  We are so pleased to bring you the Release Day Launch for Jennifer L. Armentrout's STAY WITH ME! STAY WITH ME is a New Adult contemporary romance being published by Avon (William Morrow), an imprint of HarperCollins, and is a part of Jennifer’s With You Saga!     Amazon ** Barnes and Noble ** iTunes ** Kobo ** GooglePlay   EXCERPT:    As I lay there, trying to swallow a loud, obnoxious yawn, I remembered something he’d said when we first met, about life being too short. I imagined he had firsthand experience with shortened lives while he was serving. That mentality came from experience. I got that now. Could even understand it, but there was something I didn’t understand. “Why?” I asked. There was a beat. “Why what?” Jax sounded tired, and I should shut up or point out that I was now tired and could sleep, so he could leave. But I didn’t. “Why are you here? You don’t know me and . . .” I trailed off, because there really wasn...

Who doesnt love a good villain? In my opinion, the villains are usually who make the story more interesting, they bring action and surprises and they make the heroes look good. In my many years of reading there were many bad guys I encountered in books but some stayed with me. There are those who started the series as antagonistic characters who ended up being the main characters HEA. Those who redeem themselves throughout the book or those who were simply misunderstood or just didnt know better. But some are simply pure evil, on a path of destruction and blood, a force that our favorite heroes and heroines fight to survive or to make the world a better place. Villains often dont know they are in the wrong, in their minds they are fighting for what they believe in, to them the end justifies the means and to "bad guys" what they are doing is not wrong. Sometimes, villains in books just want to play God, with no visible motivation, they simply love being the big bad ...
