Blog Hop + Giveaway! The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout




13644052
From Goodreads: 
Daemon will do anything to get Katy back.

After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.

All Katy can do is survive.
   
Surrounded by enemies, the only way she can come out of this is to adapt. After all, there are sides of Daedalus that don’t seem entirely crazy, but the group’s goals are frightening and the truths they speak even more disturbing. Who are the real bad guys? Daedalus? Mankind? Or the Luxen?

Together, they can face anything. 

But the most dangerous foe has been there all along, and when the truths are exposed and the lies come crumbling down, which side will Daemon and Katy be standing on? 
  
And will they even be together?


Favorite Origin Quotes:       “Oh shit. ET just phoned home.” 

    






“While you’re deep in something, you never say or do what you need to. It’s always after the fact, when it’s too late, that you realize what you should’ve said or done.” 





“I want to get to know every freckle and every curve on a personal level.” 

“I think you did that last night.” 
“Nah.” He shook his head. “That was just a meet and greet. I want to know their hopes and dreams.” 



“Sometimes words were cheap. They could be powerful, but in those rare occasions like now, words meant nothing.”




“I want to marry you because I'm in love with you, Kat. I will always be in love with you. That's not going to change today or two weeks from now. I will be just as in love with you in twenty years as I am today.” 






“I promise you that this isn't going to be our future, Kitten. I will give that to you—a normal life."
Her eyes glistened. "I don’t expect a normal life. I just expect a life with you” 

“I love you," I said, our lips brushing. "I love you so very much.”

Adult Contemporary Romance
Second Chances Series
Release: October 6, 2014

From the author of No Reverse, comes a life-changing journey to Paris and a chance to find l’amour again.

Eleanor Carrington knows how to love, and to love deeply. She also knows how it feels to have your heart torn to pieces. The blue-blooded daughter of a political heavyweight, she has never wanted for anything…
… Except the love of two very different men. 
She was engaged to her second lover, Joshua McBride, only to find out he already had a wife and a child. After that ego-bashing experience, she flees to Paris to stay with her self-medicated mother. While keeping her mom from popping pills like gummy bears, Eleanor launches a new, no-strings-attached life plan: sleeping around and absolutely NO falling in love whatsoever. On her part at least, because her self-esteem could do with one or two Frenchmen going un peu crazy for her.
What she doesn’t need is for Grand Amour Number One to burst back into her life. What she doesn’t need is all-American Zachary Murdoch—or a more mature and sensitive version of him—to schmooze his way into her life again. 
Now a club-owner in Paris, Zach is intrigued by the troubled woman who was once the sweet girl he had to give up. Offering a shoulder for her to cry on is what he owes her. Falling for her is what he has lost the right to.
But Paris is known as the City of Love for a reason…

Will he be her turn at love?

*** You Turn is a contemporary adult romance and part of the Second Chances series. However, Lenor’s story can be read as a stand-alone novel. There is no cliffhanger. ***
About the Author

Marion loves to share happy vibes, talk book crush, fictional boyfriends and sexual chemistry with like-minded people. And because she spends most of her days on her own deep inside her writing cave—and under the grey London sky—, you are welcome to come and say ‘hello’ from time to time. Just to make sure she doesn’t sink into insanity. Her friends, family and arch-enemies (there are quite a few) will be forever grateful for your help.

Feature and Follow Friday Blog Hop! 9/12/14

This Week’s Question

Before blogging (dark times people!) how would you find out about new books or did you?

Question provided by: The Pegster Reads 


This is kind of a funny question to me. The short answer is shelves first, then when Amazon got big, their Top 100 List.

The slightly longer answer… I stumbled across a few romance writers years ago, when we still found them by looking on the shelf and…”judging a book by it’s cover.” Lol. Since I’d found ones I liked, I stuck with them, that way I wasn’t disappointed. The thing is, I’m the only person I know who reads this genre, plus my family is super conservative so it makes it difficult to share. Eventually, I’d read almost all of their books. I went scrolling through Amazon’s top 100 and took a chance on J. Lynn’s (Jennifer L. Armentrout) “Wait For You.” I was now completely hooked on her. So, I started looking for books through this list. I discovered Aurora Rose Reynolds, Penelope Douglas, Abbi Glines…and so many more that I now 1-click whenever they have a release. I also find authors through anthologies. Like "Alpha's On Top." K. Webster and Rochelle Paige were discoveries from that collection. 
Through a Lux read-along, I all of the sudden had friends to talk to about the books I love! I started looking at their recommendations, blog reviews, and recomendations of the new authors I’d come to love. Now that I blog…it’s similar (recommendations from friends and authors), however, I find them through blog tours too. Lol. I find that I look at blog recommendations more now than I did before I started blogging though...is that weird? 


Did you ever use Amazon’s Top 100 List?


If you like my Facebook page, that would awesome!! I’ll be sure to like yours in return.
