Rescuing Emily by Susan Stoker Blog Tour!


Rescuing Emily (Delta Force Heroes Book 2) by Susan Stoker

Date of Publication: July 19, 2016

Blurb


Renting out the apartment over his garage shouldn't be a life-changing decision, but when Delta soldier Cormac "Fletch" Fletcher meets Emily Grant, he feels an instant connection. He can't stand the thought of Emily and her young daughter living anywhere unsafe. Offering cheap rent is a small price to pay for their safety…and Fletch's peace of mind.

Being a single mother is difficult at best, but renting the extremely affordable space from Fletch makes Emily's life a lot easier…until it doesn't. Suddenly all the money she's saving thanks to Fletch's generosity is going into the hands of a blackmailer. And what little food Emily can afford goes to her daughter Annie, so the girl doesn't go to bed hungry…leaving Emily weaker and weaker.

When miscommunication has Emily assuming Fletch is in on the blackmail, he not only has to gain her trust, but also deal with a man holding a grudge against Fletch and his entire Delta Force team. A task made more difficult when the dangerous man gets his hands on Emily and Annie...

** Rescuing Emily is the 2nd book in the Delta Force Heroes Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

Review:

I love love love this book! There were so many moments where I moaned and groaned over the actions of the main characters but it was that kind of thing where you see a friend doing something and want to say something but at the same time know it probably won't do much good. In fact all of the characters, including Annie felt like friends that you were watching go through their life. The plotline was quite interesting and the small peeks we had into the villan's head was intriquing just as much as it was slightly frustrating because you wanted so badly for Fletch to get a clue!

The book was well written as all of Susan Stoker's books are and I'm interested in seeing how the rest of the team's stories go!

Pretty things aren't meant to be broken.

She will.
It's inevitable.

unlocking the memories I helped her father bury--I can't.
She was the apple in the Garden, dangled in front of me, her

I bit.
I tasted.
I fell.

Sacrifice by Adriana Locke Release Boost!






Title: Sacrifice
Author: Adriana Locke
 Release Date: July 13, 2015




Blurb


My life changed forever the night my husband died.



I was left with a shattered heart, a heap of bills, and our daughter, EVERLEIGH. I don’t want to rely on anyone, least of all CREW GENTRY. He’s my first love and the man who almost destroyed me, the man who has let me down every time I’ve needed him.



But when tragedy strikes a second time, Crew just might be my only hope.





My life changed forever the night my brother died.



I was left with a guilty conscience, a pile of mistakes, and little else. I take care of JULIA GENTRY, my brother’s widow and the love of my life, and their daughter. I know she doesn’t want my help, but she gets it anyway. I owe her that. When another disaster hits, I’m given the opportunity to make things right. I’m taking it. I'm willing to sacrifice it all.

Excerpt





“She’s been missing him a lot lately.”



Julia’s voice is barely a whisper and my chest constricts. Our conversations don’t normally make it to discussing Gage unless we’re already arguing. The fact that she just brought it up shocks me and I’m not comfortable with it. I don’t know how to take it. I feel my jaw pulse with frustration and scramble to change the subject again. “Why is it so chilly in here?”



Her smile disappears and she tugs her sweatshirt nervously. “I didn’t know it was.”



“How can you possibly not know?” I start to the thermostat across the room when she clears her throat.



“The heater isn’t working right. I asked Lane to come by and look at it earlier this week.”



“And he hasn’t been here yet?” I shoot her a look and she shakes her head. “He’ll be here tonight.” I dig my cell outta my pocket.



“Crew, don’t. Please. The last time you called my landlord he was a complete jerk to me for a couple of months. I just got on good terms with him again.”



I scroll through my contacts list, looking for his name.



“Crew ...” I know her doe-eyes are pleading with me. I also know if I look up at her, I’ll be somewhat inclined to give in. So I don’t.

REVIEW:

This book. Wow, there are hardly any words to mention when talking about Sacrifice. There were tears, and laughter and just general romanticness and sighworthy moments. There were so many feelings that I just couldn't contain them.

It's obvious that both Julia and Crew are not over the death of her husband and his brother. And it's also obvious that both hold guilt or pain over the perceived reason for Gage's death. 

This book was painful but beautiful. Adriana Locke has created a masterpiece with Sacrifice. And I can't help but say that you should definitely read this book! With tissues nearby.
