Excerpt
I knew I’d never love anyone my whole life the way I loved him. I read about once-in-a-lifetime events that happen to a tiny minority of people. Since the day I’d met Flynn, there had been two in my life. One where he slashed a gaping hole in my heart and climbed inside, and one where my heart splintered into a million pieces with the death of my brothers. In the short time Flynn had come back into my life, I’d felt things I never thought I would feel again. A damaged heart that healed in response to his love until it wasn’t afraid to pick up the pace when he stared lustily in my direction. A heart that skipped a beat and fluttered at his touch, then squeezed when he said something to me that showed his vulnerable side.

"Everything Is Yours" by K. L. Shandwick

NEW RELEASE and EXCERPT
Everything Is Yours
(An Everything Novella)
by K. L. Shandwick


K. L. Shandwick presents Everything Is Yours, a novella to accompany her Everything Trilogy, out now for only $0.99.





For another book by this author, please check out my blog post on Gibson's Legacy.

Description
Being Floridian born and bred, Alfie Black didn't usually 'do' winters. Lily Parnell, his girl, was from London and used to seasons. Winter was one of her favorites. As famous musicians both were used to living their lives in the limelight. Alfie, a rock legend, and Lily also a rock star in her own right, were propelled to 'Rock Royalty' just by being together.
Add their close friend, Rick Fars, another 'Rock God' into the equation, and it was easy to see how difficult it was to maintain any kind of friendships without the media tagging along looking for the latest scoop. These days one never seemed to be mentioned without the other.
However, a rare window of opportunity in all of their schedules arose and so did Alfie's desire. With Christmas only two weeks away and eight days of downtime, Alfie seized it with both hands.
Three rockers, alcohol, a cabin in the snow, and time on their hands, how does that go down?


Excerpt
Jack smirked knowingly at me and shrugged his shoulders.
“You’ve never done this before, Alfie? Being a rock star must give you an incredible buzz, but you know what you’re getting each time you step out on that stage, right? All those horny women and frenzied male rock fans who adore you. Wait until you feel the buzz from this, I guarantee you it’s something else. With Mother Nature on the stage, you never know what you’re getting, so you need to be ready to adjust and be resourceful to keep yourself and everyone around you safe on the slope.”


Praise for the Book
"I am a big fan of the Everything series. I was so excited, when I heard there was a new book coming out with all my favorite characters. Yes, I did the fan girl squeal when it hit my kindle. I loved this book. I like how K.L. Shandwick wrote this novel in such a way that you can either read it as part of the series or a stand alone. I highly recommend reading it as a series because than you know all the history of the characters. Everything Is Yours is a great addition to the series. I felt like, I was getting to know them all over again. I also gained more insight into their relationships. I love the characters even more now after reading this story. I am sad to see this series come to an end. I can't wait to see what K.L. Shandwick comes out with next." ~ Ann Meemken
"This novella was a lovely read, i thoroughly enjoyed it and I thought it was the perfect ending to this series. It ties up all the loose endings and completes Alfie and Lily's story. There were some very hot scenes between them..they are both rock stars after all! It was brilliant reading about them and all their friends again, it really makes you remember how much these characters mean to you and how involved you become in their lives. It shows how they have all grown, how their lives have changed and how much Alfie and Lily have grown as a couple and dealing with their fame as well as being there for each other. This novella is definitely a must read after reading the others in the series. As a reader I just thought it was a nice ending and a lovely story to tie it all up in!" ~ Sarah
"I loved this novella !!! I honestly didn't think I could love Alfie and Lily any more than I already did..... .!!! Guess what I love them even more now . [...] KL Shandwick ... What can I say that's not already been said? Your freaking rock at writing and I simply can't wait for your next adventure !!!!! Congratulations on another fantastic piece !!" ~ Leigh
"All I can say is what a treat, KL Shandwick delivers another amazing book." ~ RomanceReadrz


About the Author
K. L. Shandwick lives on the outskirts of London. Her background has been mainly in the health and social care sector in the U.K.
K. L. says, "Writing came relatively later in life for me after a challenge by a friend led to The Everything Trilogy. I love creating new characters and story lines. Writing is a form of escapism from my day job, which can be difficult at times. I have worked in the health and social care sector for most of my adult life, so to have the opportunity to step out of this serious role and create colourful characters is very rewarding. I enjoy where they take me and each character has his or her own voice. I don't use prepared outlines for my stories preferring the characters to take their own direction as the story progresses."

"Gibson's Legacy" by K. L. Shandwick

NEW RELEASE and EXCERPT
Gibson's Legacy
(Last Score Book 1)
by K. L. Shandwick


K. L. Shandwick is currently on tour with her latest release, Gibson's Legacy. She stops by today to share an excerpt.


Description
Gibson Barclay has been famous for almost seven years and he's only twenty four.
Seldom does anyone pick up a magazine, newspaper or watch a television entertainment show, without seeing his image or reading about his promiscuous antics. He had no need to court publicity with his magnetic charm and charismatic ways; when he chooses to cooperate that is. Shrugging off the advice of publicists and image consultants, Gibson makes no excuses for who he is, and with no ties, he answers to no one about how he chooses to live his life.
From teenage musician to twenties mega rock star, Gibson has seen and done it all. Women fantasize about him and men envy his rock scene, womanizing lifestyle. Only one person ever made Gibson feel uncomfortable about the way he lived his life. No one ever said no to him that he can remember, although there was two minute events that he has never been able to shake from his mind. Both of those events involved the way Chloe Jenner looked at him. It was something and nothing, but for him, the impact haunted him. In the strangest twist of fate, something so wildly obscure occurred, that set his mind ablaze with the memory of that small encounter.
Like all women, Chloe found Gibson striking and had even shared with friends, her own guilty fantasy about him. Fantasy and reality were poles apart and Chloe believed that Gibson Barclay never even knew that she existed.
Note: Adult Contemporary Romance – Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not suitable for readers under the age of eighteen.

Excerpt
Hands invaded my body space and ran up and across my pectorals, my head dropping to see what she was doing. She glided her palms around and under my arms, until they stopped on both scapula bones on my back.
Stroking me, she smiled suggestively and continued to trail downwards toward my ass, and by the time I made eye contact with her, she was so close her hot panting breaths were fanning over my face.
Groupies had no shame. Then again, I was so fucking wired after the gig, I needed something to bring me down, and an easy fuck meant I didn’t have to be charming or polite to anyone. This girl knew the score and she was begging for it.
