Perfect for fans of Christina Lauren, Emma Chase, and Maya Banks, the anticipated finale in New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy’s sexy contemporary romance series about three fiery and determined sisters with their own ideas about life and love.

I’m in trouble. Again. And instead of facing my problems head-on, I’ve run away. Far away this time, and no one can catch me—not my two younger sisters, Violet and Rose, not my father, my grandmother, or that witch Pilar who wants to take control of my family’s cosmetics company. Now I’m in Hawaii, enjoying the sun and sand and water, where nobody knows the hot mess known as Lily Fowler. And I’m loving every minute of it.

But someone is watching me. Following me. He’s gorgeous. Soon we’re talking, and against all my instincts, I reveal bits and pieces of myself to Max. It feels good, though I know he can’t be the man for me. These sudden feelings we share are way too complicated, too fraught, too intense.

Then everything explodes and I’m forced to return home. My intentions have always been true, but now everyone’s mad at me. I don’t know who to turn to anymore . . . except to Max. He’s the one I want to trust. But I’m not so sure I should. Maybe it’s worth the risk—what-ifs be damned. . . .

Book Review: Stealing Rose by Monica Murphy

Title: Stealing Rose (The Fowler Sisters #2)
Author: Monica Murphy
Publication Date: March 03, 2015
Genre: New Adult, Erotica
e-ARC from Netgalley

iBooks | Amazon | B&N | KOBO

People say the youngest child has it easy, but nothing can be further from the truth. Unlike my two sisters, Violet and Lily, I’m never in the limelight. I just work my butt off for Fleur Cosmetics and get little to no thanks for it. I've been pushed too far one too many times, and I’m finally brave enough to do something about it.

Maybe my new found courage has something to do with the amazing pink and white diamond necklace I wear to the party in Cannes. The instant those dazzling heirloom jewels touch my skin, they excite some deep, aching need inside. And when that guy—that totally gorgeous guy—locks eyes with me, I know this nice girl is going to be naughty.

For once it’s my turn. My turn to say no to my father, to outshine my sisters, to walk away from it all—straight into the arms of a mysterious stranger. But what if Caden is much more than I bargained for? Sure, he makes me feel sexy and free in a way I never have before, but there’s something else I can’t quite place—something dangerous. Maybe our “chance” meeting wasn't so random. Maybe he was looking for me for a reason. Whatever his motive, there’s no going back now.

And maybe I don’t want to

Advance praise for Stealing Rose
“Prepare to have your heart stolen! Rose and Caden's story crackles and sizzles right to the swoony end.”—New York Times bestselling author Katy Evans

The rich girl and the poor boy! The good girl and the bad boy, the very bad boy. Well one thing for sure, this is not your average hot mess love story.

Rose, the always good and obedient daughter, follows all the rules, but one day she got tired of that life. All Rose wanted was to be free, experience life and let loose, then she met Caden, the crazy and goal-oriented thief. All it takes is one necklace to change their lives forever.

Stealing Rose is a sexy and intense novel of two people searching for life. It is about getting vengeance for the people you love, the unfamiliar bond with the family, being lost, and of course, finding love. The damaged hero and heroin finding one another to survive life. The chemistry between Rose and Caden is too strong that really spice up the story. I really liked how it ended, I mean, with the reconciliation of all the characters, you can feel their love for each other.

This book proves that everyone in this world can change, no matter how terrible the things you did in the past, there will always be a reason for change.

Well, if you loved the story of Violet and Ryder, you better read Stealing Rose, because they kinda intervene the story of Rose and Caden! Oh man, you seriously have to read it. Violet and Rose, the perfect sisters finding love with troubled men, well, up next is Taming Lily (Fowler Sisters #3). What's been up to the hot mess?

Book Review: Owning Violet by Monica Murphy

I've moved through life doing what's expected of me. I'm the middle daughter, the dutiful daughter. The one who braved a vicious attack and survived. The one who devoted herself to her family's business empire. The one who met an ambitious man and fell in love. We were going to run Fleur Cosmetics together, Zachary and I.

Until he got a promotion and left me in the dust. Maybe it's for the best, between his disloyalty and his wandering eye. But another man was waiting for me. Wanting me. He too has an overwhelming thirst for success, just like Zachary - perhaps even more so. He's also ruthless. And mysterious. I know nothing about Ryder McKay beyond that he makes me feel things I've never felt before.

One stolen moment, a kiss, a touch . . . and I'm hooked. Ryder's like a powerful drug, and I'm an addict who doesn't want to be cured. He tells me his intentions aren't pure, and I believe him. For once, I don't care. I'm willing to risk everything just to be with him. Including my heart. My soul.

My everything.

Advance praise for Owning Violet

"Owning Violet owned me from the first page to the last. Ryder and Violet's chemistry is off the charts! Read it, own it, love it!" - New York Times bestselling author Katy Evans

Violet is the perfect daughter, sister, girlfriend, and employee, but Ryder comes along with a hidden agenda. He is very ambitious and he will do whatever it takes to get that promotion and be successful, but that’s what he thought until he burned something inside Violet that she haven’t felt before. Ryder just wants to play a game with Violet, but he doesn’t know that this game will make a huge change in his life.

At first you will be seriously pissed at Ryder, but at the story progresses you will realize that he's not an asshole you thought he was. This book will make you want to punch Zachary in the balls. The phrase ‘once a cheater, always a cheater’ is seriously perfect for him.

Fun, sexy, annoying, panty-dropping and infuriating. Owning Violet will make you feel a lot of things in just a flick of your fingers.
