When We Burn by Kristen Proby is now live!

From New York Times Bestselling author Kristen Proby comes When We Burn, a single-dad, friends-to-lovers, small-town romance, and the first in the Blackwells of Montana series, set in Bitterroot Valley!

Bridger

I’m her safe place.

I always have been.

The torment that Dani Lexington went through at the hands of her father was something no child should have had to endure. But I was the lucky one she turned to.

Our age difference and the fact that her brother was my best friend kept her off-limits, even though something was always there, lingering under the surface.

But when she was old enough, she left Bitterroot Valley, and I was forced to move on with my life.

I got married and had my little girl. Now, I’m a single dad, focused on my job as fire chief and making sure my daughter stays healthy after a mysterious illness has plagued her for the past year.

But after Dani’s father dies, she returns to Bitterroot Valley and is now living across the street from my daughter and me.

Dani’s no longer a child. No longer off limits.

This time, I won’t let anything or anyone stop me from being her safe place again.

Dani

I’ve been in love with Bridger Blackwell for as long as I can remember.

He’s a smoke show, kind, and gives the best hugs in the world. But best of all? He’s everything my sorry excuse for a father wasn’t.

Now, I’m back in Bitterroot Valley, living across the street from Bridger and his adorable daughter.

It doesn’t take long for all those old feelings to come rushing back, and every cell in my body knows that I belong with them.

That they’re mine.

Bridger’s arms are where I feel safest. They feel like home.

I’m growing to depend on him, to truly love him and his daughter. But I have deep-rooted baggage, and Bridger’s past has decided to rear its ugly head.

Will we survive this, or is our relationship doomed from the start?

🧡Review🧡
Dani had to endure an upbringing that no one should have to, but she always had her brother and his best friend Bridger to lean on. Her feelings for Bridger were more than friends but their lives veered in different direction when she left for college, and he stayed. She has recently moved back to her hometown and not only is she his neighbor but Birdie, his daughter’s teacher as well.

Bridger is a hero in all aspects of his life which include being a firefighter, a single father and the way that he was always there for Dani in the past. Seeing her again brings up all the feelings he has tried to deny but this time around he is going to show her that they have always belonged together.

Dani is so much stronger and more resilient than even she knew while Bridger is both protective and possessive. Dani fits in with Bridger and Birdie like they were always meant to be, and they are surrounded by a captivating group of friends and family. A little turmoil, some suspense and a beautiful romance.

Blurb:

Some loves are destined. Others are rewritten.

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.

Paper Stars Rewritten is book 2 of the Fallen Brook series and ends on a cliffhanger. Please check for potential TWs by visiting the author’s website at https://www.jennilynnwyer.com/content-and-trigger-warnings.

Why you will love this book…

🔥FI Racing

🏁Second Chance

🔥Professional Athlete

🏁Enemies to Lovers

🔥Forbidden Romance

🏁Female FI Engineer

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.

She was just supposed to be a one-night stand…

But then she became my world.

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.

Bailey

Hunter swept into my life like a hurricane. Cold, broody, and clearly hates me—if only I hated him too.

So imagine my surprise when he offered to train me. Accepting his offer was something I never should have done, but with my life on the line, what choice did I have?

His sole mission is to keep me safe, but my heart craves more. He claims he’ll never fall in love, yet his actions give me hope that he might change his mind. But I’m afraid that by the time he’s done with me, my heart will be in shreds.

 

Hunter

I don’t let anyone close, especially not close enough to see the demons that have haunted me for years. But Bailey makes me desire things I shouldn’t. I can’t stay away from her, no matter how much I want to.

Bailey challenges and provokes me to the point of implosion. Yet, she’s mine to protect and keep safe. No one will ever get close enough to hurt her, even if her presence is my greatest torment.

I hope she’s ready to face the consequences of taunting and tantalizing me. One time should cure me of this insanity, but deep down, I know one taste of her will never be enough.

I don’t know who’s corrupting who anymore. I just know I can’t stop myself. I am screwed either way.

Royce Ashford.

The hottest man I’d ever met.

The first man I’d fallen for.

I’d had a crush on my best friend’s older brother for as long as I could remember. His charm and sex appeal could seduce a saint, never mind a sex-crazed woman.

With his cocky grin, broad shoulders, and filthy mouth, he was a heartbreaker in a leather jacket. And the leading man in every single one of my naughty fantasies.

The first time I kissed him, we ended up locked in the friend zone. Apparently my make-out skills left much to be desired. In my defense, I was too young and inexperienced back then.

I’d grown up and totally gotten over him.

Until my engagement fell apart and Royce swooped in like my very own Prince Charming, saving me again.

One tiny problem.

I was falling for him all over again. My lustful imagination, raging hormones, and accidental glimpses of Royce’s nakedness weren’t helping. Neither were the rumors of Royce’s kinky tendencies.

But I refused to be a footnote in Royce’s life. If we were doing this, we’d do it all.

We’d go all the way.

Here and Now by Corinne Michaels is now live!

I’ve crafted my new life in Ember Falls with two simple rules: maintain superficial relationships and always be ready to run.

But when my son’s incredibly hot hockey coach Miles Anderson walks in, things get very, very complicated.

With his charming smile and our accidental dates, he’s the exact opposite of any man I’ve ever dated. That should make saying yes to being with him simple, but nothing in my life is easy.

In fact, it’s a mess.

Miles makes me smile and treats my son like his own. When we’re together, I forget about my troubles and dream of a life that I will never be able to have with him.

It’s only a matter of time until the past comes knocking and I’ll have to leave, breaking us both in the process.

Penelope will do anything for her son Kai as they try to stay one step ahead from the threats of the past. She is now living in Ember Falls where she is trying to not get attached to the town or the people in it as she doesn’t believe she will ever be able to lay down permanent roots. When Miles comes into her life he shows her and her son what has been missing in their lives.

Miles is a good man who is the school principal and coaches his nephew’s hockey team. When he meets Penelope, he knows that she is special and the efforts he makes to spend time with her is heartwarming. He knows that Paige is cautious, but he is patient and understanding as he shows her that she count on him to be there for her and Kai.

The romance between Penelope and Miles is enchanting and the relationship he shares with Kai will touch your heart. Not only are Penelope and Miles captivating characters but they are surrounded by friends and family that only make this wonder story even better

Excerpt:

“Checkmate,” I declare triumphantly.

Jude exhales, shaking his head. “You won. And with the Queen’s Gambit, no less.”

“I did.” I smile, giddy at his proficiency in knowing that opening.

“So what now?”

“And now it’s time for this queen to claim her prize,” I tell him, pushing back from the table and rising slowly to my feet.

His breath catches in his throat as I step toward him, closing the space between us. He doesn’t move, doesn’t flinch—just sits there, hands clenched into fists on his thighs, as if bracing himself.

I reach for them, gently prying his fingers open. They yield to me instantly.

“This won’t hurt,” I whisper, slipping onto his lap and guiding one of his arms around me.

“Mina, what are you—”

I press a finger against his lips, silencing him. His eyelids flutter shut.

Then, taking his other hand, I press it to my pendant, covering it with my own.

“I love my necklace,” I murmur, leaning in, my lips just a breath away from his. “And I promise, I’ll never take it off,” I pause, needing to take a forfeiting breath. “But there’s just some things a woman wants that money can’t buy.”

“And what’s that?” he asks, his breath ragged.

“A kiss,” I whisper. “I want you to kiss me.”

His eyes snap open, the flecks of gold in his eyes burning brightly at me.

“Is that really what you want?”

“More than anything.”

My heart is pounding now, slamming against my rib cage, but my resolve will not be deterred.

He watches me intently, searching, as if looking for a reason in my eyes to walk away.

Some hesitation he can use against me.

But there is none.

This is what I want.

“Kiss me,” I whisper again, needing to break through his resistance. “One little kiss.”

“Just one?” he asks as if trying to justify it to himself.

“Hmm. Just one,” I lie.

Blurb:

Vicious Addictions is the first installment in this action-packed, drama-filled mafia romance series from USA Today Bestselling Author Ivy Fox.

“Enter the dangerous world of power, passion, and forbidden love in The Next Vicious Generation—where blind loyalty always comes at a price.”

Everyone in Chicago knows my name.

I’m Jude Adamo Romano—the eldest son of the Romano clan and the heir to the Outfit crime syndicate.

Power, control, and loyalty are my family’s legacy, the only things I hold dear.

As for love? Love is a weakness.

I’ve witnessed how it twists, destroys, and corrupts even the most honorable men, and I vowed never to let it ruin me.

Not again.

I kept that promise—until she walked back into my life.

Mina Crane… the one woman who ever made me question everything. The only one I’d risk it all for, even my birthright.

But in my world, something as fragile as love always comes with a steep price.

As loyalties shatter and enemies close in, I find myself at a crossroads, faced with an impossible decision.

Will I fight for the woman who brings me to my knees with just a smile, or will duty and honor chain me to a fate I no longer desire?

For what is a throne without a queen to rule by my side?

Author’s note: The Next Vicious Generation is an interconnected standalone series that serves as a spin-off to the Rotten Love Duet. Each book in this series will focus on one of Selene’s children, now grown up and just as fierce and fearless as their fathers. While reading the Rotten Love Duet is not essential before starting this series, it is highly recommended for a deeper understanding of the characters and their backstory.

One month. One fake boyfriend. One shot at forever.

I’ve got four weeks to cross one thing off my bucket list—and it isn’t exactly PG.

I’m not the type to take risks, but when a friend battling cancer dares you to go big, you don’t say no. My mission? Lose my V-card before my baby sister’s wedding.

Did I mention she’s marrying my high school crush? Yeah. There’s no way I’m walking into that ceremony as the awkward, untouched older sister.

Enter single dad Ian Barlowe—my sinfully hot, NFL legend neighbor, who owes me big time after his daughter breaks into my house. He offers to make amends by playing my fake boyfriend. How can I say no?

It should be easy enough—except nothing about Ian feels fake. The chemistry? Explosive. His unexpected sweetness? Heart-melting. And the way he seems to like me just as I am? Ruh, roh.

Here’s the thing—I don’t do vulnerability, and neither does he. But as the line between pretend and real starts to blur—especially in the bedroom—I wonder if happily-ever-after is a game we can win.

I set out to score one for the bucket list, but now I’m playing for keeps. And if we’re not careful, I might lose my heart in the final play.

✔️Cheerleading

Blurb:

I didn’t follow Wyatt Stone to college, I followed my heart. He just happened to be there.

Against the odds, our love has only grown stronger over the last three years. Now Wyatt’s entering his final college football season, only a few months away from the pro draft this spring. And despite how hard I tried to deny living the same love story as my parents, it seems I’m destined to become the wife of an NFL quarterback. Forever the cheerleader. Truthfully? I can’t imagine life turning out any other way.

However, dreams are temporary. And sometimes, it’s the things that happen when we’re wide awake that forge our stories. Our love is about to face its toughest test yet, and as badly as my heart wants to hold on to what we were, I’m not so sure it’s possible. More importantly, I’m not certain it’s the right choice for either of us.

Now, Wyatt . . . he’s a lot like my father. He’s stubborn. What we’re facing is a whole lot heavier than being down by a touchdown with only seconds to go. But Wyatt doesn’t back down from a fight. It’s just that this one might not win him the game in the end.

One cold December day, two men are blindsided by a hockey trade; one is the most decorated goalie in the league, while the other one is the youngest coach in the majors.

Jethro Hale is the last player Coach Clay Powers wants to see on his roster, but the G.M. pulls a fast one. And it’s not like he can even explain why. Nobody knows about their love affair fifteen years ago.

Cue the all-star awkwardness, the painful memories and the reawakening of deep feelings on both sides.

Unfortunately, their attraction still burns brightly. But it can never be. A player and a coach? The scandal would overshadow the team’s banner year.

If only they could resist each other…

If you love grumpy heroes, high stakes hockey, struggling single parents and smoldering kisses, grab your copy of The Last Guy on Earth.

🏒Review🏒

Jethro is approaching the end of the year so finding out the team that he has devoted his career to has traded him was difficult but that is only the beginning. Not only must he uproot his father as well as his nephew, who he has custody of, but the coach of the team happens to be a former teammate that he had a secret relationship with years earlier.

After an injury ended his career Clay transitioned into coaching and has built a successful career. He is not happy that a recent trade brings Jethro back into his life as their relationship did not end well. Now they find themselves trying to maneuver both the boss/employee relationship as well as their past.

Despite the reservations that both Jethro and Clay had you could also see that their feelings for each other hadn’t diminished over time and they weren’t about to repeat the mistakes of the past. The audio performance Teddy Hamilton and J.F. Harding not only gave us insight to the characters but their emotions as well.
