Description:
The Wedding
Laughbox contains FIVE full-length novels and ONE ALL NEW NOVELLA! - from a
variety of New York Times bestselling romantic comedy author Julia Kent’s
series.
It’s wedding
season, and what’s better than a wedding in rom com style?
Julia Kent’s
madcap style, that is.
How about a
campground double wedding with three grooms and two brides? (What? Yep…) Or a
billionaire and his betrothed escaping their own wedding to flee to Vegas?
Paparazzi galore and a stubborn father of the groom ruining a CEO’s planned
nuptials until he takes matters into his own hands and does love his way? A
disgruntled older sister watching her sister find wedded bliss and maybe, just
maybe, finding her own love with a rival billionaire?
With five
different stories you get bridezillas, momzillas — even a billionaire dadzilla
- with over-the-top fun and lush, luxurious settings, all wrapped up in
community, connection, and loads of fun.
This boxed
set includes:
Shopping for
a Billionaire’s Wife
Shopping for
a CEO’s Wife
It’s Always
Complicated
Random Acts
of Love
Hasty
And Tasty,
an ALL NEW novella featuring Will and Mallory from the book Fluffy, as
they go on their honeymoon and discover that life is nothing but a series of
coincidences as their past comes back to haunt them with hilarious results.
Sink into
SIX humor-filled books that pour you into wedding planning, bachelorette and
bachelor parties, give you all the wedding jitters and proud family moments,
all wrapped up in a huge boxed set you can sink into and find your way to
long-term love.
Note: each
of these books can be read as a standalone, but they are part of larger series.
All of my Laughbox boxed sets are designed to give readers a taste of my books,
centered on a specific concept (in this case, weddings). Full disclosure for
readers.
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent
writes romantic comedy with an edge. Since 2013, she has sold more than 2
million books, with 4 New York Times bestsellers and more than 21
appearances on the USA Today bestseller list. Her books have been translated
into French, German, and Italian, with more titles releasing in the future.
From billionaires to BBWs to new adult rock stars, Julia finds a
sensual, goofy joy in every contemporary romance she writes. Unlike Shannon from
Shopping for a Billionaire, she did not meet her husband after dropping her
phone in a men's room toilet (and he isn't a billionaire she met in a romantic
comedy).
She lives in New England with her husband and three children where she
is the only person in the household with the gene required to change empty
toilet paper rolls.
She loves to hear from her readers by email at julia@jkentauthor.com,
on Twitter @jkentauthor, on Facebook at @jkentauthor, and on Instagram @jkentauthor.

“You look
extraordinary," Will whispers in my ear as the slow, sensual lyrics taper
off into the final notes of a beautiful love song.We’re dancing, my cheek against his shoulder, and I am breathing
all the breaths.
Every woman should have
this at their wedding. Their perfect wedding.
We've pulled it off, Will
and I. Five bridesmaids, five groomsmen, one mother of the bride, one father of
the bride, one mother of the groom, one father of the groom – and one big, new
extended family.
Color coordination to the
point of perfect alignment.
Ratios of food that create
culinary masterpieces in each individual mouth.
My sister's artisanal
Manchego cheese.
My best friends, all
happy, all at peace with their perfect partners.
This wedding couldn't be
more exquisite, and now the ante is about to be upped because the reception is
almost over and it is time to head to our cottage rental.
A gift from my best
friend, Perky, who booked it for us before our flight to Los Angeles.
No, we're not honeymooning in L.A. That's just a pit stop, an
overnight before the real deal.
Fiji.
That's right. We're
spending our honeymoon in Fiji paradise.
“Need some water?” he asks,
making me smile as I nod, because he’s tracking me. Watching out for me. We’re
in symbiosis mode, and it’s a delight to have someone who cares so much that he
notices my state. As he walks over to the bar, I watch, mesmerized.
Detective Hank Reynolds has just been handed the case of a lifetime. Another reality TV star has gone missing, and it’s up to the Atlanta police department to find her before it’s too late. While he’s digging around, he discovers there have been nearly twenty similar kidnappings in the surrounding areas over the last twenty years, and while trying to find out more—and a witness that’s still alive—he’s dragged into a past he wishes he could erase. His dreams become nightmares about the women, and his sanity unravels. Even his eyes begin to play tricks on him, but no hallucinations are as devious as the antics of the killer—who’s always one breath away—waiting for the chance to strike again.
Story 4:
This house is cursed, and everyone who lives there is in grave danger.
Ever wonder what stories you’d hear if walls could talk?
What if those walls witnessed unimaginable horrors?
Inside these pages is the story of one such house. What it sees, the people it meets, and what happens when a terrified spirit is invited to stay.
Story 1 – The Butcher
Story 2 – Marna, Fred, and Kimberly McDade
Story 3 – Lacy Mae Ritter
Story 4 – Mark and Olivia Cullpepper
Story 5 – The Writer
The House is a collection of short stories that ties in with the Pen Pals and Serial Killers series by Jo Michaels. You’ll find a couple of those characters named, and discover how one grew the teeth he used on the women he captured later.
Hi, I'm Jo. Let's forget all the "Jo Michaels is blah, blah, blah" stuff and just go with it. I'm a voracious reader (often reading more than one book at a time), a writer, a book reviewer, a mom, a wife, and one of the EICs at INDIE Books Gone Wild. I have an almost photographic memory and tend to make people cringe at the number of details I can recall about them and/or their book(s). My imagination follows me around like a conjoined twin and causes me to space out pretty often or laugh out loud randomly in completely inappropriate situations.
I have a degree in graphic design, and my journey to the end was one few students who begin that program ever complete. However, this was one case where my memory and OCD tendencies helped me. Graduation was one of the most amazing days of my life. But, my most amazing day was when my now husband proposed. Every little girl dreams of being Cinderella someday, and he pulled off the proposal of fantasies.
At the risk of sounding cliché, I'm going to let it out there and say how much I absolutely adore the man I'm married to. Along with my children, he's my whole world.
I've lived in Louisiana, Tennessee, and Georgia, but I've had my feet in almost every state. Traveling is something I adore, and have plans to someday see the Mongolia I've written about in Yassa.
One of my favorite things is hearing from fans! You can find me on social media most any day of the week. Connect! I'd love to hear from you.

Important Rule of Being a Shifter King—Never Fall in Love with the
Sacrifice.

Sandy Toes
by Kim Deister
Two lives turned upside down.
Two big secrets. One steamy vacation in the Hawaiian islands. Will
Ireland and Sully find what they want most in each other?
Ireland needed a break. It had been a rough year and she needed a fresh
start. Her coven was embroiled in a civil war and when she refused to
fall in line with the rest of them, she was kicked to the curb. By
her friends, by her family, even by her boyfriend. She'd moved past
the grief stage, even past the anger stage. For the first time in her
life, she was free to do what she wanted. She had no one's
expectations to fill but her own. So, she decided to celebrate. She
bought herself a three-week vacation to Hawaii. No responsibilities.
Just fun in the sun and time to figure out what was next for her.
When Sully brought home two tickets to Hawaii, he thought
Kallie would be thrilled. He'd envisioned three idyllic weeks on a
tropical island. Swimming in the ocean, laying on the beach, catching
a few waves, and eating in world class restaurants. But within an
hour, he found himself holding an extra ticket as he watched Kallie
put the last of her bags in another man's truck. He'd torn up that
ticket and flushed the pieces down the toilet. But he still had every
intention of using that other ticket. Maybe some time alone was
exactly what he needed.
Awakening
by Nicole Banks
Both dead on the inside, until a spark ignited a fire
they couldn’t outrun. Will they be able to withstand the heat or
will they get burned by their flames?
The most sought after hired gun. She’s ruthless, but even killers need a vacation.
He’s being hunted and there’s only one warrior strong enough to
keep him alive. A king whose seeking protection and a killer
searching for peace, but in each other they find so much more. When
survival instincts kick in, so do their primitive instincts. This
summer won’t be the only thing heating up.

I live in Calif with my husband and children. My grandkids are my treasure. When I am not writing, I enjoy going to cruises, concerts, eating white peaches, pistachio ice cream, and sipping margaritas.
I have been reading the romance and suspense genre since I was a young girl. I always dreamed of writing paranormal tales that are full of love, incredible sexy wild men, mysterious realms, and a dash of suspense.
I love writing in the paranormal genre because of the limitless range of characteristics, powers, and weaknesses available to develop the characters' and realms. I love sexy angels, gods, vampires, werewolves, dragons, and other entities.
Amanda Kimberley has been writing for well over three decades in various genres. Health Magazine and other leading health sources have named Amanda Kimberley's Fibro and Fabulous site as a top blog for fibro sufferers.
Kimberley, along with thirteen other authors, have been recently featured as Happy Ever After Hot List Indie Author for the paranormal romance anthology Claiming My Valentine.
She lives in Northern Texas with her family and pets, enjoys cooking, yoga, dancing, strength training, gaming, and wrestling.
I’m C.D. Gorri, Paranormal Fiction Author and Creator of the Grazi Kelly Universe. I’ve always been an avid reader, and I have a profound love for books and literature. When I’m not writing or taking care of my family I can usually be found with a book or tablet in my hand. I live in my home state of New Jersey with my husband, our children, and our dogs, Dash and Chewie.
I’m a busy mom of three and finding time for leisurely reading was never easy, so I write stories that are fast-paced, yet detailed with satisfying conclusions. If I thought making time to read was difficult, I was in for a huge surprise when I started writing, but now that I started, I can’t picture myself doing anything else! I love writing powerful women and strong heroes who face relatable problems in supernatural settings! I plan on increasing the GK Universe with each and every story I publish. You can follow me on social media to keep up to date on all my new releases and events!

J. P. Uvalle is a beautifully twisted soul who has a passion for writing paranormal romance and has the divine ability to make the unbelievable, believable. She was born and raised in Colorado Springs, went to Bel-Rea Institute of Animal Technology and graduated with an Associate's degree in Applied Science and Technology. J. P. Uvalle works part-time as an ICU technician in Highlands Ranch, Colorado at an emergency/specialty hospital. When not at work, she's spending time with family and friends.
My name is Kim and my last name, Deister, is pronounced “Die-ster.” I always tell my husband I should have kept my married name, Ingram. So much easier to to pronounce!
I am a writer thoroughly in love with words. Reading them, writing them… I love that words can take you outside of your world and let the unimaginable become imaginable. I love them so much that I decided I needed to create some worlds and stories of my own!
Besides being a writer, I am an Army veteran (and Army wife) and a mom to four sons. I grew up in northern New York in a tiny college town called Potsdam. Over the years, our Army life has taken us all over the place and I have been lucky enough to work and live in some pretty amazing places. Right now we live in Hawaii on the island of O’ahu, minutes from the North Shore.
Creatively living through music, writing and yoga.
I love the arts and how they move you and make you feel.
Reading has always been a great love of mine right after my love of music. Each song written is a story waiting to be told. Which, along with my over active imagination fueled my desire to write about the chaos that goes on in my head.
I love stringing words together. I love making people get lost in a story and connecting with fictional characters that remind them of someone they know.
I published my first book Shattered in 2013. It’s the first installment in the Shattered Hearts Series. Shattered started out as an assignment for a college course I took at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. After I graduated college I went through my old papers and reconnected with the story morphing into so much more then what I wrote in my college course.
Now you can find me doing yoga, listening to music and working on getting out all the stories in my head, including dabbling in poetry. (Which I've always had a secret love affair with).
