Imogen Gorecki has a problem-her twin sister just got engaged, and guess who's the best man? That's right, her scum-of-an-ex-boyfriend whom she caught cheating with a bottle-blonde, with fake breasts and a stripper's flexibility. There's a disturbing possibility her eyes will never recover.

Gen needs a date for the engagement party, but finding Mr. Perfect in a time crunch is proving impossible. Just when she's about to give up, she face-plants into the crotch of the sexiest guy she's ever met.

Matt Sesnick is everything Gen wants in a man -except he's not interested in a relationship. Can she convince Matt to take another shot at love, or will Gen's pregnant, hormonal older sister, her bridezilla twin, and all of her past Mr. Wrongs get in the way of their happily-ever-after?

"Gennie-bear, you want another bite of this cupcake? You can use my fork," Brent said and held it out to me. With his saliva on it.

I had no idea where his mouth had been lately. Gross.

I shook my head. "Uh, no thanks. I'm good. I'll get another fork." I said and shoved my chair back so hard it made a loud, screeching noise across the floor. I smiled an apology before I escaped and wondered how I could prolong the simple task of retrieving a fork.

I took my time at the counter talking to Melanie about the weather, about cupcake batter and about where she got her plastic forks, anything to delay my return to the table. When Lexie sent me the twin death glare, I sighed and went back to the table.

Brent had eaten half of my Lemon Drop cupcake.

"That one was really good," he said and sent me a sparkly smile.

I almost stabbed him with my fork, but the bell above the door jingled and I looked up to see Matt standing there.

The light flooding through behind him tipped his dark hair in gold. I nearly sighed. Was it weird I thought I heard sirens and angels singing? There he was, my knight in shining armor, saving me again. I threw the fork down and bounded from my chair. It tipped backward, but the sound of it crashing to the floor was muffled as everything else faded to the background. I rushed into his arms and he caught me to his chest with a deep laugh and it reverberated through my body like a bass drum. His arms circled around me, wrapping me in his warmth and I breathed in the scent of him, my face feeling like it might crack with my smile.

His cheek rested against my temple and I sighed, content. Would my heart ever stop racing when my eyes caught sight of him? I hoped not. It was exhilarating and terrifying at the same time.

"You came," I whispered, not willing to let him go.

"Did you doubt I would?" He dropped a kiss to the tip of my nose, sending shivers down my spine, the butterflies knocking like mad into each other inside my stomach.

Once upon a time…
Bridal boutique owner, Alexis Gorecki, used to believe in happily-ever-afters-until prince charming turned into a toad.

Months after being blindsided by her own horrific wedding scandal, Lexie is desperately trying to keep her boutique afloat in the wake of all the bad publicity. Waging war against her evil almost-in-laws-the people who will stop at nothing to ruin her reputation-sounded much better in her head. Lexie's strawberries and cream personality really isn't cut out for taser guns and blackmail.

To complicate matters, Lexie's first love is back in town with his sexy green eyes and out-of-control abs. He already broke her heart once before, the beast. Leo Moss has always been her weakness and he's made it perfectly clear what he wants. Can he convince Lexie she's not done with love just yet?

"Damn it, Lex, you keep pushing me away and it's pissing me off." He ran his hands through his hair. "I'm not going to fight over you with some guy who's already gone."

"Me pushing you away has nothing to do with Jeremy," I said and crossed my arms. What I didn't say was that it had everything to do with Leo, with our past, with me not wanting to get my heart broken again. Why couldn't he understand that? Why couldn't he read my mind and know all the questions I had about why he'd broken up with me the way he had, and why he was suddenly here, again, in my life, torturing me with feelings I didn't want to have. Feelings that scared the hell out of me?

His face lowered, and suddenly his lips were near my ear lobe. I sucked in a breath. "Did he make you feel like this?" he whispered, and then his lips pressed softly against the sensitive skin of my neck. "Or this?" His lips captured my earlobe, a flicker of wet heat, and then it was gone, replaced by a draft of cold air seeping through the crack under the door. "Or this."

His lips captured mine and stars exploded behind my closed eyes. Everything was warm, my entire body weightless and fuzzy. The kiss was slow; the heat of it felt all the way down to my toes. His tongue slid against mine in a silken kiss of passion that erupted inside of me.

 photo hayden-panettiere-.jpg

Imogen (Gen) Gorecki

Hayden Panettiere would make the perfect Gen in Another Shot At Love. She's a great actress, so I think she could play Gen's fun, colorful character very well. And, as some of you already know or will find out after reading Another Shot At Love, Gen had an identical twin sister named Lexie. Lexie is a complete opposite of Gen when it comes to style. Hayden is talented enough she could play both roles. Nina Dobrev on #TVD does it all the time, so Hayden's got this. No bigz



 photo Ian-Somerhalder-.jpg

Matthew (Matt) Sesnick

Seriously, Ian Somerhalder is out of control and needs to behave...but only after he plays Matt in Another Shot At Love. He's perfect, and exactly what I was fantasizing...I mean, exactly what I was professionally imagining would play Matt in the movie. He doesn't have hazel eyes, but I'm sure readers would forgive that oversight if it's Ian who plays the role ;)



 photo Hayden-Panettiere_08.jpg

Alexis (Lexie) Gorecki

Lexie is Gen's twin sister. She's cream and roses whereas Gen is bright colors and band tees. Therefore, Hayden Panettiere with her long hair and loose waves. Gen usually straightens her hair, but when she lets it fall natural, it's curly.



 photo -vanessa_hudgens.jpg

Roxanna (Roxi) Moss

Gen and Lexie's BFF since she almost ran them over with her pink scooter back in grade school. Vanessa Hudgens would be perfect for to play Roxi in Another Shot At Love. She's half Italian, half Filipino and 100% drama and fun



 photo KatherineHeigl.jpg

Catherine (Cat) Gorecki

Katherine Heigl would make the perfect pregnant and hormonal older sister. She can be super serious, but can add a touch of humor to Gen and Lexie's older sister. Katherine rocks in romantic comedies :)



 photo JustinTimberlake.jpg

Richard (bad date that never ends)

Okay, I love Richard. He's super geeky, but good looking, which is why Gen didn't mind going on a blind date with him in the first place. And then she found out his idea of a hobby was delivery pizza, a couch and hours playing video games, while sometimes wearing a Master Chief helmet to get pumped up for Xbox live… But, mostly, he's inexperienced with women, has some equally inexperienced friends who give him really bad chick advice. Bless his hot, geeky heart. If you've ever seen Justin Timberlake in Bad Teacher, read Another Shot At Love and picture him in the role of Richard, and let me know what you think :)

Niecey Roy knew she wanted to be a writer from a very young age, but her moment of enlightenment came after watching the movie You've Got Mail. It was then she realized her place in life, and happily parked her butt on writing romance. Her dream was to create sexy vixens, hunky, half-naked heroes, and above all, romance; lots and lots of butterflies in the belly, breathless first kisses and happily-ever-afters.

Most days she can be found at home at a cluttered desk, pounding her tired little fingers away on a keyboard with nothing but black pepper flavored sunflower seeds and Visine as her weapons for mass-romance-novel-creation. When her fingers need a break, you'll find her at a table with friends, drinking a few martinis and showing off a new pair of (sometimes ridiculous) high heels. She's usually the loudest at the table and most often the one snorting with laughter.

Niecey is the author of Fender Bender Blues, a contemporary romantic comedy published by The Wild Rose Press. Her new romantic comedy series, What's Love??? includes Another Shot At Love, and Done With Love releasing April 2014.

Book Blitz: Being Hartley By Allison Rushby @Allison_Rushby @NereydaG1003 #giveaway





Being Hartley
Release Date: 11/2013

Summary from Goodreads:
Fifteen-year-old Thea Wallis was born to entertain. Her mother, Oscar winning actress Cassie Hartley, thinks differently and has kept her daughter out of the spotlight since day one. Coming from showbiz royalty, it hasn't been easy to go unnoticed, but mismatched surnames, a family home in Tasmania and a low-key scriptwriter father has made this possible.

Just like her cousin Rory on the hugely popular TV show Saturday Morning Dance, Thea loves to dance. She learns the show's routines off by heart each week, despite her mother's attempts to convince her that dentistry would be a far more fulfilling career choice.




However, when Rory goes off the rails in LA, Thea's mother is suddenly left with no choice at all - Rory needs them and to LA they must go. Within forty-eight hours, Thea finds herself a long way from Tasmania and living her dream - on the road to Las Vegas with the Saturday Morning Dance team.



It doesn't take long before Thea's talents are discovered and she's offered everything she's ever wanted on a plate, including the dance partner she's had a crush on forever. But, as her mother has always told her, Hollywood dreams come at a price. Thea soon realizes she will have to work out just how much she's willing to pay. And, ultimately, discover her own way to be Hartley.

Excerpt:
Rory cranks the radio up, and we drive out through the gates and start down the twists and turns of Sunset Plaza Drive.

We chat as we stop at all the stop signs and slowly make our way to Sunset Boulevard. At one stop sign, someone honks and waves at us, and Rory waves back. "That's Cindy, one of our neighbors," she says before moving forward again. "Hey, you'll love this juice bar. It's fantastic-everything's organic and they use this raw sugarcane sweetener…yum."

"Sounds good," I say as we make a right-hand turn and hit the main road. As we do, someone sitting and waiting at the set of lights honks and waves. "Who's that?" I ask Rory.

"Beats me," she says. "We'll get a lot of that. Just ignore it."

"Oh, right. I see." I guess the combination of pink Bentley and RORY plates attracts a bit of attention. Which is what SMD is after, I suppose.

Over the next few minutes, I get to see why Rory's not so keen on her new wheels. The few times I've been allowed to let Rory drive me somewhere in Frank, I didn't realize there were quite so many sets of lights on Sunset Boulevard. Back then, she went largely undetected, especially if she wore a baseball cap, and I was free to enjoy the views, the palm fronds bobbing high above us, the unfamiliar billboards, everyone busily coming and going. Sure, there were a few paparazzi who knew her regular plates, but not too many. But now…every time we have to slow down for traffic or stop at a red light, people honk, people stare in the windows, people wave. At one point, we pull up next to a yellow school bus, one kid spots us, and then the whole bus begins rocking as the kids jump up and down in excitement at seeing Rory going about her everyday business.

"Am I supposed to wave?" I ask Rory.

She shrugs. "If you want."

I give a small, half-hearted wave at the kids, and they go absolutely crazy. "Hmmm, maybe that's not such a good idea," I tell her as one kid in particular waves her arms around, tries to get closer to the window, and accidentally slams another kid's face into the glass.

"I know you guys don't travel together and everything, but you really don't ever get this with your mom?" Rory sounds confused.

"You know how she operates." I shrug. "Mom and Dad tag-team it-one of them works and the other one sticks with me. If we do have to travel together, I stick with Beth, my tutor. And believe me, no one's the slightest bit interested in Thea Wallis and Beth Gibbs, her tutor."

"Well, I am," Rory says as we pull away from the school bus and leave the kids behind.

"Thanks," I say flatly.

"What's up?" She frowns, concentrating on the road.

"Oh, the usual. Can't go anywhere by myself, can't do anything for myself. If Mom had her way, I'd still be collecting Barbies and getting pushed around in a stroller."

"Ah, that," Rory answers me, her voice sympathetic. "Maybe now that Allie's better we could start hassling them about sending you to her school again?"

"Maybe." The truth is, however, I can't see my mom changing her mind. Still, I let it go. I don't really like complaining about my mom issues in front of Rory and Allie, who don't have a mom. Well, not one that's around, anyway. Rory and Allie's mom, Margaret, left when Allie was two. They still see her now and then, but she remarried and they bought the whitest penthouse you've ever seen. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of room in her new life for Rory and Allie, though I bet she likes to brag about Rory plenty. Every so often, when Mom forgets I'm in the room, she'll say something nasty about Margaret that I'm not supposed to hear. I get the feeling my grandmother might have hand-picked Margaret (the daughter of a senator) for Uncle Erik. And Uncle Erik did what he was told. Which is probably why Uncle Erik sees more of my mom now than my grandmother. I guess they have a lot in common.

I shake my head slightly. "Anyway…" I reach forward and turn the radio down. "We're supposed to be talking about you. So, spill already."

"About?"

"Please."

Rory shrugs. "What am I supposed to say? Ugh…I don't know. I'm just over it, that's all. There're changes going on at SMD, okay? Big changes I don't really agree with."

"Oh?" I say, hoping she'll continue and tell me more. "Like?"

She pauses then seems to brush my question away. "Oh, I don't know. Lots of things. And I can't wait to get going on this Vegas bus trip tomorrow. Cooped up for three days with Sonja, her gutless assistant Melinda, and Mara. That's my idea of a good time." She couldn't sound more sarcastic if she tried.

"Hang on," I say. "Sonja's the new producer, right? The crazy one?" Last season, the SMD ratings had started to dip, and a new producer had been brought in. Sonja was that producer, and from what it sounded like, she was going to make this show successful again if it was the last thing she ever did.

"Crazy's the word," Rory agrees. "As in, crazy about making SMD the highest-rated show every single week forevermore. Talk about driven. And speaking of driven, she's making us drive to LA. Together. Wait till you see it-we've got this big touring bus with SMD plastered all across the side. Almost as inconspicuous as this car. We're supposed to be bonding."

"But…" I start.

"I know! We've been a team for the past five years. And some of us for years before that, on Saturday Morning Kids. You'd think we'd have bonded by now if we were going to, right? Anyway." Rory sighs. "It doesn't matter. Let's not talk about that right now. I'm even over talking about it, which is all Dad ever wants to do-talk, talk, talk, talk, talk."

"Mmm," I answer, really uncomfortable with how all this is going. Rory is acting… very un-Rory-like. Kind of hyper and odd. And I can't remember a time she actually told me she didn't want to discuss something before. Maybe now's not the best time to bring up the fake boyfriend?

"Hey, we're almost there. Only one more set of lights. The owner is really sweet. He lets me park in the back so the car's hidden away, which I totally love him for."

We pull up at the set of lights Rory mentioned, and she points across the road. "It's over there."

I'm craning my neck to see the shop she's pointing to when I'm distracted by a tapping on my right-hand side. When I check to see what's going on, the guy from the lane next to us is holding a piece of paper up to the window.

"Is that his cell number?" I say, not believing my eyes.

Rory glances over. "Well, I doubt it's his IQ," she says, unimpressed. "It's about eight numbers too long."

I take a second look. "He's, um, pretty cute. And so is his friend."

Rory takes a second look as well now. "Maybe. If you like that kind of thing. Not my type, though."

"What's your type?" I ask her.

"Guys who don't pick me up at the lights."

I laugh at this. "Not all of us can be so choosy. I'm not lucky enough to have a 'type.'"

Rory becomes a tad more animated on hearing this and twists around in her seat, her hands still gripping the wheel. "Wait. What are you saying? Are you into boys now? My little cousin is into boys?"

"I was always into boys. They just weren't into me. Or aren't into me. Or don't know I exist. Or something."

"What? You can't be serious. Guys don't like you? I don't believe it." She frowns.

I think about this for a second. "Well, maybe that's not fair. I don't ever actually get to meet any boys, guys, you know-members of the opposite sex. Maybe a few at dance workshops and stuff, but they're pretty few and far between. It's mostly girls who go to those."

Rory gets an expression on her face then. One I've seen before-one that generally means we're about to do something that could get us into a lot of trouble, but we'll be sure to have a good time doing it. This is a girl hell-bent on looking for distraction. "Well, how about it, then? Want to meet some?"

I glance over at the two guys then back at Rory. "Them?"

"Yes, them. I think they might be willing. You know how I can tell? Because they're holding up a cell number to the window."

"Very funny." I throw her a withering look.

"Well?" Rory's waiting for my answer. "What'll it be? Yes or no?"

"Um, yes? Maybe? I don't know?"

"Oh, for goodness sake." Rory leans over me now and points out the juice bar we're going to, then gestures for the guys to follow us.

And then, as the lights change to green, they do.

Fighting for someone's heart is more challenging than fighting for a title.

For a time, many years ago, love had grown, love was made, and in the end … love was lost. The decision to leave had been the worst mistake Shelby Dawson could have ever made. However, at the time-ten years ago-she felt her secret needed to stay hidden, even if it broke her heart and the heart of the man she loved. Back then, he was all hers and she was all his, but now things have changed and he isn't the same guy she knew.

He happens to be the well-known MMA Heavyweight champion and famous bad boy, Matt 'The Destroyer' Reynolds, who once before struggled to help his family pay the bills. Now, he has money flowing with each undefeated win and an insurmountable number of women filling his bed. Everything is perfect for the illustrious fighter, until one day it all changes. In walks the girl from his past, the same girl who promised to stick by him but left and never looked back. Their second chance to make things right will not come easy, for when one mistake is made an unwelcome consequence soon follows. Someone out there wants to rip them apart and they won't stop until Matt and Shelby pay the ultimate price … their love.
