Mollypalooza Day 5

 
 
Welcome to Mollypalooza!! There will be something different every day to celebrate the release of Deceiving Lies and the awesomeness that is Molly McAdams. And without further ado, today's schedule...
 
 
 
 
Since everyone else let me question them all week, I figured it was only fair that I answer the questions myself.
 
How did you meet Molly? - I started following Molly on Facebook after Taking Chances started popping up everywhere. I hadn't read it yet. By following her, I kept seeing people post about TC and that it made readers ugly cry and all that. Made me a bit nervous about reading it, but one day it followed me home from Target and I finished it in one sitting. From then on, I was hooked on her books.
 
What's your favorite Molly book? - I love all of them, but if I was forced to pick it would be Forgiving Lies. There's just something about Kash and Rachel's story that I love.
 

What's your favorite thing about Molly? - There isn't any one thing. Molly is such a great person. Her posts never fail to cheer me up if I'm having a bad day. She doesn't blink an eye when I send her random out of the blue questions like what's your favorite color or when I proclaim that Kash is mine. LOL
 
Molly - Thank you for being you and for sharing your characters and their stories with us! I can't wait to see you and hug you again! <3
  
 
 
 
Today's featured fan is the fantastic Giulie!
 
 
 
Stephanie: Hi Giulie! Where are you from?
 
Giulie: Fresno, California
 
Stephanie: What's your favorite Molly McAdams book?
 
Giulie: Taking Chances
 
Stephanie: What is your favorite thing about Molly?
 
Giulie: I LOVE Her infectious  Smile and Personality!!! She Truly is one of a kind.   Molly has a way to make you feel important and special. Even if she getting all "Cali Bitchy" on you! I think that's why I get along will her so well because I'm from Cali!! I can't wait to meet her one day, I definitely will be **Muppet flailing**!!! LOL 
 
Stephanie: Thanks so much for joining us today and helping celebrate Molly!
 
 
Today's featured is Capturing Peace. This is Molly's upcoming novella featuring Coen Steele and Reagan Hudson. Molly's inspiration for Coen is Tyler Seielstad, who is one pretty awesome photographer. You can see his work by visiting his photography page on Facebook. Click here.


Coen Steele has spent the last five years serving his country. Now that he's back, he's finally ready to leave behind the chaos of the battlefield and pursue his lifelong dream. What he wasn't expecting was the feisty sister of one of his battle buddies—who has made it obvious that she wants nothing to do with him—to intrigue him in a way no woman has before.

Reagan Hudson's life changed in the blink of an eye six years ago when she found out she was pregnant and on her own. Since then, Reagan has vowed never to let another man into her life so that no one can walk out on her, or her son, again. But the more she runs into her brother's hot and mysterious friend, the more he sparks something in her that she promised herself she wouldn't feel again.
Can two people with everything to lose allow themselves to finally capture the love they both deserve?

Mollypalooza Day 4

 
 
Welcome to Mollypalooza!! There will be something different every day to celebrate the release of Deceiving Lies and the awesomeness that is Molly McAdams. Be sure to check back daily! And without further ado, today's schedule...
 
 


 
 
Today's special guest is none other than Molly's SEF, Amanda Stone!
 


Stephanie: Hi Amanda! How did you meet Molly?
 
Amanda: I met Molly after I read TAKING CHANCES. We began IMing on Facebook and found that we were scary alike and became insta best friends. #SheIsStillNotForgivenForChase

 

Stephanie: LOL I think a lot of people feel the same way about Chase. What is your favorite book of Molly's?
 
Amanda: Ah, favorite Molly book. That one's hard. I get to read things of hers before they come out and I just fished reading something she sent me the other day... but I can't talk about it. :/ I will say that it made me laugh out loud, took me by surprise and it carried such a strong message that I absolutely fell in love. But if I have to pick a favorite book that is out right now I think I will go with TAKING CHANCES. I mean, its the first book that I ever read that I absolutely did not see a certain scene coming. So she will always have MAJOR props in my book for that.
 
Stephanie: Now I'm curious. LOL One last question. What is your favorite thing about Molly?
 
Amanda: My favorite thing about Molly would obviously have to be her tiny T-Rex arms. ;)
 
Stephanie: Heehee! You're the second person to say that this week.
 
Amanda: Okay, okay. All humor aside... Molly McAdams is one of the kindest people you will ever meet. She has such a huge heart and really enjoys talking to, and getting to know, her readers. Believe me when I say she gets swamped with Facebook messages and notifications, but she always tries her best to respond to each person because they mean that much to her. She knows how to laugh at, and make fun of, herself. She cares for and loves the people closet to her with a fierceness that would rival a momma bear protecting her cubs. Molly is just an all around amazing person that I am so thankful to call my friend.
 
Stephanie: She really is pretty awesome! Thanks so much for stopping by Amanda! To find out more about Amanda you can check out her author page on Facebook by clicking here.

 
 
Today's featured fan is the fabulous Jeanine!
 
 
 
Stephanie: Hi Jeanine! Where are you from?
 
Jeanine: I live in Spring (suburb of Houston), originally from Philadelphia.
 
Stephanie: What's your favorite Molly McAdams book?
 
Jeanine: My favorite Molly book. ...that's hard, it's a tie. .Taking Chances and From Ashes are my faves but I love them all!
 
Stephanie: What is your favorite thing about Molly?
 
Jeanine: I love how personable Molly is.  I went to a singing and met her she recognized my name and gave me a big hug and chatted. She's so sweet!
 
Stephanie: Thanks so much for joining us today and helping celebrate Molly!
 
 
Today's featured books are Taking Chances and Stealing Harper. If you haven't read them, be prepared for laughter, tears, sobbing and shocking moments. But totally worth the read!


Her first year away is turning out to be nearly perfect, but one weekend of giving in to heated passion will change everything.
 
Eighteen-year-old Harper has grown up under the thumb of her career marine father. Ready to live life her own way and to experience things she's only ever heard of from the jarheads in her father's unit, she's on her way to college at San Diego State University.
 
Thanks to her new roommate, Harper is introduced to a world of parties, gorgeous guys, family, and emotions. She finds herself being torn in two as she quickly falls in love with both her new boyfriend, Brandon, and her roommate's brother, Chase. Despite their dangerous looks and histories, both men adore Harper and would do anything for her, including taking a step back if it would mean she'd be happy.
 
 
Chase Grayson has never been interested in having a relationship that lasts longer than it takes for him and his date to get dressed again. But then he stumbles into a gray-eyed girl whose innocence pours off her, and everything changes. From the minute Harper opens her mouth to let him know just how much he disgusts her, he's hooked.
 
But a princess deserves a Prince Charming who can make her dreams come true. Not a guy who can turn her life into a nightmare.
 
All good intentions go out the window when Harper starts to fall for the guy Chase has come to view as a brother. He wanted to protect her by keeping her away, but he can't stand to see her with anyone else, and he'll do anything to make her his. But when it comes down to Harper choosing between the two, will Chase have the strength to step back from the girl who has become his whole world if it means she's happy?
 
Lines will be crossed. Friendships will be put to the test. And hearts will be shattered.

Today's featured book is From Ashes. Cassidy and Gage's story is a rollercoaster of emotions that is absolutely wonderful. :)

Aside from her dad, who passed away when she was six, Cassidy Jameson has only ever trusted one man: her best friend, Tyler. So of course she follows him to Texas when he leaves for college. She just didn't expect to be so drawn to their new roommate, Gage, a gorgeous guy with a husky Southern drawl. The only problem? He's Tyler's cousin.

Gage Carson was excited to share an apartment off campus with his cousin. He didn't mind that Tyler was bringing the mysterious friend he'd heard about since they were kids . . . until the most beautiful girl he's ever seen jumps out of his cousin's Jeep. There's something about Cassi that makes Gage want to give her everything. Too bad Tyler has warned him that she's strictly off-limits.

Despite everything keeping them apart, Cassi and Gage dance dangerously close to the touch they've both been craving. But when disaster sends her running into Tyler's arms, Cassi will have to decide whether to face the demons of herpast . . . or to burn her chance at a future with Gage.

Today's featured books are Forgiving Lies and Deceiving Lies. Kash and Rachel's story is a MUST READ! My opinion anyways. :D 

The fabulous New York Times and USA Today bestselling New Adult author returns with a sizzling, funny, and deeply emotional tale of passion and secrets, deception and forgiveness.

A matter of secrets . . .

Undercover cop Logan "Kash" Ryan can't afford a distraction like his new neighbor Rachel Masters, even if she's the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. To catch a serial killer, he needs to stay focused, yet all he can think about is the feisty, long-legged coed whose guarded nature intrigues him.

A matter of lies . . .

Deceived and hurt before, Rachel would rather be a single, crazy cat lady than trust another guy, especially a gorgeous, tattooed bad boy with a Harley, like Kash. But when his liquid-steel eyes meet hers, it takes all of Rachel's willpower to stop herself from exploring his hot body with her own.

A matter of love . . .

As much as they try to keep it platonic, the friction between them sparks an irresistible heat that soon consumes them. Can Kash keep Rachel's heart and her life safe even as he risks his own? Will she be able to forgive his lies . . . or will she run when she discovers the dangerous truth?

 
 
 
The irresistible, blazing-hot sequel to New York Times bestselling author Molly McAdams's Forgiving Lies

Rachel is supposed to be planning her wedding to Kash, the love of her life. After the crazy year they've had, she's ready to settle down and live a completely normal life. Well, as normal as it can be. But there's something else waiting—something threatening to tear them apart.

Kash is ready for it all with Rachel, especially if "all" includes having a football team of babies with his future wife. In his line of work, Kash knows how short life can be and doesn't want to waste another minute of their life together. But now his past as an undercover narcotics agent has come back to haunt him . . . and it's the girl he loves who's caught in the middle.

Trent Cruz's orders are clear: take the girl. But there's something about this girl that has him changing the rules and playing a dangerous game to keep her safe. When his time as Rachel's protector runs out, Trent will turn his back on the only life he's known—and risk everything if it means getting her out alive.
