Release Blitz: Jacob by VH Nicolson

 

Title: Jacob

Series: The Boys of Castleview Cove #2

Author: VH Nicolson

Genre: Steamy Contemporary Romance

Release Date: November 17, 2022

BLURB

Once upon a time… You know the story… prince meets princess. Evil thwarts their love, and the prince must fight for her heart. Good always wins and there is a stunning wedding at the castle on the hill.

I used to dream of having a fairy tale love story of my own, but I don’t think the author of mine got the memo because right now, I’m shackled to a bed, scared for my life.

My story started with an ambivalent prince whose parents reminded me constantly that I simply wasn’t good enough for him.

When I broke free, a new hero stepped forward.

My boss, and my ex's best friend. Jacob.

Broad, toned, and dripping in ink that he tried to hide from me.

Turns out, I’ve been looking for my happy ever after in all the wrong places and he’s been here, waiting for me since I was sixteen.

Except, he made a teenage pact. An unbreakable bro-code with my ex. Never touch each other’s past girlfriends. Ever.

So we resist.

Although it’s amazing how much naughtiness you can get up to without touching.

But this is more than just lust, this is love and real love always gets a happy ending, right? If we explain, my ex has to understand… especially since he’s already engaged to someone else.

But, even I have to admit, this doesn’t look good. I can’t see how I will get out of this mess.

I wanted my fairy tale, but right now I'd settle for a chance to at least kiss my prince.

Jacob

Feeling the weight of my gaze, she turns to face me.

I want to look at her face forever.

She closes the distance between us, then reaches up and runs her fingertip along the skin of my cheek. I have to remind myself to breathe.

“You look tired, Jay.” She looks concerned and she never calls me Jay anymore, not since high school.

“Didn’t get much sleep last night.” I confess.

I blink. She blinks.

“No?” When she cups her hand around my jaw I find myself automatically leaning into her soft touch.

I shake my head. “I can’t stop thinking about you.”

“Same.”

“We can’t happen, Skye.” And all I want to do is kiss you until my dying breath.

“I know.”

She’s clueless how much she means to me.

I force my eyes closed when she runs her hand to the back of my neck and pulls my forehead down to meet hers.

I squeeze her other hand that’s wrapped in mine tighter.

Her sweet breath warms my skin.

“How long have you liked me Jacob?” She says softly.

Not this again.

I groan.

I let go of her hand, wrap my arm around her waist, pulling her in close to me.

“Jay.” She gasps, a sweet melody that lights up all my senses. “Touch me.”

The devil on my shoulder tells me to give in while the angel on the other tells me to put a stop to this stupid infatuation.

I move my mouth to the shell of her ear. “We have a meeting to attend. I’ll leave you to freshen up.” I slide my hand from her waist and bolt for the door.

Too close.

Too goddamn close.

Release Blitz: Lincoln by VH Nicolson

 

Title: Lincoln

Series: The Boys of Castleview Cove #1

Author: VH Nicolson

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Release Date: July 14, 2022

BLURB

Love is for suckers.

It’s one of the reasons I’m here in L.A. on the other side of the world from my home in Scotland and the five-star hotel I run with my dad.

I’m sick of watching everyone else’s happy ever afters from the sidelines. I mean, if my own mother left me as a baby, what hope do I have of finding a woman who wants to stick around?

I’ve spent months traveling, surfing and working on my tan, but my need to work led me to take a temporary job in a gym for six weeks before I fly home.

What could possibly change in six weeks?

Apparently quite a lot.

I could meet someone who rocks my world with her killer curves, hypnotic hips and her purple dresses that leave little to the imagination.

She could ask me to take a leap of faith with her I can’t resist taking.

She could get me so hot and bothered I end up in the emergency room.

She could invite me into her home, introduce me to her dog that looks like a walking cloud, and break me out of my self-inflicted sex sabbatical.

She could show me what it feels like to be loved, so I never want to leave.

Violet West walked into my life and changed things forever. It’s just a shame that good things never last.

*****

Lincoln is a steamy standalone, dual point of view, learning to love romantic comedy with a Happy Ever After, with no cliffhangers.

Lincoln is Book 1 in The Boys of Castleview Cove Series.

EXCERPT

I push my feelings way down. After all, I was the one who said it could just be fun.

So why does it not feel like that suddenly?

Lincoln’s head falls forward. His mouth finds mine and he kisses me with such gentleness and intimacy.

He tenderly nuzzles into my neck. “You feel like the part of me that’s been missing.” I’m not sure he meant to say that out loud. He’s so quiet.

I suck in a breath and my heart flutters in my chest.

It’s then I realize, deep down within him, the little abandoned boy still lives there.

My real life lost boy. I want to spend every hour with him to keep him safe and heal those broken parts.

His soft lips kiss my neck.

In his strong arms, I feel so adored. So wanted, needed, completely treasured and coveted.

I’ve never before had anyone pay me such special attention.

His lips find mine and we kiss slowly.

He sucks my tongue into his mouth and butterflies dance in my stomach at how much in tune we are with one another.

I thought our intimate encounter would douse the fire that’s been burning between us the past couple of days to get us out of each other’s systems, but it hasn’t. All it’s done is make it burn brighter and hotter.

“I want to lick every part of you, my sweet Petal.” He’s so quiet when he talks, barely a whisper.

My sweet Petal.

My heart just gave out.

“I’ve been desperate to go home to Scotland. Now I don’t want to leave,” he mumbles inaudibly.

“Fate is messing with us.”

“I hate fate. It’s not my friend.” He pulls me closer, engulfing me with his addictive scent.

“It’s not mine either.”

We only have six weeks.
