Caleb Kelly has been my secret weakness since the day I moved to Sugar Brush, Wyoming.

I spend my days among the stacks as the town’s librarian and my nights serving drinks at Joy’s Elbow Room. It’s safe, predictable, and a little boring. The only thing that makes my pulse kick is when Caleb Kelly walks through the door and takes a seat at one of my tables.

Four years of stolen glances, watching him laugh with his family, listening to him talk about his son, and pretending he doesn’t unravel me just by saying my name. Alice.

Then one reckless night, I steal a kiss. And for one perfect, heart-stopping second, he kisses me back.

But the thing is, Caleb doesn’t date. He has his son, his ranch, and no room for anything—or anyone—else.

So I finally stop waiting, stop hoping, stop hiding. It’s way past time to begin living my life on my own terms.

Just as I start to move forward, trouble knocks me back. And when I need someone the most, Caleb is the one by my side again and again, standing between me and the worst of it. His steady, fierce presence is impossible to ignore.

I should know better than to keep falling for a man who told me he can’t give me more. I should walk away before I get hurt again.

It’s just that every time he shows up, every time he really sees me, every time he stays, my heart refuses to listen.

But letting him in might be the one thing I can’t come back from.

FOREVER FLAMES

Kaylene Winter

Release Date: October 13

Twenty years. One unforgettable flame. Some love stories never burn out.

I never wanted fame.

All I ever needed was her.

Stevie Hayes set my world on fire from the moment we met.

First kiss. First love. First time. The girl next door who became my whole future.

Late-night rehearsals. Promises whispered in the dark. A fire so intense it felt eternal.

She believed in me when no one else did.

Then life pulled us apart.

Different paths. Different cities. A slow unraveling I never saw coming.

I thought letting her go would set her free.

Instead, it broke us.

Years later, tragedy brings us back together.

Older now. Scarred. Still burning for something we never stopped wanting.

Old wounds resurface. Hard truths come to light.

The spark? It never left.

We were never supposed to fall apart.

Now I’ll fight like hell to put us back together.

Forever Flames is a swoon-worthy, second-chance rockstar romance packed with emotional angst, soul-deep devotion, and the kind of once-in-a-lifetime love that never truly dies.

🍀Review🍀

Stevie fell in love with Padraig when she was a teenager but their lives veered in different directions, and she made the only decision that she thought she could which was to end their relationship. In the years since she created a life for herself which included marriage and children however when tragedy strikes Padraig comes back into her life.

Padraig was torn between being part of the band with his twin brother and Stevie and he was devastated when Stevie ended their relationship. He has only ever wanted her to be happy so when tragedy strikes he is determined to be there for her and fight for their love and the future they could have together.

When Stevie and Padraig first fell in love the timing wasn’t right but when they get their second chance it is finally their time. Their journey back to each other still had it’s setbacks and challenges but the one thing that was never in doubt was the depth of their feelings for each other.

Never fan a flame

All monsters dwell in the dark, but the most dangerous ones walk in the sun.

That’s why I protected Becca from the real me.

Because when you go looking for revenge…

Sometimes, it finds you, instead.

Providence is my peace, and Becca is my anchor.

When both vanish, my “working man” persona implodes…

Leaving a cold-blooded killer with nothing to lose.

This time, there will be no lies.

No masks. No pretending.

I’m the Devil in a designer suit…

And she’s my butterfly in a jar.

New city. Old threats. High stakes.

Forty-eight hours to stop history from repeating itself.

Becca thinks she’s nothing more than a Marchesi pawn…

A tortured heart trapped in a house of kings.

If she only knew…

She’s the wildcard destined to bring them all down.

Harlow James

Release Date: October 10

Meet Harlow James:

Steamy Romance Author

Harlow James is a pen name I use to protect my identity as a high school teacher. Keeping those two roles in my life separate is necessary, but also fun! It’s like a live two lives, and anonymity gives me the opportunity to be bold and take risks in my stories.

I stumbled upon romance novels in 2018 when I picked up Driven by Kristy Bromberg, and I was obsessed. I had just lost my grandmother too, so reading offered me an escape from reality and a chance to grieve on my own terms.

About a year later, I got an idea for my own book and started writing. I researched self-publishing and jumped in with both feet. I had no idea what I was doing!

But now I’ve built a business and hobby that I LOVE! I have an outlet that’s just for me. When I write, I’m not a mom, a wife, or a teacher…I’m a woman who gets to tell stories that no one else can.

My books are the perfect blend of heartwarming moments, full-bellied laughs, and PLENTY of steam to melt your Kindles 😉 And there are always elements of me sprinkled in to every character and story that I write.

When I’m not writing you can find me reading or spending time in my kitchen. I love to cook and feed my family and friends. Otherwise, you can find me watching comedy specials with my husband, camping with our kids, or taking naps. I live for naps 😉

Fletcher Adams is not just the man that stole my heart at fifteen and never gave it back.

He’s also my brother’s best friend, and now one of the most famous players in the NFL.

But now he’s back in Blossom Peak for our mutual friend’s wedding, and guess who are the maid of honor and best man?

That would be us.

I’ve spent the past twelve years ignoring what happened between us that fateful night, and avoiding him as much as possible when he did pop into town to visit.

But now he’s everywhere.

In my salon getting a massage to support my business.

Participating in yoga to support my family’s winery.

And even hacking into my phone to monitor my glucose—which makes me furious and also a little bit weak in the knees.

Then he finds out that my ex-fiancé never satisfied me in the bedroom, so he instantly volunteers for the job.

Turns out time couldn’t snuff the flames that still burned between us.

But Fletcher has demons from his past he hasn’t faced, the kind that you can try to bury but always manage to get washed up in a storm.

And this storm just might destroy us both.

There’s one thing we can’t deny however, even though we try—feelings still matter, even after all this time.

Laney wants nothing to do with man who broke her teenage heart even if it happened years earlier. She has managed to avoid her brother’s best friend with them both playing a pivotal role in a mutual wedding means that keeping her distance is going to be difficult. This is especially true when he does everything he can to be there for her and her family when he returns to town.

Now that fate has brought them back into each other’s lives he is determined to finally claim the woman he has always wanted but that means dealing with the misunderstandings from the past.

Teddy Hamilton brings the swoon when it comes to Fletcher while Samantha Brentmoor brings out both the independent and feisty sides of Laney.

“If you kill a witch who delivers a prophecy, it won’t come to be.”

As a child, Cori delivered a prophecy that foretold all witches practicing dark magic would lose their power on a future winter solstice. When she spoke the words aloud, it put a target on her back—and tied her fate to a ticking clock.

After a decade of hiding and pushing away her magic, Cori moves to the idyllic town of Farley, Maine. She has one goal: keep her head down while counting down the days until the prophecy comes to pass. But the town—and the people that live there—are not what she expected.

When Cori meets Adrian Huxley, a local Water Elemental witch, her secret is no longer safe. The closer she gets to him, the harder it is to suppress her magic. When a visitor from the past makes her question the real reason she was sent into hiding—and the loyalty of the family she swore to protect—she realizes her life is not the only one in danger.

For fans of Spells for Forgetting and A Discovery of Witches comes a cozy, ethereal story about a witch who must face the dark truths of her past—risking everything she loves and everything she has worked for.

Betsy and Devon were once college sweethearts. Now? They’re just friends with benefits—a toxic pattern she can’t seem to break.

For years, he’s kept her close… dating other women, breaking up, and always coming back to her bed. Never offering forever. Never letting her go. Devon doesn’t want a real relationship—he just doesn’t want Betsy with anyone else.

Then she meets Conor.

Charming, confident, and everything Devon isn’t, Conor makes Betsy feel like the leading lady in her own love story—not a back-up plan. With Conor, she finds a swoony hero who actually shows up, plans dates, listens, and gives her his best instead of his leftovers. Their slow burn romance turns into something steamy, heartfelt, and impossible to ignore.

Suddenly Devon is ready to commit. But Betsy’s done waiting. Because she’s finally found the kind of protective, swoony hero romance she deserves—the kind where she’s chosen first.

A steamy, emotional friends with benefits romance with all the angst, jealous ex drama, and swoony new boyfriend energy readers crave—The Back-Up Plan is a must-read for anyone who loves second chance twists, slow burn romance with spice, and heroines who finally choose themselves.

About

❤️Review

Even though Betsy’s professional career is successful her romantic relationships are anything but.   She has been involved in an on again/off again relationship with her boyfriend from college when he finds himself between girlfriends and hasn’t been able to end it.    It is only when she meets Connor that she realizes what it truly means to be wanted.

Conor is a successful businessman who appreciates the vision that Betsy brings to a space he wants to renovate.   He hires her as his architect but wants a personal relationship as well and he brings the charm and swoon as he shows her that she is his everything.

Conor is patient, understanding and supportive as he shows Betsy that she deserves so much more than she has received from her ex and is willing to wait until she realizes it as well.

Caught in a Storm

“Happy Valentine’s Day, Mila,” he said.

“Thanks. You too.” 

Something in her tone must have given away her true feelings about the holiday, because he tightened his grip on her hand. “Not a fan?”

“It’s just another day, isn’t it?” This time, she didn’t bother to temper her words.

“I thought women loved the romance of the holiday. What the hell was that dance just about otherwise?”

Mila grimaced. “It’s only romantic for those in love.”

“I see,” he said, and she could see he did. 

“Want to know a secret?” Mila asked, the vodka she’d drunk loosening her lips more than was wise.

He nodded.

“I’ve never had a date or even gotten a kiss on Valentine’s Day.” 

“Never?”

“Never.” She was touched by his look of disbelief. It soothed the parts of her that felt undesirable as one Valentine’s Day after another passed without her finding love. 

“What’s wrong with the men in Gracemont?”

 She laughed, secretly pleased by how aghast he seemed. “Thanks for pretending it’s them, not me.”

“You really don’t see it, do you? Guess it’s up to me to correct that wrong.”

Mila didn’t have time to respond or even analyze what he meant before Boone’s hands grasped her shoulders, and he pulled her toward him. 

She gasped the moment his lips touched hers, Boone capitalizing on that by brushing his tongue against hers.

She tasted the cinnamon and apples from the pie Edith Millholland had baked.

That was the last sane thought she had as Boone deepened the kiss, claiming her lips like they were the spoils of war. 

She wrapped her arms around his neck, her fingers digging into his hair, grabbing it tight enough that Boone groaned. She immediately opened her fists, sorry for hurting him, until he murmured, “Keep holding on, darlin’,” without lifting his lips from hers.

Kade

I’ve always wanted to be a firefighter, and I never thought I would become a father, but it turns out—I’m both.

And while being a firefighter was the only career I ever wanted—being a father has become my greatest destiny in this world.

Now I need to do everything I can to protect my son, even if that means going back to my hometown. I won’t let my son down, no matter what, and I will do my duty as a fireman.

Hopefully, I can do it without everything else burning down around me.

Spencer

I never expected to see Kade again—my high school crush and my biggest heartache in adolescence.

I’m not the same person I once was. I’m stronger now. I won’t allow myself to be invisible.

I love being a teacher, and nothing will stop me from being the best one I can be. But Kade coming back into town with his adorable young son in tow—makes it a challenge.

All I can hope is to get through this school year without going back to that unsure, terrified kid.

I have to remember who I am—and when that fear comes back, threatening my newfound confidence—I hope I’ll find the courage to burn it down to the ground and come back stronger than ever.
