Clarissa Yip — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 07:13:29 +0000

Released February 14, 2012!

Blurb:

Lia McEvil is back in town, and Max is in trouble.  

Max Sheraton and Lia McEvers have been rivals since childhood. Not even the kiss that chased Lia away could make them stop fighting. Now, five years later, Lia’s back in her hometown of Grant to open a new branch of her matchmaking business, True Connections–and Max finds himself in the line of fire when their families conspire for Max to make a connection of his own. Under pressure from both their grandmothers, Lia and Max embark on a scheme to find Max a suitable match, but it doesn’t take a compatibility profile to tell the real connection is between Max and Lia. Between sizzlingly hot kisses that turn into tempestuous fights, their attraction turns explosive enough to break down the antagonism between them.  

But Lia has a secret that’s chased her home…and that may be the one thing that can stop Lia and Max from making the true connection they so desperately crave.

Blurb:

Intent on leaving the Date for Charity Auction, billionaire Mark Passmore vows not to bid, until he sees the gorgeous blond strut across the stage. Need overwhelms his senses and he has to have her.

With an etiquette drill sergeant and society snob for a mother, Rebecca Hathaway a.k.a Ice Princess accepts an extraordinary dare—one that lands her in the arms of her ex, except he doesn’t know it’s her.

After an explosive passionate night with Mark, Rebecca sneaks back to her mundane life of tea parties and book clubs. But her mother has different plans for her: Marriage.

Although he’s ended their relationship three years ago, Mark has never stopped loving Rebecca. When he saves her from a disastrous date, he realizes he’s made a mistake in letting her go and risks another chance, until he learns the truth of Rebecca’s role in the action. Will he forgive her for her betrayal or walk away again?

Excerpt:

Slave? Laughter bubbled in to her throat. “What do you mean? Slave for what? Like a chauffeur or butler for the day?”

Erin shook her head. “A slave, Bec. Anything you want him to be. The rest of the night alone with this person to fulfill any fantasy you have.”

Rebecca gasped and shot out of her seat. “Why didn’t you tell me this before?”

Erin smiled, a nervous glint in her eyes. “If I had told you, then you would have backed out and Kelly would have won.”

Rebecca started to pace the small patch of carpet behind the chair to the door. Her life was over. Her mother was going to kill her and she’d never be able to show her face in public.

Oh, God. Her brother. She whirled around to face Erin. “You have to get Lucas out of there.”

Erin’s eyes widened. “I can’t. Then he’ll go and tell my parents that I’m here.”

She glared. “Look, if I’m going down, you’re going down with me.”

“Bec, if you’re mother finds out I was involved, my mother is going to disown me, especially if she can’t go to any of Catherine’s garden parties.” Erin moved to the vanity table and threw the rest of the make-up back in the cosmetics Caboodle. “You’re right. We should just get out of here before Lucas and Mark sees us. At least, I know neither of them won the bid with Kelly.”

Rebecca froze. “You’re telling me that Mark bid on Kelly?”

Erin met her gaze in the mirror. “I heard one of them yell out a number from the back.”

Anger turned to rage. Her hand clenched a fistful of fishnet and lace as she stared at her reflection. Her blonde wig shined under the dressing room light, her done-up face emphasizing sultry eyes. Bright red lipstick covered her full lips. The swells of her breasts pushed to her chin, and fishnet garters peaked from under the frilly short layers of her skirt. The image in the mirror reminded her of Marilyn Monroe without the mole at her mouth. Though she looked more like a tramp in high-heels than an ice queen, her costume screamed seduction.

Power bloomed in her gut like a fierce energy uncapped.

A knock sounded at the door. “You’re up!”

Rebecca jerked her head toward Erin, whose gaze filled with dread. “Give me my tiara.”

“Yo—you’re going out there?”

With newfound confidence, she smiled at Erin.

“I’m taking Kelly down.”

And Mark Passmore is going to see what he gave up.

You FOUND me! Welcome and I hope you’re having a great time with The In Between Days Blog Hop! I’m supposed to be one of the last stops on this awesome blog hop, so I hope I don’t scare you off to anywhere.

Blurb:

Stubborn and proud cowgirl, Lily McCormick, is finally coming to terms with her quiet life on her parent’s ranch, until her older brother, as payback, signs her up for 1NightStand. Kidnapped and forced onto a plane to a foreign location, she faces the dreaded cold and an unwanted tryst, until her ex-husband appears before her…as her date.

New York City District Attorney, Rafe Martinez, would do anything to get his ex-wife back, even if it meant taking drastic measures to pretend he was there for another woman. When jealousy and rage surfaces and Lily’s tough demeanor wanes, desire and lust sparks their once powerful connection as truths unfold. Will Rafe convince her to return to him or push her further away from giving their love a second chance?

Now that you’ve checked out the books from the In Between Day Blog hop, tell me which was YOUR favorite!

Guess you’ll have to find out.

Rafe Martinez joins her party…unknowing to her, he has ulterior motives. What guy doesn’t?

When they see each other, of course the sparks fly. What suggestions would YOU have for Lily to endure this cold…and this unexpected tryst?

What possible trouble could they get into?

One Lucky Commenter will win a copy of Silent Night’s Seduction before it’s released! Party it out! Contest ends November 29th midnight!
