Geneva Lee Announces New Release - GILT: By Invitation Only - Win an ARC!




New York Times and internationally best-selling author, Geneva Lee, announces new GILT Series -- described as "Veronica Mars" meets "Pretty Little Liars" --with a provocative cover reveal. GILT: By Invitation Only, which will hit shelves on Tuesday, May 31st, has already stirred a bit of controversy online because of its cover. A close-up picture of the delicate pink petals of a rosebud, it has readers' wondering whether it's symbolic of female genitalia.

While Lee is leaving interpretations of the cover up to the fans, she has this to say about the series: "It has been the ultimate guilty pleasure to write. I think that's because it combines that amazing visceral sensation of first love with scandal and bad boys, lies and murder. With GILT, I've given my wicked side free reign, and honestly, I'm having such a fun time with these characters."

Lee had originally intended the series to take place in the south, but after a recent trip to Las Vegas had her wondering what it would be like to grow up in the dark, gritty, and glamorous place, she was inspired to shift gears and setting to explore the world known as Sin City through the eyes of protagonist, Emma Southerly. Emma, who was raised in Vegas, but is an outsider to its elite circles, will have to discover if she's a pawn or a player in dangerous games.

In addition to the suggestive cover, the marketing of the series promises to be as engaging as the twists and turns contained within it, starting with a Las Vegas-themed casino party at UTOPiA reader and writer con in Nashville, TN on Saturday, June 25th. The sold-out party will entertain 500 guests, including fellow authors, fans, industry influencers, book cover models, and fans, before the Fifth Annual UTOPiA Awards that night.

Lee confirms three books in the GILT series will be released rapid fire in 2016.

 JOIN the sinful cocktail hour hosted by Geneva Lee at UTOPiAcon! Saturday, before the awards, in the Crown Ballroom at the Millennium Maxwell House at 6:30PM CST.

About GILT: By Invitation Only: In a world with too much money and not enough rules, anything goes. Welcome to Belle Mère, the most exclusive zip code outside the Las Vegas Strip. It's every sinner's fantasy and every good parent's worst nightmare.

Emma Southerly doesn't belong at Belle Mère Prep despite her new stepfather's money. Not after she shunned her invite to the popular table, and especially not after what happened last summer. So when her best friend begs her to crash an invite-only, end of the year party, she should say no with a capitol H-E-L-L.

It's just a party. What could go wrong?

Getting kicked out to start. Running into the man who destroyed your family.

Everything.

Until she meets Jamie, who's also hiding from the in-crowd. After spending the night with the cute stranger, Emma barely makes it home before news hits Belle Mère's brunch tables. A body's been found on the West estate, and Jamie is the number one suspect. But he couldn't have done it…right?

Emma isn't sure she can trust him or the rest of Belle Mère. After all, no one is safe when everyone is a liar.

“When something is damaged or broken, the pieces can be put back together, but they will never be the same.”
KATIE: When I was left to raise my daughter alone, I decided dating just wasn't worth it. I never wanted my daughter to experience the kind of heartbreak only a man can give you and I didn't have the time, until Nicholas Sinclaire came walking into my life with his charming smile and his mischievous eyes. I just wish I would have known how it was going to end.
NICK: I knew she was it for me the moment I met her, but I had to leave. I had one more tour to do overseas and then I could come home to her for good. Little did we know, I wouldn't come back the same man. I was damaged beyond repair, so I pushed them away and hurt them. It didn't take me long to realize the mistake I had made. Now, I will stop at nothing to get them back in my life, but will Katie want my Damaged Pieces?
*This book can be read as a standalone.*

Finding Home - Breaking Free Series Book 1

Blurb

Katerina
After a six year relationship with someone who made Katerina feel less than perfect, she is ready for a fresh start. With her grandmother’s words in her mind, she begins seeking out new experiences by creating a list of adventures she’d like to complete. First on the list, a night out with friends. Which leads to the second item on her list, a one night stand. That single night with Caleb is one she can’t get out of her head. However, just when she thinks her life is moving forward, her past comes back. Making her doubt herself, her adventure list and her dreams of finding home.
Caleb
Caleb isn’t the settling down type. His life is exactly what he wants, an uncomplicated routine. He has his boys, his business, his bass and his bike. Caleb’s life motto is work hard, ride his motorcycle harder and play music the hardest. Until the night he met Katerina. Suddenly, everything he thought he wanted wasn't enough. For the first time in his life, he was thinking about his future. His future with her.

Excerpt
Caleb puts his hand on my chin, tilts my head to the side so he exposes my neck, dropping his lips
first on my shoulders. He begins trailing light kisses up my neck. I can feel his tongue making
contact with each kiss, leaving my skin slightly dampened. When he hits each sensitive spot on
my neck, goose bumps form on my skin. The way he touches me has me wanting more. I grip his
hair tighter, pulling his lips to mine. He teases my lips with his tongue before gently biting my lip,
which causes my mouth to open. As if he’s tasting me, he grazes my tongue lightly, before
entangling it with mine. This is the sexiest kiss I ever had. Panty melting, toe curling, chills down
my spine good.
Excerpt
Caleb is in full rock mode as he plays. My body temperature shot up twenty degrees the minute I
saw him on stage. Instantly, I start taking some pictures, wanting to capture the moment. I don’t
take my eyes off him. Caleb’s well-worn denim jeans ride low on his hips, and his tight black tank
top show off his muscles and tattoo. His stance is wide and low, his hat covers his eyes, as his
head bangs to the beat. My panties get wet looking at him up on stage.
One song turns into another. Slither is amazing, and the guys are completely in their element on
stage. I watch each of them. Hunter is crazy up there playing the drums. Jeremy kicks ass on the
guitar. Bentley is everything a lead singer should be, drawing in the audience. Aly is watching
every move he makes. We are jumping to the beat, getting into it with everyone else. I’m in love
with every song they are playing. I recognize the guitar chords of Creed’s One. Only this time
Caleb walks up to the microphone. When he starts singing the first words, I bite my lip in
amazement. Holy shit, he can sing. Can this man get any hotter? His voice is sultry and raw. As I
stare in awe, he looks down and winks at me. I think my panties melted off at that point. The
thought of actually throwing them on stage crossed my mind. But I didn’t.
Aly looks at me, "You are one lucky bitch. He's fucking hot up there." I know, and he is mine
tonight.
About the Author
becca taylor banner
I love to read books. I can easily read a book in a matter of hours. I've even been known to read the same books over and over. For a short time, life got in the way and I stopped reading. I fell in love with books again after reading a well known series. So much that I read it five times in a row.
When I started branching out of my normal genre, I found so many new Indie authors that were truly amazing.
One night after reading a book, I had a rather vivid dream. I decided to write it down. Each day I wrote a little more. Within a month, I had a completed book. Now, I'm working on a series. Starting a new adventure in my life, one that I never knew was in me.
