Train Wreck RELEASE BLITZ By T.Gephart




Title: Train Wreck
Author: T. Gephart
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: July 10, 2017



Blurb

“No passion, no emotion, no originality—a train wreck of epic portions.”

Those were the words to describe Eve Thorton’s exhibition. Not even a fine arts degree from Yale or her daddy’s bank account could save her from the scathing reviews. And failure was a word Eve would never be comfortable with. Not even close.

Plotting the demise of every critic who’d written her off was her first instinct. But that would come later. Instead, she would show them that she wasn’t a bored socialite with more money than talent.

She would prove everyone wrong, and she wasn’t afraid to get her hands dirty. But when her journey for redemption crashed headfirst into Josh Logan, the sexy, talented tattooist from Queens, getting her hands dirty took on a whole new meaning.

Josh was everything Eve wasn’t, translating on skin what she couldn’t onto her canvas. All she had to do was convince him to share his jaw-dropping brilliance, and help her—seeing him naked—a bonus. Then she could go back to her regular life, vindicated.

It should have been easy. Pity her plans had a habit of derailing.

Author Bio

T Gephart is an indie author from Melbourne, Australia.

T's approach to life has been somewhat unconventional. Rather than going to University, she jumped on a plane to Los Angeles, USA in search of adventure. While this first trip left her somewhat underwhelmed and largely depleted of funds it fueled her appetite for travel and life experience.

With a rather eclectic resume, which reads more like the fiction she writes than an actual employment history, T struggled to find her niche in the world.

While on a subsequent trip the United States in 1999, T met and married her husband. Their whirlwind courtship and interesting impromptu convenience store wedding set the tone for their life together, which is anything but ordinary. They have lived in Louisiana, Guam and Australia and have traveled extensively throughout the US. T has two beautiful young children and one four legged child, Woodley, the wonder dog.

An avid reader, T became increasingly frustrated by the lack of strong female characters in the books she was reading. She wanted to read about a woman she could identify with, someone strong, independent and confident and who didn't lack femininity. Out of this need, she decided to pen her first book, A Twist of Fate. T set herself the challenge to write something that was interesting, compelling and yet easy enough to read that was still enjoyable. Pulling from her own past "colorful" experiences and the amazing personalities she has surrounded herself with, she had no shortage of inspiration. With a strong slant on erotic fiction, her core characters are empowered women who don't have to sacrifice their femininity. She enjoyed the process so much that when it was over she couldn't let it go.

T loves to travel, laugh and surround herself with colorful characters. This inevitably spills into her writing and makes for an interesting journey - she is well and truly enjoying the ride!


Based on her life experiences, T has plenty of material for her books and has a wealth of ideas to keep you all enthralled.

#1 Crush By T. Gephart



Tia Monroe was smart, sassy and successful. Sure, she could get a little crazy at times—life around Tia was never boring—but that was part of her appeal. And while she didn’t see herself as ‘classically beautiful’, she had no shortage of options in the boyfriend department. She just hadn’t found one who held her interest.

Until she laid eyes on Eric Larsson, and then it was lust at first sight. 

He packed the perfect mix of smoldering sexy and unapologetic cool into his blond-haired, blue-eyed, ridiculously hot six-foot-four frame. One smile from him was enough to twist her insides, making her girlie bits tingle in the most delicious way. But it wasn’t just his looks, he was smart and funny—charming in the most a-dork-able way.

The only problem was . . . Tia had never actually met him.

Eric Larsson was one of Hollywood’s hottest movie stars, rising to the top of his game and leaving a trail of disintegrated panties in his wake. Tia’s were no exception—but she wasn’t delusional. Love, marriage and happily-ever-after were not part of her fantasy; she just wanted to meet him. Just one time. One time. Confident that just seeing him in the flesh would get him out of her system.

So, with her resolve steeled, Tia set off on a quest to make it happen while avoiding her mug shot being splayed across the five o’clock news.

The journey no doubt will make for one hell of a story.



Who's your number 1 crush??? Mines between Taylor Lautner and Jon Snow from Game of Thrones. Hell, I have so many celeb crushes, I could fill a diary. 

And I'm guessing I'm not the only one who has imagined meeting their #1 crush. Because come on... Who wouldn't want to randomly bump into their celeb crush and fall helplessly in love with them? 

Well, Tia, she does what most can't and goes out of her way to see her celeb crush. She only plans to see him, to see if he has any flaws, but her plan goes to hell when he NOTICES her. And I don't mean in a stalkerish kind of way, but in a... Do you want to go get a burger? way. 

It's a fun, light read, although I did feel kind of sorry for Tia at the end. She couldn't find a way to tell Eric how she actually met him and why, but to be fair, he did pursue her, even if she did go out of her way to meet him.

But all in all, the book is great and made me laugh.

The Fall By T Gephart



Salvation doesn’t exist.
It’s a lie people tell themselves in the dark, alone so their conscience might be eased. To give them hope that, in the end, we can all be forgiven.
Except we can’t. 
And no amount of praying will change that.
For me there will be no redemption, and I will leave this world with the same black heart I entered it with.
The comfort in knowing who I am and what I am capable of keeps me warmer than any lie of having my soul saved. 
Because I know the truth. 
Because I know there is no Heaven.
And there is no Hell.
There is only the fall.

Michael has no one. No family. No Friends. And not a soul in the world cares about him, only a system that tried to break him.
With a strong dislike for establishments and conformity, he has lived his life as a rogue. A hired thug with no allegiances except to his own word.

Sofia has grown up in the shadow of her father—one of the most powerful drug lords in the city. She has vowed to bring him to justice, moving through the ranks of the Chicago PD in an effort to be as far removed from her father’s lifestyle as possible. 

Two worlds collide when Michael shows up at her door, a gun in his hand and a look in his eyes that terrifies her. Suddenly, Sofia has a price on her head and Michael is the only one who can keep her out of the crossfire. 



I received an ARC in exchange for and honest review...

Sofia comes from one of the most powerful families in Chicago, and when she turned her back on them, joining the force, they cast her out. For justice, she's been seeking her own investigation to not only take down her father, but other families out there who get away with what they do. 

Unknown to her, her investigation is known. Not only by her father but from the others she's investigation. With a bounty now on her head she has no choice but to trust Michael, who shows up, a gun in his hand and orders to keep her safe. 

What I thought would be a simple story of boy saves girl, turns out to be so much more. 
Not only does Michael have his own demons, but there's also a twist to the story I didn't see coming that concerns him. 
There was a whole love-hate thing I had for Michael. One minute he was charming, redeemable, and in the next he was an insufferable asshole who I thought was heartless. But his actions stem down to his up-bringing. 

He and Sofia, they're like chalk and cheese. They don't match but in a way, they do. She helps him bare his burdens, making him feel and in return he makes her feel safe, something she's never truly felt. 

I loved this story. 
I am a little disappointed certain bits dragged, and that the ending didn't anything more away. The cliffhanger drove me mad but in a good way. I seriously can't wait for the next book. 

So many dark twists and turns. It will have you hanging on to the edge of your seat, biting your nails, and wishing you had the next book. 
This book is so much different than T.Gephart books. Its a risk she took and it's fallen in her favour because the book is brilliant. I know most people don't like authors going off genre and sometimes I understand but in this case, T.Gephart really proved herself. The writing is brilliant, the story-line gripping and thrilling and the ending just blows you away. 
Make sure you check it out.

A twist of fate (Lexi #1) By T.Gephart



Lexi is a successful PR manager for a multinational firm, based in Melbourne, Australia. She is an energetic and impulsive soul whose passions sometimes control her life. Through a twist of fate she is chosen to represent a famous client, catapulting her into a new life in New York – fulfilling her in a way that she had never imagined. 

When Lexi meets Alex, sparks fly. Their chemistry is explosive and they can’t get enough of each other. Her role as the PR manager for his band, Power Station, means that they have to keep their arrangement secret and this proves to be a complication for both of them. 

The story follows the twists and turns of six months in Lexi’s life, exploring the complicated rules she creates to govern her relationships and the friends that help her realize that life is more fun when you throw out the rulebook and that love is a major part of being happy.



Because of reading High Strung and Crash Ride, I wanted to know Alex's story. I wanted to know about him and Lexi. 
The story begins off slow and it did take me a while to get into the story, but once I was, I got completely hooked. I loved Lexi's no bullshit attitude and I LOVED Alex's take no prisoners attitude. Both of them together proved they were going to hit it off. 

The story continues with Lexi and her commitment issues.... 
Alex's wanting to be tied down.... 
and the bands upcoming album...... 

I did feel like it dragged towards the end and I won't be reading anymore in this series. I didn't feel like the end, ended with something that made me go 'ohhhhhh' I need to read the next one. 

The author is a brilliant writer and I reckon if I had read this series first I would have read through them all, but because of reading her newest novels I knew most of it.

Crash Ride (Power Station #2) By T Gephart



Megan Winters had lusted over Troy Harris, drummer for international rock band Power Station, for years. Not being the type of girl who was invited backstage, her fantasies had stayed just that, fantasies. When her best friend unexpectedly starts dating one of the other band members it puts her on a crash course at war with her libido. Her solution— they need to have sex. Surely once she had scratched that itch, and saw the fantasy didn’t live up to the reality she could move on. I mean, what could possibly go wrong? 

Troy Harris vowed to stay away from Megs. The sexy, smart and funny blonde left his mind and his body feeling like a pretzel. No matter how attracted he was to her, she was a no-go zone. The best friend of his best friend’s girlfriend? Cue the reality show. But when she gives him the chance to have a one-night no strings good time, there was no way he could turn that down. Maybe she was right. One night, and then they could go back to being just friends. 

Both of them were delusional. 



I really am enjoying this series. I didn't think a book could get any funnier than the first book in this series, High Strung, but then I read this one and I fell in love. 
It was so good. 
I'm not really into the whole rock star romance thing, but I've fell in love with all the band members. 

I'm sorry but I have to get this out LOL TROY HARRIS 
Megs does nothing but call Troy, Troy Harris and it has me in stitches every. single. time. 
I never pictured her character to be the way it was. I think with her high paid job, the seriousness of it and how well known her family is, I pictured her to be this stuck up, but easy going woman. But I'm so judgmental because she is so easy going, funny, beautiful and has the best sense of humor. Also, she can use any situation to flirt. The text messages between the two are off the charts hilarious. 

Then we have Troy.... 
He's so lovely, sweet, hot and caring that I didn't want the book to end. I wanted to keep on reading it. 

The book is funny, sexy, and completely hot, but that's not all it brings. Towards the end I had been that heartbroken I didn't know what to do. It was so incredibly sad. 

But all that aside, it had a really good ending and I can't wait to read more from T.Gephart or meet her when she goes to York Tattooed bad boy signing this April.

High Strung (Power station Book One) By T.Gephart



Ashlyn Murphy was not living the dream. Twenty-seven years old, college educated, up to her eyeballs in debt and yet she’d been relegated to pouring beers at a local bar. She desperately needed an out and was willing to do anything to get back into the corporate world. Well, almost anything. Dan Evans, Rock Star was NOT one of those things. In fact she despised him. Apparently he didn’t get the memo. 

Dan Evans, bass player of international rock band Power Station had it all. He was rich, travelled the world, played to millions of adoring fans and had no shortage of beautiful women willing to share his bed. He didn’t need a moody redheaded knockout with a superiority complex complicating his life. Or did he? 

When two people who couldn’t be more opposite cross paths, it’s bound to be explosive; sometimes all you can do is sit back and enjoy the show.




High string had me in stitches from the beginning to the end. It kind of reminded me of Play. 
Dan Evans is one of the funniest characters I've read about in a long time. He was so serious when he spoke complete and utter bollocks that you couldn't do anything but laugh. I swear, I cried laughing so much during the book. 

I fell in love with Dan from the beginning. His easy going sense of humor, charming good looks and his ability to speak what is on his mind is what attracted me to him. He is honestly so loveable. 
This is the first novel I've read from this author and I'll be definitely reading the next one. But.... I'm a little confused (and will research this) as to Lexi and Ashes story. Did they have one and I missed it? Because their story has me intrigued and I want to know how they get together. But this says BOOK ONE. 

The two are completely opposites, and that's putting it nicely. But together they are perfect for each other. 

The only problem I had with the story was towards the end. She leaves him for something so ridiculous. To me it was anyway. Who cares how they met as long as he didn't cheat or pursue you at the same time? Or that he went out to support you knowing you were to good to work in a bar? I honestly went a little off Ashlyn on this part wanting to scream spoiled brat. But then it's fiction and reading it from her perspective I can understand why. Kind of. Grrr.
