Release Blitz - Rush by Brianna Hale

Title: Rush: A Rockstar Daddy Romance

Author: Brianna Hale

Genre: Steamy Contemporary Romance

Release Date: April 21, 2021

BLURB

Rush Osman probably watches himself in the mirror while he screws and kisses his biceps good morning. An arrogant, domineering, over-dressed rock star. The sort of man I’ve had my fill of for a hundred lifetimes.

And yet.

Rush has an energy about him that pulls me in. Captivating energy. Dark, magnetic energy. Big Daddy energy.

I feel it crackling between us every time I’m close to him. Now, my only choice is to get far, far away from him, or be pulled into a world that I swore I’d never set foot in again. A world that thrashed me, body and soul.

A world that Rush promises to protect me from, if only I surrender myself to him.

I’ve only ever trusted myself, but Rush is battering against my defenses. He pushes me to the brink and then holds me there until I shatter. His punishment is a rush. Falling for him is a rush. Loving him is a rush.

But being destroyed by him is the biggest rush of all.

EXCERPT

“Cut that out. You haven’t said one word apart from Glastonbury.”

Pushing his sunglasses to the top of his head, Rush smiles. “Daddy missed you, baby.”

My insides turn to honey. “That’s no excuse for coming to my home and kidnapping me.”

“What else was I supposed to do when you don’t answer my calls? There are going to be two hundred thousand people watching us tonight, but that place would feel empty to me if you weren’t there. I’m not performing tonight without my girlfriend with me.”

“I’m not your—”

His mouth slants over mine and his tongue parts my lips. It’s getting harder and harder to pull away the more he kisses me.

“Rush! You can’t just kiss me every time I say something you don’t like.”

“Watch me.” His mouth claims mine again. I’m not strong enough to survive this assault on my senses. A moment later I’m kissing him back as he hauls me up on his lap. He puts a hand under my skirt and strokes my clit, making heat cascade through my body.

“You can’t do that here.”

“Fucking, can’t I?” He pulls my underwear aside. Looking me dead in the eye, he sucks on his middle and ring fingers, getting them wet. Too shocked and turned on to react, I watch as he puts them down between my legs and slides them straight into my pussy.

“Rush.” I bury my face in his chest as he pumps his fingers into me. My body must think that being carried around on his shoulder was foreplay because I’m so close to coming all over his hand. I brace one foot against the window and lean into it. Taking a deep breath, I’m able to open my eyes and ask. “Did you miss me?”

Rush looks ferocious, his face just inches from mine. “Did you miss me, Daddy?”

Release Blitz - Rush by C.A. Harms

Title: Rush

Series: Montgomery Men #1

Author: C.A. Harms

Genre: Contemporary Romance 

 Release Date: August 23, 2016

Blurb

I was running from my husband, a man I thought I’d known.
Running from the hell he had put me through.

He’d nearly destroyed the woman I had once been and
I would do whatever it took to regain my freedom.

I would lie, and cheat.
I would steal if it meant that I never had to go back there.

I’d run and keep running…

But there was one problem. I hadn’t planned for Ashton Montgomery.
He was a distraction I couldn’t allow. Not if I wanted to stay safe. I had to remain distant, but he was relentless and had other ideas.
I caved because I hadn’t thought it all through, not in detail.
If I had I would’ve realized that you can only live in a fantasy world for so long before everything came crashing in around you.
And those lives you’ve destroyed along the way, make you no better than the monster you were trying to break free from.

How could I have been so careless?
It wasn’t meant to turn out this way.
But the Rush of my freedom took control and I forgot how important it was to keep the secret of who I had once been.

And now I had nothing.
Only the fear that the man I’d run from would find me again, and finish what he started.

Author Bio

A little about me. Let’s see where to start.

I love HEA stories, as long as they come packing a little heat. I need some excitement, some angst, and moments that make me fan my face are always good too. I am an Illinois girl, born and raised. Simple and true, it honestly doesn’t take much to make me happy. I love the little things; they truly mean the most. I may have a slight addiction to my new Keurig—oh my, that thing is a godsend. And so fast too. I have two children who truly are my very best friends, and their faces never fail to put a smile on my face. I have been married to my husband for sixteen years, and even though at times I want to beat him with a stick, I would never change the years we have had. We have learned and fallen, only to pick each other up, dust off the ache, and help each other make it right.

I am one of those authors that adore my fans. I love to hear from you. After all, it is because of each one of you that I continue to write. I look forward to your feedback.

Review ~ Rush by Shae Ross

Title: Rush

Series: Pretty Smart Girls #3

Author: Shae Ross

Release Date: May 9, 2016

Priscilla Winslow has a mouth that spits fiery sarcasm faster than I can throw a touchdown. But I’ve wanted her ever since I saw her in that Bo Peep outfit on Halloween. Yep, I’m a sheep who will follow that little hottie anywhere. There’s one problem…she hates me. Just because we ended up in jail and quite possibly ruined both our futures... 

They’re changing the rules…

College Quarterback, Preston Rush is living the dream. He’s leading his team to the National Championship and days away from earning a ‘first round draft pick’ label. When he meets Little Bo Peep at a Halloween party, he thinks he’s scored big. Instead, he wakes up in a jail cell with the corseted beauty. Because of him, she’s in trouble and when he discovers her true identity, he realizes, his nightmare is just beginning.

The always shooting for perfection Priscilla Winslow can’t believe her good deed has cost her soccer career. Even though she knows it isn’t Preston’s fault, she can’t forgive him for the disaster that is her life. She just wishes her damn body would get the message. Every time she sees him, it’s all she can do not to kiss him. 

When everything crashes down around him, Preston will have to decide if doing the right thing is worth losing it all.

RUSH was my first Shae Ross book and it is a testament to how well it is written that I had no idea it was part of a series until I went to write this review. It not only works just fine as a standalone—it's really, really good. 

It is no easy feat to pull off an angry female while still keeping her likable, and yet, Ms. Ross has done exactly that. Priscilla is a strong, outspoken female athlete who finds herself in the position to have to fight for something that means a lot to her. She's angry—and rightfully so—but she's never mean or spiteful. She never loses sight of the fact that she's not the center of the universe. She's written in such a relatable way that you can't help but cheer for her and frankly, her outbursts and antics are hilarious and understandable. I loved this so much. 

I also loved what Ms. Ross did for female collegiate sports here. I loved how Priscilla’s teammates (Jace!) rallied and fought for their place in the athletic hierarchy. These women were smart and fierce without ever—not once—feeling heavy-handed or overly dramatic. I loved the friendships and loyalty, and how the serious plot points were balanced with laugh out loud, quirky, funny moments. I just loved them. I loved this whole storyline!

As crazy as I was about how Ms. Ross portrayed the female athletes, I also adored how she wrote Preston. He's not a typical football hero. It was so easy to love him; he’s strong, honorable, and a bit of a rascal. He's funny and easygoing while also being fiercely protective and intensely hot. He's the perfect pair for Priscilla, and together they are a bona fide team. They respect each other. They support each other. And how that plays out was like a breath of fresh air—a subtle, but fresh twist on this much-loved trope.

RUSH was everything I love about football romances written in a way I didn't even know I was dying to read. If that hot-as-sin cover alone didn't suck you right in, let the fact that it is refreshing, funny, and equally hot-as-sin on the inside help you pull that trigger. 

~ Review by Shelly

Prior to 2014, she spent the majority of her career practicing corporate law, running a successful business and engaged in entrepreneurial ventures. 

After having one too many stressful days at the office, Ms. Ross began to consider pursuing her lifelong dream of writing. Armed with an English degree, an interest in historical settings and a huge collection of romance novels, Ms. Ross put pen to paper and began converting the characters in her head to ink. She soon found herself happily immersed in a new working world that included heroes and heroines, agents and editors, and a multitude of secondary characters.

Launch Day Blitz - Rush by Nyrae Dawn

 

 Title: Rush
Author: Nyrae Dawn
Release Date: May 6, 2014

 

Brandon Chase has always defined himself by one thing: football. Tough and athletic, he is a great college player who enjoys the hard hits and the sweaty grind of the gridiron. But when Brandon is injured, only one person can help him get back on track-a forbidden love he's desperately tried to put behind him.

Alec Andrews has never quite forgiven Brandon for walking away when their friendship turned into something more. But he can't deny help to one of his closest friends. As the two spend the long, hot summer working together, their old attraction comes flooding back.

Now as Alec thinks about coming out to his conservative family and Brandon considers revealing he's a gay football player, the two men must be strong to fight for a love that could be the greatest rush of their lives.

Rush is your typical coming out book. I have read a lot of these books and they all have the same gist. But Nyrae created characters that I adored. Brandon stole my heart with his coming out and his love for Alec. Rush isn’t full of hot sex scenes but the love these men have for each other is touching. It was a very real book with a homophobic dad, a set of supporting parents and a best friend.

I think all in all this book is 4 stars.

 

 ~ Review by Jordan

 

 

 

 

 

There were so many times when we were teenagers where we snuck to places just like this. We’d slip off into the woods to find a spot and we’d talk and then kiss and it was so different than the girl’s I’d done the same thing with. Our shirts would come off and our bodies matched in so many ways and felt so right against each other.

 

He’d touch me and I’d touch him though we were too stupid and scared to try without clothes between us. I don’t want to be stupid anymore.

 

“You’re fucking killing me here. You just told me last night you’re still pissed at me. I don’t want to screw-up with you. Not anymore. I’m scared as hell to do the wrong thing.”

 

I take a step toward him. Then another. It’s all Brandon needs and then he’s coming toward me and backing me against the car. The metal is hot on my back but the sting doesn’t touch the need rushing through me.

 

 

Writing has always been Nyrae Dawn's passion. Nyrae gravitates toward character-driven stories. She loves going on emotional journeys with characters whether it be reading or writing. And yes, she's a total romantic at heart and proud.

Nyrae resides in sunny Southern California with her husband (who still makes her swoon) and her two awesome kids.

When she's not with her family, you can be pretty sure you'll find her with a book in her hand or her laptop and an open document in front of her. Nyrae also writes adult romance under the name Kelley Vitollo.
