They say it becomes second nature at some point, but the fact is about fifteen percent of the body I was born with is missing, which isn’t that easy to adjust to. Every time I catch a glimpse of myself coming out of the shower, I’m still startled at my own reflection. This mental image I have of my former intact body persists, and I’m shocked each time to find part of it gone. Even in my dreams, I still have my right leg.

RELEASE BLITZ - CONTEMPORARY SUSPENSE - A DANGEROUS MAN (Appalachian STAR, #8) by Deanndra Hall

 

A Dangerous Man
Appalachian Star, #8 
(Special Forces Operation Alpha)
by Deanndra Hall 
Release Date: September 10th 2024 
Genre: Romantic Suspense 

She’s headstrong and independent. He’s determined and dangerous. Is their love a disaster … or their salvation?

Bear

Relentless.

I’m a murderer, and I own that. I’ve paid my debt to society, but what I did is a stain on my soul that will leave me forever unworthy of anything good. So I’m surprised when a couple of nights with FBI Agent Sela Baldwin when she’s here at the farm guarding Natalie leaves me longing for more time with her. She’s stuck in rehab from her injuries and mad as a hornet, but my offer for her to live with me and explore our relationship is surprisingly well-received. We settle in, only to find that the cartel still has a mark on Sela and Natalie, and it’ll take all of my friends from App STAR, Citadel Security, and the Eagle Point Search and Rescue teams to keep them safe—if Sela will just cooperate. I swear, that woman is her own worst enemy!

SELA

Relentless.

They might call him Bear, but he’s a wildcat in the sack. I think about those hands and that body constantly while I’m trapped in the rehab facility, planning my escape and furious that the bureau doesn’t think I can do my job. I don’t connect with people emotionally, but when I discover he’s been in an accident, I’m terrified. As soon as he asks me to move out to the farm with him, I realize being on the disabled list will give us time to maybe have an actual relationship. His openness and honesty give me hope, and I’m surprised at myself and how fast I start to trust him and care for him. There’s just one problem. The cartel is still after Natalie and me, and no matter what Bear says, I’ve never trusted a man to take care of me. Is my Dangerous Man dangerous enough to get the job done, or will I have to do it myself?

Come to the hills and hollers of eastern Kentucky and get acquainted with eight of the most determined men you’ll ever meet in the Appalachian STAR series.

He stood shirtless in front of her in all his perfection.

Her hands longed to run down his chest and rest on his sides as she caressed the muscles bulging from his abs. She stepped back, apologizing, “Sorry, I didn’t hear you get out of the shower.”

Saint stepped toward her, causing her pulse to race as his hand came out and his fingers pulled at the opening of her wrap. His thumb ran down her satin nightie as he stared at the stain.

“You’re wet,” he said quietly.

Bryanna swallowed as her gaze roamed from his thick chest to his face. She licked her lips and couldn’t help but wonder how he tasted if she ran her tongue along his shoulder and up his neck.

“I spilled my drink when you knocked. I typically don’t get visitors this late at night,” she whispered as she glanced in Miya’s direction.

Saint fingered the delicate lace along her wrap while holding her gaze, making her tremble. “I ruined your nightgown. You need to take it off.”

“Ugh…” Bryanna shook her head. Men like Saint knew how to seduce a woman out of her panties in a flash. She refused to become yet another notch on his hypothetical bedpost. Thinking he probably used Miya to soften her up, she stepped away.

“I’ll change and come back down. There’re blankets in the basket over there if you’re cold.” She nodded to the foot of the loveseat and kept her gaze from his shirtless form.

“I’m not cold. In fact, I run hot.” Saint sat on the couch and placed an arm over the back as he settled in to wait for her.

I bet you do. Turning, she gulped and climbed the stairs. Like Miya, her tummy ached, but for an entirely different reason.

RELEASE BLITZ - CONTEMPORARY - HIGH FREQUENCY (HMT 2G, #1) by Freya Barker

Release Date: August 5th 2024 
Genre: Romantic Suspense 

 

“What do you need me to do?” I offer. Next thing I know, my arms open automatically when she shoves the baby at me. “Take her.” Ama disappears inside before my brain can come up with an objection. Any baby experience I have began and ended with Carmi, Sully’s daughter, and Fletch’s son, Hunter, and that was twelve or thirteen years ago. It’s not that I don’t like babies, because I do, but the fact this is Sloane’s baby is making it a little awkward. Still, I settle her a little better in the crook of my arm.

Then I hear the creak of the rocking chair and Thomas’s raspy chuckle and look up. The old fart clearly thinks this is funny. “You should see the look on your face,” he points out as he continues to rock his chair. “I’m guessing young Sloane becoming a parent was a surprise to you as well?”  “Yes,” I grumble, just as a little hand slaps against my chin and catches on the short hairs of my beard. I drop my eyes to Sloane’s baby, who has her little face turned toward me. I don’t know who the dark hair belongs to, but those blue eyes are unmistakably her mother’s. “Aspen. That’s her name,” Thomas shares. “Pretty little thing, ain’t she?” She is, especially when her little mouth spreads in a wide, toothless smile. “You look good holdin’ that baby,” he continues. “Too bad you let her momma slip away, or that wee one could’a been yours.” Fuck. That stings. Should’ve known the old man wouldn’t hesitate to poke his finger in the sore spot. “I’m not the one who left.” The bitter comment slips out before I can check it. “No, you weren’t. You’re just the one who let her walk.” Agitated, I get to my feet, shifting the baby to my shoulder as I start to pace the porch. “It wasn’t that simple.” “It never is, son. It never is.”

A Tormented  Man
Appalachian STAR, #6 
by Deanndra Hall 
Release Date: May 14th 2024 
Genre: Romantic Suspense 

Their joy and passion are interrupted by sheer terror …

PADDY

Restored.

When you serve time for a death that destroyed you, it's hard to bounce back. My best friend was my rock, my ride or die. And sadly, his death was more than I can take.

Now, out of the slammer and trying to get my life back on track, I'm ready for something more—something new—and a friend of mine has a solution, one that may just get me out of my funk. Introducing me to a beautiful, headstrong, and intelligent woman with a penchant to submit is the lifesaver I've been looking for all along.

NATALIE

Restored.

I have to be careful. As a federal judge, all eyes are on me to make the right choices regarding the fate of those convicted of crimes. But when I’m off the bench, all I want is to sit back, have someone else make decisions, and let them control the narrative. Meeting an ex-convict with everything I'm looking for in and out of the bedroom wasn't on my bucket list, but here we are. And now, I want nothing more than this man and his dominance.

The big case I’ve been hoping for brings danger, and when someone threatens my life and kidnaps me, all hands are on deck to save me. The FBI and the Appalachian STAR team are determined to find me, but there's only one person I trust enough to rescue me—the tormented man who holds my heart.

Come to the hills and hollers of eastern Kentucky and get acquainted with eight of the most determined men you’ll ever meet in the Appalachian STAR series.

RELEASE BLITZ - CONTEMPORARY - A FURIOUS MAN (Appalachian Star, #5) by Deanndra Hall

 A Furious Man
Appalachian Star, #5 
by Deanndra Hall 
Release Date: March 12th 2024 
Genre: Romantic Suspense 

A horrific past can threaten the future …

REBOOT

Reluctance.

They say chivalry is dead, and I had to learn that truth the hard way. Helping when you're not wanted doesn't play out the way you think. Sometimes, more damage comes with it. So, I lay low and try not to get involved. Do my job, and that's all.

As an Appalachian STAR EMT, I've seen my fair share of atrocities and destruction, but none so horrendous as the whirlwind of chaos that one woman brings into play. Not only does she take a tumble on the docks, but then, she more than destroys every meal she attempts to serve where she waits tables. Despite her clumsy nature and apologetic demeanor, everything about this woman intrigues me. And now, I'm bound and determined to get closer to her.

MAVIS

Reluctance.

My life is in shambles, a series of one mishap or misstep after another. After escaping my traumatic childhood and finding a new life, I thought everything would be easy from here on out. I was wrong. I'm on edge, careful and cautious, jumpy and unnerved.

When the handsome EMT helps me find employment more suitable for me, I slowly begin to let down my guard, not truly ready to let a stranger into my life—or into my heart. But after my past comes barreling back, threatening to hurt others just as they hurt me, I snap.

They're not touching one more innocent child. Not while I'm alive. My plan has flaws. But thankfully, I have a rugged and strong Furious Man on my side.

 The Rock Point Collection 
by Freya Barker
Release Date: March 4th 2024
Genre: Romantic Suspense 

The Rock Point series chronicles the stories of each of the agents of the La Plata County FBI office. These books will take you on a wild ride of romance, danger, passion, and betrayal.  Durango, Colorado has never been more adventurous and exciting.

Keeping 6

When Special Agent Damian Gomez walks into the small Books and Brew store looking for coffee, he doesn’t expect to find Kerry Emerson manning the espresso machine. She seems equally surprised but that quickly turns to anger when the annoyingly handsome FBI agent seems to have her confused for a criminal. 

***

Cabin 12

EMT Bella Greene thinks Special Agent Jasper Greene is a narcissistic hotshot, and he, in turn, believes her to be a high maintenance snob. But the moment the first cop is gunned down, they’re forced to work side by side and amid corruption and murder, they quickly discover how misleading first impressions can be.

***

HWY 550

Investigating a string of robberies places Special Agent Luna Roosberg undercover and on the back of Arrow’s Edge MC President Ouray’s bike. He does not have much choice because with pressure both in- and outside the club mounting, he no longer knows who to trust. Except perhaps the pretty agent who is shaking up his life—and stirring his blood.

***

10-CODE

Single mom, Marya Berger does not want to be attracted to Special Agent Dylan Barnes. Not only is he several years her junior, but he is also the father of one of the boys on her son’s soccer team. But when the disappearance of a child hits a little too close to home, she finds herself responding to the agent’s need to protect her and her boys.
