King of My Heart 🎧 Now Live on Audio

King of My Heart by Tracey Jerald is now live on audio!

Narrated by: Peter Alden & Adrienne Fleming

His downfall began long before the injury that took him off the ice.

One catastrophic hit during a nationally televised hockey game ends Brennan McCallister’s career. His freedom on the ice, his fame, his identity—gone in seconds. Reeling from the career-ending blow and the crushing media attention that follows, Brennan escapes to a secluded cabin he bought, desperate to find his new normal.

He never expects to find Amy Delgadina there—or realize that seeing her after all these years will shock him worse than the hit that ended everything.

She was once the queen of his heart before an explicit photo of her flooded the internet and shattered the future they planned. Brennan believed the rumors instead of believing in her. He walked away to protect his shot at the pros—and broke her in the process.

Now? He’s moved to her town.

What Brennan doesn’t know is that the photo was taken without her consent—and Amy has the proof.

Amy isn’t the same girl he left behind. This compact ball of fury is one of the youngest and most respected STEM teachers in Oklahoma—a woman who rebuilt her life after erasing her digital shadow. Running into Brennan again feels like reopening a wound she fought hard to close.

Except, the chemistry between them is impossible to ignore.

Amy’s determined to protect the life she fought for. Brennan is determined to uncover the truth he walked away from all those years ago. Yet, every time they clash—emotionally or physically—the pull between them is harder to deny.

But when the source of the photo steps back into their lives, will Brennan choke under pressure or will he win the only game that matters—love?

🎧Review🎧
Amy fell in love with Brennan when they were in college until a devastating event left her resulted in Brennan not only choosing his career over her but wasn’t even willing to listen. In the years since she has created a new life for herself so when he moves to her hometown she is cautious about letting him back into her life.

When an injury ends Brennan’s career he relocates to Amy’s hometown not realizing that she was living there. Seeing her again he realizes that he has always loved her and now he just wants her to know how much he regrets that choice and wants to become the man she has always deserved.

Amy is very forgiving when it comes to the past and Brennan owns his mistakes and is determined to make changes to understand why he did what he did and work for a second chance with Amy. Adrienne Fleming portrays both the strength and emotions while Peter Aiden allows us to the feel the growth of Brennan as he worked to make peace with the past.

🩷Sports Romance

 🤍Forced proximity

🩷Forbidden

🤍 Athlete x Trainer


He is the team’s golden boy who has a broken foot and whose contract expires this year. She is the trainer whose job it is to say no to him, and for the following six months both of them will be unable to leave.

Quinn Abbott has rules. Rule one: the athlete’s health outranks the athlete’s opinion. Rule two: never get attached to a patient. Rule three, written specifically for the San Antonio Outlaws’ star running back: do not, under any circumstances, fall for the smile.

Grant Hale has never met a door that stayed closed to him. Then a broken foot puts his season, his contract, and his entire identity on an exam table, and the trainer running his rehab turns out to be the one person in Texas immune to his charm. She has a clipboard, a timeline, and zero interest in his comeback-of-the-year plans. He has a comeback clock, a stubborn streak, and a growing problem: the best part of his ruined season is the hour a day she spends telling him no.

Every morning, the same training room. Every session, her hands on the injury that could end him. Team flights, hotel treatment tables, a rehab schedule written into his contract and hers. They can’t avoid each other, and it’s starting to show. Falling for your trainer is against the rules. Falling for your patient can end a career. And somewhere between the countdown on the whiteboard and the question he shouldn’t ask, two people who’ve spent their lives carrying everything alone have to learn what it costs to let someone in.

Neither of them stands a chance, and the whole season is watching.


Tropes & tone:

• Slow burn — the wait is the point

• Athlete × athletic trainer, forced proximity (three sessions a week, no escape)

• Forbidden — he’s her patient, and one signature could end her career

• Golden retriever hero who falls first and earns it

• Found family — the Outlaws locker room, opinions included

• Open door · guaranteed HEA · standalone

Book Two of the San Antonio Outlaws series. Each book follows a different couple

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?

🏈Pro Football Romance

🏈Single Mom

🏈Best Friend’s Brother

🏈Meant To Be

🏈Reluctant Love

I built my football career by keeping everyone at a distance. Then I met my sister’s best friend.

For years, winning was the only thing that mattered.

I was the perfect star quarterback. Focused. Controlled. A team player. I smiled for the cameras, kept my head down, and made damn sure the people I loved stayed safely out of reach.

Until my best friend’s bachelor party forced me back into the life I’d left behind.

And there she was. Lily Callahan.

My sister’s best friend. A single mother with a heart too big for her own good. And someone I had absolutely no business wanting.

It started with one conversation while my defenses were down and turned into hours together that replayed in my mind.

Then came the wedding. Christmas. New Year’s. And suddenly, I was finding every excuse to return to the city I’d spent years avoiding.

Except it wasn’t the city pulling me back.

It was Lily.

She makes me want things I gave up on a long time ago. A home. A family. A future beyond football. Even her daughter has become someone I would protect with my life.

But wanting Lily means letting her past my walls. And I know what happens when I let people get too close.

I’m already the reason someone I love got hurt. I won’t risk becoming the mistake that costs Lily and her daughter everything.

But what happens when the woman I’m determined to protect is the one person who makes me want to stop running?

Nikki

It’s not easy to live knowing that your best days are behind you. It’s not easy feeling like you have nothing to live for, even with an amazing, lucrative career and a loving family. It’s damn near impossible to keep breathing when the love of your life chooses your best friend and teammate over you. I barely survived by burying that part of myself, leaving my heartbreak firmly in the past. But when a pre-season trade re-opens old wounds, I’m forced to reconsider everything, because if she’s not happy with him…it might be my chance to ensure that this time, she chooses correctly. And this time she won’t have a choice. 

Blake

The life of a hockey wife isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. When I imploded the best thing that had ever happened to me, I hoped it wouldn’t be for nothing. I hoped there’d be a way to salvage some sort of happiness lying in the bed I’d made. I was worse than wrong, and I’ve paid for it in a million little ways over the last ten years. Now, thrust back into the life of the person I hurt the most, the reality is worse than I expected. It’s not just that I have to see him, looking better than ever, and remember the love that I thought I had imagined. It’s that everything from the past feels like it’s just below the surface, waiting to explode. Every stolen glance, every barely there touch…it’s kindling on a pyre that will destroy everything.

I spent years of my childhood dreaming of the day I’d call Atlas Grant my own.

He was my older brother’s best friend, my protector, my friend, and the guy I had loved for as long as I could remember.

I bided my time, waiting until I was old enough to make my move.

But the moment I finally worked up the courage to tell him how I felt, he shattered my heart without a second thought. 

Since then, I’ve done everything I could to avoid him.

Too bad that’s no longer an option… Because now I’m on a plane to Las Vegas for a combined bachelor and bachelorette weekend. Which means spending the next few days with Atlas is unavoidable.

If I can’t escape him, I’ll settle for making the football superstar regret ever rejecting me.

Eggnog & End Zones 🎄 Cover Reveal

Lisa Suzanne has revealed the cover for Eggnog & End Zones!

Releasing: November 12, 2026

Cover Designer: Qamber Designs

From Amazon Top Ten Bestselling Author Lisa Suzanne comes EGGNOG & END ZONES, a standalone holiday football romance featuring a fake relationship with her best friend’s ex, a golden retriever hero and his adorable dog, and a schoolteacher immune to his charms.

Of course the man who ruins my holiday side hustle is my best friend’s ex.

Clay Mack is a star wide receiver, a notorious playboy, and the last man I’d ever fall for. He sees me as nothing more than an uptight, wholesome schoolteacher. I see him as a charming heartbreaker who coasts through life on his good looks alone.

After he accidentally gets me fired, he offers me a new job as his holiday assistant. He needs help wrapping gifts, planning parties, and transforming his bachelor pad into a Christmas wonderland. Since I love everything about the holidays except eggnog, it’s an immediate yes from me.

And then he needs one more favor: pretend to be his girlfriend at his brother’s wedding two weeks before Christmas.

It’s supposed to be fake. It’s just a paycheck. Except the more time I spend with Clay, the harder it is to ignore the man behind the reputation. The generous one, the thoughtful one, the one who decorates cookies for my students and loves his golden retriever almost as much as he loves football.

He isn’t the playboy I thought he was, but he’s still my best friend’s ex. He’s still completely off limits.

But the cozy little cottage we’re sharing for his brother’s wedding…

It only has one bed.

Off the Post by Sierra Hill is now live!

Her sunshine is a game winning shot against this grumpy goalie.

What fans don’t know about Vikings’ goalie Soren ‘the Wolf’ Wolfenspiel is that he hides behind the mask of grumpy loner to protect himself from the pain of emotional connection.

That way, he won’t get hurt again.

But then he meets his teammate’s sister, Ali St. Francis.

Ali’s move to Vancouver to work for her brother’s foundation is her new lease on life. She wants to bury herself in her new job and forget about the mistakes of her past.

When she recruits her brother’s teammates to raise money using their celebrity status, she finds herself engaging the reluctant and enigmatic goalie to participate.

It doesn’t take long for Ali’s sunshine in a bottle to melt the icy veneer of the goalie.

But will their casual (and secret) fling threaten to turn into something more and snare this lone wolf in his very own net?

Needing to distance herself from the situation Ali found herself in and the person who caused it she goes to the place where she feels safe which is with her brother. She is happy to be near him and determined to show her that he didn’t make a mistake by hiring her and that includes not getting personally involved with his teammates.

Wolf is the goaltender for the Vancouver Vikings who has distanced himself from everyone in his life due to his past. When he meets Ali she him feeling emotions he never expected or wanted to feel again however and feeling them for his teammate’s sister is the definition of complicated.

Wolf and Ali take us on an emotional ride as they are both going through a tumultuous time in their life. The chemistry and connection were never in doubt and seeing Wolf let Ali into his life was what made their relationship so special.

One More Goal is a fake dating, opposites attract romance…

As the newest forward for the Jacksonville Mud Hens, I’m determined to make a name for myself.

But it’s not easy. I stumble my way through interviews and choke when there are lights and cameras in my face. When the fans get a little too friendly, I freeze up. My public persona is taking a nosedive and my rookie season has just begun.

The solution? A fake relationship. Apparently, a girlfriend will make me look more approachable, and she’ll have no trouble telling fans to keep their hands off her man.

My team and my publicist think they’ve found the perfect person for the job. She’s a figure skater. She’s gorgeous. And her reputation could use a little rehab, too.

But she’s no stranger. I already know Emersyn Zabek. How could I forget being snowed in with the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen? How could I forget losing my virginity to her?

Now that I think about it, I couldn’t have asked for a better fake girlfriend.

My feelings for Em are far from fake.  They’re heating up as the days go by. And when her safety is threatened, there’s nothing I won’t do to keep her out of harm’s way.

One More Goal is the first book in the Dirty Puckers Book Club pro hockey series and it can be enjoyed as a standalone. If you love sassy heroines, stoic heroes, and enough steam to melt your Kindle, then Leo and Emersyn are the perfect couple for you!

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.

Blurb:

I’m supposed to be taking a break.

After five years of writing contemporary romance on a relentless release schedule, I’m burned out. My last two books have barely made a ripple, and for the first time in my career, I’m not sure I have another love story in me. So when my agent offers me a secluded stay at the luxurious Belicourt Resort in the Teton Mountains, I’m ready to say yes.

The resort’s general manager, Porter Garrison, wants me to write the story of the Belicourt’s most famous resident: The Lady in Red, a mysterious spirit who has supposedly haunted the hotel for decades. But the project offers something more—a chance to step outside my genre and create an entirely new series. Maybe it’s exactly what I need to fall in love with writing again.

Then Gaige Keaver gets in the way.

The ridiculously sexy ski instructor has a habit of appearing whenever I’m trying to work—and making it nearly impossible to remember why I swore off men, romance, and happily-ever-afters. And the Lady in Red seems determined to meddle in my life, too, leaving clues to her own mysterious past and somehow nudging Gaige and me closer together.

Soon, I’m not sure whether I’m writing the Lady in Red’s love story…or living one of my own.

Maybe I came to the Belicourt to find my next story.

Maybe I came to find my happily-ever-after.

❄️ Opposites Attract

🍪 ‘Just Casual’

❄️ Spicy RomCom

As a single mom, the holidays are chaos on another level. Working two jobs, running a cookie business, and trying to keep Christmas magical for my seven-year-old son is exhausting on a good day. So, I’m not sure why I thought I’d add dating to my never-ending to-do list. 

My date is a disaster, but the charming Brit playing piano at the bar—and later flirting with me over a pool table? Not so much.  

One reckless night with Beck Hargrove feels harmless. 

Until I run into him the next day at my son’s Winter Fest workshop and our one-night fling becomes a lot more complicated. 

Now the PTA moms think we’re together, my son is obsessed with him, and the ridiculously charming British man I was supposed to forget keeps showing up in all the worst places—my kitchen, my holiday plans, and very much in my head.

The more he helps with Winter Fest, charms everyone in Cedar Hollow, and looks at me like my messy life is something he actually wants, the harder it is to remember he won’t be staying. 

But Beck is always chasing his next adventure. 

And I can’t afford to fall for a man who’s only here for the holidays, no matter how much he’s starting to feel like he belongs.

Aria Bad is a tattooist who’s mastered the art of hiding in plain sight. Her art is her only safe place. Crowded rooms make her panic. People’s eyes burn too hot. Except his. Zeke Wicked has been the steady presence she’s leaned on since he tutored her through high school. He’s a loyal, protective Dark Knight biker, the kind of man who sees everything and the one man who could unravel her without even trying. Every year he takes her to see her family for the holidays, but this year she’s harboring a secret and needs to go alone.

Years ago, Zeke swore to protect, and never touch, Aria Bad, but that didn’t stop his heart from staking claim to her. Lately she’s been secretive and has been pulling away, and now she’s determined to make their annual trip without him, but his instincts won’t let her go alone. When a storm strands them, boundaries blur and buried feelings rise to the surface, unearthing a passion neither can deny. But as the storm clears, they discover two dangerous truths—one that ties them together and one that threatens to tear them apart.

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.

The first time Courtland Navarro saw Charleigh Lynn Kensington, she was yelling at her old boss about a yeast infection.

Court didn’t know that his heart could even beat after the loss of his late wife, but in that moment, when she was yelling about a bladder infection from hell, he realized that maybe he hadn’t died inside after all.
The second time he saw her, he was protecting her from herself.
The big—actually quite small—bad—more like a pissed-off Chihuahua—Marine thought she could handle herself. And honestly, she might have been able to. But she was five-foot-nothing, had crazy blonde hair, and looked like one hell of an easy target.
To say that they got off on the wrong foot would be an understatement.
Then, searching for something to do with his life after getting out of prison, he finds a mechanic shop for sale. So he buys it.
Little did he know that Charleigh had wanted that shop.
And now she had even more reason to hate him.
She tries her hardest to hold on to the anger, the utter dislike of all things Court Navarro. But Charleigh doesn’t stand a chance.
Court has set his sights on her, and there’s nothing that she can do but surrender.
But, maybe, that was what she wanted all along.
Someone to fight for her.

🩵Review🩵

Court has a tragic past and instead of being able to grieve his loss he was found guilty of a crime he wasn’t responsible for and was ostracized by those who should have supported him. Now that his charges have been overturned he moved to Montana and has taken a control position in a woman’s soccer team and a men’s football team to help out Beau, a friend, by ensuring that his toxic sister doesn’t destroy them.

About MISTLETOE ALL THE WAY (Now Available):

She wants to make him Mr. Holiday. He wants to stay a certified Grinch. From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely comes a small-town spicy holiday romance about a guarded cowboy veterinarian and a Christmas-loving optimist who team up for a town holiday competition.

Dr. Noah Lennox lives by three holiday rules—avoid his hometown, cheerful people, and Christmas itself.

But when his beloved grandfather announces he’s retiring and handing the cherished sleigh-ride farm to either Noah or his slick cousin Stephen, the first rule goes out the window. Back home in Evergreen Falls, the veterinarian vows to fight for the farm that means everything to him. The problem is, the town doesn’t exactly welcome its resident Scrooge with open arms.

Except for one very charming holiday enthusiast. Eloise Langston, a sunny tourism bureau hopeful, needs a win to land her dream job—and to pay the rent. Her holly jolly plan? Turn the broody, broad-shouldered grump into a festive front-runner to help the town’s Mr. Holiday Competition draw record crowds.

Transforming a camera-shy cowboy vet into a small-town sweetheart isn’t exactly in her job description—but neither is falling for him.

Soon, Noah and Eloise find themselves tangled in twinkle lights, fake kisses, and one very real attraction. But with the farm’s future at stake, Stephen’s scheming, and Eloise’s career on the line, there’s a blizzard of reasons to put their feelings on ice.

Or will they fight to turn their holiday fling into forever under the mistletoe?

Release Day Excerpt:

I catch a glimpse of green and red above us.

I arch a brow. “What is that?”

“It’s called mistletoe. You hang it for the holidays.”

I lower my gaze to meet her eyes. “I know that. I meant when—” I circle back to earlier in the evening. “When you disappeared down the hallway. You were hanging mistletoe?”

“And this surprises you?” She smiles without an ounce of guilt.

“You’re right. I should have assumed.”

“I hung it in all the doorways,” she stage-whispers.

“Just what I always wanted,” I say dryly.

“Once I leave in the morning, it’ll keep you in the holiday spirit. Just like the tree. Since I can’t be here to keep you festive.”

Shame, that.

“So the mistletoe is your proxy?” I ask.

“Maybe. Mistletoe is festive, and Mr. Holiday should be festive.”

I set my hand on the doorjamb, leaning against it. “So you thought a sneak attack with mistletoe would help me get in the Christmas spirit?”

She drags her teeth across her lower lip, and holy f*&k. That’s too sexy. Too inviting. I stare too long.

“It wouldn’t hurt you to practice being festive,” she says with a bob of her shoulder. “It’s important.”

I swallow roughly. Glance at the lounge pants in my other hand. Check out the mistletoe again. Then I look back at her, standing here, chin raised, looking like . . . Ah, f*&k it.

I toss the pants to the bed. They land on the edge of the mattress. “Is kissing under the mistletoe festive?”

Her blue and green eyes flicker with anticipation. “I don’t know. Is it?” It’s a volley of a question.

I keep playing. “Should I find out?”

When she licks her lips, everything in me stirs. “For the sake of the season,” she says, and a jolt of excitement shoots down my spine.

F*&k it, indeed.
