❤️Review❤️ After his wife passed away Joel has been focused on giving his daughters everything they need. While attending parent-teacher interviews he is drawn to Brooke, one of his daughter’s teachers, not only because of the way she makes him feel but also because of the way she relates to his daughter.
Due to her father being in the military Brooke has never settled in one place for long and she believes that this teaching assignment will be the same. She can’t deny the attraction she feels for Joel and is conflicted about his being a chaperone on the trip she is planning for her students however as events unfold there is no one she would have by her side.
This is a story about family, healing and new beginnings as Jole and Brooke were a surprise that neither saw coming but was meant to be.
For three years, I’ve resided in Alabaster Penitentiary. Surrounded by the same faces day in and day out, the deranged souls I now call my friends. We eat our meals together, shower together… Hell, we even fool around on occasion.
Still, after all that, not one of them truly knows me.
It’s my fault. I’m a withdrawn hoarder of secrets. A shadowman, dwelling on the sidelines, damned to this pit of despair for reasons I still can’t accept.
Being the outsider in a group of weirdos isn’t always fun. After all, if no one sees me, do I even exist?
Okay, let’s not go there.
I’m resenting my permanent sidekick status when a distraction arrives. A newcomer—tall, mysterious, and severely beautiful, with black hair and violet eyes. His abrupt arrival has my prison pals suspicious. But not me. I’m instantly intrigued by that peculiar gaze, following me like nothing has before.
He actually sees me. And it’s intoxicating.
Trevel Fenwick could be an ally. Maybe he could be… more.
My body sure seems to think so. But the brighter he lights me up, the deeper he slips into the shadows himself.
What is this striking stranger hiding behind that charming accent and penetrating stare? Why is his need to seek revenge so strong? And can we fight past our demons enough to become real partners in crime?
When a brutal storm ravages Alabaster Isle, we’re left sifting through the rubble. The fences are down. Stress cracks in the foundation, secrets escape, fragile loyalties tested. But the war is far from over…
I built a life without Massimo Manetti. Married the wrong man. Raised my son in silence. And buried the truth so deep even I almost believed it didn’t matter.
Then my world was torn apart.
My son and husband were taken.
And the only man powerful enough to get them back is the one who never knew he was a father.
Massimo rules Las Vegas with blood and control. He’s ruthless. Possessive. Dangerous. And he’s demanding answers I’m not sure I’m ready to give.
Because saving my child means trusting the man I never stopped loving.
I won’t beg.
I won’t break.
And I won’t lose my son.
As enemies close in and old betrayals surface, I have to decide if giving Massimo the truth will save us… or destroy everything.
Merciless Sinner is a dark mafia romance featuring second-chance love, a secret baby, forced proximity, a powerful antihero, and a heroine who refuses to kneel.
* For readers who like their romance dangerous and possessive—with a hard-won HEA.

Dean knows it’s time to do something to win her back and have his family all under the same roof, and it needs to be drastic.
With a scheme in play, he will stop at nothing to get his girl back.
An OTT, sexy & sweet second-chance romance read that will have you swooning.
Harlow James is a pen name I use to protect my identity as a high school teacher. Keeping those two roles in my life separate is necessary, but also fun! It’s like a live two lives, and anonymity gives me the opportunity to be bold and take risks in my stories.
I stumbled upon romance novels in 2018 when I picked up Driven by Kristy Bromberg, and I was obsessed. I had just lost my grandmother too, so reading offered me an escape from reality and a chance to grieve on my own terms.
About a year later, I got an idea for my own book and started writing. I researched self-publishing and jumped in with both feet. I had no idea what I was doing!
But now I’ve built a business and hobby that I LOVE! I have an outlet that’s just for me. When I write, I’m not a mom, a wife, or a teacher…I’m a woman who gets to tell stories that no one else can.
My books are the perfect blend of heartwarming moments, full-bellied laughs, and PLENTY of steam to melt your Kindles 😉 And there are always elements of me sprinkled in to every character and story that I write.
When I’m not writing you can find me reading or spending time in my kitchen. I love to cook and feed my family and friends. Otherwise, you can find me watching comedy specials with my husband, camping with our kids, or taking naps. I live for naps 😉
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.
💚Review💚 Vienna has come to Blossom Peak needing a fresh start as she tries to not only distance herself from her ex but deal with an event that left a huge hole in her life. She never expected to see Rhonan again, so finding out his daughter Ellis was her student was a surprise but finding out he is her neighbor was an even bigger surprise.
Rhonan is still feeling the loss of his wife and is a devoted single father to his daughter Ellis. Even though he didn’t know it he originally met Vienna at a club and she was the first woman to make him feel since his wife. The connection that he and Ellis feel for her was unexpected but the more they spend together the deeper the feelings become however the past is about to return with a vengeance.
The banter between them is humorous, the romance is heartwarming, the relationship that both Vienna and Rhonan share is heartwarming, and the secondary characters make this story even more special. Aiden Snow brings out the protective side of Rhonan when it comes to both his girls while Ava Erickson brings out the spunky side of Vienna even after all that she has been through.
They’ve made it through the Iron Dungeon but not without a heavy cost, mentally and spiritually, for Jeb. His madness once again flared up, instigated by the revelation some of his soldiers have been pulled into the Crucible of War, and yet, they still have no clue where humanity will land, in which deranged City they will be shoved into, and if it is not Blood City, how they will get to them?
One thing is sure, Jeb would never abandon his Soldiers but they have far more on their plate than just humanity as they exit the Dungeon into the still waiting teeth of Greenskins looking to end them. They are also joined by some crazy Blood-elf Woman with questionable motives but they have no time to figure it out when blood is in the offing and the Emporium’s gates are in sight. Jeb struggles hard to think clearly with all that has happened, the guilt eating his soul along with the PTSD for the use and abuse he subjected his Boy to against the final Boss.

I wasn’t supposed to notice her.
The girl behind the bar with a guarded smile has something in her eyes that pulls me in. The one who insists she doesn’t need protecting—even after I watch them threaten her right in front of me.
Brinley isn’t just a risk. She’s a secret that certain people don’t want getting out.
I knew she was my head coach’s daughter. What I didn’t understand was why no one else did.
I’ve spent my whole life building a name on the ice. Now I’m being warned to stay away from her or risk losing everything I’ve worked for.
And the pressure doesn’t just come from the bench. The threats aren’t subtle anymore—stopping at nothing until she leaves town. They expect me to fall in line, focus on blocking shots, keep my mouth shut, and choose my career over her.
But they’re wrong.
Because this time, I’m not just protecting the net.
I’m protecting her. And the truth they’ll do anything to keep silent.

The content is the same as the original Jason Clarke and Mackenzie Cartwright dual-narrated version, which is still available. Jason Clarke sings all of the song lyrics in this multicast version and he plays guitar for most of the songs.
Charmer is a standalone story, but if you listen to SLEEPER: The Palisades Edition first you’ll be familiar with most of the characters.
NICO
She serves me coffee late at night when I come around to write lyrics, but it’s not the caffeine I’ve gotten addicted to.
We’ve got the spark, but she’s the only woman in town who seems to be immune to my charms.
When it’s time for me to leave for my cross-country tour, I just can’t imagine not seeing her for months.
So I offer her a job on the road with me.
KAT
Everyone in LA knows that Nico Todd has a way with songs and with the ladies.
What he doesn’t know is that I would love to let him have his way with me.
But my life can only revolve around one infuriatingly cute guy—the six-year-old that I live with.
Imagine my surprise when Nico finds out about my little boy and tells me to bring him and my mom on the road too.
And imagine Nico’s surprise when he realizes my son is the biggest charmer of them all.
Their secret fake relationship began with a little white lie…
Nora
My ginger beer brewery is, quite literally, my life. Unfortunately, I’m about to lose it. My male business partner’s new fiancée is insanely jealous, and it’s only a matter of time before she forces him to quit.
So I ask him what it’ll take for her to back down.
A boyfriend.
I make one up, telling her it’s too early to introduce him, which works up until she walks in on a heated private conversation between me and Cormac, my soon-to-be stepbrother.
She comes to a wild conclusion: the reason I’ve been keeping my boyfriend secret is because it’s him.
I should definitely set her straight. Cormac is the last person I’d ever date, and not just because our parents are about to get married. I’ve known him since high school, and he’s awkward, introverted, and has the people skills of a houseplant.
But I’m desperate enough to tell the worst lie ever.
Cormac
Nora begs me to be her secret fake boyfriend–an act that only has to work on two people.
Any sane man would refuse, but I’ve promised my father to make peace with her. So I present her with an offer: dog sit my corgi for a weekend, and I’ll be the fake boyfriend of your dreams.
She accepts quickly, because she’s never met my dog.
There’s only one problem: I had a huge crush on Nora in high school, and the more time we spend together, the more I realize it never went away.

As the daughter of the head of the Thorpe Syndicate, my life was decided for me from the beginning. I was expected to look a certain way. Act a certain way. To put the syndicate above my own desires. To marry the son of the head of another crime family in a deal brokered by my father.
The night my arranged betrothal was announced was when everything changed.
My brother’s best friend chased me into the woods and stole my first kiss.
Now, my engagement is drawing closer. I’m doing my best to survive one day at a time, keeping my head down while I attend classes at Cranham University, a former Victorian prison and home of the Cranham Kings hockey team.
But he’s there, a constant reminder of what happened in the woods. His hateful gaze tracks me in the hallways and the lecture halls. I loathe him. Yet when he’s flying across the ice with his teammates, I can’t help but notice him.
And the way he makes me feel? That’s a secret I’ll take to the grave.
Tensions are rising. Something is brewing, and my family risks being caught up in it all. I don’t know who I can trust, and as for Jay?
He’s a complication I can’t afford, because the consequences would be devastating for us all.
