Lilah

I was left for dead when I was eighteen.

Coming to Mustang Creek Ranch gave me something to live for.

My boss is grumpy and reclusive.

But I’m secretly in love with him, even though he’s made it known he’ll never settle down.

Even though he’s made it clear, he’ll never be mine-or anyone’s.

Emmett

I’ve kept my distance from Lilah for years. No matter how much I want her, she’s off-limits.

The only family I will ever have are the ones I fought beside in battle-the family I chose.

Until the phone rang and I found out I had an eight-year-old daughter.

Watching Lilah with my daughter makes me wonder what it would be like to do the thing I swore I never would: have a family and fall in love.

When I move her into my house to keep her safe from the dangers of her past, all bets are off.

THE SINGLE DAD DILEMMA by @kat.savage releasing May 5!

https://books2read.com/thesingledaddilemma

Why you will love this book…

🩵Age Gap 

💛Single Dad x Nanny
🩵He’s a Tattoo Artist
💛She’s a Grad Student

From USA Today Bestselling Author Kat Savage, comes a brand-new spinoff series: Family of Misfits! If you fell in love with the found family in the Men of Bird’s Eye series, travel south to Nashville, where the second studio location is up and running under the ownership of a familiar face with a new crew of artists!

Ridge Jessup is many things—an award-winning tattoo artist with celebrity clientele, the manager of the Bird’s Eye Tattoo Studio Nashville location… oh, and a thirty-five-year-old single father to a rowdy little girl.

With work getting busier, convention season coming up, and his daughter booted from her third daycare this month, he’s in desperate need of summer help. Forget about having a personal life or dating—he’s just trying to survive.

Darcy Anderson is a handful of credits short of her degree and broke. The college fund her grandmother left her didn’t withstand the test of time or inflation.

When she sees an ad for a summer nannying job, it seems perfect—one kid, weekdays only, and compensation well above average. It almost seems too good to be true.

The moment Ridge lays eyes on Darcy, he really doesn’t want to give her the job. She’s hot, smart, and funny—a dangerous combination that feels disastrous—especially with the ten-year age gap between them. But of all the candidates interviewed, his daughter only likes her. It’s a real dilemma.

Despite his best efforts to keep their relationship professional, things get hot and heavy as complications continue to mount. Darcy finds herself torn—her practical brain still preparing for the perfectly planned future she envisioned for herself while her fairytale-loving heart is looking to override everything for a single dad and his little girl she doesn’t want to walk away from.

EXCERPT

 

“How about we discuss this somewhere more private? I have a table reserved in that dark corner.” My thumb hitches in the general direction.

“I’m not going anywhere with you.” Paisley plants her boots into the concrete floor for emphasis.

“You’d rather get more intimate where everyone can see?” I step forward until our bodies nearly brush. “Fine by me.”

Her breath hitches at our proximity. She glances from left to right, most likely noticing the attention we’re gathering. “What are you doing?”

“Setting the mood.”

Baby blues widen at me. “You’re making a scene.”

“Then put an end to it,” I urge.

Her unblinking gaze narrows into a glare. “You’re doing this on purpose.”

I shrug. “Let them talk.” Maybe the rumor mill will be somewhat useful tonight after all.

“Nope, you’re not using me as a pawn.” Paisley shoos me toward the door. “Buh-bye.”

I loop an arm around her waist, tugging until she’s flush against me. “I’m not leaving without you, Twinkles.”

Her palms press flat on my chest, ready to shove me away. The slight curl in her fingertips is the only sign of hesitation. Our eyes lock and hold. One breath extends into two. Her body presses closer to mine with every ragged exhale. The buzz around us goes quiet. I search her gaze while she gets lost in mine. My heartbeat quickens under her touch. Warmth spreads between us.

The urge to pull her even tighter against me flexes my arm. Paisley blinks, casting her gaze around the crowded room. Red blooms on her cheeks and she breaks free from my hold. I release her but my eyes remain glued on her fiery blush. There’s no hiding her reaction.

“You’re playing dirty,” she mutters.

“Whatever makes you mine.”

“Never gonna happen.”

“No?” In a fluid motion, I remove my cowboy hat and put it on her head. A collective gasp ripples across the bar. I smirk as the gossips prepare to do their thing. “The town will say otherwise.”

They say to marry your best friend. So that’s what I did. But what no one knows is that it’s not even real—it’s a marriage of convenience.

Too bad she sees me only as a friend.

Easton Sonden was my teenage crush. But then we went our separate ways. He went on to greatness, becoming a star hockey player, while I had my own life. Until we reunited.
Now he’s my husband!
How lucky did I get? Easton is gorgeous, sweet, and has a body made for sin. And now he’s all mine.
Well, not really. Our marriage is a sham.
But I don’t want it to be—I want more. I’m afraid to tell him, though. What if he doesn’t feel the same way?

Cover Reveals ❤️‍🔥

R.C. Stephens has revealed the covers for One Timer With A Wingman!

Releasing May 7, 2025

Alone, broke, and pregnant was not how I envisioned my junior year of college. Neither was Aaron Murray, hockey wingman and campus heartbreaker. 

He’s the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen–and now he’s crashing my vacation. 

 Even worse, he ends up sitting next to me on the plane. I can’t escape his cocky demeanor… or his gorgeous green eyes–at least for the next four hours. 

 When turbulence hits, I panic, convinced we’re going down. 

I blurt my bucket list to him–including the humiliating fact I’ve never experienced the big O. 

 Once we land in paradise, my little confession becomes a challenge to him and now he’s determined to help me check items off my list.

 Slowly he chips away at my defenses until I can’t resist him. 

We agree to a fling–no strings, no regrets.

 But Aaron is more than I expected. He’s kind, attentive, and too good in bed. 

 I should have known a few reckless days and nights in paradise would come with consequences. 

 Because when I get back to Riverside U, I realize the campus heartbreaker left me with something to remember him by… two pink lines.

Releasing: October 14, 2025

Cover Design: RBA Designs, Letitia Hasser

Photographer: Michelle Lancaster

The only way an alpha billionaire can hold on to the perfect woman is to keep his identity a secret in an emotional and blisteringly hot romance by USA Today bestselling author Marni Mann.

Maya and Jordan can’t keep their eyes off one another. They see each other on their daily runs, exchanging heated glances and lingering smiles are just part of their routine. What’s not to notice? Maya with her perfect body and teasing smile. Jordan, a former professional hockey player, with his chiseled muscles and undeniable alpha personality. First comes the hello, then a kiss, followed by an uninhibited desire that sets their mornings on fire.

Jordan normally doesn’t date, but this Boston nurse is a beauty he wants to know inside and out. She’s gorgeous, sassy, and someone who keeps him on his toes. He’s falling fast. She is too. There’s just one problem: Maya loathes the rich. She has her reasons. She also has no idea that Jordan is actually a billionaire CEO who owns the most expensive penthouse in the city, a collection of exotic cars, and half of Boston.

The only way for this grumpy alphahole to hold on to Maya is to keep his secret hidden. Because once the truth is out, everything about this addictive, sensuous, once-in-a-lifetime connection will come crashing down.

Maggie
One wild night to lose myself… instead, I accidentally found myself a baby daddy.
After my ex spent years tearing me down, convincing me I wasn’t enough, the idea of trusting anyone feels impossible. But Lachlan comes into my life and almost makes me believe I’m worth it… and that he’s worth the risk.
He’s so patient and steady, showing up at my door for midnight cravings and morning sickness. Determined to be a part of our child’s life, even if we’re not together.
I’m so tired of being alone, and having someone feels too good to be true.
So when he asks “can we try?” I want to say yes and believe him.
Lachlan
From the first moment I met Maggie, I knew she was one of the good ones.
But it wasn’t until I heard the life-altering news that she was carrying my baby, that I knew I’d support her no matter if we were “together” or not.
I’m all in—for her and the baby. But somewhere along the way, it stopped being about doing the right thing.
I don’t just want to be a part of my child’s life. I want to be part of hers. Not just for nine months. Or eighteen years. I want forever.
And I’ll do whatever it takes to prove that I’m man enough to be what she needs. For both of them.

🧡Review🧡

The night that Lachlan spent with Maggie was a culmination of his escalating feelings for her, but he also understood that she wasn’t ready for more. He was prepared to put that night aside to maintain their friendship, but fate had other ideas when he finds out they are about to become parents. Now he is determined to show her that they belong together not because of the baby but because of their feelings for each other.

Maggie’s past has left a lasting impression on her and doesn’t believe that she can have more than one night with Lachlan. Finding out she is pregnant changes everything as rather than him letting her absolve him of any responsibility he is there every step of the way showing her how she deserves to be loved and treasured.

The relationship between Lachlan and Maggie was enchanting and the depth of their feelings for each other never in doubt even if Maggie was cautious. As always the camaraderie between this group of friends not only adds humor but so many feels as well.

Madam Alana

“I don’t understand. Why are my eyes blank?” I frowned while I took in the nuance of my hollowed cheeks and the pinch of my brow as though my imaginary self was pained.
“They are not blank. They are empty.” His response was soft, alluding to a much deeper meaning.
“And why am I holding my heart?” My voice trembled along with my bottom lip. My nose itched and I felt the tip tingling with the telltale signal that tears would surely follow.
“You aren’t holding it, cheri. Your subconscious is offering it unceremoniously.”
My gaze snapped to the image and then back to his soulful one. “Why would I do that?” I whispered, fearful of his answer.
“Because you don’t know its value. That’s why your eyes are empty. You know not what you give of yourself. Soon you will understand your worth, and that image will change. I will help you see the importance of gifting such a piece of you. A piece I intend to own and hold most dear.”
My nose started to run, and I wiped it with the back of my hand. “I don’t understand. You speak in velvet-coated riddles. It confuses me.”
He stared mutely at me for a full minute, the air between us palpable as though it lived and breathed, gliding along every surface of exposed skin to tease and taunt.
“And one day, when you have let your guard down and offered your heart and soul for my safe keeping, you will understand.”
“And if I don’t?” I challenged, not intending to ever give anyone my heart. Not the real me.
“You will.” He stared back, looking stoic and calm.
“But if I don’t? What happens then?” My voice rose, a hint of frustration clear in my response.
His shoulders fell and he tilted his head as though resigned. “Then we will both be sad, because we will have lost what could have been the greatest love of all time.”

Take the Bride

She studied him through lowered lashes, knowing that they hadn’t yet had the much-needed conversation about their past. Given that she wasn’t ready to go home and face the ramifications of a canceled wedding, they had time before they dug that deep.
But they were here together now. “You’re crazy,” she muttered.
He grinned. “Can’t say I haven’t thought the same thing myself after yesterday. But in that moment, I couldn’t stand by and lose you forever.” He rose to his feet, picked up the tray, and put it back on the table, returning to her side of the bed and sitting down beside her.
He grasped her hand, holding her palm in his. “I always considered you mine, even after I let you go. I just didn’t let myself go there again.”

The Marriage Arrangement

“I don’t need to trust anyone but myself.”
Those shrewd, dark eyes glinted with intention. She leaned across the table, startling him when she clasped his hand. Her skin was warm and rough and comforting, the touch of a mother, nurturing and strong at the same time. “Ah, but that is a trap. We all need someone to trust.” She paused and squinted, looking deeper into his eyes. “You have many ghosts you are fighting, no?”
Shock kept him silent for a moment. He tried to force a laugh, but his voice got stuck. A strange foreboding rose up from inside him, urging him to tell her the truth. “Yes,” he finally said. “But I’ve got them under control.”
Her gaze ripped and shredded the lies away. “You and Cat seem to have a connection.”
“Yes,” he said again.
She nodded, her fingers squeezing his hard. “Then you will need to fight for her,” she said. “Do not be afraid to love. Sometimes it’s the only thing that keeps the ghosts away. Capisce?”

Silent Bite

Oliver’s hands roamed her body, his fingers caressing her just like his tongue did. Warmth and desire filled her, rushing through her body like a flashflood. Her entire body tingled pleasantly, and the place between her legs hummed, yearning for a touch. His touch. His kiss. She’d never believed that love could be like this: all consuming, passionate, while at the same time comforting and safe. Yet she felt safe, safe with a vampire, the very creature she had once feared. Oliver had made her forget all her fears and shown her that even a vampire could love.
She felt his love now. It burned brightly and steadily. With every touch and every kiss, she felt it. And tonight, after the ceremony, she would feel it in his bite. His loving bite, how lovingly and silently, he would make her his forever. How he would bestow immortality on her without robbing her of her humanity. How he would make himself vulnerable because once they blood-bonded, Oliver could only feed off her. His body would reject all other blood. In fact, it would make him violently ill if he ever drank blood other than hers.
For a vampire to bond himself to a human required ultimate trust. She felt that trust between them.

The Only Thing That’s Real is book three in the Only in Goose Hollow series by USA Today Bestselling author Lisa Shelby! In this interconnected standalone, take a trip back to Goose Hollow and go on tour with the Hollow Knocks!

Ryan Staley has got to go.

We hired the beautiful, fierce journalist to chronicle my band’s farewell tour.

But that was before my life blew up.

Before every stage I performed on became shrouded in the shame of my secret.

A secret I haven’t even shared with my bandmates, my chosen family.

Now is not the time for deep-diving questions about my life, but Ryan is around every corner I turn and refuses to be intimidated or ignored.

She wants to know what I’ll do when my touring career comes to a screeching halt, and I move back to the small town I couldn’t run away from fast enough.

A town I can no longer avoid.

But Ryan has claimed every spare thought in my head. Her lips, hypnotizing to the point of distraction. The perfect rasp of her voice, sending chills down my spine, asking questions I can’t answer, and making me risk spilling all my secrets.

Ryan Staley has got to go.

“I’m here to see my fiancé. I believe you know Parker, Dad…”

That sentence seems innocent enough in the right setting.

But the woman’s father? Yeah, he happens to be my boss.

The first time I met Cashlynn O’Neil, she thought she was going to die before the plane we were on ever left the ground.

So I did what any gentleman would do—I comforted her, kept her distracted, and then later that night, she ended up back in my hotel room to thank me.

But then a year later she waltzed in the Carrington Cove Animal Hospital and told her father we were engaged.

And that would have been harmless, except the last time I was engaged it left me scarred beyond repair, vowing never to entertain the idea of love again.

I can’t fall for my boss’s daughter.

I can’t keep lying to myself about how I feel either.

But is it possible that someday you learn that it’s not the wrong person that will make you question what you want in life, but it’s the right one?

And is Cashlynn the right woman for me?

🏒 Hockey Romance

👶🏻 Single Dad/Biker Girl

🐈‍⬛ Black Cat/Grumpy NHL Captain

🥰 Age Gap

❌No Third Act Break Up

💞Found Family

Blurb:

The plan was simple: just me, my boy and hockey.

I’m the unapproachable NHL captain with a reputation for chewing up reporters in interviews, forwards on the ice and shutting down anyone who tries to get close to me. And that’s how I like it—no feelings, no complications, and zero chance of reliving the grief I experienced when my wife passed away seven years ago.

But sometimes the best laid plans go up in flames, and that’s exactly what Collins Mackenzie does when strolls into a bar one post-game night and gives me a taste of the cold shoulder I’ve bestowed on all those around me.

The only person she doesn’t dismiss? My boy. In fact, she lights him up with her pink hair and perfectly winged eyeliner, leaving him fascinated and me infatuated.

There’s only one problem: she’s nine years younger, convinced I’m not her type and doesn’t do relationships. She doesn’t even hang around in the same city beyond a few months. Trouble is, I want her permanence right next to me—on the couch watching movies and in my bed on lazy mornings.

I’m ready to chase her, no matter where she goes or how quickly she hits the accelerator.  This girl is a ride I never want to get off.

Why you will love this book…
💕Small Town
🔥Age Gap
💕Ex Boyfriend’s Dad
🔥Single Mom x Single Dad
💕Grumpy Sunshine
🔥Daddy Kink
💕She Falls First/He Falls Harder
🔥Baker
💕Blue Collar
🔥Forced Proximity

I’m pretty in pink dipped in sunshine and sweet Southern smiles.
He’s blue collar wrapped up in a gruff summer storm with a scowl.
He also happens to be my ex-boyfriend’s dad.
Not only is Conway Levine grumpy, arrogant, and entirely too handsome for his own good, with the salt and pepper scruff lining his sharp jawline and his thick, corded arms, but he also had a front row seat fourteen years ago to a drunken night so mortifying I can’t look him in the eye without feeling the shame all over again.
Living in a small town makes avoiding him impossible, even more when you add in the fact that his daughter is friends with mine.
When a little tardiness and a whole lot of bad luck lands me partnering with him at our children’s school, I’m certain I won’t survive.
Before I know it, the dread from having to work with him turns into a burning desire impossible to ignore when his once stone cold demeanor shifts into longing, heated stares, and somehow, he knows all the right things to whisper in my ear to get under my skin… and my dress.
Between his filthy mouth and stifling need to devour me any chance he gets, the chemistry we share between the sheets quickly becomes something out of my wildest dreams.
Except Conway doesn’t do relationships, and I’m not built for casual.
But I couldn’t quit him even if I tried.
When all is said and done, will I be able to protect my already tattered heart or will it end up shattered into a million beautiful, messy pieces?

Always Salty 🖤 Available Now

Title: Always Salty
Series: Semyonov Bratva #4
Author: Lani Lynn Vale
Genre: Mafia Romance
Tropes: Anti Hero/Stalker Hero/Walking Red Flag
Release Date: April 8, 2025
BLURB
Was it considered stalking if the woman you were stalking liked the idea of being stalked?
It started out like any other job.
My brother, the head of the Russian Mafia, wanted me to delete an opponent. Like the good brother I was, I decided to give him what he wanted.
In doing so, I ended up finding a woman that made my cold, dead heart start to beat again.
One day while doing some reconnaissance on my target, I happen to overhear Keely telling her friend one of her darkest fantasies, and I decide that I’d be the one fulfilling that particular craving for her.
I tell myself that it’s only once. I’d give in to that darkness inside of me once, and I’ll leave her alone from then on.
Except, once turns into twice. And twice turns into way too many to count.
Just when I plan to cut all ties so she doesn’t start to develop feelings for a killer, I find out that Keely doesn’t have just one stalker. She has two. And the one that wasn’t me wanted her dead, and I couldn’t allow that to happen.
Not to her.
Not to the woman that not only chased my demons away, but also didn’t care that I had them in the first place.

🖤Review🖤

Keely has experienced things that no one should have to and it changed her.    The close relationship she shares with her brothers has only become stronger because of what they had been through.    Any other woman would have run the other way when it comes to Dima and his antics, but she understands him in a way that no one else can.

Dima is a man who is also changed because of his time serving his country and being a Semyonov.   He has his own version of right and wrong so when Keely comes into his life there is nothing he won’t do to keep her safe and be the man she needs.

The characters of Keely and Dima are captivating and although their relationship was unconventional they were a perfect match.    Catching up with Dima’s family and getting to spend some time with Keely’s brother only made this story even better.

Tactically Acquired 🎉 Cover Reveal

Title: Tactically Acquired

Series: Owens Protective Services Book 28
Author: Giulia Lagomarsino
Genre: Romantic Suspense; Alpha Romance
Release Date: April 21, 2025
Cover Design: T.E. Black Designs
Photographer: RplusM Photo


Tactically acquired:

The unauthorized acquisition of equipment or materials.

Sometimes that refers to clients as well.
When we took this job, it was supposed to be a simple pickup. That all went to hell the moment we stepped onto the tarmac and found bullet casings instead of the actor and actress who were supposed to be returning to Kansas with us for a “real-life training scenario”.
If anyone questioned why a person might kidnap Audrey Leigh at gunpoint, all they had to do was wait for her to open her mouth. Full of sass and spice, this woman drove me freaking insane.

Sorry, you have to be the close protection agent on this one.

My teammates were supposed to have my back, but instead, they tossed me into the lion’s den with a woman who would be damn near impossible to resist. That leather outfit was made for sinning, but then again, so was her mouth. She was a temptation I needed to avoid, yet she pushed me at every turn, forcing me out of my comfort zone until I snapped.

And that was in between every attempt we made to keep her alive.

She had more men trying to take her than any client I’d ever had before. I lost count of the number of people who want her and her best friend dead.
At least he knew how to follow instructions.
But I would be lying if I said their closeness didn’t bother me. Supposedly, it was strictly platonic, but the way he always held her hand and smothered her with homemade smoothies said otherwise.
It would be so much easier if she hated me.


Or better yet, wasn’t my client.

There was a hands-off policy for a reason, and I could guarantee she was gonna push me until I broke it.




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.
