Upcoming Releases For Author Missy Johnson


ALWAYS YOU

This student/teacher romance was released in December

I was thrilled when I was offered a graduate teaching position at the prestigious Tennerson Girls Academy. At twenty-three, this would be my first ‘real’ teaching assignment. Working at the elite boarding school, home to the daughters of some of the wealthiest people in the world, was a great opportunity that I would’ve been stupid to pass up.

One week into my new job, and I suddenly had no idea why I chose high school…I was a seventeen year old boy once, I knew how teenage girls behaved. 

You can’t even imagine the hell of trying to teach thirty, hormonal driven seventeen year olds who have been cooped up, away from any male contact. 

I could handle the whispers every time I entered the room. I could even handle the obvious attempts at gaining my attention. What I couldn’t handle was her…

Rich bitches and way too many rules. Was it any wonder that I hated school? 

Add to that the lack of male contact, and I was going insane. Like literally. I wasn’t used to this. A year ago I was normal. I had a boyfriend, friends and a loving family. There is nothing normal about me anymore, and nobody here lets me forget that.

My name is Wrenn, and I’m only here because my aunt took me in after what happened, but my aunt also happens to be the headmistress of this academy…Can you see my problem? 

I’m hated for my lack of money, and I’m hated for who my Aunt is.

Then he arrived. Dalton Reed. My new history teacher.

Slowly, he helped me see that even in the worst situations, there is always hope.

PROVOKE

The first book in the Provoke Series is due to be released in April

Mace Jordan was not the type of guy I expected to sweep me off my feet. I knew of the crowd he ran with, and they were bad news. But beyond that tough, biker exterior was a sweetheart, and one that treated me like his princess.

I liked being the good girl with the bad boy, but I never expected this. What I saw on his computer…I thought I knew him. 

But I was wrong. So wrong…

If there was ever a bad time for me to fall for a chick it was now, but from the moment I saw Leeta, she had me. There was something special about her, and I had to have her. But I also had a job to do, and I couldn’t let her distract me from that. I couldn’t let her discover that side of me either. But she’s not stupid, and I know she’s getting close. God knows what she’ll do if she discovers the truth. 

Or what she thinks is the truth.

Synopsis:

Jamie: Male. 24. Drums.

Nate: Male. 25. Bass.

Zax is always the first to chat up the groupies. With a new girl every night, Zax is desperate to keep his sexuality a secret. If word got out, it could ruin everything he’s built for himself, and the friendships he’s made would crumble instantly.

The world they’ve created for themselves is filled with deceit, broken promises, and empty words. And when it all explodes in their faces, will the truth destroy everything they’ve come to know? Or will their loyalties to each other make them stronger than ever?

Join them as they drive, fight and play their way around the country, striking every chord they can along the way.

Chapter One excerpt:

“Ooh,” she muttered, arching her back. I slid my arm around the curve of her back, pulling her up off the bed and closer to me. “Kiss me,” she whispered, her fingers fumbling with the button of my jeans. I lifted her lips to mine, my movements rough and forceful, exactly how she wanted it as I kicked my now unbuttoned jeans off. She clawed at my back, her nails clutching at me so tightly she was drawing blood. 

This was the fucking life. Touring with the band, I was halfway through a four month stint in Sydney. Blondie here was some chick I’d picked up, and after a few wines I had an invite back to her place. 

No strings sex, how could things go wrong?

She reached inside my boxers, gripping my cock in her hands, her fist moving up and down furiously.

Fuck yeah.

“Oh shit,” she whispered, pushing me away, her eyes wide with fear.

“What?” I said, confused. Why did she suddenly look terrified?

“I just heard the door. I-I think my husbands home.”

What. The. Fuck.

“Husband?” I growled. I jumped up, gathering my things and hurled myself out of the open window. I shot a glance back to blondie, who was hissing her apologies as she slammed the window shut.

Fucking bitch was married? Fuck. 

I made my way down the fire escape, furious at myself. How did I not spot that one coming? As my bare feet hit the ground, I pulled my shirt over my head and slipped on my shoes. Walking to my car, I reached into my pocket for my keys.

Oh shit. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. 

They must’ve fallen out when I took them off. God, I could just imagine them sitting on her bedroom floor, peering out from under the bed. The last thing I wanted to do was all Nate, but at 2am, I was stranded in the middle of the fucking city with no cash for a taxi.

My Review

5 of 5 Boystown

Okay, so let me start this review out by saying I have typed this review 11 times and deleted it 11 times because after reading this story I was amazed, shocked, stunned, and everything in between! I mean I was literally brain fu&^%$! I mean, I have never read a story like this one. 

BOYSTOWN is written in "episodes," each ending in a cliffhanger. As you go through the episodes things start to heat up and you're like, holy eff what the hell is going on? 

So we have Jesse and Cole who are in college and they are graduating and looking for jobs. They have both found their dream jobs in Chicago and are looking forward to graduating and starting their new lives.

Then you have the happy couple Joyelle and Derek. They are the perfect couple as Derek travels for work and Joyelle is an ER nurse and loves her job. They have been married for years and Joyelle is ready for more. She wants to make her family complete. But there is one thing about one of these individuals that will rock this relationship to the core. Will they survive this or will they walk away from each other?

Emmett and Keith are the perfect couple. They are so in love and do everything together. So much so that Keith is planning on doing something special for Emmett. But just as Keith thinks he is going to get his HEA, someone has decided that he will not get his HEA yet, and they plan on doing something very very naughty. Will Keith and Emmett survive this new (or old) threat to their relationship? Will someone try and hurt them? I will say this I LOVE Emmett and if something happens to him I will be flying to Chicago a lot sooner.... hint hint Jake!

Max and Logan have been together for a long time and everything seems to be spiraling out of control. One of them has a drinking problem and the other is left trying to help him when he does not want help. So what do you do when the person you love does not want you anymore? Do you move on quietly or do you fight like hell for the person you love to keep them even though you know they don't want you?

See what I mean? So much going on with these characters and then we add to the mix some other characters like Jacqueline who is one of the character's mother who finds herself in a relationship with someone younger and when her son finds out who it is, all hell is going to break lose because that guy has a HUGE secret and when it comes out, I don't think anyone will be left standing.
Then we have Ben who is connected to two of the characters and is falling in love with one of them but when the secrets and lies come to the forefront, all hell is going to break lose. Whoop whoop! What drama we get from my man Ben. He is a chocolate God, sex on wheels but I would not want to be him when shit happens.......

Then we have Nick, Todd, and Justin who are related to some of the characters by blood and by relationships and boy oh boy when the drama unfolds and shit hits the fan and the police are called who will be left standing and who will be dead??

Oh and that police officer is actually detective Michael Martinez and boy does he have a story to tell. Lord, makes me need some ice cold water something fierce because I was feeling very feverish reading about Michael. lordy....... lordy..... lordy.... CALIENTE! 

So Boystown is a real place in Chicago and after reading this book, I told my husband I need to go there and visit because I have this image in my head that Jake put in it and I just have to go there and visit and get my book signed by Jake. I am so fan girling it is not funny. I mean I want to be in his brain so bad because that ending was like WTF? Really Jake? No you did not! Man oh man why is one of my favorite characters there? 

This is a MUST READ male/male and male/female book but most of all I felt like I was there right in front of the characters living their lives with them, going through all their ups and downs and all their pain and grief they had. Jake you are BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fiesty Girls Book Blog Presents Kayden: The Past (Love at Last 0.5) by Chelle Bliss Blog Tour Stop


Synopsis:

Kayden Michaels has a past filled with sex, addiction, and heartache. A past that he’s avoided sharing with the love of his life, Sophia, and held close to his core not risking rejection. 

Needing to get his addictions in check and gain control of his life for the sake of his family, Kayden is forced to confront his past and make amends for the path he’s walked.

Kayden must recount every carnal act and the betrayal from those he’s loved to identify the triggers that spur his addictions and overcome it all to be worthy of Sophia’s love – his sole reason to exist.



My Review

5 of 5 Kayden Michaels

Kayden is a force to be reckon with and no one could tame him no matter what they tried because Kayden was a man on a mission. His mission was to do what he wanted to do when he wanted to do it and with whom. He took man whore to another definition. I mean he slept and drank his way through numerous women that he did not even remember their names. Lord have mercy he was a hoot to read about because you get a sense there is something there underneath him but you really don't get to see it until he shares his story and holy hell what a story it is.

Kayden grew up in a dysfunctional house and this is where everything started to fall apart. Kayden has great friends and loves his mother but his father is something else. The man is a force to be reckon with and no matter what Kayden does it is never good enough for his father. There are things in his childhood that change Kayden and it is not for the better let me tell you. How a parent could be so cruel is beyond me but hey life happens and you deal with things as you go.

Kayden leanred early on that he would have to take care of himself. No one was going to be there for him and that is what he did. He lived his life fast and furious until he met Sophia and Suzy. Suzy is the sister he never had and well Sophia is the love of his life. He will do anything to keep her safe and sound and happy. He loves to put a smile on her face and he loves when she laughs it takes his breath away.

Chelle Bliss knows how to write a story about love, pain, disappointment, and redemption. This is a must read series for anyone who loves a bad boy alpha!


Interview With Kayden:

Today on Kaidans Seduction we have a very special guest. Today we have the pleasure of interviewing one of the sexiest sought after man Kayden Michaels from Untangle Me and his book Kayden: The Past. Lord I dam near died when I was told I could interview Kayden because he is a man of mystery but after reading his story we get a very descriptive recap of his crazy life and how he spiraled out of control only to take back control for the ones he loves.

Kayden thank you so much for stopping by today. You have a HUGE following and woman all over the world LOVE you and want to be with you even though they know you are off the market. How do you handle the wild women who come on to you? 

I have no problem being up front with a woman and letting them know I’m taken. I’d never do anything to jeopardize my relationship with Sophia. They can look, but ladies, no touching.

Reading your past really broke my heart because my father was just like yours was and he left and moved away and did not come back for 17 years and when he reappeared he acted like nothing happened like we saw each other yesterday. What would you say to your father today if you saw him?

 I don’t have any words for him. My mom’s second husband has been more of a dad to me than my biological father ever has been. My biological father can kiss my ass.

What are your true feelings about your father leaving and never having anything to do with you? 

See above. 

Addiction played a big part in your life why do you think you used the drugs and woman as an outlet instead of something else?

 It’s easy to fall into a pattern and drugs were readily available. I wish I had turned to something else, my life would’ve been a lot less complicated. I know that I made shitty decisions in my life because of my addictions. It wrecked me and I remind myself that every day.

How hard was it to quit wrestling? How did it affect you? You glossed over that but I am pretty sure there is more to the story than you gave so can you give us the real story behind it?

 It was one of the hardest damn things. It was my life when I was in high school and leaving the team stripped me of any opportunity to attend college. It helped catapult me into my addictions. I would’ve stayed clean and walked a different path if I had stayed on the team. It was a turning point in my life and I had to step up and help my mom pay the bills and take care of the house. My father crushed my dreams and ruined my future. I still watch wrestling today anytime I can find it on television and I follow my high school team each season. I’ll always be a fan.

Were you really upset about not going to college with the guys?

 I was, but I wouldn’t be where I am today if I had gone to college. I don’t think I would be with Sophia today. All things happen for a reason and she is where I’m meant to be. 

Did Scott ever find out about you and Mindy?

 He did because I told him. He didn’t give a shit. He didn’t love her and had many girls at the time. He shared her and to me that meant she didn’t mean very much to him.

Have you seen any of the gang since high school?

 We do see each other every once in a while and we keep in touch on Facebook. It’s a great way to stay in contact with old friends and meet new ones.

When you hit rock bottom and Sophia saved you what exactly was it that did it for you? What was the bottom that made you decide you needed a change in your life?

 I didn’t want to lose her. She was more important to me than any drink I’ve ever had in my life. I knew I had to make a permanent change when our child was born. I needed to make sure never to live that life again. I’ve been blessed and I’m not going to fuck it up now.

What was your first thought that popped into your mind when you saw Sophia for the first time?

 It’s very x-rated. Do you mean the first time I saw her in person or when I first saw her photo on Facebook? She was the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen. Sophia has no idea how sexy she is and I love that about her. She has this nerdy thing that I adore! Her eyes caught my attention and I can see the love in them.

What song would describe you and Sophia’s relationship?

 Damn, there are so many songs that come to mind. ‘Mine would be You’ by Blake Shelton or ‘If I Knew’ by Bruno Mars. 

When Sophia told you she was pregnant what were your first thoughts? I know you lost a child and it killed you so I am curious if that is what came to mind when Sophia told you she was pregnant.

 I was scared shitless. I didn’t want Sophia to know exactly how scared I was, but I feel like I held my breath for 9 months. I couldn’t take that kind of loss again and I didn’t want Sophia to ever experience that in her life. 

When Sophia was having the baby and he came out what were you thinking?

 I wouldn’t say I’m a religious person, but I sure as hell thanked God. I was in awe of the entire birthing experience. I didn’t think I could love any soul more than I did Sophia, but our baby has my heart and soul.

Now that you have Sophia and Jett what does the future hold for you guys?

 I don’t know yet, but I can’t wait to find out. I hope you’re as curious as I am.

Kayden thank you so much for stopping by and answering some not so comfortable questions. I really appreciate it and I look forward to hearing more about you and Sophia in the future!

Thank you for asking me such great questions and wanting to know more about Sophia and myself. Stay tuned.

Release Day Event For Without Doubt (Without #2) by C.J. Azevedo

Without Doubt Synopsis:

Ava Sterling is tough and the most straight laced girl you will ever meet. Her family and her past have managed to alter her future permanently and she has no desire to allow anyone else into her life or her heart for fear of rejection or further altering. Ava is alone in the world with the exception of the grandest responsibility she did not create on her own but on her own she will carry for the rest of her life.

Declan James is a MMA fighter, party all night kind of guy. Responsibility is nowhere to be found in his life or so he allows everyone around him to believe. Coming from wealth and a carefree lifestyle, Declan gets what he wants, always. And what he wants is Ava. In his pursuit of getting what he wants, Ava in his bed, his plan changes quickly without his consent. Against his plans of being the next hot bachelor to cross the tabloids as he makes his way to being the Ultimate Light Heavyweight Champion, Declan falls in love. He falls in love without hesitation and without doubt.

Neither Declan nor Ava are aware that fate has inconveniently intertwined their lives forever. Will they be able to survive the aftermath of the truth?

Goodreads:

Excerpt:

I start restocking the beer fridge when I get the feeling someone is watching me. I turn slowly to take in the people in the bar and check for anything suspicious. When my sight reached the back of the room, I found the set of eyes that made me stir. Declan. Deep blue-green eyes set just below dark furrowed brows. The piercing in his right brow shone under the low overhead lighting above his table and made me want to take it between my teeth. Our gazes connect and he doesn’t look away.

 The girl is still sitting on his lap and running her skanky hand up and down his thigh. She has no idea that he’s been staring at me for at least the last thirty seconds. Not being able to handle the stare contest any longer, I smile at him. He doesn’t smile back and it really doesn’t bother me. It probably should, but I have a feeling that it’s not a negative emotion that makes him continue to stare blankly.

Literati Author Services, Inc. Presents Rome (Marked Men # 3) By Jay Crownover


17798233
Title: Rome (Marked Men #3)
 Author: Jay Crownover
 Genre: New Adult Publication 
Date: January 7, 2014 
Publisher: William Morrow an imprint of HarperCollins Publishing 
Event organized by: Literati Author Services, Inc. 

Synopsis:

Cora Lewis is a whole lot of fun, and she knows how to keep her tattooed bad boy friends in line. But all that flash and sass hide the fact that she’s never gotten over the way her first love broke her heart. Now she has a plan to make sure that never happens again: She’s only going to fall in love with someone perfect.

Rome Archer is as far from perfect as a man can be. He’s stubborn and rigid, he’s bossy and has come back from his final tour of duty fundamentally broken. Rome’s used to filling a role: big brother, doting son, super soldier; and now none of these fit anymore. Now he’s just a man trying to figure out what to do with the rest of his life while keeping the demons of war and loss at bay. He would have been glad to suffer it alone, until Cora comes sweeping into his life and becomes the only color on his bleak horizon.

Perfect isn’t in the cards for these two, but imperfect might just last forever . . .


My Review

5 of 5 Rome Archer

First off I have to say that Jay Crownover is BRILLIANT just simply brilliant. She brings to the table a group of guys who are damaged at best but learn to love and find themselves. We first met Rule who was a mess but Shaw brought him back and then we get Jet and Ayden and holy hell was that one crazy ride and now we have Rome and Cora and let me tell you Rome is Rules big brother who is the good son the one that does everything right no matter what it is in the eyes of his parents.

Rome is the all American Soldier who goes off to the army and comes back a very changed man. Coming home from his last tour in the army Rome feels broken because he has seen so much while away and he knows that coming home is not going to be easy because he is going to come home to chaos. His family is upset with his younger brother Rule because he is a mess and does not conform to his parents wishes. But who would after losing your twin brother. But Rome comes home and he and Rule start to form a bond and Rome is happy with that but he still has something or actually someone missing from his life. 

This is where bad boy meets good girl who will change his life forever because Cora Lewis is a force to be wreck in with and she will show Rome what life is really about. See Cora knows how to keep the guys in line but deep down she is protecting herself from being hurt again. When she meets Rome her world and his world come crashing down and together the two of them will navigate through the dangerous waters of love.

Can two broken people really learn to love openly and let go of their demons? Can a soldier let go of those demons and ghosts long enough to open up and let sunshine in his life? Can a sassy snarky smartass women let her guard down long enough to let love in? Jay you have done it again and I loved every minute of reading Rome and I need more badass alpha men!

About the Author:

I’m supposed to share interesting details about myself so that my readers get to know me so here we go in no particular order: I’m an natural redhead even though I haven’t seen my real hair color in years, I’m a big fan of tattoos and have a half sleeve on either arm and various other pieces all over the place, I’ve been in the bar industry since I was in college and it has always offered interesting insight into how men and women interact with each other, I have 3 dogs that are all crazy, I live in Colorado and love the snow, I love music and in all reality wish I could be a rock star not a writer or a bartender but I have zero talent so there is that. I love to write, love to read and all I’m interested in is a good story with interesting characters that make the reader feel something.
