Victoria

The first time he sent me the decapitated head of my enemy, I fell in love.

No, it wasn’t exactly appropriate, but the world is dark and mine is only getting darker.

There’s a secret society seething behind my college’s preppy image—and I want in.

Who better to go to for help than my psychotic suitor, Maxim Lyanov?

The Veronians selected me to be the well-connected future wife of a brother.

I’ll play their games, prove my worth but the only person who’ll decide whose ring I wear is me.

They’re about to learn the hard way that I’m a brat and I’ve already chosen my man.

Cloaked in Maxim’s protection, I, Victoria Vasov, will be the next kingmaker.

Welcome to Oakwood College, Poughkeepsie, NY, where you will catch up with peeps like Shay, Victoria, Sofia, Wynter, Callan and so many new faces!! Classes start this summer!!

🔥Review🔥
There hasn’t been a time that Maxim hasn’t known that Victoria was meant to be his however he also knew for that to happen he needed to be patient. They are now in college when she approaches him as she wants to help out someone she loves and that means joining the secret society. He will help her but he has his own agenda which is claiming her as his own.

Victoria is strong, independent and will do anything for those she loves. She will join the secret society, but she isn’t about to just bend to their will as she will do whatever is required except when it comes to the choice of her husband as she has already chosen Maxim and isn’t about to let anything or anyone stand in their way.

Maxim may be protective and possessive but rather than standing in her way he will support her unconditionally while Victoria has no qualms about doing what is necessary as they take us on a surprising and suspenseful journey that includes a love that may be unconventional but is also unconditional.

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…
🩷age gap

🏒NHL hockey

🩷coach’s daughter

🏒single dad

🩷found family

🏒close proximity

🩷spicy

🏒forbidden

A standalone age-gap, coach’s daughter hockey romance with forbidden tension, single dad heat, and one very inconvenient shower incident.

Working with the Dallas Blaze is supposed to prove I belong in sports medicine.

Not because I’m Coach Davis’s daughter. Because I earned it.

The problem is Hunter Russell. Single dad. Captain. Tattooed, broody, and my father’s close friend.

He’s nine years older, completely off-limits and way too good at pretending he doesn’t want me.

Too bad I’m done pretending I don’t want him.

 Getting involved with Hunter could ruin my future with the team.

 Sneaking around with him could ruin a whole lot more.

But the more he touches me behind closed doors, the less it feels like a mistake. And the more I want the one thing he’s too scared to give me.

All of him.

Theo Williams loved and lost once and isn’t interested in doing it again. He has his family and friends, and plenty of women passing through his new hometown who are happy with a no-strings attached night of passion. Working as a partner at his cousin’s construction company, he’s perfectly content with his life—until he meets Collins Henderson, the one-night stand who will change his world forever.

Collins grew up on the wrong side of her small hometown. Thanks to her parents’ shady schemes, every local knows a Henderson cannot be trusted. She works hard as a paramedic, putting in every extra hour she can to save for a better life. But every time she starts to get ahead, her parents show up to pull her back down. Having one night of passion with a man she doesn’t know is not something she’d normally do, but there was just something about him … And two months later, she finds herself unexpectedly pregnant.

When she runs into the mysterious stranger again, she has to tell him, not because she needs or wants anything from him, just so he knows. But now he’s showing up at her house to cook her meals, stocking her refrigerator, and doing everything he can for her. Collins has always taken care of herself, she wasn’t looking for a relationship, but she can’t deny the chemistry between them.

She knows it’s only a matter of time before he learns who she is and changes his mind. She can’t let herself fall for this guy, but every day he’s getting harder to resist …

Ready for whatever the night brings, I cross the lobby and turn the corner into the bar. My heart stupidly skips a beat when I find Sawyer exactly where he promised he’d be. At the end of the bar, with a glass of iced tea in front of him. Music plays overhead. Sounds like Journey. Maybe “Don’t Stop Believin’”?

And is Sawyer…singing along to it?

Well, air singing, since he’s sort of mouthing the words, drumming out a beat on the counter with his hands.

I smother a smile so I don’t look too giddy when I walk his way. But really, this is a great sign. Would a beheader sing along to Journey? I don’t think so. I march over, eye the stool next to him, and say, “Is this seat taken?”

Sawyer rises, a knowing look in his eyes as he sweeps them up and down me in a shameless tour of my body. But he doesn’t answer my question with words. He answers with actions when he cups my cheek, strokes his thumb down my jawline, then comes in close, dipping his face toward mine. Giving me time to say no.

I don’t. I lift my chin in invitation.

He drops his mouth to mine, and for a few dizzying seconds, the kiss is as slow and sweet as a summer afternoon. It’s hazy and warm as he brushes his lips across mine in a teasing whisper of a kiss.

It’s deliciously unexpected. I’m not used to men knowing their mind, making a plan, and sticking to it. But I think I could get used to it in the kissing department, since this kiss goes straight to my head. And, well, my bikini. I’m aching between my thighs already. I grab the collar of his shirt, twisting my fingers around the material so I can hold on tight.

He kisses me for a few more delirious seconds, that trim beard whisking across my face in a light scratch. When he breaks the kiss, I figure that’s when we’ll sit down, but there’s no reprieve. After his mouth quirks up in a too pleased grin, he rasps out, “Come here, Chloe.”

“I’m here,” I whisper.

“Closer,” he says, hauling me against him before he takes another kiss. This one knocks the breath right out of me. It’s hard, demanding, full of teeth and tongue and desire. He kisses me like he wants to f*&k me. His tongue explores my mouth. One hand grips my face. The other ropes around my waist.

There’s no hesitation from him.

No games.

No dicking around.

I have a feeling that Sawyer is unapologetic. A man who wants what he wants and tonight that’s…me.

About I’VE GOT A CRUSH ON YOU (Coming 7/28/2026):

My secret workplace romance starts innocently enough at a birthday party.

But when a rowdy partier knocks me into a lake and a sexy stranger comes to my rescue – my night becomes one to remember.

A night so steamy I almost forget why I’ve sworn off men after a failed workplace romance.

Trouble is, the brand new doggy daycare in Darling Springs that I’ve contracted with is owned by none other than my sexy stranger. Thanks, fate.

Sawyer turns out to be a total grump in a tailored suit, no matter how sunshine-y I am. Even when he squeezes that hard body past me as I bring donuts to work. Or when he pretends he’s not roaming his dark eyes over me as I teach Fido to sit, stay and come.

But I’m focusing on my shiny new future—my dog-training business is suddenly the hottest thing in town, thanks to a new actress client. And when I’m roped into a charity dance number, I smell an opportunity, especially when I learn my hot landlord has an alter ego and a fandom.

Turns out Mr. Serious Boss is up for dance lessons.

Then the entire Dirty Dancing experience.

Giving into our chemistry once won’t hurt. Two might be pushing it. By the seventh, it’s undeniable–I’ve got a crush on him too.

Walker Rose

Release Date: August 14

Meet Walker Rose:

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).

Blurb:

Lane Foster was supposed to be a potential client—nothing more than the quiet, sinfully attractive co-owner of a Montana distillery. An account big enough to put my brand-new marketing company on Denver’s radar. A simple meeting for a make-or-break pitch.

Instead, it was one night. One explosive kiss. One promise to see him again.

Then I ghosted him.

So imagine my surprise when I return home for my father’s funeral and learn Dad’s final wish: I will inherit my childhood home. But only if I marry Lane Foster first.

Fine. I’ll marry the man. One month. One simple house sale. One emotionless divorce.

Except then he fixes up my father’s old truck without being asked. He makes space for me to work—and for my rapidly growing flock of chickens. He talks to me, touches me, makes me feel things way too much.

To make it worse, the tiny, judgmental town I ran from is welcoming me home.

I’m starting to wonder if my husband really wants a divorce. Or if I do either. What began as a whiskey proposal feels way too neat. But in my experience, that means it’s time to settle up because everything’s about to go sour.

Blurb:

From the time they were kids in Brooklyn, Shotgun knew he was meant to follow Irish everywhere. But living in the shadow of the man who got everything he ever wanted has tested the limits of Shotgun’s loyalty. So when Irish brutally meets his maker, Shotgun’s devotion shatters once and for all.

Stepping up to fill his fallen brother’s shoes, Shotgun accepts his new role as VP of the Kings of Anarchy MC. Then the first in a long line of betrayals begins as Shotgun finds himself drawn to Irish’s overwhelmed widow. Jade is the one woman Shotgun always wanted but could never have, and he can’t stand by and just watch as she and her children drown in their grief.

Heartache pulls Shotgun and Jade together quickly, their connection deepening as they cope with their shared loss. Soon neither can deny that beneath their sadness simmers the potential for a red hot passion. But defying the Kings’ code would be a costly mistake for both of them since Jade still belongs to Irish in the club’s eyes.

As Shotgun wrestles with the decision to face the wrath of his brothers, chaos erupts, and the new VP finds himself face-to-face with a deadly shot at revenge. But surviving means facing the demands of outlaw justice. Will Shotgun finally claim Jade or will their forbidden love also find its way to an early grave?

🏈Protective Hero / Soft-for-Her

🏈Woman in a Male-Dominated Field

🏈They Fall Together

BLURB:

I knew falling for Evangeline Carrington would ruin everything.

I just didn’t know how fast.

She was my twin brother’s girlfriend in college.

But I’d wanted her first.

Gorgeous, sharp-tongued, impossible to ignore, Evangeline is the kind of woman you never really forget. And when I run into her at a teammate’s wedding years later, one dance turns into too many drinks … and one reckless night neither of us can take back.

I try putting distance between us again, but that becomes impossible once Evangeline starts covering my team as a field producer. She’s determined to prove she earned her place, and keeping us a secret is the only way to protect the career she’s fought for.

And I want to keep us a secret because my brother wants her back.

But secrets like ours were never built to survive.

Not with cameras following her every move, looking for a scandal.

Not with my brother suddenly showing up at my games and making a play for my girl.

And definitely not when every stolen touch between us feels less like a mistake … and more like something neither of us is willing to give up.

Because the deeper I fall for Evangeline, the more impossible the decision becomes—choosing my family … or the woman I think was always meant to be mine.

I‘m Knox Sterling. Self-made billionaire. Playboy.

Commitment? Not my style.

Except for Amy. My best friend is the only woman who’s ever been completely off-limits. She’s the one person who’s kept me grounded since the days when my bank account barely covered rent.

The one woman I’ve secretly wanted for years… but never touched.

But after a minor car crash reminds me how quickly life can change, waiting suddenly feels like the worst mistake.

So when Amy asks me to chaperone a school field trip and inspire her students with stories from my career, I say yes without hesitation. Any excuse to spend more time with her.

But the trip doesn’t go as planned. A freak accident leaves us stranded in a small town overnight.

Just the two of us.

One hotel room.

Years of tension finally snapping.

One reckless kiss turns into an unforgettable night.

Falling for my best friend might be the most dangerous move I’ve ever made…

But once I have her in my bed, there’s no way I’m letting her walk away.

Cash

Eight years ago, I left Cameron Falls a screwup.

Now I’m back a changed man and determined to right all my wrongs.

What I don’t expect is running into a challenging blue-eyed, smart-mouthed beauty.

She hates me. I’m intrigued by her.

Could be the scars. Could be the fire.

Hell, could be that sexy scowl she always seems to carry.

Either way, I’m going to infiltrate her heart and chase away the demons lurking in the dark.

Aubrey

My life in Cameron Falls has been a quiet one.

I’ve stayed to myself and focused on taking over the bakery.

That’s until the infuriating man who burned down my grandfather’s barn comes swaggering back into town.

One run-in and he sets his sights on me with the drive to fix what he destroyed.

What I don’t expect is to fall victim to his charming ways and good looks.

He’s just supposed to fix the porch.

Instead, he’s lighting up a dark path.

Sleeping with the enemy wasn’t part of the deal.

Neither was falling for him.

“If we are going to make this believable, there are certain rules that we need to set.”

“I hate rules.”

He chuckles against my ear, making my skin break out in goosebumps.

What the actual fuck is going on here?

“Trust me, I’m aware. But this isn’t a fucking game, Dilynne. And if you can’t agree to that, then I’m out.”

I sigh just as Elliot’s hand moves down my arm to my forearm. My adrenaline spikes. “Fine.”

“Good girl,” he whispers in my ear before releasing me. But those two words hit me right between my thighs.

Dear God. Something is wrong with my vagina.
