Kissed (Jacob and Beth's Rockstar Life #1)




Download from me | Eden Books | Amazon | Amazon UK | Apple | BarnesAndNoble | Kobo | Google Play | Smashwords | Scribd |

One kiss ignites chemistry and passion they can’t ignore, but is this only a summer fling?

Neighbors. Best friends. It was only a crush Beth harbored for Jacob until she was eighteen. Until London.

Neighbors. Best friends. That was all Jacob thought of her until London. Until she kissed him and stole his heart.

It's funny what Geometry class and a shared backyard wall can bring about. With a two-year age difference, Beth and Jacob were firmly in the Friend Zone during high school, but a pre-college trip to London will change their lives forever.

KISSED is the first of five books exploring Beth and Jacob’s relationship with all its joys, flaws, and heartache. 

Contemporary Romance saga. This story is intended for readers 18 and over due to adult language, sexual content, and adult situations.

RELEASE BLITZ - The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland @PenelopeAuthor @ViKeeland @GiveMeBooksPR


RELEASE BLITZ
Title: The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand
Authors: Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 12, 2023
 

BLURB
 
Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don’t fall for the girl. 

After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest. 

Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more.   

I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn’t felt in a really long time. 

Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together.  

I couldn’t stop thinking about her. But she hadn’t even given me her number. 

In a city with eight-million people, I figured I’d never see Devyn again. 

So imagine my surprise when I knocked on the door of an apartment in the building I lived in, and none other than my one-night stand stood on the other side. 

If I thought Devyn didn’t want anything to do with me before, that was nothing compared to how she felt after finding out I was the landlord and she was about to be evicted… 

And that was just the first surprise that would rock my world when it came to the mystery woman in apartment 410.

“Can I ask you something?”

“What?”

“Were you jealous that I was out with another woman?”

Devyn looked away. “No.”

My lip twitched. “No, huh?”

“I wasn’t jealous.”

It was difficult to keep a straight face, because she was so clearly full of sh$t. But…if she wasn’t jealous, a few details wouldn’t bother her, right?

I sipped my wine and watched Devyn’s face. “Tarryn asked if I wanted to take her back to my place.”
Her eyes narrowed. “That’s nice.”

“We’ve had sex before. So I don’t think she wanted to sit on the couch and watch TV.”

Devyn’s face flushed red.

I couldn’t help myself. I wanted to see her get pissed—admit she was damn jealous.

“Yeah, that Tarryn’s a real wild woman in bed. Last time she visited, we broke a lamp. Knocked it right off the end table from the bed bouncing around so much.”

I watched the muscle flex in her cheek, the same cheek that was turning a lovely shade of crimson. Yet she still wouldn’t look at me.

“Devyn?”

Her lips pursed as she stared straight ahead.

“Devyn?” I said louder.

“What?”

“Look at me.”

Her head whipped to face me, and she stared with daggers in her eyes.

I smiled. “It wouldn’t bother you if I…fu¢ked Tarryn?”

That did it.

She broke.

But she didn’t yell at me like I expected.

Not at all.

Instead, she smashed her lips against mine.

It caught me so off guard that I took a few seconds to catch up. By the time I did, Devyn was hoisting herself over, climbing me like a freaking tree.

Fu¢k yeah.

This.

This was the chemistry we’d had from the very start.

I grabbed her a$s with one hand, lifting her higher, and guided her legs around my waist, so lost in the moment that nothing existed in the world except this kiss.

Which was probably why I didn’t hear the door open…

COVER REVEAL - What Happens at the Lake by @ViKeeland #coverreveal #contemporaryromance #romancereaders @GiveMeBooksPR


COVER REVEAL
Title: What Happens at the Lake
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Trope: Grumpy-Sunshine
Cover Design: Sommer Stein, Perfect Pear Creative
Photographer: Maurizio Montani
Model: Simone Curto
Release Date: January 15, 2024
 

BLURB
 
When life took an unexpected turn, I decided to get out of New York for a while. What better place to go than the idyllic small town my father spoke about so fondly when I was growing up? Laurel Lake held the title America’s Friendliest Town for seventeen years running, and friendly was just what I needed right now.
 
Unfortunately, friendly wasn’t the welcome I got when I arrived.
 
Instead, I got Fox Cassidy. My tall, dark, and burly neighbor, who grunted at me instead of saying hello.
 
Okay, so I might’ve had his mailbox in my hands the first time we met. And it might’ve been a little crushed after removing it from under my tire. And I might’ve needed his help breaking into the place I was staying in after the key broke off in the lock. But still…he didn’t have to be so grumpy.
 
As time went on though, I started to notice things about Fox other than his glares. Like how he watched me when he thought I wasn’t looking, or how fire ignited in his eyes whenever we bickered. Though I was in Laurel Lake to escape my problems, not create new ones. And getting involved with a man like Fox screamed trouble, even if he was gorgeous and unlike any man I’d ever met.
 
But alas, problem seemed to be my middle name this year. So why not have some fun while I was here for the summer? It seemed like a good plan. At least until it was time to go home…
 
They say what happens at the lake, stays at the lake. But it’s not so easy to walk away when what stays behind…is your heart.

Synopsis:

From New York Times bestselling authors Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland comes a new standalone romance.

It all started when I hosted a little party for a bunch of new friends.

Though “friends” might not be the right word since the invitees were all the women I’d found out my boyfriend was talking to behind my back. When the guest of honor walked in—aka my now ex—things took a turn...

Unfortunately, a stranger witnessed the whole blowout. I was in a mood that night and ended up giving this gorgeous guy an attitude, too. As if my night could get any worse, before he stormed off, he informed me he was actually my landlord.

Colby Lennon, along with three of his friends, owned the building where my tattoo shop was located. He and I were total opposites. He wore a tie, oozed confidence that came with years of women falling at his feet, and wasn’t afraid to say what he wanted, which lately—was me.

I hated that I found myself attracted to him. Especially since I was supposed to be on a self-imposed dating hiatus. Yet the two of us couldn’t seem to stay away from each other. We started hanging out, as friends. I even went as far as making rules for what he’d dubbed our “undates.

”But eventually, our explosive attraction became too much to bear, and we broke our resolve. I let my guard down and started to really fall for Colby.

Nothing could have prepared me for the ride he took me on. And I certainly wasn't prepared for where I'd wind up when the ride was over.

All good things must come to an end, right?

Except our ending was one I didn't see coming.


Penelope and Vi are offering their book, THE RULES OF DATING for FREE starting TODAY until November 5th only!  

This is in advance of The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand releasing on November 12th! (The third book in this series of STANDALONES.)

9/11 - 22 years later, we must Never Forget



A year ago, on 9/11, I wrote this for the back of The Drummer:


It’s September 11, 2022 as I started this. I could’ve waited until all work on The Drummer was complete, but I think today is really appropriate for Michaela’s story of grief and healing. 

I didn’t lose anyone close to me in war, but I am the daughter and niece and cousin and descendant of veterans going back to the American Revolution, so our military and their families mean something. 

Tech Guy and I still have a friend serving in the US Army now.

Gold Star Families have made the ultimate sacrifice—their beloved serviceman or woman didn’t come home alive, with 4418 US military casualties in Afghanistan and 7000 service members lost in combat in the War on Terror.

Four times that many veterans have committed suicide.

In fact, a recent study by America's Warrior Partnership found the rate may be 44 veteran suicides per day. If you’re suffering, please reach out!

9/11 is a day a lot of Americans have all but forgotten twenty-one years after those horrific attacks. I’m sure I wasn’t alone in seeing less postings of commemoration this year than in years past. We say “never forget” on 9/11, but we also used to say “never again”. 2,977 lives were lost on 9/11, leaving nearly 3000 children with permanently-absent parents.

The victims’ remains are still being identified twenty-one years later.

9/11 first responders face increased risk of cancer after being exposed to toxins at Ground Zero. Over 2000 deaths are linked to 9/11-related illnesses and over 3400 people enrolled in the World Trade Center Health Care Program have died.

Did you know only fourteen states mandate 9/11 teachings in their curriculum?

We can’t ensure future generations remain vigilant against terrorism if we don’t teach them what can happen and why and who made the ultimate sacrifice. Author Jim Serger put together a coffee table book titled 9:11 A Time to Always Remember filled with stories of Americans from all over the country sharing what happened to them that day and the T2T 9/11 Institute has educational resources about 9/11 for children.

There are many stories of bravery from that day, and since, large and small. Please share them with your children so the memories of their heroism and sacrifices will live on.
