Finding Hayes by Laura Pavlov is now available for pre-order in audio!

Narrated by: Andi Arndt & Lee Samuels

Releasing: October 24, 2024

A Small Town, Marriage of Convenience, Forced Proximity, Standalone Romance

from USA Today and Amazon Bestselling Author, Laura Pavlov.

Sometimes relationships come along that define you.

Someone who brings out sides of you that no one else sees.

The reason that you try to be the best version of yourself.

Savannah Abbott was my North Star growing up.

She was my best friend, my neighbor, and the person who knew me best.

But without warning, she was gone in the blink of an eye.

My life began unraveling the day she left Magnolia Falls.

Because apparently, when you lose the best thing in your life, it’s all downhill from there.

But I’m a survivor— and I forced myself to move on.

My guard went up, and my ability to trust people disappeared.

Until the day Savannah came back to town—more than a decade later.

And now she’s acting like I’m the enemy.

She wants nothing to do with me, even all these years later.

Until she needs a favor.

A temporary husband.

I may not be the marrying type, but for Savannah, I’m willing to bend the rules.

None of this is real, and she reminds me of that every day while we’re playing house.

I may fight fires for a living, but my new wife is a flame that I don’t want to extinguish.

She’s the fire that’s been missing all along.

**This is book 5 in the Magnolia Falls Series. Each one can be read as a complete standalone. A HEA is guaranteed!**

THE DEALS WE MAKE

S. Cole

Release Date: October 17

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED!

 

Calista

They always say you should never fall in love with your best friend.

And that’s especially true if they aren’t in love with you.

But when I was eighteen years old, I did it anyway.

Until Tiberius “Vex” Williams did the unthinkable, and shattered my heart, costing me everything.

But now I’m back in New Jersey with an ailing mother and an unknown stalker.

The last thing I need is a grumpy biker determined to understand what happened all those years ago.

 

Vex

There are many rumors about how I became an Outlaw, but I became one to save my best friend’s life after she threatened to hack the MC.

And she hated me for it, leaving New Jersey in a blur of words time hasn’t healed.

Calista Moray is now the CEO of a leading cybersecurity firm, and she’s back looking better than ever.

When our paths cross, sparks fly. We’re best friends turned enemies with a score to settle and a whole lot of tension between us.

Until the head of the Cosa Nostra confides that millions of dollars have been stolen from their accounts and he asks me to figure out where their money went.

The thought I’ll find Calista’s digital fingerprint everywhere terrifies me.

Especially given this time around, it’s not just our hearts but our lives at stake.

🧡Review🧡

Even though his reasons for joining the Iron Outlaws MC was to protect his best friend Calista it is not a decision Vex regrets as through the club he has created a family and found a place to call home. When Calista returns to town his only thought is he needs to see her again, despite the past, especially when he finds out she is in danger.

Calista is a successful businesswoman who has returned to town to be there for her family. She may have left town and Vex under difficult circumstances but seeing him again only reinforces the love she has always had for him.

This story and these characters will captivate you from the first page. The love they have for each other is felt through every interaction they have but they have a few challenges to overcome including the escalating danger and their very different lifestyles but the men and women of the MC are right by their sides.

Meet S. Cole:

The tattoo across my right hip says it all really. A Life Less Ordinary. Inked by the amazingly talented Luke Wessman at the Wooster Street Social Club (a.k.a. New York Ink). Why is it important? Well, it sums up my view on life. That we should all aspire to live a life that is less boring, less predictable. Be bold, and do something amazing. I’ve made some crazy choices. I’ve been a car maker, a consultant, and even a senior executive at a large retailer running strategy. Born in England, spent time in the U.S. and Japan, before ending up in Canada where I met my own, personal hero – all six and a half feet of him. Both of us are scorpios! Yeah, I know! Should have checked the astrological signs earlier, but somehow it works for us. We have two amazing kids, who I either could never part with or could easily be convinced to sell on e-bay

I’ve wanted to be a writer for a really long time. Check through my office cupboards or my computer and you’ll find half written stories and character descriptions everywhere. Now I’m getting the chance to follow that dream.

Blurb:

Meeting Ross Davis, professional baseball coach and my sports crush, is a funny story involving a stalled elevator, the potty dance, and an attempt to get into his hotel suite. In my defense, that last one was an accident.

He came to my room instead with a bottle of scotch and a sad soul.

My one night was not a stand, but more like a lie-in. As in, we snuggled and talked and not another thing happened.

So, nothing surprises me more than seeing him again when he becomes the manager of the Chicago Anchors, my hometown pro-team, and our paths intersect once more.

It’s here the story gets fuzzy, because Ross Davis, that sexy silver fox, has a proposal for me.

Baseball players are notoriously superstitious, and Ross is somehow convinced I’m his good luck charm. One who brings him success by sleeping with him.

Only sleeping.

The problem with this arrangement begins when those funny, fuzzy things called feelings get involved. Eventually, his elevator pitch is no longer an easy walk in the ballpark or a simple sleepover in his bed.

And I’m worried I’ll be the one left in the outfield when the season ends.

+ + +

From L.B. Dunbar comes an all-new sports romance with baseball at its heart and the sexy silver fox coaching staff as the focus of the fans.

⚾️Review⚾️
Ross had a successful career as a professional baseball pitcher and is now managing a team. After a devastating loss he finds himself confined in a elevator with Verona so it only seemed fitting that they would spend the night together whether they gave each other comfort without physical intimacy. He never expected to see her again until he sees her at a game that he is managing for his new team.

Verona had feelings for Ross before she even met him but finding out that that fate had brought them together again was a surprise she did not see coming. This is only reinforced when he believes that she is responsible for the good things that are happening in his life and wants to continue their friendship without benefits. The one hurdle becomes the feelings they are developing for each other.

Both Verona and Ross have lives before they met each other which also include children and the loss of their spouses and all the emotions that go along with that. The banter and situations they find themselves in are humorous and the characters are relatable as they find love for the second time.

VIOLENT PROMISES

Marie Johnston

Release Date: December 3

Meet Marie Johnston:

Marie Johnston is a RITA® Finalist, and a best-selling and award-winning writer of paranormal and contemporary romance – and an avid reader of them both.

Several years ago, when kids started outnumbering adults in the house, Marie Johnston left her job as a public health microbiologist to stay at home. Settling into working part-time and shuttling kids around gave Marie the opportunity to think about what she wanted to be when she grew up. A die-hard science geek, she explored her previously thought to be non-existent creative side after much time spent making snowman crafts and coloring princesses. Having entertained thoughts of writing a book one day then subsequently deciding it would be too hard, she finally put the figurative pen to paper and began to type – and fell in love with story telling.

The Sigma Menace is the first series by Marie with Fever Claim being her first book EVER.  She is humbled by the fact that people are willing to read to her books and looks forward to keeping readers entertained for many years.

Marie lives with her husband and four kids in North Dakota where the summers are gorgeous, the winters are brutal, and spring and fall are luxuries.

Blurb:

It was supposed to be one night to feel alive after getting out of a dud of a relationship. Now I’m having a baby, and I only have the soon-to-be dad’s first name.

After my breakup, I need to find a job and place to live, but I can’t move into the house my grandma left me unless I’m married. Fortunately, the guy renting the place doesn’t know that, so I stop by and find out if he can move at the end of his lease.

Only when the door opens, it’s him. My one-night stand. I do the only reasonable thing possible. I tell him we’re going to have a baby and promptly puke over the railing of the porch. Next thing I know, I’m on his couch, and he’s demanding a paternity test.

Except he doesn’t just want the test. He wants to make sure I don’t tamper with the results. He doesn’t believe me. Apparently showing up jobless and homeless to persuade him to move doesn’t make me trustworthy. Guess I’m not the only one with a dating history that leaves me jaded.

He insists I stay in the house that should be mine, right where he can monitor me. And the longer I’m around him, the more I can see that below his gruff exterior is a softie who planted acres of pumpkins for his cousin. A guy who wants to reconnect with his family. A man who makes me want to be more to him than violet promises.

💙Review💙

Starting when they were younger Quinn has never known what to do with his feelings for his best friend’s sister Parker, so he has perfected the art of irritating her. Finding out that they are attending the same event in Vegas is the perfect opportunity to show her the man he is and not the man she has known so far but will she agree?

Parker wants nothing to do with Quinn as he has been the bane of her existence since they were children. Spending time with him away from her boisterous family she realizes that there is a lot more to Quinn than she realized but will it be enough to overcome the past?

This is a heartwarming and humorous story about love and family. Quinn and Parker may have started as adversaries, but I enjoyed seeing them finally acknowledge their true feelings for each other.

BLURB:

Where love melts the ice and dreams come to fruition. Welcome to the Carolina Fury, where passion thaws even the most frozen hearts.

 Brooklynn Greene has it all—a successful salon, a close-knit group of girlfriends, and a life she loves. But there’s one thing she can’t seem to get out of her mind–her irresistibly charming neighbor.

She can’t have him.
He’s a dream.
 No, he’s the dream.

Her neighbor is off-limits. At least, that’s the way that she sees it, and she’s tried to keep him at arm’s length. But he needs her help. And it wouldn’t be neighborly to deny him.

Even if it means playing his fake girlfriend.

Forrest Westwood doesn’t worry. He lives his life the way that he wants, knowing that money is no object. The day he turns twenty-five, his trust fund is his. Life is going to be a comfortable one once his checks start coming in.

He plays by his own rules.
 She’s everywhere.
 Across the street, in the stands, and his dreams.

Life has a way of becoming complicated. The confident and independent woman is right in front of him. But can a fake relationship between them stay that way, or will the lines between pretend and reality blur as they play the most dangerous game of all—falling in love?

💕Taboo Surprise

🔥Found Family

💕Small Town

The job was supposed to be easy. Get my best friend’s older brother back on his feet and put my life back together.

But when we end up sharing a bed, all those plans flew out the window.

He was a notorious underground rodeo champion. Ladies’ man and legend. It’s not until he sustains an almost career ending injury that his family learns his secret – he wasn’t just the head of Sunny Brook Farms after all. 

What started as professional morphed into something more, and not only because the cowboy refused to wear a shirt around the house. 

Not that I was complaining.

But he was like a tempting piece of dessert that I needed to steer clear of.

Except, the more time I spent with him, the more I learned he was more than what he seemed. He was protective and devoted, and when I had my first taste of him, I was hooked.

We knew it was wrong.

We knew it would be our secret.

Neither of us wanted to cross the line drawn in the sand. There was his sister to consider and my crushed heart.

But all of it was about to get more complicated when that pink plus sign showed up.

🪓Marriage of Convenience 

💕Plus Size Doctor FMC

🪓Hockey Player Lumberjack MMC 

💕Opposites Attract 

🪓He Falls First

💕Smut Lessons

🪓Found Family 

💕Small Town 

I used to be a good girl.

That is until I woke up in Vegas married to a former hockey player who also happens to be my best friend’s ex. 

Cole Hebert and I are opposites. I’m the new town doctor, a rule follower, and five-five on a good day. He’s the six-seven bad boy currently doing court-ordered community service. 

I’m struggling to earn the respect of the people in our hometown, and he’s doing some soul searching after an injury ended his hockey career. We’ve already drunkenly said I do, so we agree to a marriage of convenience. 

Forced to live together, we slowly become friends. I see a side of Cole I never knew existed. He coaches kids’ hockey, knits for the entire town, and loves snuggling while watching Jeopardy.

Soon, we’re growing closer, and the way the hockey-playing lumberjack worships my plus-size body and obsessively calls me his wifey has me embracing my inner bad girl and tearing down all my carefully constructed walls. 

Our feelings eventually burn as bright as our passion, but the small town we both love is harboring dark secrets. After a shocking discovery, we learn there are those who want us silenced forever, and we’re forced to risk it all to protect our happily ever after. 

Author’s Note: If you enjoy opposites attract, flirty banter, possessive heroes, wood-chopping, meddling moose, and small-town hijinks, you will not be disappointed. 

Welcome to Lovewell, Maine, where the moose outnumber the people and you can’t swing an axe without hitting a hot, grumpy lumberjack. The books of the Maine Lumberjacks Series are ALL standalones but are most fun when read in order!
