Someday You Learn (Carrington Cove #4) 

Blurb:

“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?

Blurb:

Derek Hollins. Safety for the Vegas Storm.

My reputation precedes me. I was the dirtiest of dirty players in the league. I thrived on it.

Until my son came along.

I gave up everything for him. Turned over a new leaf. Put my past behind me.

I wasn’t looking for love—until a chance encounter with a sexy nurse changed everything.

Sutton is sunshine personified. Like me, she’s putting her daughter first. But I want more of her. Any little piece she’ll give me. Sutton awakens feelings in me that I thought were long gone.

Whispers and Wildfire (Have Brothers #4) by Claire Kingsley

He’ll save her from the nightmare in her past.

Luke Haven has an adrenaline problem. As in, he can’t get enough.

His squeaky-clean, nice-guy reputation in his small town isn’t a lie. But it’s not the whole truth, either. Although his real problem? He’s not even sure what he’s searching for.

Melanie Andolini never thought she’d be starting over in her thirties. But moving back to her hometown is exactly the fresh start she needs.

Until she runs into Luke Haven, and things get complicated. Really complicated. Although it feels like a lifetime since they dated in high school, sparks fly as soon as they’re face to face—hot enough to light up the whole town.

Melanie blazes into Luke’s life like wildfire—messy and chaotic, beautiful and tempting. But they played with fire once and both got burned. They’re not going down that road again.

Except Melanie brought home a secret that still haunts her dreams. And when her nightmares turn all too real, Luke will risk everything to save her.

And make her his—this time, forever.

Author’s note: a not-your-usual second chance romance with a fiery heroine and a hero who won’t quench her flames—he’ll bask in her heat. Family shenanigans, witty banter, page-turning suspense, and a wild happily ever after that will leave your heart full.


The Way We Collide by Tia Louise

Blurb:

Football is my life. I’m not interested in marriage or babies or poopy diapers. Yet here I am, standing in front of a judge saying “I do,” with a six-month-old on my hip and an aspiring storm-chaser on my arm.

From the time I was a little boy, sleeping with my head on a football, I’ve had one goal: carrying on the Bradford-family legacy.

Our famous father trained all my older brothers and me to be star athletes just like him, but seven years later, I’m the only one still focused on the game.

Until Raven Gale storms into my life.

She’s smart, sassy, curves for days, and lightning in the sack. When I met her at my little sister’s wedding we bonded immediately over our dedication to our dreams, our determination to let nothing stop us, and our insatiable, all-night, barrier-busting chemistry.

A baby girl is a surprise neither of us expected, but Raven has a plan. We’ll have a quickie marriage to secure her trust fund, be together three months tops, then shake hands and walk away.

The only problem is with every late night I spend chatting with my wife or consummating our marriage (which we agreed was a bad idea) or rocking my baby girl to sleep or yes, even changing poopy diapers, the stronger our bond grows.

It never rains in California, there’s no football (for me) in south Alabama, but when you collide with a cyclone, everything changes, including what you thought were your plans.

(THE WAY WE COLLIDE is a small-town, surprise baby, sports romance with a marriage of convenience, close proximity, an over-protective alpha daddy, a feisty plus-sized FMC, and a few twisters. No cheating. No cliffhanger. No third-act breakup.)

Elderwood Sound (Puffin Bay #8) by Annie Dyer


Puffin Bay had been Zoey’s safe space since she was a teenager, when the jaws of fame had started to bite. I was a bit more than a kid when we became friends, hoping each time she had a break that she’d return to the town, hoping that we could hang-out like we had that first summer.

Hoping that she’d return to me.

I was her first, a favour she asked. She was the first girl I fell in love with, not that she knew. To her, I was a laid back Casanova, never committing to anything apart from my research in marine biology, winging it through life.

Now, both of us several years older, she’s returning to Puffin Bay indefinitely, stepping away from fame and the man who’s been stalking her, a secret she’s been keeping to herself, until now.

It’s my job to keep Zoey safe, and sane, but that’s not the hard thing - somehow I need to keep my heart safe from her breaking it, in case I’m not enough for her to stay.

Loaded Laces by Elisa Faber

A decade ago she broke me.
Now she’s back…with a kid in tow.

Belle Harrison dumped me right before I got my first big contract, breaking my heart and sending me straight into a life of singlehood.

Once bitten and twice shy, and all that.

Of course that was before she showed up after a decade, asking questions in the locker room after a game.
Questions that make me rethink everything I thought I knew.

And remind me why I never wanted to let her go in the first place.

And why I won’t ever let her go ever again.

A novella in the brand new sports romance series, Eagles Hockey, by USA Today Bestselling Author Elise Faber.

Undeniably Enemies by J. Saman


I knew better than to take my best friend's little sister's virginity at that Halloween party.

But in my defense, I didn't know how to say no. Or maybe I simply didn't want to.

She was my Cinderella and I was her masked villain.

Then I ruined everything. Twice.

Years later we're undeniably enemies, our hate for each other legendary.

Except I haven't been able to stop thinking about her. Or that night.

Only now she works for me in the hospital where she's a medical student and I'm an attending physician. Not to mention, without realizing it, I bought the apartment next to hers.

We try to keep things professional but when she learns the truth behind the secrets I've been keeping, angry sparks explode into a raging inferno of scorching touches and burning passion.

I know I have to keep my distance. She's all wrong for me. Too young. Too bratty. Too dangerous to the life I've worked tirelessly to rebuild. The one being with her would destroy.

The problem is, I've never wanted anyone more. And I don't know how to stay away for long.

Especially when I discover I'm not the only one keeping secrets.

Vegas Aces: The Playbook by Lisa Suzanne


As a pro football player, I’m known for scoring both on and off the field. But all that changes when a tragic accident leaves me as a single dad to a little girl.

With our lives flipped upside down, I’m struggling to balance my career with the emotional needs of a girl whose world has been shattered. Despite the long list of women I could turn to, none of them measure up—not when I see the undeniable connection between my daughter and her reading teacher, Victoria…the woman who happens to be my enemy.

Our constant bickering feels like some twisted form of foreplay, and she offers me one night to “get it out of our systems.” But one night isn’t enough, and when the worst happens, I turn to Victoria first.

It’s what my daughter would want, but it’s quickly becoming what I need.

Then one mistake sets off a chain of events I never saw coming—legal battles, jail time, and league punishments. But none of that scares me as much as losing the two most important people in my life.

I never imagined I'd find the kind of unconditional love I’ve found with my daughter and Victoria. But somehow I’ve fumbled it all and lost them both.

Now I’m rewriting the playbook and doing whatever it takes to win them back.

Read the Excerpt:

Miles

I breathe out hard, giving in to the lust that grips me, the want I feel for her…my coach’s daughter.

For a few seconds, I freeze over those words—coach’s daughter. 

Don’t go there again. Get it together. Stop f*&king thinking of her.

But the dick is sometimes stronger than the will.

I ignore that voice because it doesn’t matter what I do when I’m home alone. It’s what I do when I’m with her that counts. I haven’t crossed the line again. And baggage or no baggage, we’re not going to be a thing. But her admission that she looks at the pictures too? It’s what I wanted. It’s what I needed. It’s also all I can have of her.

So what’s the harm in giving in tonight?

Blurb:

I was looking forward to my first semester of grad school until I discovered I’d be living with my new stepbrother. And not just any stepbrother—Griffin Moore, the drop-dead gorgeous starting wide receiver for the Virginia Silverbacks. He’s also my mom’s idea of the perfect roommate.

However, he doesn’t want me in his space any more than I want to be here. I like my life the same way I like my men—quiet and predictable. Griffin is neither. His boisterous, larger-than-life personality makes me completely tongue-tied, and every time he smiles, my heart trips over the next beat.

And the worst part? He’s secretly become the inspiration for the hero in the romance novel I’m writing, and the words are flowing better than ever.

Now, I just need to survive living under the same roof as the man who makes me want to toss my rules out the window and risk everything for the love story I never planned on writing… my own.

But how can I do that when taking a chance on him would be the riskiest move of all?

Blurb:

Knox stood across from me, anger in his eyes, his right hand in a fist ready to hit me. In that moment, as I stared at him trying to figure out what to say before he hit me, I wished I’d never walked into that little dive bar.

Actually, that wasn’t true because that was the night that changed my life forever.

That was the night I saved Knox’s little sister, Peyton, from making what I was certain was a huge mistake I’d figure she’d regret for the rest of her life.

We all had a code among the players on the team. We all looked after one another, and that included family members. So, when I saw some guy hitting on Peyton, I stepped in. I pretended to be her boyfriend to get rid of the guy who’d been hitting on her and when she turned those big hazel eyes on me things didn’t stop there. I bought her drinks, let her vent out her frustrations about the fight she’d just had with her brother and then one thing led to another, and she ended up wrapped up in my sheets.

A few months later, the memory of her and that night remains fresh in my mind and soon she is all I can think about. Thankfully, I get to see her again at the season’s end barbeque. Armed with good intentions, that is when I find out everything is about to change in not only my life but hers, including my friendship with her brother.

The guys on the team had always told me love would hit me when I least expected it, either that or I’d get a girl in trouble. I just never believed they would both happen at the same time.

Save Your Breath by Kandi Steiner

𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐈𝐍: 𝐇𝐎𝐂𝐊𝐄𝐘 𝐁𝐀𝐃 𝐁𝐎𝐘 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐏𝐎𝐏 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑 𝐄𝐗𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐎𝐑𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐀𝐆𝐄𝐃!

That was the headline we wanted. If only I’d known the cost to get it.

Aleksander Suter has been my best friend since high school—and the only man who’s ever been able to truly get under my skin. With his reputation for trouble and a smirk that could melt ice, he’s also the NHL’s favorite bad boy.

When my publicist’s plan to fix my image collides with his need to clean up his own, we find ourselves in a fake engagement that feels too real from the start.

Now, I’m releasing my new album, putting on a show for the paparazzi I usually try to dodge, and falling too fast for a man who never falls for anyone. Every stolen glance, every heated touch blurs the lines between us until I’m wondering where the lies end and the truth begins.

And when a hurricane traps us together in his high-rise condo, all my carefully built walls collapse, and resisting the pull between us becomes a losing game.

Suddenly, the stakes are higher than just headlines, and the risks feel more personal than ever.

But as our past resurfaces and old feelings reignite, I realize the biggest risk isn’t losing my career—it’s losing my heart to the one person I thought would never be mine.

Buried Dreams by Natasha Madison

Blurb:

Everleigh

One night changed my whole life.

After the truth about that night came out, I left, taking my broken heart with me.

I knew the past was waiting to slice me open again.

But I was left with no choice but to go back.

Feelings and old emotions are like dandelions; no matter how many times you pull them out or try to get rid of them, they refuse to go away.

And he was that for me.

My everything until he was my nothing.

 

Brock

My father taught me about honor and integrity.

And in one split second, I ruined it all.

I lost the only dream I ever had and everything I ever wanted.

But I had no choice.

I tried to move on with my life.

I put all my focus on my daughter, never expecting to see the one woman I’d loved and lost.

They say time heals old wounds.

They were wrong.

Scars left from the past are easy to reopen.

I just hope I can survive the pain all over again.

Blurb:

A Gilmore Girls meets Schitt’s Creek redemption romcom.

Hazel Hart was a successful romance novelist until a breakup drives her straight into writer’s block. Having failed (and failed some more) to deliver her new manuscript, she’s hiding from the world behind a wall of old takeout containers until her publisher lays down the law. If she misses her next deadline it’s The End.

Desperate for inspiration, Hazel impulse-buys a historic home online and flees Manhattan to tiny Story Lake, PA. Upon her dramatic arrival—involving an incident with a bald eagle—she discovers the charm of her new home may have been 
slightly exaggerated.

The house is a wreck and the town is struggling after their biggest employer shut down. Also, since her raccoon-infested home came with a seat on the town council our introverted heroine is stuck with a front row seat to all the small-town shenanigans.

But Hazel isn’t worried. Not since all six-feet-three inches of grouchy contractor Campbell Bishop slapped a bandage on her forehead and unintentionally inspired the heck out of her. There’s only one thing to do: Hire Cam and his equally gorgeous brothers to renovate her new spider museum…er…house.

Okay two things. A fake date for “research purposes” will really put her work-in-progress on track. Before Hazel knows it, she’s writing a romance novel 
and living one. At least until the drywall dust settles, the town she’s falling in love with faces bankruptcy, and growly Cam remembers why he can’t live happily ever after.

Heartbreaker by Kat Mizera and Brit Benson

https://geni.us/HeartbreakerEFKM

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.

Sleepless Nights and Hockey Fights 

by Marika Ray and Sylvie Stewart


🏒❤️ READ: https://mybook.to/HockeyFights⁠

Tropes:⁠
💕 Reverse age gap (she’s older and wiser!)⁠
💃 Opposites attract (struggling single mom vs pro athlete)⁠
🏒 Pro hockey (all those yummy teammates…)⁠
👦🏻 Single mom (pre-teen boys are a handful)⁠
⛸ He falls first (she knocks him right off his skates)

Blurb:

I’m a hot-headed pro hockey player with a reputation for two things: reckless fights on the ice and a taste for older women off of it. But this time I might just be in over my head with an older single mom.

With the team’s new head coach on my case, I can’t afford any more screw-ups. He thinks I need to grow up, and I’m out to prove I can get my act together once and for all. In fact, I just hired a realtor to help me buy a house. How’s that for grown up?

Except the realtor turns out to be the quiet, captivating single mom of a boy I mentor on a youth hockey league. I should keep things strictly business, but she knocks me off my skates with those pencil skirts and mom voice.

Molly insists she’s too old for me, and I say opposites attract. As I fight for my spot on the ice and battle some personal demons, she’s juggling an unpredictable pre-teen, an ex who belongs in the penalty box, and a case of insomnia that has me calling new plays between the sheets.

If I push too hard, I know she’ll run. But there’s no way I’m throwing in the towel–not when I’ve realized her heart is the only thing worth fighting for.

Sleepless Nights and Hockey Fights is a reverse age gap, single mom pro hockey romance with all the spice and a game-winning HEA. It’s the fourth book in the Hot Flash Hookups series, and can be read as a standalone.


Quitting the Quarterback by Lisa Suzanne

A steamy Pro Football, Single Mom, Forbidden Doctor/Patient Romance from Amazon Top Ten Bestselling author Lisa Suzanne.

I went to Vegas to celebrate my divorce, and the pro football star was there celebrating his new contract. I heard someone call his name, and I wasn't about to miss my chance to get with the man my ex had idolized. I didn't find out until long after a sizzling night filled with fingertips dragging along skin and breathless whispered pleas that it was a case of mistaken identity.

I never thought I'd see him again, but then he walks into my office. I'm working hard to rebuild myself as a financially independent single mother when my eyes lift to the VIP client my boss warned me about. 

Anger courses through my veins, yet I can't seem to tear my gaze from those smoky blue eyes.

But the sly look in his eyes from that night is replaced by brokenness after an injury that just took him out for the season, and now it's my job to help rehabilitate him and get him ready for next season. 

Quitting the quarterback seems nearly impossible, but if I don't do it, I might just lose everything I've worked for.

Frankie (Big Northwest #5) by Janice Whiteaker


Read in kindle unlimited:

Blurb:
Frankie’s avoided JD for years.
Stayed as far from him as possible while twisting the old hurt of his rejection into something new. Something more tolerable and easier to manage.
Anger.
And boy does the man know how to make her angry.
The feeling seemed to be mutual, which is why she’s shocked—and a little enraged—when he suddenly inserts himself into her life.
Now he’s everywhere. Her job. Her house. Even her freaking bathroom. The man is inescapable.
So are the feelings she’s worked hard to ignore.
He takes care of her without making her feel weak. Offers solutions when she needs them and listens when she doesn’t.
And the man never misses a chance to cuddle.
But the past can be hard to get over.
Especially when it keeps coming back to haunt you.

A Tale of Three Signings (Spring 2024 book signing recap)

  Over the past seven weeks I attended three book signings, each two weeks apart, I started at the Sweetgrass Author Event in Charleston, SC. From there I visited some family in West Virginia and Pennsylvania before my oldest daughter and I traveled to Ellicott City, MD, for Charm City Romanticon. After that, I returned home to Colorado before driving to Aurora for Readers Take Denver, where I was assisting Sara Madderson/Elodie Hart and also had a reader ticket. Below I will share some pictures and a recap of each signing as it was for me.  Sweetgrass was the fifth signing event I have attended that was put on by Southern Belles. It was also undoubtably the largest. With a stellar author lineup, there were a lot of tickets sold. In my opinion, probably too many. For a six hour signing, I was able to get to a shockingly few authors in my time there. They hit a few snags with this one.  First, let me talk about the city of Charleston.  Rich in history, with out of thi...

Best Reads of 2024

 It is 2025! It feels like 2024 flew by.  This year's "best of" list is a little different.  In part this is due to time constraints and in part due to the fact that some trope categories have a LOT of excellent reads.  I just could not narrow them down to even eight for the graphics. I obviously have my favorite tropes, as this list will tell you. If you don't see a trope here on this list, it may be that I read one and it just wasn't quite a five star read for me. Most of the books I read are either four or five star reads. I have found what I like, and I tend to stick to it. You can search the labels on the main page of my blog or search in the general search bar to pull up books from another category and read my reviews. If a book is on this list, it was a five star read for me. That means I loved it, I found no major flaws in timeline, editing, or characters, and I would want to read it again. The links I am including are for Amazon out of ease, but several o...

Book reviews from the week of May 19th

  Happy weekend. This week I read three ARCs and two books from my TBR.  All three ARCs will release the first week of June and the two books on my TBR have been on my kindle for a while. They served as perfect palette cleansers between these wonderful ARCs. Both books from my TBR offered heroines with disability. In The Marquess and I, Willow is blind. In Wolf Signs, the heroine is deaf. I felt like the authors handled both situations well within their stories and it made them interesting reads. Check out my reviews and add these to your TBR today if they grab you. I don't think you will regret it. Happy reading!
