“I haven’t been your Lennon since high school, Easton. That’s what you wanted, remember?”

“I never wanted that,” he fires back, reaching up to cup my jaw. I wait for him to elaborate further, but he doesn’t, leaving the words hanging between us.

“How are we supposed to go from barely talking to being married, and make it believable?”

“We have history, Lennon. Everyone in town grew up watching us together. Is it really so hard to believe we might find our way back to each other? We can tell everyone that the baby is mine. It’s the perfect story. Plus, having a baby on the way would only strengthen my case for wanting to stay local for work.”

Hearing him say these words is making me grow emotional because I never imagined him being the one to come up with an idea like this. And of course, I miss our friendship too. The closest we got back to that was after my father’s heart attack, but then he left again and the distance he worked so hard to put between us returned.

Uh, you played a part in that distance too, Lennon. Remember?

“I—I need to think about this,” I manage to reply just as his hand drops from my jaw.

Nodding, he takes a step back, but the softness in the lines of his face remain. “Okay. But don’t take too long, please. My boss wants me to leave on Monday.”

“You want me to decide something like this that soon?”

“I don’t really know why you need to think about it, but yes, I need an answer tomorrow.”

I shake my head. “You’re insane.”
“No, I’m just a man, standing in front of a woman, asking her to marry me so I can take care of her.”

Someone has been watching her for years.

And now that Antonio stands in their way, watching is no longer enough.


Sunny Rivers may be adored by millions, but fame has never given her the one thing she has always wanted—a place to belong.

When her television series moves production to Hawthorn’s Hope Ranch, she finds herself surrounded by the friends who have become her family…and face-to-face with Antonio Morosini, the man who shattered her heart.

Antonio walked away from the violence of his past and built a life in Montana on his own terms. Falling for Sunny was never part of his plan. Neither was leaving her. But when a hidden enemy begins dismantling his carefully controlled world, Antonio pushes her away, believing distance is the only way to keep her safe.

He was wrong.

Now Antonio is determined to uncover who is targeting them and repair the damage he caused. But someone has already slipped past every safeguard.

Dark roses appear with cryptic warnings. Private moments are watched. Every secret becomes another move in a game neither Sunny nor Antonio realizes they are playing.

As old betrayals surface and the danger closes in, Antonio must confront the past he tried to bury, and Sunny must decide whether she can trust the man who broke her heart not to break it again.

Because someone has been watching Sunny for years.

And they have no intention of letting anyone stand between them.

Crash Course 🏁 Now Live

Crash Course by Piper Lawson is now live!

A spicy, angsty, slow-burn F1 academy romance about fast cars, forbidden attraction, and family secrets from USA Today bestselling author Piper Lawson.

Shay MacDonald was raised to avoid two things: race cars and the Ashford family. But when an injury puts her mechanic father on bedrest, she vows to save his career by covertly covering his shifts at the Ashford garage and enrolling at Ashford Academy—an elite school that trains aspiring drivers and engineers, like herself, for the lucrative F1 circuit.

Keeping a low profile is out of the question when she has a run-in with the Ashford brothers on day one. Theo and Jameson are racing royalty who know they can get away with anything. Theo, the charming and reckless playboy, tempts her to break every rule, while Jameson, the brilliant prodigy, unsettles her with a cold intensity that cuts deeper than she expects.

Shay will always be the adopted daughter of a mechanic, trying to survive unnoticed in a world that was never meant for her. But Theo and Jameson’s only reprieve from their father’s sky-high expectations is Shay. She’s a shiny new pawn in their old rivalry—or a prize worth risking everything for.

When a competition to work on the F1 circuit brings her further into their orbit, Shay is forced to work harder to protect her secrets. But the deeper she’s pulled into the world of the rich and famous Ashfords, the more she realizes everyone is keeping secrets.

Secrets that could shatter her past, her future…and her heart.

🏁Review🏁
When her father is injured Shay is torn between working at the garage so he doesn’t lose his job and trying to train so that she can fulfill her dream of driving professionally. What she doesn’t need is the added complication of Theo and Jameson who are two brothers whose personalities couldn’t be more distinct who both bring something different into her life.

Theo is carefree and always see the fun in every situation which is exactly what Shay needs as she tries to balance her responsibilities and Jameson who is intriguing yet closed off. They both bring something different in her lives however she doesn’t want to hurt either one of them or get caught in the crossfire in their fight to win her heart.

This story is filled with emotional angst, life changing choices and a decision that will impact all their lives. There is so much more to each of these characters than first appears and I enjoyed learning who they truly were and what motivated them as well seeing Shay find the man she was destined to be with.

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…

⚾️age gap

🩷friends to lovers

⚾️she falls first

🩷he falls harder

⚾️she had his poster on her wall

🩷viral scandal

⚾️baseball player/reporter

🩷secret relationship

⚾️coach’s little sister (in law)

I used to have a Nate Becker poster on my wall. Now I have to save his career.

Ever since Nate Becker showed up as the Brooklyn Bats’ shortstop with the million-dollar smile, he’s been the object of every girl’s affection. Myself included.

While others got to watch him from afar, I had an up-close-and-personal view of my lifelong crush, thanks to the benefits of being related to the team manager. We even became friends, although the butterflies in my stomach whenever he was close never went away.

But things are different now. I’m no longer that swooning teenager. I’m a sports reporter determined to make it on my own. And not because of who my family is.

Until a viral photo threatens Nate’s legendary career, turning the golden boy of Brooklyn into public enemy number one. Now he needs positive PR in the worst way, and I’m the one the Bats call on to make that happen.

My job was simple: Fix the narrative. Don’t fall in love.

Easier said than done.

I wasn’t prepared to learn about the humble man behind the cocky grin, or see all the good he did when no one was looking. And I definitely wasn’t prepared to meet the real Nate Becker…and discover the heart of gold that beats inside that broad chest.

The man now looking at me the way I always dreamed of.

Suddenly, professional distance turns into stolen moments. A simple touch turns into a caress. And our scorching kisses are undeniably life changing.

Giving in could cost us everything.

Too bad we can’t help ourselves.

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…

🏍️ motorcycle club romance

☀️ golden retriever biker x brilliant scientist

🔥 opposites attract

🧠 social butterfly x socially awkward

🤠 he calls her Indy

🛏️ forced proximity

💘 he falls first

❤️ acts of service as a love language

The happiest biker falls for the most academically brilliant, socially awkward woman he’s ever met in this electrifying small-town, opposites-attract romance from USA Today bestselling author Scarlett Cole, writing as S. Cole.

SUNNY

I thought my job was protecting the men who ride beside me.

Then I met the brilliant, socially awkward Dr. Della Hart.

She’s the smartest person I’ve ever known. She can explain why alligators are ecological engineers, identify a bird by its call, and somehow make a patch of mud sound like the most important place on Earth.

Me?

I once tried to microwave a Pop-Tart still in the wrapper.

While Della notices every bird, every flower, and every tiny change in the water that tells her someone is poisoning an entire ecosystem, she doesn’t notice the men following her, or the ones lying to her.

Good thing I do.

She says she doesn’t need protecting.

That’s cute.

Because somewhere between making her laugh, listening to her passionately explain why wetlands are worth saving, and watching her fight for a place everyone else has forgotten, she became my favourite person.

Everyone thinks I’m the funny one, the laid back one, and they’re right.

Until they come after Della and give me a reason to show them who I really am.

Author: Jessica Buss

Release Date: October 19, 2026
Cover Design: 907 Publishing, LLC


Destined to be together, an extremely driven neurosurgeon and a smiley dental hygienist have their meet-cute in her ICU room after she undergoes a craniotomy. At first glance, the attraction he feels for her is unmistakable. They share a connection that’s more than just physical. Thankfully, she isn’t his patient.
After several chance run-ins, Grayson learns how incredible Kaitlyn is. She’s not like anyone else he’s ever met. From their first kiss, he knows one thing: what’s happening between them is something special. He wants more, but does she feel the same?
Kaitlyn knows Dr. Grayson Michaels is different, but to her, pursuing something with him rides the line of being taboo. He works with her doctor, but that fact doesn’t diminish her excitement when he asks her out. The chemistry between them is stifling, and stretches beyond anything cellular. She wants to explore it, but will he?





“Their story wrecked me in the best possible way. Their romance will live in your heart long after you read the last page.” ~ Lorey Loves to Read

“Couldn’t put this book down. Loved every second.” ~ Goodreads/DG

“There were scenes that made me smile, and others where I was literally holding my breath because I needed to know what happened next. It was nice to read a story that didn’t take that predictable turns if you know what I mean 😉 Would absolutely recommend reading this one! If you enjoy small-town romance, medical, emotional storytelling, and a story that grabs you from the very beginning, definitely add this to your TBR!” ~ GoodReads/Stephanie






HOSTED BY:

🩺Review🩺
Kaitlyn meets Grayson during the most challenging time in her life when she is diagnosed with a brain tumor and she finds herself in the hospital where he is covering for her doctor. Despite everything that she is going through, her positive outlook and perseverance are inspiring and when their paths keep crossing, she can’t help but wonder if they are destined to be more.

Grayson is dedicated to his career and his patients but from his first meeting with Kaitlyn he knows that she is special. He is drawn to her in a way that he can’t deny even if the circumstances that brought them together weren’t ideal. He shows her with his attentiveness that he wants to experience everything that life has to offer with her.

This story is both heart wrenching and heartwarming. The emotional impact is impactful and will draw you in but there is also a lighter aspect when it comes to their relationship that will bring a smile to your face. The romance between Kaitlyn and Grayson and their journey is a story you won’t soon forget.

Blurb:

One night with a beautiful stranger is supposed to be exactly what I need to forget that my NFL career is hanging on by a thread. No last names, no strings, no expectations. Just two people having a little fun before going their separate ways.

At least, that’s the plan.

Problem number one. I definitely want more.
Problem number two. She disappears before the sun.
Problem number three. I can’t stop thinking about her.

Surely the universe is done with me now.
The universe: Bet.
Because the woman of my dreams is my coach’s daughter, who I absolutely can’t have.

Pretending our night together never happened is probably the smartest thing either of us could do, but I’ve never been good at walking away from something I want.

And I absolutely want her.

Jubal is a professional quarterback who has just been traded from the team he spent the last decade with to Charlotte. He knows that the transition will be difficult enough but finding out that Calliope, the woman he spent an unforgettable night with, is the coach’s daughter is a complication of the best kind.

On the night that Calliope spent with Jubal she received some news that could derail her dreams for the future. She never expected to see Jubal again let along that he would be playing for the team her dad’s coaches. She knows that there are so many reasons that they should be keeping their distance however the more time they spend together the more difficult that becomes.

Jubal knew that Calliope was his end game and he wasn’t about to be deterred by all the challenges that they had to overcome. The forbidden aspect of this romance only made the connection between them stronger as they take us on a journey that balances humor, heat and heart.

💍Small Town

🌼Accidental Pregnancy

💍Marriage of Convenience

🌼Not His Baby

💍It’s Always Been You

🌼Friends to Lovers

💍Forced Proximity

He’s my former best friend and my husband of convenience, but he’s not the man that got me pregnant.

One year into my nursing program, two little pink lines alter my reality.

Add on that the baby’s father wants nothing to do with us and I no longer have healthcare coverage, and well?

I start to panic.

Enter Easton Buckley—Mr. Dependable, lineman with great health benefits, and a stubborn streak that pays off when he convinces me to marry him so my baby and I can be taken care of.

The problem is, Easton and I haven’t been on good terms for years, and neither of us has attempted to fix it.

Yet now I’m living with him, forced to see him shirtless, and wondering why hearing him call me his wife is making my hormones even more wild.

Then I figure out his secret.

And there’s no stopping the flood of emotions and unresolved feelings that come up.

I’m scared to fall for Easton. I don’t want him to be a mistake like every other love interest in my life.

But what if the reality is, you can’t help who your heart chooses to love? Even if they could be the one to break it once and for all?

Now she’s everywhere. In the stands. At team dinners. Under my skin.

When Cash entered the bar all he wanted was to forget the betrayal he had experienced at the hands of his now ex-wife and his now ex-best friend.   He is immediately drawn to Maya and her spunky personality, and they spend an unforgettable night together however she is gone before he wakes up the next day.

Maya’s career as a costume designer is on the rise and her next assignment has her working from Atlanta where she will be staying with her brother.   Shortly after arriving she reunites with Cash when she finds out he is a teammate of her brother’s.   Even though the chemistry and connection between them is stronger than ever however she isn’t certain that he will be able to overcome the pain of the past.

Maya is vibrant, free-spirited and exactly who Cash needs in his life.   Despite the challenges they face both personally and professionally when it really matters and their love is tested it shows how strong their relationship truly is.

Brighter Than the Stars 💙 Now Live

Brighter Than the Stars by Elizabeth O’Roark is now live!

I was raised to believe the danger lived outside our walls. And Ford James looked like the most dangerous thing of all.

I’ve spent my entire life inside Bright Covenant — a religious community with rules for everything, a place where questions aren’t allowed. When my family is sent to heal Westside, a small Florida beach town, I arrive certain of two things: the world outside is exactly as dangerous as I was warned, and Ford James — who vandalized our home before we’d even unpacked — is proof.

He’s the reason I had to leave home during my final year of school. He’s the reason half the senior class wants me gone. But he also makes me question everything I know, and want things I’ve never wanted before—things I’m meant to save for my husband.

Come June, I board a plane to Bolivia, and will return engaged to a member of Bright Covenant.

Which means I have one year to decide if Ford James is really the villain. Or worth burning my world down for.

Trigger warning: assault and bullying. For additional details, see my website.

💙Review💙
Grace was being raised in a strict religious household and has always done what was expected of her as she had been warned against the damage that those that don’t understand could cause. When her family moves to Penhallow it is her mindset that she will endure the next year and then move forward with the plans that were previously mad. It doesn’t take long for her to realize how stifling and sheltered her life has been and that hold especially true for Ford.

Ford’s reputation should be enough to ensure that Grace keeps her distance however he can’t deny how intrigued he is by her. She is his complete opposite however he is able to see her and her situation in a way she hasn’t yet realized and soon his animosity for her turns into a need to show her that she can trust him with her truths and he will support her as she transforms from a moth to the butterfly she is meant to be.

This is an emotionally riveting tale of growth, independence and love. Grace’s strength and bravery is inspiring as she is forced to challenge everything she has always believed even if it causes pain to those she loves the most and Ford is there every step of the way not to lead her but to be there for her as she faces an uncertain future.
