Blog Tour Sign Up: Crime and Passion by Chantel Rhondeau
A decorated police officer, more intent on justice than following the letter of the law, lands in trouble when a schoolteacher finds a dead body on the beach.
Officer Donovan Andrews knows how to have a good time—ask any woman in town. But when it comes to men abusing their wives or children, Donovan takes it upon himself to make them regret it.
Madeline Scott is unlucky in love. All she wants is a quiet place to heal, away from cheating, womanizing men. However, her life is far from peaceful once she stumbles across the body and witnesses someone fleeing the scene.
Terror spreads in Pleasant View when the small community hears a killer is on the loose. All evidence points to Donovan, and he realizes someone is trying to frame him. When troubling suspicions from his past surface, even fellow officers believe he’s guilty. Madeline might be the only person who can clear his name, but first he has to win her trust.
The body count rises and no one is safe. The murderer makes it clear Madeline is next. Soon, Donovan’s whole world is focused on protecting her and keeping himself out of prison. The more time he spends with her, the harder it is to fight his growing attraction. Since she’s been burned by love, convincing Madeline he’s interested in something more than hot sex may prove harder than keeping her alive.

CLP Blog Tours Book Review: Staged by Ruby Preston
Ruby Preston is on tour now with CLP Blog Tours and Staged. I was super excited to get this book, as I highly enjoyed the first in this Broadway series, Showbiz. Scarlett Savoy is back and ready to conquer the Broadway biz – for real this time. She is now a producer for her own company, has financial backing thanks to a good friend, has a hit show on her hands, and even more pieces fall into place when she snags a sought-after director and a Hollywood starlet to play the lead. The only thing she needs now? A theater.
Oh, there is so much more to Staged than just Scarlett trying to find a theater and making her show a success. The most intriguing part to me was the romance – just who was Scarlett going to end up with? I hate to drop a (very minor) spoiler, but it looks like we won’t know that answer until the third and final book in this series. I’m not sure you would absolutely need to read Showbiz in order to catch on to this book, but I actually like the first just a smidge more, so I would recommend it anyway! And I’m definitely looking forward to the third and seeing how Scarlett’s journey comes to an end.

CLP Blog Tours Book Review: Schoolgirl Cinderella by Priya Narendran
Priya is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and Schoolgirl Cinderella. This story is a bit of a modern-day Cinderella story, with Briony Duke as our leading lady. Her parents are killed in a car accident when she is ten, and her guardian is set to be an old friend of her fathers, who is not a good person. Mrs. Eyres treats Briony terribly, forcing her to cook and clean for her and her daughter Lucy, who is just as mean-spirited. But Briony tries not to let them beat her, and at seventeen even thinks she finds love with the wealthy Tom Logan. But Mrs. Eyres is set on Lucy nabbing Tom, and is prepared to fight Briony to make sure her daughter lands the eligible bachelor.
I will say that the style Schoolgirl Cinderella is written in through me off at times, but I was actually really invested in the story. It was a cute read and I was constantly intrigued on what Briony was going to do and what her next action would be. Sometimes I couldn’t quite tell what the time period the book was supposed to take place in and there were a few inconsistencies, but I still give it 4 stars because I really enjoyed the story.

Blog Tour Sign Up: Looming Murder by Carol Ann Martin
Della Wright has come to peaceful and picturesque Briar Hollow, at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, to realize her lifelong dream of owning a weaving studio. To promote her new business, Dream Weavers, Della is offering weaving workshops for all levels of ability. In her first class, she meets half a dozen of the town’s colorful characters, who seem as eager to gossip as to learn how to work a loom.
But when a shady local businessman is found murdered, Briar Hollow suddenly appears a lot less idyllic. And when one of her weaving students is suspected of the crime, Della can’t help getting entangled in the investigation—with some help from her criminologist friend, Matthew. But can she weave together clues as well as she weaves together yarn—and stop a killer from striking again?
