COVER REVEAL: Getting Real by Emma Chase

Emma Chase has revealed the cover for Getting Real!

Releasing in audiobook: October 28, 2021

Releasing in ebook & print: January 31, 2022

A sexy, hilarious, emotional, new romance from New York Times bestselling author Emma Chase.

Connor Daniels never thought he’d be starting over at dating square one. His career as a successful doctor, and his three boys, are everything to him. It’s not exactly a setup conducive to a scorching social life—but he’s giving it a shot.

ER nurse Violet Robinson never intended for Connor to find out she’s had a crush on him forever. It was a dirty little secret only meant for her dirty dreams. Her heart trips every time he’s around—and so do her feet.

When Connor sees Violet coasting across the grocery store parking lot—and she falls on her face—he starts falling for the gorgeous, young nurse right back.

Dating can be tricky. And life can be beautiful and crazy and unpredictable. But when it gets real, you discover what matters most . . . and the one person you want loving you through it all.

Excerpt

“Look guys,” I hold up my hands, “I appreciate your concern, honestly. But I know exactly what I’m doing—everything’s going to be fine.”

If this were a movie, now would be the time when the narrator’s voiceover comes on and informs the audience that I did not, in fact, know what I was doing and nothing—nothing—was going to be fucking fine.

~Connor Daniels, GETTING REAL

Release Day Blitz: Royally Yours by Emma Chase

          

 Princess Lenora Celeste Beatrice Arabella Pembrook had an unusual childhood. She was raised to be a Queen—the first Queen of Wessco. It’s a big deal. When she’s crowned at just nineteen, the beautiful young monarch is prepared to rule. She’s charming, clever, confident and cunning. What she isn’t…is married. It’s her advising council’s first priority. It’s what Parliament is demanding, and what her people want. Lenora has no desire to tie herself to a man—particularly one who only wants her for her crown. But compromises must be made and royals must do their duty. Even Queens. Especially them. ** Years ago, Edward Langdon Richard Dorian Rourke, walked away from his title and country. Now he’s an adventurer—climbing mountains, exploring jungles, going wherever he wants, when he wants—until family devotion brings him home. And a sacred promise keeps him there. To Edward, the haughty, guarded little Queen is intriguing, infuriating…and utterly captivating. Wanting her just might drive him mad—or become his greatest adventure. ** Within the cold, stone walls of the royal palace—mistrust threatens, wills clash, and an undeniable, passionate love will change the future of the monarchy forever. Every dynasty has a beginning. Every legend starts with a story. This is theirs.

Audiobook Lovin' Presents: Emma Chase Interview

Our guest today is one of my favorite authors, Emma Chase!

Hi Emma, thank you very much for joining us once again for Audiobook Lovin’!! 

Hi!! So happy to be here with you!


For those that may not know you, why don’t we start by having you tell us a little bit about yourself and how you became an author?

I live in New Jersey with my awesome husband and two energetic children. I write sexy, funny, contemporary romance. My first book, Tangled, is an irreverent rom-com told exclusively from the hero, Drew Evans’s, POV. When it was published in 2013, it was kind of an unexpected hit that landed on the NY Times bestseller list. Since then, I’ve published with Simon & Schuster and independently: the Tangled Series, the Legal Briefs Series, the Royally Series and the upcoming, Getting Schooled. It’s been a wonderful, amazing journey.


I became an “Emma Chase fan” when I listened to “Sustained (The Legal Briefs Series Book 2)”, narrated by Sebastian York (LOVE HIM!)! What made you decide to turn your books into audiobooks?

I’m so glad you enjoyed Sustained – and Sebastian York is fantastic (before I even started writing Sustained, I knew I wanted SY to narrate it)! I love audiobooks. They’re great for multitasking, but more, they offer a new way to experience a story that’s different from reading. They’re audio performances, that bring characters to life in a captivating, beautiful way.


Are you involved in the casting of your audiobooks and if so how do you go about selecting your narrators? 

Yes, I’m involved. Sometimes I’ll have a narrator already in mind or, other times, the publisher will send me audio clips from a few narrators and we’ll decide who’s the best fit for the story.
For me, choosing a narrator is about the voice—they have to sound like the character I hear in my head. Comedic timing is important in my stories as well and being able to convey the personality of the characters. I’ve been fortunate to work with some of the most talented narrators in the industry. 

Audiobook Review: Getting Schooled by Emma Chase

Getting Schooled
By: Emma Chase
Narrated by: Zachary Webber & Andi Arndt

Blurb: 
Available in audio-first, an extraordinary new romance by New York Times best-selling author Emma Chase!

Head of the class...

Garrett Daniels has this whole life thing figured out.

The cocky, charismatic former high school star quarterback is an idolized football coach and "cool" teacher in the hometown where he's not just a golden boy — he's platinum. He has good friends, a great house on the lake, and the best damn sidekick a man could ask for: Snoopy, the albino beagle.

Then...Callie Carpenter comes home.

And knocks him right on his tight end zone.

Back to school...

Callie has a pretty sweet life herself...on the other side of the country. But circumstances — that she'd prefer to never speak of again — have brought her back home, helping out her parents and substitute teaching at her old high school.

Now she's facing bickering, raging hormones, constant gossip, awkward weirdness, and drama galore...and that's just the teachers.

Just like old times...

When Garrett offers to show his former high school sweetheart the secrets of his winning teacher ways, Callie jumps at the chance — and then has to stop herself from jumping him.

Good friends are all they can ever be.

Or...these teachers just might end up getting schooled — hard — by love.

Includes a special bonus interview with the author!

Viviana's Review: 

Let's not kid ourselves.... that cover made you WANT to learn more about "Getting Schooled" and who was going to teach us (oh baby!)! The blurb totally makes you add it to the wish list/ buy it now that its available and the narrators completely seals the deal!!

This story totally rocked and it might by my favorite book of hers (I LOVE her "Royally Series" and til now, my favorite Emma Chase series/books). As someone who wanted to be a teacher growing up and realized that it wasn't for me and not because I lacked passion or didn't like kids, but the system... yeah.. that's another story. However, I did work in the school system for a few years and end up marrying a teacher. I LOVED Garrett and I think Emma nailed it on the head when it comes to what it takes to be a great teacher and how the kids are! 

While this is a second chance romance, its also about the two individuals realizing what they actually want in life. It was great to see them when they first were dating and have them come back together again.

The secondary characters are great!! There were so many moments where I laughed out loud! OMG, and her parents!!! You have GOT to listen to this to understand and its so worth the credit or if you subscribe to the Romance Package you can get it there! I really do hope that Emma writes some of the secondary characters' stories!!

Narrators' Review:

This is Zackary Webber at his best!! Zackary always brings an emotional undertone to the characters he performs but he really knocks it out of the park with GETTING SCHOOLED as Garrett! His comedic timing is the best and his portrayal of the students is spot on.

Andi Arndt.... Andi Arndt... what can I say, other than Andi is an awesome narrator. Her performance is golden and she did a phenomenal job with her performance as Callie and all the others!!

Overall, this was truly a gem to listen to and one that I would listen to over again! Between the great storyline and the characters, you can't go wrong. This audiobook had it all, romance, laughter, great characters and stories, emotional connections, steaminess, all around AWESOMENESS! 

Rating: 5 Stars - Perfection!

Release Day Blitz: ​ROYALLY ENDOWED by Emma Chase

Ohhhh I've been waiting for this book ever since the end of the second book! I love the world and characters Emma has created and I can't wait to start the audiobook as the narrators do a phenomenal job in their performance! 

Royally Endowed 

(The Royally Series Book 3)

by Emma Chase

Logan St. James is a smoldering, sexy beast. Sure, he can be a little broody at times—but Ellie Hammond’s willing to overlook that. Because, have you seen him?? 

Sexy. As. Hell. 

And Ellie’s perky enough for both of them.

For years, she’s had a crush on the intense, gorgeous royal security guard—but she doesn’t think he ever saw her, not really. 

To Logan, Ellie was just part of the job—a relative of the royal family he’d sworn to protect. Now, at 22 years old and fresh out of college, she’s determined to put aside her X-rated dreams of pat-downs and pillow talk, and find a real life happily ever after. 

The Queen of Wessco encourages Ellie to follow in her sister’s footsteps and settle down with a prince of her own. Or a duke, a marquis…a viscount would also do nicely. 

But in the pursuit of a fairy tale ending, Ellie learns that the sweetest crushes can be the hardest to let go.

***

Logan St. James grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, in a family on the wrong side of the law. But these days, he covers his tattoos and scars with a respectable suit. He’s handsome, loyal, brave, skilled with his hands and…other body parts. 

Any woman would be proud to call him hers. 

But there’s only one woman he wants. 

For years he’s watched over her, protected her, held her hair back when she was sick, taught her how to throw a punch, and spot a liar.

He dreams of her. Would lay down his life for her. 

But beautiful Ellie Hammond’s off-limits. 

Everybody knows the bodyguard rules: Never lose focus, never let them out of your sight, and never, ever fall in love.

Prologue

Logan

Some men think with their cocks.

You know the type. Quick smooth-talkers, shifty eyes always scanning for a nice pair of legs, a set of full tits, or a tight arse they can pant after.

Other blokes think too much with their brains. You know that type too. Annoyingly careful, slow-moving, constantly parsing their words like they already know whatever they’re saying is going to come back and take a bite out of them.

I’m not either of those.

I always go with my gut. When it clenches with a warning, I act—no hesitation. When it tugs and nudges, I pause and reevaluate. When it twists and writhes, I know, guaranteed, I’ve cocked up big-time.

My gut is my best friend, my conscience, my most lethal asset.

And it has never let me down.

It’s my gut that drags me to her door. That roots me in place as I knock. That gives me the words—pleading, unfamiliar remorseful words—I’ll gladly say to make this right.

To get her back.

Because while my gut is brilliant, sometimes I can be a real fucking idiot.

Yesterday was one of those times.

“Ellie. It’s me—open up, we need to talk.”

I sense movement on the other side of the solid oak door—not in sounds or shifting shadows beneath it, but more of an awareness. I can feel her in there. Nearby and listening.  

“Go away, Logan.”

Her voice is tight, higher-pitched than usual. Upset.

“Ellie, please. I was a twat, I know . . .” I’m not keen on begging from the hallway, but if that’s what it takes . . .  “I’m sorry. Let me in.”

Ellie is difficult to anger, quick to forgive; she just doesn’t have it in her to hold a grudge. So her next words fall like an axe—cutting my legs right off from under me.

“No, you were right. The princess’s sister and the East Amboy bodyguard don’t make sense—we’ll never last.”

Did I actually say that to her? What the fuck is wrong with me? What I feel for her is the one thing in my life that makes sense. That matters.

But I never told her that.

Instead . . . instead, I said all the wrong things. 

I brace my palm against the smooth wood, leaning forward, wanting to be as near to her as possible. “Elle . . .”

“I’ve changed my mind, Logan.”

If a corpse could speak, it would sound exactly like my Ellie does now. Flat, lifeless.  

“I want the fairy tale. I want what Olivia has . . . castles and carriages . . . and you’ll never be able to give me that. I would just be settling for you. You’ll never be able to make me happy.”

She doesn’t mean that. They’re my words—the insecurities I put on her—that she’s hurling back in my face.  

But God, it fucking hurts to hear. Physically hurts—stabbing deep into the pit of my stomach, crushing my chest, grinding my bones. I meant it when I said I would die for her . . . and right now, it feels like I am. 

I grab the doorknob to walk inside, to see her face. To see that she doesn’t mean it.

“Ellie—”

“Don’t come in!” she screeches like I’ve never heard her before. “I don’t want to see you! Go away, Logan. We’re done—just go!”

I breathe hard—that’s what you do when pain wrecks you, breathe through it. Then I swallow bile, straighten up, turn around and walk down the hall. Away from her. Just like she wants, like she asked. Like she screamed.

My brain tells me to move faster—get the hell out of there, cut my losses and lick my wounds. And my heart—Christ—that poor bastard’s too battered and bloody to say anything at all.

But then, just over halfway down the hall, my steps slow until I stop completely. 

Because my gut . . . it strains through the hurt. Rebels. It shouts that this isn’t right. This isn’t her. Something’s off. 

And even more than that . . . something is very, very wrong.

I glance up and down the quiet hall—not a guard or a maid in sight. I look back at the door. Closed and silent and still.

Then I turn and march straight back to it. I don’t knock, or wait, or ask for permission. In one move, I turn the knob and step inside.

What I see there stops me cold. 

Because whatever I was expecting, it sure as fuck wasn’t this.

Not at all . . .
