We thought death was the end, turns out it’s just the prologue.
RUE I died, briefly. Then I came back. Now I’m determined to make the most of every minute I have left. Only problem is I’ve been saddled with supervision. Kane Deveraux is handsome, smug, and cold as a tombstone. So why does he make me feel something more powerful than death? KANE As a reaper, I have helped crossover thousands of souls. And not one of them have touched mine…until Rue Chamberlain. She’s stubborn, reckless, and maddeningly radiant. And for this centuries-old spirit, she’s a living woman that is absolutely off-limits. If I follow the rules, I will lose her. If I break them, I might lose everything. Grim is a darkly romantic, wickedly funny tale of life, death, and a love that refuses to rest in peace. |

The Chameleon Effect
So I devise a wild scheme to get noticed. Pretend I’m someone I'm not—good-bye Will O’Connell of Cincinnati and hello Liam O’Connell of Dublin. "Liam" and his talent with accents is enough to get myfoot in the door, but I never anticipated meeting the woman who has me more worried about keeping my foot out of my mouth. Enter Raven Locke, the dark-haired bombshell who puts the ‘tude in tattooed. On set, she’s the costumer tasked with fitting my pants, but all I can think about is how to get into hers. As my—I mean, Liam’s—budding career begins to heat up, so do our feelings. While Raven pursues her passion for fashion; I chase her heart. Our picture-perfect screenplay seems sure to send us riding off onto Sunset Boulevard.... Until Raven finds out that Comedy and Tragedy aren’t the only masks I'm wearing. Our romance might be destined for the cutting-room floor, unless I can salvage our story with a plot twist she won't see coming. The Chameleon Effect is the debut solo novel written and performed by acclaimed, award-winning romance narrator Joe Arden, with a special guest appearance from Maxine Mitchell. A secret-identity romance from the man with the secret identity! This male POV rom-com has it all: lots of heat, plenty of heart, and a Hollywood-worthy HEA. |

A sexy stand-alone romance written by number one New York Times best-selling author Lauren Blakely and award-winning romance narrator Joe Arden!
Every man knows there are lines you don't cross. Like this one - don't bang your boss' little sister. Too bad I didn't know sexy, clever, irresistible London is related to the guy who signs my paychecks. Would have been helpful to have that intel before I took her out on that first date, before I kissed her on the beach, before I made plans to take her home that night. But now I know, and I'm going to be so damn disciplined. I'm a good guy, after all. And good guys don't break the golden rules of the bro code. I'm going to follow the heck out of all the rules. I won't break a single damn one. Even when London asks me to help her with a work project. One that has us working late every night, all alone, in my tiny apartment. One that tests every ounce of willpower I have. One that is driving me out of my ever loving mind. But I resist. Until the night she issues a challenge I can't refuse. The audiobook includes cameo appearances from Erin Mallon, Emma Wilder, and Maxine Mitchell! |
