Release Blitz for GET REAL by @tellulahdarling @GCReading #giveaway
Get Real by Tellulah Darling
Genre: NA, Contemporary Romance
Series: Get Real #1
Available September 26th, 2015
Get Real is a New Adult romantic comedy with sass, sex, and swoon, set in the world of “Cadabras"–humans with magical powers.
Francesca Bellafiore is a good Jewish girl, living up to family expectations that she use her magic to heal others. Underneath, she’s a wannabe badass with her heart set on becoming a detective and solving magical crimes. But nice girls don't disappoint their moms.
Party boy Rafael Muñoz does everything possible to publicly disappoint his high profile father. Privately, it's a different story. His carefully crafted bad boy reputation masks the fact he’s a master illusionist, forced into solo covert ops. The role is wearing thin and Rafael longs to be part of a team.
When Francesca meets Rafael at a friend's party, she's taken by the sexy stranger. Until he speaks. Beautiful plumage doesn't compensate for spectacular ego. Rafael finds Francesca's sweetness a turn-on. For about five minutes. Judgmental golden girls are more trouble than they're worth. Then a terrified girl with reality warping powers, locked and loaded on their destruction, whisks the pair to Manhattan. Francesca and Rafael are caught in a web of magic, minions, secrets, and enough sexual tension to power NYC. Desperate to prove themselves, their only chance to save the city and survive is to team up, trust each other–and maybe even fall in love.
Provided they don't kill each other first.

Get Real Teaser
POV: Rafael
I shoved my hands into my pockets, jiggling the loose change
and wanting some kind of confrontation. I stepped outside. That girl with Byron
who’d been staring and laughing earlier was candidate numero uno. Want to diss me? Do it to my face, chica.
I found her healing a gash on
some guy’s cheek, holding a vase in her free hand while berating him for his
choice in headwear. “Va bene. Go,” she ordered.
He slunk away
with a sheepish look and I stepped up, my shadow falling over her.
“If you need medical services it
better not be alcohol poisoning because I will not let you enjoy it.” She
turned. Her fingers tightened on the rim of the vase at the sight of me.
“Hi,” I said.
She raised her chin, regarding me
levelly with these amazing dark brown eyes. “It’s you.” Her sexy Italian accent
hooked into me.
“Apparently.”
She fumbled the
vase.
We both grabbed the same edge
before it could hit the ground, my hand landing on hers. Her skin was cool and
smooth. The rest of her was twitchy and flustered. It cheered me up in a petty
way.
“Rafael. Call me Rafa. Official
friend of the Byron–Jones hook up.” I patted my shirt down with my free hand.
“I had a badge but I lost it.”
“Next time ask for a lanyard.”
She tugged the vase away with a slight smile, tucking it under her arm like a
football. What a mouth. ¡Dios mĂo! “I didn’t buy tickets to the event,” she
said.
I pretended to look stern, mostly
because I wanted to check her out some more. “You boycotting the games?”
That got me a full–on grin, which
hit me in the gut. Who was this girl and how had I never seen her before?
“Seen one game, seen them all,”
she said. She walked briskly past me back to the swing she’d been sitting on
earlier and set the vase on the table.
I followed, sinking into the
chair beside her. “You know my name. It seems unfair I don’t know yours.”
She hesitated for long enough
that I wasn’t sure she was going to answer with anything other than “get lost.”
“Francesca,” she said at last. She flicked her bangs off her forehead. “My mom
works for your dad. You’re Javier’s son, right?”
Those words were like a douse of
cold water. “Yeah.” I waited for her next words. Her next look. Her obvious
disdain. I stiffened, reminded of why I had come out here in the first place
and ready to rip into her.
“She’s a
Liaison.” Even for the simplest of sentences, her hands gestured madly. Cute.
“Mirella
Bellafiore.”
My heart sunk. Now I knew exactly
who she was. And wished I didn’t. Francesca Bellafiore, golden girl. Latest
pride and joy of the Bellafiore clan and totally off–limits to me. Javier would
freak, which would be fun, but honestly? Good girls weren’t my thing. “Yeah,
sure. I’ve met her. Guess you’re excited to start all that healing stuff.”
Disappointment
and contempt? flickered in her eyes.
Apparently hot girl and I were natural enemies. Figures. I wasn’t about to be
an asshole to her though. It would ruin my façade.
I was about to make my excuses
and go, but I noticed her twisting this hideous bracelet tighter and tighter
into her arm. “You okay?”
Her hand stilled.
“Are you reading me?”
“No,” I said with exaggerated patience. “I don’t go around
reading everyone I meet. Don’t need to most of the time. People telegraph
enough on their own.” I nodded at her reddened skin. She jutted her chin out.
“People shouldn’t take everything at face value.”
Like me.
