Steph Nuss was born and raised in rural Kansas, where she currently resides with her black Labrador son named Gunner. She grew up with a passion for reading and writing. When she’s not immersed into the land of fiction, she enjoys listening to music that came before her time, watching movies and reruns of her favorite shows, and hanging out with her family and friends. She also has a bachelor’s degree in psychology that she’ll never use…unless she’s profiling her characters of course.


WANTED BY YOU (BOOK#1)

Amazon / B&N /iBooks / KoboGoodreads

Carter was captivated by Ellyson Evans the moment he laid eyes on her, but she was the one girl who didn't beg for his attention.

He wanted her.

Ellyson vowed to never fall in love, because love can destroy you, but then she met Carter Jennings.

She wanted him.

Unwilling to risk their comfortable friendship, neither confessed their desires.

Losing touch after college, a chance meeting reconnects them.

They want each other.
But love in the city is never quite that easy.

I totally fell in love with Carter Jennings the moment I read him in the 1st Chapter! And then I fell in love with Carter over and over and over again throughout the entire book!

8.......26..........200.............. <<<<<------- Once you read this it will make sense.


WOW! Loved loved loved this book!! Steph Nuss totally has a style of writing that while reading makes you feel like you are right there with her characters. I especially loved that this story was set in my hometown of NYC! I totally pictured every area of where Elly & Carter where in New York!

We start off with how Elly & Carter met in college. Carter is totally smitten with Elly & the two become best of friends right away! Their sexual tension they have in their inner monologues of what they are feeling but not saying to one another had me cracking up & sometimes yelling at them to just go ahead and make it happen!

You want to know what happens? You have to read to find out if it ever happens or not!

Steph Nuss introduces us to Elly & Carters friends who will make appearances into the other books in this series that will come out. They are hilarious bunch! Totally reminded me of FRIENDS, SEX & THE CITY & GOSSIP GIRL all rolled into one.


Fletcher: Damn! I want a Fletcher! He just is all sorts of scrumptious. I have my suspicions on what I want to happen with his character but I will patiently wait to see how Ms. Nuss plays it out. (Please let him be with......) I won't spoil it!

There are tons of movie and T.V. references in this book which make it fun to read. I totally had moments thinking and of course saying out loud "OMG yes like totally!" And the food references too had me LOL and realizing I ate a lot of the same stuff in college too! JUNK FOOD rules!

This book just totally had me. It reminded me of back in my college days, you meet so many interesting people, then there was always that one person that gets away from you and you get a second chance in the present to find them again.

Elly & Carter's story is just that. Second chances can happen when you least except it and you can have a chance to finally stop thinking "WHAT IF?" and just go for it! They do encounter some hard obstacles that test how much they are willing to fight for each other. It is never easy and Do they work it out? Again, you have to read this story to find out.

I highly recommend reading this book and making sure to follow everything STEPH NUSS!

I'm totally excited to read what happens next in this Series & get more adventures of all these wonderful characters Steph has
created!

Wohoo!!! I love Steph Nuss! Yes she is my friend but also she knows how to write stories that totally make you happy & want to find your one and only!


Where to begin......

1st: I read this book in less than one day! Devoured it when I was suppose to be working but I will tell you totally worth getting in trouble for! Be warned: You will become addicted to this series. 

We start off where "Wanted by You" left off which is Carter & Elly planning their wedding.

***HIGHLY SUGGEST: You need to read Book#1 1st before reading this to better understand where the characters are at.***

Sooooo.... we get to finally get to know Maverick and Harper's connection in this series.

WOW!!! I totally fell hard for Maverick! I want my own Maverick. Like seriously where is he because if I find him, I'm totally kidnapping him.
"Chocolate or Vanilla?" I eyed him suspiciously. "Are we talking dessert flavors or sex?

He laughed. "Both" 

Chocolate will never look the same! Damn Steph, you ruined me of course in a very good way.



Harper, she is Carter's sister who is a hard working fashion designer approaching being 30 years old and still has not her prince charming. She has a past that was difficult that kept her from meeting that prince and once she meets Maverick, things totally change.

Maverick is a total romantic, caring, sexy, humorous & everything Harper wants in a man. He is also a total ALPHA male. He does things his way and likes to take control & Harper likes it.

When Maverick and Harper 1st meet, it doesn't start off well but soon enough, they get to know each other and things totally take a turn.

Steph Nuss's funny and sarcastic humor in her writing easily made this story entertaining. Loved all the movie, music & TV references in the book. Had me laughing out loud & saying to myself "YES! I totally can relate!" 

The chemistry between Maverick and Harper heats up. Like totally gets sexy! Maverick just knows how to give it to Harper! Their love for one another starts off slow & grows into such a sweet & lovable relationship. Again, I want a Maverick!!! Where is he here in NYC? 

But I gave him me -- all of me -- because, for the first time in my life, I no longer had to dream about the future. It was right here in front of me. -Harper

About INSPIRE: Kalliope lives with one purpose. To inspire. As an immortal muse, she doesn’t have any other choice. It’s part of how she was made. Musicians, artists, actors—they use her to advance their art, and she uses them to survive. She moves from one artist to the next, never staying long enough to get attached. But all she wants is a different life— a normal one. She’s spent thousands of years living lie after lie, and now she’s ready for something real. Sweet, sexy, and steady, Wilder Bell feels more real than anything else in her long existence. And most importantly… he’s not an artist. He doesn’t want her for her ability. But she can’t turn off the way she influences people, not even to save a man she might love. Because in small doses, she can help make something beautiful, but her ability has just as much capacity to destroy as it does to create. The longer she stays, the more obsessed Wilder will become. It’s happened before, and it never turns out well for the mortal. Her presence may inspire genius. But it breeds madness, too.
Inspire Teaser 3

  Excerpt: I can feel Wilder’s breath against my lips. More than that, I can see it. The sun has set and the temperature has dropped, and air fogs between us. There’s something about actually seeing it, like our lips are touching, we are touching, despite the distance between. And as we sway from side to side, my heart gradually begins to pick up speed. The strains of guitar music flowing out from the restaurant are nearly indecipherable over the heavy heartbeat in my ears. But Wilder must hear it. His hands are strong on my body, guiding my movements, and I’m practically clay in his palms. We dance, eyes on eyes, lips nearly on lips, and there is lightning beneath my skin each time his body brushes against mine in a new way. His touch is firm, but gentle, never pushing or pressuring, though I can tell from the dark look in his eyes that he’s just as affected as I am. The music shifts, building to a crescendo, and he spins us. My chest pushes tight against his, and I bite back a gasp. I don’t know if it’s the cold or him or some combination of both, but the tips of my breasts are painfully tight. Just the pressure of my bra is enough to rub them raw. I remember the night at his apartment, the way he’d taken his time learning my body. I think of the heat of his mouth on my skin, and the memory alone is enough to make me shiver and clench. He’s back to being business, grown-up Wilder tonight in his button down and glasses. Only now that I know him, it doesn’t seem like such a stark difference. He is neither the straight-laced man nor the tattooed bad boy. Or perhaps he’s both. Regardless of what he’s wearing, Wilder is caring and loyal and strong and so sexy that I’m having trouble remembering why I shouldn’t push him into the backseat of his SUV and crawl on top of him.

Wicked
 

Amazon ** Barnes and Noble ** iBooks ** Kobo

  WICKED Synopsis: 

 Things are about to get Wicked in New Orleans. Twenty-two year old Ivy Morgan isn’t your average college student. She, and others like her, know humans aren’t the only thing trolling the French Quarter for fun… and for food. Her duty to the Order is her life. After all, four years ago, she lost everything at the hands of the creatures she’d sworn to hunt, tearing her world and her heart apart. Ren Owens is the last person Ivy expected to enter her rigidly controlled life. He’s six feet and three inches of temptation and swoon-inducing charm. With forest-green eyes and a smile that’s surely left a stream of broken hearts in its wake, he has an uncanny, almost unnatural ability to make her yearn for everything he has to offer. But letting him in is as dangerous as hunting the cold-blooded killers stalking the streets. Losing the boy she loved once before had nearly destroyed her, but the sparking tension that grows between them becomes impossible for Ivy to deny. Deep down, she wants… she needs more than what her duty demands of her, what her past has shaped for her. But as Ivy grows closer to Ren, she realizes she’s not the only one carrying secrets that could shatter the frail bond between them. There’s something he’s not telling her, and one thing is for certain. She’s no longer sure what is more dangerous to her—the ancient beings threatening to take over the town or the man demanding to lay claim to her heart and her soul.   

Handsome trendy powerful muscular man against white background with copy space

   Excerpt:

All the words in the world vanished the moment I got an eyeful of Ren. Holy hotness with an extra side of sexy, when Ren cleaned up, he took his handsomeness into a totally different stratosphere. The waves and curls of his hair were currently tamed, styled back from his face, showing off the angle of his cheekbones and the fullness of his lips. He was wearing a white dress shirt that showed off the hard lines of his broad shoulders and flashed a glimpse of tawny skin at his neck. I noticed then, somehow never really seeing it before, a leather cord hanging from his neck and disappearing under his shirt. I was sure that was what carried the clover, but as my gaze traveled over him, I quickly forgot about it. The edges of the tattoo poked out of the collar of his shirt, and his sleeves were rolled up to the elbow, exposing powerful forearms. The dark trousers completed the outfit. It was effortless class. When I dragged my gaze back to his, I realized I hadn’t been the only one doing the scrutinizing. He was staring at me in his intense, consuming way, and I stepped back from the door, suddenly feeling very . . . vulnerable. As if I was exposed in front of him. Heat crept into my cheeks as I plastered my arms to my sides. “Sorry I . . . took so long. I was . . .” I trailed off as he continued to stare at me. “What?” Ren stepped into the house, catching the door and closing it behind him. His presence filled the living room, and I could barely drag in enough air. “This is wrong,” he said, voice thick. Surprised by the statement, I glanced down at myself. I knew I looked like a silly girl playing dress up. “It’s the only dress I could wear,” I said, feeling the weight of embarrassment settling on my shoulders. He gave a little shake of his head as his bright green eyes met mine. “Oh, sweetness, you did wrong in all the right ways.” I wasn’t following. “How in the world am I going to pay attention when you look like that?” he chided softly, and my eyes widened. He moved forward, so close that I had to tip my chin up to meet his stare. He reached out, fingering the loose sleeve of my dress. “You are utterly distracting.” “I am?” A half smile appeared as his fingers skipped off the material and traced the line of my shoulder, sending a tight shiver down my spine. Then his finger wrapped around a curl, the back of his hand brushing the swell of my breast. He tugged it straight like he’d done before. “You are absolutely beautiful, Ivy.”

I love him. More than life, more than anything. And even though I'm terrified he'll suck me down with him, no one can save him but me.

SYNOPSIS


Tight - Standalone

I was happy in my small town. In my life as a single, thirty-two year old woman. I had a good job, wonderful friends, my independence.
I also hadn't been laid in three years. Hadn't been on a date in two. Had stopped counting calories and wearing makeup... a while ago.
Then Brett Jacobs waltzed in. Caressed my thigh, dug rough fingers into my hair, lowered his soft mouth to my skin, took sexual control of my mind and stirred it all around with what he packed in his pants. He flipped my quiet life upside down and crawled into a place in my heart I thought was dead.
The issues? His secret. Her. The fact that I don't even know she exists, and he thinks she's dead.
Everything is about to hit the fan and I can't hold on to him tight enough.
