Release Blitz & Review - SECOND CHANCE SPARK by Kait Flynn

SECOND CHANCE SPARK
Kait Flynn

Release Date: August 29

Available in Kindle Unlimited



Some sparks are worth the burn. Even when you know better.

I didn’t expect the emergency call to take me to Doc Holliday’s. Didn’t expect her, either.

Gillian Holliday—sharp-tongued, impossible to ignore, and the woman I haven’t stopped thinking about since the day she left Huckleberry Creek.

Now she’s back. Temporarily, she says. Just here to help her family.

But this town is small. Too small to avoid the past. And when her world starts colliding with mine all over again—at the station, at the bar, across every damn corner of this town—I’m reminded exactly how good we were together.

And how bad it hurt when it all went sideways.

We’re older now. Wiser, maybe. But the spark? Yeah, that part’s still dangerous.

Piper Dawson is trying to figure out her life. After recently graduating from art school, she’s crashing at her mom’s house and rethinking all her decisions.

What starts as a hunt for Piper’s aunt’s necklace, soon turns into Kasen agreeing to give the relationship clueless Piper dating lessons. There’s only one problem. The more time Kasen spends with Piper, the more he doesn’t want to stop helping her as a “practice” boyfriend.

Piper knows there’s more to Kasen than he’s willing to share. She wishes their relationship could be real. She also wishes she could stay and spend more time with all the new friends that she’s made in the building. But her time is running out. She’s already agreed to stay with her dad.

Will the secretive Kasen let himself finally find romance with the unlikely woman who fell into his world and stole his heart, or will Piper leave before they both realize what was pretend to begin with turned into something very real?

Release Blitz & Review - RULEBREAKER by Kat Mizera & Elise Faber

RULEBREAKER
Kat Mizera & Elise Faber

Release Date: August 25



She’s everything I shouldn’t want.

But that’s never stopped me before.

I didn’t become a billionaire before the age of thirty by playing it safe. I’m a risk-taker…except when it comes to matters of the heart.

Until Lily.

The pop phenom is all legs and curves, with a boisterous laugh and a wicked sense of humor—everything that drives me crazy. She drives me crazy.

But the more we butt heads, the more I crave the sound of her voice…the feel of her body against mine.

Except I’m positive she’s hiding something from me. Something big.

I let someone else keep secrets once—I won’t allow that again.

She’s mine.

And I won’t stop until she knows it.

Release Blitz - HERO EVER AFTER by Kait Nolan

HERO EVER AFTER
Kait Nolan

Release Date: August 22



I never meant to be anyone’s heroine.

Not when I became the acting mayor of my hometown after the flood. Not when I kept my law practice afloat out of a booth in my grandmother’s diner. And definitely not when my secret romantasy novels went viral.

Nobody in Gibson Hollow knows I’m the author behind the pen name. And nobody was supposed to kiss me at that book convention—least of all my brother’s best friend, cosplaying the hero he doesn’t know I modeled after him.

Now Ramsey Shaw is back in town. Volunteering. Smiling at me like I’m not on the verge of shattering. Like he remembers the kiss. Like he sees the truth.

I’ve spent my whole life being strong. Quiet. In control. But for the first time, I don’t want to be any of those things.
I just want to be his.

In a town held together by hope and heart, it’s the people who show up that make it shine.

Release Blitz - SUBMITTING TO DADDY by J.L. Quick


Submitting to Daddy by J.L. Quick is now live!



CILLIAN

We didn’t inherit this city—we took it. Power like this doesn’t come without blood, secrets, and enemies. The FBI is circling, the walls are closing in, and this is the worst possible time to lose focus. Especially for her.

Madison Roark wasn’t supposed to be anything more than a one-night escape—just a beautiful distraction I’d forget the next morning. But I keep seeing her–everywhere. In my thoughts and slipping into the dark corners of my world like she belongs there. I can’t stop craving her—even when nothing about her adds up. Perfection like that comes with a price, and I can feel it—she’s hiding something.

MADISON

A new city. A fresh start. A new life. After graduation, I swore I’d stay away from anything that could expose me. But then he happened—Cillian O’Brien. I should’ve run the second he looked at me like he owned me. Instead, I crossed a line I can’t uncross—letting him be my Daddy.

Now I’m tangled in something dangerous—deep in his world and falling hard for him among a web of lies. But if he ever finds out who I really am… loving him won’t save me. It might just get me killed.

When lies run deep and loyalty cuts like a knife, someone always pays the price—and this truth could bring an empire to its knees.

Release Blitz - WICKED ENDS by Mila Kane


Wicked Ends by Mila Kane is now live!



My class... His rules.
Hade Harbor was supposed to be my clean slate--a quiet, hockey-obsessed Maine town where I could disappear.
Then I walked into my first lecture and saw him.
The bartender from last night.
The one I should've never touched.
Marcus Bailey isn't just another college jock--he's an Ice God.
Goalie for the Hellions. Arrogant. Vicious. Addicted to winning.
And now? He's set his sights on me.
He's not interested in boundaries. Not when he could break them.
Not when he could break me.
He could have me fired. Exposed. Ruined.
And he knows it.
Every rule I make, he shatters.
Every line I draw, he crosses.
Because Marcus doesn't want obedience. He wants obsession.
And I'm exactly what he craves.
But my past isn't finished with me.
It's dangerous, it's catching up, and when it hits--I won't be the only one destroyed.

Release Blitz & Review - THIS MEMORY by Kelly Elliott



This Memory by Kelly Elliott is now live!



I've been in love with Gavin since high school. He broke my heart back then, something I'm not keen to forget, which makes our current situation challenging. Our best friends are married, and we're constantly thrown together because of that connection. When those same friends ask me for a favor, one that is life-changing for all of us, I don't even question how close it will bring me to Gavin. I simply say yes.

I'm not sure what I did to turn Brystol against me, but whatever it was, I'm ready to make amends. I might even tell her that she was all I could see back in high school. When our best friends ask Brystol to be their surrogate, I have mixed feelings, to say the least. Nothing will keep me from supporting her in every way possible because among those feelings are admiration and love for the kind girl, I used to know...and even more for the woman she's become.

Neither of us were prepared for the trials and tribulations that come with not just pregnancy but the surrogacy process--including the strain it can put on everyone involved. Nor could we predict the powerful emotions or the sheer joy of growing a life. There is no way we could have predicted the heartache that would follow.

4.5 Stars

I love Moose Village, I think I could move there myself. That wonderful small town feel, where everyone knows everyone.

An emotional second chance that is fast paced, full of witty banter, friendship and love, but some very difficult decisions as well. It is far from smooth sailing but so worth the read. I couldn't put it down.

I definitely think the series should be read in order to get the most out of the stories as there are many interconnected characters. I am excited for the next adventure in Moose Village.

Release Date: August 15

AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED



He’s her brooding, off-limits boss. She’s his brother’s newest flame…and the weakness he’s craved for years.

She never expected to come face-to-face with Lucas Lyons—the grumpy, gorgeous CEO of the entire Lyons empire and the older brother of her long-forgotten crush.

Once upon a time, Marie had been just the invisible girl in the back of the estate kitchen. Now? She’s confident, capable, and no longer easy to ignore.

Especially not by Lucas.

He sees her now. And it’s a problem.

***

Lucas Lyons—head of the Lyons family empire, perfectionist, older brother to the man who used to make Marie’s teenage heart flutter—sees his beautiful personal chef as a complication. A distraction he doesn’t need. A girl he has no business wanting.

Especially now that his younger brother is suddenly very interested in Marie himself.

Lucas knows she’s too young. Too bold. Too tempting.

But the closer they get, the more dangerous the line between forbidden and inevitable becomes.

For a man like Lucas, giving in means losing control. And falling for Marie Zola?

Might just ruin them both.

*Boss of the Year is a Sabrina-inspired boss-employee romance that does NOT include cheating, but does include a lot of angst. If you’re not up for drama, this isn’t your cup of tea.

4.5 Stars

A new series in Willow Brook Alaska, count me in. This is a grumpy/sunshine story with firefighter Haven Silver, single dad and Elsa Whitney who is moving back to town after being gone for a while.

Haven and Elsa have a quick connection and a obvious chemistry between them from the very beginning. Haven is trying to be nice and welcoming upon Elsa's return. Even offers her a place to stay while she gets on her feet and works towards rebuilding on her families neighboring property.

Little Tommy and his rescue goats are a solid part of the entertainment of the book. 

A book I enjoyed from the first chapters. A solid round of secondary characters I can't wait to get their own stories.
