GOODREADS BLURB

America is falling, ready to join the Roman Empire as a distant memory in the annals of history. The year is 2027. Tired and desperate, the American people are deep in the middle of The Second Great Depression. The Florida coastline is in ruins from the most powerful hurricane on record; a second just like it is bearing down on the state of Texas. For the first time in history, the Middle East has united as one and amassed the most formidable army the world has seen since the Third Reich. A hidden army of terrorists is on American soil. This is the story of three men: Howard Beck, the world’s richest man, also diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome. Richard Dupree, ex-Navy SEAL turned escaped convict. Maxwell Harris, a crippled, burned out Chief of Police of a small Texas town. At first they must fight for their own survival against impossible odds. Finally, the three men must band together to save their beloved country from collapse.

It feels to me like I have read the book, but don’t find a review and marked read anywhere. It looks fantastic and worth another read, just to make sure. I downloaded it from Amazon on 8.23.12 and added it my TBR on 8.8.12. Looks like I won another good book.

Goodreads rating: 3.68

Survivor On Steroids – Undress Me: Reality TV Romance by Kristine Mason @KristineMason7

.

I am a huge fan of Kristine Mason’s work, but I have stopped reviewing her books because I proofread them. I think people will believe I am biased and I don’t want that to turn them off to her wonderful stories. Here’s the latest.

GOODREADS BLURB

Casting director Erica Reese has her life planned: career, monetary success, then maybe marriage and children. Unfortunately, if she doesn’t leave Los Angeles and accept a new position in New York City, producer Derek Delmont will screw up her plans. What was supposed to be a hot distraction from her busy, lonely life has begun to turn into something Erica doesn’t want—love.

Known as the king of reality television, Derek is wealthy, sexy, a total playboy, and crazy about Erica. After being rejected by his family and ex-wife, and sick of being used by people hoping to get ahead in Hollywood, Erica isn’t just a breath of fresh air, she’s hurricane-force winds. She’s blown into his life and has him ready to take another shot at love.

Anxious to take their affair to the next level, Derek invites Erica to join him on an exotic Caribbean island where his crew will begin filming his reality show, Bared and Scared. Before they can reach the luxurious resort, a tropical storm separates them from the crew and leaves them lost in a deadly jungle. While they search for a way out, they’re forced to face the past, present and future. And as they battle the elements, the harsh environment will test their feelings for each other beyond anything either of them ever expected. Can their relationship survive the journey? The bigger question…can they?

Takes Survivor one step further.
