ROBsessed Giveaway: 6 years of ROBsessed is SUBLIME and so are 6 winners for this Fiction Friday!

ROBsessed Giveaway: 6 years of ROBsessed is SUBLIME and so are 6 winners for this Fiction Friday!

Have you visited our birthday post and entered our birthday giveaway HERE?
We're still celebrating 6 years of ROBsessed and this Fiction Friday joins the theme!

 photo Robsessed6thBirthday-WM-1.jpg

We've had multiple Fiction Friday giveaways for our gal pals, Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings, but we have something pretty special for this week. Just in time for Halloween! ;)

While we know Christina Lauren can burn up the pages with their sexy romps (Beautiful Bastard Series, Wild Seasons Series), they had yet to venture into the Young Adult genre - until now. SUBLIME is their first YA novel and I can't help but be nostalgic about this since a little known YA novel called Twilight pretty much got all of us started in this community.

I was pulled into this supernatural story from the cover alone but the synopsis is truly compelling:
 photo 51Nj-DEW9L.jpg
When Lucy walks out of a frozen forest, wearing only a silk dress and sandals, she isn’t sure how she got there. But when she sees Colin, she knows for sure that she’s here for him. Colin has never been captivated by a girl the way he is by Lucy. 
With each passing day their lives intertwine, and even as Lucy begins to remember more of her life—and her death—neither of them is willing to give up what they have, no matter how impossible it is. 
And when Colin finds a way to physically be with Lucy, taking himself to the brink of death where his reality and Lucy’s overlap, the joy of being together for those brief stolen moments drowns out everything in the outside world. 
But some lines weren’t meant to be crossed…
And from ChristinaLaurenBooks.com
Love is beautiful, dangerous, scary, sublime. 
From the moment she sees Colin, Lucy knows she’s meant for him. But their love is no ordinary love; Lucy is a ghost, and Colin can only physically be with her when he’s standing on the brink of his own death. 
Willing to give anything for their stolen moments together, Colin pushes his daredevil tendencies to the extreme time and again. But as he becomes obsessed with testing the limits between his world and that of the dead, Lucy begins to wonder if she’s meant to be his guardian—or his destruction.
Sounds so wonderfully angsty and fantastically romantic. :)

Wedding bells can't chime soon enough for Chloe Mills and Bennett Ryan. 
Chloe, exasperated and stressed by all the last-minute to-dos, is on the verge of saying "I do" to eloping. 
For his part, Bennett's so worried about being distracted by Chloe's body that he makes a no-sex-until-the-wedding-night rule that only seems to be making things worse by continually backfiring on him.

 photo Beautiful-Bombshell.jpgThe awesome publishers at Simon & Schuster have released the latest in the Beautiful Bastard series and they have some great prizes for our readers!

Beautiful Bombshell, by Christina Lauren, was released yesterday and it's the 4th book in the BB series. Here's the synopsis:
Chloe and Bennett's love affair from Beautiful Bastard continues in the latest novella from New York Times best selling author Christina Lauren. When the groom-to-be and his bachelor-party-crashing bride invade the Vegas strip for one unforgettable night, it leads to a blazing pre-wedding hurrah.  
When Bennett's friends steal him away from Chloe for a weekend of shenanigans and strippers, their first stop doesn't exactly go as planned. Their scheme for a guys' weekend completely derailed. Bennett and Max take every chance they get to rendezvous secretly with the women they love. But when the persistently single Will Sumner catches on, the pair realizes they need to team up with him instead of butting heads if they're to escape for more sexy Vegas hookups.  
If what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, they might not every want to leave...

ROBsessed Giveaway: Enter for a chance to have THE DARKEST JOY for our Fiction Friday + winners announced!

While Rob is a busy little bee on the set of Life, we're here on another Fiction Friday giving away some novels!

 photo Happy.gif

This week we have THE DARKEST JOY by Marata Eros just released Feb. 18th! Marata is a New York Times and USA Today best selling author and her latest is "a sexy and poignant new adult novel about two lost souls who find each other in the wake of tragedy—only to learn that love may not be enough to heal the wounds of a dark and tortured past…" Here's the official synopsis:
 photo image001-2.jpgTwenty year-old Brooke Starr has escaped the aftermath of a brutal tragedy by abandoning her music studies and moving north to take a summer position as a part-time deck hand on a fishing boat. When her survivor's guilt becomes unbearable, Brooke realizes there's only one thing she can do to finally erase the pain.  
Deep-sea fisherman, Chance Taylor, has just wrapped his guitar set at the local saloon when he sees the silhouette of a young woman, the full moon highlighting her shadow as she plummets from a pier too high for diving...into water too cold to survive. Without thinking, he plunges in after her, saving Brooke from drowning.  
As Chance works to save her from her own emotional fragility, Brooke finally begins to learn how to save herself. But when their chemistry begins to consume them, Brooke withdraws. She's determined to be the master of her own destiny...until the past catches up with her in a cataclysmic plan so dark, so final - it threatens their love - and their lives. Electryfying, mysterious and utterly captivating, THE DARKEST JOY shows just what happens when a tormented past comes back to haunt you - and may never let you move on. 
Sounds like a healthy dose of angst for our dark cloud lovers out there in the dark recesses. ;)

ROBsessed Giveaway: Read about the Shades of Jamie Dornan for Fiction Friday!

ROBsessed Giveaway: Read about the Shades of Jamie Dornan for Fiction Friday!

Simon & Schuster sends a bunch of books to us to check out and then giveaway to you guys. We love that they do this because we know many of you are readers. This blog wouldn't have happened if we didn't have a girl who loved a book then loved the man who brought the character to life.

Shades of Jamie Dornan was sent because Fifty Shades of Grey is out this weekend....in case you've been living under a rock. ;)
Are you going to see it? Did you read Master of the Universe or just the published book? I will have seen the film by the time this blog posts but I wonder when Rob's checking it out....


We, of course, know that Rob and Jamie go way back but the media is just catching on since Jamie's star is rising. There's mention of Rob in this book as well, on page 133 so if you're a winner, keep a look out! Here's the synopsis for Shades of Jamie Dornan by Jo Berry:
 photo 51BoRc1ycNL.jpg
From film and TV critic Jo Berry comes the unauthorized biography of model-turned-actor Jamie Dornan, starring as Christian Grey in the wildly popular Fifty Shades of Grey film! 
Jamie Dornan is quickly becoming a megastar. The announcement of his lead role in the upcoming movie adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey caused a media frenzy and he has been hitting the headlines ever since. After English actor Charlie Hunnam stepped away from the role, Dornan was catapulted into the international spotlight. Previously a model for Calvin Klein alongside Kate Moss, he has appeared in Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette, has dated Keira Knightley, was cast as the sheriff in the hit fantasy TV drama Once Upon A Time, and followed it up with an acclaimed leading performance in the TV thriller The Fall. With details compiled from in-depth research into both his personal and professional life, this insightful book will reveal fifty shades of Jamie Dornan—a no-holds-barred biography of the man who everyone wants to know intimately.
Also on this day (the 13th), the XOXO podcast is out and author Kresley Cole is talking about Fifty Shades of Grey:
XOXO plays Siskel & Ebert with 50 Shades of Grey, Lauren interviews #1 New York Times bestselling author Kresley Cole and the ladies wrap it up with a game of “What’s In A Name?”.
What is XOXO?
XOXOAfterDark is proud to announce, in conjunction with CBS Radio, CBS Local Digital Media, and Play.it®, the launch of an all-new podcast devoted to romance novels, sex, pop culture happenings, relationships, writing, and did we mention sex? Every two weeks listeners can join XOXO After Darkcast for an entertaining, passionate and blush-worthy discussion about all things romance from the people who know best (heck they’re book editors, if they don’t know…who does!?!). Witty and what promises to be an always lively discussion, we hope you’ll join us to hear what Abby, Kate & Lauren have to say because… ‘the best conversations happen after dark’.
Lauren from Christina Lauren (Beautiful Bastard, Sweet Filthy Boy) and we'll feature a giveaway from Kresley Cole soon! Click HERE to listen to the first podcast!

FanFic Friday
Last time, I was jonesing for some more canon fic and was in the mood for the fantasy genre. I wanted to get down down down with that world again. But I didn't know where to settle! This isn't fic but a friend recommended I read Pleasure Unbound. This is the first book in a series Goz mentioned to me years ago! I dived in and man. MAN OH MAN. I loooooove it. I'm on book 2 and this stuff is HAWT. It's the Demonica series. I don't think I can even do a synopsis justice here. I tell you it's about demons and some of you might turn away. But come on! We love a vampire. Surely you can be open minded. ;) Because trust me. You will LOVE this demon. His name is Eidolon. I pretend he's Edward. And Tayla is Bella. Shade is Jasper. Wraith is Emmett.

What. So I have fanfic syndrome. Don't send help. Just check out this series. Click HERE to purchase or read an excerpt HERE. I love how detailed this world is. And it's not completely unrecognizable. It takes place in New York City and a hospital so you can relate to that in case I've scared you. Don't be scurred. And I still have Deep In The Heart Of Me to keep me attached to my fanfic world. The last chapter had my emotions giving me whiplash. I was grinning like a fool and then tearing up. Such is the life in a counselor story. Ulie's out and now we see what adventures that brings for Tonio.

ROBsessed Giveaway: Enter for a chance to have a SWEET FILTHY BOY for our Fiction Friday

Ahhhhh....we all love a sweet filthy boy, don't we?

 photo EroticSpit2.gif

*howling* Oh Rob. KimmelRob sure knows how to let his hair down. We love us some SweetFilthyRob and he's the inspiration for this Fiction Friday. Christina Lauren started a new series called the Wild Season series and we're giving away the first book in the series, SWEET FILTHY BOY.

 photo 81iPj7qv-L.jpgSynopsis:
One-night stands are supposed to be with someone convenient, or wickedly persuasive, or regrettable. They aren’t supposed to be with someone like him. 
But after a crazy Vegas weekend celebrating her college graduation—and terrified of the future path she knows is a cop-out—Mia Holland makes the wildest decision of her life: follow Ansel Guillaume—her sweet, filthy fling—to France for the summer and just…play. 
When feelings begin to develop behind the provocative roles they take on, and their temporary masquerade adventures begin to feel real, Mia will have to decide if she belongs in the life she left because it was all wrong, or in the strange new one that seems worlds away.
What's also cool about this giveaway is that we're one of the featured quotes in the beginning pages, praising the book!

ROBsessed Scavenger Hunt Part 1: Get your "Robert Pattinson in NYC" thinking caps on and win a Beautiful Stranger!

ROBsessed Scavenger Hunt Part 1: Get your "Robert Pattinson in NYC" thinking caps on and win a Beautiful Stranger!

 photo RobNYC.jpgYou guys remember our scavenger hunt for the Beautiful Bastard giveaway we held in February? Click  HERE for a refresher. The publishers have offered 3 copies of the sequel, Beautiful Stranger, for our readers!

The authors of Beautiful Bastard, Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings, have much in store for their BB series - this summer and fall will have the release of 3 novellas (Beautiful Bitch, Beautiful Bombshell, Beautiful Beginnings) and another full length novel, Beautiful Player.

But first you need to meet your Beautiful Stranger. ;)

Synopsis:
Published for the first time in print after garnering over 2 million reads online, Beautiful Bastard (February 2013) became an instant phenomenon and USA Today and New York Times bestseller. Now in BEAUTIFUL STRANGER, Christina Lauren once again invites readers to follow a wild tryst, this time between two high-powered New Yorkers, and to witness the evolution of the pair’s connection as they discover a kindred kink.  
The second installment opens with finance whiz Sara Dillon calling her best friend, Beautiful Bastard’s Chloe Mills, as she is about to board a plane to New York City – leaving behind her life (and cheating ex) in Chicago. Out at a club celebrating Sara’s arrival and Chloe’s engagement, Sara meets an irresistibly sexy Brit, Max Stella. Looking for excitement and passion without a lot of strings attached, this encounter should mean nothing more than a night’s fun. The manner – and speed – with which he melts her inhibitions, however, turns him from a one-time hookup and into her Beautiful Stranger. Hooking up in places where anybody could catch them, the only thing scarier for Sara than getting caught in public is having Max get too close in private…
 photo 9781476731537.jpgOoooooooooo sounds like it'll be hot in the city. Beautiful Stranger takes place in NYC and we happen to love us some NYCRob so he will be the theme for this version of our ROBsessed Scavenger Hunts. Ready for question 1????

It's a perfect follow up to "Beautiful Bastard" and I promise you you are going to love Sara and the seductive and charming Max.

In the third book in the Beautiful Bastard series, an agreement between a venture capitalist and a bookish woman quickly becomes a very NSFW version of My Fair Lady.  
When Hanna "Ziggy" Bergstrom moves to New York City for graduate school, Will Sumner thinks his responsibilities to his best friend's nerdy little sister will be limited to the occasional dinner and check-in. Little does he know that Ziggy is ready to break out of her bookworm academic shell and move more into bombshell territory. Of course she figures the gorgeous womanizing venture capitalist, Will, is the best person to help mentor her in this new field of study: dating.  
Will takes on the challenge with more than a healthy does of skepticism and humor, but soon finds that Ziggy just needed a tiny push, not a world of change, to reveal a woman every man seems to notice. Soon "Ziggy" is gone and the unfiltered, innocently seductive Hanna Bergstrom is hijacking his dreams, his moods, and even his orderly, no-strings-attached dating life - beginning the night his mentoring activities move between the sheets.

See you in November!
