Erin Watt <— (awesome “hit” authors Elle Kennedy & Jen Frederick of the awesome “The Royals” series) have a new book coming out and here is the cover reveal! It’s called “When It’s Real” and he’s a famous pop-star trying to “tone down” his bad boy image, and she’s a waitress, and what he considers “the very definition of ordinary” enough for the job.

Posing as his girlfriend, Vaughn will overhaul Oakley’s image from troublemaker to serious artist. In return for enough money to put her brothers through college, she can endure outlandish Hollywood parties and carefully orchestrated Twitter exchanges. She’ll fool the paparazzi and the groupies. She might even start fooling herself a little…

Lauren Blakely announces a new release to go with her recent big hit “The Sexy One” (but this new one CAN be read as a standalone and is called The Only One: A One Love Novella). It’s a “series crossover ’cause, she says:

“Do you remember Simon’s client Gabriel? Gabriel has it bad for one alluring and sexy woman from his past! (And you might have met that woman in WELL HUNG – Penny! The dog shelter manager!)

…rest assured, THE ONLY ONE can be read as a standalone!”

Rachel Van Dyken is being a tease!!! She just posted a sort of… puzzle-piece of a teaser to her upcoming “Eagle Elite” (mafia romance!) release saying:

“The only preview you’ll get of the next Eagle Elite book until I announce the release date!!! Eek!! Can’t wait for Dantes story”

Skye Warren has just put up her upcoming release (The Pawn) for preorder on Amazon! It’s a forbidden auction (she’s trying to raise money to support her family) and the man that ruined her life, ruined her father and left them penniless is back to bid on her.

Melanie Harlow posted her cover reveal and blurb AND a $50 gift card giveaway for her upcoming release, “After We Fall”. The blurb sounds like fun (he’s a cowboy and completely uninterested in her… she’s a city girl, and she thinks he’s rude). The cover is gorgeous! I think you can still enter to win, but either way, take a look at what’s coming from this popular contemporary romance author.

Karen Marie Moning is having a giveaway and the winner will be decided tomorrow (Monday), so you still have time to enter! Lots of Barrons (FEVER series!!) fun stuff to choose from. 😉

“FRIDAY FEVER GIVEAWAY! Pick any item on the sofa!

There are three totes (printed on both sides), a gorgeous, heavy pewter Christmas ornament, mugs, playing cards, a pillow (printed on both sides), a nightlight and two shirts…”
