Ignite by Tessa Teevan
Four Stars
Ignite is the story of Alexa and Jace, two high school best friends who'd always felt more for each other but never said anything until the night before Jace leaves for the Army.
They meet up again at the ten year high school reunion. In their ten years apart Alexa has been married and lost her husband.
This story of getting a second chance at love with your best friend was sweet, (hot at times) and wonderful. A great first book from Tessa Teevan
After nearly a year and a half of grieving the loss of her husband, twenty-seven year old Alexa Sullivan Tate is headed back to her hometown after a decade of being away. She has no idea her high school crush, Jace McAllister, the guy who stole her heart the same night that he broke it, is more than ready to pick up the pieces.
Jace has spent the last ten years in the Army defusing bomb after bomb,
trying to forget the girl who ignited all his passions. Little does he know
that the spark still exists.
Ten years ago they had smoldering chemistry, but the spark between them
now might light a fuse that leads to an explosion even Jace can't stop. Not
that he wants to. If only Alexa can get past her guilt and trust her heart
again.
But how do you put it all on the line when you've already lost
everything once before?
*While this is a series, each book will be
standalone with spinoff characters.

Excerpt
I look around the bar and
immediately spot him. Holy shit, he’s even more gorgeous than before, I think
as my eyes roam over him. My heart races like I’ve just run miles to get here,
and my eyes cannot move from his. He looks just like Jace, but not the one I
remember. He’s older, and rugged, not quite like the high school senior I
remember. My eyes widen as I take in the bicep I’m pretty sure I couldn’t wrap
my hand around. Hello muscles, I think as I try to force away the image of him
hauling me up into his big arms and having his way with me.
I shake the thoughts away as I sweep
my eyes over the rest of him. He’s wearing a plain black t-shirt that showcases
the definition in his arms, and I can’t look away. I swear he flexes a little
when he sees me looking as I witness a thick vein stretching across his
forearm. I can see the beginnings of a tattoo peeking out from under his right
sleeve, and I’m dying for further inspection. His dark hair is buzzed short in
a standard military-style cut and his jaw is more squared than I remember. His full lips attract my attention as he
wraps them around the beer bottle he’s taking a drink from, and I involuntarily
shudder at the memory of where those lips have touched me.
His blue eyes penetrate mine as he’s
watching me, but his face is blank, so I have no idea if he even recognizes me.
Bullshit, he knows exactly who you are. His eyebrows are drawn together, and I
watch him take a deep breath as he plays with his beer bottle. Ryan sets me on
the ground, and I take this chance to look down and turn away from him. I
barely register what Ryan and Jeremy are talking about when Sierra grabs my
hand and drags me to the bar.
About the Author
I'm a twenty six year old
book junkie who is also obsessed with sports. Bengals, Buckeyes, Reds are my
teams! I work for the government during the day, hang out with Air National
Guard on the weekends, and am married to a guy 15 inches taller than me. We're
quite the pair! We currently live right outside of Dayton, OH with our two
cats.
I've been reading since I
was a kid. My mom was a librarian, so it was a given. Heck, she even made sure
we watched Wishbone instead of the Smurfs. In 2011 when I graduated from
college, my mom bought me a Nook, and then in the summer of 2012 I found this
amazing site called Goodreads. I was introduced to so many amazing
indie/self-published authors. After reading almost 400 books that year, my
husband gave me the push to finally sit down and write my own. It was a rocky
start, but over time the words started flowing and I couldn't get Jace and Lexi
out of my head.
If I’m not writing or looking
through tons of photos of hot men, all in the name of research, then you can
probably find me curled up with my Kindle, ignoring the rest of the world. I
love my sports almost as much as I love my books. My other obsessions include
red wine, hot men, country music, and all things Grace Potter.

But deep in the South Carolina Lowcountry, dark, mysterious forces encroach, conspiring to separate Emma and Cooper forever. When Cooper starts to change, turning cold and indifferent, Emma discovers that both his heart and body are marked for possession by competing but equally powerful adversaries.
Desperate to save him, Emma and her twin brother, Jack, risk their lives to uncover the source of the black magic that has allured Cooper and holds him in its grip. Faced with the horror of a soul-eating boohag, Emma and Jack must fight to resist its fiendish power to free Cooper long enough to join their strengths and face it together, before it destroys them all.

When eighteen-year-old Hunter Jackson and his half sister, Ashlin, return to their dad’s for the first winter in years, they expect everything to be just like the warmer months they’d spent there as kids. And it is—at first. But Chance, the charismatic and adventurous boy who made their summers epic, is harboring deep secrets. Secrets that are quickly spiraling into something else entirely.
The reason they’ve never met Chance’s parents or seen his home is becoming clearer. And what the siblings used to think of as Chance's quirks—the outrageous stories, his clinginess, his dangerous impulsiveness—are now warning signs that something is seriously off.
Then someone turns up with a bullet to the head, and all eyes shift to Chance's family. Hunter and Ashlin know Chance is innocent...they just have to prove it. But how can they protect the boy they both love when they can’t trust a word Chance says?

Trapped in the deadly land of Nerissette, Allie has all but given up on any return to the mortal realm. Unless she can find the two elusive artifacts that have the power to get her and her friends back home.
But she’s got even bigger problems as the newly crowned queen of Nerissette: she must unite her people in the midst of a civil war and capture the Fate Maker—the evil puppet master responsible for the conflict—before he can find another army willing to return him to power.
On top of it all, Allie is just a normal teenager. Her feelings are growing for the guy she’s certain is her true love, and balancing her personal life while being the queen isn’t as easy as it sounds. Allie must learn the true meaning of bravery, love, and kinship, regardless of the world—and danger—around her.

After being pushed to excel her entire life, high school basketball star Genna Pierce is finally where she wants to be. University scouts are taking notice, her team is on its way to the state tourney, and Jake Butler, the hot boy she's daydreamed about since ninth grade, is showing some definite interest. When he asks her out and their relationship takes off, Genna believes things can't get better.
Then, it's over.
A freak accident ends her career before it's even begun. Her parents are fighting more than ever, her friends don't understand what she's going through, and she's not sure who she is without basketball. And while he tries to be there for her, Genna doesn't understand how Jake could ever want the broken version of the girl he fell for.
Her life in a tailspin, Genna turns to the only solace that eases her pain: Vicodin.

Reveal and ReRelease of THE GATHERING: Book One of the Lia Fail Chronicles by S.L. Dearing
The Gathering: Book
One of the Lia Fail Chronicles is the first in a new Paranormal, Fantasy, and Adventure Series.
Another world war
has happened and everything we knew is now gone. There are no more
countries. No more government... only
survivors who have created a new world made up of small colonies. It has been
thirteen years and the village of Lia Fail sits peacefully above the
Hollywood Reservoir in the Santa Monica Mountains. The settlement is making ready to host the
fall Gathering, a time where every six months the other colonies from various
parts of what was once Southern California visit for ten days of fun and
reminiscence. The Gathering begins as
any other party. A time for new loves,
old friends, family, dancing and fun, but all too soon that changes. The people in Lia Fail begin to experience
strange goings on they can't explain, unseen forces attack several guests and
friends begin to distrust friends. When
they receive news of a horrific massacre, they realize they must face an
impending dark evil that threatens to descend on the tranquil village.
Alia Stark, the
queen of Lia Fail, must face this darkness.
But she will face the evil along side her oldest and dearest friends, as
well as an amazing new ally. The fate of
her people, the lives of her children and freedom itself rests in her
hands. Will she have the courage to do
what must be done?
This is the
beginning of a journey that will change all of their lives forever.
Join us October 5
from 3-7pm PST on Facebook for a grand party event. There will be games and prizes from LOTS of
authors and Swag artists. Please come
and join the fun!!
