#SeriesBlitz for The Middleton Trilogy by Lisa Lang Blakeney @GiveMeBooksPR





OBSESSION

I can have anything I desire…but all I want is her.

Hunter Middleton
My name strikes fear when most men hear it, especially in the underbelly of the city.
Self-made billionaire.
Alpha Asshole.
Ruthless Negotiator.
Owner of a notorious Los Angeles Nightclub where life and death deals are made, and street justice is served.

Driven by a family tragedy that has haunted me all my life, I’ve never had any interest in a serious romance until the fateful night I clashed with a new spunky server with the face of an angel.
She has no clue who I am.
Her employer.
And I have no idea who she’s going to be.
My addiction.

Despite all our differences and the danger closing in on us, I’m ready to claim her after one interaction. There’s something about her I cannot resist, and we begin a rollercoaster ride of passion and danger, fueling my…obsession.

OBSESSION is a steamy, possessive, age-gap, suspenseful romance from USA Today bestselling author Lisa Lang Blakeney.

WARNING: Contains a ruthless billionaire with dirty intentions.

BLURB

Kidnapped by a savage enemy

As heir to the throne in a royal mafia family, it's my job to get the information needed to bring my father home. And that means kidnapping a rival's spoiled mafia princess daughter.

At the time, I don't know the man is in negotiations to marry her off to a brutal arms dealer, but when I discover how difficult of a captive she is, it kind of makes sense. Soon, she foolishly starts to see me as the lesser of evils, but while she seems willing to be my captive, she's mistaken to believe I'm doing her any favors.

I can't allow anything to distract me. Especially not some naïve woman who doesn’t realize we've just set off a mob war. Now the only way to stop what I started and be reunited with my father is to let her go.

Problem is, I've fallen for my hostage, and while I have the guts, power, and resources to keep her as a willing prisoner, if I make the wrong choice, it could cost my family’s empire everything.

#BookReview: Princess of Souls (Hundred Kingdoms #2) by @alexandrachristowrites



From the author of To Kill a Kingdom comes Princess of Souls, a Rapunzel-inspired YA fantasy romance about a teen witch groomed to steal souls for an immortal king and the reckless, rebellious boy to whom her fate is tied.

For sixteen years, Selestra Somniatis has been trapped in a castle on the Floating Mountain, preparing to take her mother’s place as King Seryth’s right hand. Tied by blood to steal souls for the immortal King of the Six Isles, the Somniatis Witch foretells the deaths of participants in the Festival of Predictions. To outrun your fate is to save your soul and steal the King’s immortality. But if you die, your soul is forfeit. And though thousands have tried, nobody has ever beaten death.

As a soldier in King Seryth’s army, Nox Laederic is an unlikely candidate for the Festival, but he has no plans to die at the hands of the King or his witches. His plan is more akin to violent revenge: steal the King’s immortality and kill the entirety of his court, starting with Selestra herself.

But when Selestra touches Nox in her very first prediction, she sees her own death alongside his--their fates are unmistakably intertwined, and Selestra is no longer safe in the only home she’s ever known. Nox and Selestra will have to enter a turbulent alliance in order to survive long enough to free the Six Isles from King Seryth’s clutches and escape the new fate that hunts them.



#BookReview: Scions (Starcrossed, #4) by @josephine_angelini



A prequel to the bestselling Starcrossed series.

New York City, 1993. It wasn’t Daphne’s choice to move into the heart of a struggle that has been secretly waging for thirty-three hundred years, but not much in her life has been up to her. Fate has brought Daphne, daughter of Zeus, and Heir to the House of Atreus to where the descendants of the Greek gods can shed blood over her once again. 

Men are fated to kill for her. 

But New York holds a surprise for Daphne and her cursed face—the same one that once launched a thousand ships. A series of murals painted all over town mysteriously pull at her in ways she can't understand. That’s because the artist is Ajax Delos, Son of Apollo, Scion of the House of Thebes, and Daphne’s mortal enemy.

She found the one worth dying for. 

With the Fates manipulating them both like pieces on a chessboard, Daphne and Ajax must find a way to break the cycle of destruction set in motion by their ancestors before the walls of Troy, or risk becoming yet another pair of star-crossed lovers doomed to repeat the same fatal mistakes.
