🌟 BOOK BLITZ 🌟 British Banger by Jennifer Woodhull {EXCERPT + GIVEAWAY!}




British Banger by Jennifer Woodhull

Release Date: May 31st 2020
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

British accents should come with a warning label. When they’re attached to deep, baritone voices that belong to sexy, cocky men, you should have to sign a waiver.

Most people wouldn’t touch short-term rental properties, but since my business partner took off with my client list, I need every deal I can get. Enter, one insanely sexy and completely exasperating Camden Reid.

The smug executive found fault with every property I showed him. Too cramped. Too feminine. Too far from a decent pub.

His demands were ridiculous, and I couldn’t wait to be rid of him and his British bangers.

Somewhere between the first property and the zillionth, though, my attraction to Camden grew impossible to ignore.

His insane demands finally met, the arrogant Adonis proposed we christen his new temporary home.

Little did I know how addicted I’d become, or just how unforgettable my time with Camden would be.

After all, I knew we had an expiration date.

All good things must come to an end, right?

Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.

British Banger is written in the world of British Bedmate (Dear Bridget, I Want You). It features Bridget, Simon, and Calliope, along with a cast of new characters to fall in love with.

Chapter 6


After staring at my new, very important client for what feels like a very, very long time, I finally regain command over the ability to speak. “Good morning.” 

“Morning.” He dips his head down a little so he can glance at me over his shades. His chocolate eyes dart from mine to the two cups in my hands. “Is one of those for me, or are you doubling down today?” 

I smile. “For you. Here you go.” I hand him the cup of tea. “I’m parked at the curb. Shall we get started?” 

I step toward the sliding glass doors that open of their own accord, and suddenly hear him exclaim behind me. 

“Bloody hell! What is this shit?” 

I turn to find him looking down at the green and white paper cup in his hand. 

“It’s tea. You’re British. You drink tea, right?” 

“I am, and I do. This however,” he holds the cup above the trash can next to the lobby door. “Is not tea.” 

He opens his long fingers and lets the cup drop into the bin. My eyes widen and I open my mouth to say something, but then close it again. He steps forward into my space and stares down at me. 

“What have you got, then?” 

“I, um, have an espresso shot in Colombian roast?” It comes out as a question. 

He reaches down and takes the cup from my hand, his fingers searing mine as they graze my skin, then puts it to his lips and takes a long sip. 

“Mm. Much better.” He steps toward the door. “Shall we get on with it?” 

He took my coffee. The cocky asshole literally just stole my coffee.

🔖 BLOG TOUR 🔖 Sour by Jennifer Woodhull {REVIEW + GIVEAWAY!}




Sour by Jennifer Woodhull

Release Date: June 4th 2019
Genres: Romance, Contemporary 

Tall, handsome, and eternally optimistic Noah has dated a string of gorgeous women. His best friend Elle has outlasted them all. Of course, he has no idea she's been in love with him for years. Why would he? It's not like she's going to tell him. After all, she's short and awkward, and as he's fond of reminding her, has a sour disposition. 

When Elle takes off on her annual ten-day vacation with her family, Noah comes to a startling realization. She's the woman who is by his side day in and day out, whose office is across the hall, and whose house is around the corner. She has called him on his shit when he gets too cocky, and he has held her in her arms when her heart was broken. Absence must make the heart grow fonder because while she's in Germany with her parents, he realizes that everything he has ever wanted was right there all along. Now he's on a mission to make her realize that romance won't ruin their friendship, but platonic friendship is ruining their relationship.



My Review:

Sour is a friends-to-lovers story that is filled with swoon worthy moments that are going to keep you wanting for more.

At the beginning of the story we get to meet Ariel (Elle) Bailey who has been away in Germany for her family’s yearly family adventure. With no phones, computers or any other kind of technology to keep in touch, Elle finds herself missing her best friend, Noah. Having been best friends for six years, the two have developed a really close friendship over time. They have each other’s house keys and even work in the same company with desks right across from each other. But having that type of relationship can often times lead to developing deeper feelings for the other person. In this case, Elle has been crushing over her best friend for some time now. It took a bad break up to make her see that Noah will always have her back no matter what and she has seen him in a different way ever since. She wants to see him happy, but wishes it could be with her. But a trip to Las Vegas is about to make things that much more difficult as feelings are revealed and they have to figure out what to do next.

Noah Adler has moved a lot in his lifetime. There hasn’t been anything constant in his life. except for Elle. She has been there ever since they met and it is her fiery personality that makes him fall in love with her. He knows that she still sees him as a player, but a trip to Las Vegas is the perfect place to tell her how he feels. Except things go majorly wrong and he’ll have to convince her that she is his forever before it’s too late.

I very much enjoyed reading this book. The beginning completely sucked me in as the scenes were swoon worthy and funny. Noah is the perfect guy that anyone would want to have as a friend/lover. He is incredibly sweet and caring towards Elle that makes him that much more lovable. On the other hand, Elle is kind and has a fiery personality. She is also insecure and that’s one of things that she needs to overcome in the story as well. It’s evident that both of them have obstacle to overcome, but I still managed to find Elle a bit of a frustrating character to read. Her insecurities were amplified that it was hard to enjoy the romance between the characters. That was just one part, but the ending was great. It was sweet and it came full circle which I liked. All in all, if you are looking for a good friends-to-lovers story then I would highly recommend checking out this book. You are going to enjoy it! :)

**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title in exchange for an honest review**

My Rating:


About the Author:

Perhaps nothing provides a private moment - a brief respite from every day - like escaping into a great story. When you pick up one of my books I hope you find that place that you can escape to. Explore the streets of Paris with new heroines or fly around the world to reclaim your lost love with a favorite hero. Whether it's the romance that takes your breath away or those climactic encounters that make your pulse race, I hope you find that solitary moment of enjoyment while lost in one of my stories.

Over the years they became inseparable. He never dared to tell her his true feelings. After all, what could a guy like him offer a girl as perfect as her?

The secret feelings she's harbored for years have to stay buried if she wants to keep her friend. 

When Cole begs Dexter to use the new technology he's just developed to help him on his date with Sinclair, he pushes his feelings aside so the woman he loves can have a shot at happiness. Doing the wrong thing for the right reason, though, just might cost him the one person on earth he can't live without.

My books always have plenty of heat, lots of heart, and satisfying happily-ever-afters with no cheating and no cliffhangers.



{EXCERPT}

“She’s so fucking pretty,” Cole says, lolling his head back and forth against the headrest of my Tesla.

The phrase irritates the crap out of me. I feel like I want to punch him. Not that I’ve ever punched anyone, but that’s what this feels like—like I want to commit violence against my friend for using such a pedestrian description for a creature as indescribably spectacular as Clair.

“I don’t know though, man. She said she’d go out with me, but I’m not really sure she likes me.” Cole shakes his head. “It makes me kinda nervous. Usually, girls love me.” He turns to me and wriggles his eyebrows. “I mean, they really love me. It’s just…I don’t know. She’s different.”

“She is different. She’s intelligent, kind, inquisitive, funny...She’s definitely not like anyone else I know.” My response is a knee-jerk reaction in defense of the woman that holds so much of my heart. I immediately regret it saying these things, though. Idiot. Why are you selling him on how great she is? He already got something I’ll never have—a date with her.

“What sorta stuff should I talk to her about?” He asks.

“What do you usually talk to your dates about?”

“I usually say. ‘Hi. I’m a famous athlete. Also, I’m rich and have a huge cock. Let’s go to your place.’ Then they say okay, and we go to their place and fuck. If they’re good at it, I keep going back, and then we’re basically dating.” He shrugs.

I pull into the driveway and the gate closes behind us. I drop my head to the steering wheel and let out a long, deep breath.

“Cole, let me be clear,” I say carefully. “Clair is my friend. She’s my best friend.”

“I thought I was your best friend.”

“You’re my best male friend. She’s my best friend.”

“So I’m not your best friend? Ouch, bro.”

“You’re in the top two.”

Only two, really, but that’s not really the point.

“That’s not so bad, I guess. Hey, imagine if me and Sinclair got married someday. When you come to visit us, you’d get to see your two best friends at once!” He grins.

I’m dying. Oxygen is no longer getting into my bloodstream and my organs are shutting down. It’s the only explanation I can think of for the hell in which I find myself trapped.

“Again, Cole, let me be crystal clear. Do not treat Clair like some piece of ass. Don’t just sleep with her if you’re not serious about her.” My words are a caution.

He looks at me and his expression is earnest. “I wouldn’t do that, Dexter. I’m not an asshole.”

“I know you’re not an asshole. I just mean…” I blow out a breath and turn to him. “I know sometimes you date women and it’s just for fun. Clair is…she’s really important to me. Please don’t use her if you don’t see her as more than someone to go out with a couple of times, then move on from.” I hold his gaze, and he seems to get that I’m serious.

“Dude…do you like her? Should I not have asked her out—were you going to make a move?” He asks.

The weight of that question hangs in the air for a moment. My heartbeat is so loud, I’m sure any passerby could hear it. The blood courses through my veins with such fervor, I feel as if my arteries will burst.

Should I have made a move?

I don’t think she’d have been remotely interested in changing the dynamic of our relationship, but I was never brave enough to find out. After tonight, I feel, somehow, like I’ll never get the opportunity to know for sure.

“We’re just friends. We’ve always been just friends,” I reply.

It doesn’t answer his question, but the subtle ambiguity of my response is lost on my friend.

“Okay, I was just making sure. Cause, dude,” he shakes his head. “She’s hot as hell. As long as I’m not stepping on your toes…I’m totally going for it.”

🌟BOOK BLITZ:🌟 The Dating Alternative by Jennifer Woodhull {EXCERPT + GIVEAWAY!}




The Dating Alternative by Jennifer Woodhull

Release Date: December 26th 2018 by Jennifer Woodhull
Pages: 288
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

After her fiance walks out just weeks before their wedding, Brie isn't ready for another relationship. After her friends convince her that what's good for the goose is good for the gander, she decides to give something more casual a try. When the good-looking guy she has flirted with for years keeps popping up, she's tempted. She may not be ready for dating, but Max is happy to offer her an alternative. 

Brie

Finding out your fiance is dating someone else is a real downer. What can I say? I picked the wrong guy. Gave him the wrong finger. Taking a break from dating seems like the logical choice. 

There are some great things about being single. Going without... you know, s-e-x... isn't one of them. My friends are trying to convince me that there's an app for that, but it's not working out so well. There is this one guy I've always sort of flirted with, though. For the first time since I've known him, we're single at the same time. I'm so not ready to jump into another relationship, but maybe it's time to find out if this friends-with-benefits thing can really work.

Max

I have crushed on Brie ever since I first met her, but the timing was never right. Now, though, she's single and so am I. Just my luck, she's got me firmly planted in the friend zone.

When I find out she's looking for something strictly physical, of course, I offer my services—I mean, what are friends for, after all? The problem is, the more time I spend with her, the more convinced I am that she's perfect for me. I'm probably the only guy in history to ruin a no-strings-attached deal by falling for the girl. 

Now, I've got to try to make her see I'm not like her jerk of an ex. If she'll give us a chance, I know we could be great together. She's under my skin, and if she walks away, she takes my heart with her.

Sabrina

He sets his coffee down on the little table beside me and I sink into the overstuffed wingback chair and gulp down several more sips of the soothing, warm liquid. I close my eyes, finally starting to feel more relaxed.

Max returns a moment later and grabs my hand, leaning down close to my ear. “Don’t freak out, but bad news – your ex is here. I saw him in the bathroom and he’s headed this way. Follow my lead.”

He pulls me to my feet, sits in the chair, and pulls me down on to his lap, facing out toward the aisle. He nods, indicating he has a plan, and quickly undoes the top button of my blouse. Then he pulls me close, one arm wrapped around my back at the shoulder, the other around my hips, and starts nuzzling my neck and collarbone.

I’m panicked, confused, and turned on all at once. Jesus, he feels incredible. “We’re a couple, got it?” His words are hot and warm against my ear, and when he nuzzles a little further down onto my neck, his beard tickles my collarbone, and I start to giggle.

I unconsciously slide my arms around his neck. He is a wall of solid muscle, and being on his lap, his face against my skin, my hands running across his broad shoulders is all working together to make a need pool in my belly like I haven’t felt in years. My panties are soaked, and I involuntarily press my thighs together.

Fuck, Brie. This guy hasn’t even kissed you, and you’re about to come just from sitting on his lap. You need to get laid. Bad.

The thought makes me laugh out loud. “That’s perfect,” Max says, glancing over his shoulder, then pressing his cheek to mine. “Here he comes,” he whispers. His breath is hot on the curve of my ear, and it leaves goosebumps along my flesh.

Max squeezes my side, his massive hand stretching easily across the depth of my ribs. I laugh even louder. “Oh my God, stop it!” I giggle as I say it more loudly than I intend to.

“Brie? Is that you?” I look up to see Grant standing over us.
