Blurb:

“A vibrant and dynamic retelling of Louis XII and Anne of Brittany’s life."—Publishers Weekly BookLife Prize

“… a captivating drama.”—Kirkus Reviews

The year is 1508. Louis XII, King of France, wants to stamp France’s footprint upon Italy.

Anne of Brittany, Queen of France, and ruler of neighboring realm Brittany, wants to produce a son and heir for Louis and to save the independence of Brittany from France.

Louise of Savoy, the mother of the king’s intended successor, the future Francis I, wants to see her son on the throne of France.

All three have suffered the twisting of their fates by Anne de Beaujeu, the spider king’s daughter, who ruled France from 1483-1491. Two shake off her shadow; one does not.

One sees their dreams come true; two do not. But in this game of thrones, winners lose and losers win the greatest prize of all.

Anne and Louis Forever Bound is the standalone fourth and final novel of the award-winning Anne of Brittany Series.

Star football player Jace Rovers has a secret. And not just any secret—a shocking secret… He writes romance. The kind with swords. And dresses. And kissing. 

 

Nobody knows. Not the other kids at Twin River High. Not his overbearing parents. And certainly not the millions of fans who’ve read his book on the writing platform Scribbles. And that’s the way he plans to keep it.

 

Except suddenly one of the other football players grabs his notebook in jest and starts reading a kissing scene out loud…and Jace knows he’s busted.

 

But then McKenna Storm, resident goth girl who avoids the spotlight like a virus, snatches up the notebook and tells everyone she's the author. And lucky for Jace, she later agrees to continue the ruse...for a price.

 

Heck, he'd give her anything not to reveal his secret. But when they start to fall for each other, he knows he'll have to keep the biggest secret of all—his darkest character is based on her…

Cover Love (Why you love the cover)

From Lynn:  It’s just so cute. Totally reminds me of my high school years. Some good memories and some not so good, which brings in all the feels. Kind of like the book. It’s a fun cover for sure!

From Kelly Anne: I’m totally in love with the GUTTER GIRL cover! It definitely brings me back to high school and all of the nostalgia that comes with it! I’m a big fan of the bright pink title and how it pops against the background. I also love how this cover looks like a page out of a yearbook! The next two books in the Twin River High series, PROJECT PERSONALITY and CHAOS THEORY follow the same theme. All three books look so cute next to each other!

COVER REVEAL ~ Betting Blind by Loren Beeson


Title: Betting Blind
Author: Loren Beeson
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Cover Designer: Emily Wittig
Publication Date: June 18th, 2021
Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR

Blurb:

Cassidy Smith is desperate for some excitement. Her free-spirited best friend keeps her on her toes with the occasional misadventure but deep down, she just needs...more. When the girls stumble into a bar one night known for its bad reputation and a tattooed, bad-boy owner, Cassidy‘s left daydreaming what it would be like to ditch her boring life and find a way to fit in with the rough and rowdy crowd of The Pound.

Jack Campbell’s got a one-track mind. He works hard to provide for the guys who work for him and even harder to keep his bar running in tip-top shape. He can’t afford the temptation of Cassidy being more than a temporary employee, but against his better judgment, he offers the beautiful blonde a job at his bar. Things get more complicated for Jack as his older brother starts stirring up trouble in an underground casino in town, etching a target on his back, and forcing him into a world he promised never to turn back to.

With their hearts on the table and a deck full of secrets, will Jack and Cassidy bet it all... or give up their hand?




Loren is a dreamer, artist, radiologic technologist, and author who loves animals and people. Always writing short stories as a young child and young adult, she knew she wanted to become an author someday. The Art of Loving Ellie is Loren’s debut novel.

Loren can be found in her cozy home in Texas with her nose in a book, her corgi and mini aussie on her lap, and her son trailing along with her and her husband through their many adventures.
