HERE'S TODAY'S BOOK OF THE DAY  

In Cassie Stevens' new release, some ancient histories are best left unexcavated...

Given their occupation as archaeologists, Rick Ramone and Val Lancaster were destined to meet. The two men even knew the date and time - until someone else's agenda pushed them together sooner than they'd anticipated. All Rick and Val want - besides each other - is to research ancient civilizations, not trek through the dirty, dense, and dangerous Central American rainforest on a rescue mission that weaves suspicion with every step.

A tangled web of lies. The refuse of someone else's past affairs. With each strand of deceit unfurled, Rick and Val discover they have much more in common than a degree in archaeology.

This book is also available in trade paperback.

 


 

 

To enter for your chance to win a free download of today's book of the day, read the excerpt to find out what news Rick's father brought him.  Email your answer to AuthorIsland at yahoo.com, along with your name and address. Please put Book of the Day in the subject line. 

GOOD LUCK and don't forget to check back to see what great book we have up for grabs tomorrow!

After spending her life trying to avoid the men, she's even more shocked when, ten years later, the two in question discover her existence and don't want to let her out of their sight.

Red Hot Release From Lorelei James And Samhain Publishing

She's the match, he's the fuse...an explosive combination in this new release from Lorelei James.

Wild West Boys, Book 2

One year ago Willow Gregory entered the Miss Firecracker contest on a dare - and ended up with the crown. As a working carpenter, she's not exactly the tears-and-tiara type, and after a year of walking the straight and narrow she's ready to cut loose.

Waking up in a sexy stranger's bed with no memory of the havoc she wreaked the night before wasn't quite what she had in mind. Nor was agreeing to his mandate - work for him at the tavern until she repays the damage. Or go to jail.

Blake West thinks he could possibly be the only man alive who could say no to a drunken, horny, naked beauty queen. There's something about the former Miss Firecracker that makes him want to blow his Mr. Nice Guy persona all to hell.

It helps that Willow is ready to dive headfirst into a no-heartstrings-attached affair. Which fits in perfectly with Blake's temporary gig managing his friend's bar.

Every grinding kiss, every stolen touch leads to another...until a harmless little white lie becomes the detonator that could explode their chances at a happily ever after.

Warning: this light-hearted beach read features a hero hotter than the 4th of July and a feisty heroine who knows exactly how to pop his top.
