Cade's Loss by Selena Laurence



Today we have the fantastic release day blitz of CADE’S LOSS by Selena Laurence! 

Check it out and grab your copy today!





Cade Jenkins is a study in loss. At twenty-five he lost his parents, his dreams, and his career on the pro surfing circuit. He gained guardianship of his two younger brothers, responsibility for an entire ranch, and a life without love.

Nina Cline is on the mend. Her cheating fiance is in the rear view, and she's concentrating on her job as an organic certification consultant. Now that she's gained her independence, Nina will never make the mistake of giving it away again. Especially to some anonymous hookup she meets at a beachside bar...no matter how good he looks in the water. Then she meets her newest Big Sur client and realizes that the beach bum that curled her toes is her new boss—and he thinks “organic” is a dirty word. 

As tensions, tempers, and chemistry reach a boiling point at the ranch, these two heartbroken souls will need to decide if they’re willing to take a chance again, or let the love of a lifetime slip away with the tide.







There was nothing that soothed Cade’s battered soul more than the ocean. He’d been that way as long as he could remember, spending every available moment at the beach, in the water, following his dad from wave to wave until he’d been better on a board than the old man. As he looked at the water now, he could almost see the outline of his dad’s form, riding the long tail of a wave midway out, sun on his hair that was the exact color of Cade’s, water spraying on his tan skin, weathered from the years of being outdoors. The familiar ache that was his companion so much of the last six years caught him like a hoof to the gut, and he swallowed, tasting the lime and tequila in the back of his throat as he blinked the painful image away.

And that was when he saw her. She was leaning on the glass wall that ran along the edge of the deck, her blonde curls blowing in the light breeze that came off the water. She had on a sundress, white cotton, like a little girl’s, but it was backless, tiny straps running over her slim shoulders, and with the sun shining through it, the long skirt was nearly transparent. He could see enough to know that she was wearing thong underwear or none at all, and that her legs were long and lean, curved in all the right places.

Before he could think about it, he’d snatched the other two shots off the bar and was walking toward her, drawn like a moth to a flame, ready to incinerate himself for only a moment of warmth. As he drew closer, he saw another man approaching from across the deck. He gave the guy a hard look, and the dude stepped off, hands up to communicate “no harm no foul.” Cade slid into position to her right and set the shots down on the railing.

“Tequila?” he asked, turning to look at her profile. She had high cheekbones, and her skin was dark for a blonde, a beautiful golden shade that made her look like she’d walked off the pages of a swimsuit magazine. Her nose was straight and small, turning up ever so slightly on the end, but her lips were full, covered in some sort of peach shiny stuff that Cade thought might taste quite good if he could lick it off her.

She turned to look at him when he spoke to her, and the breath was knocked clean out of him. Instead of the standard blue eyes that he’d expect from a blonde, hers were amber, almost glowing under the frame of thick black lashes. She blinked up at him, and Cade’s sore heart gave a jolt that nearly had him gasping.

Jessica Hampton is the heir to a political dynasty. For nearly ten years she has given up everything in order to fulfill her late husband's legacy.

His father has controlled his fortune, his career, and now possibly his life. Because when the Egyptian parliament instructs Kamal to negotiate an accord that threatens his father's illegal business dealings, all hell is about to break loose, and Kamal will be forced to choose between the American President he might love, the nation he's sworn to serve, and the father who's given him everything.

MrsNorthman's Review

3.5 - Pax is so sweet - stars!

It's pretty clear that Pax is just like his daddy, Walsh (swoon), a total stand-up guy. Pax made the ultimate sacrifice. He left behind his family and most of his friends to pursue a music career on his own. But Carly changed everything for him. He has no choice but to ask his dad for help, so that he can save this girl he shares a crazy connection with. 

I'm enjoying this serial so far. They've both been cute, quick reads that left me wanting more. I think it will be interesting to see how Carly reacts when she finds out who Pax really is. 

"I want to be the one. I want her to know that a guy like me can make her problems go away." 

3.5/5 Fangs

 From Selena Laurence
This six part serial is a Romantic Suspense on the sweet side written at the request of my sixteen-year-old daughter, who can't read my typical super steamy romances. It's a spin-off from my very popular Lush rock star series, and follows the adventures of Walsh Clark's son Pax as he tries to navigate a new life and maybe a new love, in Bittersweet, Alabama. I hope you have as much fun reading it as I did writing it!

MrsNorthman's Review
Pax Clark is trying to forge his own path in the world.  He left behind his rock god family two years ago to pursue his musical aspirations.  He landed in a small beach town in Alabama and spends his time writing songs and playing the local clubs. Music is his passion, it's in his bones, but he's determined to make it on his own.  Not because his father is the famed Lush drummer, Walsh Clark.  

He's focused and doesn't have time for a serious relationship, but he's not a douchebag about it.  He comes across as a stand-up guy.  One that can't resist saving a girl in distress.  It's a tangled web that Carly finds herself in, but one Pax wants to help her out of.  She might just change all of his plans. 

"Sometimes you've got to leave your family to realize just how much they mean to you, and some things in life you have to do on your own."

While I love all the guys of Lush, Walsh and Tammy's story is my favorite. So, I was super excited when I found out little Pax was going to have his own serial.  Pax is sweet, protective and I admire his resolve to make his own way in the world.  In true Selena Laurence fashion, she has made me fall for another guy in the Lush family. While there where warnings this was tamed down compared to her other books (she wanted to write something her teenage daughter could read - so sweet), I didn't find it lacking in steam or excitement.  After that cliffhanger, I'm dying to see what's next for Pax and Carly.

4.5/5 Fangs
