Release Blitz: Ask Me Why


RELEASE BLITZ
Title: Ask Me Why
Author: Harloe Rae
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 20, 2019




BLURB


One deep breath. Two slow blinks. Three hollow beats.
I’m still here.
After three years, that reminder isn’t as necessary. But everyone has their bad days. This is definitely one of them.
Until an adorable little boy dashes into my store.
His zest for life makes me smile in a way that’s been long lost.
Then I meet his father.
Well, confront is more like it.

Brance Stone is volatile.
Offensive.
Harsh.
And can’t be bothered to care.
Not that I want him to.
I get frostbite just looking into Brance’s glacial stare. But there’s something undeniable about him.

My misery suddenly craves company. The suffocating numbness lifts whenever Brance is near. That alone should have me running in the opposite direction. Try as I might, there’s no avoiding him. If only I could understand why. As if he’d let me.

I don’t ask. He doesn’t tell. A silent, bitter truce settles between us.
That was our first mistake.
It’s certainly not the last.

EXCERPT


Brance’s suit is deliciously rumpled. A naughty gleam lingers in his eyes. Evidence of our kiss lingers on his lips, slightly swollen and red. His hair sticks up in sexy disarray, sections pointing in every direction. I curl my fingers, hiding the guilty offenders. But combing through those silky strands will be committed to memory. I want to do that again, multiple times. But I tamp my trampy side down. For now.


He makes quick work of straightening his tie. “You owe me a story.”


A boulder drops in my gut. “Now?”


Brance sweeps the brown locks off his forehead, erasing more proof of our tryst. “Nah, gotta get back to the office.”


“Already?” I’m still recovering from my orgasm.


He smooths the wrinkles from his shirt. “My schedule leaves no time for deviations. I have a full calendar every day. This indiscretion cost me several hours. I’ll be working late to catch up.”


“Was that a dig at me?”


“Does it matter?”


“Really, Brance? Just like that?”


“Were you expecting something else?”


I open my mouth, then close it. Was I? How could I? Brance smirks at my extended silence.


“That’s what I thought.” He tops it off with a wink for good measure.


“You’re such an—”


“Asshole. Yeah, got it. I don’t have time to rehash the details.”

Braelyn was having a bad day until a little ball of energy darts into her store, making her genuinely smile for the first time in a long time. She loves his zest for life. Then she meets his father. Brance is cold, harsh, and calculating. And the only thing he can be bothered to care about is his son. But there is something undeniable about him. He makes Braelyn feel alive in a way she hasn't felt for three years. She should avoid him, yet she craves him whenever he is near. Has Brance met his match with Braelyn and her smart mouth? 

This book was an enemies to lovers romance full of emotion. Brance is closed off to woman in general given his past, and Braelyn has been through something traumatizing. Both are broken, but are trying to make their way through the world the best way they know how. And when they are together their jagged broken pieces fit together to make something beautiful and unique. I fell in love with Braelyn & Brance's story.  I connected with Braelyn, and related to her, and felt for her. 4⭐ out of 5⭐.

Reread: Broken Bonds

  Title: Broken Bonds  Series: Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: June 2021 After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds. I was sure everything would be okay if I had them. It wasn’t. The fate of our people is in my hands and I know we’re better off if I’m alone. After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure. North, Nox, Gryphon, Atlas, and Gabe may never forgive me but one thing is for sure. I won’t ever forgive myself. *Broken Bonds is a full length reverse harem PNR novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book will end on a cliffhanger. It's recommended for 18+ due to language and sexual situations. Goodreads | Amazon   So I am rereading the Bonds that Tie series to read the newest release Broken Ties.
