KNOX UNLEASHED

Iron Outlaws MC #1

S. Cole

Release Date: June 4

Meet S. Cole:

Scarlett Cole is a contemporary romance and romantic suspense author who calls both Toronto, Canada and Manchester, England home. A born city dweller, she periodically quashes the urge to live in the country by hiking up a mountain to remind herself that living away from people would terrify the pants off her.

She believes everybody deserves their love story to be told and loves her heroes on the rough and rugged side…and usually tall (because she married one of those 6ft 6” men you read about in romance!). She’s an A-type personality and Scorpio star sign, so good luck getting her to do anything she doesn’t want to.

When she isn’t writing, she’s happy to talk hot men and expensive shoes while drinking a cold gin and tonic. Don’t bring up olives. As far as Scarlett is concerned, they are the devil’s food. As long as you don’t bring up olives, she’s happy to hear from any time.

USA Today bestselling author Scarlett Cole, writing as S. Cole, delivers an electrifying small-town, enemies-to-lovers, age-gap romance set deep in the Florida Everglades.

MAREN

Everyone in Gator Flats knows Knox.

They know the sound of his bike rolling through the swamp. The way men step aside when he walks into a room. And they know my father shot his brother and somehow kept his badge.

I should hate Knox.

Instead, every time he looks at me, I feel like he sees the parts of me I’ve spent my whole life trying to hide while working at the Magnolia Bait and Marine Supply.

Wanting him is dangerous.

But maybe staying exactly who I’ve always been is worse.

KNOX

I rule Gator Flats.

Seventeen years wearing the president’s patch, and every man in this swamp answers to me. So when someone gives up a club member’s location to an enemy, I take it personal.

What I don’t need is Maren Caldwell driving past my compound like her father didn’t change both our lives forever.

She’s too young. Too tied to things that never washed clean. And every time I look at her, I forget that wanting something and taking it are two different things.

I rule this town.

But one mistake is all it takes to lose it.

🏍️Review🏍️
All Maren wants is to manage the business that she inherited from her grandfather and keep her distance from her father, the town sheriff with his own agenda, as well as the MC. When she finds herself caught in a dangerous situation through no fault of her own the last thing she wants is to see Knox at her door and the domino of events that it would start.

Knox is the President of the Iron Outlaws MC who would do anything for his MC. He has a preconceived idea of what Maren is like because of what her father did to his family, so their first meeting doesn’t go well. Finding out that she is caught in the middle of events that she has no control over his feeling for her change from foe to protector.

The interactions between them were engaging and the feelings between them are power. Even though they appear to be opposites in every way and that people wouldn’t want them to be together that isn’t enough to turn away from the love they share.

GRIM

Kat Mizera

Release Date: June 1

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

I knew she was in trouble the second she looked at me.

Bruised. Terrified. Barely standing.

And when she mouthed the word help through the window of that van, there was no walking away.

I’ve spent my life in dangerous places. Former Special Forces. Private security. Violence doesn’t scare me.

But the woman I pull from that nightmare?

She gets under my skin fast.

Allora Sterling is beautiful, stubborn, and fighting to survive something that should’ve destroyed her. The men who took her hurt her in ways that make my hands shake every time I think about it.

Now someone wants her back.

And after the traffickers tear apart her condo looking for her, I take her home with me because it’s the only place I know I can keep her safe.

One apartment.
One bed.
One broken woman who still finds the strength to smile at me.

I should keep my distance.

Instead, I become obsessed with making her feel safe again. Feeding her. Holding her through nightmares. Touching her like she’s something precious instead of something broken.

But the deeper we fall, the more dangerous things become.

Because the men hunting Allora aren’t random criminals.

This is personal.

And when they take her from me a second time, they make one fatal mistake—

They leave me alive.

Now there’s nowhere on earth I won’t go, nobody I won’t destroy, to bring her home.

Even if I have to burn the whole world down to do it.

GRIM is a dark romantic suspense featuring an elite bodyguard hero, a survivor heroine, forced proximity, touch-her-and-die protection, found family, motorcycle club ties, and a fiercely possessive happily ever after.

🏉age gap

I met Ben Wells at an airport on one of the worst days of my life.
We talked, laughed, connected, and survived a travel disaster.
Then we shared one wild, passionate night together.

That was where the story was supposed to end.

Ben went back to his life as a professional rugby player, and I went back to mine as a college student.
Except mine came with a positive pregnancy test and a life I never planned for.
One Ben made it clear he wanted no part of.

I didn’t fall apart or chase him. I picked myself up and brushed myself off, raised my daughter, and fought my way into law school.

For five years, we did just fine without him.
We were happy, even.

Then, out of nowhere, Ben crashes back into our lives, smiling like nothing ever happened, and everything I thought I knew comes undone. Because some misunderstandings don’t just break hearts. They steal years.

Now Ben is determined to make up for lost time, and not just with our daughter.

The passion we shared is still alive and well, but the stakes are much higher now. But if there’s one thing Ben is good at—besides being relentlessly cheerful and sexy in his rugby uniform—it’s persistence. He doesn’t give up.

If Ben has it his way, the end of our story will be only the beginning.

From the bestselling author of the Boston Bolts Hockey Series comes a friends-to-strangers-to-lovers hockey romance featuring the next generation of Langfields.

There are only two things I’ve ever truly wanted in my life. To be a goalie in the NHL and JJ Hanson.

In a twisted way, both dreams have come true. Rather than a spot on the roster though, I’m now the first female goalie coach in the NHL. JJ Hanson’s coach, specifically.

Not only is he one of my players—making him totally off limits—he’s also a single dad and still technically married. Oh, and thanks to my father’s meddling, he’s now my roommate, along with his cousin and her three kids, my sister and her four-year-old twins, my cousin, and JJ’s daughter, who I unfortunately adore.

Yup, I’m living with six kids under the age of five, and the only man I’ve ever loved.

There was a time when JJ was my closest friend, and for one perfect moment, he was mine. Now we don’t even talk. JJ is determined to change that, though, and when opportunity strikes and suddenly both of my dreams are within reach, I have to make a decision. Can I step out onto that ice as the first female goalie in the NHL and trust JJ with my heart?

I’ve never been one to walk away from a challenge. Maybe the only way JJ and I can move forward is to go back to the start.

Paper Rings is a friends-to-lovers, single-dad, second-chance hockey romance with dual POV and a dual timeline featuring a Brownstone like Mother Faker and many of your favorite characters from the Langfield Brothers’ family. It is the first book in the New Romantics Series and a complete standalone.

🏒Review🏒
Addie’s impressive resume as a goalie makes her the perfect choice to be the goalie coach even if it means she and JJ can no longer keep the distance between them. He was her best friend and first love until it took a heartbreaking turn and now not only is she is coach, but she finds herself living with him and his daughter Avery as well as other family.

JJ may regret the events that tore he and Addie apart, but he could never regret his daughter. Now that Addie is back in his life he wants a second chance however that would mean not only discussing where things went wrong but dealing with what happened and finding a path forward.

There is so much turmoil between Addie and JJ that could have been easily overcome but what is the fun in that. The living situation is entertaining, the banter is humorous, the emotion heartfelt, the chemistry intense and the relationship that Addie has with both JJ and Avery will touch your heart.

My Forever Girl by Laura Pavlov is now live!

A Small Town, Friends-to-Lovers, Forbidden Love Standalone Romance from USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, Laura Pavlov.

Gracie Reynolds and I have been best friends since we were kids.
She’s smart, kind, funny, beautiful—and one of the best parts of my life.
When Gracie walks into a room, people notice.
I always notice.

But when she moved across the world with a guy I despised, it felt like I’d lost a piece of myself.
I missed her in ways I still can’t explain.

Now she’s back— and she’s crashing at my place for a couple of months while she figures things out.
She’s single and ready for a fresh start.
I’ve always had her back, and that hasn’t changed.

What has changed?
The way that she looks at me.
The way I can’t stop looking at her.
So, when Gracie makes me a once in a lifetime proposition–obviously, I’m all in.
But this isn’t your average gray area–it’s a full-on, sweat-inducing, five chili pepper detour we never meant to take.

Gracie has big dreams though, and I’d never be the guy to hold her back.
Even if all I want…is to be the reason that she stays.

There hasn’t been a time that Gracie hasn’t been best friends even though her decision to follow her heart led her to relocating for a year with the man she thought she loved. She has recently returned home to regroup and decide what comes next and where better than with Cutler. When they finally gave in to the chemistry between them she faces the decision of whether to stay or to follow the plan she previously made.

Cutler has always loved Gracie, but he wanted her to be happy even if that was with another man. When he realizes that her relationship wasn’t all romance and roses he wants to show her what it could be like with him. The only problem is that her dreams seem to be directing her to leave town once again.

Cutler and Gracie have always belonged together and their feelings for other heartwarming and intense. The story finds the perfect balance between humor, romance and emotion as Cutler and Gracie try to find a way to have each other as well as their dreams.

Title: Foolish Pride

Crawling back home with my tail between my legs was not the way I saw my life going.

I had it all.

A fantastic job. A fiancée who adored me, and a life any man would dream of.

That’s about the time it all fell apart.

But Montana has a way of healing all wounds, from the beautiful sunrises to the fresh mountain air.

Sure, my father still hated me for leaving. My mother still defended him at every turn.

And the gossip…

It was enough to drive me insane.

And then I sat next to her at The Beaver and Boot.

Gorgeous, curvy, full of life, and so easy to talk to.

She was perfect.

Until I realized she was the same girl I tormented as a kid.

Yep, I was that boy who didn’t know how to tell a girl he liked her, so he picked on her. And boy, did she let me know how much she hated me.

Every Tuesday and Thursday night.

But the one thing she couldn’t ignore was the undeniable chemistry when my body was pressed against hers.It was only supposed to be a friends with benefits situation, but she wormed her way into my head, and made it impossible to ignore my own Foolish Pride.

I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

She places her palm on my thigh as she regains her balance, but her laughter brightens her whole face. I grab my phone real quick and take a photo of her. The first one I’ll have of many. 

    “Wait, what are you doing?” 

    “Think it’s obvious. I just took your photograph. You look real pretty when you laugh.” 

    She stamps a foot. “Oh my god. I need to get a spine.” 

    Now, I laugh. “What do you mean by that?” “You keep saying things, and I keep melting.” 

    Confused, I pull her to me. “Isn’t that the way it’s supposed to be?” 

    “No, I’m supposed to set boundaries. Like, tell you to ask me if you want to take my photo.”

    “See?” she says, throwing up her hands. “Hi, I’m Maren. I’m an ice cube that turns into puddle every time my boyfriend says not-suitable-for-work sweet things. Pleased to meet you.”

The blindfold is lifted to rest on my forehead. Daniel is always a nice surprise, but he’s blocking my view. When he steps aside, my hands fly to cover my mouth when it drops open. I pivot my gaze back to him, who knows by the smirk on his face that he’s done good. Darn good. 

I glance at the box stuffed in an arena seat and see white ice skates still inside. Tears flood my eyes, and even when I tip my head back, I can’t keep them from falling. “You brought me ice-skating?”

“Figured we could skate together since we’re a long way off from preseason.”

He flips a seat down for me to sit. I take in the rink and the arena, the scoreboard, and the large speakers, their penguin mascot painted under layers of ice, and the team’s logos on the sides. “This is where you play?” 

He sits next to me to start putting on his skates. “This is where I play.”

The tears should have subsided. I don’t know why, but I feel closer to him than ever, being here. Leaning over, I hug him. “Thank you. Thank you for bringing me here.”

“It’s fun you’re here, Sunshine. So I guess I should have asked. Do you know how to ice-skate?”

Oh boy. “It’s been a while, but I sure do. I was Frosty the Snowman in our school’s production in third grade. It was a live show on ice.”

“I can’t wait to see those moves.”

“Yeah, watch out. Literally.” I laugh just as the crackle of speakers is sharp to the ears. A pop song soon comes through. Removing the blade covers from his skates, he backs onto the ice. I take one off and then the other just as the song changes from upbeat to . . . My heart catches in my throat. “Are you romancing me, Mr. Sutton?”

“May I have this dance?”

I take his hand and step onto the ice. I want to say it’s like riding a bike, but I’m grateful the sides of the skates are reinforced to keep my ankles from breaking. 

He asks, “Can you skate backward?”

“No.” I flash a humorless grin. “Absolutely not.” 

Moving his hands to my waist, he says, “Hold my shoulders. I got you.”

He’s got me alright.

I’m a little stiff, so Dart takes my hand and sets it around his neck. He slips his now free hand to my hip. We feel even closer. His heart races beneath my other hand. The back of his neck is damp. His forehead is almost against mine.

“Hold onto me, Forever,” he whispers, his breath brushing my lips.

“I don’t want people to think I’m clinging to you.” The words come out in a rush. A river of panic. Not that I care what people think, but I don’t want to look like I’m clinging to the man who broke my heart.

Dart stills. He lifts my chin and meets my eyes. “Then let me cling to you.”

He scoops his hand around my back again while the other one slips around my nape. We look like we’re embracing more than dancing. Dart picks up that subtle sway again and hums in my ear, emphasizing certain words in the tune.

Home. Never leaving. Love.

From USA Today Best Selling author Mary Catherine Gebhard comes a brand new dark romcom about a girl who makes a dating profile to live out all of her spicy, bookish fantasies.

He was all my twisted, dark book boyfriend fantasies come to life. Masked. Tattooed. Dirty talking—and totally unhinged.
Morally grey? Check.
Stalker? Check.
A very illegal, very bloody hobby? Check.
Possessive, obsessive, and calls me a good girl? Check. Check. Check.
I should probably call the police.
I definitely shouldn’t take dirty selfies because I know he hacked my phone.
But what’s a girl to do?
It’s my very own stalker romance.

About the Author:

I started writing the moment I could read. My first characters were Wibbley and Squig and I used MS Word and clipart to bring them to life when I was a kid in elementary school. I started seriously thinking about being a writer in High School and I remember the day exactly, because it was such an epiphany. I was always so uncertain. You know how everyone was always asking what you wanted to be when you were older? Well I NEVER could decide.

I wanted to be a marine biologist.

An actor.

A FIRE FIGHTER (thank you Joaquin Phoenix in Ladder 49 for that phase).

One day it hit me—A WRITER. I could do it ALL. Then you couldn’t stop me from writing. I penned my first novel at fifteen (but don’t ask me to show it to you, because it’s like I was in competition to beat the thesaurus). When I was diagnosed with a chronic illness, writing became even more important, because it became my therapy. When I wrote my characters, suddenly I wasn’t so alone.

These days you can find me daydreaming about where to travel with my husband, singing in my car, or lost in the newest K drama. And planning my next novel, of course
