Cocky Fiancé
Cocky Fiancé | Melissa Jane
6 posts
He wasn’t meant to be on my radar, he was definitely the off-limits guy.My brother’s best friend, my friend’s ex, but most of all he was my boss.Hawk Carnage resembled one thing, and one thing only. Sex.He used it, he knew it, he lived it. Hawk owned the largest lingerie company in the world, and I was his leading lady.In business.But now business and friendship were about to be crossed. The lines blurred, and I was ready to dip my toes in the forbidden water. Because no matter how much I said I could refrain from Hawk Carnage, now was not the time.He was to be my fake fiancé.And I was about to sink into that forbidden water, with Hawk’s hands clutching my sides.Lord help me because I was about to enjoy every moment of it.Even if it was just for fun.Even if it would ruin everything.I was going to dive in head first.

#LitsyPSA: This is better than working, to be honest. The Author‘s Guild represented one of the authors involved in #cockygate and this is their response to what happened today in court. http://bit.ly/2LcaPei

DGRachel Thanks for this! 7y
jpmcwisemorgan @DGRachel You‘re welcome! 7y
LibrarianRyan Awesome!! 7y
jpmcwisemorgan @LibrarianRyan Yes, I don‘t think anything is really going to go in her favor. It‘s really sad because she‘s burned a lot of bridges. 7y

#LitsyPSA: Some of the people directly effected by #cockygate - from Courtney Milan‘s Twitter.

#LitsyPSA: It looks like court is out, for now. The TRO (the attempt to stop a challenge to the TM) has been denied so it looks like the TM challenge will continue. From what I‘m seeing so far it looks like the judge thinks the TM for cocky is weak. Euna Park (handle is eunapark) has tweeted some in what she heard and others will likely do the same. #cockygate

#LitsyPSA: #cockygate is in court today. Suzan Tisdale and Courtney Milan have tweeted over the last couple of days but no one has details yet. It looks like Hopkins is going after the creator of Cocky Tales for anyone who bought it. I think I need to order a paper copy, on principle.

Burghbookaddict I had no idea what #cockygate was and I just googled it and wtf 😂 I dont usually read romance but Im about to buy that book too just as a nice 🖕 to that psycho author 7y
InLibrisVeritas I wish that woman would fade back into obscurity. I hope the court case goes in the other author's favor. 7y
dylanisreading I can't believe this is still happening. So ridiculous. 7y

DGRachel @dsfisher and I bought both the Kindle and print version of Cocktales, just in case things go sideways and Amazon pulls the e-version. 7y
jpmcwisemorgan @laurenashley I‘ve been trying to update on it here but to be honest there‘s a lot happening now so it‘s hard to do it all. If you‘re on Twitter you can find it with #cockygate and I‘ve the names of a few people who‘ve had a lot to say so you find out more that way. 7y
jpmcwisemorgan @InLibrisVeritas I think a lot of this is actually related to trying to take advantage of the KU system, at least tangentially. She does need to be stopped but it‘s been enlightening. @Bianca It is ridiculous and she just keeps doubling down. 7y
jpmcwisemorgan @DGRachel I may do the same. I‘m worried they might because she‘s suing at least one person behind the book. 7y
DGRachel Yes. Penny Reid is in court today because of this, or at least her IP attorneys are. I think the price has actually been lowered on the print version. 7y
InLibrisVeritas @jpmcwisemorgan Ah that makes sense. 7y
CoverToCoverGirl What complete utter nonsense... this makes me sooo 😡... she needs to fade into the pages of obscurity forever. 7y

This is one of the books that the authors opted to change its name - it‘s now Arrogant Fiance. Some of the trademark stuff that Hopkins is doing might not fall under what she trademarked & it looks like she has trademarked or wordmarked the font that she can‘t legally trademark. This all appears to be a ploy to get her books higher in searches. Anyway, if you want to help beleaugered authors out, here‘s one you could buy. #cockygate
