Blog Tour: Third Debt by Pepper Winters - Sneak Peek & Giveaway!

Blurb

“She healed me. She broke me. I set her free. But we are in this together. We will end this together. The rules of this ancient game can’t be broken.”

Nila Weaver no longer recognises herself. She’s left her lover, her courage, and her promise. Two debts down. Too many to go.

Jethro Hawk no longer recognises himself. He’s embraced what he always ran from, and now faces punishment far greater than he feared.

It’s almost time. It’s demanding to be paid.

The Third Debt will be the ultimate test...

HOW HAD THIS happened?

Where did it all go so wrong?

Jethro was supposed to love me. I was supposed to love him.

Yet he’d given me over to his family. He’d bound the ropes, blindfolded my eyes, and gifted me to his kin.

“Know what time it is, Nila Weaver?” Daniel breathed in my ear.

I jerked away. The restraints around my body meant I couldn’t run, couldn’t fight; I couldn’t even see.

Oh, God.

Please don’t let them do this.

I wanted to scream for Jethro to save me. I wanted him to put an end to this and claim me once and for all. Didn’t our connection mean anything?

You know it’s all different now.

Ever since I’d returned to Hawksridge Hall, things had been different—horribly, horribly different.

The fire crackled in the billiards room where the Hawk men had been playing poker. The air was hot and muggy and laced with cognac fumes.

Tonight, I’d had plans to end whatever changed between Jethro and me forever.
But now…those plans had changed.

Kestrel ran his fingers over my collar. “Relax, little Weaver. It will all be over soon.”
Cut chuckled. “Yes, soon you can go to sleep and pretend none of this happened.”

My ears strained for one other voice. The voice of the man who controlled my heart even though he’d thrown it back in my face.

But only silence greeted me.

Daniel snickered, licking my cheek. “Time to pay, Weaver.”

Someone clapped and in a voice full of darkness and doom said, “It’s time for the Third Debt.”




​​


​​

I shook my head, my heart smarting with pain. “What happened to you?” I reached for him, wanting to clutch his forearm and reassure myself that our bond was still there.
With a sneer, he sidestepped, staying out of reach. “What happened to me?” Smiling coldly, he made me seem as if I were some idiot child asking for the universe’s secrets. “I got better. That’s what happened to me.”

“I don’t—I don’t understand. You weren’t ill.”

“You wouldn’t understand. No one can understand another’s problems. All you need to know is that I’m cured and I won’t make the same mistakes again.”

I took a step back, goosebumps scattering over my body. “Don’t say that. I’m in love with you. Something like that cannot be undone—”

“Love is a chemical imbalance, Ms. Weaver. I am no longer imbalanced.” He came closer. “Don’t get cold feet on your invitation. You promised you would come, and you don’t want to give me a reason to punish you so soon…do you?”

My skin pinpricked with panic. That sentence should’ve dripped with eroticism. But it wasn’t. It was cold…lifeless…like him.

Snapping his fingers, Jethro held out his hand. He kept his digits curled slightly so I couldn’t see the tattoo marks on the tips. “Come. I want to be back at Hawksridge before sunrise.”



​​

Nila dropped the jumper onto the desk, cupping her breasts. “Does this count as acceptable to you?”

I couldn’t breathe.

Everything I’d been running from made my head pound, my cock beg, and the drugs in my system to fucking disintegrate.

What was it about her? Why did she have this control over me? And why was I utterly, ridiculously helpless around her?

God fucking help me.

Didn’t she know the more she antagonised me and made me slip, the more likely Cut would give her to Daniel and fucking slaughter me in my sleep? I wanted to strike her—hammer the precariousness of our situation home.

“Why did you bring me here?” she murmured, skirting the desk.

I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the hard pinpricks on her chest. She couldn’t be cold—not in this furnace. That meant she was turned on.

My mind instantly went to one question. Is she wet?

“Kes told you. Our secrets are now yours.”

“I don’t think that’s the only reason.” Closing the distance, she licked her bottom lip. “I think you wanted me off the estate, so you could have me without anyone seeing.” Her voice layered with sex and invitation. “You wanted me away from the cameras, so you could drop the act and show me the truth.”

Fuck.

I cleared my throat. “What truth?”

“That all of this is a lie. That you’re still the man I fell for—playing the same game you said you were sick of before I left.”

Shaking my head, I tried to clear my thoughts. “You’re once again delusional.” Swallowing hard, I ordered, “Go down to the sorting floor. I have a meeting to take care of—”

“No,” she breathed. “I’m not going anywhere until you stop being an asshole and show me the real you.” Closing the final distance, she stood beside me, crackling with mischief and lust. Locking eyes, she undid the button and zipper of her jeans. “Don’t hide from me, Jethro. I can’t stay strong if you cut me out.”

My legs bunched to push the swivel chair backward. One heave and I could launch myself free and run from her web. But somehow, I couldn’t. I remained tethered in place; breathing fast, fear swamping my lungs.

She grabbed my wrist. “Don’t fight it. You can’t fight the inevitable.” Without a word, she pressed my hand into her trousers.

Review: Friction (Station 32 #2) by Jamie Magee




Having the wrong things in common with the right girl at the wrong time has always been a tragic issue for Easton Ballantine. At least it was when it came to Georgia Armstrong.

Georgia Armstrong’s nomadic life had left her worn and lacking the desire to attach to anyone or anything. She’d been burned and felt the coldness of loss and was content to drift at will until she found a reason to stay.

Broken roads and bad decisions, which led to right ones, were the demons in both their past—choices that would either draw them together, or rip them apart







My Opinion: 


4 broken stars. 

This is the second book in the Station 32 series. This book was a mix of anger and love and overall the results of making bad decision thinking thing would be better that way. That doesn’t mean the decisions couldn’t lead to something good.

I really liked the book.

Easton Ballantine is in sorrow. Feeling the pain of losing someone, that played a huge role in his life. And in that moment, Georgia was there for him. Feeling the same loss, but someone in that moment, Easton was more fragile. Georgia, somehow, managed to feel easier with Easton. Easton makes her pain go away, makes it fade, and they spent a good night beside the other giving Georgia hopes that everything would be okay.

And then Easton just crushed it to pieces.

“I tend to attract the broken.”
“I’m not broken,” Easton snapped in a hiss of words. 

This is where the book lost me a little. It was like a, “OMG I LOVED THAT” moment, and then there was the reminder that even when Easton had a rough life, but had good friend and family to move forward, he still had trust issues with Georgia. I understand why, I just think they both were so perfectly imperfect, that for me there was no reason of why he should feel like that, and more with Georgia’s actions. Yeah, she have some fear as well, this is risky and new to both of them!! And like people say, sometimes actions speak more than words.

And her brother was A.W.E.S.O.M.E

“Friction is good?”
“Makes fire,” he said with wink. 

However, I loved the fact that they weren’t perfect. A little messy. They were normal people, no totally alpha male I-do-everything-right (even when I loved them). But I like that they felt real, the struggle and the twist the story kept revealing were awesome. Totally unexpected, especially the end. And I think it was one of my favorite parts of the whole book!!

But after all, can they put their fears aside? Their feelings would make the move forward or backwards? Can they take a chance, and just enjoy the friction between them?

If you want to know, then you gotta read it. (:

Sneak Peek Excerpt 


​​


​​

I MEANT WHAT I said before.

I meant it with every bone in my body.

Someone has to die.

I still stood by that conclusion. Only, I’d hoped it wouldn’t be me.

Too bad wishes never come true.

I’d always wondered what it would feel like. How I would react, knowing that I’d failed. I’d lain awake so many nights trying to imagine how I would behave when my father finally had enough. I’d scared myself shitless fearing I wouldn’t be strong enough, brave enough, to face the consequences I’d lived with all my life.

But none of that mattered now. I’d done what I swore never to do and revealed myself. My father knew there was no changing me—he would come for me.

But so fucking what?

She’s safe.

That was all I needed to focus on.

I’d done my utmost to be the perfect son, but I’d been fighting an unwinnable battle. No matter how much I wished I could be like them—I wasn’t. And it was pointless to keep fighting.

Not anymore.  I’m done.

My Review:

5 broken stars. 

An ARC was kindly provided by TSOR in exchange of an honest review. (:

What

Was

This? 

​​

 Third Debt is the four book in the Indebted series… it’s the continuation of Jethro and Nila’s story… is the freaking insanity in my head. I can’t even start to tell how good is the book, because the words are just all over the place. Wow, Pepper. Just when you think something and there is no other possible way to make things work through all the love and pain, it happens, Third Debt is what happens. 

What a book. Since the star it was a huge rollercoaster, messing with your feelings. Sometimes you want to strangle the characters and the others just cheering “Yeah, that’s it”. The book is INTENSE and very POWERFULL. In my opinion you can’t compare this one to the three before. It is just so not fair. I loved everything about this one, like an addiction from which you can’t escape. Literally I read it in college while I was in class and people saw me gasping loudly because I just couldn’t stay quiet. I don’t even remember what the classes were about! lol


​​

So, from now if you haven’t read the three ones before, go read it before you read this!!! It maybe, would probably have some spoilers from them.
Every one of the past books ended in such cliffhangers, finally brought in this, and I finally understood why…

At the end of Second Debt Jethro and Nila were separated, by force, of course. And this book just enlightens all the emotions of their twisted relationship. How they are the complement for each other and without the other one the crisis starts developing slowly forming jut the exact amount of pressure and anxious.

Nila was forced to leave Jethro and go home with V (her brother). Finally “leaving” the darkness and surviving. Meanwhile Jehtro was drowning SWIDT<- ;), and there was nothing Nila could do about it. I thought that something in particular was going to happen and when they were in that moment it just BAM, a different twist happen and I didn’t even blink once. I was so surprise with what was happening. And then this goes on and on.


​​

In this book you can notice that Nila is the true heroine. She stands out no matter form what point you see it. The decision she makes, some people may call it stupid, and I would call them brave. I don’t think anyone would just do that. Exposing herself to every bit of… them. She is way more confident and she truly believes in what she does. When she has some encounters with Jethro, physically and mentally, she is prepared to fight –tough not with punches or something like that, not yet anyways-, but she doesn’t take sh*t from Jethro. And less form Cut or Daniel. 


​​
 Jeto was my rollercoaster. He was the one that drive me mad, and made me want to punch the near pillow I had –which was none since I was in a chair in my classroom-, and sometime I just wanted to be there for him and hug him like if he was my teddy bear –a very sexily scariest one. I understood why... <- not telling folks, you have to read to know it, but that doesn’t mean I approved it. Or that my mind wasn’t searching for different ways to make everything go away. But, of course, there was some point where Jethro existence swallows me into this dark and broken world. And I was like OMG! WHAT? I can't.... wait... WHAT?

And just outside from what Jethro/Nila story is. Kestrel was someone who I thought I would never like, having in mind that after all he still being part of the Hawks’s sick vengeance against the Weavers for their past sins, which they even didn’t know existed! I didn’t LOVED him completely, but his role had this powerful impact on me, that I just had to give him some credit, a LOT, for what he is and do. Even when he wasn’t the principal character I think he won a little piece of our hearts. And okay, I loved him a little. But then there was this Oh-my-god-I-can-not-believe-that-happened-just-right-there moment.

Cut and Daniel, god, do I have to talk about them? I just want them bleeding. Dead. Nothing less. Their minds are so dark and so sick, but at the same time they are the one who brings some action to the book, without their “things” the book would have gone plain, so it’s a bitter feeling.


​​
 THE END WAS THE X FACTOR. I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! Something was up. I can’t say anything about it because you simply HAVE to read it. Those little evil minds won’t be happy with anything slipping through their fingers. I just hope that karma really exists for them and she would come to bit them right on the ass. Although my theater history professor says: “People would show you happy endings, because that’s what people want to see, but it’s not what it really is. Life is ugly”.

So I can NOT wait until Fourth Debt, and if the rumors of being better that this is true, then I just don’t know what more could possibly happen.

Pepper Winters is the master genius in this. And she won’t let you come away without a messed up brain; in a twisted good way. So we can of need Four Debt sooner, right? Jaja Well, I think all the wait is worth it. It’s a book you totally have to read, and so far, one of the best I have read this year.It's a MUST READ. So go you grab yours!! You will not regret it.
