WICKED REUNION by MICHELLE A. VALENTINE

December 15, 2015

It’s time to meet your newest rockstar obsession, Jared Kraft, in WICKED REUNION by Michelle A. Valentine! WICKED REUNION is the ultimate second chance romance – Jared and London’s story is available now!

About WICKED REUNION:

College sweethearts London Uphill and Jared Kraft were inseparable. He was a rising baseball star with a promising future, and she seemed destined to become “Mrs. Kraft.” Then a tragic night and a series of devastating mistakes caused Jared to walk away from his life, leaving London without any explanation and tearing the couple apart.

Five years later, Jared has reinvented himself by putting down the bat and picking up a guitar to play for the red-hot band Wicked White. In all that time, London hasn’t gotten over her forever love—or the pain—despite seeking solace in the arms of the one man no one dreamed she’d run to.

When Wicked White’s lead singer goes MIA, Jared finds the time—and courage—to return to his hometown and face the mess he made. He’s shocked at how London’s life has changed, yet he’s determined to prove their love is worth fighting for. Is this breakup too big for any hope of a reunion tour? Or can London open her heart to Jared once again?

EXCERPT

My mouth drops open and I can’t do anything but stare. It’s like seeing a ghost—something you never in your life ever expected to see—and I just can’t look away. I resist the urge to reach down and pinch myself to make sure this moment is real.

Is this his idea of some twisted joke? I mean, there’s no way in hell that Jared Kraft is standing in my doorway with a dozen yellow roses after five years without a single word.

Shit like that only happens in movies, and my life for damn sure isn’t some glamorous fairy tale.

I stand there, staring like an idiot, while my brain tries to work out exactly what’s going on here. I furrow my brow. This has to be a dream. No way this man has the nerve to just show up here like this—not after all this time.

I step back and take a long moment to study his face. He looks exactly the same as the last time I saw him, only his hair is longer—more shaggy and unkempt—the style I’ve seen him wear whenever I see pictures of him with his band, Wicked White. To prove to myself that this really is a dream, I reach down and bunch some skin up on my arm and then pinch with all my might.

“Ouch!” I yelp as I inspect the flesh my nails dug into.

My breath catches the moment I realize that the man who used to be my everything—the man who took off five years ago, leaving me and his family behind without so much as a good-bye or piss off—is standing on my porch.

When my eyes meet his, so many questions rage through my mind, but before I can open my mouth to ask a single one, anger begins to boil over inside me. How dare he just come waltzing into my life after all this time?

My body reacts of its own accord and my hand darts out to snatch the flowers out of his hand. His eyes grow wider when I slam them down onto my porch and then smack his face as hard as I can.

WickedWhite

Title: Wicked White
Author: Michelle A. Valentine
Release Date: June 23, 2015
Publisher: Montlake Romance
Genre: Contemporary Romance

Summary:

After his mother dies, rock star Ace White—lead singer of the red-hot band Wicked White—is done with the celebrity game. The phony people, the meaningless one-night stands: he doesn’t want any of it anymore. Quitting in the middle of a sold-out tour, Ace sets out to find some place—any place—where he can be alone.

Aspiring singer Iris Easton’s life has never been easy. First, her mother walked out on her when she was a kid. Now she’s buried in debt, weeks after losing her beloved grandmother. When a mysterious and sexy new guy moves in next door, Iris can’t help but be drawn to his soulful gaze. She can tell there’s something from his past haunting him—something he’s not telling her.

Just as Ace starts falling for Iris, the media go on a worldwide hunt to find the missing rocker. Will true love conquer all, or will the truth be the very thing that tears the couple apart?

Excerpt:

“Iris…that was amazing. You’ve got so much talent,” I praise.

Her green eyes light up with excitement like a child’s do on Christmas morning. “You really think so? You’re not just saying that?”

“No. I never bullshit about music. You’ve definitely got the chops for Broadway, it’s just…” I hesitate, not wanting to hurt her feelings, but I know that in order for her to get better, she has to be told what she’s doing wrong.

She lays her hand on my forearm. “Please, tell me. I can take it. Promise.”

I stand beside her, so close that my chest nearly touches her shoulder. I’m itching to touch her, but I won’t do it without permission. “May I touch you?”

She draws in a ragged breath and then nods. “Yes.”

I curl the fingers of my right hand around her right shoulder and pull back a little so that her posture is perpendicular to the floor. At this angle, I can’t help but notice her heaving chest and how her perky tits move in sync with each breath she takes.

I slide my left hand against her toned stomach and my pinkie grazes the warm patch of skin that’s exposed between her T-shirt and the waistband of her jeans.

Our contact is fucking electric, and my own breathing picks up speed as I attempt to fight back the arousal I feel for her boiling beneath my surface.

“Everything about you is magnetic,” I whisper in her ear, and she shivers at the words. “Don’t be afraid to open your eyes and watch your audience enjoy you. Be confident and project. Let go.”

I let go of her shoulder, and move to face her before pressing the repeat button on the machine. As the intro of the song plays, I say, “Do it again, but this time I want you to look at me.”

This time when she opens her mouth to sing, when she begins to tip her head down, I slide my index finger under her chin and angle her head so that she’s forced to peer into my eyes.

Her words are just barely above a whisper, so I slip my hand back on her abdomen and say, “Project–from here. Sing it like you mean it.”

It’s like lightening strikes this beautiful woman in my arms as she sings to me without fear. The words of the song come out effortlessly, and her voice could rival any of the greatest female vocalists of all time.

She’s that damn stunning.

I nod approvingly and smile. “Yes!”

With that little bit of encouragement, she shocks me even more when she pushes herself to hit notes that are above and beyond what she reached the first time.

Only on the last lyric does she close her eyes while she holds the note there until the music stops. She releases a contented sigh as soon as the music ends, and when her beautiful eyes meet mine again, they swirl with emotion.

Completely blown away, I fumble with the words to tell her just how impressed I am. “Iris, that was–”

Without warning, she throws her arms around my neck and crushes her lips against mine. I know kissing her back is wrong, but I’ll be damned if I don’t want her so badly at this point that I can’t stop myself from giving in. I’ve been so good with restraining myself when it comes to Iris, because protecting her from the chaos that I’ll bring her is what’s always been on the forefront of my mind.

Her fingers thrust into my hair, and I reach down and curl my hands around her thighs before hoisting her into the air. Instinctively she wraps her legs around my waist, and I thread one of my hands into her tousled curls while the other is busy cupping that perfect ass of hers.

“I’ve wanted you since you walked into my trailer,” she breathes against my lips.

A thrill shoots through me at her admission of how long she’s wanted me. “You’ve been driving me out of my mind from the moment I first saw you.”

“Then take me.”

An Excerpt

His lips pull into a
tight line, and I fully expect him to release me, but he doesn’t. Xavier’s grip
stays firmly in place. “It’s fine if you don’t want to say what’s on your mind.
I get that, but no more frowning for the rest of this trip, or I might be
forced to find other ways to make you smile just to piss your boyfriend the
fuck off.”

My mouth drops open
and I can’t stop myself from asking, “What kind of ways?”

Damn my stupid
curious brain. That just set him up for all kinds of more dirty talk.

He tries to fight
back a smile, but it doesn’t work. It comes at me in full, glorious force.
“More ways than that sweet brain of yours could ever imagine.” He leans into me
and I tense while he still holds me in place. He’s close enough that if I
pushed forward a couple inches our lips will meet in what I imagine would be an
earth altering kiss. “I could do things to your body that most women only dream
about while reading their dirty, porn romance novels, and I promise you’d
fucking enjoy it.”

BLOG TOUR, REVIEW, EXCERPT and GIVEAWAY: ROCK THE BEAT (BLACK FALCON #3) by MICHELLE A. VALENTINE

November 7, 2013

Today we have a review and fantastic giveaway for Michelle Valentine’s ROCK THE BEAT, along with a very spicy excerpt! Enjoy – Trip and Holly would make some great weekend reading!

Synopsis:
Twenty-year-old Holly Pearson never dreamed that while working at her father’s motocross track she’d run into the walking, talking definition of trouble in a sexy, tattooed package—Trip Douglas, the man sent to evaluate the track for a possible investment opportunity. Holly makes no attempt to hide the fact she despises Trip, but she learns to be civil toward him when he offers to help her land the man of her dreams.

Trip needs a break from the crazy rock-and-roll lifestyle he’s been living for the past few years. With his Black Falcon band mates settling down with marriage and babies, Trip peruses an investment opportunity in motocross, something he’s always been passionate about. Hiding his celebrity status, Trip infiltrates the new business posing as a dirt bike rider training for the X-Games. The only obstacle is the owner’s daughter, Holly. She’s a real ball bustin’ Ice Queen, and she’ll do whatever it takes to make the deal fall through. Trip soon discovers that winning over his new enemy is the key to gaining a partnership in Mountain Time Speed Track.

Knowing he’s the expert on getting laid, Trip ropes Holly into becoming his ally by helping her score a date with the man she’s crushing on. The problem is, the more time Trip and Holly spend together, the more they uncover the undeniable attraction between them. Soon they both realize that even the best laid plans go to hell when you find you’re falling in love with the enemy.
**Book THREE in the Black Falcon series. Can also be read as a stand-alone novel**
Review
No one can write a hot and sweet rocker book quite like Michelle Valentine. In Rock the Beat, we have good-girl Holly, who finds herself in the middle of a very painful break-up with her semi-famous boyfriend, Jackson. Along comes hot-as-hell Trip, who is looking into investing in Holly’s family business. Holly has no idea who he is, but makes it quite clear that she detests celebrities and would never become involved with one. Trip is increasingly attracted to Holly so he hides his true identity. He wants Holly to accept him for who he is and not because he is rich and famous. Trip agrees to help Holly try to win Jackson back, but in the process, he can’t deny his feelings towards the very sweet and very beautiful Holly.

There is an interesting subplot involving Holly’s best friend Max which adds some weight and drama to this hot rock star romance. I also love the alternating POV’s. Overall, a very sexy and fairly quick read for fans of the Black Falcon series!

Excerpt:

I pull a pair of sunglasses out of my pocket and slip them on my face. “I’m new in town.”
“Is that right?” I don’t care for the snide tone in his voice. No one challenges me even a little bit and gets away with it.
I stiffen my back. “Yeah. That’s right. What of it?”
Jackson raises his eyebrows. “It’s just I know all the riders around here.”
“Like I said, I’m new, and to be honest I don’t care for the fucking third degree you’re trying to give me. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll back off. Now.”
He narrows his eyes at me. “Maybe you don’t get how things work around here, so I’m going to fill you in. I run this place. Nothing goes on around here without my okay.”
I laugh. “That’s funny, because I sure as hell swooped in and stole your girl from under your nose.”
He shakes his head. “You and I both know I can get Holly back anytime I want her. When I get tired of fucking around and I’m ready to settle down, she’ll take me back. Don’t doubt my hold on her. I own her.”
My fingers curl into fists at my side. I know the plan is to make him want her back, but after talking to this motherfucker, I know she deserves better. The urge to protect her rages inside me. “That’s what you fucking think. I’d like to see you try and take her from me.”
Jackson smirks. “Care to place a bet on that?”
Is this asshole for real? He has no idea who in the hell he’s challenging. “I don’t need to gamble on something that I know is a sure thing.”
He steps closer, invading my personal space. “I was with her two years. I could fuck her right in front of you if I wanted.”
“Watch your fucking mouth. I swear if you say one more thing about her—”
“You’ll what?” he dares me. “Hit me? Do you know who I am, pretty-boy? My lawyers will eat you for breakfast.”
His threat doesn’t even faze me and it’s obvious he has no clue who I am, and that I don’t give a fuck about the law. It’s never stopped me from ripping into someone’s ass before, and it’s not going to start now. “Talk about her like that again, and see what happens.”
Jackson’s tongue touches the corner of his mouth as he wears a smug smile. “You don’t know what you’ve fucking started. I’m going to take her away from you now just because I can. Your days are numbered, prick.”
The muscle in my jaw flexes. “Keep telling yourself that, while I’m in her room at night tasting that sweet pussy.”

Release Date: TBA

Genre:

Reveal Organized by: I Love Indie Books

-Synopsis-

No names.

No faces.

No identities.

That’s the rules at Elite.

Just as nineteen-year-old Carly Hutchinson’s life falls on hard times, she’s offered a job at Elite, a secret organization that provides beautiful women to wealthy men with no strings attached. With an ill mother, and a special needs little sister to look after, she’ll do whatever it takes to keep them from losing their home and keep their heads above water, even if that means auctioning off her most prized commodity—her virginity.

Doctor Gabriel Jenson is a hungry medical school student ready to play ball in the big leagues. Power, money and success drive him to accomplish things that most men would never dare go after. When Gabriel receives an invitation to join the city’s most exclusive gentleman’s club, he can’t pass up the opportunity to prove he belongs.

When Gabriel wins Carly’s virginity as the highest bidder, he can’t help to be taken with the young woman and finds himself at a crossroads. Even though both of their identities remain hidden, he can’t close the deal and take his prize. He needs her to submit for more reasons than just money. Sex alone with this woman isn’t going to be enough and he’s willing to break all the rules to claim her.

REVIEW TOUR: ROCK MY WORLD (BLACK FALCON #2.5) by MICHELLE VALENTINE

July 9, 2013

Blurb:

*A Novella in the New York Times and USA Today best-selling Black Falcon series*   

After Aubrey Jenson is wrongly dismissed from her job at Center Stage Marketing, she seeks legal advice from her father, The Judge, to see what grounds she has to get her position reinstated. Her surprise visit to her family doesn’t go as smoothly as she hopes when she brings home her new boyfriend, Zach, Black Falcon’s lead guitarist. She soon discovers that father doesn’t always know best when it comes to matters of the heart.  When Zach meets Aubrey’s family, he’s immediately faced with his deepest fear: The love he so desperately wants, he doesn’t deserve. The Judge makes no attempt to hide his disdain for Zach, and will stop at nothing to keep him away from his daughter. But an unexpected twist turns everyone’s plans upside down and no one’s world will ever be the same.   Outside forces attempting to pull them apart are strong and it’s going to take every bit of Zach and Aubrey’s love for one another to withstand the fall-out. Soon, they discover making love last is harder than finding it to begin with and sometimes you pay the ultimate price for true love.

   ***Note from author: This novella follows Riff and Aubrey’s story from ROCK MY BED.***

Rock My World on Goodreads

Review:

Rock My World is a very sexy entry in the Black Falcon series! It is a fairly quick and very entertaining read. The story follows Aubrey and Zach (Riff’s “real” name), as they return to Aubrey’s home to meet with her father over a legal matter. Except that Aubrey hasn’t told her parents she was bringing home her tattooed, rocker boyfriend! The awkward situation with Aubrey’s very conservative parents only adds to Zach’s insecurities, as he struggles to convince himself that he is good enough for Aubrey.

Much drama and hot sex then ensues in this very steamy novella. Will Zach and Aubrey let outside influences drive them apart? Will Aubrey cave in to her conservative parents and leave Zach? Everything comes to a very satisfying conclusion in this story. As usual, Michelle Valentine really delivers a catchy plot with very memorable characters and some scorching hot scenes.

I love Aubrey and Zach. Rock My World is a great entry in the Black Falcon series, and I’m looking forward to reading Trip’s story next, in Rock the Beat!

Rock My Bed by Michelle A. Valentine

April 25, 2013

Everything always seems to fall into place for twenty-four year-old Aubrey Jenson, except for when it comes to her luck with men. Bad boys
always draw her in and crush her heart, and Black Falcon’s lead
guitarist, Riff, is no exception. After sharing a few wild nights
together, she leaves him behind; knowing a guy like Riff isn’t the
relationship type, merely just a play thing.

When she returns to New York, she tries to get the passion she felt in
Riff’s arms out of her head by dating Isaac, a successful
representative at Center Stage Marketing. Just when she thinks she’s
forgotten Riff, she’s forced to see him again when her best friend,
Lanie, ropes her into being a bridesmaid for her upcoming wedding to
Black Falcon front man, Noel.

Sparks fly instantly between Aubrey and Riff when they’re forced to
reunite, and suddenly she finds herself caught between the man that’s
good for her and the one who completely rocks her in every way.

**New Adult Romance–Book 2 in the Black Falcon series. This book can
be read without reading book one.**

Review:

So, Michelle has done it again! I LOVED this book!! I will admit going
in that I had an attachment to Lanie and Noel, but Michelle has written
two great characters in Riff and Aubrey and I absolutely fell in love
with them. I also loved that Michelle gives us Riff’s POV concerning
his relationship with Noel.

As expected from Michelle Valentine, the sex scenes are TOTALLY hot
and there is a wonderful plotline. Michelle also takes the time to
fully develop the all of the other characters in the book.

Riff is far from perfect and it is a tribute to Michelle’s writing
that I absolutely fell in love with his character.

Okay, so I have to say that you can certainly read this book without
first reading both Rock the Heart and Rock the Band. They are all
stand-alone books, but the first two are AWESOME and you should read
them to get a sense of the characters in Rock My Bed.

Grab Rock My Bed and enjoy the ride!

Rock My Bed by Michelle A. Valentine – Interview, Excerpt & Giveaway

April 20, 2013

Release date: 4/22/2013

Synopsis:
Everything always seems to fall into place for twenty-four year-old Aubrey Jenson, except for when it comes to her luck with men. Bad boys always draw her in and crush her heart, and Black Falcon’s lead guitarist, Riff, is no exception. After sharing a few wild nights together, she leaves him behind; knowing a guy like Riff isn’t the relationship type, merely just a play thing.

When she returns to New York, she tries to get the passion she felt in Riff’s arms out of her head by dating Isaac, a successful representative at Center Stage Marketing. Just when she thinks she’s forgotten Riff, she’s forced to see him again when her best friend, Lanie, ropes her into being a bridesmaid for her upcoming wedding to Black Falcon front man, Noel.

Sparks fly instantly between Aubrey and Riff when they’re forced to reunite, and suddenly she finds herself caught between the man that’s good for her and the one who completely rocks her in every way.

**New Adult Romance–Book 2 in the Black Falcon series. This book can be read without reading book one.**

Excerpt:
I stare at Riff’s message, and the thought occurs to me that I can not only get
insider information from Lanie to help her out secretly with the ad, but I may have just
won myself a new connection in the form of a sexy, tattooed rocker.
I hit reply and begin to type.
Riff,
I’m amazed and flattered you remember me. It’s nice to know the golden ticket
still stands. I am kind of curious as to what it grants me admission to?
Aubrey
I hit send before I have a chance to chicken out. Since my last break up, I swore off the bad boy type, but I can’t help but to still be attracted to them. When I saw my mother over the weekend back in Texas, she went on and on about how at twenty-four she was done with college, settled down with my father, and was ready to start her
family. She just can’t understand that I’m not ready to settle down, or feel that I have to.
I’m still young, with my entire life ahead of me. Twenty-four isn’t old by any stretch of the means. What’s wrong with messing around with a guy for fun every now and then? It’s not like this thing between Riff and I will ever turn into a relationship anyway. My mom would have a heart attack if I brought someone like him home to meet
her. She would like nothing more than for me to find a nice, boring man like Isaac and pop out a few heathens. I shudder at the thought. Not that there’s anything wrong with Isaac, but I just know me. He would bore me to tears, and the organization issues he has would drive me
insane. I shake my head. The last thing I need to be thinking about right now is men, especially my boss. I’ve got bigger problems than that—namely, how and if I can break the news to Lanie about what’s going on in the dirty underworld of Center Stage Marketing.

Interview with Michelle:

1. Are any of the characters or plot lines from the Black Falcon series based on anyone or anything your real life?

My husband is a cocky, smartass, I do draw some inspiration for the guys from him.

2. What originally inspired you to write your Black Falcon books?

I love hard rock music. Everything about it pulls me in. The culture is unlike anything else, which is why I chose to write about it.

3. Have you always loved music? Who are your favorite bands or musicians, and what is your favorite genre of music?

I have always been into music. I remember jammin’ out to Madonna on my Rainbow Bright tape player and listening to Queen with my brothers. Music is a huge part of who I am. I’m a hard rock fan to the core and love bands like Five Finger Death Punch, Volbeat, All That Remains, Bullet For My Valentine…I could just keep going.

4. Do you listen to music while you write? If so, what did you listen to while writing Rock My Bed?

I did listen to music. I have a list to long to name as the books playlist. I turned that file on in Spotify and wrote to it every time.

5. Will we see more rockers in your writing future?

There might be more rockers books down the line. 😉

6. When do you carve out time to write, and do you have a daily scheduled writing time?

I write whenever I can, usually after everyone else in my house is asleep.

7. Will we see more paranormal books?

There will be more paranormal, along with some Sci-Fi.

8. What are 5 things that your readers don’t know about you?

Five things…I love crazy people. The louder, the better. They always crack me up. I’m addicted to A1 sauce. I hate waking up early. I don’t know my own personal drinking limits and tend to exceed it every time. I still love to watch Disney movies.

Thank you Michelle! You rock!
