Hey, y’all. I’m tickled to welcome Kimberly Kincaid back to Brain Candy. She wowed us with her If You Like Jill Shalvis recommendations a few weeks ago, and now she’s here to give us Cherry Adair fans some new authors to check out! Cherry is one of the funniest and most generous ladies I know. And even more than that, she has fab shoes and jewelry. Color me jealous!
Welcome back, Kimberly!
If You Like Cherry Adair…
Let’s be honest. If you’ve read Cherry Adair’s, sexy, sizzling romantic suspense novels, then hot heroes and fast-paced plots are your thing. Here’s just a peek at a few authors who set the romantic suspense bar at the same oh-yes setting as Cherry.
Avery Flynn. Like Cherry Adair, Avery Flynn is big on voice and even bigger on sexy Alpha heroes. Her fresh take on tried-and-true plot ideas is witty and refreshing, and Flynn knows how to amp up the tension between her characters, both between the sheets and when they’re running for their lives. Snap up her latest, High-Heeled Wonder, and you’ll be too busy clicking your e-reader to nod in agreement!
Carolyn Crane. Successful romantic suspense has smart, fast-paced plot lines, and Carolyn Crane doesn’t disappoint. She strikes a fine balance between detail and action, with dark, brooding heroes with enough flaws to be real, and enough depth to keep you turning the pages ‘til they’re gone. Try Off The Edge for a thrilling read.
Kimberly Kincaid. Nothing says “hero material” quite like a man or woman in uniform, something I wanted to embody in my Line series, which centers around hot cops doing tough jobs. Splitting the difference between romance and suspense, these stories will hook you in with both! Start with Love On The Line to get your fix of sexy cops!
Kimberly Kincaid’s Love on the Line: (NOW 99 CENTS ON AMAZON!)
Violet Morgan puts the personal in personal chef, catering to clients who want the full cooking experience rather than a culinary drop-and-dash. But when her brother’s police detective partner is injured in the line of duty and needs help during recovery, she makes an exception. Violet lost her father to the job seven years ago, and worries for her brother’s safety every day. The last thing she wants is to get up-close with her brother’s career-cop partner…again.
For Noah Blackwell, being a detective isn’t just a lifestyle, it’s a legacy. So when he’s forced to take mandatory leave and deal with the trauma amnesia keeping him from identifying his shooter, it’s a literal case of adding insult to injury— and now he’s got to deal with an unwanted culinary caregiver on top of it. Never mind that he and Violet shared a steamy, secret kiss last New Year’s Eve. She rejects everything related to the job, and Noah’s not about to be distracted from recovering his memory and getting back to what he does best. No matter how pretty Violet is.
Despite their differences, Violet and Noah share a surprising bond in the kitchen that grows into something neither of them expect. But as Noah heals and their feelings for each other extend from the kitchen to the bedroom, Violet knows she must make an impossible choice. She may wear her heart on her sleeve when it comes to food, but can she risk it all to put love on the line?
