Cursed, numb, rejected,

scorned, wicked, sinister, dark, twisted…my name is Tex Campisi and this is
my legacy. I killed my father in cold blood and lost my soul right along with
him.

I crave war more
than peace, and I’m about to take my place in history as the youngest Capo dei
Capi in the Cosa Nostra…that is until someone stops me, saves me from myself.

But the only person
able to do that…is my best friends sister, Mo Abandanato, and she just ripped
my heart out and asked me to hold it in my hands while she put bullets through
it.

Im cursed so I did
it.

I’m numb so I held
it.

I’m wicked so I
liked it.

I used the pain Mo
caused as a catalyst to turn into my biggest nightmare–the five families
greatest enemy. It’s my turn to take a stand, knowing full well I’m going to
lose my mind to the madness that is the American Mafia. I’ve always been told
Blood is thicker than life. I wish I would have listened. Because regardless of
who you love? You will betray. You will kill.

Blood Always Wins.

The only way out is
death…yours.

Welcome to the Dark
Side of the Family

EXCERPT

“Eight minutes where I’d rather time didn’t exist.” I whispered watching pain roll across his face in a wave. “Kiss me again.”
With a soft exhale, he brushed his lips across mine, little feathery strokes that tempted me with promises of something more. He used his tongue to trace the outline of my lips before sliding inside, past my teeth, tasting every inch of me, giving me every inch he could of himself. Living in the moment, both of us knowing that it would soon be over.
“Seven.” I whispered against his mouth.
“Go to school,” he urged for a second time. “Make mistakes, Mo. Get in trouble, let Nixon find you sneaking wine into your backpack. Get sent to the Dean’s office, make mistakes,” he said again then licked his lips. “Let someone pick up the pieces of your broken heart, let someone fix what I destroyed.”
“What if I want to drop out and hermit myself in my room?” I refused to look at him.
“That’s not living, Mo.” Tex cupped my face. “I have five minutes left with you, do you want me to use it to kiss you or lecture you on why I’m right?”
I grinned as a tear slid down my cheek. “Both.”
His smile matched mine. “I forget how much you like being scolded.”
“Only if the one scolding has a firm hand.”
“Every last inch of me is firm and you know it.” Tex tugged me into his lap. “School will distract you, it will give you a better future then guns and war, it will take your focus from tragedy to the future. Please, for me, Mo, please try to do normal.”
“Normal.” I shook my head. “Not sure I know what that word is.”
“Normal,” Tex repeated. “Making love to someone under a tree not because you have to say goodbye, but because it’s the best way you can think to say hello.”
My lower lip quivered.
“Normal.” His voice was hoarse. “Marrying the love of your life not because her brother shoots you at point blank range–but because not marrying her would be a fate worse than death.”
He was silent then added, “Three minutes.”
I clenched his shirt with my hands and fought the urge to sob against his chest.
“Normal.” Tex’s voice was barely audible. “Going from country to country, traveling all over the world, not because you have a hit on you, but because you want to see the girl you love smile in every country God ever created.”
I knew the time was ticking by, it seemed the less time we had the faster it went, I guess that’s life.
I was looking at two more minutes, maybe less, with my lover, my friend, and all I could do was clench his shirt in my hands and twist, somehow willing him to stay on the ground rather than get up and walk towards certain death.
“Normal.” Tex moved to his feet, helping me up. “Giving the woman you love two hours of your time, because you can’t imagine spending your minutes, those precious seconds, any other way.”
Tex kissed my mouth hard, nearly bruising my lips before stepping back and kissing my nose.
“Time’s up,” he said gruffly.
“We’re no longer friends.” I said it as a statement, not even a question.
“For two hours I was your lover, your friend, your everything.” Tex looked away. “For the rest of eternity–I’m now your enemy.”

Book: Heaven Below

Series: Goddess of Ptalonia, Book One

Author: Heather Marie Adkins

Genre: Paranormal Romance

Cover art by Robyn Porter – Aos Si Designs

Seventeen-year-old Kelli McNeil wishes her only problems were what to wear and who to date. But she also has recurring nightmares about dying.

In every dream she sees Sebastian, and feels a love that echoes across the ages. As the dreams intensify, Kelli suspects they are not imagination, but memories of past lives. While these memories hint at an ancient prophecy and the fate of an entire race, they reveal a dark danger for her.

In every life, Sebastian is not only her true love – he is her murderer.

Heather Marie Adkins loves magick and words, but not necessarily in that order. She can often be found wrangling chickens in her backyard, pulling weeds from her herb garden, and saving field mice from her cats—when she isn’t plotting her eventual move to Ireland. She worships the moon and stars, and loves the feel of grass beneath her bare feet.

Heather lives in north-central Kentucky with a house full of animals and the love of her life—all of whom drive her crazy.

Lily and the Duke

Sex and the Season One

Wiltshire, England 1845

Lady Lily Jameson is thrilled to attend a house party given by Daniel Farnsworth, the Duke of Lybrook, but not because he’s the most eligible bachelor in the peerage. Her only interest is his famous art collection, which reputedly includes a painting by her favorite artist, Jan Vermeer.

Daniel, duke only by virtue of the untimely deaths of his father and older brother, wants nothing to do with his new duties. He’d rather continue his rakish ways. When he finds the lovely Lily sneaking around the property in search of his art collection, sparks fly.

Despite her father’s wishes, Lily has no intention of marrying. She wants to travel the world to gain real life inspiration for her painting and writing. And what could be better worldly experience than a passionate affair with the notorious Duke of Lybrook?

But circumstances may change the game and the players…and danger lurks, as well.

Unsettled (book #1) is on Sale

After a horrific breakup with her long-time boyfriend, Brooklyn Caldwell is completely disenchanted with the notion of mingling with the opposite sex. Damon Williams had been everything she thought she wanted…until he wasn’t.

In an attempt to escape her heartbreaking past, Brooklyn seeks refuge in bustling Washington DC where she folds into the fast paced society unnoticed…until she meets a young entrepreneur, Logan Colton.

Brooklyn is surprised to find that while she has been successful in keeping the opposite sex at bay, somehow she is defenceless against Logan’s confidence and charm—and it doesn’t hurt that he is absurdly beautiful. While thrilled with Logan’s candour, Brooklyn hesitates, as she can’t seem to move past the heartache that she suffered at the hands of Damon.

As much as Logan didn’t plan on pursuing her, he is drawn to Brooklyn’s muted beauty and her witty persona. For all his success, Logan is ensnared in the coveted world of unequivocal wealth and power, but behind closed doors is taunted by demons and an undeniable need to atone for a monumental mistake.

As the two embark on a tumultuous obstacle course saturated with unknown twists and turns, Brooklyn is left to question whether she can endure the journey ahead.

Anything by Jeri Williams Blog Tour

Published August 4, 2014 by bookbesties

Dacey and her family just went through having “Everything” in their life change. After the death of her parents, the rest of the family seems to working on moving forward. Her younger sister, Aria, is moving forward and is happy in a relationship. Her ex-boyfriend is clearly moving on, and even her crazy Aunt has started a new chapter in her life. She knew her life was beyond perfect, she thought she had seen the worst of it. Now with a wedding to plan, her distant bestie and trying to forget about how broken she really is Dacey is trying to start her own new chapter…. But fear, ex-boyfriends and malicious uncles keep getting in her way. She thought she could handle it all. And then there’s Justin who has made it very clear that he wants to be more to her than just a friend, but is Dacey ready for that? Can “Anything” go right for Dacey? Ever?

“Aria!” I yelled holding the dress up in the front and trying to put on my shoes at the same time, unsuccessful multi-tasker right here. “Can you come and zip me up?”

“It’d be my greatest pleasure.” Said a voice that I had gone to long without hearing. Whipping around I came face to face with Justin and almost lost my shit. If I thought he could make a pair of worn jeans and a t-shirt look hot, I lost brain cells seeing him a suit. His broad shoulders and muscular arms showed ever so slightly underneath his crisp black shirt and back blazer, topped off with that ridiculous color tie. He had one hand tucked in his pants pocket that cause the material to bunch up in the front leaving very little to the imagination of, well everything that JP had to offer. His chuckling is what alerted me that I was staring at him like he was a piece of steak and hadn’t eaten in months. I nonchalantly licked my bottom lip to make sure I also hadn’t been drooling. Yea he was drool worthy right now.

“Bell.” He tilted his head to me. At least he wasn’t too mad to where he stopped using my nickname. It was then that I realized I was practically naked, I had the dress covering up the important bits but the way he looked at me made me feel completely bare.

“Oh um JP, I didn’t know you were here.” I stammered. What the heck was wrong with me?

“Clearly, or do you treat all visitors this way?” He had a glint to his eye that I didn’t want to recognize.

“No! You’re early.” Obviously, Dacey duh!

“Then I’m glad, turn around I’ll get that for you.” He stalked across the room to me. I didn’t want to see that predatory look in his eyes so I complied and held my breath.

“Your beautiful Bell, I love this color on you.” He whispered. He grabbed me by the waist and pulled me closer to him, and I could feel the heat radiating off his body through the sheer fabric of the dress. He reached out and slowly eased the zipper up, notch by painstakingly slow notch. When his warm hand touched my neck to move my hair to the side I almost jumped out of my skin. It sent a little shock though me that went all the way down to my toenail polish. He hooked the top of the dress and I felt him pulling me back further, until I was flush against his front. His fingers trailed a line of fire across my shoulder and down my arm. He had never touched me like this before, no one had ever touched me like this before, like my skim was the most delicate thing he had ever touched. I didn’t pull away, I couldn’t pull away because if I was being honest with myself, I liked it. I liked his hands on my skin caressing me and making me feel, alive.

“Dacey.”

My name came out on an exhale as he wound his hand around my waist to rest on my stomach, locking me in place. I turned my head to the side and his lips were in my line of sight and all I wanted to do was drown myself in them. I knew that if I did that there would be no going back, no more friends because I knew how he felt about me but did I feel that way about him? Really? I was lonely but is that enough to jeopardize my friendship?

“Knock-knock home girl you just about…” Blaze stood in the doorway of my room hand paused mid knock.

“Blaze.” I scrambled out of Justin’s hold and spun around, trying to hide the hot wave of embarrassment across my cheeks. I looked from Justin who didn’t looked ruffled at all and was sizing up Blaze. Blaze gave me a knowing look as well as eyeing Justin like the man candy he was. Where is a hole when you need one?

Jeri Williams lives a super fabulous lifestyle (by fabulous, she mean’s kinda lame) in the hot Florida sun and loves reading of any kind (except instruction manuals and cereal boxes). She has always written stories and made her family listen to them since she was young, although this is her first book she has ever published. She is a mom of an up-and-coming Jerry Seinfeld (in girl form) and also enjoys being right and knowing everything, although she is hardly ever right and really doesn’t know anything and is obsessed with inventing miniature zoo animals you can carry around in your pocket (although not really).

“Why, Ben,” Alicia said coyly, “if there is no one else on this island, that means we can do anything we like, anywhere we like . . .”

“Exactly,” Ben replied in a low, sexy tone as he slid his hand in between her thighs. Finding the high slit in her skirt, he ran his large hand along the silk of her legs, wasting no time in getting to her bikini bottoms. He toyed with the strings resting on her hips. One little tug and they would fall away from her, leaving her exposed under her skirt. Trailing kisses down her neck to her collarbone, he pulled at the strings. “I’ve been waiting to do that all day,” he murmured in her ear.

Alicia gasped a little at the thought of being so exposed to the world before she realized that they really were alone. She allowed herself to enjoy the hot breeze as it caressed her sensitive skin. “That’s kind of why I bought it.”

Ben’s fingers moved along the length of her sex, taking in its satin warmth. Alicia gave a little moan and turned to find his mouth with hers, feeling her body respond as it always did to Ben’s touch. After years of his kisses, she never stopped getting that thrill from feeling his lips on her. He kissed her the way he looked at her, as though she were the only woman to have ever inhabited the planet.

Sliding his fingertips gently into her, pressing his palm against her, rubbing with exactly the amount of pressure that he knew she loved, Ben knew every inch of her body, how she wanted to be touched, what she needed, and he took full advantage of that knowledge as he moved his other hand up over her breasts. Moving his fingers in tiny circles inside her, he could feel her press herself hungrily against his hand. It wasn’t long before they reached that exquisite moment when she tensed in long waves as commanding as those in the ocean nearby. Alicia bit down on her lip to stifle the loud cry that begged to erupt from her throat. Ben’s own breathing become ragged and his entire body hardened at the desire that was building up in him. He wanted her right there on that beach and he was going to have her.
