I know I shouldn’t want her, but that’s not stopping me from going after what I want. Jade McKay isn’t just beautiful, she’s temptation wrapped in one delicious package. The way she looks at me. The way she makes me lose control. The way she says my name. It’s everything. She’s everything. There’s only one problem — she’s my best friend’s sister and ten years younger than me. Completely off-limits…and impossible to resist. Now that we’ve crossed that line, there’s no going back. I’m not letting anyone or anything stand between us. Because Jade isn’t what I want, she’s what I need.

✨TEASER: TEST OF TIME by @harlowjamesauthor releasing April 10th! This will be a simultaneous release in Audio with the amazing narrators Aiden Snow and Ava Erickson in DUET!
Falling for the single dad next door wasn’t part of my plan when I moved to Blossom Peak.
I accepted the teaching job for a fresh start, far away from the controlling ex I left behind.
But Rhonan Hart is everything you could ask for in a man. Strong, dependable, helpful, an amazing father to his daughter, Ellis… and looks beyond sinful in his sheriff’s uniform.
Except his daughter is my student, and he’s determined to pretend like our connection doesn’t exist.
(I’m determined to pretend he didn’t see me naked when my shower blew up, and he tried to save me.)
But soon, he’s sneaking over to my house at night—warming my bed, tearing down his walls, and making me want something I knew I couldn’t have.
My life is a mess, one I’m still trying to clean up.
But this man and his child give me a glimpse of a future I want, no matter what the cost.
Just when I think I’m on the path to moving on, fate decides to give us the test of time.
I’d almost forgotten what it felt like to smile, to laugh, and to really live. Until I met him.
Heart-stoppingly handsome.
Totally forbidden.
Keats Matthews looked at me like I was something special.
He was escaping his past. I wanted to escape my present. Together, we fell hard and fast and knew we had found forever. Or so we thought …
Six years later, his shoulders are broader than I remembered, his charming smile thaws my frozen heart, and it’s so tempting to run my fingers through his hair like I did years ago. But it’s the tenderness and warmth in his brown eyes that remind me of the forever we almost shared.
It’s magic when we’re together again. Our chemistry has only magnified. Seeing him, confident and more irresistible than ever, has me falling for him all over again and hoping for a second chance.
But he still believes our timing was off before. He’s wrong. It was the secret I kept hidden that was our undoing. Time hasn’t healed old wounds, and not everything hidden has come to light. When it does, we’ll stand together or fall apart. Either way, we must find out.
This omnibus contains all three of the Marked Beneath the Moon books by Lola Glass. These spicy romances each focus on a different couple with their own happily ever after.
Book 1- The Wolf King’s Mate
I’ve been abducted by the werewolf king. He’s deadly. Violent. Cruel. But not to me. To me, he’s almost nice. I guess it helps that I’m the only female werewolf he’s ever met. And that his wolf has decided I’m going to be his mate, whether I like it or not.
Book 2- The Wolf Prince’s Mate
I accidentally screwed the Alpha’s brother—and not the one whose wolf is determined I’m his mate.
Book 3- The Wolf Guard’s Mate
I hooked up with my twin sister’s brother-in-law under the full moon… and ended up mated to him.
Thanks for joining me for a cocktail and some girl talk. I live the dream in my own slice of paradise where I get to enjoy colorful sunsets from my rocking chair while I’m working. I have my very own romance hero with Mr. Rose and there’s more than a few little rose buds running around. A couple aren’t so little anymore! We keep things interesting with cats and a dog and the critters that roam though the yard (fingers crossed the mountain lions stay away).
I returned to Huckleberry Springs to start over with my name on a bakery and my past sealed up tighter than a mason jar. I plan to run my business, keep my history to myself, and ignore handsome flirts like local distillery owner and rancher, Cruz Foster.
Cruz might make me forget how to frost a cookie, but I’ve been taken in by guys like him before. When he turns up the charm, I punch his efforts down like a first proof of sourdough.
He backs off but continues being sweet. My car dies, and he’s there. I need a ride, and he’s there. I want to tell him that I miss the whiskey flirt with the lopsided smile, and he’s there with a sizzling kiss.
The real Cruz is even better than the one he shows everyone else. I fall harder for the guy who loves his family, works hard, and shares his troubled childhood with me. A man who fixes himself is my weakness
But secrets like mine don’t stay buried in small towns. If I don’t want Cruz sinking to the bottom with me faster than blueberries in cake batter, I need to break my heart and go back to minding my own business.

Elodie has returned to her hometown to open a bakery and is determined to handle the mistakes from her past on her own despite the toll it is taking on her. She may be attracted to Cruz and appreciate his attempt to flirt with her but she will never tell him that as she isn’t about to let any man into her life.
Cruz has a difficult past of his own which has left him with some insecurities. He has had feeling for Elodie for a while however all his attempts to get close to her are rebuffed until he shows her that he wants her for much than a good time and that she can trust him with her heart and her past.
Elodie’s past has taught her to be cautious however Cruz is both patient and supportive as he shows her with actions rather than words that he is the man she didn’t know she wanted in her life. Tim Paige was the perfect choice for Cruz as he brings out both the sweet and swoony sides of Cruz while Kelsey Navarro Foster brings out all the emotions that Elodie is experiencing and the depth of her character.
From USA Today best selling author Scarlett Cole, writing as S. Cole, comes an electrifying MMF, grumpy x sunshine x lightning, motorcycle club romance.
Isla
I wanted to be loved by a biker with my whole heart, but all they ever took was my body.
Somewhere along the way, I stopped recognizing the woman I’d become.
Inheriting my Nanna’s rundown house is the fresh start I need.
A life away from the club. Away from men who only ever take.
So the last thing I need is Jackal and Shade moving into the only other house on the street…and offering me more than just help with renovations.
Shade
I’ve never thought I was worth loving.
I’m grumpy, withdrawn, and come with baggage.
Jackal saw through all that and loved me anyway. For me, he chose monogamy.
Men like me don’t get one great love, let alone two.
But I’m looking at Isla differently now…and wondering if there’s a way to love her without destroying what we’ve built.
Jackal
I fell in love with Shade the day I met him, even though he had no intention of loving me back.
He wanted monogamy, and he was worth the sacrifice.
But now he’s looking at Isla the same way I am.
And I can’t stop imagining a life where the three of us choose each other.
Until violence hits, and we don’t know which of us is the target.
We’ve been given the kind of love you only dare to hope for.
BLURB: Neutral Zone is a friends-to-lovers romance featuring an unconventional hockey hero and his live-life-to-the-fullest best friend who have to get honest with each other when life gets real.
I’ve fallen in love with my best friend. I know, I know. That’s a terrible idea, but it’s going to be fine because we have a plan. A best friends with benefits plan.
We’ll keep spending our days and nights together. We’ll keep cheering each other on and making each other laugh. We’ll keep staying up all night in my room, watching true crime documentaries the way besties do.
But now it’s going to get steamy. Very steamy.
In order to keep our friendship intact, boundaries have been set, and as long as we don’t cross the line, everything will be fine. Seriously. Trust me. It’s a great plan, and it’s all going to work out, and there’s zero chance that everything will go up in flames.
Although I do have a history of accidentally lighting things on fire…but really, that was just a couch. And a house. This is different. I swear.
Neutral Zone is the fourth and final book in Season Two of the Bainbridge U Hockey series, and it can be enjoyed as a standalone. If you’re a sucker for a hot mess hero with a heart of gold and a feisty heroine who isn’t afraid to fight for the man she loves, then get ready for Mickey and Viv!
One night. One secret. Nine months to fall for real.
Everett Donnelly. Hockey god. PR nightmare. And now … my baby daddy.
I don’t even like sports. I only went to the game for my best friend’s birthday, and I had no idea who he was when I pulled on his jersey. He noticed me anyway.
With his name and number across my back, he decided I was his—for one night only.
No promises. No numbers.
Just a night of passion we both walked away from. Until the positive pregnancy test. Now I’m chasing down a man known for his one-night stands with a career already hanging by a thread.
The last thing he needs is me … or the baby growing inside me.
But neither of us saw the offer coming.
A deal that could put my life back on track—and save his public image.
All I have to do is fake it.
Except the longer we pretend, the harder it is to ignore what’s becoming very real.
My belly is growing. So are my feelings.
And suddenly, this arrangement is starting to feel like the most dangerous play of all.

🥅Review🥅 Rhett is a professional hockey player who is a force to be reckoned with on ice the ice however his actions off the ice don’t always leave the best impression. He is popular and charming when it comes to women and when he meets Bea he believes that she will be no different than the woman who have come before her however he is about to realize that she is a game changer.
Bea is content with her life as she is focused on ensuring the success of the salon she has opened and has a great group of friends who are there for her. Agreeing to go to a hockey game was supposed to be a fun night however that goes sideways when the night she spent with Rhett doesn’t end there when she finds out that she is pregnant. She is prepared to do this on her own and isn’t about to accept less than what she deserves.
This is a story of growth for both Rhett and Bea who have insecurities that affect their actions which brings its own complications. The chemistry between them is intense, there are fun times as well as emotional moments as they appreciate each other for who they are scars and all.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, so I log in to a dating app, searching for a guy willing to pretend to be my boyfriend so I can bust out of this overpriced nightmare.
But what do I get? Accused of being a prostitute.
Move on to plan B. Escape. Except, on my way to freedom, I’m nearly pummeled by a man wearing all black and with the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen. When he pretends to be my boyfriend I discover this is the rude guy from the app.
Turns out he’s not only rude but bossy, irritable, and he keeps calling me a walking hazard. I end up back at his place, eating soup and trying hard not to catch feelings.
Then my apartment is broken into, and I’m running for my life, confused, injured, and with nowhere else to go. Kieran vows to keep me safe, and as the threat to my life intensifies, I start to wonder if I’ll make it to my next birthday and, more importantly, if trusting Kieran is the deadliest hazard of all.
