💜He Falls First…and Harder
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.
Nate Wells has only ever been my best friend’s older brother…until he volunteers to be my fake boyfriend.
Getting dumped a week before my sister’s wedding wasn’t part of the plan.
Neither was showing up single and giving my family one more reason to question every life choice I’ve ever made.
So when Nate Wells offers to be my fake boyfriend for the weekend, it seems like the perfect solution.
Except he’s really good at pretending.
Every time he stands between me and my judgmental family, I find myself drawn a little closer. Every look, every laugh, every time he reaches for my hand makes me wonder how I never saw the man right in front of me.
And because the universe has a twisted sense of humor…there’s only one bed in our hotel room.
The wedding is supposed to be the end of our pretending. Instead, we’re forced to keep up the ruse, and the longer we do, the harder it becomes to remember what’s real.
But I have to, because falling for Nate isn’t an option.
If this all unravels, I won’t just lose him. I’ll lose everything that matters to me too.
He’s swearing off love… until he falls for the one woman he shouldn’t want.
Jax Morrow plays hard on the ice, but when it comes to his heart, he’s strictly defensive. After having his heart shattered twice, the star hockey player’s priorities are simple: playing the game and protecting his daughter. But when severe bullying forces his daughter to move in with him, Jax is left drowning in single fatherhood and desperate for help.
Kiley O’Shea is trying to juggle it all. Between being a single mom, teaching full-time and working nights at her family’s pub, she doesn’t have energy to spare—especially for the arrogant playboy athlete her father calls a friend. But when Jax quietly steps in as an investor to save her family’s struggling bar, Kiley realizes there’s far more to the playboy player than meets the eye.
After Kiley reluctantly agrees to become Jax’s temporary nanny, living under the same roof ignites a tension neither saw coming. Between chaotic parenting moments and late-night temptation, their explosive chemistry becomes impossible to deny.
Does Jax have the will power to keep his heart guarded against his biggest temptation or will this be the one game Jax isn’t strong enough to win?

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!

Reuniting as adults has inspired them to unleash their creative energy into contemporary and dark romances, bridging gaps in the genre and writing books they long to read. Based in the Southeastern United States, when not writing they are usually reading, lounging on the beach, or planning their next international vacation.
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.
Twelve years ago, I fled, vowing to never again use my power. But everything changes when I break that vow and bring two bodies back to life in the morgue.
It sends me spinning directly into his orbit.
Arrogant. Menacing. Enigmatic. That’sBronson Cortez, the notoriously violent gang leader who remains elusive to authorities.
He breaks the law at every turn and answers to no one. But when he offers me an alluring glimpse of what lies beneath that iron-clad exterior, I realize there’s more to him than meets the eye.
The man who fiercely guards his heart somehow manages to claim mine.
But he doesn’t know the truth about me.
I wonder if he could be the first to accept me for who I am—what I am.
I wonder if he’ll be the first to see beyond my darkness.
“I’m so glad I pretended I didn’t know how to fix a tire,” I snap.
His brow furrows, like he can’t believe he was played. “Wait. You could’ve done it yourself?”
I wave a hand at the tire. “You think I’m going to drive all the way from Evergreen Falls to San Francisco and not know how to fend for myself? I know Krav Maga, how to fix a flat, patch a sweater, and even unclog a sink. What can you do?” I tap my boot on the snowy ground. “I’ll wait.”
“I can save your pet’s life,” he says, going toe-to-toe. “Dog. Cat. Hamster. Take your pick.”
Dammit. I walked right into that one, and I have no comeback. Dr. Dick casually leans against my truck and snaps a selfie with a thumbs-up.
“What was that for?”
“My brother,” he says, fiddling with his phone still and not even looking up. “This has to be worth at least ten points for the twin game.” Finally, he puts his phone away, then tips his hat like some smug cowboy vet. “Trish’s Treads in Evergreen Falls should be open still. I just checked, so you can get a new tire put on stat if you need it, or have it permanently patched. The snow’s going to be falling for a while.”
Ugh. He’s irritating and helpful. But he doesn’t get to tell me what to do. I can work out when to fix the tire myself. “I’ll keep that in mind for the future. I’m actually very busy—on my way to an ornament-making class tonight, and not a flat tire, or even someone like you can ruin it!”
He half turns, a smirk shifting his lips. “Of course you are. You’re a jolly.”
“Again, if the alternative is to be a grinch like you, I guess I am!”
“Your call,” he says with a smile before he slides into his truck and reaches back to pet his too-cute dog, who turns to look my way out the window.
I didn’t think this day could get any worse, but now I have a new enemy. Not the dog, of course.
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?

I raise an eyebrow at him. “Um, what for? You can reach me at my office number. I know you have that, or you can get it from your agent.”
“Your phone, princess,” he repeats with a teasing grin. “Hand it to me.”
“Brody, seriously, why?” I ask, even though I’m already pulling my phone out of my bag. “If I need to get in touch with you—”
“This isn’t about business,” he cuts in. He takes the phone from my palm and holds it up to my face to unlock it, then taps the glass quickly. I look down and see Brody listed as a contact. He presses call, waiting for his phone to buzz before handing mine back to me.
“There. Now you have my direct number,” he says firmly. “I don’t care if it’s three am and you have a craving for ice cream, if you feel sick, or if you just need someone to talk to, I want you to call me. Promise me, Ellis.”
I hold my phone in my hand, staring at this man, wondering why he cares so much.
“Okay, Brody. I promise,” I say softly.
“Fantastic,” he says, winking. “Good night, princess,” he says, reaching out to give my arm a squeeze. “Get some rest, yeah?”
“I’ll try. And hey, thank you again for going with me.” I smile at him, sincerely.
“It was an honor and a pleasure.” He nods.
“Night, Brody.”
I step out of the truck and walk through the glass doors of my building, giving a quick wave to my doorman as I walk to the private elevator to my floor.
When I step into my penthouse, I don’t feel the same uncertainty I’ve felt for the last few weeks. I walk over to the windows and look out over the Manhattan skyline.
For the first time, I gently rest my palm over my belly.
A fierce smile spreads across my face as the memory of the fast little heartbeat echoes in my mind.
Thump-thump. Thump-thump.
Dylan Boone thought he was leaving me all alone to handle this pregnancy, but he underestimated my reaction.

BLURB:
Ellis Renwick and I are barely more than acquaintances—connected only by mutual friends and the endorsement deal I signed with her company. Her baby isn’t mine, and minding my own business should be easy.
But when the baby’s father walks away, I step up. Raised by a single mom, I know the weight Ellis is about to carry, and there is no way I’m letting her do it alone. But somewhere between midnight cravings, stolen kisses, and tiny heartbeats, the woman behind my endorsement deal becomes my whole world. Now I’m falling hopelessly in love with a future that was never meant to be mine.
When her father discovers I’m not the biological dad, he wants to expose the ex publicly, threatening to shatter the quiet haven Ellis and I have built. He wants justice from a ghost. But they’ve become mine to protect.
What her dad doesn’t understand is that her ex walked away …
He was too fragile for the world that demanded strength.
He was doomed to die forgotten.
Sparrow is Comanche, son of a war chief, heir to a legacy of hunters and fighters but disease stole the body he was meant to have. While others ride to glory, he is left behind to guard the camp… until the world proves that survival is never fair.
When soldiers descend in fire and gun smoke, Sparrow makes a final stand that turns myth into blood-soaked truth. He dies a warrior at last.
And that should have been the end.
Instead, Sparrow awakens in Tir Na Nog, a brutal world of magic, monsters, and living systems where power is earned or taken. Here, gods bargain, death is temporary, and strength decides everything. Given a second life, a restored body, and bound to a dying trickster god, Sparrow must carve his place in a realm that makes no allowances for weakness.
This is not a story about chosen ones handed easy power.
This is a story about earning it.
Ashes and Ruin blends historical tragedy, Indigenous myth, and hard-edged LitRPG progression into a tale of identity, rage, honor, and rebirth. It asks a simple question:
If you were denied your destiny once…what would you become when given another chance
Sparrow has made a friend in this new world, and one he will not abandon.

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.
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.
Hadley Wright never expected one unforgettable night with a stranger to become the beginning of something she couldn’t forget. After slipping away before sunrise, she’s convinced she’ll never see the quiet, guarded man who made her feel safe on one of the hardest nights of her life again.
Until he walks right back into Coral Bell Cove.
Nolan Pierce has spent his entire life believing it’s easier not to need anyone. Buying the town’s struggling marina is supposed to be his fresh start—not falling for the woman who comes from the loud, loving family he’s never had.
But while Hadley believes love means showing up, Nolan is convinced it means protecting the people he cares about… even if that means shutting them out.
Now they’re both about to discover that falling in love is the easy part.
Trusting someone enough to stay might change everything.
At First Catch is a heartfelt, steamy small-town romance featuring a one-night stand, found family, slow-burn chemistry, meddling siblings, marina life, and a hero who falls first, falls hard, and learns that sometimes the strongest thing you can do is let someone stand beside you.
