The sixth book in the #1 iBooks bestselling Gypsy Brothers series.
Juliette and Jase may be out of Dornan's immediate reach, but as tensions rise, will they end up walking right into the enemy's trap?
Can Juliette forgive Jase for his devastating betrayal, or will it destroy everything they've been fighting for?
Excerpt: Two Roads
He killed my father. I’m having his baby.
He killed my father. I’m having his baby.
Those two sentences are on repeat in my head, the agony of the rolling waves almost too much for me to bear.
And the agony of my nausea slams into me again with the violent rock of the waves that carry us to safer shores. I think. I hope.
But really, how safe am I? I’m suddenly questioning everything, stuck in a vortex of swirling paranoia and doubt. Is Jase on Dornan’s side? He killed my father. He didn’t even try to deny it.
I can’t believe it, I can’t accept it, and I just wish I could think straight for five fucking minutes. I wish I didn’t feel like this. I’ve left one prison, the one Dornan constructed for me, only to be trapped in one of my own making. The one in my mind that goes over and over and over again.
I’m curled as tight as I can get into a ball on a bed in the main cabin of the boat. We must be going pretty fast, or be in some crazy swell, because I swear if the boat tilted a little more, it’d capsize.
The door is closed. I made Elliot promise he wouldn’t let Jase come in here. I’m going to have to face him eventually, but I just can’t face him now. I don’t want to hear his excuses, if he even has any. He killed my father.
I’ve never been afraid of drowning before, but right now, I’m terrified. Drowning in this ship. Drowning in lies and in blood. Drowning in my own treacherous deceit. For so long, I’ve had only one goal – to destroy Dornan. I was too busy focusing on his suffering to notice or care about my own, and now, I feel so damned broken. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to feel normal again.
In fact, come to think of it, I don’t even know what normal is.
I jump as a warm hand touches my shoulder.
“Hey,” a low voice murmurs beside me.
I turn over to see Elliot lying beside me, his pose mirroring mine. I can see water lashing against the small round window that looks out to the cruel sea we travel within.
“You’re shaking,” Elliot says, frowning as he reaches out a hand to me. Without thinking, I shrink back, an automatic response after three months of Dornan’s psychotic hands being the only ones to reach for me. Elliot’s face crumples into something resembling sadness—despair—as he reaches out to me again, slower this time, and pushes my lank hair back from my face.
Am I even here? I’m not sure. This could all be a dream. An elaborate, drug-induced hallucination. The thought makes me reel. Am I out? Or am I still in the basement? Is Elliot in front of me, or is it Dornan?
I scramble away from Elliot, clambering off the bed and backing up to the far end of the tiny room. Behind me, waves pound violently into the thick glass porthole, the only thing separating us from the deadly currents beyond. The movement of the waves catches my attention and I turn, mesmerized, as I press a trembling palm up to the freezing cold glass.
Am I here? Am I alive?
A nudge in my stomach, nothing more than a flutter really, propels me back to sanity.
Yes. I am here. I am here, while Elliot hovers behind me, and Jase and Luis are somewhere beyond the door that keeps me safe in this room.
And I am carrying a baby inside me. A baby that should never have existed.
And I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a terrible thing.

Title: Between a Rock and a Hard Place (Radical Rock Stars, #2)
Author: Jenna Galicki
Release Date: September 30, 2014
Genre: Contemporary Erotic Romance
She’s a rock goddess.
He’s a sex pistol.
I need them both, in my life and in my bed, and I'm not living without either one of them.
I’ll do whatever it takes to keep them there, even if it costs me everything I ever wanted.
I’m Tommy Blade, The Prince of Punk Rock, and this is the rest of our story.
When Jessi Blade is forced to miss the first leg of Immortal Angel’s world tour, Tommy Blade and Angel Garcia are alone together for the first time. Their romance flourishes and brings them closer together, but time apart puts a strain on Tommy and Jessi’s marriage. The demanding schedule of a world tour, pressure from the record label and a wife who feels neglected, leaves Tommy under a blanket of anxiety. He’s helpless as his perfect life slowly falls to pieces.
When Jessi finally catches up to Tommy and Angel four weeks into their world tour, she begins to feel like an outsider. She’s not about to take a back seat to Angel and she competes for Tommy’s attention. Tired of the rivalry, she begins to wonder if they’d be happier without her.
Angel is trying to hold their relationship together, but Jessi’s animosity and Tommy’s nervous tension, are a heavy load to carry. Before long, it becomes clear that their life, and the band, are doomed unless they work out their differences.
The Prince of Punk Rock (Radical Rock Stars Book One)
I love her, but I also love him.
She’s everything to me.
He sets my world on fire.
It's our dirty little secret, and it’s about to blow our record deal sky high.
I’m Tommy Blade, the Prince of Punk Rock, and this is our story.
Tommy Blade is a man with a secret. It’s a secret he only shares with one person, Jessi Blade – and the men he surrenders to in the bedroom. Jessi’s only condition to their tumultuous sex life is that the men are one night stands. But when Angel Garcia enters their life, it’s like a match to gasoline.
Mega-talented punk rock singer Angel Garcia, with his smoldering ebony eyes, tight leather pants and unstoppable stage presence, is a man who is used to getting what he wants. He has his eyes set on Tommy Blade as his new lead guitarist, and as his life partner.
Jessi Blade, sympathetic to her husband's bisexual needs, loves him enough to share him, but she never counted on Angel Garcia to test the threshold of her marriage. He makes her life hell . . . and heaven. He’s her damnation and her salvation. She wants to hate him. She wants to despise him. But his charm and raw sex appeal are impossible to resist. Without warning, she finds herself falling in love with her husband's gay lover.
At the height of it all, their punk rock band catapults to stardom.
Their lives are marred by secrecy, deception and sacrifice. Feelings of betrayal, backlash from the sensationalistic media and threats of blackmail send them down a hard road filled with tough decisions.
They aren't your ordinary rock stars. They're radical rock stars. And they have a big story to tell.

Mercy by Deneane Clark Blog Tour
SYNOPSIS:
The youngest of six sisters, Mercy Ackerly has known since
thirteen what everyone else is about to learn: She’ll marry the elusive Duke of
Blackthorne.
WORTH THE WAIT
It was love at first sight for thirteen-year-old Mercy Ackerly. The second she
encountered the traveling Duke of Blackthorne, she fell in love…with his
horses. And since Sebastian Tremaine was also perfect, they would someday be
man and wife.
From the start, Sebastian has felt oddly protective of Mercy. Delightfully
straightforward, the girl is everything honest and sweet, which is why he
approved when his best friend married into the family—and then so did his other
friends. But now Mercy’s all grown up. Now she’s facing the ton’s matchmaking
mamas and their deceitful daughters, is joining a world he despises, be it the
ballrooms and routs or the opulent crush. He would shield her if he could,
would do anything but entangle his heart.
Sebastian will fight the inevitable for as long as he can. And then he’ll fight
for it. Some matches are schemed for, some are arranged, and some have just
been coming for a long, long time.
PURCHASE LINKS:
Mercy was a determined young girl when she first meets the man she swears she is going to marry one day. She continues to feel this way and believes it even while getting ready to go to London for her Season. This dream she has of marrying this man who has become a part of her family is something that no one outside her family, or those in her little town know about.
Sebastian is a young man that had a sheltered existence until he turns 18. That is when he learns what he thought he knew, wasn't exactly accurate. He was raised by his loving mother after his father leaves. What he doesn't know, is that his grandfather, the Duke, knows who he is, and in fact is involved from the sidelines in his life.
These two people come from very different backgrounds and lives. However, they are both struggling to find their way and where they really belong. Will they ever really come together, admit their feelings, and open themselves up to the other person?
This story kept me laughing at Mercy when she was younger and all the shenanigans she got into. I wanted to jump in and befriend young Sebastian who had no real friends as a young boy. As they got older, I wanted, more than once, to thump both of them for their behavior. However in the end, I fell head over heels for these two people. Actually, I feel for the entire Ackerly family. They are crazy, loud, boisterous, and yet support each other no matter what. Take some time and meet this amazing family made up of six daughters, and the amazingly strong men that they each end up with!
EXCERPT
MERCY
It was now or never. He wouldn’t come to another ball, of that she was sure. And he definitely wasn’t going to pay a call on her at her sister’s townhouse. If he’d ever intended that, he’d have done so by now.
Before she could talk herself out of it, she gathered her courage, turned back around and blurted, “I love you.”
Sebastian’s eyes widened. Mercy took a step toward him and continued speaking before her temporary bravado could desert her. “I know you probably didn’t know that, which is why you haven’t come to see me since I’ve been in London, but I’m grown up now so there’s no need for me to wait any longer to tell you.” She laced her fingers together and brought them to her chest as if they could somehow calm the furious beating of her heart. “I’ve loved you since I opened my eyes in your coach when I was thirteen years old, and that love has never gone away. I know I’m young, but you really aren’t all that much older than me and…”
Mercy realized she was rambling and made herself stop talking. She bit her lip and chanced another glimpse of him up through her lashes. His golden eyes were soft, his expression serious. He gazed down at her, but she couldn’t tell at all what he was thinking.

Deneane Elise Clark is an historical romance novelist. Her
published work includes the first three books in THE VIRTUE SERIES, a lighthearted

Deneane's books have been published in the United States, Canada, the UK and
Australia, and have been translated into several languages, including Dutch,

Currently, she resides near Charlotte,NC, but has also lived in the Northeast,
the Midwest, and on the West Coast. She prefers mountains to beaches, cities to
suburbs, and suburbs to rural areas, and would be perfectly content if she
could just manage to convince the world to flip flop the working day so people
slept during the day and worked at night.
A single mom, Deneane raised her now grown up children while
working full time and writing at night. Her daughter enjoys traveling, so moves
in and out as the mood strikes, and her son recently enlisted in the United
States Marine Corps. She enjoys sparkling beverages, music, plays trivia with
an amazing bunch of friends, and travels to London any time she gets the
chance.
