SALE BLITZ - METAMORPHOSIS BY STEPAHNIE WALLS




Title: Metamorphosis
 
Series: Siren Songs #1
Author: Stephie Walls
 Release Date: September 30, 2014


Synopsis

Cameron Pierce is an overachiever—CEO of Regional Bank, force to be reckoned with in the Boardroom, and beautiful to boot. At 24, an earth-shattering event set her life goals. But is she fulfilled? Idolized by those around her she’s—kind, forceful, intelligent, driven, and successful. Cam is surrounded by close friends and consumed by her career.

At first glance, Dax Cooper appears to be a playboy—carefree, cocky, arrogant, and devoid of intelligent thought but sexy with a face and a body that drive women crazy. Cameron believes in this façade when he continually manages to walk right past her gatekeeper with constant interruptions. He is everything she doesn’t like in a male. Unlike Cam, Dax has walked away from a talent and a life that had been his passion in exchange for family and friends. Unmotivated by money and a career, he too is embarking on change.

Tragedy strikes Cameron for the second time in her life. Attacked by a stranger, in an instant, her life, her psyche, and the essence of her being appear to be permanently scarred at best. If she survives the physical injuries, will she survive the mental trauma?

Metamorphosis is the story of a woman’s struggle to regain her confidence and repair her shattered life following a random, brutal attack. With the help of the man she had pushed away, she chooses the path that she will follow for the rest of her life. She undergoes a metamorphosis—not by choice but by the will to survive.

(Each novel in this series can be read as a stand-alone with no cliffhangers.)

  **Warning: This book contains sexual content and language that is not appropriate for audiences under eighteen years of age.**

I have a serious addiction to anything Coach and would live on Starbucks if I could get away with it.  If you follow me on Facebook you'll also find that I'm slightly enamored with Charlie Hunnam.  I'm also a tad obsessed  with tattoos and have thirteen scattered on my canvas.  I'm an avid reader (literary whore to be more precise) averaging around 300 novels a  year and wish I had time to read more.

I currently work full-time in the Greenville area and fill my "extra" time (haha) with reading anything I can get my hands on and writing contemporary romance novels with a hint of erotica.  This has been a dream of mine for years and I couldn't have done it without the support of my husband and BFF Tracy who both pushed me to keep going when I didn't have the confidence  or the patience.

REVIEW - YOU LOVED ME AT MY WEAKEST BY EVIE HARPER










REVIEW
 
It was my first book from author Evie Harper, and am I glad I got to read it.  It is a very difficult story in the sense that our heroine, Emmy, goes through so much, and also because is a thing that really happens to a lot of people.  Story starts Emmy abducted and sold into sex slavery.  I am not giving anything away because I want you guys to experience it as I did, as blank slate.  I will tell you this is a beautiful love story, one we would only dream of, our hero, Kanye fighting with all his might against a woman that thinks she isn't worth another look her way, and he has set his mind on getting in her head that she does, and that he doesn't care what she has gone through.  If that doesn't sell you the story I will tell you what will.  Kanye is hot, to die for, and boy is he alpha and domineering, and the sex oooh!!! is of the charts hot and steamy.
 
Evie Harper, I have to say it was an unexpected surprise, this one, and you have gain a fan, I enjoyed the story, as well as suffered it, I wanted to murder people, and the conclusion you guys can draw from this is that not every writer is able to make you feel so strongly about with just words, and that is what make this woman a great writer.  You have me hooked, I will read You Loved Me At My Darkest - Jake and Lily's story and will certainly say that one of my most anticipated books for 2015 will be You Loved Me At My Ugliest.
