Memories of You, an all new sexy second chance Stark Security novella from New York Times bestselling author J. Kenner and 1,001 Dark Nights, is out now!

Hollywood consultant Renly Cooper is fed up with relationships. His recent breakup with a leading lady played out across the tabloids, and the former Navy Seal is more than ready to focus on his new position as an agent at the elite Stark Security agency. He’s expecting international stakes. Instead, his first assignment is to protect one of Damien Stark’s friends from a stalker. A woman who, to his delight, turns out to be one of his closest childhood friends.

After a foray into online dating puts tech genius Abby Jones in danger, she needs a bodyguard, and her business partner, Nikki Fairchild Stark, enlists help from Stark Security. When the assigned agent turns out to be her best friend from junior high—and her first crush—she’s thrilled to discover he’s even more delicious now. She hopes one sexy night can turn into more, but Renly is firmly in the friends-with-benefits camp.

As the threat to Abby increases, she tries to keep her growing feelings for Renly at bay. But as the sparks between them burn even hotter, can they go from friends to lovers when the first order of business is simply to keep Abby alive?

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

Excerpt

In the rearview mirror, I watch as he gets off the bike, then walks toward me across the lot. I get out and meet him at the rear of the car. 

“I haven’t got a single quarter,” he says. “Do you?”

I laugh. “Not a one. But I do have a credit card.” I’m about to walk over to that side and start the system running, but he gets there first, sliding in his card and then grinning at me as the machinery starts rumbling. 

This particular car wash has a hose on each side of the stall. I’ve always assumed that was so that you don’t have to drag a dirty hose over your newly cleaned half in order to wash the other side. Now I consider another purpose. 

Renly apparently has the same thought, because I see the gleam in his eyes as he goes to the far side, then grabs the coiled hose, his hand poised on the nozzle. 

“Don’t you even think about it,” I say, going for my own hose.

His eyes widen, all innocent and guileless. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” 

I burst out laughing. Then, still laughing, I pull the trigger on my own hose and spray him, accidentally getting him full-on in the crotch.

“Seriously?” he says. “Sweetheart, you are so going to pay for that.”

“Phhbbt.” I dance away from the spray he aims at me.  “I would have thought someone in the military would have a faster reaction time.” 

He aims again, and this time manages to completely soak the T-shirt I’d worn to work this morning. “Hey!” I protest. “This is a genuine discount bin Old Navy T-shirt. How dare you defile it?”

“Well, it fits you very nicely,” he says, letting his eyes skim over me in what I know is an exaggerated leer. 

I glance down, realizing that since I knew I was going to be the only one in the office today, I hadn’t bothered to wear a bra. That’s something I can usually get away with, but in a wet T-shirt, even my barely-B-cup breasts look pretty perky.

I roll my eyes. “Perv.”

“I apologize for nothing.”

Review

Renly has transitioned from his career as a Navy SEAL and is now working for Stark Security. When Damien and his wife get a frantic call from one of her employees he decides to go as well when he realizes it is from his childhood friend who he lost contact with as a teenager.

Abby is working with Nikki and has been receiving suspicious calls so when she sees what appears to be blood on her car she panics. No one was more surprised that she when Renly, her best friend and first love, is there as well. Their feeling for each other haven’t diminished over time but will Renly realize what Abby means to him before the threat against her is successful?

Hot chemistry, great characters, suspense, steam and catching up with Nikki and Damien is always a treat.

My Kind of Perfect by Tracy Brogan is now live!
Available in ebook, audio + paperback!
http://getbook.at/MKOP

From Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Tracy Brogan comes a sweet, funny Trillium Bay romance about moving on, creating your best self, and discovering the true meaning of love.

After her scandalous May-December romance comes to an end, baby of the family Lilly Callaghan returns home to Trillium Bay braced for the torrent of “I told you sos” from her sisters and the rest of the tiny island community. Floundering both personally and professionally, she’s at an emotional crossroads but determined to figure out her next best steps.

When a surprise job offer from her house-flipping sister reacquaints Lilly with handsome, free-spirited Wenniway Island transplant Matt Eastman, Lilly wonders if she’s ready for a new romance. Then she meets Hollywood heartthrob Jayden Pierce, who is filming a movie on the island, and she’s certain of it—but with whom? She’s caught the attention of both men, and both men have caught hers. So what’s a girl to do?

Earnest Matt shares her love of the close-knit island community, while surprisingly down-to-earth Jayden encourages her to live life outside her comfort zone. As the flirtatious triangle sets the town talking, Lilly must choose: Does she want to plant forever roots in Trillium Bay with Matt? Or follow a man who makes love stories for a living? Two very different men. Two very different futures. But deep down, Lilly knows that only one holds the promise of her kind of perfect.

Review

When Lilly met Tag she thought he was a dream come true but when reality set in she believed that they wouldn’t be able to overcome their very different versions for the future. She finds herself starting over back in hometown not looking for love when two men come into her life.

Matt is a yoga instructor who has become part of the Island life while Jayden is a larger than life movie star. They both appeal to her for very different reasons and now she must decide what the life she wants to live looks like and which man is destined to play the starring role.

This is a heartwarming story about discovering who you are and what will truly make you happy. It is about learning from your mistakes and realizing that the choices that don’t give you the outcome you want lead you to knowing what you do want.

She’s a girl with her whole life ahead of her.

Review

If life was fair Peyton was at a time in her life when she should be focused on friends, dating and school but that is not the case. Filled with guilt and regrets for circumstances that were not only not her fault but beyond her control. She is floundering but determined not to burden those she cares about with what is really going on until Xander comes into her life when she needs someone the most.

Xander is on a downward spiral as he feels more a spectator when it comes to life than a participant. He is mired in pain and feels unworthy but when he sees Peyton at one of the lowest points in her life he senses a kindred soul. They are wrong for each other on so many levels and he knows that the best way to protect her is by staying away but it complicated by the fact that the only time they feel any respite from the demons that haunt them is when they are together.

Peyton and Xander take us on emotional journey as despite the difference between them they find themselves in a similar mindset but seeing them open their hearts and help each other heal from the past was wonderful to see.

We are so excited to announce the release of Adriana Locke’s new novella, 608 Alpha Ave. This is a total standalone story about a grumpy, small-town mechanic and a pocket-full-of-sunshine heroine that gets under his skin.

Basically—read this now!

Even better is that the novella (did we mention that it’s a standalone?) is available in Kindle Unlimited.

Things heat up (and take an unexpected turn) when a self-proclaimed romantic requests the help of a broody small-town mechanic.

Grayson Blake is a jackass.
There’s no other way to put it.
He comes into Fireside every day and orders a beer. It’s nearly impossible to get him to have a conversation while he drinks it. Smiles—or anything remotely close to it—are even more rare.
Despite his cantankerous personality, he’s so freaking gorgeous. His thick black hair, broad shoulders, and the tattoos that mark his calloused skin draw me in like a magnet. I don’t even care that he’s ten years older than me. I’m here for the age gap. And his broody, bad-boy persona is entirely more attractive than it should be.
I have a thing for the rough-around-the-edges mechanic. And I’ve heard through the grapevine that he has a thing for me too. But getting him to admit it will be as easy as catching lightning in a bottle.

“I don’t get it,” I mutter.  

My hand stills against the countertop, a white bar rag clutched firmly in my grasp. 

Natalia Barlow leans across the end of the bar, putting her ass and the top of her thong on full display for the table of bikers behind her. An unlit cigarette is perched between her cherry-red lips, threatening to topple to the floor as she catches me looking and smirks. 

I roll my eyes and turn my back to her.  

“I don’t get it,” I say again, louder this time. 

My gaze fixes on the man—the only man—occupying a barstool on this side of the restaurant. Grayson Blake. Black hair, scruffy beard, tall, and oh-so muscular with tattoos etched into his tanned skin. Word has it that he has flames inked on his right hip, and when he moves, they dance as if they’re alive. 

I’ve mentally filed that away because it’s something I’ll (sadly) never know for myself. Guys like Grayson Blake? They go for women like Natalia. Vixens. Women who give as good as they get. Women who understand them or, at the very least, the games they play. 

I’m not one of those women. It will be both my personal and professional downfall. 

Grayson lifts his beer bottle, and as if it pains him to do it, he slides his gaze to mine. 

I swallow. Hard. 

It doesn’t matter that I’ve worked at Fireside Bar and Grill for two years or that I’ve spent countless hours behind this very bar while Grayson sits on the other side, I can’t think straight when he looks at me. I also can’t look away. It’s quite the predicament.  

“It just perplexes me,” I say, sinking my gaze into the steely depths of Grayson’s eyes. My voice isn’t quite as confident as it was a few seconds ago. It’ll come back around, though. It just takes a moment to get my bearings. 

Grayson’s features are void of humor. Or emotion. Or curiosity. He watches me as if I’m a toddler and he’s in charge of making sure I don’t choke on a peanut or small coin.  

I bite my lip. “I just … Natalia …” I shrug, my voice fading into the rock music playing overhead. 

Grayson’s thick, engine grease-stained fingers grip the bottle. “Am I supposed to ask?” 

The grit of his tone washes against my skin, leaving a flurry of goose bumps in its wake. It’s this way every time he talks to me. And whenever he talks to Corbin, the bartender who’s training me in the art of bartending so I don’t have to just waitress anymore. Come to think of it, I also have the same physical reaction to him when I’m in the Cherry Street Market Grocery Store buying bagels and I hear him talking from an aisle over. 

Who am I kidding? I react this way every time I’m in Grayson’s proximity. Hell, I shivered in my flip-flops when I caught wind of his cologne outside of Pearl’s Pawnshop and Liquor Store last week. 

“Are you supposed to ask what?” I ask him. 

“About whatever you keep jawing about other there—about Natalia, I reckon.” 

“Well, since you asked—”

“I didn’t.” He smiles a lopsided, amused smile that makes me wonder if he’s smiling with me or at me. “I asked if I was supposed to ask. I didn’t ask.” 

I narrow my gaze. “You know what, Grayson Blake? You’re an asshole.” 

He brings the beer bottle to his lips, hiding a satisfied grin, and pulls his gaze back to the hockey game on the television in the corner.

Pick this one up now!

💙Review💙

Grayson has been hiding his attraction to Haley for a while but that is a line he is determined not to cross as not only is there the age difference between them but the want different things from life.

Haley is a romantic who wants love, a relationship and everything that goes along with it however even every attempt she has made to show Grayson her interest in him is rebuffed.

An interfering brother and a hike they will never forget forces Grayson to realize that he is about to let the best thing that ever happened to him walk out of his life.

Rule #1: Don’t fall in love with your best friend.

Tally Kerr broke Rule #1 over a decade ago—a mistake that ended in the worst way possible.

Rule #2: Don’t date an artist.

Tally recently broke Rule #2, and the artist broke up with her. The consequence? She’s stuck curating a three-week exhibit for the jerk, and the only thing worse than dealing with him and his new girlfriend are the pity looks from the other artists.

So, she calls in a favor from her former best friend.

Sam Deschenes didn’t expect to see Tally again. And he knows he’s to blame. So when she says she’s coming to town and needs his help, Sam can’t say no—not even when she asks him to be her pretend boyfriend.

Tally wants nothing more than to forget Arizona, which is why this charade is critical. She’ll replace all her memories with fake ones and prove she never really loved Sam.

As the days tick by, remembering Arizona—and all the reasons she fell for her best friend—come too easily. When their scorching desire incinerates the line between real and fake, will Tally keep up the act or will she break rule number one all over again?

Review

The way that Tally’s relationship ended with her ex was bad enough but having to work with him and the woman he chose over her is adding insult to injury. She needs damage control and that comes in the form of the man who used to be her best friend until he broke her heart a decade earlier.

Sam regrets what transpired between him and Tally and believes this is the opportunity to make amends for the past. Neither expected that the chemistry and connection that had been lying dormant would return stronger than ever, but will this be their chance to right the wrongs of the past or are they headed for devastation once again?

Fun and flirty I enjoyed seeing them try to maneuver the parameters of their relationship as their story takes us on a journey filled with humor, heat and all the feels.

Sumner

Only time can heal your pain.

If I had a dime for every time someone said that to me, I wouldn’t have run away.

Because regardless of what they tell you, time doesn’t heal the pain.

Because what I was doing wasn’t living, it was a constant reminder of the life I’d lost.

Because I couldn’t bear the sadness I saw hiding behind Tatum’s eyes every time he looked at me.

I knew he loved me . . . But for how long?

One day he would’ve woken up and seen the same ugliness that I see every time I look in the mirror.

And that was something I couldn’t let happen.

With some help from an unlikely source, I fled to the one place I believed no one would ever find me . . . Virginia. Mark Dixon and Cole Security Forces helped conceal my past so the boy who holds my heart would never find me.

Until he did.

All I wanted was for the nightmares of that day to stop and to be left alone. I’m not the same girl I used to be, which is why I need to protect my heart from the devastation Tatum’s rejection could inflict.

But he refuses to leave me alone.

Should I take the risk and trust him?

Maybe they’re right.

Maybe time can erase the past and heal the pain.

Or, maybe Tatum will destroy what’s left of my heart forever.

About the Author:

Author BioStacey Johnston is an Australian author who resides in a northern Western Australian town with her husband and two younger daughters. A proud mother of four, Stacey divides her time trying to find the right balance between her family, her full time employment and her writing.

With a love of reading from an early age, Stacey often found herself getting lost within the pages. Toher, that wonderful world of make-believe was an escape from a life she didn’t always believe she belonged a part of.

Over time story telling became a big part of whoStacey was which is why she started writing them down a few years ago. Never wanting to limit herself to any one genre, Stacey has published works in theRomantic Suspense, ROMCOM and Women’s Fiction genres.

The one thing about being a writer that Stacey adores is the transference of those words fromhermindonto paper,so they can be shared with readers who are willing to take a leap of faith with a seemingly unknown author.In addition to that,if Stacey can create the whole disappearing into another world and imagining you aretherefeelingfor her own readers, it further aids in keeping her motivated.

That’s the beautiful thing about being a writer though, having the ability to create something magical just by walking past a stranger in a supermarket or on the street.

Review

Sumner has endured a painful past but the tragedy she lived through five years ago forever changed her. She needed to put distance between her and the painful memories even if that meant leaving her best friend and the man she loved behind.

After the tragedy Tatum wanted to be there for her however despite his efforts she left and he had no way of contacting. When destiny brings them back together will he be able to show her that he loves her just the way she is, scars and all?

Your heart will break for everything that Sumner has been through especially since there is still more to calm. Tatum is so strong and supportive as has never stopped loving her and isn’t about to let her walk out of his life a second time.

“Reel is alive and pulsing like a beating heart.
This romance is a triumph of art and emotion.”

Blurb:

Alexandra has her eye on one thing: her career.

After a nasty breakup and moving to a small town, she is determined to get her life back on track. She wasn’t expecting to meet a sexy, charming, military veteran who causes her to feel things she’s never felt.

Jake has devoted his life to the military. That is, until he couldn’t anymore.

Now back in his small town, Jake is just trying to get his life back on track. He wasn’t expecting to see the beautiful woman he helped on the side of the road.

She’s the counselor, he’s the client.

The two have a charged connection they can’t ignore.

Lines become blurred and boundaries are broken.

Can Alex risk everything for love? Will Jake let her?

Review

Jake may have left his military career in his past but the aftereffects still haunt him. He is finding the adjustment to civilian life more difficult than he expected until Alexandra comes into his life but with her comes a new set of challenges.

After what she has endured Alexandra is questioning her judgement when it comes to me. She is drawn to Jake in a way she never expected but is the reward of being with him worth the risk?

Jake and Alexandra take us on an emotional ride as there are so many reasons that they shouldn’t be together and only one reason they should which is the love and healing they bring to each other.
