Synopsis:

This shouldn't be happening again

Amber Scott thought her screaming nightmares would end now that her stalker is locked up and awaiting trial. But they return when her slam-dunk case starts to fall apart. Explicit letters she allegedly wrote surface, suggesting she was the mastermind behind her assault, a willing victim.

Amber only feels safe in the arms of her boyfriend Marcus, the one person she can lean on. Until damning evidence from Marcus's past collides with the case and the media circus drags them both down. To protect Amber's reputation, Marcus has only one option: end their relationship. He won't risk further damage to her case, even if it means breaking her heart.

Amber has to find the strength to step into the spotlight and bring awareness to victims' rights before she's convicted in the court of public opinion. And she's really not sure what's worse—that her kidnapper could walk free, or that the seemingly endless attention and speculation will drive Marcus away permanently.

See how it all began for Amber and Marcus in Tell Me When.




LET ME KNOW
by Stina Lindenblatt

Marcus

The warm, soft body under my arm jerks, jolting me awake. I open my eyes to find my room is still dark and Amber’s whimpering and moving restlessly on the bed. 

I run my hand down her bare arm. “Amber, you’re having a nightmare.”

She mumbles something and her knee lashes out. She makes a direct hit. Against. My. Fucking. Package. A white light blinds me and I squeeze my eyes shut. Groaning, I fold in two at the same moment Amber starts screaming. Shit.

Somehow around the mind-numbing pain, I manage to pry my eyes open. I need to calm her down before she wakes up the whole goddamn building with her screams.

“Kitten, it’s okay. It’s just a nightmare.”

She continues tossing and turning in her sleep. I can’t believe she hasn’t woken herself up with the noise she’s making. 

Pushing past the pain, I scoot closer to her and touch her arm again. She sits up abruptly, still screaming, arms flailing. The sheet drops away, revealing her breasts. For once, my dick isn’t interested. 

I sit up, and while risking all kinds of injuries, gather her in my arms. Unlike before, she relaxes at my touch and her screams fades away, to be replaced by gentle sobbing.

Amber rests her head against my shoulder as Chase busts into the room. At the sight of a half-naked Amber, he spins around, mumbling, “Sorry.” 

I pull the sheet up to cover her breasts. “You can turn around. She’s covered.”

Chase turns back to us, face redder than I’ve ever seen. He doesn’t embarrass easily and it’s not like he’s never seen a naked woman before. Pride rushes through me at his reaction. He knows Amber’s mine. He respects both that and her. 

“You guys okay?” he asks. “I heard you groaning and her screaming, and neither of you sounded like you were having good time.”

“She had a nightmare,” I tell him. Chase knows she suffers from them. She’s woken up before, screaming, but never this bad. At least not while she’s been with me. 

Amber lifts her head from my shoulder. “I’m sorry I woke you,” she whispers, voice hoarse. 

Chase steps up to the bed and smiles. “Scooch over,” he tells her. She does and he sits next to her. “You gonna be all right?” He’s not just referring to what happened. He’s referring to the fake love letters and everything else she’s dealing with, no thanks to the psychopath. 



It’s something we’re all wondering. Me. Her mom and grandmother. Emma. Jordan. None of us want to see her destroyed because of what the sick fuck did to her. She’s so strong, but even steel has its limits.

Carina Press New Adult





Wild Ones (The Lane #1)
Publisher: Carina Press
Release Date: January 13th 2014

Synopsis:

Bri Martin likes her skirts too short, her heels too high, and trouble close at hand. So when big, brooding underground boxer Luke Turner comes into the bar where she works and starts a fight before she brings his first drink, she can't help being intrigued. Luke is everything she never wanted and everything she can't resist.

Soon, Luke is showing up everywhere Bri is, and she can't break free of his hold on her, nor does she want to. When her best friend turns on her, it's Luke who is there. When Luke's opponent comes after her to send Luke a message, it's he who comes to her rescue.

Before Bri knows it, she's caught in the midst of a rivalry between her boyfriend and her boss, both of whom are not content to settle their scores inside the ring. She swore she'd never live this life, so like the one she once ran from. But only by confronting her past can she decide where her future lies…and whether Luke can be a part of it.



Tell Me When
Publisher: Carina Press
Release Date: January 20th 2014
Synopsis:

Amber Scott should be enjoying life as a college freshman. She should be pursuing her dream of becoming a veterinarian. She should be working hard to make sense of her precalculus math class. 

She shouldn’t be waking up her college roommate with screaming nightmares. She shouldn’t be flashing back, reliving the three weeks of hell she barely survived last year. And she definitely shouldn’t be spending time with sexy player Marcus Reid. 

But engineering student Marcus is the only one keeping Amber from failing her math course, so she grudgingly lets him into her life. She never expects the king of hookups will share his painful past. Or that she’ll tell him her secrets in return, opening up and trusting him in a way she thought she’d never be able to again. 

When their fragile future together is threatened by a stalker Amber thought was locked away for good, Marcus is determined to protect her. And Amber is determined to protect Marcus…even if that means pushing him away.



Quicksilver Dreams (Dreamwalkers #1)


Publisher: Carina Press

Release Date: January 6th 2014

Synopsis:

My name is Taylor, and damn but my life changed overnight. One moment I was just a regular girl working two jobs to pay my bills, and next thing you know, I'm uncovering secret metal disks at my boss's house. Now I'm reading minds, dream-walking and being saved from bad guys by Mr. Dark and Brooding.

That would be Ryder Langston, my new next-door neighbor. He's sex on legs, but he's also a secret agent from another world—no joke. I believe him now, because he dragged me back here "for my protection" after he discovered someone was trying to assassinate me on Earth. It isn't working out so well.

There's a war going on, one that's been fought for generations. Ryder's having trust issues (not that it's stopping us from falling into bed), and it turns out I'm connected here, if you know what I mean. The target on my back finally makes sense, but there's nowhere left to hide…



Redemption (Defiance #2)
Publisher: Carina Press
Release Date: November 18th 2013

Synopsis:

Matthias Robichaud is looking for an alliance. The Defiance motorcycle club is a stronghold in the dangerous world that’s become the new norm and he’s driven to prove he’s tough enough to be sworn in as a full member. But when he sees a beautiful, spirited girl abducted by a rival MC, rescuing her jeopardizes all he’s worked for.

Politician’s daughter Jessa Everson knows what’s expected of her—obedience, loyalty and silence—but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t fight when she’s kidnapped by the Lords of Vengeance. Having Matthias save her is like gaining an avenging angel in leather and tattoos. But Defiance is known for brutal justice, and she may have just traded one bad situation for another.

Matthias’s urge to protect is too strong to ignore, no matter how much trouble Jessa brings to Defiance’s gates. There’s no room in the post-Chaos world for weakness so if Matthias and Jessa have any chance of surviving, they’ll need to put their full strength behind the MC…and hope that the MC will do the same for them.

Because I have so many favorite movies, it wasn’t easy to narrow the list down to ten (and I technically didn’t). I also realized that they’re all over the place when it comes to genre. The only common thread is the romance. I’m a sucker for romance. So here they are in no particular order:


I only recently discovered this movie at a friend’s recommendation and love it. There are so many things right about this movie; I don’t know where to start.


My all time favorite scene is when Daniel Cleaver and Mark Darcy chase each other around the fountain in the second movie. Best. Scene. Ever.


I’m referring to the BBC version with Colin Firth. I’ve watched it quite a few times, mostly because of Colin Firth. The Hollywood version pales comparison.


Hello, great story and who could go wrong with Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss. These movies definitely didn’t disappoint.


This is my all-time favorite Disney princess movie. The themes are perfect for girls (yes, we don’t need guys to save the day), and a huge improvement over the earlier princess movies. And I love the soundtrack. “Let It Go” is my new theme song. 


I love Emma Stone’s wit in this and how everything snowballs because a rumor. The romance is great, too. 


Why can’t I dance like that? My attempts at ballroom dancing resemble those of Jennifer Grey at the beginning of the movie. And who can forget the hot sex scene? 


What isn’t there to love about this movie? The costumes and the historical details are amazing, and the story is heartbreaking. And let’s not forget Leonardo DiCaprio. 


I saw this movie when I was a kid and living in England. My family moved a year later to Houston, and I was surprised Houston was nothing like the movie. No one mentioned that the movie took place in the 50’s. 


This is a classic that I still love. Best line ever: “As you wish.”



Kristine Wyllys, who usually answers to, “Hey, You! With the Hair!” was born in the north and now resides in the northern version of the Carolinas. She lives in a farmhouse older than she is, with a bunch of property that makes her spontaneously break out in Dixie Chicks songs every time she looks out the back door. She's got babies, books, a boy that she fell in love with at 15, and a dog that might be a lesbian. She spends her spare time naming chickens after Harry Potter characters, breaking smart phones, and blogging.


Stina Lindenblatt lives in Western Canada, where she loves to dream up New Adult and Young Adult stories, especially those with romance. She loves to travel, and has lived in England, the US, Canada, and Finland. She has a Master’s of Science degree in exercise physiology and has worked with elite athletes. In her free time, Stina enjoys photography, especially the close-up variety. She is the author of TELL ME WHEN (01/20/14).


Danube Adele wrote her first romance at the age of seven when she penned the sweet story of her dogs falling in love and having puppies together. She’s been dreaming up romantic tales ever since. A lifetime resident of southern California, she spends time playing at the beach, camping in Joshua Tree National Park, and hiking Mammoth Mountain. Always a lover of adventure, she and her husband took their sons on a cross country road trip to Florida and back in an old VW Westfalia, that had no A/C, in the month of July, and still, it continues to be the best trip they ever took. Extensive travel and trying new things has kept the creative spark alive. Danube lives in Claremont with her biggest fans, her loving husband, amazing and wonderful identical twin sons, and a teddy bear of a Rottweiler.


New York Times Bestselling author Stephanie Tyler writes what she loves to read - romantic suspense novels starring military heroes and paranormal romance novels novels starring warrior heroes, all complete with happy endings. She also co-writes as Sydney Croft. She lives in New York with her husband, her kids and her crazy Weimaraner, Gus.
