puts his trust in the wrong man and finds himself in danger. Is their love strong enough to survive the fallout?</span><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkwUJpl6vFQ4L9s9G1u1OAX_cHo_y7tOyHHp5Im4XSO96kFuWJoAYaGJd7z7F8mQmX4CNRLSdZZwsZdjGKBez3L8u8nPSgv_TYmBurjk115tBxgldIYBhdrdB2zEXjv8n38bZBxnpzoMk/s512/icon+web.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="512" data-original-width="512" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkwUJpl6vFQ4L9s9G1u1OAX_cHo_y7tOyHHp5Im4XSO96kFuWJoAYaGJd7z7F8mQmX4CNRLSdZZwsZdjGKBez3L8u8nPSgv_TYmBurjk115tBxgldIYBhdrdB2zEXjv8n38bZBxnpzoMk/w200-h200/icon+web.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>USA Today</b> bestselling author <i><b>RJ Scott</b></i> has written over one hundred romance books.

Finn could easily fall for him. <i>But,</i> he’s his <i>brother’s best friend</i>. He’s off limits, and Finn would never break that sacred rule...right?<br /><br />Jasper’s carried a torch for his best mate’s brother for years. Living with him sparks an old flame to light, and the more time they spend together, the brighter it burns. Finn is gorgeous and kind. He’s everything Jasper has ever wanted.<br /><br />But he’s also scarred by old wounds, and reluctant to let his guard down again. Friendship blooms, and for a short while, it’s enough. But the fire between them is undeniable. Finn can fight it as much as he likes.<br /><br />He won’t win.<br /><br /><b>A Christmas Break</b> <i>is a festive MM romance.

He wants moral support, so his best friend and flatmate, Jackson, agrees to pretend to be his partner so he can go with him.<br /><br />It’s easy for Jackson to be convincing when his feelings for Nick are as genuine as ever. He put his crush on the back burner long ago, but acting out a role he’d love to play for real is harder than he imagined. Holding hands, kissing under the mistletoe, even sharing a bed for the sake of the charade... He can’t help wondering what he’s let himself in for, and whether his heart can take it.<br /><br />Emotions run high as Nick grapples with family issues, and the sexual tension between him and his best friend becomes difficult to ignore. But if he and Jackson give into the temptation to be fake boyfriends with benefits over the holiday, what will it mean for their future as friends once Christmas is over?<br /><br /><i>Contains: best friends to lovers, pretend boyfriends, daddy issues, mistletoe, and a happy ending—of course.</i></span><i><br /></i><br /> <div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFQVtCwK9zYDKNyJjABlF4kZliH-ab4FNbX4YmgvqPTozMzCh7EjiuAq8UpvKOlcZklAt2l41Afhsw9XO23zGMvHHJVla2vQo2SeNRDp6K2ZUqZ-Y7m3VJ7vVg_0bGgBiT1O_j9tJRpig/s216/jay+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="216" data-original-width="216" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFQVtCwK9zYDKNyJjABlF4kZliH-ab4FNbX4YmgvqPTozMzCh7EjiuAq8UpvKOlcZklAt2l41Afhsw9XO23zGMvHHJVla2vQo2SeNRDp6K2ZUqZ-Y7m3VJ7vVg_0bGgBiT1O_j9tJRpig/w200-h200/jay+%25281%2529.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Jay</b> lives just outside Bristol in the West of England.

Hoisting the Cup, marrying the man of his dreams, and becoming a spokesman for LGBTQ2+ athletes' rights have filled his world with great joy. While his successes on and off the ice have been beyond his wildest expectations, he's now wondering if it's time to add one more tiny addition to his already wonderful life.<br /><br />Being a dad to Ryker and marrying Ten are the two of the best things in Jared's life, only something is missing. He always wanted more children, but with Ten and the Railers riding a wave of success, how could he even broach the subject of adoption or surrogacy with the man he loves? Jared would give the moon and the stars to his husband, so when Ten reveals his desire to be a father, they start a journey that will fill their Christmas with a new and special kind of love.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2VFq3iSsBbhnJhJlBoSFTA393IPyLSUEphggOQrQeap6qRUMfW7sn5KkwJ8K1qWRlXAc01ZYEJPEzqbzms_hAUgWjEv4L3YoTHqRY0ZUynU9WQcLsh9-Q5s1nEuMT02HO0witXtWDWaM/s1000/square.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1000" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2VFq3iSsBbhnJhJlBoSFTA393IPyLSUEphggOQrQeap6qRUMfW7sn5KkwJ8K1qWRlXAc01ZYEJPEzqbzms_hAUgWjEv4L3YoTHqRY0ZUynU9WQcLsh9-Q5s1nEuMT02HO0witXtWDWaM/w200-h200/square.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>RJ Scott </b>is a <i><b>USA TODAY</b></i> bestselling author of over 140 romance and suspense novels.

The prospect of a Christmas on his own is better than having to face either of them. When Rowan hires him for a wintery break in Maine, it seems like a safe choice until his PA’s meddling family shows him something entirely new: Love.<br /><br />Rowan hiring his boss for a trip back to his moms’ place for Christmas sounded like a good idea at the time.

Starting goalie for the Arizona Raptors when in season, lead singer for a hard rock band when summer rolls around. He’s the quintessential free spirit who’s making sure he enjoys all the carnal blessings of his athleticism, and gritty singing voice. Now the Raptors are moving into their first playoff appearance in years, but the arrival of an unexpected package means that hockey may have to take a backseat to something way more important. Instead of the usual undergarments from adoring fans, he finds a newborn baby with a small note tucked under her carrier, naming him as the father. He refuses to give up his daughter and is determined to be the kind of father he’d dreamed of having. But to keep Madeline, he’ll need help, and he’ll need it fast. Enter handsome emergency manny, Joseph. They may be opposites, but Colorado starts to see that Joseph’s stable, calm influence makes his chaotic lifestyle choices seem less appealing. There’s something about the man that soothes not only his infant daughter but also the wild child inside Colorado.<br /><br />Joseph is one year away from getting his degree in planetary science, working cover shifts at the planetarium, and pulling in income with short term manny gigs. Stars collide as he provides emergency childcare for the wild man of hockey, a man who moves so fast through life that he doesn’t know how to stop. Homeless, and caring for his niece, Emma, fate brings Joseph into Colorado and baby Madeline’s life. Madeline is a sweetheart, and Colorado is trying his hardest to make the best decision for his baby girl. He offers his home and an indecent salary, to keep Joseph in his life until summer’s end. Colorado brings mysticism and metal to Joseph’s sanctuary of science, but somehow Joseph needs to tame this shooting star and create a family. Nothing in the contract said Joseph had to fall in love to make that happen, but when it’s time for him to leave, will the void in his heart ever heal, or will it remain as cold as space itself?</span><div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="780" data-original-width="2050" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9QW8Q1uxNberOfjMhx_o-JN23ikRy3T2wPpGokJclN64TI6cz66T6F9vwXaENFOrTDUyLVILQ4WyQp7bvi3z5A9C0jc5sbU7uiouOBnvokAxVbvfS2adpqAtqHP1hhNghRQmHD2fRe-U/w640-h244/Add+a+heading-51.png" width="640" /></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1000" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8jM4ai1dxOc6284JkiG_OaIoSB_VuPaWSf2oJSUR2wIMMYMEHiWo1703RWTvX1fUY9UrVrcZ7xHDkmrboVkm24KawCH9GlqMT2GSftJ8fZGhN-Pg19MrQGWCZc5T7u52LI1CswkZR3nI/w200-h200/square.jpg" width="200" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>RJ Scott </b>is a <i><b>USA TODAY</b></i> bestselling author of over 140 romance and suspense novels.

Starting goalie for the Arizona Raptors when in season, lead singer for a hard rock band when summer rolls around. He’s the quintessential free spirit who’s making sure he enjoys all the carnal blessings of his athleticism, and gritty singing voice. Now the Raptors are moving into their first playoff appearance in years, but the arrival of an unexpected package means that hockey may have to take a backseat to something way more important. Instead of the usual undergarments from adoring fans, he finds a newborn baby with a small note tucked under her carrier, naming him as the father. He refuses to give up his daughter and is determined to be the kind of father he’d dreamed of having. But to keep Madeline, he’ll need help, and he’ll need it fast. Enter handsome emergency manny, Joseph. They may be opposites, but Colorado starts to see that Joseph’s stable, calm influence makes his chaotic lifestyle choices seem less appealing. There’s something about the man that soothes not only his infant daughter but also the wild child inside Colorado.<br /><br />Joseph is one year away from getting his degree in planetary science, working cover shifts at the planetarium, and pulling in income with short term manny gigs. Stars collide as he provides emergency childcare for the wild man of hockey, a man who moves so fast through life that he doesn’t know how to stop. Homeless, and caring for his niece, Emma, fate brings Joseph into Colorado and baby Madeline’s life. Madeline is a sweetheart, and Colorado is trying his hardest to make the best decision for his baby girl. He offers his home and an indecent salary, to keep Joseph in his life until summer’s end. Colorado brings mysticism and metal to Joseph’s sanctuary of science, but somehow Joseph needs to tame this shooting star and create a family. Nothing in the contract said Joseph had to fall in love to make that happen, but when it’s time for him to leave, will the void in his heart ever heal, or will it remain as cold as space itself?</span><div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="780" data-original-width="2050" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9QW8Q1uxNberOfjMhx_o-JN23ikRy3T2wPpGokJclN64TI6cz66T6F9vwXaENFOrTDUyLVILQ4WyQp7bvi3z5A9C0jc5sbU7uiouOBnvokAxVbvfS2adpqAtqHP1hhNghRQmHD2fRe-U/w640-h244/Add+a+heading-51.png" width="640" /></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1000" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8jM4ai1dxOc6284JkiG_OaIoSB_VuPaWSf2oJSUR2wIMMYMEHiWo1703RWTvX1fUY9UrVrcZ7xHDkmrboVkm24KawCH9GlqMT2GSftJ8fZGhN-Pg19MrQGWCZc5T7u52LI1CswkZR3nI/w200-h200/square.jpg" width="200" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>RJ Scott </b>is a <i><b>USA TODAY</b></i> bestselling author of over 140 romance and suspense novels.

Luis says that as well, but something’s been missing from his life. Even though he holds a glamorous position as cook/housekeeper/confidant for famed movie producer Caiden Dell, he dreams of attending culinary school. When he finally works up the courage to apply to one of the most prestigious institutes in all of Manhattan, he’s shocked when his application is approved. Overjoyed at first, he soon discovers that the heat is on big time as he battles with his insecurities along with one of his instructors.<br /><br />With his dream about to go up in smoke, he goes to see a Broadway play to lose himself for a few hours. There he buys a box of candy from another young man with a dream: Fraser Wayne. Fraser’s passion is the theater, but his goal seems as far away as Luis’ at the moment. Drawn to the man’s devotion to his ambitions as well as the beauty of his smile, Luis soon finds himself caught up in a love affair ten times hotter than any kitchen. </span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpGa06lRulrOEIsrYJyHeWhPNS4C_Aj8qeBDYcBfVqATIl3Knb_zsaQi_kVrIr_QTEwZP6P52qaAFH8nYxCnDrMOfsc2XDvKWeDt64057uWwoTTangKl8UU8gU-Vcb3Bspl9PcQXHnQEs/s400/Locey+Logo_FB+Profile+Image.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="400" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpGa06lRulrOEIsrYJyHeWhPNS4C_Aj8qeBDYcBfVqATIl3Knb_zsaQi_kVrIr_QTEwZP6P52qaAFH8nYxCnDrMOfsc2XDvKWeDt64057uWwoTTangKl8UU8gU-Vcb3Bspl9PcQXHnQEs/w200-h200/Locey+Logo_FB+Profile+Image.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><i><b>USA Today</b></i> Bestselling <b>Author V.L.

A college graduate by the age of eighteen and a doctoral candidate at twenty-one, he doesn’t fit in with his peers and lacks the social graces that would attract friends, let alone a lover. He’s resigned himself to his status as awkward and forever alone, until one bad decision turns his world upside down.</span></div>
<span face=""></span> <div style="text-align: center;">
<span face="">He shouldn’t have even been in that club. He shouldn’t have let a sexy stranger buy him a drink. And he definitely should’ve have let the man kiss him like he’d never been kissed before.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face="">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face="">Reed Matheson has done a lot of dumb shit in his short life but he never would have guessed that kissing a stranger in a bar would be the best decision he ever made. He didn’t expect the intense connection he feels for the shy, socially awkward stranger to linger long after he was gone. And he certainly never expected to see the cute guy the next morning, preparing to teach his class.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face="">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face="">Reed is a student and Jonah is a TA. Unwritten rules or not, nothing more can happen between them, at least that’s what Jonah keeps telling himself. But Reed has never been one to play by the rules and he’s not about to start now, when for the first time, his heart is on the line.</span></div>

<span face="">*The V-in 403C takes place in the same world as The D-in 403B. Side characters may overlap but each book is a complete story with it's own main characters and no cliffhangers. Each book can be read as a standalone.</span></div>

<span face="">Jess Bryant is an avid indoorswoman. A city girl trapped in a country girl's life, her heart resides in Dallas but her soul and roots are in small town Oklahoma. She enjoys manicures, the color pink, and her completely impractical for country life stilettos. She believes that hair color is a legitimate form of therapy, as is reading and writing romance. She started writing as a little girl but her life changed forever when she stole a book from her aunt's Harlequin collection and she's been creating love stories with happily ever afters ever since. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face="">Jess holds a degree in Public Relations from the University of Oklahoma and is a lifetime supporter of her school and athletic teams. And why not? They have a ton of National Championships! She may be a girlie girl but she knows her sports stats and isn't afraid to tell you that your school isn't as cool as hers... or that your sports romance got it all wrong. </span></div>

Nothing that I can think of.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Teacher/student stories tend to imply a significant age gap, which I tend to stay away from because of personal issues stemming from an age-gapped relationship. However, the synopsis intrigued me so I decided to give it a shot. I'm soooo glad I did.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I related to Jonah quite a bit as I was the shy, nerdy kid. I was nowhere near as smart as Jonah, but I was able to relate to him in other ways.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Reed is just a pain in the ass, but in a way that kinda makes him endearing. He's really good for Jonah, even though Jonah couldn't see it at first. I guess persistence pays off in the long run.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Another think I liked about the book was the way the author worked Star Hernandez, the firecracker from the D- In 403B. She's one of the best secondary characters I've seen in a very long time.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">There's so much more I'd like to say about The V- In 403C, but to do so would require me to give spoilers, which is the one thing I refuse to do in my reviews, even though I like to read the first couple of chapters, skip to the end of the book to see how the story ends, then see how the characters got to that point.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Anyhoo, if I could could give this book a hundred stars, I would, but I'm limited to 5, so 5 stars it is. One thing I can do, or actually can't do is recommend it highly enough.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I very much look forward to reading more about the gang from the 400 block apartments.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Well done, Ms. Bryant. Very well done.</div></div>

It’s impossible to get any loving when the bed starts shaking…and not because you’re having fun in it.</span></div>
<br style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" /> <span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">When Ian helps Charlie search for the source of strange noises in his house, they stumble upon a stack of photographs hiding century-old secrets. Curious of the friendship between the two men pictured, Charlie and Ian set off to solve the mystery of their relationship. With the help of the meddling ghost, a magical mirror, and a way too Smart TV, they find answers…and more.</span>
<br style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" /> <span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">And as things heat up between Charlie and Ian, they begin to wonder if Rachel's meddling has gone too far.</span>
<br style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" /> <span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">Doesn’t Rachel know Ian is straight?</span>
<br style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" /> <span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">Or is he?</span>
<br style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" /> <span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">That kiss they shared the other night sure didn't seem like it.</span>
<br style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" /> <span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">Or the one after that…</span>

<span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Felice Stevens has always been a romantic at heart. She believes that while life is tough, there is always a happy ending just around the corner. Her characters have to work for it, however. Like life in NYC, nothing comes easy, and that includes love.</span></div>

<span face="" style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">She lives in New York City and has way too much black in her wardrobe yet can't stop buying "just one more pair" of black pants. Felice is a happily addicted Bravo and Say Yes to the Dress addict and proud of it. And let's not get started on House Hunters. Her dream day starts out with iced coffee and ends with Prosecco, because...why shouldn't it?

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Jonah Monroe might be a genius when it comes to his studies but he’s never been able to find his footing in the real world. A college graduate by the age of eighteen and a doctoral candidate at twenty-one, he doesn’t fit in with his peers and lacks the social graces that would attract friends, let alone a lover. He’s resigned himself to his status as awkward and forever alone, until one bad decision turns his world upside down.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He shouldn’t have even been in that club. He shouldn’t have let a sexy stranger buy him a drink. And he definitely should’ve have let the man kiss him like he’d never been kissed before.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Reed Matheson has done a lot of dumb shit in his short life but he never would have guessed that kissing a stranger in a bar would be the best decision he ever made. He didn’t expect the intense connection he feels for the shy, socially awkward stranger to linger long after he was gone. And he certainly never expected to see the cute guy the next morning, preparing to teach his class.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Reed is a student and Jonah is a TA. Unwritten rules or not, nothing more can happen between them, at least that’s what Jonah keeps telling himself. But Reed has never been one to play by the rules and he’s not about to start now, when for the first time, his heart is on the line.</div>

*The V-in 403C takes place in the same world as The D-in 403B. Side characters may overlap but each book is a complete story with it's own main characters and no cliffhangers. Each book can be read as a standalone.</div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Jess Bryant is an avid indoorswoman. A city girl trapped in a country girl's life, her heart resides in Dallas but her soul and roots are in small town Oklahoma. She enjoys manicures, the color pink, and her completely impractical for country life stilettos. She believes that hair color is a legitimate form of therapy, as is reading and writing romance. She started writing as a little girl but her life changed forever when she stole a book from her aunt's Harlequin collection and she's been creating love stories with happily ever afters ever since. </span></div>

They have a ton of National Championships! She may be a girlie girl but she knows her sports stats and isn't afraid to tell you that your school isn't as cool as hers... or that your sports romance got it all wrong. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana;"><b><i>The most difficult of life’s choices might be the one we make when we open our hearts to another.</i></b><br /><br />Landon Reece is the ultimate Manhattan athlete. The elite goalie for the New York Metros is rich, handsome, generous, and purposely single. His life has been a whirlwind of fancy cars, beautiful people, museum galas, and championship rings. Landon now has one year left on his multi-million dollar contract, and the talk around town isn’t good. Despite carrying his team to the pinnacle of success, the aging goalie is hearing rumors that his contract might not be renewed next season. Hoping to curtail the rumors and show the Metros he still has what it takes, Landon and his agent set up a press tour to hopefully remind the fans—and Metros’ management—just how important Landon is to New York City.<br /><br />During one of a hundred appearances on the tour, Landon finds himself a guest on the newest and hottest late night talk show in the Big Apple. There he meets Montrell Pittman, leader of the show’s band, A Brush of Blue, and his senses come alive. He resolves to do his best to woo the upbeat, sexy musician who ignites his blood like no other person ever has. As the two men grow closer, Landon’s ice time shows how happy his new romance is making him. Then a tragedy rocks his world, and Landon finds himself wallowing in despair and in danger of losing the man who might be the only one who can clear his blues away. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: verdana;"><b><i>USA Today</i></b> Bestselling <b>Author V.L. Locey</b> – Penning LGBT hockey romance that skates into sinful pleasures.<br /><br />V.L. Locey loves worn jeans, yoga, belly laughs, walking, reading and writing lusty tales, Greek mythology, Torchwood and Dr. Who, the New York Rangers, comic books, and coffee. (Not necessarily in that order.) She shares her life with her husband, her daughter, one dog, two cats, a pair of geese, far too many chickens, and two steers.<br /><br />When not writing spicy romances, she enjoys spending her day with her menagerie in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania with a cup of fresh java in one hand and a steamy romance novel in the other.<br /></span><br />

<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;">Neither did Oliver Tunstead.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;">Oliver wishes for nothing more than to get his mind off his crappy bartending job, pile of debt big enough to swallow him whole, and playboy ex-boyfriend/boss who refuses to back off. Too bad distractions, like the hot little convertible he has his eye on, cost megabucks. And Oliver is flat broke. Renting the spare bedroom in his rundown beachfront cottage is his only option to pick up the cash he needs—a risky proposition, as Oliver is the polar opposite of a people-person. When he responds to a bizarre ad in the Waterfront Gazette seeking summer housing, he gets more than he bargained for. But Oliver can cope… After all, how much harm can a single quirky tenant do to his tightly guarded life in three short months?</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;">Where Oliver is a loner by design, urban cowboy Bodie is a loner by necessity. A family dispute long ago drop-kicked him onto the path of a lifelong wanderer. This changes when Bodie moves into the tiny beachfront cottage and starts working the door at Oliver’s bar.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;">Despite Oliver and Bodie’s nearly paralyzing instinct to avoid commitment, they fall into a wary romance. And to their surprise, life as a couple is sweetly satisfying; that is, until their jealous boss devises a cruel plan to destroy the tentative bond they’ve built. True to form, Bodie hits the road, leaving Oliver to lick his wounds alone. </span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;">Can these wounded souls defy their urge to flee and fight for love?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;"><br /></span>

<div style="border: 9px groove #fdf486; height: 400px; overflow: auto; width: 98%;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I needn’t have worried about Bodie keeping up. He’s a born runner, which is surprising for a man of his size. Once again, my mind is drawn to the question of football positions. Would he be a running back? A tight end? The quarterback? I shrug as I chase him along the beach, where the waves meet the sand. The man is big and fast—that’s all I know.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We pace the beach for an hour, sprinting until we’re both dripping with sweat. When we finally stop, Bodie toes off his sneakers, yanks his T-shirt over his wide shoulders, and plunges into the water. </span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Shit,” I murmur to Hugo, who is sizing Bodie up, right alongside me. The guy is built like a freaking gladiator. A broad sculpted chest tapers to a narrow waist. A just round enough ass, well displayed by soaking wet basketball shorts. Long, muscular legs. Light auburn fur in all the right places. A crown of russet curls. “My God…”</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My dog’s interest runs more to the “Bodie’s swimming without me” direction than my “what an amazing piece of eye candy” bend. He trots out to join him.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Water’s frigid,” Bodie announces with an exaggerated shiver.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“It doesn’t seem to be stopping either one of you,” I call back. “But pardon me if I don’t join in.”</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The sight of my two housemates frolicking in the Atlantic Ocean warms my heart in a way that it hurts to admit. My immediate instinct is to turn my back on them. To make my way up the sand to the street just to distance myself from a vision so bittersweet. But I don’t. I let the sight sink into my soul. </span><br />
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’m a damned fool.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; text-align: start;">Like Jude Munro, her fictional characters in her gay romance novels are drawn to the beach. They’ve sunbathed on the sands of many alluring East Coast beaches, along with the fantastical beaches in Jude’s books. They’ll answer questions like “Who do you think you are, the sun god?” (which they often resemble) if they can hear you over "Boys of Summer" cranking on their headphones. To most of Jude’s men, no shoes and no shirt is really not a problem. But even on the sunniest of beach days, the guys in Jude’s books do have problems… as in, serious relationship issues. Many of which seem insurmountable. And each character must earn his day at the beach. (Yes, there is always a HEA).</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Incredible. Amazing. Awesome. Astounding. Did I mention incredible? That's just a few words to describe Born For Leaving. Not to mention engrossing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After reading Born For Leaving I did something I've never done before. As soon as I finished reading it, I immediately turned back to page 1 and read it all over again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At first, the characters seemed to be a little one-dimensional with not much substance. My first impression was another twink-meets-gym-bunny story. I could not have been more wrong. It didn't take me long, perhaps 5 pages into the book to discover just how strong and multi-faceted the characters are.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've read other books where I was reading along and all of a sudden wham! The characters were almost completely different. How in the hell did that happen? I say to myself, going back several pages, even a complete chapter in order to figure out what made the characters change so quickly.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
No so with Born For Leaving. Character development happened at an even and easily followed pace. Even the villains, one of whom is a real nasty piece of work whose actions are so despicable that no employee should ever be subjected to, much less forced to endure. I really wanted to jump into the story in order to 'take out the trash.' It was a necessary plot point, though, the type that can create an emotional response in the readers. It certainly did me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There's much more I could say, but to do so would require me to give spoilers. No can do.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I can sum Born For Leaving in six short words... Buy it. Read it. Love it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I give Born For Leaving 5 out of 5 stars and I can't recommend it highly enough, It's a book that belongs on everybody's Kindle, Nook or any other eBook reader.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I sincerely hope to see more of Ollie and Bodie, and the amazing supporting characters of Hugo, Mika, Nico, Sam, and that little scene-stealer LeeLee.</div>
