ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date March 27, 2018
Possessive hands. Wild obsession.
He’ll break any rule to claim her.
Billionaire bad boy Parker Manning buried his dark past beneath fast cars and faster women. With his chiseled good looks and Texas oil legacy, Parker’s used to laying claim to whatever—or whoever—he desires, and he’s never met a woman he couldn’t seduce into his bed.
Not, that is, until Megan Clark. Years ago, she flatly refused him. Now, she’s back—and she needs a favor. No way is Parker letting her get away again, and he conditions his agreement on one sensuous night with Megan in his bed and at his mercy.
He never expects to want more. To crave this woman who fascinates and challenges him. But he does, and now he’s determined to possess her.
But Megan’s a woman with secrets of her own, and if Parker wants to claim her, he’s going to have to conquer his past and show Megan his true heart.
Meet Mr. June. Summer’s heat has nothing on him.
And don’t miss Bar Bites: A Man of the Month Cookbook by J. Kenner and Suzanne M. Johnson, featuring recipes, slices of life, and an all new short story!
•••••••••••••
REVIEW: IN YOUR EYES is the sixth instalment in J. Kenner’s contemporary, adult MAN OF THE MONTH erotic, romance novella series focusing on a fund raiser for the popular Austin, Texas bar known as The Fix. This is billionaire businessman Parker Manning, and cosmetician Megan Clark’s story line. IN YOUR EYES can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary, although I recommend reading the series in order for backstory and cohesion.
SOME BACKGROUND: The Fix on Sixth, a local Austin hangout and bar, is in desperate need of renovations and a quick influx of cash so a plan is put into motion, by a group of regulars, a plan that includes a Man of the Month calendar competition, a recipe book, and a reality show aimed at rehabbing the bar.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Parker and Megan) IN YOUR EYES follows the building romance between billionaire businessman Parker Manning, and cosmetician Megan Clark. With the success of the previous five competitions Megan Clark entertained the idea of having the entrants share fliers with family and friends but in doing so inadvertently jumped the gun on a prospective entrant. Enter billionaire businessman Parker Manning, and the man with whom Megan would fall in love. What ensues is the quick building romance between our leading couple, and the potential fall-out when Megan’s past comes looking for revenge.
IN YOUR EYES is a sexy and edgy, friends to lovers romance wherein our couple, who worked previously together, rekindled a friendship started in LA. Prior to the most recent competition, our heroine accidentally got ahead of herself before confirming Parker’s participation in the Man of the Month contest forcing Parker to ask for something in return-one night together, no questions asked, but one night that leads to something more. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and sensual.
Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including many of the regular who have been working on the Man of the Month calendar. We are introduced to Parker’s friend Derek Winston, who may or may not have a relationship with Megan’s friend Amanda.
IN YOUR EYES is a quick read; a fast paced, enjoyable and decadent story. The premise is spirited; the romance is spicy; the characters are animated and honorable and heart warming.

J. Kenner (aka Julie Kenner) is the New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, Wall Street Journal and #1 International bestselling author of over seventy novels, novellas and short stories in a variety of genres.
Though known primarily for her award-winning and international bestselling erotic romances (including the Stark and Most Wanted series) that have reached as high as #2 on the New York Times bestseller list, JK has been writing full time for over a decade in a variety of genres including paranormal and contemporary romance, “chicklit” suspense, urban fantasy, and paranormal mommy lit.
JK has been praised by Publishers Weekly as an author with a “flair for dialogue and eccentric characterizations” and by RT Bookclub for having “cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them.” A five time finalist for Romance Writers of America’s prestigious RITA award, JK took home the first RITA trophy awarded in the category of erotic romance in 2014 for her novel, Claim Me (book 2 of her Stark Trilogy). Her Demon Hunting Soccer Mom series (as Julie Kenner) is currently in development with AwesomenessTV/Awestruck.
Her books have sold over three million copies and are published in over twenty languages.
In her previous career as an attorney, JK worked as a clerk on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and practiced primarily civil, entertainment and First Amendment litigation in Los Angeles and Irvine, California, as well as in Austin, Texas.
