This whole book blog thing allows me to get my eyeballs on some books before they make their big splash. This is one of those books and I’m please to share with you the cover reveal for an exciting new book, coming out in April. I know, such a tease, right?!!? As the time gets closer I’ll remind you guys about this book but for now, check out this beautiful cover…
Unbeautifully Loved (Unbeautiful Life # 1) by Emma Grayson
On the run from her dark and painful past, Lexie Todd is finally forced by her best friend Mollie into settling into a new place for the first time in months. Having been hurt in more ways than one in the past, the last thing Lexie is expecting or wanting is to meet someone as persistent and annoying but incredibly gorgeous as Lukas Gunn.When an incident leaves Lexie banged up and rattled, Lukas knows there’s more to her than meets the eye as something is haunting her to the core making him nothing but determined to make her his and protect her from whatever it is that casts the dark painful shadow behind her eyes.But when her past shows up and pulls Lexie back into the nightmare she already once escaped while leaving her closest loved ones in danger it’s up to Lukas to save her from her darkest nightmare relived.Will Lukas be able to save Lexie? Or will Lexie succumb only having known what it’s like to be Unbeautifully Loved?
Like I mentioned earlier I just found this book on Goodreads this morning and added it to my list. The descriptions sounds “amazingballs”. So I am really looking forward to reading this.
I just signed up to get an ARC of this one so I’ll let you in on the amazeballs-ness as soon as I can!
Interesting how some covers are ‘Just Right” and yet others are….yeah…wrong!
Take Chocolate Lovers Series – Ms Sevic, for example, who would have thought that a picture of the top of a cupcake or some lollies would be so apt? The chocolate dipped strawberry fair enough but cup cakes@! Acutually, the cup cakes may have been better than bottles on the front of ‘Wild Man’- KA ( My second Fav KA Book!)
I think the cover is sooo important. I know I shouldn’t but totally judge a book by its cover. I’m excited to see how KA’s books are going to look now that she’s signed on with the big leagues. And stop it Teena, did I know that Wild Man is your second fave KA book? Hot damn I love me some grumpy sexy Brock and I love his story! LOVE IT!! What’s your first fave KA?
Yeah I wait to see what the marketing team comes up with either!
Ok so KA Favs go like this
1. RC Regret – Double H, just they way he interacts with Sadie(and her coping mechanisms) and of course with Buddy and Ralphie. Not all Bad Ass, Hot Guys can deal well with gay couples. Our Sadie, she just make me want to hug her, Fairy Princess or not, she needs lots a love and empathy!
2.Wild Man – Brock – Consummate protector, whats not to love? Tess – totally clueless about her beauty and can’t Initiate a play……LOVE IT!
3. Knight – I know he sells ass(Linnicks biggest beef!) but I dont give a shit. Maybe its the way he dominates, protects but allows Anya to grow and flourish. Dont know but I keep going back to it
Those three are the ‘goto’ books for me…you?
oh my well, those are some tasty delights for sure. I’m with you with RC Regret…Double H and Sadie are absolutely amazing but I’m a Mace girl…RC Reckoning…first off when he puts it out there with Jet I’m pretty sure my panties exploded and then when Stella describes Mace, “Mace with the jade green eyes. Mace with the thick dark hair. Mace with the fantastic bod. Mace with the strong, masculine long-fingered hands that could run so light across your skin you could almost hear them whisper” (his touch runs so light you could almost hear it whisper…are you kidding me with that?!!? sexiest, line, ever!! panties gone baby!!) He’s so broken and broody, it feels like a gift when he smiles – I think that’s why I like Brock so much too…their smiles don’t come easy so when you get one, it’s special. And I’m such a sucker for tall, dark and broken…Mace has seen some shit. And Mace is tall. I know people don’t love Stella but how can I hate on her, she’s Mace’s girl so she must be good. I think Mitch from Law Man is probably the most classically handsome of that foursome but Brock’s edge does me in every single time.
And I know it’s pervy but Jasper from Golden Trail flips my switch, too – I want that man-boy to hurry up and get legal!! He’s got all sorts of sexy potential!
The funny thing is, My Guy is one of the happiest guys you’ll ever meet, he’s very quick with a smile and when they reach his eyes, it lights up a room. Maybe since the broody thing is so opposite of what I have, I find it attractive and mysterious.
Yeah its funny isn’t? Just about ALL my FFs are dark, Ethan Blackstone, Double H, Giddeon Cross…I think Knight only blond one on it!
So where is the Cougar List Girl!? Is jasper on it!?
My Hubby same, he is funny bugger – makes me laugh sooo much. He grins alot but he has a smile just for me, kid you not, when I walk in the door or he spots me across the shopping centre he has this smile. I tell you it stops my heart. It did 25yrs ago and still does.
Yeah, I know I’m sad bitch but its true! See he is away on business so I am extra sappy.
yep, I think a Cougar list must be on tap for tomorrow’s activities…gonna make that happen! Jasper is getting the top spot!!
You are not a sad bitch…just happy. My Guy gives me that smile too, it’s the same one he gave me that morning after the first time and it hits me just as hard today as it did over 20 years ago…I know I’m a lucky woman to be the only one that gets that smile. Forget it, when My Guy is away I’m all sorts of sappy!
OMG! I am so glad I came back to read these comments, the two of you are so adorable on how you have been going on about your guys. Makes me very hopeful that the stuff we read can be real life (insert big ass grin here). If I could chyme in about KA faves…I love all her heros because they are so ALPHA it is ridiculous, I feel bad for picking a favourite. For the rock chicks series I have to say Eddie, Vance and Mace. Something about Vance is so mysterious. Then I have to go with Hawk and Tack. Tack killed me with the hand on the neck, checking the pulse thingy. Sampson Cooper (Heaven and Hell 1) and Creed. Can I get an AMEN peeps! A list of pure HAWTNESS (I really like this word.
)
Amen…but keep your paws off Mace – I’ll cut a bitch, that man is mine. Smooches…love ya’ mean it.
See Lola Im glad you jumped on this ‘chat’. I had totally forgotten the pulse ‘Thingy’ with Tack, now that was something!
You know what I love the most about KA and the way she develops her characters?…..they are all different, individual and layered(thanks Shrek!). That goes both for the men and the women. I cant WAIT to meet Raid!
don’t tell anyone but Raid is on my Kindle as I type…what the hell am I doing on this computer…I’ve got some Raid reading to do!!
Very true, very layered men. The women are matched up perfectly too. Swoon I can’t wait for Raid either!
I can’t wait for Raid either…
OOOOH you are such a tease! I will be the crack whore in the corner waiting for my next KA fix!
SHIT Girl! I have just wandered back to take another peak at this amazing cover again and what do I read but that you have got RAID….WTF! I am SOOOO jealous! I have read the working chapters twice! Hanna I already love and Raid has a really good vibe about him! I love KAs retelling of how Raid popped into her head!
I am also PISSED cause our OS trip had been pushed back and I am going to be away from my normal WiFi access for the week ‘Raid’ will be released!!
I am stressing here…may be I can pop into a local McDonalds grab a coffee and download on the 28th. Phew, ( big sigh) what a relief! I thought I was going to have to wait until I got back to Australia!
Disaster Averted!
Oh and Mace is all yours…..to broody for moi!
I KNOW, RIGHT!!! Talk about coming to my rescue…KA saves the day! Yes, get yourself to a McDonald’s for the wifi…and Raid!!!
Oh and I’m totally licking my lips over reading Mace’s name, that’s all it takes for me with that one!
Forgot to mention that I popped over to Yr Girl Carmels’ – Our Fifth House site…….LOVED it!
We are nearly to the end of stripping(to a shell) our 1940s cottage and extending it into a four bed house. I now need to turn a house into a home again….great timing…..thinkn’ I will be a regular to ‘ Our Fifth House’!!
Yay!!! Carmel is awesome! Did you see the headboard she made out of a door and some twine?!!? Crazy. She has the best ideas and none of them cost a fortune. How beautiful is her kitchen?!!? Love me some Carmel…I’m certain you’ll get lots of ideas from her for your remodel.
I saw Unbeautifully and thought it was Ripper and Danny’s story (Madeline Sheehan) Obsessed much? LOL
I have added this to my TBR list thank you very much
Hmmm, my favorite KA….Tate will always top my list, with a special place in my lusty heart, as he was my KA “first”.
As for the Cougar List….Finley Holiday tops that one for me. They didn’t make guys like him when I was in high school!!!!
Then there’s Creed and Callum. Just YUM!Q
Charms…KA can write a hero like nobody’s business, no?!!?
