⭐ BOOK BLITZ ⭐ The Professor by Skye Warren {EXCERPT + GIVEAWAY!}




The Professor by Skye Warren

Release Date: March 26th 2024
Series: Tanglewood University #1
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

New York Times bestselling author Skye Warren, delivers the sizzling first book in a brand new trilogy, The Professor, a forbidden, student/professor, ex-boyfriend’s dad romance.

One night only with a handsome stranger.
Older. Alluring. Savage. Dominant.
No last names or expectations.
Just raw, carnal, filthy pleasure.

I never thought I would see him again.
Until the first day of class. He’s my new professor.
And my ex-boyfriend’s father.

He has a world of secrets in his eyes and the weight of the world on his shoulders. I should stay away from him, but the more I try, the more consumed he gets.

His possessiveness is rivaled only by his secretive nature. He knows everything about me, but mystery surrounds him. Shadows threaten the entire university…and our forbidden love.




{EXCERPT}

“It’s okay,” he murmurs. “Pretend you don’t want it.”

His kiss is urgent, unyielding. He forces my mouth open, allowing me to feign resistance. Or at the very least, nonchalance. I let him tilt my head back and run his lips down my neck. It’s a terrible game I’m playing, letting him take the fall for our mutual destruction.

I should at least tell him, confess my own desire, even if he already knows.

It would be the honorable thing to do.

“Will—”

“Ah ah,” he says with a slow shake of his head, with a devastating expression of knowing in his dark eyes. “In this office, you will address me as Professor Stratford.”

My secret muscles clench, and he gives me an almost boyish smile.

“This gets you hot, doesn’t it, Ms. Hill?”

How is this possible? I had a heavy course load of classes my freshman year, with professors of every shape and size. They were smart and interesting, and for the most part, at least somewhat arrogant. Professor Stratford is all those things…and more. He’s simply more. More handsome, more mysterious. More playful as he nips at my lower lip.

“I asked you a direct question, Ms. Hill. Don’t make me punish you.”

My eyes widen. It’s not an entirely fake break in my voice. “What kind of punishment?”

“Let’s see,” he says, tugging my T-shirt off, leaving me in my bra. The starkness is enough to make my cheeks burn. He’s fully clothed while I’m shirtless. “For the first offense, I wouldn’t be too harsh. Then again, we can’t have disruptive students, can we?”

I thought his fist in my hair had been perverse.

That holding me up against the window had been a wild form of desire.

This is far worse.

And far better.

At least my body thinks so, becoming hot and clenched, swollen around nothing, hungry to have him inside me again, thrusting and thrusting the ache away.

“I tried to behave,” I tell him, surrendering to the game. Surrendering to him. “I tried to be a good student. It’s just that you were so…distracting.”

That earns me a dark chuckle. Large, strong hands undress me with calm expediency, as if stacking books or finding the right page. With both care and anticipation.

At this moment I’m the worn pages of an old copy of Romeo and Juliet.

He thumbs through my pages.

“You’d blame your professor for your own lack of focus?”

I gasp at his touch, low and intimate. It’s too much, and I scoot back to get away from him. That only lands me on the edge of his desk, smooth wood cool beneath my bare ass. “Maybe I can make it up to you?”

“Extra credit,” he says, musing. “Perhaps an oral report would suffice.”

Pages: 231
Genres: Romance, Contemporary

"You’re part of the circus now, which means you belong to me. You’re mine."

Logan Whitmere, the handsome owner of Cirque des Miroirs, is full of red flags. Secretive. Commanding. Dangerous.

I know better than to trust him, but I'm desperate for a way out of my small town.

He offers me a job as the fortune teller.

What does Logan know that he isn't telling me? He seems to want to protect me...from the performers. From himself. I fall for his possession. I'm afraid of his obsession.

There are secrets even the crystal ball won't reveal.

When the truth is unveiled, I'm forced to confront my dark past.

“Red Flags is completely captivating. There’s nothing I love more than a possessive hero and Logan Whitmere delivers. He has so many red flags I can’t even count them all and I'm obsessed.” - Ivy Smoak, Amazon bestselling author

“This story has everything—intrigue, allure, lust—and in the most perfect setting, the circus. Logan and Sienna’s chemistry sizzles from the moment they meet, and I want more, please!” - Willow Aster, USA Today Bestselling Author




My Review:

Warren delivers a sizzling and addictive romance in Red Flags. Prepare to go into the mysterious world of Cirque de Miroirs, it will leave you hooked from beginning to end!

At the beginning of the story we are introduced to Sienna Cole, who lives in the small town of Forrester, Texas. A town where not a lot happens and everyone knows each other. It’s been two years since she graduated high school and while some managed to escape town to go to college, Sienna is afraid that she might not get the same opportunity. Then everything changes when there are talks about a circus coming to town. 

Everyone wonders why the circus picked their small town, until she attends the opening night of Cirque de Miroirs that leaves Sienna impressed with the crowd it has drawn. It’s impressive and its alluring owner, Logan Whitmere, is interested in her. Which is a red flag for her, as she knows that men are only interested in her for one thing. It’s a lesson Sienna learned early and often. But Logan is different, he begins to show her his world and she starts to get a feeling for hope, of finally getting a chance to leave the town that has hurt her in so many ways. Soon Sienna realizes that Logan is not the only one obsessed with her and life truly takes a different turn of events.

From the intriguing synopsis to the eye-catching cover, Skye Warren has truly outdone herself! The story itself is creative and imaginative. We get to know Logan through Sienna’s perspective and it doesn’t disappoint. He is immediately protective towards Sienna from the very beginning, but as the two start to get to know each other, Sienna sees how secretive and dangerous he can be. She is afraid of not developing feelings for him and how easily he can hurt her like everyone else has in the past. Yet, it’s when he offers her a way out of town that she realizes that she has no other choice. Until secrets are unveiled that changes her life forever. The story does end on a cliffhanger, but it had me at the edge of my seat. I cannot wait to read what happens next. I would highly recommend checking out this story, it’s a good start to the series! :)

***I received an advanced copy from the publisher. All opinions are my own.***

My Rating: 4.5/5

Three to Get Ready by Skye Warren 

Release Date: February 16, 2023
Pages: 161
Genres/Tropes: Contemporary Romance/Billionaire Romance/Fake Relationship 

There’s a ticking time bomb in Finn Hughes's head.

That means he has to prepare everyone. Eva. The baby. The company, which is in an uproar after the announcement. He needs to get them ready. Because when the curse hits, it will be too late to say goodbye.

WARNING: This book is intended for readers eighteen years old and over. It contains material that some readers could find disturbing. Enter at your own risk...




My Review:

Love is worth fighting for in Warren’s last book in her One for the Money Trilogy, Three to Get Ready. This stunning page-turning conclusion will leave you swooning and rooting for the characters until the very end!

Birthright comes in many forms, whether it is with money/property or secrets. For Phineos “Finn” Galileo Hughes and Eva Honorata Morelli they are stuck with their birthrights whether they like it or not. Now that they are officially engaged, Eva is also bound to the Hughes family secrets as well. While her family is on crisis control after the news brakes about Finn’s family, all Eva wants to do is to be with him. But Finn has to do damage control or he’s at risk of losing his family’s legacy. After all the work that it took to keep the curse a secret, it’s all about to change for them. Eva has always been the one to take care of everyone around her, it’s her strength and weakness. Yet, she knew what she signed up for the minute she fell in love with Finn and Eva will keep fighting to keep him for as long as she can.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Three to Get Ready, it was such an emotional rollercoaster as we get to see Eva and Finn go through their biggest obstacle yet. Her biggest fear has slowly become a reality, but Eva is determined for face anything with Finn by her side. The Morellis and Hughes have to stand together as a family unit, which was great to see them interact as well. Warren did a great job with the writing while exploring sensitive topics as well. The ending was special and sweet. I cannot wait to get a glimpse of the characters in other future books if there are any more in the Midnight Dynasty world. I would highly recommend checking out the trilogy and any other book by the author, you won’t be disappointed! :)

🔖 REVIEW 🔖 Force of Nature by Skye Warren and Amelia Wilde



Force of Nature by Skye Warren and Amelia Wilde

Release Date: September 6, 2022
Pages: 340
Genres: Romance, Suspense, Contemporary

Carter Morelli survived a violent childhood and dangerous missions. After he emergency lands the small aircraft, he faces something even worse: having someone depend on him. Geologis June Porter wants to study rocks. She didn’t plan to be stranded on a deserted island.

They aren’t alone on the island. A man hides among the broad leaves. He’s almost feral, this man. But he provides them shelter and food.

There are secrets in his hidden cabin. Desire, too.

Carter doesn’t want to care about the bookish, beautiful June.
But he doesn’t like this strange man’s interest in her, either.
Simmering chemistry wars with the need for survival.

Will they be found before they give into temptation?




My Review:

In The Crash, the prequel to the Deserted Island Trilogy, Warren and Wilde did such a great job introducing the characters and setting up the scene of what’s to come in Force of Nature.

We were introduced to Carter Morelli, a Biology Professor, who has been given the assignment to fly a wildlife photographer to Mauritania. The Biology Department hopes of capturing their research and bring awareness to their rare species programs. But the minute he meets June Porter, Carter’s life is turned upside down. June is nothing like what he was expecting, she is too good something that he is not. She is also a distraction when he is specifically on another mission of his own. Yet, finding out that their plane was tampered with launches him on another mission, to be able to get out of the island alive to be able to find out who wanted them dead. There is danger and beauty all around him, but more importantly they are not alone on the island and he has to protect June at all costs before it’s too late.

For June Porter, landing on a tropical island wasn’t on the plans as Carter was supposed to take her to the research facility. There are too many mysteries around Carter that makes it harder for June to fully trust him. Him telling her that their plane was tampered with just adds to the secrets that he’s been keeping from her. June has had a difficult childhood, some underestimate her and she is determined to find out who Carter really is.

I throughly enjoyed reading Force of Nature, the plot line took me by surprise, but it also added a unique element to the story. I still got the mystery vibe and the chemistry between the characters if off the charts. We get to learn more about each separately and the ending was truly unexpected. I’m intrigued, I cannot wait to read the next book in the trilogy, would highly recommend checking it out!

Pregnant. Alone. And heartbroken. The only thing Eva Morelli knows for sure is that she wants this baby. She learned how to depend only on herself a long time ago. 

The father, however? He made his position on marriage and children very clear.

My Review:

Warren delivers a sizzling continuation in the One for the Money Trilogy, Two for the Show will leave you swooning and rooting for the characters until the very end.

The story picks up right where it left off in One for the Money, where a turn of events truly turns the lives of Eva Morelli and Finn Hughes upside down. No matter how much Finn wanted to avoid any thought of having kids or getting married, his worst nightmare is coming true when he finds out that Eva is pregnant with his baby. Finn is used to knowing what his future is going to look like and has seen firsthand what his family’s inherited illness can do. So it pains him to know that he won’t have a lot of time with his child once the illness catches up with him. For Eva, knowing that Finn doesn’t want anything to do with their child breaks her heart and that makes her even more protective of the baby. No child of hers is going to feel the pain of being unwanted. Eva will have to make the choice of fighting for a future with Finn or walking away altogether.

The story just keeps getting better! Warren has written a story that will captivate you from beginning to end, this being the second book in the trilogy truly dives into the biggest hurtle that the main characters have to go through. Both are equally loyal to their families and they are aware of their responsibilities. For Finn, he has the tremendous responsibility to keep his family’s company going and he is still responsible for his younger brother. So when he finds out that Eva is expecting, he wants to protect her even more. Yet, there is a huge part of him that doesn’t want to allow himself to find happiness and the hope that Eva is bringing to his life. I throughly enjoyed the second characters and cameos from characters in the Midnight Dynasty world. I would highly recommend checking out this story, you will not regret it! :)

🔖 REVIEW 🔖 The Crash by Skye Warren & Amelia Wilde



The Crash by Skye Warren & Amelia Wilde

Release Date: July 11th 2022
Pages: 61
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance, Suspense

Carter Morelli works alone, but his orders are clear. Pilot the small aircraft carrying the renowned geologist to a remote island. Except the plane malfunctions at a crucial moment.

June Porter wants to stay on solid land. She doesn’t want to fly, but it’s the only way to get to the dig site. Then her worst fears come true.

A heavy storm. A swift fall from the sky. And a heart stopping crash.

An emergency landing leaves them stranded.

A shadow moves through the trees. They aren’t alone in the jungle.


As the prequel to the Deserted Island Series, Wilde and Warren have teamed up to deliver a page-turning and sizzling start in The Crash. This glimpse to the suspenseful romance is a must-read!

For Carter Morelli being a Biology Professor at Oxford University has given him the freedom and flexibility to travel to remote places. He likes working alone, but a perk of the mission is that he gets to fly his very own plane. Carter is to escort the new wildlife photographer hired by the Biology Department to Mauritania for three weeks. All to bring awareness to the way their search programs protect rare species around the world. He assumes that June Porter is someone bookish with a particular style, but the minute she walks through the door Carter knows that he is doomed. June is beautiful, lively and sweet. It irritates him how vulnerable and exposed she is to the world. Finding out that she has a phobia of flying makes him want to protect her even more. His plans are quickly changing and going off course. Until the plane starts to shake, leaving him wondering if they’re going to make it out alive.

I cannot wait to see how the story unfolds, there is already a lot of secrecy, chemistry and suspenseful moments that had me at the edge of my seat. Carter is the James Bond superhero that we all need! I’m officially intrigued and I can’t wait to read Force of Nature. I would highly recommend checking out the prequel! :)

🌟 BOOK BLITZ 🌟 The Crash by Skye Warren & Amelia Wilde {EXCERPT + GIVEAWAY!}




The Crash by Skye Warren & Amelia Wilde

Release Date: July 11th 2022
Pages: 61
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance, Suspense

Carter Morelli works alone, but his orders are clear. Pilot the small aircraft carrying the renowned geologist to a remote island. Except the plane malfunctions at a crucial moment.

June Porter wants to stay on solid land. She doesn’t want to fly, but it’s the only way to get to the dig site. Then her worst fears come true.

A heavy storm. A swift fall from the sky. And a heart stopping crash.

An emergency landing leaves them stranded.

A shadow moves through the trees. They aren’t alone in the jungle.




{EXCERPT}

It’s a sunny day. Fluffy white clouds in a blue sky. No turbulence jostles us again. We couldn’t have asked for a better day to fly. It’s perfect, except for the sense of foreboding.

The engine stutters. It’s not precisely wrong, but it’s not precisely right.

“Carter? What’s happening?”

“Nothing.”

It’s not unprecedented. Engines make noise. They’re mechanical. It happens. I check the gauges. Nothing. It’s a small plane, but top-of-the-line. Well-maintained. I checked it over, tip to tail, when I arrived at Heathrow. Nothing was out of order then.

Nothing should be broken now.

Another stutter. This one’s bigger. Fuck.

The fuel gauge swings down toward empty, ticking by line after line.

My entire spine chills. That’s a malfunction. That’s a fucking problem. We’re dumping fuel on a delay, out over the ocean, almost like…

Someone planned for this to happen.

Fuck. Is that what my handler was calling about? How would she know something is wrong on the plane, thousands of miles away? I reach for the landing gear controls.

They try to engage. They fail. Fuck, fuck, fuck.

What’s happening is that the landing gear are stuck halfway open.

Worse, I don’t trust the navigation equipment.

The paper map in the panel above my head resists coming out, but I force it. Open it. Check my bearings one last time. Trust them one last time.

Angle the plane in a slightly different direction.

Off the flight plan, but toward the only land within range on the map.

What the hell is going on? I’ve logged over half a million nautical miles. This has never happened before. The plane drops. A few hundred feet before I can steady it. June gasps, clapping a hand over her mouth.

And then the engines cut out.

It’s silent in the sky. Wind skims over the fuselage. My heart pounds in my ears. I ignore all of it.

Because we’re going down.

There’s nothing to keep this plane in the air.

Not a prayer in the world could keep us flying without engines.

“We’re going to land.” It’s the truth and nothing but the truth. There are no other choices. It’s land the plane or die. “Brace yourself.”

“No,” she breathes.

It’s only a whisper of breath, but I hear it. I feel it, brushing over my skin. I’m tuned in to her. Into the plane. Adrenaline floods my veins, making me tuned into the fucking universe. And every single signal is telling me that we’re fucked.

A patch of green in the ocean comes into view. It looks impossibly small. Too small to land on, much less reach, but as we hurtle forward, it gets larger. Becomes an island. The island I saw on the map.

That’s it.

Our only chance at survival.
