Title: 'Til Death: Volume One
Series: 'Til Death #1
Author: Bella Jewel
Release Date: November 25, 2014
Synopsis
They say there's a fine line between love and hate.
There is.
I married a douchebag.
I didn't know it at the time.
He came in like a handsome stranger and blew me off my feet.
I fell madly in love, like the naive girl I am.
Then he left me high and dry.
Turns out, I was nothing more than a business plan for billionaire playboy, Marcus Tandem.
He needed to be married in order to obtain his grandfathers business, and I was the poor victim in his path.
I believed in what we had, until the truth reared its ugly head.
I never meant anything to Marcus. Not a damned thing.
With my world spinning on its axis, the girl I once was has long since died.
Instead he left me as this empty, emotionless shell.
I may have made a vow before God to love and cherish him ‘Til Death do we part, but it’s time for me to give back to Marcus, exactly what he gave me.
He has to pay.
And pay he will.
*This is part of a two book series and it will contain a HEA – Readers over 18+

Review by Nadia Chief Obsessive Pimpette
~*~ obsessed by books arc given in exchange for an honest review~*~
Oh no she freaking didn't...yes she did! The jaw dropping unexpected ending is an edge of your seat I'm now sat rocking in shock waiting for the next book revelation...Marcus does something that is selfless! Page by page we see him coldly take an innocent naive woman's trust and manipulate her until she is so deeply in love it's breaking her. He likes her sass and her fierce protective nature towards her mother who she works so hard to care for. He is drawn to her as she is beautiful and a contrast to all the other women he has had in his bed. We watch as she slowly is ripped apart by him and the distance he keeps between them.
The dual POV works so well and we gain a better insight into Marcus and the lengths he is willing to go to to save his family business. He is one of the bad men...trying not to be so bad. Katia journey has some major life changing events as she gets married to man who's like a robot unless he's f**king her and meets her father ...another very bad man and her three brothers...undecided how bad they are at this point! The plot is fast paced, with twists and turns you won't see coming.
My heart was in my mouth by the end and then it did just end....deviously clever Bella Jewel! An amazing five star read. You will find me staring at my kindle, rocking in a corner until I get book 2 ;)

Excerpt: Marz was playing with fire. He damn well knew he was. But that didn’t make him want to pull away. He just wanted more of the heat. Marz nuzzled the side of Emilie’s face with his nose, his lips. She turned her face toward him and offered her lips. He couldn’t refuse. Capturing her mouth on a tortured groan, Marz poured every ounce of his longing and confusion and desire into the kiss. They grasped at each other and Emilie turned in his arms. He pinned her against the railing and planted his hands in her hair. She opened to him and accepted his tongue, sucking him in until Marz’s blood ran hot and his hard-on ached. He ground himself against her and devoured every little moan and whimper and gasp she spilled. Trailing kisses from her mouth to her jaw to her ear, Marz dragged a hand down her body and grasped her breast in his palm. She cried out and her head dropped back, drawing his mouth to her neck, where he licked and sucked and nipped as he kneaded her soft flesh. “You are so damn sexy.” Her hand flew to his hair and grasped the back of his head. “Touch me,” she said. “Don’t stop touching me.” Marz pulled away long enough to do a three-sixty scan. The lighthouse cast a dark shadow over them, and the pier was otherwise empty. His heart raced and his pulse hammered. He dove back in, trailing kisses down her neck to her collarbone, which he traced with his tongue. Her nails scratched deliciously at his scalp and her grip urged him down. Through the thin material of her blouse and bra, he mouthed and flicked at her nipple. He shifted the deep vee of the neckline to reveal a lacy royal blue bra. He tongued her through the lace until she was panting and moaning and writhing against the railing. “Oh, my God,” she rasped as he shifted her shirt and moved to her other breast. This time, he tugged the lace down to bare the deep pink of her nipple. She tasted and smelled like something fruity and sweet, and it made Marz hunger for more. “Derek,” she gasped. “Yes, yes, yes.” Her palm cupped and squeezed the bulge of his erection through his jeans. His hips jerked into the touch, craving more of her, all of her. He groaned and it seemed to egg her on, because she pressed and rubbed her hand against his trapped cock until he was panting and imagining taking her down to the ground. “Jesus, Emilie, you’re driving me fucking crazy,” he said as he worked kisses back up her body to her mouth. “I know just what you mean,” she said. Her molten hot gaze met his. Eyes hooded, lips shiny and swollen, cheeks flushed, she was a freaking goddess standing under the moonlit sky. He felt the force of her beauty every bit as much in his chest as in his cock. “You sure about that, babe?” he asked as he took her mouth in a deep, wet kiss. “Because my imagination has me stripping you of those fuck-hot jeans.” “Yeah?” She rubbed his cock in a long stroke with the heel of her hand. “Mine has us getting a room at the hotel back there. So I’m sure,” she said with a smile. Marz’s heart hammered against his breastbone and his cock jerked, clearly liking her idea, too. Except, if he took her up on it, he was going to end up buried inside her for as long as she’d have him. And so long as this clusterfuck of a situation defined their relationship, he couldn’t take things that far. Could he?
About HARD TO COME BY:
Caught between desire and loyalty...
Derek DiMarzio would do anything for the members of his disgraced Special Forces team--sacrifice his body, help a former teammate with a covert operation to restore their honor, and even go behind enemy lines. He just never expected to want the beautiful woman he found there.
When a sexy stranger asks questions about her brother, Emilie Garza is torn between loyalty to the brother she once idolized and fear of the war-changed man he's become. Derek's easy smile and quiet strength tempt Emilie to open up, igniting the desire between them and leading Derek to crave a woman he shouldn't trust.
As the team's investigation reveals how powerful their enemies are, Derek and Emilie must prove where their loyalties lie before hearts are broken and lives are lost. Because love is too hard to come by to let slip away...

K.C. Stewart - Scorch Cover Reveal
Scorch by K.C. Stewart
Urban Fantasy
Date Published: January 5, 2015
Hailey Holloway has a serious knack with running from her problems. At the first sign of trouble she can be found lacing up her Nikes and hitting the road. Dacea has been patient with her, but a man can only handle so much. He told her before that he would not chase after her again and is he nothing, if not a man of his word. Katherine is more than happy to pick at the wound that festers between them. If she picks enough, she just might make one or both of them bleed.
War is on the horizon. Together, they need to convince the leaders of Blue and Silver to join their crusade against the Council, but can they put their differences aside and stop fighting long enough to help those in the line of fire?
EXCERPT
“Hope. That is your answer?”
He tilted his head slightly at her tone. “It is.”
“Why should I hope for something that is doomed?” she asked plainly. “What would going back solve? We’d be happy for what? Five minutes before some new drama puts us at odds. I’m tired of fighting all the time. Loving Dak is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. It’s like loving a frickin’ mountain. He’s stubborn and unyielding to the point that I just want to beat my fists against him but that would do nothing but make me bleed. I can’t take being built up again just to have him tell me how I’m supposed to live, feel or love.”
She gave a short humorless laugh and shook her head. “Hope is one of the worst promises I could give myself. Because if I allow myself to hope for him to come around, and it doesn’t happen…I will be broken. Dak is hard headed, inflexible and has arrogance coming out his ass. He is my Mate, and God help me, but I love him for all his faults, even if he can’t love me for mine.” While Silas listened he reached over and brushed his thumbs over each of her cheeks clearing away the tears. She batted his hands away and with a clear voice she continued, “If I walk away now, I can keep what little is left of me together. I can hold on to the cracked pieces that haven’t completely shattered and go on living. It might not be the best life, but it will be under my own terms.”
He should have been happy at her declaration. Silas could have his sister without Dacea’s interference. They could leave tonight and travel, go wherever she wanted for as long as she wanted. They could connect. But he could either have the Hailey that was full of pop culture trivia and was always good for a smile with her infectious laugh. Or he could have the reserved.
Hailey who watches the clouds pass by from the window of her room, never granting more than a brief comment to the mundane. He could have one or the other, but she couldn’t be both.
Silas may not have spent much time with her yet, but he knew who his sister was.
“Hailey,” he put his hands on her shoulders and tilted his head to the side trying to catch her gaze. “There is always reason to hope.”

Tragic Love (Sulfur Heights #2)
“From the moment I locked eyes with hers, we've had this undeniable connection that was and will always be wicked. A love that would literally kill me if it didn't survive, but lately, could kill me if it did.” ~Drake Evans.
For Drake and Presley, life has handed them more challenges than any one person should ever face in a lifetime. Together, they've survived Presley’s captivity from her deranged uncle, but now they must learn how to live with the events that surrounded her time spent with him, while keeping the details of her rescue a secret.
For Presley Quinn, living the last two years has been practically unbearable, constantly drowning in nightmares put there by a man responsible for the violent images continually playing in her mind. She keeps moving forward, but is barely clinging onto the edge when she’s faced with another obstacle from her past that is so unavoidable, so tragic, it threatens to break her apart—herself.

However, when an unexpected event turns Presley against everyone she’s ever loved, Drake is faced with trying to save the only woman he’s ever loved or severing the only lifeline she’s ever had—himself.

Blind Love (Sulfur Heights #3)
"She is magnetic to me. Every emotion she feels pulls me that much closer to her charm and energy. For reasons unbeknownst to me, I want her to know what she means to me." Jake Evans
For Jake Evans, life was as it should be. No responsibilities. He was the master at embracing his reckless lifestyle whenever it presented itself. Surviving on his ability to expertly hustle, fight and womanize, Jake could do it all; lived it all.
Raised in a rundown city, filled with crime and drugs, he had survived the death of an abusive mother and a life with an absent father while only having his brothers to depend on. His lifestyle became fast and Jake had lived it the only way he knew how, until the day he met Delilah.
Delilah St. James was the epitome of flawless. Brought up in an affluent southern household, Delilah's life had been planned from the moment she was born. She was raised to be the perfect socialite and daughter, and groomed to be the ideal wife. When a school internship moved her to Sulfur Heights for the summer, Delilah collided with the bitter reality of life outside her comfortable gated community when Jake Evans upset her perfect world.
Over the next two years, Jake and Delilah became best friends, embracing a friendship neither one was prepared to have, although they soon found it to be a relationship that neither one of them were willing to sacrifice.
A tragic turn of events brings Jake and Delilah together once again. Only this time, the feelings are different. Lines within their friendship are blurred. Everything they vowed never to do, becomes the very thing they cannot deny. Will Jake and Delilah's relationship withstand the changes surrounding them? Or will the emotions sever the two year friendship they'd fought so hard to keep?

Surviving Love (Sulfur Heights #4)
by M.S. Brannon (Goodreads Author)
“She is my heart and the other half of my life, and now, that life no longer exists." ~Drake Evans, Surviving Love
For Drake Evans, life was once happy. He was living the kind of existence that any man would envy. By his side was the woman he loved and a daughter he cherished. Life was truly perfect, until the day demons from the past came crashing into their perfect world, destroying everything he had been so sure would last forever.
Today, Drake’s life is shrouded in misery. Every day he faces the unyielding pain of losing the love of his life at the hands of a drug dealing murderer. On top of it all, he has to live with the anguishing betrayal caused by the devastating role his brother played in Presley’s death. Gone are the days of carefree happiness and impending futures. They've all been replaced with the shallow emptiness hollowing out his heart and the undeniable rage pumping through his veins. Drake is only moving through the motions of life, raising his daughter and earning a living, in the only way he can tolerate—alone.
Since the day she was banished from her family, Zoe Ledoux lives her life as a free spirit. For the past four years, Zoe’s been moving through life day by day, place by place.

Then a turn of fate sends her to Sulfur Heights where she lands a job working as a bartender.
In a chance meeting, an instant connection forms, bringing together the wounded souls of Drake and Zoe. It is together that they begin to cope; to mend the brokenness of their pasts and feel what it is like to truly live again. However, will their newly formed friendship be enough to pull Drake and Zoe from their dark pasts? Can Drake overcome the fear of losing someone he loves and eradicate his anger just enough to let someone in? Will he learn that Surviving Love with Zoe is what he ultimately needs in order to be happy?

Redeemed Love (Sulfur Heights #5)
“Who am I? For all intents and purposes, I am the nice guy; the loyal brother and decent citizen. I am quiet and non-confrontational. I am the brother nobody worries about and can always depend upon. To my family, I am the good one. However, that’s only what they see on the outside.” ~ Jeremy Evans
Outwardly, Jeremy Evans is a typical guy, the calmest of the Evans brothers. He’s obsessed with cars, enjoys the company of beautiful women, and is devoted to his family.

The pure hatred for Sulfur Heights consumes him and escape is all he thinks about.
Three years later, he is secretly engrossed by the drug-infested underworld. Jeremy’s double life leads him on dark and sinister paths of drugs, violence and rage.
The Evans family is destroyed after Presley’s murder and consequently Jeremy’s arrest. He’s sent to prison where he’s forced to survive with the mistakes he’s made on his conscience. However, only one thought lingers. It consumes the years he spends locked in a cell. Retribution.
Cami Ryker used to have a picture perfect life. She was loved by her family and happy with her life until her brother’s sudden death tore her family apart. Cami is forced to care for her ailing mother and assume the responsibilities of a normal adult. However, when the bills are paid and her mother is tucked away for the night, Cami likes to cloud her mind in order to escape her daily struggles.

Will Jeremy finally find the solace within to gain the forgiveness from his family that he desperately craves? And is it possible for Jeremy to save those he loves and exonerate himself in the process?

Review by ToniAnn New Yorker Pimpette
Sulfur heights series. I give the series 4.5 stars.
Let's start with Darcie, she had an awful childhood. I actually felt sick reading the beginning of the first book. Such a young age to go through the things she went through and the stepfather she had. Just terrible. In swoops Reggie literally her knight he is the protector in his family and now Darcie. The chemistry between them and the love they share is amazing. This is book 1 I highly recommend reading this. Now book 2 is drake and presley story. An emotional roller coaster is what it is. This book was my favorite.its hard to write reviews for such amazing books without giving so much away. I just want to keep writing to tell you all everything. With book 2 your heart will be ripped out. Drake is Presley's safe place. In his arms. You feel like your there watching on the sidelines. Now onto book 3 this is jakes and Delilahs story who become best friends through a mutual friend. They are 2 totally different people. She comes from a wealthy family and jake is from suffer heights. You will know what I'm talking about when you read the first 2 books but they can't help the way they feel about each other. This series is addicting and you will certainly have a huge book hangover. So read and enjoy, get your tissues because you will need them for all 3 books. Not in a bad way but because like I said earlier you feel it like your there. Enjoy!

Review by Wendy Obsessive Pimpette
I was given this book for an honest review. This book is hot, who knew that m/f/m could be this hot. We have two, that's right two hot as sin alpha males who like sharing their women. Emerson and Jonathan are best friends who look at each other as brothers, they've shared and loved the same woman before and it just about broke them ,would they ever be able to do it again. Kimberly a sweet daycare owner who on her way home gets a text of bad news from her sister causing her to wreck . Kimberly seeks legal help from Emerson and Jonathan but can't afford them ,so she makes them an offer they can't refuse, her body. Can a relationship work as a threesome. I loved the love these three had for each other, don't get me wrong Emerson and Jonathan are sexy but I kept finding my self pulling for one more than the other, but I didn't want to see the other hurt. I felt apart of this book. loved it.
Excerpt
“Emerson, you really should learn to let loose. It isn’t healthy for someone to be so serious all the time.” Kimberly says, reaching up and running her hands through his hair. It’s different to spend a night without both of the men.
“You think I am not fun, Kimberly?”
“Did I say that?” She retorts and pulls his shirt from his body.
“Along those lines, yes. I will prove you wrong. I have a surprise for you tomorrow.” He tells her as he lays her down, only to be rolled over, with her straddling his waist.
“A surprise huh?” She smiles as he rolls over on top of her, his naked chest pressed against her lace covered one.
“Mmhmm, but for now it’s time for me to fuck you.”
She lets out a breathy moan as he picks her up placing her in the middle of the bed. He pulls away slightly, reaching into his carry-on bag. He shifts all of his weight on his forearms as he lays over her.
“Do you trust me, Kimberly?”
“Yes.” She answers without hesitation, seeing the look in his eyes has her trembling.
“Good. I’m going to blindfold you.”
“Why?” She asks but he slides a finger over her lip.
“If you trusted me it wouldn’t matter.” He says with a smug grin.
She nods her head as he slides the black silk tie over her eyes, tying it in a knot behind her head. After he has the blindfold set how he wants it, he slowly trails his hand from her jaw, to her neck, over the swell of her breasts. His hand continues on in a teasing descent down her body, leaving a trail of fire in its wake. He slowly pulls her shirt over her head, followed by the tight jeans she taunted him with all night. She whimpers, feeling the heat of his body move away from her.
“Emerson?” She calls out hearing his footsteps retreating. What the hell? She reaches up to remove the blindfold but halts when she hears his footsteps getting closer. “Emerson?”
The mattress indents while he kneels at the end of the bed, looking at the woman in front of him—the cream-lace covering her beautiful body. He grabs her foot, pulling her flush to the mattress, chuckling when she lets out an “hmph.” He takes a sip of the cold water before sliding a piece of the ice into his mouth. He kisses up her leg, making sure not to let the ice touch her just yet. He slides his palms over her knees to her thighs, before reaching the apex of her thighs. He slides his nose over her sex, inhaling the smell of her arousal.
“You are beautiful, Kimberly.” He reaches up, grabbing the band of her lace thong before ripping the material in half, exposing her beautiful pussy to him. “I’ll buy you more.” He huskily adds, sliding his cold tongue over the lips of her pussy.
“Oh!” She lets out as his tongue slides between her lips to taste the sweetness between them. Emerson reaches between her legs, lifting her hips, grabbing the cheeks of her ass—angling her hips to grant him better access to her pussy. He slides his tongue into her channel, tasting the decadence flowing from her. He lets out a groan of approval as his tongue laps at the juices flowing freely from her. He looks up at the goddess laying in his bed, sliding his tongue out of her, gliding it to the bud between her lips. He gently nibbles on her clit, smiling when he gets a squeal from her. He slides his right hand out from under her ass while slowly sliding it down the back of her leg to the apex of her thigh. He teases her for a second, running his hand between her thigh and pussy before sliding two fingers into her. He curls the two fingers while he flicks his tongue over her clit at a fast pace. He is a man on a mission, he wants to see her come undone just for him. He pushes a breath out of his lips onto her clit and within seconds she is withering underneath him. He knows she’s close, so he curls his fingers one more time and her hands tighten around the sheets. “Emerson!” She cries out as his mouth is flooded with the sweetness, the essence that is Kimberly. He continues to lap at her sweet nectar while she comes down from the high he just gave to her. He slowly flips her over onto her stomach before lifting her hips.
“Are you ready, Kimberly?”
She nods, still speechless from the orgasm he just gave to her. He grabs her hips and slams his hard cock deep into her pussy. He lets out a staggered breath, feeling the tightness of her envelope him. “So fucking good.” He leans down, kissing her back as he slams into her over and over. She reaches forward, using the headboard of the bed to keep her from losing her placing as he slams into her. He continues to slam into her as they both work their way up to another release. As Emerson continues to fuck her ruthlessly, she has no choice but to hold on for the ride. She reaches between her legs to rub her engorged bud. Just as she feels herself rising to release, she feels Emerson start to throb inside her tight channel. She knows he’s about to come so she lets herself go. She rubs her clit faster as her sex tightens and releases around his throbbing cock. “Emerson!” She cries, exploding around him.
“Fuck!” He howls, spurting his release into her. He rests his head on her back while he comes down from the heaven he just witnessed. He reaches up, pulling the scarf away from her head as she lays completely spent underneath him. He leans forward kissing her temple before rolling off of her, lying down beside her. “You are beautiful, Kimberly.”
