Special Guest Post and Giveaway by Release Me Author J. Kenner

01/03/2013

For fans of Fifty Shades of Grey and Bared to You comes an erotic, emotionally charged romance between a powerful man who’s never heard “no” and a fiery woman who says “yes” on her own terms. 

He was the one man I couldn’t avoid. And the one man I couldn’t resist. 
 
Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: Anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me.
 
Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past—and risk breaking us apart.
 
But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him—and us—forever.

Release Me is an erotic romance intended for mature audiences.

Read an excerpt of Release Me here.   See my review of Release Me here.

Purchase Release Me by J. Kenner at  Amazon || BN.com || iBooks or  https://www.randomhouse.com/book/225186/release-me-by-j-kenner

Please welcome, J. Kenner, author of Release Me to Ana’s Attic!

I’m so excited to be here in this fresh and shiny new year for today’s stop on the Release Me blog tour!

2012 was a landmark year for me with regard to social media.  I’ve had a Twitter account and a Facebook account for a while, but I confess that I wasn’t really very good at it.  I sort of stumbled along, not quite knowing how to tell when someone had left me a message and other newbie type things.

In the summer, though, I decided that enough was enough.  I was going to dive into social media and figure it out.  And I did.

And I love it!

I have had so many fun back and forth conversations on Twitter with all sorts of people about all sorts of topics (Downton Abbey, Vampire Diaries, homeschooling, haircuts, all sorts of stuff!)  And on Facebook, I’ve interacted with readers in a way that I really hadn’t been able to in the past.  It. Is. Awesome!

Especially with regard to Release Me, it has been such a pleasure to share tidbits as I counted down to publication, and get feedback from folks who were excited about the book coming out.  And having the J. Kenner Facebook page has been such a wonderful way to interact with folks who picked up a copy of the book and posted on my timeline to tell me about it (thanks, y’all!).

I’ve had private messages from readers who identify with the characters’ issues, and inquiries from readers all over the globe asking about when foreign editions will be out.

It has been such a pleasure—and so wonderful to have a group of readers with whom I can share great news (for example, as I write this, Release Me is number THREE overall in the Nook store!).

Having Facebook and Twitter on my phone helps, too, as does finally realizing that I can have notifications emailed to me (for someone who’s pretty tech savvy, I was a bit slow on the uptake)!

So for folks still hesitant to join social media, I say dive right in—the water’s fine!  I promise!

And, of course, I’d love to meet all of you in cyberspace!  My website is www.jkenner.com, and I’m on Facebook as J. Kenner at www.facebook.com/jkennerbooks and on Twitter at www.twitter.com/juliekenner

J. Kenner is the pen name of USA Today bestselling author Julie Kenner (who also writes as J.K. Beck).  Release Me, an erotic romance, went on sale January 1 and is climbing the lists at various retailers! 

J Kenner is giving away a copy of Release Me to one lucky US winner. Just comment here and follow the rafflecopter for more entries!

🎄 FUN, FESTIVE, AND FILTHY! 🎧🔥 If National Lampoo 🎄 FUN, FESTIVE, AND FILTHY! 🎧🔥If National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation were a spicy romance, I imagine it would look a lot like Christmas Staycation by Meghan Quinn!I had SO MUCH FUN with this audiobook! 😂 The humor is completely juvenile, the family is chaotic, and Nolan has absolutely NO FILTER. Seriously, that man’s mind lives in the gutter, and I loved every minute of it.But underneath all the dirty jokes and Christmas chaos, there’s a surprisingly swoony romance. Nolan may be a walking sexual innuendo, but his sweet little gestures and golden retriever energy totally won me over. ❤️And the AUDIO! 🎧 The full-cast duet narration was fantastic. Shane East as the story’s narrator, especially when the characters start interacting with him, made the whole experience even funnier. Kelsey Navarro Foster and Brandon Francis were amazing as leads and made me wonder why I don’t see them used more. Swipe through for the tropes, some hilariously filthy quotes, my quick take, rating, and all the audiobook details!If you love outrageous humor, holiday romance, and a hero who has never met an inappropriate comment he didn’t want to make, add this one to your Christmas reading list!🎄 Full review with likes & dislikes at anasattic.comHave you read Meghan Quinn’s Kringletown Christmas books?

Add in some adorable animals, a little mystery, and plenty of spice, and I was happily back in Evergreen Falls!🎧 Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon lead an amazing full-cast duet narration that makes this story even more fun. I seriously can’t imagine experiencing Lauren’s books any other way!If you love grumpy/sunshine Christmas romances, add this one to your holiday listening list!
I love how the narrator and Nolan break the fourth I love how the narrator and Nolan break the fourth wall in the Kringletown books.  Make sure the sound is on so you see what I mean. Christmas Staycation by @meghanquinnbooks had me laughing out loud! Nolan is a goofy immature perv with loyal, sweet and loving acts of service, and I am totally here for it. My full review is on the blog (link in bio). Meghan has been a long time favorite author, and she just keeps reinforcing that status! Grab this Christmas romcom on audio, the full cast narration audiobook makes it a full experience you don’t want to miss!Note: this is the Walmart special edition paperback.

It’s long and you won’t want to get up so make sure you pee, pick a comfy theater, and don’t drink your whole bucket of soda. I didn’t think I wanted to see a documentary in the theater, I was wrong. Sold out theater and nobody got up during the whole 3 hour film. Everyone in the bathroom was saying how great it was and how much they had to go the whole time lol. It still has a 98% RT score.
