~Book Highlight & Giveaway: Game Changer by Collette West~
Title: Game Changer
Author: Collette West
Genre: Adult contemporary romance
Young, rich, and unaware of how seriously hot he is, Brooks
Davison is tearing it up as the latest shortstop for the New York Kings,
despite his tendency to blush whenever girls scream his name.
When a health scare forces his best friend, Kyle Roberts,
off the team, no one can stomach the thought of replacing him, especially so
close to the playoffs.
Until Kyle's sister, Sasha, steps in, convincing management
to let her take his place. The idea of signing the first female player in Major
League history proves too tempting for the Kings to resist.
Nevertheless, Brooks doesn't want any part of it. Sasha is
Kyle's little sister, not some sideshow.
Yet when Kyle takes a turn for the worse, Brooks promises to
do everything in his power to help Sasha win a championship for him. Because
there's no way he's letting either of them down. Not now, not
ever.

"I want my best friend
and the woman I love. Don't make me have
to
choose."
Brooks just spilled his
heart
out, and if Kyle tramples all over it with some wiseass
remark, I'll kill him,
sick or not.
"Dude, chill,"
Kyle
finally responds, holding up his hands as if to ward him
off. "I already
hinted to Sasha on the phone. I can work at wrapping my mind
around the idea of
the two of you, but I don't think it's wise to flaunt it
during the season.
There are too many eyes on Sasha. You add a love story to
the mix and the whole
thing is just gonna explode. Right now, all it is is gossip,
but if you confirm
that the two of you are dating, be prepared for all hell to
break loose."
"But I can't hide the
way I
feel," Brooks argues. "Not
anymore."
"And I don't want you
to," I speak up as Kyle turns his doleful eyes to me.
Feeling the weight
of his gaze, I go on. "But Kyle's
right."
Brooks sighs in
frustration,
taking a step to come over to me, but I raise my hand to
stop him.
"Wait. Just hear me
out." I pause, giving voice to the thoughts that have
been floating around
my brain for some time. "I think that, when we're
alone, behind closed
doors, away from prying eyes—we should be free to do what we
want. But when
we're in public, we'll be careful not to give anything away.
No holding hands.
No kissing. All public displays of affection will be
strictly off-limits."
"It still sounds risky
to
me. I hate the thought of you having your hands all over my
sister, bro, so the
less anyone has to see of it, the better." Kyle tries
to get Brooks to
look up at him, but he stubbornly keeps his baby blues
trained to the floor.
"Brooks?" I prod
him.
"What do you
think?"
"I'm not exactly
thrilled,”
Brooks replies, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
“I'm not the type of
person who likes skulkin’ around in the shadows. The both of
you know that's
not how I operate. I believe in being true to who I am,
whether I’m in public
or in private. I don't wanna have to hide the way I feel
about you, Sasha.
You're the brightest part of my life. I wanna show the world
how much I care
about you, not pretend that you mean nuthin’ to
me."

Collette West grew up as somewhat of a jock-nerd hybrid.
Entering the world three weeks premature, her dad nearly missed her birth
because he had seats behind the dugout for a sold-out, highly-anticipated
match-up between two of baseball's biggest rivals. Not to be outdone, her
book-loving mom taught her how to read by the time she was three. A love of the
game coupled with an appreciation for the written word were instilled in
Collette's impressionable brain from a young age. No wonder her characters
believe in the philosophy: sports + romance = a little slice of heaven.
Splitting her time between the Pocono Mountains and
Manhattan, Collette indulges her inner fangirl by going to as many games as she
can from hockey to baseball and downloading every sports romance novel in
existence onto her iPad. When she's not clicking away on her laptop, she enjoys
walking her dog in Central Park, satisfying her caffeine craving at the
Starbucks on Broadway and keeping an eye out for Mr. Right. But above all, she
loves dishing with her readers. Email her at collette_west@yahoo.com.
She is the author of NIGHT GAMES and GAME CHANGER.

A.C Bextor - Holding On
This novel contains material that is not suitable for individuals under the age of 18. Content includes: drug use, explicit language, violence, rape, and other scenarios with content that readers may find offensive. Please use caution when deciding on this book, as every reader has the right to understand the product before purchase.
This book is one of two and does not contain an exact HEA as the reader may expect, yet.
“You are mine. You’ve been mine since you took those training wheels off that pink bike of yours and fell at my feet. Never even cried, you didn’t. Just sat on my lap trusting that I had you. Well I have you now, baby. You’re grown up, you’re a woman, and you’re mine. Mine.”
That’s Shame. My brothers best friend and the Vice President of Lights of Peril MC. Along with my best friend Sadey, we’ve all grown up together. I don’t have a memory that isn’t surrounded by the four of us.
Years together as friends and often times in the face of adversity has led Shame, Hem, Mace, and Sadey to share their lives now as adults.
Sadey and Mace have been best friends since they were five years old. As a child, teenager, and then young woman, Sadey longed for Hem to notice her. As years passed, she vowed to save all of herself for him with the hope that one day he would see her as the woman she was turning herself into, not just the child he remembers.
Mace and Hem are siblings that grew up in a small town in the Midwest. Sharing the same mother, Mace’s father refuses to accept Hem as his own, leading him to a life similar to that of his biological father.
Hem never set out to be President of the Lights of Peril Motorcycle Club, but when he left home at 17 to find the acceptance he was so desperate for, he ended up finding Doc. After Doc's passing Hem was determined to lead Peril into a clean existence.
The story is about love, heartache, and tragedy.
Sometimes we search our whole lives for something we think we are missing, only to find out what we had with us is what we were looking for all along.
