Release Day Blitz for After this night by Lauren Blakely
After this Night (Seductive Nights #2)
by Lauren Blakely
AFTER THIS NIGHT EXCERPT:
Then he saw a new email land in his inbox. From her. The subject line gave nothing away: Hi. But Pavlovian response kicked in, and he opened it before he could think. Because seeing her name still felt like a damn good thing, still held the promise of a sexy note, a naughty line, or a sweet nothing. But more than any of those options, it held the promise of her.
date: April 25, 4:08 AM
subject: Hi
Clay,
Hi. I’m lying awake in bed thinking of last night. How only 24 hours ago you were here with me. How much better it was to sleep with your arms around me, all safe and warm and snug. How much I would love to have you here again. But I know that won’t happen. And I understand. I truly understand. If I were you, I would hate me too. If I were you, I’d be suspicious as hell. And I probably wouldn’t trust me either. So I get 100 percent where you’re coming from and I wish there were another way. I want you in my life so badly that I can feel this ache where you’re supposed to be. But I know I can’t have you, and I’m sorry I can’t be open right now. You deserve more than this. More than me. All I will say is this sucks, and if I could turn back time and do certain things over there’s a lot I would change.
But I wouldn’t change a second with you.
Wow. I just re-read my note. I think that’s the mushiest I’ve ever been with anyone. Damn, you did a number on me, and I’ve got it bad for you. I’m hitting send while I still have the guts in me to do so, even though I will probably regret it. Except this is all true.
Xoxo
Julia
He dropped his head in his hand, and cursed. A wave of frustration and longing rolled through him, and he knew he should turn the damn phone off and ignore her. But this woman, she was under his skin. He hated lies but he’d be lying to himself if he pretended he’d forgotten her in a day.

subject: Hi
I don’t hate you. The farthest thing from it.
He hit send before the regret washed over him, as it eventually would, he was sure.
About AFTER THIS NIGHT: This is the conclusion of Julia and Clay's story that began in the New York Times Bestseller Night After Night.
"Why do you like me tied up sometimes?" "Because the way I feel for you is so out of control that this is one way for me to feel in control again."
Their world was passion, pleasure and secrets. Far too many secrets. But Clay Nichols can't get Julia Bell out of his mind. He's so drawn to her, and to the nights they shared, that he can't focus on work or business. Only her. And she's pissing him off with her hot and cold act. She has her reasons though-she's trying to stay one step ahead of the trouble that's been chasing her for months now, thanks to the criminal world her ex dragged her into. If only she can get out of this mess, then maybe she can invite the man who ignites her back in her life, so she can have him-heart, mind and body. He won't take less than all of her, and the full truth too. When he runs into her again at her sister's wedding, they have a second chance but she'll have to let him all the way in. And they'll learn just how much more there is to the intense sexual chemistry they share, and whether love can carry them well past the danger of her past and into a new future, after this night...
Please note: This book is intended for 18+ due to dirty talk, light bondage, and lots of sexy scenes.

**Warning: Spare panties are needed...you're welcome.***
"You are being rewarded for turning me on. But we're doing it my way. You teased the hell out of me, and now I want to watch you squirm. Crawl up on my bed and get on your hands and knees."
Their world was sex, love, and lies.
He intoxicated her. Commanded. Consumed.
With a dirty mind and a mouth to match, Clay Nichols is everything Julia never knew she wanted and exactly what she cannot have. He walked into her life one night and unlocked pleasure in her that she never knew was possible. Possessing her body, captivating her every thought. Which makes him way too dangerous for Julia Bell to risk her heart, given that she has a price tag on her head. She ran after one mind-blowing week with him, but now he's back, and determined to make her his own.
No matter the cost.
She was a sexy drug to him. Fiery, unforgettable, and never enough, Julia is an enigma, and Clay isn't willing to let her go without a fight. But she's got dark secrets of her own that threaten to destroy any chance of happiness. She's a wanted woman - the stakes are high, her every move is watched, and yet the lure between them can't be denied. Can two people burned by love trust again when desire and passion are met by danger at every turn?
A sensual, emotionally-charged erotic romance that is now a New York Times and USA Today Bestselling novel!

He reached for her legs and began rubbing her calves, gently
massaging them with his strong hands.
She stretched and wiggled closer, delighting in the relaxing
feel of his firm hands sending a new kind of pleasure through her, one that
made her muscles sing, and her veins flood with warmth. “You are too good to
me,” she murmured.
“Only way I want to be,” he said and sighed happily, a
contented sound as he rubbed her legs, then moved down to her feet, cupping her
ankle in one hand as he massaged the arch of her foot with his thumbs. “I
figure your feet can use this, with those crazy heels you wear.”
“I like my crazy heels.”
“I love your crazy heels, and I want to make sure you can
keep wearing them.”
“How do you like them best?” she said, playfully.
“With your legs wrapped around my neck.”
She smiled at him, a woozy sort of contentment bathing the
night. “What time is it? I feel like I lost all sense of the world around me
tonight.”
He bent down to kiss her shin. “Good. That’s how it should
be. And to answer your question, it’s nearly midnight.”
A brief hit of tension touched down in her body, like an
alarm. Tomorrow night at this time, she’d be headed home. This weekend—perfect
as it was—would be over. It would be a delicious memory, but only that. A slice
of her life that was in the past.
There was a part of her that wanted to stop time, and live
in this escape to New York for a while, forget her debts, forget her
obligations, forget Kim and her hubby and the rest of the employees at Cubic Z.
Ignore the whole wide world and live in this bubble of sex and chemistry and
the delicious sort of getting-to-know-you that fools a person into falling.
Boy, was she falling for him, headfirst into a crazy kind of like, the kind
that made her want to send him sweet texts and naughty texts, that made her
want to talk to him about everything and nothing, that made her want to hear
all about his day. Every day.
To be the first person he saw in the morning, and the last
one he saw at night.
What a crazy notion. She must he high. Intoxicated on epic
sex. She needed to clear her orgasm-clouded head.
“So, Miss Julia. How’s this going to work out?”
She raised an eyebrow inquisitively. “What do you mean?”
He pointed from her to him, speaking in a clear, firm voice.
“You and me. I don’t want this to just be a one-time thing. I want to see you
again.”

Finding the Right Girl by NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Violet Duke Tessa Daniels has no idea why she told her friend’s brother that she was a fling expert.

But consorting with the notorious bad boy puts her hard-won reputation on the line, and Riley must decide if the poker player is more to her than a little Text Appeal.

USA Today Bestselling Author Sawyer Bennett is the pen name for a snarky southern woman and reformed trial lawyer who decided to finally start putting on paper all of the stories that were floating in her head. She is married to a mobster (well, a market researcher) and they have three big, furry dogs who hog the bed. Sawyer would like to report she doesn’t have many weaknesses but can be bribed with a nominal amount of milk chocolate.
NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Lauren Blakely writes sexy contemporary romance novels with heat, heart, and humor, and her books have appeared on the New York Times, USA Today, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and iBooks bestseller lists. Like the heroine in FAR TOO TEMPTING, she thinks life should be filled with family, laughter, and the kind of love that love songs promise. Lauren lives in California with her husband, children, and dogs. Her novels include Caught Up InUs, Pretending He’s Mine, Playing With Her Heart, and Trophy Husband. She also writes for young adults under the name Daisy Whitney.
NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Violet Duke is a former professor of English Education who is ecstatic to now be on the other side of the page writing wickedly fun contemporary romance novels. When she's not arguing with her story characters or feeding her book-a-day reading addiction, she enjoys tackling reno projects with her power tools while trying pretty much anything without reading the directions first and cooking 'special edition' dishes that laugh in the face of recipes. Violet lives in Hawai'i with her two cute kids and similarly adorable husband.
USA Today Bestselling Author Karen Erickson lives in central California with her husband, three kids, one dog and too many cats. Being a romance writer and bringing her characters to life is her greatest dream come true.She also writes new adult romance as NYT & USA Today bestselling author Monica Murphy.
iBooks and International Bestselling Author Jessie Evans gave up a career as an international woman of mystery to write the sassy, Southern romances she always wanted to read.
She's married to the man of her dreams, and together they're raising a few adorable, mischievous children in a tree house in the boonies. She grew up in rural Arkansas, spending summers running wild, being chewed by chiggers, and now appreciates her home in a chigger-free part of the world even more.
When she's not writing, Jessie enjoys playing her dulcimer (badly), sewing the worlds ugliest quilts to give to her friends, going for bike rides with her house full of boys, and wandering the woods, glass of wine and camera both in hand, on the lookout for Bigfoot.
A southern girl, born and bred, Jessie loves writing Southern romances with just the right amount of sizzle, and hopes you'll enjoy her stories set in the fictional town of Summerville, Georgia. Especially the "Always a Bridesmaid" series!
USA Today Bestselling Author Melody Grace is the USA Today bestselling author of UNBROKEN and UNTOUCHED. A small-town girl turned SoCal beach-lover, she spent years with her nose in a book before deciding it was time to write them for herself. She loves bad boys, good books, and pistachio-flavored ice-cream.
NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Kendall Ryan is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of contemporary romance novels.
She's a sassy, yet polite Midwestern girl with a deep love of books, and a slight addiction to lip gloss! She lives in Minneapolis with an adorable husband, two naughty puppies, and a brand new son.
She enjoys hiking, being active, reading, and anything girly.
NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Lexi Ryan was once a college English professor, and now writes full time. She lives in rural Indiana, where, when she’s not writing, she gets to hang out with her husband and two kids--a six-year-old boy and a two-year-old hellion, er, girl. Not surprisingly, reading and writing remain her favorite activities, though both come in bits and pieces these days, not the big hunks of time she enjoyed before she had children. When she’s feeling virtuous, she likes to go running (She uses that word liberally. She’s really, really slow) or do yoga. Don't worry, she’s always careful to balance out such activities with a hearty serving of ice cream or a chocolate martini.
