Excerpt #1:  
Her first text message made me smile. 
Her second made my dick hard, which made me feel like a dirty old man. 
It wasn't the message itself; it was the confidence she had to send it in the first place. The fiery personality at thirteen was cute and endearing. At nineteen, it was fucking sexy as hell. 
Hold it together, Professor. 
I thought about Julia over the years because the last time I saw her, it broke my fucking heart to pieces and pissed me off. 
I felt guilty because I knew what a prick my best friend had been to his family. I saw it daily and never had the balls to call him on it. He led and I followed him into some seedy dark places. Places his family had no clue about, places that broke up my own marriage six years ago. I was betrayed in the worst way and had no desire to have a woman on my arm. 
I required one in my bed on occasion. 
But never a student. 
Excerpt #2: 
"What are you doing here, Jules?" 
"I wanted to see you. We haven't talking in a few days, and I just wanted to check in." I laid my hands flat against the books; they offered comfort. 
"You should have called." He stared off toward his desk. 
"Are you excepting company?" 
"No. It's been a long week; I'm tired and I have a headache." 
I stepped toward him, stood a few inches away, but he didn't drop his hands. 
"You should let me rub your temples." I reached up, and he grabbed my hand and stepped away.
"Don't." 
"You don't even want me to touch you?" I asked over the grapefruit size lump in my throat.
"Jules, please just go." 
"No. Why?" I asked. "I just want to be near you. Why is that so bad?" 
"It's not bad, but I just can't." 
"Why? What is it?" 
"You wouldn't understand." 
"Then make me understand." 
His eyes flashed, and he stepped toward me. I welcomed the warmth. His demeanor softened for a split second. I saw it. I felt it, but then it was gone, and he slumped back on the bookshelves with his chin to his chest. 
"I can't," he said. 
The words crushed me yet his tone scared me. I stood in front of him. He shuddered but didn't look at me. I bent down, so I could see his eyes. 
"Why?" I asked. "What are you afraid of?" 
He lifted his head. He reached up and ran the back of his hand down my tear-soaked face. 
I shuddered. 
"I'm afraid if I tell you, if I show you what I am and what I'm truly like, then you'll stop looking at me like that." His hand dropped to his side. "I'd really miss that." 
"How do I look at you?" I asked. I knew the answer but wanted to hear how he saw it. 
"Like I'm a king. You have the ultimate faith in me. I don't deserve it." His head dropped again. 
"Then earn it," I said, my tone stronger than I felt on the inside. Inside, I felt like I might crumble any minutes if he didn't touch me. 
"Oh, Julia ... How?" He raised his head. 
I spotted a glimmer of hope in his eyes. 
"Keep it simple. What do you need me to do?" 
His eyes grew dark as he approached me. I backed up into the bookshelf, and he placed his hands on either side of my head. 
"Do as I say?" 
I nodded. My heart raced, and I was sure he could hear it thumping like crazy. He placed his hand over my heart, and I drew in a sharp breath. His fingers tapped against my sternum. 
"Look at me." 
I turned my head up and stared into his eyes. His hands rose and surround my throat. He didn't squeeze, but panic set in. 
"I'm not going to hurt you, Jules." He pressed a little tighter. "I need you to trust me." 
"Okay." 
"Do you trust me?" 
I nodded. 
"Say it." 
"I trust—" Before I finished the sentence, his lips were on mine.

'Mysterious' #BookReview Rescuing Lara by Lyn Horner #PNR



He vowed to save her . . . even from herself. It won’t be easy with killers on her trail and the past haunting her.

Lara Spenser guards one of seven prophetic scrolls held by the Council of Guardians. Now a band of killers are out to steal the scrolls. They murdered Lara’s uncle, the High Guardian, and left her seriously injured. She has since escaped to Ireland but knows the killers will find her. She desperately needs a bodyguard.

Enter Connor O’Shea, ex-Special Forces soldier. Conn is on leave in Ireland after a devastating explosion on his firefighting job. Out of curiosity, he answers Lara’s ad in the local newspaper for a “strong chauffeur”. He takes on the job of guarding her

Romance blooms between the two, but with Lara’s pursuers menacing them, the scene shifts to Texas. While Conn may prove his ability to protect her, can he rescue her from soul-deep pain that holds her prisoner?
BOOK REVIEW

This was a mysterious paranormal romance that takes us from rural Ireland to the big city Texas, USA.
Lara is injured in an accident which leaves her crippled and scarred. As a guardian, she has inherited scroll from her uncle and is working to decode the messages in the scroll. But she is also on the run from a group of people (Hellhounds) who want the scrolls so they can use them for evil. Lara is sworn to protect the scroll. But she needs someone to protect her.

This is where Conn comes in. He is an ex army special forces and is hired to be her bodyguard. He is also in Ireland to find some long lost family. Soon the two of them are trying to escape the Hellhounds while she also has to decode her uncle's journal. The mystery of the journal have then travelling to Texas to ask for help from Conn's contact.

On the whole the story is entertaining once the adventure starts. The romance between Connor and Lara is sweet and you can see that once Conn decides to protect her, he slowly falls for her. Lara's scars go deeper than just the physical scars and she needs convincing to see herself as beautiful even with the scars.

This is a good read for anyone who enjoys mystery and romance.

Explore the dark side of the Little Mermaid fairy tale #erotic #PNR @JoeyWHill


When a wounded angel falls out of the skies, a mermaid risks her life to save him…

A seawitch who hates the whole world is championed by the one angel who refuses to let her drive him away…
A merangel is trapped in a dark world with a vampire half-breed who doesn’t know the difference between good and evil; only between what he wants and what he can have…
The Daughters of Arianne trilogy: Paranormal romances that straddle the line between sensual and erotic, and explore the dark side of the Little Mermaid fairy tale. Now, these books are being re-released at self-published prices and, even better, they’re on sale during the pre-order period! Through July 31, get all three full-length novels for $8.97 on Amazon, Kobo or iBooks.
For full excerpts and blurbs to these three titles, visit http://storywitch.com/series-doa.
From the author: When I wrote these books, I expected them to be romances with lovely mermaids, really hot angels, and awesome good-versus-evil climactic battles. All that worked out just fine (wink), but the stories also became an emotional exploration into how we deal with love and loss, regrets, and how we try to live every moment of our life with a deep understanding of how precious it can be, no matter what challenges we face. I hope you give them a try!

💥BLURB💥

When everything is stacked against you, sometimes surviving only happens when you find that one person in the world and the one place you truly…

Belong.

Sarah:

This world can beat you down.
Make you feel worthless.
Swallow you up in its darkness.

In the blink of an eye the people I loved more than anything, were taken from me.
Leaving me alone with no one but my abusive father.
If you get told you’re worthless often enough, you start to believe it.

You drink it in until it poisons your soul.
That was my life…until Justin.

Justin:

The minute I saw Sarah, I knew she was special.
I wanted to claim her then, but she wasn’t ready.
Seeing her again, I know I’m done waiting.

I want her.

I’m not stopping until I make her see how special she is.
I want her to look in the mirror and see the woman I see, the woman who was made for me. Sarah thinks she doesn’t deserve me.

She doesn’t think I can understand the pain inside of her.
I have the same darkness inside of me.
I just need her to believe in herself and in me.

In us.

Can two damaged souls learn to trust and lean on each other?
Can they put their past behind them and learn just how beautiful life can be together?
Or when tragedy strikes, will it all be lost forever?

Reviews for Belong

Wow I absolutely loved Belong this book really is a must read! Sarah has had a horrible upbringing but when Justin walks into the diner and sees Sarah sparks fly between them but will she give into her feelings or keep them closed off .I don't want to give to much of the story away because this isn t your regular storyline there's so much more and yes you will need tissues on standby . NB you did absolutely awesome and amazing with this book and I absolutely love it. 
~ Terra Oenningon

This is the first book I have read by NB Baker and it gripped me from the start. I cried and laughed and felt what the characters were feeling. Sarah and Justin both came from tragic backgrounds and were true soulmates. This is the best kind of feel good books I love to read. Rough spots and all I encourage you to read Belong. You will love it as much as I did!

A shocking tale of romance and deception, N.B. Baker’s Everything is an impressive debut that proves no secret is ever really buried. Ella Stone is struggling to pick up the pieces of her life. 


Abandoned by her parents when she was an infant, both of the grandparents who raised her are now gone. Facing her future for the first time, Ella decides to move to Detroit in order to be near her two best friends. After a misguided relationship with a man she finds in bed with another woman, Ella begins doubting her life-changing move. That is, until she meets Chance St. John. When Chance fends off a brutal attack, he and Ella share an instant connection. As the two get to know each other, their passionate exploits both in and out of the bedroom make way for a deeper connection for which neither one was quite prepared. But despite their increasing closeness, Ella can’t shake the feeling that Chance is hiding something from her. His frequent nightmares and skittish responses point to a secret in his past that haunts him still. While Ella attempts to uncover Chance’s mysterious past, her own life takes a turn for the strange. As Everything builds to its explosive climax, Ella must discover the truth before Chance’s dark past consumes them both.

EIGHTY-ONE DAYS
by Zoë Mullins

Genre: Contemporary Erotic Romance

Eric didn’t know Luke would be heartbroken when he left town to join a hotshot forest fire crew in Western Canada. They’d been best friends since kindergarten, had gone to school together, had bought their first car and a home together, and had shared their lovers. At some point, friendship had turned to love.

Luke didn’t expect that when he’d brought his crazy cat in for stitches that his heart that would be mended by the sassy new veterinarian. Jenna may have been new in town but she’d heard the rumors and she liked the carnal fantasies he spun for her in bed of he and his best friend sharing her.

Of course, that was before Eric’s job brought him home and back into their lives.

Jenna isn’t sure she can be what they need, but she’s not going give up without a fight.

Even if that means inviting the sexy firefighter to share their bed. Surely there is enough love to go around.



Don’t be a stranger? Had that been Eric’s way, he wondered, of saying I miss you too? The situation had been totally fucked up, but it had worked. At least, right up until the moment he had met Jenna. He couldn’t do that to Jenna.

Instead he had told Eric about how Winchester had fallen asleep in her arms. How Jenna knew how to make homemade pasta but hated tomatoes. He had begun detailing all the little things that she did or said that were making him fall in love with her and that he knew could make Eric fall in love with her too.

He knew it wasn’t fair to any of them, but after seeing how well they had gotten on all summer, he couldn’t help but hope for something more. He wanted the fantasy.

“Hey. You totally just zoned out there.” Jenna squeezed his hand and he looked up. “We don’t have to stay for the movie.”

“No. I want to.” It had become a monthly ritual, to head to his parents’ for dinner and a movie. “I promised Mom we’d watch The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel with her.”

“I know you’re really doing that for me.” Jenna snuggled into his side and kissed his cheek.

“You’re right. I’ll probably sneak away with Dad to watch baseball.”

“Totally acceptable, so long as you bring me a Nespresso from your Mom’s ‘off-limits’ coffee maker.”

“It’s only off limits to my dad. She totally loves that you enjoy the Nespresso. We can get one for home, you know?” Luke knew she found the coffee he made too weak. She liked her coffee like sludge. It made him shudder.

She shook her head, smiling. “Nope. This way it’s special.”

He had just brought her a cup of Nespresso and was going to join his father in the rec room to watch the baseball game he’d recorded that afternoon when he heard the crunch of tires on the driveway.

“I got it,” he called to his mom so they didn’t have to stop their movie. He pulled open the front door to see Eric ascending the steps.

Luke stared.

Eric looked just as startled. After a moment he stumbled over his words, “Your mom. That is, I mean, she invited me for dessert.”

“Eric, come on in. I saved you a piece of apple pie.” Luke’s mother, Maggie, called from inside.






A prolific writer, even in elementary school, she was jotting down poems and stories whenever she had the chance - usually during math class.

After many years of working in corporate communications, Zoë decided in 2015 it was time to focus her energy on the kind of writing she loved – hot romances with strong, alpha heroes and quirky, independent heroines.

Zoë’s husband of nearly 20 years threw his full support behind that dream and loves to tell people his wife is a romance author. They live in Atlantic Canada with their two crazy collies. When not at her computer, you will find Zoë chasing after her muddy dogs, working in the garden or helping to renovate their money-pit of a house.
