    Dear Rosie, by S.J. Tilly is now live! 

    Rosie

    I was eight when Nathan moved away.

    He was my best friend.

    My only friend.

    My safe space.

    And then he was gone. And my life turned into Hell.

    But I survived.

    I broke free and made a life for myself.

    And I tried to forget about the boy who grew up to be Nate Waller, the famous retired football player.

    I really did try to forget.

    But then I opened the door, while working at a client’s house, and he was there. Standing before me.

    My old friend.

    My unwitting confidant.

    My Nathan.

    Except… he doesn’t recognize me.

    Nate

    The curvy little redhead captured my attention the second I saw her.

    And I knew I needed to have her.

    Needed to know her better.

    Needed to get my hands on her.

    But when I did.

    When she moaned my name. My full name. It all came rushing back.

    Twenty-five years had passed, but in that moment I finally recognized her.

    My Rosie.

    My childhood friend.

    I may have forgotten about her. But I remember now.

    And this time I’m not letting her go.

  • New release by Laura Pavlov🚨

    October 27th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Finding Hayes is the last in the series and what a great end! I have loved this small town and everyone in it. Savannah left many years ago without saying why and leaving her bestie Hayes behind. She is back after a loss and she has a condition to fulfill and Hayes is our man! Savannah gives him not one inch at first and I loved it! Sassy and funny and Hayes is Mr Grump even though the Fam saw what was brewing and simmering this whole time. Combustion between these two! This was a must read for anyone wanting a small town, marriage of convenience and friends to lovers vibes!

    Finding Hayes by Laura Pavlov is now live! 

    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.

  • New release from LB Dunbar!

    October 24th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    New series intro and we meet Ross and Verona. These two had such a cute meet that had me chuckling. Ross is retired from the baseball world but is coaching for a team that is not his favorite. Verona is also a widow with older kids and her meet with Ross is cute and the awkwardness is hilarious you will love the banter. Friends with benefits to hopefully a HEA? I loved Verona she was hilarious!!! Great start!


    ✨Let’s celebrate! It’s release day for ELEVATOR PITCH by @lbdunbarwrites! Grab it in KU!  #OneClickNow

    https://a.co/d/8xsJMv4

    Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…
    🔥baseball romance
    🔥coach / author
    🔥arrangement
    🔥single parents
    🔥silver fox
    🔥love over 40

    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.

  • New series from Natasha Madison⭐️

    October 19th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    This is a first in a new series from Natasha Madison and it’s a different feel from the hockey romance or small town romance. This book brings all the feels and will tear you apart and then put you back together in the end. We have Charlie and Autumn who both their lives changed one night and now they are left with emotional scars. Charlie lost the love of his life and he has no welcoming warm thoughts about his ex friend Autumn. She is now back in town after being away from the pain after that fateful night. These two go on a journey of healing and it’s not easy or smooth but the HEA in the end is worth it. A must read!


  • Mr Heartbreaker Release⭐️

    October 17th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Ladies and gentleman look no further this should be your next read! This dynamic duo does it right everytime. Here is the first in this series and it’s a sports romance back to hockey and the condo building they call The Nest. We start with bachelor #1 Rowan who meets Kyleigh and of course the chemistry is off the charts. They both are keeping it casual and fun but Rowan doesn’t know that Kyleigh brother is his ex friend and teammate from when he was in college. Kyleigh knows she needs to come clean but doesn’t get the chance till it’s too late. Will Rowan still to the bro code and not pursue Kyleigh? Or is it too late and have his feelings gotten too deep? 
    These ladies always build a friend group that is hilarious. There is plenty of banter between the men of The Nest and between Rowan and Kyleigh. I will say prepare yourself for Rowan because my goodness his mouth ughhhhhh love it!!! This was a great start to the series and I can’t wait for the next story!

    Mr. Heartbreaker by Piper Rayne is now live! 

    I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates.

    Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now.

    Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

    Except there’s not a lot of sleeping going on, and neither one of us wants to stop what we’re doing.

    It’s all fun and games until my brother is traded to the Falcons, because Rowan doesn’t know I’m the new goalie’s little sister. Oops.

  • New small town romance🚨

    October 17th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Ten years ago Dominick “REN” Renaldi was the love of Beatrix Corbett life in College until he broke up with her and went to pursue his hockey career. Trix was hurt and went to move on with her life but would keep up with him on Social media. Now he is back in town and bumps into Trix . He knows she was the one he should have not let go but now needs to convince her. After one night Trix finds out it will be hard to move on from REN when you are now staring at a positive pregnancy test.

    I love a second chance and add a surprise baby in there and it’s a recipe for success to me. This is a dual POV story and I love that it reflects back for when they were college sweethearts so it gave us the feel of them as a couple. So many obstacles thrown their way but the question that REN has is will she be willing to give him another chance.


    Love You Too by Stacy Travis is now live!

    A small town, surprise pregnancy, hockey romance

    You know what they say—when things start to come together, life throws you a curveball.

    Well, in this case…a hockey puck.

    Ten years ago, we were college sweethearts. Until Dominick (Ren) Renaldi decided the grass was greener playing pro hockey in Canada.

    I moved on—made my mark as a designer. I run two restaurants and an inn at our family winery, Buttercup Hill.

    Nothing is missing. Nothing at all.

    Then Ren struts into my small town, a reminder of a broken heart I locked in the past.

    Okay, yes, this responsible, type A girl could really use a wild night of scorchin’ hot fun, and Ren, with his penetrating eyes and easy charm, is all too happy to deliver—grownup style.

    Imagine my surprise when I see a little pink plus sign a few weeks later.

    I’m not looking for love, especially with a guy who’s walked away once. And Ren’s serious about his career, so he will walk away. Besides, I’m not the kind of woman who traps a man with a surprise baby.

    But when our shared history and a certain little growing bean brings us close again, I discover the real reason Ren left—and why he’s back.

    I find myself starting to like my baby daddy and the man he became.

    But what if I love him, too?

    Love You Too is a steamy standalone hockey romance in the Buttercup Hill series, where the men are as hot as the wine country sun. It’s packed with banter, swoon, and a HEA.

    When I tell you halfway through this book and the emotional rollercoaster is real!! This Excerpt is 🔥

    ✨EXCERPT: SHATTERED DREAMS by @natashamauthor is coming October 18th! 

    #PreOrderNow

    https://books2read.com/ShatteredDreamsNM

    She’s standing in front of me naked as her hands go to the button of my pants. My eyes watch every single move as the sound of the zipper being pulled down echoes in the room. I don’t think I take a breath as she moves the flaps of my jeans, and her hand slides into my boxers as she grips my cock in her hand. My mouth hovers over her as she moves her hand up and down, my hand slides down her stomach, touching her neatly trimmed triangle as my hand slips through her slit, and I slide a finger into her. She sighs out a deep breath as I slip another finger into her. She bites my lower lip before she moves to my neck, sucking in deep. My eyes close as she moves her mouth to my nipple, sucking it into her mouth before biting right next to it. I hiss out as she moves away from me and drops to her knees. I should stop this. I should move out of her touch. I should do a whole bunch of things. But I don’t do any of them. I’m stuck, my feet stuck to the floor as if it is quicksand. I feel her hands moving to my waist as she pushes my jeans over my hips, freeing my cock, and then sinking her mouth onto it. I open my eyes, watching her try to take me all in her mouth. My eyes lose focus on her as she bobs her head away from me before taking me to the back of her throat. I have to close my eyes, or I’ll come. My hand comes up to her head, gripping her hair in it and pulling her away from my dick before I bend and kiss her. I pull her up to stand before moving her backward to the bed. The back of her knees hit the bed, and she falls back. I kick off my boots before getting rid of my jeans as she moves back on the bed. Our eyes watch each other as I put one knee on the bed and then the other. Her legs open for me as I crawl between them. “Charlie,” she says my name.“Shut up,” I order her, and she tilts her head back.“I hate you,” she hisses at me. “I’ve never hated anyone as much as I hate you.” “Good,” I snap, grabbing my cock in my hand. “The feeling is definitely mutual.”

  • New hockey Romance

    October 14th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Hockey romance
    Friends to Lovers
    Marriage of Convenience 

    These are all good tropes for success. Daisy and West are a wonderful couple and the slow burn is gratifying. West and Daisy are besties and even though they haven’t cross the line they both have feelings for each other. Daisy is someone that West is definitely noticing now. A secret gets out and to save the reputation a marriage of convenience is set in motion. These two have an effortless friendship and as they fall deeper and you see their relationship evolve is exciting. Spice level is medium. I love all the past characters . Great read!

    We are thrilled to celebrate SLAP SHOT by Maria Luis is NOW LIVE!

     

    #1ClickHere: https://geni.us/SlapShotBlades

     

    He’ll do anything for his best friend…even marry her.

    I live by two universal truths:

    3. When I step onto the ice, I’m a god.

    4. Daisy Hall is the other half of my soul.

     

    My teammates joke that I’m too co-dependent with the coach’s daughter, and maybe that’s true. We’ve been thick as thieves since college, and even when I got drafted to the Boston Blades, Daisy followed me across state lines. Which suited me just fine.

    If a person can be a home, then Daisy Hall is mine.

    Only, I never anticipated that my best friend might be keeping a secret from me, one big enough to rain down Hell from every team in the league. Now they’re all out for blood and I’m Daisy’s only shield.

    The home we built together suddenly feels like it’s made of glass.

    One wrong move, and it all might shatter.

    The smart thing to do would be to focus on my game. We’re coming off a Cup win, and if I want another, I can’t afford any distractions. But there isn’t anything I won’t do to protect my girl…

    Even make her my wife.

    SLAP SHOT is a friends to lovers/marriage of convenience romance. It is the fifth book in the Blades Hockey series but can be read as a complete standalone.

  • New MMM release !

    October 13th, 2024

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

    We now have East in all his glory and I was waiting to see how hard he would fall! I will say a couple things that I found surprising was that it was a MMM book but with how strong East personality is we should have known. I loved East and Zac but my opinion is mixed on King. The sexy time is a little less in this book but you can see the chemistry between the three even though I personally loved the spark better between East and Zac. To me I guess King still is a mystery to me and I feel like we didn’t really see his true color.

    James “East” Easton

    “The Pompous One”

    I’m so over college. It was supposed to be the time of our lives, a time of debauchery, but one by one, Cupid aimed his arrow and hit every one of my moron friends.

    𝑅𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑝𝑠.

    Could there be anything more soul-sucking and lame? To be tied to one person, and have to think about their…feelings.

    𝐹𝑖𝑛𝑒. 𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟. I’ll look for my fun elsewhere.

    Like that teacher’s assistant who keeps giving me a hard time. I wouldn’t mind shutting him up—with my mouth.
    I wonder if I could provoke him into it…


    Zac Fletcher
    “The Teacher’s Assistant”

    There’s only one person in all of Astor University who makes me rethink my decision to be Professor Kingston’s TA—James Easton, the self-proclaimed leader of the Park Avenue Princes.

    Pretentious doesn’t even begin to cover it. He’s arrogant. Obnoxious. A complete and utter snob.

    But when one fiery exchange between us leads to the hottest sex of my life, I find myself coming up with creative ways to shut him up. East isn’t someone I’d ever consider being with in the real world, but lucky for me, he doesn’t want anything more than a hookup.

    Even better, no one knows. Until the day my boss finds us coming out of the same empty room…together.

    East misses nothing. Not the way I blush around “King.” Or the way my body reacts. When he finds out my secret, East makes it his mission to get the three of us together. After all, there’s nothing he likes more than a challenge.

    And seducing the enigmatic, impenetrable Professor Kingston? That’s going to be the biggest challenge of all.
