Combust by Laramie Briscoe is now live!



From USA Today and WSJ Bestselling author Laramie Briscoe comes the next book in the Bradford Station Series!

The heat is on.

Situated on the Tennessee and North Carolina border, this town is nothing like you've ever experienced. Hot guys, the women they love, and a town worth saving. Bradford, TN is the epicenter of the next great romance dynasty.

Firefighters, family, and community...


Cameron Hines

I take my job very seriously. Both of them. I'm a Lieutenant at Bradford Station Company One, and I'm a single dad to a little girl who completely brightens my world.

It's not easy, holding it all together, but I do my best. Honestly, I wouldn't be doing as well as I am without my best friend's sister. Natalie treats my daughter like her own, and watches her for me without complaint.

Things are status quo until one day I see her in a different light. She quits being the babysitter, and becomes a woman. One I'll do anything for.

When her brother finds out all bets are off, and I have to answer for my indiscretions. He and I are sent out on a mission to find a lost child in the woods. We have to bury the hatchet and do our jobs, but when the worst happens, we have to make a decision that neither of us ever imagined.

My rifle is an extension of me.
I am the bullet.
I am a Hunter of Gunmen.

I was born a protector and I'd die that way.
Leaving the military didn't change that. It's why I started my business, Owens Protective Services.
My men are my family, my brothers.
And the people I protect are my mission.
As for the tangos...sometimes you have to flush the toilet of humanity.

But even when protecting clients, I've never put myself on the line for anyone like I have for her.
Beth.
She keeps her secrets close to the vest, much like I keep my emotions.
I've always been able to compartmentalize a job, but with her, everything's out of control. I can't decide if I can trust her or not, especially when she stumbles into the middle of a job. She seems innocent, but aren't they always?

I see the scared woman backing away from anyone that comes near her. I see the urge to run. But I also see the kitten with claws, ready to come out fighting if anyone dares come after her.

Deep down, I know she's my destiny.
My reason for fighting.
I will uncover her secrets, and then I'll do my job, taking out anyone that dares threaten her.

Release Blitz & Review - AFTER WE FALL by J.H. Croix

 


Release Date: August 30


A swoon-worthy, small town romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

 

✔️We’re roommates.

✔️We work together.

✔️She’s my friend’s little sister.

<✔️I want her anyway.



I made a deal with Harley Jackson. We’d burn that fire between us to ashes with a few nights between the sheets. Friends with benefits, but with a time limit. It turned out to be colossally stupid.

 

A few nights together only made the fire burn hotter. I was never supposed to fall for her.

 

>Grant & Harley’s story is perfect for readers who love small town romance, daring pilots, sassy heroines, roommates who can’t get enough of each other, slow burn, emotional romance with a dash of angst, oozing with swoon, and one smokin’ hot protective hero.

Release Blitz & Review - MY FAKE FIANCE by Piper Rayne

 

My Fake Fiancé by Piper Rayne is now live!

I never felt truly desired by a man—until him.

My sisters are always the ones who catch a guy's eye at first sight. I'm used to attracting guys because I'm funny, or kind, or have a beautiful face. Never has my curvy figure drawn the attention of a man as hot as Noah.

But the second he stepped foot into my small town Alaskan inn, his gaze swept over me with desire, igniting a flame I thought was dead. He flirted with me, and I might've left two chocolates on his pillow at turndown, but that's where it stayed.

Over the years, he's floated in and out of town while a friendship developed between us. Which is probably for the best because I'm not a one-night stand kind of woman.

Which is funny because when he propositions me to be his fake fiancé in order to end a family feud, it turns out I am the kind of woman willing to pretend to be the one he's in love with.

I thought after years of working in close proximity maybe, just maybe, we would finally cross that line. But almost kisses don't count, not even off the clock.
 
I wish he wasn't so closed off, so he could see what I see.
 
He may be a broken player... but his damaged heart is definitely worth saving.

Falling in love again is not an option. Keep my distance... that's the rule.
 
Running The Firken and working as a personal trainer is all I have room for in my life.
 
Night after night I watch Blossom turn down guys. And every damn time I'm relieved.
 
She's smart, beautiful, and something about her makes me want to protect her. Even if that means from me.
 
After years of fighting my feelings we became friends, until I ruined things by pushing her away and into the arms of another man.
 
I need to pull it together or risk losing the best thing that's happened to me since my life came crashing down.

Blog Tour & Review - TRUE NORTH by JB Salsbury

 

Choosing her may ruin his life.
But he doesn’t want a life without her.

True North, an all new forbidden, workplace contemporary romance from New York Times bestselling author JB Salsbury is now available!

The North name is a heavy burden. Two things I learned young—the best way to keep my head on is to keep my head down, and… never fall in love.
But I’m a sucker for a damsel in distress.

Lillian came into my life swinging. Mistaking me for my abusive twin brother, she greets me with a swift kick to the balls and a busted lip. Then she really shakes up my world.

She needs her job, but she needs a break just as much. And nothing silences my demons as efficiently as playing the hero.

To protect her from my jerk twin—her boss—I take her on a business trip and quickly learn that she’s different. Blunt. Honest. Intriguingly strange. I’m transfixed, so when she unknowingly sinks a multimillion-dollar deal, I don’t speak up. Something my family won’t forgive.

Now, I have a choice to make. I can go against my own blood and burn the North legacy to the ground, or play it safe, commit to my self-imposed rules and predestined future. Choosing her would ruin my life as I know it, but I’m starting to wonder if a life without her is worth living.
