Blog Tour Schedule Rough Around the Edges Meets Refined by Rachael Anderson For Noah Mackie, life is finally back on track. He has a great support system, a promised promotion is on its way, and he's finally getting the hang of this single father thing. But when the job falls through and his neighbor's matchmaking efforts become more aggressive, Noah is in for yet another unwanted detour.

Published October 8th 2014 by Evernight Teen Chloe needs a place to crash for the summer before college. When Chris offers, she moves in with him. It’s just for two months, no biggie. But soon she realizes she may have made a mistake. He's too perfect—a former snowboarder, laid-back and kind to boot. And he’s smitten with her.

Hands Off! The 100 Day Agreement by Candy J. Starr   Publication date: December 5th 2014 Genres: New Adult, Romance One hundred days without sex? Is that even possible? When I got offered an exchange year to the Italian art school of my dreams, I nearly cried. I could barely afford college expenses at home let alone in a foreign country. I had to decline but my rich, uptight grandmother called with her screwed up offer. If I agreed to her conditions, she’d foot the bill. So I agreed. I figured she didn’t really care about my sex life, she just wanted me to keep my partying off the radar of her fancy friends. I was so wrong. The sexy but annoying Chad moved into my apartment to keep me under surveillance. He’s impervious to my charms and for some damn reason, dead set on making sure I lose this deal. One hundred days is a helluva long time to avoid temptation – even longer when Chad becomes the temptation. Goodreads , B&N , Amazon AUTHOR BIO: Ca...
