Love by Design (Irresistible Billionaires Book 4) by Ashley Bostock Blog Tour and Giveaway!




Title: Love by Design (Irresistible Billionaires Book 4) 
Author: Ashley Bostock 
Genre: Contemporary Romance 
Release Date: May 14th, 2019 
Cover Designer: Bookin' it Designs 
Cover Model: Daniel Rendering 
Photographer: Golden Czermak 



Billionaire CEO Zander Morgan hates to lose. To anyone. He also hates the fact that he is well-known for the architectural design app he created years ago and not for his more meaningful skills as an architect. This year, he is going to up the ante. The Architectural Award only comes out every three years and this year nothing is going to stop him from putting his name on it. With the designs he has for The Rink, he’s sure the award will be his…So long as he can keep his sexy little poker-playing opponent to stop her petition.
Jade Devereaux loves her job as a landmark preservationist. Preserving history is important for all generations—if only she could get her landlord to agree. Receiving notice that The Rink is going through a large overhaul, she comes up with a plan to stop renovations. It is, after all, the same building her parents got engaged in forty some years ago. It is a place where her mere existence was created.
Jade already lost her mother and with her dad now dying too, Jade is more determined than ever to do anything to honor her parent’s love story. Learning that the tall, dark and handsome man she plays poker with is the same man who is going to renovate the building, gives Jade a run for her money.
Already having a crush on Zander—he’s definitely a five-card stud—and finding out he’s the one that has plans to destroy part of the building, has Jade going all in. Will her attempts to stop construction push Zander to fold? Or is it possible that by saving her parent’s love story, she’s also making her own?

National bestselling author Lucy Burdette’s intrepid food critic Hayley Snow must sniff out a killer in the ninth Key West Food Critic mystery.
Key West food critic Hayley Snow scents-es something fishy when a customer falls stone-crab cold dead on a seafood tasting tour.
Thanksgiving is nearly here, and Key West food critic Hayley Snow has just one more assignment to put to bed for Key Zest magazine before she gets to celebrate with her family and her police officer fiancé, Nathan Bransford. Then, just days later, wedding bells will ring—if death doesn’t toll first.
The sweet potatoes and stuffing will have to wait when Hayley picks up a distraught phone call from her friend, Analise Smith. On the last stop of a seafood tasting tour run by Analise, one of the customers collapsed—dead. With the police on the verge of shutting down the tour—and ruining Analise’s business—Hayley can hardly refuse her friend’s entreaties to investigate.
As if wedding jitters and family strife weren’t enough for Hayley to worry about, there’s crusty pastry chef Martha Hubbard, whose key lime pie may have been the murder weapon—but did she poison her own pie or was she framed? As the hours to Turkey Day tick away, the pressure cooker is on for Hayley to serve up the culprit on a silver platter in A Deadly Feast, national bestselling author Lucy Burdette’s taste-tempting ninth Key West Food Critic mystery.

Guest book review by Carly Wilson

‘Killer Lawyer’ is the third book in the ‘Jake Wolfe’ series by Mark Nolan, and it was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed this book and became completely immersed in the plot from the onset. It was fast-paced, thrilling and a complete page-turner.

The book centre’s around ex-marine turned lawyer/ government assassin Jake Wolfe, who partakes in numerous secret government missions, with his trusty well- trained and highly intelligent dog Cody.

After the drama of previous missions, Jake is trying to lay low and lead a somewhat normal life. His girlfriend Sarah after witnessing the danger of Jake in action is pulling away from him, and he tries to settle living on one of his friends boats. But when a serial killer strikes, randomly gunning down victims including one of Wolfe’s neighbours Marion, he is unable to stop himself from hunting down the culprit.

But what happens when you become a suspect in the process of the chase? Will the killer actually get away with murder?

Nolan is a new author to me, and I absolutely loved his writing style. The story is told from varying character perspectives, enabling you to get into the mindset of not only the killer, but even Cody. It is the perfect way to allow you to understand the complexity of each character and really drew me in as a reader.

I loved how intune Jake and Cody are, it is a true mans best friend relationship, and they work well as a team. You understand Jake’s girlfriend Sarah’s fears over the danger that Jake puts himself in, but you always want them to be happy and together for their happily ever after.

I have not read any of the previous books in this series, but I found that it didn’t matter in terms of this story and that you can easily read it as a stand-alone. The book has something for everyone; romance, suspense, shocking plot twists and drama. It was an absolutely pleasure to read such an entertaining and gripping book, and I’d recommend to all thriller lovers.

I am so unbelievably excited for the next book!

By Tracy Richardson

Paperback: 200 pages
April 23, 2019
Genre: YA, Sci-fi, paranormal
Eric Horton sees fire.

When he sleeps, he dreams of a world screaming in the midst of devastating explosions. These dreams terrify him, and as more strange happenings unfold around him, he’s unable to shake the feeling that what he’s seeing isn’t just a dream.

When a new student, Renee, appears in his science class, he could swear he’s known her forever. But how could that be? As they get to know each other, he meets her father, who explains the experiments he’s been conducting involving “the Universal Energy Field” and “Collective Consciousness”—two things Eric has never heard of before. They seem to be tied to the idea that we are all connected by the same energy and are all more powerful than we realize. Eric begins to learn more about these groundbreaking concepts—but can they be real?

As his life continues to shift and his knowledge of the Field increases, Eric will be tested beyond anything he’s experienced before. He must decide whether he believes in that part of himself which ties him to the world around him, and he must access it—or lose 
everything he’s been working to keep.

                     Tracy Richardson

Tracy wasn’t always a writer, but she was always a reader. Her favorite book growing up was A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle. In a weird way her life reflects the book through odd synchronicities. She has a degree in Biology like Mrs. Murry and without realizing it she named her children Alex and Katie after Meg’s parents. (Really, it was not intentional, because that would be weird)!

Tracy uses her science background in her writing through her emphasis on environment issues and metaphysics. Growing up, Tracy’s younger brothers called her ‘sarge’ and once when she took a personality test for a job, the evaluator said she could give a Drill Sargent a run for his money. If you need someone to boss you around, Tracy’s your gal! Tracy lives in Indianapolis.
