Cherishing the Goddess by Lucy Eden
Billionaire CEO Alexander Wolfe has spent years putting in 120-hour weeks in the office and adding zeroes to his net worth. But lately, work has left him feeling burnt out and uninspired. Then he is given the chance to go head-to-head with a legendary corporate raider and the man he’d idolized his entire career. He seizes the opportunity, immediately jumping on a plane for Barbados to close the deal in person. If he’s successful, it’ll be the biggest win of his career.
He had no way of knowing that meeting a mesmerizing beauty would have the power to derail everything…
Calypso Sterling has no time for men who value her beauty over her intellect. Instead, she focuses all her energy on her studies and career aspirations. But when her home—and a closely guarded family secret—is threatened, she’s ready to defend all she holds dear.
She had no way of knowing a handsome stranger had the power to take away everything she’d ever loved…
This standalone, workplace/ enemies to lovers romance features characters from Everything’s Better With Kimberly, is full of alphas and steam and has NO cheating.
This is the novelized, extended version of the previously published novella of the same name.

Excerpt
It didn’t hit me until his little speech. I’d always felt off my entire life. When I was a little kid, I would try on my grandfather’s huge business suits patiently waiting for the day when they would fit me. Taking over Wolfe Industries felt the same way. I had some big shoes to fill, and every day I pushed myself harder and harder to be the man I thought I was supposed to be, the man my grandfather raised me to be and the man the world expected me to be. Seven years later, I didn’t feel any different, but now instead of the suit being too big, it felt too tight. I was slowly suffocating, and Callie was my oxygen. If the role of CEO of Wolfe Industries was killing me, the role of Callie’s lover, protector, confidante, and personal comedian was bringing me back to life.

#Review “Beltane Bliss (Pagan Pleasures Book 1)” by Lilliana Rose
~~~
3.5/5 Stars
Edith is a white witch, a healer by nature. She’s in training to become a full witch and part of her covenant of Magiks.
However, before she can complete her training, she’s betrayed by her lover, Anto, suffers a devastating loss and flees from all she knows.
She ends up at a seaside village six hours from Sydney a week before Beltane and feels her psychic intuition led her to this place, just as it leads her to open a small shop, Crystal Sands, for healing. She needs time to heal herself and concentrate on her magical abilities, not the humiliation she suffered because of Anto or the disappointment her parents have in her for leaving him and the city.
Voltaire is a plumber, also used and betrayed by a lover. While working himself out of the financial hole she leaves him in, he’s also coming to terms with the loss of his mother and sister to breast cancer.
When Edi and Volt meet, the attraction is instant. But she’s sworn off relationships until she has healed and can trust her own judgment, and he’s closed his heart because of the way his ex turned his life upside down. He’s also not a fan of the “new age” stuff Edi practices because his mom and sister were believers and it did them no good.
Despite their broken hearts and better judgments, these two do get together, and it’s not a bad thing. They’re a cute couple.
This quick read has a good premise and story build that draws you right in.
Unfortunately, for me, there wasn’t enough follow through, and it could use a good edit.
Edi reflects on her past and the thing that happened but leaves too many unanswered questions. She’s a walking contradiction and I don’t know if it’s what she went through with Anto, the coming of Beltane, or just her personality, but her thoughts were jumbled and all over the place.
I don’t know the rules of Wicca or fantasy Wicca, or even fantasy magic if such rules exist, but for a witch-in-training who spoke of her lack of powers, Edi sure did a lot.
Volt doesn’t believe, then he does, then he doesn’t… choose a side already!
And what about Sol, the ghost?
Beltane Bliss is a light romance sure to appeal to romance readers and lovers of the supernatural. It has a nice ending that doesn’t feel rushed, but I needed the story fleshed out more.
Enjoy!

#ReleaseBlitz “Killer’s Choice (Choice Series #5)” by Dee Stewart
Title: Killer’s Choice (Choice Series Book Five)
Author: Dee Stewart
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: May 28, 2019
Cover Designer: Drue Hoffman at Buoni Amici Press
Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC.
Special Agent Jackson Barrington was hired by Jeff Williams to kill his wife Eden McBride while he was working undercover to bring down a dangerous drug cartel. After killing Williams and saving Eden’s life, he later crashes Michael Stone and Eden’s wedding and reveals his true identity. With Eden safely married and happy at last, he flies home to Barrington Ranch in Dallas to visit his beloved grandmother Devon Brooks Barrington on New Year’s Day. Hours later she dies in his arms after sharing a bizarre prophecy with him regarding a woman who will fall in love with him. Not just any woman. Lily Stone Beaumont.
Lily Stone’s perfect marriage was just a façade. After suffering a humiliating divorce which results in her ex-husband Adam Beaumont being awarded custody of her son AJ and her retaining custody of her twin daughters Allie and Alyssa, she moves to her hometown Marysville, California, in order to start a new life. However, her ex’s increasingly disturbing behavior concerns her, and she begins to investigate him.
She’s not the only one investigating Adam Beaumont. Special Agent Jackson Barrington just caught a new case…
Kindle unlimited
When the house eventually grew quiet, Jackson expected Lily to appear on her back porch, glass of red wine in hand, but tonight she took him aback by marching up to him and declaring in an imperious tone of voice, “I know who you are. You’re the ki…”
“Killer, yes,” Jackson interrupted with a dismissive wave of his hand. “We know. I hope your new sister-in-law clarified that I only killed one person that day. Jeff Williams, who damn well deserved it after he shot his pregnant wife.”
Ignoring the deepness of his voice with its Southern accent, his spectacular body, and vivid blue eyes, Lily continued, “She did. Why are you in Marysville, Agent? More specifically, why are you hanging around my girls at their school?”
Jackson mentally sighed. He wondered when that bit of information would come to her attention. “Well, Mrs. Beaumont…”
She bristled and cut him off. “Don’t call me that. I no longer use my married name. Miss Stone, if you please.”
I don’t please, he thought. His agitation with her served to make his Southern drawl more pronounced. “Well, lady,” he countered with a caustic edge to his voice, “after two years undercover, my supervisor transferred me to the San Francisco field office, and I’ve been training the officers at the McAllister Forensic lab in behavioral analysis.”
“Why aren’t you living in San Francisco? Why are you living next door to me?” she asked suspiciously.
“I like the view.” He tipped an imaginary Stetson.
Lily gritted her teeth. “Why are you constantly at the school?”

What happens when fire and ice collide?
🔥The Fire God Tour by Michele Sims🔥
🔥On Sale June 14🔥
Miles Moore is obsessed with fire. He can’t help it—it’s in his genes. He’s also the famous performer Ari, an international hip-hop sensation. There are some negatives that come with fame—death threats and life on the road among them—but there’s also a lot of good: fast cars, fast women, international travel, and more money than he can handle. When Bella Wahlberg joins his team as the chief of marketing, she seems like the antithesis of what he’s looking for, so much so that Miles dubs her Belsa the Ice Queen. It would be unprofessional for them to get together, but more than that, she’s unavailable—and deathly afraid of fire. But as they prepare for The Fire God Tour, Miles can tell something is changing. Is he ready to commit himself to one woman? Can fire and ice come together?
