Also: a look at competition for U.S. seasonal work visas in Guatemala.

Our audiobook tease this week is Because You’re Mine by Claire Contreras! When my sister asked me to take a course for her while she went out of town for work, I reluctantly agreed. I wasn’t expecting to step into a university auditorium filled with overactive libidos lusting after the professor. And I certainly wasn’t expecting to become one of those women myself, but there’s something about Lorenzo Costello that makes him irresistible. He’s the kind of man mothers warn their daughters about – mysterious, gorgeous, experienced, wild – and for some crazy reason he wants me. I should run far away and save myself from the impending heartache. So why am I racing toward him? I’m totally going to get burned. A man like Lorenzo won’t leave me unscathed. He’ll make ashes of me. Because You’re Mine is NOT a dark romance! It’s sexy and will keep you listening.  Amazon KU: https://amzn.to/3lXvCnS Audio: https://amzn.to/3gshylp RMR Website: https://bit.ly/3ifFIyw Weekly New Release: https://bit.ly/30iDete Follow Read Me Romance on Instagram: https://geni.us/uUVdVeY Join Read Me Romance Headquarters on FB: https://geni.us/IdL7B Find Alexa Riley on Instagram: https://bit.ly/2HGrxpQ Read Me Romance Theme Song by L.B.

Our audiobook this week is TEXTIN’ UP MY HEART by Teagan Hunter!   Narrated by Elizabeth Hart I never thought I was the type of girl to give a hoot about marriage. I didn’t fantasize about my wedding as a little girl. I’ve always firmly been in the “If it happens, it happens” camp. Even after I met Zach and decided to move in with him, I still felt that way. Until last month. I want to get married. I want to purchase a home that’s completely ours, to draw up our wills and get serious about our future. Want to do all the husband-and-wife things. As silly as it sounds, I want the piece of paper saying he’s mine forever. I just have no idea how to tell him that.

¿Estáis preparadas para regresar a vuestro pasado adolescente? Nosotras tampoco, pero es lo que toca, amiguis. Así que, McFly, písale al Delorean. En este nuevo capítulo de Gintonizadas, viajamos con Ana Cantarero a través de las TV-series del mundo teen que han hecho historia (Sensación de vivir, Gossip girl, Por trece razones, Élite…). En la sección El copazo literario, nuestra corresponsal del lado oscuro, May Boeken, reseña la novela Maldito Romeo de Leisa Rayven: una historia que (¡atención!, hecho insólito) nos rechifla A-TO-DAS. Pero ahí no termina la cosa. Silvia Sancho se ha saltado “la condicional” para entrevistar a una de las autoras que encabeza la lista bestsellers del New York Times. Ella se llama Claire Contreras y la recordaréis por su serie Corazones, publicada en español por ediciones Pàmies (sello Phoebe). Y, por último, antes de que suene la campana del recreo, Peque Zurita abrirá su mueble bar cargado de dulces yogurines: entre ellos, of course, no podía faltar el actor que interpretará al prota de la serie After (Anna Todd). ¿Queréis saber quién es este “mochuelo”? Pues ya sabéis, escuchadnos hasta el final (que puede ser pregunta de examen, ojito).

Our audiobook this week is Mated to the Reaper by Alexa Riley! Narrated by: Jack Stella & Robyn Verne Ariella Sterling was raised by a coven of vampires, but she was different than the rest of them. She was a miracle from the time she was born, and her parents worried about her safety. She was protected and cherished like no other because of her abilities, but something has changed since her eighteenth birthday. There’s a pain growing inside her and she doesn’t think she’s going to make it much longer. When the Grim Reaper walks in everything changes and now she’s got to fight for what’s hers. Grim Reaper has spent years alone carrying out what he’s destined to do. But when he’s called to take another immortal soul, he realizes this one is different. From the moment he sees Ariella, he knows she’s his mate, but her family steps in and tries to keep them apart. They can do what they want, but there’s no stopping Death, and he’s going to fight for what’s his. Warning: Does this all seem crazy to you? Well, that’s because it is! The Grim Reaper is here to fall in love and we’re supporting it one hundred percent! Sit back and enjoy their story without all the little details that don’t matter. It’s steamy good fun and we hope you love it, just like we do.

Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood Our audiobook this week is FAKE LOVE by Claire Contreras! In the twenty-five years I’ve known Cody York, the only thing I didn’t fake with him were my orgasms. In seventh grade, I faked a stomach flu to stay home and keep him company while he was sick. I ended up with a virus that kept me out of school for an entire week. In twelfth grade I faked an injury to avoid going to prom by myself. He took pity on me, dumped his original date and escorted me to the dance where the spurned girl dumped an entire pitcher of red punch over my head. In college, I faked being in a relationship with him to get him out of a bind with a classmate. Most recently, I faked a proposal, an engagement, and wedding date. Between the ring on my finger and the home-cooked meals every night, I fell for him. So I left, because Cody York is a good friend, but a terrible boyfriend. I had to leave before he broke my heart. We went from best friends to complete enemies and silent strangers. Now he’s calling in all his favors, asking me to be his date for his sister’s destination wedding. This time I’ll have to fake not loving him. FAKE LOVE ebook preorder: https://amzn.to/2OHt0dk Kaleidoscope Hearts by Claire Contreras is on SALE.
