Playing the Part by Robin Covington - Happy Release Day!!





From Robin Covington:  

I love movies. I love movie stars. I love romance novels.

In my latest release, PLAYING THE PART, I got to combine all three and set the book in L.A., a private estates  in Hawaii, and in NYC.  My story took place on movie sets, glamorous premieres, and the Oscars.

And I got to write about the action-movie star voted the Sexiest Man Alive for the past two years: Mick Blackwell. He’s a sexy, intriguing playboy who loves to break the rules.  But he’s met his match in Piper James — a sassy romance novelist who decides that Mick is just what she needs to spice up her short visit to L.A.

I loved writing this book.

Early reviews for PtP have been amazing.  NYT and USAToday Bestselling author Gina L. Maxwell said, "PLAYING THE PART blew me away with it's great characters, fast pace, and enough heat to warrant more than a few cold showers. Mick and Piper complement each other perfectly and make the reader root for them from Page 1. Robin's writing is tight and engaging and she nailed her characters. Definitely one of my favorite reads of 2013."

To celebrate the release, I’m giving away 11 packs full of awesome! The prize pack includes: A movie (either a Mick Blackwell action movie or a Piper James romance-my choice), popcorn, movie candy, and Robin Covington SWAG.

And . . . one lucky winner will get a prize pack and a $50 Amazon gift card!

I will pick the winners on Friday, June 20, 2013 at midnight EST.

The following is an excerpt from the book:  

“I have a dilemma,” he said. His voice was deep andmeasured but edged with the rough finish that made him a dream to listen to in surround sound. Piper swore she saw a jolt of fire in the mossy green depths of his eyes as he moved even closer.
Whoa. Mick Blackwell was hitting on her. And her body was responding like an addict who’d suddenly stumbled upon a pile of their favorite dope. He might be off-limits, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t indulge a little.
“What is your dilemma?” She mirrored his movement, deliberately stepping closer to the high voltage area of his body. Damn, he was like a sexual magnet, the black hole of hotness dragging her down.
He nodded. “I don’t know whether to call security or to get your phone number.” His expression shifted slightly, the twist in his smile even sexier—if that were even possible.
Oh, sweet sugar.
Mick moved in a half step closer, and heat swept over her skin, settling in her most intimate places. He was man every woman wanted in spite of his playboy reputation. Or maybe because of it. She loved men who came with a warning label. And Mick Blackwell didn’t just have a label—he had a neon “Flammable. Do not touch” sign flashing over his head.
But she couldn’t let a guy like him think he had the upper hand. Where was the fun in that?
“Maybe I should call security on you.” Piper licked her lips, delighting in the way his pupils dilated as he watched the movement of her tongue.
He let out a laugh, flashing a bit of his perfect, white teeth. Apparently, Mr. Blackwell liked a challenge.
“My mama taught me not to talk to strangers or dangerous men,” she said. “I think I’m supposed to go to the nearest public area and find a member of law enforcement.”
“So I’m a stranger?” He raised a hand and traced a finger along his lower lip in what was clearly an open invitation.
God help her, she wanted to follow that path with her mouth. “Actually, I think you fall into the dangerouscategory.”
“You have no idea.”
Oh, yes she did.

His Southern Temptation by Robin Covington

Amazon ~ B&N


Today we have a guest review by Passionate Patty 

Rating:  5 out of 5 hot Southern Tempting stars

When I turned the last page of this book, the thought that ran through my head was what a beautiful love story!  There's very hot sex, heartbreak, danger and anger. But the love between these two damaged people pulled me in.

Taylor Elliott is Teague Elliott's sister. We met Teague in the first novel by Ms. Covington. A Night of Southern Comfort. We also met the rest of The Boys, but this is David ( Lucky) Landon's story. Taylor is known best around town for her escape from her own wedding, by the way, in Lucky's car. She worshipped him as a young girl, and he found her a nuisance, but played along. She hasn't been back to town since that fateful day....until now.
Lucky is a former Special Ops. Soldier. The Black Ops he participated in were so deeply secretive, very few people even know his team existed. Now he would like to erase them from his own memory. He's home to take over the family farm, and try and live a normal life. He has been doing some work for his best friend and cousin Jack Cantrell, with his private detective agency.

Taylor and Lucky have been meeting secretly over the last few years when each could manage it. Meeting in various places around the world for a little comfort and love. Seeing Taylor again has convinced Lucky he wants more in his life. His farm and Taylor. Taylor wants a fling, but is definitely leaving town. Lucky just wants her to give him a chance to convince her they are made to be together.

This novel has something for everyone, it's funny, suspenseful, and sizzling hot. I hated it to end, but have hopes for the next bad boy's story! Wonder who it will be?

I received this novel from the publisher for an honest review, no compensation was offered nor taken.

A Night of Southern Comfort by Robin Covington

A Night of Southern Comfort......    By Robin Covington

Some advice for readers starting this novel. Keep a glass of something very cold nearby....your going to need it!

We meet a young beautiful woman in a hotel bar celebrating a new turn in her life. Across the room is a group of very handsome men playing pool, all in tuxes. One of these sexy men catches her eye. She was actually looking at his butt! He comes across the room and she asks if he would like a drink. Thus begins a night of passion that totally unnerves her. She has never done a one night stand. He agrees from the beginning...no names, no strings, one night. He calls her Gwyneth ( Paltrow) she calls him James ( Bond). He wakes up in the morning, and she is gone. He feels a strange tug in his chest, but laughs it off. What did he expect?

James and Gwyneth are destined to meet again. He turns out to be Jackson Cantrell , former FBI, now detective. She is Michaela Roarke , Pediatrician, daughter of the former Governor of Virgina. The night she was celebrating her new life? It was getting away from her extremely controlling and verbally abusive father. Life has some crazy things coming up for these two. In this HOT, suspenseful and funny story, we meet the residents of Elliott, Virginia. We also meet "The Boys", childhood friends who are still very close. " Lucky" Landon is Jack's partner and cousin, Dr. Beckett Sutherland surgeon, and Teague Elliott attorney. I'm so hoping Ms. Covington has some stories for these guys!

I finished this book in one day. From the first chapter to the last, the dialogue is great, the characters are strong and appealing, and the suspense will take you by surprise. I highly recommend this fast paced sizzling story. Hope there is more!
