Release Blitz and Reviews by Jackie & Marina: You've Got Fail by Celia Aaron

Title: You've Got Fail
Author: Celia Aaron
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: December 26, 2017
I single-handedly built the hottest website for dating and relationship advice. Got a question? Scarlet Rocket can answer it for you. I was your modern day agony aunt with the solutions to all your pesky personal problems. The only issue? I was actually a man named Willis Halloran, not the female Scarlet Rocket. I thought my secret was safe. But then a sexy con artist calling herself Scarlet Rocket began showing up at society events, pretending to be me. I couldn’t let it go, so I tracked her down and confronted her. It went well … except for the part where she stole my wallet. Oh, and the part where she conned my agent into having us work together. And after that? Let’s just say she wound up stealing something much more valuable than my wallet or my [fake] name.




I have only read a couple of books by this author and I really don’t know why that is, I need to check her other books out because if You’ve Got Fail is anything to go by I believe I will love all of her work. This book had me laughing or should I say snorting out loud, it’s hilarious, witty with some great banter going on between the characters, who by the way are hot and lovable.
Willis Halloran is a nerdy blogger who spends most of his time working from home in his pjs under the name of Scarlet Rocket, his blog gives advice on relationships and sex, he is the ultimate agony aunt except he is a man, his real problems start when a woman shows up steals his wallet, his business and even his name, Scarlet Rocket may be a imposter and a thief but Willis needs her to become him for a few engagements and he will be by her side guiding her through. An agreement for three events but what happens when Willis ends up having his heart stolen, will Scarlet ever admit that she has feelings for the hot nerdy blogger. Guess you should one click to get the whole story.
If you love rom-com’s this will be a must read, the characters are funny and easy to love, the banter flows, it’s hot and has the perfect mix of humour and romance. I really hope Celia Aaron gives us a second book featuring some of the secondary characters because I think everyone of this group has a story to tell. Great read.




This was a rather quirky, funny and entertaining story!
My first read of this author and I really enjoyed it!
The characters were rather silly at times but really rather entertaining! 
When someone impersonates your online blog personality you must do something to get them to stop what they are doing to you!!! Willis is beside himself and when he confronts the so called impersonator, needless to say nothing goes ahead as planned! Will the fact that his boss wants Scarlet to keep going as her namesake or is it a really bad idea? 
So much eventuates from Willis and fake Scarlett meeting! There are some rather interesting and steamy moments in this story plus some outrageous parts too!!
A great entertaining read!

Blog Tour: Christmas Candy by Celia Aaron

 



goodreads-badge.png






AP new - synopsis.jpg

A Christmas novella where everyone gets their just desserts.
Olive had a major crush on Hank in high school. She was the too-smart, slightly chubby girl who gawked as Hank ran track and made all the cheerleaders swoon. After high school, the two went their separate ways. Olive opened a yoga studio and swore off sweets while Hank traveled the world. No problem, right? At least there wasn’t a problem until Hank moved back to town and opened a candy shop across the street from Olive’s studio. Now, Olive will do everything she can to shut her old crush down. But Hank has other plans, and all of them end with an Olive sundae.

Author’s Note: This is a sweet Christmas treat that will leave you satisfied, yet desperate for a little taste of sugar.












   “So, what’s your poison?” He turns and places the boxes on the counter between us.

  “Just whatever you have is fine.” I try not to look at the swirling lollypops, jars of jellybeans, or rows of frosted cookies. The caramel candy apples with chocolate drizzle almost catch my eye, but I look away before I become ensnared.

    He sidesteps to the candy apple display. “Try one.”

   “No.” I keep my tone level. “Just pack up whatever you want to donate, and I’ll be on my way.”

   He smiles, and butterflies go to war in my stomach. Lightly tanned skin, bright eyes, and dark hair are still my weakness, almost as much as the mouth-watering candy apple he picks up and holds out to me. “Give it a try.
    I just put these out this afternoon. The apples are tart, and I made the caramel myself.”

I glance at the proffered treat. My sweet tooth demands that I take it, but my will is far stronger. “No, thank you.”

   His smile grows, as if he already knew I’d decline. Then he raises the apple to his mouth and takes a bite. The perfectly ripe apple makes a delectably crisp crunch between his teeth. I watch as he licks the stray caramel from his lips, and I wonder just how sweet he’d taste.

   “What was that?” He takes another bite.

   “Hmm?” Lord help me, but I stare. Watch his Adam’s apple bob and follow the movement down into his flannel shirt right where the tan skin disappears behind the fabric.

   He grabs a small plate and sets the rest of the apple down. “You just made a noise is all. Like a high-pitched sigh.”
   My face burns bright red. A sigh? I made a noise? “No. I don’t think so.”

   “Yeah, you did.” He grins. “Almost as if you’d enjoyed that as much as I did.”









I love Christmas and I love Christmas books and this novella was a great read.

This is Hank and Olivia's story it's about second chance romance, its a quirky fun read. Olivia was the chubby girl in school and Hank was the star of the track now they both grown up and how things have changed, Olivia now runs her own yoga studio and Hank is back in town and he now makes amazing sweets. 
Will the high school crush turn into true love .....
Perfect holiday season read.




My favourite holiday of the year is Christmas, a time for family and friends to get together and celebrate. Although this did not take too long to read it was fun, quirky and a light hearted read and one I thoroughly enjoyed.
Whilst at high school Oliva had a major crush on Hank; she was the chubby clever girl that gazed adoringly at track star Hank.  Fast forward a few years and a slimmed and trim Olive is now a yoga instructor. When Hank returns to their home town after travelling the world, he decides to open a candy shop across the road from Olive’s yoga studio.
There ensures the real challenge. Olive is determined to avoid Hank and his candy and Hank is just as determined to get and keep Olive’s attention. Olivia has no idea that while she was crushing on Hank, he was in fact doing the same thing whilst in school.
Who will win? The secondary character of Candace, Olive’s best friend was great and I would love to know more about her.  
I really liked these characters and although Celia Aaron is a new author to me and I was impressed with her writing style. I will certainly be looking into her other books.

“Can you call that number again, dear?” Mrs. Carmichael adjusts her enormous bifocals. “I couldn’t hear it over my cats. They meow something terrible when they’re hungry.”
I glance around at the cat-free common room. “Sure. I-14.”

“Thank you.” She stares at her upside down bingo card.
“I wanted to ask you something last night, but I couldn’t quite work up the nerve.” His fingers linger against mine again as he hands me the next ball.
“What?” My voice comes out breathy as I call out the number. We should have had a bingo by now, but I’ve learned everything takes a little longer at the senior center.
He leans over, his warm breath tickling my ear. “I was wondering what your favorite candy is.”
Goosebumps break out along my neck and arms as I snatch the ball from his hands and announce the next number.
“I don’t like candy.” I glance at him. He’s watching me, eating me up with his eyes. Problem is, I can’t say the sensation is unpleasant. Quite the opposite.
“Come on. Everyone likes candy.”
“I don’t.” His nearness is throwing me off, and I stutter out the next number.
“You sure? I saw the way you looked at my candy apple.”
I huff out a breath. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
He moves closer, our arms touching. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone.” His conciliatory whisper has my heart stutter-stepping. “You look beautiful, by the way.”
I can’t focus on the numbers, not when he’s winding me up like a clock. It doesn’t help that this is the most distracted I’ve been over a man since … Since senior year when I stared at him running track instead of doing my homework. I’ve fallen into the same hole with the same guy, and I can’t seem to get myself free.
“Candy apples.” I keep my voice low.
“What?” God, his voice in my ear sends shivers shooting down my spine.
“I like candy apples the best.”
“I’d like to see you eat one of my candy apples. Extra caramel for you.” He hands me the next ball, his index finger skating along mine. “Something sweet on your tongue.”
My body goes up in flames as our eyes meet, and I call out, “O-69.”
