About Pricked
He said it would only hurt a little … 

On her sixteenth birthday, Sleeping Beauty pricked her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel. On my twenty-second, I pricked mine on the needle of a tattoo machine wielded by a beautifully complicated man who would go on to become my ruin.

Madden Ransom was everything I was never allowed to be: unfeeling, opinionated, rebellious … free. 

He was also everything I was never allowed to be with.

And while Sleeping Beauty fell into a peaceful slumber as she awaited true love’s kiss, I fell into something else entirely—my heart in the hands of a man who’d never given nor received anything remotely like love.

It turns out when Madden told me it would only hurt a little … he didn’t mean the tattoo.

Review: By a Thread by Lucy Score

Image
Note: An advanced reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Enticing Journey Book Promotions. By a Thread is the latest romantic comedy standalone from Lucy Score. It's taken on the enemies-to-lovers trope and put it in an office setting, putting a feisty woman who doesn't back down from anyone and a man battling with the far-reaching shadow of the father he refuses to be anything like. Fair warning, though: This is a REALLY long book, far longer than I honestly thought it needed to be, but it was still an entertaining read overall, even if it isn't my favorite from the author. After a scandal involving his father is kept under wraps, forty-four-year-old Dominic Russo is forced to step in and help his mother bring the magazine she founded back to a level of respectability and profitability. Because of the new work environment he finds himself in, he's been forced to rein in his temper. Unfortunately, he ends up taking it out on a server while he's

Release Blitz: By a Thread by Lucy Score

By a Thread by Lucy Score Release Date: April 23, 2020 About By a Thread Dominic was staring at me like he couldn’t decide whether to chop me into pieces or pull my hair and French kiss me.  Dominic I got her fired. Okay, so I’d had a bad day and took it out on a bystander in a pizza shop. But there’s nothing innocent about Ally Morales. She proves that the first day at her new job… in my office… after being hired by my mother. So maybe her colorful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine’s offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe my after-hours fantasies are haunted by those brown eyes and that sharp tongue. But that doesn’t mean that I’m going to be the next Russo man to take advantage of his position. I might be a second-generation son of a… fill in the blank, but I am not my father. She’s working herself to death at half a doze

Review: Underneath the Sycamore Tree by B. Celeste

Image
Note: An advanced reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Give Me Books Promotions. For once, I wish I was seeing Mama's teary golden eyes instead of Kaiden Monroe. I wish I was listening to Lo's playful laughter instead of Kaiden's husky words. Wishes don't come true through, because this isn't some fairytale.   It's reality.   And reality is a mean bitch. B. Celeste's first two novels made me take notice, but it looks like the adage of the third time being the charm stands true because her latest book has left me at a loss for words, choosing instead to bask in how wondrous this heartrending read was. Underneath the Sycamore Tree is the story of an eighteen-year-old named Emery Matterson. Where girls her age usually begin to contemplate their lives beyond high school and head into adulthood with dreams and hopes just waiting to come true, Emery is facing her own reality. As children, Emery's twin sister, Logan, was diagnosed wi
