Broken Prince (Cinderella #2)

by Aubrey Rose 

The thrilling new follow up to the new adult bestseller Me, Cinderella? by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Aubrey Rose! 

Happily ever after is just what they say in books. Real life is MUCH more complicated.

Once broken, can two shattered lives ever be made whole again?

My Teaser: 

"I squealed as he lifted me up, my feet kicking helplessly in the air. His arms held me tightly against his broad chest, and I flung my arms around his shoulder.

'Come,' he said. 'Come with me, princess, and I will save you from the evil monsters that lurk in the cracks of number theory.'

'It doesn't look like I have a choice in the matter,' I said happily, as he marched down the hallway with me in his arms.

'You always have a choice, Brynn' Eliot said. His voice was quieter, and I hugged him around the neck, placing a small kiss on his collarbone.

'Then I choose to be with my prince.' I said" (Broken Prince, pg. 25) 

***I realize that my teaser is more than just two sentences, but I couldn't contain myself. I really enjoyed reading this book very much. :)

Avery Russell, valet and prize pugilist, reluctantly helps Leah gain a position in the Duke of Granville's household . . . as a maid.

Domestic servitude wasn't exactly what she had in mind, but she's determined to win her happily ever after. Even if the hero isn't exactly who she's expecting.

My Teaser:

"Avery?" The question was whispered, her eyes soft and confused as she looked up at him. He let his actions answer. Bending low, he pressed his lips to hers.

Soft heat. That was the sensation of her mouth on his. His muscles trembled with the effort of holding himself still, of restraining the urge to draw her body tight against his and posses her completely. This was enough. It was more than he deserved and all he'd ever get. She was leaving here, leaving him, forever." (pg. 148)

Korinne Anders had it all. She had the perfect job, the perfect house, and the perfect husband. When tragedy strikes, her world takes a devastating turn. Six months after losing her husband to a car accident, Korinne vows it to herself never to love again. If she doesn’t allow another man in her heart, then there’s no reason for her to feel the pain of loss. This plan seems to work, but is put to the test when Korinne’s best friend can’t stand to see her suffering any longer.

Korinne’s long-time friend, Jenna Perry, has an idea and it involves helping her friend find the spark of life in her soul no matter what it takes. Korinne didn’t know that Jenna’s plan meant bringing back a past love, a second chance with the man that Korinne had to leave in college, but always kept a place for in her heart.

When Galen Matthews learns of Korinne’s loss and that she’s finally moved back home, he wants nothing more than to be there for her. The love he felt for Korinne years ago has never left him, and now he’s given a second chance to not only mend her heart of her loss, but to also continue the love they shared in the past. Will his love and determination make her strong enough to give fate a second chance, or will her fear of losing another love make her run away? 


What will Korinne do when she’s faced with a love so powerful that no matter what she does there’s nowhere to run from it?

My Teaser: 

"I don't want to overstep the boundaries you have, but I've missed this. I've missed the way you feel in my arms." His warm breath tickled along my neck, sending goose bumps down the whole expanse of my body. He pulled back slightly from the embrace, and in my heart I wanted to protest. When I didn't respond, he asked softly, "Do you not have anything to say about that?"

"I'm not sure what to say," I whispered.

"You'll know soon."

Surprising me, he laid a soft, gentle kiss upon my cheek before releasing his arms around my waist. He made sure to let his fingers linger a little longer than normal on my hips. I smirked at him to let him know I caught it, and he smiled in response." (Pg. 42-43)

Whisked away to Alaska, to an aunt she’s never met, Emma starts over. Secrets unveil themselves and now…she doesn't even know who or what she is.

A centuries old prophecy places Emma in the heart of danger. Creatures of horrifying and evil proportions are after her, and it will take Emma, her aunt, and six, gorgeously captivating Guardians to keep her safe. But, if she can survive until her eighteenth birthday... things will change. 

(Synopsis taken from Goodreads)

My Teaser:

"I glanced over to Kade who was leaning back in his seat with his eyes closed.

And what was with these escorts? One is unearthly gorgeous, and drives me crazy with his presence and touch, and the other looks like a pissed-off WWE wrestler. They're somehow connected to Watchers and On my God! My life is starting to feel like a cheap sci-fi flick. All that was missing were vampires and werewolves. Wait...Vampires? Kade sure looked like a vampire with his pasty white skin.

Oh hell! There goes my ridiculous overly-active imagination again." (pg. 36)

A Shade of Vampire 

by Bella Forrest 

On the evening of Sofia Claremont's seventeenth birthday, she is sucked into a nightmare from which she cannot wake. A quiet evening walk along a beach brings her face to face with a dangerous pale creature that craves much more than her blood.

She is kidnapped to an island where the sun is eternally forbidden to shine. An island uncharted by any map and ruled by the most powerful vampire coven on the planet. She wakes here as a slave, a captive in chains.

Sofia's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn when she is the one selected out of hundreds of girls to join the harem of Derek Novak, the dark royal Prince. Despite his addiction to power and obsessive thirst for her blood, Sofia soon realizes that the safest place on the island is within his quarters, and she must do all within her power to win him over if she is to survive even one more night.

Will she succeed? ...or is she destined to the same fate that all other girls have met at the hands of the Novaks?

"There's no escape, Sophia. If you want to survive, you must realize that in this kingdom, you exist to obey. Do as you're told and we just might allow you to love."

"You asked me what I wanted from you. There really is only one thing you could give me, Sophia."

I glared at him, determined to die with dignity and self-respect.

"Oh? And what's that?"

His answer sent chills down my spine.

"You." (pg.11)

Me, Cinderella?

by Aubrey Rose

One kind deed can change your life forever...

Brynn Tomlin could never afford to follow her heart. But when she sees a stranger shivering in the snow outside of the college library, an inexplicable urge leads her to buy him a hot cup of coffee. It's just a small act of kindness, a few words of conversation. Brynn should be focusing on her finals, after all, not on the man who looked up at her gratefully with piercing blue eyes. 

He could have been anyone - a janitor on break, a graduate student, a bum. But the man standing outside in the cold turns out to be Dr. Eliot Herceg, one of the most brilliant minds in mathematics and heir to a fortune. After years of reclusive isolation, he now finds his heart awakening to the kind girl whose name he does not know. 

Brynn has spent her life trying to forget her desires, and Eliot's deep wounds have taken nearly a decade to heal. After so much hurt, will either of them be able to open their hearts again? 

(Synopsis taken from Goodreads)

My Teaser: 

"I once thought that happily ever after was only true in books. Now, I'm struggling to see how the future might play out if the dreams continue to pale before reality. Every sentence I could think of has already been said a hundred times over, by people whose words come out perfect and beautifully formed, where mine die on the tongue or struggle out onto the page, mangled and imperfect. 

But my story isn't perfect, because I'm not perfect. Nothing is perfect except maybe in math, in the line that extends forever in both directions. Math is beautiful, I have always known that, but so is life. And I have grown to accept imperfection." (Pg. 177)
