Blog Tour: Fortune By Tia Giacalone (High Road Divide #1)








A painter, a poet, a publicist, and a punk-rock princess... the boys of High Road Divide have no idea that this tour will change everything.

Tommy Fortune hadn’t realized he was looking for something different until he meets Cassandra Ryan. Soon their connection blurs the line between fame and reality, and it doesn't take long for Cassandra to follow her inspiration into his world, where paint-stained hands and guitar strings become the basis of their future. But nothing is as perfect as it looks from the outside, and even the most exposed still have secrets to keep. When tour life gets complicated, loyalties will be tested on the road, and they'll both learn that some harsh realities can't be painted over.

What happens when an artist stuck in black and white falls for a musician who only lives in color?

A STANDALONE New Adult Contemporary Romance - intended for readers 18+ due to mature themes.
Stay tuned for Book 2 in the High Road Divide series - CRUZ - coming spring/summer 2017.

Arc Review of How to Tame Beasts and Other Wild Things By A. Wilding Wells


I was given an ARC Copy of this book for an Honest Review.......




Balthazar is a beastly kilt wearing Brit...
Matilda is Betty Crocker, Martha Stewart, Lucille Ball rolled into one....
Add 2 wildly busy, toddlers a hand full of animals, trained mini donkey throw in the kitchen sink and you have How to Tame Beasts and Other Wild Things...



This book has it all....  I mean all! A life time of happenings, one after the other.....
I think maybe the author could have made a novella out of each moment.. publishing an embellish tale each week.... sting us along instead of the heaping helping of frosting on a donuts cake......
The sexy scenes could have been steamier, the connection between Balthazar and Matilda are soo explosive I was kind of left wanting more from their intimate moments......



If you break me, I do not stop working. If you touch me, I may be snared. If you lose me, Nothing will matter. 
Answer: Your Heart 




I never was, am always to be. No one ever saw me, nor ever will. And yet I am the confidence of all. To live and breathe on this terrestrial ball. What am I? 
- The Future 

I while I may not deserve you, its not going to stop me form being audacious enough to take you and selfish enough to keep you. - Balthazar
