No Apologies by Sybil Bartel Giveaway & Guest Post


No Apologies Synopsis:
Never apologize
Hard-edged rocker Graham Allen has it all. He's flush with cash from playing bass in a band by night and restoring classic cars by day. And there are plenty of women willing to share his bed for a night, complication-free. Perfect, because if there's anything he learned from his past, it was to never get attached—to anything. So when bartender Carly Sullivan flashes her innocent smile, Graham isn't prepared for what happens next.
Never fall in love
Two rules, that's all Graham has—never apologize and never fall in love. He knows Carly is everything he should avoid. Cheerful and sweet, she has "relationship" written all over her. But Graham can't stay away from her probing questions and concerned blue eyes.
When Graham discovers Carly is hiding a crushing secret, he's prepared to risk it all. Until in one single moment, everything changes and Graham's past threatens to collide with his future. His life is crumbling down around him, and soon no apology in the world can save him.
He should've known to walk away.

Sybil Bartel Bio:
I grew up in Northern California with my head in a book and my feet in the sand. I dreamt of becoming a painter but the heady scent of libraries with their shelves full of books drew me into the world of storytelling. I love the New Adult genre, but really, any story about a love so desperately wrong and impossibly beautiful makes me swoon.
I now live in Southern Florida and while I don’t get to read as much as I like, I still bury my toes in the sand. If I’m not writing or fighting to contain the banana plantation in my backyard, you can find me spending time with my handsomely tattooed husband, my brilliantly practical son and a mischievous miniature boxer…
But Seriously?
Here are ten things you really want to know about me.
I grew up a faculty brat. I can swear like a sailor. I love men in uniform. I hate being told what to do. I can do your taxes (but don’t ask). The Bird Market in Hong Kong freaks me out. My favorite word is desperate…or dirty, or both—I can’t decide. I have a thing for muscle cars. But never reply on me for driving directions, ever. And I have a new book boyfriend every week—don’t tell my husband
10 Facts About NO APOLOGIES - By Sybil Bartel
Here are ten facts about NO APOLOGIES and Graham Allen. And as you probably may have guessed by now, I like my bad boys—oh do I love them. The bad-er, the naughtier, the hotter, the better! So, here goes.
1.      Graham wears steel-toed Dr. Marten’s boots—like, always.
2.      When Graham wears cologne, it’s CK One Shock. Queue the mm—mmmm.
3.      Even though Graham can play other instruments (guitar, piano—swoon), he prefers the Bass. He thinks it gives him a level of anonymity. What he doesn’t realize? When he’s on stage, there is no hiding who he is—sexy, fierce and totally hot.
4.      Graham thinks Myles can outplay him, but actually, Myles is in awe of Graham’s talent. And? Myles wishes Graham would write more songs.
5.      Carly is the first person Graham has ever given a present to. Hint: Chapter 18. So sweet.
6.      Graham hates T-shirts that have any writing on them. And I mean, hate. But? A Ducati logo is okay. See #7.
7.      Graham’s helmet is a Ducati Logo ’14 Full Face helmet—it’s matte black, total boss. And? It matches his Ducati Diavel in Dark Stealth. Hello hotness.
8.      Graham’s favorite song is the one he wrote for Carly. Hint: Chapter 26. Oh em gee, heartbreaker.
9.      Graham’s favorite color used to be black…then he saw her for the first time. And now? Carly’s blue eyes are Graham’s new definition of sexy. And oh, his favorite color to.
10.  Graham says thank you only once in NO APOLOGIES. Hint: Chapter 40. Prepare to melt.
And that’s my list. Hope you enjoyed it! -Sybil
