InkSlinger PR Review + Excerpt + Giveaway: Bedmates by Nichole Chase


We are thrilled to get to bring to you the Release Day Launch for New York Times Bestselling Author Nichole Chase’s BEDMATES, the first standalone novel in her new American Royalty Series! Be sure to grab your copy of BEDMATES today!




From the New York Times bestselling author of Suddenly Royal comes the first in a sparkling new series about America’s favorite royal—the First Daughter.

Everyone makes mistakes, especially in college. But when you’re the daughter of the President of the United States, any little slip up is a huge embarrassment. Maddie McGuire’s latest error in judgment lands her in police custody, giving the press a field day. Agreeing to do community service as penance and to restore her tattered reputation, Maddie never dreams incredibly good looking but extremely annoying vice president’s son, Jake Simmon, will be along for the ride.

Recently returning from Afghanistan with a life-altering injury, Jake is wrestling with his own demons. He doesn’t have the time or patience to deal with the likes of Maddie. They’re like oil and water and every time they’re together, it’s combustible. But there’s a thin line between love and hate, and it’s not long before their fiery arguments give way to infinitely sexier encounters.

When Jake receives devastating news about the last remaining member of his unit, the darkness he’s resisted for so long begins to overwhelm him. Scared to let anyone close, he pushes Maddie away. But she isn’t about to give up on Jake that easily. Maddie’s fallen for him, and she’ll do anything to keep him from the edge as they both discover that love is a battlefield and there are some fights you just can’t lose.

My Thoughts:
Loved Bedmates. I couldn't put it down. Nichole did a fantastic job with this story. I mean you have Maddie who is the First Daughter, but she's unique. She's kind of wild, but not like the Bush twins. She's passionate with her beliefs, and kind of goes about it the wrong way. Of course this leads her in to hot water and has to work with the Golden Boy. Jake is the Vice President's son. He's practically perfect, hence being dubbed Golden Boy. However, he comes back from war a changed man. His gold is a little tarnish due to life. Now his mother needs him to work on a project that will help her campaign to gain the nomination to run for President. Perfect read for this time of year. Sparks fire between Jake and Maddie since both believe that each one hates one another. Funny thing about enemy stories they seem to be the best when it comes to romance. 

I couldn't put this story down. There is so much that goes on in this story and Nichole does an amazing job with the two characters story. There is drama, but makes you feel for these two characters. Plus, Jake comes with a lot of baggage and it's not just the war; gotta love mommy dearest. To watch these two overcome challenges like the spotlight and baggage is impressive. Well done. 

I'm not big into politics, but Bedmates does touch on some social issues that we should look into more, at the same time gives a romance with frenemies turned lovers. So, if this sounds like your kind of read, you won't be disappointed in Bedmates. I can't wait to see what happens in the rest of the series.

EXCERPT:
The hand on the back of my neck tilted my head so he could kiss me better and I melted against him. I’d waited for this moment most of my life and I sure as hell wasn’t disappointed.

The kiss wasn’t rushed, wasn’t abrupt. It was slow, lingering brushes of lips, as our breaths slid over each other. It was an intense, raw moment as we tested unknown waters and what we found only increased our determination. When his tongue swiped across my bottom lip in a request for entrance I opened on a sigh. His free hand caressed my hip before sliding around to the small of my back, tucking me against him.

The feel of his hard body pressed against me made my head spin. Every delectable inch of him was hard in just the right way. As his mouth danced over mine, fire ran through my veins. Everywhere that he touched me came alive and I wrapped my arms around his neck, hungry to feel more of him pressed to me. This was what I’d been looking for all these years. I felt alive and appreciated with each stroke of his tongue and touch of his hands.

His arm tightened around my waist and my feet left the ground. I gasped as he sat me on the unfinished kitchen island. Dark brown eyes drilled into mine as his hands slid down to cup my ass before gently spreading my legs so that he could fit between them. He pressed against my center and I couldn’t help but groan as he pulled me tight. Wrapping my legs around his hips I pushed even closer, trying to relieve the building ache.

He groaned into my mouth and I took the moment to nip his bottom lip. I’d wanted to do that forever; to feel it plump between my teeth. One of his hands squeezed my ass tighter and he grinded his erection into me, causing my head to fall backward on a gasp of pleasure. Each move against me made me gasp louder, and my eyes fell shut. With one hand he pulled my hair free from the rubber band before tangling his fingers in it.

“God, you taste good.” His voice was raw, harsh, and it sent shivers down my spine. He ran his nose along the column of my throat before nipping gently below my ear. “Should have done this forever ago.”
