Book Boyfriend Battle Royale BRACKET CHALLENGE!

Hey Everyone! This coming May will be our FIRST BLOGOVERSARY! In celebration of our first year in the book blog world we are going to host a BOOK BOYFRIEND BATTLE ROYALE! There’ s nothing like watching a bunch of HOT & SWOONY BOYS duke it out. We’re also going to be holding a BRACKET CHALLENGE (details below) for the readers as well! Up until a few days ago we had over 300 book boyfriends! With the help of other book boyfriend fans, we were able to narrow down the list of Book Boyfriends to just 64 through a Preliminary Round (see results here.) Now that we have our 64 Boys, it’s time for the fun stuff! Has anyone here even been a part of a NCAA College Basketball March Madness Bracket Challenge? You know, where you fill out a bracket, pick & choose College Basketball Teams hoping that you’ll choose correctly to win the pot at the end of the challenge? Yes? No? You are essentially predicting the outcome of the tournament when filling out a bracket. The Tournament (or Book Boyfriend Battle Royale in this case) does not start until MAY 1ST, 2014. You have up until 11:59pm on 4/30/14 to make your predictions as to who is going to win each poll in the BBBR. That’s what we are doing here. For each correct guess you will receive points. I believe the first round will be 1 point for each correct guess, the second round you get 5 points for each correct guess. […]

While there, Patrick meets Elaine, and blistering sparks fly, but she’s not looking for any guy. Or a long-distance relationship. Patrick’s ready to do anything to keep her, but just when it seems he’s changed her mind, the skeletons from his past life start coming back. Excerpt: Suppressing a grin, I cupped her cheeks again and covered her mouth with mine. Her lips parted, and our tongues met. I felt her relaxing, and in that moment, the questions in my head were answered and the answers satisfied me deeply. She was mine. No matter what came next. With a calm confidence, I knew I’ d never let her go again. My mouth moved to her cheek. “Nobody’ s getting over anybody here. So why torture us both?” Her body shook with her small laugh. “Aren’ t you […]

Synopsis: Previously homeschooled Camie Ramsey is being shoved into the shark-infested waters of public high school, where even helium filled, penguin bespeckled arm floaties likely won’ t help keep her inexperienced, fifteen-year old head above water in that rip current of hormones and emotions. Camie’ s worldly wisdom might be severely lacking (i.e., the closest she’ s come to being kissed was sitting too close to the TV whilst Jake Ryan leaned in to give Samantha that fateful 16th birthday kiss), but she does understand her only hope for survival is if she’ s thrown some kind of “social” life preserver before she sinks like a freaking rock. However, what will her fate be when she endeavors […]

AUTHOR’ S FAVORITE QUOTES from LIAR, LIAR HEARTS ON FIRE by Jennifer Zane Violet (a first-grade teacher) is questioning Goldie about who would read the Erotic Romance book she’s written. Goldie says: “Young lady, are you forgetting where you are?” I looked around the adult store filled with blow-up dolls, slutty lingerie, toys, videos, gag gifts. “Right. My view of the world is shifting from the ABC’s to XXX.” Jennifer: Violet and Goldie. I like this quote because Violet realizes her world view has been a little skewed because of her job and her single-ness. ___ My dating experience might have been sporadic—the seasonal […]

Who is she kidding? That’s a no-brainer…but she never planned on falling head over heels for the lead singer. EXCERPT: Swallowing my heart back down into my throat, I take a tentative step into his darkly lit bedroom. Posters of Harleys and European cities are plastered on his walls. Somewhere downstairs, Roman Holiday’ s “Crush On You” echoes through the entire house in a sick sort of sadistic irony. My ankles wobble, but I keep my cool, trying to slip out of my Converses on the way to his bed. “I even have mood lighting,” he adds, thumbing back to the flickering electric candles on his headboard. “They’ re…nice…” I get one shoe off halfway to the bed, and dig my toe into the back of my other shoe right when I hit a silky pair […]
