Check out this awesome trailer for my debut novel, REVIVAL. Thanks to Nicole Angela for making it for me. I'm speechless. It's perfect for Jacade and Ivy.
Look for this scene in the vid:
I carefully turn the knob and peek in. His hands are on the wall of the shower, his head leaning on his forearms. I instantly recognize the intimate and introspective ballad playing from his phone. "Heal" by Tom Odell. The water runs down his back, over his firm ass, and down into the tub. For a moment, I just take him in. Purple bruises are appearing on his torso. He has those bruises because of what Viktor said to him in the cage about me. He completely lost it. Why would a man who barely knows me defend me so violently? I tiptoe into the bathroom and peel off my clothes, dropping them on the floor. I step up close to his side. He tilts his head to the side when he feels me next to him but puts his forehead back down. I climb behind him and am hypnotized by the eyes of the panther on his back. Omniscient eyes that own secrets begging to be revealed. I float my index finger around the head of the panther. One of the orange bursts of the panther's tongue is reddened as if it was recently tattooed. I glide my finger over the flame and he cringes at my touch. Wrapping my arms around him from behind, I lay my cheek on his solid back. I realize this is the real Jacade. The man who is strong and fierce, but vulnerable and damaged. Confident and dominating, but generous and kind. He takes one of my hands and interlaces our fingers across his chest. He presses my hand to his heart with every vibrating beat of the music. We hold each other for a long time, listening to the ethereal notes floating through the air.
This beautiful song is "Heal" by Tom Odell
Here's a video of it featured in the movie If I Stay
If you haven't read REVIVAL yet, what are you waiting for?
Wow, what a refreshing read! Finally a sexy female character I can actually identify with ( size 12) :). It was relatable, passionate, funny, seductive, intriguing, suspenseful and oh so hot! I was hooked immediately, read the entire book in a day and half. Oh an Jacade, well he's just one the sexiest alpha males you will ever read about. Finally a male that is attracted to a women with curves. Yummy yum...muscles and tattoos. MKG really knows to how to leave a reader wanting (more like panting) more, lots more! She is one of my favorite new authors. I am so excited that Volume 2 should be coming out soon. I encourage everyone to read this book, it will not disappoint!!!
I loved this book. Did not want to put it down. I can't wait for the next book to come out. This is a story worth waiting for. I got so lost in the story that when I got to the end I just sat there... I'm glad to have met M.K. Gilher on facebook and become her friend. She introduced me to her book and I love her for it.. <3 <3
I had no clue what I was getting into when I began reading but by the end I was addicted to this story. I will warn you that it does leave you in a pretty intense cliff hanger, one that made me want to scream and beg for this not to end here. The writing style is smooth and descriptive, with great character development, making the reader feel they are right there in the story experiencing every emotion that flows throughout the book.
Ivy has no idea who her parents are; she was just very thankful that Bernie and Helen took her in and raised her to become the woman she is today. Going back to work after a few months off, she is dealing with scar on her body that we still don’t know much about, a failed engagement to a man that was up to no good, and still dealing with body image issues from her time before she lost a lot of weight. She is now working for her Uncle in his plastic surgery office and will come face to face with Dr. Jordan, a man who will turn her world upside down and expose her to more than lust and love; he will be saving her from the dark world of gangs.
Dr. Jacade Jordan is one of the sexiest alpha men I have read about in a long while. While control is on his priority list, I love how he knows what Ivy needs before she even does and his love and desire for her goes back years before she even knew he was alive. He has a dark past, secrets he is keeping from Ivy that we will more than likely find out as the series goes on. One thing for you can count on is he is a walking, talking sex God who is protective of those he loves and goes after whatever he wants.
This story is laced with suspense, passion, thrill and humor. Ivy is a strong woman who says what she thinks even when the timing isn’t right. She goes through life with her devil and angel on her shoulders named Slut Ivy, who tends to lead her into situations that leave her breathless and in trouble and Feminist Ivy who fights hard to keep Ivy independent, virtuous and on the right path. Needless to say Feminist Ivy rarely wins the debate when Dr. Jordan is involved.
There are a lot of secrets in this story that we haven’t uncovered and the history of Ivy’s uncle will play a huge part in the future. I was sucked into this story from the elevator scene at the beginning till the very end where I was left screaming for more. The twists and turns the author has created in this plot are amazing and leave you thinking you can predict what is going to happen but more than likely you find you were totally wrong. It is an edge of the seat, change the panties often kind of story with two characters you can’t help but fall in love with. I have become a huge fan of this author and can hardly wait to read the rest of this series.
Oh Doctor... tourniquets have a new meaning..., February 8, 2015
I loved this book. Did not want to put it down. Ivy has had a hard life and it just keeps getting harder. Jacade is a plastic surgeon who has secrets he does not want Ivy to know. I got so lost in the story that when I got to the end I just sat there. Like a really good movie you don't want to get up yet. I recommend this story to all readers who love an edgy story with real feelings. Oh, and HOT sex. :)
Dr. Jacade Jordan: The steamy bad boy plastic surgeon., February 2, 2015
I have had this book on my to read list for a while and I just finished reading it. I don't know what took me so long to read this book!! It was amazing, from beginning to end. I was pulled in from the beginning. You will fall in love with Dr. Jordan and his smooth ways. And, Ivy will keep you on your toes with her smart mouth. I love that this is a dual POV book. You know what each is thinking, when and all of the things that are going on in their heads. There is a lot of humor in throughout the book that will keep you turning the pages. These two have so much chemistry it seems to ooze off the page.
Dr. Jordan is the bad boy from the wrong side of the town, but has become a successful doctor along with Ivy's Uncle Bernie and Aunt Helen. He know's what he wants and he wants Ivy. He has known that he has wanted her for the last three years since that fateful day. Ivy has her own life with her own friends. She also has a history that starts to unfold throughout the book.
M.K. has a lot of personality in this book and there is never a dull moment. I can't wait for the next book to come out. Don't miss this book!!
