Being the star of the world’s most viral runaway bride video wasn’t how I envisioned my future when I woke up on my wedding morning, but here we are.
With me hiding from the world in Fiji where I’m now honeymooning solo.
And where I just tripped over my number one celebrity crush, hungover and sleeping on my little porch.
Turns out Jonas Rutherford, Razzle Dazzle movie star and heir to the entertainment conglomerate’s billions, is having his own relationship issues and is here hiding too after details of his scandalous divorce went public.
I didn’t think inviting him in for a hangover cure would lead to us getting friendly. And friendlier. And then—okay, yes.
I slept with him. Who can blame a girl? When you’re suddenly unexpectedly single and the number one guy on your freebie list is available, you leap.
But when I wake up the next morning, I discover I’m not the only runaway in my life, because he’s just ghosted me.
It’s fine. I’m fine. Neither one of us is in a position to start an actual relationship.
But three years later?
When he crashes my brother’s wedding?
Where the son that he’s just discovered he has is serving as ring bearer?
Life was a lot easier when I was just a runaway bride.
The Bride’s Runaway Billionaire is a deliciously juicy and utterly swoony romcom featuring a jaded optimist who’s had enough of the limelight, a happy-go-lucky celebrity whose world has been upside down since that fling after his divorce, the most adorable two-year-old on the planet, and a chicken with an attitude. While this book stands alone, you won’t go wrong to read The Worst Wedding Date, The Gossip and the Grump, and The Last Eligible Billionaire first.
Emma has always wanted love, marriage and family and she thought she was on that path until she realizes on her wedding day that she never really knew the man she was about to marry. When the wedding doesn’t proceed, she needs to get away so she decides to go on her honeymoon alone never expecting that she would meet the guy she has always wanted and never thought she would have. The only problem is that he left her with more than a memory.
It will be three years before he comes back into her life and realizes that they have a son together. He regrets the time that they lost and since he is at a much better time in his life, he wants a second chance but that means proving that he will protect her and their son’s hearts.
Even though their time together was short, and years have passed there is no denying the feelings between them. They both want what is best for their son and each other and that is what makes them so perfect for each other.

I Wish You Were Mine by Jessica Peterson is now live!
A smoking hot standalone romance in the small-town Harbour Village series, featuring a single dad, a nanny, and an accidental pregnancy!
I know Tuck Monroe is trouble the second I walk in to interview for the nanny position. Six-four and covered in tattoos, he’s distractingly hot. He’s also grumpy as hell. But I need to pay for school, so I take a job as his daughter’s live-in caretaker and move into the apartment above his garage.
I fall hard for Katie, his adorable four-year-old. But I never expected to fall for my new boss, who’s a decade older than I am. Turns out there’s a heart of gold beneath Tuck’s broody exterior, one I work to reveal bit by bit. Casual small talk leads to late-night conversations I can’t get enough of.
No surprise our simmering sexual tension explodes with one deep, toe-curling kiss.
He tells me I’m his good girl; I tell him I love the praise. We give ourselves one night, and one night only, to explore the fiery attraction between us.
It’s the best sex of my life. But when I wake up, Tuck is gone, and life goes back to normal. Or at least I think it does, until I start to feel nauseous. Turns out I was right: my boss is trouble. The kind that comes with one night I can’t forget and two pink lines that will change our lives forever.

Why you will love this book: 🔥Small Town 🔥Second Chance 🔥Best Friend’s Brother
I never keep secrets from my best friend, but I’m not sure how to tell her I’m sneaking around with her brother…who’s also my ex-husband.
I might be single, but I’m not ready to mingle. I should’ve stayed home from the street dance. My feet are barely surviving the two-step and my dance partners are looking for dates while I’m only interested in forgetting the man I was once married to.
The night’s about to end with bruised toes and a rain storm when the guy who swept me off my feet years ago cuts in right before the downpour starts. Wilder Knight has always been the best dance partner I’ve ever had. Just not the best husband.
Once the storm hits, we take refuge in his pickup, but that isn’t all we do. After steaming up the windows and losing my underwear, I make a habit out of hooking up with my ex-husband.
Only the longer we continue, the easier it is to see why our marriage fell apart. I couldn’t get over him the first time and losing him a second time might destroy the secure life I’ve built for myself, leaving me to ask… Were we better left an unfinished memory?
A spicy, only-one-bed, Formula 1 romance from New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg.
Surely this can’t be the only solution to overhaul my tarnished rep— faking a romance with the good girl intern?
But that’s what my agent says. Just a few months of taming my ways—of shedding Formula 1’s party boy image—will land me a lifetime branding deal. One I desperately need.
The key condition?
Pretend I’m madly in love with my new girlfriend. The quiet wallflower who I figured wouldn’t put me in my place. Yeah. This girl is anything but that.
Maddix Hart is defiant and intelligent. Loyal and real. Determined and sexy. And damn it to hell, before I know it, she’s in my head, in our bed . . . and if I’m not careful, she’ll see there’s more to me than the man I show the public. She’ll discover the man I hide from the world. The one who struggles to live up to the unrealistic expectations that should never have been mine.
All I have to do is make sure no one sees the truth behind our farce.
But instead, I let my heart get involved. I begin to believe the lie. And now with everything on the line—the deal, a championship, us—am I willing to risk it all to make her see what the rest of the world believes? That we belong together.

🏁Review🏁 Cruz is an F1 driver who is skilled on the track and has quite the reputation off the track. It is his reputation off the track which is causing difficulty with a sponsorship deal so he caves into the pressure and decides to pretend to be in a relationship. The only problem is that the meek and mild woman he chose isn’t quite what she appears.
Maddix has dreams for her future and if that includes pretending to be in a relationship with a charming and confident athlete then so be it. There is no way she will develop feelings for him due to his attitude and his reputation, but she is about to find out she couldn’t be more wrong.
When it comes to Cruz and Maddix neither is as they appear. Cruz appears to be living a life that others would envy but with it comes expectations and demands while Maddix is willing to fight for what she deserves. The more they get to know each other the deeper the feelings between them become and they couldn’t have been a better match.

From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Giana Darling comes a sapphic dark academia Medusa retelling about a woman who was wronged by her idols and refused to pay the price without getting revenge…
I was born a woman.
Raised by women.
In love with women.
Until I enrolled at Acheron University, I’d never known much of men. I certainly didn’t know enough to fear them.
Then one stormy autumnal night, Professor Morgan tried to destroy me.
And when we were discovered by the university President, it was me who was punished for the unwanted seduction.
But they left me with two valuable lessons.
I would never let another woman be hurt by men again if I could help it.
And when someone hurts you, betrays you, and tries to rip out your soul, there is only one remedy for the pain.
Revenge.
And mine takes the form of the President’s very beautiful, very virginal, very straight daughter, Luna Pallas.
Before the end of term, I’ll destroy her innocence just as her mother and Professor Morgan destroyed mine.

From USA Today and Amazon Bestselling Author Laura Pavlov, comes a new Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Standalone Sports Romance in the brand new Magnolia Falls Series.
Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty.
I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks.
She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious.
We couldn’t be more different.
Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association.
I despised her before I even knew her.
It was easier that way.
But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned.
I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried.
She was beautiful and honest and sweet.
Everything I knew I shouldn’t want.
Shouldn’t need.
They say there’s a fine line between love and hate—and I don’t know when I crossed over.
I was so wrapped up in this girl I couldn’t see straight.
She was the right hook I never saw coming.
Hating her was supposed to be my end game.
Loving her… well, that was just the beginning.
But the secrets that lived between us threatened to tear us apart.
Lucky for her—I was a born fighter.
And she was definitely worth the fight.

🥊Review🥊 After completing her schooling Demi has returned to her hometown but she is determined to forge her own path even though she comes from an affluent and powerful family. She has opened a coffee shop however Romeo, her neighbor, wants her gone but she isn’t about to let anyone, or anything stand in the way of her dream.
Romeo has a difficult past however he does have a great group of friends who are there for him even if some people hold his past against him. He is determined to ignore Demi, but he soon realizes that she is very different from her family, and he can’t imagine a future without even with all the challenges they are facing.
Even though Demi doesn’t want to hurt or disappoint anyone she is also strong and independent. As she and Demi give in to the connection between them, she is there for him every step of the way while Romeo is there for her as secrets are revealed which will shake her foundation. The romance between them is heartfelt with all the feels and theirs is a story you won’t be able to put down.
I’ve always been a wild card – the first to start a fight on the ice, and the life of the party off it – but appearances can be deceiving.
Being traded to the Boston Rebels could not have come at a better time. With serious family obligations to fulfill and a contract renewal with a new hockey team on the line, I have no time for anything else. I return to Boston knowing I need to buckle down and focus on what really matters.
But the first night I’m back in town, I come face to face with Audrey, my college calculus tutor. We had a brief fling right before I was drafted into the NHL. Now, her five year old son is standing by her side, and I don’t need a tutor to do that kind of math.
Audrey insists she doesn’t want me involved in Graham’s life unless I can commit to being a dad. With everything else going on, this is the worst possible timing.
But every minute I spend with Graham and Audrey feels exactly right, and I’m left questioning everything I thought I wanted.
Because now my goals are shifting, and getting what I really want might come at the expense of the game I’ve given my entire life to.

𝐍𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐝 by Jennifer Sucevic is coming to Amazon and into Kindle Unlimited in one more day!
There was a time when my world revolved around him, and I’d foolishly thought he’d be the one to claim all my firsts. Those dreams shattered into a million jagged pieces when the unthinkable happened.
Five years later and we both attend the same college. He’s a superstar goaltender for the Western Wildcats with a ticket to the NHL. I’m just trying to make it through the last year and a half of college all the while doing my best to avoid him.
Wolf has decided that it’s time for us to get reacquainted. As far as I’m concerned, he can shove that idea where the sun doesn’t shine.
Better yet, he can bend over, and I’ll happily do it for him.
He might not realize it, but my life is splintering apart at the seams. My parents have lost everything and can’t pay my tuition for the second semester, which means I need to figure something out.
Fast.
Or I’ll be forced to drop out and move back home.
Unwilling to allow that to happen, I decide to sell the only thing I have of value.

When I find a stray dog roaming the streets of Seattle, the last place I expect to end up is in the office of a grumpy veterinarian—the one woman who can resist my charm. Twin to my teammate’s girlfriend, Rory is full of fire, but I’m not afraid of her flame.
It doesn’t take long for me to realize that the more time we spend together, the more I want it to last. But no matter how hard I try, Rory only sees me as a playboy, refusing to take me seriously.
One weekend trip to a cabin later, I think I have my in…but only if I can get her to admit her feelings toward me aren’t all bad.
Only one of us will win this face-off, and I intend for it to be me.

TEAGAN HUNTER writes steamy romantic comedies with lots of sarcasm and a side of heart. She loves pizza, hockey, and romance novels, though not in that order. When not writing, you can find her watching entirely too many hours of Supernatural, One Tree Hill, or New Girl. She’s mildly obsessed with Halloween and prefers cooler weather. She married her high school sweetheart, and they currently live in the PNW.
Lawson is a professional hockey player who always puts others first. He is always there to lend a helping hand so it is only natural that when he sees an injured dog not only does he bring him to vet, but he now finds himself adopted by this same dog.
Rory doesn’t allow many people close, but she will do anything for animals and hold nothing back. She believes that she will be able to hold Lawson at a distance, but nothing could have prepared her for his perseverance, and he only wanted to be there for her and was willing to take what she would give him.
Lawson and Rory were so much fun together and the interactions between them were both humorous and hot. Lawson is a man that any woman would be lucky to have in her life and I enjoyed seeing Rory realize it as well.
