Cover Reveal for Rock by J.A. Huss

2/29/2016

 

One of my favorite author's is releasing another book. Let's show her some love. 
Can't wait to get my hands on this one!

Rock
J.A. Huss
Publication date: March 7th 2016
Genres: Rock-star Romantic Suspense

Welcome to RK’s rock star life.

I was living the dream, I was full throttle, all in, one hundred percent on top of the world. But it’s a hell of a long fall back down when you finally crash and burn.

Welcome to the delusions, the final act, the coming-to-Jesus moment when there’s nothing left to do but look yourself in the mirror and ask… How did I get like this?

I am RK’s living nightmare. I am RK’s empty soul. I am RK’s unchecked fantasy world that makes no sense to anyone.

I only have one thing left. Just one girl holding my broken pieces together.

And even she might be a lie.

Rock is a standalone rock-star romantic suspense by the New York Times bestselling master of twist, JA Huss.

Mean & Hateful People

2/27/2016

 
There's a lot of mean people out there and not much you can do about it. I want to talk about it because I know a thing or two about these mean people.
Whether you're in a friendship, relationship or just meeting someone, you will come across people that are hateful for no reason. Or maybe they feel better about themselves by bringing others down. Maybe they enjoy being hateful for some awful reason. Maybe they don't understand that them being mean either verbally or in any other way, they're hurting someone. 
Maybe they just don't care?

I don't understand it. It's mind blowing how mean people and even little kids can be. You know what's worse? When it's a family member that treats you crappy and doesn't even feel bad about it. How sad is that?
Very.

Mostly it's disappointing because you do whatever you can to be nice and keep the person happy and in the end you may even let them take advantage of you. You may even let them use you and you know this bur you're OK with it because you think they will treat you better or at least they'll stop thinking about themselves for a minute to give you the time of day. Yeah, they might do something nice for someone for once.
Maybe.

Then again, maybe they're just horrible people. Who, if they don't like one little thing you do or you disagree with then they treat you like garbage and forget you even mean something to them. Maybe you never did or they wouldn't treat you that way. Right?
It doesn't matter because out of all of the unselfish and really nice things you did, they will call you names and disrespect you like no one else disrespects you.

They might as well be bullies because that's what they do. 

It's funny that some of these people believe in heaven and hell. Although I'm not a religious person, I know people that are and still behave in a way that would earn them a first class ticket to see Satan once their time of being total douches is up.
​
While it makes me sad and angry how these people even exist, they're around. I would avoid them and not get close to them because they'll just complicate your life. Maybe they can change but ti's unlikely since being hateful is all they know.
So feel sorry for them and if you're religious pray that god forgives them for being such shity human beings.

PS. It's my opinion.
PSS. You can take this however you want, I don't care.
PSSS. If you're a mean and hateful person then go away, I don't need your negativity on my blog. :P

If not, feel free to share! :)

The Parenting Thing...

2/25/2016

 

So I've been inspired to write about the parenting thing.
Why? you ask?
Well let's just say that I have zero tolerance for other parents who criticize and judge thinking their shit don't stink. Honestly, you know you're not a perfect parent so please stop trying to tell others how to be one.

Who is sick of strangers, friends and even family thinking they can tell you how to be a parent? Or worse, questioning you?
Yeah, join the club.
I have a big problem with this. It's like breastfeeding, you need to mind your own damn business. If you don't like it, TOO BAD. 

Every parent has a different parenting style. On top of that everyone has a different life style. So that's two things right there that will change how you go about things on a daily basis.

I think there's a very big difference between taking care of your child and SPOILING your child to death that you think you're the best parent in the world. I understand if you want to give your child everything you never had but that doesn't mean it's okay to raise a little brat.
If babysitting my siblings when I was younger taught me anything, I learned you CANNOT buy your child everything they desire and let them run wild hoping they become some kind of brain surgeon. That's NOT going to happen. I've seen it. A lot. Hell, I was one of those kids myself.

I'm not giving advice or saying I'm a perfect parent. Far from it. At least I can admit that. But let me tell you something, my kids have a roof over their head (that I pay for), they eat, they get taken out to places I didn't even go to at their age (like on nice vacations). They're boys so they may not be neat freaks 100% of the time but you know what? They have manners (even though the little one - 2yr old- is picking up some bad habits from other toddlers which we're not letting him get away with).
They pick up after themselves, they know what a bad word is, they know WHO the parent is (not them), they ask for things (not take them) and they WILL BE RESPECTFUL HUMAN BEINGS. I'm not even as strict as some parents can be but I won't let them get away with things they shouldn't do or say.
How many parents can say they are actually teaching and showing their child these things. I'm talking mostly about kids under 10 because I don't have teenagers and I'm sure that's a whole different story. BUT if you don't teach them these things when they're young, they definitely won't learn when they're in their teen years. If they do, well it might be too late. Take me for example, I was pregnant at seventeen and that's not something to be proud of, although I love my Julian. He's the oldest but will forever be my pumpkin. Still, I don't want my kid to get some girl pregnant while he's still in high school, all because I didn't tell him how important school is and what it's like to have a child before you're even twenty. But that's something else that deserves it's own post.

Another thing, when you work 40+ hours a week and you also have to run errands, do housekeeping and whatever else you have to do when you have time, you do what you can to stay sane and STILL manage to do the parent thing.
When you sit on your ass at home and pop ten kids out no problem, live with your in-laws and you're so up your partner's ass you can't see straight, well to put it kindly you are NO ONE to judge ANYONE.

So next time, if you don't have anything nice to say, THEN DON'T FUCKING SAY IT. It's very simple.
​No one likes a hypocrite and that just really reminds the rest of us who are actually trying to RAISE a kid and how pathetic you are for trying to tell someone what they should do when it comes to parenting when you don't even have your life figured out.

I know there's a lot of people that can relate and I hate that there's parents who let their kids listen to garbage music and watch garbage TV, things they shouldn't hear or see because their parents don't care. If you want to raise a child that says bad words and is selfish, isn't polite, doesn't know that NO means NO and gets away with being mean to other kids, then that's on YOU.

Anyway, this wasn't mean to be a rant. But I get so sick and tired of these people and the more I hear it and see it, the more upset it makes me.

Share it if you agree!

Blurb

She spent five years planning a future that will never exist. He spent five years trying to erase a past he can’t forget.

London is Leah Watson’s fresh start. When she secures the perfect internship during her study abroad semester, with an infamous celebrity public relations firm, she is determined to forge her own path - one that is nothing like her life back in Oklahoma. That plan is tested when British football’s bad boy, Killian Ramsey, decides that she's the one he wants and he's playing for keeps.

Will she put her future on hold - again - for the type of man she swore she'd stay away from?

Killian is one bloody good football player. After a tragedy shattered his entire world, the cocky and arrogant face he puts on for the media is a complete lie. When he meets Leah, his heart starts to beat for the first time in years. But when the feelings get too real, his perfectly constructed facade starts to slip.

Will he risk it all to be with her - taking whatever penalties are thrown his way - or will he play it safe?

Excerpt

Trying to dash off to find the British Prince of Moodiness proves difficult in the six-inch stilettos the stylist had strapped onto my feet. I didn't wear clothing like this. I was the Oklahoma girl­next­door, cute and pretty in my sundresses and boots. I didn't do skintight, short or heeled. I could hear the snickers of the PR handlers around me as I stumbled like a baby calf off of the carpet in search of my responsibility.

Turning down the block and moving away from the mayhem, I spotted a tall figure in the shadows. I'd read enough about Jack the Ripper before coming over here to be spooked, but then I saw the shine of a metal flask being raised to the lips, and I could only take one guess as to who that was.

I marched up, as best as I could in the shoes. "You need to come back and walk the red carpet."

Killian's sky­blue eyes twinkled with sly amusement and barely restrained anger. "Oh, and you're going to make me, huh America's Sweetheart?"

The smell of what I'm sure was overly­expensive whiskey blew across my face as he exhaled. He pretended to give an air of nonchalance, but I could read his body language better than he thought I could. He was so coiled and tense, he gave a cobra ready to strike a run for its money. Rage and sorrow poured off of him in waves, blanketing the dark side street in misery so abundant that I could feel it down to my bones. And something else. I don't know why it struck me, perhaps because the emotion was running through my veins as well. But this man...he was lonely.

"You're cheeky, I like that." He raised the flask in a salute to me and tilted his head back as the amber liquid disappeared into that appealing mouth. Damn it. This bad boy with a bad attitude was not going to ruin my career or my time here. I was done letting people decide the future for me, sweeping me along in the current just because I let them.

I knocked the flask straight out of his hand, sending little droplets of whiskey landing on both of us.

"Listen you jackass! I don't know who you are. In fact, I don't care if you're the Prime Minister of this country! This job, I really need it. I'm taking this shot and succeeding at it if it means I have to put my blood, sweat and tears into it. And some London bad boy parading his pissed off attitude around for the world to see is not going to stop me! So button your jacket, plaster a smile on, and get on that carpet!"

My breathing was ragged, all of the energy I'd saved up to get through the event suddenly spent. Jetlag, homesickness and heartbreak were taking over, and I could feel the pull of all three from the inside out.

The leer on Killian's face only proved that my tirade was all for nothing.

And then he moved. It was a blur of motion and speed before my back was against a brick wall. He'd pinned me, like a wolf circling in on their prey. Nervous tremors washed over my flesh, and I could hear the roaring in my ears. I was half­ afraid he would actually rip my throat out for speaking to him that way. The other half of me was too incredibly aroused to care.

"I am bad. But I'm not a boy, I'm a man. Have you ever been with a man, little lamb?" He chuckled darkly, leaning his entire form into me and pinning my hips with his hands. "No, I don't think you have."
