#SummerRead - Sci Fi Romance

Looking for something different to read?

How about:

- A post apocalyptic romance.

- A hero who has special prosthetic, armed with a deadly blade. The guy is is direct, down and dirty.

- The heroine Lidia is a doctor

- Desert sailing ships and adventure.

- Gritty sex.

"If you're looking for a fast entertaining read that takes you out of the everyday and into the future, Desert Blade is it. I LOVED the hero Derek - a strong, protective warrior who never loses his compassion despite the insanity of the world around him. The heroine Lidia is a doctor who adapts herself well to an uncertain future, but never gives up her values or vow to help those in need." - Julie Rowe

Near-Future, Science Fiction Romance, Post-Apocalyptic 

In the post-apocalyptic Midwest, now a ravaged dust bowl, former
guardsman Derek Covington must find help for a sick boy. With nothing
but memories of all he lost, Derek crosses the desert alone in search
of the doctor who saved his own life ten years ago. Drifter gangs who
loot and pillage don't dare come near, for Derek has a formidable
weapon: a prosthetic arm with a deadly blade.

For a decade, Dr. Lidia Sullivan has fantasized about the handsome
guardsman who'd been in her care. And now she can't deny his dangerous
request. But as they make the treacherous journey back to Old St.
Louis, they must contend with much more than fierce desert winds and
their unthinkable attraction. A fearless gang has spotted Lidia—a
rare woman—and will fight Derek to the death to get her. And though
he risks his life to save her for the sake of the child who needs her,
she fears there's one thing Derek will never risk: his heart.

Publisher's Weekly calls Desert Blade "a sweet romance in the burning
wreck of a postapocalyptic United States" .

#SummerReadRecomendation - Cherry Tree Harbor series

Summer reading is always my happy place.

 I love everything my writer pal, Melanie Harlow Author creates. Melanie is a Michigan author, like myself, and her settings are in my favorite areas of the state. Small towns and hot heroes are my weakness. Add in wineries and I'm there! Her descriptions of both locations and characters are superb, making the reader feel like they are standing in the scene.

I began reading the Cloverleigh Farm Series, then ate up the Bellamy Creek Series. LOVE!

Those of you who know I am a Book Dragon, can expect to see plenty of her books in my hoard. The Cherry Tree Harbor books are delicious. Pick up your copies and meet those hotties.

Summer Book Recommendation

Pippa Grant is one of my favorite authors and have read everything she's written. I found one of my old banners from when Real Fake Love was released. It's summertime and baseball is in full swing. If you haven't read this one yet, you definitely should. This romcom is a must for summer reading.

BLURB

If people have polar opposites, Luca Rossi is mine.

His butt is in the baseball hall of fame. Mine’s comfortably seated in the hall of lame.

When he’s not snagging fly balls out in center field, he’s modeling in shampoo commercials. I once jammed my own finger while stirring cookie dough, and sometimes I forget shampoo is a thing.

He’s a total cynic when it comes to love.

I make a living writing love stories.

But after my latest broken engagement (no, I don’t want to talk about how many times that’s happened), it’s clear he’s exactly the man I need.

If anyone can teach me to be the opposite of me, it’s him.

The first thing I want him to teach me?

How to not fall in love.

And as luck would have it, he’s in desperate need of a fake girlfriend to get a meddling grandmother off his back.

We couldn’t be more perfect together, because the last thing Luca Rossi will ever be is the next man to leave me at the altar.

Or will he?

 

Real Fake Love is a line drive straight to the heart featuring a grumpy athlete, a jilted bride, a fake relationship, and the world’s laziest cat. It stands alone and comes complete with sibling rivalry, the world’s most awkward shower scene, and a sweetly satisfying happily ever after.
