RELEASE BLITZ & 4 STAR REVIEW: Love...It's Complicated by Jeannine Colette



๐Ÿ’™NEW RELEASE๐Ÿ’™

LOVE…IT’S COMPLICATED by Jeannine Colette is NOW AVAILABLE!!


What to expect:
๐Ÿ’Wedding Designer Heroine
๐Ÿš“Handsome Officer Hero
๐Ÿ’žLife After Divorce Romance
๐ŸกSmall Town Romance
๐Ÿ˜‚Witty Banter and Good Pacing
๐Ÿ”ฅSteamy Love Scenes
๐ŸŒ€Angsty Plot Twist




Anyone who says love isn’t complicated is a dirty liar. Ask me how I know…

I used to be a normal wife and mother with a perfectly happy life. Now I’m a divorced single mom who spent a night in jail after breaking into the hair salon my ex’s mistress owns.

What can I say? Not my proudest moment.

The only bright spot in that fiasco was the police officer who offered me a sexy, broad shoulder to cry on. William Bronson was a knight in shining armor. A romance novel hero in the flesh.

Then I showed up for work the next day and realized I’d be in charge of planning his fairy tale wedding…to someone else.

And that was just the start of my troubles—romantically and legally (don’t ask).

Now, I need to learn how to navigate my new reality and start building my own happily ever after. I have no idea if it will all end in love…or heartache. All I know for sure is that it’ll be complicated.








My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review. 

Melissa is a bit of a hot mess. She has shared custody of her kids and is part owner of a successful business, but her personal life is not great. Melissa is recently divorced and trying to get her life back on track. Her ex has moved on and it's time for her to move on as well. She meets William in one of the more interesting meet cutes I've read in a while. I knew from the start that I would enjoy this book and I was not disappointed. 

For me, this book was all about William. At the beginning of the book his personal life is a bit of a mess too, but from the moment he meets Melissa, it's obvious there is an an attraction and connection. William was sweet, considerate, sexy and a VERY patient man. Being in a relationship with Melissa wasn't easy, but he was willing to do what he needed to do to make it work.

RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW: Heartbroken Hero by Lauren Runow & Jeannine Colette

 



I need to get out of town … fast.

Scandal, betrayal, and a tarnished name have me fleeing my Manhattan penthouse with a lone suitcase and a manila envelope holding the hardest decision I'll ever have to make.

With no destination in mind, I land in a quaint beach town in South Carolina. I'm about to get lunch when my Christian Louboutin heel gets stuck in the decking. I'm desperate to rescue it when my hero appears.

A very moody, very heartbroken hero named Grant Dawson.

He's sensitive, protective, and absolutely gorgeous. I have to shield myself from the sun but mostly to avoid his glare. Grant doesn't take well to women from the big city … especially ones who wear expensive shoes.

Despite Grant's unwelcoming attitude, I decide to stay in town and rent a room from an elderly woman who sets me up with a job as a waitress. Imagine my surprise when I find Grant is my new boss, and he’s annoyed to be working with me.

Not one to bow down from a challenge, I work alongside Grant even if it kills me to do so. As I get to know him, I start to like the single father with a painful past. The more I care, the easier I find I could fall in love with him.

Grant doesn't trust women in heels for a reason. When I get the courage to open the manila envelope, I might once again prove him right when I walk out the door for good.

My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review. 

Three cheers for a grumpy hero! Three more cheers for a grumpy hero with an adorable child who he loves more than anything! This has become one of my favorite tropes. Give me more please. 

Sophie is looking to leave her life behind, even if it's just for a little while. When her family and career falls apart, she needs a change. South Carolina wasn't the plan, but when she stops for lunch, things just fall into place. And before she knows it, she has a place to stay and a job. She has a rough go of it at first and having Grumpy Grant as a boss wasn't ideal, but Sophie eventually finds her way. 

Grant and Sophie were an excellent couple. I really enjoyed when they didn't get along. They had great banter and the back and forth just added to the tension between them. And when they finally give in to their attraction to each other, it's so good!

This book is sweet and quite heartwarming, with a little bit of sexy thrown in. And it was a quick read with little drama. There are a few excellent side characters who I really enjoyed as well.

RELEASE BLITZ: Rebel Roommate by Jeannine Colette & Lauren Runow

 


★NOW AVAILABLE★

๐‘๐ž๐›๐ž๐ฅ ๐‘๐จ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐š๐ญ๐ž is LIVE! If you love brothers-best-friend romances this is definitely the one for you!




“Once again Colette and Runow created a masterpiece. Their characters were incredibly relatable, the plot was engaging, and the writing was on point. I highly recommend Rebel Roommate. You don't want to miss this! ” - Goodreads Reviewer




Growing up, I had one rule: stay away from my brother’s best friend.


It was easy to follow. I spent my years avoiding the boys on the baseball team, studying hard, and saving every dime I could. When I was accepted to transfer into UC Berkeley, I need a place to live, and my brother had a free room off-campus.


Win-win, right? Except, that best friend I was determined to stay away from is now my new roommate.


My very naughty, very rebellious roommate, Wesley Knight.


The boy who was once the bane of my existence with his constant teasing is now a drop-dead gorgeous athlete. He’s the life of the party, but I can’t have fun. According to Wes, no guys are allowed to talk to me. 


Well, two can play at this game. If I can’t date, then neither can he.


It starts off as innocent fun. Some half-naked yoga, or a little flirting; until an interrupted moment of self-gratification turns things dangerous … for my body and my heart.


Living with my brother and his best friend has me breaking all the rules. I just have to decide if the consequences are worth the reward.

RELEASE BLITZ & 4 1/2 STAR REVIEW: Body of Trust by Jeannine Colette

We're so excited to celebrate the surprise release of Body of Trust by Jeannine Colette! One-click yours today!



What to expect:
  • Modern Mafia/Romantic Suspense storyline
  • New York City setting
  • Heart pounding action scenes
  • A love story that will leave you breathless

Get ready for the thrill of a lifetime in this SEXY, HOT, and ADDICTIVE Romantic Suspense. This story has a SWOON-WORTHY HERO with bravery, heart, and an intensity that will give you ALL. THE. FEELS!

BLURB:

In the dark, winding hills overlooking the New York Harbor lay the city's most exclusive club. A mansion that offered a glimpse back to the days when the mob had ruled New York.

I took my seat at the bar and flirted with the man behind it-the one who made me weak in the knees yet kept his personal life a veiled secret.

It started off like any other, except, that night, Jesse Grant and I shared a moment.

And then all hell broke loose.

As gunfire rained down, I fell to the floor in fear, only to be shielded by a man who was risking his own life to save mine.

Jesse led me away from danger that night. While traipsing through the underground tunnels of the city, I learned my family wasn't who I'd thought they were and no one could be trusted … including Jesse.

He devoured my body and stole my heart. Then, he left in the shadows of the night, leaving me to wonder if he was really who he had said he was.

Discovering dark secrets, intense attraction, and a plot where everyone's life was on the line … my once-boring life morphed into that of a crime drama.

And there was only one man I was willing to give my trust to. I just prayed that he was worth the risk.




★☆★Read FREE w/Kindle Unlimited★☆★




My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.

On the surface, Amelia and Jesse are a couple that could never work. She is the daughter of a successful businessman and Jesse is a bartender at the club her family frequently dines at. He always seems to be working when she's there, but Amelia doesn't mind. He's handsome and pays attention to her. They make small talk and maybe even flirt a little. And it's all very innocent until it isn't.

After that night Amelia finds herself thrust into situations that she never thought she'd be in. And Jesse is there pretty much the whole way. He's not only her support system, but it turns out he is one of the few people she can actually trust.

I really enjoyed this book! Throughout the whole thing, there were these moments where I felt like I could easily be watching a movie. It was suspenseful, but it also had a wonderful romance story line. This genre is different from what the author usually writes and I hope she writes more! There's a secondary character in this book that I loved and I would LOVE to get her story!

COVER REVEAL: Naughty Neighbor by Jeannine Colette & Lauren Runow

Check out this amazing cover for ๐๐š๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฒ ๐๐ž๐ข๐ ๐ก๐›๐จ๐ซ: ๐…๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐š ๐‹๐ข๐›๐ซ๐š, a sexy new romance by Jeannine Colette and Lauren Runow! It's releasing on September 23, 2020! Pre-order your copy now!




As a romance novelist, I’m facing my worst nightmare—writer’s block.

No matter what I write, I hit delete, knowing it’s not worth publishing. The future of my career rests on the success of this new book.

So, here I am, looking at Tumblr, desperate for inspiration, when I hear a thumping. Annoyed by the music blaring through the walls, I barge into the hall and bang on my neighbor’s door.

My very hot, very naughty neighbor, Jake Morreau.

Jake is romantic, charming, and the bane of my existence. I need to work, yet he refuses to let me.

When he greets me in the hallway, ideas of a sinfully hot hero come to mind.

When he takes me out on the town, the words flow as soon as I come home.

The more time I spend with this entertaining and quick-witted man, the more I’m able to write.

My neighbor is my muse, and before I know it, I slowly become the heroine of my own story, but I don’t know how to end it.

As I write the epilogue, I’m afraid our romance won’t pan out as I’ve written.

Jake Morreau is my hero.

Then again, in my life, heroes don’t exist.

RELEASE DAY BLAST: Sexton Brothers Box Set by Jeannine Colette and Lauren Runow



The Sexton Brothers Box Set by Jeannine Colette and Lauren Runow is LIVE! There is bonus content, including a new epilogue and love letters!





Title: Sexton Brothers Box Set
Age Group: Adult
Genre: Contemporary Romance
January 14, 2020



Run away with the Racer.
Fall in love with the Suit.
Hide away with the Artist.

Feel your heart race with these sexy brothers, and the kick ass heroines they fall in-love with, all in one fabulous boxset!



AUSTIN


“Tell me a secret,” I ask.
“I’m falling for you.”

Austin Sexton is a bad-boy media mogul and heir to the Sexton Empire. On the outside, he’s a whiskey-slinging bachelor with the world on a string. Problem is, strings break easily.

Deep within lies a war hero who refuses accolades. He buries his pain with his vices, and against my better judgment, I’ve become one of them.

No matter how hard I try to push him away, his secrets draw me in. This man, who appears careless, has passion. If I were looking for someone in my life, I could see myself falling for a guy like him.

Good thing love is the last thing I’m looking for.



BRYCE


“Truth or dare?”
“I’ll take your dare.”
“Kiss me.”

I don’t believe in Prince Charming, but when I met a handsome stranger on a rooftop his words intrigued me and his dares left nothing but temptation.

Then I learned the truth.

His name is Bryce Sexton. Media mogul, workaholic and a heart of stone. He’s broody AF and yet every woman in San Francisco wants him.

So why won’t he leave me alone?

Wherever I go, he’s there, trying to force his way into my world. What he doesn’t know is I already have a man in my life. A tiny redhead who loves Legos and Superheroes.

With every push, Bryce pulls me in further. Our pasts are laced with betrayal. Our futures are unpredictable. Our chemistry is explosive.

With each dare I uncover a truth, but he's exactly what I don’t need right now.

So why did I have to go and kiss him?


TANNER


We’re two strangers on a train, knowing whatever we decide in the next moment might dictate our fate for the rest of our lives.

“A kiss was all I needed.”
“Looks like you got what you wished for.”
“Yes. About that…”

My plan: find a finely dressed businessman, have a one-night stand, and forget about my failed relationship.

Like a bad joke, my ex walks into the bar. That’s when a gorgeous man wearing street clothes, messy hair, and the sexiest smile I’ve ever seen lays a kiss on me. It’s meant to rile up my ex but leaves me breathless and wanting more instead.

Then he’s gone.

So, I do what any rational person would. I chase after him onto the subway and embark on a wild night in New York City with a complete stranger.

No matter how much I fight it, this mysterious man painted his soul onto my skin. If it’s not meant to be, why can’t I forget about him?

Wild Abandon
When you fall in-love it’s forever. But sometimes forever comes with a price.

I never meant to meet Nathaniel Teller. It was by accident, on a Tuesday, that I walked into his bar. He was solemn, intense and hiding a secret behind those stoic green eyes.

I never intended to fall in-love with him. We were supposed to be just friends. But I fell for him hard, deep. There’s no turning back.

I never thought his past would be so dark. And if I thought I had any chance of being in his future, I was wrong. Because his past is his future.

And I need to walk away.
