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.

Blurb:
Marcus Evans was the love of my life until a cruel twist of fate tore us apart.
I told myself I moved on.
Until seven years later, when he comes walking back into my classroom, a completely different man than the hockey star I fell in love with–and father to two little girls.
I’ve done my best not to think about him since a quickie wedding in Vegas. Only it turns out, those marriage papers might still be valid after all.
There’s no escaping Marcus now that he’s back in my life. The more we see one another, the more I see the man I fell in love with. When I learn the truth about what tore us apart, the icy walls around my heart melt.

Even if it might break me in the end.

Mr. Swoony (The Nest #3) by Piper Rayne


Hockey players were never my type.

At least, that’s what I thought—until I met Conor Nilsen. In truth, I didn’t know he was the goalie for the Chicago Falcons when he struck up a conversation the night of my bachelorette party.

He proved he wasn’t just some hot guy looking to score when he helped me get my drunk bridesmaid safely back to our hotel. That’s when he discovered my 30-before-30 bucket list—a list I hadn’t managed to check a single item off.

What was meant to be a night of stargazing turned into so much more. The chemistry between us was undeniable, and after one innocent night together, I started to question everything—especially my upcoming wedding to a man I wasn’t sure loved me.

Fast forward to my wedding day, and just as I’m standing at the altar, Conor bursts through the church doors to object. And now, somehow, I’m his roommate. Yikes.

Duke of Pryde by Mariah Stone


A marriage of convenience forces a powerful duke to choose between his ferocious pride and unexpected love that melts his icy heart.


Reputation is everything in the ton. And no one's is more pristine than the Duke of Pryde's. But when a blackmailer threatens to expose his devastating secret he’s forced to marry Miss Modesty Fairchild, a woman far below his station, his perfect facade begins to fracture.


A budding archeologist, Miss Modesty Fairchild would rather dig in the dirt than host a gala. But a deathbed promise has left her the guardian of an orphaned baby. She’ll do anything to protect her little ward…even marry the heartless duke who looks down his nose at her.


Lonely and lost in Pyrde’s elegant Mayfair home, she despises him. But his touch awakens a longing that leaves her quaking. And when his rigid control shatters, desire consumes them both. Glimpsing the tender heart beneath her husband’s haughty exterior, Modesty dreams of a loving future.


But a villain in the shadows plots Pryde’s downfall. And as the Seven Dukes of Sin hunt for clues, the blackmailer raises the stakes.


Faced with a dreadful choice, will Constantine sacrifice his reputation and his fortune for the wife and child he has come to treasure?

The Merger by Adriana Locke


Crushes are harmless—unless they involve your best friend’s grumpy, off-limits brother.

Gannon Brewer is the epitome of my type. He’s at least ten years older than me, emotionally unavailable, and highly disagreeable—basically a walking red flag in a tailored suit. But do I listen to that? No. In fact, when his office plants start dying, I convince myself that I can ignore the pheromones and save the philodendron.

Now I’m in his office every week, dodging sinful smirks and heated stares, reminding myself to reach for the watering can—not him. But one “ivy incident” changes everything. Suddenly, we’re sneaking around, indulging in a steamy, forbidden fling that’s supposed to be nothing more than (a lot of) fun.

After all, he swears he’ll never fall in love. I assure him that I only want one thing, and it’s not his heart. But the closer we get, the more lines we blur, and the harder it becomes to keep our promises …

Especially when the secret I’m keeping threatens to shatter everything.

On Loverose Lane by Samantha Young


Imagine my surprise when my new neighbor turns out to be one of Scotland’s most famous (and hottest) professional footballers, Callan Keen. I’m even more shocked to discover that the brooding player is still holding a grudge for something that happened (or didn’t happen) between us years ago.

Too busy trying to take my social media management company to the next level, I don’t have time for this gorgeous blast from the past. Or at least I shouldn’t. Yet whenever I see him, I can’t help but engage in a battle of wits with the grump upstairs.

When a huge client opportunity arises, circumstances force me to enlist Callan’s help. I require a fake date and Callan needs me to facilitate a meeting with my dad to further his own business interests.

The deal between us should be simple. Except, of course, the blazing chemistry we’ve shared since the moment we met. We can’t deny it, we can’t control it, and soon we’re agreeing to six weeks of no-strings-attached, mind-blowing, steamy shenanigans.

I told myself I was too smart to catch feelings. But when Callan finally finds out the truth about our past, he becomes the guy I used to know. And that man is way too easy to fall for.

The problem is that Callan has vowed to never let another person close enough to break his heart again.

It just might prove impossible to show my stubborn Scotsman I’m worth the risk, especially when old wounds are re-opened and threaten to wreck any chance of a future together…

The #1 International bestselling author is back with this emotional and steamy sports romance in which ambitious entrepreneur, Beth Carmichael, meets her match in the grumpy football captain who moves into the apartment above hers.

Play Off (L.A. Phantoms #4) by Kat Mizera

My first love. The one I never forgot.

How are we supposed to choose between the future we’ve dreamed of and the past we never let go of?

Here and Now by Corinne Michaels


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.

Love Me Gently by Stacey Lynn

At eighteen years old, Katrina “Trina” Mills had dreams far larger than her small mountain town in North Carolina. She was bound and determined to become the next world-famous model, and was willing to risk leaving everything she knew, and everyone she loved, behind to get it.

Turns out, her dreams took her on a path toward a nightmare. She might have achieved all the success and stardom she’s always wanted but she’d sold her soul for them and was still paying the painful price.

The regrets she has now are much larger than the zeros in her bank account.

When a chance encounter occurs with her first love and high school boyfriend, now single father, Cole Paxton, she doesn’t expect the disaster that happens next. Forced to confront her past, her present, and all the decisions she made in between, returning home may end up being the safe solace she needed all along.

With the help of family, old friends, and an old flame who never gave up on her, Trina starts to believe she can heal and move on…

Until her husband shows up in town and threatens to tear it all away….

Trigger warnings: Implications and descriptions of both sexual and physical assault are included in Love Me Gently. In an effort to be as compassionate as possible, the instances are brief and minimal, but sensitive readers should take care.

Audacity (Seraph #1) by Elodie Hart

Read in Kindle Unlimited : https://www.amazon.com/Audacity-Seraph-Elodie-Hart-ebook/dp/B0D1PC9FHN?ref_=ast_author_dp_rw&th=1&psc=1

Blurb:

ATHENA
I've always shot for the moon, but if you'd told me I'd be earning seven figures aged twenty-four, I would never have believed you.

And if you'd told me that I'd earn every penny of that success by selling my body and my soul, I'd have laughed in your face.

Still. Here I am at Seraph, an elite agency that recruits only the most well-educated, accomplished and discreet women.

Our area of expertise? "Full service" executive assistants to the most powerful men in the world.

Whatever our bosses need, we provide. Day or night, in the boardroom or the bedroom.

It's every bit the challenge I've longed for, and it's more fulfilling than I could ever have dreamt. My secret? Discipline. An open mind. And rock-solid boundaries.

None of which are a problem, until I cross paths with Gabriel Sullivan, a former Catholic priest turned billionaire CEO whose appetites are voracious as his demons are relentless.

In the midst of all his inner turmoil and outer pressures, I know it's my very impassiveness that he values the most.

Too bad he's the only man I've worked for who makes me want to burn every one of my boundaries to ash.

Audacity is a scorching hot billionaire, age gap, workplace romance spun off from my Alchemy series. It's the story of Athena, Anton Wolff's "full service" executive assistant in Unveil.

There are group activities along the way, but Athena and Gabriel get a monogamous HEA.


The Broker by Nikki Sloane 

I used to be daddy’s little princess, but I failed out of college and ran away with an older man. Now my father has me cleaning houses to make up for the biggest mistake of my life.

As if that wasn’t punishment enough, it becomes a million times worse when I’m forced to take on Noah Robinson as a client.

He was supposed to be a one-night stand. One scorching night with no last names or commitment. Now I’m working for him, and every week that goes by it gets harder for us to keep things professional.

Plus, the more I learn about him and the secret, sexy lifestyle he lives, the deeper my craving for him becomes.

But I’m out of chances with my father, I can’t risk blowing my life up again.

Noah and I know we can’t be together . . .

Because I’m his boss’s daughter.

Love On Ice by J.A. Low

Harper Rose is a billionaire heiress and the PR Queen of New York. The only problem is she is unlucky in love. After another failed relationship, she decides to give up on dating and heads to The Paradise Club Resort to heal.

Unexpectedly, she runs into Felix St. Pierre, the much younger, tattooed, ice hockey bad boy, and they hit it off instantly.

Don’t they say to get over someone, you have to get under someone else? 

Felix St. Pierre is a hockey superstar whose personal life has imploded after his girlfriend left him for his teammate. Broken-hearted, he fills the void with puck bunnies and partying, which lands him front and center in the news and in a heap of trouble. To avoid the spotlight and nurse his broken heart, he escapes to The Paradise Club Resort. What he wasn’t expecting was to run into a gorgeous, captivating Harper Rose.

What happens in Paradise is supposed to stay in Paradise. 

When the tabloids find out about their vacation and report to the world that they are dating, the internet explodes with the news, as does her ex, and that’s when his threats start coming. Felix doesn’t want what happened in Paradise to end and suggests they should fake-date for the summer to make her ex back off. Harper isn’t keen on the idea until her ex gives her a reason to accept his help.

The only problem is when the summer is over, and the lines between fake and real have started to blur, will they take a shot on goal, or will they end up in the end zone?

💕1st POV

 

Quarterback Clay "Mr. Perfect" Braden is determined to show sexy scientist Pepper Montgomery the benefits of hands-on research in PLAYING MR. PERFECT, the first book in the Bradens at Ridgeport series. Loaded with heat, humor, and heart, this steamy, small-town, opposites-attract standalone romance is unputdownable.No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a happily ever after that will leave you breathless.

What happens in Paris, stays in Paris, right?

Oh, Pepper. If only...

Okay, I admit it.

Sleeping with the NFL quarterback who the media has dubbed Mr. Perfect might not have been the smartest move, but I’m in the City of Love, I’d had a few drinks, and was jacked up on giddy girl talk and hopeful hearts—two things I never buy into—and I threw caution to the wind.

I want to sneak out before he wakes up, but when I open my eyes, he’s already up.

In more ways than one.

Convincing the ridiculously cocky (pun intended) man that I’m not the woman he slept with last night is awkward.

Actually, he makes it impossible.

The thing is, I don’t even know who that woman was.

And now he’s determined to find out.

Elevator Pitch (Callaghan Green #11) by Annie Dyer

The final and first book in the Callaghan series is available on all platforms. This was the first series I wrote, the books that made me a published writer. I fell in love with characters in my head and some how made them real to other people. I know that this series is some people’s comfort read and that made the RSI in my hands worthwhile. Ellie, Oliver, Minnow and Barbie were pawing for my attention while I wrote these books, and Margot, Otter, Pepper and Mabel have also knocked my pens off my desk or written a few words themselves. If you haven’t met the Callaghans, may I introduce you?
If it doesn’t bring you joy…
Marie Callaghan knows that selling your family’s home is never going to be an easy thing to do, especially when your grown-up kids suddenly develop attachments made of steel to the bricks, mortar and Christmas decs from decades ago that can’t possibly be thrown away. She’s prepared for the adult-sized tantrums, the discovery of secrets hidden in old cupboards and reminders of some of the best - and worst – times.
But what she isn’t prepared for is her own memories. Almost forty years ago, across the Atlantic, she met a single dad whose life was in a mess, and he rearranged her life forever. This is their love story, one their children never wanted to hear, because there wasn’t enough bleach.
A one-night stand that became a lifetime. Four kids that became seven. A broken man with a heart she could mend and a house where everything restarted.

All because of an elevator and the best pitch Grant Callaghan ever gave in his life.


Beyond Highland Sunrise (Special Ops Scots #2) 

by Kait Nolan

The last thing I need while trying to make a success of my outdoor adventure company is a beautiful distraction. It takes all my focus to fight off the demons that remain from the injury that ended my career as a Royal Marine and deal with the clients that make me want to climb the nearest mountain and never come down.

But Parker Lawrence walks into our office, takes over a phone call, and changes everything. My desperate desire to keep her close has nothing to do with the fact that she's sunshine personified—sweet, capable, and completely unfazed by my grumpitude and total lack of charm.

She’s also hiding something. I should mind my own business, but this bright Southern belle has gotten under my skin, and I want to save her every bit as much as it feels like she's saving me.

When her secret catches up to her, I'll do anything to keep her safe, even if those overprotective instincts risk driving away the best thing that's ever walked into my life.

This Wild Heart by Karla Sorensen

Blurb:

Who forgets marrying a football player? Me, apparently. Turns out countless shots and a bad breakup lead to questionable decision making. But waking up in Vegas with a ring on my finger beside a hot, naked man is hard to ignore. I married Parker Wilder. Thanks to our quickie nuptials, I’ll get my inheritance, and he’ll get his family and their well-intentioned meddling off his back.

Forgetting the wedding was the easy part. Being married to him is a whole different story. Parker is too … everything. Chiseled by the gods good-looking. A heartbreaking kind of broody. The kind of man you know will wreck you for all others. Good thing this is all pretend. And oh, how we pretend. We pretend ourselves right into me ripping the clothes off his body.

It’s all fun and fake marriage until the day he gets a knock on the door with the surprise of a lifetime. Until the bomb goes off and we’re left to pick up the pieces. Until the pretending stops and we’re left with only one question: was any of it real?

It was supposed to be an easy house- and dog-sitting gig while the owner was gone for a month. But when my sportsing landlord comes home unexpectedly, injured and in need of a new arrangement, we end up as accidental roommates instead.
But if Holt Webster, the tall, thick-muscled, square-jawed, broody-eyed rugby player, had told me he played for the Copper Valley Pounders, I would’ve told him that my stepdad bought the team while I was working cruise ships overseas.
And he would’ve noped out of offering me a place to stay because the only thing worse than looking like you’re flirting with the owner’s daughter is looking like you’re hooking up with the owner’s pregnant daughter.
Yes, yes, I’m that woman—the one who accidentally got knocked up, decided to keep the baby, and had to move home because pregnancy and cruise ships aren’t a good match.
And now I’m that woman who doesn’t just look like she’s hooking up with an off-limits player. I actually am hooking up with an off-limits player. But who can blame me? He’s hot. He’s kind. And he’s spending our nights sleeping with his hand on my baby bump.
Claiming us both.
But if my dad finds out, Holt’s gone. And we’ll be…rucked.
The Roommate Mistake is a heart-tugging sports romcom featuring two people in need of new best friends, a dog with an attitude, and a very…fowl…meet-cute. It stands alone and comes complete with a found family happily ever after.
Content note: This book features a hero dealing with the loss of his brother to cancer.

Single Mom's Guide to Love by Chelle Sloan

A sexy, marriage of convenience, one night stand, British hero romance from bestselling author, Chelle Sloan.

GUIDE TO LOVE RULE #50: Love isn't always convenient. Sometimes marriage is.
My name is Maeve Banks—Type A single mom; oldest daughter; and renowned interior designer for millionaire bachelors.
And the new Mrs. Logan Matthews.
The latter title is not something I wanted, but something I was forced to do. And for good reason: My adorable six-year old son.
The guide for my perfectly controlled life was simple: No dating or distractions. Focus on my son and my business.
Everything was going to plan until the night Logan Matthews—one of the world's youngest, and most eligible billionaires—sits down next to me at an airport bar.
He distracted me with his perfect smile and chiseled jaw line. His British accent didn’t hurt either.
When he asked me to dance? I was a goner.
But it was one night. No harm in a little fun, right?
Wrong.
Turns out my one-night of fun is now my newest client.
Which is fine. I'm an adult. I can resist his charm. And that he's great with my son. Or when he calls me "love.”
But as much as both of us make it look like we have our lives in order, they're anything but.
So Logan offers me a proposal—the one where we get married as a temporary fix to both our problems.
My ex-husband is fighting for custody of my son. And Logan needs a wife to give the media something to talk about.
It's a marriage of convenience. Nothing more, nothing less.
There's just one problem: I think I'm falling in love with my husband.
And there's no guide to love for that

Just One More Temptation by Carly Phillips

He’s a grumpy single dad who's serious and uptight.
She’s a younger free spirit who's sunshine and light.
Fallon Sterling’s one experience with a rich, older man ended in heartbreak. So when twin nine-year-old girls wind up in her gallery, followed by their oh-so-hot dad, she refuses to notice how sexy he is. And she will not let herself fall for his broody charms. Or his adorable daughters. That was her plan. Unfortunately, planning hasn't always been her strong suit…
Noah Powers needs a reliable nanny, not a romance with a much younger artist who his girls adore. The fact that he desires Fallon and the sunshine she brings into his drab world doesn't matter. His focus needs to be on his work and his daughters. Trouble is, he can never remember that when Fallon is in his arms.
Somewhere between a matchmaking family (his) and dangerous workplace drama (hers), Fallon and Noah realize they might have more in common than they thought. But is it enough for happily ever after?

Just One More Temptation, book 3 in the stand-alone Sterling Family series, is a spicy, fun, hot, age-gap, single-dad, contemporary romance. Order today, and welcome to romantic escapism at its steamiest.

Axe Backwards by Daphne Elliot

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…

  • Single Dad (not his baby)
  • Neighbors
  • Fake Relationship
  • Firefighter Lumberjack MMC
  • Bleeding Heart FMC
  • Small Town Maine

Once in a while, after life gets you down, the universe throws you a bone. And if you’re really lucky, it

comes in the form of a tattooed baby-wearing firefighter with piercing blue eyes and a heart of gold.

When Noah Hebert swung his axe and rescued me from a coffee shop bathroom, I had only a vague

sense of who the tattooed lumberjack was. Turns out he’s more than broad shoulders and a thick

beard. He’s a devoted single dad and my new neighbor.

Soon after, we find ourselves falling into an easy friendship. I help him with his fussy baby, and he helps

me survive my ex-husband and little sister’s wedding. Despite my vow never to risk my heart again, my

defenses quickly crumble. The sight of him rocking his sweet baby in those muscular, inked arms only

makes matters worse. And when he defends me to my toxic family, the sparks of attraction between us

catch fire.

I moved back here with a mission. Grow the food pantry and make our little town a better place. I can’t

get mixed up with the grieving single dad, even if he likes to braid my hair and slow dance in the

kitchen.

He moved across the country to escape the flames of his past and protect the little girl he now calls his

own. But our town is sitting on a bed of secrets ready to ignite.

And when the heat causes my world to go up in smoke, I’m not sure it’s possible to sift through the

rubble and find our happily ever after.

Author’s Note: Axe Backwards is a standalone small-town romance featuring a bleeding-heart heroine,

a lumberjack firefighter, and a cute baby. If you enjoy single dads, fake dating, small-town shenanigans,

lumberjack competitions, and baby sign language, you will not be disappointed. Come for the wood

chopping, stay for the moose!


Demetri by C.M. Smith


Tropes:
Romantic Suspense
Small-Town
Protector

Blurb: 

My name is Demitri Petrov.

My father was the head of the Bratva for the east coast. He ruled the area with an iron fist, bringing in drugs, women, and murder. I wanted nothing to do with it. When he died, the family fell apart. I had freedom for the first time in my life.

I’ve learned not to trust anyone. Finding someone who shares that philosophy? Who wants no strings and no commitment? And a desire that matches mine? Perfect.

Mia Alexander fit the bill for all of my fantasies. She wanted the same things I did. Her own past creating invisible chains around her heart.

After breaking my own rules and falling for Mia, she’s in danger because of me. I’m being pulled back into the life I fought so hard to leave behind. And they will use Mia against me if they have to. Because I’m never going to be truly free. My name ensures that.

But I’ll be damned if Mia is hurt because of me.

I’ll make sure the world burns before that happens.

My name is Demitri Petrov. And I will protect what is mine.

Cross Checked by Julia Connors

𝟏-𝐂𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎𝐃𝐀𝐘! 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐢𝐧 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝! https://geni.us/CrossChecked


Tropes:

🏒 enemies to lovers

🏒 single dad

🏒 reverse age gap

🏒 forced proximity

🏒 female GM x hockey captain



Blurb:

Some people might call it a grudge, but in reality, hating Alessandra Jones is more like an obsession.

AJ is the league’s first female general manager, and my boss. As the team captain, I have to play nice with her—in public, at least.

But in private, the gloves come off. And then one time, our clothes do too.

We vow it won’t happen again.

Not only can we not stand each other, but we’re in tense negotiations over my contract right now, and AJ is up for the league’s GM of the Year award. Getting involved wouldn’t just be a PR nightmare—it would be unethical.

It doesn’t help that we have a history, or that she and my daughter adore each other. When AJ is injured protecting my baby, there’s no choice but to move her into my place.

Taking care of someone I hate shouldn’t feel so right. Getting to know her better shouldn’t break down my defenses. She’s hurt me once before, and I’d be a fool to trust her again.

But the more time we spend together, the more I realize that maybe I’m not obsessed with hating her . . . maybe I’m just obsessed with her.

Not that it’s any hardship—Allison is damn perfect, and the twins are worming their way into my heart. I enjoy reading them bedtime stories, eating pizza, while watching the same cartoons for the millionth time. I’m ready to adopt them tomorrow if they’d have me.

💕Childhood Friends
🔥Crush Revealed
💕Fake Engagement
🔥More Secrets
💕Small Town Swoon
🔥All the steam!

These former friends might be faking their engagement, but revealed crushes prove there might not be anything fictional about their arrangement.

In college, I often saw Judd Sylver in the library. He was a cool, broody type of guy who reminded me of a deeply tortured soul who might write poetry.

He was very different from the boy I met in third grade on National Make a New Friend Day when I passed him a note, asking if he wanted to be my new friend: Check yes or no.

(I’m a bit obsessed with calendar days.)

He was also vastly different from the young man who stood me up after I asked him to his prom.

Twenty years later, I can let bygones be bygones, especially when he rescues me from a bad date.

Then I witness him breaking up with his girlfriend which resulted in a sticky coffee drink on his chiseled cheeks and ice cubes on his fine-fitting jeans.

I offered him a napkin.

Hey, once a friend, always a friend, right? *insert sarcasm*

However, Judd takes us to the next level at my mother’s garden party, where a misunderstanding occurs with a teeny tiny slip of the tongue and a precious ring on my finger.

And suddenly, I’m Judd’s fiancée.

Fake or not, things are about to get a little too real with my old friend.

Blurb:

He’s my sister’s ex, a stubborn jerk, and completely off-limits.
Getting a man to give up custody of a son he didn’t know existed should have been easy. Trouble is, nothing with JP King is ever easy.
Suave, grumpy billionaires aren’t supposed to have strong hands or filthy mouths, and I never expected our snippy banter to be so much fun.
JP regards me as something he scraped off the bottom of his dress shoe, but when this reluctant single dad looks at my nephew, there’s a softness there he struggles to keep hidden.
He may be gruff and uptight, but something simmers beneath his controlled, polished exterior. Sure, I’m wild and reckless, but when we’re forced together as guardians, everything changes.
His cold and calculated exterior melts into hushed conversations and lingering stares. The more we fight, the harder we fall.
I’m scatterbrained, unconventional, and everything he’s been missing. The closer we get, the less we understand why we were ever at odds.

. . . until just like that our lives are turned upside down.

Sometimes You Fall (Carrington Cove #3) 

by Harlow James

Blurb:

They used to call me one of the greatest baseball pitchers of all time.

Now someone is about to call me ‘Dad.’

Losing my major league baseball career led me back to my hometown with a chip on my shoulder and no one to blame but myself.

And even though I reluctantly just agreed to help coach the high school baseball team, my life felt flat.

But when my crush from high school tells me she’s pregnant after one hot night together, my dull life from before becomes anything less than boring.

Unfortunately, the way I found out was after her teenage son broke into my automotive repair business, making our relationship even more complicated.

Scottie Daniels has always been the girl that got away.

But now that she’s having my kid, the dream of a family with my dream girl becomes the only thing I can focus on.

Can I persuade her to give us a chance at having a family?

Can I get her son to let me in too?

And can I also convince Scottie that sometimes you fall—but you can fall into the right place at the right time with the right man when it counts?

The Way We Score by Tia Louise

We promised our love was forever. A decade later, two little blue lines might settle the score.

You've heard of those kids who peak in high school?
Meet my love life.
Garrett Bradford was mine from the moment we saw each other in ninth grade.
Even then, he was a six-foot-four mountain of muscles with bright blue eyes, a wide grin, and a way with his hands.
He was the high school football star, and I was the dance team captain.
We were the storybook cliché... until we weren't.

Now he's the most famous offensive lineman in the league, and I'm a buttoned-up, ultra-professional lawyer.
My dancing days are over, and my carefully controlled life is a mess.
Infertility killed my marriage, or that's what I told myself. Infertility and a cheating ex.
And my inability to get over Garrett Bradford.

One reckless night at his little sister's wedding is only supposed to be a reunion, a trip down memory lane to a time when life was happier.
Six weeks later, I'm staring at a positive pregnancy test wondering, How did this happen?

I figure I'm on my own until Garrett overhauls his life, moves back to our small town, and shows up every day to massage my feet, hold my hair when I barf, and go with me to all my doctor's appointments.

Our situation has an end date, just like it did so many years ago.
Unless this little score changes the game and gives us the second chance I thought we'd lost.

About the Book:

Hot playboy billionaires? Definitely not my type. Until one offers me a ride to California—with some dangerously irresistible “lessons” thrown in. Now I’m torn between protecting my heart and taking a wild risk that could change everything…

Making it as a fashion designer in New York City feels a lot like trying to fly to the moon with homemade wings. My Instagram is slowly gaining traction, but the grind is exhausting. So when my best friend asks me to be the maid of honor at her shotgun wedding in Malibu, I’m tempted to head back to L.A. for good. Especially since my unrequited crush is also on the guest list.

But the night before my road trip, my friend Sloane drags me along to a swanky Hamptons party where I happen to meet her boss, Colton Maddox, a hot billionaire and notorious playboy. Totally not my type, which I tell him, right after he flashes me an admittedly-killer smile and insists on buying me a drink.

The next morning, I open the door to find Colton standing there with coffee and a luxury tour bus. In my tequila haze, I must have told him about my road trip—and my unrequited crush. Now he’s insisting we had a deal.

Did I really agree to travel across the country with a hot, cocky devil? Even worse, did I also agree to let him give me “lessons” on how to seduce a man, after I admitted I have zero experience? How mortifying.

Turns out Colton Maddox is maddeningly persuasive. He showers me with luxurious gifts and takes me to all the hot spots on my wish list. He’s also an exceptionally good teacher. His “lessons” are…life-changing. As we get closer to L.A., the insufferably sexy billionaire is starting to convince me that maybe, all along, I’ve been holding out for the wrong man...

Billionaire Devil is a steamy billionaire romance in the New York Billionaires series, starring the four Maddox brothers. Each book in the series is a complete standalone with a sexy fairy tale HEA.

👩‍❤️‍👩 Forced proximity

Blurb:

The last person I expected to run into when I moved back home was my ex-wife, Tully Cassio—my high school sweetheart, the love of my life, the woman I hated as much as I still loved. She dumped me nineteen years ago and moved to Hollywood, quickly becoming a star and leaving our marriage in the dust.

My dad’s last wish included me moving back home and joining the local fire department. I agreed, mostly to be there to take care of Mom. But apparently, I’m not the only one back in Blueball, and now I’m somehow working with Tully on the fundraiser needed to keep the fire station open and me in a job.

On the one hand, seeing her again is everything I’ve ever wanted. On the other hand, I’ve harbored a lot of anger toward her over the years. After all, she damaged my pride and took my heart with her when she left town. She’s still a gorgeous spitfire, however, and doesn’t take my snarky comments lying down. Which means our fights start with a tiny spark of leftover attraction and billow into an inferno of feelings and frustration and…well…other F-words.

Instead of dumping water on this situation, we let it burn. In secret. Except nothing in a small town stays a secret for long. Soon everyone knows that the crush I’ve had on this woman since freshman year of high school hasn’t gone away just because she handed me divorce papers. Now my pride’s on the line again…along with my heart.

Because this town has always been too small for Tully, and her agent just called with the offer of a lifetime.

Nothing could change him for the better. Save, perhaps, her.

Seductive as a deadly sin, Lucien Wrenn, the Duke of Luhst, can tempt any lady into his bed. But his best friend’s little sister—bluestocking scientist Lady Chasity Perrin—is forbidden fruit. And he’s spent a lifetime aching to take a bite.

Chastity has always loved Lucien but the thoughtful boy she cherished grew into a careless rogue. Content with her lot as a spinster, she fights to advance her medical research in a world that denies women's place in science.

They can never be together until they clash in a heated argument and make a scandalous wager… During a month-long house party, both must do the impossible: sinful Lucien must remain celibate and wallflower Chastity must secure a marriage proposal.

When every eligible bachelor begins to compete for made-over Chastity, Lucien burns to claim her as his own.

As summer storm traps them, no vow of friendship can hold him back from breaking every rule to possess her.

As they grow closer -- body and soul -- his touch unravels her and she begins to crave something very dangerous: him. For the first time, someone sees straight to his wounded soul, and makes him want to be worthy of the only woman he loved his whole life.

But when Chastity's older brother learns his sister has been compromised, all hell breaks loose.

Blurb:

What does one do when they completely blow an interview?

If you're me, you pick up a one-night stand with the most gorgeous man you've ever seen… 

That's right, after a lousy interview that could have changed everything for me, I headed over to the local small town bar to sulk when the one man I shouldn't want walked in. And when my friend convinced me to take him back to my hotel room, I didn't think about it, I just did it . . . well, I did him.

It was an unforgettable night, but I didn't stay for breakfast. Instead, I got out of there and tried not to think about him again.

Everything was fine until I received a call from the interviewer saying I got the job as the assistant baseball coach at Almond Bay High. I'd be working directly under the one and only Ryland Rowley--my one-night stand. 

Now, I'm not only working with him but renting the apartment above his garage. And I have to deal with the fact that he's the man I dream about and can't have while not letting my attraction get in the way of keeping the harmony between us. Sounds easy, doesn't it?

It should have been, except the plan falls apart when my shower breaks, and night after night I have to slip into his house to use the bathroom only to find him in the kitchen, staring me down with those hungry, single dad eyes.

But she keeps invading my every thought. Being stuck in the same house, I’m not sure how much longer I can keep resisting my best friend’s little sister.

My One & Goalie by kara Kendrick


He’s the bad boy of professional hockey.
She’s a struggling single mom.
What neither of them sees coming is each other.

I have a reputation—and it’s not a good one. I’m a fighter on the ice, a player in the sheets, and apparently that’s more trouble than my coach wants on his team.

After one too many run-ins with the press, my agent sends me to small-town Starlight Bay to rehab my image. A few well-placed articles and photo ops of me coaching a youth hockey team should get me back in everyone’s good graces quickly. Then I can leave this sleepy town behind for good.

What I don’t count on is falling hard for struggling single mom Rachel. She’s smart, funny, wildly gorgeous—and doesn’t even know it. And the bonus point? Her kid’s got real talent on the ice.

I shouldn’t shoot my shot with a single mom, but I can’t help myself. One night of red-hot passion leaves me wanting more, so much more. For the first time, there’s more to my life than hockey. Now I want a chance at forever with Rachel and her son.

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!
