Social Butterfly PR Presents: The Backup Plan by Jill Shalvis; #ReleaseBlitz, #NowAvailable, #OutNow, #TBR, #Live

The Back Up Plan, an all-new second chance standalone romance in the heartwarming Sunrise Cove series from New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis is now available!

New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis returns to Sunrise Cove with a heartwarming tale of three people who are bought together when they’re bequeathed an old Wild West inn that has the potential to pull their lives apart, but instead turns into the gift of a lifetime.

  When Alice receives a call about an unexpected windfall, she’s stunned to learn the gift is a falling-apart-at-the-seams old Wild West B&B she once considered home—and she’s inherited it along with two strangers. Except they weren’t always strangers. Once upon a time, they were friends. One is her ex-BFF Lauren. The other is Knox, the only guy to ever break her heart, all while never even knowing she existed.

  It turns out their lives are unknowingly entangled because they once separately helped the same woman without expecting anything in return. Years later, Alice, Lauren, and Knox are broken in their own way, with their own history—and secrets— causing them to start out on the wrong foot with each other. But according to the will, they must renovate and be partners in the inn for one year or else lose their inheritance.

  Stuck together, they make a list of rules to keep the peace—rules that end up doing the opposite, but by some miracle they find what they didn’t even know they were looking for—acceptance, true friendship, and in a case (or two!), true love.

An unexpected inheritance might be the gift of a lifetime.

Wrapped Up In You 

by Jill Shalvis

Series: Heartbreaker Bay

Genre: Adult, Contemporary Romance

Publisher: Avon Books

Publication Date: September 24, 2019

It’s love. Trust me.

After a lifetime on the move, Ivy Snow is an expert in all things temporary—schools, friends, and way too many Mr. Wrongs. Now that she owns a successful taco truck in San Francisco and an apartment to call home, Ivy’s reinvented life is on solid ground. And she’s guarded against anything that can rock it. Like the realities of a past she’s worked hard to cover up. And especially Kel O’Donnell. Too hot not to set off alarms, he screams temporary. If only his whispers weren’t so delightfully naughty and irresistible.

Kel, an Idaho sheriff and ranch owner, is on vacay, but Ivy’s a spicy reason to give his short-term plans a second thought. Best of all, she’s a tonic for his untrusting heart, burned once and still in repair. But when Ivy’s past intrudes on a perfect romance, Kel fears that everything she’s told him has been a perfect lie. Now, if only Ivy’s willing to share, Kel will fight for a true love story.

Excerpt:

“I’m the law.”

“The law can be dirty,” she said.

“True.” He let a teasing smile come into his voice. “And I can be very dirty, but only off duty, and only if you ask real nice.”

She laughed out loud at that, the sound both soft and musical. “Okay, I’ll give this to you—you’re funny. And maybe also sexy as hell, but this isn’t happening.”

Sexy as hell? He’d take that any day of the week. “We’re just talking.”

“Uh huh,” she said dryly. “But when men talk, they think they’re flirting, and to them flirting leads to everything else, which is always a disappointment. And if I wanted to be disappointed,” she said, “I could just go inside and watch The Bachelor.”

“How do you know I’d disappoint?”

“You’re a man, aren’t you?”

Heiress Gone Wild

by Laura Lee Guhrke

Series: Dear Lady Truelove Series 

(All Novels Are Standalone)

Genre: Adult, Historical Romance

Publisher: Avon Books

Publication Date: September 24, 2019

Dear Lady Truelove,

My ward is driving me crazy. I have to marry her off and get her out of my life. There’s just one problem…

When Jonathan Deverill promised a dying friend he’d be guardian to the man’s daughter, he envisioned a girl in pigtails and pinafores, a child he could leave behind in some finishing school. Problem is, his ward is actually a fully-grown, defiant beauty whose longing for romance threatens to make his guardianship a living hell.

New York heiress Marjorie McGann wants a London season and a titled husband who can help her spend the Yankee millions she’s inherited, and she thinks her new British guardian is the perfect person to help her find him. But Jonathan has no intention of letting his friend’s fortune be squandered. Under his watchful, protective eye, Marjorie finds romance hard to come by . . . until one fateful night when her own guardian’s devastating kisses makes her wonder if the greatest romance of all might be right in front of her.

Excerpt:

“Mr. Deverill?”

Jonathan turned from the window, but instead of the pig-tailed schoolgirl he’d expected to find, he saw a woman of about twenty standing in the doorway, a woman of such remarkable beauty that he sucked in a startled breath.

“Yes,” he answered. “I am Jonathan Deverill. But I think there has been some mistake. I have come to see Miss Marjorie McGann.”

“So you did,” she agreed, laughing. “And here I am.”

On his deathbed, Billy had told Jonathan of Marjorie’s existence for the first time, begging his partner to protect and look after his little girl. But as Jonathan’s gaze left her stunning face and traveled down over the generous curves of her figure, he appreciated in chagrin that Marjorie McGann was not, in any way, shape or form, a little girl.

“Hell,” he muttered, his ladylike surroundings forgotten, his tongue lapsing into the crude language of the Western mining towns and saloons he’d left behind. “God damn and holy hell.”

Publication Date: May 21, 2019

York Times bestselling author Lori Wilde’s series set in Cupid, TX continues as one free-wheeling cowboy discovers he has a child—and a chance at real love with the last woman he expected.

What would it take to tame a wild cowboy?

One minute, Rhett Lockhart is a love ‘em and leave ‘em bull rider with a slow, sexy smile, a swagger, and not a care in the world.

But from the first moment he gazes into his daughter’s eyes, he knows the moment has come to say ‘no’ to no-strings. It’s time to grow up.

Standing in his way is the baby’s foster mother, Tara Alzate, who doesn’t quite believe Rhett is ready to change his ways. Still, she’s not not immune to his considerable charms. So when he proposes a marriage of convenience and shared custody, against her better judgement, she says “I do.” Can Tara tame this wild cowboy and make her own, long-buried dreams come true?

Excerpt:

“Rhett, you may now kiss your bride.” Here it was. The moment Tara had been dreading since she’d cooked up this farcical idea. She’d made him promise to dole out nothing by a mere hint of a kiss, the barest brushing, the smallest increment of lip touching that they could get away with. He’d promised. She trusted him. He leaned in. She braced herself, locking her knees. Hang on. It’ll be over in an instant. His head dipped. She tipped her chin up. Rhett’s mouth came down on hers and for a second, he was playing by the rules and she sighed with relief, and thought, wow, this is nice . . .But the thought was premature. Her lips parted involuntarily, and she closed her eyes and sank against him. Well and completely lost.

About the Book:

Self-made man Aidan Iverson has seen more closed doors in his thirty years than he’s ever cared to count. As a member of the elite Duke’s Den, he has all the money he could possibly need but the one thing he can’t purchase is true power. If roguish Aidan can’t buy his way into society’s hallowed halls, he’ll resort to a more extreme measure: marriage.

Brought up to be a proper lady, the only thing Diana Ashby desires is to be left alone to the creation of her own devices. But when her dreams are crushed, she must find another way to secure the future of her invention. Knowing his desire to enter her world, Diana strikes a deal to arrange Aidan’s marriage to the perfect lady—as long as that lady isn’t her. She doesn’t need any distractions from her work, particularly of the sinfully handsome variety.

As Diana and Aidan set out to find him an aristocratic match, neither are prepared for the passion that ignites between them or the love they can’t ignore.

In the Duke’s Den, can happiness ever be a winning prospect?

Excerpt:

He was an ambitious young man. Far more so than her brother. While Dominick had been happy to return from university with nothing but memories of frivolity and mischief, Lord Egerton had taken top marks in mathematics and philosophy and won trophies in several athletic endeavors. Di knew whatever competition he entered, Lord Egerton strove to win.

He stared at her, his mouth curved in a warm smile. The expression struck her as odd. Friendliness, she expected. But there was something more in his grin.

“You’ve always been kind, Diana.”

The way he said her name, the care he took with each syllable, filled her with unease.

“I do try to be kind.”

He stepped closer, and one hand hovered between them as if he was considering whether to reach for her. “You’re also quite the prettiest girl I have ever known.”

Diana took a step back. Then another. Fear of what was to come set her heart fluttering like a bird that’s just noticed the bars of its cage.

“Samuel,” she started, desperate to forestall what he intended to say or do. But it was too late.

In one swift move, he lowered himself onto one knee and reached for her hand.

Diana froze, her muscles tightening and her tongue thickening. His touch felt heavy and yet oddly distant, as if her skin had gone numb.

“Marry me, Miss Ashby.”

Oh no. Panic sped her pulse. A single insistent hammer pounded behind her eyes. She knew what she wished to say. There was no question of her answer, but she couldn’t get the words out.

“May I take your silence as an acknowledgment of what I’ve long known?”

“I . . .” she forced out on a gasp.

He squeezed her fingers and inched closer, as if fearful of missing a single word.

“I regret . . .” The words were almost impossible to get out. Not because they weren’t true, but because panic always caused her to freeze.

But the two words sufficed.

Egerton began to crumble, the eagerness in his pale gaze turning to disappointment and then anger.

“I cannot marry you.” She shook her head to make sure he could not mistake her meaning. She had no wish to cause him embarrassment or misery, but she had no desire to marry him. Or anyone. Not yet. “My inventions—”

Synopsis:

Although beautiful young widow Phoebe, Lady Clare, has never met West Ravenel, she knows one thing for certain: he’s a mean, rotten bully. Back in boarding school, he made her late husband’s life a misery, and she’ll never forgive him for it. But when Phoebe attends a family wedding, she encounters a dashing and impossibly charming stranger who sends a fire-and-ice jolt of attraction through her. And then he introduces himself…as none other than West Ravenel.

West is a man with a tarnished past. No apologies, no excuses. However, from the moment he meets Phoebe, West is consumed by irresistible desire…not to mention the bitter awareness that a woman like her is far out of his reach. What West doesn’t bargain on is that Phoebe is no straitlaced aristocratic lady. She’s the daughter of a strong-willed wallflower who long ago eloped with Sebastian, Lord St. Vincent—the most devilishly wicked rake in England.

Before long, Phoebe sets out to seduce the man who has awakened her fiery nature and shown her unimaginable pleasure. Will their overwhelming passion be enough to overcome the obstacles of the past?

Only the devil’s daughter knows…

 Excerpt:

“If you have any misguided thoughts about taking me into your bed, you would find it a vastly mediocre experience. I’d be on you like a crazed rabbit, and half a minute later the whole thing would be over. I used to be a proficient lover, but now I’m a burnt-out libertine whose only remaining pleasure is breakfast food. Speaking of which—”

Phoebe reached for him, brought herself up hard against him, and interrupted him with her mouth. West flinched as if scalded and held very still in the manner of a man trying to withstand torture. Undeterred, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him as passionately as she could, touching her tongue to his stiff lips. The feel and taste of him was exhilarating. Suddenly he responded with a primitive grunt and his mouth clamped on hers, wringing sensation from her with demanding pressure. Forcing her lips apart, he searched her with his tongue the way she remembered, and it felt so good, she thought she might faint. A whimper rose from her throat, and he licked and bit gently at the sound and sealed their mouths together in a deep, insatiable kiss that involved his lips, breath, hands, body, soul.

Whatever it might be like to go to bed with this man . . . it would be anything but mediocre.

Excerpt:

A half hour later they sat in a self-professed American bistro a few blocks from Wren’s office. Damon picked it for proximity and name but if the food tasted half as good as this place smelled, he’d be happy.

Cate looked ready to jump out of her chair.

It wasn’t even noon on a weekday and most of the tables were full. Waiters and waitresses bustled around the white and black checkered floor. From their table in the back, Damon could see it all, including the very antsy, very pretty woman in front of him.

She shiny, straight black hair fell over her shoulders. As she crossed and uncrossed her legs, her body shifted around. One minute she fiddled with her napkin, the next she wrapped her fingers around the armrests of the chair and held on as if she rode the wildest roller-coaster.

Damon wasn’t sure what was happening in her head. Probably a back and forth about him and whether he would be any help to her at all.

He cursed Wren for putting him in the ill-fitting and always uncomfortable role of savior.  He’d spent his life disappointing people. Apparently, now it was Cate’s turn.

She finally broke the silence on a loud exhale. “We’ve studied the menu and ordered, had a few sips of water and looked around. Would now be a good time to get to work?”

As she spoke, she pinned him across the table with a fiery look in those deep brown eyes. He’d been waiting for her to take control again, and she did not disappoint. Except for her meal choice. “You ordered a grilled cheese and salad.”

She frowned. “So?”

Her quick glance toward the door leading to the street suggested she was toying with the idea of making a run for it. Damon couldn’t blame her. He’d had the same run like hell sensation racing through him since Wren handed him her file.

“It’s a burger place. The word ‘burger’ is actually in the name of the restaurant.” Which was the main reason Damon picked this restaurant instead of something more out of the way and quiet.

“I bet they have the unique skills required to make things with cheese.”

Sassy, verbally punching out…he liked it. Even though she looked ten seconds from punching him, his initial thought was that he liked her. She fought him, didn’t back down and bullied her way into meeting Wren – or whatever name he used when they met. She used her contacts to hunt down the one person who might help her. All smart. Those were the moves of a survivor.

Studying her wasn’t exactly a hardship either. The file Wren handed him listed her mother’s name as Emi Asato. A single mother who put herself through college while she raised Cate and her sister. Born in Ohio to parents who came to the U.S. from Osaka, Japan, the woman buried one daughter while the other fought to find out the truth. Those facts made him respect the whole family. That kind of tenacity and strength always made him look twice.

The rest of Cate, the long legs and sexy pronounced collarbone where her thin gold chain balanced, the way her white v-neck T-shirt highlighted high, round breasts and trim waist…well, those worked for him, too. From the way she walked to the way she talked, she intrigued him. He found himself wanting to know more about how she lived and what, other than her dead sister, mattered to her.

He appreciated every inch of her, including that big brain that she didn’t hesitate to use to best him whenever possible. That was some pretty sexy shit right there.

“Are you not a meat eater? Because that’s something I should know upfront.” The kind of thing Wren should put in her file. Damon didn’t think that was too much to ask.

As predicted she frowned at him. Shot him one of those you’re-wasting-time looks that she’d been using on him nonstop since they met. “Are you serious right now?”

“Because I eat a lot of burgers and if that’s going to offend you, I can eat something else. I won’t like it, but I will.” Her fidgeting must be rubbing off on him because he picked up his fork then set it down again.

She leaned across the table. “How many burgers?”

Now this was a topic he could handle. Especially since she asked the question in a soft voice, as if they were sharing a secret. “Every day.”

She sat back hard in her seat again. “You do not eat a hamburger every day.”

He ignored the horror in her voice. “True. Some days I mix it up and order a cheeseburger. If I’m feeling particularly frisky I’ll have a steak sandwich.”
