💙Review💙 When Charlotte made a life choice, she believed she knew better than her parents only to find out that they were right. She now finds herself back at home and trying to make amends which includes working for her father. The one surprise she wasn’t expecting is that one of her clients would be the man she spent an unforgettable night with and the more she learns about his lifestyle the more she wants to be part of it.
Even though there are so many reasons they shouldn’t be together between the age gap, the fact that he works for her father and her inexperience when it comes to what he wants she inspires feeling he never expected and never wanted. It is all the more complicated when she wants everything he has to give.
The chemistry between these two radiates off the pages. I enjoyed seeing the evolution of Charlotte’s character as she fights for what and who she wants while Noah realizes that even though he thought he was happy being single it doesn’t compare to being with Charlotte.
An injured rugby star, his pregnant roommate, and one rule they can’t break: Don’t date the owner’s daughter.
It was supposed to be an easy house- and dog-sitting gig while the owner was gone for a month. But when my sportsing landlord comes home unexpectedly, injured and in need of a new arrangement, we end up as accidental roommates instead.
But if Holt Webster, the tall, thick-muscled, square-jawed, broody-eyed rugby player, had told me he played for the Copper Valley Pounders, I would’ve told him that my stepdad bought the team while I was working cruise ships overseas.
And he would’ve noped out of offering me a place to stay because the only thing worse than looking like you’re flirting with the owner’s daughter is looking like you’re hooking up with the owner’s pregnant daughter.
Yes, yes, I’m that woman—the one who accidentally got knocked up, decided to keep the baby, and had to move home because pregnancy and cruise ships aren’t a good match.
And now I’m that woman who doesn’t just look like she’s hooking up with an off-limits player. I actually am hooking up with an off-limits player. But who can blame me? He’s hot. He’s kind. And he’s spending our nights sleeping with his hand on my baby bump.
Claiming us both.
But if my dad finds out, Holt’s gone. And we’ll be…rucked.
The Roommate Mistake is a heart-tugging sports romcom featuring two people in need of new best friends, a dog with an attitude, and a very…fowl…meet-cute. It stands alone and comes complete with a found family happily ever after.
Content note: This book contains a character dealing with the loss of his brother to cancer.

How to complicate your rookie season in the NHL: fake date your former college rival and now teammate’s ex-girlfriend.
It’s a bad idea, and I know it, especially since Kendra Hart has had a hold over me since our freshman year of college. She has no idea how I feel, and I have zero control over my mouth when her life goes up in smoke and she needs a friend, along with a place to stay.
My coach, who also happens to be my stepdad, is warning me to stay away not only for the team’s sake but to spare me from getting hurt. I should probably listen to his advice. However, taking the simple route has never been my thing. And with every “fake” look, touch and kiss I give her, I think she might be starting to like me for more than just my British accent.
I’m starting to think this might be my best idea yet…
It’s been over a year since my world changed forever. After waking up thousands of miles from home, I was forced to start over, guided by scars I didn’t recognize. It hasn’t been easy, especially when life keeps pulling me toward a past I can’t fully grasp.
Now, a twist of fate has brought me back, thrusting me into a world I don’t remember. At college, I run into Ryder—someone who swears he knew me before, someone whose eyes spark a connection I can’t explain. Then there’s Jayson, whose pain and anger cut through me like shards of a forgotten past. And Fallon, the enigmatic playboy who shouldn’t make sense in my new life but somehow does.
They all want pieces of the girl I used to be. But I’m not her anymore.
If life offers you a second chance at love, how hard will you fight for it? My story is far from over—and this time, I’m writing it my way.

𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗟 𝗠𝗘 𝗢𝗡𝗖𝗘 (𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗕𝗮𝘆 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗸𝘀 #𝟯) by Hannah Gray releases on March 6th!!! This is a slow burn, second chance, professional hockey romance. Check out this teaser!
It’s true what they say, you really are wiser when you’re older, because I’ve hated my younger self for years. After leaving behind the girl that I spent my entire life loving from afar, younger me deserves the hate, though. But when her dad told me I was ruining her life, I let my own insecurities consume me and knew I had to set her free.
Now, I’m a defenseman for the New England Bay Sharks, living my dream. At least, that’s what everyone thinks. Inside, I’m haunted by past mistakes, wishing I had a clock to turn back time and right my wrongs.
Just as I lose hope that she’s ever coming back, she shows up in Portland, bruised and battered—claiming she was in a car accident. She isn’t the same strong-willed girl with the bright eyes she was before. No, replacing that girl is a woman in pain. A woman who’s scared. And a woman who really hates my guts.
Right away, I knew there was no car accident. No…those bruises were put on her perfect body by a monster. One that was supposed to care for and love her till the end of time.
Worried for her safety, I craft a plan to keep her safe. One that includes her living in my house while pretending to be my girlfriend. After what I did to her all those years ago, I’ll do anything to earn her forgiveness.
I may have promised her that it’s all for show and that I have no motive for wanting to keep her so close, but the truth is…I never stopped wanting her, and that’s not about to change now.
Our first meeting? He stood me up. Our second chance encounter? I told him exactly what I thought of him. Our third? It came with a bet (he lost) and an understanding that we’re stuck with one another.
It doesn’t matter that he’s Alexander Hardy—British soccer star extraordinaire, world-famous in every way, and a certified sex symbol. We come from two different worlds and live in two different realities. But all we need is one month.
The bet: Help him rehab his reputation to the media and the masses, and in exchange, he’ll help my soccer academy and the underprivileged kids who idolize him.
That doesn’t mean I have to like him. Not his delicious accent, his sexy smirk or those storm cloud gray eyes. Not his incredibly fit body or his sinfully dirty mouth. Not even the way he shows up day after day for the kids or the way he looks at me like he wants to devour me.
He looks at time spent in my world as a penance, while I look at it as a way to leverage his star power to help my academy survive.
But as the days turn to weeks, it seems we’re not as different as I once thought. The man who cares about no one, has fixed his sights on me. With his time at my academy up and his obligations back home calling, do we have a lucky shot of working out?

A sexy, small-town, grumpy-sunshine romance by bestselling author Stacy Travis
Ever heard the one about the rom-com princess who gets swept off her feet by her fake fiancé?
Yeah, that’s not my story.
I’m an actress whose reputation is currently circling the drain, thanks to a string of public relationship disasters. All I want is to adopt a baby and leave my tabloid trainwreck days behind me.
When the adoption agency doubts my ability to provide a stable home life, I agree to a fake engagement with a guy who screamed “PR-approved.”
Easy enough—until Archer Corbett blows it all to pieces.
He’s a broody, hockey-playing winemaker who makes grumbling an art form. He also hates my fake fiancé—pretty sure “douchebag” was in there somewhere—and doesn’t care who knows it. But when Archer rescues me on the side of the road and keeps me safe, I discover there’s more under his scowl than grunts and muscles.
A lot more.
Turns out, Archer has a guarded heart, a fierce loyalty to his family, and a self-sacrificing streak a mile wide. He’s also infuriatingly hot—and impossible to resist. One stolen kiss turns into carwash-steamy nights and a bond I didn’t see coming. But there’s a problem: he doesn’t want kids, and I can’t imagine a life without them.
Our lives don’t fit together. Our dreams are miles apart. But what if Archer’s exactly what I need to rewrite my story? And what if I’m the one to thaw his frozen heart?
If only this were a movie, I might get the happily ever after I’ve always wanted.
Love You Always is a standalone romance with a HEA, and it’s the anticipated final book in the Buttercup Hills series.
Stacy Travis writes spicy small-town romance about bookish, sassy women and the hot heroes who fall for them.
Writing makes her infinitely happy, but that might be the coffee talking.
She’s worked as a journalist, camp counselor, TV writer, SAT tutor, corporate finance researcher, education technology editor, and non-fiction author. When she’s not on a deadline, she’s in running shoes complaining that all roads seem to go uphill. Or on the couch with a margarita. Or fangirling at a soccer game.
She’s never met a dog she didn’t want to hug. And if you have no plans for Thanksgiving, she’ll probably invite you to dinner.
Stacy lives in Los Angeles with her two sons and a poorly-trained rescue dog who hoards socks. And she’s serious about the Thanksgiving thing.
I was born into power although what little I have is dying. Nonetheless, I’ve been protected all my life. There are myths and tales that say one day I will come to a fork in a long, long path. Either the light will take me or the dark. I never paid any mind to the whispers and warnings…
Until he crept into my window late at night.
Cloaked in darkness, silent as death. Every inch of me felt terror and yet I also felt something else. Something I’d never known.
He tasted like sin … and I loved it.
In a single moment, my entire world went dark and I was nothing more than a captive in the Underworld.
Nothing but his and suddenly all the lore brought a chill to my bones… even if he did light a fire in the most secret depths of me.
Prepare for a dark retelling of Hades and Persephone with spells and war and a love story that would change our world forevermore.
Persephone wants to reclaim her powers however she finds herself running out of options and is not sure where to turn. Her one solace is the man who comes to her in her dreams, but will he be her biggest regret or her salvation.

This is a entertaining retelling that features a man who will do anything for the woman he loves. Now that he has her he is willing to fight whatever obstacle comes their way regardless of the consequences.
Meet Willow Winters:
I started writing after having my little girl, Evie, December of
2015. All during my pregnancy with her I read. I only wanted to read romance novels and I read everything I could get my hands on. I would read a book a day — sometimes two. In January I was staying up late with her and just thinking of all these stories. They came to me constantly. I finally sat down and just started writing. I always wanted to do it so I figured, why not?
I never thought I would reach this point of success to be honest. It’s insane to me that I have connected with so many readers.
And I love each and every one of them for all of their support. I’ll be honest, some days are HARD. I have my littles during the day and I write at night. Some days are just simply exhausting and then I hear from a reader and it motivates me to push through and keep writing. I couldn’t be more grateful for this wonderful career.

My spine stiffened in outrage before I turned to face my stalker, Alessandro “Sandro” Rossi. Never mind that it was my brother Nico’s wedding. Lurking at De Lucci gatherings was nothing new to him. He’d made a sport out of it, and he continued to aggravate and confound the hell out of me.
“You’re seriously going to do this here?” I snapped.
“He doesn’t deserve you.” A muscle pulsed at his stubble-covered jaw. I kept my gaze from wandering over his tux-clad body, but I’d spied him earlier. He was hard to miss when he decided to be seen. His clothes clung to his six-four frame and the formality of the attire did nothing to leash the feral power emanating from its seams.
I raised a brow. “And you?”
“Especially not me.”
“Then I don’t see your point. We’ve been through this dance a million times, Sandro. Every time I date someone, you and your brutish self show up and scare him away.”
“That’s why they don’t deserve you.”
“Oh, and somehow you consider yourself the barometer?” I scoffed. “You’re not my father. Nor are you my brother. And newsflash, Sandro, even they don’t have a say in who I date nowadays. So what makes you think you do?”
He stepped closer and cupped my cheek in a tender gesture. Even his eyes gentled from their murderous glint earlier. “I care enough.”
I jerked my face out of his grasp. “Really?”
“I’m saving myself the trouble of having to kill someone who might hurt you.”
When Nash Pearson finds himself at the altar about to be married to a wonderful woman, what could go wrong? Exactly one he realizes the woman he’s marrying is not the woman he sees a “forever” with.
The moment he realizes he’s in love with someone else, he immediately calls off the wedding, unwilling to hurt the woman in front of him more than he already has, but knowing he needs to do the right thing.
Taylor Asher is finally in a good place. Her son, Cooper, is the light of her life, and her longtime boyfriend, Brad, is about to propose. She never expected to marry a man like Brad, especially not after co-parenting with her best friend and father of her child, Nash. The two men are unbelievably different, and she can’t help but think about all the what-ifs still surrounding her friendship with Nash…
She just needs to remember that not all dreams become reality.
When Taylor finds out Nash has called off his wedding, her hesitation about Brad intensifies. She’ll never act on her feelings for Nash because she’s given Brad her word. She’s marrying him—old, lingering feelings for the father of her child be damned.
As Nash and Taylor dance around their feelings and try to do what’s best for each other while ignoring what’s best for themselves, their son continues to bring them closer…until they are forced to face the truth that’s always been in front of they belong together.
In the ultimate friends-to-lovers story, with themes of hidden feelings, love, and tempting fate, will Nash and Taylor realize that sometimes, the best love stories are the ones you least expect? Or will they continue to ignore the everlasting love between them?
🔹Review
Nash believed he had his future planned out until the moment that he was about to marry. Realizing that his heart belonged to his best friend and the mother of their son he realizes he wants a future with her but that brings complications of its own.
Taylor thought she had her life planned as well as she believes her relationship with the man in her life will lead to marriage. Her feelings become conflicted when she realizes that Nash is suddenly single and now she must choose the future she wants.
A little drama, some angst and a friendship that was always meant to be more as Nash and Taylor finally acknowledge who they truly belong with even though there was some ups and downs along the way.
In the second book of New York Times Bestselling Author Sawyer Bennett’s Race Fever series, she turns up the heat when a familiar name looks to shake up the world of formula racing. Buckle up for this heart stopping, second chance ride in Formula Chance.
Nash Sinclair abandoned the world of formula racing after a deadly crash left him injured and on a long road to recovery, both physically and mentally. Even prior to the crash Nash was healing in another way, putting together the pieces of a broken heart. They say time heals all wounds and when Brienne Norcross, owner of the newly acquired Titans Racing team approaches him about a job, he decides it might just be time to reclaim the life he once loved.
Bexley Toliver just joined the Titans’ team as their chief race strategy engineer. As a woman working in a male-centric sport, Bex is no stranger to a man’s eyes on her. Whether it’s in silent awe, not-so-silent disgust, or somewhere in between, Bexley has earned her way. But there is one set of eyes that Bex hasn’t seen in years and when Nash Sinclair walks into the conference room for a team meeting, old memories are hard to ignore. As the heat between them becomes all-consuming, they are unable to resist the temptation to fall once again.
Bex and Nash’s history is…complicated. Young love that turned into the promise of forever crashed and burned long before the race that ended Nash’s career. Years apart dulled the pain of their failed union but some things aren’t meant to be forgotten, no matter how hard one tries. When the same issues that broke them apart re-emerge and spin them full-speed toward a barricade, Bex and Nash need to make a decision—hit the brakes and walk away or race forward to their happily ever after.
Once, I was the lead guitarist of the hit rock band, Midnight Sun. Then a tragic accident took everything from me. I can no longer play guitar, my wife left me, and the future I worked so hard for is slipping away.
All I am now is a grumpy, infamous, former rockstar.
So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that I’m not in the market for a woman, especially not Jade Cantrell—who’s as beautiful and talented as she is sweet.
Then the media pounces on a story about the two of us, and suddenly we’re zipping off to a mountain retreat and writing an album together.
I can’t keep it strictly business—no matter how hard I try.
And the more I get to know her, the more I know I don’t have any hope of keeping her out of my heart.
One night will never be enough.
I’m going to keep her forever.
When the Game Breakers meet more than hearts will be broken… They’ll claim, protect, and…maybe just rock their women’s worlds.
