With Seifiek missing and Axel biding his time, I’ll delve into my studies for as long as I’m allowed at the Academy—or as long as I can survive. There’s a dark secret within the Collegium, one that I need to understand if Rowa, Zeke, and I are going to make it out on the other side of this mess and new enemies are fighting me every step of the way.
The worst being a third powerful male who has set his sights on me. He is delighted by the realms on the verge of war. Chaos is his home and madness is his bedmate.
He’s as ancient as time itself and he’s set the future on a course where I’ll become his queen.
They say nice guys finish last, and that’s certainly been the case for me. At least, when it comes to love. As a professional hockey player, I’m a winner.
In dating, though, I’m a dud.
I don’t know why. They say I’m good-looking.
Maybe I need more of an edge.
Or maybe I just need to find the right girl.

Willa

Hey, I couldn’t make him leave.
No way! He’s too damn hot.
Now that I think about it, maybe he’s the distraction I need.

Falling for a man who’s forcing me to marry him makes me sound weak. And in our world, the last thing a woman wants is to feel weak.
Brielle
Kane Morgan was never supposed to be anything more than one reckless night.
Turns out, he’s the enemy, and he knew exactly who I was when he was making me forget my name—while screaming his.
Now, Kane wants more than just revenge on my family. He wants me as his wife.
After a lifetime of heartache, all I want is to marry for love.
But Kane’s ripping that dream away, forcing me into a marriage of revenge.
He’s cold, ruthless, and calculating, and yet he’s everything I can’t seem to resist.
Because when we’re alone, he shows me a different side of him.
I hate that he comforts me when my past creeps into my nightmares. That he believes in my dreams. And most of all, that every stolen moment with him feels like it could put my broken pieces back together.
I shouldn’t be falling for my new husband. He gives me everything I’ve ever wanted … except the one thing I long for—his heart.
“Leave me alone,” I hissed, tugging at Jay’s arm. Where had he come from? He’d just been fighting Kane.
“I don’t think you want me to, do you?” he purred, low, right against my ear, and I…I stopped struggling. He hummed, his lips skimming over my lobe. “Thought so.”
“What the fuck are you doing?” My words were angry, and I was angry—with myself. I didn’t want to like the feel of him against me, to wish that instead of the bare brushes of his mouth on my skin, he was kissing me until I lost my breath.
He exhaled sharply. “I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing. You’re going to be an engaged woman tomorrow, and I can’t—” Cutting himself off, he dipped his head, his fingers curling around my hood to pull it back so he could press his lips against my throat.
“Can’t what?” I whispered.
“Do this.” He pressed another kiss against my skin. His hand slid under my hoodie, with just the thin fabric of my T-shirt providing a barrier between the warmth of his palm and my stomach.
“W-why do you even want to do this? You hate me. I hate you.” The words tasted bitter on my tongue, my body betraying me as I pressed into his touch. “I’m promised to Anton.”
Withdrawing his hand from my hoodie, he covered my mouth. “Don’t speak his name. Just pretend. Pretend we don’t hate each other.”
“I’ve got to get Julian’s booster.” I turned toward the van, sticking a hand in my purse and rummaging for my keys. “No need. I got one.” Lips pursed, I turned back to him. “Here.” He opened the back door, and sure enough, there was a booster. I strode to the door and examined it. “That’s the same.” “Yes. The same one you have. I saw it while I was at Costmart and grabbed it, figured it would be easier.” Blinking, I turned to him, my brain not quite understanding. “Got snacks too.” Julian wandered to Josh’s side. “Is Wayne coming?” Ducking, he shook his head. “He’s keeping Jasper and Vincent company while we’re gone. Since we need my truck to haul the pumpkin back, there isn’t enough room. Julian’s whole body sagged with disappointment. “But he’ll help us build our boat, don’t worry.” The truck was equipped with snacks, water, blankets, and a few extra hoodies. Well-worn hoodies that looked so cozy I wished I could slip one on now, then take it home with me. “Why do you have so many snacks?” Maggie asked. “Cause kids eat a lot,” he replied, eyeing her in the mirror. Ellie shrugged. “Accurate.” We hadn’t even driven outside town limits before they were digging in. “Mom,” Julian shouted far louder than necessary. “He has cucumbers. Cut in circles, not sticks.” I turned in my seat, and sure enough, Josh had procured cucumbers, Julian’s favorite, and had cut them with precision. “He got my crackers too.” Heart thudding, I eyed the man beside me. “How did you know which foods were Julian’s safe foods?” His focus was on the road, his fingers tapping the steering wheel. “I noticed and took a photo of the box with my phone. Didn’t want to mess it up for him.”
I can’t be in love, so I’m just going to pretend the curvy, sunshine goddess who stole my heart doesn’t exist. No sweat.
Max I refuse to become another story for Duhring Park’s ridiculous love at first sight myth, but lord help me, I need Aubrey like I need air. Self-preservation makes me mean and growly when she’s around, but that’s what happens when I’ve been dreaming about a woman I can’t have every day and night for a year. Her beautiful smile, her soft, curvy body. Her desserts that taste like sunshine and heaven. I cannot be in love, and yet, my heart begs to differ.
Aubrey Max Miller is a grumpy, growly, jerk. I hate his perfect smile. The one he gives to everyone but me. And his stupid handsome face that shows up in every single one of my nightly fantasies. His muscles are gross. And dumb. And yet, my entire body throbs with burning passion that I can’t explain, because I hate him. Except when he tries to kiss me. How do I convince my heart… and other areas of my body that we are not open for business?

❤️ Review Even though Max was drawn to Aubrey from their first meeting he refused to act on it. Instead for the last year he barely speaks or looks at her. When her friends sign her up for a dating sight he knows he needs to declare his feelings before it is too late.
Aubrey isn’t sure what she has done to irritate Max so much however he is friendly with everyone except for her. A misunderstanding drives them even further apart until Max shows her how he has always felt about her.
The helping hands of their friends made the story even more fun as Max and Aubrey finally acknowledge how they feel about each other and get the happiness they both deserve.
Gideon had been dreaming and dreaming and dreaming, a dream he never seemed to able to wake from. And to call it a dream was as broken a description as a child could crayon draw. A nightmare mired in the macabre was the signpost planted in the blood of its concrete. A nightmare shivving his spine and soul with every moment it crawled forward
It was filled with all those he loved, calling for him, pleading, screaming, to save them, to help them and yet he could do nothing but sleep, nothing but dream, circling on repeat over and over again.
And the images were a caricature of a reality cracked in madness, Shira and So’Sha, grown, blades and death in their eyes, Shadow and Moon standing on two legs, L’Sana and Ari in a cage dreaming their own dreams, chained in their own devils, flashing images of a universe at war with itself, the Shadowborn whispering again and again ‘Soon Gideon, soon….be ready..”
He wanted to shatter his prison, wanted to howl, wanted to reach out to those that were his world, his everything but only sleep and dream, sleep and dream…the true War had come and he was drowning within his own mind, choking on the detritus of impotency, eternity in chains that didn’t give a shit.
“I will slaughter them all!!”
Gideon would wake and people would die, a thousand times over they would die!!!
He screamed this at himself, over and over, lost in the dream, in the macabre broken of breaking. It was the prayer he kept lamenting to no-one, kept spitting into the pillow of his insanity as the bars to his cage, tightened, crushing his flesh and his hope, endlessly cruel, endlessly ambivalent.
He would wake, a promise, and a killer would come with him.

My life was boring, so I decided to shake it up a bit.
With my life at the ranch changing by the minute, and not for the better, it seemed I would never find any excitement to fill my days.
They say to be careful what you wish for, and I learned that the hard way.
Walking in on a stranger trying on my teal coat, only to find out we slept together, was a shocker.
I didn’t remember a single second of how we met or what happened after.
Neither did he.
But apparently, everyone in town knew our business.
And the secret we were carrying around.
But before I got a chance to tell my new man any of this, things took a strange turn.
Bullets flying, men attacking every hour of the day, and neither of us had any idea why.
And that was just the bad stuff.
There was an undeniable chemistry between us, and keeping our hands to ourselves turned out to be harder than I thought.
But the infuriating man was insistent on keeping me safe.
And the whole time, all I really wanted to say was Shut Up and Kiss Me.

Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review – “Some of her best writing…Holy cow, this book! I was immediately immersed in Murky Falls! I could not put this book down. Im excited to read the rest of the series!”
Real Good Man ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review from C. Luna – “Real Good Man by Giulia Lagomarsino is the kind of small-town romance that sneaks past your defenses with humor, heart, and a slow-burn love you didn’t see coming—but end up rooting for with your whole chest.”
How Forever Feels ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review – “This author never fails to entertain. Her characters come to life. You live their emotions. Every. Book is it’s own adventure. Next book please!”
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.
Lisa Suzanne has revealed the narrators for Left Field!
Narrated by: Tyler Darby & Celia Stone
Releasing June 8, 2026
Left Field is a spicy pro baseball, forced proximity, vacation romance from Amazon Top Ten Bestselling author Lisa Suzanne.
After accepting an offer from a luxury resort in the Bahamas, my dream of becoming a travel influencer is finally within reach. I just need one thing to make me stand out…like the pro baseball player I run into on my first night.
Archer Bradley is here for the opposite. He doesn’t want attention. He definitely doesn’t want me crashing his dinner with a smile and a camera. He’s broody and distant, but he’s also hot and charming. One night tangled in his sheets has me addicted.
When he finds out what I do, he makes me promise not to feature him. And the more time I spend with him, the easier it becomes to respect that boundary-especially as he starts to see the real me behind my camera-ready smile.
I didn’t come here to fall for some athlete, but somewhere between couples’ yoga and sunset walks on the beach, I did.
Now I have to choose between the career I’ve worked for my entire life and the love that slammed into me straight out of left field.
Note to self: falling for the boss is complicated.
Sierra Taking a job as a live-in housekeeper at the sprawling Stone Hawke Ranch in Texas was supposed to be a simple fresh start. I certainly didn’t plan on my new boss, Rogan Hawke, being a rugged, ridiculously handsome cowboy who makes my knees weak.
There’s just one problem: he’s infuriating.
Instead of actually having a conversation with me, the man communicates entirely through annoying, bossy chore notes scattered around the house. Finally, I’ve had enough. In a moment of sheer frustration,
I leave a blistering, snarky reply right on his pillow.
I expected him to fire me. I definitely didn’t expect his next note to be blush-inducing.
Rogan When my assistant hired a new housekeeper, I was expecting a sweet grandmother type. But I got Sierra Spencer.
Curvy, gorgeous, and armed with enough sass to bring a man to his knees, one look at her and I completely lose my mind. Actually, I lose my ability to speak, too. Every time she’s in the room, my brain short-circuits and I get so tongue-tied I have to flee. My brilliant solution? Avoid her at all costs and leave lists of chores so the house keeps running.
But when I find her sarcastic, fiery note waiting for me on my pillow, the last thread of my restraint snaps. I realize there is absolutely no way I can fight my feelings for her anymore. If my beautiful housekeeper wants to pass notes, we can pass notes. But from now on, I’m telling her exactly what I want to do to her. Falling in love wasn’t part of the plan for these feisty heroines, especially not via letter, text, and email. But when they find themselves in a war of words with four delicious alphas, their plans go awry in unexpected ways.
These over-the-top men are determined to write their way to happily-ever-after, and they aren’t taking any prisoners along the way. But when things move off the page to reality, not even they are prepared for the sparks that fly and the chaos that ensues.
Letters in Love is a spicy rom-com series featuring a bossy hockey star, a gorgeous mafia boss, a growly cowboy, and a protective mountain man.
💌Review💌 When Rogan meets his new housekeeper he wasn’t expecting the beautiful woman that was standing in front of him. He knows he needs to keep his distance until he can adjust to the feelings he has for he decides to give her the tasks he wants her to complete by post it notes. He thought they could continue with that method until she responds with a note of her own.
The housekeeping job is exactly what Sierra needs as not only does it pay well but it gives her a place to stay as well. She doesn’t know why he is keeping her distance but the one thing she does know is she isn’t about to let it continue.
The notes they exchange are entertaining and once Rogan stops denying his feelings there is no going back as they give each other what was missing in their lives.
Nakira Williams has been different her entire life. She’s heard the whispers of witch, but never gave those claims credence until she turned eighteen and the visions started. Everything changed. She’d met her mate and learned about the shifters in the town she’s lived in her whole life—where there were even whispers that she was a witch. Other than the cursed visions, she’d no real magical powers. Plus, magic didn’t exist. But learning about shifters and being someone’s mate, has triggered a different vision. No longer did she see her newfound mate dying, but one that affected his pack. War was coming. A war aimed at wiping out the Springlake Pines Pack once and for all.
Devin James is next in line for Alpha of the Springlake Pines Pack, but he’s confident he won’t have to take up that mantle until years from now. He’s found his mate, Nakira, at a young age and has been living out his dream of being a college football star. For the last three years, she’s told him war is coming to the Springlake Pines Pack. That he’s going to die if they can’t stop it, without knowing when or who. But Devin’s wolf is a beast and will do whatever he can not to let that happen and it starts with claiming his mate.
Until now. Nakira’s new vision prompts the Wolf Prince to finally come home. His wolf is a monster that after years of keeping chained, must be unleashed if they are to survive.
Only together can he and Nakira defeat what’s coming to exterminate the Springlake Pines Pack.
