Release Blitz & Review - RYE by Heidi McLaughlin

 

Title: Rye (Nashville Nights, #2) 
Author: Heidi McLaughlin 

Genre: Rocker Romance 
Release Date: December 2, 2025 
Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC. 

She's sworn off musicians. He's a rock star trying to go country. What could go wrong?

Darian Mercer’s rock career crashed and burned with his band Reverend Sister. Now he’s hiding out in Nashville, playing dive bars and trying to forget everything that went wrong. The last place he expects to find his next song is at The Songbird, where venue owner Rye Hayes has spent three years keeping other people’s dreams alive while burying her own. 

Rye doesn’t perform anymore. She books acts, pours drinks, and raises her ten-year-old daughter. When Darian takes her unfinished melody and turns it into something she couldn’t write herself, she’s pissed. She’s also intrigued. 

Their collaboration starts as one song, one session. But music has a way of breaking down walls neither of them meant to build. When Darian’s past catches up and the industry comes knocking, they’ll have to decide what matters more: playing it safe or taking the risk that could destroy them both. 

Some songs are worth the fight. Some aren’t.

5 Stars

It's been a minute since I have read a book that drew me in and really made me want to ignore the world around me. This second chance story is heartbreaking, soul searching and the fear to try again it bleeds off the pages.

Darian has found his way to Nashville for a new start, still reeling after the breakup of his band Reverand Sister, but he needs to start somewhere. This will bring him closer to his sister and her family. Music is just as much the heart of Nashville as it is LA so his second love will still be close. Unsure of what is next, but taking slow small steps.

Rye has put all she has into running the Songbird for the past 3 years. Giving these musicians a place to give voice to their songs. Though she has closed that part of herself off so deep it might never surface again. When her 10 year old daughter starts to plant the seeds, slowly finding her love for music, the natural understanding and building of a bridge, she might not be able to hid it any longer.

When Darian finds the Songbird and watches Rye from across the room, the connection is there strong and meaningful. But he represents everything she swore she would never let in again. Will Darian be able to break down her walls? Will his calm presence be what is needed to get her to open up and give love a try again? Could their draw and chemistry be what is needed to bring the music alive again?

Grab your copy and let the notes and bridges draw you in to this beautiful slow burn, healing and opening of the souls.

Friends to Lovers/Return to Hometown

Release Date: December 2, 2025

Joy

I’m living my dream. Owning a cozy little bakery in downtown Snowflake Falls is everything I ever wanted. Even though the holidays are a hectic time of year, there’s nothing better than the feel of Christmas mixed with a bit of sugar.

When an unexpected visitor drops by to say hello, my entire world shifts on its axis. Burk Whitman was my best friend until, right before our first year of high school, he unexpectedly moved away. Now, he’s back in town and being around him isn’t exactly a hardship. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.

The problem is, his time here is temporary and if I’m not careful, I risk losing my heart forever.

Burk

One phone call is all it takes for me to come back to Snowflake Falls. With my gramps in the hospital, a huge void is left at my family’s Christmas tree farm during their busiest time of year. Being here after fourteen years might be just what the doctor ordered.

When I hear my oldest friend, Joy Campbell, owns the bakery in town, I have to drop by to say hello. I’m ready to fall back into the familiar banter we once engaged in, but what I’m not expecting is to come face-to-face with the most beautiful woman in the world. Spending time with her isn’t a hardship, and soon, lines begin to blur.

How will I return to the East Coast when everything I didn’t realize I wanted is right where I left it in Snowflake Falls?

Release Blitz - OVER THE EDGE by Kat Mizera

OVER THE EDGE

Kat Mizera

Release Date: December 1

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

As the rhythm guitarist for Crimson Edge, while my bandmates chase the spotlight, I stick to the shadows. Keeping the beat, keeping out of trouble, and keeping my heart off-limits.

At least, that was the plan… until our tour bus broke down in the middle of nowhere.

She’s a no-nonsense waitress who couldn’t care less about fame, doesn’t recognize me, and definitely doesn’t fall for my smooth lines. She calls me out and flips my world on its axis with nothing more than a look and a cup of coffee.

Two unforgettable days. One reckless night. And then the tour moves on.

I figured that was the end of it… until she calls with two life-altering words: I’m pregnant.

Now everything’s changed. I thought I knew what I wanted—music, freedom, no attachments. But she’s in my head, under my skin, and carrying the one thing that could break me wide open.

This isn’t about the band anymore.

This is about her.

Our baby.

And the man I want to become.

Release Blitz & Review - CHECKING IT TWICE by Kendall Ryan

Fake dating a hockey player for Christmas wasn’t on my bingo card.

Clare Johnson’s job is handling PR for the Dallas Stampede—not getting tangled up with one of the players. But when Mitchell Drake—charming forward, fan favorite, and very off-limits—asks her to pose as his girlfriend for one week in small-town Minnesota, she reluctantly agrees. What’s the worst that could happen?

Mitchell’s had six months to get over his very public broken engagement, and his family is done waiting. The last thing he needs is pitying smiles and whispered gossip. Clare is smart, sharp, and strong enough to hold her own with both fans and family—the perfect fake girlfriend.

But holiday lights and snowy nights have a way of blurring the line between pretend and real. Clare fits too easily into his world—bonding with his grandma, winning at pond hockey, and looking unfairly good in his flannel. The more time they spend together, the less fake it feels.

Full of small-town holiday magic, meddling relatives, and sizzling chemistry, Checking It Twice is a hockey romance about second chances and falling in love when you least expect it. Perfect for fans of fake dating, one-bed tension, forced proximity, and happily-ever-afters wrapped in Christmas lights.

Because sometimes the best gifts aren’t under the tree—they’re standing right in front of you.
