Blurb:

For me, choice might as well be a wish.

My parents died in a fiery car crash when I was barely sixteen.

I’m gay.

I’m also totally in love with my brother.

I didn’t choose any of that. In fact, I’ve tried like hell to deny it. But here I am in all my gay, brother-loving, no-parentals glory.

Technically, Max isn’t my brother. Not by blood anyway. That should make it less ick, right?

Considering he calls my parents mom and dad, probably not.

Also, did I mention he’s straight?

So that’s me: the freestyle swimmer doing my best to keep my sexuality on the down-low while simultaneously wishing my feelings for Max will evaporate into thin air.

Too bad he acts like he’s my keeper and my heart shakes every time his eyebrow ring glints in the sun or he levels his opaque stare on me with an intensity matched by nothing else.

My desire to keep my personal life personal drowns at the bottom of the pool when a fellow Elite lets everyone in on my business, which throws Max into macho protective mode all over again.

Enough is enough, though. I’m forcing myself to move on.

Maybe the best way to forget about my forbidden crush is to find a new one.

I have options. More than I realized.

Unfortunately, none of them are leather-wearing, tattoo-sporting, motorcycle-riding grumpholes.

So here I am wishing for Max while someone else wishes for me.

Someone who decides if they can’t have me…

No one will.

🔥Review🔥
When Georgia arrived in town it was for a job, but she finds something much more important along the way. When she meets Andy and his father on the flight, she is drawn to both father and son, but she never expected that he would be her landlord or that he would be one of firefighters she wanted to feature in her calendar.

Mac has his son and his career, and he believes that is all he needs in his life. He may be attracted to Georgia but doesn’t believe that she will be staying, and Andy’s needs must always come first but that doesn’t mean he can deny the heat between them.

The chemistry between them was never in question but they had a few other complications to overcome but their six-year-old matchmaker knew they belonged together and wouldn’t accept anything less.

Snow Bound ❋ Release Blitz

Title: Snowbound
Author: Freya Barker
Genre: Holiday Romance

Release Date: December 4, 2023
Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC.

Had she known ‘doing the right thing’ would land her jobless, homeless, and snowed in with a moody bear of a man guarding her, Bobbie Strada might’ve thought twice.

Last thing US Marshall Dag Toland needed was to get stuck protecting a witness as tempting as this one. Especially when forced to share a small mountain cabin in the middle of a snowstorm.

*Short story.
*Previously released in the Chill Factor anthology

❋Review❋

The danger that Bobbi is facing only continues to escalate as the trial for which she is a star witness comes closer. She is being protected by the US Marshals at a secure location however when it is compromised, she and Dag, one of the agents, must flee until they uncover how she was discovered and who is responsible.

Dag is a US Marshall who has been denying his feelings for Bobbi by trying to distance himself from her. That is no longer possible when not only must they battle the harsh winter but the people who are determined to finish the job when it comes to Bobbi’s life.

Although this story may be short it still has the suspense, steam and surprises that we expect from this author, and it doesn’t disappoint.

Blurb:

An abandoned space station, a hostile, alien planet, and a lost squad eighteen hundred light years from Earth.

How far would you go for that one chance to get home?

After the world-shattering events of Hostile Contact, Finn’s squad leave Earth and the Solar System behind, travelling 1800 light years in an instant, as the Haven space craft activates the Return Protocol.

The ship’s Artificial Intelligence, accepting them as crew, co-operates with Finn, Zuri, Smith and Noah as they as they encounter the remnants of the Haven race on an advanced Space Station and Havenhome, the aliens’ home planet.

Pitted against huge odds, the squad need to rapidly gain the knowledge and skills required to use their alien technology as they desperately fight for survival on the hostile, high gravity planet, where everything wants to eat you or kill you, not caring which comes first.

In the midst of battle, revelations arise about the ancient aliens’ plans for humanity and, with the horrifying realisation about how the Haven fell from their technologically advanced pinnacle, Finn and his team question their place amongst the stars.

With Finn continuing to combat both inner and outer demons, Zuri, the strong-willed female gunner, and Smith, his deceased but digitally copied Corporal, rise to the challenge as the squad take on the might of the Haven Masters, who crave their old but powerful technology.

And, in a last-ditch attempt to recover the lost pathway home, the squad embark on a harrowing mission where they face a devastating decision that will change their lives forever.

Come for the action, stay for the characters in this ‘fast-paced, character-driven novel that seamlessly blends military sci-fi and alien first contact.’

Aliens, they are more like us than you think.

Broken Romeo 🎬 Available Now

I was looking for a job, not a Romeo… because everyone knows how that story ends.

Broken Romeo, an all-new enemies to lovers, second chance romance, and the first book in the Shattered Hearts series from USA Today bestselling author Katana Collins is now available!

I’ve got three hundred bucks left in my bank account, two jobs, and one final chance to make it as an actress in New York City.

After years of being a chorus girl, I arrive at my first Broadway audition for a leading role thinking I finally have a shot at making it…until I come face to face with the director, Holden James—the rich quarterback from college who broke my heart and stabbed me in the back three years ago.

But I’m not the same girl I was in college. And unlike three years ago, I now know just what—and who—I’m dealing with. This time, I know how to play the game. In this cutthroat business, I need to remember the truest theatrical lesson of all:

For never was a story of more woe… than this of Juliet and her Romeo.

My shoulders go rigid. I have thirteen missed calls.

Thirteen. 

Most days, I get one or two calls tops… and they’re usually spam. 

Not only do I have thirteen missed calls, but I have thirteen new voice messages. All from the same 516 area code.

I press play and hold the phone up to my ear. 

Holden’s voice filters from the speaker. “Kate, it’s me. Look, we need to talk. I don’t want to have this conversation over the phone—”

She wasn’t exactly memorable back then. The echo of his voice roils my stomach, and I pull the phone away from my ear to look at the phone number he called from. 

The same number as the other twelve messages—Holden’s number. 

Holden called me thirteen times. 

My breath catches. I haven’t known his number for years. I haven’t known how to reach him, despite the multiple pissed off speeches I’ve memorized through the years. Speeches I thought he’d never hear because I never had a way to contact him… 

Until now. 

The power of that makes my heart patter against my ribcage with the speed of a hummingbird’s wings.

 It’s a power I shouldn’t be trusted with. 

I delete the messages and shove my phone back deep into my pocket as Jill gives me a questioning glance. “Who was that?” 

My throat tightens. She’s the one person I can’t lie to. “It was him.” 

Her eyes go wide, filling with hope. “Maybe—”

 “No,” I cut her off. 

“You don’t even know what I was going to say!” 

Curt finishes taking an order and scribbles some initials onto a cup, then thrusts it at me to make the iced matcha latte. I bend, retrieving the green powder from its container, and toss a scoop in the bottom of the cup. 

“Fine,” I concede, uncapping the almond milk. 

“What were you going to say?”

“Maybe he’s calling to offer you the part—” 

“No,” I answer again, shoving the ice scoop into the bin. 

“But how do you know?” 

“I just do.” I dump the ice into the tea shaker, then push the lid on top. Giving it a good shake, I speak over the clatter. “If you’re being offered a role, the director isn’t the one who calls you. The casting director calls your agent. Then your agent calls you with the contracts that you comb through before there’s any formal acceptance.”

I hate the deflated look on Jill’s face. In some ways, she’s taking this even harder than I am. 

Or I’m just that good at shutting off my emotions. 

Which is the exact reason I didn’t get the part. Because Holden knows me too well. He knows I have trouble connecting, exposing my vulnerable side. Especially with him. 

“The only reason Holden would call me himself is if I didn’t get the part, and he thinks this somehow makes him the hero to tell me in person.” I stare into the frothy light green beverage and snap the lid on top, avoiding Jill’s pitying stare. 

A deep voice speaks up, resonating over the ambient noise of the coffee shop. “Maybe if you returned my calls, you’d know what the hell I wanted.” 

My breath stalls halfway out of my lungs, and I snap my gaze up. 

Holden.

🎬Review🎬
Kate has always wanted to be an actress, but it is proving much more difficult to follow her dreams than she expected. She has reached a crossroads where despite working multiple jobs, she may have to follow another path if she isn’t chosen for the next role she is auditioning for. That task is about to become much more difficult when the director happens to be someone she knew in the past that didn’t end well.

Holden is an accomplished actor who is now transitioning into directing. He regrets the events of the past and even though he wants things to be different both in the past and in the present that means he has some choices to make.

The chemistry and connection between Kate and Holden is as strong as ever but there is so much unresolved between them that must be dealt with first and I am looking forward to seeing what happens to this couple in the next book of this series.

SEALED WITH A KISS

Willow Winters & Amelia Wilde

Release Date: December 4

We made a deal… one I thought I’d never make.

I’m trying not to judge myself but it’s a bit shameful.

Rent was due and I simply didn’t have it. I love the big city and I’ve done everything I could to make it. But after a rough few years, a break up that nearly destroyed me, and a personal issue that I just can’t talk about… I’m broke and hit rock bottom.

Then there’s Graham.

Richer than most could ever imagine, devilishly handsome with a charming smile, and a sparkle in his eyes that I swear is just for me.

He owns the building and now, once a month when the rent is due… he gets a piece of me I can’t believe I agreed to give.
His lips on mine are addictive and the way he groans my name in pleasure is scorched into my memory.

We sealed it with a kiss and I’m all too aware that the next rock bottom for me will lead to nothing but despair and a broken heart.

Meet Willow Winters:

I started writing after having my little girl, Evie, December of 2015. All during my pregnancy with her I read. I only wanted to read romance novels and I read everything I could get my hands on. I would read a book a day — sometimes two. In January I was staying up late with her and just thinking of all these stories. They came to me constantly. I finally sat down and just started writing. I always wanted to do it so I figured, why not?

I never thought I would reach this point of success to be honest. It’s insane to me that I have connected with so many readers.

And I love each and every one of them for all of their support. I’ll be honest, some days are HARD. I have my littles during the day and I write at night. Some days are just simply exhausting and then I hear from a reader and it motivates me to push through and keep writing. I couldn’t be more grateful for this wonderful career.

“What a thoroughly delightful story. I adored it.” ~ Lori Wilde, New York Times bestselling author on Lucky Cowboy

Time to rewrite their story?
 
He’d always simply been her best friend. But when Noah Cahill moved back to town, bookstore owner Twyla Thompson knew something was different. Was it holiday memories of the loss they’d both shared or Noah’s surprising decision to reignite a dangerous career? Their solid friendship had been through so much, yet now Twyla grew breathless every time Noah was near. Why wasn’t Noah—handsome, fun, but never one to cross the line—showing any signs of stopping?

Then with little warning other than the sudden shine in his eyes, he hauled her by the neck to him and kissed her, square on the lips. It was a deep and long kiss that didn’t seem to have a beginning. Nor did it have an end. He pulled her tight and they were hip to hip, belly to belly. Even through the shock of the totally unexpected, she kissed him back. She sunk her fingers into his hair and kissed him with everything she had in her. With every last inch of longing wrapped up in her, saved over the years and packed away where the raw intensity of the emotion couldn’t destroy her.

She fisted his shirt. She ran her hands up and down his back, feeling the muscles tense and bunch.

It was over just as quickly and then they were both panting, staring at each other.

“I’m sorry.” Noah took a step back, leaving a healthy distance between them. “Yeah, I shouldn’t have done that. That’s wrong.”

Wrong?

“It’s okay,” she stammered because she didn’t know what else to say in the moment.

Yes, it was wonderful, please kiss me again, because I think maybe I’ve always loved you?

“It’s just…that was wrong of me. I don’t feel that way about you.” 

Oh, God. There went her heart, pierced and sliced into tiny bits.

I don’t feel that way about you.

No, he was right. This was wrong. And if he had regrets then damn it, so did she.

“Me, neither. I don’t feel that way about you.”

“I know.”

The certainty in his voice broke her heart a little. How could he be so sure she wasn’t straight out lying, trying to save her pride?

She chewed on her lower lip. “So, let’s just forget it. Pretend the kiss never happened.”

“But…we’re okay?”

Worry and regret filled those dark puppy dog eyes. Not long ago, she would have understood. But now she knew what it was like to be kissed by Noah and her heart shattered to think it would never happen again.

“We’re okay. You’re probably right, huh? Bad idea.”

“Yeah, I just don’t want to…you know…” He ran a hand through his hair, looking desperately vulnerable, like a man searching for a lifeline.

And what kind of friend would she be not to throw one to him?

“It was just, well, okay, maybe we’re both lonely. And it’s after midnight. I…got um, confused.” She had no idea what she was saying but it sounded good, and he seemed to be receptive.

“Yeah, so did I.”

“And I’ve got a date tomorrow night so that could be awkward.”

Now she’d lied to her best friend, but she’d also kissed him within an inch of his life, so either way she was in brand new territory here.

He quirked a brow. “You have a date? Who is he?”

“Some guy.”

“Some guy? Does ‘some guy’ have a name?”

“Of course he has a name, Noah. He’s some guy I just met.” She crossed her arms. “Weren’t you leaving?”

He scowled. “Yeah. I have an early day tomorrow.”

“Bye.” She closed the door before he could say another word.

Now she was going to have to find herself a date.

📚Review📚
When Noah endured a devastating loss he believed that the only way to heal was to try and distance himself from the past. He has now returned to his hometown where he will reunite with his best friend Twyla who is feeling like so much more.

Twyla shares Noah’s loss but she chose to remain and now manages the town’s bookstore. Seeing Noah again fills an emptiness she didn’t know she had and will force them to face how they really feel about each other.

This enchanting romance has characters that draw you in and I enjoyed getting to visit this wonderful town and the other people who live in it.

Bestselling author Heatherly Bell was born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama but lost her accent by the time she was two. After leaving Alabama, Heatherly lived with her family in Puerto Rico and Maryland before being transplanted kicking and screaming to the California Bay Area. She now loves it here, she swears.

What happens when the conman collides with the good girl?

“Go With It”

That’s what I was told, but believe me, I’m starting to wonder if all of this isn’t more trouble than it’s worth.

My new life in the city was supposed to challenge me. Little did I know that the biggest challenge I’d face was out sassing the conman who can’t keep his hands off me.

Honestly, you’d think that saving his life would’ve been enough. But, no, of course not. It’s not enough for Ryske.

He won’t be happy until he’s had all of me.

Every inch.

All to himself.

Except I’m no fool. He’s a “promise-me-nothing” kind of guy and my ridiculous heart is already trying to sync with his.

I’m an idiot. An idiot. I should’ve let him bleed out. Just walked away and left his world before it became mine. But, it’s too little too late. I’m in it.

I have a feeling that fortunate fall, our felix culpa, will be the undoing of both of us

Protecting Piper 🏈 Now Live

Protecting Piper by Jennifer Bonds is now live!

Brady Vaughn is sweet, sexy, and totally into me…

Too bad I don’t have time for distractions, especially the relentless football player kind. If I want to graduate next semester, I need to focus on student teaching, not on my love life. But Brady’s incredibly hard to resist. Not only is he the most gorgeous guy I’ve ever laid eyes on, he has the personality to match. He’s sweet. Attentive. Real.

When he crashes my pole dancing class, swearing he’ll return every week until I give him a shot, I’m certain he’ll be the first to crack. But with each passing week, he’s melting my defenses, and it’s getting harder and harder to resist his quiet charm.

The only problem? He doesn’t know about my side hustle as a cam girl, and I plan to keep it that way.

As much as I like Brady, I can’t risk my future—or my career in education—on anything less than a sure thing.

If life has taught me anything, it’s that there are no guarantees, and if my secret gets out, I’m not the only one with something to lose…

🏈Review🏈
From the moment that Brady saw Piper he knew that she was special, and he wasn’t about to be deterred by her Cinderella like escape and is determined to find her again. When he does he is determined to break through her wall and show her that he is a man she can count on.

Piper has learnt to depend on no on but herself and needs to focus on getting her degree and keeping her secrets. Brady is a surprise she never saw coming and despite her need to distance herself from him he manages to break through her walls before she realized how it happened.

Piper’s need to be cautious is understandable however Brady isn’t about to let anything stand in their way. He wants her in his life and isn’t about to let anything stand in their way including her past.

EXCERPT

Carolina was introducing him to his former fiancée.

Fine. Near fiancée. It had been a promise ring, not an engagement diamond, but still.
The run he’d just finished was apparently unnecessary from a cardio standpoint, since his heart was now racing, crashing into his ribs as if it were fleeing a crime scene. Not that he was the bad guy. But still.
Kari. No way.
It was his Kari. And okay, maybe she was never formally his fiancée, but until college and distance broke them up, they always planned on it. He’d given her a promise ring in high school, so that was close enough.
When Carolina had mentioned she was meeting two wedding professionals named Katie and Carrie, he’d heard it as the more familiar spelling. She’d never spelled it out, and she hadn’t bothered to tell him Kari’s last name.
“Caleb, have you swallowed your tongue along with your manners? Shake the poor woman’s hand, for goodness sake!” Carolina crooned, giving him side-eye while managing a puzzled smile at Kari as the two stood awkwardly in front of each other, gaping.
Kari had changed in some ways, for sure, but it was her, alright. Her brown hair was a darker shade but still thick and shiny, framed in soft layers around her face, brushing the edges of straight, strong shoulders. He recognized those whiskey brown eyes, deceptively sleepy unless you knew her, knew that behind them, her brain was working constantly at warp speed.
She was taller now–or anyway, she didn’t wear four-inch heels back then–so instead of having to bend to kiss her lips, he could just dip his head.
If he wanted to kiss her.
If wanting to kiss her wasn’t the only thing he could think about.
