Happy 3rd Birthday Entangled Publishing!

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love my romance novels and over the last few years I have been pleasantly surprised with the books that I have read by Entangled Publishing. They always seem to be fresh and entertaining compared to many books that are currently being released. So I’m happy to see them turn 3 this month.

EntADS-3yrAnni(350x350)

From the Entangled Team:
Two years ago this February, Entangled launched our first category
imprint with Indulgence. The Marriage Bargain, one of our first releases in Indulgence, went on to be one of the top selling books of 2012 and catapulted Jennifer Probst to the USA Today and NY Times bestseller lists. Since then, we’ve grown to have six category romance imprints, as well as single title books for teens and adults in our Select, Edge, and Teen imprints, and have had multiple USA Today and NY Times bestsellers. It’s been a wild three years!

We’re celebrating! All month long, our February new releases, as well as select titles on our Steals and Deals page, are just 99 cents!

Yes, you read that right. Every new release will be offered at an introductory price of just 99 cents!

Be sure to join our big Facebook celebration from February 24th scavenger hunts, authors, games, gossip, and lots of fun!

Explore our new website and prepare to find romance, because we have something for everyone and join our “Steals and Deals” newsletter.

We’re kicking off the month-long celebration with three new Brazens, each with a smoking hot military man front and center and each for just 99 cents!

MFH_500Marine for Hire
Tawna Fenske

She thought she’d sworn off military men for good…

Sam Kercher is every inch a wickedly hot Marine. Tall. Sexy. Lethal.
When his best friends call in a favor, Sam is forced to face an entirely new line of duty—playing nanny for their newly divorced sister and her squirming seven-month-old twin boys. If Sam can dissemble an M16 in his sleep, diaper duty should be a cakewalk… right?

Unfortunately, Operation Nanny isn’t quite that simple. Sheridan has
sworn off overbearing military men, so Sam must protect her from her dirtbag ex without revealing just how much he has in common with her brothers. Or that he’s been ordered not to touch her. Ever.

Problem is, Sheri’s one hell of a gorgeous woman, capable of making this hard-bodied Marine even harder. And Sam wants her bad.

Protect the girl. Care for the babies. Hide his identity. And keep his hands off. But even the most disciplined Marine has weaknesses…and Sheridan is one Sam might not be able to resist.

SHC_500Staking His Claim
Tessa Bailey

He wants her. All of her.
NYPD sniper Matt Donovan is in Hell. Instead of driving his best friend’s little sister home from college, he’s stuck with her roommate—a fresh-faced ray-of-sunshine with a body that makes grown men weep. There’s no way he’ll allow himself to taint the little vixen, no matter how hard she tries to tempt him, so he resigns himself to the longest—and hardest—drive of his life.

Matt’s obvious attraction suits grad student Lucy Mason just fine. She had no idea her brother’s best friend was so deliciously hot. Knowing he’d never have his wicked way with his buddy’s sister, she lies about her identity and seduces him. But Matt’s no fumbling college boy.

His desires run deep—and dark—and he wants to teach Lucy what wicked really means. Matt’s demanding appetites only make Lucy want more. But when her cover’s blown, he’s furious—even as his hunger for her becomes insatiable. Matt can’t trust anyone, least of all himself. And he knows all too well that darkness always destroys the light…

TY_500Temporarily Yours
Jen McLaughlin, writing as Diane Alberts

This soldier’s the perfect hoax…if she doesn’t fall for him first. Stats whiz Kayla Moriarity knows her way around numbers and algorithms. Men, on the other hand, are unsolvable equations. Now Kayla’s en route to her sister’s wedding—without the fictional boyfriend she invented for her family. Fortunately, her plane comes complete with complimentary cocktails and a ridiculously hot ex-marine in the seat beside her. And that’s all it takes for Kayla’s inhibitions to go sailing out the airlock…

Cooper Shillings has soft spot for people in trouble, but he certainly wasn’t expecting to land in it himself—and definitely not while getting naughty mid-air with a sexy southern belle. When he hears Kayla’s predicament, however, he offers his services as a stand-in boyfriend.

After all, he’s heading overseas soon…and how could he refuse a little no-strings wickedness?

It’s the perfect plan. And all Kayla has to do is ensure her family falls for the ultimate bluff, without falling for it—and Cooper—in the process…

Happy WordPress Birthday to Me!

So when I logged on tonight (and for some reason, I had totally blanked on when I last posted a review), WordPress was kind enough to inform me that I have been a member for 3 years. So HAPPY WORDPRESS BIRTHDAY to me – which mean’s that Dee’s Book Blog is also 3 years old – so Happy Birthday Blog!

Follow Me on Twitter and Goodreads

Yes, I admit it. I finally caved to the social media that is Twitter 😉 You can find me at @deesbookblog

I have registered to attend at least one writer’s/reader’s conference this year and figured that tweeting while there would be a fun way to stay in touch with people.

You can also find me on Goodreads here

So feel free to stop on by and say hi.

How many books is too many?

I’ve always been one of those readers that has several books going at a time, but today, I realized I might have a problem. I was counting up my various in progress books and I have like 14 in various stages…holy crap!! I don’t think i’ve ever had that many going at once.

So the goal this week is to try and cull all those books down into a more reasonable to-read pile…lol! Hopefully I can do it.

How about you guys – are you a one book at a time kind of reader, or multiple?

EPIC Fail

So I was kindly reminded by one of my friends the other day (thanks She!) that I have been really bad about updating my blog…what can I say…so many books and so little time! So I’m going to be better starting from the 1st of this month…over the next few days, I’ll try to get updated on the books I’ve read and some other interesting stuff! Take Care and stay Warm (I nearly froze my butt off today!)

No Updates….I’m sorry!!

So, I promise that I am trying to get caught up with all my reviews…I have like 40 books that I’ve read in the last month which have reviews pending, but grad school has been kicking me in the behind, plus rehabing a knee injury! Be on the look-out for a massive update in the near future!
