Wild Card by Piper Rayne


Getting pregnant after a one-night stand with my brother’s best friend was never part of the plan.


We’re talking about Foster Davis here.


Chicago Colts closing pitcher.

The broody king of one-word answers.

And the man everyone knows keeps one foot out the door.


Surprisingly, when two pink lines turn my world upside down, Foster doesn’t run. He steps in, he shows up, and he insists we do this together.


Pretending we’re fine is easy. Pretending this is just about the baby? Not so much.


Because Foster is gentle when no one’s watching.

Because he looks at me like I’m something worth protecting.

Because the walls he’s built start to crack—and I’m the one he’s letting inside.


Our arrangement was supposed to be simple. Boundaries were set. Co-parents and no catching feelings.


Okay, maybe a few sex lessons were added in too. Bad idea, I know.


Because the more time I spend with Foster Davis, the harder it is to remember why I ever thought he was the risky choice.

The Wedding Scoop of the Year by J.S. Cooper

Buy Link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GC5LMLDF?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks


A grumpy billionaire stole her cupcake and then carried her out of the store like a caveman...

Meet Gina Spellman, she’s 29, recently dumped, and angry that an annoying, arrogant, too handsome man stole the last cupcake from her at her favorite coffee shop. She desperately needs at least one thing to go right in her life. When she scores the reporting job that can help her get the job of her dreams, she snaps it up...even if it means she’s going undercover at a kooky elderly couple's mansion and acting as the ghostwriter to their love story.

Meet Hunter Waverly, he’s 35, a grumpy billionaire, and back in Whisper Cove after a disastrous year and all he wants is the silence and solitude that comes with staying in the private lodge on his grandparents estate. When the bumbling, angry woman from the coffee shop suddenly appears as a new employee, he’s intrigued far more than he should be. Especially when he finds her snooping around right before a million-dollar diamond necklace goes missing.

Hunter decides to have some fun with Gina before he reports her to the police and allows her to locate the missing necklace by the end of the summer. But, only if she pretends to be his girlfriend to stop the press from harassing him. Little does he know that she’s at the mansion trying to get a story on him. Little does she know that the scoop she’s chasing could mean choosing between her career and her heart.

Fight for Us by Emily Silver

Read in KU : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FVYHJVQ2?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks 


The love of my life left our small town without a second glance. What he didn’t know? I had a secret of my own.

I created a life for myself and my daughter in Pinecrest with someone who was supposed to take care of us. But all he wanted was my father’s company. He didn’t care about us. So I left.

When tragedy strikes and my first love comes back to town, I’m thrown for a loop. And I’m not the only one.

When he discovers the truth about my daughter, he does what’s needed to stick around.

For our daughter.

But I can’t ignore the chemistry still there between us. It never left. I want him more than anything. But if he leaves town again, I don’t know if I’ll be able to recover.

Will we be able to move on from the past? Will my ex let us go?

Only if Kade has what it takes to fight for us…

Faking Cinderella by Pippa Grant


Read in KU: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GDMYGSYN?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_2&storeType=ebooks


A grumpy former bodyguard, an heiress in disguise, and an accidental roommate situation…

If I’d known a tall, broad mountain of a man would crash the one-bedroom cabin I’m borrowing, I might have handled things differently.

I still would’ve lied to him. He doesn’t need to know all of my reasons for wanting to meet my surprise triplet half brothers while undercover as a housekeeper.

But if I’d known I was going to have a surprise roommate, I wouldn’t have rigged a homemade security system in the cabin that left him…erm… Let’s just call it easy to spot in a crowd.

And he wouldn’t have tried to blackmail me when he figured out my real identity.

And I wouldn’t have been so attracted to his audacity that I started looking deeper at the wounded man beneath the gruff exterior.

And then we wouldn’t be here, with him making me scream his name for all of the good reasons every night.

But I can’t keep faking Cinderella forever, and when it’s time for me to come clean, he’ll have to choose—loyalty to my half brothers or belief in me and the noble reason for the long game I’ve been playing.

Faking Cinderella is a swoony romcom featuring a mountain of a man with an even bigger wounded heart and an heiress determined to right a wrong. This opposites attract, secret identity romance stands alone and comes with a sweetly satisfying happily ever after.

The Heir by Elodie Hart


Read in Kindle Unlimited: 
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0F9SN5DB8?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks


For nine hundred years, the Dukes of Oxford have served three masters: the crown, our title, and our estate, Belvedere.

Love? That's not in the De Vere family playbook.

Passion? Reserved strictly for producing heirs.

We marry for duty, bed for bloodlines, and keep our desires locked away like the family silver.

As heir to the dukedom, I've perfected the art of noble restraint. My engagement to a beautiful, blue-blooded ice queen has been set in stone since birth. I've never questioned it—never even wanted to.

Until Ivy Cooper explodes into my grey, duty bound existence, flooding it with colour and chaos.

She's everything I shouldn't want: a potty-mouthed commoner who scoffs at my title and makes Eliza Doolittle look refined. She works at London's most exclusive sex club, guards secrets darker than my family's dungeons, and has zero respect for the duties that define me.

She's also the most magnificent creature I've ever encountered.

One taste of her, and I'm completely undone. When I'm in her orbit, the repressed heir disappears, replaced by a lovesick fool who would burn down nine centuries of tradition for the chance of a future with her.

Now I'm facing an impossible choice: the title that's been my destiny since birth, or the woman who's become my salvation.

I've served my masters faithfully my entire life.

But Ivy Cooper makes me want to become a traitor.

The Heir is a steamy opposites-attract contemporary romance featuring a real life duke and a great big HEA.

Mistakes Were Made by Lucy Score


Read in Kindle Unlimited: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0F2YT1MFS?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_1&storeType=ebooks&qid=1771453446&sr=1-3

A Gilmore Girls meets Schitt’s Creek redemption romcom.

He’s looking for the perfect wife. She’s looking for the perfect one-night stand.

Literary agent Zoey Moody has been exiled from the Manhattan publishing scene to small-town Pennsylvania with her best friend and only remaining client, romance novelist Hazel Hart. Zoey’s bank account is running on fumes, forcing her to liquidate her designer wardrobe to make ends meet.

But this plucky heroine has a plan to climb her way back on top. 
Nothing will stand in her way.

Okay. Nothing 
except her six-foot-two-inch blue-collar landlord, Gage Bishop. He’s smart, serious, and sexy. When he isn’t practicing law, he’s working with his equally attractive brothers in the family construction business. Worst of all, he’s ready to settle down.

Zoey might be the most beautiful, infuriating woman Gage has ever met, but her special brand of chaos makes it clear they’re all wrong for each other. She’s allergic to commitment and afraid of animals. He’s looking for a wife and lives in a literal barn. (For clarification, it’s a converted barn. But he does live there with a golden retriever who doesn’t understand the concept of personal space.)

These opposites can attract all they want. They both know it will never work out. For one, even if she wanted to, Zoey could never give him what he wants.

But when Gage’s world is rocked by a devastating family secret, he turns to Zoey for one night to forget everything. That one night just might change everything…or ruin it. Yeah. That’s more likely.

Heavens To Betsy by Marika Ray


Read in Kindle Unlimited:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GNNSVG8M?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks


The nicest Mr. Nice Guy of Heaven, Mississippi meets his match in a scowling city girl who becomes his only hope at saving the family boutique—and heavens to Betsy, no one is ready for the fallout.


Day one in town, I face-plant into a clothing rack at the upscale boutique I now work at. Even worse is finding out my new boss, Silas Winthrop, is the same guy I flipped off in traffic this morning.

You’d think day two would be better, but Silas doesn’t seem capable of holding a grudge. In fact, he keeps smiling at me and it’s starting to creep me out. Normal people aren’t that happy.

I quit, of course, but Silas lures me back with a huge bonus if I can save his boutique from closing. He keeps his late mother’s shop in the black, I help Nana pay off her house. Even the angels would call it a fair deal.

The only complication? Silas is gorgeous. Ridiculously kind. And somehow still attractive despite owning a frat-boy polo shirt in every color. I’m not the sweet Southern debutante he should want…but heaven help me, he wants me anyway.

So we strike another bargain—this one strictly no strings, just chemistry.

Heaven only knows if it’ll all work out…

Heavens to Betsy is a swoony, laugh-out-loud reverse grumpy/sunshine rom-com featuring an angel of a nice guy trying to make everyone happy except himself, a perennially grumpy newcomer who blows into town like a storm cloud, and a chorus of hilarious side characters who sprinkle their heavenly charm. This fish-out-of-water, opposites-attract, workplace romance proves that sometimes love needs a little divine intervention. Sweet, funny, and utterly satisfying, it delivers a happily ever after that feels positively blessed.

It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time by Lauren Blakely


He ghosted me once, now he’s supposed to protect me?

I don’t need a bodyguard—I run a small-town lavender farm, for bee’s sake. But when my identical twin sister lands the movie role of a lifetime that’s being shot in my hometown I get one anyway.

And guess which broody, tattooed protector the studio sends to keep the paparazzi off my porch?

Last month’s almost one-night stand.

The guy with the wicked mouth and heated eyes who slipped out before the fun even started. But turns out the sexy jerk is excellent at rescuing me from sneaky photographers at the market. Then the coffee shop. I’m trying hard to stay mad after the third time my new bodyguard saves me.

To top it all off, he’s staying in the cottage at my farm. With me. And there’s only one bed.

Maybe if we finally give in and finish what we started, it’ll relieve the tension? But one night quickly turns into another. Then into late-night secrets and soft confessions we shouldn’t say out loud. Especially since he’s leaving and I’m staying, and there’s no way we can be more than a summer romance that ends far too soon.

Escape into a spicy and hilarious forbidden small town rom com from #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely!

The Unbreaking of a Heart by Annie Dyer


Read in Kindle Unlimited: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FZCW2V41?ref=author_qv_ov_kndl_dp_rw 


Her first love. Her first heartbreak. The boy who promised her forever is back… with a ring on someone else’s finger.

Rose Callaghan knows better than to believe in fairytales. Not after everything. Not after the heart that failed her, the love that left her, and the future that shattered before it ever began.

But once, there was a boy.
Carter Reeves.
Her best friend. Her first kiss. The only person who ever made her believe in more.

They were inseparable as kids — bound by secrets, by hope, by the surgery that saved her life and the long, quiet summers that followed. Time and distance pulled them apart, like it does with so many childhood things. But even now, a part of Rose is still wondering if the boy from her fairytales might finally become the man of her dreams.

Then Carter comes back to London.
And he’s not alone.
He’s engaged.

And Rose is about to learn the hardest truth of all — some hearts don’t break. They shatter.

This book contains no cheating and has a happily ever after. Your heart will be full at the end.
Promise.



Unbroken by Janice Whiteaker


Read in Kindle Unlimited:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FFVTQF97?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks 


I came to Willow Bend, Wyoming with nothing but the clothes on my back and a secret.

It won’t be easy hiding morning sickness and swinging emotions as the live-in chef for a wealthy tech genius, but I’ll do whatever it takes to build a life for myself and my baby.

Because I’m in this alone.

For weeks I hold my breath, waiting for the moment I come face to face with the reclusive Titus Bradshaw and have to explain my… condition.

But when our paths finally cross late one night, I discover why he’s hidden away from the world.

His scars are deep and far-reaching. A reminder of what he lost. Who he couldn’t save.

I know I should keep my distance, but Titus’s calm demeanor and steady presence draw me in. Make me want things I can’t have. Wish for a life that won’t be mine.

Because my future and his past are incompatible.

He’s been through enough. I won’t make him suffer any more.

But someone else might. Someone who’s keeping a secret of their own.

And they’ll kill to protect it.

Book reviews for books read May 3rd - May 10th

  Happy weekend!  I read two ARCs this week. They were both very different and both very good. Marika Ray's new book is going to be the perfect summer read. Take it to the lake or the beach and fully enjoy the quirky romance between Maple and Holt. I promise you will adore the meddling seniors along the way. Then I read an arc by a debut author and it knocked  my socks off. When was the last time you got a book hangover from a brand new author? Yeah, it is a rare thing but it happened to me this week.  Check my reviews and add these to your TBR. You wont be sorry. Until next time, happy reading. Anchored by Marika Ray ARC: Release Date- 05/13/2025 #FakeRelationship #ForcedProximity #SmallTown #SecondChance #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. This standalone is written in first person from an alternating dual POV and ends with a HEA. Maple (32) is having a crisis of confidence due to many factors when sh...

Book reviews for books read May 11th-25th

  I read three ARCs and 2 books from my TBR in the last 2 weeks. I feel good about that considering that life at home has been pretty full lately. May has been an excellent reading month for me. There are so many good releases right now, it is impossible for me to keep up. These are all worth adding to your TBR. Check my reviews and add them to your list. Until next time, happy reading. Built To Last (Park Avenue Promise #3) by Lexi Blake ARC: Release Date- 05/27/2025 #EnemiesToLovers #Celebrity #Workplace  #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. This is the third book in the series, and it is written in first person from Harper’s POV. This book is driven heavily by dialogue, and I personally did not miss having the male POV. Though it fully contains the love story of Harper and Reid, I think readers will gain the most value from reading this series in order. The friendship and found family relationship between Ivy, ...

Book reviews for books read April 27th- May 3rd

  Happy weekend! I got a little behind as far as month end wrap up goes but I did read four ARCs this week.  They were all just what I needed. A hockey romance with close proximity, a billionaire surprise pregnancy, an erotic romance with emotional depth, and a reclusive rock star with a heavy side of treasure hunt: they made my week a happy one. Check out my reviews and add these to your TBR. Until next time, happy reading. The Playmaker (Nashville Knights Hockey #2)  by Emily Silver ARC: Release Date 05/02/2025 #SingleDad #Sports #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. The Playmaker is written in first person from an alternating dual POV. As the second book in an interconnected series the story stands alone and ends with a HEA. Because characters from book one do play integral roles in Stevie and Bode's story, some readers may want to read book one first even though it is not necessary for the plot of book two...
