When her nose isnโt buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, sheโs in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. Itโs a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesnโt listen to herโฆ
๐Review๐ To be the wife that her husband wants Lexi has lost sight of who she is and the situation. When everything comes to a crescendo she knows she needs to leave and is focused on putting what happened behind her and creating a new life for herself, but she never expected that the future would include Kirby who played a pivotal role in her leaving.
Kirby is a professional hockey player who was drawn to her from their first meeting but after the auction that they were working on together he never expected to see her again. Months later he finds out she has moved to town and now he is willing to be patient and let her set the pace when it comes to any relationship between them.
After everything that Lexi has been through I enjoyed seeing her reclaim the woman she used to be and Kirby is supportive and understanding and shows her the life and love they could have together. Stephanie Rose portrays the insecurities that Lexi has to perfection while Teddy Hamilton brings out the sweet and swoony sides of Kirby.
A brand new forced proximity, second chance MC romance.
He left me on our wedding day with a single message: Iโm sorry.
Two years later, the man who broke my heart kicks down my door, cuffs us together, and drags me into the Louisiana bayou in the middle of winter.
Haze โCipherโ Gravemont.
The hunky rat bastard.
Heโs also Savage Reignโs in-house hacker, outlaw enforcer, and the only man I ever loved. Sadly, because I would love to get over how easily his callused touch affects my blood pressure.
Anyway, the reason Iโm cuffed to my hot ex is because my name is at the top of a hit list that is now in possession of his enemy.
Fun times.
And the Russian crime lord moving Euphoria through New Orleans wants me silenced.
Merry Christmas to me, I guess.
Cipher swears his remote cabin is all about my safety and not about getting me naked in the middle of nowhere.
Out here, thereโs no escape, no cell signal and no streaming.
Itโs just him in my space looking like a wet dream come true.
But dammit! Heโs the enemy of my heart who still knows how to touch me like Iโm his. And we all are about to learn just how fast my body betrays me when moonlight mixes with midnight fantasies.
But when the danger hunting us closes in, I have to decide if I can trust the man who left my heart crushed with my life or if I risk the bayou and save myself.
Harlow works for the FBI and has been gathering intel on a dangerous drug when she finds herself in danger. What she didnโt expect was that the man who broke her heart a few years earlier would abduct her in order to keep her safe.
Cipher is a member of the MC who ended his relationship with Harlow believing he was making the right choice. When he finds out she is in danger there is nothing he wonโt do to keep her safe and fight for a second chance even if that means he must resort to extraordinary tactics.
The chemistry and feelings between Cipher and Harlow is stronger than ever as they find themselves in a fight not only for their future but for their lives as well.

Welcome to Rebel, Louisianaโwhere the humidity feels personal, even the otters hold grudges, and chaos is a competitive sport.
I used to play hockey in sold-out arenas. Now my wrecked knee and I are stuck in a little bayou town thatโs been mad at me for a year. I need a big comebackโand ZERO drama.
So first thing, I get tackled at the airport by a sunshiny woman in yellow overalls whoโs thwarting my kidnappingโฆ by her grandpas.
Thatโs Nora DelauneโParks & Rec director, caffeine-powered menace, and the only person in Rebel willing to give me a chance. She needs me to win games and help save the townโs ice arena before it gets turned into a laser-tag nightmare.
And Iโฆ kind of like being needed by her. Even when sheโs producing a singing, dancing, wig-wearing ice extravaganza that is definitely not hockey.
Then my sisterโthe teamโs new ownerโdrops the bomb: if Nora and I โdate,โ the town might stop hating me.
Fine. Weโll fake it. As long as we donโt call it love.
But between late-night practices, the sugar-addicted swamp-werewolf mascot, otter drama, and the way Nora looks at me like Iโm worth rooting forโฆIโm in trouble.
I came to Rebel to rebuild my career. I didnโt expect to lose my heart doing it.
Nine months ago, I had one perfect, reckless night with Jasper Lawrence, the tall, tattooed firefighter who made me feel fearless. I told myself it was a mistake Iโd never repeat.
Then he finds me at the Maple Festivalโฆ in labor with our surprise baby.
The best part? I had no idea I was pregnant.
Now Jasper is everywhere. The two of us stumble through new parenthood together. And he doesnโt just step up, he moves in. Almost. He pitches a tent in my backyard and sleeps outside so heโs never far away from us. Heโs a shirtless, helpful menace who cooks, cleans, and cuddles our son. He makes me feel safe, seen, and wanted. And I hate how much I love it.
Every time I shove him away, he shows back up, golden retriever energy and all, with coffee and pastries in tow, ready to carry the baby, the groceries, and occasionally me.
I came to Maplewood, Vermont, to discover my independence. But itโs hard to keep my distance when the townโs been shaken by danger, the scars from my past refuse to stay buried, and the firefighter I should absolutely avoid keeps setting my world on fire.
Turns out the biggest threat to me in Americaโs most charming small town might be the man who wonโt stop rescuing me.

โจ TEASER: PLAYING FOR THE PRESIDENTโS DAUGHTER by @authorkimberlyknight & @rachellynadams releasing February 2nd! Pre-Order now at your favorite book vendor as it will be exclusive to Amazon on release day!
The presidentโs daughter shouldnโt be sharing a bed with two men.
She definitely shouldnโt still be thinking about them after one night together.
Faye Donnelley lives with every move photographed or judged. She can handle gossip blogs and political narratives, but what she really wants is something that isnโt for public consumption. One Fourth of July with two college baseball players finally gives her a night that isnโt for cameras or anyone outside that room.
Dylan Statler and Jase Matthewson are best friends, stepbrothers, and college teammates with dreams of making it to the big leagues. Hooking up with the presidentโs daughter was supposed to be a one-time thing. Except they canโt stop checking Fayeโs socials or replaying how it felt with her pressed between them, their hands and mouths all over her.
After Dylan and Jase are drafted by different teams hundreds of miles apart, their private group text with Faye turns into stolen weekends, hotel rooms, and late-night video calls they canโt resist. It starts to feel like they arenโt just playing for their careers, but for the presidentโs daughter, and for something between the guys they canโt ignore.
If their relationship gets exposed, Faye could become a political talking point while sports media outlets dissect Dylan and Jaseโs personal lives instead of their stats. That fallout would be bad enough, but when a terrifying moment shakes their world, it forces them to decide if theyโre willing to risk it all or walk away from a relationship that only works when all three are together.
โจTEASER: ON BORROWED TIME by @harlowjamesauthor releasing January 16th! This will be a simultaneous release in Audio with the amazing narrators Connor Crais & Vanessa Edwin in DUET!
Being a nanny for a newly single dad wasnโt the job I applied for when I decided to lick my wounds in Blossom Peak.
But showing him my bare backside wasnโt in my plans either.
When the pursuit of my dream career seemed unattainable, instead of going home and proving my parents right, I made a detour to the small mountain town I remember visiting as a kid.
I just wanted a waitressing job to make some extra money while I figured out my next steps.
But then the lumberjack of an owner begged me to help him with his three month-old daughter that he just found out existed, and I couldnโt resist his plea.
Or his massive physiqueโthe one I saw every detail of when he appeared shirtless in front of me three times in the first week.
The problem with living together though is thereโs little space, especially when my boss is so closed off that heโs like a nut I want to crack open.
And when I do, he steals the breath from my lungsโand reignites my creativity as well.
But I gave myself a deadline to figure out whatโs next.
Nowhere in that plan though did I account for falling for Henley Clark.
Turns out the heart doesnโt care, even when youโre on borrowed time.

Briar
My father gave me the family brewery as an early Christmas present.
Generous, right? Except every single person on staff just quit, and I only have a budget that’ll last through the end of the year.
I need a miracle.
Lucky for me, my best friend Hannah’s big brother, Liam, is a genius brewer, and she convinces him to quit his job and come work for me. She only has one condition: I can never date him.
It’s an easy agreement to make. I’ve vowed to stay away from men after an embarrassing breakup, and I’d never sleep with someone who works for me. Besides, Liam’s an amateur boxer and frankly a bit terrifying.
Only…it turns out my best friend’s brooding, insanely talented big brother is the only man who’s ever really understood me.
Liam
I promised my sister not to date any more of her friends, because the last time I tried, it ended badly. Very badly.
I took this job thinking it wouldn’t be a problem to stay away from Briar. She’s a daddy’s girl who looks like a princess and talks like a boarding school teacher. Not my type.
But the woman I wrote off knows a lot about beer, and she’s a whole lot tougher than I gave her credit for. I want to run this brewery with her…and I want her too.
To my complete shock, I’m falling hard for my boss, and if my sister finds out, there will be hell to pay.
Note: There are TWO different versions of this romcom:
1) A spicy open door version with some strong language and sex scenes
2) A closed door version with mild language and only kissing.
Quiet. Serious. Protective. All words Stone Sylver would use to describe himself. And yet, something in his classic blue eyes said he was so much more. Buried beneath the years of raising his younger siblings and being a small town sheriff was a man looking for love.
Of course, I didnโt get all that the first night we met. The night we did a one-two step in a hotel hallway and knocked heads. The same night we shared a sweet potato cupcake and a single kiss.
Why didnโt we share more? The moment became a great mystery to me and because I thought he was only a brief interlude in my wanderlust life, I wasnโt prepared to see him again in Sterling Falls.
Visiting the small town where I once lived, I learn the man who I witnessed act like a superhero was more entwined in my past than Iโd remembered. And for a woman often afraid of a future, I suddenly craved oneโฆwith him. Which made no sense as Iโd never stuck in one place before. No one had ever asked me to stay.
Then again, from our first encounter, I knew Stone Sylver was different.
My job is simple: make Maverick Jennings, the worldโs grumpiest quarterback, look like a decent human being. If I canโt fix his reputation, I can kiss my dream of launching my own brand consulting business goodbye.
His job? Making my life a living nightmare.
Heโs arrogant, impossible, and entirely too handsome for someone so determined to self-destruct. He rejects every idea, challenges every strategy, and looks at me like he canโt decide whether to strangle me or kiss me. Honestly, same.
But the closer I get to the man behind the headlines, the more I realize his scowl is hiding a world of pain.
Heโs my most difficult client. Iโm his last chance.
It only takes one reckless night to change everything.
Somewhere between tension and temptation, protecting his image became more than just a job. Now my career is in the red zone, and the wrong choice between loyalty and love could cost me everything.

That is easier said than done when they find themselves in Vegas to celebrate their upcoming nuptials but a little too much to drink results in her marrying Doninic. She just wants an annulment, and they can both go their separate ways however when her family finds out that is no longer possible.
